379. Pride
Qiao Qianzhen reverberated this sentence in her mind, and gradually cried silently, and only replied in the door for the longest time: "Young Master Lu, it's not early, you go back to the house early, be careful on the way." ”
Young Master Lu clapped slightly: "Miss Qiao, I'm leaving, goodbye." ”
Qiao Qian cherishes the remake.
Qiao Qianzhen was lying in the tiny crack of the door and looked at Young Master Lu, he was still a humble and upright person as before, gentle as jade, looking at the back of him leaving, the corners of her mouth gradually raised a smile.
Soon, she will become his daughter-in-law.
Three far away, Lu Jiajian may come to discuss relatives, and after matching Qiao Qianying and Young Master Lu, they agreed to wait until the next year, after the national funeral, the Lu family will come to send them to the appointment.
When Qiao's mansion was holding good news, Qiao Siwan encountered an unpleasant thing.
On this day, the county lord's mansion received an invitation, saying that it was an invitation, and it was even more of a war sticker.
The person who posted this post is Pang Yunting, and this Pang Yunting is no one else, but the niece of the clan in the Pang Bi room of King Zhen's mansion.
In addition to this level of involvement, the Pang family is also a big family, the master of the family is a cabinet bachelor, from the second grade, and he is also a well-known official in the court.
And Pang Yunting is the third daughter of the master of Pang Industrialist.
Compared with Pang Biroom, the daughter of the Pang family, Pang Yunting's identity is much higher.
The place where Pang Yunting might invite Qiao Siwan was not Pang Mansion, but the most famous Wenxuan Pavilion in Yandu City.
Wenxuan Pavilion is known as the first literary pavilion in the universe, and the people who come and go inside every day are literati and bachelors, in which they chant poems and write poems, paint and fight chess.
And what Pang Yunting may ask Qiao Siwan to do is to play a game of chess with her, a game to determine the winner or lose, the loser must listen to the winner's orders, and the winner will inevitably do what the loser does.
Qiao Siwan is somewhat inexplicable, although she and Pang Bien's room have some festivals, but if Pang Yunting wants to come forward for Pang Bian's room, why should she be at this time?
After listening to Su Yue's answer, Qiao Siwan realized that Pang Yunting was more or less here for Zhou Xiuye.
This Pang Yunting, who saw Zhou Xiuye when she was a child, went out to seek knowledge for many years not long after, and only returned to Yandu City in recent days.
Qiao Siwan's first understanding was not resentment, but that she sighed that this Pang Yunting was really bold.
There are not one or two women in Yandu City who deliberately treat Zhou Xiuye, but other women don't dare to look at Zhou Xiuye more because of their cowardly bodies, and when they come to Pang Yunting, they simply look for her to move.
Removing it aside, Pang Yunting's boldness alone is enough to make people look sideways.
It's just that in this gamble, Qiao Siwan won't go, Pang Yunting's index is the most, that is, she wants to win her, and then let her leave Zhou Xiuye.
Qiao Siwan browsed Pang Yunting's courage the most, but she was most tired of her approach, Zhou Xiuye was a person and not an item that could be exchanged casually, if Pang Yunting was really rare Zhou Xiuye, she could compete with her, but she happened to use this method.
When Qiao Siwan wanted to pick up the pen to write a reply to Pang Yunting, Zhou Xiuye came over.
Looking at Zhou Xiuye's gloomy demeanor, he once knew what was produced.
"Weiwei, you don't have to pay attention to Pang Yunting's stupid girl."
Qiao Siwan smiled: "I naturally have to reason, and I have to reply to her post." ”
Zhou Xiuye clapped slightly, and he knew that Weiwei would definitely not go crazy with Pang Yunting's stupid girl.
Qiao Siwan put down the pen in her hand, supported her and longed for Zhou Xiuye and said, "Zhou Xiuye, what did you have with Pang Yunting, why did she ask me to move it as soon as she returned?" ”
Zhou Xiuye condensed his face: "I've only seen her a few times, I don't even remember what she looks like, I don't know what she's crazy at this time." ”
Looking at Zhou Xiuye's demeanor, Qiao Siwan had some fun insulting him, since then, she has been a tool that has been molested from time to time, and finally has such an opportunity, she really doesn't want to give up.
