Qiu Buyan had no choice but to follow, and along the way, Qiu Buyan was like a happy little sparrow, chattering about the reward given by the palace when her relationship with Xiao Yin was decided, and said that she was invited to see it at night, and she could take whatever she liked.

Qiu Xiyin said coldly, "No need."

Qiu Buyi wanted to grab her hand again, Qiu Xiyin avoided it again, Xiujin stepped forward to block Qiu Xiyin, and said angrily, "The fourth girl will do something to our girl again, please forgive the slave and maid for offending."

Qiu Xiyin laughed, Qiu Buwei subconsciously wanted to get angry, and reacted suddenly, looking at Qiu Xiyin aggrievedly, "Third sister, I mean well!" ”

Qiu Xiyin glanced at her coldly, "Since you have good intentions, then why do you need me to pick them, just give me all those things, the things rewarded in the palace are naturally good things, I like them all."

Qiu Buyi was angry, Qiu Xiyin ignored her, Gu Zi walked forward, Qiu Buyi hesitated in place for a while, and then followed.

After that, Qiu Buyi didn't quarrel with her anymore, the two quietly entered Mrs. Qiu's courtyard, Qiu Shixing was also there, and after a bow, Mrs. Qiu greeted Qiu Xiyin, "Yinyin, come and sit here."

Qiu Xiyin went over and sat down as she said, and Mrs. Qiu asked lovingly, "Have you eaten at your aunt's?" ”

Qiu Xiyin smiled playfully, "I've eaten it, but I can eat it again."

Mrs. Qiu smiled and patted Qiu Xiyin's hand, "This kid, your cousin is still here, and I'm not afraid of your cousin's jokes!" ”

Qiu Xiyin smiled sweetly at Xie Jiamian, "Cousin Nine won't laugh at me, cousin?" ”

In the past five years, Xie Jiamian has risen a lot, clear and calm, and smiled slightly when he heard the words, "Yinyin's body is weak, it's good to eat more."

Qiu Xiyin smiled proudly at Mrs. Qiu, Mrs. Qiu couldn't stop laughing because of her, and was busy setting the meal, and said, "Brother Mian just said what kind of wood, and made a piano for you and your little uncle, your grandfather is full of praise, you go and take a look."

Qiu Xiyin was pleasantly surprised, "Really, where is it?" ”

Mrs. Qiu ordered the maid to put the piano forward, but saw that the piano was made of paulownia wood, unpainted, took the most primitive natural color of paulownia wood, the shape was simple and heavy, made a round head and adducted double arc waist, for the "Fuxi style", the seal book was engraved above the back pool of the piano "the avenue is invisible, and the sound of the big sound is sound".

With a slight pluck, the sound of the piano was warm and loose, pure and perfect, Qiu Xiyin suddenly smiled and narrowed a pair of big cat eyes, "Thank you, Cousin Nine!" ”

Qiu Shixing pointed to plucking the strings and pointed to the piano pond and said, "Yinyin, you listen carefully, the sound of this piano comes from between the two pools, its back is slightly rumbling like a shallot leaf, the sound is about to come out and narrow, lingering, there is an aftertaste, this is the most wonderful place of this piano."

When Qiu Xiyin heard it, he smiled and said, "Sure enough, it's still the ninth cousin who is clever."

Xie Jiamian said, "It was also a coincidence that I came across this good wood, according to the locals, this sycamore has been used for thousands of years, used to make pianos, no matter who does it, the sound quality is excellent."

Qiu Xiyin was about to speak, but Qiu Bu said coquettishly, "Cousin Jiu, what about mine?" ”

Xie Jiamian was stunned for a moment, and Mrs. Qiu said unhappily, "I ask you to practice the piano on weekdays, but you never care, what kind of piano do you want?" ”

"With my ninth cousin's piano, I must practice hard!" Qiu Bu looked at Xie Jiamian with a scowling eye, "Cousin Nine, didn't you just say that there are two?" Give me a fight, too, you are not allowed to be partial."

