Chapter 398, the meaning of Qi Guogong
In terms of the amount of clothes, Mrs. Tai felt that Qu Moying was too little, and the clothes of the guests could not be too few.
As for Qu Qiuyan, Qu Moying did it, it is difficult for her to make two sets of mistakes!
"Yes, Madame!" My grandmother answered, and after dividing the gifts of the two young ladies, she found the two mothers-in-law and asked them to send them over.
After Qu Moying accepted the gift, she gave her mother-in-law a reward, and after sitting down, she thought about it for a while, and didn't understand what kind of banquet this so-called chrysanthemum banquet was.
Although she knew that the Duchess of Qi would inevitably send back the gift, she didn't expect that there was such a thing as a chrysanthemum banquet, and the Duke of Qi Mansion was very low-key in everything since she beat Qi Guogong and rarely had banquets.
Last time, the banquet of the Duchess was not big, but now this chrysanthemum banquet is very intriguing, it stands to reason that there should not be such a banquet, is it because of their own etiquette?
If so, the meaning in this is becoming more and more weird, she was originally going to contact the eldest prince of the Duke of Qi, why is it so valued now?
Qu Moying's gift was placed on the bookcase upright, which was picked out from the pile of gifts in Qufu, a piano sheet and two sets of knee pads and a forehead, the embroidery was not particularly good, but it was serious and fine, it could be seen that it was embroidered by the young lady of Qufu herself, and when it was sent, the mother-in-law of Qufu also said her own miss's mind.
Qi Guogong sat on the chair in front of the bookcase, he was tall, but this would make people feel old and tired, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes fell on these gifts.
He has been looking at it like this for a long time, and he has made the little guy at the door uneasy for a long time, and his grandfather has been looking at it like this since he brought these few things, and even the air is very dull.
"The eldest son!" The little maid suddenly saw Qi Xiuran at the door, and hurriedly ran over.

"Where's Grandfather?" Qi Xiuran asked.
"In the study." The little guy stretched out his hand and pointed to the study, and said in a low voice.
"There's a guest?" Qi Xiuran stopped, although the little guy didn't say anything, it was a little weird.
"There are no guests, but Grandpa Guo has been sitting, and he has been sitting for a long time, and the slave just wanted to change a cup of tea for Grandpa Guo, but Grandpa Guo didn't let him." The little guy said
"Who has been here?" Qi Xiuran asked, his grandfather's temperament is not the kind of person who can sit quietly for so long, his grandfather once said that he was originally a military general, and he couldn't be such a deep look.
"No one has been here, but I heard that Qu Shilang's mansion sent some gifts, and after Grandpa Guo picked a few, he brought them over, and then put them all the way to look at them." The little guy was also confused, these things were obviously not for Grandpa Guo, but Grandpa Guo found a reason to bring them all.
As for this reason, the little guy felt weird, and said that he wanted to give gifts to other houses, for reference.
Hasn't it always been the Duchess of the Republic of China who has always been in charge of this gift-giving!
"Who's from it?" Qi Xiuran didn't hear clearly.
"Qu Shilang's mansion said that it was a gift from the two young ladies in the mansion and Mrs. Tai to the Duchess of our family." The little guy stretched out his hand and gestured outward, pointing in a random direction.
"Grandfather just looked at these gifts?" Qi Xiuran's eyes widened in shock.
"That's right, it's all now, and the slaves don't dare to disturb Grandpa Guo." The little guy said with a bitter face.
"I'll take a look!" Qi Xiuran said
, He originally had something to find his grandfather, and he heard his grandmother say that he was going to hold a chrysanthemum banquet in the house, but this chrysanthemum has basically not bloomed yet, so where can he find the blooming chrysanthemum.
Grandmother said that this was what grandfather meant, so Qi Xiuran came over to ask what grandfather meant, but he didn't expect to see this scene.
Gently pushed open the door and saw the old man in front of the bookcase, Qi Xiuran had a feeling, he hadn't seen him for a few hours, Qi Xiuran felt that his grandfather seemed to be much older, the whole person looked very tired, his hand was propped up on the chair rail, and his eyes looked at a few things on the bookcase in front of him in a daze.
This is the gift from Qu Shilang's mansion?
There is such a great magic power, which makes my grandfather look so fascinated.
coughed lightly, and finally caused Qi Guogong above to raise his head, and seeing that it was his eldest grandson, Qi Guogong showed a smile on his face, so he looked a little energetic.
"Xiu Ran is back."
"I've seen my grandfather!" Qi Xiuran stepped forward and saluted Qi Guogong.
Qi Guogong's body leaned back, reached out and pressed his forehead, closed his eyes, and seemed to have relaxed his whole body, with a tiredness that Qi Xiuran could see clearly.
"Grandfather, grandmother said that you are going to hold a chrysanthemum feast, and you will invite some people over, all of them are some old and close-knit young ladies and sons of the family." Qi Xiuran asked.
No matter how weird he thought, even though his grandmother explained it to him, he still couldn't understand what his grandfather meant and when his grandfather would care about such a thing.
