Sister Qiao'er's first birthday banquet was placed in the side hall of Changhetang. Ye Sheng and Jiang Shi sat on the top with a smile, and Ye Chengli and Ye Chengren were also there. In addition, Ye Yuanwei and a cousin and a female dependent, a room full of people.

It's still early, and relatives and friends haven't arrived yet. If relatives and friends are here, I am afraid that the main hall of this large university will be too crowded.

Ye Qinglan stood beside Ye Qingning, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart. Changyuan Bofu is really prosperous! In contrast, the Dingguo Mansion is a little deserted......

It's strange, I said that I didn't want to take care of the Yu brothers and sisters, why did my thoughts accidentally turn to them again?

Ye Qinglan muttered in her heart, and hurriedly pulled her thoughts back.

On this day, Sister Qiao is naturally the protagonist who still refuses to let go.

Sister Qiao'er was born cute, and today she was carefully dressed up and cleaned up, with a colorful chrome glass collar around her neck, and a few delicate gold bells hanging on her white and tender little hands and feet.

When Cui Wan came out with Sister Qiao'er in her arms, Ye Qingning, Ye Qinglan and others surrounded her. Sister Qiao was a little scared, her big round eyes looked around everyone's faces, and then buried her head in Cui Wan's arms and refused to look up again.

Ye Qingning was rarely interested, and deliberately leaned over and kissed Sister Qiao'er. Sister Qiao blinked her eyes wide, and then flattened her small mouth, crying very facelessly.

Cui Wan hurriedly hugged Sister Qiao'er aside and coaxed her.

Ye Qingrou gloated and smiled: "Sixth cousin, why doesn't Sister Qiao even refuse to get close to you, your own aunt." ”

Ye Qingning's vitriolic and meanness immediately reappeared in the rivers and lakes, and he snorted lightly and said: "I am naturally not as likable as my eighth cousin, and I am generous and generous. If I should have taken a gold ingot and put it in front of Sister Qiao'er just now, maybe she would be happy for me to be close to her. "There is a maid and a woman in Uncle Changyuan's mansion, who hasn't received Ye Qingrou's reward?

Ye Qingrou's face flushed slightly, and she gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart. But the elders in the mansion were all present, if she and Ye Qingning were-for-tat. It's not beautiful. I had to press this sulking breath alive.

Zheng glanced at Ye Qingning without a trace, suggesting that she should not go too far.

It's all up and down in the house! If Ye Qingrou really can't get off the stage, the Li family will definitely be unhappy. When the time comes, it will not be very wonderful to make trouble in front of the Jiang family.

Ye Qingning pursed his lips invisibly, and finally stopped his mouth.

After a while, relatives and friends came one after another. Zheng Guogong's Mansion was the first to come, and after Zheng Yun and his wife led Zheng Junyan and Zheng Min's brothers and sisters in, almost everyone's eyes glanced at Ye Qingning.

Although it has not been officially decided, Zheng Junyan and Ye Qingning's family affairs have already reached a verbal agreement. This is the habit of this time. The two can also be regarded as an unmarried couple.

Ye Qingning lowered his head, avoiding everyone's curious gaze. Although she has accepted the fact that she is about to marry Zheng Junyan, she really can't have much joy in her heart. I can't squeeze out a shy expression.

Zheng Junyan quickly glanced at Ye Qingning, and then looked away.

This pair of young men and women are extremely talented and beautiful in the eyes of others. But who can know that the two actually have their own love, and what they really like is not each other at all?

When Zheng saw his brother and sister-in-law coming, he was naturally happy and immediately greeted him. Ye Qingning didn't want to go over. But Zheng slowed down and looked back at her again. Ye Qingning had to cheer up and reluctantly followed.

Ye Qinglan naturally didn't follow cheekily, but her eyes followed the past.

After a distance, I couldn't hear what Zheng and the others were saying, and they were all polite words. However, the expressions of Ye Qingning and Zheng Junyan are quite interesting.

"How is my cousin doing?" Zheng Junyan asked dryly.

Ye Qingning smiled reservedly: "Thank you cousin for your concern." I'm fine. And then, there was no more to it. The two of them glanced at each other, both of them feeling a little unconsciously embarrassed. They quickly looked away.

In the eyes of Mrs. Xu and Zheng, they only thought that this was a shy expression of the two young men and women. I couldn't help but exchange a tacit smile.

Just then, another guest arrived. This time, it was the British Gong Zhang Yuan and his wife. Zhang Yue stood beside his mother Xu, with a delicate face. The corners of his lips are smiling, and he is generous.

Ye Qinglan has a good impression of this girl. He nodded and smiled at her. Zhang Yue smiled politely.

Ye Sheng saw Zhang Yuan and his wife, and took the initiative to get up to greet them. Jiang's smile stiffened slightly, so he had to stand up together and say a few words of greeting.

Although Jiang's face was full of kind and kind smiles. However, if you look closely, you will notice that the smile on her face is slightly perfunctory. Zhang's death has been many years, and Jiang's continuation is naturally not happy to see Zhang's mother's family.

Zhang Yuan and Xu obviously didn't have a good impression of Jiang, and their expressions were very cold.