Mrs. Qiu shouted, "Sister, don't be rude!" ”

Xie Jiamian hurriedly got up and waved his hands, "The fourth cousin forgives the sin, I have already told the fourth uncle, it's not good to be dishonest, if you get good wood next time, you must send it to the fourth cousin."

Qiu Bu pouted and was unhappy, Qiu Xiyin instructed Xiujin to put the piano away, and said with a smile, "Cousin Ninth is the capital who just returned to the capital this year?" ”

Xie Jiamian bowed to the enemy again, and replied, "It was Xie Jialong who returned at the end of last year, and I found an errand in Liubu after the beginning of spring this year."

Qiu Xiyin's expression moved slightly, "Six? Doesn't seem like it's easy to get into, right? Cousin Nine is amazing! ”

Xie Jiamian said with a smile, "The name of the Xie clan is just a shadow, so my cousin laughs."

At this time, the maid delivered the meal, and no one cared about the hatred anymore, so she could be regarded as revealing this paragraph.

After lunch, Xie Jiamian was about to say goodbye, he had just entered the Sixth Department, he had the least qualifications, he had to do all kinds of chores, he was so busy that he couldn't touch the ground, and he took the lunch break to come to Qiufu.

Mrs. Qiu saw that he really had something to do, so she didn't keep it anymore, and ordered the maid to prepare a box of snacks for him to bring, telling him that no matter how busy he was, he couldn't starve himself and hurt his spleen and stomach.

Xie Jiamian couldn't refuse, and said thank you, Qiu Xiyin said, "I'll send my cousin."

Qiu Bu hurriedly said, "I'll send my cousin too."

Mrs. Qiu frowned in displeasure, and didn't say anything, only advised, "Go and get an umbrella, don't let the sun shine."

So, Xie Jiamian walked on the left, Qiu Xiyin and Qiu Buyan each took an umbrella and walked on the right.

Xie Jiamian only felt very embarrassed, and for the first time hoped that time could pass faster, Qiu Xiyin asked calmly about his foreign assignment, so Qiu Buyan also asked.

Xie Jiamian became more and more embarrassed, and finally got out of the weeping flower door, and hurriedly said, "The two cousins of Lao have sent each other off, and the foolish brother has said goodbye."

Qiu Xiyin and the two returned the salute, watched Xie Jiamian leave, turned around and walked back, the two did not speak again, and each went back to the courtyard without mentioning it.

……

……

In the evening, Xie Tanwei rushed to Qiu's mansion and asked to see Mrs. Qiu.

In the morning, several members of the Xie family and Chu Lang hurriedly set the approximate etiquette, and the first important thing was naturally the big media.

Xie Tanwei was afraid of delaying time, and after the big media decided on Mrs. Qiu, he hurried to the capital with lunch.

Mrs. Qiu listened to his intentions, and after being stunned for a moment, she was overjoyed and said with a smile, "This time around, you and Princess Chiyang have become a couple!" At that time, I looked at you, and I thought that I didn't know what kind of fairy daughter in this world could be worthy of you.

Looking at the princess, what kind of son can be worthy of the princess, I never thought that the two of you would be a couple! That's called a natural pair! ”

Xie Tan laughed slightly, "Mrs. Tai should remember to tell the eldest princess these words as they are, and the eldest princess will allow it as soon as she hears it, and Mrs. Tai's thank you gift will be in your hands safely!" ”

His smile was quaint, and his complexion was a few points better than three years ago.

Mrs. Qiu was secretly glad that she was so beautiful and beautiful, and she was the heavy pupil of the Xie family, how could her granddaughter, who couldn't say where it was good, and what was not good, could be worthy? Only the demeanor of Princess Chiyang is not considered humiliating, but fortunately I haven't had time to say it, otherwise wouldn't it be humiliating?

