006. First acquaintance

The eldest brother smiled silently, and only looked at Hu Qing with his eyes.

The third elder brother Yinzhi grinned and said, "Hu Qing, you are here to give you face today." ”

Hu Qing hugged his fist at all the elder brothers: "Hu Qing, thank you, elder brothers, for your face!" ”

The fourth elder brother Yinzhen didn't smile at the corner of his mouth, and said in a light tone: "It's not okay if your hand is so big!" ”

Hu Qing heard it in his ears, knowing that he was clearly talking about Jin Ka, but actually had an opinion on his rejection of his invitation, and the brothers in the room had invited him, but they were all rejected by himself, and it was inconvenient to explain and didn't want to mention this matter at this time, so he smiled and said nothing.

The fifth elder brother Yinqi looked Qing'er up and down and said: "'Prodigy' Hu Qing, at the age of eight, was famous in Jiangsu and Zhejiang for his calligraphy and painting of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, amazing!" There was some suspicion in his tone.

Hu Qing smiled slightly, looked at him and replied extremely sincerely: "The fifth elder brother has already received the yellow flag camp when he is eleven years old, and the seventh elder brother has already received the yellow flag camp at the age of ten. Only two elder brothers can be these 'amazing' three words! Hu Qingwan didn't dare to be. ”

Seventh Elder Brother Yinyou heard it with a puff of joy. "You know everything! Well, interesting! As he spoke, he looked at Hu Qing, when he was a teenager, how old was he? Two years old? Or three years old?

Eighth Elder Brother Yinxi said with questions: "These clothes are all designed by yourself?" You also played the song "Spring River Flower Moonlit Night" just now? He couldn't have imagined that this 'prodigy' and 'little God of Wealth' could still play a good piano, and he was so versatile.

Hu Qing looked at him and smiled, and replied: "Yes, let the brothers laugh." ”

Ninth Elder Brother Yinyu raised a pair of phoenix eyes, stared at Hu Qing and said, "You understand women very well!" "With disdain, a man not only understands women's tastes and hobbies, but also understands women's minds!

Hu Qing looked at him and saw that he was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, the robe was embroidered with intricate embroidery, his body was long, his hands under the sleeves of the robe were white and slender, his bright lips were finely broken teeth, his face was soft and powdery, and his phoenix eyes were shining. Sure enough, he is handsome and uninhibited, and he is the most handsome of the elder brothers.

Hu Qing slowly withdrew his smile, pulled up his face, and slowly replied word by word: "It's not as good as Brother Jiu!" ”

As soon as the words came out, the elder brothers were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, Yinyi was drinking tea, and when he heard Hu Qing's words, he almost didn't squirt out the tea in his mouth, and he choked and coughed.

Yinyu's face was slightly red, and his eyes swept towards Hu Qing obliquely.

Hu Qing turned a blind eye. Originally, who didn't know that Brother Jiu lingered in the flowers and worked women. "Sheng" is famous, and it's hard to know it!

Tenth Elder Brother Yin'er hugged Hu Qing while laughing, and said, "Good boy, you are not small, dare to say this about my ninth brother!" ”

Hu Qing didn't seem to expect the tenth elder brother to make such a move, so he frowned lightly and pushed the tenth elder brother away, and said with a straight face: "It's just the truth." "Xindao: I haven't said you yet, and your ninth brother has a virtue!

Hearing Hu Qing's words, Yinyu's phoenix eyes bloomed with a little spark, and his handsome face collapsed.

Rong Yu hurriedly took over the conversation, his face full of embarrassment. "Brother Jiu, Qing'er is this temper, don't be surprised, I'll apologize for him!"

The thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang and Rong Yu had the best relationship, and immediately stood up and played Tai Chi: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, the words collided for a while, don't go to your heart, Brother Jiu is still young." ”

The fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen and Hu Qing are the same age, and walked up and patted Hu Qing on the shoulder: "Hu Qing, how old are you?" ”

Hu Qing glanced at him coldly and replied reluctantly: "Twelve." ”

Yinzhen smiled and asked again: "The same age as your grandfather, when is your birthday?" ”

Hu Qing looked at him with eyebrows, "I won't tell you!" After speaking, he saluted the elder brothers: "Brothers, feel free, forgive Qing and don't greet you anymore." "Turn around and want to leave.

Seeing that he was leaving, Yinyu stretched out his arm and grabbed the sleeve of his robe, his face was unwilling and impatient. "Did you provoke the master and say that he would leave?" He's gone, do you want to save face? How will the people in this room see people in the future?

Hu Qing frowned, put the sleeves of his robe in his arms, and asked unhappily: "Brother Jiu, what do you want?" "I am disgusted in my heart, how can these people do this kind of manipulation!

Yinyu didn't think about what he wanted, but subconsciously wanted to save face, so when he saw that Hu Qing was leaving, he subconsciously grabbed the sleeve of his robe.

The two of them didn't give in to each other, but Hu Qing was wearing a cotton robe, if it was as thin as a summer coat, it would have been torn up a long time ago. The two of them were more energetic, and no one gave up, and the rest of the people were a little surprised, looking at the two of them in a daze.

Hu Qing was caught by him, ashamed and angry, and shouted: "Let go!" ”

Rong Yu and Yinxiang looked at the two of them, looked at each other and then stood up and walked over.

Seeing that the two were deadlocked, Yinyu shook his head, stood up and paced to Yinyu's side, and shouted in a low voice: "Lao Jiu, let go!" Then he smiled at Hu Qing and said, "Hu Qing, ninth brother, he drank too much today, don't care." You can go in a hurry, you don't have to greet us. After speaking, he looked at Hu Qing fixedly, and then looked at everyone in the room with a smile on his face.

