[R18] (Quickly wear it) Baby, you are with the wrong person – Chapter 596 of “(Quickly Wear) Baby You Are with the Wrong Person” [English]

☆、Huatangchun 16

Time passed quickly, and in the letters exchanged between Yao Ji and Cao Mo, it was already autumn in Huaijing.At this time of year, the ginkgo trees at Yun’an Temple are the most beautiful.Yao Ji accompanied Mrs. He to the temple to offer incense, and saw the mountains and plains covered with gold, and the brilliance that entered her eyes was even brighter than the sun.

The incense in Yun’an Temple is already very prosperous, and now there is an endless stream of people coming and going.Fortunately, there is a special place in the temple for the female relatives to rest and enjoy the scenery. It is the place where she met Cao Mo.A high red wall separates the temple from the mountain behind the temple.Because there are wild beasts in the back mountain, although the scenery is beautiful, few people set foot there except for those young people in the capital who like to hunt.

The mother and daughter visited for a while and stood under a ginkgo tree to rest and talk.The shade of the trees was as dense as clouds, with only a few golden awns falling from the gaps. The tall tree crowns extended all the way to the outside of the wall. While talking, Yao Ji heard the treetops shaking a few times and frowned: “Mom, did you hear anything?” “…What?” Mrs. He was startled and hurriedly motioned to the maids and women who were following her to be quiet.

In the silence, the only sounds that could be heard were the chirping of the wind blowing through the treetops, and the nervous breathing of everyone.”My maid… I didn’t hear anything.” After a moment, Xiangxue said cautiously.Yao Ji paused: “I must be the servant.” However, Mrs. He didn’t want to stay here any longer, so she took her daughter and left in a hurry.After everyone had left, someone jumped down from the tree and landed on the other side of the high wall.

“Master,” several young men holding horses hurriedly came up to greet them, “Did something happen just now?”

“Nothing, just…” He was almost discovered.

As soon as the man in the tree spoke, if Yao Ji was here, he would have been able to tell immediately that it was Su Zhun who helped her get out of the siege.It turned out that Su Zhun took his family out for a hunting trip in the city today. When he galloped to the back mountain outside Yun’an Temple, he was looking for a wild deer that slipped away from the arrow. Seeing the tall trees in the temple, he thought of climbing up to get a wider view.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he grabbed the treetop through the wall, he noticed several girls standing under the tree.Su Zhun was from a wealthy family, and he was very observant of etiquette. He was about to jump down, but Yao Ji discovered him.He had no choice but to hold on to the treetops without daring to move. He even wiped the chicken’s neck and winked at the boys to tell them to be quiet.

I could only hear the ladies talking about each other, and their voice was like a clear spring, as if they had heard it somewhere.He was moved in his heart, and when everyone was leaving, he poked his head over, and saw only a smokey willow-colored fairy skirt with floral patterns. The breeze blew up a corner of the skirt, as if a lotus had just bloomed, and the exposed stamens were the tips of embroidered shoes under the skirt.

Su Zhun became a little absent-minded and reached out to touch his waist. He didn’t know if it was a coincidence that he was wearing the green fan pendant today.”Hai Sheng,” after hesitating, Su Zhun motioned for the most trusted servant to come closer and said in a low voice, “Go and ask the masters at Yun’an Temple. Among the ladies who came to the temple today, any of the rich girls… are wearing a green skirt.” Yao Ji didn’t know that she and Su Zhun had this intersection. She stayed with Mrs. He at Yun’an Temple for a while and then boarded the car and returned to the house.It was almost dusk, and the lamps and candles were already lit in Cao’s mansion.

Yao Ji went back to her room to change her clothes, and then went to check on Xiaohan’s homework.Seeing some familiar books on the table, she asked, “Is this from your father’s study?” Cao Mo’s inner study did not prohibit Yao Ji from entering and leaving. Although Youhan was a boudoir girl, Yao Ji did not want to raise a good little girl into a clay puppet, so she asked her to go to the inner study to get some miscellaneous books to read when she was free.

