In the evening, as soon as Yan Ran returned to the house, Huaxiu came to invite her to Hongfu Courtyard for dinner.

Yan Ran couldn't help but feel strange, Yan Mansion has always had its own way, and it is not a New Year's holiday, why did he suddenly have a family banquet?

Besides, in the past, the family had a reunion dinner, and no one would think of her, but today it is unprecedented.

Yan Ran asked, "But what's the matter?" ”

The painting said: "The slave and maid are just here to pass the word, but the people next to them don't know." ”

Painting and embroidery is a first-class maid by Wen's side, how could she not know the reason, her words flickered, and it was clear that she had something to hide.

Yan Ran couldn't ask anything, and she couldn't remember any major events at this time, so she could only see walking.

Yan Ran then changed her clothes, and with full questions, she followed the painting and embroidery to Hongfu Courtyard.

Master Yan, Wen and others were there, and after Yan Ran arrived, the family was in order.

Old Madam Yan seemed to be in a good mood and didn't care about Yan Ran's lateness.

She motioned for everyone to sit down, and then spoke: "Today is You'er's birthday, my wife is the east, everyone celebrates You'er together." ”

Yan Qiyou wore an indigo robe, sitting beside Mrs. Yan like a hill, with a fat face and a bulging face, looking at the table full of delicacies, with light in his eyes.

Only then did Yan Ran understand that today's family banquet was to celebrate Yan Qiyou's birthday.

On the day of her birthday, no one remembered that Wen even gave her a "big gift", almost sweeping her and her mother's spiritual position away.

Yan Ran thought about this, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little cold, and her eyes were full of frost.

"Sister, where's my gift?"

Yan Qiyou's voice interrupted Yan Ran's thoughts, Yan Ran raised her eyes and looked over coldly.

Yan Qiyou suddenly felt his whole body tremble, he didn't dare to smile anymore, and the hand that was originally stretched out immediately retracted, and put it on his lap in a regular manner, his eyes dodged and he didn't dare to look at Yan Ran.

Yan Yao deliberately concealed this matter from Yan Ran before, just to wait to see her jokes, so she deliberately asked loudly at this time: "Eldest sister, today is You'er's birthday, you won't be unprepared, right?" ”

Yan Qiyou is the only heir of the Yan family, and he is the tip of Mrs. Yan's heart, Yan Ran doesn't remember his birthday, and she hasn't prepared a gift for him, so it is inevitable that Mrs. Yan and Old Man Yan will be displeased.

Yan Ran smiled calmly, and looked at Yan Qiyou with a gentle attitude, but it made Yan Qiyou's scalp tingle subconsciously.

"After this birthday, You'er will be eight years old, and she is no longer a child. As a man, he should focus on his studies and shine on the lintel. So, I prepared a set of books for You'er to take the exam. This set of books was compiled by Mr. Qingyang of the Xu family in Qizhou, and it is very sought-after, and the bookstore is not yet available, so I asked Mr. Xu to get it. However, Qizhou is far from Anyang, and this book has not yet been delivered, so it is too late to give it to You'er today. ”

Yan Ran did cheekily ask her for a book through Master Xu's guilt, but it was for Wen Rong'an, and now in this situation, she can only use it to make up the number first.

Yan Yao just wanted to ridicule each other and accuse Yan Ran of lying, after all, the thing is not there, why can she say whatever she wants with empty words and white teeth?

Yan Qiyou was the first to shout dissatisfiedly: "I don't want it!" ”

He studied in the school every day, and he was already dizzy when he saw the book, so he didn't want any books!

Old Man Yan listened to Yan Ran's words, and was originally very happy.

Since the scientific expedition was held in Shengguo, the champion has been produced every three years, and nine times out of ten they are from the Xu family in Qizhou.

The year he participated in the examination, it coincided with the flood in Qizhou, and the people of the Xu clan did not have time to refer to it, so the champion fell on him.

Mr. Qingyang is the leader of the Xu family, and he is the grandparents of Master Xu, and his knowledge is very high.

Master Yan was relieved that Yan Ran had this thought, but Yan Qiyou shouted no?

Master Yan couldn't help but slap the table angrily, and scolded: "What your eldest sister said is right, you are not too young, you should have some achievements in schoolwork!" But you only know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and your playthings are demoralized, what can you do in the future! ”

As soon as Master Yan said this, Wen and Yan Yao were silent together, not daring to say anything more, for fear that Master Yan's anger would burn on them.

Because Mrs. Yan loves her grandson, after Yan Qiyou was born, she forced Master Yan to hand over Yan Qiyou to her to raise.

Master Yan valued filial piety, although Wen quarreled and begged him, he finally fulfilled his mother's wish.

Yan Qiyou grew up next to Mrs. Yan and was not close to Wen and Yan Yao.

But Yan Qiyou is the only son of Master Yan after all, and he is the future support of Wen and Yan Yao, so in order to please him, the mother and daughter both gave him some food and play.

Receiving such a smooth gift, Yan Qiyou was naturally happy, but Master Yan was very unhappy.

There was Yan Ran's test-taking books as a comparison, which made Master Yan even more upset, so he vented out.

Seeing that Yan Qiyou was reprimanded, Mrs. Yan was distressed, and said in a rough voice: "Okay, okay, don't say a word, today is You'er's birthday, no one is allowed to upset my good grandson, let's eat!" ”

Only then did Master Yan ease his face and pick up the dishes and chopsticks.

