Chapter 45: Integrating into the Circle with Chicken Fried Steak
“You can still add shrimp and ham to fried rice?”
“Yes! You can also add diced peas, diced bok choy, whatever tastes good, free play!”
Qingyun Hou scooped a few spoons into the bowl, eat up, rice did not go down and quickly clip a piece of back to the pot of meat.
As soon as he looked up and saw Zhao Su who was looking straight at him from across the room, he suddenly remembered, “You also eat!”
“It’s fine, it’s fine, I’m a girl, I don’t need to eat so much!” Zhao Su said as she scooped up a bowl of soup and slipped him a slit, “Father is busy, how hard it is. As long as you get used to eating, my daughter will make it for you every day!”
Marquis Qingyun took the soup and wondered, “How on earth did you learn to cook?”
“Isn’t cooking a necessary lesson for a girl’s family? I found some time to slowly build up, and I knew it.”
“But it’s not as if the skill is so refined!”
“It is said that a tiger father does not have a dog daughter, this is all inherited from your excellence, father!”
Marquis Qingyun hadn’t never heard of flattery, but it was inexplicably comfortable to hear this from the mouth of his own daughter, who had fought against him for more than ten years. Seeing her big watery eyes flashing with aura, his heart also softened.
Although he didn’t know why his daughter’s attitude had suddenly changed drastically, but being able to enjoy the heavenly happiness between father and daughter, nothing mattered.
“I’ve suffered a lot lately, do you have anything you want? Father will buy it for you.”
It was not easy to have a marriage, but as a result, he chose such a family, she must not feel comfortable in her heart, right? Coupled with the fact that Aunt Ning, who had always been treated as her own mother, turned out to be like this, her heart must have been disappointed and hard to bear.
Zhao Su said, “I don’t want anything, I just want father to be healthy and happy.”
“Silly child.” Marquis Qingyun smiled faintly, “There’s no need to beg for this. Say something you don’t have?”
Zhao Su thought for a moment, then said, “I’m afraid you won’t agree.”
“Definitely promise. Say it!”
“Can father not support the Emperor in severely punishing Shi En?”
Marquis Qingyun looked up unexpectedly, “What does this have to do with you?”
“If Shi En falls, there will be many people who want to replace him as the Squire, and in case it’s someone like Xu Chong who takes over up there, will the Flower Moon Society still be able to run well?”
“The court has more than just one Flower Moon Society to maintain,” Marquis Qingyun’s expression turned serious, “There are many more important initiatives and pending decisions than the Flower Moon Society. Before reaching the goal of the common people living in peace and contentment, maintaining the stability of the court, border security, a full treasury, and prosperity in agriculture and commerce are all more important.”
“But the advancement of women’s status will not create a conflict for the stability of the country.”
“In the process of implementation, who knows?” Marquis Qingyun took a sip of his soup and said deeply, “Even if we don’t mention state affairs and only mention the day-to-day, if the requirements for women hadn’t been so loose in recent years, how would Jade Brother’s mother have become a hot potato for you and me? The return of etiquette, in some things it doesn’t seem like a bad thing.”
Zhao Su’s affection, which had just been surging, was immediately defeated by Marquis Qingyun’s logic ……
Aunt Ning’s behavior can also be attributed to the openness of the world, so the world is not open, Aunt Ning can control herself?
Can the return of the religion of propriety make Aunt Ning behave properly?
Zhao Su doesn’t want to talk to him anymore.
Auntie Ning returned in defeat, Mei Ying Zhai made a fuss for half the night, until dawn to stop. After the dawn of the Qingyun Marquis then passed the fourth Zhao Ying, ordered him to go to pick the mansion, and then sent people to adjust the performance of the Ning jade in Tongzhou when the performance of the situation, actually serious fulfillment of the words said last night.
So Auntie Ning can not, can only begin to pack luggage, and so on the house settled will move in.
People have to go, figure a decent, Xing’s three sisters-in-law could not help but come over to say a few words, in order to the future in the capital of this day can not see the head, but also to save Aunt Ning out of the house and then make up Houfu or Zhao Su what.
Aunt Ning, however, regarded this goodwill as gloating, and was polite on the surface, secretly biting her back teeth.
In any case, the matter of cleaning up the Hou’s backyard has been resolved.
Zhao Su in addition to reading and practicing, naturally, will also pretend to go to Mei Ying Zhai walk, anyway, idle is also idle.
The northern sunny days, after lunch in the harem idle and quiet.
Gao Shu carrying a tray into the imperial garden, only to see Empress Dowager Lu Zhiyi listening to pipa music in the pavilion, so she bowed and walked in.
“Empress Dowager, His Majesty seems to be quite busy these days, two days ago, after the morning court, he summoned Minister He of the Ministry of Revenue and Lord Fang, and summoned Marquis Qingyun to the palace, yes, it seems that he also went out of the palace. And just now, the Emperor summoned Great General Xu谙 to the Imperial Study Room.”
Speaking here, he lightly glanced at Empress Dowager Lu’s complexion, and then bent down to bring the soup in the tray to the table, “This is the goat’s milk soup made by the catering room, Empress Dowager, take advantage of the heat.”
Empress Lu maintained her original demeanor, looking at the actress for a long time before withdrawing her gaze and glancing at the plain white and bland soup: “I have no appetite.”
Gao Shu paused.
“Marquis of Qingyun that girl?”
“Back to the empress dowager, the vegetarian girl sent someone a few days ago to say, these days she is not feeling well, can not come to the empress dowager to ask for peace.”
“If she doesn’t come, she doesn’t come? This palace also did not promise ah?”
“……”
Before Gao Shu replied back, Empress Dowager Lu added: “Can you still breathe?”
Gao Shu swallowed his saliva: “Should be able to.” Otherwise can not come up with the idea of letting people deliver words into the palace ah!
“If you can breathe, get a sedan chair to carry her into the palace. If there’s any disease, this palace will cure her!”
Gao Shu murmured, and after a moment said “yes” and turned to go.
Just below the Donghua Gate, he met Xu Shi who came out from the Qianqing Palace.
Gao Shu said hello, but see the other side of the mood is not high, and went away.
Xu谙心里确实有事，否则这样好的寒暄的机会他不可能不抓住。
To know the emperor just passed him, even to transfer him to Shaanxi Longyang as a garrison commander!
Although the transfer of positions is a common thing, he still felt that being transferred at this time was a bit too coincidental. Who does not know that the Marquis of Qingyun high power, think of the other day in the teahouse he put down harsh words, could this be his intention?
Thinking of this, Xu谙心不免免又恼恨起许崇来.
Although Zhao Su is a good point, is not worthy of him, but in the end there is a bullish father, there is a great brother, rushing to such a family history, he put up with it how? At least people look like or not to say, he preferred to act out of anger, and now even his old man’s career also affects!
Back to the mansion, the first to Xu Chong room to see him smiling faintly crooked in bed to see the boys in front of the bed laughing, that gas is not a place, rushed up to the boys kicked over, and then the bed of Xu Chong snapped flung two slaps: “You do good, the marriage is also back, people are also offended, and there is this mind in this laughing? It seems that the beatings are still not enough!”
