In the cold night, there was a sudden torrential rain, and it continued for a long time until dawn.

"Ma'am, do you want to bring these clothes? And these little shoes for the young master and miss."

Qi Qingxi thought for a moment: "You don't need to bring them. Children grow fast, and those clothes can't be worn without wearing them twice. I remember that there are newborn children in Zhuangzi? If you send these clothes over, if they like them Just let them stay."

Sequoia smiled and said: "Look at what you said, this dress was worn by our young master and miss. It is not broken or leaked, and it is all made of high-quality fabrics. They may not have the opportunity to see it in normal times. How can they look down on it?" .”

Qi Qingxi laughed a few times, and asked again: "Is everything packed?"

"Yes." Sequoia replied, "It's all loaded into the carriage."

Qi Qingxi opened his mouth and ordered: "Go to the next door and call two nannies, let them hold the children, let's go back home."

In less than half a month since Shen Zheng went to the northeast border, another major event happened in the capital.

A postman who claimed to be from the northwest frontier rode a tall horse from Yongdingmen to Zhengyangmen Street and began to shout loudly: "Northwest urgent report..."

Cross Zhengyangmen Street, enter Zhengyangmen and enter the inner city, and you can see the solemn and solemn palace at a glance.Because it is close to the imperial palace, although Zhengyangmen Street is located in the outer city, it is extremely bustling and lively, and it is even more crowded when the weather is good.

It just so happened that the day the postman entered the city was in excellent weather. I don't know if it was because of the non-stop driving around the clock. Although the horse the postman rode was tall, it seemed to have little strength, and the speed was very slow.

In addition, the voice of the postman was loud, and he did not hide the content of the urgent report at all. The content of this Northwest urgent report, the news that a group of Tatar tribes jointly invaded the border of Dayu spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital within two days. , known to all men, women and children.

Of course, this news can spread so quickly, and there is some credit for Qi Qingxi, who made her happen to have a few shops where people can drink tea and chat, eat and chat, and the guys in the shops happen to be all Can speak well.

Originally, Li Qiming could have captured the postman first, and then made up an excuse, saying that the Tatar's intentions to commit crimes were all lies made up by the postman, in order to confuse the people of Dayu.

Although the excuse is a bit clumsy, as long as something else happens to attract the attention of the people, the Tatar matter can be concealed.

However, Li Qiming failed to seize the opportunity, and the postman was invited by the Minister of the Ministry of War before entering Zhengyangmen. At this time, Li Qiming made another move to ask for someone, and his motive was intriguing.

Therefore, on the second day, when the Lord Minister of the Ministry of War went to the court, he personally handed over a booklet stating the Tatar's misconduct. All the ministers knew about it as early as the day before, and some even knew it earlier. The day when things are proclaimed and known to all.

When the Tatar army invaded, Li Qiming could no longer back down.

Thinking about it, I discussed it with the staff of the mansion the day before, and since I couldn't stop it, I could only send troops to the northwest, and by the way, I pretended to be ignorant and made some impassioned speeches, so as to earn some reputation for being upright and unyielding .

Needless to say, the soldiers who went to defend the country were all from Li Qiming's faction.

Although Li Qiming, a soldier in the war, can make decisions, the Ministry of Finance cannot make decisions on the preparation of money and food in the early stage. Although Gu Yu has not been in the Ministry of Accounts for a long time, there are many matters in the Ministry of Accounts that Gu Yu does not take care of. Complete.

The matter is of great importance, and the Secretary of the Household Department wrote a letter hoping to reinstate Gu Yu, but Li Qiming had no choice but to back down.

It just so happened that the batch of seasonal seeds brought back by Shao Hua had grown into seedlings and were just waiting to be harvested.

Gu Yu went back to the city as an errand, so Qi Qingxi naturally took the children back together.

With the help of his aunt Guo Shi next door, although Qi Qingxi hasn't come back for several months, everything in the mansion is as usual.Although the house hadn't been lived in for a long time, it wasn't dusty at all, which saved her the trouble of arranging for someone to clean it in advance.

Qi Qingxi had just sat down when she heard two clear voices calling her "Sister" with a smile on her face. She looked up and saw two little girls, A Yue and A Nuan, were stepping into the yard.

As soon as the two entered the room, they began to look around.

"Did the two little nephews fall asleep again?" Ah Nuan asked.

Qi Qingxi nodded slightly in response to her words.

A Yue pulled a stool and sat beside Qi Qingxi, leaned her hands on the table and sighed: "I really envy these newborn girls and boys. They only have to eat and sleep all day long. They are not like us. They learn the rules all day long." Housekeeper, half a day of leisure is hard to come by."

Qi Qingxi was amused by Ah Yue's words, and couldn't help teasing her: "How can I remember that you just stayed at your grandfather's house for two days a few days ago, why is your grandfather's house forcing you to learn the rules?"

Ah Yue glanced at her elder sister in a little surprise, she hadn't been back for so long, how could she even know about her going to her grandfather's house to dodge two days ago.

At this time, she heard the sound of Ah Nuan laughing lightly while covering her handkerchief, and then she remembered that when she returned to her ancestral home, Ah Nuan also went to Zhuangzi outside the city with her third brother Yun Ming to visit her sister, brother-in-law and two little nephew.

Seeing Ah Nuan who was still giggling, she suddenly rushed forward, pinched Ah Nuan's waist and scratched lightly: "Seeing that you are still laughing at me, I will show you how powerful my sister is."

Ah Yue was tickled by Ah Nuan and couldn't stop laughing, begging for mercy.

"It's your generosity, Sister Ayue, I'll forgive you this time." Ayue let go of A Nuan, turned her head and stretched out her hand to look at Qi Qingxi with a smirk.

Qi Qingxi grabbed Ah Yue's hands that hadn't succeeded, and said with a smile: "I just wanted to praise you and Ah Nuan for becoming more and more disciplined, and you don't like running and jumping when you enter the door. It took less than half a moment to reveal your true colors? If you were My aunt knows, so I should say you..."

"I'm going to get married and still be so unruly. If I'm like this in your husband's house in the future, I won't be rejected or not seen."

Ah Yue learned [-]% of Guo's tone of speech, and finally sighed, "Do I have to marry? I live so comfortably at home. In the past, A Niang didn't stick to me to learn the rules."

Qi Qingxi wanted to comfort Ah Yue a few words, and wanted to tell her that women don't have to marry, women can also have their own achievements and so on.

But after all, the times are different. If Ah Yue really listened to what she said, but was limited by the times and had no way of thinking and could not move forward, it would actually harm Ah Yue.

Qi Qingxi had no choice but to change the topic with other words: "Your affairs are not in a hurry, but you, brother Yunming, will get married in a few months. When the new sister-in-law gets started, you can take care of her more."
