Chapter 164: You Must Take the Initiative
After a few people chatted for a while, they dispersed.
Fang Hanhai not only prepared a room for Fang Qingyi, but also prepared a room for Ling Jiuqiu not far away.
Ling Jiuqiu couldn't refuse, so he had to stay at Fang's house temporarily, and he and Fang Xianhui agreed to set off for Tongyuan City together tomorrow.
In fact, between Tongyuan City and Ruidong City, the straight-line distance is only about 200 kilometers, and the two of them can rush on horseback, and if they are fast, they can arrive in one day, and if they are not in a hurry, it will only take two days.
But in order to avoid unexpected situations, the two decided to set off early.
After coming to the room.
Ling Jiuqiu sat down quietly and cultivated.
The other side.
Fang Hanhai summoned Fang Qingyi again.
"What do you think of Jiuqiu?"
Fang Hanhai asked straight to the point.
Although Fang Qingyi was a little shy, she still spoke directly: "He is very good in all aspects, whether it is talent, personality, thoughts, or personality, he is impeccable in all aspects, and I have a good impression of him." ”
Fang Hanhai smiled slightly.
"When your father came back from a message, he introduced Ling Jiuqiu and mentioned that he wanted to match the two of you, but I think that with the powerful position of our family, there is no need to sacrifice the happiness of his family to win over others, no matter how genius he is."
"If you don't want to, no one can force it."
"So, I just carefully observed Ling Jiuqiu's words and deeds, and now I'm asking your own opinion."
"Since you have a good impression of Ling Jiuqiu, and his personality is a person, I think it's not bad at the moment."
"So, I'll find a way to match you up, as your father suggested, what do you think?"
Talking about this kind of topic with her grandfather, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, made Fang Qingyi feel a little shy, but thinking of the scene when she made Jiuqiu desperately save her from the bandits' guns, a surge of courage rose in her heart.
She knew that the next conversation was likely to be about her own happiness, because if she wanted to develop with Ling Jiuqiu, she had to get the consent of her family, or even the active support of her family.
So, she still endured her shyness, looked at her grandfather seriously, and nodded, "I do." ”
Fang Hanhai sighed lightly at this time:
"The only pity is that through the series of performances just now, I can see that Jiuqiu seems to just treat you as an ordinary friend, and has no special favor."
Hearing this, Fang Qingyi was a little frustrated.
"Indeed, on the way back to the family, although Jiuqiu behaved politely, it was only polite, except for a few familiar performances, most of the time it didn't seem to have any intention of getting closer to me."
Fang Hanhai said: "I am from here, and I can see from his words, deeds and eyes that he has no special thoughts about you. ”
"So, if you want to make progress with him, you have to take the initiative."
"But ......"
Fang Qingyi hesitated: "If you take the initiative too much, will it make him feel disgusted?" ”
Fang Hanhai shook his head:
"Taking the initiative is not to let you take the initiative to give you a hug, let alone let you stalk, but to let you take the initiative to approach him, and through long-term contact, let him discover your various advantages, so as to have a good impression of you."
"Through the intelligence and Jiuqiu's performance just now, I can see that he is a very assertive person, and he has a mature heart, and he doesn't eat oil and salt, so your performance can't be too direct."
"My plan is to arrange you to Tongyuan City, so that you have more opportunities to contact Jiuqiu, but not too often, so as not to disturb his cultivation and life, causing him to be disgusted."
Fang Qingyi was stunned and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”
The corners of Fang Hanhai's mouth rose, revealing a strange smile: "In this regard, you can ask your grandmother, she should understand better." ”
"Huh?!"
Fang Qingyi looked at her grandfather dumbfounded: "What do you mean, grandma was ...... back then"
Fang Hanhai waved his hand:
"Go ahead, go and ask your grandma, and don't miss the reception banquet later."
……
Evening.
When Ling Jiuqiu was still cultivating, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Fang Qingyi's voice came from outside the door: "Jiuqiu, the reception banquet is about to start, let's go over together." ”
Ling Jiuqiu got up and opened the door.
Fang Qingyi happened to be standing outside the door with a smile.
At this time, she was wearing a green tulle dress, which set off her graceful figure more and more concave, and the whole person exuded the unique youth and beauty of a girl, and a fluttering aura.
When she was in the wild, she wore a women-only martial arts uniform most of the time, although she looked heroic, but after all, she lacked some of the youthful vitality of a girl.
Now that he is dressed up carefully, he has fully shown his pure and quiet side, which makes Ling Jiuqiu's eyes shine.
After glancing at the other party, he hesitated:
"Your family's dinner, it's a little inappropriate for me to go as an outsider, right?"
Noticing Ling Jiuqiu's gaze, Fang Qingyi suddenly felt happy in her heart, and the smile on her face became more and more delicate.
"Although it is a reception banquet, it is also a farewell for you and Cousin Xianhui, and there are not too many people, you don't have to feel embarrassed in Jiuqiu."
As she spoke, she thought of what her grandmother had said to her, and she couldn't help but blush slightly.
However, on her peach-like face, this change in complexion was not very obvious.
Ling Jiuqiu nodded helplessly: "Okay then." ”
The two of them went to the dining room together.
Perhaps in order to avoid embarrassment to Jiuqiu, Fang Hanhai didn't invite too many people, but the four people who met in the afternoon, plus Fang Qingyi's grandmother and Fang Xianhui's parents, a total of seven people attended.
In fact.
For the entire Sixth Courtyard of the Side Line, Fang Qingyi was just an ordinary clansman.
Her return home was not a big deal, if it weren't for the presence of Ling Jiuqiu, the sixth dean, Fang Hanhai, would not necessarily attend the reception banquet.
The other clansmen are busy on their own, and they don't take time out of their way to come.
At the feast.
The seven of them staggered and greeted each other politely.
"In the Yanlong Martial Arts Academy, there are countless top geniuses, although Xianhui has a few brothers of the same clan in the academy, but after all, they are not in the same grade, and they are not as close as your classmates, in the future, I hope you will have the opportunity to take more care."
Fang Xianhui's mother is a graceful and beautiful woman, only about thirty years old in terms of face and dress, and she is quite exquisitely maintained.
At this time, she raised her hand lightly, raised her wine glass and took the initiative to toast to Ling Jiuqiu, and greeted warmly.
This world has a strong martial arts, but not only men practice martial arts, but women are also proficient in martial arts, naturally not like the ancient times in Ling Jiuqiu's previous life, they can only sit alone in the deep boudoir, but most of them are more bold in dealing with people.
Even in this world, in addition to women marrying men with their husband's surname, it is also common for men to marry women with their wife's surname.
Fang Xianhui's mother Fang Xiuna was born in a wealthy family, and now she is a noble lady of a family, and her martial arts cultivation is naturally not bad.
People in the family, whether they are high-level or middle-level, rarely have wine bags and rice bags.
For civilians, many children of the family may be arrogant and domineering, or even do all kinds of evil.
But for a top Tianjiao like Ling Jiuqiu, not only will they not take the initiative to offend, but they will try their best to get closer to each other.
Of course, if they have already offended, they will also not show mercy, and even be extremely ruthless.
This is one of the reasons why the Maison has been able to survive for thousands of years.
