Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 45 Doubt
"That...was given to me by Uncle Ru Yang's eldest son." Yan Jun asked puzzledly: "Sister, he said he asked me to show you this. Say you know it."

He Jitong.. .Why do this.

Qing Huan frowned: "Did anyone see you?"

Yan Jun was startled, and hurriedly said: "No, I secretly gave it to me." After a slight pause, she said again: "Sister, is there something wrong?"

Qing Huan frowned and took the jade sachet and held it in her hand.How did this jade sachet end up in He Jitong's hands? It was because a marriage was settled, so it was returned to Uncle Ruyang's residence.But since it was returned, why did he suddenly hand it over to Jun'er? What did He Jitong want to do?Qing Huan gambled in her heart, and was made anxious by He Jitong's sudden behavior.

Did something go wrong in the middle, or was it true that Ruxia's mother said that her scheme was too rough and naive, and she was discovered.But why would He Jitong pay so much attention to the affairs of the Yan Mansion?

Qing Huan felt uneasy and bit her lips tightly.

"Sister." Yan Jun was in a hurry, and hurriedly reached out to grab the jade sachet.

"Jun'er, what are you doing?" Qing Huan scolded softly.

Yan Jun pouted, glanced at the jade sachet unhappily, and said, "This jade sachet made my sister unhappy, let's smash it. Sister..." Yan Jun hugged Qing Huan and whispered: "If I knew it, I wouldn't take it. Come here, is that person bad?"

"No." Qing Huan gently stroked Jun'er.She didn't intend to let Yan Jun know that there was something hidden behind the accidental death of her parents early on, and she didn't want her to worry that her sister's drowning was instigated by someone.Yan Jun is still young, although precocious, she is still a child.Qing Huan was really worried, if he let her slip by accident, she was fine, what would Jun'er do.

Yan Jun didn't believe it.

Qing Huan explained with a funny smile: "That man is the second sister's future husband-in-law. If this thing was given to us in front of the old lady and the eldest lady, it's fine. But it was sneaky. Didn't Xia's mother start to teach you Well. You should know that this is wrong."

"Then let's go back."

"My sister will find a way to do this, and you forget about it right away. You know, even if it's for my sister, you have to forget about it. If someone mentions this jade sachet, you just say you don't know about it. And... If the son of Uncle Ruyang talks to you again, you should avoid it, but it should not be too obvious."

"I see." Yan Jun nodded.

After the day was settled, the Yan Mansion became completely busy.

Mrs. Yan told An to go only once in the morning, and not to go to the Rongshou Hall in the evening.

Originally, Qing Huan went there a few times, but after being persuaded a few times tactfully, she stopped going.This frees up time again.

Taking advantage of the free time, Qing Huan also followed Aunt Liu and the others to become a female celebrity.The people in Yan's mansion would never think of hiring someone to teach them how to learn female celebrities. Qing Huan knew that she absolutely did not have the qualifications of other people in the mansion.Fortunately, Aunt Liu's embroidery is excellent. In the past, most of the clothes of the three siblings were made by her.

Qing Huan was also happy and leisurely. She got up early every day and followed everyone to the Rongshou Hall to pay her respects. Afterwards, she went to Bi Luo Yuan to study, and returned to her own courtyard for lunch.After the meal, I took a nap for a while, and when I woke up, I followed Aunt Liu and the others to be female celebrities.In the afternoon, Jun'er was asked to practice big characters and secretly complete the tasks assigned by Xia's mother.

Time flies so quickly, and it will be New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye.

The day before New Year's Eve, I saw a basket full of embroidery, handkerchiefs, purses, and nets.Qing Huan called Ling Lu to call Mancao in, and was going to take out the embroidery and sell it. It was the New Year's Eve, and it needed a lot of money.

"Girl, let me go this time." Ling Lu blinked and said.

"Ask Mancao about that." Qing Huan said with a smile.

Ling Lu immediately yelled, ran out, and ran back with creepers after a while.

"Girl, Mancao agrees." Linglu said happily.

Mancao also smiled and said, "The yard still needs to be cleaned, and the girl's cage needs to be moved out to tidy up. Let Linglu go, she has worked hard during this time."

Qing Huan thought about it too, and the happy Linglu also honestly followed her to do embroidery for a period of time.

Since Mancao was willing, Qing Huan nodded.

Seeing this, Ling Lu squinted her eyes and smiled.

"Let Xiacao go with you." Seeing Linglu flatten her mouth, Qing Huan said with a smile: "The embroidery shop we sold before, I heard that the price is not high. Xiacao staying in the capital must be cheaper than us I understand. You go and ask, and go with Xia Cao. Later, Jun'er and I will go to see Mother Xia."

When Linglu heard it, she understood a little bit.

Soon I went out to find Xiacao.

Xia Cao was arranging things in Yan Jun's room, after hearing Ling Lu's words, she thought about it and agreed.Then he asked Yan Jun who was practicing calligraphy: "Fourth Master, it's Chinese New Year. Do you want to bring some fun things back?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Jun said happily, "Summer grass is the best."

Xia Cao pursed her lips happily.

Xia Cao tidied up a bit, and after seeing Qing Huan, she went out of the mansion with Ling Lu with her pack.

After they left, Aunt Liu came over with a bundle.

