69. Fight for flowers

Early in the morning of the second day, the Miao family set off with the Zhu family, the Xiao Miao family, and a group of grandchildren, but when they arrived at the second gate, they didn't see Yao Qikang and Yao Qichen, "Brother Kang and Brother Chen?"

Xiao Miao hurriedly replied: "Brother Kang said that he would study hard, and Brother Chen said that he would not go if he wanted to accompany his brother!" In fact, Yao Qikang consciously failed the children's exam, lost face, and was embarrassed to go to such an occasion, and Yao Qichen was frustrated in the county exam this year, which made him feel bottomless, and he was afraid that he would not be able to pass the exam by then, so he wanted to read more books.

Miao thought that Xiao Miao didn't want her two children to go, and she was a little unhappy, but in front of so many people, she couldn't give Xiao Miao too much shame, "These two children are hardworking, just follow them! Let's go!"

Xiao Miao diligently helped the old lady to board the carriage before returning to her carriage, and when she turned around, she saw the collar around Yao Kerong's neck, knowing that it was one of the few good jewelry for Aunt Dai, and she also knew Aunt Dai's thoughts, but she also hoped that Yao Kerong could be praised by everyone today, so she didn't care about Aunt Dai's careful thoughts.

On the carriage, Yao Keqing was telling his younger brother, "There are many people today, I may not be able to take care of you, you have to take care of yourself, don't quarrel with others, and don't rush to show off, just share An'an!"

"Sister, don't worry! I know it!" Yao Qishen is becoming more and more calm, compared to the average seven-year-old child, he is a little like an adult, but in the eyes of a real "adult" like Yao Keqing, he is always just a child.

Looking at such a calm and sensible younger brother, Yao Keqing was both relieved and heartbroken, relieved that his younger brother would never do some things like in his previous life, but he felt sorry for his younger brother A child had to abandon the child's innocence and live cautiously in order to avoid all kinds of calculations.

When I arrived at the Chongguo Mansion, many families had arrived, and the road was a little blocked for a while, and after a while, there were people from the Chongguo Mansion to lead the way, and everyone got out of the carriage and walked to the house with the girl who led the way.

"Old Lady Yao of the Changxiang Hou Mansion, Mrs. Yao, Second Lady Yao and all the young ladies and young masters have arrived!" The girl who led the way stood at the door and made a report, then opened the curtain and invited everyone in the Yao family to enter.

"The two of us haven't moved around in all these years! If it hadn't been for my wicked misfortune to mention it to me, I wouldn't have known that he had done such a thing outside!" Mrs. Zheng said.

As soon as Miao heard it, he knew that it was really because of Zheng Gongzi that they had posted to their family, but when they heard what she meant, it was actually Zheng Gongzi who had done something wrong, didn't he offend Brother Shen? ”

Hearing others praising her precious son, and the words actually meant not to care, Mrs. Zheng was also happy, "What's there to talk about! It's this brother, right? It's really handsome, look at it eight or nine years old!" Mrs. Zheng saw that there was only one male grandson who came with Mrs. Yao to ask for peace, and it was estimated that he was the grandson of the Fang family, so she hurriedly beckoned to him.

Yao Qishen asked for peace: "Say hello to Mrs. Zheng!"

Miao thought for a moment and said, "Brother Shen is only seven years old this year! It's just that he grows up fast and is taller, so he looks older than his peers!"

Mrs. Zheng was pleasantly surprised: "It's actually seven years old? I didn't see it! Didn't I talk about that evil in my family? I'll let people lead you to the garden to find him!" Mrs. Zheng really didn't expect that Yao Qishen was only seven years old, and he didn't look like a seven-year-old child in terms of body shape and bearing.

Although Yao Qishen was not familiar with Zheng Yingqing, he didn't want to stay in such a room where there were only women, so he signaled to Yao Keqing and went down with the girl who led the way.

The Miao family accompanied Mrs. Zheng to speak, naturally she wanted to introduce the Yao family, but when introducing the Zhu family, she was unspeakably awkward in her heart, "This is my eldest daughter-in-law, this is the second daughter-in-law, and this is the five granddaughters of the family!"

Everyone stepped forward to salute, Mrs. Zheng had heard that the Yao family was a conjugator, although they were two daughters-in-law, they were married to the same person, so it was not good to say anything, and the meeting gifts for Yao Keqing and everyone were the same, they were all ordinary objects.

Xiao Miao deliberately pushed Yao Kerong out, "This is my eldest daughter, I have been raised in the house for several years, and I am reluctant to let her come out to meet people, but I just received a post from the house, thinking that such a grand scene is rare, no, I brought her out!" Xiao Miao's words not only pointed out Yao Kerong's identity, but also praised the Zheng family's banquet.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Zheng heard this, she pulled Yao Kerong and asked carefully, such as "How old are you?", "What books did you read?", "What pastimes do you have on weekdays" and so on. After finishing speaking, he plucked the hairpin from his head and gave it to her, Yao Kerong saw Xiao Miao's nodding at her and accepted it.

Mrs. Zheng saw that the little girls were restrained in her place, so she asked them to lead them to the garden to play, leaving only the Miao family, the Xiao Miao family and the Zhu family to talk.

Yao Keqing and the others were led to a pavilion by the girl, and there were already other young ladies sitting sparsely in that pavilion, seeing that Yao Keqing and others were busy in the past, Yao Keqing had no intention of socializing with them, so he moved to the side and sat down, Yao Kerong fully demonstrated her demeanor, gentle and dignified, and soon became familiar with several young ladies, Yao Keyi followed behind her like her little follower, and made up a sentence for her from time to time, and everyone got along happily.

