"Hello, Concubine Qing!" Chu Yiqing said quickly. Because he was sitting in a carriage, he couldn't salute, so he just nodded respectfully.
"I am no longer Concubine Qing, just call me Aunt Qing!" Concubine Qing smiled softly, turned her eyes and asked Li Huang: "Is this what you told me?"
Li Huang nodded, "Concubine, that's her!"
Concubine Qing stepped forward and gently took Yiqing's hand and said with a smile, "She is really outstanding in appearance, and her speech is also very decent. She is a good girl!"
Chu Yiqing didn't know what Li Huang had said to Concubine Qing before, but seeing that Concubine Qing was so kind, he nodded to her with satisfaction. He didn't expect that the first meeting with Li Huang's mother and concubine would be so sudden and simple, so he didn't immediately
Know what to say!
"It's a pity that this is the first time we meet under such circumstances, and I don't have anything with me. Well, although this white jade bracelet is not worth much, it is what I always carry with me. Don't dislike it either.
"Take it!" Concubine Qing said, taking off a white jade bracelet from her arm and placing it in Yiqing's hand.
"Ms. Qing Fei, it's so embarrassing. I can't accept such a heavy gift from you when we meet for the first time!" Chu Yiqing quickly declined.
Li Huang smiled and said: "Just accept it. If my mother-in-law gives it to you, just take it. If you don't accept it, you will really be out of touch!"
Chu Yiqing had no choice but to accept it.
Li Huang saw that she was still a little embarrassed, so he held her hand tightly and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, my mother-in-law is very kind, and I will ask you for help this time!"
Chu Yiqing was startled and quickly asked: "What can I help you with?"
Li Huang glanced at Concubine Qing and knew that time was running out now. He could not go into details, so he just whispered: "I want Concubine to go back to Chuhan with you to stay for some time!"
Chu Yiqing was even more startled, but when Li Huang spoke, she couldn't refuse, so she could only nod her head and said: "Of course there is no problem with this, but Chuhan is far away from the remote and poor place. I'm afraid that Concubine Qing won't be used to it!"
Li Huang held Chu Yiqing's hand even more tenderly, "My mother-in-law has been self-reliant for so many years. There is nothing I am not used to. Now time is tight and I don't have time to explain to you. Trust me, I will come when I have the chance."
Let’s go to Chu Han to find you!”
Chu Yiqing nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Concubine Qing!"
Li Huang nodded, and just as he was about to give further instructions, he heard Lei Lei saying from outside: "Master, it's getting late, and we are now forty miles outside the city. We should go back!"
Concubine Qing gently held Li Huang's arm and said, "Go back quickly, so as not to make your father suspicious!"
"Yes, Concubine, please wait for me, I will visit you soon!" Li Huang knew that he had to put on a show, and he could not let his father put the disappearance of Concubine on his head.
He really should go back!
"Don't worry, I will take care of Aunt Qing with you!" Chu Yiqing whispered.
Li Huang nodded, quickly got out of the car, took Lei Yuan with him, and rode away on the horses of Chu Yiqing and Lei Yuan. In this way, Chu Yiqing could only ride in the carriage and sit with Concubine Qing.
The sudden appearance of Concubine Qing was unexpected by Chu Yiqing. Perhaps it was because he had Li Huang in his heart. When he thought that Concubine Qing was Li Huang's mother, Chu Yiqing always felt uncomfortable as an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her mother-in-law.
Perhaps because she had not left Tianlan Academy for so many years, and because she reunited with Li Huang, Concubine Qing was in a good mood. She kept asking about the past between Chu Yiqing and Li Huang, and said: "Huang'er is very young.
I left him when he was young. I really want to know what he did in the past and who he met. I just want to know, please don't bother Aunt Qing!"
Chu Yiqing quickly shook his head and said: "Why, but from now on, I really want to call Concubine Qing as Aunt Qing. Please don't take it personally!"
Concubine Qing took Chu Yiqing's hand and smiled and said: "I know that you suddenly appeared this time and asked you to help me. You must be unprepared. Not only you, I still feel like I am dreaming.
One moment, I was living a dark time in Tianlan Courtyard, and I was still worried about Huang'er's safety. I didn't expect that the next moment he would appear in front of me, and he called me "Mother Concubine". My heart was filled with thousands of words.
