Chapter 526 Gossip Is Good for Health [Thank You! Goodbye! 44K More to Gossip]

In the blink of an eye,

It will be the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

On this day,

The bright sunshine in the morning spread gently into the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

The backyard of the Hou Mansion,

Because the earth dragon burning was not strong, Xu Zaijing's study was a little cold.

Qingcao and the other three female envoys, who had been chirping since morning, finally calmed down a bit.

Xu Zaijing, who had been sitting behind the table and meditating on ink for a long time, was finally ready to do the homework left by Zhuang Xuexuan.

As a result, I just wrote a few words,

"Son~"

Yun Xiang's voice, speaking with a raised voice, came from outside the door.

Xu Zaijing sighed softly and said, "If you have something to say, speak louder!"

The study door was opened,

Three maids who had taken great pains to dress up came in from the door wearing cloaks.

"Sir, we're going out right now!"

Qingcao said with a smile.

Xu Zaijing raised his head and looked at it, and said, "Why does the cloak you are wearing look familiar?"

"hey-hey."

The three female envoys looked at each other with a smile and then showed a line of words embroidered on their cloaks.

Looking at the poems above, Xu Zaijing understood.

It was Qingcao and the other three who embroidered the poems themselves before. When Yun Xiang and the sisters put them on, they almost made other ladies think they were the legitimate daughters of some family.

Then, Xu Zaijing nodded and said, "This outfit looks good, let's go!"

Qingcao said: "Yes, Master! Remember to add charcoal to the charcoal stove next to you!"

"Also, Caizhu's mother came over just now and said that my sister from the madam's yard will come to help wait for her later."

Xu Zaijing continued to write with his head down and said, "Yes, I understand."

The study door is closed,

soon,

The room fell into silence,

Even the sound of the goldfish turning over in the water in the large tank was much clearer.

After adding more charcoal to the charcoal stove, Xu Zaijing began to concentrate on his work.

About half an hour later,

"Ta-ta."

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Enter."

Xu Zaijing said without raising his head.

"Master!"

Hearing this, Xu Zaijing raised his head and saw the young female envoy standing at the door, holding a tray and with a somewhat familiar face.

Xu Zaijing smiled slightly: "Yo! It's you, girl."

The little girl at the door greeted her with a blessing, then walked in with a tray and said: "Sir, these are the pastries that Madam ordered me to bring to you."

Xu Zaijing smiled and nodded: "Just put it on the coffee table."

Afterwards, Xu Zaijing lowered his head and read his article and said, "When did you come to the Hou Mansion? Is your name still Tan Yun?"

The little girl put the cakes away, lowered her head and said: "Back to the young master, it has been four months since I entered the Marquis's residence! My name was changed before, but now my name is Yunjin."

"Yunjin?" Xu Zaijing nodded slightly as he read the article: "Well, this is a good name. It sounds rich and happy."

"Thank you for the compliment, Master!"

The little girl said with another blessing.

"Yes. It's a little cold in the study. You can go wait outside."

After Xu Zaijing finished speaking, he continued to do his homework.

"Yes, sir!"

The little girl responded, walked to the door of the study, and closed the door softly.

While doing schoolwork,

Xu Zaijing raised his head and looked at the study door.

With his outstanding ear,

Xu Zaijing knew that the little girl was standing at the door waiting obediently, making little moves.

"Yunjin."

As soon as Xu Zaijing finished speaking, the study door was pushed open and the little girl stepped in.

"Go to the side room to find Mother Xia and bring her a basin of silver bone charcoal."

"Yes, sir!"

Afterwards, the young girl fed the fish in the study, changed the water for the pen wash on Xu Zaijing's desk, and finally helped Xu Zaijing eliminate the two cakes on the table.

The east wall of the outer city,

There is a city gate called Xinsong Gate.

Many people entering Bianjing from the east take this gate.

Enter Xinsong Gate and walk straight west to reach the south corner gate of the inner city.

There is a large three-story restaurant outside the south corner gate. There is a plaque with the four characters "Huixian Restaurant" hanging on the door of the restaurant.

Next to the railing facing the street on the second floor,

After disguising himself, Zhaotaifeng looked like a wealthy man from Bianjing, standing there, followed by Gao Yunqing, who knew Bianjing well.

Looking at the carriage coming downstairs, Gao Yunqing said, "It's the Xu family's carriage."

After Zhaotaifeng hummed, he looked at the four people who got off the carriage and asked, "Who are these four women?"

"Master, the tall woman is Madam Hua of the Qingyun family, and the other three are Brother Jing's personal maids."

Zhaotaifeng nodded gently as if he knew it for the first time.

At this time,

There were voices downstairs.

"Qingyun? Why are you here?"

On the street not far away, there were two young men riding horses, dressed very brightly, who were slightly older than Xu Zaijing.

Qingyun beside the carriage looked back and saw the two young men who made the noise. A smile appeared on his face and he cupped his hands and said, "I have seen these two young men."

The two brothers from the Li family, Taotie and Xiaomei, got off their horses with a smile and walked towards Qingyun.

