Liu Ke looked at Shi's eyes and knew that today's banquet was by no means a simple reception.

The Shi family is not only Shi Yan, a marriageable man, but also Shi Yu.

After Liu Ke thought of this, his heart was full of trouble.

But Liu Wan didn't have a premonition of the crisis, and still stood in front of Liu Ke with a smile.

"Okay, I don't have anything to prepare, you all take a girl and go out for a ride with me." Shi said to them with a smile.

Liu Wan brought Su Jin, Liu Ke brought Yu Ye, and followed the Shi family out of the second gate towards the gate of the Liu family.

At the gate of the Liu family, there were two carriages, one was a wide-body warm car with a canopy and a jade, and it was no problem to sit four or five people inside, and the other was an ordinary splendid pony carriage, which could be three or two people.

Shi Shi pulled Liu Ke with one hand and Liu Qi with the other, and said with a smile: "You sit in the big car in front with me, and let the girls go to the back car." ”

After she said this, she turned back to the people who were waiting beside her: "Leave only Mama Xin, you all get into the carriage behind." ”

Seeing this, Liu Ke couldn't help but sigh softly.

Shi didn't want her to be alone with Liu Wan.

Liu Ke couldn't help but smile coldly in her heart, could it be that after arriving at the Shi family, could she still be inseparable from herself and Liu Wan?

It's hard to do one thing, but there are ways to destroy one thing.

Liu Ke quietly followed Shi into the carriage.

Along the way, the Shi family was telling them interesting stories about his previous life in the Shi family when he was not married, and Liu Yun, who listened to it, looked up to the sky and laughed from time to time.

Shi Shi sneered slightly: "Wan'er, you are a big girl now, and you can't be as careless as before." It is necessary to have the appearance of everyone's ladies, just like just now, even if it is a funny thing, you must hold back in front of everyone, and cover your mouth and laugh lightly. Laughing like this is going to be laughed at, you see that your sister is much more stable than you, you have to learn more like her. ”

Liu Wan admired Liu Ke, but he never thought that he would become like Liu Ke.

After listening to Shi's words, he grinned and said, "I can't learn from my sister's appearance, my sister's gentleness and virtuousness are natural." That's how I was born to go straight and straight, and I can't learn if I want to. ”

"Tomorrow your teaching will be at the house, and it will be up to you to see if you can learn or not." Shi's finger lightly touched Liu Wan's forehead and smiled.

Liu Ke couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he found it so quickly, it seems that the Shi family really put a lot of effort into it.

Liu Wan's eyes widened. With a frightened look, he said: "I found the teaching grandmother so quickly, ah~ Sister, our hard days are coming." ”

Liu Yun reached out and patted Liu Ke's shoulder to make a painful look.

Liu Ke lowered his head and smiled: "Look at you like this, it's like a naughty boy in the school who has not solved the problem waiting for the old gentleman's board, how can it be so terrible to teach Mama, as long as we study hard, is it possible that Mama can still deliberately find us?" ”

"Sister, you don't know too much. When I was in the capital before, I heard people say that these grandmothers who have stayed in the palace are not only hard-hearted. And he has a bad temper, and he uses rattan to pump people's palms when he acts, how can he do a good job of teaching Mama from the beginning, we will definitely suffer this beating," Liu Wan completely lost the good mood when he came, and his expression was like a frosted eggplant.

Shi Shi saw it and smiled: "What you kid said is too exaggerated. The purpose of teaching Mama is to teach you the rules, not to make enemies with you. How can you act and hit someone, if that's the case. I'd rather have fewer rules for my own daughters, and no one dares to invite them. ”

Speaking of this, she paused and continued: "If you happen to meet a particularly stubborn and disobedient child, you may be beaten twice, but that is also to let her learn etiquette well, not for anything else, so you can rest assured that your uncle and grandmother will not spend a lot of money, please let your sisters suffer." ”

"Hear that?" Liu Ke smiled and pushed Liu Wandao.

