The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

—

Qingyin, who didn't know that the scented tea she sent had brought rumors to Lin Nanxu, was happily munching on the peaches sent by her cheap elder brother, holding a storybook in her hand, and lazily lying on the chaise longue enjoying Lily's massage.

In the afternoon, he was called by Lin's father's men and was forced to stop his leisurely vacation time.

Looking at the servant who was completely stunned by the message, Qingyin gave Xianglian a look, and Xianglian immediately understood what she meant. She stuffed the wrapped purse into the servant's hand and said with a smile:

"Okay, our young lady knows and will be here soon. Go and report to the master."

The servant, who was stunned by Qingyin's stunning beauty, listened to Xianglian's words pitifully and returned to the front hall garden of the east courtyard in a daze.

"Master, the eldest lady will be here soon, that is..." Lin Zerui, who was happily chatting with several of his students and his most satisfied son, didn't notice the strange expression and tone of the servant he sent to invite his eldest daughter. He casually waved his hand to signal the servant to leave, and continued to talk to the students who came to the Lin Mansion.

The only one who noticed the servant's strange expression was the indifferent Lin Nanxu. He frowned slightly for a moment, but quickly hid his brows.

What accident happened to Lin Qingqing that caused this boy to have such an expression?

Lin Nanxu lowered his eyebrows slightly, without looking at the servant who retreated, and listened quietly to the three nominal students who came from Lin's father secretly trying to please Lin's father.

His eyes lingered on the son-in-law chosen by Lin's father for a barely noticeable second.

Chen Anping has a steady personality and average talent. In the past, Lin Nanxu would have admired him quite a bit. But today, when he thought that this handsome young man was the fiancé chosen by Lin's father, Lin Nanxu looked at him from left to right and felt displeased with him.

She was promised that this man had an ordinary appearance, a weak character, and spoke in a dull voice. How could he be worthy of her?

Lin Nanxu thought critically, and his eyes became a little cold when he fell on Chen Anping.

Chen Anping, who was being stared at, keenly noticed Lin Nanxu's cold and sharp look. He raised his face with confusion, wondering how he had upset his idol and future brother-in-law.

Looking at Chen Anping's honest face, Shen Chenxing, who was pulling Zhang Xinghe closer, secretly glanced at him with pride.

Oh, even if he becomes the teacher's son-in-law in the future, so what? He has a big mouth but doesn't know how to please others. I'm afraid he will be useless in the future. Shen Chenxing's eyes flashed with contempt, and he secretly cursed Chen Anping.

Maybe Chen Anping will marry an ugly village girl, and he will have to accompany this village woman for the rest of his life!

Zhang Xinghe, who was reluctant to come before, now had his eyes lit up when he saw the little tricks of Shen Chenxing and Chen Anping.

It was so great to be able to meet the noble young master Lin Nanxu in the Lin Mansion. God knows how Young Master Lin had discussed teachings and sharpness with northern students before. He made several great scholars nod their heads with just a few glances, and how many people regarded this Young Master Lin as an idol. His life was full of purity. Zhang Xinghe, who was trying hard to be like his idol, stared at Lin Nanxu with sparkling eyes.

"Mr. Lin, I read the article you wrote in tribute to the northern students. It is so well written! So admirable." Zhang Xinghe said excitedly.

Lin Nanxu nodded slightly, "Thank you for the compliment. If you study hard in the future, that will be fine."

"Yeah." Zhang Xinghe felt energized after getting the recognition from Lin Nanxu, the popular idol among students. He wished he could go back and study hard for three days and six days, improve himself immediately, and let his idol see his progress.

Looking at Zhang Xinghe who got a response from Lin Nanxu, Shen Chenxing gritted his teeth and thought jealously: Haha, he came here and ignored Zhang Xinghe's cleverness. He was really calculating in trying to please Young Master Lin Nanxu, who will definitely have a bright future. No, he can't give all the benefits to this scheming villain.

Shen Chenxing, who was getting nervous, forced himself to join the conversation and looked at Lin Nanxu: "Mr. Lin, I also read your article. I think the views on... in your article are really novel and admirable."

Compared with Zhang Xinghe's sincere and innocent praise, Lin Nanxu ignored Shen Chenxing's remarks which were just superficial boasting in line with the public.

Not everyone can get him to respond.

Shen Chenxing froze.

Shen Chenxing cursed Lin Nanxu's arrogance and contempt in his heart several times, but he forced a smile and continued to add a sentence from time to time.

