Xie Wan went to the Breeze Courtyard to sit for a while, played a game of charades with Xie Wei, and then went back to the room.

Unexpectedly, I waited for the good news of Wu's mother, there was a nephew in her mother's village, and there was only an old father in the family, and he was so poor that he couldn't open the pot, so he wanted to come out and find an errand. Xie Wan asked her about the child's age, and when she heard that she had just turned eleven this year, she said to Wu's mother, "Let him take a look." "For Wu's mother's face, he just can't be reused, so he has to be a buddy.

Luo Sheng came back after dinner and reported the business situation of the past two days, and sure enough, after the goods were replenished, the sales volume also increased significantly, although it still couldn't be compared with before, but it was stimulated to react positively.

Xie Wan couldn't help but ask about his employment, Luo Sheng said: "I found two, but the qualifications are mediocre, if you want to manage the shop, you have to hone it for at least three or five years." However, the character is good, they all know the roots, and they are all from poor families, and they don't have any fancy intestines. ”

Xie Wan nodded and said: "It's good to be able to have a good character, but now the important thing is to find someone to open up the shop first." You bring them over in two days, if there is no problem, let them go to Lizi Hutong first to learn oral kung fu, and then there are ten days of Qingyuan Yuanzhou Yumingfang that shop should be taken back, and it will take two months after you finish cleaning up and opening, and then transfer them over. Then now ask a second shopkeeper to look at the shop first. ”

Luo Sheng nodded: "Then I'll send the letter back tomorrow morning." ”

Xie Wan asked Yuxue to order him a bowl of hot mutton noodles and let him go back to his room.

Xie Lang was not in the mansion, and the Yifeng Courtyard was also quiet all night.

It wasn't until the next morning that Xie Wan learned that Ren Jun had actually stayed in the mansion.

After breakfast, the Wang family asked people to pass the word, saying that a table of wine and food was specially prepared in the upper room to entertain the third prince, and the young masters and ladies in the house were all to go to the upper room at noon to accompany them.

Xie Wan is very disgusted with such behavior. At best, this Ren family is more famous in Hejian Mansion, except for the in-laws of Jingshi, the reputation of Xie Mansion is not much lower than theirs, and the Wang family does not hesitate to put down his body to feast on a teenage child in order to convince them, which is really a loss of the identity of the Xie family's housewife.

She asked Yuxue: "How long does this Ren Jun have to stay before going back?" ”

Yuxue said: "I heard that Ren Gongzi will live for at least ten days and a half months as soon as he comes, but this time there will be no ten days, but I am afraid that he will not return home." After speaking, she smiled again: "The girl doesn't seem to like Ren Gongzi." ”

She fell on the kang table and sighed, "I'm just asking." ”

When the banquet was about to start, she came to the Yulan Hall in the main courtyard that is usually used to entertain guests, and the young masters and ladies in the mansion were all there, and they were surrounding the Wang family and Ren Junzhong who were talking about each other.

Ren Jun's eyes were sharp, and he got up and nodded at Xie Wan's jaw: "The third sister is here." ”

Everyone at the table stopped laughing, Xie Wan greeted Wang, and Xie Wei warmly beckoned her to sit beside her. Xie Yun poured her tea, Xie Qi pointed to her cup and said, "The third sister is late, she should be punished for drinking!" ”

Xie Tong and others coaxed. Xie Yun said: "My sister is too young to drink!" And she is still in the filial piety period, so she wants to drink tea. ”

Xie Qi shook Wang's arm: "Everyone is this rule, and if you are late, you will be fined." Why didn't you follow the third sister here? Besides, it's not an official banquet, it's just that a few of us eat behind closed doors, what kind of rudeness is it? ”

Xie Yun looked at Wang.

Wang smiled: "Brother Yun is right, my sister is still young and can't drink." Sister Wan'er, don't break their rules, you drink three cups of tea! ”

Xie Qileng refused. sneered: "If you can rely on people to urinate, then wouldn't people who are older than me have a lot of them?" You can also be a Rai, I can also be a Rai, the biggest one here is the eldest brother, so we don't have to punish those of us, just punish the eldest brother alone for everything! ”

Everyone was speechless. Even Xie Wei and Xie Yun stopped talking.

Xie Qi stood up, holding the wine jug and walked around the crowd towards Xie Wan. Ren Jun tugged at her sleeve: "She's your sister!" Xie Qi tilted his head and smiled: "It is precisely because she is my sister and not an outsider that she can't escape this rule!" It's just three glasses of wine, and it's not **, what are you afraid of?! ”

Although the cup is no more than the size of a copper coin, three glasses of wine can't hurt anyone, but with Xie Wan's eight-year-old body, whether he can withstand these three glasses of wine and soberly walk out of this banquet hall is an obvious problem.

What happens if she gets drunk? In front of the dignified Ren Jun, he showed his ugly face and lost face, which made him stay away from himself from then on?

In his previous life, Xie Wan, who traveled between various mansions with a good skin, understood this little bit of caution between women too well. However, just a few words to Ren Jun under the porch, which attracted her such revenge, this Xie Qi seems to be really not ordinary.

It's a pity that the Xie family has a lot of people who are ready to see her jokes, and Xie Lang, the only one who will come forward for her, is still out of the house.

Xie Qi had already arrived, picked up the wine glass in front of her and filled it. The aroma of the wine is refreshing, and it is a year of bamboo leaf green. In her previous life, she drank a lot of alcohol, and she often drank with her depressed brother. I just don't know if it's brought to this world.

"Sister, drink it quickly." Xie Qi smiled softly and cutely, and he didn't seem to be persecuted at all.