Hua Qing took Qingcao and the others and bowed to the Li brothers.

The Li brothers, who were extremely skillful, bowed their hands to Hua Qing and Qing Cao in return, then smiled and said to Qing Yun, "But Wu Lang is here too."

As they spoke, the two of them looked towards the restaurant with great interest.

This action made Zhao Taifeng retreat slightly in the restaurant, avoiding the sight of the two brothers.

After Qingyun downstairs explained, the Li brothers let out a few disappointed expressions.

These two brothers, who were born in the Bai Gao clan, are now Viscounts of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the house they were given is located in the south corner gate, very close to here.

Moreover, the Anguo Palace is nearby their house, and beyond the Tan family's house is the courtyard of the Huyan family where Anmei lives.

"You two gentlemen, are you going today?"

Hearing Qingyun's question, the two Li brothers felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Huh?" Qingyun looked at the two of them doubtfully.

Before the Li brothers could speak,

Alan, Chu Zhan, who were riding behind and bought a lot of sugar cane, candied haws and other snacks, also came over.

After another conversation, Qingyun finally knew that today the two of them had accepted Madam Wu's invitation to go to a noble house not far away to meet the 'girl's parents'.

Qingyun and Alan waited for a while to ask, and then they found out which house it was.

Qingcao and the others standing aside also chimed in a few words from time to time.

After all, they have been in Beijing for many years and have participated in countless polo, gatherings, and flower viewing parties. They always know how the girls of a certain family are doing through the conversations between the maids and servants.

"Brother Li, if you buy expensive materials, that girl may not care, but buying a few rare incense-making items will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Hearing this, the Li brothers looked at each other and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to Sister Qingcao and go buy a few pieces."

Qingcao smiled and nodded.

After saying a few more words, the Li brothers mounted their horses and left as they did not want to be delayed any longer.

Huaqing and Qingcao have already gone upstairs,

Qingyun looked at Chu Zhan, who was still looking at the backs of the Li brothers, and said, "What's wrong with you kid?"

Chu Zhan turned his head and looked at Qingyun without saying anything.

Qingyun smiled: "When we return home, we will drop by the Li family to have a look and bring some delicious food to the Li family's younger brothers and sisters!"

"Hehe!" Chu Zhan laughed.

"Okay, let's go up."

"No, I'm waiting here with Brother Qingyun."

Qingyun smiled, looked at Chu Zhan, who was wrinkling his nose and sniffing, and said, "Okay, wait until your nose stops running, and it won't be too late to stand still!"

The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

Chu Zhan turned around and walked towards the door glumly, and then was blocked by Alan and Xun Shu on his shoulders as he entered the restaurant.

After waiting for a while,

Buwei and Zhique rode horses and accompanied a carriage with a wooden sign bearing the word "Gu" to the front of Huixian Restaurant.

The driver of the car was from the Xu family who came with Pingmei when she got married. He smiled and said hello when he saw Qingyun at the door.

When Qingyun was talking to Buwei and Zhique,

Someone came out of the Gu family's carriage,

She is Qiuniang, Gu Tingye's personal servant.

Just when Qingyun thought there was no one around and wanted to ask the driver to move forward, another girl came out.

Seeing this girl, Qingyun was stunned, then a smile appeared on his face and said: "Qingzhi, why are you here?"

Qing Zhi, Ping Mei's personal maid who got off the carriage, smiled and saluted Qing Yun and said: "Brother Qing Yun! It's the eldest lady who heard from the second young master that you are gathering for a banquet today! The eldest lady knew that Qing Cao was coming, so she asked me to do the same. Came here."

Qingyun nodded with a smile, turned his head and glanced at Weiwei, who had an unnatural expression, and said: "Then this girl Qingcao will definitely be extremely happy today!"

Hearing this, Qing Zhi also laughed.

"Okay, you go up first!"

Qingyun waved his hand and said.

After Qiuniang and Qing Zhifu bowed and walked upstairs, Qingyun grabbed Buwei who wanted to follow and said, "Buwei, wait with me for the younger sisters from the Sheng family."

"oh!"

Buwei said with a smile.

"I can't see that you have good taste."

"Ah? Brother Qingyun, what are you talking about?"

"Tsk! That girl Qiuniang has already seen the clues. Are you still pretending to be like me?"

Buwei's expression was a little awkward for a moment, so he changed the subject and said, "Brother Qingyun, the princess knew I was coming, and asked me to bring a jar of good wine."

Qingyun smiled and nodded: "Your Majesty is indeed generous to others."

After saying that, Qingyun looked indifferent and continued:

"Qingzhi and my sister Qingcao are from the same hometown and village, and we have never had any relatives or influence in Bianjing! You are a close follower of my young master. You will have a bright future in the future. You need to think clearly about some things before doing it."

Buwei raised his eyes and looked at Qingyun, nodded and said: "Brother Qingyun, I saved it."

Qingyun smiled and patted Buwei's shoulder.

soon,

Three carriages came,

Buwei was beside Qingyun and said, "Why are so many carriages coming to the Sheng family today?"

