Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 561 Stunned
In the capital, Mao Tongtong sat in front of the desk and looked at the rice paper on the desk in a daze for a while without writing.

There are so many things I want to say in my heart, but I don’t know where to start.

Said that she was worried about knowing that Ba Ye was sealed outside the city?Said she was wronged by Guo Luoluo's plot?Or pretend to be nonchalant and say that everything is fine with her in the capital?
For relatives far away, it has always been customary to report good news but not bad news.Because reporting worries can not solve any problems except increase their troubles.The only advantage is probably that her emotions can be vented for a short time.

In fact, the letter from home is also the same.She and Mao Mingxuan are not at home, Mao Chengyun is still an official, and there are other things in the yamen every day.And what about Chen?There is only one person at home during the day, and I think it is lonely.

In the past, when she was at home, she would often talk with Mrs. Chen and watch her handle family affairs.When the two are together, the day seems to be easy to pass.I don't know how Chen's life has been in the past two or three years.

The letters always say that everything is fine, but is everything really fine?
It's a pity that there is neither telephone nor video in this day and age.Apart from paper letters, there is no other means of contact.

Qing Zhu and Qing Miao stood aside and did not dare to disturb, the room was quiet for a while.

After a while, Mao Tongtong sighed softly, then picked up the pen and started writing on the paper.After thinking about it, all she could write was that everything was fine.

Today's letter is not long, and it will be over in three pages.After Mao Tongtong sealed the envelope, he asked Qingzhu to give it to Xiao Xuzi in the front yard, and asked him to find someone to send it out quickly.

"Won't Gege write a letter to Lord Baylor?" Qingzhu reminded.

Mao Tongtong paused, "Master? He said he could reply within a month at most. It's almost half a month now. If I write a letter, I'm afraid he will reply as soon as he receives it. Forget it, I don't want to write any more." .”

Qingzhu didn't try to persuade her any more, she took Mao Tongtong's letter and went to the front yard.

In two days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival.Although Ba Ye is not in the mansion, Guo Luoluo will also attend the dinner in the palace.After she dressed up and entered the palace, the women in the backyard didn't bother to care about her.It was Mammy Lei who came forward to buy a table and placed it beside the waterside pavilion in the garden, saying that it was Guo Luoluo's intention to make everyone happy.

Mrs. Zhang took care of her for a while, and she was able to get out of bed and walk around a little recently, so she was accompanied by Mrs. Liu.Qi Jiashi also appeared for the first time after being punished.And Mao Tongtong, of course, had to give Guo Luoluo's face, and brought her maid.

A table with two princesses and two concubines is really not too many people.Compared with some other princes' backyards, where there are more than a dozen women at every turn, Ba Ye's backyard is really less crowded.

But few people do not mean cleanliness.In the past two or three years, things in the backyard have not been uncommon.

Although Mao Tongtong has the same status as Qi Jia's family, she entered the mansion earlier than Qi Jia's family, and was more favored than Qi Jia's family, so her status in this backyard is second only to Guo Luoluo's family.So everyone waited for her to take the table before sitting down.

Because it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, apart from some appropriate dishes on the table, there are moon cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes and stuffed sweet-scented osmanthus.

Guo Luoluo was not there, and Mao Tongtong was not a person who liked to carry it, so the expressions of the people at the table seemed less reserved.Just not much joy.

Needless to say, Qi Jiashi.I don't know if it's because I'm tired of copying the scriptures every day, I don't seem to be energetic, and even my face is a little dull.

Mrs. Zhang's complexion is a little rosier than before, which shows that she has really recovered these days.Her belly is already obvious.He was very careful when walking, and even Mrs. Liu was protecting him with a nervous expression, apparently worried about being thrown again.

"Fu Jin is not here today, let's be casual, so as not to disappoint the delicious food on this table." Mao Tongtong said with a smile.She knew that if she didn't say a word and stretched out her chopsticks first, these people might not be able to move.

Several people smiled and said hello.Seeing that Mao Tongtong picked up a dish with chopsticks, he also started to eat.

Today is a very sunny weather, and the moonlight at night is also very good.August [-]th is the time for viewing the moon, and a round and big moon hangs high in the night sky.And the water pavilion is a good place to enjoy the moon.Looking up, you can see the bright moon in the sky, and looking down, you can see the reflection of the bright moon in the lotus pond.There is a slight evening breeze blowing, driving the faint scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the air, which is very artistic.

"Some of us can recite poems, right? Such a moonlight should be arty." Mao Tongtong said suddenly.

Qi Jia's and the others were all lowering their heads to eat, and were taken aback when they heard what she said.It was Liu who reacted quickly and said: "This servant doesn't even know the words, so how can I know such elegant things. I heard that Gege has read books at home, why don't you give us a song?"

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Qi Jia also looked over together.

Mao Tongtong smiled and said: "I can read and write, but if I recite poems correctly, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it in my next life. What's so mediocre, it's a headache to hear."

"Sister Mao still knows mediocrity, so it can be seen that she has learned it before." Qi Jia said with a slight smile: "I even copy and write, and I don't know such elegant things!"

It was only then that Mao Tongtong remembered that women in ancient times believed that lack of talent was virtue.It is even worse for Manchurian women, who seldom even learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and most of them learn the way of housekeeping.

"It seems that everyone is the same. After all, I'm just an ordinary person, and I can only sigh when I see this moon, um, it's so beautiful!" Mao Tongtong couldn't help laughing as he said.

The Qi Jia family couldn't help laughing.

After such a commotion, the atmosphere was much more active than before.

During festive seasons, Mao Tongtong has fallen into a feeling of homesickness these past few days, and now he is in high spirits, so he simply said: "Would it be right to recite poems and compose? You can always drink, right? Mrs. Zhang is pregnant and can't drink. What about the two of you? How about your drinking capacity? Since Fujin hosted a banquet to make us happy, we can’t let us down, can we? Come on, let’s make punches, and losers will be punished with wine!”

"Fist?" Qi Jia was dumbfounded.

Zhang and Liu were also dumbfounded.They have never seen such a casual side of Mao Tongtong.

"You can't even punch?" Mao Tongtong frowned slightly, "Didn't you play when you were at home?"

The three shook their heads in unison, and now it was Mao Tongtong's turn to be dumbfounded.

Mao Tongtong can't care so much about this meeting.She just wanted to indulge, so she said, "Oh, it's very simple! Let me teach you! I promise you will do it with two hands!"

"This, this is not very good." Qi Jia said hesitantly.

There was light in Liu's eyes, obviously looking forward to it.She had a lively temperament before entering the palace, but later she was tempered to the point of suppressing her nature.
