ZangJiao

To put it bluntly, it’s better to come early than coincidentally.

Hua Qingsi also came here considering the old lady's sleep time, so it was just right not too early or too late.

"Come in and worship."

Hua Qingsi came alone, because she was worried that grandma would be in a bad mood because she went to the cemetery, so she opened the door and walked around the living room to the bedroom, where the old lady and Aunt Yu were discussing something with their hands in their hands.

"Grandma, Grandma Yu, what are you looking at?"

"Qingsi, come here quickly, how about this piece of brocade in my hand?" The old lady greeted her, she didn't know what she was looking at, and couldn't hide the smile on her face at all.

After all, Hua Qingsi is also the third miss of the Hua family, and she knows a little about the ancestral craftsmanship.

Hua Qingsi's eyes lit up when he saw it, "This brocade is so beautiful, it will definitely look good in new clothes for grandma."

The old lady was overjoyed, and took her hand, "Silly boy, grandma prepared this for you."

"give me?"

The old lady said solemnly, "Yes, it is prepared for you. You are a young lady of our Hua family. When you get married in the future, you will definitely wear a wedding dress made by yourself. This brocade is left to you by grandma."

"..."

Hua Qingsi has also heard about the wedding dress made by the elders and given to the younger generation.

"This piece of brocade is so fine, it's a pity to make a wedding dress. I'd better make clothes for grandma and save them for my wedding day. Grandma must be very beautiful."

The old lady looked at her dotingly, "Don't argue and just listen to grandma. I just thought that you will be 24 soon and you will go on a blind date. If you meet a suitable one, you should prepare this wedding dress."

When she mentioned getting married, she immediately thought of Sheng Baiyi, and her face turned red uncontrollably.But the brocade was too beautiful, with a bright luster, and there was nothing wrong with the reflection on her face.

"Your Grandma Yu and I will sew for you. Qingsi will definitely be the most beautiful when she gets married." The old lady pulled her out of the bedroom, "Grandma will not force you to go on a blind date. Go if you want to, and don't go if you don't want to."

"However, a 24-year-old girl should also fall in love. If there is a suitable one, we will decide."

Hua Qingsi observed grandma's expression, and said carefully, "You don't object to my falling in love?"

The old lady smiled and looked at her, "What is a 24-year-old girl against? When I was your age, your second uncle was about to be born..."

In fact, the Hua family originally had five children. The old lady had a very good life, and all five were sons, but the real eldest died of illness due to poor medical conditions at the time.

"As long as she really likes you and you like him, grandma won't object."

Hua Qingsi smiled and tried a little bit, "Uncle still wants to keep me for two years, he doesn't seem to want me to fall in love."

"It's because you haven't met anyone." The two sat down on the sofa, and Aunt Yu, who had put away the brocade, came out and made a pot of the old lady's favorite Pu'er. "Your uncle went to Dongdu last time. I praised that Mr. Shen many times before."

"Look, your uncle likes him very much. In fact, 32 years old is not very old. Your grandfather is 12 years older than me. I have been with him for decades."

"A few male friends around you, your brother-in-law treats them with the standard of identifying nieces and son-in-laws."

Hua Sheng naturally hopes to keep his niece for two more years, but rationally speaking, it's perfectly fine to fall in love at this age, you can get in touch now, and it won't be too late to get married when the time is right, if you delay it for another two years and become an old girl...

The old lady stared at her and was also probing, "What do you think of that Mr. Shen?"

The phrase 'he is my boyfriend' was already on his lips, but after going around it, he finally didn't say it. He just said, "Mr. Shen is very nice."

The old lady was concerned, and patted the back of her hand, "I have the opportunity to invite him to Jiangnan as a guest, so I can see what Mr. Shen, whom the third child and you both praise, is like."

At 06:30 in the evening, the family gathered in the main room for dinner, except Hua Jiangqing who was punished to kneel.

Liu Liyuan opened her mouth several times, but she couldn't plead for mercy. Naturally, the second child's family would not help plead for mercy.

After the dinner was over, Aunt Yu pretended to raise her mouth after the servants finished cleaning up.

"Old lady, the eldest lady is still kneeling in the ancestral hall."

Drinking tea after meals is the habit of the old lady, and Hua Qingsi is making tea with her.

"Really." The old lady raised her eyes, "Is she so obedient and kneeling all the time?"

Aunt Yu smiled and said, "Maybe I know I was wrong."

The old lady said, "Jiang Qing is not a character who easily admits mistakes, I'm afraid she often blames me in her heart."

The two of you talked to each other, making Huayuan and his wife's faces very ugly, they all understood, but they were just using Hua Jiangqing's incident to beat the inner meaning.

"Forget it, let her come out."

Huayuan came up and nodded, "Thank you mother."

