The Reborn Wife Returns

Chapter 7 Disaster
Gong Qinglan blessed Fushen, this is a third-rank female official that Princess Yanbei begged from the Queen Mother in the palace, and married to Qi Mansion with the eldest lady, never married in her life, so she can afford her gift.

"It's just that Lan'er came at the wrong time, so I won't bother my mother's quietness. Nanny, I'll go back and take care of my mother first." Gong Qinglan knew that her physical illness was just an excuse, so she sat on the floor leisurely without being annoyed.

The skillful hot cup makes tea, and when the tea leaves sink, the buds and leaves stretch, and the water vapor on the soup noodles rises with the tea fragrance, like clouds steaming and rosy clouds.It turns into a budding lotus, and the petals bloom layer by layer, just like a dream.

The nanny, who was hiding in a corner and watching Gong Qinglan, burst into astonishment in her experienced eyes, and walked swiftly to Da Furen's room.

It was within Gong Qinglan's expectation that she wished to enter Wutong Garden. The eldest lady, her grandfather and grandmother were very generous, and she loved peonies and tea art the most.

She used to learn tea art just to please the arty Qi Shaoheng, but now it has really come in handy.Can't help but sigh: If you gain something, you lose something.Even though she entered the yard, it made Da furen even more suspicious of her intentions.

Granny Hua supported Gong Qinglan's hand as she walked carefully across the mossy stone steps and into the courtyard.Gong Qinglan watched carefully, along the way, the verandah was small and unique.The courtyard is not as luxurious and magnificent as the outside, mostly rocks and trees.On both sides of the path, there are tall green grasslands dotted with various flowers, which are very elegant and beautiful.

Gong Qinglan suddenly realized that this courtyard was the residence of the second old man's family. Later, due to property disputes, the family was divided into two, and this courtyard can be regarded as an independent portal.However, it didn't take long for the second old master to be promoted step by step, and he became a cabinet bachelor in Zhongyuan Pavilion in Beijing.The family moved to the capital, and the yard was abandoned.

Speaking of this, I have to talk about the family history of Qi Mansion.In Yanbei, it is also a century-old family with profound heritage. The generation of great-grandfather was a big landlord, and later became a merchant and started silk brocade.The family business is getting stronger and stronger, but the descendants are weak, and they are passed on in a single line.It wasn't until the great-grandfather's generation that just had two sons, the eldest grandpa Qiwang and the second grandpa Qisheng, and the population began to prosper.

The eldest lady moved in, repaired it briefly, and restored it to its former state.

"Nurse Xu, how is mother doing recently?" Gong Qinglan sincerely wanted to get close to the eldest lady.Qi Jingfeng's life is too hard, and everyone who treats him well has scheming plans.The only one who was close to him was not by his side.

"Perhaps when people have happy events, their spirits will be refreshed. I can get out of bed and walk around in the past two days, and my appetite has also increased." Xu Niang looked at Gong Qinglan, and her skin was pink and white with her long dress of golden begonia flowers and luan tail.Under the two curved willow eyebrows, a pair of phoenix eyes are vivid and vivid.The corners of the slightly closed cherry lips are condensed into a smile, just looking at it is joyous.

She has a gentle and calm temperament, not as unsteady as the rumors outside.Without the consent of the parents, it is convenient for the outsider to decide for life privately.

The smile deepened a bit, and with a respectful demeanor, he asked Gong Qinglan to sit on the kang neither humble nor overbearing. "I'm going to invite my wife right now, old man."

"Nurse Xu, don't disturb mother. I can save it, you go ahead." Gong Qinglan didn't get on the kang, but picked up the east chair and sat down.Seeing this, the maids in the house hurriedly offered tea.

Seeing her being so courteous, Xu Niang felt happy for Madam from the bottom of her heart, and she settled a concern in her heart.Hastily lifted the curtain and entered the inner room, and explained the matter to the eldest lady in detail.

