"County Lord." Mrs. Wang got up from the couch and bowed to Xie Yanhe: "It is my Wang family who has failed the Xie family, and the old man has made amends to the county lord on behalf of the Wang family." ”

Xie Yanhe was shocked, she hurriedly helped Old Madam Wang up, and said softly, "What is the old lady doing?" The past is gone, and we still have to look forward. It's just that my nephew has no fate with Miss Guifu. ”

After Xie Yanhe finished speaking, the corners of her lips were slightly curved, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were dyed with a bit of seriousness, and she said: "If the old lady invited me here today, just to make amends, then I would never dare to come to the door again." ”

Xie Yanhe's soft and hard attitude successfully made Mrs. Wang swallow back the words of apology, and she had no choice but to return to the Luohan couch and instruct the maid to serve tea: "My master's protégé is in Yu Hang, and the county lord will try the Longjing before the rain sent back." ”

Xie Yanhe took a sip of the teacup, her peach blossom eyes were shining, she looked at the stiff female relatives in the room, and said with a pleasant face: "Why don't you sit down?" Am I making everyone uncomfortable? ”

When everyone heard this, they sat down in a sparse manner, and Mrs. Wang endured a huge sense of shame, and showed a flattering look at Xie Yanhe: "Where did the county lord say, you can come to the banquet, our Wang family is full of glory." ”

Xie Yanhe first put on an attitude of hiding needles in the middle, because she didn't want the Wang family to think that she was easy to handle, but now that she sees that the Wang family is interested, she doesn't want to be a villain.

Regarding Mrs. Wang's overtures, Xie Yanhe pursed his lips and smiled, which can be regarded as revealing the past: "The eldest lady is too polite, the Wang family has been scholarly for generations, and the literary style/essence, I came to the door today in order to get a dip in the aura of the Wang family." ”

From the beginning of entering the mansion, Xie Yanhe noticed that the eyes of one of the female dependents always seemed to fall on her, and when the corner of her eyes swept over, that look disappeared again.

But when it comes to what Mama Wang said that day, you don't have to look at it, Xie Yanhe should also know who this person is.

"The county lord has an overreputation. Your maternal grandfather is a great Confucian in the world, and your mother is the first talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased a little, Second Lady Wang took over Mrs. Wang's words with a smile. The county lord of Yonghe is the future queen, even if the two families of Wang Xie were in discord in the past, but at this time and that time, the second lady of Wang did not dare to take a stand in front of the county lord of Yonghe.

For the second lady Wang's straightforward whisker and horse, Xie Yan's face is no different, and even the shallow curvature of the corners of his lips has not changed.

There was a momentary freeze in the atmosphere.

Mrs. Wang's heart was anxious, and she glanced at her absent-minded daughter, and when she saw that the eldest daughter was indifferent, she had to look at the younger daughter again.

Wang Wanrong received her mother's eyes, stepped forward, and said innocently: "Sister Xie, my heart is happy when I see you, can you accompany me to our back garden to play?" ”

Wang Wanrong's routine made Xie Yanhe suddenly feel a sense of familiarity, if she remembered correctly, at the peony banquet she organized, Jiang Yiren was also close to herself.

Without waiting for Xie Yanhe to agree, Mrs. Wang scolded the young girl: "There are no rules! What Sister Xie, you should be honored as the county lord of Yonghe. ”

Wang Wanrong's body shrank back, her big eyes were full of crystal tears, and she looked like she wanted to cry or not.

Xie Yanhe coldly watched the mother and daughter sing a double reed, and there was no fluctuation in their hearts. But for the sake of Mrs. Wang's face, she couldn't tell Mrs. Wang to get off the stage, smiled slightly, and beckoned to Wang Wanrong: "You are Wanrong, right?" It's really a neat child, not only good looking, but also this lively temperament that I like. ”

Wang Wanrong secretly glanced at her mother, and after getting Mrs. Wang's approved eyes, she walked slowly to Xie Yanhe's side, and saluted: "The county lord is well, Wanrong will greet you." ”

Xie Yanhe took off the colorful butterfly jade pendant hanging from his waist and helped Wang Wanrong tie it to his dress: "I don't have any good things here, a gadget, take it for you to play with." ”

With the eyesight of Mrs. Wang, she naturally knows how rare this five-colored jadeite is, not to mention the lifelike carving, it is this "white, green, yellow, red, purple" intertwined, ice transparent and moist, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a city.

Old Madam Wang hurriedly excused herself and said, "County Lord, where can she accept such a valuable gift from your child's family." ”

Hearing this, Xie Yanhe's peach blossom eyes had a hint of amazement, she touched Wang Wanrong's hair lovingly, and chuckled: "Old lady, I almost became an aunt and nephew with this child, and it is also a fate." ”

Xie Yanhe held down Wang Wanrong's hand that wanted to relieve Yu Pei, and said gently and undoubtedly: "Where is the reason to come back from this thing that was sent." Wanrong, this is given to you by Sister Xie, you can keep it well. ”

Wang Wanrong glanced at her grandmother in embarrassment, and after her grandmother nodded, she bowed to Xie Yanhe: "Wanrong thanked the county lord for the reward." ”

"What a courteous child." Rao is Xie Yanhe is very dislike the Wang family, but he has a little sincerity for the lively and intelligent Wang Wanrong.

Although she was instructed by her mother, Wang Wanrong had a good impression of the elegant and elegant Yonghe county lord, and now she saw that the Yonghe county lord treated her very gently and kindly, and Wang Wanrong was even more flattered.

