Chapter 23: Relatives Together, Brothers and Sisters
Qingchangmei looked at her gently, her eyes as bright as stars seemed to be clear and bright, but when she looked at the past, it seemed to enter a secluded pool, which made people unable to see through her thoughts; Although her every move is still full of immaturity, it is full of dignity and confidence, and the two different atmospheres of excellence and mystery are perfectly intertwined with her body, which makes people unable to take their eyes off; However, when you want to take a closer look, there is no trace of these two breaths, leaving only the simplicity and beauty that a seven-year-old girl should have.
Originally, with her straightforward nature, she would never have a good impression of such a deep girl, but she fell in love with it as soon as she met, and she loved it in her heart, and she didn't hide it.
"Rui'er, Jie'er, come and meet your cousins!"
She was overjoyed, and only thought that if she let her rudeness and wayward children spend more time with her, she might change their temperament.
"This is your fourth uncle's cousin Lian'er, Yan'er's cousin, and Nuan'er's cousin!"
"Lian'er, Yan'er, and Nuan'er have seen their cousins and cousins!"
The three sisters saluted Qiu Zijie and Qiu Rui at the same time, their manners were generous, their manners were virtuous, and they couldn't find faults, with a kind smile on their faces, without the slightest flattery, making them frown slightly and be silent.
"Why don't you speak?" Qing Changmei was puzzled.
"Mother, let's play with Cousin Long'er!" Qiu Zijie said a word, pulled Qiu Rui and turned around and left.
"Zijie—"
"Forget it, wouldn't it be nice for the child and Long'er to play together? Why bother them! ”
The old lady said in due course, she was dissatisfied with the friendship between her eldest daughter and Jiang Yingyue, and then saw that she liked the three children quite a lot, and this dissatisfaction was expressed.
"Mother-"
"Eldest sister, Lian'er and they usually don't have much fun, if they really let Zijie and Rui'er play with them, I'm afraid it will be boring, and it's better to let the children deal with things between them." Jiang Yingyue saw that she still wanted to argue, so she hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her.
For Qingchangmei's pair of children, although she doesn't hate it, she really doesn't like it, especially the disgust in the eyes of Qiu Zijie and Qiu Rui when they look at their daughters, she completely sees it in her eyes, in her opinion, her daughter is very good, and she doesn't need to please anyone or look at anyone's face.
"That's right, I'm too worried!"
The old lady's face darkened again, and she always felt that Jiang Yingyue had a hint in every sentence, which really made her not like it.
"The old body is tired, you all stand down! Changmei took her children to live in the plum garden, and the three daughters-in-law have all been arranged? ”
"Yes! It's all been cleaned! ”
"Hmmm! Stand down! ”
Qing Changmei looked at her disliked face, and wanted to say something, but in the end she took her children's hands and turned away, she never understood, things have passed for so long, and the fourth brother is also biological, why bother always holding on? Besides, she really doesn't like the three brothers and sisters, looking dignified and polite, but hypocritical tight, I really don't understand how she got her mother's blue eyes?
"Eldest sister is tired all the way, go and rest! I heard that the sister-in-law will arrive at the time! ”
Jiang Yingyue walked out of the Summer Palace, wanting to talk to her, but saw that Li Wanru was already waiting aside, Qinglong, Qing Xuanlei chatted happily with Qiu Zijie and Qiu Rui, so she couldn't say anything.
"That's fine, I'm a little tired!"
She frowned, looking at her children, she always felt that they couldn't learn anything with the Qinglong sisters and brothers, especially Qinglong, who always gave people a sense of calculation with a crooked smile.
Qingyan saw her expression in her eyes, and guessed a little about her thoughts, if it was in the past, maybe she would have helped, but she really didn't agree with the behavior of her children, and the country is easy to change, and her nature is difficult to change, even if she tries to train hard, it will not have any effect.
However, she felt pity for this aunt, and it was heart-wrenching for such a good and hearty woman to die so tragically.
"Your aunt is also pitiful, married to a rough man, if she has justice in her heart, it is fine, but she is just a hypocrite, my mother looks at your cousin and cousin's heart seems to follow your uncle, stay away from them in the future!"
As soon as she entered the main room of Changyue Garden, Jiang Yingyue waved away her subordinates and solemnly instructed them.
"Yes!"
"Go ahead! My mother is also a little tired, and your aunt will come back in another hour, although she is from a family and is a little arrogant, but fortunately, she has a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and your cousin Qing Xuanlang is very knowledgeable, even if he is taller, he has no defense, after all, people have no malice. ”
"Yes!"
The three of them left one after another, Qing Nuan was a little tired, went back to Yuqin Tower to rest, Qinglian followed behind Qing Yan and came directly to Bishui Pavilion.
"Yan'er, listening to my mother's meaning, my aunt doesn't seem to be happy."
"Does my sister have any ideas?"
"No, it's just that I suddenly feel that it's really not easy for a woman, once she gets married, she is no longer herself, you look at my aunt, she has a smile on her eyebrows, but as long as she touches her cousin and cousin, she is full of sadness, and you can imagine that her life is not satisfactory."
Qinglian's small body sat down and said with emotion, a pair of beautiful water-cut eyes full of sorrow for the future.
"How old is my sister? Just thinking about what will happen after you get married? ”
Her heart moved, thinking of her sister's experience in her previous life, she felt a breath in her chest, and she wanted to vent but couldn't find an outlet, so she had to persuade with a smile.
