Shunwei Hou Mansion, the main courtyard.

The Qi family was having dinner in the hall of the main courtyard, with two large tables, and there was no other sound except for the sound of chewing, and even the servants were silent, which showed that the rules were strict.

After the elders put down the chopsticks, the juniors also stopped one after another, and when the meal was withdrawn, the next person gave the juniors another sweet soup, Jin Yanmin asked people to prepare sweet soup every day, and the young people ate at the same speed as them, where can they eat enough, but the rules can't be paid, so the desserts after the meal are changed almost every day.

So much so that the pastries and sweet soups of Shunwei Houfu are famous for their deliciousness and the richest variety.

After the meal, the people in each room went back one after another, but Qi Xialu still sat still, and Qi Xiashui also sat silently.

Jin Yanmin saw that he knew in his heart, this was something to say to himself.

"Xia Lu, Xia Shui, come in with grandmother." Jin Yanmin got up and took the lead in the main room, and sat down in the upper head of the outer room, "Although Xia Lu has just entered the women's school, she has performed very well in all aspects, I heard that she can't eat with her classmates every day, it seems that she has made friends." ”

"The young ladies of the Zhenguo Mansion and the British Mansion are both knowledgeable, and it is very good for you to make friends and discuss with each other." Jin Yanmin rarely showed a smile, and his eyes were full of love, "You have been detained by me for so many years, and you are too indifferent and cold at a young age, and you lack the vitality that a girl of your age should have." ”

"Grandmother can't change you, and I'm a little reluctant in my heart, but I see that you have only been in women's school for a few days, and your expression is more than before, and my grandmother is very relieved." Jin Yanmin looked at Qi Xialu with a look of love.

"Not only Aunt Xiaoxin and Sister Qinghe, but Xiao Miao'er is also excellent." Qi Xialu hooked the corners of her lips and said, "Grandmother, my granddaughter wants to get her grandmother's consent today." ”

"What's the matter?" Jin Yanmin asked suspiciously, after all, this granddaughter never asked for anything.

"Tomorrow is off, we want to travel with our classmates." Qi Xialu said bluntly.

Jin Yanmin frowned, "Where to go?" ”

"Chu Yanyu's family."

"Chu Yanyu?" Jin Yanmin really couldn't figure out who this person was.

Qi Xiashui, who was sitting and listening on the side, looked eager, which really made people anxious, "Grandmother, it's Chu Yanyu from the fourth class, and the room she and Mu Han live in is what we borrow for our daily meals." ”

"Chu Yanyu lives in Chujiagou on the outskirts of Beijing, and her family has a cherry tree, accompanied by Aunt Xiaoxin, Qinghe, Xiao Miao'er, and Mu Han."

"Tomorrow, Chu Yanyu will show us the way, and we will take people to protect our own safety." Qi Xiashui added in detail.

"Grandmother, do you agree?" Qi Xiashui secretly glanced up at Jin Yanmin, and his liver trembled.

"So you notified me directly, in fact, it's already decided?" Jin Yanmin frowned.

"It's not." Qi Xialu shook her head without changing her expression, "The main thing is that it is in a hurry, and it happens to rest tomorrow." ”

"Actually, Chu Yanyu mainly wanted to invite Sister Qinghe, because I always ate what they brought for lunch, and I was a little reluctant to go, we just happened to eat together and took advantage of it." Qi Xialu said.

"Do you want to go, then?" Jin Yanmin regained his expression and asked in a low voice.

"Well, it's a good opportunity, my granddaughter really hasn't traveled with her peers other than her family." Qi Xialu looked at Jin Yanmin and hooked the corners of her lips slightly, "Does grandmother agree to let me go with the fourth sister?" ”

Looking at Qi Xialu's smile, although it was very shallow, Jin Yanmin softened his heart and nodded, "Go ahead, grandmother will send a few rough envoys to you." ”

"Thank you, grandmother." Qi Xialu and Qi Xiashui said in unison, the former looked calm, and the latter was happy.

After Qi Xialu and Qi Xiashui left, Jin Yanmin sighed.

"Madam, shouldn't you be happy?" Jin Yanmin's personal mother, Yan Mama, laughed in a low voice, "After the fifth lady went to the girls' school, she was a lot more flexible." ”

"yes." Jin Yanmin nodded, "Xia Lu was raised by me since I was a child, the second is a stubborn person, after the second daughter-in-law went, she didn't want to marry again, Xia Lu didn't have a mother to spoil her since she was a child, and lived with me, a serious old man." ”

"People are generally knowledgeable, but there is less liveliness and agility of the little girl's family, I didn't think much about it before, I was busy with women's studies, and it was not easy to teach when I turned around, hey, I was also wrong, I trained her as my successor since I was a child, and I paid less attention to others." Jin Yanmin said with some regret.

"Today, Miss Wu can take the initiative to mention it, which shows that she wants to go very much, and now that she has entered the women's school and is with a girl of the same age, she will slowly change." Mama Yan said with relief.

"yes." Jin Yanmin softened his expression when he mentioned the scene just now, "It's not bad to be in a class with Xia Shui now, go out together in the morning and come back together in the evening, Xia Shui is a bastard, Xia Lu can be more cheerful with her, and she goes with them." ”

"Ahh ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Qi Xialu glanced at Qi Xiashui and said.

"Either way, it turned out really good." Qi Xiashui hurriedly hugged Qi Xialu and praised vigorously, "I said that as long as you go out, grandmother will definitely agree, you don't know, grandmother is very kind to you, and almost always answers." ”

"When did I ask my grandmother for something?" Qi Xialu asked.

Qi Xiashui smiled, "Isn't this an analogy for me, anyway, grandmother is usually kind to you, when we were young, we studied together, and almost all of them punished us, so I haven't seen you punished." ”

"That's because I'm doing well." Qi Xialu said seriously, "Grandmother has nothing to punish me, on the contrary, the fourth sister, you are too jumpy and lazy." ”

Qi Xiashui glared at Qi Xialu, "You will say bad things about me in front of me, just like the elders training the juniors, if I didn't know your character, I would have turned my face." ”

"I'm not wrong." Qi Xialu muttered, "It's obviously the truth." ”

Qi Xiashui hugged harder, "I can't tell the truth, I don't want to lose face." ”

"For your sake, it's all up to you to travel tomorrow, and I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow." Qi Xiashui smiled, "I decided to make some pastries by myself in the evening." ”

"Don't." Qi Xialu's face changed, and she said as seriously as possible, "If you bring your pastries tomorrow, it will be to throw your face to others and step on the ground, think about the distance between you and Qinglian, please recognize the reality." ”

"Of course I do." Qi Xiashui said hatefully, "I also have a careful mind to let Qinglian guide me." ”
