Chapter 12: The Guest Comes Again
After returning to Tan's Mansion, Qiao Yuanfei couldn't afford to fall ill.
In order to let her recuperate with peace of mind, Qiao Shi called several maids to come over and keep an eye on her. The Wang family wanted to come to find trouble several times, but they were pushed back by Qiao's neither soft nor hard.
When the illness was about to be cured, Qiao Yuanfei heard that the sage ordered the uncle Tan Shilang to go home and reflect on it behind closed doors.
This reflection will take two months.
The punishment didn't seem to be heavy, but it was extremely slap in the face, and the most important thing was to cut off Tan Shilang's further thoughts at this critical moment.
The Tan family was closed for several days.
When the door was opened again, it was the lord of Wenhua who gave the ladies a post of a flower-viewing banquet.
Qiao Yuanfei is just a cousin who comes to the door, and it stands to reason that she can't fight with these girls in Beijing, who would have thought that the county lord of Wenhua would also post to her.
And not only her, there are all the girls in Tan Mansion, and the second girl, Tan Ling, is no exception.
Tan Yun came to Qiao Yuanfei with the post, and as soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Qiao Yuanfei wearing a cloak and standing under the porch to watch the spring flowers.
At this time, the spring flowers have bloomed and failed, and under the green leaves are bunches of languishing that will not fall.
But Qiao Yuanfei had his eyebrows half-drooping, and he could see it.
She was quite tall, and because of her thinness, the layers of clothes looked heavy.
Under the cloak is the usual plain dress, not even a little embroidery, light and a little shabby.
It was probably not long after I got up, and my hair was not combed properly, such as Waterfall Qingsi, and I only used a hairband to tie loosely behind my shoulders.
At a glance, there is a bit of fragility in the demure.
Such Qiao Yuanfei overlapped instantly with the girl who went to Xuanzhou alone to seek refuge with her aunt.
Tan Yun suddenly even made her footsteps softer, and her voice was small: "Sister Iris." ”
Qiao Yuan flew back and saw the little girl walking with something.
The butterfly hairpin on the double bun moved with her steps, making the already lively person a little more agile.
Qiao Yuanfei couldn't help but bend her eyes, and asked softly, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
Tan Yun grinned: "I've eaten at my mother's place, is my sister better?" ”
Qiao Yuanfei nodded.
Tan Yun handed over a gilded post: "Lord Wenhua invited us to participate in the flower viewing banquet in five days. ”
Qiao Yuanfei raised his eyebrows and took the post.
The payment is a delicate hairpin, but it is a good word.
Tan Yun said beside him: "The county lord invited many people, and several girls from the big house also invited them. ”
Qiao Yuanfei thought of Tan Ling and asked, "How is the second girl now?" ”
Tan Yun whispered: "The eldest aunt locked people in the courtyard and didn't give them food or drink. ”
"How many days?"
"It's been almost seven days."
7th ...... If you really haven't eaten or drunk, I'm afraid you'll be dead.
Qiao Yuanfei put down the post and put the cloak behind him: "It's time too." ”
Before Tan Yun understood what this meant, she saw a little maid walking quickly and said, "Cousin, that guest is here again, saying that he won't leave if he can't see you today." ”
Tan Yun's eyes widened instantly: "Which guest, why is he so rude?" ”
The smile in Qiao Yuanfei's eyes also faded a little, and she lowered her hand and asked calmly, "Uncle and aunt are there?" ”
The little maid nodded: "It's all here, it was the second lady who sent the slave and maid." ”
Qiao Yuanfei said: "That is the case, you go and talk back first, and I will come later." ”
After the little maid left, Qiao Kite flew back to the house to make up.
Tan Yun followed behind with broken thoughts, and when she saw Qiao Yuanfei's fully exposed forehead, she suddenly paused.
After raising for more than ten days, the injury on Qiao Yuanfei's forehead has healed, but in response to Qiao's words, he left a small scar.
The color of this scar is not deep, but Qiao Yuanfei's skin is white, and no matter how you look at it, it feels dazzling.
Dongye wanted to divide some pieces of hair to cover it, but Qiao Yuanfei said lightly: "Don't cover it, since the other party apologizes for this, it can't disappoint people and return!" ”