Either travel notes or poems, reading them can also broaden your horizons.Seeing Youhan nodding, she picked up the book and flipped through it casually. A piece of paper fell lightly between the pages.

“What is this…” Xiangxue leaned over and picked up the paper and handed it to Yao Ji, “Madam, it seems to be a letter.”

“Letter?” Yao Ji took the paper and looked at it. It was indeed a letter, but the title was not the word “Brother Shou” she had seen in Cao Mo’s study, but “Brother Mo”.

A trace of doubt arose in her heart. Cao Mo’s name change happened in recent years. From his daily correspondence, it can be seen that the old man who has known him for many years is still accustomed to his original name.But this title is so intimate, why is it called “Mo” instead of “Shou”?

Looking further down, the content of the letter is unclear.

It turned out that the letter had been wetted with water, the ink marks were all mixed together, and the paper was uneven after drying.Yao Ji looked carefully and could only recognize a few scattered words.The first sentence is “I feel so relieved to see old friends again”, and a few lines later, it says “The war in the northwest is very difficult now” and the signature is four characters, “Shihu layman” – apart from this, the rest is indistinguishable.

She couldn’t help but chew the nickname on the tip of her tongue several times: “…Shihu layman.”

Who is this person?

He mentioned the Northwest War and called Cao Mo an old friend. On paper, he had a standard Guange style. He must be a person with a certain cultural quality.

She thought about it and had no clue, so she put the letter away: “I think the master accidentally put it in it, so just put the book and the letter back.”

This matter was quickly forgotten by Yao Ji, and now she was living a comfortable life – the business of several shops was getting more and more prosperous, someone was not at home, and the concubines were also at peace.She plays the piano and reads books every day, occasionally takes her baby Han out to play, and occasionally returns to her parents’ home or attends a banquet when invited. It couldn’t be easier.

On this day, Mrs. Shouyang Hou celebrated her birthday and left a message for Yao Ji.

This Mrs. Hou is Mrs. He’s handkerchief. When Yao Ji was still in the boudoir, she was close to the daughter of her family. Now that she is married, she has not broken off her contacts.There was a lot of drinking and drinking at the banquet. Needless to say, after the banquet, a group of women gathered together to listen to the opera and gossip. It was very pleasant.

I don’t know who mentioned Su Zhun, the Dingyuan general who is currently in the limelight: “It is really a pity for General Su. The Su family is eyeing him, and he has already fallen in love with the daughter of the Li Hanlin family. Who knows that the Tatars have changed again, and he has ordered to go north to have a good marriage. No, it has been delayed again.”

“Li Hanlin’s family?” Mrs. Shouyang Hou, who was sitting at the top, asked, “How did I hear that Mrs. Su intends to marry her natal niece?”

“Madam, I don’t know. I heard that General Xiao Su asked for this himself.” The woman who spoke was the wife of a bookkeeper. When she saw Madam Hou’s interest, she immediately poured out all the information she knew.

“There is a mother-in-law in my family who is related to the second manager of the Su Mansion. According to her, it seems that General Su went to Yun’an Temple, and for some reason he came home and begged Mrs. Su to propose marriage to Li Hanlin’s house. Mrs. Su was unwilling, but who could stop her as a mother? Unfortunately, the marriage was not finalized, and the court issued an edict.”

For a moment, everyone sighed. Although the country was peaceful and the people were safe during the Daxuan Dynasty, the border was always uneasy. There had been wars since the time of the late emperor. There was once a big battle that killed ten miles of land at the border. If it hadn’t been for the Wei army at that time, the border would have been broken.

When Jin Shang ascended the throne, two generals, Su Zhun and Su Wencheng, were born. Su Wencheng, the father of Su Zhun, was also a brave general. The father and his son just answered the saying that a tiger father has no dog son.

Yao Ji sat aside, originally just listening to gossip, but when everyone talked about General Su, her heart suddenly moved.Everyone in Beijing knew that Su Wencheng was a Jinshi, and his ability to lead troops and fight was only discovered later. When he was an official in Beijing, he had a nickname, Shihu Jushi.