"Xiu Ran, you sit down first, I'm looking for you about this." Qi Guogong said gently, stretched out his hand and pointed to the chair on the side.
Qi Xiuran sat down in a regular manner, looked at Qi Guogong, and the little servant came in to change the teacup for Qi Guogong, and also sent a cup of tea for Qi Xiuran.
"Xiu Ran, your family affairs have not been booked, so I will simply find a few old ladies to come over in a few days, in the name of appreciating the chrysanthemum banquet, you can take a look at each other, maybe you can find a suitable one."
Qi Guogong picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip, and said slowly.
"Grandfather, my family affairs are not in a hurry." Speaking of his own family affairs, Qi Xiuran was also a little uncomfortable, especially when his grandfather said this, how to look at this matter is at most his grandmother to say, what makes the elders so anxious, and feels that his eldest grandson's family affairs are a difficult thing.
Is this to help yourself see each other?
"Actually, it's not just yours, but also your brother's, but if all the people invited are the ladies of the family, it's not good, so simply invite those good ladies and sons to come over, and everyone can enjoy the flowers at will." Qi is fair.
This is not his own business, Qi Xiuran is not so uncomfortable, after thinking about it, he also thinks it is good, anyway, this is not his own look, and he doesn't have to care too much.
"According to what my grandfather said, but this chrysanthemum, I'm afraid I won't be able to find it for a while." Qi Xiuran said.
The chrysanthemums in Beijing have basically not bloomed yet, and the local atmosphere here is slightly later than other places, and as for wanting to find them from other provinces, they can't do it in one or two days, and the time for the banquet is imminent.
"I forgot to tell your grandmother about this, I will look for this chrysanthemum, there was a new tribute of chrysanthemums before, I went to ask the emperor for two pots." Qi is fair.
Didn't my grandfather like this kind of flowers and plants the most? When did you get into it to this extent, could it be that it was a family affair between your second brother and two people, and it was really to this extent, even your grandmother
No way, now even my grandfather is in battle?
No, no matter how poor he is, he is also the future son of the Duke of Qi, and he and his second brother are also talents in Beijing, so where do you need your grandmother and grandfather to go into battle together to find a good family business.
"Grandfather, it's always not good to alarm the emperor with such a small banquet!" Qi Xiuran reminded implicitly.
"It's fine!" Qi Guogong said gently, and as he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a set of knee pads in front of him, "This is the knee pads sent by the young lady in Qu Shilang's mansion, I look good, so I took it from your grandmother, thinking that when I give gifts in the future, I can also let people give me an extra pair of knee pads." ”
So, that's why my grandfather brought these gifts?
The second monk Qi Xiuran was puzzled, but nodded, "It's really good, grandfather's idea is very good!" ”
This reason is really far-fetched, Qi Xiuran's eyes fell on a piano score, and after reading it, he stood up and saw Hunt Xinxi: "Grandfather, this is a piano score!" ”
His liking for the piano is something that the entire Qi State Mansion knows.
"Yes, look at it, I look good!" Qi Guo was fair, and stretched out his hand to hand the score to Qi Xiuran.
Qi Xiuran almost felt that he had auditory hallucinations, what did his grandfather just say, saying that he had seen it, and he thought it was good? The question is, when did my grandfather understand the piano, and he said it so seriously.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that he was stunned there, Qi Guogong said displeasedly.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing! Qi Xiuran hurriedly said, took the score in his hand, sat down again, looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more excited he became, and the more he looked at it, the more he was happy, he was now sure that the strings belonged to the fourth lady in Qu Shilang's mansion, he had read the residual score before, and he had also continued it, but he always felt that it was not as good as hers.
I couldn't help but slapped my hand on the side and shouted, "Okay!" ”
After the call, I found that this was not my study, and my grandfather was still sitting next to me, and I looked up embarrassedly, but I suddenly saw my grandfather's face in front of me, and I couldn't help but be startled, when did my grandfather come in front of me.
"How?" Seeing his grandson looking at him with a strange expression, Qi Guogong stepped back, sat up straight, and asked.
"Good!" Qi Xiuran nodded, it's really good, "This song is composed like this, it looks more suitable, if there is nothing wrong with grandfather, I will go back first, I will try it." ”
He was happy to see the hunt, he couldn't sit still at this time, and he would feel more clearly when he went back to try it, and when he continued, there were still some places that seemed suffocating.
I always feel that something is not quite right.
"Qu Shilang gave birth to a good daughter!" Qi Guogong sighed and asked again, "What do you think of this Miss Qu Si?" ”
"He's a clever one!" Qi Xiuran praised it repeatedly, and rushed to this score, he felt that this Miss Qu Si was very talented.
"It's just a pitiful, I saw it once before, and although she looked at her eyes, she wasn't as plain as she was said outside, I heard that her eyes were going to be better, and now she is in the recovery period, and after a while, she will be like a normal person." Qi Guogong looked at his grandson and said.
Qi Xiuran didn't understand what his grandfather meant more and more, how could he be like his mother in the past and himself in private, talking about that young lady was very good, is that what it means?
Grandfather, what the hell is going on?
