Chapter 269 Dragon Boat Festival(1/2)

When I was holding the lights, the pomegranate courtyard and the west wing were covered with red colors, and the figures were glowing, and laughter continued. There were also lights in the bedroom on the east side of the landlord, but it was quiet.

Second Grandma Qi sat on the bed, frowned slightly. Dong'er, Yan's family and two little girls stood under the ground.

"Go and have a look." Grandma Qi ordered to a little girl.

The little girl turned around and went out and came back in a short while.

"Go back to grandma, the lights have been turned off in the wing room." The little girl replied to Grandma Qi's second grandma.

The second grandma Qi's face looked even more ugly. Today is the day when Qi Xiu takes a concubine, so it is natural for Qi Xiu to rest in the wing room. However, she is the main room and has been working on this matter for a day. Qi Xiu should come to the room and sit down to give her enough face, instead of not coming out as soon as she enters the wing room.

Grandma Qi sent out both little girls, leaving only Dong'er and Yan's family.

"Go, listen, have the Second Master rested?" Second Grandma Qi's eyes swept over the two of them, and pointed at the Yan family's instructions.

The Yan family raised their heads and received the meaningful look of the second grandma Qi. They understood it and came out of the room.

The curtains had fallen from the west wing room, no longer as bright as before. Yan's family came out of the upper room, and saw no one around, and walked down the window and gently walked to the window of the west wing room. She tried to look in through the window, but saw nothing, so she had to put her ear on the window and listen carefully to the movement inside.

"My heart, I'd better go to the room to rest." It was the second master Qi Xiu's somewhat sticky voice.

A strange look flashed across the Yan family's face. This tone once sounded in her ears.

"I don't want to leave, I'm alone afraid." It was Cai's sweet voice.

"I can't bear to leave you, but if I stay, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."

"I can't bear to leave my family, so I don't need to leave. I serve me."

Next was a rumbling sound.

Yan's family stood up, squinted their eyes and looked inside through the crack of the window. Perhaps because they were used to the darkness, they could tell the difference between two figures on the big bed in the house. The second master Qi Xiu leaned against the pillow and lay on the bed. Cai was wearing a silver-red gauze dress, kneeling beside Qi Xiu, and lowered his head.

Qi Xiu groaned and twisted his face towards the window

The Yan family was shocked and shortened again.

Qi Xiu Gao's first heart and soul came from inside the house, accompanied by heavy breathing and louder and louder slap.

After listening for a while, the Yan family's cheeks flushed and he spat gently.

After a while, Qi Xiu's low growl came from the room.

"Master, is my service well?" Cai's voice was so charming that water almost dripped out of water.

"You are my life, you have taken my life. No, you are my life."

"Didn't you say you still have to go to the room?"

"Today is a good day for you and me. What should I do when I go to the room?"

The Yan family flashed away from the window and returned to the room lightly.

In the bedroom, the second grandma Qi looked as if she was too naughty and listened to the Yan family’s narrative, and couldn’t help but snorted coldly, unconsciously tearing the handkerchief in her hand.

"Why obey the orders of his parents? It turns out that he and these two are old acquaintances!" Grandma Qi said hatefully, "Take me like a fool."

Dong'er brought a cup of tea and came in from outside. Seeing that the second grandma Qi was so angry, she didn't dare to come forward for a moment, so she just placed the tea cup on the low table beside the wall.

Second Grandma Qi's face was gloomy and sunny, and finally she seemed to have made up some idea.

"There are many people around Erye who are always aware of this, but they hide us so much. I am infatuated and stupid. Are you all dead?"

Dong'er and Yan's family both lowered their heads and dared not speak.

Second Grandma Qi took a breath and waved to the Yan family to come.

"Your man is following the second master. Why don't you tell me the news after you know the news?" The question was quite pleasant.

But the Yan family was so scared that they knelt on the ground.

"Grandma, my man is just a tiring man. Thanks to his grandmother's support, he found an errand with the second master. The second master knew that the servant had received his grandmother's grace and did not regard him as a confidant. The ones around him were not thousands or tens of thousands of people, and he would be used to coaxing him an honest person. The servant was so arrogant because he was not good at it, and he didn't know how much he was frustrated." The Yan family said pitifully.

Second Grandma Qi looked at the Yan family, "When you get up and talk, I don't blame you."

But the Yan family didn't dare to get up.

"Forget it, you will be with them all by the second master. I will leave this errand to you. I will find out the future and the whole story clearly. You will be considered as a punishment for your merits." Second Grandma Qi said again.

The Yan family was a little hesitant and did not agree immediately.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Grandma Qi's mouth, asking Dong'er to stuff the silver to the Yan family.

"When the new grandma comes in, the bird naturally chooses the prosperous place to fly. You are a smart person, and maybe you have such an idea. I have never forced people, I just let you go."

The Yan family was busy kowtowing, "The slave should serve his grandmother. Everything about him is given by his grandmother. The slave is a dog of his grandmother, and he only obeys his grandmother's orders."

Grandma Qi sneered.

"Go, quietly, don't disturb the second master. If this matter is done, your benefits will be indispensable."

The Yan family's busyness lowered their heads and retreated.

Dong'er turned around and held the tea on the short table in her hand, intending to hand it to Grandma Qi. When she looked up, she saw a sinister smile on her face. She felt creepy and almost threw the tea bowl to the ground.

"What a frivolous thing to do? Why don't you bring the tea here?"