Looking at the harmonious atmosphere between several students and his eldest son, Father Lin nodded with satisfaction.

As for Lin Nanxu's indifference, hasn't the eldest son always been like this?

Lin Zerui didn't take it seriously and just ignored it.

At this time, Qingyin was also ready to come.

When a gentle and graceful female voice sounded, it broke the liveliness and the scene suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

"Father, my daughter is here." The extremely pleasant female voice immediately attracted a group of men standing in the garden.

Several people turned their heads curiously, and were completely stunned at what they saw.

Lin Zerui turned his head blankly and for a moment he wondered if he had had a dream, so that he saw the stunningly beautiful and dreamy woman with the voice of his eldest daughter standing in the distance.

Lin Zerui called out in a trance: "Qingqing...?"

The beautiful girl nodded and responded, "Father."

Lin Zerui grabbed a handful of thigh flesh, and the physical stimulation overflowed from the corners of his eyes. His father's eyes suddenly lit up, proving the reality of the situation.

His eldest daughter recovered and unexpectedly, unexpectedly looked like this. It was really... God help me!

"My dear daughter, come here quickly." Father Lin turned his head and saw the obsession and amazement in everyone's eyes. He looked at Chen Anping, who had an amazed look and a flushed face among the three.

As for Chen Anping, he is no longer worthy of his eldest daughter.

Father Lin looked at them and his tone turned cold again: "Well, these are some of my students, Chen Anping, Shen Chenxing, and Zhang Xinghe. They are here to visit your eldest brother."

He then introduced Qingyin's identity to them, saying with emphasis: "This is my eldest daughter, and my most beloved daughter—Lin Qingqing."

Recalling the purpose of his visit today, Chen Anping looked at the beautiful girl in front of him and her face turned red. He was so nervous that he even hated himself for not having a good mouth. Chen Anping stammered, "Hello, Miss Lin, I am Chen Anping."

Qing Yin nodded slightly, "Hello, Mr. Chen."

Hearing the girl's gentle voice, Chen Anping's face turned even redder. He opened his mouth for a long time, but finally closed it without knowing what to say.

Seeing Shen Chenxing and Zhang Xinghe talking to this beautiful young lady, they regretted it so much that their intestines turned green. They no longer had any thoughts about their future and power. Their minds and eyes were filled with the beautiful young lady Lin in front of them. They were full of jealousy and envy towards Chen Anping.

The two of them greeted Qingyin nervously. Qingyin nodded lightly and stopped talking.

Noticing Qingyin's discomfort with the overly enthusiastic young men in front of him, the aloof and immortal-like young man quietly moved aside, blocking the fiery gazes of the young men, and interrupted, "Father, my sister is tired, I'll take her back."

Father Lin looked at the fiery gazes of the young people and nodded, "Well, take your sister back to the yard to rest."

Under the reluctant gazes of several people, Qingyin and his handsome "brother" with a cold appearance left the lively garden.

Walking on the way back to Yunjin Pavilion, Lin Nanxu looked at him with his head lowered beside him in his peripheral vision. He could just see the girl's long hair, which was soft and as smooth as silk, and his heart softened as warm water.

It's a pity that he still thinks of himself as a gentleman who is not interested in beautiful women.

Unexpectedly, in the end, he was also the one who couldn't give up the worldly world.

Well, it's his luck to meet such a woman.

Lin Nanxu lowered his head, his eyes softened, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

"Do you like Taozi?"

"Ah." Qing Yin was suddenly awakened by the male voice and looked at the man beside her in confusion, "I like it. Thank you, brother."

"Yeah." Hearing the girl calling him brother, the man subconsciously frowned slightly, but quickly concealed it completely in front of the girl.

"I'm glad you like it. I have another box and I'll send it to you later. Is there anything else you need at home?"

The man spoke gently, his eyes lingering for a moment on the plain hairpin in the girl's bun.

Lin Nanxu could feel women's pursuit of jewelry from his mother, so the girl only had this novel silver hairpin on her head. Although it looked good, it was too monotonous.

The man, who didn't know whether the girl liked jewelry or not, looked at Qingyin quietly. He had already made up his mind to collect a basket of jewelry to give to her.

Qing Yin, who did not notice the hidden emotions in the man's eyes, raised a faint smile, ready to decline his kindness, and said: "Thank you, brother, but the yard is fully equipped and there is nothing missing, so you don't need to worry about it."

