"Third girl, I also had a rudeness in what happened just now, forgive me!" Ji Cheng apologized first, and looked at Qing Dai anxiously, for fear that if she didn't say it well, she would be ruined.

Ji Cheng didn't think that he met an acquaintance, and he didn't pay attention to the master and servant back then, where do you remember it? You must know that it was the girl back then, so he wouldn't say those words. At this time, it was not only Yuzi period, but even Yuzi was familiar to her, and he was even more afraid in his heart.

Qing Dai glanced at Ji Regret, too lazy to care about it, these identities are not ordinary, they are really eye-catching when they gather here, it is better for her to leave as soon as possible.

Ji Gongzi said seriously. It was just a small misunderstanding, but now it's fine, please allow me to retire first. Yuzi smiled and nodded, "Okay, be careful on the road, ask the old lady on your behalf!" Qing Daifu saluted and left in the car.

"Big brother, why don't you know that you still have a friendship with the Shangguan family?" Yuzi asked inadvertently.

Yu Zidu watched Qingdai's carriage leave, and retracted his gaze: "I met in Jiangning." "Ah" Yu Ziqi secretly said that it is not good, in Jiangning, it was not five years ago, no wonder I didn't pursue the matter of "Hairpin Huā Tu" last time I remembered "Hairpin Huā Tu", Yu Ziqi suddenly reacted, did people already know that the book was not their own, but stolen, wouldn't it be very shameless?

Looking at his eldest brother, Yu Ziqi made a bitter face and stammered and asked, "Then that "hairpin huā picture" ......"

Yu Zidu smiled: "I'm here today to celebrate Qin Man and Ji Wu, let's go to Chunjiang Tower first!" Yu Zidu walked forward as he spoke, and Yu Ziqi hurriedly followed, flattering: "Brother, you wait for me, don't miss this when I tell you." Brother ......,........." Shangguan Xijin List titled, and the news spread to Shangguan Mansion. 1 Xiao Feng immediately reported to the old lady, saying that he would buy a few tables and invite relatives and friends to come and sit, but the old lady thought that there was no need to be too public, so she only let her first set up a table in her own family and then sent red envelopes to the people in the house.

At the evening banquet, Shangguan Hong was happy, drank two glasses of wine, felt something for a while, and said to his eldest son: "This high school is indeed your work of hard study for many years. But you still have a long way to go. Dad has come to the deepest experience over the years, and he must guard against arrogance and rashness in life and work, seek progress in stability, and those who are eager for quick success and quick profit have not gone far enough. "The child remembers his father's teachings." Shangguan Xi has always admired his father, so he will remember every word Shangguan Hong said.

"Jer, your eldest brother is in high school this time, and it will be your turn next. You've made a lot of progress in the past two years, but it's not enough. You are not as good as your eldest brother who must know that diligence can make up for clumsiness, don't waste time on miscellaneous studies. "Shangguan Jie was young and uncertain, and he entered the sī school last year to study, made some friends, and devoted a lot of effort to studying, which was not as good as before.

Shangguan Jie lowered his head embarrassedly, "The child knows that he is wrong, and he will definitely work hard to study in the future." When Liu heard Shangguan Hong's words, he smiled and said: "Master, when the second young master was in Qingyang, he followed Mr. He to study, and Mr. He emphasized poetry and essays rather than exam-taking articles. The eldest young master studied in Bailu Academy for those years, and his foundation is more solid than ordinary people. There are many people in Jingli, and the second young master can't be distracted. You are busy with things, and the eldest young master is busy with the exam and no one is urging him, so he will inevitably have laziness. The concubine looks like it's better to invite a gentleman for the second young master at home? Xiao Feng was not happy. Qingwei was sent to the girls' school by her own daughter, and she also took a Qingdai. This time I have to ask Mr. at home, Shu Jiang is much higher than in sī school, the price of goods in the capital is high, please a good gentleman is several times higher than those places in Qingyang, and you have to take care of food, housing, and transportation, everything is not money.

"Mr. Hong's sī is also one of the best in Dongcheng, although there have been no champions or lists, but there are several people on the top and bottom lists. At that time, Brother Xi also studied at Bailu Academy for three years, and it was not good to change Brother Jie to dislike Sī Juku. Shangguan Jie was a little embarrassed by Xiao Feng's words, and said to Liu's family: "Mr. Sī Shuzhong has taught tǐng well, and my aunt doesn't have to worry about it." Mr. preached and taught the profession to understand Huò, and how much I learned was my own business. The environment of the eldest brother in the academy is much worse than the current sī school, and I am not dissatisfied, so I don't need to ask Mr. alone. ”

Xiao Feng smiled proudly, but he was afraid that Liu would be unwilling, so he asked the old lady what he meant, "Mother, what do you see?" ”

The old lady said: "On weekdays, Fengzhi checks their homework, so let's listen to Fengzhi's meaning." Shangguan Hong agrees with Liu's opinion, Brother Jie's talent is limited, and he is not as self-disciplined as Brother Xi, and the world of Shangjing will inevitably look at Huā, and his heart will follow the wild. Mr. Teaching alone is more likely to teach him according to his aptitude, and there is also someone who specifically urges him to study, killing two birds with one stone.

"Brother Jie is different from Brother Xi, it is okay to ask a gentleman to teach alone. But the right gentleman has to get along well, read it on Mr. Hong's side first, and I'll ask about it in the second half of the year. ”

Xiao Feng and Liu each took a step back, and they both obeyed Shangguan Hong's wishes.

Shangguan Hong raised his eyes and saw Qingdai on the opposite side who bowed his head silently, hesitated for a moment, and called her.

