ps: I want to hear more of your voices, and I want to receive more of your opinions, search for the WeChat public account "qdread" now and pay attention to it, and give more support to "Master Cui Arrives"! Cui Guo's poisonous tongue is completely ineffective on Cui Ning, in order to find the magic knife, she can even give up her life, let alone listen to a few words that are not listening.

Cui Kuang originally wanted to invite Ling Ce, so he agreed with enough shelves.

The three of them quickly replied and agreed to go to the appointment.

Cui Jing listened to Cui Ning say that the matter was done, and he was still a little surprised, Wei Qian is the new champion, he must have been very busy recently, he is willing to take time out of his busy schedule to go to such a small banquet?

This time it's a banquet, but it's a private party. However, after all, it was the first gathering after coming to Chang'an, and the Ling family prepared very carefully, low-key and grand.

The Cui family doesn't need to scold them, if it's ordinary, just don't be too rude, and the reason why the Ling family did this is mainly for Cui Qian.

Cui Kuang is reluctant to play with his peers, it is not easy for children like him to make intimate friends, even in the past, the teenagers just started to play with him as a little tail, it was his unremitting efforts to make the circle of teenagers slowly accept him, and now he must be at a loss when he first arrives in Chang'an, if there are three of them, the Ling family can also rest assured.

On the day of the banquet, Ling spread his hand and handed over all the qiΔ“ to Cui Kuang to deal with by himself.

This was the first time Cui Kuang had hosted a banquet for a friend in his own name, and he was very excited. The face is even stricter, and there is a kind of posture like facing a great enemy.

In fact, it is difficult for truly knowledgeable people to regard Cui Kuang as a child who doesn't know what to do. Although he lacks life experience, he is well-read and quick-witted, and even if he cites scriptures, he knows most of them, even if there are some things he doesn't understand, just a little bit. He quickly understood. Ling Ce, Fu Yuan, and Wei Qian didn't feel any obstacle in chatting with him.

Cui Kuang also found that the three of them didn't treat themselves as children, and quickly relaxed. Chat with them naturally.

A few people first went to visit the elders, and then gathered in the waterfront pavilion to drink tea and rest.

After chatting for a while, the topic naturally turned to Sister Cui Ning.

Ling Ce took out a gift slip from his sleeve and handed it to Cui Kuang, "This is all the treasure knives I collect. My cousin will help me transfer it to my second cousin. ”

As soon as the words "second cousin" came out, everyone else sneered.

Cui Ning said with a stern face, "I am the second cousin", and the image is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"She's been thinking about this all day. Cui Kuang didn't say anything polite to him, and directly put the list into his arms, "In recent days, I have coaxed the eldest sister to write to you to ask for it, and if you don't send it again, the eldest sister will be sad." ”

"She didn't hold a grudge against me, did she?" Divorce is a stain that cannot be erased for a woman's life, and Ling Ce felt quite sorry for Cui Ning in his heart, so he gave up his beloved sword, hoping to make up for it.

"Hold a grudge?" Cui sighed with a sip of tea. "I think she will only remember to hold a grudge when no one wants it after she gets it. ”

"My cousin has a good heart. Ling Ce said. Even when there was a marriage contract, he never said that Cui Ning had a bad temperament, but he just thought that she couldn't afford the responsibility of a clan wife.

Cui said. "Fools are blessed. ”

Cui Ning, who was hiding behind the rockery, heard this and snorted angrily.

Cui Guan has the ability to make people happy one moment, and the next moment he wants to beat him.

When she heard that Ling Ce handed over the treasure knife, Cui Kuang didn't refrain at all, so she secretly praised it in her heart, but she didn't say a word or two before she started to hurt her again.

"Let's go. Cui Jing felt that he was really crazy, and he actually followed her to mess around. However, when I saw Ling Ce from afar, I found that he was even better looking than before. I felt that this trip was worthwhile.

"Mrs. Cui is almost sixteen, right? Congratulations on the long letter, I finally don't have to work hard for five or six years. Fu Yuan said with a smile.

Cui Ning turned around to leave, and found that Cui Jing was still standing in a daze, and when she turned her head, she was blushing, and she could still see the flush on her neck.

Ling Ce only smiled and said nothing, he was also very satisfied with Cui Jing in his heart, but he couldn't express his happiness too much, after all, his satisfaction was based on the dissolution of the marriage contract of another girl.

Cui Shi secretly revealed to Ling Shi as early as two years ago that he wanted to change people, when the family asked Ling Ce's evaluation of Cui Ning, he said that she was a very good girl, but she was lively and innocent, and she was not suitable for being a clan wife. In addition, the Ling family was reluctant to let Ling Ce wait until twenty-five or six to get married, and when the Cui family revealed their intentions, they did not object.

Three years ago, Cui Ning just made a disgraceful incident, if she was suddenly divorced again, what would others think of her? Therefore, the Cui family was unwilling to dissolve the marriage contract immediately. And the Ling family also secretly inquired about Cui Jing, but Cui Jing has always been low-key, and they only heard that she was a good girl, after all, she was not very old, and she couldn't see if it was suitable, so the Xie family also planned to take a look.

So the marriage contract was dissolved a year ago with the acquiescence of both parties, but the two decided to postpone it for two years.

Now that Ling Ce is about to be twenty years old, and Cui Ning is only eleven or twelve years old, the two families dissolved the marriage contract because they were not thoughtful enough, and the age difference between the two was too big, and then immediately decided on Cui Jing.

