Everyone was happy, and Xu Qi'e suddenly smiled: "Cousin, this is my sister!" ”

After saying this, he looked at Xu Qirong with envy, and everyone said yes. Only Old Madam Shen frowned, Xu Qi'e said this a little presumptuously, if she heard it in her uncle's ears, she might think that there was some unsavory affection between their cousins and sisters!

said with a straight face: "There are not many girls in our family, Brother He was brought up by me, and Sister Rong also lived with me for a while, it is serious for the brother and sister to have a good relationship. ”

Liu Shi was told that he was in his heart, and hurriedly echoed: "Not only Brother He, but also Brother He's daughter-in-law, I also feel sorry for Sister Rong." Sister Rong is the daughter of her sister-in-law, she is so smart and beautiful, our family is up and down, if there is anyone who doesn't love her, I, the second aunt, am the first to disagree. ”

Only then did everyone find out that Xu Qi'e's words were inappropriate, Xu Deng glared at Xu Qi'e fiercely with his eyes, and said with a forced smile: "This is our sister Rong's blessing, and others can't envy it." ”

Xu Qi'e realized that what she said just now was inappropriate, and her voice changed a little in fright, and she hurriedly apologized to Xu Qirong: "Sister, I didn't mean it." His eyes were full of apologies.

Xu Qirong smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay." Then he turned to Liu, Xu Deng and the others, "You guys are praising me in a different way!" I'm not as modest as other little ladies, pushing back and forth, and I'll just accept all your compliments? ”

Jin pursed his lips and smiled: "Look at her like that, she is not more restrained and stable after she is married!" ”

The eldest lady He said: "I'm embarrassed to talk about others." I have been married for so many years, and my children will run away chasing the sugar gourd seller all over the street, and they are not the same as me and your grandmother every day! ”

Jin smiled: "I'm a colorful dress entertainer!" ”

The crowd laughed again.

As he spoke. Suddenly, I saw Zhuyun coming in from outside, saluted everyone, and then said to Mrs. Shen: "Old lady, my uncle is accompanying our old man to talk about the righteous army, and my uncle retreated, let the maid come over to find Miss Biao, and let Miss Biao go to the pavilion to accompany him to play a game of chess." ”

My daughter just got back to the door. When Xu Tingyuan entered the door, he wanted to ask her how she was doing, but with so many people around, he was afraid that Sister Rong would be embarrassed by asking. That's why I found an excuse to play chess at this time.

Old Madam Shen and the others understood in their hearts, and said to Xu Qirong: "Your father is worried about you these days, worried about the family, and he hasn't even eaten well. You'll see him later. Talk to him well, and let him be relieved. ”

Xu Qirong hummed, and then followed Zhuyun out.

However, the Jin family urged narrowness, and at this time reminded Zhuyun: "You can't call Miss Table in the future, remember to call Grandma Huasan!" ”

Zhuyun responded: "The servant knows." ”

Xu Qirong paused, ignored the joke, pulled Zhuyun a hand, and walked quickly.

By the time of the gazebo. Xu Tingyuan was pinching the Moyu chess pieces to play chess, and saw Xu Qirong coming. He just glanced at her and continued to play chess, with a teapot and an empty cup on the high table next to her.

Xu Qirong pursed her lips and smiled, is her father embarrassed?

stepped forward and personally poured a cup of warm tea for Xu Tingyuan, handed it to Xu Tingyuan, and said with a smile: "Daddy, please drink tea!" ”

Xu Tingyuan couldn't hold back, a smile appeared on his face, and the chess pieces in his hand were lost, disrupting the chess game that had been almost set up before, and while taking the tea cup, he sighed with Xu Qirong in his mouth: "This tea is a cup of tea, it will be less than a cup, and it will be cheap and Yude in the future!" ”

Xu Qirong pursed his lips: "Daddy wants to drink tea, and my daughter has to rush to make tea for Daddy wherever she is." Then he asked, "Why does Daddy call him Yude?" ”

Xu Tingyuan glanced at Xu Qirong: "Since he is my son-in-law, it is not good to call Duke De like others, and it is too rude to even call him by name and surname, and he is a wordless person." ”

Xu Qirong knew that Hua Yude had no words, and his heart was slightly sour, it was right to think about it, he had no father and mother a long time ago, and he was suppressed by the family again, and later entered the palace as a eunuch, where would someone pick up the words for him!

Then I heard Xu Tingyuan say: "Besides, you went to Beijiao, is it possible that you want to run from Beijiao to Suzhou to make tea for me?" ”

Xu Qirong raised his head and looked at Xu Tingyuan: "He told you about going to Beijiao?" ”

Xu Tingyuan nodded: "In the end, I just got married, for fear that I won't agree, and keep telling me how safe Beijiao is." Beijia is safe, so you went, wouldn't it be hateful to leave the Xu family and the Shen family in the unsafe Suzhou and Jinzhou? ’’

Xu Qirong snorted: "Did Daddy scold him?" ”

Xu Tingyuan was a little proud: "Although I haven't done anything serious in my life, I have lived a few years longer than him, and I can't see through his mind?" It must be that he needs to stay on Beijiao's side for something, and he refuses to part with you, for fear that the Shen family will be reluctant to let him go! ”

Xu Qirong was amused by Xu Tingyuan's words: "Then daddy, you should expose him on the spot!" ”

Xu Tingyuan put down the teacup in his hand and waved his hand: "I can't talk to him." ”

Then he sighed and said to Xu Qirong: "Daddy agreed to marry him, not because he had a great favor to the Xu family, but just thinking that he and the Xu family are not related to each other, and he has helped us so much. Since he is so attentive to you, he probably won't fail you, and now that he sees that you are all good, Daddy finally breathes a sigh of relief. ”

Then without waiting for Xu Qirong to speak, he said quietly: "Don't think I don't know, when I promised the Yi family to propose marriage and agree to your sister marrying Yi Tongchi, you all scolded me in your hearts!" ”

Xu Qirong smiled: "Daddy is not allowed to rely on me indiscriminately, Daddy is so good to me, when did I scold Daddy!" "His eyes are a little red, and his father always thinks about her, although sometimes he is not so thoughtful.

Naturally, she would not explain to her father that Hua Yude's help to the Hua family at the beginning was actually the instruction of Emperor Chen Qian.

turned to talk about Xu Qi'e's family affairs: "I also know that it is a little wrong for a married girl to interfere in the family affairs of my sisters, but Sister E has begged to come to me, and I can't ignore it as a sister." That Xu You's character is not very good, Sister E is still young, and she has a good appearance, so it is better to wait and talk. ”

Xu Tingyuan didn't blame Xu Qi'e for coming to Xu Qirong to chew on the root of his tongue, but asked: "I think that Xu You is excellent, he has no parents at home, and Sister E has married, so you can buy a house near our house to live next to each other, and take care of it." Where did you hear the phrase that he has a bad character? ”

Xu Qirong thought about it, and then told him about meeting Xu You at the chrysanthemum banquet, and also about Xu You's squatting sister at the door of Xu's house.

Xu Tingyuan frowned: "At that time, he was the age of the young Aimu, and it was understandable to meet the little lady he liked to take a few more looks, but it was a bit too much to stuff the letter in front of someone's house, let's take a look at this matter!" ”

Xu Qirong nodded, relieved, and completed Xu Qi'e's entrustment. (To be continued.) )
