Zhi Shi was stunned and sat down weakly.

Even Brother Cheng can see the meaning of this string of Yingluo, Ashu grew up in the Zhiguo Mansion since he was a child, how could he not see it? What's more, he also stopped it by speaking out?

Since she insisted on taking the string of Yingluo, she was afraid that she would already know about this family affair, and she was even more reluctant in her heart, so Cheng Ge'er would say that she would be happy.

Zhi Shi sat on the rose chair weakly, looking at Ye Qingshu with a solemn and calm face blankly, she didn't want her to be prosperous and rich, but at least she had to marry a husband who was quite talented and healthy.

But now, she wants to marry Zhi Qihua, and Shu's is even more thunderous, and she doesn't give them time to deal with it at all......

Since that day, Ye Qingshu no longer wears the gold collar, Shu Shi picked up Yingluo, solemnly brought it for her with his own hands, and took care of her bright red cluster hydrangea neon dress, tears fell from the ground, and choked up and called out good boy.

Ye Qingshu's eyes were also slightly wet, and he bent his knees towards Shu's again, and smiled at Zhiqihua, "Cousin, it's your turn, let's say it first, if I don't like it, my cousin has to prepare a new one!" ”

Shi Yan opened the box he was holding, but it was a gold collar that was exactly the same as before.

Zhi Qihua said with a smile, "The Yingluo given by my mother contrasts with Ashu's clothes today, and Ashu is still wearing the collar given by his cousin today."

Ye Qingshu hesitated, and Shu Shi smiled, "It's still Brother Hua'er's thoughtfulness, let's change it quickly."

Ye Qingshu changed it at this time, and then Ye Shouyi and the Zhi family gave gifts one by one.

When it was Ye Qingcheng's turn, Ye Qingcheng pretended to be distressed and frowned, "My grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, uncle and aunt all prepared such a heavy gift, and then looked at me, didn't you look at it and why couldn't you look at it?" That's it, I'll just ask for a trick and sell it first."

Everyone laughed, snorted disdainfully, and stuffed a horse whip into Ye Qingshu's hand, seeing Ye Qingshu looking up and down, he glared at her unhappily.

"Don't look at it, I bought it for a tael of silver! You don't like it, and I don't have the money to buy you anything else! ”

Ye Qingshu laughed out loud, and the old lady Zhi was even more happy to take Zhi Qiyi into her arms, and shouted again and again, "My little girl."

"Little Girl" her pretty face turned red, and shouted angrily, "Have you received the gift?" Put it away and eat quickly! When is this all gone! ”

Ye Qingling's gift was a hand-embroidered "Diamond Sutra", which took a lot of thought, Ye Qingshu held her hand distressedly and told her not to spend so much effort to give her such a gift in the future.

Because of the personal arrival of King An, Zhi Lao Guogong and Zhi Chun stayed at home, and the family opened two tables and had breakfast.

After a while, Ruan and Ye Shouzhi came with the girls from Ye Mansion and Sister Yan Huaiwan, and Ye Qingwu was escorted.

Immediately after that, there were guests one after another, at this time it was early summer, the weather was warm, and Shu's arranged the place to receive female guests in the back garden of the Lotus Pavilion.

Ye Qingshu celebrated his birthday, and invited all the young ladies who had not left the cabinet.

Only King An arrives, it will never come alone, most of them will be accompanied by everyone's sons, Ye Qingshu estimated that Xuan Ming would most likely come over by escorting the name of the county lord of Yanyang.

But the number of people is never too much, so Shu's directly arranged the male guests in Qinlan Garden, which is trouble-free and close, and everyone performs their duties, but it does not seem to be busy.

Since the beginning of the Ye Mansion, Ye Shouyi first entered the main household department of the cabinet, and then Ye Qingcheng High School, the happy events have continued, and the wedding banquets have been endless, and the girls of the Ye Mansion have also become familiar with the wives and daughters of high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Beijing.