Qingyun looked at the carriage drive: "There are probably two personal maids around the brothers and sisters of the Sheng family. Maybe they are all here."

really,

As the carriage came to a stop, there were four personal servants from Weixuan Changbai and Rulan, the same number from Linqige, Shou'antang plus Jin'anzhai, and one Xiaotao came.

Moreover, the carriage that Xiao Tao was riding in was not the Sheng family's carriage, but the carriage of Minglan's aunt Wei Yueyi Wei who was following behind.

On the second floor,

Gao Yunqing said: "Master, the person who came out is the servant girl of the Sheng family."

Zhaotaifeng nodded and looked at Xiaotao who was following Aunt Wei, with a rare gentle look in his eyes.

Especially when he saw the rabbit skin scarf around Xiao Tao's neck, although the style was similar to that of other female servants in the Sheng family, he recognized it at a glance as the one he had given her.

A slight smile appeared on Zhaotaifeng's lips.

downstairs,

Wei Yuyi, dressed respectably, nodded to the few people, and after giving them a few instructions, he let Xiaotao go to the restaurant with Xi Que, Rulan's personal maid.

After watching Xiaotao enter the restaurant,

Wei Yuyi smiled at Qingyun and said, "To be able to eat at Huixian Restaurant, the lady of this duke's mansion is really kind and kind-hearted!"

"That's right, madam!"

"Okay, you go to Gaole, I have something else to do." Wei Yuyi waved his handkerchief and said with a smile.

Watching Wei Yuyi walking towards the carriage, Qingyun and Buwei bowed together: "Madam, take care."

On the second floor of the restaurant,

two banquet tables were set up in a large private room,

a row of partitions stood between the two banquet tables,

the maids sat inside the partitions,

and Qingyun, Zhique and other personal servants sat outside the partitions.

Everyone present was a close friend of their respective young masters and young ladies. They received a monthly allowance, and their food and lodging were all in the master's house. Their income was quite considerable.

There was no one to serve, so everyone sat and drank and talked, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and warm.

But because everyone was not very old, they mostly studied with the young masters and young ladies in the academy every day,

so when it came to gossip in Bianjing, it was mainly Hua Qing in the Xu family shop and Qing Zhi who often followed Ping Mei to attend the Xiangyi Yaji.

Qiu Niang, Gu Tingye's personal maid, asked with a gossipy face while eating the melon seeds in her hand:

"Sister Qing Zhi, I heard from Madam Chang that the second son of the second room of the Marquis of Zhennan has been married for two years, but the eldest lady is still not pregnant, right?"

The maids of the Sheng family at the table pricked up their ears and looked at Qing Zhi.

Xiao Tao stared with a stunned look of surprise.

Hua Qing, who was sitting next to Qing Zhi, touched the mark on her face and sighed slightly.

Qing Zhi nodded and said, "Yes!"

Chang Feng's beloved Ke'er said softly, "Sister, the lady hasn't been pregnant for two years, so why didn't she think of giving the Han family boy a concubine or a maid?"

Qing Zhi shook her head.

"Ah? So jealous?" Ke'er said this.

Chang Bai's maid Yang Hao curled her lips and looked at Ru Lan's maid Xi Que, then rolled her eyes.

Qing Zhi shook her head and said, "It's not that the lady is jealous, it's that the Han family boy doesn't want it!"

"Ah? If he doesn't want it, then doesn't he want a descendant?" Ke'er continued.

No one responded for a while.

Qiu Niang said, "But, why did I hear that it was the Han family brother of the Zhennan Marquis family? He can't do it himself?"

"Hua?"

The maids at the table looked at each other with wonderful expressions, with disbelief on their faces.

Qingcao asked in confusion, "But, I remember that the Han family brother of the Zhennan Marquis family fought against the Jin warriors on the polo field with the young master and others before."

"I think he is also a martial artist, how can there be such a rumor?"

Hua Qing pursed her lips and said, "There is such a rumor. I heard that it came from the servants of the Hanguo Mansion!"

"The Hanguo Duke and the Zhennan Marquis use the same genealogy, how can such a family scandal be spread?" Yang Hao asked with a frown.

"Yes! Is there any hatred?"

Xi Que said with a turn of his eyes.

When Qing Zhi heard this, she looked at Xi Que with appreciation and said, "I heard that it was the eldest lady of the eldest house of Duke Han who wanted to introduce her niece to the Marquis of Zhennan Mansion, but it didn't work out!"

"Ah? How dare they spread such news about the Han family son of the Marquis of Zhennan?" Yun Xiang said with a smack of her lips.

"The eldest lady has never been pregnant, which will confirm such rumors! Besides, there were people talking about it in the palace before, let alone a son of the Marquis' Mansion?"

Another maid whispered, "But before, wasn't it said among the servants and maids of the civil servants that Wu Lang of Duke Han was not good enough? How come it has become the Han family son of the Marquis of Zhennan Mansion now?"

Afterwards, there was another round of discussion in the private room.
