I wish for a long time

Ye Jiu and Qi Shao'an walked towards the mansion slowly when it was almost dusk.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Wan Han standing on the steps, looking out of the mansion.

"Master, you are back."

Seeing someone coming, Wan Han quickly walked down the stone steps and saluted with blessings.

"Miss Wan doesn't need to be so troublesome, what's the matter?" Ye Jiuxu helped her and asked aloud.

Wan Han was stunned for a moment, then nodded again and said: "The madam has something to discuss with the young master and the young madam, but seeing that the two of you haven't come back for a long time, I let the slaves wait here."

Ye Jiu and Qi Shao'an looked at each other with a hint of doubt in their eyes, "Did Mrs. Lin say that she wanted me for something?"

Wan Han stepped aside, "I don't know."

Ye Jiu frowned, and walked inside.

After entering the gate of the mansion, she stopped suddenly, turned her head to Wei Yu and Lu Lin and said, "You two, take your things back to the bamboo garden first, there is no need to follow."

Wei Yu Lu Lin nodded upon hearing this.

Only then did Ye Jiu lead Qi Shao'an and Wan Han to the direction of Ziru Garden.

Ziru Garden is not very far from Bamboo Garden, it is a quiet and elegant place.

"Mrs. Lin, you are looking for me."

After Ye Jiu entered the door, he cupped his hands, and Qi Shao'an also saluted.

Mrs. Lin was baking a charcoal stove at this time, she raised her head when she heard the words, and bent her lips, "Jin'er is here, sit down quickly."

Ye Jiu nodded slightly, and pulled Qi Shaoan to sit opposite her.

However, after a while, Ye Jiu didn't hear Mrs. Lin speak, so he looked at her.

Mrs. Lin tilted her head, her face seemed to be in a daze.

Ye Jiu followed her gaze, and it was a coincidence that the end fell on his and Qi Shao'an's overlapping hands, and there was something intriguing and profound in those eyes.

Qi Shaoan also found out, the embarrassing scene of the previous two days instantly appeared in his mind, and he subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand.

Ye Jiu held her firmly.

Qi Shaoan was stunned, and quickly looked up at her.Ajiu frowned slightly, stared at him deeply, and shook his head slowly.

Qi Shaoan looked at her for a while, gave up pulling away from her palm, and simply lowered his head to avoid her and Mrs. Lin's eyes.

Seeing this, Ye Jiu scrubbed the back of her hands, put on a standard smile, and turned to look at Mrs. Lin.

"Mrs. Lin, why are you looking for me?"

Mrs. Lin blinked her eyes when she heard the sound, as if she had just woken up, she slowly raised her head.

It's just that Ye Jiu keenly caught the breath of scrutiny coming towards him.

She squinted her eyes, leaned her elbows on the table, but smiled silently.

Mrs. Lin's eyes only stopped for a few seconds, then she looked away, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal."

"The ceremony of returning to the clan will be prepared in two days. I just want to inform you in advance."

Mrs. Lin stroked her cuffs, and sighed: "The Lin family is weak. Your father has only two sons in his life, and both of them have passed away. You, Uncle Bai, will take charge of this matter."

Ye Jiu raised his eyebrows, feeling in his heart that things were not as simple as she said.

Sure enough, Mrs. Lin took a gentle look at the two of them, and said, "Jin'er, after returning to the clan, I will write to the emperor to let you become a nobleman. You must be prepared."

Ye Jiu was slightly puzzled, "Ready?"

Mrs. Lin stood up and walked towards the window with them behind her back, "After taking over the title, you will be the pillar of the Marquis Mansion, and your every move, every word and deed is related to the safety of everyone in the Marquis Mansion."

Ye Jiu frowned when she heard the words, she suddenly remembered what Qi Shao'an had told her in Taoxi Town a few days ago: be careful in everything, and be cautious in words and deeds.

Thinking of this, Ye Jiu looked at the people beside him, only to see Qi Shaoan's brows were slightly arched, and there was no lack of worry in his eyes.

She tightened her clasped hands and returned a reassuring smile.

"so what?"

Mrs. Lin laughed lightly when she heard this, "Don't be nervous, Jin'er, everyone in my Lin family is talented, and these small things will surely not trouble you."

The corner of Ye Jiu's mouth twitched, she had an intuition that the solemn and steady woman in front of her was about to set her up.

"However, you still have to learn some of the world's sophistication and etiquette."

Ye Jiu rolled his eyes when he heard the words, "Look, I'm waiting here."

Madam Lin turned around, folded her hands on her abdomen, and walked slowly with light feet, saying, "From tomorrow on, Jin'er, you will learn the most basic etiquette from Uncle Bai."

Ye Jiu shrugged, and in line with the principle of not being overwhelmed by many arts, he agreed, "Okay."

Mrs. Lin smiled softly, and then turned her eyes to Qi Shao'an, "Miss Qi, how about you just learn from Nanny Peng and Nanny Tian?"

Ye Jiu frowned when he heard this, "It's not enough for me to learn, why does An An want to learn?"

Qi Shaoan quickly patted her forearm comfortingly, "Husband, don't worry."

Mrs. Lin was obviously taken aback by the phrase "husband", she took a deep breath and calmed down, "Jin'er's words are wrong, if you are the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, but you don't know how to raise the house and manage the house, How can I help you?"

Mrs. Lin didn't give her a chance to speak, and continued: "Besides, the affairs of the court are not only conspired by you husbands, but sometimes those powerful family members play an irreplaceable role."

Ye Jiu heard a word stuck in her throat, she frowned and turned her head slightly.

