Anhui Nuan still feels guilty to this day. The only thing he is thankful for is that Qiao Jianghong survived and An Qi'en did not become a widow.
But their relationship is in name only, just like living widows.
An Qien shook her head seriously, "No, none of the concubines in Beijing married as well as me. How could I complain? This is a marriage granted by His Majesty. My mother has treated me well since I was a child. This marriage is from the Marquis Mansion. Sister , I really have no complaints in my heart.”
Anhui Nuan was still worried, but Qiao Jianghong was recovering well and would make great achievements in his career in the future, which gave her some comfort.
But thinking of the woman from the countryside, Anhui Nuan gave her some advice, "If she is obedient, just let her go. If she is disobedient and will stumbling upon you, just act like the mistress of the house." Suppress her."
"After all, she has to make a living under your hands. You just have to calm down. Children should be born as they should be. Raising your own children is what you rely on for the future."
An Qi'en smiled lightly, she would never have a child of her own in this life.
She didn't tell An Weinuan about this, eldest sister, her husband's family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, there are so many concubines, and her brother-in-law is not considerate.
So she didn't want her eldest sister to worry in vain.
After chatting for a while, An Qi'en thought that maybe he hadn't seen his big brother for a long time since he came.
"Sister, let's go see brother Shi An."
Anhui Nuan was also confused, "My brother usually waits at the door when he knows I'm coming back. Why didn't he come to see you when you came back today?"
"Come on, let's go take a look in his yard."
After saying that, Anhui Nuan took An Qien and headed to An Shian's yard.
The two sisters were holding hands as before leaving the palace, followed by two maids, chatting as they walked.
"I heard from my mother that brother Shi An has been slacking off in his studies in recent days. He likes to wield swords and guns. It has been almost two years since the last imperial examination. Now that the imperial examination is coming soon, this eldest brother is not at all. in a hurry."
When An Hui Nuan said this, he silently wiped away the cold sweat for An Shi'an.
An Qi'en said, "I think it was because my brother was sure that he let go..."
Suddenly, a loquat flew from the sky and hit An Qien's face quickly, "Hiss..."
With a bang, a medium-sized loquat fell to the ground, and then rolled to the side.
An Qi'en's face was hit with a bright red mark, which hurt just looking at it.
Anhui Nuan hurriedly checked her injury, his eyes were very concerned, and he cursed in the yard: "What servant with no eyesight is doing in the yard!"
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps approaching from far away was heard, and then a man with a dignified appearance and heroic appearance was seen.
The man wore a gorgeous silk robe with intricately embroidered designs.
There is a dark red gold embroidered belt tied around the waist, paired with a jade pendant that is full of color and looks very precious.
This man has a handsome appearance, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He is a very masculine handsome man.
The man bowed politely and said, "I'm really sorry for hurting my wife."
"Seventeenth Prince." An Weinuan was startled and immediately saluted respectfully.
"I don't know, Seventeenth Prince. I'm in the An Mansion today. Please forgive me for making an unintentional comment just now." At this time, An Shi'an chased him out of the yard and said happily, "Sister."
He called two people "sister". When he saw An Qi'en, whom he hadn't seen for three years, An Shi'an was so excited that he couldn't express his emotions.
"Little girl, I've lost weight. Why doesn't the Hou Mansion have delicious food?"
An Qien was so generous and generous, ignoring the pain on his face, and politely greeted the seventeenth prince first.
"Hail the Seventeenth Prince."
Although there were a hundred questions in her mind, she looked dignified on the surface and showed no signs of surprise.
"It was unintentional to hurt Madam. Please don't take offense, Madam."
"It's okay, Prince Seventeen, don't worry about it."
An Shi'an then introduced, "Bo Chu, this is what I told you, the little sister who is good at slingshot, married into the Marquis's house, Qi En."
Lu Bochu saw that she was soft and frail, with creamy skin, bright eyes and white teeth, and a small and delicate face. She was a real beauty.
"I've heard Madam's name for a long time. I'm glad to meet you."
An Qi'en saw that the prince was very friendly to the people, and his brother actually called him by his name. The relationship between the two must be unusual.
"Just scratching the surface. The Seventeenth Prince has given me a lot of praise. My brother loves me very much. Whatever I do, he thinks it's great."
Lu Bochu smiled freely and said, "Shi An and I are good friends. Don't call me prince outside. Just call me Bochu like Shi An."
this....
Hiding your identity can indeed avoid a lot of trouble.
An Weinuan smiled and said, "Yes, brother Bochu."
Last time, Lu Bochu told An Weinuan that if he met him outside, just call him brother Bochu.
She had unintentionally insulted the wrong person just now, so she respectfully called out, Seventeenth Prince.
An Qi'en had no choice but to shout, "Brother Bochu."
Her voice still has the crispness of a girl. She was only 16 years old when she married into the Hou family, and she is only 19 years old now.
The tenderness and aura on his face have not diminished at all.
Lu Bochu couldn't stay here for long. If the girl came back, he, an outsider, might be blamed if he didn't have the eyesight to see her.
He told An Shi'an, "Shi'an, let's make an appointment another day. I have some personal matters today so I'll leave first."
"Okay, I'll see you off, Bochu."
An Shi'an made a gesture to send Lu Bochu off.
An Wei Nuan, an Qi En, a blessed body and luggage.
An Shian sent Lu Bochu away.
The two sisters entered An Shian's yard and were surprised to see that in the yard, loquats were neatly arranged into a rectangle several meters long.
The rectangle is very standard, and each angle can be said to be a standard ninety degrees.
An Qien raised his eyes and saw that the loquat tree was bare, with not a single fruit left.
An Weinuan looked over.
The servant replied respectfully, "The eldest young master made a bet with Young Master Lu. He could use martial arts to pick all the loquats within half a stick of incense. Young Master Lu, half of the stick of incense was burned and the loquats were made like this. That's why he accidentally missed it." One of them flew and hit my sister-in-law in the face."
So that’s what happened.
An Weinuan didn't ask any more questions and went to the house with An Qien.
An Qi'en asked curiously, "Sister, how did Brother Shi An meet the Seventeenth Prince? It seems that the two have a close relationship."
The maid made tea for the two aunts.
An Weinuan said with a gentle smile, "Not long after you married into the Hou Mansion, your brother went hunting in the woods and met the Seventeenth Prince who was attacked and seriously injured by a wild wolf. Since then, the relationship between the two has been very good. The seventh prince often secretly went out of the palace to play with his brother, and the two had similar interests and became very good friends."
At this time, An Shi'an came back, his steps steady and quick, "Qi'en, did that spineless guy from the Hou Mansion bully you?"
He was talking in a teahouse outside before and heard some rumors that as soon as the prince of the Hou family got out of bed, his concubine and his wife would have to take good care of him.
Sooner or later, people will know these things, so An Qi'en told the whole story.
An Shi'an has always been steady and elegant. When he heard this exact answer, he slammed the table and stood up angrily, "Does he think that my father, An, is no one? A child cannot be taught!"