"You don't have to thank me. My own children are the housekeepers. I'm too old to take care of the juniors. As your mother, I just hope that at my age, I don't have to worry about you."

"Parents should set an example, not lead their children to jump into the pit."

These words were not only addressed to Huayuan, but also to beat the second child's family.

The old lady has never seen any kind of tricks before, these tricks, calculations, but they didn't count on Hua Qingsi, otherwise the old lady would sit idly by.

"I remember what my mother said."

In the main room, Huazhi also responded, "Understood, mother."

"Go and get busy if you have nothing to do, I'll talk to Qingsi for a while." The old lady didn't bother to speak, and flicked her arm away.

Hua Sheng, who was sitting on the sofa playing a small game, twitched the corner of his mouth. Everyone was not ignorant, and left the main room resentfully.

After nine o'clock in the evening, Hua Qingsi accompanied grandma back to the room, the two soaked their feet together, and talked for a while, and the old lady went to bed after ten o'clock.

Hua Qingsi went back to the room, took a shower, changed clothes, and did skin care before calling Sheng Baiyi.

Sheng Baiyi had really waited for this call for a long time.

"Ninth brother."

"Busy working?"

"Well, I just went to bed and got ready to rest." She got up early today and had a lot of things to do when she got home, so she was sleepy at the moment, not to mention that it was past eleven o'clock and it was not too early.

The two chatted for a while, Hua Qingsi closed his eyes sleepily, and asked, seemingly unintentionally, "Ninth Brother, do you know that there are some customs here in Jiangnan?"

I don't know which aspect she asked.

"What custom?"

She smiled to herself, "It's nothing, just ask casually."

She never speaks without reason, so if she asks this, there must be something wrong, Sheng Baiyi didn't ask any further, thinking about investigating by herself.

"What's the plan for tomorrow?"

"Go see your friends. I also have neighbors who played well when I was young. It's just a girl. We have been married for more than a year. Every time we go back to Jiangnan, we will get together."

"There is also a friend with a special status."

special friend?

Sheng Baiyi twisted the agarwood, "Male?"

Hua Qingsi turned sideways, buried half of her face in the pillow, the corners of her mouth were curved, "It's a girl, but she's a star, so she's special."

Teased by Hua Qingsi, he smiled to himself, "My family's Si'er is naughty, knowing Brother Ninth is possessive and still saying that on purpose, a gathering of girlfriends is just a gathering of girlfriends, and playing tricks."

Hua Qingsi said, "You have people in the south of the Yangtze River. You will know that I will go out tomorrow. You asked me on purpose. You are also teasing me."

"oppressive rule."

"Qingsi."

He suddenly changed his address, and shouted a little more seriously.

Hua Qingsi was taken aback, "Huh?"

"You are far away from me, do you know?"

"I know, I know."

"So, don't seduce me. I have thought about flying to Jiangnan countless times to meet you, hug you, and kiss you. Si'er, when you are by my side, you don't joke with me like this."

"Baby, Brother Nine likes you very much."

"..."

I don't know if it's this 'baby' or this 'like', Hua Qingsi's complexion instantly rose to a high temperature, the roots of his ears were scorching hot, and his palpitations were a little hypoxic.

Sheng Baiyi treats others differently, but only treats Hua Qingsi with one side.

They are all hot and affectionate, captivating.

"you……"

Sheng Baiyi laughed in a low voice, "Brother Nine has annoyed you again, hasn't he?"

"Correct!"

"I, I rest."

The little lady who couldn't help being amused only wanted to hang up the phone and said to rest, but the phone didn't hang up.

No one spoke for a while, the quiet electric current was in his ears, like a lover's slight sigh in his ears, Sheng Baiyi got up and went downstairs to make a cup of grapefruit tea and added a lot of honey.

"You can say whatever you want, Brother Jiu is hanging up the phone when you fall asleep, huh?"

Hua Qingsi had already hidden under the quilt, and his voice was buzzing when he spoke, "It's nothing, I miss you very much."

"Si'er, do you know what you mean when you say you miss me to Brother Jiu?"

"represents what?"

"It means, let me come to see you, just one meeting."

She did want to see him.

It's so strange, is it because I fell in love for the first time? I didn't confirm the relationship for a long time. I'm in love, so I think about him and miss him all the time.

"No, I just want to hear more of your voice."

She just returned to Jiangnan, so it must be hypocritical to let him come like this.

When Sheng Baiyi went upstairs, he glanced at the dark neighbor, the window was also opened a small gap by the glass, and the chilly wind blew in, making his heart feel cold.

"You like to listen to stories about Nanyang, so let me tell you stories, okay?"

Hiding in the quilt, she hummed softly.

She didn't talk for long, and she fell asleep exhausted. Sheng Baiyi put down the hot phone and pinched the space between her eyebrows...

Why didn't he miss her, didn't want to see her.
