Daiyu's stepmother is not easy to be

Qin Keqing's two close maids, Ruizhu and Baozhu, are only half a year apart in age, but their temperaments are quite different.

Ruizhu has Qin Keqing's temperament, cautious and thoughtful.Although Baozhu has good manners, she is innocent by nature.

Hearing grandma's question, Baozhu spoke bluntly, and said with a smile: "Master has invited Second Master Lian and Brother Qiang from the West Mansion, and Mr. Lai and other housekeepers."

"The second grandma of Lian in the Xifu of the women's family said she was not feeling well, so she didn't come. Only our old lady, second aunt and third aunt came."

Qin Keqing heard that Mrs. You, mother and daughter came again, pretending to be casual and sighed: "My mother and aunts have come more diligently this year than in previous years."

Qin Keqing has been ill for more than a year, Baozhu almost never went out of the courtyard, and has been serving her personally.Even if there is any gossip, it will not reach her ears.

Baozhu is also a solid girl, she doesn't quite understand the twists and turns in these words.

So Baozhu heard grandma say this, thought for a while, then smiled and replied: "That's not true. It's only been less than half a year, and my mother and two aunts and grandmas have come here five or six times, almost every month." .”

Qin Keqing heard Baozhu's still ignorant voice, felt a little funny, and asked her: "You don't have any doubts, why are the two aunts and grandmothers here so diligently?"

After hearing Qin Keqing's question, Baozhu became puzzled, and replied, "They are all relatives, and it's common for them to get closer."

"Besides, the two aunts and grandmas are both old, maybe they are begging the eldest grandma to make a good marriage for the prime minister, I don't know."

Qin Keqing smiled slightly: "You don't worry about it."

Bao Zhu took it for granted, "I am not the girl of the two aunts, and the aunts also have their own girls to worry about. I just need to worry about grandma."

As she said that, Baozhu looked at Qin Keqing's face and said with a smile, "Grandma's complexion is much better now than it was years ago."

Qin Keqing panicked and ordered her to say, "Bring me a mirror and have a look."

According to Baozhu's words, Baozhu brought a gold-plated target mirror inlaid with various pearls and gemstones, and held it in front of Qin Keqing.

Qin Keqing took a brief photo, and saw that although her complexion was better, she still couldn't compare with ordinary people.Coupled with the fact that no makeup was applied, she still looked haggard due to illness, and she was relieved from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing that the You family sisters came so diligently, I'm afraid it really means what the mother-in-law said, and the two of them are indeed willing to do so.

Qin Keqing turned over to face the wall, caressing her chest, her mind was full of thoughts.

Even such people can live well in the world, why can't I?

Wait a little longer, and when the father-in-law can't do without the Youshi sisters, he can slowly get better.

If his fate is good, he will quickly conceive a child with Jia Rong before he comes to his senses.

No matter how shameless the father-in-law is, he would never have any plans for his grandson's biological mother... right?

A thin smile floated on Qin Keqing's face.

However, it is said that Liu Xianglian left Beijing early in the morning on the sixth day of April, and traveled fast all the way, staying in a shop, and sleeping in the open air when she missed Sutou. After driving for more than ten days, she finally saw the Yanping City Wall.

Entering Yanping is the territory of Shaanxi.

And Lu Qianhu's residence is eight hundred miles away from Yanping Mansion, located in Yinwei Mansion City in Gansu.

And the journey from Yanping to Yinwei is not as prosperous as that from Jingzhong to Yanping. There are inns along the way.Liu Xianglian had already decided to rest here for two days before going on the road.

It just so happened that General Feng's brother-in-law and Mrs. Feng's husband Zhang Zhizhou Rendi Town Yuanzhou was on the way from Yanping to Yinwei.

Liu Xianglian also carried a letter from General Feng and his wife to Mrs. Feng.If you want to come to visit and deliver letters, you can't have a weathered face, a dusty body, and it's not very good-looking.

Moreover, Liu Xianglian has traveled more than [-] li from the middle of Beijing to this place, without resting every day, and she is exhausted.

So Liu Xianglian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the city wall of Yanping. Seeing that the sky was approaching Shenshi (three o'clock in the afternoon), if it was later, she would not be able to enter the city, so she hurried on.

When she got to the gate of the city, Liu Xianglian dismounted from her horse as usual when she went out to enter the city, took out the guidebook from her arms, and handed it to the gate guard.

