Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 63 A Cup of Salty Tea

Mancao quickly put down the curtain that he raised in his hands, and immediately after blessing He Jitong, he stood beside the carriage.

"See clearly?" He Jitong asked.

The soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then they realized: "Yes, yes. There is no one else on the carriage." They were not blind, and it was obvious that they were also girls from the Yan family. The people inside paid more attention to it, but I heard that the son will marry the girl from the Yan family tomorrow, so I don't know if there is any reason behind it.Of course, the most important thing is that although the carriage wasn't completely opened, I looked at all the space I could see. The person who needs to be investigated is a big man, so I can't just turn into some kind of bug and hide.

"Let's go." Comrade He Ji said.

"Yes, thank you, my lord." Mancao saluted again, and then signaled the carriage to move forward.Qing Huan checked this one, and the carriage behind it was naturally much faster.Before the soldiers could speak, the people in the carriage had already got off the carriage and moved to the side, and the curtains were also opened early.

The speed of the inspection increased, and the carriage moved in a short while, ready to set off for Yan's mansion.

Not long after, Qing Huan's carriage left the team and drove to the other side of the street.

As soon as she left the carriage line, Qing Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up at the top of the carriage.

I saw Liu Rong's limbs stretched out, pushing against the four corners of the carriage, unexpectedly using his own strength to prevent himself from falling off the top of the carriage.It's just that the wound on his body caused trouble, and his face became paler and paler.

During this process, Qing Huan worried more than once that he would not be able to hold on and fell from the top.Of course, when everyone in the carriage didn't expect it, Qing Huan once said that if this kind of thing happened, she directly said that her group was going to be threatened.But fortunately, this matter is finally over, and I will not tell others about the dark side of my heart.

After finding an excuse and the carriage was stable, Qing Huan dismissed the driver. After thinking about it, Qing Huan asked Aunt Liu to take out two ingots of silver and hand them to Liu Rong.

Liu Rong was originally unwilling to accept it, but she also knew that now she had no money in her body, not even a single copper coin.Anyway, since he owed so much kindness, Liu Rong simply accepted it.

Now that you know who the other party is, it will be convenient even if you want to repay your favor in the future.

Although Yan Jun was reluctant to let her big brother leave, she just bit her lip and didn't say much.

Liu Rong smiled gently, patted Jun'er on the head and said, "Jun'er is awesome, I can protect your sister in the future." Then she quietly left and hid in the streets and alleys.

"What's going on? Where are you girls?" At the gate of the Yan Mansion, the fourth girl's face was gloomy.

Mancao said: "Miss don't worry, go to the doctor first."

"Why don't you tell me?"

"This..." Mancao looked embarrassed, as soon as the girl's carriage passed by, the fourth girl got on the carriage directly and sent people back to Yan's mansion, but she didn't intend to wait for the girl's carriage at all.

Looking at the vines, the fourth girl probably thought of the reason, but she just waved her hands and said: "Let's wait a bit, we always want to see the old lady together."

After speaking, he got into the carriage again sullenly.From what happened yesterday to today, the fourth girl felt that she was out of breath.

Simply this time, Qing Huan didn't delay too much, and only let the fourth girl wait for a while before rushing over.When she got off the carriage, Aunt Liu was holding a few medicine bags in her hand.

Seeing this, Ling Lu quickly reached out to take it, and then supported Aunt Liu's arm.

"Second brother has already gone in. Let's go, the old lady may have been notified." The fourth girl stopped her eyes on the medicine bags and said calmly.

Qing Huan nodded.

A group of people entered Yan's mansion, passed through the Chuihua Gate, and when they passed by the courtyard where Qing Huan lived, Aunt Liu took Ling Lu to go back first.

The fourth girl just glanced lightly at this.

In Rongshou hall, only the old lady was there.

Qing Huan followed the fourth girl into the house.

The old lady asked about the situation in Ziyang Temple, and heard that in order to protect Yan Jun, Aunt Liu was bitten by a snake, so she hurriedly asked how Aunt Liu was and whether Jun'er was surprised.

Both siblings answered seriously one by one.

After talking for a while, he didn't stay longer.Qing Huan and Jun'er went back to their yard.

After a while, I heard that the fourth girl covered her face and ran out of Rongshou Hall.

Qing Huan just sighed after hearing this, no matter what the fourth girl and the old lady said.It's just that the day before the second girl leaves the cabinet, she must not let these things disturb her mind.It can be seen how much thought has been put into the marriage between the second girl and He Jitong, the eldest son of the Ruyang uncle's mansion, by the people of Yan's mansion.

After Qing Huan returned to the courtyard, she asked people to close the courtyard door, and if someone came to visit, she only asked the gatekeeper to tell her that Seventh Miss and Fourth Master were resting due to exhaustion from the exhausted journey.

Of course, the actual situation is true, but Qing Huan is more frightened by Liu Rong's affairs.Although he was calm on the surface, he was always restless in his heart.

It wasn't until the sunset that Qing Huan got up while yawning.

