Qingwen's Farming Notes [System]
Chapter 78
After Shui Rong left, Qingwen kept her head down and was thinking. She was thinking about the message S007 left her not long after her return, and she was also thinking about the plum blossom hairpin.One day there were two big pieces of news. Qingwen pulled herself together and prepared to settle the matter of the plum blossom hairpin first.
Shuangqin took a cautious look at Qingwen, and carefully recalled what happened a year ago: "At that time, all the maids and women in the yard were locked up, and no suspicion was found. I don't think anyone in the house stole this hairpin. , but it must have been lost in the mansion. Afterwards, I reported it to Madam Gong and sold all the maids who left the yard without authorization to steal and play tricks. It seems that I thought too simple at the time."
Shuangqin was a bit regretful: "I should have kept that screwdriver at the time, maybe I could ask something." She looked at Qingwen's face and said, "The two of the Wu family also came to the yard that day, and the third Xie family Miss...do you think it could be them..."
"When Xie Ruanruan changed clothes, we were always there. It couldn't be her. I also asked my cousin Wu Gui, and he didn't lie... Maybe, I missed someone..." Qingwen's voice became low. , and said to Shuangqin, "Go outside and inquire about it, listen to some recent news from the public, and reply to me no matter the big or small things."
"Here." Shuangqin responded.
Qingwen rested her chin in one hand, but her thoughts drifted far away.Maybe she doesn't need to do anything, and Shui Rong can take care of everything for her, but she doesn't have the temperament to sit still.Besides, she was negligent at the time, and she would naturally clean up the mess she made.Why does Shui Rong have to help her in everything?Why?
Qingwen sat up, called the little maid to come in, and ordered the servants to prepare the carriage, and she was going out.
Naturally, I went to see Wu Gui, and there were many girls, who belonged to Wu Gui's family, her cousin.
But she was not in a hurry, so she let the carriage take a detour to the poppies on the way.
As soon as she got off the carriage, Han Qi came out to meet her, led her into the back room, and served tea fruit graciously.
Qingwen smiled and asked, "As soon as I came back here, I knew that this shop was well taken care of by you."
Qingwen's words are true, this alley is not lively, there are some elegant places on the left and right, quite a distance away from the lively shops, but when Qingwen entered the door, she felt that the shop was full of people.It's not that there are many customers, but the vague and elegant atmosphere in the store.In the store, there are some women who look like young women, and there are also maids sent by rich people, but most of them have never shouted loudly. The waiter in the shop and the handsome and kind shopkeeper were affected, and unconsciously corrected his posture a little bit, and his tone was a little bit gentle...
After all, Han Qi has experienced a lot. If he was praised by Qingwen in the past, he would have blushed, but now he just smiled, and replied: "I can't deserve the ridiculous praise of the county lord."
Qingwen didn't greet him with polite words, and then listened to Han Qi talk about the situation of the shop in operation for almost half a year.Although Han Qi would go to the princess mansion every season to ask Qingwen to read the account book for her, but after all, Qingwen had never witnessed it with her own eyes. Now that she saw the situation of the shop, she listened with more interest.Sensing her interest, Han Qi explained the doorway for her more carefully.
The two chatted happily.
"The toilet water made according to the county lord's recipe sells well, but unfortunately, the workshop in the Princess Mansion doesn't produce enough every month, and they often run out of stock." Han Qi sighed.
Qingwen smiled and said, "If you have a small quantity, sell it according to the small quantity. If you have too much, it will be worthless. People in the capital have never seen anything, but the picture is fresh for a while."
"It's the villain's bad idea."
Qingwen smiled, but didn't try to expose Han Qi's deliberate humility.After walking around the shop, seeing that there was nothing wrong, he said goodbye to Han Qi and went to Wu Gui's house.
Now Wu Guiding is staying at the grocery store, as for her cousin, according to the news reported by someone, she is alone at home.The person Qingwen is waiting for is her.