"I know what you said, I'll look through the yellow calendar, and go to Ningjun Wangfu if I find a good day."

Xie Tan leaned over and smiled flatteringly at her, "Mrs. Tai doesn't need to turn over the yellow calendar, I have already turned it, tomorrow is a good day!" There will be no better day like tomorrow in the next month! ”

Mrs. Qiu looked at him amusedly, "Oh? ”

Xie Tanwei took her hand and shook it, "Mrs. Tai, as long as you do a good thing, every day is a good day!" Pity me in my twenties, I don't even have a daughter-in-law now, so naturally I can be fast, even if it is a day and a half! ”

Mrs. Qiu nodded his forehead with amusement, "Okay, okay, tomorrow will be tomorrow."

Xie Tanwei smiled at her flatteringly, "Mrs. Tai, you are really the best in the world as Yinyin said!" I'll polish your ink! ”

Mrs. Qiu also went with him, Xie Tanwei personally laid out the prayer post for Mrs. Qiu, polished the ink, and took the pen and presented it with both hands, "Mrs. Tai, please."

Mrs. Qiu was made lose her temper by him, so she wrote a letter of worship and instructed her personal mother-in-law to send it, and asked, "Fourth Prince Xie, is it okay?" ”

"Yes, yes," Xie Tanwei diligently helped Mrs. Qiu to stand up, "Now that the sun is going down, it's not so hot, and I accompany Mrs. Tai to walk in the garden, which is also a piece of my filial piety."

Mrs. Qiu scolded with a smile, "What is your filial piety, you are relying on me, and you refuse to leave if you have to reply, right?" ”

Xie Tanwei just smiled, "Mrs. Tai, there is a threshold here, you should be careful of your step."

The summer evening breeze blew on his body with a trace of heat, Xie Tanwei was covered with sweat after a while, Mrs. Qiu said with a smile, "The heart is calm and naturally cool, General Feng and the King of Ningjun have already responded, how can Princess Rong and the eldest princess embarrass you?" ”

Xie Tanwei said honestly, "That's the case, but I'm in a hurry, and I can't control it!" ”

Mrs. Qiu listened to it funny, and patted his hand comfortingly, "You are a good boy, and the princess is also a good child, don't worry, you will have a smooth future and grow old."

Xie Tanwei's heart was hot when he heard this, and he couldn't help but hold her arm, tilt his head and lean on her shoulder, "Mrs. Tai, you are so good!" If only you were my great-grandmother."

Mrs. Qiu smiled, "This is a mess of generations, and I can't help it."

The two laughed, and saw the old lady Hua walking over with Qiu Mingzhu, Xie Tan hurriedly stood up straight and leaned over to salute.

Mrs. Hua hurriedly stretched out her hand to help, "It's all a family, the fourth son doesn't have to be polite, I haven't seen him in the past three years, and the fourth son is getting more and more handsome."

Xie Tanwei likes people to praise him for being born well, and he smiled when he heard the words, "The old lady is younger than three years ago, and the next day the next day the junior must ask the old lady for a maintenance prescription, and I will call my mother to use it when I go back."

Mrs. Hua looked at him, her expression became more and more satisfied, but there was a bit of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law more and more interesting taste, Mrs. Qiu said indifferently, "It's not too early, you go back quickly."

Mrs. Hua couldn't, so she had to take Qiu Mingzhu to salute and leave, Mrs. Qiu saw clearly, Xie Tanwei's eyes didn't sweep Qiu Mingzhu from beginning to end, too, who would glance at the female dependents with his eyes on this good man's brother.

However, Qiu Mingzhu lowered his head shyly and timidly when he saw Xie Tanwei, and then looked at him from time to time, thinking that others would not notice!

How could she have such a granddaughter!

Mrs. Qiu's heart was blocked for a while, and she didn't want to go to the garden, "Let's go back too, it's time for dinner, come on, go and call the second lady to come and eat with your uncle."