And Yao Kemeng is Yao Kerou's follower, Yao Kerou is still young and is not interested in these interactions, so she took Yao Kemeng to see the chrysanthemums, only Yao Keqing sat alone in the corner, looking alone, but someone wanted to greet her, but just looked at her cold expression, and didn't dare to go.

Yao Keqing didn't feel lonely, she didn't like to be lively, she felt very quiet when she was alone, and then a surprise cry suddenly sounded in her ears, "Sister Qing'er!" As soon as Yao Keqing turned around, he saw Su Zhen walking towards him, Xu was in a hurry, and his face was flushed.

"Sister Zhen!" Yao Keqing hurriedly stood up to salute, Su Zhen didn't have time to be polite to her, so she pulled her and sat down again, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and you won't come out after the post, fortunately, I didn't forget to write to me, otherwise, I will go directly to your house and arrest you!"

Yao Keqing dodged Su Zhen's hand that ravaged her cheek, and said with a smile: "I have a boudoir school at home, and I am busy reading at home every day!

Speaking of boudoir learning, Su Zhen pouted and said, "You still have the patience to learn! I'm impatient with that, my fingers are swollen every day!"

Yao Keqing saw that her fingertips only had a few pinholes, and she thought that her embroidery learning was not bad, but she couldn't sit down, so she pricked her hand. So he stretched out his hand to her, "You just pierced a few small pinholes, look at my hand, the embroidery is all cocooned!"

Su Zhen touched it, and Yao Keqing's fingertips really had a thin layer of cocoons, and she suddenly felt that she was working harder than herself, and it was not good to complain. In fact, the cocoon on Yao Keqing's hand was sharpened by practicing calligraphy and painting, and it had nothing to do with embroidery.

Su Zhen was lively and couldn't sit still, so she pulled Yao Keqing to accompany her to enjoy the flowers, and Yao Keqing had to follow her.

The weather in September, the breeze is not cold, the sun shines on the body but not strong, it is a good time to travel and enjoy. The Zheng family invited the Jingzhong family today, Rao is the Zheng family's garden is large, but it is divided into half of men and women, and so many people are invited, the garden is also crowded, and you will meet people when you walk a few steps. Su Zhen was familiar with the Zheng family's garden, turned left and right, and pulled Yao Keqing to a flower garden in a few moments.

The Zheng family's chrysanthemum varieties are quite complete, in addition to the common ones, there are also a little red lips, dragon spit beads, ink chrysanthemum, snow sea and other chic chrysanthemums, even rare varieties such as Erqiao! Su Zhen looked at a yellow fragrant pear, and was about to let people pick it off, next to it a hand to pick off the chrysanthemum, Su Zhen was busy covering it with her hand, and the hand actually brushed away Su Zhen's hand, still going to pinch the flower, Su Zhen was in a hurry, so she grabbed it, and the two of them actually ripped off a lot of petals of the flower, Su Zhen was about to say, "It's a pity, it was broken!" An angry voice rang out from the side, "You have broken my flower!"

"Obviously, you broke it! Also, I took a fancy to this flower first, why do you want to rob it from me!" Su Zhen was not to be outdone.

The woman in red who grabbed the flower with Su Zhen said disdainfully: "You didn't pick it off, why did you say it was yours? Since it is still on the flower branch, then whoever picked it should be whoever!"

Su Zhen said angrily: "I have never seen such an unreasonable person as you! Obviously you are wrong, but you are still strong!"

The woman in red didn't say anything else to Su Zhen, but asked, "You broke my flowers, is it possible that you still want to deny it?"

"You ......" Su Zhen was about to speak, Yao Keqing grabbed her, Su Zhen looked at Yao Keqing suspiciously, stepped forward, picked off the broken yellow fragrant pear, and asked, "It's all broken, why are you still picking it?"

Yao Keqing gave Su Zhen a reassuring look and asked the woman in red, "You broke my flowers, what should I do?"

The woman in red knotted, "Who said this is your flower?"

Yao Keqing pretended to be puzzled, "Didn't you just say that whoever picks it is who's whoever? Now that I pick it, it's mine! But you broke it, what should I do?"

The woman in red pointed at Su Zhen and said, "Obviously she broke it! What are you looking for me to do!"

Yao Keqing said "oh", and pulled Su Zhen to leave, and the woman in red shouted behind her: "You can't go!"

Yao Keqing asked, "Why can't I go?"

"Because ......" The woman in red suddenly found that whether she could go or not now seemed to have nothing to do with herself, and it was clear that they were still arguing about the flower just now, and the topic seemed to have changed now.

Yao Keqing said leisurely: "The flower is not yours, and you didn't break it, and I don't know you, what am I going to do here?" After speaking, Yao Keqing really left the stunned woman in red and left with Su Zhen.

didn't go far, Su Zhen smiled and squatted down holding her stomach, "Haha...... You didn't see her just like that, so angry! like a crab just out of the pot......"

Yao Keqing thought about the red clothes, and the ruby head on his head, which was red, not like a boiled crab!

"How did you come up with this idea?" Su Zhen finally smiled, stood up, and asked while rubbing her stomach.

Yao Keqing smiled lightly: "I learned from others!" She really learned from others, but this other person was not someone else, but her younger brother Yao Qishen.
