Qing Dai followed Wang Yang and they returned to the city when it was close to the curtain, seeing that it was not early, Qing Dai refused Zeng's and returned to Dai Hat Hutong without having dinner at Wang's house. When I arrived at the Spring Courtyard, the courtyard was quiet, so Zhu Yun picked up the dried peach huā at the door, and prepared to go back to the house with a dustpan.

"Zhuyun, the girl is back." Tao Huā shouted Zhu Yun, and Zhu Yun put down the dustpan and opened the curtain to let Qing Dai enter the house.

"The fourth girl hasn't come back yet?" Qing Dai changed into a light blue home-style shirt, covered with a small jacket embroidered with white plum, and walked out of the clean room.

Zhu Yun said: "I came back early, and I was invited by my wife again." ”

Qing Dai wondered, she had just come back from outside and was called away by Xiao Feng, what had happened?

Just thinking about it, the door curtain was lifted, Qingwei poked her head in, and saw Qingdai shouting "Third Sister" and walking in.

"Come in and sit. Have you had fun today? Qingdai asked people to serve tea, took a plate of five sè dried fruits and put them on the small table, and beckoned Qingwei to sit down.

Qingwei's expression was a little strange, and she said in a low voice: "Don't mention it." Originally, I made an appointment with the second girl of Tinglan and Liuxi Restaurant to go to Tingfangyuan, everyone was in good spirits, it was rare that the second sister didn't chatter, but I met Ji Chun, Qin Ge's granddaughter Qin Zi and Zhou Danniang's sister-in-law Zhou Cuiniang in Tingfangyuan. Since I ran into it, I went up and said hello. I don't know which tendon is wrong in Ji Chun, saying that there are many people and asking us to go to the lake together. As a result, when the boat reached the island in the middle of the lake, it shook twice when it stopped.

In a panic, the second sister fell into the water......"

"Second sister is fine, right?" Qingdai put down the tea pot in her hand and looked at Qingwei.

Qingwei pouted, "Why aren't you surprised at all?" ”

"If the second sister really had something big, you would have been shouting so much that you could hear it all over the yard by now, besides, if something happened, the Wuju was so close to here, why didn't I hear the wind at all." Qing Dai smiled faintly, "Don't sell it, what happened later?" ”

Qingwei snorted lightly: "I heard the call for help, and it happened that someone next to me came ashore, so someone jumped into the water and saved the second sister." Third sister, you can't guess who saved the second sister? ”

"Who?"

"Ji Chun's eldest brother." Qingwei covered her mouth and laughed twice, her eyes rolled around, and she came to Qing Dai's ear, and whispered with some schadenfreude: "I heard Tinglan and Qin Zi say that there were her brother, the three young masters of the Ji family, and the two grandsons of Chengguo Gong among the group of people who went to the island with Brother Ji Chun. I can see the grandson of the grandfather of the country who came back to our family last time, he is so good-looking, I wonder why the second sister just fell into the water at that time? Hey hey"

Lianhuā hasn't given up on Yuko yet? Since she has a heart, how could she use such a faint trick to attract Yu Zidu's attention? Or was she murdered? Qingdai was wondering, and heard Qingwei say again: "Although Ji Chun's eldest brother is famous, he is engaged to be the daughter of the head of the Wang family in Langya, Shandong, and will get married this summer." He saved his second sister, and both groups of people saw it. The Ji family also sent someone over just now.

My mother asked me and the second sister to go over and ask, and the second sister still stayed with my mother, thinking that Aunt Liu should also come here at this time. ”

The daughter of the Wang family will never be small for others, and Qinglian's identity is not worthy of the eldest son of the Ji family. Even if Ji Chun's eldest brother is famous and can take a concubine, then Aunt Liu can be willing to be Qinglian to be a child, Qinglian will not be willing to be Ji Chun's sister-in-law, not to mention that she may not be a genuine sister-in-law.

In the main room of Jiyaju, Qinglian sat on the chair tremblingly, listening to Xiao Feng's sharp reprimand and choked with tears: "At that time, someone pushed me behind my back, I really didn't mean to pretend to be overboard." ”

Xiao Feng's look at Aunt Xiao Liu's Qinglian's resentful and aggrieved and pitiful appearance of crying alone is really pitiful, and it really looks like her fairy aunt who pretends to be virtuous. 1 Xiao Feng snorted coldly, "Why didn't others fall into the water, but you fell alone?" ”

"I don't know, I really don't know anything!" Qinglian pretended to be innocent, but Xiao Feng didn't think so that he was in his bones, and he pretended to be pure, phew, the mother and daughter were virtuous. At this time, the matter has already come out, and the Ji family has sent people over to discuss it because of their reputation, so as to show that they have the grace and are willing to take it on their own. Fortunately, it was a concubine who fell in, if it was really the concubine of the Shangguan family who fell into the water and was rescued by his son, I am afraid that she would not come to the door so soon, but let Qinglian marry the son of the Ji family as a concubine, it is too cheap Liu Hanyan is a slut.

The more Xiao Feng thought about it, the more angry he became, looking at Qinglian and crying, he thought about it for a while, and said: "The Ji family came and said that the eldest son of his family was willing to be responsible, but the eldest son of the Ji family was already engaged, and the other party was the daughter of the head of the Langya Wang clan of the Shandong clan, and his identity would not be small." Our family is no better than the Wang family, so I have to wronged you. ”

Qinglian was stunned, thinking of the young man who saved him, although he looked good, but compared to the person next to him, regardless of his status, he was 108,000 miles behind.

is the momentum of Meng Changan, he can't compare! No, she doesn't want it, even if Master Ji is the imperial history of Zuo Du, it doesn't mean that his son can be a big official! Why wasn't he the one who saved her?

