Xu Qirong didn't want to continue the previous topic with the fifteenth princess, so he hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have participated in the purification activity of the Shangsi Festival, I don't know how this witch is different from us ordinary people." ”

How could the fifteenth princess not understand Xu Qirong's thoughts, she felt a little excited at the moment, and also stood up and said: "At this time in previous years, Mrs. Shizi first invited the witch to her tent to bless, and this year I think it will be the same. She has people I don't like, so let's not join in the fun. Let's go out and wait with everyone first! ”

When Xu Qirong and the others got out of the tent, they found that except for Mrs. Shizi, the little ladies and Xiaolangjun in Manxi Capital had basically come out of the tent, chatting together and chatting with each other, while glancing at the tent in the eldest princess's mansion.

To hold a purification activity, there are many little ladies and sons and brothers here today who are of noble status, so there are already officers and soldiers who have gathered in a circle outside, and idle people are not allowed to enter. In terms of safety, there is no need to worry too much.

As soon as the fifteenth princess came out, several little ladies immediately came forward to say hello, and the four rooms of the Xu family were separated, although everyone would gossip a few words behind their backs, but seeing that the fifteenth princess had a good relationship with Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong, everyone did not dare to snub the two sisters in person.

Xu Qirong was smiling and chatting with a little lady about what books she reads on weekdays, what tricks she likes, and the tips she uses with her pen, when suddenly a person wearing a long green skirt with a corset and a maid came over and blessed Xu Qirong. asked, "May I ask Miss, but is it the fifth miss of the Xu family?" ”

Xu Qirong was a little surprised, there was no maid in the family she knew who dressed up like this. This kind of dress doesn't look like the big girl next to the little lady, but like the personal maid next to the sons and brothers.

Xu Qirong didn't know many sons, so he guessed in his heart, isn't it the person next to Hua Weijing? But she has seen Hua Weijing many times, Hua Weijing is surrounded by a little maid named Jinnian, and she has never brought any maids!

Qiu Nong reacted quickly and stood in front of Xu Qirong at the moment. Silently blocked Xu Qirong, and said with a smile: "My girl is the fifth lady of the Xu family, I don't know which sister you are?" What are you looking for my girl? ”

Akino asked both questions to the point. Xu Qirong nodded behind Qiu Nong.

The maid was seventeen or eighteen years old, with a round face, looking extremely kind, and immediately smiled: "The maid is the maid next to the second son of Taifu Cao's mansion." The fifth lady can call the maid with a clear voice. My son-in-law is fishing under the willow tree. Let the maid come and invite Miss Five to come over, and inform Miss Five of something important. ”

Cao Taifu's eldest son, Cao Huaijin and Xu Qirong, knew that he was a very outstanding person, and he married the daughter of Zuo Anming, the prime minister of Zuo. It's the second son, Cao Huaiyu, I don't know if the talent is too mediocre, let alone Xu Qirong, even a person like the little prince who has made friends has no impression of him.

Xu Qirong was a little hesitant. The Xu family and the Cao family have no intersection, why did this second son of Cao suddenly ask the maid to invite her over? If you want to hurt her. But there are people everywhere here, and you should find a quiet place to harm people! Thinking that in such a noisy environment, the second son of Cao was actually fishing under the willow tree, what a strange person!

Seeing Xu Qirong's hesitation, Bingqing smiled and said: "Fifth Miss don't worry, my son-in-law's character can be trusted, and it is also a good intention to find Miss in the past." If the fifth lady is not at ease, just bring a few more maids and wives to go over. ”

Then he glanced at Xu Qijin, who was being pulled by many little ladies to talk eloquently, and said, "Is that the second lady?" If the fifth miss is still not at ease, she will call the second miss and go over together. ”

The fifteenth princess was listening to a little lady introduce the latest face-trimming technique in Xijing City, and when she turned her head, she saw Xu Qirong frowning and listening to what a maid said, so she put aside the little lady and smiled in front of Xu Qirong: "What's wrong?" ”

While asking, he glanced at Bingqing casually.

The fifteenth princess asked so, if Xu Qirong told her truthfully, she would probably go with her. Thinking that it would be good to have the fifteenth princess follow, Xu Qirong was about to speak, when he saw that Bingqing's face changed, and the words that came to his mouth became: "It's not a big deal, she has a little personal matter and asks me for a favor." Princess, I'll go with her to the willow tree over there, and you can tell my sister later. ”

The fifteenth princess did not doubt Xu Qirong's words, so she said: "Then you should be careful and bring more people." Come back early, and the cleansing will begin! Later, I'll let the witch sprinkle blessings on us in front of everyone. ”

Xu Qirong agreed with a smile, and took Yu Xia and Qiu Nong to follow Bingqing away.