She sneered, "County Lord, would you like to go for a walk in the garden with me?" ”

Old Madam Wang couldn't figure out Xie Yanhe's attitude, and scolded her granddaughter: "Wanrong, don't be presumptuous!" ”

Hearing this, Xie Yanhe got up from his couch and said to Mrs. Wang: "Old lady, I saw the Xifu Begonia in the garden blooming, so I wanted to stop and take a look, but it was not easy to talk to you. Don't worry about my faux pas. ”

Xie Yanhe's words were exhaustive.

Mrs. Wang knew about her family affairs from her family, and she invited the county lord of Yonghe to come over today, which had a different purpose. Now that the county lord of Yonghe took the initiative to speak, Mrs. Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the taste in her heart was even more complicated and difficult to distinguish.

If her goal is achieved today, with Qingyun's strength to protect her shortcomings, I am afraid that even her mother will not recognize her in the future. But the palms and backs of the hands are meat, since His Majesty issued the will of the seal, his granddaughter began to think about tea and dinner, just a few days, the thin shape of the bones, Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it, knowing that she couldn't do it, but also for her granddaughter to fight for it.

"The county lord is really empathetic, and the old man is ashamed." Old Madam Wang pressed the chaotic thoughts in her heart, and said to her eldest granddaughter who was still in a daze: "Ruofu, you help me and accompany the county lord of Yonghe to take a walk in the garden." ”

Old Madam Wang's call suddenly brought Wang Ruofu, who was out of the world, back to her senses, she stepped forward, grabbed Old Madam Wang's arm, hung her head, and her thick eyelashes covered the emotions surging in her eyes.

Xie Yanhe's heart was stunned, he took the initiative to take Wang Wanrong's arm, and said softly: "Let's go, aren't you going to see the begonia flowers?" There is Lao Wanrong's sister leading the way in front. ”

In addition to Mrs. Wang, even Mrs. Wang stayed in the house, and after a few people walked away, Mrs. Wang sat down on a chair as if she had collapsed.

Second Mrs. Wang sighed in her heart: I knew why I had to do it today. But the Wang family is both prosperous and lossy, she didn't dare to have the idea of gloating, handed the untouched teacup to Mrs. Wang, and said with relief: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, with your mother here, you must be able to make your wish come true today." ”

Mrs. Wang was not optimistic, she reluctantly bent the corners of her lips, and said bitterly: "I hope so." ”

Second Lady Wang was silent. In fact, it can be seen from the confrontation between the mother-in-law and the county lord of Yonghe just now that the county lord of Yonghe is not a good talker, and now the second lady Wang only hopes that her mother-in-law can impress her with affection.

On this side, Wang Wanrong led the way, Xie Yanhe followed Wang Wanrong's side unhurriedly, and walked for about half a pillar of incense before arriving at the back garden of the Wang family.

At this time, it is the turn of spring and summer, the garden is full of purple and red, in addition to Xifu begonia, there are peony, yueji, pomegranate and other flowers, competing for beauty, fragrant garden.

Xie Yanhe and Mrs. Wang sat down as guests, and the maids successively brought exquisite and delicious refreshments to the host.

Mrs. Wang pointed to the fruit in the glass cup and said: "This is a cherry brew that has been poured in the well water, which is the most to quench the heat and quench your thirst, so the county lord may wish to try it." ”

The blue glass jar is filled with light red cherry juice, which makes people feel refreshed just by looking at it.

Xie Yanhe picked up the glass cup, and his fingers as white as jade reflected the green glass, like green onions reflecting snow, beautiful.

Mrs. Wang lived to this age, and the beauty that impressed her the most, in addition to the late Mrs. Jingping (now called Mrs. Xie Guo), was the only one in front of the county lord of Yonghe.

But compared with Gu Miaoyin's coldness and dustiness, dignified and self-controlled, the county lord of Yonghe has a touch of agility and charm, when he is not smiling, he is like a Gu shooting fairy on the mountain, with a posture of ice and snow, and a comfortable and noble spirit; When you smile, it is like a hundred flowers blooming, and your eyes are bright, like a goblin that bewitches people's minds. It's a sight to behold. Such a fairy-like and demon-like beauty, where can a man refuse!

Mrs. Wang glanced at her granddaughter without a trace, although she was also like a flower, but she was just a very ordinary beauty, even if her granddaughter successfully entered the palace, would she definitely get what she wanted?

The answer to this question was subconsciously avoided by Mrs. Wang.

"The cherry stuffed in your mansion is moderately sweet and sour, with a clear fragrance, and it is even more delicious than what I have drunk in the palace."

Just when Mrs. Wang was distracted, Xie Yanhe had already finished drinking a cup of cherry brew, she looked at the woman beside Mrs. Wang with a pair of sparkling eyes, smiled gracefully, and said with a hint of admiration: "I have long heard that the eldest lady of the Wang family is proficient in the way of easy teeth, and after tasting this cherry brew today, I know that there is no vanity under the fame." ”

"The county lord of Yonghe has a good reputation, her children's family, she has nothing to do to eat, and she is ugly in front of you." Old Madam Wang had long heard how tricky this Yonghe County Lord was. When he came back from Jiangnan, he brought twelve cooks alone, and although his granddaughter had some real skills, she couldn't get into the eyes of the county lord of Yonghe.

Xie Yanhe chuckled and complimented: "The old lady is too modest, where is your young lady who is ugly?" It's clear that it's hidden. ”

Old Madam Wang's arm secretly poked her granddaughter under the table, but her face was not revealed, and she smiled humbly: "Mountains and rivers, it seems that Ruofu has met a bosom friend today."

Xie Yanhe's eyes were so sharp, she had already seen Mrs. Wang's movements, but she hadn't figured out the path of the Wang family yet, so she smiled quietly: "It's my honor to be Miss Wang's bosom friend." ”