Liu Wan stroked his chest, his expression was exaggerated as if he was the rest of his life, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, fortunately, my uncle and grandmother sued me early." ”

Liu Ke and Shi Shi heard that Liu Wan seemed to have something to say, and asked one after another, "What will happen if your uncle and grandmother don't sue you early?" ”

"Can you escape back to Boling again?" Liu Ke asked as he pretended to be surprised.

Liu Wanyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Flee back to Boling? I don't want to do such stupid things, I originally planned to scare my grandmother away with a dismount, but now that my uncle and grandmother have told me that she won't beat people for no reason, then I won't scare her. ”

"You kid is really naughty, it's time to find a powerful teacher to take care of you." Shi Shi made a ruthless look and said, "I actually want to scare the sect to lead the grandmother, but it's not the other way around." ”

Liu Wan smiled embarrassedly: "Isn't this not implemented!" As long as I teach my grandmother not to hit people, I will learn well, although this character can't be changed, but I can ensure that I pretend to be thousands of manners in front of people. ”

As she spoke, she stood up and gave Shi a salute, which made Liu Ke and Shi couldn't help but hide their faces and laugh.

Pedestrians on the road could faintly hear the laughter coming from the car.

The Shi family was a little more than five miles away from the Liu family, and they came to the gate of the Shi family after walking for less than an hour.

The little servant guarding the door of the Shi family saw the arrival of the Liu family's carriage from a distance, so he hurriedly ran in to report the news.

When the eldest old lady of the Shi family, Liu, heard that the carriage of the Liu family had arrived, she ordered her three daughters-in-law, Li, Liu, and Yao, to go out of the gate and go to the gate.

She herself took the girl's hand and went to the living room.

After the three nieces and daughters-in-law saw the second old lady of the Liu family, Shi, they hurried to salute: "Hello aunt!" ”

Shi smiled and greeted them one by one, and the ladies held hands and greeted them at the door, and Li smiled and said, "Auntie, please come inside, mother is looking forward to you when she gets up early." ”

After she finished speaking, her eyes fell on Liu Ke and Liu Yun who were following Shi Shi.

She had seen Liu Wan before, so she stepped forward and took Liu Wan's hand and said, "I haven't seen Wan'er in a year, and she is getting more and more beautiful." ”

"Hello big cousin!" Liu Wan obediently saluted the Li family.

Xiao Liu and Yao were attracted to Liu Ke first.

Xiao Liu is straightforward, and after seeing Liu Ke, he clapped his hands and praised: "We are talking about the family." Talking about how Xiu'er is, how Yao'er is, how one in a thousand, look at the one in front of you, do we still mean to say it? ”

After she finished speaking, she stepped forward and took Liu Ke's hand and said to Shi: "This is the big girl Ke'er!" Oh my God. This little face and this figure, who doesn't want to take a second look at it. ”

Yao also pulled Liu Ke and asked how old he was, what he liked to do on weekdays, and how used to it in the capital?

Liu Ke answered them one by one.

Xiao Liu and Yao praised Liu Ke for his generosity and courtesy, not like he grew up in a small place.

In this way, five or six people, together with seven or eight girls, a group of more than a dozen people, chattered and said, hugging the Shi family, and they entered the gate of the Shi family.

At this time. Liu took Shi Xiu and Shi Wei, who were not out of the cabinet, to sit in the living room and wait.

Shi Xiu is the same age as Liu Ke, he is thirteen years old this year, he is from the Li family, and he ranks fourth among the sisters of the Shi family, and he follows the Li family in appearance. Delicate and lovely, her temperament is the same as Li's, she looks supple on the outside, but she is very strong in her bones.

When Shi Yao married Ma Jun, the head of King Yan, she was only ten years old, and at that time, she was not worth Shi Yao, and felt that her sister was too stupid.

In the past, she had a good face, and she felt that only a man who was both civil and military was worthy of her.

It's just that what makes her distressed is that both civil and military are handsome, and the prince has been married. With her identity, she will never be small, even if she is a prince.

Although the third prince is good-looking, he is not literate in writing and ink, and the fourth prince is in writing and ink. But her appearance is mediocre, among the people she has seen, only Rong Yi, the prince of Chu and Rong Shuo, the prince of Yan, meet her requirements, but Rong Yi, the prince of Chu, is a drunken man, not a good person, so only Rong Shuo is the most suitable.

