By the garden pond, peach blossom wine and snacks are placed on the stone table.

Today's sky is clear, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, which is a good time to enjoy the scenery.

Yu Mingzhi looked at this good season, and sighed slightly in his heart--where would he have thought that not long ago, the seventeen members of their Yu family were still on the road of exile in a difficult and difficult way.

Guo Baoyun is like a bird chirping non-stop, enthusiastic and lively.

Yu Mingzhi dealt with her, no matter what she was aware of before, or Qi's mother's reminder, she had to temporarily get closer to Yao and Guo Baoyun, and then get to know more people in Beijing.

It's nothing more than those deceptions in the house, she hasn't experienced it, but it's not that she hasn't seen those things in her uncle's house.

"My mother said before that in a few days I would have a banquet for my aunt, aunt and cousins, as well as some ladies and ladies of merchant families, to celebrate your homecoming. Guo Baoyun said, and poured another glass of wine for Yu Mingzhi, "When the time comes, get to know the sisters again, and you can pass the time by playing in the future." ”

"Good. Yu Mingzhi looked at the full glass of wine poured in front of him, and drank it all under Guo Baoyun's blazing gaze. Then, she covered her forehead, her body was crooked, and she looked like she was overwhelmed.

Qi's mother hurriedly supported her, "Miss, be careful." ”

Yu Mingzhi said softly: "I'm a little dizzy. ”

Guo Baoyun hurriedly approached to care about her, and blamed herself: "It's all my fault, I think the wine is delicious, so I let my sister drink more." ”

Yu Mingzhi waved his hand weakly, "It's okay, I'll just go back and lie down." ”

"There's still an hour before dinner, and when the time comes, I'll call my sister to get up. Guo Baoyun helped Yu Mingzhi to get up and sent a short distance, "Mother Qi, you must take care of the eldest lady." ”

Mother Qi nodded, "Second Miss don't worry." ”

Guo Baoyun watched her sister and nurse leave, then turned around and smiled at the personal maid: "Chunli, the people of Qin She will come in a while and change my clothes for me." Oh yes, my sister is drunk and sleepy, and it won't be good if she loses her honor in front of the Qin Sheren, so let her rest well and don't bother. ”

Chunli replied crisply: "Yes, miss." ”

Guo Baoyun stroked her satin-like hair, smiling more delicate and beautiful than the flowers blooming in spring.

In the middle of the day, Qin Ji and Guo Chang came back together, Yao's had already arranged a table of good dishes, placed in the small garden of the Baoqing Building, the peony under the two-story small building, the tender yellow and delicate Yao Huang, the white with powder like a delicate girl Zhao Fan and the group of bright champion red, a few steps away planted a purple leaf thick plum, the white flowers swaying with the night wind, the faint fragrance floated around the small building, elegant and rich.

Guo Baoyun was wearing a water-green skirt, with a white yarn wrapped around her arms, which was plain and gentle and beautiful, especially the white yarn was blown by the wind, fluttering like a fairy.

"Qin Sheren. She smiled sweetly and saluted.

Qin Ji fiddled with a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and asked unhurriedly, "Do Mrs. Guo and Second Miss like the gift sent this morning?"

Guo Baoyun hurriedly said: "I like it, thank you Qin ......"

Qin Ji and Guo Chang walked upstairs, "Baozhi asked me to prepare, and she should be thanked." ”

A crimson stained Guo Baoyun's cheeks, she lowered her head slightly and followed behind, not wanting Qin Ji to stop suddenly, she wanted to hit him directly on the back, but her mother grabbed her arm.

"No, you can't. Yao's eyes warned her.

Qin Ji looked at a few of them and asked, "Why don't you see Baozhi?"

The people of Qin She are condescending, as if they are gods and Buddhas who control all life and death, which is daunting. The weak-hearted Guo Baoyun didn't rush to talk to him, and Yao understood the reason - it was she who deliberately concealed the news that Qin Ji was coming to Guo's house for dinner, and only told her own daughter.

