Chapter 70: The Plum Banquet

"Big brother remembers correctly, but people occasionally have to look at different landscapes, and they haven't walked before walking, haven't they?" Qing Jin replied with Gu Jingxuan's eyes in her eyes.

Hearing Qing Jin's meaningful reply, Gu Jingxuan lowered his head, and his eyes flashed with deep thought and puzzlement, and then raised his head and smiled faintly at Qing Jin, and asked unabashedly: "What the second sister said is that the eldest brother is superficial, and the second sister is so tolerant of the fifth sister because she thinks so?" ”

"Forbearance? The eldest brother said this badly, the fifth sister is also Qingjin's sister, the sisters should get along with each other amicably, I am the elder sister, and it is right to let the younger brothers and sisters below have a little more. Qing Jin spoke casually.

Gu Jingxuan heard Qing Jin's words and nodded lightly: "The eldest brother understands what the second sister means, it seems that the second sister is really different from the past, by the way, is the second sister going to grandmother?" ”

"Yes, Qing Jin is going to say goodbye to her grandmother."

"Then the eldest brother won't delay the second sister to say goodbye to the grandmother, and the eldest brother will leave first!"

Qing Jin nodded when she heard Gu Jingxuan's words.

Gu Jingxuan crossed Qing Jin's master and servant and left in the direction behind Qing Jin.

After Gu Jingxuan left, the mandarin duck standing next to Qing Jin said to Qing Jin in disbelief: "Girl, is that really the eldest young master?" The slave maid just thought it was...... However, girl, how can you recognize the eldest young master at a glance, just heard the girl call the eldest brother, the mandarin duck was taken aback, and after careful observation, he recognized that it was the eldest young master. ”

"Actually, I guessed too."

"Oh, no! By the way, girl, what kind of dumb riddle did you just play with the eldest young master? The mandarin duck asked.

“……………………”

"Girl, just tell the slave and maid!"

“……………………”

"Girl......"

In the twilight, the figures of the master and servant walked towards the morning glow courtyard.

That day, Qing Jin didn't see her grandmother Shen after all, and the old lady was obviously still angry about Qing Jin's behavior, so she just asked Chu Liu, who was next to her, to spread the word that she was unwell, so she sent Qing Jin away.

Qing Jin came out of her grandmother Shen's yard and returned to her yard. The fever started that night. fell ill, this illness was sick for more than a month, during which the family sent a post inviting Qing Jin to the banquet, Qing Jin naturally refused, and Qing Yao went alone or stayed with Qingxia and Qingqi.

It was already cold in the north in December, with long ice cubes on the eaves. Upside-down golden hook. Yesterday it snowed for the first time since the beginning of winter, and the cold air in the early morning was in the lungs, coupled with the occasional cold wind, which made people shiver.

Qing Jin, who was supposed to be in bed to recuperate, couldn't see a little sick at this time, and lay comfortably in the warm room where the earth dragon was burning, holding a book in her hand. Listening to the mandarin ducks talking about the latest gossip inside and outside the house, the days are very comfortable.

On this day, Qing Jin just got up, leaned on the head of the bed and looked through the books in her hands. At this time, the door was gently pushed open, and Qing Jin looked at the person who came in, dressed in a white dress and wearing a white fox fur. The end is Bingqing Yujie. Elegant and vulgar, Ren is Qingjin is extremely familiar with the person in front of him. There was still a moment of amazement, smiled lightly, looked at the visitor and shouted, "Fourth sister, why are you here?" ”

As soon as Qing Yao entered the room, she approached the bed, saw Qing Jin who was only wearing a single dress, and said with concern: "It's early in the morning, why don't the second sister put on more clothes." The second sister is still sick, what if she catches a cold again? ”

"What the fourth girl said is very true, and the slave maid often persuades our girls like this, but the girl always doesn't listen, and she has to say it several times every time to remember." After that, he put on a coat in his hand and put it on Qing Jin.

Hearing Mandarin Duck's words, Qing Jin straightened her clothes and said with a smile: "You girl, I just feel that the room is warm, so I don't think I need to care so much, but when you see someone, you have to talk to the girl and me again." After that, he turned his head to Qing Yao and asked, "Fourth sister came over so early, what's the matter!" ”

Qing Yao heard Qing Jin say this, nodded, took an invitation from the hand of the personal maid and handed it to Qing Jin.

Qing Jin motioned to the mandarin duck next to him to take it, but instead of taking it and looking at it, he asked Qing Yao in front of him, "What is this?" ”

"The invitation of the Duke of Qi State, the girl of the Qi family will hold a plum appreciation banquet in seven days." Qing Yao said to Qing Jin.

"Plum feast? said that the fourth sister doesn't have to run to me every time the post comes, and the fourth sister also came over on purpose, since it is the plum banquet of the Qi State Mansion, the concubines of the great family should be invited, and the fifth sister and the sixth sister should not be suitable to go with the fourth sister, and the fourth sister will go alone! After hearing this, Qing Jin said without thinking.