While eating tea, Gong Qinglan looked at the room, but she was not in a hurry to hear from the eldest lady.With Da Furen's temperament, it is not bad to invite her in.When Qi Jingfeng asked to see him, he was turned away.

Considering her eldest wife, her condensed eyebrows widened. She originally thought that she was as ignorant as the rumors, knowing that the second sister-in-law arranged a marriage to rape Feng'er.But she couldn't show up, and she couldn't sleep well every day.Seeing him now, he is a clever person.

"She has put a lot of thought into it." The big lady felt a lot relieved when the stone on her heart fell to the ground.In order to meet her, I specially inquired about her preferences. Just because of this delicate thought, her character is not much different.

But, the person Xu Rong came with, could he be a good one?

After a moment of silence, he pulled out the blood jade bracelet on his wrist and stuffed it into Xu Niang's hands, which seemed to agree with Gong Qinglan. "Xu Niang, let her go back."

Xu Niang gave the things to Gong Qinglan, and Gong Qinglan took them with both hands.He brought two new cups of tea, kowtowed six times in turn, put them on the tray one by one and brought them in for Xu Niang: "Mother, my daughter-in-law and husband cannot serve your knees, which is extremely unfilial. In the future, my daughter-in-law and husband will definitely come to visit you often, Repay your kindness."

Xu Niang's eyes were moist when she heard this, and she let out a long sigh when she thought of the young master's illness and the madam's suffering.

The eldest lady was slightly moved, and she drank all the two bowls of tea: "In the future, when she comes, just let her go, and don't ask questions."

Xu Niang was overjoyed and silently recited a few words about Amitabha.

This Gong Qinglan walked out of the main room, and the lady Hua who followed her was dismissed.The servant girl in a blue beige led her through the garden and towards the side door.

"Ah!" Looking at the peony branches in Yanba in the garden, the servant girl exclaimed, with a look of panic on her face, and hurriedly looked for the scissors and the water bottle.Anxious and apologetic: "Eldest young mistress, do you know the way back? This peony is Madam's favorite flower seed. If it is broken, Madam will not be able to take a good rest and take care of the flower garden. Her body will be overwhelmed!"

Gong Qinglan's mind was moved. In her previous life, she was crazy and irritable, and it was difficult to calm down.Occasionally, in Qi Jingfeng's study, he saw potted plants that were left unattended, and he began to take care of them. Later, he fell in love with growing flowers, and specially learned from flower farmers.

After pondering for a while, Wutong Garden is purchased through another side door, which is almost isolated from the mansion, so there should not be too many calculations.I trimmed the withered flower branches with scissors, applied flower fertilizer, watered a little water, looked at the more energetic flower branches, and got up with a smile and went out.

Back at Haitang Court, before entering the house, I heard a few suppressed coughs.Gong Qinglan's face turned pale, and hurriedly lifted the hem of her skirt and ran in. Just in time, she saw Hongxiu holding a bowl of soup medicine, and said in a broken voice, "Stop!"

Before Hongxiu came back to his senses, he snatched the decoction from Hongxiu's hand, smelled the familiar smell of medicine, took a mouthful of 'plop, plop' as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and gradually calmed down.

The person who was also the second wife in the previous life brought the soup, and she personally fed Qi Jingfeng to drink it, watching him die in front of her eyes.Thinking about it now, I still have lingering fears.

The tense nerves relaxed, and cold sweat broke out from behind.He suppressed the panic in his eyes, waved his hand, and said calmly, "Go down."

Without waiting for Hongxiu to reply, Gong Qinglan opened the bead curtain and walked into the inner room, seeing him with his eyes closed and his face turned blue, his lips pale, and he was asleep.His eyes darkened, he picked up the soup and brought it to his mouth to take a sip, the strong bitter taste spread in his mouth, and his brows frowned slightly.Looking up, he saw him staring at her deeply, without blinking.