Yao was about to open his mouth to explain, but he heard a clear and beautiful voice coming.

"I'm sorry, Baozhi is late, don't be surprised by the people of Qinshe. ”

Guo Baoyun raised her head and looked at her sister who came in surprise, judging from her face and demeanor, where was the slightest drunken look?

Was it pretended before?

Yu Mingzhi took the initiative to solve her doubts, "Thanks to Mother Qi's hangover soup, and then I heard Chun Tao say that the Qin Sheren were coming in a while, so I quickly packed it up." ”

Mouthy dead girl. Guo Baoyun bit her lip, "It's all my sister's fault for not being ......"

"No hindrance......" Yu Mingzhi smiled kindly and peacefully, Guo Baoyun would not know that she was pretending to be drunk, because she had already seen her intentions, and sure enough, after waiting for more than half an hour, Chun Tao was talking to other maids outside, only to know that Qin had the opportunity to come to dinner in the evening.

She could have continued to pretend to be drunk and lie on the bed to avoid Qin Ji, but she didn't want to look weak and stupid in front of Yao's mother and daughter, as if she was easy to be manipulated. Besides, I don't want to look afraid of Qin Ji and deliberately avoid it.

"Seeing that my sister is safe, my sister is relieved. Guo Baoyun didn't know Yu Mingzhi's thoughts, and held her arm intimately.

Qin Ji's sharp gaze fell on the "two sisters", and the hand that played with the Buddha beads paused, and then stretched out his hand to Yu Mingzhi, "Zhizhi, go upstairs with me." ”

This prodigal. Yu Mingzhi glared at him, and raised his hand slightly under the gaze of his "family".

Qin Ji grabbed her hand at once, held it firmly, and dragged her upstairs together.

Looking at the backs of the talented and beautiful pair, Guo Chang stroked his beard and smiled, not noticing the meaningful glance between Yao and Guo Baoyun behind him.

went upstairs and took a seat, and after three rounds of drinking, Qin Ji asked Yu Mingzhi softly, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Yu Mingzhi said: "You don't have to bother with this in the middle of the night, you are not tired enough to deal with official affairs in the court, and you are busy fighting with political enemies?"

Qin Ji squeezed her hand, and her smiling eyes were brighter than the lanterns, "Zhizhi really cares about me." ”

Where can you see the "......"?

Qin Ji stroked the back of her hand again, the scars on it were already thin and shallow, almost returning to their original white and tender, smooth and delicate to the touch, making people can't help but want to touch a few more. It's a pity that he knows Yu Mingzhi's personality, and at this time, their relationship, too many actions will attract disgust.

He wanted to pamper his branches and didn't want to cause her any discomfort.

Therefore, he let go of his hand before Yu Mingzhi objected and picked up vegetables for her.

Seeing that he was so diligent, Yao smiled and persuaded: "The girl's family eats less, she will be too fat in the future, and the Xiang Guild will not like it." ”

Qin Ji said lightly: "No matter what the branches are, I will not change my mind." ”

"Ahem......" Yao wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

The atmosphere is subtle and embarrassing, Guo Chang has been in the mall for many years, and he has long been an old fritter, so he solved the siege in time and said: "The little couple is so sweet, you don't need to eat the pastries after dinner for a while, it's going to be sweet and lose your teeth." ”

Whether the people at the table were smiling or smiling, the atmosphere eased up.

Out of politeness, Qin Ji toasted Guo Chang and Yao's wine again, and then Guo Chang talked to him about the wedding period, "Today I went to ask someone to calculate the good day and auspicious day, there are three days to choose, Qin Sheren take a look?"

Qin Ji took it and showed it to Yu Mingzhi to look at.

Three days, one on June 11, one on June 27, and one on the first day of August.

Without waiting for Yu Mingzhi to speak, Qin Ji said: "August is a good day. With that, he looked up and smiled at her.

Yu Mingzhi was stunned.

June was her father's birthday, and Qin Ji was anxious, but for her sake, he avoided June.
