Qing Wu Red House

A distinguished guest came to the Gu's Embroidery Building on Heshun Avenue, where the world's best embroidery hangs. As soon as the girl in lavender entered the gate of the Gu's Embroidery Building, the shopkeeper Yuan Qing greeted her personally: "Purple How come Miss Juan has time to come over? Hurry up, please come inside!"

The person who came was Zijuan. She did not go to Nanshan other courtyard with Daiyu, but came to visit Qingwen.Xueyan wanted to come together, but she and Zijuan were not there, so she was really worried about Daiyu, so only Zijuan came with the little girl.

Zijuan looked at the guests coming and going in the embroidery building with a smile, and said with a smile: "Is the business okay?" Yuan Qing nodded: "Thanks to the blessings of the uncle and aunt, the business is very good, and the embroidery can't be completed every day. , now Qingwen and Muqing have also brought some apprentices, but some people like what they embroidered, so they have to queue up until the next year!"

Yuan Qing took Zijuan up to the second floor, and had already sent someone to notify Qingwen.Sitting in the private room on the second floor, Zijuan said with a smile: "Brother Yuanqing, go get busy, don't call me!" The girl must stay longer today, Qingwen misses you very much!"

Zijuan nodded: "Brother Yuanqing didn't say so, and I would have held on!" As soon as Zijuan finished speaking, she heard Qingwen's hearty laughter from outside.Zijuan glanced sideways, and saw Qingwen wearing a peach red river silk embroidered multicolored gown, with a pair of gold inlaid jade head and face jewelry, her whole body looks like the shadow of Lian's second grandmother.

Zijuan covered her mouth and smiled softly: "Hey, look at our Qingwen, you can know that life is extremely happy just by looking at it. Brother Yuanqing, don't spoil her too much, be careful that one day she will get angry and throw us This embroidery building has been demolished!"

Yuanqing smiled lightly, while Qingwen relentlessly went to make trouble with Zijuan: "Okay, you girl. I haven't seen you for so long. You know how to make fun of me as soon as we meet. Let's see if I will spare you!" Zijuan hid with a smile Open, the slight sadness on his face when he came here was also swept away.

Yuan Qing watched the two laughing and making noise, and quietly left the room.Then Zijuan pulled Qingwen back: "Okay, okay, I'll accompany you, don't make trouble, let's talk for a while!" Qingwen let go of Zijuan, but her mouth was still relentless: "Forget it, how can I, a grassroots person, be able to live next to the princess and the female officer in charge will accompany me, and my blessing will be reduced!"

Zijuan glared at her: "How long have you been married. You are still so unforgiving!" Qingwen laughed and said, "Your theory is strange. My unforgiving tongue has nothing to do with being married. It's you. Why do you have time to come here today? The girl let you out of the palace to see me?"

Zijuan pulled Qingwen to sit by the window, and smiled lightly: "You are not a girl, you can't change your name!" Qingwen patted her mouth: "I'm not used to shouting! "

Zijuan smiled and said: "Yes, Xueyan and I have adapted for a long time before we changed, but Peiwen and Xiaoju adapted the fastest!" Qingwen sighed: "When will they come to the girl's side? .How can it compare with us!"

Zijuan nodded, looked at the bustling crowd outside the window, and said with a sigh: "Time flies so fast, we sisters get married in a blink of an eye, we are not bad, those who are in Rongguo Mansion. You don't even know where you went?"

Qingwen looked at Zijuan, and sighed heavily: "I went to see when the house was raided, Yuanyang and Caixia were all taken into prison together. A few days ago, Renyazi once sold some little girls, I asked People ransomed the girl next to the fourth girl, and let her go back to her hometown with her old lady. In fact, there are not many girls in Rongguo Mansion. When Baoyu had an accident, a group were released. Later, I heard that the mansion was running out of resources and released another batch. There are only a few left!"

Zijuan nodded, lowered her voice and said, "When we were in Yangzhou, we met Fourth Miss. Now Fourth Miss should have lived a peaceful life, which makes people feel relieved!" Qingwen's eyes widened immediately :"Really?"

Zijuan nodded: "Yes, the fourth girl escaped from that disaster, thanks to that hero Liu who escorted her all the way, she was safe!"