"No, I'm not marrying Ji Wu. I don't marry "......" you don't marry? If you don't marry Ji Wu, who else do you expect to marry? 1 Xiao Feng sneered in a low voice: "Is the prince of Yu Guo? Or is it the grandson of Qin Ge Lao? ”

Thinking of the scene before falling into the water, Qinglian secretly hated, Qingwei wouldn't, and Tinglan wouldn't. As for Zhou Cuiniang, I have a very close relationship with Danniang, and Cuiniang has always looked at Danniang as the horse's head, and I don't think it will be unfavorable to me. Only Ji Chun and Qin were left

…

Qinglian's mind flashed one picture after another, she saw the person hún was haunting her dreams, although she knew that it was impossible for her and Yuzi, but she couldn't help but pound when she saw him, so when she saw Ji Chun's ambiguous eyes when she showed off that she and Yuzi were cousins, she became angry, and deliberately said that Yuzi came to Shangguan's house to pay a visit, it must be Ji Chun behind her back! Ji Chun is jealous of her!

Qinglian opened her mouth to explain to Xiao Feng, but seeing that Xiao Feng's face was sèyīn with a hint of ridicule in her face, she swallowed back when the words came to her mouth, what is the use of saying it, could it be that the concubine of the Ji family calculates me, why calculate? How do I explain it? Even if it is explained, what is the use? Can you save your reputation or do you want to keep the overboard from happening?

Qinglian was in a hurry, and the maid reported that Aunt Liu was coming, her eyes fell on the door, and she was relieved to know that the savior was coming.

Aunt Liu entered the house and saluted Xiao Feng, and just sat down beside Qinglian, and the door reported that the master had returned home.

Xiao Feng glanced at Aunt Liu, Aunt Liu smiled at Xiao Feng silently, and the two of them fought with lightning in the air, then they each withdrew their gazes and got up to greet Shangguan Hong.

Xinxiang opened the curtain, and Shangguan Hong walked in, panting slightly, "Why did you call me back from Lord Xing's mansion in a hurry?" ”

"Master, drink saliva and rest before talking." 1 Xiao Feng helped Shangguan Hong sit down, thoughtfully took the tea from Xin Xiang's hand and handed it to him.

Shangguan Hong took a big sip and put down the teacup, "Say, what's wrong?" ”

Xiao Feng told Shangguan Hong about Qinglian going out to play in the water, Shangguan Hong's eyebrows frowned, until he heard that the Ji family sent someone to propose marriage, his brows relaxed slightly, and he thought about the feasibility of marriage with the Ji family.

Qinglian saw Shangguan Hong's thoughtful appearance, and whispered, "Dad, don't marry your daughter to Ji Wu." ”

Shangguan Hong's eyebrows were raised, and he said dissatisfiedly: "If you are careful, where will you cause this kind of thing?" Even if those with identity who are present don't talk about our family's face, it doesn't mean that those who serve won't leak out, and they can't hide it. Master Ji is upright and has a strict family style, I have also seen Ji Wu's kid, he knows books and etiquette, and he is an honest child...... Although with your identity, you don't have to be small for others, but people like Ji Fu are rare. ”

Xiao Feng's heart became more and more uncomfortable when he heard Shangguan Hong's praise like this, and Suo Xìng sat next to him silently.

Qinglian was aggrieved, pulled Aunt Liu's sleeve, and looked at her biological mother for help, "Auntie, I don't like Ji Wu, Ji Chun is not right with me, she will not be able to get married in three or four years, and I will not have a good life when I get married." ”

Aunt Liu patted Qinglian's hand soothingly, nodded at her, and then turned to Shangguan Hong and said: "Today's incident is purely an accident, I think that the eldest son of the Ji family is born with a chivalrous heart, and he will ignore the defense of men and women when he is eager to save people." At this time, the Ji family was also afraid that our girl's reputation would be damaged, so they would propose such a policy of rights and interests. ”

"The so-called clear person is self-purifying, and the second girl also has a clear conscience, if she responds to the Ji family, she will not be able to lose a good reputation. Now that the canon has been changed, Ji Gongzi is so famous, at most, he is marrying a wife and a concubine, he is about to marry the Wang family, marry a new fù and take a concubine at the moment, and pass it to the Wang family, just when our girl is forced to marry, how can our girl have a good life in the Ji family? It was a good thing, but in the end, several families were unhappy, and the gains outweighed the losses. What do you say, sir? ”

The Wang family is a family of scribes, although there is no one from the Wang family who is in power now, but his family has also been out of the cabinet old and capable officials, and there are many protégés, and the heritage and foundation are deep, in order to be able to catch up with the Meng family, it may not be a good thing to offend the Wang family.

Shangguan Hong nodded lightly: "This is also true." ”

Although Xiao Feng was unwilling to marry Qinglian into the Ji family to increase Aunt Liu's strength, but seeing that the two of them were opposed, they changed their minds, since they were unwilling to enter the Ji Mansion in every way, how could she let the two of them solve this matter happily?

"Master, Lord Ji has a very good relationship with Qin Ge Lao, and Qin Ge Lao is the first among the ministers... has been in-law with the Meng family, and the Wang family will not fail to give the Meng family face. ”

Xiao Feng reminded Shangguan Hong that it was much more powerful to catch the Meng family than the Wang family, who was estimated to be separated from the relationship and now did not hold real power. Shangguan Hong wants to climb up, and this matter of children's relatives can also become a help. @。