Yinyu looked at Yinyu, opened his mouth to say something, and after being glanced at coldly by the starling brother, he let go of Hu Qing and turned around and sat back at the table.

Hu Qing looked at Yinxi, smiled back, turned around after a slight bow, and walked past Rong Yu and Yinxiang.

Hu Qing walked to several tables in a row and greeted, and the people next to him saw that Qing'er didn't even pay attention to Brother Jiu, so they felt that Qing'er didn't give himself face before, and there was nothing to worry about when he invited him to his house.

Bearing the red and uncertain face of Brother Jiu, after a short time, everyone left the table one after another, and Hu Qing also sent everyone away according to the courtesy. In the end, he sent the elder brothers away, and his attitude was still the same as before, as if the dispute with the ninth elder brother had not happened.

Today, all the elder brothers can understand and see clearly, although Hu Qing is only arguing with Lao Jiu, in fact, he is the same as these elder brothers, and there is absolutely no flattery. In his Hu Qing's heart, these elder brothers, like those Beijing nobles, are his future business buyers. Nothing else! Thinking of his humble and unpretentious words and cold and detached attitude, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, "It's really rich!" ”

Rong Yu was worried that Hu Qing didn't know what Brother Jiu was like, and he expected that Hu Qing would provoke Brother Jiu today, and Brother Jiu would definitely not give up.

Rong Yu's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping made Hu Qing couldn't help laughing. "Brother, you won't be afraid of Brother Jiu, right?"

"Qing'er, how good are you as a ninth elder brother, and you dare to mess with him?" After speaking, he shook his head and sighed.

"I'm really not afraid of him, isn't he just a brother!" Qing'er pursed her lips.

"You haven't seen his methods yet, it's enough ......" Rong Yu paused and stopped talking, hiding a soft cough. Although he is not used to some of the practices of Brother Jiu on weekdays, he still disdains to talk about the rights and wrongs behind his back.

"Hehe, it's enough to be yin! Right? How could I not know who he was? "I don't know how he is going to attack him? The corners of Hu Qing's lips already had a light smile. Tomorrow will have an effect, and the days after that should be clean! No one will fight the Hu family's idea again! Things are so smooth, thanks to Brother Jiu's 'cooperation', who asked him to provoke the incident first, although the plot he designed was not used, but it had the same effect, he really matched the temperament in the message. It's really not your average irritability.

"You'd better guard against him. He is the master of anything! ”

"Don't worry, he can't do anything to me, brother," Qing'er leaned close to her brother's ear and whispered, "Just now, I did it on purpose!" "Deliberately done for everyone to see. Qing'er swallowed this sentence and didn't say it, this goal has been achieved, and now the nobles in the city should know their position and know what kind of 'no one in their eyes' they are.

Rong Yu was taken aback, and pointed at Qing'er in a tone: "How dare you?" Provoke him! "If it was put in the past, just now Hu Qing spoke to him, Yinyu's stinky temper was an outbreak in an instant, and now he is actually forbearing, it is really embarrassing for him!

"Alright, let's go home! Don't think about it, don't talk about it! Qing'er pulled Rong Yu, who was crying and laughing, to the front of the car, obviously, my brother didn't understand what he meant, where was he targeting Brother Jiu, he was making a show for all the nobles, including all the brothers.

Of course, this time he is on the opposite side of Brother Jiu, but what's wrong with this!

Yinyu and Yinyu rode in parallel, the female dependents of the family had already taken a step back to the house, the two came to the door of Yinyu's house, Yinyu turned over and dismounted, threw the reins of the horse to the little maid and turned around.

Yinyu watched Yinyu walk towards the house, as if he remembered something, hurriedly smashed the horse to catch up, and then turned over and pulled him down, and instructed in a low voice: "Don't act rashly, that Hu Qing is not simple!" ”

Yin Yu squinted his phoenix eyes, then pulled up a big smile, and said loudly: "Don't worry, starling, he is a child, what do I have to worry about him!" ”

Yinxi said with a calm face: "You know the severity, he is Hu Zhongzheng's heart and soul baby!" You have provoked Old Man Hu, and it is impossible for us to fight for him again. ”

Yinyu put away his smiling face, looked at Yinyu, and said impatiently: "I understand!" Will I go back to sleep at home? ”

Yin Yu smiled and let go, and waved his hand again, "Go, go!" After speaking, he turned his head and left, Yinyu stood up and looked at the back of the starling, but he was not as anxious to return to the house as before, until he saw the starling enter the mansion, and the housekeeper Qin Daoran saw that he was slow to enter the door to meet him and pick him up, so he returned in a daze.

In the next few days, Qing'er didn't receive any more invitations, but things didn't go in the direction Qing'er hoped.

In the study of Hufu, Feng held the carrier pigeon in his left hand, and took out a note from the small bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg with his right hand and handed it to Hu Qing: "Young master, there is a letter from Henan." ”

After Hu Qing took it and looked at it hurriedly, he fell into deep thought, and after dragging on for these days, it was time to go.

"Wind, get ready, we'll go to Henan the day after tomorrow."

"Yes! Young master. He agreed neatly and turned to go out.

At this time, Xue hurriedly walked into the hall and said to Hu Qing: "Young master, someone from the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion has come." ”

The person who came was a middle-aged man, who saluted Hu Qing respectfully, and then said, "Young Master Hu, our fourth master is invited!" The sedan chair is now waiting outside the house. ”

Hu Qing smiled bitterly, the sedan chair was brought, the fourth elder brother came prepared this time, it seems that he can't go. "Well, let's go!"

The sedan chair came to an ordinary house, and the person from before came over and said to Hu Qing in a deep voice: "Young Master Hu, please come with me." ”