Because Aunt Liu was still "ill", Qing Huan had only Man Cao and Ling Lu to take care of her.After everything was ready, Qing Huan went to Rongshou Hall again, and this time she also brought Jun'er there.Tonight is the last night that the second girl is still a girl at her mother's house. Anyone who wants to come to the mansion will definitely come.

Brother and sister Qing Huan arrived a little late.

The room was already full of people, and Mrs. Yan was lying on the couch.Sitting next to her was the second girl, Yan Qianhuan, who had been locked up in the yard for many days. She was 15 years old in the past year, and she was getting slimmer and slimmer, with a pair of red phoenix eyes that looked very much like the eldest wife.

Chunzhi led people to clean up the meals on the low bed in the middle of the kang.Presumably, the old lady kept the second girl for dinner, and I have to say that the old lady really loves the second girl.

"Seventh sister, come and sit here." Qing Huan took Jun'er to sit on a small tree in a remote place, but heard the second girl calling out.

Xun Sheng looked over, but saw her smiling and beckoning.

Qing Huan wondered why the second sister suddenly called her over, and seeing that the old lady beside Ya Huan didn't seem to object, she secretly glanced at the reactions of other people in the room.

It's just that even if everyone has other thoughts in their hearts, they are still smiling at the moment.

Qing Huan had no choice but to give Xia Cao a few words in a soft voice, and then walked to the step, and sat upright with her skirts up.In this way, among the girls in the room, only Qing Huan and the second girl sat on the pit, and the others sat beside the wife, or they also sat on the twig like Qing Huan did before.It's not difficult for Qing Huan to feel a few salutes of attention, especially from the second wife.

Regarding the sudden behavior of the second girl, although Qing Huan felt strange in her heart, she still had a smile on her face.

"Old lady, my daughter-in-law sees that you are very energetic today, and your complexion is even younger. No wonder my mother only asked me how you take care of yourself last time when I saw you. My daughter-in-law looks envious today."

The old lady felt a little better after hearing this, squinted at the second wife, and said with a smile: "I haven't given you tea for the second wife, and I don't know what you are doing for raising you. Bring out the good tea you got, your second wife likes this the most."

In fact, as soon as they entered the house, Chunzhi Qiuye and the others had brought the maids to serve tea, but it was indeed not as good as the old lady's tea.

Chun Zhi hurried out of the house, and after a while showed the tea to the second wife again, and of course he did not forget to agree to give the first wife a cup.

The two wives both smiled and took it.

Qing Huan lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Seventh sister, do you want some tea?" Second girl said.

Qing Huan raised her head and stared at the teacup that the second girl handed over for a moment, thinking about whether to take it, but heard the third girl say: "Seventh sister, thank you to the second sister. This is the tea served by the future Mrs. Ordinary people can't drink it."

The third girl's words were stinging, obviously expressing her dissatisfaction with the mansion's big fanfare for the second girl's marriage.

Qing Huan vaguely heard that it seemed that Aunt Qing had been troubling the old man to find a son-in-law no less than He Jitong for the third girl these days.

This is no less than, if He Jitong's true character is ignored, there are very few of them.

However, because of this, the Eldest Master and the Eldest Wife had a lot of quarrels about the third girl's marriage, and he was about to leave the cabinet, but his parents quarreled over his concubine's marriage.The second girl has been feeling uncomfortable these days.

After the third girl finished speaking, the second girl sneered and said, "Of course, this tea is not for ordinary people to drink. Seventh sister is the serious daughter of the third wife, so what's the problem with drinking a cup of tea?"

The third girl's face turned red and white, and she couldn't help but want to speak ill at each other.

The old lady coughed a few times.

"Thank you, Second Sister." Qing Huan meekly took the tea from the second girl's hand, but she was vigilant in her heart, there must be a reason for the second girl's behavior.

Qing Huan didn't need to think too much, it must have something to do with meeting He Jitong when he came back at night.Presumably the second girl overturned the jar of vinegar, and I don't know if the person who sent the message added oil and vinegar to it, adding fuel to the fire.

Qing Huan lifted the lid of the tea, lowered her head and took a sip. When she looked up again, a look of grievance flashed across her face, but she immediately pursed her lips to thank the second girl.

All actions are seen by the people in the room.

Qing Huan made an expression on her face, but she was amused in her heart.Compared with other people in the mansion, the second girl sometimes looks a little more innocent, just like the teacup in this hand, but a lot of salt has been added, um... .It is indeed strange salty.

"Okay, okay. Your seventh sister doesn't like tea." said the old lady.

Xue Zhu stepped forward to take back the teacup in Qing Huan's hand.

Qing Huan bit her lip, looked at the old lady with aggrieved eyes, and forced a smile on her face to listen to the other people in the room.The old lady, the eldest wife, the second wife, and others just came back and forth to explain the matter of Sunrise Pavilion.

Speaking of the second girl's marriage, the second girl was already blushing, but her eyes were shining as she listened.

The other girls sat aside blushing.