Qi Shao'an originally came from a family of officials, how could she not know these things?It's just that Mrs. Lin now completely regards her as a girl from a small family, and she can't explain it herself.

Ye Jiu thought for a while and said, "I don't want An An to be so..."

"Madam Lin, don't worry, Qi Anding will learn etiquette well."

Ye Jiu was startled when he heard the words, and stared at Qi Shao'an with wide eyes.

Qi Shao'an knew that she would have such an expression, and quickly shook her head, her eyes signaled her not to say any more.

Mrs. Lin is Jin'er's biological mother, so she knows Ajiu's identity well, but until now she has never said a word about their relationship, as if... acquiesced.

Qi Shao'an felt a tinge of comfort in his heart, since Mrs. Lin has already made such a regress, then he is just learning the etiquette, so what's the point.

Ye Jiu gasped for breath twice, glared fiercely at Qi Shao'an, and wrinkled his nose in disbelief.

Seeing this, Qi Shaoan chuckled lightly, then came to her senses again, and quickly raised her hand to cover it up.

Seeing Mrs. Lin turning her head, Ye Jiu quickly took over the conversation, "Yes, yes, but An An is not in good health, so she can't be too tired. I hope the two nuns can think about it."

Mrs. Lin was stunned for a moment, then the corners of her mouth twitched, "That's natural."

……

Noon the next day.

"Uncle Bai, I can't take it anymore!!"

Ye Jiu collapsed on the stone table, his whole body was like a toad with a white belly turned over, only two legs were still trembling.

Bai Jian sat in the sun with his arms folded, rolled up the scroll in his hand, and said with a smile, "Where is this? It's still far from you knowing the capital."

"Meow!"

Ye Jiu moved her ears when she heard the words, she tilted her head, and towards the cozy Heituanzi not far away, she cursed feebly, "You mudball, you don't have any meat today!"

Mo Wan stopped licking his paws, raised his head blankly, and blinked his innocent yellow eyes at Ye Jiu.

Seeing this, Baijian shook his head helplessly, stood up, and tapped her thigh with the scroll, "You have seen the Ninth Grade Civil Officer, now let's look at the military officer."

Ye Jiu propped himself up with both hands, slumped his back and mourned, "Uncle Bai, what do you think the imperial court divides up so many styles? Official uniforms are fine, but cars are also divided!"

Ye Jiu jumped down from the table, "You said a carriage, it was whizzing, how could I have time to see the material of the roof and the color of the fabric for the curtains, it's not a waste of time."

Hearing the words, Bai Jian was both angry and funny, raised his hand and took the scroll and knocked her on the head: "Then the carriage didn't stop? Don't the people in the carriage come down?"

Ye Jiu choked, "That's right."

Bai Jian continued: "If you memorize these things by heart, when you go to the court to discuss affairs in the future and meet so many colleagues, it will be clear at a glance who is high and who is low? You won't make any jokes .”

"Besides, if you run into an adult or a relative's carriage on the street, you'd better come up with a countermeasure quickly."

Bai Jian talked more and more vigorously, he turned his head, and nodded Ye Jiu's lapel again, "Let's just talk about the clothes you are wearing, how is it different from before?"

Ye Jiu looked down, "Yes, it's getting harder to wear."

A row of crows flew over Baijian's head.

He took the scroll and slapped her bitterly, "It's because the uniform has changed."

"A uniform?" Ye Jiu stretched his collar, "It seems that the collar is wrong."

Baijian nodded, "You used to wear cross-collar gowns and short jackets, but now you are wearing round-necked gowns, which can only be worn by people who have an official position or someone in their family who is an official."

Ye Jiu's mind flashed when he heard the words, "I remember that Du Zhihang was wearing a crew neck."

Bai Jian stroked his beard, "Jin'er is finally enlightened."

"Teaching you these is just to let you go in and out of the court one day, don't be tainted with right and wrong, the biggest thing is to protect yourself and the Marquis Mansion."

Ye Jiu lowered his head and took a deep breath, "Then let's continue with the military officer."

Baijian nodded, and a smile with a little appreciation appeared on his lips.

Until it was dark, Qi Shaoan finally pushed open the courtyard door and appeared in front of everyone.

"Shao'er!"

When Ye Jiu saw the person coming, his eyes that had been dim for a long time lit up instantly, and Bai Jian looked at him, and rolled his eyes helplessly.

"How about Shao'er, did Mrs. Lin make things difficult for you?"

Qi Shao'an watched Ye Jiu hurriedly scrutinize himself, and quickly stretched out his hand to hold her, "Everything is fine, don't worry."

Ye Jiu asked again uncertainly: "Then what have you learned? It took so long at once."

Qi Shao'an pursed her lips and thought: "It's just that it takes some time to learn the melody of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and tea ceremony."

Ye Jiu raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "Qinqi, calligraphy and painting? Do you still need to learn?"

Qi Shaoan smiled casually, "You have to put on a show."

Ye Jiu suddenly laughed, and she hurriedly pushed Qi Shaoan into the house, rubbing her shoulders while walking, "Playing with them for a day is exhausting enough, let's go and have a rest."

Before entering the door, she shook her hand towards Bai Jian in the yard: "Uncle Bai, go back and wash up early, come back tomorrow!"

Bai Jian stood at the door of the house, raised his hand halfway, "Hey, Jin'er..."

Ye Jiu raised a big smile: "Don't worry about returning to the Zongli, I'm sure I won't delay it, but don't forget to buy that restaurant for me, thank you, Uncle Bai!"

After hearing this passage, Bai Jian felt a sudden pain in his heart, he gritted his teeth, "You bastard, you are as scheming as your father!"
