Ye Zhiwei looked at Li Jia from behind the screen, from the shock and surprise at the beginning, to later, she couldn't stop sneering in her heart.

Ye Yaoqin saw Ye Zhiwei's complicated expression, thinking that she had a plan, listening to her mother's greeting conversation with her cousin, that person's voice was like a warm spring breeze, and she couldn't help but look out along the gap in the screen.

With just one glance, the handsome boy struck the softest part of her heart.

Li sat on a chair, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, with a tolerant and generous image of the main mother.

Li Jia bowed his hand: "I have heard my father mention my aunt many times, so I came to Beijing this time to visit by the way." ”

"Is your father well?" Li pretended to be concerned.

"Now that he is still in office, he wants Xiaosheng to follow his career, and this time he came to Beijing to make more friends."

Li nodded with satisfaction, she knew the situation in Li Jia's mansion very clearly, although her father was an official in the local area, but compared with the children of the official family in Beijing, it was too much worse, and if she wanted to make friends, she would naturally spend money, so he would bear the brunt of the problem first, because the safest way was to bring him to the circle of these high-ranking mansions in the capital through her.

While they were talking, Ye Yaoqin couldn't hold her breath on the screen, she didn't expect her cousin to look so elegant, although the clothes on his body were not as good as those nobles in the palace, but that appearance was by no means inferior to those official sons.

Ye Zhiwei slowly straightened up and sat back in her chair.

There is no need for her to look at it anymore, what kind of person Li Jia is, she knows better than anyone else, he has paid sincerely, but in the end, in terms of feelings and career, he did not hesitate to choose the latter.

Li and Li Jia exchanged greetings again, then served tea to the guest, and sent him to the Li Mansion before leaving.

Before Li left, he only glanced at the screen and went back to the Buddhist hall without saying anything.

Ye Yaoqin took a long breath at this time and muttered, "Third sister, have you seen it, my cousin, how does it look?" ”

Ye Zhiwei stood up and smoothed the wrinkles on her dress, "It's okay." ”

"What's the good thing, he's such a good person, you can't see it?" Seeing that the things she admired were completely submerged in the other party's eyes, Ye Yaoqin couldn't help but feel anxious.

Ye Zhiwei glanced at Ye Yaoqin, "What is my cousin anxious about, there is a way that everyone has different preferences, I think it is just enough to get into the eyes, if my cousin has nothing else, I will go back first." ”

When she reached the door, she deliberately covered her mouth and yawned.

Ye Yaoqin stomped her feet hatefully, and went to the Buddha Hall.

Li asked about Ye Zhiwei's performance behind the screen at that time, Ye Yaoqin was hesitant, and Li didn't pay much attention to it, she was about to plan the next move, so she didn't notice the flash of crimson on her daughter's face.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the birthday banquet of Zhenguo Gong.

The guests who came to the Zhenguo Mansion to celebrate their birthday shuttled back and forth, and the carriages parked at the gate of the mansion alone occupied almost the entire alley.

It stands to reason that the Duke of Zhenguo is currently at home, although his identity is sensitive, but he is not the main object of the court, but because the former saint has just given Miss Ye San a marriage, if Miss Ye San really marries the prince of Nanwang in the future, I am afraid that the balance of forces between the parties in the court will be broken again.

Therefore, the vast majority of the guests who came today came with a tentative mind.

Ye Zhiwei and Xiaolian had just entered the front hall, and they listened to the laughter and laughter on their faces, and the ladies chattered non-stop like birds.

Today's birthday banquet is the lady in charge of the second room, although it is not as easy as the eldest lady in the past, but today's guests are not here to eat and drink, so no one cares about this kind of thing.

The eldest lady really came out of the Buddhist hall, wearing a navy brocade cardigan top, a hundred-fold Luo skirt, and pretending to hold Buddhist beads in her hand.

Ye Zhiwei hid the disdain at the corner of her mouth, if the Li family is sincere to the Buddha, I am afraid that even the crocodile will recite Buddhist scriptures.

When she walked in the door, she saw Li smile and said, "Look at our third young lady is here." ”

"This is the future princess." I don't know who said it sourly.

Usually an unmarried woman will blush with shame when she hears this, but this is not lethal to Ye Zhiwei at all.

Want to make her blush? That has to be comparable to the black belly of the prince of the Southern Wang.

The second lady introduced the ladies to her, Ye Zhiwei lowered her eyes, saluted one by one, her movements were like flowing water, and her clothes were not messy.

There are always those who can't see the good of others, and can't help but ridicule her a few words by giving marriage, she just didn't hear it, her dark eyes looked directly at each other, and she made the other party embarrassed first.

She really didn't have anything to say to these long-tongued women, don't look at the Li family and the ladies in the second room laughing and holding them, but she didn't need to scold them.

Everyone talked again, and Li said: "It's still early to leave the table, don't let the ladies be detained, the garden behind is open, everyone go shopping." ”

The young ladies were all happy, and they went to the back garden in groups.

Xiaolian followed behind Ye Zhiwei, following in the same direction, and the two followed behind those people and slowly walked towards the back garden.

The garden that opens today is the summer lotus garden in the house, the scenery is dominated by the pavilion and the water pavilion, and the cloister and the rockery lake stone are set up more, everyone laughs and laughs, and walks to the depths of the courtyard along the nine-curved corridor.

Faintly, the sound of the guqin came from behind the rockery.

One of the young ladies said, "Listen to the sound of this piano...... and everyone stopped, stared with bated breath and listened quietly.

The sound of the piano was faint at first, but gradually it became like flowing water, clear from the ethereal, echoing in the garden, like a breeze blowing across the lake, and like a gentle rain falling on people's hearts.

"I wonder who's playing the piano?" Someone asked.

On the side, there was a maid serving from the Zhenguo Mansion, and said: "There are some male guests on the rockery, and the eldest lady has already instructed the slave maid, so it's good not to ask the slave maid to take you over there." ”

The sound of the piano gradually fell, and everyone listened with pride.

At that moment, someone stretched out his hand and said, "You see, that's the one who plays the harp." ”

Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, but saw a person sitting in the pavilion behind the rockery, dressed in plain clothes and light shirts, with a Guqin on his lap, and slowly chanted: "By asking the to Ziyan, I once learned to dance for the New Year." If you have to become a muddle, why die, and be willing to be a mandarin duck and not an immortal. ”

The man put down the guqin, slowly stood up, and looked at the pool of Qinghong outside the pavilion, as if he was a little sad.

If you have to become a muddle, why die, and be willing to be a mandarin duck and not an immortal.

Just this sentence deeply touched everyone present, which woman doesn't want to get a husband who can be with her white prime minister and accompany her for the rest of her life.

The man who sings such verses must be a merry man who values love and care.

"I wonder who he is?" Someone whispered.

But everyone said they hadn't seen each other, and they didn't know who he was.

The man had his back to everyone, and the long sleeves of his plain clothes were gently lifted by the breeze, showing a chic and graceful state.

Ye Zhiwei stood behind the people, her eyes slightly cold.

Even if he didn't turn around, she would still recognize his identity.

Li Jia, who is playing tricks here, wants to win the hearts of beauties, but I am afraid that this time, he will really be disappointed.
