Chapter 15 Differential Treatment
Glancing at the fading starlight outside, he silently left the cultivation room.
As soon as it was dawn, he came to the docks.
Dada——
Not long after they arrived, three fast horses came in the morning light.
On horseback, there were Xia Qilin and a few of his classmates and friends, as well as an eight-lift sedan chair.
"So my cousin is too. Xia Qilin arrived at the dock and looked at Xia Qingchen coldly.
Last time, Xia Qingchen injured Li Weifeng's son at his grandfather's birthday banquet, almost causing big trouble for their Xia Mansion in the north of the city.
Seeing each other now, naturally there is no good attitude.
"He's the bastard who injured Brother Li?" On another horse, a young man with sharp eyes sat steadily, glaring at Xia Qingchen with cold eyes.
"What kind of three-headed and six-armed character is my Dao, it turns out to be a poor sour son, and Li Yaozong's beating is really not worth it. "On the third horse, there's a pompously dressed gentleman.
Xia Qingchen only glanced at them lightly, and then silently withdrew his gaze.
To him, these three people are just insignificant ants, so why bother?
"Hehe, it's quite temperamental, but it's a pity that it's just poor!" the young man laughed.
Xia Qilin said lightly: "Cousin, let's go back, I can pick up my cousin, it's better for you not to stay here and bring humiliation on yourself." ”
He came to pick up his cousin, not only brought two noble sons with heads and faces, but also specially hired an eight-lift sedan chair.
Later, I will go to an extremely noble place to catch the wind and wash the dust.
And what about Xia Qingchen?
Embarrassed to come empty-handed?
Xia Qingchen turned a deaf ear, he was not interested in welcoming his cousin, but his father was killed.
Seeing that he refused to leave, Xia Qilin sneered, his eyes full of contempt.
Woo –
The sound of a loud horn suddenly came from the depths of the canal.
But I saw a huge merchant ship with the word "Wu" hanging on it, pushing the waves and sailing slowly.
On the bow of the boat, there is a beautiful woman in blue clothes.
The posture is as delicate as jade, the eyebrows are picturesque, and the skin is as creamy as jade in the faint sunlight, refracting a little bit of sparkling.
She and the bow of the ship, the canal, and the houses on both sides of the ship together to form a freehand picture.
"Brother Xia, is that your cousin?" The young man looked straight and couldn't help but admire: "Fresh and refined, beautiful and dusty, like a fairy!"
The young man with sharp eyes refused to blink: "It is worthy of being a person from the imperial capital, that temperament is really amazing!"
Xia Qilin was also fascinated, three years have passed, and her cousin has changed into a beautiful one.
His heart couldn't help but beat.
When the merchant ship docked, Zhao Churan slowly walked off the deck and came to the dock.
She was followed by a group of maids and husbands, carrying her belongings.
Her beautiful eyes blinked, swept through the crowd on the dock, and immediately recognized Xia Qilin, stepped forward, and smiled lightly: "Cousin Qilin." ”
Xia Qilin looked at his beautiful cousin at close range, and he was a little stupid, until the young man stabbed him in the arm, and then he woke up like a dream, and hurriedly said: "Cousin Churan!
Zhao Churan had a calm temperament and said, "Not busy!"
She beckoned, and a husband came over with two boxes of things: "This is the Xuanling Green Heart that my mother has carefully prepared for my grandfather and second uncle, which can purify my internal strength and is beneficial to my cultivation." ”
Hearing this, the young man's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise: "Brother Xia, the gift of your cousin's family is too valuable, Xuanling Green Heart is only sold in the imperial capital, and the price is not expensive, these two boxes cost 100,000 silver!"
Xia Qilin was grateful: "Auntie is kind, my father and grandfather will definitely like it when they receive it." ”
Zhao Churan smiled lightly, laughing Xia Qilin's heart was full of joy, and hurriedly said: "I have prepared a banquet, let's take the wind and wash the dust for my cousin first." ”
"Hmm. Zhao Churan did not refuse, and followed Xia Qilin out of the crowd.
Stepping forward, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xia Qingchen, and said in surprise: "Cousin Qingchen, are you here too?"
She looked a little more cramped.
"Cousin, long time no see. Xia Qingchen stepped forward, her eyes were flat, and she was not moved by her beauty at all.
Zhao Churan hesitated for a moment before revealing a faint smile: "Mother also asked me to prepare a gift for my uncle." ”
A handmaiden stepped forward and took out an oiled paper bag.
In the exposed corner, you can see that there is very cheap tea inside, which can be bought in Yungucheng.
A whole package, probably less than ten taels of silver.
Compared with the gift of 100,000 yuan to Beixia Mansion, the tea leaves of ten taels of silver in front of him are really shabby enough.
Xia Qingchen sighed silently in his heart, even his aunt was a person who tended to be inflammatory.
The second uncle has a successful family, so he carefully prepares gifts, and his father is not as good as him, so he is perfunctory.
Zhao Churan also felt embarrassed.
Originally, I planned to send the gifts to the two families separately, so that the uncle would not know that there was a difference between the gifts given to the two families.
Who would have thought that Xia Qingchen would also come to pick him up and see through the two gifts.
But she quickly looked calm, anyway, her mother didn't plan to continue to go with her uncle, she was not happy if she was not happy, as long as she contacted the second uncle's family to have a good relationship.
"Some tea, it's my mother's heart. She handed the oiled paper packet over.
Xia Qingchen took it with no different color, and said indifferently: "Auntie's heart, I thank my father for it! My cousin should be hungry all the way, right? I have set up a simple banquet to entertain my cousin." ”
The two Xia families all picked up the wind and washed the dust for her.
But she wasn't embarrassed, and smiled apologetically very naturally: "Cousin Qilin invited first, sorry Cousin Qingchen." ”
She came this time to contact the relationship with Beixia Mansion.
Why do you care about the feelings of Nanxia Mansion?
Xia Qingchen's expression was flat, if he didn't accept it, he still wanted to waste his cultivation time?
"In that case, cousin go. Xia Qingchen said calmly, not feeling sad or aggrieved at all.
As he spoke, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Eh, cousin, I'm here, why leave in a hurry?Isn't it good to talk to my cousin more?" Xia Qilin said suddenly.
He was polite in his mouth, but there was ill intent in his eyes.
"No, I don't. Xia Qingchen said lightly.
The young man understood what Xia Qilin was thinking, and said peacefully: "Yes, you just left like this, didn't you mean to embarrass your cousin?"
In this way, Xia Qingchen stopped.
has said that it is this, and if he leaves, he will indeed embarrass Zhao Churan.
"Okay!" Xia Qingchen said lightly, completely ignoring the coldness in the eyes of Xia Qilin and the young man.
"Let's go!"
Led by Xia Qilin, they came to the most prosperous center of Yungu City, a tall attic with magnificent grandeur and beautiful women.
"Immortal Pavilion?" Of course, Zhao Churan knew that there was a world-famous Immortal Pavilion in Yungu City.
Even in the distant imperial capital, you can hear the rumors of the Immortal Pavilion.
She glanced sideways at Xia Qilin, and sighed in her heart, the eldest cousin's family is really soaring, and even the Immortal Pavilion can afford it.
Three years ago, there was no such thing.
Looking at the silent Xia Qingchen again, she sighed again, three years have passed, and the Nanxia Mansion is still lifeless, without the slightest sign of prosperity.
They are both from Xiafu, but they don't have the same fate.
