Si Jian sat down a little, and when Song Paner woke up, he found out what he had found again and told Song Paner.

Song Pan'er's eyes were filled with anger.

"Beast!" She scolded Cai Ping.

After a while, I was so angry that I felt relieved.

Si Jian went out to inquire about the news, but he didn't spend twenty taels of silver.

He still returned the remaining sixteen taels to Song Pan'er.

Song Pan'er asked him to take it: "Go and visit quietly for a few more days, and tell me the news if it is true."

Si Jiandao is.

On the other side of the ear room, Nian Lu changed her clothes, wrapped her more than 20 taels of silver she had saved every month in a blue silk cloth, and went to Mu Qing's room.

Mu Qing lay inward, heard the knock on the door, and after a while, he asked, "Who?"

The sound was wet, as if I had cried.

Nian Lu whispered: "Mu Qing, it's me, Nian Lu."

Mu Qing then quickly got up and opened the door for Nian Lu: "Sister Nian Lu, come in quickly."

Her face was covered with tears.

Seeing the burden in Nian Lu's hand, Mu Qing couldn't understand what he meant.

Nian Lu sat on her kang without hesitation and waved her to sit down too.

Mu Qing was slightly confused.

Nian Lu untied her bag and spread the silver to Mu Qing: "These are the silver I used for my monthly period, and some of them were rewarded by my wife. There are accounts to check on the wife, and the origin is clean. I kept some of them and borrowed them.

I'll give you a gift. You'll return it to me later..."

Mu Qing's heart was shocked and his eyes were so awkward.

She is not used to crying in front of others.

When the lady said something sad, she couldn't cry.

At this moment, my eyes were a little wet.

She hurriedly calmed down and said, "Sister, I don't need this for the time being..."

"Don't be polite to me." Nian Lu said, "I'll pay back the money from that bully first. It's important to keep myself. Madam will definitely vent her anger for you in the future. Our lady hates someone who is most likely to give her the popularity..."

"No, no." Mu Qing pushed back and said, "I appreciate my kindness. But I can't pay it back for a while. If my sister has something to do, should I borrow it? My sister keeps it with me and needs money?

I dare not bear the money for death.”

Nianlu smiled and pushed the money over again: "My parents and two brothers are in charge of small matters at the village where the wife is dowrying south, and they don't need me to help me. I still have a lot of money, which exists in Song's mother.

There. She will definitely bring me this time when she goes to Beijing. When Mom Song comes, I will give you another thirty taels..."

Mu Qing's heart suddenly became soft.

She carried her back and covered her mouth with her hands, and tears wet her eyes.

"Don't cry, don't cry." Nianlu was also tired of her eyes. "Doing things in one place is fate. If you deal with the messy things outside, you can serve your wife with peace of mind in the future..."

Mu Qing did not refuse again.

She stood up and blessed Nian Lu: "Sister, great kindness..."

The words behind were choked and hard to speak.

In the evening, Shaoyao knew what Nian Lu and Mu Qing had said for half a day, so she asked her what she said to Mu Qing.

Nian Lu was quietly told to Shaoyao about Mu Qing.

Peony felt sorry for him too.

She also brought more than fifty taels of silver with her. However, she has always been incompatible with Mu Qing and has given it to Mu Qing rashly. Will Mu Qing think she is watching the fun or pity her?

If this is the case, she will let Shaoyao down and make her angry.

Peony didn't speak for a while.

Later she thought that the wife would definitely make a comeback. It would be better to have less than more things. She would pretend not to know about it, so as not to be even more embarrassed by Mu Qing.

For several days, everyone served as usual.

Song Pan'er didn't mention Mu Qing anymore.

By May 20, the matter was found out very clearly: the person named Cai Ping was indeed unwilling to get Mu Qing until he was unwilling to do so.

Whether you like Mu Qing or be angry is obvious at a glance.

He also said that Mu Qing and him had a lifelong conspiracy.

Mu Qing went to the eldest lady at the age of thirteen.

It is ridiculous to say that a thirteen-year-old child and a man will be selfish for life.

Regardless of whether Mu Qing has or not, Cai Ping broke the contract and married his wife first, and then pestered and threatened Mu Qing later, so this person is just a bastard.

His wife was also forced to death by him.

Song Paner knew what happened in his heart, so he called Mu Qing: "I know what you said is true. I have asked someone to take fifty taels to Cai Ping and repay his money.

I also ask someone to tell your brother: I sold you for twenty years. Now I have only been eleven years old. You are eighteen years old. In another three or two years, I will definitely match you with someone. You didn't let go.

Before he went out, he was all from the mansion. If he dared to overthrow the matter of the maid in my mansion, I would ask the servants to beat him to death. He also kept saying that he didn't dare.

As for Cai Ping, I sent someone to tell the eldest lady and the second master. If I get involved in my daughters next time, I will take it and beat them to death. I will not ask them. Don't blame me for being ruthless at that time. I said

After that, even if the second master doesn't care, the eldest lady will interfere.

Things are OK for the time being.

But you have violated my rules by handing out something privately. Punishment is indispensable. You will deduct three months of monthly money first. After three months, you will deduct two taels of monthly money every month and pay back my five

Ten taels. You can go to the outer courtyard later and get ten boards. Can you accept it?"

Mu Qing knelt on the ground, kowtowed deeply, tears fell down, wet the floor, and cried, "I am convinced! Mu Qing is unforgettable for his kindness, and he will never forget the slightest irregularity in the future.