Because Cui Ning has not revealed any news in the past three years, and outsiders don't know what kind of girl she is, although there are all kinds of speculations, but I have to admit that Ling Ce is indeed not small, and it is really inappropriate to wait for Cui Ning to reach the age when she is suitable for marriage and childbirth.

"You two are still older than me, and you haven't seen each other in the family?" Ling Ce turned the conversation to Wei Qian.

Fu Yuan is the grandson of the left servant, his father is a military general, he died on the battlefield when he was young, and his mother died in childbirth when he gave birth to a posthumous child, he was raised by his grandfather, and his marriage was also handled by his grandfather.

The Fu family's descendants are left with Fu Yuan's lone seedling, and they are so good, Fu Xiang simply feels that the women in the world are not worthy of their own grandchildren, and they have not felt that it is good to pick and choose for many years, plus Fu Yuan has never liked anyone, so it has been delayed until now.

"The old man in my family is sulking, and he just said that Cui Jiajing is a good lady half a year ago. As a result, she became a friend's wife. Fu Yuan leaned lazily on the pavilion railing, holding a failed peach blossom in his hand and pinning it to his ear, "How many peach blossoms can be brought in this way?"

Cui pointed out cruelly. "That's rotten peach blossoms. ”

Cui Ning probed and looked at Fu Yuan, who was laughing with flowers. His green shirt was sparse and sparse, and the petals of the flowers fell on his shoulders with his movements, and only branches and leaves remained on his ears. She never knew that men looked so good when they wore flowers.

"You still don't think you have enough rotten peach blossoms?" Ling Ce smiled and took off the branches and leaves, looking at Wei Qian. "What about you, my uncle won't have a crush on my fiancΓ©e, right?"

Wei Qian seemed to exude an aura of abstinence all over his body, which was incompatible with this topic. "I'm not in a hurry at home. ”

He has four brothers above him, a lot of children in the family, and he has no pressure to pass on the lineage, so he is relatively freer.

"You're not in a hurry?" Ling Ce joked. "I'm in a hurry anyway. ”

Wei Qian said, "Why waste your energy on the bed at a young age. ”

"Brother Changyuan is right. Cui said.

The three of them were silent for a moment, feeling that the joke was too much, and they actually forgot that there was a ten-year-old Cui situation here.

On the side of the rockery, Cui Jing's face was already red. I just wanted to stay just to listen to Ling Ce's evaluation of her, who knew that they would suddenly talk about such an explicit topic!

"Wei Changyuan Langjun is very promising. Cui Ning nodded.

Cui Jingzheng was empty-hearted, and when he heard her voice, he hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth and dragged her away.

up to the inner court. Cui Jingcai let go of her and sat on the stone bench to rest.

"I thought they would get together and recite poetry. Cui Jing felt that with Cui Ning, the etiquette rules were all broken. I still can't believe that I overheard Lang Jun talking about that kind of topic, "What did you just say?"

"I said that Wei Changyuan Langjun is very promising. Cui Ning said.

Cui Jing was puzzled, "How do you say this?"

Her teacher was not opposed to the dual cultivation of yin and yang, but she advocated solitary ascetic practice, believing that the practice obtained in this way was not easily influenced by external objects. Cui Ning naturally couldn't explain this to her, and squeaked for a long time. "I think he has a future." ”

Cui Jing thought she was shy. He didn't ask again.

After lunch.

Cui Ning inquired about the singing and dancing over there, so he called Cui Jing to go to Wei Qian and them to play, Cui Jing remembered what he heard in the morning and couldn't face it calmly, so he excused himself and nested in the house to calm down.

Cui Ning went by herself.

They were playing chess in the courtyard in front of the study, and when Cui Guo saw Cui Ning coming, he immediately said, "How about the next game between my cousin and my second sister?"

Ling Ce turned his back to the door, and when he heard the words, he looked back and saw a slender girl coming with flowers and willows, wearing a moon-white dress, with a light posture and a graceful appearance, like a cloud floating in the sky.

Cui Ning squatted down at the three of them with a faint smile on his face and said, "I've seen my cousin, I've seen Fu Langjun and Wei Langjun." ”

Ling Ce couldn't hide his surprise on his face, this was the same person as the lively girl three years ago?!

"The second sister's chess skills are better than mine. Cui Guo got up and gave up his seat to Cui Ning.

Ling Ce couldn't help but glance at him, wondering in his heart whether his cousin was too heartless or too hearty?

Cui Ning walked over generously, "If my cousin is willing, Ah Ning should accompany me." ”

Fu Yuan and Wei Changyuan stopped playing chess, and they watched the excitement with interest on the side, the Cui Ning they saw yesterday was not like this!

"Cousin, please. "Girls don't care about getting married, and Ling Ce is not easy to twist.

Cui Ning sat down sideways, with a beautiful posture, unable to find a trace of fault.

Ling Ce was about to say something to let Cui Ning go first, but when he saw that she was thinking about something with her head tilted, he didn't rush to disturb.

"Oh, I didn't turn the corner all of a sudden, you all know what I look like!" Cui Ning suddenly felt that she was stupid, and her whole person was relieved, like a talented noblewoman who collapsed all of a sudden, revealing a small face with a bright smile, and pinched a chess piece boldly, "Come on, I'll play this game first." ”

Ling Ce slowed down for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at Wei Qian and Fu Yuan.

"Let's get started, shall we?" Fu Yuan raised his chin with a smile.
