"I used to practice with my grandpa at home, but it's different from the young master's boxing style." Bi'er shook her head slightly and said.
Jia Heng was surprised for a moment, then suddenly realized, but he remembered that the maid in front of him was from a place like Shandong, and she knew some boxing skills, but it was nothing. He said: "This is my internal boxing style, and I have absorbed some of the power of Wing Chun. Techniques, the boxing techniques you learned before are naturally very different."
She withdrew her fists and looked at the maid Bi'er. She saw that as she kept up with her diet and nutrition in the past few days, the little girl's cheeks were no longer as sallow as before, and her cheeks were rosy. Her eyes had completely disappeared from the numbness and dullness of a slave, and she also had a bit of sparkle. , with a thought in his mind, he asked: "How long have you been practicing boxing? Let me see if you can do it."
Bi'er was silent for a moment and said: "My sister and I have been practicing boxing with my grandfather since we were seven or eight years old. My sister practiced boxing for two or three years and was busy doing laundry and cooking, and then it was abandoned. I practiced for about four or five years, and then the year before last, my grandfather It’s gone, and the fields have been getting worse every year since then. My father said that practicing boxing requires a lot of food and a large appetite, so he won’t let me practice every day.”
Being poor in literature and rich in martial arts, he naturally had a lot of food to practice boxing. Shandong and Henan have been suffering from drought for many years. It is strange for poor people to let little girls boxing because they have no strength to use it in the fields.
Jia Heng said: "No wonder."
In order not to be separated from her sister, this girl actually escaped several times. It seems that if she didn't have some cleverness and skill, it would not have been so easy to escape from a wealthy family where servants and servants were closely guarding her.
When Jia Heng thought about this, the thoughts in his mind became more and more intense. This maid Bi'er has martial arts skills. If she can be treated better and stay by Ke Qing's side for protection, he can feel more at ease.
There is no way, the daughter-in-law is too beautiful and will inevitably attract people to covet her.
Especially last night, he really felt what it was like to be a peerless beauty with this beautiful wife, who was capable of eroding the bones and sucking the marrow. Even though he was self-reliant and strong-willed, he could not help but be a little greedy for the warmth and softness.
Considering that once Jia Zhen is deposed, he will inevitably harbor resentment and revenge will become more and more fierce. He himself does not need to worry. Even if Jia Zhen does not come to look for him, he will be victorious and brave to pursue the poor criminals.
But sometimes he was reading and preparing for exams in Wencui Pavilion, and there was always something he couldn't take care of at home, so Qin Keqing had to keep someone by his side.
As for the maids Baozhu and Ruizhu, these two maids were incapable of tying a chicken, and their temperaments... To be honest, he still couldn't trust them.
"Besides, it's not good to have a courtyard with few entrances. People come and go in this courtyard. If you meet a guest, you can't come. It's not appropriate to meet Ke Qing."
For example, in the Jia family, unless there are relatives, it is impossible for the wife to show up. The wife usually receives the other's female relatives in the back house.
Unless you have a good family relationship or are relatives of the same clan, you will be more relaxed about taboos.
"If you want to buy a two-story house with a cross-courtyard in Shenjing, you will need at least one thousand taels of silver. This is a remote location." Jia Heng thought about this, secretly noted the matter, and raised his eyes to look at the maid. Bi'er said with a smile: "From now on, you can practice boxing and kicking with me, and then serve the young mistress."
Hearing this, Bi'er's face was startled, her almond-shaped eyes sparkled, and she said sharply: "Master, what about my sister? My sister can also practice boxing."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Your sister, please come and join us."
She thought to herself, this rude servant girl only bought two, and they were gone in the blink of an eye.
However, the matter of buying a house should indeed be raised on the agenda. It is still the manuscript of "Three Kingdoms". I will quickly write out the next few chapters and hand them over to Hanmo Studio for engraving and printing. Once it sells well, I can take the opportunity to advance some silver and then... Improve the living environment.
By the time I washed my face, it was already midnight. In the side room, Aunt Cai had also prepared meals. In the side room, two maids, Baozhu and Ruizhu, who had not slept well all night, also got up rubbing the dark circles under their eyes.
The two maids looked at each other, and their cheeks turned red. It was quite painful to listen to the movement on the bed through the screen last night.
Jia Heng said: "Grandma, are you up?"
"Grandma is awake." Baozhu said softly.
On the bed in the back room, Qin Keqing was getting dressed, feeling weak all over. She put away the bright red plum blossom handkerchief underneath and put it into the wooden box beside it.
The beauty with disheveled hair and radiant face stood up and hissed slightly, her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her beautiful eyes were filled with a mixture of shame and joy. After all, it was the first time her green melon was broken and she was not good at walking.
