Chapter 402 Help

After Li Baolu finished her morning class, she left the academy and went to the Qin Mansion, just in time for He Zipei to see a guest out.

Qin Xinfang is now a senior member of the cabinet, and is highly valued by the new emperor, so many people come to see her every day.

He Zipei won't meet all of them, but he won't refuse to see them all, some people have to. Because even if Qin Xinfang cultivated to become an immortal, he still needs contacts in the officialdom.

It is impossible to count on Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu who are devoted to education.

Seeing Li Baolu enter the door, He Zipei waved to her and said, "It's just in time, come and meet Mrs. Ouyang."

Mrs. Ouyang looked at Li Baolu with a smile, and said to He Zipei with relief: "Mrs. Qin is very lucky. I have heard that Mr. Li was taught by Mrs. Qin. Now Mr. Li is very prestigious in Qingxi Academy."

"Where, it's just that the child has high ambition and wants to make a career. Whether he succeeds or not depends on the future results."

"Why can't it work? The elderly granddaughter is studying under Mr. Li, and she has made a lot of progress in just two months after entering the school. It can be seen that this girls' school should still be opened." Old Mrs. Ouyang looked at Li Baolu and smiled: "This is also the case. Mr. Li's credit."

Li Baolu saluted with a slight smile: "I've seen Mrs. Ouyang, as long as everyone doesn't think it's Baolu's mischief and knows that it's a good thing that will benefit forever, it's fine. Baolu doesn't dare to say meritorious deeds."

Old Madam Ouyang's smile faltered, and He Zipei smiled and nodded her forehead and said, "You're being naughty again. I only listen to people's praises, but I've never seen myself boasting like this. I made the old lady laugh." He Zipei turned to Ouyang The old lady said with a smile: "Once this child is in front of him, he is easy to be coquettish, and he doesn't grow old or small."

Li Baolu stuck out her tongue, hugged He Zipei's arm coquettishly, and said coquettishly: "Auntie demolished my desk again."

Old Madam Ouyang said with a smile, "That means Mr. Li doesn't treat Mrs. Qin as an outsider."

He Zipei just smiled, slapped Li Baolu's little hand off and said, "Old Madam, let me take you out, don't let this monkey boy waste your time."

Old Madam Ouyang nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards her family's carriage. Li Baolu stood behind with her hands folded respectfully, and followed her off.

Old Madam Ouyang got into the carriage, and the servants of the porter immediately and cleverly removed the newly installed threshold and let the carriage go out.

Old Madam Ouyang was sitting in the carriage, her eldest girl opened the curtain slightly to look out, and saw He Zipei pointed at Li Baolu's forehead with her finger and said angrily, "You!"

The eldest girl put down the curtain, and waited for the carriage to leave the Qin Mansion before whispering: "Madam, it seems that the relationship between the Qin family and the Gu Mansion on Lingsheng Street is really good. Just now, Mr. Li entered the door and the servants did not inform , she drove the carriage directly into the door, treating it like her own home."

Old Madam Ouyang closed her eyes and meditated, and said quietly: "After all, she has raised a child for more than ten years, how could she not be close? What's more, the Qin family only has one daughter, and Gu Jingyun is the only one they have to rely on in the future. But the Li family is better than I imagined. even smaller..."

In the Qin residence, Li Baolu was pulling a blade of grass and beating the flowers and plants on the side of the road, saying: "Since my aunt doesn't like her, why do you need to see her?"

He Zipei laughed, "You already know that I don't like her?"

"Smiles can be deceiving, but energy cannot be deceiving." Li Baolu glanced over and said, "Your smile just now was fake."

"You brat," He Zipei couldn't help but stretch out his hand to beat her up, "Do you know that this is entertainment? You should still be in Qiongzhou, so you can do whatever you want?"

"Aiya," Li Baolu rubbed her head and said, "I didn't say to let her go, I just thought that since you don't like her, why should you see her alone? Find more people and let everyone sit in a lively group. Can you adjust your mood? Your status and seniority are there, is there any old lady in the capital who can climb on top of you?"

He Zipei was amused by her, and after laughing, he said: "Mrs. Ouyang's seniority is really higher than mine. Master Ouyang and your grandfather are of the same family."

He Zipei didn't talk to her more about this issue. She didn't like Mrs. Ouyang's personal feelings, and she didn't want to affect Li Baolu, so she changed the subject and asked with a smile, "It's rare for you to come to see me at this time, what's the matter?" something?"

"Auntie still understands me," Li Baolu hugged her arm and said with a smile, "I have a big request for Auntie."

"You're fine and you can't remember to visit me." He Zipei glared at her and said angrily, "Now that you're all grown up, why do you still remember me?"

"Why don't you remember, brother Jing Yun said last night that he wanted the whole family to come over for dinner, just because you thought it would be troublesome." Li Baolu hugged her arm and said.

He Zipei couldn't help laughing, "You don't need me to cook, what do I despise you for?"

"Where's Niu Niu?" Li Baolu looked around, seeing that Niu Niu hadn't come out after she had been here for so long.

He Zipei couldn't help sighing, "Your master ran out against her early this morning. That child was spoiled by your master. He wanted to run out to play every day. If he didn't like it, he would just sit on the ground and cry. Who learned bad habits. I wanted to educate her, but before I could say anything, a group of people stopped her. Your uncle loves her, your master loves her, and your mother-in-law loves her too. I'm the only villain in the co-author?"