Death. Mrs. Mu Qing thanks for his protection. I will repay you for life and life!”

Song Paner served the tea and took a sip.

She said, "Go and get the board, and then you will have three days off."

She is Song Paner’s confidant, so she needs to protect her; but if she does something wrong, she needs to punish her.

Mu Qing cried, and Nian Lu accompanied him to the outer courtyard.

The servants in the outer courtyard saw Nianlu standing aside, how could they dare to fight? They raised them high, gently fell down, and hit ten boards.

I didn't suffer any physical injuries at all.

Mu Qing still had his life to rest for three days.

Only a few people who served in Song Paner's house knew about her.

Mu Qing returned Nian Lu's money again. But she felt grateful for her kindness, and the two got closer and closer. This is a story later.

Time is slow, and June is coming.

The tender willows are beautiful flowers, and the thin and cold spring day is finally replaced by the scorching summer. The forest shadows produce smoke and the fragrance scatters. The cicadas sit cross-legged on the tall sycamore tree, and the sounds are chirping, adding a few more impetuousness.

Xia arrived quietly like this.

Gu Zhai changed all his summer clothes.

It has been five months since Gu Yanzhen and his family entered Beijing.

Zhu Zhongjun came here for two months.

During these five months, Gu Yanzhen spent all day traveling and almost forgot about the book; Song Paner also adapted to the dry weather in the capital; Xiu Ge'er's hands were also fine, and she was not seriously injured, and her reading and writing were not affected.

Ge'er and Xiu Ge'er's husband were still not hired.

Gu Jinzhi taught Brother Xuan to study. He had already memorized a book of the Analects of Confucius. It was even better than a teacher.

Song Pan'er thought. Gu Jinzhi followed the old man to study for two years and also learned a lot of the Four Books and Five Classics. Brother Xuan liked his sister and worked hard with her. So he simply waited for the spring exam next year and had a failure. The juren was unwilling to return to his hometown and hired him to teach Brother Xuan and Brother Xiu.

The old man was still like in Yanling Mansion, writing books every day and having supper with everyone on the 1st and 15th day of the lunar month.

However, he no longer teaches Gu Jinzhi.

Others don’t know, but the old man knows very well: there is nothing to teach. The child is not talented, but she knows it, so it’s easy to learn.

Since this is the case, why learn it again?

Zhu Zhongjun has done nothing in the past two months and has been spending all day with Gu’s family to watch Gu Jin teach Brother Xuan’er to study.

He also memorized a book of the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs.

In June, Qin Weisi died suddenly in prison.

The Imperial Hospital has made suggestions, but there has never been a new delegation.

For a moment, the people in the Imperial Hospital were ready to move.

As one of the cabinet masters, Gu Yantao has an imperial physician visiting him in person or in person every day.

Gu Yantao refused to accept anything.

At this critical moment, he didn't want to be too arrogant.

In the past, Gu Yantao was very confident that he would succeed as the chief minister.

But when he missed his trip to Annan, he lost the opportunity to make great contributions. It would be rare to have such an opportunity, so he had to lower his attitude and become humble.

On the third day of June, Gu Jinzhi brought the King of Luyang to the palace and greeted the Empress Dowager.

In Kunning Palace, I actually met the people from the Empress Dowager's family.

The empress dowager's maiden name is Ning.

Yiyan Hou Ning'e is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager had four compatriots and sisters, but only one younger brother. When the late emperor chose her as his queen, he was also considering this, for fear that the foreign relatives would interfere in politics in the future. The Empress Dowager's family was small and the foreign relatives could not become bigger and would not be restrained by the new emperor.

Now, Marquis Yiyan is a casual Marquis.

He brought his wife and children in to greet him today, and happened to meet Gu Jinzhi and King Luyang.

He was very intimate about the King of Luyang, but found that the King of Luyang was very cold and did not know him very much, so he just lie in the empress dowager's arms.

Yiyan Hou Ning'e and Mrs. Ning were both surprised in their eyes.

Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun saw it and knew that they were probably wrong.

The queen mother also asked with a smile: "What's wrong? I don't know my uncle anymore?"

"Xiao Qi said that you should be dignified as a prince and not be close to anyone other than your mother, otherwise they will look down on me." Zhu Zhongjun's voice was full of grievance and he complained to the Queen Mother in a low voice.

The Queen Mother didn't doubt that he was there and burst into laughter.

She praised Gu Jinzhi, and then whispered to Zhu Zhongjun: "Very very, very well! Zhongjun has done a good job. I will listen to Xiaoqi more in the future."

Zhu Zhongjun then showed a relieved smile and focused his head.

Following the King of Luyang, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor also called Gu Jinzhi Xiaoqi in person.

Yiyanhou and Mrs. Ning didn't know what happened, so they stood there awkwardly.

The Queen Mother said, "Sit down."

When Yiyan Hou Ning'e was walking, his left shoulder was slightly tilted and his legs seemed to be swelling, so Gu Jinzhi looked at him twice more.

Because it was in the Kunning Palace of the Queen Mother, she didn't say anything.

Zhu Zhongjun saw Gu Jinzhi's expression in his eyes and secretly remembered it in his heart.

Everyone sat down with the primary and secondary points. Gu Jinzhi and Yiyanhou and his wife sat opposite each other. She couldn't help but look at Yiyanhou a few times, and her eyes fell on his right leg.

Yiyanhou couldn't help but shrink his legs.
