Chapter 73

This conversation lasted until after a while, before Marquis Wu An let Mrs. Chu take Qingmei out of the attic, and also told Qingmei to come to the mansion often as a guest in the future.

Marquis Wu'an and his wife are deeply affectionate, and there are no concubines in the mansion. When Qingmei went back with Mrs. Chu, she saw Mrs. Gu dozing on the beauty's couch, and Chu Hongxiu was playing chess with Gu Ronghua and the sisters. Sparse and desolate.Mrs. Chu stayed with everyone for dinner, and by the time the mothers said their goodbyes, it was already near Xu time on the new moon.

After returning to the Gu mansion, everyone went back to their residences, Xu asked Qingmei how she was today, Qingmei told the truth, Xu said happily: "So, the Marquis of Wu'an likes you very much?"

"Marquis Wu An and his father have a deep relationship, and they treat me very well. As for whether I like it or not, I'm not sure." Qing Mei stuck out the tip of her tongue, a bit playful.

Xu smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I'm afraid Madam really has plans to marry you to the Marquis of Wu'an."

"That's just her plan." Qingmei curled her lips, "The relationship between Marquis Wu An and his father is one thing, but my marriage is another. Do I want to marry because of this? Chu Xiuming is such a big man , Will you still listen to the arrangement obediently? What's more, father and Marquis Wu An have a deep friendship, and their relationship cannot be used like this. Just wait and see, Auntie will not be happy." Qingmei curled her lips.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said nothing, called Lvzhu in, helped Qingmei wash up and rested.

The next day I went to Liufangtang to say hello, Madam Gu's attitude was obviously much more amiable than before, Qingmei just pretended not to know her thoughts, talked and laughed as usual, and went to take care of those wine jars after returning to her residence.

During the chat, Mrs. Gu mentioned that Chu Xiuming would return to Beijing for the New Year at the end of the year, and Qingmei also pretended to be deaf and dumb and vaguely said the past.

It was near the end of the year, all the people in the mansion were busy preparing for the New Year, and the gentlemen in the Xinghua House also went home early, which made Qingmei have a leisure time, and she was very attentive to guarding those wine jars every day.

On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, Junli came to Gu's mansion again, Gu Changqing sent a servant to invite Qingmei to come over, at that time Qingmei was lying by the window teasing a fat cat, upon hearing this, she took the green pearl and went to the museum.

When he got there, he realized that there was nothing wrong with Gu Changqing looking for her, it was just that Junli came to visit and wanted to see Qingmei.The two of them played chess in the room and chatted, Qingmei moved a round stool and sat beside her to watch the game, she had never learned chess before, so now Junli would talk to her a little bit, the three of them were happy together .

At the end, Junli and Gu Changqing met to visit the eminent monks in Qingshan Temple, and Gu Changqing went to the study to find something.Junli sat leisurely in the chair and asked Qingmei how the wine was going, Qingmei said: "It will be unsealed after the fifth day of the lunar new year, and I will definitely not miss the deadline set by the princess."

"Remember to leave two altars for me." Jun Li put the chess pieces into the chess jar one by one, and turned to tell Qingmei.

"I know. The third prince is so kind and virtuous, and Qingmei has nothing to repay her, so she can only offer a pot of various fine wines to express her gratitude." Qingmei pretended to be serious, and stood up to bow to Junli, biting her lips and smiling smartly and playfully extreme.

Junli paused, then smiled suddenly: "No repayment? How about...a promise with your body?"

Where to follow!Qingmei got a big blush and gave him a hard look.This person is really... always telling outrageous jokes with a serious look, it's really hateful!She had already forgotten Junli's identity, so she stretched out her hand to push his chest and said, "What nonsense! If you talk like that again, I won't give you any fruit wine." Turning around, she walked to the side to look at the bronze antique on the case. Ding, but there was some fever on his cheeks.

Jun Li smiled slightly, and said, "Are you annoyed?"

"En!" Qingmei admitted simply.

"Let me see." Junli walked towards this side, Qingmei quickly turned around and stared at him, like an annoyed kitten, usually docile and pleasant, but now she can lift her Little claws scratch people.

Jun Li stopped one step away from Qingmei, as if admiring her annoyed appearance, and just when Qingmei was about to be really annoyed, he said, "How about buying you the scallion pancakes from Baqiao Street?" Qingmei's aura obviously softened a bit, and Junli continued her efforts: "There are also walnut cakes from Bazhenfang."

"The tea bean wine in Chongrenfang... the fried small balls on Yujie..." Every time Junli reported something, Qingmei's face softened, and finally she smiled, and said with a sullen face: "You can figure it out .”

Seeing this, Jun Li tapped her on the forehead, went back to the table and put away all the chessboards and jars.
