Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 146 The Sun Rises in the West

The ninth day of September is the old lady Meng's [-]th birthday. Because of the many changes in the Shi family these days, the three masters of the Shi family wanted to make the old lady happy. .

Because of the farce caused by Shi Zeqian's close proximity to the nanny a few days ago, the eldest lady in charge of Shi's family wanted to take this opportunity to show herself in front of everyone, so as to make up for the embarrassment that Dafang lost these days.

In the early morning of this day, Shi Yiqing was sitting in front of the bronze mirror and pulling his hair. Hearing the continuous noise outside the courtyard door, he frowned and asked Jianliu irritably, "What are you doing outside? Why is it so noisy?"

Jianliu replied: "Miss Hui, it should belong to Da Furen. I heard that Da Furen's natal family bought a Western Region crabapple in the Western Regions. The old madam was happy to see it and asked someone to plant it in our Baifang Garden. After a few days When I celebrate my birthday, I invited all the young ladies to come and see."

"Western Begonia?" Shi Yiqing raised his eyebrows, "That's strange. Although grandma likes flowers and plants, I haven't seen any peerless and famous flowers that she likes. Such a crabapple flower makes her so happy?"

Mo Xian picked a silk flower and put it on Shi Yiqing's head, and said with a smile: "Miss, I don't know, the flower that Da Furen bought is said to be called Jiao Niang, which just happened to be the old lady's nickname. The face said a lot of benefits of the flower, and when it was served, it was said to look like an old lady, can the old lady not be happy when she sees it?"

Shi Yiqing sneered, and said softly, "She can calculate."

After dressing up, Shi Yiqing was about to leave the moon, and ran into Mrs. Shi head-on, and couldn't help being surprised: "The sun is rising in the west today? Sister will come to play with me this early in the morning?"

Mrs. Shi stepped forward with a wry smile and said, "I don't have such good skills. I didn't sleep late in the morning, so I came here to listen to your jokes." After a pause, she continued, "Do you know what happened yesterday? "

Shi Yiqing waved his silk fan and smiled, "I don't know about that. Why don't sisters tell me?"

Mrs. Shi took Shi Yiqing's hand and walked under the osmanthus tree beside the Ubi Pool, and said in a low voice, "You don't know, my mother made a big fuss with Fifth Sister yesterday and scolded Fifth Sister I cried. If it wasn’t for grandma’s birthday in a few days, I’m afraid our family can’t stop these days.”

"What the hell happened?"

Mrs. Shi said angrily: "It's not those nannies and girls in our house who bully others! Yesterday morning I told Fifth Sister that I would take the gold silk that my grandmother gave me last year and wear it, and let her wear it all the time." I put it on and showed it to my grandmother, so that my grandmother would be happy. But the fifth sister hesitated and refused to answer. When I was anxious, I forced the embroidery beside her to say that the embroidery said that the gold thread was a gift from her grandmother. Tired Feng was pawned by Nanny Su long ago, and she is still lying in the pawn shop. When I heard this, I couldn't hide my anger, and said a few words to Fifth Sister casually. I didn't think about it, and said it seriously. After a while, this word reached my mother, she didn't come to look for me, but instead went to Fifth Sister to talk, and scolded for a long time in front of the house full of nuns and girls. After mother left, Fifth Sister's eyes were swollen from crying I just asked Zhixiu to come over and tell me that I'm afraid I won't be able to attend the morning class today. After I inquired carefully, I realized that I was the one who caused the trouble, and my sister was wronged for no reason."

She breathed a sigh of relief, and said anxiously with red eyes: "Qing'er, tell me, what are I doing here!"

Shi Yiqing breathed out worriedly, raised his hand and said comfortingly: "You have the best relationship with Fifth Sister, and you have been with them since you were young, and Fifth Sister would not blame you for this, otherwise I wouldn't let Zhixiu come with you just now I can’t talk about going to morning classes. But, let me tell you, it’s grandma’s birthday that matters. I have the same idea as Fifth Sister. Don’t make an accident at this juncture. Otherwise, grandma will get angry. It’s not you and my sister who can I can stand it."

