By the time Qin Jinchun came to the women's table in the garden, it was almost time to start.

Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jinhua, who had been busy receiving guests and talking and laughing with the guests, immediately greeted them.

Qin Hanzhen said angrily: "The fourth sister is here." I saw you following me, and I thought you had arrived in the garden early, but I didn't expect you to come at this time. Where the hell have you been?"

Qin Jinhua was also complaining: "Look at the half day you have been delaying, Cousin Lu is in a hurry! Fortunately, the fifth sister has been pestering her to talk, and she still has an excuse not to go to her mother-in-law's side, otherwise we don't know how to tell Mrs. Yunyang Hou!"

Qin Jinchun's face immediately turned red, and he whispered a defense: "I...... I met an acquaintance and had a casual conversation. Then he quickly changed the subject, "Is my eldest sister here?"

Qin Hanzhen glanced around: "Not yet." Lianshi just reported that the eldest sister accidentally turned her foot in the front yard and wanted to go to my yard to rest. Lianshi was clever, and said that my yard was far away, and helped people to the main courtyard, and there were three or four mothers-in-law and little girls staring at her. I don't know if she really hurt her foot, or if she pretended, anyway, she didn't come, and I didn't force her to come. After a while, I asked someone to see her, and if she really didn't come, just send her a drink and food to enjoy. ”

Qin Jinchun was a little relieved: "It's okay if the eldest sister doesn't come." The garden was large, and not as regular as the house in the front yard. If something happens to her, we can't prevent it. Even if all the people who come here today are relatives and friends, it's not good to embarrass her too much. ”

Qin Hanzhen felt the same way. In fact, she didn't want to invite Qin Jinyi to come today, and she didn't even post. However, considering that Qin Bofu in the second room now has a much more attentive attitude towards the long room and the third room, and Qin Jinchun is there, he sent a post to the second room, and then privately sent a message to Qin Jinchun, asking her to hint to her family not to bring Qin Jinyi with her. Who knows how the second room was discussed? It's good that the Xue family didn't come, but they left the little Xue family behind, and instead let Qin Jinyi come with Qin Jinchun. In front of the male guests, there was Qin Bofu and his son Qin Xun. It seems that the father and son will not miss any opportunity to contact dignitaries and nobles, but it is really annoying to bring Qin Jinyi with them.

Among the guests who came today, there are still many noble sons, and now that the men's and women's seats are divided, it is okay, but when there is no division, Qin Han is really worried that Qin Jinyi will make some trouble. Instead of being scared, it is really better to let Qin Jinyi take the opportunity of her foot injury to stay and eat by herself.

Qin Jinhua whispered to the two cousins: "I just listened to my mother discuss with the fifth aunt, saying that she was going to send the girls around her to wait for the eldest sister, and by the way, she also brought the eldest sister's maids over, but in fact, she was staring at their master and servant, afraid that they would make trouble." ”

Qin Jinyi may not know that the long room and the third room are now guarding against her, but she completely ignored it and continued to swagger to the door, this cheeky person is thick enough. I'm afraid that until she finds a satisfactory good family, she will continue to be cheeky, right?

Qin Hanzhen also knew what the Xue family and Qin Jinyi were drawing, so he didn't pay attention to it, and only said, "Fourth sister, hurry up and see Cousin Lu." If you don't go to say hello to Mrs. Cai, the table will start in a while. In front of everyone, it's even more obvious, for fear that others will make fun of you. ”

Qin Jinchun's face was slightly red, and he was a little timid: "Is that good......? That's how I ...... in my family."

Qin Jinhua smiled and grabbed her arm: "With Cousin Lu here, what are you afraid of? Cousin Lu and you are your aunt and sister, she doesn't have a sister, you are the same as her sister." She wants to take her sister to visit her mother-in-law, but it's just an ordinary courtesy, so what's there to be afraid of? The Cai family knows the situation in your family very well, how can they dislike you if they didn't dislike Cousin Lu at the beginning?"

Qin Hanzhen also smiled and nodded: "Don't be afraid, you are an understanding person and know what you should do." For the Marquis of Yunyang, the affairs of your family are not troublesome at all, you just need to behave yourself. ”

Qin Jinchun took a deep breath, nodded, and followed Qin Jinhua to see Lu Yueniang with a red face. Qin Hanzhen followed with a smile.

Qin Jinrong pestered Lu Yueniang for a long time, and finally became satisfied, still pestering his cousin, discussing whether they could go out of the city together on March 3. Lu Yueniang is now a daughter-in-law, where can she be so free? Not to mention her current body...... Lu Yueniang smiled and comforted her cousin, trying to refuse politely, but it took a little effort, so when she saw Qin Hanzhen's sisters in the past, it was like drowsiness and a pillow, and they were welcomed. After the cousins said a few words, she took Qin Jinchun to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Yunyang Hou.

Qin Jinrong was a little dissatisfied: "I know, you want to be a matchmaker for the fourth sister! Can't you let the fourth sister go by herself? Why do you have to bother me Cousin Lu?!"

Qin Jinhua glanced at his cousin: "Don't talk nonsense! Don't mention it in front of others." This is something that the two have discussed for a long time, but now is not the time to say it!"

Qin Hanzhen also glanced at Qin Jinrong: "What do you know? If this family business is said well, Cousin Lu will be able to gain face in her in-law's house, and she will have arms in the future." If something goes wrong, or because of the fifth sister, what do you think Cousin Lu will be said about by her in-laws? Will she blame you for causing trouble for her then?"

