Because a foreign man wanted to come in, the eldest daughter-in-law led several female relatives to retire. Walking to the hugging building, Ling Mengchu suddenly poked his head out of the sitting room and said with a smile: "Hello ladies and gentlemen." "The crowd was so bluffed that they retreated.

Le Jiao saw Xia Ronghe behind him at a glance, her eyebrows immediately fluttered, and she forcibly calmed down, and called out shyly, "Rong and brother are fine." ”

Xia Ronghe came out of the shadows, bowed to everyone, and said gently and politely: "Hello ladies." Chong Lejiao smiled alone, did not speak, still retreated to the dark, please go first.

Le Yi felt that he had a kind face, and he couldn't remember when he had seen it, and while thinking about it, he saw Ling Mengchu staring at him, and his heart was happy, and he couldn't help but raise a smile and snort at him. Ling Mengchu blinked his left eye, bowed slightly and made a gesture of "please", "Ladies and gentlemen, please go first." His eyes kept falling on Le Yi, and when her figure disappeared into the flower path and disappeared completely, he quietly withdrew his gaze.

Cai Qi's courtyard has been ownerless for several months, and at this time, flowers and trees are overgrown, and only a two-foot-wide stone brick road can still be settled. The little ladies muttered in their hearts, and the second daughter-in-law complained in front of the eldest daughter-in-law that the servants in the house were lazy, so that the thorn Teng Man damaged the newly made clothes. Only Le Yi quietly, but picked a few apricot blossoms and played with them in his hands.

The precious and bright cloth and satin in the boudoir could not arouse Le Yi's interest, she leaned against the window, listening to the eldest daughter-in-law showing off the boxes of clothes and jewelry, but her eyes looked at the lonely sky through the flower window.

The sun is shining, the spring breeze is blowing, and the birds are struggling.

Finally, after lunch and tea soup, the second daughter-in-law mentioned the matter of returning home.

Le Jiao suddenly blushed, and timidly leaned into the eldest daughter-in-law's ear, and asked something, and the eldest daughter-in-law smiled and said, "I'll ask someone." If he is still in the house, I will have a way for you to speak. Then he summoned a maidservant, muttered a few words in a soft voice, and said, "Quietly, don't let anyone know." I see? ”

The maidservant is blessed, "Understood." ”

Le Jiao didn't want to go to see Xia Ronghe alone, and the three daughters-in-law looked like they were watching a good show, if they saw themselves talking to Xia Ronghe, maybe the entire Bianjing City would know. Only now did she think of Leyi's goodness, softened her temperament, and called Leyi's "eldest sister" for the first time.

She said, "Eldest sister, you can go with me." ”

Le Yi vaguely guessed that the person named Xia Ronghe was Le Jiao's favorite object. I have heard his name several times at the dining table, and when they just met in the hugging building, the expressions between the two were different from others. Le Yi was half-pulled and half-dragged out by Le Jiao, and she told her vigorously: "Stay and see Rong and brother, just stand far away...... No, no, no, you still stand next to me, if someone bumps into you, you can be generous. ”

In fact, Xia Ronghe had already recognized Le Yi, and he knew about the marriage between the Cai family's daughter and the Le family's son, so he was even more certain. The three of them had already gone out of the gate, but a little servant came to invite them, saying that Master Cai had bought an out-of-print book in Hangzhou and wanted to invite Lord Xia to appreciate it. Xia Ronghe was still stunned at the time, he was a military attaché, and he was not very interested in poetry, and thought that Cai Qi had something important to say to him alone, so he asked Liu Congguang and Ling Meng to leave first, and he returned to the mansion.

Unexpectedly, just turned the small door, and Le Jiao came out.

Behind her, she was followed by the little lady Le Yi of yellow silk that she had seen in Meifu last time.
