"My brother is a filial man. Every time he leaves the house, he will go to see his mother first. Naturally, the nanny next to him will also know about it. This gives the enemy an opportunity."
"This damn slave! "
Qu Shaoya never expected that someone around her mother would betray her. That person was Grandma Shang, who had watched her grow up. She said that she didn't have any sympathy for her.
The little girl's eyes were red with grievance. It would be fine if she were any other servant or maid, but why is it an old man who has been with him for more than ten years?
Fortunately, when my brother and sister Jiang were assassinated, they met the Shen family. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous. Not to mention the marriage between the Qu and Jiang families, they would be considered lucky if they did not become enemies.
Cheng Xi saw that she was so angry, so this case must have been concluded at the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.
"How did Marquis Wu An deal with it?"
"Aunt Shang and one of the maids involved were beaten to death. The second aunt refused to plead guilty and even took out her grandmother. Due to the She is also her father's cousin He also had merit in raising children, and was sent to Zhuangzi by his father for retreat. "
Even if the second aunt is with a son and a daughter, she must give her some face, otherwise the young master of the Wu'an Hou Mansion will never be able to respect her outside. beginning.
Although Qu Shaoya was indignant at this result, she also knew that it was the safest. Qin Nan had grown up in Beijing and was used to seeing such fights in the inner courtyards of big aristocratic families. Hearing this, Not much to say.
Shen Xingqi was exposed to the twists and turns in this circle for the first time. Her expression did not reveal much but she was not very calm in her heart. How could such a big thing as assassinating the future prince and his wife be just a matter of killing a few accomplices?
It’s the most ridiculous thing in the world!
On the one hand, she was secretly glad that her brother was so kind to her sister-in-law and that such a thing would never happen in the future. The Shen family's business was small and there was nothing to argue about. Little did she know that the Shen family's inns were now all over Dayan.
Cheng Xi’s focus turned strangely.
“Is the concubine born to your second concubine also weak and sickly?”
"How does Sister Cheng know?"
Qu Shaoya was surprised, "She is indeed not in good health. The imperial doctor said that the second aunt's vitality was so damaged when she gave birth to her first child that she was also affected when she became pregnant again."
"." Then it was not influenced by the first child, it was obviously genetics.
Cheng Xi had no intention of using modern knowledge of genetics to subvert the ancient people's three views and world view, so he replied "I guessed" to end the topic, but in his heart he had the intention of tutoring Shen Xingqi.
That’s all. Her little girl must know astronomy and geography, which is unique to the Yan Dynasty!
The major events in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion ended with the second aunt falling out of favor. The reason why Qu Shaoya moved to the hot spring village for vacation was that the winter was too cold, and the atmosphere in the house was too serious and she wanted to relax.
"If Sister Jiang hadn't been preparing for the wedding at home, she would have come with us this time."
"When will the wedding be held at the Marquis Wu'an Mansion?"
"Spring starts next year, and there are only three months left. Sister Jiang is busy embroidering her trousseau."
"Then I have to prepare a backup gift for Sister Jiang."
"If Sister Cheng presents a few jars of good wine, Sister Jiang will definitely be overjoyed!"
"."
The three people opposite twitched their mouths at the same time, a lady who so blatantly asked for a specific gift. It is probably the only one in Beijing.
Qin Nan was speechless for a while, thinking of the unique taste of Shen's fruit wine, and suddenly felt it was natural.
Something seems not right? "The marriage between Mr. Marquis and Sister Jiang is a big event, and a big gift will be prepared at that time."
Cheng Xi likes Qu Shaoya's outspokenness very much, "As for the fruit wine, you will soon find that you can't finish it."
"Huh? Why do you say that?"
< br>"I once signed a contract with the third uncle of the Qin family Through the cooperation agreement, a lot of fruits will be used to make wine during the autumn harvest this year. After fermentation and storage, it will be put on the market in large quantities."
Qu Shaoya was very surprised, "Is there such a thing? Then I will definitely come and buy more. Go back home!”
"I've never heard it mentioned in my family. Could it be that my third uncle plans to give everyone a surprise?"
Even Qin Nan was quite shocked. She knew how much grandpa liked the Shen family's fruit wine, and she had given him some There was a vague mention in the letter sent by the third uncle, but it had no effect at all.
I never expected that the third uncle was holding back his ultimate move!
“How long does it take to brew fruit wine?”
“Generally speaking, it can be drunk after one month of soaking. At this time, the fruit wine already has the aroma of fruit and the flavor of the original wine, but it still has It is far from reaching the point of full integration. It will take at least half a year of precipitation to fully integrate.”
"Third uncle is very meticulous in his work, especially when it comes to his shop. If you want to drink fruit wine, you will have to wait until next spring."
Qin Nan knows his family's temperament well, and after thinking for a moment, he knows that it won't be possible in half a year. It will be on the market.
“In this case, wouldn’t it be similar to the marriage at the Marquis of Wu’an Mansion?”
“Yes, yes, I remember that when my brother gets married, he will send someone to keep an eye on Qin. The wine shop at home.”
“It’s a coincidence.”
Cheng Xi saw that one of them was thoughtful and the other was simply happy, and he knew that their thoughts were not on the same channel at all.
The small group of five people was very lively even though Jiang Yuyao was missing. After eating snacks, the four of them talked for a while. In the afternoon, several young girls experienced the steaming hot springs.
This naturally formed spring is very different from simple hot water. Hot spring water generally contains a variety of active trace elements and has a certain degree of mineralization, which is good for improving physical fitness, enhancing resistance and It helps to prevent diseases to a certain extent, and the effect is huge.
Cheng Xi, wearing small clothes, was lying comfortably on a protruding stone, sighing with satisfaction.
So comfortable~
Why is it not in the dimension where she is omnipotent?
I wonder if adding spring water to the water heater will have the same effect?
Well, I must try it when I go back.
After years of maintenance, the hot spring villa in Wu'an Hou Mansion has become a fairyland on earth. And because the spring was given by the Holy Spirit, it covers an extremely large area. There are seven or eight rooms where you can take a bath alone. , almost every master in the house can get a piece of it, and Qu Shaoya, as a legitimate daughter, occupies the best room.
After washing up, they walked along the Zhuangzi and chatted. The four little girls always had endless topics to talk about when they got together. Shen Xingqi and Qin Nan discussed embroidery patterns and talked endlessly. Qu Shaoya pulled him. Cheng Xi looked at the flowers all the way.
"There is a very powerful gardener in Zhuangzi. He cultivated a camellia that can bloom in eight colors a few days ago. Do you want to take a look?"
"Eight colors? So amazing!"
Cheng Xi has seen colorful camellias in modern times. A pot of eighteen bachelors can be sold for several million and the demand exceeds supply. This kind of potted plant favored by literati and refined scholars may have been more popular in ancient times.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a sea of flowers in front of her. Half of it was occupied by camellias of different varieties and colors, and there were also some particularly good-looking orchids.