After all, the Jia family didn't have a high-ranking minister to serve them, so they didn't have to go to serve tea early in the morning, which saved the bride the suffering.
Qin Keqing was leaning against the head of the bed, the brocade quilt slipped off, her round and smooth shoulders, and she closed her eyes slightly. The tender scenes last night seemed to reappear in her mind. Thinking of some embarrassing scenes, her snowy cheeks became hot again, extending to her earlobes.
"Husband, he...it's true, he actually asked me about the date of Tiangui last night." Qin Keqing felt a little shy when she thought of the whisper in her husband's ear.
But it was last night that Jia Heng came up with a contraceptive method because he couldn't let Qin Keqing get pregnant early when he was no more than 16 or 17 years old.
With Jia Heng's current age of fourteen or fifteen, it would not be a good thing for him or Qin Keqing if he had a child.
After waiting for a while, the two maids Baozhu and Ruizhu had washed up, entered the room, and said with a smile: "My uncle asked grandma to get up for dinner."
With that said, he helped Qin Keqing get up and dress up.
In front of the dressing table, the bronze mirror reflects the golden hairpin and hair on the temples, the beautiful face, the shy joy overflows between the eyebrows, the charming charm of a new woman has begun to appear, Qin Keqing puts on a jade bracelet, and The lotus-rooted arms of Jieshanshuangsaixue are reflected in blue and white, just like the fate of the beautiful woman after she has been rewritten.
Qin Keqing, accompanied by Baozhu and Ruizhu, left the wing, washed up, and then came to the hall. Her eyes, as soft as water, met the young man's eyes as warm as the early winter sun.
"Ke Qing, come and sit here." Jia Heng said with a chuckle.
Qin Keqing came over and sat next to Jia Heng.
"I've really wronged you with a simple meal." Jia Heng handed over a pair of chopsticks and said to Qin Keqing.
Now on the round table, there are four side dishes, together with a soup, rice and eight-treasure porridge.
Qin Keqing's beautiful eyes were as full as water, she stared at Jia Heng and said, "Husband, this is a much richer meal than the Nu family used to have."
Baozhu also smiled and said: "Grandma is not the kind of person who pays attention to luxury and extravagance at home. When she comes here..."
Qin Keqing's beautiful willow eyebrows frowned and interrupted: "Baozhu, what are you at home and over here? This will be my home from now on."
Jia Heng looked at the charming Qin Keqing, his eyes became gentler, and he understood Qin Keqing's "refreshing" temperament better.
He thought to himself that he deserves to be able to play with Sister Feng.
In ancient times, it was like this: blind marriage, dumb marriage, marriage first, love later.
But in the side room where Aunt Cai lived, the maid Yan'er was eating with a bowl. Her bright eyes like black grapes glanced at Qingwen in surprise, holding the bowl with chopsticks and absent-mindedly.
Bi'er picked up a piece of fried golden tofu, stuffed it into her mouth, and winked at her sister, signaling not to touch Qingwen's bad luck.
Noticing the eye contact between the two sisters, Qingwen snorted softly, put her chopsticks on the bowl, turned around and left. She didn't know what to feel in her heart. She just couldn't eat it anyway.
A few days ago, she was eating and sitting with the young master, but these days she was "sent" to the two maids.
It's not that she's jealous, she's not a grandma, but she's always a little frustrated.
Bi'er picked up a piece of chicken, put it in Yan'er's bowl, pursed her lips, and whispered: "Sister, she won't eat, you eat more, you look so thin, the bones on your face are protruding, I I told the young master that I want you to practice boxing too."
Obviously both sisters are a little afraid of Qingwen.
Yan'er nodded, picked up the chicken, and started eating it like a squirrel.
The life she was living now was beyond her wildest dreams. Not only could she have enough to eat, but she didn't have to be beaten or scolded. She really didn't understand why Sister Qingwen was so gloomy.
Jia Heng and Qin Keqing finished their meal and rinsed their mouths. Jia Heng smiled and said, "Ke Qing, you take a walk in the courtyard first to save yourself the trouble of stocking up on food. I'll go to the study."
He planned to take advantage of these few days of free time to hand in the first round of the Three Kingdoms manuscript. As more people came in, he had clearly felt the urgency of improving his living environment.
This matter is especially important in completely nailing Jia Zhen.
Qin Keqing does not admire wealth and honor, and is willing to accompany him to live a hard life, but he cannot take it for granted. Now that we are married, he will naturally fulfill the promise he cherished in his heart, "You are willing to be poor and lowly, and I am willing to be rich and noble together."
Now, the two maids Yan'er, sister Bi'er and Aunt Cai live in the same house, while Baozhu and Ruizhu live in the west wing of the five-room main house.
The wing room he lived in was a study and a bedroom, separated into two rooms by a screen. It was indeed a bit cramped.