Mrs. Shi wiped the corners of her eyes with a towel, and said in a deep voice: "I understand the truth, and I know how big or small this matter is. If it gets out, I'm afraid I may not offend anyone, and I don't know what's going on. How much is involved. It's just that Fifth Sister has suffered so much for me, as long as I think about it, I feel uncomfortable."

"If elder sister is worried and sad, you can go and talk to fifth elder sister and comfort her a few words, so that she won't let her think about it. As for Nanny Su, I'm afraid you and my sister won't be able to talk to her, why don't we go find sister-in-law Come on, maybe it will work."

"Sister-in-law? After all, sister-in-law is from the big house. Madam Su has stayed by her mother's side for a long time, so I'm afraid she may not take what sister-in-law said seriously."

Shi Yiqing circled the handle of the fan and said with a smile: "Sister, I don't understand. Although the eldest sister-in-law is in the big house, she doesn't care about things, but she can talk in front of grandma. If Nanny Su still If you have some knowledge, you shouldn't offend my sister-in-law. Eighth sister, you just believe my words, and follow me to talk to my sister-in-law, and ask her to help us redeem Jinfeng from that slave first. "

Mistress Shi followed Shi Yiqing out of Chunhui Hall suspiciously, and went to Mihe Zhai of the Dafang Jian's.Yan'er, the most face-to-face person beside Jian's, saw that it was Mrs. Shi and Shi Yiqing, she hurriedly greeted her with a smile, leaned over and saluted, "A rare visitor, really a rare visitor, how do you two misses remember that our wife is here?"

Shi Yiqing smiled familiarly, and said, "Sister-in-law doesn't want to go to our small garden, so Eighth Sister and I have no choice but to come and talk to us."

Yan'er welcomed Shi Yiqing, his wife and his wife into the west chamber with a full smile, and ordered the little girl to bring tea and snacks, and served her well.Just as he was joking, Shi Yiqing heard voices coming from outside. Looking along his line of sight, he saw Jian Shi wearing a festive red slanted skirt coming in through the curtain from the outside. Not surprised, she said with a smile: "I didn't believe it before when the girl came to report, but now I see it's real, she really is a rare visitor."

Washing her hands with the water brought by Yan'er, Jane joked with a smile: "People often say that you can go to the Three Treasures Palace if you have nothing to do. I don't know that the two young ladies came here rashly, but do you want to ask me?"

Mrs. Shi smiled nervously, and said: "Sister-in-law is really good at making fun of people. Could it be that you can't come to talk to sister-in-law if you have nothing to do?"

Shi Yiqing smiled lightly and said: "Eighth Sister has nothing to ask, but I have something to ask my sister-in-law, but I am afraid that my sister-in-law will find this matter troublesome and refuse to help."

Mrs. Shi turned her eyes to look at Shi Yiqing and pretended to be surprised and said, "How can my sister say that? My sister-in-law loves our sisters the most. She knows we are in trouble, so how can she not help us, but drive us out instead?" Woolen cloth?"

"My sister doesn't know. People say that the daughter-in-law is the family. We girls will marry off sooner or later. The ancients said that the water poured out by a married daughter is hard to recover. If you don't come back a few times, it doesn't matter what the sister-in-law is doing, and the sister-in-law is a person who doesn't want to meddle in other people's affairs, how can she help us?"

Jian Shi saw the two of them repelling herself with each other, instead of being angry, she smiled, walked up to Shi Yiqing and sat down, stretched out her hand and pinched her face, pretending to be angry and said: "That's all, I'm afraid of you guys The mouths of the two opened up, and each of them spoke like a knife, and I couldn't stand it. Tell me, what wronged you two sisters and asked me to help?"

Shi Yiqing smiled and complimented: "Sister-in-law is really quick to talk, then we sisters will talk."

As she said that, she gave Mrs. Shi a look, and asked Mrs. Shi to repeat what she had said to her before. After hearing this, Jane could not help but smile wryly, and shook her head: "I said, two aunts, you are too good at finding time." , but to cause trouble at this critical juncture, if the old lady finds out, you will be fine."

Shifu acted coquettishly and pulled Jane's sleeves, and said: "So, this is not looking for our sister-in-law, thinking that sister-in-law will help our sisters."

