Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 213

After bidding farewell to the Meng family, Shi Yiqing led Qi'er, who was tired of staying beside him and refused to leave, to the courtyard next to the nunnery, following Scopole.

Walking in front of the originally deserted courtyard, Shi Yiqing saw Madam Xu and others standing in front of the path waiting at the door, and hurried forward: "Mama, you are not in good health, how can you come out to see the wind?" .”

Mother Xu took Shi Yiqing's hand and looked it over, before she could speak, she shed tears first: "My miss, as long as you are fine, as long as you are fine."

Shi Yiqing didn't know whether Madam Xu was afraid that the Queen Mother would eat her, or that the Meng family would do something cruel to her.

After being surrounded by the crowd and entering the house, Shi Yiqing saw that they were busy waiting for her to change clothes, and finally found time to talk for a while, before she could say a few words, she heard the sound of a child crying outside the door.Jianliu came into the house with the tightly wrapped child in his arms, smiled and said, "Madam, Pan'er heard your voice, was crying and insisting on coming to look for you, so I had no choice but to bring him here. "

Shi Yiqing hadn't seen his son for many days, so he hurriedly took the child from Jianliu's hands, coaxed him with a smile, and then asked, "Pan'er? Who chose this name?"

Jianliu covered the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Who else could take it?"

Shi Yiqing was slightly taken aback, and after realizing it, she curled her lips in distaste: "I just know how to name the child after his daughter's family, and when he grows up, his son will settle accounts with him. I'll see what he wants." It is the sweet happiness that cannot be concealed, but it makes these righteous words lose some strength.

At noon, Shi Yiqing coaxed Qi'er to take a nap, and let Pan'er in her arms drink a few mouthfuls of her own milk. In the quiet autumn sun, Shi Yiqing felt a little calm.

Xing'er, who was waiting outside the door, came in on tiptoe: "Miss, someone is coming up ahead, saying that the master wants to see you."

Mother Xu exclaimed, "Master?" Then she remembered that she shouldn't have lost her composure, and hurriedly got up to look at Qi'er and Pan'er who were sleeping soundly. Seeing that they hadn't been woken up, she felt relieved and asked softly: " Xing'er, but the third master wants to see Miss?"

Being by Shi Yiqing's side these days, he knew something about the relationship here, so he hurriedly replied: "The person who came here only said it was the master, and never mentioned which master it was."

Shi Yiqing sighed in a deep voice: "What is supposed to come, will come after all. Don't be alarmed, mammy, if I think about it, my father just wanted to ask me why I left. It shouldn't be a big deal."

Mother Xu was very worried, and said worriedly: "Then, then I will go with you."

"You look at Qi'er here, don't make him trouble."

Shi Yiqing let Xing'er change her clothes, then followed the visitors to the front yard, bypassed the veranda, water bridge, walked through the rockery and the courtyard, and arrived at Shi Jingran's yard.

Yang Lianxiang, the mistress of the third house, has passed away for many years. Although the old lady, Meng Shi, intends to marry another family for him, whoever is a big family in Beijing does not know that the third house of the Shi family is so bad that they are willing to send their daughters away. Come to Shi's house.Even if there is a small family who is eager to send the girl in to fill in the house, but the old lady Meng's eyes are higher than the sky, and she looks down on her, so she has delayed the matter of the third house by going back and forth.

The old lady Meng's age is getting older, and she is unable to do many things in the house. She has been in charge of the third room for so many years, but she is not willing to hand over the third room to the aunt who bought it from outside, so she picks it out from her own girls. A smart one was given to Shi Jingran, and she was nominally a concubine, but she was always in charge of the three rooms, and the maids and mothers everywhere called her the third wife behind their backs.

Shi Yiqing followed the girl into Shi Jingran's yard, and saw that the inside was neatly organized, and the houses were considered to be in good order, so she couldn't help but give her a high look in her heart.

The girl who led the way led Shi Yiqing to sit in the east wing room, served cakes and tea, and then retreated. Shi Yiqing saw that the girl looked strange, as if she had never seen it before, and felt more and more that the Shi family was unfamiliar, so she couldn't help sighing and said There is a saying that things seem to be different from others.

It was a coincidence that these words fell into the ears of the woman dressed as an aunt who stepped into the door, and said with a smile: "Miss Jiu has been away from the mansion for many years, and she must have suffered a lot outside and suffered a lot. "

Shi Yiqing smiled and got up to look around, and asked, "Forgive my blindness, may I ask who you are?"

The little girl serving behind the aunt raised her chin and said, "This is Aunt Jin."

Seeing the girl's arrogance, Shi Yiqing raised her eyebrows slightly, then sat down on the back of the chair with a short body, took a sip of tea with a half-smile, and tasted the bitterness of the tea on the tip of her tongue.

Aunt Jin frowned slightly and yelled at the girl behind her: "If you have no rules, who would allow you to say 'you, me' in front of the lady? Hurry up and apologize to the lady!"

The little girl apologized unwillingly, and was kicked out by Aunt Jin to serve her.