No words can express how I feel! I entered the palace at the age of thirteen. I originally thought that I would never leave that palace in my life. I never thought that today I would not only have the opportunity to reunite with Huang'er, but also leave Tianlan Courtyard...
…”
Concubine Qing was so excited that her eyes couldn't help but get wet. Chu Yiqing quickly persuaded: "Aunt Qing, the good days are still to come. The prince has helped me a lot in the past. Now he can help Aunt Qing."
It's my honor, don't say it's not troublesome!"
Concubine Qing was startled and said with a smile: "Is it just a matter of helping? On the way here, Huang'er praised you all the way and said that you are nothing in the sky or on earth. I can see what Huang'er is thinking, and you
I also understand the look in Huang'er's eyes!"
Chu Yiqing felt embarrassed after being told by Concubine Qing. Fortunately, he had already arrived in a town. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Chu Yiqing ordered Lei Yuan to find an inn to stay.
When Concubine Qing left the palace for the first time, she saw that everything was novel. As soon as she got off the carriage, she went straight to the roadside snack stall. She saw that everything was strange. A person in his thirties looked like a child, pointing.
Looking at the food, he asked, "Yiqing, what is that?"
Chu Yiqing took a look and couldn't help but laugh: "Aunt Qing, that's a red bean bowl cake, this one's an iced fruit, and this one's a tofu noodle!" As Chu Yiqing spoke, he let the vendors do their own thing.
She packed a portion and said with a smile, "Aunt Qing, let's go to the inn to eat. It's inconvenient because there are so many people outside!"
Concubine Qing nodded, followed Chu Yiqing into the inn room, and said with a smile: "Yiqing, don't laugh at Aunt Qing. These snacks were not available before I entered the palace. When I came out, everything looked strange.
!”
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "No way, Aunt Qing is really good-natured, and she is easy to get along with at first sight. But I am not familiar with this place. In addition, it is close to the capital, so I have to beware of the emperor's eyes and ears. When I get to Chu Han, where
This is my territory. There is a night market in the evening, which is very lively. Then I can take you out for a walk!"
When Concubine Qing heard this, she immediately looked forward to Chu Han. She nodded and said, "Okay, I listen to you. Let's rest for a while and have a meal before hurrying on. It's not too hard to take a carriage!"
Seeing her being so anxious, Chu Yiqing couldn't help but smile. But thinking about it, they couldn't get to a safe place now, so it would be a good idea to travel overnight to avoid causing too much trouble. He immediately ordered Lei Yuan to take care of Qing.
Concubine Qing, Chu Yiqing went out to buy two new quilts and put them in the carriage. They also bought some snacks and snacks to save Concubine Qing from getting bored on the road. After the arrangements were almost made, it was almost Haishi, and the three of them simply ate.
Some things have to be driven overnight.
The carriage was covered with quilts, which made it much more comfortable whether lying down or sitting. Concubine Qing liked it very much and kept praising Chu Yiqing for her thoughtfulness.
After spending half a day together, Chu Yiqing discovered that Concubine Qing was not as difficult to get along with as she had imagined. On the contrary, she had a soft temper, talked with a smile, and seemed to be very talkative. Once the grudge in her heart was removed, the two of them
They got along very harmoniously.
Chu Yiqing took Concubine Qing to Chu Han day and night, but Shangguan Yu and Helian Bingshuang fell in love with living in Shangjia Village.
With picturesque green mountains, vast fields, clear water flowing by the river, willows stretching in the wind, plus lotus flowers blowing in the wind and the fragrance of rice, Shangjia Village in summer is indeed uniquely beautiful.
Shangguanyu and Heliang Bingshuang walked along the embankment, chatting while walking. Coupled with the scenery everywhere, Helian Bingshuang felt that he had merged into the light of the field.
"Ms. sir, you really didn't lie to me. If you were really wearing silk and satin with a head full of pearls in this simple farmhouse scenery, even if you came to appreciate it, you wouldn't be able to appreciate the beauty of this simple field!" Helian Bingshuang
She smiled and said, maybe it was the two of them being alone together in the past few days that made her bolder, and she took the initiative to hold Shangguan Yu's hand.
Shangguan Yu said with a smile: "That's natural. The scenery in this village is not as beautiful as the countryside. You wear gold and silver and bring a lot of maids and women. How can you have that artistic conception? Let me tell you, let's take a look like this.
It’s not enough to go there. If you can buy a piece of land and grow some food by yourself, watch the crops you planted grow day by day, and wait until the harvest time to pick again, it will be really enjoyable!”