Next, people from the Ye clan also came. As Ye Qinglan expected, the main hall was a little crowded, the elders were sitting, and everyone else could only stand. However, there are also advantages to having more people, and the laughter is endless, not to mention how lively it is.

After a while, Mrs. Zheng also came. Ye Qinglan's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and she reflexively looked behind Mrs. Zheng.

There is no Gu Xinian! That's great! Ye Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, and when she looked at it again, she was stunned again. Gu Xiyu didn't even come......

Although Gu Xiyu rarely attends such occasions, didn't Gu Xiyu tell her before that she would come over? Why didn't you come today? Could it be that her autism has become strict again?

The more Ye Qinglan thought about it, the more uneasy she became. Taking advantage of the free time between Mrs. Zheng and the Zheng family to come to an end, Ying Ying gave a salute: "I've seen my aunt." ”

Mrs. Zheng nodded with a smile, and her tone was as kind as ever: "There is no you in the house, but it is much more deserted." If you have time in the future, you may wish to walk around more. Yu'er often talks about you! ”

Ye Qinglan followed her words and said, "By the way, why didn't Cousin Xiyu come today?" ”

Madame Zheng sighed, "She was going to come with me. However, Xi Nian has suffered some cold air in the past few days, and his body is not very comfortable. Yu'er stayed behind to take care of him, so she didn't follow. ”

Feeling sick from the cold?

Ye Qinglan secretly sneered in her heart. Gu Xinian's sick life is so "clever"! Hmph, ten of you are pretending to be sick. Gu Xiyu has always been soft-hearted, seeing that he is sick, he will naturally not go out of the house again, nor will he meet her again. In order to keep Gu Xiyu away from her, Gu Xinian really spent a lot of thought.

Although she thought so in her heart, Ye Qinglan's face was full of concern: "Is Cousin Gu sick?" ”

Mrs. Zheng said: "It's not too strict, but you have to rest for a few days to get better." After a pause, he said: "Yu'er hesitated for a long time this morning, and wanted to follow, but she couldn't rest assured. In the end, I stayed in the house. She specially asked me to tell you that she didn't break the appointment. ”

Ye Qinglan hurriedly smiled: "It's nothing, Cousin Gu's body is important." In the future, I will have more opportunities to meet Cousin Xiyu! That being said, she knew it in her heart. Gu Xinian would never let her meet Gu Xiyu. Even if there is an opportunity, I will try my best to obstruct it as I did today.

Forget it, there's nothing to be angry about. She also planned to slowly alienate Gu Xiyu, but now it would be better to have Gu Xinian's "help".

Ye Qinglan cheered up and chatted with Mrs. Zheng for a while. Mrs. Zheng has always smiled and had an intimate attitude.

This scene fell in the eyes of everyone, and naturally it had a special meaning.

One is the noble wife of the prince of Dingguo Mansion, and the other is an insignificant little concubine of Changyuan Bofu. Obviously two people who can't be beaten by eight poles, how can they talk and laugh so affectionately?

The ladies of the Ye clan couldn't help but whisper. It's all going around the topic.

It just so happened that the Li family was on the side, listening to everyone's discussions, he interjected with a smile: "Don't underestimate Sister Lan." She had only met Miss Gu's concubine twice, and she became friends with Miss Gu. Later, Miss Gu specially invited her to come over and stay for more than 20 days. If it weren't for Sister Qiao'er's age, maybe she would continue to live. ”

When everyone heard such wonderful gossip, their ears pricked up. There are still good things, and I can't help but ask a few questions.

Li refused to say more, and only smiled faintly: "It is Sister Lan's blessing to be able to get the wife of the prince of Dingguo to look at her differently." ”

At first glance, this sounds like nothing, but when you think about it, it means a lot. The people present were all clever and transparent women in the house, and they were all masters who listened to one sentence and thought of three sentences, and they all laughed heartily when they heard the words. They all looked at Ye Qinglan.

The concubine who is out of the third room, no matter how you look at this identity, is a little embarrassing. However, this girl really has a good look. There are five or six similarities with Birong back then, but it is still superior in temperament and charm. Dressed plainly and elegantly, with calm eyes and a smile on his lips, people will have a good impression when they look at it.

But thinking of what Li said just now, everyone's good impression of Ye Qinglan couldn't help but be discounted again.

Ye Qinglan had already sensitively noticed that several women not far away were looking at her. There was curiosity, inquiry, approval and disdain in those eyes.

It's strange, she obviously didn't do anything, what are these ladies looking at her with such strange eyes?

Ye Qinglan thought about it for a while, and then understood. It was common for her and Mrs. Zheng to chat, but at this moment and now, this scene is a little eye-catching.

Thinking of this, Ye Qinglan said in a low voice: "Auntie, the sixth sister is watching me, probably looking for me for something." Excuse me. ”

Mrs. Zheng smiled and nodded. Sure enough, after Ye Qinglan walked to Ye Qingning's side, those curious eyes from before suddenly disappeared.

It's finally clean! Ye Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak to Ye Qingning in a low voice, but there was a commotion at the door.

Who's coming? Ye Qinglan looked over curiously.
