Chapter 704: The Battle of Pingyang (2)
After Ji Pan left, Ji You blushed, faltered, twisted the handkerchief with his hands, his eyes were reddish, "Qingli, am I useless? I really don't know how to play chess, and I just learn to Won't."

"No, actually I don't know how, it might as well be as comfortable as we chat."

Qingli held Ji You's hand. It is a great tragedy in life to have such a concubine sister who can be punished. Every sentence is hidden in the inside and outside the words, either to make a stumbling block or to sow dissension. If she is really high-minded An arrogant person will definitely not make friends with Ji You.

"I'm not very good at talking, my piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are in a mess, and my father doesn't like me either."

Ji You wiped away tears, she would always quarrel with Ji Pan on weekdays, she was the one who suffered, because every time she felt that she was victorious, soon afterward, Third Aunt would gossip and sue her father, who immediately went to her study and scolded her Suddenly, when it is serious, you will drop your pen and ink, and even your mother will be implicated.Father said that women should be friendly to their siblings, how can they be as noisy as a shrew, really unlike her daughter.

Once, when San Yiniang didn't come in, when Ji You was still young, every time Dad came back, he would hold her in his arms, prick her tender face with his blue beard, teach her calligraphy, and I would proudly introduce her to others, but since when did everything change?Daddy no longer loves her, and even regards her as a shame.

"As long as you are happy, those things can't be eaten."

Mo Qingju couldn't stand it anymore, and comforted her, saying that daughters-in-law are noble, but why is it the other way around in the magistrate's house, just now when Ji Pan left, there were seven or eight maidservants behind him, the scene was quite grand, On the other hand, Ji You only had two personal servant girls.

As soon as Ji Pan left, the atmosphere immediately became more relaxed. Qingli and her cousin comforted Ji You, and the three of them talked together, sharing what they had seen and heard from Kyoto all the way north to Fengyang.

"This set is given to you by me, it can be regarded as a meeting gift for a friend."

Qingli asked the maid to bring over a box, Ji You opened it, and inside was a set of suet jade heads, hairpin rings, and bracelets, totaling more than a dozen pieces, all of which were worth a lot of money, at least a few hundred taels of silver, Ji You's eyes widened in surprise, her family is poor, she only has pocket money of two taels of silver a month, to buy some needles and thread brains, or to buy some food if she is greedy, and she also wants to reward a lot of snobbish maids, there is nothing left Now, seeing such a precious face, I am so excited that I don't know what to say.

"Qingli, but this is too precious."

Ji You gently stroked a bracelet on it with her hand. In the scorching summer, the bracelet was icy cold. Putting it on the palm of her hand, the coolness was transmitted to her heart all the time. It was really comfortable, but she endured it and closed the lid to refuse.

Ji You thought, if she has any good jewelry, as long as she wears it out, Ji Pan will come over to borrow it when she sees it, and then there will be no more. If she comes to ask for it, the corners of the concubine's eyes will turn red, and every time Daddy sees it, he will Scolding her for being stingy is not forgiving, if you don't borrow it, then things will be more complicated, and San Yiniang will also get involved, making the backyard a mess.

"You can keep it. In case you get married in the future, it can be used as a dowry and let Aunt Wei hide it for you."

Qingli is considerate of Ji You's situation. Her father is eccentric, making a concubine's daughter less honorable than a concubine's daughter. If she goes to Kyoto, she will be criticized, but Emperor Hongde didn't make a good start. Now the official family in Kyoto favors concubines There are many people who kill their wives.

"I am back!"

Outside the door, before Ji Pan entered, there was a silver bell-like smile, and Ji You didn't care about saying no to Qingli, picked up the box in a panic, and walked quickly into the inner room to hide things.

"Strange, where is my sister?"

In just a short time, Ji Pan changed into a pink dress with handmade flowers on it, which looked very playful. She pouted her red lips and put the food box on the table, "The ingredients for the back kitchen It’s not complete, only a few can be made, don’t laugh at me.”

"Here, this is jujube cake, which contains walnut kernels, pine nuts and black sesame seeds. It is delicious and not greasy, and eating black sesame seeds is very effective for black hair."

Ji Pan opened the food box, taking advantage of Ji You's absence, she had no worries, she basically ignored Mo Qingju, and kept leaning towards Qing Li, "This is shredded radish cake, made of glutinous rice, it tastes chewy If you like something sweet, you can dip it in sugar, here are sesame sticks, which are crisper."

Qingli lowered her head, Ji Pan was dexterous, she really had a knack for making dim sum, it looked exquisite in both color and shape, although it was hot, she had no appetite, she still couldn't help but taste it.

"Well, it's delicious."

Qingli prefers to eat radish cakes, this kind of cakes, her own pastry shop did not make this kind of cakes before, because it needs to be beaten with a wooden stick like a hammer, it is very laborious like beating cakes, but it tastes good and has its own characteristics.

"Really, I have done a lot, and I will take it away with you when the time comes, as a return gift."

Ji Pan pretended to have a naive expression, and clapped his hands. After a while, he changed his expression, "Actually, my aunt was from Pingyang before she married Daddy. She said that there are many high mountains around, and the terrain is also complicated. People in Pingyang It’s worse than ours, how do you think those soldiers spend the winter?”

"I heard from my father that Da Qin and Da Zhou are going to fight again. Huh, I don't know if Pingyang can hold it. I think it's okay for Major General Chunyu to fight the enemy, right?"

Ji Pan was anxious, she said several times in a row, but Qingli didn't respond, did she really understand or was she just pretending to be stupid?Generally, when it comes to her fiancé, shouldn't she say a few more words to show off, so she can understand more at this time.My aunt said that she had been away from Pingyang for many years, and she wanted to go back to visit her relatives soon. This is a great opportunity. She can make a lot of snacks and send them to the camp in Pingyang City. In the name of Qingli's friend, she might be able to meet Major General Chunyu.

"No problem at all."

The fox's tail was exposed, Qingli smiled faintly, her tone was firm, Chunyu was of course fine, and she didn't even look at whose fiancé it was, and with the powerful help of her, Daqin was nothing to the devil.

"Qingli, I really envy you. Your life is so good that you can be favored by the General Protector's Palace."

Seeing that Qingli took the bait, Ji Pan continued to lead the topic to this point. In the eyes of outsiders, she was really crazy, but if she didn't work hard, she didn't count, how could she be here today!Since the Palace of the General Protecting the Nation can take a liking to Qingli who has no status, why can't he take a liking to her?Anyway, her father is the magistrate of Fengyang, and Qingli's uncle is a fourth-rank official, who is far and who is near?
"Wrong, I was not attracted by the Palace of the General Protecting the Nation."

Qingli stood up and squinted her eyes. When she was in Kyoto before, only Yu Feier who was wishful thinking popped up and died tragically. Now Ji Pan is rushing to act as cannon fodder. He just came back to be bored, so let's play with her Play.
