Individually?

"Who said that?" It was still Liu Er who was questioning, and she was more nervous than Qingyi.

"Naturally...... The third young master said. Chang Xi saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and hurriedly said, "Liu Er Gu Niang, why don't you and I work together that day to protect the two masters in a hidden place?" ”

Liu Er turned around and consulted the woman who had been silent beside her, "Miss......"

Listening to Liu Er's aggrieved tone, Qingyi understood what she meant, that girl probably didn't want her master to fly alone and leave her alone.

However, the ancient Qixi Festival is one of the few festivals where women can go out in a grand manner, and for women, it is more grand and lively than the Dragon Boat Festival, and it is also the best opportunity for women to "fall in love freely".

Although, Qingyi was still apprehensive about traveling alone with Qi Lianchen. However, she didn't want to take away Liu'er's right to move freely.

So, she chuckled and said, "That's Changxi, don't lose it with the two of you." ”

"Don't worry, Third Young Lady!"

Under Liu Er's white eyes, Chang happily kissed a few of his black fists, and was so happy that he got carried away.

Bamboo is indeed happy.

Moreover, it was just found out, and it was already very sad.

At the small dinner of the Qi family in the evening, I saw Zhu'er sitting at the side table eating some vomit, except for the third lady, Qingyi and the men who could still sit upright as usual, the other women who didn't know what they were thinking, or jealousy, listening to Zhu'er's exaggerated pantothenic sound, they couldn't sit still.

In the end, the eldest young lady took the lead and didn't hold back, and dropped the chopsticks with a "snap", "It's so disgusting, and I can't let people eat!" Suddenly, it became the focus of the audience.

Qingyi glanced at her deeply, in fact, sitting here, she was the one who was the least qualified to be angry. As a wife, she has been married for many years and has achieved nothing, and now she is preempted by her husband's partial house, if she is virtuous, she should endure it, and like the third lady next to Zhu'er, she is concerned about it with cold and warmth.

Now, when the young lady does this, the eldest son's mother and son must hate her even more, the days in each room, cold and warm, she knows it, isn't she doing this to make her life sad in the future?

Sure enough, when the eldest prince saw this, he yelled at her directly in front of everyone, "If you don't want to eat and no one stops you, you can stand aside and help serve your father and aunt to eat!" ”

The eldest young lady was stunned by the yelling, and looked at her husband with teary eyes, and everyone looked at the eldest prince in surprise. No one would have thought that the eldest son, who is kind and angry on weekdays, turned out to be so terrifying.

And the eldest prince himself turned his wheelchair, turned to the side table, squeezed between his own mother and Zhu'er, and said softly, "Isn't the thing appetizing?" Let's drink some light gruel. ”

Between the wife and the concubine, the difference in treatment is worlds apart, and the young lady is more and more aggrieved, but there is no one to cry, so she looks at Master Qi silently with tears.

Looking at her eyes, Qingyi really sighed in her heart: This woman is dead! He made such a hint of his eyes.

Fortunately, Master Qi is sitting firmly on Mount Tai, for the dispute between his daughter-in-law, he does not raise his eyelids, lowers his eyes to eat, and occasionally raises his head to say to the maids, "Go and add another bowl of black chicken and bird's nest soup to the second lady, she loved to drink this when she was in Huailiancheng." ”

is a "affectionate and righteous" husband, if it weren't for the fact that he knew a little about the inside story of Master Qi, he was really frightened by his tender policy, and more than 20 years have passed, and he still remembers what he liked to eat when one of his concubines was pregnant!

People who can grasp people's hearts can always remember the most important details and attack people's hearts at critical moments.

Seeing that a family banquet seemed to have turned into a husband's mercy banquet, the second son was not to be outdone, raised his head and said to the maid, "Also add a bowl to Aunt Fei, after that miscarriage, her health has not been very good." ”

At this moment, the second young lady's face turned green, and her expression was the same as that of the aggrieved young lady.

What kind of world is this, is the concubine in charge?

Qingyi raised her head, looked at the silent tears of the eldest young lady on the left, and looked at the death of the second young lady biting the ivory chopsticks on the right, and decided to pretend to be deaf and bury her head in eating, who knows, she just picked up the chopsticks and was about to pick up the chicken neck in the Rose Soul Oil Chicken dish in front of her, but found that two pairs of chopsticks grabbed her at the same time and stretched it into the plate, and coincidentally clamped the last chicken leg left in the plate.

