Chapter 307: Brother Pit
Lin Qingwan thought for a while and asked with a smile, "But it's called Zheng Yi?" ”
"I forgot to ask him what his name was, but judging by Jue Ge'er's voice, you know him very well. [with _ dream]ā"
Lin Qingwan smiled, lowered her head and sipped tea, it was not her who was cooked, it was Sister Wan.
At that time, when she followed Lin Jiang in the state of her soul, Lin Jiang said that among outsiders, except for Mrs. Yang, who was familiar with Sister Wan, it was that Zheng Yi.
Because he is Xie Yiming's bamboo horse, the two grew up together, and similarly, Sister Wan grew up with them.
Because of physical reasons, Sister Wan rarely goes out to make friends, so she doesn't have girlfriends, so she likes to play with Xie Yiming.
And Xie Yiming will always take Zheng Yi three or four times out of ten, so her relationship with Zheng Yi is not bad.
Lin Qingwan put down the teacup, her fingertips couldn't help but tapped her knees, her changes seemed to the people around her to be gradual, but Zheng Yike didn't see this process in person, I don't know if he would notice it.
The most important thing is that Sister Wan rarely said anything about Zheng Yi at the beginning, and she only saw each other once when Xie Yiming was buried.
She has very little impression of Zheng Yi.
Lin Qingwan sighed slightly, and returned home with a little worry, as soon as she returned to the other courtyard, Steward Lin sent two greeting letters, "Grandma, this is screened out by the old slave, you can take a look." ”
Lin Qingwan opened it and saw that one was from the Wang family, and the other was from the Zheng family, both of which had the family emblems of two families.
Lin Qingwan put down Zheng's first, opened Wang's, and when she saw Wang Ji at the end, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said, "Why is he?" ”
Steward Lin also glanced at it and said, "This prince has already been in Suzhou, and he has been stationed in the Reading Building in the past few months. ”
Lin Qingwan nodded, put down the post and said, "He is Mr. Wang's nephew, send someone to inform him, and invite him to meet tomorrow." ”
After that, she picked up the Zheng family's prayer post, she paused, but still opened it.
I thought it was Zheng Yi's post, but who knew that she saw a completely unfamiliar name at the checkout place, she frowned, "Zheng Qi? ”
It's a little familiar, but she blinked, and she didn't have the impression of this person at all.
Steward Lin frowned and thought about it, and suddenly said after half a ring: "Grandma forgot, this person came to visit Mrs. Yang the year before last, and he is also the son of the Zheng family." ”
Lin Qingwan blinked, and was mentioned by Steward Lin like this, so she had some impressions, and she said silently: "I thought it was Zheng Yi?" ”
Steward Lin smiled, "Is the county lord thinking about Zheng Gongzi?" ”
"No," Lin Qingwan casually threw the prayer note on the table and said, "Today, Mrs. Lu said that a descendant surnamed Zheng was going to come to see me, so she thought it was Zheng Yi." ”
"Do you want to see him, then?" Steward Lin glanced at the prayer post on the table.
Lin Qingwan thought for a while and said, "See, after all, it's the Zheng family, maybe there's something important." Let's arrange it in the afternoon, when I see Wang Ji. ”
The Zheng family and the Wang family, of course, she is closer to the Wang family, not to mention her relationship with Lin Jiang and Wang Jin, Wang Ji's performance in Suzhou in the past few months alone is worthy of her respect.
Although that kid is young, he is more experienced than Lin You, listening to Lin Wen, he eats very well in the reading building, and the people who read in the reading building have more or less some intersection with him.
And the relationship between Lin Jiang and Wang Jin is never a secret, as Wang Jin's own nephew, he never thought of using the Lin family's power to do something in Suzhou.
So in Lin Qingwan's opinion, Wang Ji is much more important than Zheng Qi.
Zheng Qi received the reply, and the next day spent half a day grooming and dressing, learning the wide sleeves and wide clothes of the Jin people, going out early in a flowing body, and arriving at Lin's house before lunch.
The Lin family only said that it was afternoon, and he didn't say anything wrong when he went at this time.
But when I arrived, I realized that Lin Qingwan still had guests at this time.
Zheng Qi couldn't help but face stiffened, wasn't he the only guest today?
Steward Lin didn't expect that there would be such a mistake, shouldn't the afternoon be after noon, the reason why there is no time limit is just to let the guests be casual, if there is something important, then come after noon, if there is no important time, you can come to the door at the time.
These rules are conventional, and they are not doing business or passing gas in advance, so there is really no need to set a time.
But who knew that Zheng Qi, who was born in a family, did not abide by this rule.
But Steward Lin can't say that people are wrong, so he can only temporarily invite people to the side hall, let people serve hot tea and snacks, and ask the other party to wait with a smile.
Zheng Qi saw the carriage at the door before entering the door, and naturally knew that there were guests in the Lin family now, so he asked quietly, "Aunt Lin has a guest?" ”
Steward Lin smiled apologetically: "Yes, a distinguished guest is coming, so please wait a little longer." ”
Zheng Qi nodded absently and asked with a smile, "I don't know who it is, if you know each other, I can still go and meet you." ”
Steward Lin snorted and said, "Gongzi Zheng is polite, Gongzi Wang is your equal." ”
Wang Ji's visit is not a secret, so there is no need to hide it.
Zheng Qi frowned slightly, "Is it the Wang family's Wang Ji's son?" ”
"It's the prince."