Unexpectedly, the Yanping guards are several times stricter than other places.

Seeing that the sign on Liu Xianglian's road was not written by a local person, the three city gate guards read it together and asked Liu Xianglian to stand aside and wait.

Two of the three left to guard Liu Xianglian, and one of them ran to the city wall quickly, invited a military academy down, and asked Liu Xianglian several questions in detail, corresponding to what was written on the road guide.

I heard that Liu Xianglian was going to join the army at Yinwei City in Border Pass, and had to send a letter to the prefect of Zhenyuan Prefecture. The military academy asked Liu Xianglian to take out the letter.

At first Liu Xianglian thought that these soldiers thought he was a foreigner and wanted to make things difficult for him and blackmail him.

It's just that although these soldiers from the military academy carefully interrogated them, they didn't find it embarrassing.

Seeing that Liu Xianglian explained everything clearly about his origins and whereabouts, although he was tired from the journey, he was well dressed, his appearance was dignified, and he had a Beijing accent, so he was let into the city, and then the next person was questioned.

Liu Xianglian had never been to Shaanxi-Gansu before, she only thought that because this place was close to the border, it was so complicated to check into the city, so she didn't suspect it.

After collecting the documents and letters, Liu Xianglian led the horse into the city, got on the horse again, and found an inn to settle down.

After taking a bath and changing clothes, he ordered food and a jug of wine. While eating and drinking, he listened to the locals in the lobby talking about recent news in the city.

Martial arts practitioners are more sensitive to the surrounding environment than ordinary people, and their hearing is slightly better than ordinary people. The voices in the lobby are not avoiding people, and Liu Xianglian can also hear eight or nine.

On the other side of the lobby, there were a few businessmen who looked like they were pushing glasses and talking happily.

After drinking a few cups, the old man with a gray beard who looked to be in his 50s or nearly 60s said, "The city gate was just a routine check when the delivery came last time. Why is it so cumbersome to enter the city this time?"

"We are also used to walking. My face has been coming and going for more than 20 years. It is said that even if we are questioned, we will not be able to find out about us."

The tablemates were all adults two or thirty years younger than him. Hearing what the old man said, he smiled nonchalantly and said, "Your old man is starting to worry again."

"Brother Gatekeeper has already said that this is because of the war with Wala last year. He is afraid that spies will come in, so everyone who enters the city must be questioned. Isn't this just letting us in smoothly?"

The other also persuaded: "Now our family's life is better, you old man should worry less, even if something happens, everything will be with us, you can just enjoy the happiness."

The old man saw the juniors trying to persuade him, he didn't want to spoil the fun by relying on his elders, so he just swallowed the words back to his stomach.

But the old man had a doubt in his heart.

Today I saw several military academies on the city wall, and one of them seemed to be a young man who went out from his hometown to join the Ningyuan Army.

Let it go, maybe it's because I'm dazzled.

Liu Xianglian listened from the other side, keeping these words in her heart.

After all, he is a son of a princely family, and he has studied for a few years, so he sees things better than those small businessmen.

Thinking of the rigorous interrogation by the guards when they entered the city, Liu Xianglian couldn't help but wonder inwardly, did something really happen?

But even if something happened, Liu Xianglian had no official or job right now, so she couldn't talk, so she had to take a good rest for two days, and then left the city for Zhenyuanzhou.

Liu Xianglian rode fast for three days and arrived outside the city of Zhenyuanzhou.

This time, after dismounting from her horse, Liu Xianglian not only took out the road citation documents, but also prepared the letters and other things requested by the gate guards of Yanping Fucheng last time.

Unexpectedly, this time when the guards at the city gate of Zhenyuanzhou saw Liu Xianglian, they did not question him harshly, they only looked carefully at the road guide, asked him a few words, and let him into the city.

This made Liu Xianglian a little puzzled.

But since it came in smoothly, it was always a good thing.Liu Xianglian didn't get on the horse, but asked the city gate guards where the state government was, and said they wanted to send a letter to the magistrate.

Hearing what he said, the city gate guards turned serious and looked around him. They exchanged glances again, and the leader asked, "Who wants you to deliver the letter? What is your relationship with Master Zhizhou?"

Filled with helplessness, Liu Xianglian had no choice but to repeat what she had just prepared to be useless.