Sensing the girl's determined thoughts, Lin Nanxu swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and thought for a moment before speaking: "In that case, I won't say anything else. The peaches are a gift from a good friend. I don't like to eat them, and they will rot if left there. Qingqing, just accept them."

Since things had come to this, Qingyin finally agreed to accept the box of fresh Qingyang peaches.

The fresh and plump peaches showed no signs of going bad as Lin Nanxu had said. Each one was big and red, and was preserved in a layer of natural ice. When Qingyin ate the fresh peaches, the sliced peach flesh even had a slight chill.

In this gradually hot summer, it feels like a cool breeze is blowing, making me so comfortable that I squint my eyes and enjoy the coolness in my mouth.

Ever since she revealed her true face in front of Lin's father that day, the yard had not only seen some servants sent by Lin's father, but also Lin's mother and her twin brothers and sisters who came to see her out of curiosity.

Since that day, this spacious and remote Yunjin Pavilion began to be surrounded by gifts, not only from Lin's father and mother, but also from the twin siblings. Of course, the one who gave the most gifts was Lin Nanxu.

Lin Nanxu didn't care about the price at all when choosing gifts. Qingyin sometimes marveled at how rich her adoptive brother was. Sometimes he would give her not only some novel and delicious fruits, but even exquisite jewelry and clothes inlaid with special gems. Lin Nanxu would get them all and send them to Yunjin Pavilion.

Qingyin declined several times and wanted to return the things Lin Nanxu sent her, but for some reason, she hadn't seen him recently. When she met Lin's father asking about Lin Nanxu, Qingyin saw that Lin's father had a look of deep sorrow and love, so in the end, the matter was left unresolved.

Yunjin Pavilion.

The once remote Yunjin Pavilion is now bustling with people, and occasionally there are always a few uninvited siblings who come to visit.

Qingyin sat at the table, and with her slender fingers she gently cut open the hairy chestnut in her hand and took out the flesh inside.

It is easy to get bored when there is too much free time in the yard. There is a chestnut tree in the yard and the chestnuts on it are ripe. Qingyin asked the servants in the yard to pick them and prepare to peel some and send them to the kitchen to make some chestnut cakes.

Qingyin raised her head and looked helplessly at Lin Wanyu who was staring at her in a daze beside her.

"You came here just to see me?"

Lin Wanyu, with an infatuated look in her eyes, wiped the non-existent saliva from her mouth and smiled shyly: "Hehe, of course not, sister, let me help you peel the chestnuts."

At this time, Lin Wanyu no longer had any of the pride she had before Qingyin came. Her heart and eyes were filled with joy and shyness for Qingyin.

Qingyin glanced at her lightly and did not stop this usually pampered young lady from peeling chestnuts.

Anyway, the truth will make this young lady understand.

Ten minutes later, Lin Wanyu looked at the chestnuts in front of her that were barely peeled and in a terrible shape. She pouted and her competitive spirit was aroused.

Hey, she can't do it. She is a young lady who is good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she can't even peel a chestnut!

A raging fire of war ignited in Lin Wanyu's eyes. She looked at the chestnut in her hand, which was as wide as a finger joint, as if it was her most hated enemy. She held the small scissors in both hands and successfully took out another chestnut that had died tragically.

The girl stared in disbelief at the weak, pitiful chestnut on the table.

Qingyin looked at the scene with a smile in her eyes. She approached Lin Wanyu calmly, lowered her body, picked up a chestnut with her slender hands, and placed it in her hand. Her breath accidentally fell on the girl's ear. Qingyin said gently, "That's not how you peel chestnuts. You need to learn the technique. Ah Yu can try to pick a small bite from the tail first, and then..., see, isn't it better this way?"

Qingyin personally acted out the act of peeling chestnuts in front of Lin Wanyu.

The pretty girl was completely unaware that her body had stiffened.

His ears also turned red.

"I understand." Lin Wanyu glanced furtively at the strange sister next to her, and her eyes happened to meet that pair of bright and gentle eyes, and her face turned red instantly.

No wonder men like gentle women. It’s too unfair when this sister becomes gentle.

Lin Wanyu thought as she quietly avoided Qingyin and slapped herself on the face, forcing herself to stay awake.

Watching Lin Wanyu slowly getting into the process of peeling chestnuts, Qingyin gave up the idea of teaching her and focused on peeling the few remaining chestnuts in her hand.

The remaining chestnuts were quickly gone as the two of them worked slowly.

Xiang Lian brought over a basin of hot water. Qing Yin washed her hands before looking at Lin Wanyu, whose face was still blushing.