The smile on Zheng Qi's face was faint, and he looked at the direction of the flower hall, he didn't expect Lin Qingwan to value Wang Ji so much, seeing that he was scheduled in the afternoon, but seeing Wang Ji was in the morning.
At this time, Wang Ji and the others were not playing chess in the flower hall, but in the small garden.
The two have played two sets, one win and one loss, and now this set is a bit stalemate.
This morning, the two played chess, and Wang Ji didn't say anything about her.
Seeing that he was embarrassed, Lin Qingwan didn't ask, he said that he would play chess if he played chess.
Because of her uncertainty, Wang Ji lost without suspense in the first game, and he was serious in the second game, but Lin Qingwan was a little loose in the first game, so she lost.
The two have problems with each other's mentality, but this third game is more serious, so there is no winner for an hour.
Seeing that he was going to draw, Wang Ji dropped the chess pieces and sighed: "My chess skills are good, but I didn't expect the county lord's to be better, and sure enough, as Brother Zheng said, the county lord's chess skills are good." ”
Lin Qingwan was stunned, she had heard "Zheng" several times in two days, and she couldn't help asking, "Could it be that your brother Zheng is also old to me?" So you're familiar with my chess skills? ”
She dared to swear that there was no Zheng Yi in the character relationship chart given to her by Sister Wan and Lin Jiang, why did he look so familiar with her?
Wang Ji was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "The county lord forgot, Brother Zheng is a classmate of Xie Ergongzi, didn't the three of you grow up together?" ”
Lin Qingwan raised her eyebrows, "Are you talking about Zheng Yi?" ”
"It's him, who does the county lord think?" Wang Ji said this, and glared slightly: "Has the county lord seen Zheng Qi?" ”
Lin Qingwan smiled, "I haven't seen you yet, I'm going to see you in the afternoon, what's the matter?" ”
Wang Ji was a little entangled, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Actually, this time I came to visit the county lord not because Ji had something to do, but because my friends had something to do, so I had to come." ”
Lin Qingwan thought thoughtfully, "Is it you Zheng Yituo?" ”
Wang Ji frowned and nodded.
Lin Qingwan looked amused, "What makes you so embarrassed?" ”
Wang Ji sighed, looked at Lin Qingwan cautiously and asked, "Is the county lord familiar with Zheng Qi?" ”
"Not familiar." If it weren't for Steward Lin's help in recalling, she wouldn't have remembered this person, and even now she wouldn't have seen each other.
Wang Ji breathed a sigh of relief, and after carefully glancing at Lin Qingwan again, he asked, "Then, has the county lord ever thought about remarrying?" ”
Lin Qingwan frowned and looked at him inquiringly, "No, why are you asking about this?" ”
Wang Ji clapped his hands fiercely and said excitedly: "I'll just say, the county lord doesn't look like a person who will remarry at all." ”
Seeing Lin Qingwan looking at him lightly, he coughed lightly, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face and said: "Forgive me, county lord, it was actually Brother Zheng who asked me to remind you that his cousin Zheng Qi seems to be interested in you, so as not to misunderstand you, let me remind you." ”
Lin Qingwan blinked and asked, "Interested in me?" What's the matter, Zheng still wants to marry me? ”
The tone was flamboyant, and he looked quite disdainful, so Wang Ji smiled and said: "That's it, how many people in this world are worthy of being the county lord?" ”
In Wang Ji's opinion, Lin Qingwan, the county lord, is even more powerful than Zhong Ruying, and there are really few people in the world who are worthy of her.
As long as she thought that she would marry in the future and teach her husband and children at home, Wang Ji's heart hurt, as if the pearl was covered with light.
The words that were blocked in his heart were finally spoken, and the rest of the words were easy to say, Wang Ji stopped playing chess, and poured tea for Lin Qingwan very diligently: "Don't be angry, the county lord, in fact, this is also the plan of the Zheng family, and Brother Zheng actually disagrees with it in his heart." ”
Zheng Yi doesn't agree with it, he is extremely opposed.
He has no right to oppose his cousin's remarriage, nor is he qualified to oppose Lin Qingwan's remarriage, but he can't accept these two being together.
One is his cousin, and the other is the surviving person of his last friend, if Lin Qingwan also agrees with Zheng Qi, he is not qualified to object.
But Lin Qingwan obviously has no intention, so he is very opposed to the family mentioning this family matter, but unfortunately, he is weak in the Zheng family, and the Zheng family, including his mother, is happy to see it, so it is useless for him to oppose this matter.
So after his cousin set off for Suzhou, he has been restless, he wanted to write to Lin Qingwan, but since Xie Yiming's death, they have no longer been in touch, and he rashly wrote to him for fear of being rude.
The most important thing is that he can't open his mouth to Lin Qingwan about this matter.
Fortunately, Wang Ji is in Suzhou.
He is familiar with Wang Ji, the two have been classmates for five years, and he went out to study in the spring of last year, and the two have always been in contact.
And Wang Ji was tight-mouthed, telling him that he didn't have to worry about him leaking his mouth, the most important thing was that he didn't have to tell Lin Qingwan in person about this matter, and the pressure in his heart was not so great, so Zheng Yi didn't hesitate to push the pot to Wang Ji, and by the way, he pit his cousin.
Hmph, do you think he really can't help it if he doesn't let him go to Suzhou?
As long as Sister Wan has no intention, he doesn't believe that they have any way, anyway, he can't accept his former brother's wife as a cousin-in-law.
