Chapter 176
"Master, come two."

Qiu Jin tactfully took out the silver from his cuff and handed it to the uncle.

The fragrant biscuits were handed to Yu Qingqing in an instant, and she opened her mouth to take a bite.

It turns out that the Great Flame and Prosperity is such a prosperous and brocade, she has come to the capital many times, but she has never stopped to look at it seriously.

Must have fun tonight.

"Miss Qingqing, where shall we go to play next?" Qiu Jin was very happy today, and it was rare to be so relaxed.

Yu Qingqing looked around for a while, fixed her eyes not far away, and said, "Why is it so lively over there? Let's go and see Qiu Jin?"

While speaking, people had already shuttled into the crowd, and Qiu Jin quickly followed.

Shouted loudly, "Girl Qingqing, slow down."

……

There is a sitting temple in front.

On the high platform in front of the temple gate, gongs and drums blared, playing and singing until five o'clock.

In the front, such as Hengjie Pavilion and Xiqiao in Kuaiji County, neighbors meet each other, so the lantern market is particularly prosperous. There are jugglers performing lion dance and transformation activities there, there are advocacy, playing and singing performances, and fireworks are released, crowding together.

Whenever there is space in the small streets and alleys, the big head monk dance will be performed. The sound of gongs and drums is interlaced, and people are watching in groups everywhere.

Most of the women in the street walked together and went to the most lively places to watch the lanterns. Otherwise, it was the men and women who sat in front of their own doors, ate melon seeds and jelly beans, and came to watch the lanterns.

Many couples go to the city during the day, and after dressing up, they run around, which is called "Drilling Lighting Shed", also known as "Walking Bridge".

Yu Qingqing laughed from ear to ear, and said happily, "Qiu Jin, it's so late, why is the street still so lively?"

Qiu Jin looked around, thought for a while and said, "Girl, tomorrow is the Qiqiao Festival."

"Every Qiqiao Festival, people will hold various temple fairs, lantern festivals, and various acrobatics, which is quite lively."

Qiqiao Festival, isn't that the Qixi Festival.

There were so many things going on during this time, she almost forgot what festival it was?
Qixi Festival, Valentine's Day.

Yu Qingqing curled her lips into a smile, as if she was plotting something in her mind?
The temple fair was brightly lit, and colorful lights sprinkled on her face, making her delicate face more three-dimensional.

Suddenly Qiu Jin took her arm and shouted excitedly, "Look, girl, there are sugar figures over there."

The sugar man, Yu Qingqing's eyes were shining, the two hurried over, Yu Qingqing looked at the boss at the sugar man stall.

He is not very old, he looks like a man in his 40s, with a simple and honest appearance.

But his eyes were empty, he looked at the two beautiful girls in front of him, and said in a low voice, "You two girls, do you want to blow a sugar figure?"

Yu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, her big eyes flickered and she said, "Boss, help me boast about the zodiac sheep."

"okay."

"How about you, Qiujin?"

"Girl, I want a sugar figurine." Qiu Jin said with a smile on her face.

……

The two went crazy all night, until it was almost dawn, they slipped into the Yifeng courtyard through the back door.

Tired, he fell directly on the bed and fell asleep until the sun was high.

The sky outside the window turned from overcast to sunny, and the sky became overcast with dark clouds. Instantly, bean-sized raindrops fell on the red bricks and green tiles, crackling.

Yu Qingqing turned over, opened her eyes and looked out the window, a gust of cool wind picked up her hair.

She retracted into the quilt again, and at this moment closed her eyes again.

The outside of the courtyard was sparse, and after an unknown amount of time, Qiu Jin came to wake her up with an invitation card in her hand.

"Girl, Sun Manyue, head of the Shangshu Mansion tomorrow, specially sent an invitation card."

"Master Hou is not in the mansion, and the servants did not let the people in Bilanyuan know, so they brought it here for the girl." Qiu Jin said with her pink lips opening and closing. In her heart, Yu Qingqing has long been the mistress of the Hou mansion. .

Yu Qingqing sat up from the bed, and brushed aside the invitation in Qiu Jin's hand, she didn't like to go to that kind of flattering place.

He said casually, "Send the invitation to Bilanyuan, I don't want to go to Shangshufu."

Not because she was afraid that others would laugh at her birth as a peasant girl, but because she was afraid that those obscene words would dirty her ears.

Qiu Jin hesitated for a moment, thinking: Isn't the girl's favorite lively place?

What's the matter today?Could it be that you were too tired from playing last night?

At this time, Lu Luo walked in, looked at the invitation card in Qiu Jin's hand, glared at her and said, "I heard that the Shangshu Mansion sent the invitation card, the old lady searched everywhere, and it turned out that you stole it."

"Steal? Can you speak? What is stealing? I'll take it openly." Qiu Jin got angry, and immediately slapped the invitation on the table, glaring at Luluo.

