“…… Yes. Yan Qi saw that several familiar wives next to her all turned their faces and smiled at her, with the deep meaning of "We know everything, but we just don't say it" in their eyes.

"You don't come to see me. The person who spoke didn't care how others were staring at him, he just looked at Yan Qi, "Lost weight." ”

Yan Qi glanced at this person not far behind, Young Master Yan Jiu was standing there with his hands in his hands, looking at her as if he was smiling, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and said while continuing to move forward, "Are you okay?"

"Didn't I hear that I sent you a letter. The man walked side by side with her, and his rose-purple robe stood out.

"Ah...... Yes, I am a noble man who forgets things. "Yan Qidao.

"It's okay to say this from someone else?!" the man shook his head, and suddenly a purse suddenly appeared in his hand as if he were doing a trick, "Oh, I'll give it to you." ”

"What are you messing with again?" Yan Qi took it, only to feel that the purse was heavy, and when he opened it, there was a small bronze mirror the size of a palm, "It's so small, it can't hold my face." ”

"For you to use for fun. The man laughed, "Go back and get the lamp and look at the mirror, and the pattern on the back of the mirror will be projected on the wall." ”

"Huh, the translucent mirror?" Yan Qi was really surprised.

"Oh, have you heard of it?" said the man.

Yan Qi nodded: "But this is a skill in the Western Han Dynasty, and it was lost later." ”

"That's right," the man also nodded, "Now I've figured it out, this is the first side of my own success, the pattern is a little simpler, and I will send you better when I turn around." ”

"Okay, then you're welcome. Yan Qi put away his purse, heard someone passing by, and coldly dropped a sentence: "Give and receive privately!"

It was Yan Wu girl, with a cold face, staring at Yan Qi with disgust in her eyes, and before Yan Qi could react, the person next to her replied with a smile: "There is no one in your eyes!"

Private teaching and receiving is acting secretly behind people's backs, but at this time, there are dozens of guests around, and Miss Yan Wu uses this word not to see no one else in her eyes.

"Cui Xi!" Miss Yan Wu was so angry that she turned around and glared at this person fiercely, her face flushed, and she didn't know if she was annoyed or something.

"Yan Wu, I haven't seen any growth after a year, but my temper is getting bigger and bigger, is it because I eat too much meat and have a weak internal fire?"

Miss Yan Wu seemed to hear several sneers around her, and couldn't help but suspect that everyone thought of her humiliating incident two days ago, and her face couldn't get down, and she screamed angrily: "Cui Xi! Why didn't you die of illness! You—"

"Little Five!" A cold drink interrupted the words behind Miss Yan Wu, but she saw that it was Miss Yan Er, although her voice was stern, there was a faint smile on her face, and then her voice eased down, and she came over and poked lightly on Miss Yan's forehead, "There must be a degree of joking, even if Brother Xi treats you as a sister when he is young, he can't talk to his brother like this." ”

Does Cui Xi regard Yan Wu as his own sister, no one knows this except for the parties, but Yan Er Girl just said it so magnificently, and those who have a heart know that this is just to excuse Yan Wu's unscrupulous words, the Cui Yan family is so good that it is understandable that the children quarrel too much, and this is mainly for the Cui family, otherwise the old lady in the family will have a big birthday, you Yan Wu is here to curse the death of the baby grandson, who can be happy when you hear it?

After saying these words, the second girl Yan still had a smile on her face, but she squeezed out a few unheard words from between her teeth and said to the fifth girl: "Are you impatient with a happy life, or do you think your mother is living too smoothly in this family?"

Miss Yan lowered her head, no matter how pampered she was, she could see that Mrs. Yan's rubbing of Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Yansan's targeting of Mrs. Yan, in the past, Mrs. Yan was used by Mrs. Yan to play on the topic because of her mistakes in words and deeds, as well as Mrs. Yansan's cynicism, Mrs. Yan loved her correctly, but this love never made the old lady love the house and Wudi more tolerant of her mother, and no matter how favored she was, she would never dare to touch the old lady's tiger whiskers.

Seeing that the second girl Yan had continued to walk forward, the fifth girl Yan glared at Yan Qi and Cui Xi fiercely, gritted her teeth and lowered her voice: "Don't think I don't know what is going on behind your back!"

Yan Qi was next to him: What kind of business do Lao Tzu and Cui Xiaosi have, you tell me clearly before leaving! And what kind of eyes did you see in those aunts?! It's no wonder that you laugh like a lewd but not look!

