At three o'clock, before dawn, Ziye took his sword and went to the back garden, he had the habit of practicing martial arts early in the morning since he was a child, and he had to practice for an hour every day, and he would not feel comfortable if he didn't practice on any day.

The backyard of the Ji Mansion is murmuring, the environment is quiet, and the flowers and plants are lush. The fog has not yet dissipated in the early morning, the morning dew is heavy, and the cool breeze hits, because he is only wearing a thin layer of clothes, Ziye can't help but shiver. Walking around the garden, he saw a flat and open field, surrounded by green shade, a burst of insects and birds, surrounded by flowers, and no one around, so he finally asked him to find a good place.

I saw that the hands and feet were smart, the feet were thick, the bow frame was upright, a set of Qingyan boxing that was both rigid and soft, and both internal and external cultivation was beaten down, and there was a thin sweat in the cold morning. Ziye gently picked up the green sheath sword on the ground, held it firmly in his hand, and the sword blade was skillful and strong, like the strength of the pine, like the speed of the wind, and the swordsmanship of the pine wind was played beautifully. He practiced this set of swordsmanship for a month, and finally made some progress, and this time he will go back to make his father impressed.

When he was about to put the sword back into its sheath, a woman's delicate voice sounded on the side: "Childe, this sword is really good." ”

Ziye didn't expect that there were still people in this flower garden, this sword practice was the most taboo distraction, and with a deviation of the wrist, the sword that was supposed to be sheathed flew straight towards the people on the side.

"Girl, be careful!"

Jingzhu had never encountered this situation, only to see a blue light long sword stabbing towards her quickly, the tip of the sword with a cold light, and she couldn't dodge, she hurriedly took a few steps back, stepped on the tail of her skirt and hooked her legs, closed her eyes, and sat straight on the ground, grinning in pain for a while.

Fortunately, Ziye reacted quickly, and caught the deviating green sheath sword with one leap.

Jingzhu rubbed her legs and couldn't stand up, sat on the ground with her buttocks, looking very embarrassed, and regretted that she had just sent the maid away. She looked up at the man in front of her, she took off her shirt and wore only a pair of ochre trousers, beads of sweat rolled down her face, her strong chest was panting, and she looked anxious, and she couldn't help blushing when she saw a man like this for the first time.

"Do you want to see if I've been sitting like this?" Jingzhu scolded him, muttering in her heart that she was really a stupid papaya who practiced martial arts.

Ziye has never encountered this situation, except for his mother, even women are rare around him, where do you think that there is a girl hiding behind the grass. I saw this girl sitting on the ground, looking innocent and aggrieved, a pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be angry and angry, her small mouth was slightly pouted, and a ray of sunshine from the morning sun penetrated through the clouds, just sprinkled on her, her face was crimson, and she felt inexplicably a little cute.

He put down his sword, and he didn't think of too many things that were out of line, so he stepped forward and helped Jingzhu who was sitting on the ground.

"I am not good at practicing martial arts, so I frightened you, girl." Ziye bowed and bowed. can appear in this garden, and at such an age, except for the maid is a young lady.

"I heard my mother say that my cousin came to the house yesterday and brought a cousin who was a general, but you?" Sister Zhu recognizes Mrs. Ji as her godmother, and it is not wrong to call her mother.

Liu Ziye's face turned red, nodded, looked at the girl in front of him, and heard her call Mrs. Ji's mother, it must be the young lady of the Ji family, ": It is below. I wanted to find a quiet place to practice martial arts, but I didn't expect to disturb the girl, I was offended. Ziye was born in the army, how could he talk to the girl, and before he said a word, his dark face flushed.

Jingzhu saw Liu Gongzi like this, and also smiled, "It's all my fault, your place of practice is not far from my cool little pavilion, I heard the sound early in the morning and came over, only to blame the woman in my house for not seeing, and disturbed Liu Gongzi to practice the sword." ”

Ziye shook his head and smiled, he didn't know how to answer for a while, his eyes were facing each other, and he didn't say anything for a while.

On the other side, the little maid next to Sister Zhu hugged a thin shawl and looked for her, "Sister Zhu, are you inside?" ”

Jingzhu was startled, looked outside the flowers, and planned to pick up the hem of her skirt and turn around and go out. Unexpectedly, just after breaking her foot, she almost couldn't stand in this hurry, but fortunately, Ziye's eyes were quick, he reached out to help, and held her waist casually. Jingzhu was stunned for a moment, her face was flushed, and then she reflected, how can she think so much at this time, she has to leave quickly, if she is seen, she can't tell it with ten mouths, and she has to be named a person who is not self-chaste and does not love herself, and the other party is still the son-in-law of the Ji family.