Hearing what Shangguan Yu described was so interesting, Helian Bingshuang was a little tempted and immediately said: "Mr. sir, let's buy a piece of land to grow some food. I just don't know what we can grow this season?"
Helian Bingshuang was the eldest lady in the city and didn't know anything about farming. She looked up and saw farmers fertilizing and weeding the fields, so she wanted to go up and ask.
Seeing that Helian Bingshuang really took it seriously, Shangguan Yu pulled her back and said with a smile: "Let's stay here for a while. When Miss Chu comes back, I will leave after completing my mission. How can I wait for the crops to mature?"
Besides, the land around Shangjia Village now belongs to Miss Chu. Look at it, it’s all planted, and there’s no free land for you. If you really want to do farm work, why not come with me and help pick watermelons?
I watched for a long time that day, and the task of picking watermelons was still very interesting!"
Helian Bingshuang felt that everything he did together with Shangguan Yu would be good, so he immediately agreed. The two held hands and walked on the uneven ground to the watermelon field.
This year's watermelon harvest is still good. At first, due to the impact of the chaotic market, the sales were not good. Now that the market has stabilized, there have been a lot more people harvesting watermelons. Sun Guangming and Zhao Xiaomai led more than a dozen people to pick them up every day.
In the watermelon field, some were picking watermelons and some were loading them into cars. Although the weather was hot, I felt happy looking at the big round watermelons.
Everyone is taking a rest at the moment, and they have just opened a large watermelon with a tilted head. Although the price of this watermelon is not high, the swollen part is particularly sweet, so melon farmers usually eat this type of watermelon with a tilted head.
.
"Master Shangguan, Madam Shangguan, come on, come and eat watermelon, it's so sweet!" Zhao Xiaomai greeted Shangguan Yu and Helian Bingshuang when he saw them from a distance.
Shangguan Yu smiled and led Helian Bingshuang over, one step at a time, into the melon shed.
Zhao Xiaomai quickly took a clean sack and spread it on the plank bed for the two of them to sit on. Then he cut a watermelon for them to taste. He smiled honestly and said: "Boss Shangguan, Mrs. Shangguan, don't look at this watermelon.
But it is the most delicious. This kind of watermelon with a tilted head has all the sugar concentrated in the swollen part on this side, making it especially sweet!"
Helian Bingshuang tasted it and felt that it was different from the watermelon she had eaten in the city, so she immediately ate an extra piece.
When he was full of watermelon, Shangguan Yu rolled up his sleeves and said, "You can't eat watermelon for free. I'll help you pick the watermelon. It looks easy now!"
Zhao Xiaomai quickly said: "How dare you bother Boss Shangguan? It's hot and the sun is shining. Boss Shangguan should just sit with his wife in the melon shed and rest. Besides, with just this little guy, we'll be done by the afternoon!"
Shangguan Yu said with a straight face: "Brother Zhao dislikes my job?"
Zhao Xiaomai quickly waved his hand and said: "What did Boss Shangguan say? I'm afraid that I'll tire Boss Shangguan!"
"Since it's not the case, that's fine. My wife and I are both novices. Brother Zhao, you need to teach us a lot!" Shangguan Yuzheng was talking when he saw Helian Bingshuang had already stepped forward to pick a big watermelon and hugged him with a smile on his face.
Can't close my mouth from ear to ear.
"Oh, Mrs. Shangguan, this watermelon isn't ripe yet!" Zhao Xiaomai couldn't help but stepped forward and said.
Helian Bingshuang was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Is there any distinction between ripe and unripe watermelon?"
Zhao Xiaomai was stunned, and laughed out loud at Helian Bingshuang's words, "Mrs. Shangguan, these watermelons are naturally divided into ripe and unripe ones. When picking watermelons, you can't just look at the size. Look at this, even though the size is
It’s big, but it looks like it has a very crisp sound, and it sounds like it’s undercooked. If you don’t believe me, I’ll cut it open and show it to you!”
Helian Bingshuang nodded, she didn't believe it. The watermelons here were so big, how could they be unripe?
Zhao Xiaomai took the beheaded head and chopped the watermelon into pieces. Sure enough, the watermelon was just pink and tasted not sweet at all.
"Haha, madam, you are so embarrassed, you picked an underripe watermelon!" Shangguan Yu couldn't help but stepped forward and teased.