Qing Dai was surprised: "Dad, what's the matter with calling your daughter?" "Wang Tao won the top 49 this time, drive Ming'er to go to Wang's house to send a congratulatory gift to your cousin for your father." "Hmm!" Qingdai didn't expect Shangguan Hong to deliberately tell her Wang Tao's ranking, was he concerned about himself?

Qingdai didn't show much enthusiasm and joy, she was still so calm as water, Shangguan Hong was surprised in his heart. He thought that Qingdai would show some joy even if she wasn't overly happy, but she didn't expect her to be just slightly surprised, and she returned to normal in an instant. This kind of calm and calm in the event of an accident is very rare.

The next day, Shangguan Hongxiu Mu specially called Qingdai to the study, "Ding said a few words and handed over the congratulatory gift to the Wang family to Qingdai.

"I'll bring my dad to both of you. 、，

Shangguan Hong nodded, sent Qingdai back, lowered his head and wrote the official document. Qing Dai Fufu retreated, but heard Shangguan Hong behind him say again: "If you want to stay longer, you can come back after dinner." ”

Qing Dai stopped and looked back at Shangguan Hong, "Talk about Daddy."

Qing Dai left, Shangguan Hong put down the brush in his hand, looked at the door and was stunned for a long time, shook his head slightly, and picked up the pen again and continued to write.

It was almost noon when Qing Dai arrived at Hehuā Hutong, and before she could knock on the door when she got out of the car, the courtyard door opened.

Wang Yang walked out with a man dressed in a small group of purple huā dark lines, and the two saw Qing Dai standing by the carriage at the door, Wang Yang shouted unexpectedly: "Dai girl!" ”

The man next to Wang Yang also saw Qing Dai, his eyes flashed with surprise for a moment, he took away the evil aura of his body, and his tightly pursed mouth softened, "Qing Dai." ”

Qing Dai was stunned, she didn't expect to meet Hua Shaoyan at the Wang family, and she didn't expect that when they officially met for the first time in five years, he would call his name familiarly.

Feeling the strange gaze cast by Wang Yang, Qing Dai was uncomfortable, and saluted the two of them awkwardly: "Big cousin, Hua Gongzi." Hearing Qing Dai's call to his own Hua Gongzi, Hua Shaoyan's expression that seemed to be the same for ten thousand years loosened slightly, but his beautiful eyebrows were slightly raised, showing his slight displeasure and suspicion, "I remember that you called me Ninth Brother all day long." ”

Looking at the expressionless Hua Shaoyan and the surprised Wang Yang, Qing Dai only felt that the corners of her forehead were jumping, and she hadn't seen her for five years, and Jiu Niangniang had changed from a bewitching beauty to a cold and paralyzed face. If you are paralyzed, why are you so direct? Do you have to confess in front of your cousin?

Qing Dai pulled the corners of her mouth and laughed dryly, ignoring Hua Shaoyan's protests, and hurriedly explained to Wang Yang: "Mrs. Hua and grandmother are old acquaintances, and the concubine met Hua Gongzi when I went to Mingyu Courtyard with my grandmother in Wuzhou a few years ago. At that time, I was still young and ignorant, so I didn't shout big or small."

"I didn't expect Brother Hua to be an old acquaintance with his cousin." Wang Yang smiled and agreed, "Tomorrow's appointment, Wang Mou will go to the appointment on time." Hua Shaoyan said: "In this case, Hua will leave today." ”

"Brother Hua, go slowly!" Wang Yang said goodbye to Hua Shaoyan.

Qing Dai lowered her eyebrows, stood sideways and made away, half-bent her knees. Hua Shaoyan walked to her side and stopped, and whispered to himself: "I haven't seen you for five years, the bun has grown a lot, and the memory is much worse......" Qing Dai kept a smile on her face, and scolded in her heart, damn Jiu Niangniang! Damn the poisonous tongue man!

Damn paralyzed face!

Hua Shaoyan turned over and got on the big black horse standing at the door, hugged his fist at Wang Yang, and whipped the horse away.

The big black horse slammed the ground twice, kicked up a cloud of dust, and then ran out of the alley with his tail and his buttocks.

"Ahem" Qing Dai raised her hand and fanned it, watching the person and the horse turn out of the alley and disappear, and muttered angrily: "How can this horse and the master be virtuous?!" ”

"Major General Hua is notoriously difficult to speak, but he still remembers your words back then, which shows that he is a nostalgic person." Wang Yang didn't ask about the events of the year, but asked Qingdai with a smile: "Why are you free today?" ”

"Dad asked me to send a congratulatory gift to my little cousin on his behalf. By the way, stop by to see my cousin, sister-in-law and Fanghua. "Come inside and talk!"

Wang Yang and Qingdai entered the courtyard together. While walking, Qing Dai asked, "Why did Hua Shaoyan come here?" He and cousin, the last time you met in Shili Pavilion, was it the first time? Wang Yang said: "I met a few times in the Hanlin Academy, and I can be regarded as familiar with each other." This time, I came to help and Wang bring a post, inviting me to a literary meeting tomorrow, which is hosted by Caozhou Ji Yunji, I heard that Yu Zidu is also going, so I should go. ”

"Doesn't the eldest cousin have a chance to compete with Yuzi?" Wang Yang and Yu Zi are both called the "double sons" in Beijing, Yu Zidu is not in the capital all the year round, Wang Yang has been friends for a long time, but he has no chance to get acquainted, received an invitation, knowing that Yu Zidu also went, he agreed to go.

"I can't talk about the competition, but I can learn one or two ears." The two laughed and went to the main hall first, and Wang Yang sent someone to invite Zeng and Wang Tao to come over and talk.
