Latest website: Early the next morning, Zhou Chengcheng went out with his sons refreshed and went on business.
Pei Xiu slept well all night, and only woke up after three poles in the sun. Some time ago, I was so worried and couldn't sleep at night, but I made up for it in the past two days.
Looking at the radiant appearance of the lady in the mirror, Ginkgo smiled and said jokingly: "As soon as the lord comes back, the lady is also alive."
She pursed her lips and smiled.
Just after finishing the trivial matters in the mansion, the concierge came to report that Mrs. Qiu was here.
She was a little surprised. Why did Mrs. Qiu suddenly come to the door?
"Quickly invite Mrs. Qiu to the main courtyard."
She was waiting at the entrance of the main hall, and when Mrs. Qiu came over, she invited people into the room after the two had met.
Pei Xiu walked inside and said, "It's too cold outside, and a mouthful of cold wind will blow you away. Let's go in and talk."
"Well, what Sister Pei said is." Mrs. Qiu held her in his arms and said with a smile, "I came to the door without posting a post today, did Sister Pei blame her?"
"How come, it's too late for me to welcome you. During this period of time, because of the disappearance of my husband, I have trouble sleeping and eating, and I don't have the heart to go out to visit. I was thinking of visiting you at Qiu's residence in a few days, but I didn't expect you to come first. I'm here." Pei Xiu took her to sit down, and Ginkgo winked at tea.
"It's the same for me. It's rare to find a suitable husband, but we separated soon after we got married, but I can't do anything about it. I can't wait to go to the border with him.
"We share the same disease and pity each other. Fortunately, the people we care about have come back safely." Pei Xiu felt the same way, and so did she.
"Fortunately, I'm back, and I can breathe a sigh of relief. To tell you the truth, I was afraid that I would become a widow as soon as I got married, and become the laughing stock of the whole city again." Madam Qiu was relaxed and did not shy away from speaking directly with herself. .
Pei Xiu smiled. She had also heard a little about when she was a girl before. "As a military general, there will be more moments of separation in the future, and we must learn to relax our hearts."
"I've been prepared for this for a long time. My parents' family was also a military commander. He just left as soon as they got married, and I couldn't turn around. I was really worried that I would become a widow."
"Master Qiu is a battle-hardened general. He is much better than my husband. My husband has been disarmed and returned to the field for ten years. When he said that he disappeared, I was really worried. I was really afraid that something would happen to him." Pei Xiu said sincerely. .
"Don't talk about that, it's good to return safely anyway."
She nodded.
Mrs. Qiu smiled again and said, "I came here uninvited today, I just wanted to see you. My husband always said that Lord Zhou is very lucky, and the farmer has not been in vain for ten years. While he is in the yamen, I will also come out for a walk. These two I've been at home for months and I'm feeling depressed."
"In the future, I can treat this as my own home. Come here whenever you want. I welcome you at any time. If it weren't for the help of Mr. Qiu, our couple would not be where we are today. I haven't been out for a month. It's cold and I'm lazy. already."
She paused, remembering that the clothes from Jinxiufang hadn't been delivered yet. He frowned and said, "I ordered a few sets of clothes at Jinxiufang more than a month ago, but they haven't been delivered yet. I don't know if it's because of the plum banquet and I'm busy."
"This year's plum reward banquet has been postponed. When my mother-in-law's brother and sister-in-law came to the door yesterday, my sister-in-law also asked me to prepare in advance. The prince returns safely, and the princess's illness is cured without medicine. I have already ordered someone to arrange it."
"I'll go with you when the time comes? I'm unfamiliar with this place, and I've never attended this kind of banquet, so I'm not sure."
"Okay, don't think I'm too much right and wrong. I've been there with my sister-in-law many times when I was unmarried, and I'm quite familiar with it. I'm just afraid that someone will ridicule me and make you uncomfortable."
"I'm a country woman who is also afraid of embarrassing you. I originally planned to hide away by myself and find a place to clean up."
The two talked to each other about their shortcomings, looked at each other and smiled, and felt a little pity for each other. It's good to be a companion, and there are people who can't open their eyes to find fault, just to be able to fight together.
Having said that, she said to Ginkgo: "You can go to Jinxiufang later and ask, when will the clothes I ordered some time ago be delivered? Don't come to me and tell me that it can't be done. "
Just as Ginkgo was about to agree, she heard Mrs. Qiu say, "The weather is nice today, why don't I accompany Sister Pei for a walk. It just so happened that I was idle and I was idle. My family was back, and I also had leisure to go shopping."
Mrs. Qiu has not lost her lively and naive character when she was a girl, and she is as straightforward as Huzi said.
"That's good, it's better to have someone to go shopping with. I haven't visited Dong'an City properly." Hearing her, Pei Xiu was also moved, and she hadn't gone out for a long time.
"Ginkgo, you go and tell Ding Bo and ask him to prepare a horse. Mrs. Qiu and I plan to go shopping together."
"Yes."
"Then my carriage will stop at the gate of your house first, and then take my own carriage back when I come back. Anyway, our two are close."
"Then please wait for my sister. I'll go back to the house and change my clothes. I'll come when I go." She said embarrassedly.
"Nothing, I'll be waiting here." Mrs. Qiu smiled and said indifferently.
Pei Xiu went back to the house to clean up herself, and when there was nothing wrong, she asked Mrs. Li to take care of the child. She took silver taels and went out with Mrs. Qiu.
In the car, Mrs. Qiu familiarly introduced to her where there is delicious food and fun in Dong'an City, which store has the best rouge gouache, and which store's shopkeeper is treacherous.
All of them were named by her name and surname. She had also been down in the family, and she was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of human beings, stepping on the low and holding the high. He also knows the big and small shops in the city like the back of the hand.
"Then I'm coming out with you this time~ It's really the right thing to do, otherwise I'll be blinded, and I don't know where to go shopping." Pei Xiu listened to her gushing. It was found that she was really familiar with the streets and alleys of the city.
"When you live here for a few years, you will be as familiar as me."
"That still won't work. I'm going in and out by horse-drawn carriages. I may know the names of the roads and shops, but I'm not familiar with the streets and alleys. I need to measure it myself to be familiar with it."
Mrs. Qiu giggled and said, "That's true. I also followed my brother when I was a child, and I was so familiar with the streets and alleys."
"Ma'am, Jinxiufang is here."
The two were chatting and laughing in the car, but they didn't expect to arrive so soon.
The two girls got out of the car first, so that they could help their wife.
"Come on, let's go in and see."