The little girl heard the sound of bauhinia flowers from behind, and hurriedly ran over on the stone road, and what she saw was the scene of the Liu family's son holding Sister Zhu'er, and she was stupid for a while. didn't care about the thin cloak that fell on the ground, and hurriedly ran over, so anxious that tears were about to fall, pointing to Ziye and asking, "Why is there a man here?" "Look at Sister Zhu in a panic again": You ...... You are ......."

Jingzhu hurriedly pushed Ziye's hand, glanced at the verdant, limped herself, and walked out quickly. Qingcui didn't know what to do, and only muttered, this is a bad thing......

Ziye looked at the departing Jingzhu, and thought back to the girl's fragrant figure, and the Miss Ji family was so old, there must be no doubt that she was the second girl who said goodbye to her.

Mrs. Yu knelt in the front hall of Moyun Hall and kowtowed vigorously to plead guilty. Jingzhu, this little girl, is really a big deal, but she blames herself for being negligent for a while. The little girl on the side only lay on the ground, and she didn't dare to come out.

Mrs. Ji's face was gloomy, and her face was a little ugly. Mrs. Ji was also in a hurry when she heard the matter, and the two aunts hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the old lady, saying that the old lady was not in a hurry. The old lady passed by Jingzhu, glanced at her, and said in a deep voice, "How did you go there?" “

It was the flower garden in the inner garden, so she naturally went there, Jingzhu knew that the old lady meant to ask her, since she knew that Liu Gongzi was practicing martial arts in it, how could she still go in. She sniffed aggrievedly and said with a cry: "I didn't know that the son of the Liu family was inside, but I walked around and got there." Jingzhu's eyes flickered, thinking about how to say it.

When Mrs. Ji heard her say this, she only snorted, how could she not hear such a loud sound from practicing martial arts? Besides, who would go to the flower garden early in the morning? It must not be a good one. "It's all to blame for the old slave who didn't take a good look at Sister Zhu'er, so she just broke in unruly, Liu Gongzi's martial arts practitioners naturally don't have so many rules that are harmful to men and women, but fortunately, I saw them...... There are not many of their subordinates. Mrs. Yu couldn't say anything about them hugging each other, she just felt ashamed. Liu Gongzi practiced martial arts, and two or three people who got up in the morning to sweep the floor heard it, but they didn't know if they didn't see Sister Zhu enter the flower garden, if this matter spread, it was a big scandal, how could Mrs. Ji rest assured that the second sister would marry her? "It was Liu Gongzi who helped me when he saw that I couldn't stand firmly, but I didn't do anything." Jingzhu thought about meeting this Liu Gongzi at first, but this does not mean that she will blatantly hook up. Hearing Mrs. Yu say this, everyone's expression only felt like being stripped of their clothes in public and losing their face, but they also broke the jar and broke it. Yes, she can't get used to seeing the second sister always being high, what do you want, finding a husband or one in a hundred, she consciously doesn't have a bad Ji family girl anywhere, she wants to have a good look, she has a figure, she has studied a few years of hard work, but she is pitiful and has no parents, how can there be such an unfair thing in the world, how can she let the second sister of the Ji family get anything? Even if she can't get it, it's okay for someone else, this is what God owes her.

The old lady was so angry, it was a mistake to enter the flower garden, and it was a big mistake not to leave when she saw a man talking, how could the Ji family have such a woman, Meng Lang did not avoid suspicion.

In the wing room in the front yard, Mrs. Liu pointed to her eldest son and reproached, "This is two days out, what kind of martial arts are you practicing, if you are not comfortable, you can practice in your own room, why do you run to the inner garden?" "This yard is small and I was afraid of disturbing the Ji family next door, so I looked for it, and I didn't know that the rules of the Ji family were so big." I only thought she was the second girl of the Ji family when she spoke and her age, but I didn't know that there was an outsider. Ziye also looked aggrieved, where could he have thought that there was a girl who came to take refuge.

Mrs. Liu was angry and helpless, this Jingzhu girl has no father or mother, no family background, she has also seen people, it is not bad, but it is far away from the second girl of the Ji family. Now that this is happening, I am afraid that the marriage between the two families is hanging.

"The innocence of the girl's family is fate, and you can't talk to a strange man, let alone you hugged her?" The Zhao family's style is not as strict as the Ji family, but they also know that this girl's reputation is more important than life.

"What can I do? Do you want me to marry her? "I also said that, this man also hugged him, according to my mother, it is not to be married.

Zhao was angry with this stupid son, and began to complain about his husband, teaching his son to only know how to play with knives and swords all day long and not know the world, he chose for his son for so long, did he finally marry a small orphan girl to go back? ": What else can I do, just bite the bullet and act as if it didn't happen. Do you really want to marry someone else?"

