The Reborn Wife Returns

Chapter 36 Being a Concubine
Qi Jingfeng pursed his lips, fingering the jade beads on the abacus casually, wondering what he was thinking.

After receiving no reply for a long time, Gong Qinglan raised her head and bumped into a pair of dark and silent eyes.

"You're angry." With a firm tone, his eyes fell on his slender and shiny hand, and the bones and veins were clearly visible, holding it strangely reassured her.

"No." Qi Jingfeng felt inexplicably dry in his heart, and spread out the ledger to continue.

Gong Qinglan twitched her lips, not knowing what to say!

"Don't settle the accounts if you're absent-minded, it's all wrong here." Her white fingers pressed down on the account book.Since we are talking about this today, many things should be explained clearly.She poked her head over and touched his arm with her cheek, and could feel his warm breath spraying on her head. "I wrote 1000 taels too much, don't you get carried away with me?"

Qi Jingfeng paused, and threw the wolf hair on the table.Looking down at her head resting on her arm, she felt that she was very noisy and weird today.His eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly said: "It's rare to have a good look."

Gong Qinglan choked and stared straight.Hearing a chuckle, his ears turned red.He suddenly tilted his head up, wanting to joke back, but his lips touched the cool and soft red lips.

Qi Jingfeng froze and froze for a moment, being touched by this sudden accident, a strange feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.

Gong Qinglan was also taken aback, his faint medicinal scent lingered in his nostrils, looked at his dull expression with wide-open phoenix eyes, and blinked.Strangely, he stuck out his tongue and licked it.

Gong Qinglan sat on the kang, embroidering patterns with a dazed expression.As if thinking of something, there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, his pink face was full of spring, and his eyes were full of water.

Hongyu and Hongyuan looked at each other, both of them didn't know what happened.Even when the eldest grandma came back, she was out of her mind like this.

Worried about something going wrong, he asked Hongxiu who followed the young mistress out of the house, but he couldn't pry a word open.

At this time, Hongxiu lifted the curtain and came in with a serious face, and handed the letter in her hand to Gong Qinglan: "Eldest young mistress, this is a letter from the son of Marquis Changning."

Gong Qinglan came back to her senses, frowned, and opened the letter.But there is only one sentence in it: Naqi Chuying is a concubine, and both grievances and grievances will be eliminated.

After pondering for a while, he lit the letter paper on the candle and threw it into the copper basin filled with fine silver charcoal. "Master is still in the study?"

Hongxiu nodded: "I'm serving with affection." There was a sour tone in his tone.

Gong Qinglan put down her needle and thread, and before she could speak, a conversation came from outside the door.

Hongjuan bowed cautiously: "Second madam, you are here. The young mistress is doing needlework, so the maidservant will let you know."

The second lady smiled and said: "We are all a family, so why be so polite."

Gong Qinglan raised her eyebrows, and people often say that they don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, let alone the second wife, presumably it's because of Qi Chuying's affairs.Putting down her needlework and was about to welcome her out, the second lady had already come in with a beaded curtain.

Gong Qinglan stepped forward to salute, the second wife hurriedly said: "Nephew and daughter-in-law, there is no need to be polite." Even though she said so, she stood still and accepted the salute.

Gong Qinglan ordered Hongyu to bring tea, and asked the second lady to sit down: "Second aunt, this is the new Junshan Yinzhen this year." Although the second lady had a smile on her face, she couldn't hide her haggardness.The second master has already carried the outer room into the mansion, and it is said that any good things he gets, he will hold on to the concubine first.The second lady's heart is small, so she couldn't see it, and she was so angry that she couldn't get out of bed.

The second lady watched the buds in the cup hanging vertically in the soup, rising to the surface of the water, sinking slowly, rising and sinking again.Three ups and three downs, it becomes an interesting concept.He took a sip and said with a smile: "That's not it, the taste is so sweet, I only got a couple of taels by chance, and asked the baby girl to honor her grandmother."

Gong Qinglan smiled, but did not answer.

The second lady's eyes dimmed, Qi Chuying honored the old lady with slightly better crude tea.She was reluctant to drink such a good tea.It's nothing more than letting this little slut talk, so she can ask for more, and borrow flowers to present Buddha.But Gong Qinglan didn't answer, so she couldn't speak directly.I had no choice but to pick up an embroidered pattern on the kang and pretend to look carefully.

"My niece and daughter-in-law are good at needlework. Look at this Clivia, which is so vividly embroidered. She is really ingenious, and she is even better than the best embroiderers in the house." The second lady praised with a smile.

Hongyu pursed her lips, the eldest and young mistress had just embroidered a branch and leaf, and the inside was not filled with color, how could she know her embroidery skills?What you said, don't you think it's annoying?
Gong Qinglan sneered in her heart, the second lady's words were stinging, reminding her that she was not filial enough, and comparing her with Xiu Niang, insinuating her low status.

"There is nothing left and right, so I poked two needles randomly. Where is the needlework of my sister-in-law? I asked the embroiderer in the teaching workshop to teach me the truth. The needlework of my niece and daughter-in-law is not enough." Gong Qinglan said lightly. Smiling dismissed.

The words 'All the truth' made the second lady's face turn pale.

The embroiderer who taught Qi Chuying how to sew in the first place is full of praise for her dexterity and extraordinary embroidery skills.The second lady moved her mind and invited the man into the house. After a short time, the embroidered lady and the second master got mixed up.After the incident, she was sold by the second wife.At that time, the second master and the second wife had a big quarrel, so the old lady sent Qi Chuying to Shangjing.

The second lady wanted to shake her hands and leave, but she held back when she thought of what would happen next.Chattering around, chatting as usual.Looking around on Hongyuan Hongyu, Gong Qinglan knew what she was going to say, so she might as well let others listen, and let Hongyuan Hongyu go out.

Hearing the sound of falling bead curtains, the second lady said slowly: "Baby is a good boy, he has never blushed with anyone, and today he took a maid to the street, but was arrested by the crown prince." He took out his handkerchief, pressed the corners of his eyes, and said with a sob: "A few days ago, Yan'er attended a banquet in the palace, and was hurt by something short-sighted. I originally wanted to go to the Palace of Yan to seek justice for her, but She cried and wiped away my tears and didn't allow me to go, for fear of ruining the relationship between the two families. One or two don't make people worry, what evil did I do!" Speaking of the sad part, the second wife covered her face and cried.Qi Chuying is her darling, if something happens, what should I do?

I couldn't help but regret in my heart, why did I call the baby to Yanbei.

Gong Qinglan's face was shocked, his face changed, and he was full of worry: "So it's true? My niece and daughter-in-law heard the news that Changning Hou Shizi didn't want to be kind, and wanted to take my sister-in-law as a concubine." But there was a sneer in her heart. The Qi family has already been torn apart, how could it be so bad?In this way, it is nothing more than calling Yan Wangfu to owe someone a favor.

Hearing this, the second lady was taken aback and turned pale with shock.

"Pa——" the teacup in his hand rolled down to the ground, as if his whole body had been drained of strength, he lay limp on the kang.

The second wife was full of resentment, and tightly grabbed the mattress on the kang.If it wasn't for that vixen, how could she have offended Prince Changning?If the baby really became a concubine...a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes!