He said to Xie Tanwei again, "It stands to reason that when you come back from a long trip, you should have a reunion dinner with us, but first, you don't have time to prepare, and secondly, Brother Shen sent someone back to say that you won't come back tonight to eat, and you will make up for it tomorrow."

Xie Tanwei held her arm affectionately, "What Mrs. Tai said, I was impatient to deal with a large table of people, so I wanted to accompany Mrs. Tai to have a quiet meal, just me and Mrs. Tai, not even the second sister is allowed to go!" ”

Mrs. Qiu smiled, and the two went back to the flower hall, where Xie was already waiting.

Mrs. Qiu said to Xie Shi, "Ah Miao, you accompany me to wash my hands, Chonghua, you wait a while, Yinyin's great-grandfather should come back in a while."

Xie Tanwei responded, Mrs. Qiu took Mrs. Xie to the main house, and said that Mrs. Hua took a fancy to Xie Tanwei for Qiu Mingzhu, because the matter involved Qiu Mingzhu's reputation, she only said that it was Mrs. Hua's thoughts, and said cryptically, "Your aunt is tall, she was smart and beautiful when she was young, and her heart is inevitably higher, and everyone is relatives, once the matter spreads, it will be embarrassing to meet."

Xie nodded and said, "Grandmother, don't worry, I know."

Mrs. Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, if she said it, it would inevitably mean that the relatives who rushed to the door would leave, and it would be appropriate for Xie Tanmiao, the sister of her in-laws.

Mrs. Qiu said a few more words, and went to accompany Qiu Shixing and Xie Tanwei with dinner without mentioning it.

After dinner, the mother-in-law who went to deliver the letter came back and brought back the post of Rong and the eldest princess, Qiu Shixing knew that Xie Tanwei and Feng Zhinan were about to get married, and he was also very happy, and praised it again and again as a match made in heaven.

Rong and the eldest princess agreed to the visit of Mrs. Qiu tomorrow on the post, and said that the lotus flowers in the palace of Ningjun were blooming just right, and invited Mrs. Qiu to take Qiu Xiyin and Qiu Buyan sisters to enjoy the flowers together.

Mrs. Qiu sent someone to inform Qiu Xiyin and Qiu Buyan, and several people gossiped again, Xie got up to say goodbye, and Xie Tanwei also left together.

Out of Mrs. Qiu's courtyard, Xie Shiping stepped back and told Qiu Mingzhu about it, Xie Tan was slightly shocked and blurted out, "No wonder I met them so coincidentally today!" ”

Xie frowned, Xie Tanwei told the coincidence in the garden, and sighed, "No wonder I was a little unhappy when I looked at Mrs. Tai, it turned out to be this reason."

Xie Shi said, "That is the case, you will leave early tomorrow morning, hide some suspicions, if there is anything, I will send someone to tell you."

Xie Tanwei is not close to her, so he naturally doesn't want to talk to her more, so he shouldn't mention it.

……

……

Qiu Xiyin said that she had just come back, she was tired, the weather was hot, and she didn't want to go out, and Mrs. Qiu didn't force her, so she led Qiu Buyan to Ningjun Wangfu the next day.

Qiu Xiyin got the news that Xie Tanwei had left Qiufu early in the morning, and couldn't help but groan, Mrs. Qiu went to Ningjun Wangfu, as fast as half a day, and as slow as at most in the afternoon, according to his temperament, how could he wait for news in Qiufu, and Xie Tanwei got up early and left, could it be that something happened?

She hurriedly sent Lan Shijiu to inquire where Xie Tanwei went, Lan Shijiu came back soon, but Xie Tanwei went to the bookstore first, and then entered the teahouse near Qiufu and did not come out again.

Qiu Xiyin estimated that he was like waiting for news in a teahouse, and going to the bookstore was at most a stop by to buy a book, he was not waiting in Qiu's mansion, but he went to the teahouse to wait, there must be an article in it.
