: : : :Mrs. smiled: "Pan'er has been ill for many years, she is plain and sentimental, and she never behaves as a child in front of me, but after you came, I see that she is much more cheerful, you usually make Pan'er smile, where do you have so many worries at a young age, don't enjoy it more at this time, and you will have to worry more about marrying people in the future!" At this, Madame sighed again.

 : : : :Qi Pan turned the year on thirteen, according to the imaginary age of fourteen, it stands to reason that this age should be set as early as possible, and then prepare a dowry for two or three years, and wait for the marriage after the end of the year. But Qi Pan's health is not good, and he didn't even know if he could live until he was alive before, although he is getting better now, but he can't bear the heavy responsibility of marrying her husband and children after marriage, and she is reluctant to marry early.

 : : : : The second prince was originally a cousin, and he had a good temperament, so he was a good match for Qi Pan, but although Concubine Xian didn't say anything, Qi Pan never looked the other way. The second prince has lofty ambitions, and he hopes that this body will not drag people down. Madame's brows furrowed at the thought of this.

 : : : : Xiao Yu saw that Mrs. suddenly looked sad on the side, and did not ask questions, but only picked up the interesting stories of sisters' jokes on weekdays to Mrs. to hear, and slowly coaxed Mrs. to smile.

 : : : :The two mothers and daughters were chatting happily, when they saw Qi Heng hurriedly running in: "Mother, mother, Mrs. Qin's carriage is coming!" ”

 : : : :Mrs. grabbed Qi Heng and reproached: "Why did you run away and sweat again, you should get cold again in a while!" She took out a handkerchief again and wiped the sweat on Qi Heng's forehead, then wiped it and asked, "What's the matter, you talk about it slowly!" ”

 : : : :Qi Heng stood still and asked his wife to wipe his sweat, and said: "I just saw a team of carriages coming from a distance on the road from the capital, Brother Di identified it and said that the carriage had the emblem of the Weiguo Mansion, I think it should be the old lady Qin arrived, so she rushed to tell her mother!" After that, he flattened his mouth and looked aggrieved.

 : : : :Mrs. carefully sweated Qi Heng, and said softly: "Mother knows that you want to do something for your mother, but you have to do things like doing things, these things have your own arrangement, as the master, you just ordered your subordinates to do it, and you ran in a panic in person, and shouted and screamed, what kind of system." Your heart is very happy, but this kind of thing will not be like this in the future, and you will lose your identity. ”

 : : : :Qi Heng nodded ignorantly, then raised his head and asked, "Then mother, what should we do next?" Madame gave him an encouraging smile approvingly and said, "Next, you and your second sister will follow me to the pavilion to greet Old Madam Qin and them!" ”。

 : : : : Then Madame asked a little maid to inform Qi Pan in the carriage, and the others followed Madame to the outside of the pavilion to greet her.

 : : : :The group walked out of the long pavilion and saw a tall and large-headed canopy carriage slowly coming, and Guo Di had already stepped forward to greet him.

 : : : : A housekeeper-like mother-in-law said a few words to Guo Di, and then saw Guo Di dismount and salute outside the carriage that was the head. Immediately, Guo Di came over and said to his wife: "Uncle, it's Mrs. Qin's entourage." At this time, Qi Pan also walked over wearing a cloak and a hood, and Xiaoyu turned sideways to give Qi Pan a place and let her stand beside Mrs.

 : : : :Old Madam Qin is wearing a black felt cloak, and the girl wearing a red gorilla felt cloak beside her is not Qin Xueyi. The two of them wore hoods and were helped off the carriage by Yahuan one after another, and Mrs. took two steps forward, just in front of Mrs. Qin.

 : : : :"Hehe, Wanying, I'm sorry, the old woman can't take the car too fast, so you have to wait for a long time!" , Old Madam Qin said to Madame as soon as they met.

 : : : :After Mrs. Qin greeted Mrs. Qin, she said with a smile: "What did Mrs. Qin say, we just arrived here, and we just rested." Come on, come on, it's windy outside, let's talk in the pavilion! ”。

 : : : :Everyone turned back to the long pavilion, Qi Pan, Xiaoyu, and Qi Heng stepped forward to greet Mrs. Qin, and they were very busy for a while before they finished saluting each other.

 : : : :Mrs. Qin smiled: "It's outside today and tomorrow, don't be so polite, just salute and salute as soon as you meet, that's too troublesome!" ”。

 : : : :Mrs. shook her head and smiled: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, their children still have to abide by the rules!" Old Madam Qin said meaningfully: "Wanying, you still adhere to the rules so much!" As a housewife, it's okay to follow the rules, but you also need to be flexible so that you don't get too tired."

 : : : :Mrs. blushed and bowed her head and said, "The old lady is right, Wanying has been taught!" Old Madam Qin sighed and said, "Don't be too talkative, it's not easy for you to live these years!" When Mrs. Qin heard Mrs. Qin's heartfelt words, her eyes turned red.

 : : : : Seeing the solemn atmosphere, Xiao Yu hurriedly said some gossip to divert the topic, and Qin Xueyi also echoed on the side.

 : : : : Everyone rested for a while, had some tea and pastries, and then packed up and went on the road again. As soon as Qin Xueyi saw Xiaoyu, she pulled Xiaoyu and gossiped endlessly, which showed that she didn't have a sister who could be said in the Weiguo Mansion.

 : : : :"Xiaoyu, do you know anything about Mrs. Liu's family?"

 : : : :"Huh? What's the matter?"