Seeing that no one noticed them along the way, Bing Qingcai lowered his voice and said to Xu Qirong: "My son-in-law has never liked to join in the fun, and he didn't want to come to participate in this cleansing event today, but the eldest son said that it was not a matter for him to be bored at home all day, so he said that he had driven people out." Childe has been grinding along the way for a long time, and he has just arrived. Outside, we met your mother and were stopped by the officers and soldiers. ”

Only then did Xu Qirong react to what Bing Qing's words meant by "also a good heart", and hurriedly said to Bingqing: "Then thank you son-in-law." ”

Bingqing smiled and said, "The maid is just a maid, where can she afford it, the fifth lady will tell my son-in-law in person later...... My son-in-law has a bit of a strange temper, Miss Fifth should ignore him, just thank him when she sees him. ”

Xu Qirong nodded, and had no time to explore how strange this second son Cao's temper was. Qiu Nong frowned and asked Yu Xia, "Think about it, have we forgotten something?" The people in the house were so tired that they came to find it at this time. ”

Yu Xia was honest, hearing Qiu Nong's question, he thought about it carefully, and shook his head: "I brought everything I should have brought...... Something could be going on at home, right? ”

Hearing Yu Xia's words, Xu Qirong's heart sank even more.

When I got close to the willow tree, I saw someone fishing.

The man was wearing a blue-jade cross-collared wide-sleeved men's skirt inside, with a five-bat tie around his waist, and a light green wide-sleeved smock of very light color outside, all of which were very ordinary styles, and there were no superfluous patterns, which made this person as calm as water. Without Bingqing to speak, Xu Qirong also guessed the identity of this person, it was Cao Huaiyu, the second son of the Cao family. As if in the hustle and bustle of the world, he was alone in a corner, silent.

Cao Huaiyu also had a maid beside him who was almost exactly the same as Bingqing's dress, who was half-kneeling on the ground making tea, and standing behind the maid was Mother Shen, who looked anxious.

Xu Qirong immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly walked up.

Bingqing blessed Cao Huaiyu: "Son, the fifth lady of the Xu family is here." ”

Cao Huaiyu inserted the fishing rod in his hand into the soil, clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at Xu Qirong: "You are the fifth lady of the Xu family!" Then his eyes fell on Yu Xia and Qiu Nong, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "This is your maid?" ”

Shen Anjia's face was anxious, but he couldn't interrupt his master's words at this time.

Xu Qirong nodded, remembered Bingqing's explanation on the road, and hurriedly said, "Exactly." The second son is warm and warm, and brought my mother in, Xu Qirong is here to thank the second son! ”

When Cao Huaiyu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, glared at Bingqing, who was standing aside and pretending to be innocent, then smiled, nodded, and when he spoke again, his face was gentle, making it difficult not to feel like a spring breeze: "It's just a gesture, Fifth Miss is polite." Shen's mother has come here to find someone, thinking that there is something urgent. Bingqing and Yujie and I went over there for a turn, and when Miss Fifth was talking to Shen's mother, she kept an eye on my fishing rod for me, so as not to let it be dragged away by the big fish in the river. ”

Not only did he speak in a gentle tone, but he was also extremely considerate, knowing that Shen An's family was going to talk about Xu Qirong's private affairs with Xu Qirong, so before Xu Qirong spoke, he took the initiative to give up the place to Xu Qirong.

Xu Qirong smiled gratefully at Cao Huaiyu: "Thank you, second son." ”

Estimating that Cao Huaiyu, Bingqing, and Yujie couldn't hear the sound here, Shen Anjia lowered his voice anxiously and said to Xu Qirong: "Girl, something is wrong at home." Not long after you left, people from the Dongyang Hou Mansion came to the door again. ”

Xu Qirong was originally very panicked, and when he heard what Shen Anjia said about this matter, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "They came when they came, didn't we expect this a long time ago, and we also have a way to deal with it, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Then his face changed, "Could it be that things have changed?" Who told you to come to me? ”

"It was the old man who called the old slave here." Shen Anjia's face was sad, "Today, the housekeeper of the Dongyang Hou Mansion brought a matchmaker to the door, saying that the Dongyang Hou Mansion was ready, and it would be a good day in three days, and the wedding would be held in three days." Today, I'm going to exchange Geng Ti with us to sign the marriage book. ”

As soon as Xu Qirong heard that the Dongyang Hou Mansion acted like this, he was so angry in his heart, but he still suppressed his anger: "It doesn't take three days, it's not for nothing that you change the Geng post and sign the marriage book on the wedding day, we just need to delay it for another day or two, and the matter will be resolved." Why did Daddy tell you to come to me at this time? ”

Then I heard Qiu Nong's oops, and when I turned my head, I saw Cao Huaiyu's fishing rod sinking down, as if it was being dragged by something, remembering Cao Huaiyu's words just now, I hurriedly bent down and reached out to pull the fishing rod out of the soil, and lifted it up, with a little force, but it was a light hand, but fortunately, Qiu Nong moved quickly and held her up, otherwise she would have sat on the ground.

Xu Qirong glanced at the fish hook and sighed: "It's gone!" ”

Qiu Nong's eyes were sharp, and he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly pulled the fishing line over, and then sent the fishing hook to Xu Qirong's eyes: "Girl, this hook is straight!" (To be continued......)