Qin Jinrong's face changed, and he said coldly: "I won't cause trouble for Cousin Lu! Don't treat me as an ignorant child!" After that, he turned around and left, but he also knew the seriousness of the matter, and he wouldn't talk about it casually.

Qin Jinhua looked at her back and sighed: "Fifth sister's temper really makes people don't know what to do. When she was a child, some people said that she was honest, but now that she is getting older and older, others will think that she has a bad temperament. The third aunt said that she didn't listen to her, and she became more and more unwilling to discipline her, and the third uncle couldn't do anything about her. If it goes on like this, its reputation will be ruined, how can I say kiss?"

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "The second sister is now worried about the fifth sister's relatives, is it too early? She is only eleven years old this year, and she is still a child." ”

Qin Jinhua shook his head and did not speak. Eleven years old can't be considered a child. When she was eleven years old, her mother, Yao, had already begun to look at people for her. A few days ago, she also heard her grandmother Xu talking to her third aunt Min, blaming Min for not letting Qin Jinrong play petty and not strictly disciplining her, for fear that Qin Jinrong would be difficult to say goodbye in the future. The third aunt Min said at the time that if Qin Jinrong really couldn't get married, her maiden Min family had nephews to choose. At that time, Xu's face was very ugly. Qin Jinhua saw it outside the door at that time, and he didn't dare to enter the house.

It can be seen that the elders in the family have begun to consider Qin Jinrong's marriage, and it is really not too early. But in this case, she is not good to tell the third sister. It is true that Qin Hanzhen is close to her, but this is a matter of the long house after all.

Qin Jinhua could only say to Qin Hanzhen: "You go and greet the guests." It's a good day for you, and you don't have to worry about these trivial things. I went to my grandmother's place to see, she was not in a good mood today, and I went to comfort her. ”

Qin Hanzhen responded, and said with a smile: "Uncle and grandmother came over this morning, and her face has not been very good-looking, but don't be unwell, right? My grandmother asked her if she was sick, and she said no." Could it be that the Xu family failed to show up today, so they are depressed?"

Qin Jinhua glanced at her with disgust, and gently twisted her cheek: "Say less!"

Qin Hanzhen smiled and dodged.

This is still the gossip that Qin Jinhua revealed in private before, and the Tao was that when she chose herself and the praiser and Yousi in the ceremony, because she chose her fourth cousin Qin Jinchun, and invited foreign aid Yu Xinlan, the Xu family once mentioned it to the eldest son Qin Zhonghai, saying that it would be good if the two sisters of the Xu family could be invited over, and their own cousins are not outsiders, it is better than specially inviting the daughter of Shoushan Bofu. Qin Zhonghai is a knowledgeable person, knowing that Yu Xinlan's weight is by no means comparable to the Xu family sisters, and Sanfang is not a person who was picked for no reason. He didn't say much about his mother, but said: "The Xu family still has filial piety." "Just blocked Xu's back. It's just that the Xu family came to watch the ceremony today, saw the liveliness of the scene, and then saw Qin Jinchun's praised appearance, even Mrs. Yunyang Hou said that she was good, and her face was not very good-looking.

The Xu family previously said that they didn't have to invite outsiders to invite the Xu sisters, but in fact, it was mostly just an excuse. Yu Xinlan's position is unshakable, but Qin Jinchun may not. What she really wants to replace the sisters of the Xu family is actually Qin Jinchun's position as the secretary, right? Once Qin Hanzhen and the ceremony are over, if the two Hou mansions want to have such a lively and decent ceremony, they will have to wait until Qin Jinrong is fifteen years old. After all, they missed a good opportunity to show themselves in front of the noble ladies, and they didn't know how to fight for a good family affair in the future. It is understandable that Xu is unhappy about this.

Anyway, she's always been like that.

Qin Hanzhen said goodbye to Qin Jinhua, turned around and went to greet Cai Yuanzhen, Yu Xinlan, Tang Su, Zhang Shu and others. Today, these friends really helped a lot.

Tang Su and Zhang Shu held hands and didn't know where to play, only Cai Yuanzhen and Yu Xinlan were sitting at the table, and the two were talking. Seeing Qin Hanzhen coming, Cai Yuanzhen first quipped: "Can you be considered free? Finally remembered us, it's not easy." But for the sake of your sisters being busy with my seventeenth brother's life's work, I'll forgive you for once. ”

Qin Hanzhen stepped forward with a smile and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm slacking off today." The two distinguished guests only need to eat and drink well, and if there is any rudeness, I hope that the distinguished guests will be Haihan. ”

said this as if he was the owner of the restaurant, Cai Yuanzhen and Yu Xinlan both laughed. Yu Xinlan said: "If you lend me the handscroll of the former Ming Wen Hengshan's "Lin Xie Sencha Picture" for a month, I will forgive you." ”

It was his grandfather's collection. This is a robbery while the fire is burning. Qin Hanzhen laughed first: "It's not impossible, Ming'er, I'll ask my lobby brother to send it to you, how about it?"

Yu Xinlan blushed slightly, sat upright and said, "Not well." If you want to borrow me, who will give it or not?"

Cai Yuanzhen raised her eyebrows and looked at the two of them: "A painting, why is it so troublesome to send it back and forth?
