Chapter 13 Birthday Gifts
Qin Shi didn't have much restraint on his disciples, and even Song Ling calculated that the time he could see him was decreasing every year.
Xie Qiong played the role of most of the master for her.
As early as when she was eight years old, during the poetry and book homework exam, she learned that Xie Qiong's dome was the dome of the sky, and it had nothing to do with the messy association of poverty she said, and he was born to be as bright and beautiful as the sky.
In the days when the master was away, she was very free, and she could go back to see if she wanted to go home, but Master Song, who loved his daughter, found that at first, the eldest baby often ran home, and then the number of times she lived at home every year became less, and then she even went back to the college after a meal.
Song Lingyi didn't notice anything herself, she had something to do every day, Xie Qiong often picked interesting little spells to teach her, and when she was bored, he would accompany her out of Penglai City to shop, but after living in the bamboo house for a long time, she became more and more accustomed to it, and she couldn't sleep when she returned to the house, there was no bamboo fragrance that always lingered on the tip of her nose, and there was no one who urged her to practice before going to bed.
On the tenth day of the first month of another year, the fourteenth birthday of the Song sisters came, and this year the master was not in the academy, Song Lingyi actually had some doubts about whether he was raising his family outside.
This year, half of the official and business ladies in Penglai City were invited to the Song Mansion as guests, and Song Lingyi wore a good-looking blue skirt, which stood out among a group of ladies wearing thick jackets and holding hand stoves.
At this time, she was looking at a congratulatory poem given by Hua Chenyue's cousin with a smile, I don't know if the jewelry is not good, or the rouge gouache is not fragrant, recently the daughters of the upper class of Penglai City have also played this sour set.
Seeing that she couldn't hold back a word of thanks for a long time, Hua Chenyue hurriedly came out to play a round: "Good poetry, good poetry! By the way, the troupe I ordered yesterday is here? I haven't listened to music for a long time, why don't you start singing it quickly?"
Song Lingshuang hurriedly answered the call and asked his subordinates to arrange it, and led the ladies over.
When everyone started listening to the music with melon and fruit snacks, Song Lingyi and the three of them sat together and bit their ears again: "Chenyue, your cousin came to us today to make a show?"
Hua Chenyue swallowed a piece of jujube cake, and then replied unhurriedly: "You also know that she has been like this since she was a child, she has no eyesight, although she is stupid, but her heart is not bad." Recently, the city didn't comment on the ten beauties of Penglai, she sent poems whenever she met people, forgive me!"
"Wasn't it Penglai Simei in previous years?"
This Song Lingshuang knows: "Sister, the list is a teahouse in our family, this year I let the on-site voting, real-time update, by the way, the turnover has quadrupled in the past month." ”
Song Lingyi raised his eyebrows: "Then it's your handiwork to invite so many people to the house today?"
"Well, this is a good way to promote it, and what we are wearing today, our store should be able to sell short immediately. ”
"You can have two pairs! You have the appearance of a profiteer like your father, and your sister's silk and rouge gouache for the rest of her life depend on you!" Song Ling looked at his sister with burning eyes, and felt that there was a successor to the Song family.
Hua Chenyue looked at it and sighed: "Look at you! Both of them are starting to have a chance, and you are still doing a little follower! Anyway, what birthday gift did Gongzi Xie give you this year?"
Xie Qiong rushed back to Los Angeles years ago, and since the second year of acquaintance, every year there will be his congratulatory gifts delivered to the house, all of which are strange and interesting things, Song Lingyi likes them very much, and he has to show them off every time.
"I haven't arrived yet, how can I still listen to music here when I get to Sister A. ”
As he was talking, a small servant came over to spread the word: "Miss, Mr. Xie ......"
"Where's the congratulatory gift?, why don't you bring it in?" Song Ling didn't wait for him to finish, and it was already blowing out like a gust of wind.
Seeing her running out, the scene suddenly quieted down, and the troupe stopped, Song Lingshuang asked, "But Gongzi Xie's congratulatory gift has arrived?"
The little girl was a little cramped under everyone's gaze, rubbed her hands and said, "Second Miss, it's Gongzi Xie who is here and is talking to the master in the hall." ”
Everyone has more or less heard of Xie Qiong, a man who is called stunning by the eldest lady of the Song family, and some people have even chewed the root of their tongues, saying that the Song family has been chasing this person all year round. But there are very few people who have really seen him, Xie Qiong has always lived in a simple place, and occasionally accompanied Song Ling out of the academy, and there are not many people he can meet, even Hua Chenyue has only seen a silhouette from a distance at the gate of the academy.
Hearing that Xie Qiong was here, Hua Chenyue was the most energetic: "Let's go and take a look, sisters, let's go over and have a look, and see what this Xie Gongzi looks like!"
Song Ling, who rushed out first, thought that the congratulatory gift was still in the concierge, but when he passed by the lobby, he suddenly heard his father's embarrassing laughter.
She decided to turn around and take a look first, and at this glance, she saw Xie Qiong smiling politely.
The young man has risen a lot, his hair is tied up, he is dressed in white clothes and lined with a fairy like a fairy, he is sitting at the bottom of the head with a pair of peach blossom eyes and looking at the embarrassed smile of the old man, the corners of his mouth are politely hooked, Song Ling feels that his own hall is a little brighter today.
She was very surprised, but her happy mood came faster, and she ran to them: "Little brother, why are you here? Daddy, what are you talking about?"
Both of them have grown up slowly, and the childlike title of little brother has long been changed, Song Ling thought that they were the apprentices of the little uncle, so her senior brother was called little brother, which was appropriate, so she kept calling it like this.
Seeing his beloved daughter coming, Master Song was relieved, as if the embarrassing scene of his father-in-law and son-in-law had finally ended: "Good girl, Gongzi Xie came to congratulate you on your birthday, you treat you well, Daddy made an appointment with the city lord to drink today, so as not to disturb you young people to play together." After speaking, he smiled comfortingly at Xie Qiong, asked him to stay for a while and not be restrained, and then strode out of the house while rubbing his stiff face that had just maintained a 45-degree smile.
Song Lingyi felt funny, and responded loudly: "I know Daddy, you drink less today." ”
Turning her head, she sat down on the chair beside Xie Qiong again: "Little Senior Brother, did you come directly from Los Angeles?"
"Hmm," Xie Qiong nodded.
"Then you must have worked hard today, but I have to bring my birthday gift, otherwise I can't go. ”
Xie Qiong chuckled, took out a small gift box and handed it over, Song Lingyi took it and opened it, it was a small and exquisite milky white fan pendant, which felt warm to the touch, and it was definitely suitable with her peach blossom fan.
"You inject spiritual power and try. ”
Song Lingyi injected spiritual power according to his words, and it turned out to be a storage space like a treasure bag, and he couldn't help but be very surprised: "Wonderful, I just want a treasure bag, and I'm going to ask the master for one!