……………………

On the fifth day of the fifth month, there is a dragon boat race on Qiuyue Lake in the west of the capital. Princess Kang sent someone to send a post to ask Xun Qingran to watch it together.

Xun Qingran then took a post to ask Rong and Mrs. Qi Er to instruct.

"This is a very lively thing. If I am a few years younger, I will go too." Rong smiled and said, "Since the princess has posted the post, you can go. Remember to come back before the family dinner."

The dragon boat race started on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, but the family banquet in Qi Mansion was in the evening, so naturally I was able to come back.

"Will you bring all your sisters with you." Rong thought for a while and said, "Let them go and see the fun too."

"Okay." Xun Qingran quickly agreed, "I was just thinking about telling the old lady that I would take them with me."

"Well," Rong nodded, "Take Jie Er away with her again. She is not young anymore, so she should go out to see her."

Rong called Xun Qingran to his side again, "You are a sister-in-law, take good care of them, be more careful." Rong said and patted Xun Qingran's hand, as if he had pointed.

Xun Qingran understood in her heart, so she naturally responded with a smile.

…………

Early on the fifth day of the fifth month, Xun Qingran and Qi You both got up early. After having breakfast in Ningyuanju, they were dressed and asked someone to carry Xuan'er and Fusheng. Today, they naturally had to bring them. Xuan'er was wearing a goose yellow dress with embroidered shoes of the same color under his feet, and Fusheng was wearing a royal blue robe with deer-skin boots. The two children stood there, with pink carvings, as if they were golden boys and jade girls walking down from the painting.

After cleaning up here, Mai Le also brought people there. Xun Qingran came to Yinian's residence. Yan Mingyue, Rong Yunnuan, Qi Wanyan, and Zhen Jie'er had already cleaned up and were waiting for Rong's family. Everyone said goodbye to Rong's family and others and took a bus at the second gate.

Xun Qingran took his two children to a carriage, Yan Mingyue and others took two carriages, Maiya took his carriage, and the girl and the others who were serving him took three carriages. Qi You rode a horse, and the servants who were walking along the way, and came to Qiuyue Lake in a mighty way.

Just sitting in the car, you can hear the more and more lively sounds outside. The carriage took half an hour before slowly stopping.

Xun Qingran got off the carriage and saw clearly that the carriage was parked by the lake, with a three-story pavilion in front of it, with three big words "Deyue Tower" written on the plaque in the middle, which was exactly where the Princess Kang County wrote on the post.

Qi You got off the horse and walked over. The wife of the Prince Kang's Mansion had already been facing each other with people in front of the building, leading everyone to the third floor. Prince Kang and Prince Kang were already waiting in the corridor.

Xun Qingran and Qi You hurriedly stepped forward to greet each other, "Prince, Prince, how can the princess be?"

"Okay, okay." Princess Kang County bowed her knees and returned the favor to Xun Qingran, and held Xun Qingran's hand, "Why are you still so polite?" As she said, her reproachful eyes swept on Qi You's face.

Xun Qingran glanced at Qi You, and quickly changed her words with a smile, "Sister Luanyu."

"That's right." Princess Kang smiled and called a little boy standing behind him, "Come and meet your uncle Qi and Aunt Qi."

"I have met Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi." The little boy came over to salute.

"This is my Zi'er." Princess Kang County said to Xun Qingran.

It turned out to be the young prince of Prince Kang's Mansion. Xun Qingran had to look at him a few more times. The child looked about seven or eight years old, with eyebrows and phoenix eyes, which was very similar to Prince Kang's.

Everyone entered the room. Xun Qingran called Malt, Rong Yunnuan and Yan Mingyue, introduced them to Princess Kang County one by one, and asked the nurse to carry Fusheng Haoxuan'er. The two babies had been taught and saluted to Prince Kang and Princess Kang County in a regular manner.

Princess Kang was so happy that she hugged Xuan'er in her arms, "I prayed to God and Buddha everywhere, hoping to get such a little girl, who is well-behaved and obedient."

"Is this Fusheng?" Prince Kang's eyes fell on Fusheng.

Qi You nodded and waved to Fusheng. Fusheng took two steps forward. Prince Kang bent down, looked at Fusheng for a while, then raised Fusheng up again, and said a few good words in a row.

Princess Kang was also looking at Fusheng, especially in Fusheng's eyes for a while.

"It's good." Princess Kang County said to Xun Qingran.

Xun Qingran smiled and said nothing.

There was a close-fitting girl from Princess Kang next to him, who brought two trays to him, as a gift for Fusheng and Xuan'er. There was also a gift for Xun Qingran who gave the gift for Princess Kang.

"We have had those rituals long ago, and they are better than anything else." Princess Kang thanked Xun Qingran, "What do you think after I let it go?"

"It's a different scenery from the capital." Xun Qingran just said.

Princess Kang smiled, "Everyone said that there was wilderness, but I still envy you."

As a descendant of the royal family, Prince Kang didn't think about being released as an official. Even if the emperor sent him out of the capital to handle the work, he rarely had the principle of bringing his wife and children.

After sitting for a while, Princess Kang made an excuse to pull Xun Qingran to the side and talk.

"Xiao Qi told us about Ying Ze and Ning Xin. We were really surprised. At that time, they were all children, who would have thought of that?" Princess Kang sighed and said.

After a while, he said, "I won't hide it from you. At that time, my family and Danfeng had already made a marriage in private, and they both thought that Xiao Qi and Ning Xin would be the same as us."