Seeing that she is usually soft and weak, she is also so vicious when she speaks.

Ever since Lu Yin collapsed from exhaustion, Lu Luo seemed to have changed into a different person.

She snatched the invitation, glanced at Yu Qingqing, and said with a bit of sarcasm, "Miss Qingqing, the old lady told you to pack up and go to Shangshu Mansion with her tomorrow."

Yu Qingqing glanced at her, and asked coldly, "Aren't you my maid now?"

Luluo pursed her lips, she knew what Qingqing meant.

But she is a member of the old lady, she will keep this in mind.

He gave her a salute hypocritically, and said affectionately, "Of course the servant knows, but the slave must listen to the old lady's work."

"Girl, don't you think so?"

Zhu Bajie really lost the battle and beat him up.

She also followed her master, and she was scheming everywhere.

Yu Qingqing stood up, and said angrily, "That's good. If you step into my Yifengyuan again in the future, I will break your leg."

He stared at her coldly, as if he wanted to swallow her up.

Luluo trembled in fright, picked up the invitation and left the Yifeng Courtyard, crying again when she went back.

After she left, the rain outside also stopped, and the sunshine after the rain was particularly dazzling.

Seeing her gloomy face, Qiu Jin must have been confused by anger. Ever since the old lady returned home, the girl was either angry or on the way to anger.

If it wasn't for Lord Hou's face, the girl probably wouldn't want to stay in Hou's mansion.

She asked cautiously, "Girl, Tomorrow Shangshufu..."

Yu Qingqing had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly smiled evilly and said, "Get ready to dress, and go to the Shangshu Mansion to attend the Full Moon Bar of his eldest grandson tomorrow."

"That's right... wear plain clothes."

"what?"

"Miss Qingqing, Master Shangshu is a high-ranking official. If you wear plain clothes to attend, I'm afraid it will lose the dignity of the Marquis Mansion. Besides..."

Qiu Jin's staring boss, she will never be able to keep up with Qing Qing's brain circuit...

Yu Qingqing took a sip of tea casually, raised her eyes and replied, "I'm not from the Hou's House yet, so I can't represent the Hou's House."

"Only represents a small peasant girl in Shangyu Village, understand?"

She snapped her fingers at Qiujin again, and Qiujin came back to her senses, frowned and replied, "Girl, even though that's the case, I'm going with the old lady tomorrow, according to the servant's order, she will never allow you Wear plain clothes."

Yu Qingqing hooked her fingers towards her and said, "Put your ears close."

……

"Girl Qingqing, isn't this bad?" After listening to Yu Qingqing's work, Qiu Jin turned pale with shock.

I couldn't help admiring her for being so bold that even the old lady dared to fool her.

Yu Qingqing smiled unsatisfactorily, and pinched Qiu Jin's little cheek, "There's nothing wrong, hurry up and get ready."

"Oh."

……

That night Wei Yu stayed in the palace again, and when he heard that Sun Manyue, the chief minister of Shangshufu, was hosting a banquet, he also ordered Tianyi to accompany Qingqing to go.

He knew that the little girl had a way to communicate with her grandmother.

When Tian Yi rushed back to the mansion, she learned that the old lady went with Miss Qingqing, and brought Zhixue with her.

He suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he went back and told Lord Hou.

Hou Ye said, just let him follow, with an unusually calm appearance.

Tian Yi is also very upset, what should I do?Only resignation.

The courtyard is quiet, and you can hear how the night falls from the eaves and moon, and falls on the lotus leaves like streamers.

……

time flies.

It was dawn, and the sun rose, shining warmly on the wooden window.

Yu Qingqing woke up slowly, opened the window, breathed in the fresh air, and saw a beautiful scenery in front of her.

She saw Su Yi on the bed at a glance, raised her eyebrows and smiled.

He turned around and left the room, and went straight to the dining room. When he came back, he had a strange thing in his hand, which was wrapped in cloth.

After half an hour...

At this time, Qiu Jin should go to Orchid Court to spread the word.

Sure enough, not long after, Qiu Jin came back with a rippling smile on her face. When she opened the door, her pupils trembled.

"Miss Qingqing, are you sure you want to go to Shangshufu in this suit?"

I saw Yu Qingqing, she was wrapped in plain clothes, and her three thousand black hairs were tied up slightly with wooden hairpins, loose and loose.

With a plain face facing the sky, he can raise his hands and throw his feet, all showing flattery.

Yu Qingqing turned around, grinned and said, "Don't ask these useless things, how are things going?"

Qiu Jin clapped her hands, and replied with a deep smile, "Girl, don't worry about the slaves' work, the old lady and the others have already set off, tell us to follow up quickly."

"Understood, hurry up and prepare the carriage."

"Miss, Lord Tianyi has already prepared." Qiu Jin quickly responded.