Qiao Siwan turned around, looked straight at Zhou Xiuye and said, "You really don't remember what Pang Yunting looks like?" Don't you usually be able to completely remember people's looks at them at a glance, how did you owe Heng when you got to Pang Yunting? You are honest and honest with me, when you were a child, did you call her Tingtingmm, you are really not Yan'er's playmates? ”
Zhou Xiuye's narrow phoenix eyes picked: "She is not worth burying her head in this world." ”
Qiao Siwan's eyes moved slightly, this is even used in this world, it seems that Zhou Xiuye is genuine, but seeing his somewhat angry look, she actually has some love for him, and she wants to tease him even more.
The smile on the corner of Qiao Siwan's mouth deepened: "I don't remember my demeanor when I was a child, so have you ever thought that maybe Pang Yunting will be a stunning beauty when she grows up?" ”
Zhou Xiuye raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Really?" Can anyone be as beautiful as Qiao Siwan, the little princess of this world? ”
Qiao Siwan recognized that when she heard this, her heart was a little sweet.
It's just that Zhou Xiuye's words turned the fastest, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became evil: "However, the little princess of this world is a little disobedient today. Therefore, this son decided to punish her a little. ”
Seeing this, Qiao Siwan had a bad feeling in her heart, and wanted to run away, but before she could stand up, her waist tightened, and then she was pulled into Zhou Xiuye's arms and simply pressed on the table in the study.
"Zhou Xiuye, don't, I'm begging for mercy ......"
Before Qiao Siwan's words were finished, she was forcibly blocked back by a pair of falling lips......
Qiao Siwan posted a reply to Pang Yunting that day, but the reply was a poem riddle, and her revival was hidden in the poem.
Pang Yunting wanted to show herself her scribe skills, so she chose the most difficult chess to play herself, so she naturally couldn't show weakness.
If Pang Yunting can't even guess a poem fan, then she won't even pay attention to her in the future.
In the rarest words of Zhou Xiuye, that is: "The man who dares to covet her also depends on whether she Pang Yunting has this ability." ”
The next morning, Qiao Siwan received Pang Yunting's post, this time it was usually an invitation, but a revival of her reply yesterday.
Pang Yunting's revival is also a poetry fan.
After reading this poem, Qiao Siwan replied to Pang Yunting on the same day.
In this way, Qiao Siwan and Pang Yunting went back and forth, and in the end, Pang Yunting took a step back, and the gambling chess with more or less indicators only caused the two of them to play a game of chess.
The easiest reason for Qiao Siwan to subdue Pang Yunting was to defeat her in the most complacent aspects and force her to fail.
Although Qiao Siwan said that it was not uncommon to fight for anything, but it belonged to her, and she would not give it up.
In this way, when Qiao Siwan and Pang Yunting met in Wenxuan Pavilion, it was already ten days after Pang Yunting first posted to Qiao Siwan.
And on this day, the last time is actually the Qixi Festival.
On July 7, the Wenxuan Pavilion was full of people, and outside the Wenxuan Pavilion was also gearing up.
In Yandu City, everyone knows that today, Qiao Siwan, the lord of Anzhou, and Pang Yunting, the most capable concubine of the Pang family, will hold a chess game in Wenxuan Pavilion.
To deal with Pang Yunting, there are not many people in Yandu City, but when dealing with Qiao Siwan, almost everyone knows about it.
Therefore, the Qixi Festival, which is more or less a festival for young men and women to seek marriage, has only become a battle between Qiao Siwan and Pang Yunting today.
Zhou Xiuye wanted to pass by Qiao Siwan to Wenxuan Pavilion today, but Qiao Siwan sternly rejected him and gave him a sentence: "This is a battle between women." ”
Zhou Xiuye's narrow phoenix eyes were picked, but in the end, he didn't go with Qiao Siwan.
