Chapter 375 Tea makes me sad, and I feel even more sad
Ji Bolian had so many thoughts in his heart that he couldn't hold back this emotion.
Ji Qingwu said softly: "Drink some tea first to moisten your throat."
Ji Bolian held the tea cup in his hand but did not drink it. The temperature of the tea warmed the palm of his hand.
"It's better to get the child back as soon as possible. It's better to keep it with you than to leave it to someone else to take care of it. The child can't live without its mother." His tone was much softer than before.
Ji Qingwu nodded. She didn't want to confront Father Ji, especially after he helped her solve such a big trouble.
But she was still uncomfortable in her heart. When they first met, he accused her in front of the whole family, which made her unable to think about getting close to him.
Seeing that she agreed, Ji Bolian stood up and said to Mr. Qiao: "Let's go."
Mr. Qiao raised his head in surprise and said, "Master just left like this? Do you still remember why we came here?"
Ji Bolian saw Xiao Wu and asked a few questions about his granddaughter. He had already forgotten the serious business of coming here.
After hearing this, Ji Qingwu asked: "Mom, what are you doing here?"
Qiao smiled and told her the good news.
"Your eldest brother is coming back."
Ji Qingwu's eyes lit up and he said, "Really?"
Since Ji Changlin had a fight with Yuchi Lianping at the palace banquet last time, he was sent to the embassy in Nanchu.
Logically speaking, one cannot return at will without an edict. Could it be that Emperor Wu Su gave the order?
Ji Bolian had really forgotten the news that his eldest son was coming back. If Qiao hadn't reminded him, he would have gotten up and left.
He said: "This morning, the emperor granted permission for your eldest brother to go home to visit relatives and have a month's leave."
Thinking that Ji Changlin would be able to return home in a few days, Qiao's smile spread across her brows and she said, "Your father also has such a long vacation, so our family can be reunited."
It was rare for the family to be so complete, and the corners of Ji Qingwu's lips also raised.
Ji Changlin loved her very much, and she was happy from the bottom of her heart to see her eldest brother.
Moreover, the two of them could just talk about what they wrote in the letter to him a few days ago in person, and maybe they could see Lan Ling again.
Ji Qingwu muttered: "Brother is coming back. I remember that he likes to drink Zhuyeqing the most. There is no such wine in Nanchu. I asked Lanzhi to go to the winery to make an appointment for a few bottles. That wine is difficult to buy."< br>
Qiao smiled and said: "If your elder brother knew, he would be extremely happy."
Ji Bolian interjected: "I heard that the chrysanthemum wine in Lin'an is also very good."
The air was silent for a moment, and Ji Qingwu said nothing. Qiao said after a while: "At your age, drinking alcohol will harm your health, but drinking tea is the best way to maintain your health."
Ji Bolian took the warm tea and drank it in one gulp. When the tea entered his heart, he felt even more sad.
Ji Qingwu was not only lifted from the ban, but his treatment in Wutong Garden was also improved a lot.
Lanzhi walked out and came back sideways.
"Fifth Miss, when I went to pick up the regular money from Butler Li today, he gave me a big bag. It is the largest bag in every hospital."
Ji Qingwu looked at the silver bag held in Lanzhi's hands and found that it was indeed a full bag.
Asked: "Why do they occur frequently?"
Lanzhi didn't think about this question, so she gave it to her and continued: ".I didn't ask."
It would also be a good thing to give him more money, but Ji Qingwu didn't think much about it.
Not long after, Lanzhi went to the kitchen to get lunch.
Those who went empty-handed came back with a full load. Lanzhi ordered the little maids behind to put down their food boxes, and four large boxes were filled to the brim.
Ji Qingwu was holding the mortar, and the pestle in her right hand stopped. She looked up and saw Lanzhi placing a table full of dishes.
She raised her eyebrows and asked: "Is it a holiday?" Lanzhi replied: "Miss Fifth, this is specially prepared by Grandma Zhang in the kitchen for us in Wutong Garden. She is envious of people in other courtyards."
Ji Qingwu put down the pestle and walked over to take a closer look.
This dish is not homely. The shark fin, sea cucumber and scallops on the plate are all precious ingredients.
It is common sense to add one or two meaty dishes. This is definitely not something that the cook can do to please her.
Lin'an is not close to the sea, so these delicacies are not available to the dignitaries in the imperial city. This regulation is comparable to the imperial meal, and must have been ordered by the superiors.
Ji Qingwu thought it was arranged by Mr. Qiao, and clicked his tongue: "Did the Ji Mansion make such a big profit this year? I haven't heard of an increase in property prices, or of which shop is doing well."
"The food served here by Fifth Miss is specially made, and the old lady also added one or two dishes."
Lanzhi said mysteriously: "I heard that it was all ordered by the master, especially the yellow croaker in the soup, which the master brought back from outside after going to court."
Ji Qingwu hasn't tasted these fresh food for a long time, and it doesn't matter who arranged it, as long as it's not poisonous.
She washed her hands, ate and drank, and lazily tinkered with the powder in front of the window.
Two more maids came in from outside, carrying two boxes.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Lanzhi went to answer it, and after seeing clearly what it was, she laughed so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes.
"Miss Fifth, these are Mu Fengju's new clothes this year."
A large box, bigger than her current suitcase.
Ji Qingwu's hand holding the brown paper to pour the medicinal powder shook and he almost poured it out of the porcelain bottle.
Lanzhi was busy, displaying clothes in front of Ji Qingwu one by one. The clothes were of various colors, the styles were elegant and charming, and the fabrics were gorgeous but not tacky.
There was another box next to it, and Ji Qingwu asked: "What is this?"
Lanzhi looked at the engraving on the lid of the box and said in surprise: "This is the jewelry head of Dequanzhai."
After opening the box, the sunlight hit it, and Ji Qingwu's eyes were dazzled by the large red gem on it.
Ji Qingwu said: "Who sent this here?"
The two little maids said in unison: "It was all ordered by the adults."
Ji Qingwu took a breath. She felt how much money it cost and how flattered she felt.
She closed the stopper of the porcelain bottle, stood up and asked, "Where is Mr. Ji?"
*
Shou'an Hall.
After Gibren returned home, whenever he was free, he would come to have dinner with the old lady at noon.
Mrs. Ji looked at the rich dishes in front of her, and added a small yellow croaker, and said: "Berlian, I am old and can't eat too much fishy and greasy food."
Having said that, I also ate two of these fragrant little yellow croakers.
Ji Bolian personally served a bowl of vegetable soup to the old lady. Mrs. Ji took it and said: "If you are really filial and want to please me, don't force Qingwu to stay at home."
"You haven't been at home for a long time, and I don't know Qingwu's temperament. She grew up outside, and she is high-spirited and impetuous. Compared with her fourth sister, she is not even a little bit worse."
Ji Bolian's hand holding the vegetables paused, and his expression became solemn.
The old lady sighed and said: "Since Qingwu has married into the Wei family, let her go. She agreed to it at the beginning. Now that she has brought her home, the whole city has been talking about it."
"You intervened in this matter, but you can only control her for a while. You can't control her forever. Moreover, in two months, you will leave again and leave this mess to your wife and me."
The corners of Ji Bolian's mouth moved, and just as he was about to speak, Grandma Feng's voice came from the door.
Someone is coming.
The second update will be a little later~