Jian's sighed deeply, and said slowly: "Look at your pitiful spirit, I'd like to help you for a while, after all, you are ladies, there is no reason for a lady's things to be used by slaves casually, and there is no such thing as a slave." You two don't need to stand up to Miss Wu about this matter. I'll find that Madam Su to come over and talk. You two go to see Miss Wu first and talk about this matter. I should That's it, I'll bring you back the golden silk phoenix for sure."

Mrs. Shi was overjoyed, and after thanking Jian's, she took Shi Yiqing and was about to turn back to Baifangyuan. On the way, she bumped into Mingmei who was hurrying over, and when she saw Shi Yiqing, she said eagerly: "Miss, old madam Calling you to Chunhui Hall."

Shi Yiqing had no choice but to resign from Mrs. Shi, and led Mo Xian and Mingmei to Chunhui Hall, because Mingmei said early in the morning that it was from the Xiao family, so when Shi Yiqing saw Mrs. Xiao sitting on the back of the chair, she was talking to the old lady with a smile , I am not surprised anymore.

Yingying bowed to Mrs. Xiao, and before she could speak, she heard a delicate voice from inside: "But cousin is here?"

Shi Yiqing went to look in surprise, only to see Xiao Yongqi rushing out from the room with the beaded curtain, and trotted towards him, couldn't help being surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "Sister Qi, you're here too?"

Xiao Yongqi laughed and said, "Didn't expect me to come too?"

The old lady lying on the soft couch smiled joyfully, and said to Shi Yiqing: "The seventh girl misses you so much, she came looking for you just after getting off the carriage, and was disappointed for a long time when she saw that you were not here."

Mrs. Xiao nodded and smiled: "It's also fortunate that Mrs. Shi has a good temper. If it were me, I'm afraid I would kick her out."

"Seventh girl is pretty, she looks like a flower, and she is lively and active at an age, she is very likable, how can I be willing to drive her out." The old lady paused, waved her hand at Shi Yiqing, He said, "Qing'er, take Seventh Girl back to Baifang Garden to play, so that you two girls won't have much to say here and feel restrained."

Shi Yiqing responded with a smile, leaned over to say goodbye to the old lady and Mrs. Xiao, led Xiao Yongqi to Baifang Garden, and asked on the way: "It's like a dream, I didn't expect the county lord to let you out? She is not afraid of you running away."

Xiao Yongqi played with the wild flowers that she picked from the side just now, and said with a hearty smile: "You don't know that, do you? Grandma asked my mother to bring me with me this time. If it weren't for seeing that you were sick for a while at Shi's house , I am too lazy to come here to socialize."

Shi Yiqing asked with a wry smile: "Why did such a good birthday banquet become the entertainment you talked about?"

"Your Shi family is treating it as a birthday banquet, but my mother doesn't seem to think so."

Shi Yiqing was taken aback for a moment, then turned his eyes and raised his eyebrows and smiled with comprehension.

Although the Shi family is not a famous family, let alone a relative of the emperor, there is only a noble, but the person in charge is just a minister of the official department. , the prince is gearing up to make something famous at this birthday banquet, but it is not difficult to imagine why the Lord of Yinshan County suddenly changed his mind and let Xiao Yongqi out.

However, Shi Yiqing secretly thought with deep eyes, the Lord of Yinshan and Mrs. Xiao have a close plan, what is afraid of is whether Xiao Yongqi, the person involved, will obediently cooperate with all this.

Xiao Yongqi stretched out her hand to pull Shi Yiqing who was in a daze, and when she got a response, she twitched her lips and said impatiently: "Cousin, it's hot today, and your Shi family doesn't have a nice place, why don't we hurry up."

Shi Yiqing had no choice but to pamper Xiao Yongqi's temples, and was about to lead her into the Baifang Garden, when she was turning around to dye the moon, when she was walking by the Ubisoft Pool, a person came, who looked like Jane's from a distance, and Seeing that she was coming towards the Dianxing Pavilion, she stopped, looked at Jane and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law just came back from Fifth Sister?"

But Jane saw Shi Yiqing entering the garden from a distance, and wanted to call her to speak, and turned her eyes to notice Xiao Yongqi who was beside her, and couldn't help frowning. He smiled, went forward to meet her, and replied: "I just met the fifth girl, and I told the ladies what they wanted, and told her to return it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Shi Yiqing was surprised: "Eighth sister didn't mention the punishment?"