Although Mr. Yan attaches great importance to etiquette and adheres to the rule of "food does not speak or sleep", Mrs. Yan was born in the countryside and does not care about those stereotypical etiquette, so the atmosphere at the table is very relaxed.

Master Yan didn't deliberately hold on anymore, and asked Yan Ran: "Ran'er, can you solve the misunderstanding with Miss Cui?" ”

Yan Ran was slightly surprised in her heart, Master Yan also ordered her to apologize to Cui Jingshi yesterday, how could it be a misunderstanding today?

Yan Ran thought about it and replied: "There is no major incident between my daughter and Miss Cui, and it has been said today." ”

Master Yan nodded, thoughtful.

After today's court, Cui Ge Lao personally found him and apologized to him for his granddaughter's inappropriate words and deeds.

Only then did Master Yan realize that Yan Ran was a victim, and he had suffered a lot of grievances, otherwise how could he have apologized in person?

Fortunately, he listened to Yan Ran's words and didn't rush to Cui's mansion, otherwise if this matter spreads, it will be rumored that the girl in Yan's mansion was bullied by the girl in Cui's mansion, but Yan's mansion still apologized, isn't it too spineless, making people laugh off their big teeth?

However, he didn't dare to accept Cui Gelao's apology, so on the grounds that the child was ignorant, the two sides played fifty boards each.

Master Yan thought about it and advised: "Even if they are classmates, they should also support each other, and they must not quarrel again in the future." ”

Yan Ran responded obediently: "Yes, my daughter remembers." ”

"Ran'er, eat vegetables."

Wen gave Yan Ran a chopstick dish, interrupting the conversation between the father and daughter, with a harmless smile on her face, it was really unimaginable, what a vicious heart was hidden under her hypocritical skin.

Yan Ran raised her eyebrows slightly, Wen's appearance of being courteous and attentive was really uncomfortable, there must be some tricks waiting for her, she had to guard against it.

After supper, the crowd dispersed.

Master Yan went to the study in the front yard, and Yan Yao followed him to Wen's courtyard and complained: "Mother, let Yan Ran's little slut hide today, she must be very proud!" ”

Wen thought about what had happened in the past few days, thought about it, and said to Yan Yao lovingly: "What are you anxious about, the girl of the Cui family is not a good person to deal with, Yan Ran has offended her, and she has her own bitter fruit to eat." We just need to use our strength to fight and use Cui Jingshi's knife to deal with Yan Ran. ”

Although Yan Yao was ruthless, her mind was not mature and she couldn't keep up with Wen's thoughts.

She asked puzzledly: "Mother, I have always been at odds with Cui Jingshi, how can I make her work for me?" ”

Wen nodded at her and said, "You don't need to be friends with Cui Jingshi, you just need to let out some rumors to her, and she naturally knows what to do." For example, Yan Ran's little cheap hooves are used to seducing men......"

Yan Yao suddenly realized, her eyes lit up: "Yes, since Cui Jingshi has calculated Yan Ran and the Wen family's eldest cousin, it must be that there is no wind and no waves, maybe these two have already hooked up and become adulterous!" ”

Wen shook his head and said disdainfully: "Wen Rong'an is just a thing in the hands of the eldest princess, what kind of storm can she set off?" ”

She said, smiling inexplicably: "Isn't there still Yan'er, I heard that that day, it was Yan'er who helped the little slut out of the siege." ”

Yan Yao was stunned and muttered, "Cousin Yan? ”

Wen Chengyan is noble, handsome, and graceful, how many girls in Anyang City fall in love with him, and Yan Yao is no exception.

Although the two are real cousins, it is not uncommon for cousins to get married.

Yan Yao had illusions about Wen Chengyan in her heart, and she didn't want him to have anything to do with Yan Ran, even if it was just a rumor.

But what Wen said is right, if Yan Ran and Wen Rongan have anything to do with it, at most, it means that the two are in love and have nothing to do with others.

But if Yan Ran is involved with Wen Chengyan, won't he become the public enemy of all the girls in the entire Anyang City?

At that time, if she doesn't make a move, or even Cui Jingshi, someone will clean up Yan Ran.

*

In the afternoon, riding and archery lessons.

Because the Chongwen Museum originally only taught riding and archery lessons in the East Chamber, the shooting range was also in the East Chamber.

Suddenly, under the will of Emperor Sheng, the school hall could not open up a separate place for the girls to learn riding and archery, so they could only take classes with male students.

The girls learned horse archery for the first time, and it was also the first time to take lessons with men, and they couldn't help but be a little excited and a little apprehensive, so they discussed it all morning, and no one remembered the feud between Yan Ran and Cui Jingshi anymore.

At noon, the girls changed into their easy-to-move riding outfits, and compared or admired each other.

Yan Ran also went to the other room to change her clothes, wearing an aqua blue dress with slim sleeves, which made her petite and delicate figure look a lot more sassy, which provoked Qingxuan to praise again and again, and bluntly said that her eyes were glued to her body and she couldn't take it off.

Qingxuan said this and did the same.

The master and servant walked outside, Qingxuan stared at Yan Ran as she walked, and one accidentally tripped over the table and stepped on the corner of Yan Ran's skirt.

only heard a tearing sound, and the clothes on Yan Ran's body were torn, one by one, scattered.