The carriage left the lively workshop and the spacious avenue, and came to a small alley.She had walked through this alley many times before. Qingwen picked up a corner of the car window and looked out, and she seemed to be able to hear the sound of children playing and playing.
The ability of the servants of the princess mansion to handle affairs is really comforting sometimes.When the nanny of the palace sent people to resettle Wu Gui, the people below quietly bought the courtyard that Wu Gui and Qingwen had rented, and gave it to Wu Gui.
Qingwen looked at the familiar scenery, the carriage gradually came to a gate, and naturally a little maid stepped forward to call the gate.A woman came to open the door and entered the yard, a timid little girl came up and asked, "Madam is resting in the house."
The little maid next to Qingwen got angry when she heard this, and shouted into the back room: "The county lord is here, so hurry up to greet her. Even if the ice skates are falling from the sky at this moment, she will have to bear it."
"Hey, where's the little hoof? It ran to my mother's house to play wild." A young woman in a pink jacket flashed out of the room. Seeing Qingwen standing in the yard with a cold face, she shook her hands The embroidered handkerchief covered his mouth and smiled, "It's my eyesight that's dumb, so it's the county lord who came."
Many girls came over, took Qingwen's hand affectionately, and led her into the lobby, then turned her head and gouged out the little girl who had offended Qingwen just now: "What a winless little whore, why don't you beat yourself up a little bit?" Mouth, you offended the county mistress, do you not want to live?"
Qingwen brushed her arm away coldly, ignoring her pretentiousness at all, went into the room and sat down by herself.
"Our poor family doesn't even have tea leaves. The little girl brings a pot of water, so that the county magistrate won't get used to drinking it." Duo girls didn't care about Qingwen's cold attitude at all, and they were in Qingwen's place. Sitting opposite, a casual look.
"There's no need for tea." Qingwen said the first sentence.
She stared at Duo girl with both eyes, her eyes seemed to be able to read people's hearts, Duo girl's heart trembled, she couldn't help sitting upright, thinking that she was her cousin after all, she put on airs again.
Qingwen glanced lightly at a trembling jinbuyao stuck in Duo girl's head: "The hairpin on sister-in-law's head looks like a new model from Jinfengge."
The girl smiled triumphantly, seeing that Qingwen was dressed plainly, with nothing more than a plain jade hairpin on her head: "My sister is young, and she doesn't understand that a woman depends on her appearance three times and her dress seven times. This man..." She Just as she was about to say something, the little maid who stood behind Qingwen with her hands tied gave her a hard look, and she swallowed back the words in her throat in fright.
There was a little embarrassment on her face, and Qingwen continued to say unhurriedly: "The last time I made jewelry in Jinfeng Pavilion, it was for a hollowed-out plum blossom hairpin. Jinfeng Pavilion is indeed the best in the capital. A gold and silver shop, that is, the master there can carve a piece of jade into a crystal clear plum blossom, which is as white as snow and lifelike."
Duo girl's expression was a little stiff for a moment, she only felt that Qingwen's eyes were very dazzling, but she seemed to be unable to avoid Qingwen's ubiquitous gaze when she dodged left and right, she forced a guilty laugh: "Isn't it? , the master of Jinfeng Pavilion can't find the craftsmanship even with a lantern."
However, Qingwen had already got the answer she wanted, she sat down and chatted with many girls, and then left.When the carriage had gone a long way, Miss Duo was still beating drums in her heart, always feeling agitated, thinking about the purpose of Qingwen's sudden visit.
Qingwen successfully achieved the purpose of this trip through mind reading, but the look on her face was not very happy.
After a few days, Shuangqin finally replied to Qingwen, hesitantly told the rumors in the capital, and looked at Qingwen anxiously after speaking: "Miss, it is better to report this matter to the princess earlier, otherwise ..."