She blinked and watched as the two pairs of chopsticks tacitly held the chicken leg together and brought it to her bowl.

Brushing the floor, Qingyi's face was completely red, she stared at the chicken leg in the bowl, and she couldn't wait to bury the sand immediately.

When the eldest and second young ladies at the main table were despised by their husbands, but she had two sons who served her vegetables ...... at the same time, without looking up, she could imagine what kind of vicious eyes the eldest and second young ladies would cast on her.

And if it was only her husband who served her food, it would be understandable, but ......

"Thank you, Fourth Brother." The one who played the round was Qi Lianchen on her right, "I know that the fourth brother wants to honor his father, but I have a lot of strength, you didn't rob me, and I was led by me and handed it to Xiao Xu's bowl, right?" ”

This paved the way for the fourth son's discordant and ethical behavior just now, but Qingyi felt that it was not her own affection, just now the fourth prince did see that she was going to pick up the chicken neck, so he grabbed the chicken leg and gave it to her first.

If it were someone else, he would naturally understand the intention of Qi Lianchen's words, but the mind of the fourth prince is a child, and he ......

Just when Qingyi was secretly worried, he didn't expect the fourth prince to pick up a chicken wing with a smile, hand it to Master Qi's bowl from afar, and said in a childlike voice, "Dad, eat vegetables, the third brother is good or bad, grab the chicken leg of Liantang!" ”

Master Qi smiled lovingly, "Liantang is filial, your third brother has married a wife, and there is no father and mother in his heart, or we are the most intimate in Liantang." "To say something is obviously Qi Lianchen, in fact, even with the previous eldest son and the second son also preached,.

Qi Liantang was praised and laughed, and for a while, Qi Lianchen became an unfilial son who forgot his wife and mother, and Qi Liantang became the most filial person in the house.

The table was full of fathers and sons, and no one looked at the eldest young lady and the second young lady.

Maybe others believed Qi Lianchen's words and mistakenly thought that he had forced the fourth son to honor the wrong person in the chicken leg incident just now, but only Qingyi knew that this was strange!

She couldn't help but quietly look at the bright smiling face of the fourth prince, innocent and harmless, but there was no doubt that he understood Qi Lianchen's guidance before he made a move to honor Master Qi, could it be ...... He......

"Xiao Xu, why don't you like the dishes that your husband gave you?"

The slightly displeased voice of the man next to her pulled back her gaze and reverie, and she smiled at Qi Lianchen, "Why, the concubine is too moved, Xianggong, you should also eat more." As she spoke, she picked up a chicken paw and put it in his bowl with a very pretentious gesture.

When Master Qi and the eldest lady saw it, they looked at each other and smiled.

The eldest young lady and the second young lady both had poor faces, but the second young lady concealed it well, and her little face was buried in the rice bowl, which others couldn't really see, while the eldest young lady gritted her teeth fiercely, and even heard the sound of grinding her teeth.

The second son has nothing to do with himself, and no one cares about it.

The fourth prince buried his head in eating, as if he didn't see it, but his lowered eyes were deep.

Everyone didn't pay attention to the fact that the eldest prince who had retreated to the side table before had been silently taking in all this.

It's night, or Qi Lianli's apricot orchard, in the most hidden wing, the faint candlelight adds a bit of ambiguity, and the maid Axia arrived here on time because she received a hint from the eldest son.

Every time she arrived, the eldest prince was already there first, just like before, as soon as she pushed the door in, she twisted it like a beautiful snake, and wrapped it around the man's neck, "The eldest prince, I haven't looked for a slave for so long, and the slave and maid thought you forgot about the slave and maid." ”

The eldest prince Qi Lianxuan snorted coldly, and then grabbed her wrists, pulled her to his legs, and untied the woman's clothes without saying anything.

Ah Xia also cooperated a little eagerly, and took the initiative to sit on his body, although he could only use the same position with this cripple every time, but it was better than nothing, and soon the moans of men and women sounded in the wing......

After the event, Ah Xia took out the prepared silk handkerchief and cleaned up her lower body, while Qi Lianxuan tied her clothes and belts without raising her head, "Recently, has the fourth child drunk medicine?" ”

Because he lowered his head, he didn't see the brief shock after Ah Xia heard the words.

“…… Of course, he drank, and every time the slave watched him finish drinking, he left. Ah Xia lowered her head, seemingly wiping between her legs, but in fact she was hiding her dodging eyes.

