Chapter 5 Greetings from the East Mansion
"It's getting late, we still have to go to the East Mansion to say hello, otherwise the old lady doesn't know what to say?" Mrs. Dong hurriedly called the servants to come in and tidy up.Ling Zhu came to Dongfu with his wife and daughter.As soon as Qi Luo arrived at the East Mansion, she felt that this family was really richer than her own. Looking at the women and girls who came and went, they were neatly dressed, and the courtyard was also full of flowers.Entering the room, I saw a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings in the room, tidied up magnificently, and the maids and women who were close to me were all dressed in gold and silver, tidied up like ordinary ladies.The Wanghou's House is nothing more than that. It seems that the idea of ​​the time-traveling girl Qi Zhen really made a lot of money for the family.Qi Luo greeted the old lady along with his parents.

"You all get up, Ling Zhu is well, I know I'm here to say hello," the old lady said lightly.

Ling Zhu knew that it was the old lady who was making a fuss, and quickly said, "I wanted to come over yesterday, but it was getting late and I didn't want to disturb my aunt's rest. Ling Zhu made you bother, it's my nephew's fault."

"Although you didn't crawl out of my stomach, you grew up beside me. You're not young anymore. Don't just know how to mess around with girls. Those foxy girls know how to seduce the master. You have to make progress and be careful about yourself. Body." Then he said to Mrs. Dong, "You don't have to rely on him for everything. If the girls at home are naughty, you have to clean them up carefully, or else you won't let them turn upside down. You have to persuade yourself A man is motivated, and he should be a good wife." Ling Zhu and Dong Shi nodded quickly.Xu Shi saw them bowing their heads and being taught to be humble, the old lady was not so angry.

"I, an old woman, can't take care of your men's affairs. I heard from your elder brother yesterday that when you are well, go to him. He will ask someone to find you a good job. Although you are cousins, you are all a family." People, be united, our ancestors were also prominent for a time, you must strive to restore the glory of the ancestors."

Ling Zhu used to be afraid of mentioning this, but now that the lining has changed, Ling Zhu is even more impatient with it. Climbing up will be very dangerous, so it's better to live an honest life. "Auntie, I can't do it anymore. It depends on my eldest brother to restore the family's glory. It is good for my eldest brother to be an official. He is close to those high-ranking officials and nobles. Maybe he will attract some nobles. That is also the honor of our family, isn't it?"

Qi Luo saw that the old lady had an obvious smile on her face, and she licked her hair proudly, "Even if your elder brother is well-off, he won't forget you. He is only your cousin, and there will be fewer Yours won't work."

"Yeah, I'm just waiting to borrow my elder brother to get it all. I'll go see what my elder brother ordered now?" Ling Zhu glanced at his wife and daughter worriedly, fearing that they would suffer and be offended, because before Dong and Qi Luo was not very popular with the old lady.Seeing Ling Zhu's worried eyes, Qi Luo quickly lowered her head and gave her father a smile.Ling Zhu nodded reassuringly.Then he bowed to the old lady and left.

"You all come out, that's my brother-in-law, and we are a Manchu family, so we don't have to follow the rules of those Han people." Qi Luo saw a group of people coming out of the room. "Look at what Er Niang said, our family is an honorable family, it's okay if you don't follow the rules, there is no harm in having more rules." Mrs. Dong hurriedly pulled Qi Luo to salute, "Sister-in-law Ann" "You are all brothers and sisters of the same family, you are welcome, you and Qi Luo Luo is ill, but I'm worried enough, fortunately, auspicious people have their own nature, and you still don't salute the second aunt."

"Second Aunt An," Dong said, "get up quickly, and see that girl Zhen is getting better and better, and Qi Zhu is also more dignified and quiet. It's better to be brought up by sister-in-law."

The old lady beckoned a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl to come to her, took her by the hand and said, "I'm not boasting, my granddaughter is good, not only good-looking, but also very clever, full of ideas, and good at managing money." Yes, the future will bring glory to the family." Knowing that this girl is Qi Zhen, Qi Luo couldn't help but look up carefully, Qi Zhen is only ten years old this year, but her development is relatively early, she looks like twelve or thirteen years old up.A pair of dark eyes, a small nose, and pink lips on a duck-egg-shaped face are very cute.He was wearing a purple flag dress, with luxurious patterns embroidered on the neckline and cuffs, and the pearl jewelry on his head gave off a faint light, making his whole body glow.

"Sister Luo, why is she staring at him, don't you know her?" Qi Zhen's dark eyes were full of pride and a little bit of disdain.Mrs. Dong pulled Qi Luo, "I haven't seen Sister Zhen for a few days. Seeing that Sister Zhen is getting more and more beautiful, and her clothes are also beautiful, I can't help but stare blankly."

Qi Zhen said proudly, "This dress is made by the famous Xiuyifang in the capital. I heard that Xiuyifang makes clothes for famous princesses, and ordinary people don't care about you at all. I was brought by Chu Yangege." , don’t even think about it.”

"Qi Zhen, why are you talking to your sister? Luo Er, don't take it to heart, if you like it, I will ask Qi Zhen to take you with me next time."

"No, Auntie, I'm just looking. I'm not as pretty as Sister Zhen, and I don't look good in clothes."