 : : : :"I heard" Qin Xueyi quietly lowered her voice and whispered to Xiaoyu. "The last time I went back to recognize the woman's ceremony, Mrs. Liu called her son to reprimand her, Liu Yayue didn't go out these times, I heard that her aunt was grounded, and she herself was not allowed to go out with Liu Yajuan. The few times I met Liu Yajuan, she was very happy with a smile on her face. ”

 : : : :Xiaoyu smiled slightly when she heard it, it seems that Liu Yajuan understood the meaning of her words, went back to tell Mrs. Liu, and really cleaned up the restless aunt.

 : : : : :All the way to the carriage, Qin Xueyi reluctantly parted with Xiaoyu.

 : : : :After meeting with Mrs. Qin, the convoy drove for more than an hour before stopping. Qi Pan woke up Xiaoyu from afar and motioned her to look out the window.

 : : : :The small fish looked out of the window, and a majestic mountain peak rose up in front of the road, and the cliff on one side of the peak was a whole large Buddha sitting statue, which looked particularly majestic from afar.

 : : : : It's really similar to the Leshan Giant Buddha! Xiaoyu quietly sighed in his heart. It's just that the Leshan Giant Buddha is located on the riverside, and this Giant Buddha has no river.

 : : : :The Big Buddha Temple sits on top of a hill with a steep stone staircase that winds its way up from the base of the mountain. After everyone got off the carriage at the foot of the mountain, they needed to climb the steps.

 : : : : A sedan chair has been prepared at the foot of the mountain, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qin stepped forward in a sedan chair, and originally prepared a sedan chair for all the ladies, but Qin Xueyi was enthusiastic and pulled the small fish to climb up, only Qi Pan was weak and sat in a sedan chair, and everyone else walked up the mountain.

 : : : :Qin Xueyi pulled the little fish to talk about gossip while going up the stone steps. At first, the two of them felt relaxed, but after climbing for two quarters of an hour, Qin Xueyi began to panth, Xiaoyu took advantage of the blessing of the gold bricks, and after climbing for so long, he was still out of breath and his face was not red. Qi Heng pulled Guo Di to follow behind, and the gold brick had already run away from the beginning.

 : : : : "I said, Xiaoyu, you can really do it, I'm all panting like this, you still have nothing to do." Qin Xueyi said breathlessly.

 : : : : "Sister Qin, let's stop and rest for a while!" The little fish thoughtfully suggested. When Qin Xueyi heard this, she immediately stopped, and the maid on the side handed over the tea.

 : : : :Qin Xueyi looked around and saw that Guo Di didn't notice her, so she drank it regardless of her image. Xiao Yu saw that she was sweating profusely and her cheeks were red, so she took out a handkerchief and gently rubbed her sweat.

 : : : :Qin Xueyi drank enough water, and said vaguely: "Xiaoyu, why aren't you tired at all, I usually ride horses and these things, I'm too tired to do it, but you don't have anything to do!" ”

 : : : :Xiao Yu smiled slightly and said, "Sister Qin, you know that I was born poor and have been doing farm work since I was a child, so this idea is nothing at all!" ”

 : : : :Qin Xueyi didn't doubt it, and held Xiaoyu's hand quite apologetically and said, "Oh, Xiaoyu, look at me, I didn't mean that......"

 : : : :Xiao Yu shook his head with a smile and said calmly: "Sister Qin is polite, I know you are unintentional, and besides, I am from a poor background, this is a fact, there is no need to shy away from it!" “

 : : : :Qin Xueyi looked at her approvingly and said, "I just like your frank temperament, unlike those squirming ladies!" ”

 : : : :Xiao Yu grimaced at Qin Xueyi and said, "Sister Qin doesn't think I'm vulgar and cheesy!" ”

 : : : :Qin Xueyi simply took a bite of Xiaoyu and said, "You little devil, you have finished everything alone!" ”。 Xiao Yu grinned and pulled Qin Xueyi to walk forward quickly.

 : : : : After climbing for half an hour, when he finally arrived at the mountain gate, Qi Heng was already so tired that he fell asleep, carried by a Hou Mansion guard. Although Guo Di didn't say anything, his expression was not as calm as before, which showed that he was still tired.

 : : : : Mrs. Qin, they have been here for a while, so they went to rest first, leaving Zhou's mother here to pick them up.

 : : : : Knowing that the ladies of the Hou Mansion and the Guardian Mansion are coming, the Big Buddha Temple has long been closed and does not accept other pilgrims. The abbot prepared two adjacent courtyards for them in the backyard, and because there were many people in the Hou Mansion, Mrs. Qin chose a slightly smaller courtyard to live in.

 : : : : The courtyard where the Hou Mansion stays is a row of five wings, Mrs. Qi Heng lives in the east chamber, Qi Pan, Xiaoyu and Jin Brick live in the west chamber, and the rest of the mother-in-law lives in the other three. Guo Di lives in a separate courtyard, which is not too far from everyone.

 : : : : Entering the courtyard, the servants and guards unloaded the trucks, laid the luggage, Xiaoyu and Qi Pan sat in the room and looked at the small courtyard through the window.

 : : : : Although the yard is not big, but the green brick paving, very clean. On one side of the courtyard is a clump of bamboo, the air is fresh, the mountain breeze blows, and the bamboo leaves make a rustling sound. On the other side of the yard, there are two plum trees, with buds waiting to be released.

 : : : :"Second sister, the weather is warm this year, there is no snow yet, it has snowed here in previous years, the scenery is beautiful!" , Qi Pan saw that Xiaoyu had been looking at the scenery in the yard and said.

 : : : :"Oh? So how do you come up when it's snowing? Xiaoyu asked curiously.
