Qin Ying asked her brother rhetorically: "Mother told you, or grandma?" ”

"It doesn't matter, what matters is, what you two think." Qin Hao flipped through his sister's book casually, "You quarreled as soon as you met, but did you ever sit down and say a few words?" ”

Qin Ying took his book from his brother's hand and stacked them neatly: "What he said was to completely break off friendship with me." ”

"That must be a rush of words, and what you say in a quarrel counts? But in front of me and my brothers, he said that he liked you, and he didn't allow us to show it, for fear that we would scare you. Qin Hao said, "Sister, Pingli likes you very much." ”

Qin Ying bowed: "I know, he told me personally." ”

Qin Hao asked anxiously: "Then you told your grandmother and mother that you like him, and you have to deal with this matter yourself, what are you going to do?" ”

"I want to study, I want to be sensible, and I want to know the world." Qin Ying put his hand on the book on the side, his eyes were shining, "The nobles of the family want to defend the system for the first emperor for a year, the new monarch will ascend the throne, and the two mansions will revitalize the courts, so why should it involve marriage, so that people will criticize the disrespect for the first emperor, and this year, this matter should not be mentioned." ”

"That's what I said, but ......"

"Besides, it's hard to say whether he likes me or whether it's pity or sympathy, and I like him, whether it's gratitude or guilt, I'm also confused." Qin Ying said calmly to her brother, "People who like each other, why do they always have to quarrel when they meet, isn't it?" ”

Qin Hao said: "It's not that you ran into anything when you went back, you are worried about your brother." ”

Qin Ying shook his head: "I can't read big words, I don't understand how to get along with people." Although every quarrel has both reason and fault, but reflecting on myself, I am just cowardly and inferior, afraid that he will detect my shortcomings, so I always have a strong counterpart to cover up my weakness. ”

Qin Hao said: "If you don't study, it's insufficient? You are a woman, what are you doing studying, can you still be an official in the future? ”

As a younger sister, she sighed: "Among my brother's several good brothers, I'm afraid that only you think so, and I don't blame you, from grandpa to father and brothers, it's all like this, and the women of our family shouldn't be studying." ”

Qin Hao knew that he was speechless: "Don't be angry, brother doesn't mean that, I just want to say, if Zhu Pingli thinks you don't study, he won't like you at all." ”

My sister asked, "So, what does he like about me?" ”

Qin Hao was stunned: "This, how do I know this......"

Qin Ying said: "Just because we always quarrel, we never sat down to talk well, and even were hindered by our elders, and we couldn't ask for each other's liking, and this affection was beautified in my heart." What I like, maybe it's Zhu Pingli that I imagined, and he's the same, and their liking for each other is not real. ”

Qin Hao looked dazed: "Sister, what are you talking about." ”

Qin Ying looked at the book in his hand and said: "The women he has seen are all better than me, I don't know when I will be able to learn the knowledge that the little sisters of the Zhu family have, and the character of the third sister-in-law of the Zhu family will inevitably have an impact on him. ”

"You think too much, how can it be so complicated, ...... to be reasonable"

"Brother, I really like Brother Pingli and want to be his wife." Qin Ying said, "I haven't wavered, but I want to make myself stronger and better, and with self-confidence, I won't quarrel as soon as we meet, and I won't always think about covering up my shortcomings." It's rare that I can see myself clearly, don't urge me, let me study with peace of mind, I can't talk about marriage in this year, and then there are restrictions on etiquette, we can't go shopping hand in hand, as for meeting secretly, I look down on it even more, just wait for a year? ”

Qin Hao said: "But you should say this to him." ”

Qin Ying asked rhetorically: "I heard that he was in the academy, and he was angry and worked hard to study, right?" ”

Qin Hao nodded, very distressed; "I don't count my own study, but he still pulls me to study, that posture, as if he wants to test his fame, that is what he originally disdained the most."

Qin Ying smiled reassuringly: "That's good." ”

Qin Hao was still confused: "You two, what do you want?" ”

My sister got up and wanted to go to the boudoir, and smiled generously: "Isn't it, isn't it just the beginning?" ”

The night is getting deeper, the light in Pingli's bedroom is still brightly on, Huizhi came to see his brother with refreshments, stood at the desk and watched for a long time, and asked with a smile: "Mother said, she promised you, why is my brother still studying?" Brother, when are you going to pretend? ”

Pingli glanced at his sister: "What to pretend, in a few days, I will take the exam again, I am working hard, whether this can catch up with the next scientific examination, it depends on this year." ”

Huizhi looked at his brother in surprise: "Didn't you pretend to scare your mother?" Do you still want to do scientific research? ”