Dong glanced at Qi Zhen, a little annoyed that she didn't know how to speak properly, but she knew that Qi Zhen and Qi Luo's relationship had always been bad, thinking that her daughter was a sensible child, and Qi Luo didn't pay much attention to food and clothing in modern times. Let alone in ancient times.I don't know if Qi Zhen also came from time travel, but now this is the most important thing.Knowing that Qi Luo was inconvenient to talk, it seemed that he asked about it by himself. "Chu Yan gege? Which family is gege?"

"It's the grandson of Prince An, the daughter of Heshuo's son-in-law Mingshang, a noble daughter, and I don't know why, but Qi Zhen got her special attention. Girl Zhen and Chu Yan have a very good friendship. Next time they At the party, Qi Luo can also go with her." The eldest aunt Dong Eshi said proudly.

Qi Luo was very surprised. Didn't Qi Zhen travel through time?Otherwise, she shouldn't know that among the sons of Kangxi, apart from the crown prince, eighth elder brother is the most unlucky. Now what they mean is that Qi Zhen and eighth elder brother will have good friends with Fujin in the future. Isn't she afraid of being unlucky? !Or is Qi Zhen ignorant of the history of the Qing Dynasty?

Seeing Qi Luo in a daze, Mrs. Dong quickly smiled and said, "Our family's Luo Luo has always been in poor health, and he is not as good at dancing as Qi Zhen. Qi Luo has a stubborn temper, and it will be bad if he offends the nobleman."

The old lady then said, "This is reasonable, I didn't say it, you have to educate Qi Luo well, before, he looked like a gourd with its mouth sawed off, but now that he recovered from his illness, he looked a little dull again. , I think we need to find a good doctor for her to take a good look at. Or come to Qi Zhen often and let Qi Zhen teach Qi Luo well!"

Seeing the old lady talk about her daughter like this, Mrs. Dong felt very uncomfortable. This is really a poor person. Since the development of this mansion, they have looked down on their family from the bottom of their hearts.It's okay to be looked down upon by others, but Qi Luo can't bear it.Just as Mrs. Dong was about to refute, Qi Luo pulled Mrs. Dong to succeed, then lowered her head and smiled and said, "I'm not as smart as Sister Zhen, it would be bad to be with Sister Zhen to offend noble people and hurt Sister Zhen."

"It's true, it would be bad if it affects me. Besides, it costs a lot of money for me to play with Chu Yangege and the others. Sister Luo is so in a daze, let her stay at home." Qi Zhen was full of contempt The tone made Dong's fire burn even more.Qi Luo thought it was a little funny. It seems that Qi Luo really offended Qi Zhen before. Judging from her tone of voice, even if Qi Zhen came from time travel, she was not very old before time travel. , There are still many edges and corners that have not been tempered by society.

"Let's talk about Qi Luo recovering from his illness now. I think Qi Luo is still a little weak. If you need any medicine, just tell me. Brothers and sisters, we are a family, so don't be polite." Dong E quickly eased the atmosphere and changed the topic.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. Our family can still use this medicinal material. I will open my mouth to sister-in-law when I need it." Dong said lightly

"It's not easy to save some money now. The brothers and sisters don't worry about Qi Luo's daughter. Qi Huan is still a concubine. Unlike me, he has a lot of children. In the future, the cost of dowry and marriage will not be a small amount. Zhen girl is another one." If you are high-minded, if you have a good home in the future, you must have a dowry?"

"Sister-in-law was joking, I don't know if others don't know, why don't you just ask Qi Zhen to give you some money-making ideas?"

"Why is Second Aunt such an easy idea? I've been thinking about it for a long time, besides, now that I'm busy with Chu Yan and the others, I still have time to think about it. No matter how much money you have, you don't have the right to use it well. Chu Yan It's the eighth prince Fujin who is appointed by default, I can marry if our family is higher~~~~~~~" Qi Zhen lowered her tone and whispered "Eighth elder brother"

"Qi Zhen! You are confused, don't talk nonsense, those princes Fujin are of noble birth, our family can't compare." Dong E reprimanded

The old lady was upset, and hugged Qi Zhen in her arms: "This is at home, not outside, besides, Zhen'er is a sensible girl, and Zhen'er is no worse than other noble girls in everything, so why can't she marry a girl?" Prince, our family had a very high family status in the early days, but it declined because of the lack of men. I see, if we want to restore the glory of our family, we have to look at Qi Zhen. With such a smart daughter, how can you Talk about her? If you let me hear it again, I will never forgive you. "

Qi Zhen rubbed against the old lady's pregnancy, looked at Qi Luo triumphantly, and said, "Will grandma always treat me well? If others bully me, will grandma make the decision for me?"

"Of course, grandma will always love you very much. If anyone in the family bullies you, tell me and let grandma take care of him."

Dong Shi looked at the coquettish Qi Zhen, and felt that Qi Luo was the one who said this, and Dong Shi didn't understand what happened between Qi Zhen and the former Qi Luo, and why Qi Zhen hated Qi Luo so much?Dong thought about it carefully, but still had no answer.Go back and discuss it with Ling Zhu to see if he has an answer. "Auntie, sister-in-law, it's getting late, and we should go back."

"Sisters and sisters should stay here for a while, I'll go and prepare, we'll have a light meal together later, so the old lady can have fun with too many people."

Mrs. Dong declined, "No, my body hasn't recovered yet, so I won't bother my sister-in-law. I'll wait for my aunt when I'm well."

Dong E's family looked at the very determined Dong's family, and knew that she had made up her mind, so she stopped staying.Mrs. Dong and Qi Luo saluted and bid farewell to the old lady, Mrs. Dong E ordered her servants to send them off well.