Qing Huan took it, and asked Mancao to call Jun'er over.

Yan Jun changed her clothes, and there was a piece of black unicorn pressed jade around her waist.

Qing Huan stopped looking at the jade and walked outside.

Mama Xia had just sat down to rest in the Biluo Courtyard when she heard Dong Lian's announcement.

"Please come in Seventh Miss and Fourth Master."

Dong Lian wasn't too surprised. During these days, she could tell that Mother Xia liked Fourth Master very much.As for Seventh Girl, she was indifferent.

Before Yan Jun entered the room, she yelled loudly: "Mother Xia, I'm here to see you."

Then Qing Huan who followed in smiled helplessly.

Man Cao handed the bundle to Dong Lian: "The few clothes here are the wishes of the girl and the fourth master."

Dong Lian took it and didn't ask any further questions.

Mama Xia is leaving tomorrow, although the old lady meant to stay for another half a month.But Xia's mother said that she would go back to the princess mansion for the new year, and the old lady could only let people go back because of the situation.

Mama Xia left, and many masters and girls in the mansion gave gifts.

In comparison, the lives of Seventh Miss and Fourth Master are very shabby.Others at least gave some money as a gift, and even Miss Wu, who had always been ignored, gave a silver ticket this time.

But Xia's mother didn't accept it, so Dong Lian sent it back.

As for Miss Seven, Dong Lian turned her head to look at Mother Xia, saw that she was just smiling and pulling Fourth Master, and knew what she meant.Dong Lian put the burden aside and went to serve tea.

After Xia's mother leaves tomorrow, she will go back to the eldest wife.

"Mother Xia hasn't talked to her yet?" Qing Huan asked.

Yan Jun didn't understand and looked at Mama Xia.

Xia's mother smiled: "I haven't said it yet, I will say it before I leave tomorrow."

Qing Huan nodded.

Mother Xia took out two red envelopes from her body.

Qing Huan took a look, and hurriedly waved her hands and refused: "No need, Mama Xia. We..."

Qing Huan's eyes were slightly red, Xia's mother regarded her siblings as juniors.

Xia's mother said unhappily: "Miss Seven dislikes my identity, and it's also... No matter what I say, I'm just a servant. I really shouldn't overstep it." After saying that, she was about to take it back.

Yan Jun looked at it and quickly reached out to grab it.

Qing Huan also hurriedly said: "What does that mean?" After thinking about it, she pulled Yan Jun up and bowed her knees: "Thank you, Mama Xia."

Mother Xia is happy now.

The two received the red envelope and put it away.

"Mother Xia treats our siblings..." Qing Huan choked up and couldn't speak.If it is said that Qing Huan did borrow Xia's mother's hand again at the beginning, it was more of a calculation.

Then the relationship during this period of time has really paid for it.

Although I often made snacks and asked Yan Jun to bring them to Biluoyuan, no matter how good these things were, they couldn't compare to the black unicorn that Xia's mother gave Jun'er.People from the Princess Mansion, no matter how favored they are, they are just servants, and they can get a few such good things.In any case, Xia's mother has a sincere heart for Jun'er.

Yan Jun stayed to talk with Xia's mother, while Qing Huan went back to the yard.

After stepping into the yard, I heard the third girl's voice.

"Seventh sister, why haven't you come yet?"

The fourth girl said softly: "I think Mama Xia left them to talk."

"I don't know what to talk about with a servant." The third girl said disdainfully.Although I have been studying with Xia's mother honestly for more than two months.But the third girl still looked down on Mama Xia.

It's just a servant.

Qing Huan couldn't listen anymore, knowing that if she didn't go in again, what the third girl said next would be even worse.

"Third sister, fourth sister." Qing Huan walked into the room with a smile.

The third girl was shaking her feet boredly.

The fourth girl was sitting there, but her eyes kept looking outside the door.

As soon as Qing Huan came in, the fourth girl stood up.

"Seventh Sister."

Qing Huan was surprised for a while before hesitantly asked: "Why don't you see Fifth Sister?" Although the third girl was not on good terms with the second girl, she had a good relationship with the fourth girl.But it is rare for two people to travel alone, or a fifth girl is added.When Qing Huan was outside the door, she thought Fifth Miss was there too.

did not expect.. .Qing Huan made no secret of her surprise.

The third girl smiled triumphantly: "I said that if the fifth sister is not called, the seventh sister will definitely be surprised."

The fourth girl just smiled faintly.

"Third Sister." Qing Huan stamped her feet in embarrassment.

"Okay, it's not hard for you." The third girl then said like alms: "We just came out from the main courtyard. Only your courtyard is closer. The fourth sister said to come and sit. I didn't expect you They went to Biluoyuan."

Qing Huan understood a little.Except for the second girl's place where the girls live, the place where I moved first is the closest.Where the second girl is, the third girl is definitely not willing to go.As soon as the fourth girl said that she was here, the third girl came over halfway.

only..How could they come out of the main courtyard.

"Someone came from the eldest lady, so we came out first because it was inconvenient." Miss Si explained.

It's just that when these words came out, Qing Huan became even more confused.

There is not only one room in the main courtyard, if someone visits, the two of them need to come out.And according to the fourth girl, they just came to sit here for a while, and they still have to go back to the main courtyard.