Qingwen frowned and said, "But that's called Liu Xianglian?" Zijuan nodded.Qingwen sighed: "It turned out to be him. I heard that Uncle Rizhen was going to tell the third sister Liu Xianglian about this Liu Xianglian, but he was sternly rejected, so he went to the Bai family again. Who knows In the end, something like this happened!"

Zijuan said angrily: "Those two sisters are harmful things, do you know where they are at the moment?" Qingwen laughed and said, "Where else can I go? It should be on the way to that bitter cold place now. The eldest wife really has nothing to fetch water from the bamboo basket this time, fortunately the second girl is already married, otherwise she will be implicated!"

Zijuan said with emotion: "Yes, the second girl is a blessing in disguise. I am afraid that the second master Lian will not let the second girl return to the Sun's house again." Qingwen nodded: "Yes, a few days ago The second grandma mentioned this when she came to get the fabric for the elder sister. It seems that the second master Lian wanted to make Sun Shaozu and the second girl reconcile, but he was in the limelight at the moment, so he didn't go to discuss it. "

Zijuan smiled: "Finally, there is some good news." Qingwen changed her voice and raised her eyebrows: "I also went to see your family for you, but it seems that someone has redeemed them one step ahead of me." Now, I'm living on the other side of Xinghua Hutong, do you want to go and have a look?"

Zijuan was taken aback, although she knew that Shen Ao had redeemed them, but she didn't know that he bought a house for them, so she didn't know what to say for a while.Qingwen gave her a tug: "Go and have a look, I will accompany you. If you don't want to see them, let's take a sneak peek. Your father seems to have changed a lot and has become more down-to-earth!" Shaking his head: "No, when I left Jia's mansion, I had already cut off all friendship with them, so what's there to see now!"

Qingwen sighed: "Look at you, the relationship between father and daughter can be broken if you say so. Even if he has been sorry to your mother, after all these years have passed, you should let it go!" Juan: "Let's go, it's not easy for you to go out of the palace, so don't be stubborn!"

Qingwen pulled Zijuan out of the elegant room, and saw a figure swaying on the stairs from a distance, Qingwen sneered: "I guess you can meet someone you know, don't be surprised!" Zijuan looked at that The figure under the stairs.Astonishingly, it was Xi Ren, the most proud person around Baoyu who used to be, and said softly: "You really accepted her as an apprentice, I really didn't realize that you are so kind!"

Qingwen snorted: "What kind of apprentice is not an apprentice? It's just doing some rough work in this embroidered building. Not only her, but Yinger who is beside Miss Bao is also there. That day, Xue's family was in chaos overnight. My son cried and begged me to take her in, so I put her and Xiren here."

Zijuan warned: "They are not easy to get along with, you should be careful!" Qingwen nodded: "Don't worry, I will save it! The rules of this embroidery building are very strict, and they will not be tolerated."

Qingwen walked down the stairs with Zijuan on her arm.The attacker pretended to be just passing by, bowed his head and saluted: "I have seen Mrs. Zijuan!" Qingwen glanced at Zijuan with a smile, and then said: "Why did you come here? The next thing Are you all done?" Xiren gritted his silver teeth lightly, but still had a harmless smile on his face: "It's still a little short, I just heard that Miss Zijuan is here, and it's a strange idea that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I took the liberty to come forward. Come and see!"

Zijuan said softly: "I'm sorry for your troubles. Go get busy!" Saying this, she wanted to leave.But Xiren quickly took a step forward, stood in front of Zijuan, and knelt down without any explanation: "I have something to ask, and I ask Miss Zijuan to help me because of the old sisterhood." Put it. Even if I am a cow and a horse, I dare not forget Miss Zijuan's great kindness!"

Zijuan frowned slightly, a little wondering what Xiren needed to ask her, but she remembered that Xiren's family was not born in a family.It's just ordinary people, so it's possible that they were also implicated in this incident.

Qingwen also narrowed her eyes, looking at Xiren suspiciously, not knowing what this person was planning.But she was afraid that Zicuckoo would be fooled.Still taking the lead, he said: "What do you need to ask her to help you? Your brother just fined some money this time. Didn't you go home well?"

Xiren wept emotionally: "Ma'am, I don't know something. On the surface, my brother was only fined some money. It seems that he didn't suffer any crimes. But there is no place for people to stay in the prison. He has been pulled out long ago." I can't do anything lying on the bed now. There are old and young in my family, and two younger sisters who are waiting to get married. How can I afford my brother's medical expenses!"