Yu Qingqing frowned, and said in astonishment, "What is he going to do?"

"The slave does not know."

Forget it, let's go, she tidied up, and the master and servant both left the Yafengyuan.

Tian Yi had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and when she saw her come out, she was shocked at first, then chuckled, puzzled and said, "Miss Qingqing, are you going to attend the beggar gang meeting?"

"How did you speak?"

"Miss Qingqing, look for yourself." At this moment, Tian Yi was laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten up.

Yu Qingqing looked down, only to find that there were two patches of different colors on both sides of the light brown plain clothes.

I'm going, it's really a bit like the leader of the beggar gang, she couldn't help laughing, and went straight to the carriage, saying, "It doesn't matter, go to Shangshufu quickly, or the old lady should wait."

"That's right, let's go."

……

Shang Shufu.

The sound of gongs and drums, firecrackers are equally famous, and it is very lively.

There was an endless stream of guests, lingering at the gate of the mansion, giving gifts and greetings.

A carriage slowly approached the entrance of the mansion, attracting a lot of attention.

Some people recognized Tian Yi at a glance, and couldn't help sighing, "It turned out to be the carriage of An Guohou's mansion, no wonder it is so magnificent."

The person next to him said with some doubts, "The one who just entered?"

"That's the old lady."

"I heard that the person sitting in this carriage is the future Mrs. An Guohou, and she is also a talented woman who is softer on the Holy One."

"Yes, I also heard that she contributed a lot to the battle of the Black Wood Forest, and even made a new type of weapon called... what is it called?..."

"Dynamite pack."

"Yes, yes, yes... I heard that it is very powerful. As soon as the emperor returned to Beijing, he ordered the people below to build an arsenal."

"..."

People's discussions were passed into Yu Qingqing's ears verbatim.

She smiled similarly to Qiu Jin, and got out of the carriage directly. At this time, everyone's eyes were on her.

Some were terrified, some were shocked, some were dumbfounded with their mouths open, and some...

I can't believe that the woman in front of me is the treasure in the palm of An Guohou's stick.

Yu Qingqing didn't care so much, she directly raised the hem of the ordinary skirt, and went up to meet him, and saw that the person in the high hat at the entrance of the mansion was Lord Shangshu.

She stepped forward, slightly supported her and said, "Little girl Yu Qingqing, congratulations to Mr. Shangshu, happy to have a grandson."

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, please come to the girl." Master Shang Shu said politely.

He is dressed in fine blue silk, the snow border embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns and the suet jade hairpin on it complement each other.

It subtly highlights that he was also an extraordinary figure of a noble son.

That smile was a bit of the frivolity of a romantic boy.

The chin was slightly raised, and there was a different kind of light in the middle of the apricot-shaped eyes, looking at Yu Qingqing intermittently.

This girl is covered by the Holy Majesty and An Guohou, no matter where she was born, what shoes or clothes she wears, he dare not offend her.

Yu Qingqing smiled sweetly, motioned for Qiu Jin to come forward, took the things in her hand and said, "Lord Shang Shu, please give me some kindness."

"Girl, the old lady has already given you an expensive gift." Lord Shang Shu looked at the bulging bag in her hand, very puzzled.

What kind of gift is this big?

She smiled charmingly, and handed over the gift, "The old lady is the old lady, I am me, and they have nothing to do with each other."

"And don't touch this gift, put it there lightly, and when the banquet starts, I will give you a surprise."

"Yo... so mysterious?"

"of course."

"Come here, carefully keep Miss Qingqing's gift." Lord Shangshu raised his sword eyebrows, feeling inexplicably curious.

"Yes, Master Shang Shu."

Even Qiu Jin and Tian Yi were curious about what was inside it?
……

The backyard of Shangshu Mansion.

All the female relatives of the famous nobles gathered together, chatting and laughing happily.

The old lady was no exception, sitting in the most honorable position, Zhiliu was by her side, looking around.

At this time, Mrs. Shangshu came to greet her, and said with a big smile, "Thank you for your kindness, for coming to the full moon banquet of my grandson's grandson."

"Housekeeper, hurry up and call some more servants and serve tea to the madam and ladies."

"Yes, ma'am."

As the saying goes, three women play one show.

Now that there are so many women, and they are even chattering, the prime minister's wife has noticed the old lady a long time ago, and asked eccentrically, "Old lady, I heard that An Guohou is going to marry a country girl as his wife, is there such a thing?"

Those two simple sentences made the atmosphere instantly quiet, and all eyes turned to the old lady.

Older gingers are more spicy.

The old lady didn't change her expression, her heart didn't beat, she replied calmly, "Mrs. Xiang, that's all groundless, besides... I already have a suitable candidate."

"Old lady, Marquis An is indifferent by nature. You must not be able to control such a lifelong event, right?" The person who spoke was the wife of the minister of the Ministry of War, whose name was Qi.
