Xu Qingfeng recalled Shen Youfu's appearance last year. When I first met, she was gentle and indifferent, and she was the daughter of the Xu family who was the most like the daughter of the Xu family among the children of the Shen family.

But later, her maids did something like that...... She didn't argue or blame herself, she just had a cold ruthlessness. also once complained to his mother, saying that he was unladylike when he met someone, and several of his subordinates were not peaceful.

is even more self-pitying and self-hurtful envy of the fifth and sixth ladies of the Shen family.

Miss Fifth couldn't get used to her and refused to let her go at all. I heard that the sixth lady who came out of the concubine gave her well-used maid to this ignorant sister again and again. That generosity is really impressive, and I remember it vividly.

But now!

The former Shen Youfu in Xu Qingfeng's mind overlapped with the smiling Shen Youfu in front of him.

Is this still a person?

Although Shen Youfu was more like their Xu family in the past, she never made people feel good.

And Xu Qingfeng is facing the current Shen Youfu, as if he is facing the spring breeze and the warm sun. The indescribable comfort, and the feeling that makes people want to be close......

Xu Qingfeng stood on the spot in a daze, clenching his fists in disbelief.

It shouldn't be like this! It must be because he suddenly heard that his grandfather's illness could be cured, so he had a good impression of the seventh cousin.

If it were any other person who told him that he could cure his grandfather's cough, he would probably be grateful to the other party, and it would be difficult to regain his disgust!

It must be so.

"Cousin? We...... Sit down and talk, shall we? Shen Youfu tilted her head and looked at Xu Qingfeng with a solemn face. Timidly said: "Cousin, don't worry too much, my grandfather will be fine, otherwise I wouldn't have just drunk some medicinal tea today, right?" ”

Shen Youfu was frightened by Xu Qingfeng's appearance.

It's not that I'm afraid of him, but I feel that the Xu family has such a big rule here, and Cousin Qingfeng is the eldest grandson...... Why is this rule worse than yourself?

First of all, I came to other people's courtyards to chat, and then I stared at people's faces in a daze when I entered the door, and now it was even more excessive, and before I could say a few words, I jumped up from the stool and clenched my fists and burst with green tendons......

What the hell is this for?

Shen Youfu reminded softly. Xu Qingfeng finally came back to his senses.

"That's right! My cousin was right. He had even forgotten what his cousin had just said, and only lowered his head to hide his panic, "That's right...... That's right. ”

"Then ask my cousin to worry a lot and supervise the subordinates as soon as possible. Prepare the pear stew with honey licorice. Baby Baby's Guarantee. This month, my grandfather will be much healthier. Shen Youfu had already moved the idea of sending off guests.

Words are not speculative for more than half a sentence. The cousin who doesn't agree with the will, there is nothing to say, not to mention that today's big cousin has a trace of eccentricity from beginning to end.

Shen Youfu didn't dare to say anything more to him.

Xu Qingfeng had already come back to his senses at this time. Thinking of the faux pas just now, he didn't dare to stay for a long time. Seeing that Shen Youfu's words could be used as a step down, he got up and said goodbye, saying that he was going to urge his subordinates to run errands.

Xu Qingfeng left in a very hurry, and even the very well-behaved subordinates of the Xu family noticed that the eldest young master was different from usual today.

But he didn't care about the side eyes of others at all, and walked all the way out of Lingxiao Courtyard as fast as he could, and then walked through the garden verandah, all the way back to his Hanjiang Courtyard......

The second young master, Xu Qinghe, saw his brother come back and showed a smile.

"Big brother, look, I have already laid out the endgame of the monk's idle arrangement, and I am waiting for you to come back and take a closer look!"

The second young master was very understanding, he could see at a glance that the eldest brother's face was wrong, and he thought that he had encountered something unpleasant from his aunt. So I quickly diverted the topic. Prepare to play chess with your brother again later, and then take your time.

Xu Qingfeng blinked hard, as if he wanted to forget something. Looking at his brother's smiling face and the long-coveted endgame on the table, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It's like going from the clouds back to the ground.

He breathed a sigh of relief and sat down at the chess table. I tried not to think about my cousin's affairs, and only concentrated on figuring out "Zhai Monk Idle Knitting".

The two brothers of the Xu family's big house usually ponder chess games in their leisure time, so after a while, the eldest young master Xu Qingfeng entered the state, and the two of them divided five by two, and dismantled the endgame one by one.

He was about to shout, but he only heard Xu Qinghe ask "carelessly": "Big brother just went to find my aunt, what did my aunt say?" ”

Xu Qingfeng's hand holding the chess piece froze!

…… Go to my aunt?

That's right! I was going to find my aunt just now! And then?

I met the Shen family cooking in the Lingxiao Courtyard, so I planned to say that they were not in accordance with the rules.

And then what?

Xu Qingfeng has no intention of playing chess at all!

"I'm not going down today, I'll go to Lingxiao Courtyard again!" After Xu Qingfeng finished speaking, he pulled his legs and left.