"The eighth girl wanted to punish, but the fifth girl was kind-hearted and cared about her affection, so she spared that servant."

Shi Yiqing nodded, sighed and said, "Fifth Sister is the most soft-hearted, if it were me, what kind of trouble would happen."

After a pause, she turned her eyes and saw that Jane's gaze was always on Xiao Yongqi, so she smiled and turned around to introduce to Jian's: "Look at my memory, I forgot to introduce it to my sister-in-law. This is the seventh girl of the Xiao family, whose nickname is Seven."

Jane looked down at Xiao Yongqi carefully, and said with a polite smile: "I often hear Nine Girls talk about him, saying that he is a fairy-like figure, and today I can see it."

Shi Yiqing smiled and turned her eyes to Xiao Yongqi and said: "This is from the big family in the house, my sister-in-law, Jian's."

Xiao Yongqi looked at Jian Shi with squinting eyes and raised her eyebrows, and said in an indifferent voice: "My cousin never mentioned you to me."

Jane smiled without embarrassment: "That's right, I've forgotten that Miss Nine was previously under the name of the third lady, and now she is Miss Seven's cousin."

Shi Yiqing saw Jian's indifferent face, opened his mouth in surprise, and said calmly, "Xiaoqi is still young, so it's important to be ignorant, I hope sister-in-law doesn't care."

Jian Shi smiled and said no, she resigned from Shi Yiqing and Xiao Yongqi, and walked out of Baifang Garden by the path.

Shi Yiqing watched Jian Shi leave and felt that Yongqi Xiao was pulling her sleeves, so she turned around and looked at her, and said without smiling or angry: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Yongqi pouted her lips and carefully looked at Shi Yiqing's face, and said, "Cousin, you, are you angry?"

Shi Yiqing asked blankly, "Why am I angry?"

Xiao Yongqi looked apprehensive about doing something wrong, and said to her fingers: "Cousin, don't be angry, I know I was wrong."

"Since you know you're wrong, why did you treat her like this just now?"

Xiao Yongqi pouted her mouth high, turned her back to Shi Yiqing and said nothing.

Shi Yiqing barely suppressed the impatience in his heart, and asked softly: "Although you are a bully, you are not unreasonable, not to mention, you were fine just now, talking and laughing with me, why did you say that to him in a blink of an eye?" Attitude?" Seeing that Xiao Yongqi still didn't speak, Shi Yiqing exhausted her patience, and couldn't help saying angrily, "If you don't speak, you can go back to Xiao's house with Mrs. Xiao now, so as not to cause trouble for me here."

"Cousin, don't be angry, I, I say it's okay." Xiao Yongqi looked around cautiously, and leaned into Shi Yiqing's ear and said, "You don't know, the Jian family is not a good thing, and the Jian family is even more snobby. People insisted on giving an ugly girl to Brother Mu as a concubine, but the Mu family refused on the grounds that they were not married and could not take concubines. But Brother Mu refused, and the family went to find King Wei and let King Wei decide. Taking that little concubine into the mansion forced Big Brother Mu to live in Wei Wang’s mansion now that he has no family to return to!”

Shi Yiqing looked at Xiao Yongqi, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Just for this matter, you show your face to others? It's not that they insisted on giving that girl to Mu Weidao, so why are you angry with her?"

Xiao Yongqi struggled with her handkerchief, and said angrily: "I, as soon as I see their family members now, I will be so angry. This is just in the way of your face. If you leave it at Xiao's house, see if I don't scold her." of!"

"You, with your savage temper, who will dare to want you in the future!"

Xiao Yongqi pursed her lips and said firmly: "Who wants them to marry me? I have identified Brother Mu in my life! Anyone who dares to force me, I will die and show them!"

Shi Yiqing laughed jokingly and said: "Why don't you dare to say this in front of the county magistrate? What kind of ability is it to say it here? What's more, you are a lady of the family, and you are even a member of the royal family. Are you ashamed to say this? "

"What's there to be ashamed of? The old master has been talking about shutting down Jujiu all day, so is he ashamed?"

Shi Yiqing shook his head helplessly, and said, "Come on, it seems that I can't talk to you, and I can't control you."