At this time, although he was celebrating Ye Qingshu's birthday in the Zhiguo Mansion, they all put on a master's posture to help Ye Qingshu entertain guests, and the girls in the boudoir were in groups, laughing and playing, very lively.

At the end of the hour, the county lord of Yanyang and Feng Ruoshi came together, and the girls came forward to salute one after another.

The county lord of Yanyang exempted everyone from saluting, although he was still a little depressed, but he also forced a smile, and congratulated Ye Qingshu on his birthday with Feng Ruoshi, and sent a congratulatory gift.

Ye Qingshu took it with a smile, said a few polite words, and asked, "Why didn't Brother Qian come with you?" ”

"My cousin will also come, and Brother Qian will be with my cousin, so I should be there soon."

The county lord of Yanyang looked around at the visitors, obviously very surprised, "Ugly, why did you invite so many people here?" ”

It's just a small birthday, and Ye Qingshu is not a flamboyant and frivolous person, how could he invite so many people?

After saying that, he reacted in hindsight and said, "By the way, on your birthday, why will your cousin come?" ”

Ye Qingshu raised his forehead, what he said, he didn't know the truth, and he didn't know how to guess himself and Hua Shao!

Then he briefly said that King An was coming, and the county lord of Yanyang suddenly said, "No wonder so many people are here!" ”

As she spoke, she found Xia Shoufu's young daughter Xia Xiqing in the crowd, stood on tiptoe and waved at her, and said to Ye Qingshu, "You don't have to greet me, I'll go talk to Aunt Xia."

Xia Shoufu only got Xia Xiqing when she was fifty years old, so although Xia Xiqing is only fifteen years old, her seniority is very high, and girls of similar age have to call her aunt in a row, and some even call her aunt.

Ye Qingshu really didn't have time to entertain her today, so he nodded with a smile, "If you lack anything, come to me."

The county lord of Yanyang snorted hastily and went with Feng Ruoshi.

Feng Ruoshi still doesn't use fat powder today, and she is heroic and heroic in her actions, everyone looks sideways, she seems to be used to it, and she ignores it.

Not long after, a maid came to report that King An and his entourage had arrived, and it was estimated that they would come over soon, and Ye Qingshu was busy preparing to greet him.

Most of the people who came today obeyed the orders of their parents at home, and came to King An, who is said to have healed his leg, Ye Qingshu's actions naturally couldn't hide from their eyes.

Then there was a question that couldn't bear it, "Sister Ye, who is coming here?" ”

Ye Qingshu said with a smile, "It's Prince An, my aunt said that Lord An came to see my cousin, and he was on my birthday, and he was interested, so he said that he wanted to come to congratulate him, and Lord An came in plain clothes today, so we don't have to be too restrained."

Having said that, almost all of the girls became nervous, and they went to the clean room to tidy up and describe, and those who did not want to show it also subconsciously straightened their skirts and helped them to shake.

About a quarter of an hour later, King An came slowly accompanied by Zhi Qihua and others.

Ye Qingshu looked up, Hua Shao's extreme appearance would still make people see him at a glance among many people, but today he didn't raise his eyebrows and smile as usual, and act like an unruly gentleman.

The eyebrows are furrowed, the jade-like face is tense, and the cold expression is not close to the living, but it is much more pleasing to the eye than usual.

I just don't know what made him unhappy, and he didn't even bother to pretend.

Ye Qingshu's gaze slid over him, looked at King An beside him, and saw that he walked steadily, his face was radiant, and his pupils were shrinking.

His eyes fell on Xuan Ming on his right hand again, followed by Hua Qian, but there was a seven or eight-year-old little monk beside Hua Qian, with a round head, round eyes, and a bright red cinnabar in the center of his eyebrows, Yuxue was cute.

In the end, he and Ye Qingcheng looked at each other silently, lowered their heads and went to greet everyone.