Although he has only met Rong Shuo twice. But Shi Xiuyanran already regarded Rong Shuo as her future husband.

Ever since she made up her mind, she's been working hard for it quietly. For this reason, he even took the initiative to ease the relationship with the third sister Shi Yao and corresponded with her on time.

Shi Wei is the daughter of Xiao Liu. I'm only eleven years old this year.

As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and the children of mice make holes, and heredity is an extremely magical thing.

Shi Wei is like Xiao Liu's on weekdays, and he is often despised by Shi Xiu.

They all knew that the two sisters of the Liu family were coming today, so they all wore their most beautiful clothes, especially the strong Shi Xiu, although they didn't want to compete with them, but they couldn't be compared to people from small places.

Not long after, a house slave came to report that Shi and the others had entered the gate and were walking towards the second gate.

After Shi Xiu heard this, he stood up first, tidied up the clothes on his body, and reached out to carry Shi Wei out of the living room behind his grandmother Liu.

When they arrived at the second gate, the second old lady of the Liu family, Shi Shi and others, were almost outside the second gate.

Liu Ke silently lowered her head and followed behind Shi's, Ren Xiao Liu and Yao's couldn't stop whispering in her ears, she only lowered her head and pursed her lips and smiled, so as not to respond to all changes.

They only thought that Liu Ke was a little restrained because of the first meeting, and seeing that Liu Ke had not spoken, Xiao Liu patted Li's shoulder and said: "Sister-in-law, only your Shi Yu is marriageable, there is a good one in front of you, you are not in a hurry." ”

Xiao Liu's words were too explicit, which made Liu Ke feel disgusted, and even Shi just glanced at her with a light smile.

After looking at Shi's, Li said: "You guard the children and don't talk nonsense, you look at your aunt's distress for Ke'er, where it is our family's turn, how many royal relatives and noble aunts may not feel worthy of Ke'er." ”

Before Shi could reply, the eldest lady of the Shi family, Liu, greeted her, stepped forward and took Shi's hand affectionately and did not let go, and said affectionately: "This year, my sister-in-law did not celebrate the New Year in the capital, I still feel as if there are many people missing, and the children don't know what to do in the third year of junior high school, or I let them still go to the house for a while, although I can't see you, things still have to be delivered." ”

Shi replied with a smile: "I saw things as soon as I came back, and it was hard for the children to think about it." It's just that the eldest sister-in-law said this, as if my sister only recognizes things and doesn't recognize people. ”

When Liu heard this, he pretended to be disgusted and said: "Who said this, my sister has always recognized things and people." After saying that, everyone present couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, that's a joke. You don't celebrate the New Year in the capital, we all think of you as true. Liu Shi held Shi's hand and walked forward with a smile, "I didn't entertain you in the new year, today I specially let someone slaughter a new deer that has been raised for two years, and we will eat venison today." ”

They spoke at the same time. Li led Liu Ke and Liu Yun to meet Shi Xiu and Shi Wei.

Liu Wan is known to them, so the Li family pulled Liu Ke and said: "This is the eldest lady of your Liu family, the eldest sister of Wan'er's mother's compatriots, the same age as Xiu'er, I don't know which of you is older and who is younger, how to call it?" ”

When asked, Liu Ke was born in March. Shi Xiu's birthday was in June, so Liu Ke was the eldest of them, so Shi Xiu and Shi Wei called Liu Ke "big cousin" together.

Liu Ke had long known that the Shi family had such two cousins, so he prepared gifts for them in advance, and one of them gave a begonia gold silk sachet embroidered by Liu Qing as a meeting gift.

After meeting Liu Ke. Shi Wei also gave it back, just blindly claiming envy.

Shi Xiu seemed to have been hit hard.

The Liu Ke in front of her made her a little unbelievable that there was such a beautiful person in the world.

What would happen if she was seen by Rong Shuo, would Rong Shuo still be able to see her?