After the guards listened, another person went to the city gate and reported to the military academy.After a while, a military academy came down and said with a serious face: "Please come with me, Mr. Liu, and I will take you to meet the master of Zhizhou."

At this moment, Liu Xianglian was finally sure that something had changed in the Shaanxi-Gansu area.

As long as he had a clear conscience in his heart, he naturally had nothing to be afraid of, so he cupped his fists and said with a smile, "Please trouble me, sir."

The military academy didn't even order to lead the horse, so it only asked two more people to follow, half escort and half watch, and sent Liu Xianglian to the front of the government office.

The journey along the way was not as dull as Liu Xianglian imagined.

On the road, some common people greeted the soldiers from time to time, and their tone was very familiar.The soldiers of the military academy were also chatting and laughing with the common people.

When someone asked who the young master who led the horse was, the military academy replied that a relative of Mr. Zhizhou came to visit him, and he did not see the serious expression on his face when he was talking to Liu Xianglian.

Zhenyuanzhou City is not big, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to arrive at the gate of the state government.

The military academy spoke to the officer guarding the gate of the yamen, and within a moment of the officer entering to report back, a beautiful woman in a magenta flower beige and a red brocade skirt came striding forward.

The beautiful woman saw Liu Xianglian from a distance and said with a smile: "I said who it is, it really is you Liu boy!"

"Why haven't we seen each other for more than a year, and you seem to be a different person? Sure enough, the Lin family is so good at teaching people?"

Liu Xianglian hurriedly knelt down to beg for peace and said, "Nephew has seen Aunt Feng."

This smart and beautiful woman in red is Mrs. Feng.

The folk customs in the northwest area are much more open than those in Jiangnan and other places in the capital. Even the wives of officials and girls don't need to wear any hats when they go out.

Mrs. Feng has been here for more than half a year, and she does as the Romans do. She was originally a daughter of a general's family, and now she looks even more free and easy.

She raised her hand to give her a little help, and said with a smile: "Your uncle is busy now. You come in first to have a rest, and I will buy wine for you to cleanse the dust at night."

Only then did the muscles and bones on the shoulders of the military academy and the two city gate guards loosen.

Liu Xianglian also felt something, thinking that if there was anything wrong with her, she would have been arrested and sent to prison.

Along the way, first the guards at the city gate quietly and strictly checked the people entering the city, and after three or five days, they quietly became loose on the outside and tight on the inside.

What happened in the Shaanxi-Gansu area?

Liu Xianglian thought to herself.

The author has something to say:

Come, come, come~ Northwest is a good place =w=

Explanation [-]: The events of Liu Xianglian in this chapter all happened in April.Liu Xianglian’s route: Capital City—Yanping Mansion (entering the city for renovation)—Zhenyuan Prefecture (delivering a letter to Mrs. Feng)——Yinwei Mansion (the location of Lu Qianhu and Lu Rong, the final destination of Liu Xianglian, this chapter has not yet arrived)

Explanation [-]: The administrative divisions of Dayan are divided into provinces, prefectures, prefectures and counties. (Privately set up according to the Ming and Qing systems combined with the circumstances of this article.)

Explanation [-]: The place names in the article are all privately set by me after checking the previous information (this is one of the reasons why the update is so late today QAQ)

The Shaanxi mentioned in the article is not much different from the geographical location and total area of ​​today's Shaanxi.In the article, Yanping, Shaanxi is now Yan'an, Shaanxi, and then eastward near the border of Shaanxi.

Gansu mentioned in the article includes the entire territory of present-day Gansu and Ningxia, as well as a part of Xinjiang in the northwest.Yinweifu City is located in the geographical location of Ningxia today.

As mentioned in the article, the border of Qinghai in the south is only about the Kunlun Mountains, and there is also a part of Xinjiang in the northwest.

The Sichuan mentioned in the article includes today's Sichuan and Chongqing.

(Again! All the above are privately set up by me according to the needs of this article! Motherland, territory, land, god, holy, no, tolerance, invasion, invasion!)

Modified the previous bug: now it is set that the Feng family and the Liu family are not very close family friends.After Liu Xianglian's parents died, the Feng family also helped her a few times, but they were not close relatives, and they didn't have deep help.Later, Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian had a good relationship.

The end of chapter 113 and the beginning of chapter 114 have been modified, so if you don’t look back, it won’t affect the next plot~