Zicuckoo frowned even tighter, thinking that the attacker didn't have a good idea.Then he took out a piece of silver from his purse and put it in Xiren's hand: "I came out of the palace in a hurry, I didn't bring anything with me, let me help you first!"

Xiren felt that the ingot of silver was very hot, so he grabbed Zijuan's hand with one hand and Zijuan's clothes hem with the other, and said bravely, "How can I accept your silver? It's not easy for you. I heard Say, there is a shortage of maids in the palace, please help me, let me work next to Miss Lin, even if it's just a rough girl!"

Zijuan chuckled, and pulled out her hand: "Miss Xiren is thinking too much, I'm just a servant of the Crown Princess, but I can't be the master of the Crown Princess. Besides, anyone in the palace who wants to enter is free Can I get in? I can't help you with this, you'd better think of another way!"

Xiren frowned slightly, and said not only intentionally or unintentionally: "We have been together since we were young, so what if we help each other?" Zijuan glared at Xiren, and did not speak any more.Qingwen looked at Xiren amusedly, and thought: This person is really restless, no wonder there hasn't been any trouble in Xiulou for so long, so he is waiting here!

Qingwen didn't pay attention to Xiren anymore, and got into the carriage that had been prepared long ago with Zijuan on her arm.It's just that Qingwen left with her front foot, and Xiren left the embroidery building with her back foot, and turned to a side alley, where a nun was waiting for her.

The nanny stared at Xi Ren, and said sharply: "Have you got it?" Xi Ren said with a little trembling, "It's already stuck to her clothes, but is this thing really useful?" The nanny smiled coldly. Said: "Whether it is useful or not, you will know if you look at it!" After saying that, the nun turned around and left.Xiren looked at the nanny's back in surprise, took two quick steps and grabbed her: "I've done my work, you can let my brother go!"

The nun shook off Xi Ren's hand in disgust: "Go home and have a look, your brother has been freed a long time ago!" Xiren slowly let go, watching the nun disappear out of the alley before raising his hand. Foot walked to his home.Unexpectedly, some bees or something flew from somewhere, and they rushed towards her, startled, and screamed loudly.But when the nearby people heard the movement and rushed over, what they saw was already a bruised corpse.

That day in a private house in Shangjing City, seven people from one family died at the same time. Ying Tianfu sent people to investigate and found that they had eaten unclean food and were poisoned.That's how the matter came to an end.

Qingwen didn't know that something had happened to Xiren, she was still thinking that when she returned to Xiulou, she would definitely let Xiren go home, such a dangerous person, it's better not to stay by her side.It seems that I am really kind. I wanted to give her a place to live, but who knows that she is so ungrateful.

Xinghua Hutong is still very close to Heshun Street. Zijuan and Qingwen sat in a green carriage and stopped at the corner of Xinghua Hutong.Qingwen raised the curtain slightly, pointed to a simple house and said, "That's your father's house. Although it's a little small, it's a shelter from the wind and rain. I sent someone to investigate secretly. The house deed is all in your father's name, and the person who saved your father has done a good deed. It's just that I didn't find out who it is!"

Zijuan looked at the small courtyard, saw the two younger sisters born to the stepmother and a little boy playing in front of the door, and was actually very grateful to Shen Ao in her heart.Qingwen pushed her: "You really don't want to go down and take a look?" Zijuan shook her head: "No, they live a good life like this, once I show up, it will make them greedy."

Qingwen actually likes Zijuan's transparency. Most of the time, Zijuan just doesn't say anything, but she knows everything in her heart.Just like when the girl took her deed of sale from the old lady, she immediately gave all the money and jewelry she had accumulated over the years to her father, stating that she would sever contact.From now on, everything in the family has nothing to do with her. She is already a servant of the Lin family and can no longer help the family.

Her father was still open to seeing Qian at that time, and with the stepmother's encouragement, he agreed immediately.Qingwen didn't know if Zijuan's father regretted his decision that day when the Lin family got better and better.But he is not good in every way, and one thing is worthy of recognition, that is, he has never taken the initiative to find Zijuan for so many years.

Qingwen was thinking about things randomly, and suddenly saw something wrong with Zijuan's expression, followed Zijuan's line of sight, and saw a very abrupt person appeared at the door of the small courtyard, which seemed a little out of place with this small courtyard of ordinary people .