Yan Qi doesn't want this evil fate with Cui Xi, the fourth young master of the Cui family, the two families have been closely following up on their own house for decades, and it is normal for the children of the two families to play together since childhood! But Cui Xiaosi was not in good health, and the old monk said that the girl was raised until she was twelve years old, so Yan Qi, who didn't know the truth, went to someone's house to play when she was eight years old, and when she was tired, she generously went to sleep with someone on the kang lunch break, and the parents on both sides knew that they wanted to order a doll for the two of them, but fortunately, Yan Er and his wife were on the frontier and no one made a decision, so this matter was put down as a joke. But fucking I don't know which broken mouth later spread the word about it, and the two families who are good friends have heard the joke of the doll kiss, every time I see Yan Xiaoqi and Cui Xiaosi playing together, a group of idle noble ladies will laugh with all kinds of coaxing and flying eyes, it is difficult for them to have a scandal for so many years and they are not tired, they know that this is just a joke and they are happy to maintain the enthusiasm of onlookers, the most annoying is Yan Xiaojiu! often ridiculed this matter, but even wrote it in a letter to Mrs. Yan's second wife, so that Mrs. Yan wrote to Yan Qi every once in a while to ask about Cui Xiaosi's current situation, as if she had regarded Cui Xiaosi as her own quasi-son-in-law.

In this regard, Cui Xi, the fourth master of the Cui family, didn't care at all, "Anyway, I don't like women." He said.

Yan Qi: "Huh?"

"You don't count. Cui Xi said.

Yan Qi: "......" didn't feel happy at all.

Yan Qi Cui Si's scandal and Yan Wu's pampering Most of the guests have heard of it and have long been accustomed to it, no one will really take these fairy tales as a rarity, and the first thing is to be busy with their own social entertainment, and a group of guests made a noise to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Cui, and then sat down one after another, eating and drinking and boiling the sky, and it took nearly an hour before it came to an end.

However, the birthday banquet is only the beginning of today's whole banquet, after eating the banquet, all the guests collectively moved to another place, but seeing the stage surrounded by high seats, eating wine and listening to the play is the second act of the banquet program.

The male and female guests are still divided into left and right ring seats, and the old birthday star and the high-ranking person sit in the middle, and they first ordered a few plays to warm up, including "Xiangzhi Welcomes Birthday", "Zigu Zhanfu", "Yutang Spring", "Rouge Snow" and "Lotus Beads" , Soon they babbled and sang, the men ate wine, the women drank tea, there were fruits and pastries on the table, and those who were not full at the banquet could take this opportunity to fill their stomachs, Yan Qi ate a piece of manna cake, ate a piece of begonia cake, ate chicken bone cake and hemp kernel chestnut cake, drank four or five cups of fragrant and hot melon slice tea, and then felt full, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and listened to the play with his chin.

I don't understand it, it's very lively anyway, after singing the play, there are people from Cui's house who take a big basket to the stage and sprinkle copper plates like flowers scattered by the goddess, and then a group of people watch those actors grab money on the stage with their heads tied up and laugh.

Yan Qi looked away and glanced at the old lady Cui sitting on the "stand" in front of him, in fact, he is not too old, today is his fiftieth birthday, the ancients got married early, as long as they are not short-lived, the four generations in the same house abound.

Next to Mrs. Cui sat a few old men who looked quite majestic, thinking that they were officials who came to cheer, and next to them were Yan Zike, who didn't laugh with others, nor did he look at the drama to grab money, holding his chin in one hand and holding a wine cup in the other, and listening to a big head talking to him with a faint face.

Qiao Zhifu, the official of Kyoto's parents, is much harder than foreign officials, and the birthday of an official with a higher level than him in Beijing, as long as it is not a particularly shallow relationship, he either has to come to the door to congratulate him in person, or he must send a congratulatory ceremony, who makes him a "parent". At this time, he was foaming at the mouth with two eight-figure eyebrows, but I don't know if Yan Zike heard it.

Moving his gaze again, Yan Qi saw the young master Yan Jiu sitting next to the old lady Yan with his sleeves in the male guest bush opposite, with his eyelids drooping with an old face, remembering that this thing likes Cheng Yulou who sings Tsing Yi in the Cheng family's class, Cheng Yulou doesn't seem to have come today, this product must be quite disappointed. chased stars at a young age, and he was still chasing a puppet.

Moved to the side, separated by more than a dozen seats, Cui Xi lazily propped up on the coffee table, a white jade-like face with a bit of tiredness after recovering from a serious illness, Yan Qi remembered the letter he gave her, it seemed that it was because of the cold winter that he fell into his own lake, suffered from typhoid fever, and almost lost his life, but unfortunately the Yan family was busy before and after the year, no one came to Cui Mansion as a guest, and when he heard that Cui Xi was sick, he only sent a family with a head and face to ask, and sent some nourishing medicine, after all, he was just a child, and it was not worth the labor to come to the door to condole, Yan Qi had no one to take with him, and naturally it was impossible to visit him alone, everyone sat for a while and left, and there was no chance to see him who was still sick.

Cui Xi also saw Yan Qi, smiling at her across the mountains and seas, there was no shortage of people at the table who paid special attention to him, and when he saw this, he looked back, but only found a bloated wife who was sending a rose nine-layer cake to her mouth.
