[Chapter Word Count:3142 Last Updated:2015-04-2920:00:00.0]
After walking for almost half a cup of tea, a manor appeared on the mountainside, which was not very large, and the plum blossoms in the courtyard were proudly blooming in the rather cold river breeze. On the branches, the small white flowers compete for the cold and bright, adding some vitality to the entire snow peak. In the shadow of Merlin, several free-range red-crowned cranes paced back and forth with slender legs, and their small round eyes looked curiously at the group coming up at the foot of the mountain.
"Raising cranes and appreciating plum blossoms, it seems that the owner of this place has some leisure." Adapting to the identity of the Xianggong, Qin Baichuan made his own decisions and laughed loudly.
"Qin Xianggong praised it falsely." Uncle Chen looked down on Qin Baichuan in his heart, but he had to do some work on his face: "My young master once saw in the classical books that there was a hermit who was indifferent to fame and fortune, retired to the mountains and forests, took Mei as his wife and crane as his son, and later he followed suit and established this courtyard, which was just elegant and elegant." ”
"The vassal is elegant, but Old Chen said what I thought in my heart." Uncle Chen was originally humble, but Qin Baichuan nodded thoughtfully, and said: "At this time, the war in the north is waiting to be ignited, and the entire Dasong is facing foreign poisons, and the country is in danger, and he doesn't think about making contributions to the country, but he is raising cranes in this kind of plum...... The word vassal elegance is used lightly, and it is not a proper job at all. ”
Old Chen's face changed immediately, if it weren't for Qu Xi's presence, it was estimated that he would have pointed at Qin Baichuan's nose and scolded. MD, what kind of thing are you that you dare to talk nonsense when you first come here? Besides, it's nothing more than planting some plum blossoms and raising a few cranes, which has something to do with national events?
"Xianggong, Meizhuang rules, don't talk about state affairs!" Qin Baichuan was obviously provoking, Qu Xi was secretly happy in his heart, but he was afraid that he would make a big deal out of it, so he reminded him in a low voice.
"Meizhuang is an elegant place, talking about the fact that the country is in the scenery, or Miss Qu understands my young master." The gate of the courtyard suddenly opened, and a tall man walked out of it, clasped his fists at Qu Xi, and said with a smile: "Miss Qu, my son-in-law and all the talented people are waiting inside, please." ”
"There's Rauma Coach." Qu Xi was no stranger to tall men, nodded and stepped in.
"Wait!" Ma Jiaotou stretched out his hand to block Qin Baichuan's way: "My son-in-law and Miss Qu have something to talk about, and the rest of the idle people can retreat." ”
"Sect Leader Ma, what do you mean by this?" Without waiting for Qin Baichuan to speak, Qu Xi turned his head with a gloomy face and snorted: "Mr. Qin is my Qu Xi's father-in-law, if he is an idle person, then what am I?" I didn't know that the steward of this medicine pavilion had been replaced by Ma Zhi, if I had known earlier, even if you invited me to a sedan chair, I might not have been willing to come. ”
Qu Xi exuded a condescending and arrogant momentum, and his cold aura firmly controlled the whole scene in his hands, turned around and walked to Qin Baichuan's side, holding one of his arms: "Xianggong, let's go." ”
After Qu Xi finished speaking, he turned his head and wanted to leave, Qin Baichuan almost laughed out loud, don't look at herself, this lady never gives herself a good face, but when others accuse him, she really stands up for herself!
"Miss Qu, Ma Zhi has never been educated, and he is a pile of mud, why do you have to be like him?" Qu Xi had just walked a few steps when the door of the main hall opened, and a man who seemed to be twenty-three or four-year-old was wearing a light cyan jacket, walked out quickly, and said with a calm face: "Ma Zhi, don't kowtow to Miss Qu and confess!" ”
Qin Baichuan glanced at the man with slanted eyes, no need to ask, the tone of listening to this speech should be that rival Xiao Yu.
Ma Zhi didn't dare to disobey Xiao Yu's meaning, he looked at Qin Baichuan with gloomy eyes, and then reluctantly knelt down on one knee and said incorrectly: "Miss Qu, Ma Zhi is reckless, please punish him!" ”
"Miss Qu, he already knows that he is wrong, for my sake, if you spare him, I will definitely discipline him strictly." Xiao Yu smiled at Qu Xi, turned around and said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze? Don't get out of here! ”
"Yes!" Ma Zhi bowed slightly, stood up and stepped aside.
"It's windy outside, come on, let's talk about it if you have anything to say." Retreating Ma Zhi, Xiao Yu had a look of concern on his face, and he made a gesture to grab Qu Xi's arm.
"Xianggong, we have to give Xiao Gongzi's face." Qu Xi took a step back without a trace and raised his chin at Qin Baichuan.
Qin Baichuan stretched out his hand and lightly swept her pointed chin, and said with a smile full of affection: "If you say let's go, you will stay, listen to you." ”
Qin Baichuan's movements were intimate, Xiao Yu's face changed slightly, and he returned to normal in an instant, pretending not to see Qin Baichuan, and leading the way first. Qu Xi also made a big red face, and after getting close to Qin Baichuan, he whispered: "You have a little bit of measure!" This time I came here for two purposes, not only to break Xiao Yu's mind, but also not to affect the normal performance of the villa. ”
"It's a little hard to get the best of both worlds." Qin Baichuan sniffed the fragrant fragrance on his fingers and said with a smile.
"Try it even if it's hard!" Qu Xi pouted, quite coquettish.