What's going on? Xu Qinghe didn't expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from his brother, and he quickly jumped up to stop him: "What is the big brother talking nonsense?" What time is this? What are you going to do over there? ”

When Xu Qingfeng went to Lingxiao Courtyard just now, it was already close to evening. After coming back, I played chess for so long.

At this time, it is getting late, and it is about to turn on the lights.

Xu Qingfeng was stopped by his younger brother like this, and only then did he see the dark sky outside. He struck twice on his forehead: "Then I'll go back tomorrow." ”

――――

Shen Youfu sent away the great god Xu Qingfeng, and she didn't have any appetite for a while.

After instructing Mama Xu and Lu'er to clean up the leftovers, she sat on the chair alone, looked at the scenery outside and said confusedly: "What do you think, what is the etiquette of the eldest young master?" How do I feel...... Why not me? ”

Shen Youfu had this question just now, and at this time, no one finally asked!

Mama Xu and Lu'er glanced at each other, and they felt the same way! This eldest young master, he is so inexplicable, he is still picking and choosing from others, Pu'er fell into his hands, maybe he was wronged?

Anyway, now, if my cousin wants to sell any of them, they won't accept it!

That night, the three of them fell asleep with this kind of "disobedience", and the next morning, Shen Youfu thought about it and felt that her eldest cousin was too unreliable. So he led Lu'er to the Qide Courtyard where his grandfather was.

Qideyuan is not where my grandfather lived, it is more like a miniature school.

It was the first time Shen Youfu had seen such a courtyard.

The bluestone paving road has rockery and water pavilions. On both sides are large houses. These houses have no walls or doors, as if a roof was supported by several large pillars.

The four sides are made of bamboo curtains. In this way, you can see each other inside and outside.

In such a large house, there are some futons on the ground, as well as a few dwarfs for people to learn calligraphy and painting.

Shen Youfu passed by here all the way, and the appearance of her grandfather teaching Jinglun here appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but have more respect in her heart.

Old lady Shen Xu Ang was very surprised by Shen Youfu's request to see her.

He knew that he was not a loving elder, and that most of his relationships with his children and grandchildren, like teachers and students, were based on guiding the scriptures.

Because of this, there are few juniors who will bother him.

He, the granddaughter, didn't go to the inner courtyard to talk to his aunts and sisters, but what did she come to him for?

Old Lady Shen didn't want to see it, but as soon as she looked up, she saw the small porcelain urn on the bookshelf.

It was filled with the licorice honey that Shen Youfu had said earlier.

…… If you take someone else's, it's hard to say that you can't see it...... The old lady put down the pen and paper scroll in his hand and nodded to his subordinates.

When Shen Youfu was invited in, she also inadvertently saw the porcelain vase at a glance.

However, her gaze did not stay on it for too long, but immediately followed the rules and performed the etiquette neatly.

The old lady likes her children and grandchildren to be polite, and when she sees Shen Youfu like this, she is quite satisfied. He asked in a deep voice, "What is the matter with you?" ”

Of course, Shen Youfu didn't come to ask about any esoteric pedantry. She just wanted to ask, if she asked the eldest young master to bring it yesterday, did that guy bring it?

"Back to my grandfather's words, Youfu asked my eldest cousin to tell you yesterday - Sichuan fritillary stewed pears, plus loquat snow clams boiled into paste, as a daily soup...... I wonder if my eldest cousin has been here? ”

After Shen Youfu asked this, she actually already knew the answer.

Seeing the old lady's dazed face and the appearance that she had never heard of at all, Shen Youfu knew that she hadn't looked away yesterday! The eldest prince was soulless yesterday, and the fugue was too empty.

Youfu was worried that her eldest cousin would have a lot of things to do, so she forgot about it. Or maybe he didn't understand these things and couldn't say it clearly, so he bothered again. Shen Youfu's words were kind, just like talking to the old lady in the Shen Mansion, "If your grandfather is not busy, it is better to assign a subordinate who pours tea and water to Youfu, and Youfu can rest assured by telling him again." ”

Old Lady Xu looked at Shen Youfu, but she was a little surprised in her heart.

Shen Youfu's words seem to be both to sue Xu Qingfeng and to ask for credit.

But the words came out of her mouth, somehow, and it felt like it wasn't. But she really really wants to tell her subordinates to make soup in order to rest assured.

This kind of little daughter's intimacy is really uncommon in Xu's mansion.

The old lady thought about it, and raised her hand outside to call a maid in: "You go and learn how to make zuò soup with Miss Biao." ”

The maids around the old lady are different from ordinary maids. Following the old lady here, I learned a lot of chess, calligraphy and painting. It's just that she has always been in charge of the chores here in Qideyuan, but she has never learned to make soup.

But this was the old lady's order, and the servant respectfully agreed. But the look of surprise on his face could not be hidden.

Shen Youfu didn't have anything else to do, she just planned to come over and say something, but she didn't want the old lady to give her a person directly.

Now I can only teach it by hand.

Shen Youfu withdrew with her servant: "What's your name?" ”

"Slave Huaiqiu, I've seen Miss Cousin." (To be continued......)