"Dead girl, how dare you make fun of me?"
Her face was crimson, and when she turned around, she chased her and laughed, and for a while, the silver-like laughter wandered in the blue water pavilion, but it also dispelled some of the stuffiness in Qingyan's chest, but she secretly decided that she was bound to intervene in her sister's marriage in this world, and she would not let Wang Taijiu succeed again.
The sunset came as scheduled, Qingyan dressed neatly and walked out of the blue water pavilion, and his father, mother, and sisters walked to the Summer Palace, at this time there was still a quarter of an hour before the unitary time, thinking of the eldest aunt and cousin Qing Xuanlang, she was excited in her heart, if there was anything difficult in her family in her previous life, the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family would always help each other secretly, especially in the end, her cousin Qingyue's desperate protection, she will never forget.
Before arriving at the Summer Palace, Qingyan felt a cheerful atmosphere, which was not there when Qing Changmei returned home, the most important son in the old lady's heart was the eldest son Qing Changrong, and then the third son Qing Changfu, and the most precious was the eldest grandson Qing Xuanlang.
As soon as he entered the Summer Palace, he saw Qing Xuanlang's face like jade, his long hair tied up, his sword eyebrows into his temples, his fox eyes were blazing, his thin lips were slightly raised, he was dressed in a snow-white green bamboo robe, the cuffs were printed with green silk bamboo leaf patterns, the waist was tied with a gold silk strap, and his feet were wearing black boots.
Look at his side again, the eldest aunt Qinghuang's skin is snowy, peony bun, willow eyebrows and fox eyes, apricot mouth is slightly open, a blue purple English Luo skirt, blue Ruyi hexagram, graceful and luxurious, dignified atmosphere, it is really not a loss to be born in the capital.
"The son and his wife and daughter greet their mother!" Qing Changgui's face was solemn, and he took his wife and daughter to bow.
"Get up! Why don't you see Brother Cheng? ”
"Back to my mother, Brother Cheng was asleep at this time, so I didn't hug me!"
"Well, I've seen your sister-in-law, and Changmei, I don't know where you went today, and my eldest sister didn't see you coming over to take a look."
The old lady was reprimanded and dissatisfied, and Qing Changfu sat quietly in place, but the smile in his peach blossom eyes betrayed his heart.
Li Wanru lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly, but Qingyan felt that she seemed to be inexplicably sad; Behind her were Qinglong, Qing Xuanlei, Qiu Zijie, and Qiu Rui, sitting next to the desk, eating fresh fruits leisurely, not paying attention to the arrival of themselves and others, and even after the old lady's reprimand, they all had playful smiles.
"Changgui, can you buy tiger prawns today? I told you earlier that although there are aquatic products at this time, tiger shrimp are still extremely difficult to find. Qing Sanyuan glanced at his wife beside him, frowned, and said with a sigh and unhurriedly.
"Tiger prawns? That's my mother's favorite food, did the fourth brother really look for it? No wonder I haven't seen you since I entered the house! Qing Changmei hurriedly answered, her eyes were bright, and she said very hurriedly, and then looked at the old lady with a smile.
"Yes! Your eldest brother also said that someone should send some from the capital, but I thought that although Qingzhou is closer to the capital, it is not new when I get here. How many were found? This tiger prawn old lady loves to eat, your eldest sister loves to eat, even your sister-in-law is also a glutton! Qinghuang also hurriedly said.
"Sister-in-law and eldest sister can eat with confidence, Changgui searched for a day, and finally found a hundred catties, and they are all alive, and now they have been sent to the kitchen."
"That's good, I don't have to think about dinner tonight, Ming'er doesn't know if my mother can let me make some first? The daughter-in-law is really hungry! ”
"Yes! My daughter wants to eat it too! Mother, don't wait for the next child, make some for us to try first! ”
"You two greedy cats, you can't eat anything on weekdays, but you are worried about my wife's birthday gift, no matter what, it's rare for you to come back, three daughters-in-law, let the cook make two plates now, and eat them tonight."
The old lady was quite surprised by Qing Changgui's search for tiger prawns, in her mind, she had never been interested in this son, but she didn't expect him to be interested in herself, and her heart, which had been cold for many years, had warmth at this moment, and then by Qinghuang and Qing Changmei's singing and drinking, it made her smile.
It is rare in the Summer Palace that there is laughter and laughter when Qingchanggui is there.
Qing Yan stood silently aside, looking at every expression of everyone in the room, and then looked at Qing Xuanlang's body, the twelve-year-old was already quite talented, and he heard that he was also a well-known talent in Huaiyuan County.
However, when he looked at his father, there was admiration in his eyes, and he thought that he admired his father's talent.
Qing Xuanlang felt that there was a fiery gaze that looked at him for a long time, frowned slightly, looked back, and saw Qing Yan with a decent smile on his face, a pair of peach blossom eyes winked at him, and then lowered his head again.
He looked at her in amazement, he remembered that when he went to work with his father, wasn't this cousin very fat? She hadn't noticed it when she came in, but now it looked very different from before, and although she wasn't too thin, she looked much better, at least he could see her eyes.
Thinking of the younger sister at home talking about Qingyan's cousin with her mouth closed, every sentence is the meaning of missing her, I really don't know where this cousin is so good, she can make her sister at home respect her.