Qi Lianxuan was probably not happy with this kind of woman, so he just asked, and didn't look at her face, he turned his wheelchair and moved to the window, "So, do you have the right amount of medicine?" ”

"Don't worry, the eldest prince, the slave won't let the dosage be problematic." Ah Xia stood behind Qi Lianxuan, her face obviously empty.

"Hmm...... Lian Xuan's index finger tapped the armrest of the wheelchair and said half-loudly, "Starting tomorrow, increase the dosage by one-third every day." ”

Increasing the dosage?

…… Be. Ah Xia didn't have any objections, but a look of almost helplessness flashed on her face.

Qi Lianxuan always turned his back to her, looked out the window, didn't know what he was thinking, frowned, and looked solemn, maybe he felt that there was really no other arrangement, Fang Dao, "Okay, you go back, don't let the fourth and fifth mothers find out." ”

"Yes." Ah Xia retreated, but when she walked to the door, she seemed to have decided something, and turned around and said, "When will you accept Xia'er?" ”

Qi Lianxuan finally turned around and looked at her coldly, "Do you have to ask this question every time you come?" Zhu'er is pregnant, my father and mother should not approve of taking a concubine now, you go out first, I will arrange it. - By the way, in a few days it will be Tanabata, and there is a hairpin here, which can be regarded as a gift for you. After saying that, he took out a silver hairpin from his bosom and handed it over, but the person no longer looked at her, but turned his gaze to the window.

Ah Xia took the hairpin and glanced at Qi Lianxuan deeply, with a little complaint, and a little absolute, and then retreated.

She trotted all the way, and when she walked to the lotus pond, she slowed down, looked at the black pool in front of her, suddenly bit her lower lip, and threw the hairpin into it without hesitation.

"Poof—"

With a crisp sound, the hairpin sank, bottomless.

Tanabata

This is indeed the most solemn day of the year for women.

Needless to say, it is more dressed than on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and the most important thing is that this is a big festival for young women.

Unlike the Dragon Boat Festival, the women generally choose to go out after 100 o'clock, or eat some snacks in the downtown until three o'clock later, they will go home, that is, they can play outside for three or four hours.

On this day, Qi Lianchen returned home late in the afternoon, and brought a piece of clothing for Mo Zixu to change into.

It was a willow green dress, and the skirt was a tassel design, compared to the noble lady clothes she wore in the past, this one was quite a bit of an unmarried woman's style.

She was hesitant, but Qi Lianchen threatened, "If you don't change it, your husband won't mind changing your clothes himself." ”

After all, this sentence has a deterrent effect, and Qingyi succumbs.

She took the clothes and returned to the bedroom to change, Liu Er naturally followed in to serve, she didn't want to, that Liu Er saw the unfolded dress, and her face suddenly turned pale.

Sensing the abnormality, Qingyi couldn't help but wonder, "What's the matter, your face is so ugly?" She knew that there was something wrong with the dress, and it was obviously related to the past of her body.

Liu Er easily squeezed out a smile and smiled bitterly.

"It's nothing, the slave just thinks this dress is good-looking, and before the young lady married the third son, there was one that was almost exactly the same, and it was your favorite."

"Yes." Qingyi looked at the bronze mirror, but she didn't have any impression, "Is it because I got married, so this dress was left in the palace and didn't bring it over?" ”

Liu Er said sourly in embarrassment, "Miss, don't ask, it's all in the past, anyway, you can't remember it." ”

Liu Er's expression was really strange, a piece of clothing, could there be any special reason, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, Qingyi frowned and said, "Should it be...... Such a style of dress, that ...... That legendary Qi Lianli also sent me such a piece. ”

Liu Er lowered her head, "Miss is smart." That dress, because the young lady resisted and did not want to marry into the Qi family, was burned by the prince and the princess as a punishment. ”

"That's right."

If you burn it, you will burn it, she doesn't feel anything about a dress, but today on this day, Qi Lianchen gave her such a similar dress, is it really just a coincidence?

Changing into this dress, Mo Zixu took a picture in the mirror, whether it was Qi Lianli or Qi Lianchen's eyes, they were quite good, her temperament and complexion, under the backdrop of this dress, looked a little unworldly, elegant like an elf.

When she was about to open the curtain of the bedroom, Liu Er suddenly called behind her, "Miss." ”

Qingyi looked back puzzled, "What, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Er bit her lower lip, as if she was hesitating whether to say it or not, but in the end, she still chose to confess.

"Miss, actually, you and Young Master Li met at last year's Qixi Festival."

"Yes." It's so coincidental.