The two of them leaned into the room, and at this time there was a long table in the center of the room, Xiao Yu sat in the center, and the position on the left hand side was empty, obviously reserved for Qu Xi. On either side of the long table sat about five or six men, all of whom were of different shapes and appearances, but all of them were dressed in rich robes and swaying folding fans in their hands, and they were all obviously figures with heads and faces.
"Miss Qu, it's been a year since we last met, I can't imagine that you are more radiant, I really admire Brother Xiao's blessings!"
"Miss Qu is busy with affairs, I can come to the appointment today, if I want to say that it is our blessing!"
"Today's beautiful scenery, it is also a great joy in life to be able to enjoy the plum and fuqin with Miss Qu and Xiao Gongzi!"
……
As soon as Qu Xi came in, a series of greetings sounded on both sides, these people were the customers of Splendid Villa, Qu Xi didn't dare to offend, and nodded slightly to the crowd, but he was a little anxious in his heart. Xiao Yu has a lot of friends, and he pays very attention to her, and it is likely that he will learn the news that she has married in the household department. Moreover, he also called Qin Baichuan "Xianggong" in front of Xiao Yu, no matter how stupid he was, he should know Qin Baichuan's identity.
I thought that Xiao Yu would be furious and unite these patrons to attack her, so that she could argue with reason and reject Xiao Yu according to what she had prepared and not offend him. But now it's good, these people seem to have discussed it, and they all don't seem to see Qin Baichuan, so even if they have all the strength, they can't fight.
"Miss Qu, the seat has been left, why don't you sit down yet?" After the greetings, Xiao Yu pointed to his side.
"I came with Xianggong today, how dare I sit down if he doesn't sit?" Qu Xi took a half step back and pushed Qin Baichuan out.
"Baby wife, people are kind enough to invite us to dinner, we have to sit down." These people looked at Qu Xi's eyes very impurely, Qin Baichuan was a little annoyed in his heart, raised his foot and kicked the stool of the person in front of him: "Hey, we are the host and guest, can you give a place?" ”
"What are you—" The man who was kicked was about to have a seizure.
"Brother Wang, since Miss Qu wants to sit there, you will let me." Xiao Yu interrupted with a wave of his hand, motioning for them to sit on his side.
"Humph!" The royal brother and his friend beside him snorted reluctantly and changed seats as they said.
"Who, you, horseman, right? This name seems to be very powerful. Ma Zhi, the head of the sect, was standing behind Xiao Yu at this time, and Qin Baichuan unceremoniously pointed at his nose with a folding fan: "These two pairs of dishes and chopsticks have also been replaced, and they have been touched, and my baby wife is dirty." ”
"Stinky boy, I am the head of the Xiao family, even if you are the Qu family, you are not qualified to order me!" Ma Zhi's eyes erupted with fire, and the green tendons on his arms burst out.
"Well, baby wife, they don't seem to welcome us...... Why don't you go? Qin Baichuan bowed slightly to Qu Xi, showing a humble and humble attitude, and asked.
"Doglegs!" Ma Zhi snorted softly.
"Ma Zhi, are you deaf? Miss Qu asked you to change two pairs of chopsticks, don't go quickly! Xiao Yu glared at Ma Zhi, this guy has little root in his brain, and ignoring it is the biggest contempt for that son-in-law, don't you see that he deliberately wants to provoke?
"Yes!" Ma Zhi clenched his fists and turned away.
"Miss Qu, it's okay this time, right?" Xiao Yu still didn't glance at Qin Baichuan, and smiled at Qu Xi: "I know you like to eat some green vegetables, so I specially sent someone to fetch some from the southern coastal area, come, sit down and taste the taste." ”
Xiao Yu's attitude was always polite, and Qu Xi couldn't disobey his face, so he had to pull Qin Baichuan into the table.
"Miss Qu, the dishes and chopsticks you want." With a hint of cunning on his face, Ma Zhi flashed out from behind, put the two pairs of dishes and chopsticks in front of Qin Baichuan and Qu Xi in turn, and said with a smile: "Please use it slowly." ”
Qu Xi nodded in gratitude, and was about to grab the chopsticks, but Qin Baichuan was one step ahead of her, and exchanged himself with Qu Xi's dishes and chopsticks, and the corner of his eyes noticed that Ma Zhi's face changed slightly, and Qin Baichuan smiled again: "My lady said, she is not used to using this pair of chopsticks, and she wants to exchange them with the master." ”
Qu Xi frowned, why did this person have so many things? At present, the atmosphere has become less harmonious, and it is likely that it will only backfire if it continues. Just wanted to open her mouth to refuse, but she didn't want Qin Baichuan to kick her secretly below, so she had to hold back her words.
"Miss Qu wants to use my dishes and chopsticks? How do I feel like I'm exchanging tokens? Xiao Yu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and said with a smile: "That being the case, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
"Childe, no!" Ma Zhidan grinned in pain, when he went to get the dishes and chopsticks just now, in order to take revenge on that bullshit, he deliberately peed a little urine on the chopsticks, if he changed it like this...... Ma Zhi didn't dare to think about it.
Xiao Yu and Qu Xi are not fools, as soon as Ma Zhigang opened his mouth, they both understood. Xiao Yu stared at Ma Zhi with gloomy eyes, but Qu Xi's eyes were full of brilliance, Qin Baichuan, a scoundrel, really had some skills, Ma Zhi wanted to calculate him, but he underestimated and calculated on Xiao Yu's head.
"Give me a change!" Xiao Yu put the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said angrily.
"Yes!" Ma Zhi was full of excitement, it's over, don't look at his son is always gentle and elegant in front of people, but the means behind the whole person are really outrageous. I made a mistake today, and my son had to peel off a layer of skin afterwards!
