    ?

    Knowing the truth of her assassination suddenly, Xiao Ranqing vented her anger with a book for a while, but regretted it when she calmed down.  She hadn't come to look at the following content eagerly, and just now made such a fuss that alarmed her parents, so it may be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future.

    Sure enough, as Xiaoranqing expected, the Wang family sent Cuihuan to Zhuangzi to work the next day.  With this lesson learned from the past, the maids who kept watch at night in the next few days were very dedicated to their duties, and none of them dared to slack off.  Xiao Ranqing was in a hurry, but she had to wait patiently. Fortunately, the "Historical Records" returned to her pillow under her insistence.

    In this way, it was another half month, and Yu Wang and his son, who had stayed in Jiangnan County for nearly a month, had to leave for another place.  After all, Prince Yu's fief is not only a small Jiangnan County, the entire Dongzhou needs him to inspect.  Staying here for so long is considered an exception, and it will be too late if you don't make the schedule.

    At the gate of the city, Su Changfeng and other officials watched the group of guards surrounded by the carriage go further and further away, and somewhat felt the mood when the Tang family sent Prince Yu and his son out of the mansion that day.  The troublesome pair left, and Su Changfeng, the sheriff, was free again.  So, he resumed his comfortable life of going to the Yamen in the morning to play with his daughter at home in the afternoon.  Every time Xiao Ranqing gets annoyed, she can't help but slander, are all the sheriffs so leisurely nowadays?

    It was nearly June, and it was the scorching heat, and the steam rising from the ground made people uncomfortable.  Xiao Ranqing tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, and was soaked in hot sweat after a while.  She was afraid of heat in her previous life, but in this life it seems to be even worse.

    Seeing that his daughter was suffering from the heat, Su Changfeng felt distressed.  Turning to the boy, he said, "Jinshi, go get some ice from the cellar."

    "Master, Bao'er is still young and weak, I'm afraid she won't be able to withstand the cold air of the ice." Mrs. Wang was holding a handkerchief to gently wipe Xiao Ranqing's body, and said disapprovingly.

    After hearing this, Xiao Ranqing's face turned dark again.  How can you survive this summer without ice cubes?

    "I knew that Bao'er was so afraid of heat, I should have set up a private village on Qiyun Mountain." Su Daddy, who was at a loss what to do, was annoyed.

    "The concubine's mother's family has a village in Qiyun Mountain. When I was a child, I went there with my mother a few times. It was really cool. Now my mother is busy going to escape the summer heat. Yesterday, I sent someone to ask if I want to go together.  "The Wang family has operated in Dongzhou for several generations, and the property here is naturally not comparable to that of the Su family who just arrived. "It's just that Qiyun Mountain is quite far from the city, and I thought it might be inconvenient for the master, so I refused."

    Su Changfeng thought about it for a while, and finally made a choice between seeing his daughter suffer or making himself feel uncomfortable, "You take the children, I will stay in the city, and I will visit you on holidays."

    "But if the concubine leaves, who will take care of the master?" Although this is also one of Wang's concerns, what makes her hesitate most is the thoughts of her sisters-in-law. One of her married daughters takes the children back to her natal home for summer  There is always something wrong.

    "Are there so many maids and servants in the mansion just to show off? Shuang'er, you can take the children to escape the summer heat without worrying too much." Su Changfeng could guess some of his wife's thoughts, and persuaded, "  We won't be staying in Jiangnan County for a few years, so you should take this opportunity to spend more time with your father-in-law and mother-in-law." If there is no accident, he will be transferred back to the capital after a year.

    Thinking of her elderly parents, Mrs. Wang finally agreed with a sigh.  So the matter of going to escape the summer heat was finalized in this way, and the Wang family sent someone to the palace to talk about it that day.  Mrs. Wang was very happy to receive the letter, and deliberately postponed the departure date by a day so that her daughter would have enough time to pack her things.

    In the early morning of this day, Mrs. Wang took the children to bid farewell to Su Changfeng and set off with the palace and his party.  Because most of the people who went to escape the summer heat on this trip were old and weak women and children, they walked very slowly all the way, and it was not until two hours later that they finally reached the foot of the mountain.  After another half an hour of bumpy parking, the group of people finally arrived at Biezhuang.

    "The villain Li Jiang has seen the master and the old lady." Li Jiang, the housekeeper here, had already brought the servants of the manor to wait in front of the door, and when he saw a group of people arriving, he led them to salute.

    "Get up," said the unsmiling old man Wang, and walked slowly towards the villa.

    "The residence should be arranged according to the previous years," Mrs. Wang also followed with the support of Mrs. Chen, giving instructions as she walked.

    "Yes, all the villains in the yard have been cleaned up. I just don't know where the second aunt should be arranged?" Li Jiang is also an old man of the Wang family, so it is natural to know how to arrange it.  It's just that more than ten years have passed since Mrs. Wang, and her childhood yard has already been moved to someone else, so she is a little embarrassed.

    "Shuang'er and the others arranged to listen to Songyuan." Mrs. Wang said without thinking.

    "This" Li Jiang said hesitantly, "Actually, there is still an empty yard in the village."

    "Why, don't you know how many mothers and children Shuang'er can live in Songyuan?" Mr. WangMadam frowned dissatisfied, and her tone sank.

    "Nothat's not what villains mean." Tingsong Courtyard is the largest courtyard in the village, not to mention a few people, even dozens of people can live there.  It's just that this arrangement is too partial.

    "Then do it like this." Mrs. Wang doesn't care so much, her daughter finally agrees to come with her, and naturally the closer the residence is to her, the better.

    "Yes." Seeing that the mistress was about to get angry, Li Jiang didn't dare to say more.

    "Shu'er, go to your own yard to tidy up, I have jade beads and jade waiting for you here." After walking for a while, Mrs. Wang turned her head and said to Mrs. Chen.

    The gentle smile on Chen's face froze for a moment, but returned to normal in an instant, "Yes, the daughter-in-law will leave first."

    On the other side, Wang followed the maid who led the way on the familiar path, feeling puzzled.  Although Biezhuang has changed a lot over the years, the general layout has not changed.  If she remembered correctly, this road should lead to Tingsongyuan.

    "Are you sure it's here?" Standing in front of the gate of Tingsong Courtyard, Mrs. Wang couldn't help asking, "Isn't Tingsong Courtyard the residence of the master and the old lady?"

    "Going back to the second aunt, the old lady personally arranged for you to live here." The maid replied.

    Wang's heart sighed, mother still didn't listen to what she said before.  But at this time, it was hard to say anything, so she had to lead the children in.  After entering the house, the children were sent to rest, and Wang ordered the maids to tidy up, and finally put all the things they brought in properly.  He straightened up a little tired, and when he turned his head, he saw his daughter trying to look at him with her pink face full of mat marks.

    "Lazy baby, look at the sleep marks on this face. Come, mother will rub it for you." Wang's mouth was teasing, but his heart was full of joy.  Since the hot weather, the baby girl has not slept so comfortably for a long time.  Maybe it was not a wrong decision to come to escape the summer heat, Wang comforted herself.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