Although there is a certain gap between the Liu family and the Shi family, Liu Jialu is also one of the ministers of the Zhu Kingdom in the court, and it is not impossible to marry King Yan.

Shi Xiu thought about these things along the way, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

I didn't even hear the words of my grandmother Liu.

When he arrived at the door of the living room, Liu saw that Shi Xiu was stunned, completely lacking his previous cleverness. Then he turned back to Shi Xiu and said, "Xiu'er, there are foreign visitors visiting today, so your brothers don't have to go to the school today." Come to meet the old lady of the Liu family, I didn't kowtow during the New Year, and now let's make up for it together. ”

Shi Xiu was immersed in his own thoughts along the way, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.

I didn't even hear the words of my grandmother Liu.

Seeing that she was still with her head down, Liu raised her voice again and said, "Xiu'er, what are you thinking?" ”

"Ahh What did grandmother command? Shi Xiu came back to his senses at this time and hurriedly stepped forward.

Seeing this, Liu felt uncomfortable. Because there were outsiders around, it was difficult to say anything about her, so she said, "You go and find your brothers yourself." Let them come and kowtow to the second old lady of the Liu family. ”

Shi Xiu didn't understand why she was asked to do this, but when she saw that her grandmother was unhappy, she hurried to go.

After entering the meeting room, everyone sat down one by one.

Liu Ke and Liu Xuan saluted the elders of the Shi family such as the Liu family again.

Liu and others also gave Liu Ke and Liu Wan a meeting gift.

After Shi Xiu left the living room, he walked towards the front yard.

At this time, only Shi Yu and Shi Min were at home, and Shi Hui and Shi Min both went to Guozijian.

Shi Yu had long heard that the sisters of the Liu family were coming today.

When he was reading before, he read the book "Dancing like a frightening dragon, graceful like a dragon." Rong Yao Qiu Ju, Hua Mao Chun Song", after reaching the marriageable age, he dreamed of finding such a woman as a wife.

He has seen Liu Wan many times, and he likes her sweetness and amiability very much, although Liu Wan does not lose her gentle and virtuous temperament, but he is confident that he will transform Liu Wan into a beauty in his heart in the future.

At this time, he was killing time fighting with Shi Xuan, and when he saw Shi Xiu walking in, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Xiu'er, but the old aunt of the Liu family is here?" ”

Seeing Shi Yu's happy face, Shi Xiu suddenly had a plan in his heart, and said with a smile: "No, I came to inform you on purpose, grandmother asked the two of you to go to the living room to salute the old aunt." ”

After she said this, she pretended to mysteriously put her mouth into Shi Xiu's ear and whispered: "You haven't seen Liu Ke, the eldest cousin of the Liu family, she is the same year as me, and the one you gave birth to is really the 'fluttering like a frightening dragon' that you often hang on your lips, I guarantee that after you have seen it, you don't want to see other women in this life." ”

Shi Yu was looking forward to seeing Liu Xuan, but everyone has a love for beauty, and after listening to Shi Xiu's words, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Xiu'er, what you said is true, the cousin of the Liu family is really so good-looking?" ”

Shi Xiu couldn't see his brother's appearance, and said disdainfully: "I can't lie to you, I don't believe that I look at it, don't blame my sister for not reminding you, if you miss this village, there will be no such shop." ”

Shi Ying is only nine years old this year, but he has already passed through personnel, and after listening to the conversation between their brother and sister, he said: "How can a sister say such a thing to her brother, I think Sister Xiu was stimulated by the cousin of the Liu family." ”

"Children don't talk nonsense. What did she stimulate me," Shi Xiu said, patting Shi Yu on the head, and then said, "Why don't you hurry up and go with me to salute my old aunt." ”

"Yes, I know," Shi Jue said with some impatience. "Everyone is going to win this game of chess, and it's ruined like this." Saying that, he said to Shi Yu unwillingly: "Brother, this mess is saved like this, don't let the little guys clean it up, and after the cousin of the Liu family leaves, let's start again!" ”

"Alright, alright. Let's go, it's disrespectful to go late. Shi Yu took Shi Yu's hand and walked outside.

Soon, they pulled Shi Xiu behind.