After eating a slap of chestnuts, Ziye muttered that he would marry someone else, and Miss Jingzhu was also very good.

Zhao was choked and speechless.

Because the guests were still there, it was an ugly thing, and Mrs. Ji didn't want to make a big fuss, so she only asked someone to send Sister Zhu back to the cool pavilion first. Jingzhu still brought pear blossoms and rain before leaving, but this time she couldn't provoke anyone's pity. With this, Mrs. Ji always had a layer of hiccups in her heart, and she couldn't go up or down, and she felt uncomfortable. However, this luncheon should still be eaten, after all, people say that they come to visit relatives, and they still have to go to the noodles. Only the marriage of these two sisters is not necessarily, it depends on how the Zhao family chooses, Jingzhu's matter is not on the table, and it is not easy to mention it on the side of the family.

Yingxiu tossed for an hour in the morning, and was finally satisfied with the bronze mirror. "Second sister, you are finally well, this shirt has been changed for seven or eight sets, and this purple red shows your skin color the most." The tea in front of Yingning's table has bottomed out, the two of them slept late last night, and the second girl got up early in the morning today to toss, and she didn't see sleepiness at all. "Sister, don't laugh at me, I'm giving our parents face, don't be looked down upon. Are you wearing a little plain? "This is what you look at, not me, I dress plainly to show you." Second sister, you toss early in the morning, this is because I am afraid that the son of the Liu family will not look down on you. Hearing the seventh sister say this, the second girl was pierced at once, and her face turned red.

Ying Ning didn't tease anymore, and said: "As far as my sister's appearance as a fairy, if he can't look at it, he is really blind, and he doesn't marry." Let's hurry over, don't make my mother wait for a long time. Yingxiu also made sense when she heard it.

So the two girls took the four maids and went out.

In the hall, the Yang family and the Zhao family were talking awkwardly, the Ji family brother and the Liu family brother sat down, and several people chatted very warmly, the third son of the Ji family is a martial artist, and finally met a young deputy general, so naturally there are endless words.

The maid outside came to report, saying that the second sister and the seventh sister were coming.

There was an instant silence in the room. Liu Ergongzi saw that the eldest brother was full of nervousness, and secretly laughed, this eldest brother has never seen a girl, and when he sees one, he will be bluffed.

Mrs. Liu saw two dignified women, slowly crossed the threshold, and gently moved the lotus into the hall. Blessed to her, respectfully greeted her, heard the words that did not need to be polite, and sat down generously, and nodded to the two brothers, the eyebrows and eyes drooped slightly, not frivolous, sure enough, everyone is a faction, can live a house, I really can't find a little mistake, it's a pity.

One is bright and rich, the other is plain and refined, each has its own merits, only the seventh girl who wears apricot and white pear and fir is young, but it is really long, Zimo was still laughing at the eldest brother just now, and he was stupid at this time, and when he saw that the seventh girl Ji on the other side had no intention of looking over, he smiled back.

How could Ziye have thought that the second girl of the Ji family looked so beautiful and natural, with a graceful demeanor, the whole person was generous and slightly shy from coming in to sitting, he was really single-sighted, rarely seen a woman in the world, and it was strange that his mother said that the second girl of the Ji family was not comparable to Jingzhu, and Ziye only remembered Jingzhu's pair of Danfeng eyes and couldn't remember anything else. He didn't dare to look at the female seat, so he could only speak to the son of the Ji family. It's all about what happened in the morning, so don't have any accidents.

As soon as Yingxiu entered the door, she noticed the man in the seat, and the flush on her face never went down. People who practice martial arts are different, with a strong body and broad eyebrows, and the eldest brother on the side is much thinner than him. Is he the man who will be at his pillow? Speaking like a real person, my face became redder and redder when I thought about it.

At this time, Yan Hong came to report that the old lady had read the story and came, and the fifth and sixth girls came together.

As soon as Yingxue Yingyao came in, her eyes didn't aim anywhere, and she stood obediently behind her aunt after blessing the gift. Zhao Shi nodded straightly, and sighed that the girls of the Ji family are all well-educated, and each one has rules than the other.

The son-in-law of the Liu family saw this aunt for the first time in many years, so he naturally had to kowtow.

Mrs. Ji smiled, told her two grandnephews to get up quickly, and asked the maid to serve tea again. Although Mrs. Ji had a smile on her face, her face was a little unsightly, and Mrs. Liu knew that it was a big crime in the eyes of Mrs. Ji, and even the reputation of the girl of the Ji family would be affected. But she can't be dumb and eat coptis to let her son marry Jingzhu girl, this matter really has to think about it, if she miscalculates, not only will she lose a good daughter-in-law, but even the relative of the Ji family will be lost.

Everyone has their own thoughts, just waiting for Master Ji to come down and have lunch together.