However, he chartered a private room in the restaurant in front of Wenxuan Pavilion, and took the four subordinates of Moshu, Ling Qin, Cheng Jiang, and Chang Mu to watch the chess game between Qiao Siwan and Wenxuan Pavilion.
Before the chess game started, Zhou Xiuye decided that Qiao Siwan must win, and the reason why he came was to wait to take Qiao Siwan, a successful person, back to the county lord's mansion.
And because of this, he came down with the four major subordinates to cheer Qiao Siwan.
Cheng Jiang nestled beside the window of the private room, looking at the crowd in the Wenxuan Pavilion and the black appearance, he couldn't help but say: "Tsk, there are so many people here today, and I don't know if these people are coming to see who is fighting for my master, or are they coming to see my concubine and Pang Yunting?" ”
Hearing this, the corners of Chang Mu's mouth twitched, they were the most confused about this question, but did Cheng Jiang want to say this sentence in front of his grandfather?
Cheng Jiang is looking for abuse by himself, but don't bring them with him, if he angers his grandfather, not only Cheng Jiang will be punished, but even a few of them will be punished together, then they will be hard.
Chang Mu's heart just started, and he heard Zhou Xiuye coldly tunneling: "Chengjiang, are you the most idle?" ”
Cheng Jiang turned around and smiled at Zhou Xiuye: "Master, I'm not idle, I'm still waiting to see who will win this game of chess between the princess and Wenxuan Pavilion after all?" ”
Normally, Zhou Xiuye is the rarest person who calls Qiao Siwan "the princess of the world", but today, his expression is gloomy, just because Cheng Jiang is still questioning his Weiwei will not win Pang Yunting's stupid girl.
Chengjiang will Pang Yunting and his slight equals!
Cheng Jiang watched Zhou Xiuye's complexion change, and realized that he should have said the wrong thing, but he didn't know what he said wrong after all?
Usually when they call Qiao Siwan "the princess", his grandfather is just the happiest!
Zhou Xiuye glanced at Cheng Jiang lightly: "Cheng Jiang, I want to eat salty fried pine nuts the most, you go and see if this restaurant sells them, if not, go and buy some." ”
Hearing this, Cheng Jiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he would still think that his grandfather would punish him, but he didn't expect that he just wanted to eat pine nuts.
It was only this motive that Cheng Jiang repented, because Zhou Xiuye quickly added: "Buy more, remember to bring a shell." ”
Cheng Jiang's face immediately became bitter, he thought that he might understand that his grandfather really wanted to punish him, and he wanted to punish him for peeling the shelled pine nuts.
Just thinking about it, Cheng Jiang felt that his fingers had hurt so much!
Qiao Siwan and Pang Yunting were playing chess on the top floor of Wenxuan Pavilion, and beside them, there were two chess children sitting in each.
These four chess boys were cultivated by Wenxuan Pavilion, and two of them worked hard to record the history of the chess game.
The two chess boys pass each move of the chess battle to the chess players on the first and second floors, one for the black and the other for the white, and after receiving the news of the loss, the chess players will arrange that move on the oversized chessboard outside the first floor.
The oversized chessboard was built on the second floor, the chessboard was made of iron, and Gege understood that the chess pieces were made of magnets.
In addition to this large chessboard, there are also chessboards on every table in Wenxuan Pavilion, and next to these chessboards, there is also a chess boy, whose mission is to lay out every step of Qiao Siwan and Pang Yunting's chess battle on the chessboard.
In this way, whether the spectators enter the Wenxuan Pavilion or cannot enter the Wenxuan Pavilion, they have the opportunity to watch this game of chess.
Pang Yunting is a mover, holding the sunspot, and Qiao Siwan is responding to the battle and holding the white.
As soon as Pang Yunting fell into chess, she saw blood with a knife and approached Qiao Siwan, and she could see that she was most proud of her chess skills.
However, Qiao Siwan was not far behind, leaving Baizi behind, and gently resolved her danger.
