It’s already very hot around the Dragon Boat Festival, but you can still feel the coolness when you get up early.
A beautiful day started in the morning. Lian Suisui sat up from the bed, stretched out his arms, and Xiao Tao rubbed her neck.
"Miss, why did I fall asleep in your room?"
The sewing basket rolled on the ground. She picked up the needles and threads scattered on the ground and said strangely, "It's strange. I seem to have slept very deeply in the past two nights. Miss, do you know what is going on?"
Lian Suisui said with a guilty conscience, "How would I know? I slept very deeply too. Maybe I was too tired during the day."
This is true.
Xiao Tao didn't think much about it. In the past, she only had to take care of her young lady, but now she has to help her young lady with the medicinal materials. Maybe the smell of Chinese medicine helped her sleep better at night.
"Xiao Taozi, go and tell the grandma guarding the door that I know I was wrong. I want to see my mother and admit my mistake to her."
Taking the initiative to rest at home without going out is completely different from passive rest.
Xiaotao also felt depressed being locked up in the yard.
"Slave, go now!"
After explaining the intention to the mother-in-law, the mother-in-law went back to report to the Qin family. After getting permission, she came back and took Lian Suisui to the main courtyard.
"Mommy, how have you been doing these past two days?"
She tried to understand her mother's mood from her mother's daily life.
The mother-in-law saw that she had not had any trouble in the past two days, and after she lost weight, her whole person's energy and spirit were completely different, which made people feel good.
"Miss, Madam is not really angry with you. Madam is worried about you. What if you, a girl, run outside and are in danger? You can tell Madam carefully later..."
Even the servants spoke for her mother, which showed that her mother was really a good mistress.
"Don't worry, Nanny, I know."
In the past, even Suisui didn't hate Mrs. Qin, but compared to Lian Fangyu, she preferred her father who only spoke well and was obedient. Their relationship with Mrs. Qin was a bit cold.
This is how family education is. Children tend to like the parent who will indulge you the most, and resent the mother who always does not allow this or that... But in fact, most fathers are irresponsible, and most mothers are really good for you.
We can’t generalize, it’s like this for the Lian family anyway.
When she arrived at the main courtyard, she didn't meet any other concubines or her concubine brothers and sisters who came to pay their respects. Aunt Fang reminded her quietly: "The young lady is coming over, and the madam has specially sent others away..."
Lian Suisui felt warm in his heart. He opened the curtain and called her mother sweetly.
Mrs. Qin deliberately turned aside with a straight face.
"Oh mother, don't be angry!" Lian Suisui picked up the tea on the table and handed it to her hand, "Mother, drink tea!"
Mrs. Qin picked up the tea bowl and brought it to her mouth.
"Mom, after drinking tea, don't be angry with me anymore. I really know I was wrong! I will never do it again!"
"Mom, please have some snacks!"
There were several plates of exquisite snacks on the table. Lian Suisui borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha, and Mrs. Qin pointed her finger on her head.
"Don't be ashamed, take my things and apologize to me!"
Lian Suisui put his arms around hers and said, "Mom, just don't be angry! I'm full of pills. You are healthy and don't need those things!"
How could Mrs. Qin be so angry with her like this!
"I'm angry why you hid it from me! There are so many wild beasts on the mountain, and even the hunters don't dare to go up the mountain alone. It would be better for you to run away by yourself..."
Mrs. Qin still wanted to scold you, "Do you really not know how much you weigh?"
Being willing to scold her shows that the relationship between mother and daughter is being repaired.
"Even if you don't encounter wild animals, what if you encounter robbers?"
Bandits most like to hide in the mountains, and Mrs. Qin is about to explode.
Lian Suisui said with a guilty conscience: "Mom, aren't I doing a good job..."
Song Jingwei just sent someone back that day and didn't say much. Based on the clues provided by Xiao Tao, Qin only thought that she went out to collect medicine and Song Jingwei happened to bump into her.
She had no idea that she had discovered the den of thieves.
I didn’t even dare to mention it until Sui Sui.
"If you hadn't met your Song cousin, you wouldn't have known for sure!"
Mrs. Qin, who had always been gentle, spoke a little louder. Even Suisui didn't dare to refute, and just listened honestly. When her mother had vented enough, the matter was over.
"Madam, the eldest son of the Song family has handed over a greeting card and wants to see you and the third lady."
Lian Suisui's heart skipped a beat. She had finally managed to coax the beauty, so don't come and cause trouble for her!
Song Jingwei was the most outstanding young man in the family. Mrs. Qin glared at Lian Suisui.
"Follow me to meet your Song cousin."
Song Jing was wearing regular clothes today, but he preferred darker colors. If his face hadn't looked younger, his age would have been pushed back ten years.
He is twenty-four this year, and I heard he has not married yet. It is a bit strange that he has not yet started a family at his age in ancient times when early marriage was common.
"I've met my aunt, my third sister."
His voice was very nice, and Lian Suisui stood beside Qin in a polite manner behind him.
"Li Xing is not busy with official duties today. A few days ago, I told Youshan that she might not have seen you for a long time. If she is not busy, she can come to the house to sit more often."
"Li Xing" is the character of Song Jingwei. However, his demeanor is simple and strong, he is disciplined and determined in his actions. He is smart enough to become a scholar and sincere enough to change his world.
Song Jing nodded and said: "I have a rest today and came here to visit my aunt. By the way..."
He glanced at Lian Suisui, who was making an expression at him, and changed his words, "I stopped by to see sister Suisui. I was busy with business that day and I couldn't get away, so I had to ask my servants to send my sister back. My sister has not been wronged, right?"
The muscles on Lian Suisui's face were almost stiff. Qin looked up suspiciously, and Lian Suisui immediately returned to his normal expression.
"Thank you cousin, I'm fine."
Mrs. Qin greeted Shouchang Hou and his wife, and talked to Song Jingwei for a while on some interesting topics. He answered them one by one, with a calm and unhurried attitude, as if he really just came to greet her today.
He held an important position and was very busy all day long. He didn't go to the Three Treasures Hall today because he had nothing to do. Maybe it was inconvenient to tell her.
Qin made an excuse.
"Look at me, I'm just talking to myself. It's rare for Li Xing to come to visit. It's the Dragon Boat Festival. I've prepared gifts for Mr. Marquis and his wife. I'll go back and get them. Li Xing will help bring them back."
"Sui Sui, please help me entertain your cousin, don't neglect the guests!"
Lian Suisui hurriedly responded.
After she left, Lian Suisui pouted and said: "Don't mind, cousin. I just went out to collect medicine and my mother locked me up for two days. If she knew that I was in danger, she would not let me leave the house for the rest of my life." ."
Song Jingwei chuckled. Her cousin's personality was really different. She was frank and cute, and she looked carefree on the surface, but in fact she was very thoughtful.
"Cousin, what do you want to ask?"
She made it clear about the situation that day as soon as they met. Song Jing took out the valley she said to lead people to find it. The people inside had long been deserted, but he left in a hurry and left many traces. He led people in After two days of investigation there, I just returned to Beijing today.
"I came today to express my gratitude and to seek my cousin's opinion."