When Qing Yao heard Qing Jin's words, she wanted to say something, turned her head and asked the mandarin duck standing next to Qing Jin, "Isn't the second sister's wind chill still good?" ”

When the mandarin duck heard Qing Yao's question, he didn't look at Qing Jin, as if he could finally find someone to complain, and said to Qing Yao: "But isn't it, four girls, you help the mandarin duck to persuade my girl, it was almost good some time ago, and the doctor said that you can go out after lying on the bed and recuperating for a while, but yesterday I heard that it was snowing outside, and the girl had to open the window and say what snow scene to see, and the slave didn't listen to it for a long time, no, I had a little fever last night." ”

"How so? Second sister, you have to recuperate well and strive to get better when the plum banquet comes. Hearing Mandarin Duck's words, Qing Yao said to Qing Jin.

Qing Jin heard Qing Yao mention the plum appreciation banquet again, and asked with some curiosity: "Seeing that the fourth sister attaches so much importance to this plum appreciation banquet, is there anything different about this banquet?" ”

Hearing Qing Jin's question, a trace of annoyance flashed in Qing Yao's eyes, and she disappeared in an instant, and said to Qing Jin: "Yao'er doesn't know that this news is indeed uncertain, but I heard that this plum banquet of the Duke of Qi not only invited the nobles of various families in the capital, but also invited male guests, saying that the prince and all the princes will go at that time!" ”

Hearing Qing Yao's words, Qing Jin couldn't help but be a little surprised, isn't this equivalent to a blind date banquet in disguise?

"Second sister, will you go with your sisters then?" Qing Yao looked at Qing Jin pondering, and asked a little uncomfortably.

Seeing Gu Qingyao's relaxed appearance, but her expression couldn't hide her apprehension, Qing Jin felt a little strange, but she didn't think much about it, "Does the fourth sister want the second sister to accompany her?" Qing Jin asked.

Qing Yao didn't expect Qing Jin to ask like this, and said a little overwhelmed: "Second sister, I ......"

"Hehe, looking at the reaction of the fourth sister, it seems that she doesn't want the second sister to accompany her, the second sister is just joking with the fourth sister, the second sister's body, the doctor has said that she wants to recuperate, and the weather outside is so cold, of course the second sister can't go." Seeing that after she finished speaking, Qing Yao on the other side was obviously relieved, and Qing Jin immediately confirmed that she definitely didn't think much about it just now, Gu Qingyao didn't want her to participate in this plum banquet.

Although I don't know why, Qing Jin really doesn't like to accompany some idle people to participate in the plum appreciation in the winter, compared to what to participate in the plum banquet, she prefers to lie in the warm room to read the travel book, listen to the mandarin duck talk about the gossip outside, and she only read half of the new book she bought yesterday!

"The second sister, Qing Yao will leave first, and the second sister will recuperate!" After hearing Qing Jin's answer, Qing Yao said goodbye and left.

"Girl, why did the second girl come here for this trip?" After Qing Yao came to open, the mandarin duck asked Qing Jin puzzled.

"No matter why she's going to go, anyway, your girl and I have no interest in that plum banquet at all, what, do you want to go?" Qing Jin raised her head from the book and asked the mandarin duck.

"It's a cold day, and the slave still likes to stay in the room with the girl."

Hearing Mandarin Duck's words, Qing Jin lowered her head and continued to look at the travelogue in her hand, and the room was quiet and harmonious.

However, it's not that Qing Jin said that she couldn't go if she didn't want to go, just the day before the plum banquet, Qing Jin's grandmother Shen asked her to send Qing Jin a few pieces of jewelry, and let people bring a paragraph, which can be summed up in two meanings, one is to ask Qing Jin to participate in tomorrow's plum banquet; The second is to ask Qing Jin not to do anything that is out of line with the scene at the plum banquet.

Shen asked Qing Jin to participate in the plum banquet, of course, he didn't inform others, so when Qing Yao saw Qing Jin on the horse the next day, there was a moment of stunned on her face, as well as injuries and grievances.

"Second sister, you ......"

"Fourth sister, originally the second sister didn't want to be able to participate in this plum banquet, I didn't expect that yesterday the doctor said that my typhoid fever is not a big problem, it happened that my grandmother was a little uncomfortable, so she called the doctor over, knowing that I was not seriously ill, I called the maid Chuliu next to me to pass the word, saying that today's plum banquet let me also go to have a fun, it was too late at that time, so I didn't send someone to tell the fourth sister, the fourth sister was surprised to see me today?"

"No, the second sister can go to the plum banquet with Qing Yao, and Qing Yao doesn't know how happy she is!" Hearing Qing Jin's words, Qing Yao immediately pretended to be happy and said.

"That's good, the second sister is afraid that the fourth sister made a special trip that day, and the second sister said that she couldn't go, but today she is going again, thinking that her sister is lying to her sister!"

"Second sister, how could Qing Yao think so."

The plum blossom banquet of the Duke of Qi was held in the annex, and a large plum forest was planted in that courtyard.

The carriage of Anji Houfu drove to the door of the Qi family's courtyard and slowly stopped, Qing Jin and Gu Qingyao got off the carriage one after another, and learned from the mouth of the maid that there were not many people coming, and when everyone was enjoying the plum blossoms around Meilin, Qing Jin and Qing Yao also walked around the plum forest under Qing Yao's mentions,

"Second sister, do you see if the one in front of you is His Royal Highness the Third Prince?" When Qing Jin was bored, Gu Qingyao next to her said this sentence to her. (To be continued.) )