"It's all rumors, what are you afraid of?" Qingwen casually leaned against the pillow and played with a sachet in her hand. She hadn't finished making the sachet for more than half a year, and she was a little impatient.
Shuangqin was in a dilemma and did not respond for a long time.
"Why, you didn't listen to what I said?"
"Miss, I dare not listen to you, it's just... that's all, I listen to Miss."
Qingwen finally put away the last injection in the sachet, and smiled happily. Seeing that Shuangqin was still worried, she rolled her eyes: "Don't worry, the rumors will disappear in a few days."
Shuangqin obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't dare to say more.Qingwen didn't explain much.
……
Amongst the many palaces, there are two people chatting like an ordinary couple at this moment.
"Your Majesty, it's late at night, go to bed earlier." Concubine Zhou whispered softly.
Tonight, the emperor turned over the signboard of Concubine Zhou, rested in Concubine Zhou's hall, held the lamp and was still reading a book in his hand.Concubine Zhou has been in the palace for many years, and she is used to the emperor's diligent style, but she still adds fragrance to her red sleeves under the lamp like a flower that interprets the language of flowers.
The emperor's eyes flickered slightly, and he put down the folder in his hand, and the eunuch naturally packed the things lightly.He held the hand of Concubine Zhou and stood up: "My concubine is blaming me for neglecting the beauty."
Concubine Zhou Guifei is nearly thirty years old, and there are no wrinkles on her face, only the unique softness and charm of a woman who has given birth. She glanced at the emperor sideways, with a half-smile on her face, which was particularly moving against the dim light. overflow color.
The emperor's eyes dimmed, and the eunuchs and court ladies naturally understood.
After the clouds and rain stopped, the emperor spoke quietly with his arms around Concubine Zhou.
The words in Concubine Zhou's heart rolled back and forth in her throat, and she said softly: "I saw the emperor the day before yesterday, and I was beaten so badly that I was covered in bruises, and my concubine's heart ached when she saw it."
"When I was young, I fought together with my brothers. My sons are no exception. No wonder the masters are strict. If they were not capable, I would have driven them back to their hometowns." The emperor had a rare expression of gentleness. Explained a sentence.
"It's strange that the concubine has shallow eyelids, but the sage has far-reaching thoughts. It's just that the emperor's son is only ten years old, so the concubine will inevitably feel distressed."
The emperor laughed jokingly: "A loving mother often loses her son."
Concubine Zhou babbled for a while, she knew that the emperor didn't dislike her mannerisms, but was willing to listen to these household chores as entertainment, in fact he didn't care what she was talking about.
Seeing that the emperor was engrossed in listening, Concubine Zhou bolstered her courage, and said cautiously: "A few days ago my sister-in-law entered the palace, talking about my niece at home, and asked me to pay more attention to the heroes in the capital..."
Concubine Zhou smiled softly, and the emperor glanced at her with great interest. Concubine Zhou continued: "Zhou Zhi has also reached the age of marriage, so don't blame my sister-in-law for being picky. When the concubine sees the child during the New Year, she still feels confused. It's childish. In a blink of an eye, the children will be married, and the concubines will grow old."
"Speaking of the heroes in the capital, no one can come close to King Jing..." Concubine Zhou sighed.
The emperor's eyes flashed: "Why, the concubine loves him too?"
"I was afraid that he would look down on my Zhiniang."
The emperor laughed: "It's possible, this kid is very cunning."
The next day, the emperor recruited Shui Rongzuo to finish his official duties, and suddenly kept him for dinner.The emperor's gift of food is naturally a supreme honor, but Shui Rong has a calm expression on his face.During the dinner, the emperor stared at his face left and right, and suddenly asked: "How about I point out the niece of Concubine Zhou's family to you?"
Shuangqin took a cautious look at Qingwen, and carefully recalled what happened a year ago: "At that time, all the maids and women in the yard were locked up, and no suspicion was found. I don't think anyone in the house stole this hairpin. , but it must have been lost in the mansion.
