The boat traveled in the river for another two days, and it was almost noon before they finally arrived in Kyoto.

The Xiao family sent someone to pick them up, and everyone got off the boat.

Xiao Zhiqiu looked around, Kyoto is also a good mountain and water, but at this time, it looks sluggish.

The three sisters of the Fan family have never been to Kyoto, and they are very lively when they look at the docks, and they feel novel and interesting everywhere.

Fan Gumin watched the workman move some goods off the ship, and while talking to the steward who came to greet him in the store in Kyoto, he finally came over and explained: "Zhiqiu, a few sisters, you go to Xiao Mansion to see your uncle first, and the eldest brother still needs to go back to the store with the person in charge to count the goods, so you can only go to Xiao Mansion tomorrow to meet your uncle!" ”

Xiao Zhiqiu saw that his face was proud, and he understood, and said with a smile: "My cousin has something to do, so let's go and get busy, I'll just talk to the people in the house." ”

And Fan Caiqing looked at those in charge waiting on the side, and knew that Fan Gumin's mind was not on business, so he was not at ease, and persuaded him: "Why don't you go to Xiao Mansion with us, big brother?" There are also a lot of inconveniences outside. "I am afraid that he will become more and more unrestrained because he is alone, and if he causes trouble, wouldn't it be worrying?

It's just that Fan Gumin is thinking about it, where is he willing to live in Xiao Mansion and be restrained, besides, only his uncle is a relative in Xiao Mansion, and the others are not his serious cousins, and he is afraid that he will be looked down upon when he enters the mansion, so he has long thought about living outside on the grounds of taking care of business, and said with a smile: "Look at what the eldest sister said, our Fan family has a business in Kyoto, and there are also two courtyards, the eldest brother is not as good as you, how inconvenient it is to live in the Xiao Mansion!" What's more, you have to take care of business, in the end, you have to check the problem, how to live in Xiao Mansion, and it is inconvenient for those in charge to reply! Then he waved his hand, said no more, and went back to the steward to speak.

Fan Caiqing saw it, sighed, and knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to let him go.

Fan Caiqing and Fan Caiqian were very happy, and when they saw Fan Caiqing's appearance, Fan Caiqing smiled and said: "Oh, sister, how old is the eldest brother, are you afraid that he won't take care of himself!" Besides, when I look at him like that, even if ten people try to persuade him, they can't persuade him! You, just save that hard work! ”

Fan Caiqing couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said: "The second sister always thinks like this, it's just that, everyone has their own blessings, the eldest brother is happy, let him go." ”

A few people talked and laughed, and the gifts given by the Fan Mansion to the Xiao family over there were also packed up, and Mrs. Wei informed Xiao Zhiqiu, and everyone got into the carriage and went to the Xiao family.

Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage arrived at the door of Xiao's house, and everyone got out of the car, only to see a seventeen or eighteen-year-old maidservant dressed in green waiting outside the door.

It was the big girl next to Wu's side.

Wei's mother saw that her mind was a little delicate, if she had changed her previous mentality, Wu treated Xiao Zhiqiu like this, she didn't feel inappropriate, but after getting along for a while, she also had some respect for Xiao Zhiqiu, she had no mother since she was a child, and Wu's aunt was promoted, and her temperament was also mean, and her attitude towards Xiao Zhiqiu was not cold to Xiao Zhiqiu's previous marriage, so naturally she couldn't say that she would teach Xiao Zhiqiu with her heart.

But Xiao Zhiqiu not only does not quarrel, but also runs around the two places every year, logically speaking, the upbringing is naturally not as good as these girls in the house, but on the contrary, several girls in the house are a little narrow-minded, but not as good as Xiao Zhiqiu's demeanor.

Today is the first time that the girls of the Fan Mansion have come to Kyoto, and it is also the first time to come to the Xiao family, it stands to reason that the Wu family is afraid of gossip, and they should do their best to entertain the Fan family.

Fan Caiqing saw the person dressed in the ring, and did not show any emotion, just looked at Xiao Zhiqiu, gently took her hand, and smiled to indicate that it was not tight.

Xiao Zhiqiu smiled with her, just looking at the flowers, and his expression was a little cold. She doesn't care about her attitude, it's just that Fan Caiqing and the others are all guests, and it's the first time she has returned to the Xiao family, even if she is not psychologically welcome, she shouldn't be so embarrassed, and this is too ungraceful.

And Fan Caiqing saw it, but the corners of his lips were hooked, his willow eyebrows went up, and he sneered in his heart, but he didn't expect to laugh out loud.

After everyone went up the steps, while the flowers were still in time to salute, Fan Caiqing suddenly turned around, and smiled at Wei Pozi and other subordinates of Xiao Mansion: "This must be the third girl of Xiao Mansion, her appearance is really outstanding, look at this style, she must be the head of the Xiao Mansion girl." It's just that we came from afar and came to my uncle's house for the first time, so why do you have to be so polite! ”

Xiao Zhiqiu and the others almost laughed when they heard this, even Fan Caiqing was kind, and he also felt that Fan Caiqing asked this well.

With the way of the other, return the other, since the Wu family can be so rude to them, how can they not deal with them?

Mother Wei listened to it, looked at Fan Caiqing, looked embarrassed and embarrassed, and didn't seem to expect that this second girl Fan would be so mercilessly ridiculed the Xiao family's rudeness, and looked at the flowers in embarrassment, not knowing how to explain.

And Fanhua was even more shocked when she heard it, she didn't expect that the few cousins of the Fan family had already embarrassed their wife before they entered the mansion for the first time.

What's more, the three girls have the strongest temperament, and what they are most nervous about is their appearance, but as soon as this cousin came, she deliberately mistook her for the third girl, and said that her appearance and demeanor must be the head of the girls in Xiaofu.

Thinking about it, he endured his anger, curtsied and said: "I have seen the girl and a few cousins, the slave maid is the maid ring next to the lady, and the appearance is not outstanding, and I dare not be so proud of the cousin, the third girl has been waiting for the arrival of a few girls in the lady's courtyard because of occasional discomfort, and asked a few girls to come with the slave and maid." "After all, I want to lead the way.

"Slow," Xiao Zhiqiu also took a step forward and said with a smile: "The Fan family is my foreign family, and it is also the in-law of the Xiao Mansion, when I first came to the Xiao Mansion, I thought that I wanted to see my grandmother first, and then come to see my father and mother. ”

The flower listened to the levy, and then smiled, and said: "Isn't the girl away from the house for a long time, forgetting that the old lady eats fasting and recites the Buddha, and no one is usually allowed to disturb, and only on the fifteenth day of the new year can she go to ask for peace?" ”

Xiao Zhiqiu also looked at her with a smile and said, "You are too incompetent to be a girl." How can we generalize about the importance of things? The Fan family is my foreign family, and the marriage between my mother and father was personally decided by my grandfather, and now the girl of the Fan family has just come to Xiao Mansion, how can I not go to see my grandmother? If the father had known, he would have been to blame. You can't even figure out the importance of this idea, I think your big girl is going back more and more! ”