Helian Bingshuang was also embarrassed, but when she heard Shangguan Yu's teasing, she felt sweet in her heart, so she said coquettishly: "You are still talking about me, can you?"
Shangguan Yu said with a smile: "Don't forget that there is a vegetable and fruit shop in my shop. If you don't know how to pick watermelons, how can you buy them?"
As Shangguan Yu spoke, he walked straight to the sweet potato field, picked from left to right, picked a medium-sized watermelon, picked it off, and brought it over.
Zhao Xiaomai patted the melons and laughed and said, "It's really ripe. I didn't expect Mr. Shangguan to know how to pick melons!"
Helian Bingshuang wrinkled his little nose and said: "It's not incision, I don't believe it!"
Shangguan Yu said: "It is very hard to grow this watermelon. If you still want to eat it, then I will cut it. If you don't want it to come out, don't waste it!"
Zhao Xiaomai said quickly: "Master Shangguan left his business to help my sister. How can my family not even part with a watermelon? Cut it up!"
As Zhao Xiaomai spoke, he cut the watermelon open. It was really red flesh, and it tasted both sandy and sweet!
After this round of competition, Helian Bingshuang was convinced and concentrated on learning how to pick melons from Shangguan Yu and Zhao Xiaomai. He was so busy that he even forgot the time to go home for dinner!
"Oh, Boss Shangguan, Mrs. Shangguan, why are you here?" Jin Yu took Li Zi and searched around the village for a long time before finding two. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Lunch has been prepared a long time ago. I'll wait for you."
You didn’t even come, I thought you were lost!”
Shangguan Yu then straightened up and looked at the sky, and couldn't help but laugh: "I was just doing my work, but I forgot about the time!"
Helian Bingshuang also straightened up, moved his whole body and smiled: "Yes, I have never felt that time flies by so fast. Picking watermelons is really fun!"
Jin Yu couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Boss Shangguan, Mrs. Shangguan, it's your first time picking, so naturally you find it interesting, but you have never done any rough work. Your arms and waist will definitely hurt at night, so you should rest quickly.
!”
"Really?" Helian Bingshuang was dubious. She only felt that she was in good spirits and it was very interesting to be with Shangguan Yu. She never thought that her arms and waist would hurt afterwards.
"That's natural. Why don't you go back and rest now? I'll go to Dr. Xu's place to grab some medicine to relax your muscles and activate your muscles. You'll feel better after drinking it!" Jin Yu said quickly.
Helian Bingshuang nodded: "Thank you so much, bitch!"
As soon as Jin Yu heard Helian Bingshuang call her wife, she felt happy immediately. Then she looked at Helian Bingshuang who had taken off her fine clothes without her maid and mother-in-law. The cloth she wore was much more pleasing to the eye, so she became warm and warm as she walked.
He and Helian Bingshuang were talking about the customs in this village, and the two of them chuckled from time to time.
In the past, after dinner, Helian Bingshuang would go back to his room to rest. Although he was tired today, Helian Bingshuang was very interested. He took Jinyu to listen to the interesting things happening in the village, and even learned the dialect along with him. He actually forgot that he was sending his mother-in-law with him.
Going back, I got used to the life in Shangjia Village.
A Bao became much better after having a bad temper that day. As soon as he saw Shangguan Yu pestering him, he kept asking when he would come back. Shangguan Yu was annoyed by his questions and said:
"Okay, okay, Abao, your mother will come back after finishing her business. By the way, I still remember that you loved jade pendants when you were a child. How about I give you the jade pendant to play with?"
Abao raised his eyebrows proudly: "I don't want your jade pendant, because I have many, and I have the biggest one!"
Speaking of jade pendants, Abao was the most proud. After asking Lei Ting for a hundred yuan last time, plus the piece given by Li Huang, his jade pendants filled a small box.
"Really? Then take it out and show it to me!" Shangguan Yu deliberately teased him.
Abao nodded, took Shangguan Yu into the room, took the box out, and opened it for Shangguan Yu to see.
Shangguan Yu was startled when he saw the Huang Prince's waist badge lying in the box. He didn't expect that Li Huang actually gave all the tokens representing the Fifth Prince to Abao. This shows that Li Huang was kind and loyal, and finally lived up to Yi Qing.
In the past, he was still worried about Li Huang's identity as a dragon son. Now that Li Huang is no longer a dragon son, this is a relief. He can live together with Chu Yiqing!