Shi Xiu shouted from behind: "What are you in a hurry, the cousin of the Liu family can't leave for a while." ”

Shi Yu could hear it, and just blindly ran towards the living room.

But when he got to the parlor. Inside, only his grandmother Liu, his old aunt Shi, and his mother Li and two aunts sat inside, but Liu Wan and Liu Ke didn't know where they went.

When Liu saw him come in with Shi Jue, he hurriedly beckoned: "Go and salute your old aunt, she has loved you a lot in the past year." ”

Shi smiled and said, "Okay, it's good for the children to have this heart, quickly." Mama Xin gave them what I had prepared for them. ”

Shi Yu only had Liu Ke and Liu Wan in his heart at this time, where to put things in his eyes, but he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Liu. Respectfully accepted, saluted and thanked again, stood obediently and listened to them, looking for an opportunity to go out to find Liu Ke and others at any time.

I only heard Liu say to Shi: "Time flies really fast, and before I know it, the fourth child has also reached the age of discussing relatives, and my sister-in-law looks at what is suitable but I have to think of our family first." ”

"Our Shi family is a century-old family. The eldest brother is now a cabinet scholar, and even the child's father is a waiter at the Hanlin Academy. Are you afraid that you won't break the threshold? Shi Shi said half-jokingly, half-seriously.

Seeing that Shi didn't answer, Liu said with a smile: "What my sister-in-law said is good. It's just that it's better to find someone who knows the roots. ”

"What my sister-in-law said is also right, I watched this child grow up, and he is so studious, he has already been admitted to Xiucai before he gets married, and he has a fame, and his future will be limitless, and he is not in a hurry to start a family." Shi knew what Liu meant, but he just wanted her to say it herself.

Because Shi only knew in his heart that the Liu family wanted to marry the Liu family, but it was not clear whether she fell in love with Liu Qian or Liu Ke.

If Liu Wan also pays it back, she will just take the trouble to talk and convey it to Liu Ming, I believe that according to the foundation of the Shi family and the appearance of Shi Yu, the Liu family is still high, and Liu Ming will not refuse.

But if it's Liu Ke she likes, that's another story. I don't know the prince's attitude towards Liu Ke yet, if the prince asks her for someone in the future, it won't be self-defeating if she can't give it.

So she has to wait for Liu to say it herself.

When Shi Yu heard that they were discussing their marriage, he was anxious and worried.

He hasn't seen Liu Ke yet, if he decides on Liu Ke, if Liu Ke is really born as Shi Xiu said, then he won't regret it for the rest of his life.

At this time, when he saw that the two of them were talking vaguely, he knew that he was not condemning one of them to death today, but he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he looked at the other party's intentions.

And at this time, it was a good time for him to take a break to find Liu Ke, so he looked at the stall where Liu and Shi were talking, and interjected: "Grandmother, my grandson still has homework to finish before I retire." After speaking, he saluted Shi and confessed his sin.

Shi Shi smiled and said: "Brother Yu'er is important to study, this is very good, go quickly, I am not an outsider." ”

Shi Xiu withdrew from the living room after hearing this.

Shi Yu also came out after Shi Xiu.

As soon as he walked out of the door of the living room, Shi Xiu flew towards the backyard.

At this time, the most likely thing for the girls is to go to the Pleasant Garden to enjoy the spring flowers, and they will definitely be found there.

Shi Xiu was also inconvenient to stay in the living room, so she also found an excuse, and she saw that Shi Yu took Shi Yu to the direction of Yixin Garden, so she went there.

At this time, Liu Ke and Liu Wan were guided by Shi Wei to watch the spring flowers in Yixin Garden.

The garden is full of spring flowers, clusters, clusters, butterflies and bees flying and hovering on it, and from a distance it looks as if golden brocade covers the earth.

Liu Ke and Liu Wan walked in red clothes, looking more and more delicate.

Shi Yu hadn't come close yet, but he looked at it from a distance, and he was already stunned by the scene in front of him.

Just as he was slowly walking towards Liu Ke, he was slapped on the shoulder from behind, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Shi Yan standing in front of him! (To be continued)