Xie Wan raised his wine glass and put it to his lips with his sleeves. Everyone at the table stared at her, and saw the wine glass paused in front of her lips, she suddenly covered the mouth of the glass and put it down, her eyes were shining, she looked at Xie Qi and said, "It's not interesting to drink like this, I didn't know you had rules in advance." In this way, second sister, you guess that there is still wine in this cup, if you guess correctly, I would rather drink three more glasses. ”

Everyone was stunned and looked at Xie Qi.

Xie Qi pursed his lips and glared at her, "What if you didn't guess right?" ”

Xie Wan smiled: "I didn't guess, you just hold your knees and turn ten somersaults on the ground." ”

Xie Wan didn't take Ren Jun in his eyes at all, even if he was drunk in front of him, it was no big deal. But Xie Qi is already nine years old, and she is also a half-grown girl, if she somersaults in public, what an embarrassing and humiliating behavior! The consequences of turning ten somersaults were far more serious than when she was drunk.

Xie Yun burst out laughing, high-fived, and said, "Okay!" Just bet on it! ”

Ren Jun looked at Xie Wan and then at Xie Qi, his brows furrowed slightly.

Wang said: "What kind of somersault does a girl turn over? Punish something else! ”

"Mrs. eccentric!" Xie Wan said coquettishly: "They are all the granddaughters of your old man, why does the second sister insist on punishing me for eating and drinking, and I can't do it if I gamble with her for a few somersaults?" It's just ten somersaults, and it's not to beat her and scold her, Mrs. just looks down on the second sister like this, thinking that she will definitely lose, or does she think that the second sister can't afford to lose? ”

In front of so many people, of course Wang will not admit partiality. smiled at the moment and said, "I won't mix with you, let you make trouble!" ”

Xie Qi is very strong by nature, and he wants to see Xie Wan make a fool of himself in front of Ren Jun, of course he will not admit defeat easily. After listening to Xie Wan's agitation, he said loudly: "Bet, bet!" Don't rely on me again! ”

Xie Wan smiled: "Naturally, I am willing to gamble and lose." ”

Xie Qi glared at her hatefully, approached her, stared at the wine glass held under her small palm, and then carefully examined the corners of her lips and complexion, and after a long time, blurted out: "There is wine in the cup!" I didn't even see you drinking! ”

"Really?" Xie Wan smiled and withdrew his hand.

The glass is empty, where is there any wine!

Xie Qi was dumbfounded, pointed to the cup and then pointed at Xie Wan, and said repeatedly: "How is it possible, how is it possible?" ”

"What's impossible?" Xie Wan leisurely took out a wet handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it to Yuxue behind him, "You didn't see me drinking, but it doesn't mean that there is wine in the cup, I am willing to lose the bet, second sister hurry up and turn somersaults, otherwise the dishes will be cold." ”

The amount of alcohol in her previous life was not brought back to this life, which does not mean that she does not understand those little tricks on the wine table. These tricks naturally can't be fooled in front of adults, but adults won't force an eight-year-old child to get off the stage like Xie Qi, right?

"You're cheating! You poured all the wine on the veil! ”

Xie Qi pointed at her loudly and shouted. Then he ran to Ren Jun's side and said loudly: "Brother Jun! Third sister, she is cheating at all! ”

Ren Jun was stunned for a while, and muttered: "But the third sister bets with you on whether there is wine in the cup, not where the gambling wine goes, and if you want to talk about cheating, you can't say it." ”

"Not bad, not bad! That's it! Second sister, turn somersault! ”

Xie Yun danced happily.

Xie Qi was so anxious that he was about to cry, but even the Wang family was the first to say something, and just looked at them from the side and smiled slightly like naughty children.

The boys didn't know what was going on here, and they relied on themselves as a manly husband, and they didn't want the people of the Ren family to look down on the people of the Xie family for not taking responsibility, so they coaxed them one after another. Xie Qi bit his lower lip and turned over ten somersaults, then covered his face and cried back to the room. Ruan was afraid that she would offend Ren Jun, so he changed her clothes and persuaded her to stop crying, and then sent her back.

From beginning to end, Xie Qi lost his appetite, not to mention persuading wine, and even the shrimp with thick tail fingers only ate three.

Xie Wan happily used tea instead of wine to touch the cup with Xie Wei, and tasted the cold salad and ginseng steamed deer breast in front of him.

Xi Shangren Jun looked at her with an inquiring gaze from time to time, Xie Wan didn't glance at his side at all, and returned to the room satisfied after eating.

And Xie Qi's bad mood seemed to have lasted for two or three days, until Xie Hong came back on the eve of the Laba Festival and brought her a beautiful bead flower that finally got better.

However, Xie Lang came back that night, and Xie Wan was no longer so bored that he wanted to move around, so no matter how much Xie Qi held his breath, it wouldn't affect her much.

After Xie Lang came back, Ren Jun also went to the Yifeng Courtyard with Xie Yun and Xie Tong to play twice, and both times Xie Wan didn't come out to say hello under the pretext that he was asleep, so even Xie Lang saw her abnormality.

"Ren Gongzi is gentle and polite, and his knowledge is not bad, but he is a character who can be befriended, you just don't like to deal with people anymore, you should also say hello. It's not good if it doesn't come out like this. ”

Xie Lang thought that his sister was just spoiled by her parents in the past, and her temperament was a little freewheeling, so she persuaded carefully.

Xie Wan was quite unimpressed by the words "can make friends" in his mouth. However, he was reluctant to interact with the Ren family because of the treachery of the Ren family in his previous life, but it was difficult to find any corresponding name to prevent his brother from interacting with Ren Jun, so he nodded silently, which was considered to be listening.