Li Baolu laughed loudly, hugged He Zipei's arm and said with a smile: "Don't worry, auntie, my master is sensible, Niuniu really wants to imitate bad things, my master will do it without you asking, don't worry too much about those harmless little problems, No one is perfect, the most important thing is to make Niuniu safe and happy, isn't it?"

That's right, otherwise she wouldn't just turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye to let it go, but the villain must be done by someone, otherwise the child will definitely have no scruples and lawlessness.

"Okay, let's not talk about that little devil, what do you want me to do?"

Li Baolu told about Zhao Ning, and He Zipei's eyes lit up, and he said enthusiastically: "Marriage is a lifelong event, and it should be taken seriously. Leave this matter to me, and my aunt will definitely handle it for them."

He Zipei was almost bored at home, Qin Xinfang was a pure minister and didn't need to make friends with too many people, but they had been exiled, and they had the deepest experience of human relationships over the years, after all, there were only a handful of people worth dealing with.

What's more, returning to the capital, both Qin Xinfang and He Zipei are very open-minded about this aspect, and they are also very free-wheeling. Except for some people who need them to suppress their emotions to receive them, the rest depends on their mood.

So He Zipei was not busy at all, and he had to worry about Niuniu before, but since Bai Yitang excused Gu's mansion to be repaired, he ran to Qin's mansion openly to pursue Qin Wenyin, and then Niuniu took over.

So He Zipei was more free.

It's not a good feeling to be the only one idle when everyone else is busy.

So when he learned that she was going to be asked to help prepare for Zhao Ning's wedding, He Zipei agreed without even thinking about it.

For Zhao Ning, this disciple, she still likes it very much, and this is a happy event. If the family can hold a happy event, it will be lively, right?

He Zipei asked about the scale Li Baolu wanted and the budget she could give, and after thinking for a moment, said: "It's not difficult, what is difficult is the dowry and dowry, the two children have already had a wedding at home, even if the groom is not at home, the dowry is not difficult." The dowry and the dowry are all in place, so now, do we need a dowry or a dowry? We can’t just carry a sedan chair, it’s too inappropriate.”

Li Baolu thought for a while and waved her hand: "It doesn't matter, we can't afford a generous dowry, but ordinary ones are not difficult."

Li Baolu pointed her fingers and said: "The young couple will live in the capital for at least three years, and there is still a lot of things missing in the yard, so let's buy them all at this opportunity. The pots, pans, and buckets are all new, and the bed also needs new ones. Make a new one, prepare a few more sets of bedding, pile them in the closet when they are always useful, and clothes and jewelry, these are all practical, besides these daily things are other decorations, I also prepare for them Some, so there will be several, and then prepare some other things. "

What Li Baolu struggled with was the route to greet her relatives, "The sedan chair leaves from our house, goes around Lingsheng Street and then returns to our house?"

He Zipei burst out laughing, "How can you marry yourself like this? Let the bride live with me, and get married from the Qin Mansion on the day of marriage. Since you have decided to do it, you must do it perfectly."

Li Baolu originally only wanted to hold a wedding, but He Zipei hired a matchmaker to start with asking for the name and accepting the color, but the time was shortened, and it was completed in just one month.

No way, they chose the nearest auspicious day, October 18th, with only forty days to prepare.

Originally, it took a year to complete a set of procedures, but it was shortened to forty days by He Zipei.

Because Li Baolu had to go to class every day, He Zipei took Yan Yuanniang and Qin Wenyin, who had fewer classes, to the streets to prepare the bride price and dowry, so excited that she even threw her husband and children aside.

Qin Xinfang couldn't take it anymore after sitting alone at the dinner table for the third time, and complained to He Zipei in the middle of the night: "You should also put some energy on me, can't you just think about the children?"

"Do you think we should post posts to our old friends? Baolu said that we don't need to invite too many people, but the bride is married from the Qin family after all. It would be unreasonable if we didn't invite them. Since Zigui has no relatives and no reason, isn't he taking advantage of others for nothing? In the future, Zigui and they will not be able to pay back the gifts."

Qin Xinfang waiting for comfort: ...

He Zipei didn't see her husband answering for a long time, so she couldn't help turning her head and poking his finger, "I'm asking you something."

Qin Xinfang lay on the bed and said: "No need to invite them, they are all married, this is a make-up wedding, it is not considered formal, it is fine for the children to make trouble in private, if we invite people from our side, it will make people feel that the children are Make a big deal out of it."

He Zipei hesitated, and said in a low voice, "But I think Qinghe wants to invite him."

Qin Xinfang frowned, "Qinghe even takes care of such things? Isn't he the most troublesome?"

He Zipei pointedly said: "He is much more concerned about this matter than Chunxi. He has been helping me by my side for the past few days and is very interested in the wedding regulations. Don't forget, back then Qinghe and Chunxi Chunxi's wedding was also very simple, because they were young and their conditions were limited, we didn't even prepare wedding dresses for Chunxi."

Qin Xinfang: "...So that kid also wants to hold the wedding again?"

He Zipei looked at him meaningfully.

Qin Xinfang couldn't help but have a headache.
