Chapter 18: A Bright Eye
"Miss, the old lady told you to hurry up and go to Rong'an Hall!"
Ping'er looked at Qi Zijin running in the yard, and was a little puzzled by her behavior, just run, why do you have to tie so many sandbags to your feet?
Qi Zijin got up early today, made a few sandbags, and began to run around the yard.
As a result, just after a sweat, Ping'er came to call her.
Qi Zijin jogged for another half a lap, and only stopped when he reached Ping'er, panting for breath while asking, "What happened this early in the morning?"
Ping'er shook her head: "I don't know, Sister Shuqin came in person, and she went back after speaking, she looked a little anxious!"
Qi Zijin was even more puzzled, but he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly entered the room and freshened up at will, and then took the two of them to Rong'an Hall in a hurry.
Only then did I step into the courtyard, and I saw a bunch of maids standing in the courtyard, each of whom was holding a plate in her hand, and the plate was covered with a red cloth, and I don't know what it contained.
Qi Zijin frowned slightly, this battle should be a great guest, but according to this situation, the old lady should not call her here!
Why did you suddenly call yourself here again today? Could it be that the person who came today has nothing to do with you?
"Miss, you're finally here, the old lady has been waiting for a while!"
Qi Zijin walked forward in small steps while thinking, and just arrived at the eaves of the porch, Shuqin happened to walk out.
"Well, it took some time to freshen up!" Qi Zijin smiled at Shuqin, neither arrogant nor flattering, but a little just the right amount of gentleness.
Shuqin's eyes flashed, no wonder the old lady came back yesterday and muttered that the eldest lady was a little different, and today all this is really the case.
"The eldest lady is dressed up today, which is so eye-catching, the old lady will definitely be happy when she sees it!" Shuqin said, and personally led Qi Zijin in.
The corners of Qi Zijin's lips were slightly hooked, revealing a gentle and decent smile, and he walked slowly behind Shuqin, but inadvertently glanced at Ping'er.
Ping'er nodded slightly, stood in place and did not go in with Qi Zijin.
Qi Zijin walked a few steps and began to beat a drum in his heart, it looked like there was a distinguished guest outside, why was it so quiet inside as if there was no one.
As a result, as soon as she turned into the hall, she almost didn't scare her heart to stop.
The person sitting in the middle was not the culprit who smashed her bed with a palm yesterday, causing her to squeeze Ping'er all night, and got up this morning with a sore back!
What's the matter with a cold face to herself now, she doesn't owe him anything!
"Granddaughter has seen grandmother!" Qi Zijin turned his head and saluted the old lady, as if he didn't see him at all.
The old lady came in from Qi Zijin, and her eyes never left her, today's wife Jin is wearing a light green dress, and her face is not stained with dust, although she is a little cleaner, it looks eye-catching.
Even Pei Tinghao, who was high above, had a little more interest in his eyes!
It's just that her attitude made the old lady worried, for fear that Pei Tinghao would blame, so she hurriedly said, "I haven't seen Uncle Huang yet!"
Although Qi Zijin was very reluctant, he couldn't resist it, so he had to turn his head and pretend that he had just seen Pei Tinghao, and saluted with a smile: "The courtier Qi Zijin has seen the emperor's uncle!"
"I said, you can call me Pei Tinghao!" Pei Tinghao looked at Qi Zijin seriously and said with a cold face.
Qi Zijin is depressed, she is not rare, not to mention that it is a great favor to be able to call his name.
Qi Zijin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and turned to the old lady: "Grandmother, I don't know what is the important thing for you to call your granddaughter?"
"Ahem, there's something!" The old lady quietly glanced at Pei Tinghao, but saw that Pei Tinghao only stared at Qi Zijin coldly, so he had to open his mouth helplessly:
"Uncle Huang said you...... Hug him, you need to be responsible for him, so come and get your birthday today!"
"!" Qi Zijin subconsciously retorted, but as soon as she came out, she was embarrassed, and everyone in the room stared at her, like she was some kind of monster.
Qi Zijin had no choice but to pretend to explain casually: "I mean, he is talking nonsense, no matter how ignorant his granddaughter is, he will not dare to do such a thing!"
As soon as Qi Zijin's voice fell, Pei Tinghao stood up, looked at her condescendingly, and said, "So, are you sure you have never hugged me yourself?"
"I'm sure!" Qi Zijin had to grit his teeth and nodded.
As a result, Pei Tinghao's next sentence almost didn't make Qi Zijin so angry that he had a myocardial infarction!