Shi Yiqing put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Aunt Jin with indifferent eyebrows. Seeing that she was growing up well, her features were pretty, and she had been trained by the old lady Meng for many years. Will also like this wonderful person.

Aunt Jin swayed the waist of the willow branch and came forward, sat down on her lower head with a smile, and said: "Miss Nine is very kind, if it were me, I'm afraid she would make that girl look bad on the spot."

Shi Yiqing lowered his eyes and smiled contemptuously, and said: "It's just a girl, why should I be so petty. What's more, I haven't been back for many years, and when I came back, I would compete with a girl, and I would call you a joke."

"Look at what Miss Jiu said, Jin'er is just a girl beside the old lady, even if she is promoted by the old lady now, she is just a concubine who serves by the master's side, and you are a young lady, how dare I laugh at you."

Shi Yiqing straightened his sleeves, and felt a little impatient for such a meaningful conversation: "People here said that the master is looking for me, but now it seems that the master is not here, so I will not accompany my aunt. I will leave first."

Seeing Shi Yiqing getting up to leave, Aunt Jin hurriedly stopped her, and said: "It is true that the master wants to see the young lady, but now there are distinguished guests here, so it is inconvenient for the master to come out, so he asked me to stay here and talk to the young lady."

"Since the master has a guest, I shouldn't delay here, lest I be seen by others, and it will be another gossip in the door."

Seeing that Shi Yiqing had made up her mind to go, Aunt Jin hurriedly blocked the door, and said in a panic, "Is there something that cannibalizes people in this room? The mad lady can't sit still for a moment, so she wants to go out? If you bump into a distinguished guest, you will be killed." At that time, the master is afraid that he will not like it again."

Shi Jingran has never liked Shi Yiqing, this is something that everyone in the Shi family knows.

Shi Yiqing leaned against the door and grinned grimly: "I want to ask my aunt, what is my aunt's plan, and why did she not let me out of this door? Auntie, if you have something to say, you might as well be honest, if not, I will reply right away." .”

Aunt Jin supported her bright smile, and hurriedly said: "Miss is really a smart person. Yes, I do have something to say to miss." After Shi Yiqing was invited back to the back of the chair, Aunt Jin said, "Miss, I was pampered and treated well in the house, but now I have been away for many years, I am afraid that I must endure hardship..."

"Auntie, it's better for you to focus on the point."

Aunt Jin paused for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Miss, even if Miss doesn't plan for herself, she should plan for the young master once or twice."

Shi Yiqing asked doubtfully, "You mean, Qi'er?"

"That's right, it's Master Qi'er." Aunt Jin said eagerly, "The young master has been away with the young lady for many years, shouldn't the young lady think about the future of the young master? I know the young lady's concerns, let's not talk about harming Qi'er before." The young master's Aunt Cheng has lost her hands and feet and is a useless person, even if she is still good, there are old madam, master and me in this house."

Shi Yiqing sneered, "You? Aunt Jin, what did you say?"

Aunt Jin raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Miss, I know that the old lady and the master are very fond of me. If the lady doesn't worry about me, she will ask Master Qier to stay in the mansion. I think the old lady and the master will love him, even me. As an aunt, I'm afraid I have to devote myself to him."

"Auntie wants to raise Qi'er under her knees?"

Aunt Jin lowered her eyes and closed her eyes, she panicked and said: "Hey, I'm just an aunt, how dare I raise Master Qi'er, just because there is no one in charge in the third room, old lady Seeing that I am still a sensible person with the master, I gave this burden to me."

Shi Yiqing said coldly: "I have never seen my aunt today, and I have the right to pretend that I have never heard what my aunt said. Qi'er should wake up from his nap, so I will go back first, so I won't disturb the master talking to the distinguished guests." .”

Aunt Jin saw that Shi Yiqing's face turned cold, she was completely panicked, she stepped forward and said eagerly: "I know, Miss is afraid that when Master Qi'er grows up, he will be said to be raised by his aunt, but there is no reason for what happened now, now. , is really helpless."

Shi Yiqing was blocked again and again, and he was unhappy for a long time. Seeing that she was coming to snatch Qi'er, he said displeasedly: "Aunt Jin misjudged me. Although I, Shi Yiqing, is a woman, I am not afraid of outsiders' gossip. The raised Qi'er is not a child who is devastated because of what other people say. My aunt wants to have a child, so she gives birth to it herself, and she shouldn't have come to look at me, Qi'er!"

"Miss Nine, I, I was planning for you and Young Master Qi'er wholeheartedly, but what you said was too mean!" Aunt Jin's eyes were red, and she jumped on her feet, as if she had been greatly wronged, but she couldn't say it. .

Shi Yiqing sneered again and again: "I appreciate Aunt Jin's kindness, but it's just you and me here, why should Auntie make such a gesture, like me, a concubine who has been away from home for many years, and I don't know what to say and offend the housekeeper My aunt, it's not good to be seen by others. I think the master is busy, so he won't be able to see me today. If this is the case, then I will take my leave first. "
