When I returned to the mansion, I saw Xiang Bing sitting at the door with a mournful face, and I didn't need to ask Ling Yu to know that it was Qu He who came again.Since staying here for two months last time, Qu He was finally invited back by his father himself.

The Qu family in Beijing is very conspicuous among many aristocratic families, not because of how powerful they are in the court, but because of their wealth.

The Qu family has not been limited to the world for generations, unlike some aristocratic families who disdain business, and have accumulated huge wealth from generation to generation, and the court has always been neutral.However, the only young lady of the Qu family ran to the third prince's mansion every now and then. Son, but the king's heart is unpredictable, without the backing of a powerful family, it will be unsustainable after all.

This time, it was only a month or so later, while his father was away from home, Qu He left a letter to his two older brothers who were busy earning money, and came to Ling Yu's place openly again.

Ji Qing was holding the Lily Cake that was supposed to be delivered to the Qu Mansion, but he didn't dare to deliver it when the Lord was in front of him, so he could only order the kitchen to deliver it as a snack after dinner. After thinking about it, he added a case of lotus chicken for dinner. , he knew that Qu He liked it.

At this time, Qu He was catching Zhao An enjoying the cool in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. There were many lotus seeds, lotus pods and melon and fruit snacks on the table. Zhao An was peeling lotus seeds with a small face. He said with a crooked smile as he ate, "I would like to admit defeat, even if I guessed odd or even double, I couldn't guess it right once. I'm so stupid."

As soon as Zhaoan woke up and couldn't find anyone, he hid in Ling Yu's study and practiced calligraphy alone. Unexpectedly, he was caught by Qu He, who had just arrived in the mansion and couldn't find anyone, and insisted on taking him to the Huxin Pavilion. Picking lotus, I have worked so hard to pick a bunch of lotus pods.But before he had time to eat, Qu He rolled his eyes and tried to guess odds and pairs with himself with melon seeds. In the end, he always lost, so he peeled the lotus seeds all afternoon, and Qu He ate them leisurely one by one. bad guy.

As soon as he saw a pile of melon seeds on the table, Ling Yu understood what was going on, and he coughed lightly.

Qu He hurriedly cleaned up his domineering posture quickly, and instantly transformed into a charming little girl. He turned around and saluted, and called sweetly, "Brother Yu."

Zhao'an's eyes widened from watching from the side, and Ling Yu also smiled, then lightly patted off the lotus skin still sticking to her skirt, and said, "Okay, Ji Qing didn't follow."

Qu He looked out, and seeing that Ling Yu was indeed alone, he breathed a sigh of relief, hurried over and hugged Ling Yu's arm and smiled flatteringly: "Where is he?"

"In the front yard," she was thinking, how could Ling Yu not understand, but he knew that Ji Qing always knew how to measure, so he left it to Qu He. The children of aristocratic families are always helpless, especially women, and marriage is usually It's a bargaining chip, and I can't help myself at all, Ling Yu continued, "The piano that was sent to the Qin Pavilion for repair the day before yesterday should also be picked up today. , Qin Zhong, let Ji Qing go with you, okay?"

"Okay, okay..." Qu He withdrew his hand, with a look in his eyes, and said happily, "Thank you brother Yu!"

"Come back before dinner, be careful not to get heat stroke." Ling Yu reminded.

"Yeah." Qu He agreed wholeheartedly, and then ran to the front yard, and the pink dress was reflected in the boundless lotus pond, which was so beautiful.

Ling Yu watched her go away, shook his head, turned his head to look at Zhao'an who was looking up at him behind him, the light in his eyes flickered, then bent down and hugged him, as if exhausting all his strength.

Zhao'an happily let him hug him, and when he had enough, he held a dozen or so peeled lotus seeds in front of Ling Yu like treasures, which he secretly saved while the bad guy was not paying attention , to keep it for the person in front of him, seeing that he didn't move, he hurriedly persuaded: "It's delicious, sweet."

Looking at Zhao'an's round eyes, Ling Yu laughed, took it and put one in his mouth, it was really fragrant, and said: "Mmm, it's delicious."

After receiving Ling Yu's affirmation, Zhao'an smiled embarrassedly, approached Ling Yu timidly, and then hugged the arm Qu He hugged just now with his small arms, thinking, I will give you lotus seeds before hugging. You, unlike the villain just now, who took advantage and didn't give anything. In contrast, don't let her hug you next time, and your arms won't work either.

This is Xiao Zhao'an's true inner thoughts who still don't know what acting like a baby is.

Ling Yu thought he was just being wronged, and said, "Why, have you been bullied by Qu He?"

It was only then that Zhaoan remembered that he had just peeled the lotus seeds, and his hands were dirty. Seeing that Ling Yu's white sleeves had been stained by himself, he quickly withdrew his hand nervously, and said sullenly, "No... …we count the melon seeds to see if it ends up being odd or even, and I always get it wrong.”

Ling Yu smiled knowingly, and then said: "The Qu He family has been in business for generations, and she herself is very keen on numbers, and has a lot of tricks. Sometimes I may not be able to beat her, let alone you."

The child has a strong recovery ability. After half a year of careful care at the house, some flesh has finally grown on his face, which is not as thin as when he first arrived, and his hands are much whiter and tender.

Ling Yu led him to sit down, took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped his little dirty hands, and continued, "If you already know her strengths, don't rashly bet on what she is good at, next time she asks for it. Bet, you can bet with her on poetry and idioms. She hates it. If she doesn't want to, just challenge her again, and maybe she will agree. The worst result is that the two sides can't reach an agreement and don't gamble. , others can’t take advantage of it.”

Zhao'an seemed to understand, but still nodded solemnly, and was a little embarrassed after a while: "My poems and idioms are not very good..."

Ling Yu said with a smile: "Then you have to work hard, people have their strengths, and those who are useful can live a better life, otherwise you will finish peeling the lotus seeds in summer, and you will still have chestnuts in autumn, and the cycle goes on and on, and you will be sent for a lifetime .”

Zhao'an nodded with a vague understanding.

And strive to specialize in the field of poetry, poetry and literature. This is the first correct detour that Zhao An took. After that, he never fell into her trap because of a bet with Qu He. It can only be used to beat Qu He. When Qu He doesn't accept the move, this advantage seems weak and boring.
