Let me be a concubine? I turned to someone else's arms

Cui Jie knelt on the couch on the grass, raised her eyebrows at Xie Qi, and said teasingly: "Xie Qi, I didn't expect that you would have the day to play with a girl named Tanchun."

"I never thought that Brother Wuqiu would have the chance to travel with his wife and children. I really envy you."

“Hahaha…” Cui Jie laughed, “Don’t be envious, aren’t you also about to get married?”

Cui Jie casually embraced his wife and children in his arms, his eyes moving between Luo Qin and Xie Qi, with a look of "I understand it all" on his face.

When Xie Qi met Cui Jie's teasing gaze, her ears turned slightly red and she lowered her head on the spot, looking shy.

Luo Qin was extremely embarrassed. Rufang happened to come with a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead. Luo Qin saw this opportunity and turned her face away.

Cui Jie noticed Luo Qin's outstanding appearance and was surprised. She turned to ask Xie Qi: "Whose family is this girl from? She looks unfamiliar to me."

Such a beautiful little girl must be new. If she grew up in Jiankang, how could he not have seen or heard of her?

"This is Aqin from the Luo family, a girl from the Luo branch." Xie Qi introduced.

Then he said to Luo Qin: "Miss Luo, this young man is the eldest grandson of Grand Tutor Cui of the Qinghe Cui family. His given name is Jie, and his courtesy name is Wu Gou. You can call him Brother Wu Gou. The woman next to Brother Wu Gou is his wife, Wang, who is Brother Wu Xie's cousin."

Wuxie is the courtesy name of Wang Zuo from the Wang family of Langya. The wife Cui Jie married was from the Wang family of Langya.

Since Xie Qi had already introduced her, Luo Qin couldn't avoid it. She bowed to the couple and said, "Luo Qin greets the two nobles."

"Miss Luo, you are so polite." Cui Jie nodded casually, her eyes fell on her face, and she thought to herself that this girl from the Luo family was extremely beautiful, and it was a good deal for Xie Qi.

Wang was holding the child in her arms and couldn't help but be amazed at Luo Qin's appearance.

It is not certain that there is such an outstanding girl in Jiankang. It seems that the flower god of this year's Flower Festival may have to be replaced.

During the Jiankang Flower Festival, the flower goddess is selected by unmarried noble ladies from each family performing their talents on stage. Five famous scholars in the audience then evaluate and choose the most talented and beautiful girl to be the flower goddess. The girl is then painted into a painting of ladies for people to admire.

In previous years, the flower goddess selection was dominated by Cui Xianxian, the legitimate daughter of the Cui family, who is also Cui Jie's biological sister.

But last year Cui Xianxian arranged a marriage and will get married in June this year. This year's Flower Festival will be her last time to participate in the election.

I just don't know what talents this beautiful little girl has. Since she is from a branch of the Luo family, there are no good teachers like those in Jiankang in this remote place, nor enough money to hire good musicians or chess players to teach her. Just having good looks is not enough.

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Cui Jie invited Xie Qi and Luo Qin to sit together. Xie Qi asked Luo Qin about her wishes, and after seeing Luo Qin nodded in agreement, she took her with her to set up the table and couch next to Cui.

Xie Qi's people brought a lot of food, which surprised Luo Qin because she didn't expect to play for so long, so she didn't prepare lunch. But Xie Qi prepared them all.

Looking at the table full of stewed meat and blanched vegetables on the low table, Luo Qin just felt that her mouth had no taste. It was not for any other reason. There were no iron pots in that era, and all the dishes were stewed without even a hint of spiciness. She still preferred stir-fried dishes because they were more flavorful.

Xie Qi was a very considerate, gentle and polite young man, and he personally cut the meat for Luo Qin.

In this era, when cooking, the meat was first stewed in a bronze cauldron, then taken out, cut with a knife, and served on a plate.

The young man in front of him was busy cutting meat with a dagger, and his white hands were stained with oil. This should have been done by a servant, but he did it himself. Luo Qin felt bad, "Thank you, sir. Let Rufang do it."

"It doesn't matter."

Without even raising her head, Xie Qi continued to cut the meat, put it on a porcelain plate and placed it in front of her, smiling with curved eyebrows, "Miss Luo, please eat."

"Thank you."

For a moment, Luo Qin thought that if the Luo family really wanted her to marry a man from a noble family, then marrying Xie Qi would not be a bad idea.

Young people are sincere and pure. If they like a girl, they will try their best to treat her well. Luo Qin is easily moved by this passionate feeling.

But it was only for a moment. She thought of Jin Zhao, that cold and unruly man, who treated her very well when he loved her, but in the end only wanted her to be his concubine.

When it comes to marriage, you still need to consider a lot.
