Chapter 250 Braised Duck
A drop of water should be repaid with a spring.
In order to repay Shangguan Mu's brotherly love, Ji Changqing took the initiative to propose: "Do you need me to find the Queen Mother and grant you a marriage?"
Shangguan Mu: “…”
His shoulders slumped immediately.
"There's no partner, so why grant marriage?"
Ji Changqing: “???”
"What have you been busy with for the past six months?"
Shangguan Mu: "Raising horses. During the time you were in Hezhou providing disaster relief, the horses on the ranch were struck by plague, and nearly 40% died. I was completely focused on plague prevention and horse breeding, spending most of my time at the ranch and having no time for anything else."
When the capital was in chaos, he wanted to show off, but unfortunately Pei Minru had returned to the Pei family and never left the main gate or the secondary gate, so he couldn't even see her.
Ji Changqing patted his shoulder and said, "Go to the Yue Lao Temple to pay your respects when you have time."
Shangguan Mu frowned: "Did you pray for your marriage from Yue Lao?"
Ji Changqing: "It's my fault. But you obviously don't have my ability, so it's better to ask Yue Lao for help."
Shangguan Mu: (▼DRAN▼#)
This guy is the real Ji Changqing, who will die if he doesn't hurt him!
Human joys and sorrows are not shared. After Ji Changqing changed his name, the first thing he did was to urge his mother to issue the marriage proposal.
Qi said, "Since you want to go through the three letters and six ceremonies, the previous ghost marriage is no longer valid. Qingsui will probably have to return to the clan family to live for a while."
Ji Changqing: “?!”
"Can't we stay at the Zong family for three days before the wedding?"
Qi asked him in return, "What's the difference between staying for three days and three months? You don't run into each other every day in the mansion now."
Ji Changqing: “…”
Why is there no difference?
If Qingsui lived in the mansion, he could see her whenever he wanted. But if she lived in the Zong family, he didn't know how many people he would have to go through to see her.
"Mother," he said with a quiet look in his eyes, "Qingsui is not at home, aren't you lonely?"
Qi: "I've endured loneliness for so many years, I've gotten used to it."
Ji Changqing: “…”
"Why don't you ask Qingsui for his opinion?"
Qi said hello.
He then ordered someone to invite Feng Qingsui over.
After Feng Qingsui heard the whole story, he pondered for a moment and said, "I will go back to the Zong family first. Mother, you can make the decision later."
Feelings are developed through interaction. She and the Zong family had only met a few times and didn't know each other's personalities very well. It would be good for her to live in the Zong family for a while and get familiar with them.
Ji Changqing: “!”
Doesn't this person respond so straightforwardly? Doesn't he have any attachment to the Ji Mansion at all?
"If you go to the Zong family, you won't be able to taste my cooking." He said quietly, "What if you can't get used to the food there..."
Feng Qingsui smiled slightly: "If I don't like the food, I'll come back and ask the Second Master to cook for me."
Ji Changqing: “…”
Well, at least she still cares about his cooking skills.
After Feng Qingsui and the Zong family reached an agreement, they packed their bags and prepared to move to the Zong Mansion after the Laba Festival.
She must bring Mobao and Curly Hair with her.
Sanhuang... Seeing that she looked like she was going on a long journey, Sanhuang immediately remembered that he was left behind last time, so he flew to her shoulder and held her shoulders tightly.
"Gah!"
——Don’t even think about leaving me behind.
Feng Qingsui had no choice but to take it with him.
As for the group of carrier pigeons that Qi Yu gave her and that were raised in the yard next door, she kept them because she was worried that the pigeons would be confused if they moved to a new place and would lose track of their destination in the future.
Ji Changqing, who was abandoned without hesitation by his beloved pet and can only live with the carrier pigeon left by a nasty kid: (; 一_一)
Madam Zong had been looking forward to spending more time with her granddaughter since early morning, and she wished that her granddaughter could live with her.
Feng Qingsui suddenly thought of something and politely declined, "I have a dog and a bird, and I'm afraid I'll disturb your rest. You should just live somewhere by yourself."
Madam Zong is old and her sleep is not very good. She wakes up once every one or two hours. If her sleep is interrupted in the middle, it is difficult for her to continue sleeping.
Hearing this, he had no choice but to say, "Then you can live in Meixiangyuan next door to me. That courtyard is where your great-aunt lived before she got married. It has a beautiful view."
Feng Qingsui nodded: "Okay."
She moved in with Wuhua, two dogs and a falcon.
Madam Zong also assigned her a few maids and servants, saying, "They are all from the Zong family. I have carefully selected them. Cailan is good at needlework, Chenxiang can do accounting, Lingxi is good at makeup, and Miaozhu can make tea, perfume, and arrange flowers... If you are used to them, bring them to the Ji Mansion."
Feng Qingsui immediately understood that this was a companion room prepared for her.
She said gratefully, "Thank you, Grandma."
"We're all family, why are you thanking me?" Madam Zong laughed. "You're the eldest daughter of the Zong family, so don't be polite to your grandmother."
Feng Qingsui nodded heavily: "Okay."
There happened to be a wintersweet planted in Meixiang Garden, so Feng Qingsui didn't have to buy any special flowers to enjoy.
All the aunts and cousins in the Zong family are lively and active people. Today they asked her to go ice skating, tomorrow they took her to enjoy the snow, and the day after tomorrow they accompanied her to climb the mountain.
She was so overwhelmed that she completely forgot about someone.
Poor Ji Changqing, he waited in the mansion for one, two, and three days, but no one came back to ask him for special treatment.
Upon asking around, he discovered that she was having a blast playing with her cousins, falling asleep every day without even mentioning him.
I was so angry that I climbed the wall all night.
When he sneaked into Meixiangyuan, Feng Qingsui had just finished washing up and was sitting at the table writing notes.
Suddenly, the aroma of braised meat wafted to my nose.
She raised her head and asked Wuhua, "Did you just go out and buy braised duck?"
Wuhua sniffed and shook her head, "No."
"Could it be that it floated from my grandmother's yard?"
Feng Qingsui muttered to himself.
I'm afraid it's hard for the old lady to digest meat at night...
Just as I was thinking about whether I should prescribe a digestion prescription for my grandmother tomorrow, I heard a "ding" sound in my ears.
It felt like a stone had hit the window.
She turned her head and met a pair of dark eyes.
"Second Master?"
She said in surprise.
"Why are you here?"
He didn't take the usual route, and it was obvious that he had climbed over the wall to get in.
Ji Changqing didn't want to disturb the maids in the Zongfu, so he jumped into the house, put the food box on the table, and said casually: "I braised some duck, but I can't finish it, so I'll give you some for a midnight snack."
Feng Qingsui smiled happily: "It's been a long time since I last tasted Second Master's cooking. I've been missing it these past few days."
Then open the lunch box.
Duck necks, duck wings, duck feet, duck tongues...all in one layer, full and filling.
The smile on her face grew even wider.
"Have you eaten it, Master?"
"have eaten."
Feng Qingsui then gave half to Wuhua, and then asked Ji Changqing to sit down. While eating, he asked about Qi and everyone in the Ji family.
Ji Changqing answered all the questions one by one and looked at her hesitantly.
"Second Master, do you have something to say?"
She asked, raising an eyebrow.
Ji Changqing: “…No.”
I even asked about the carrier pigeons left by Shunzi and that annoying guy, but I didn’t ask him, ╮(╯_╰)╭.
After Feng Qingsui finished eating the duck, he washed his hands, took out two cans of medicinal tea and handed them to him.
"I heard from Yan Chi that the Second Master has been busy until very late these days, so I prepared some heat-reducing tea for him. It would be better for him to rest early in the future."
Ji Changqing: Huh?
