Chapter 34 The Murderer (1)

Going to Qiu's house as a guest, of course, this matter must be reported to the old lady. Otherwise, it must be criticized. But fortunately, Yuxi doesn't have to say it by herself.

The old lady shook her head helplessly when she got the news. Normally speaking, Jianming should have brought Yuru and Yujing with him to visit Qiu's house, after all, even if they were concubines, they were called Qiu's mother. But Qiu Shi has a stubborn personality, and has always been indifferent to the concubine, no matter how much she persuades, it is useless. Where there is gain, there is loss. When she hired the Qiu family for her eldest son, she also looked at the Mid-Autumn family's family background and the Qiu family's ability to manage money. But because the Qiu family has only had three generations since its beginnings, and the background is too shallow, so the Qiu family has many shortcomings as a clan wife.

The old lady looked at the emptiness around Yuxi's neck, remembering the last time she went to Zhou's house, the old lady turned her head and ordered Jadeite to fetch a red gold necklace and gave it to Yuxi, saying: "I will wear it to visit relatives tomorrow." It's not that Yuxi thinks it's shabby, on the contrary, Yuxi dresses too much like she's rich. In the middle of this red gold necklace is a piece of mutton fat jade, which looks elegant when worn.

Yuxi took the collar and hung it around her neck, and saluted the old lady: "Thank you for the reward, grandma." Not to mention the carved patterns on the side, the piece of jade in the middle is worth hundreds of taels of silver. For a moment, Yuxi felt that she should be a filial child in front of the old lady, so that she could get more of what she had before. But this thought flashed by, I might as well learn more things if I have this time, that is what really belongs to me.

Mrs. Han looked at Yuxi's face of being a money fan and showed displeasure. At the old lady's age, there is nothing she needs to avoid in the Duke's mansion, so she spoke very directly: "Be careful when you are a guest at someone's house next year, don't lose it. The face of the Duke's Mansion."

Yuxi's complexion darkened, and she bowed her head in response.

Not long after breakfast on the second day, Han Jianye came to pick up Yuxi. When the two arrived at the door, they found that Shizi was there, and Yu Xi hurriedly called out, "Brother." Shizi and Han Jianye are brothers, but it's a pity that one is too calm and the other is too detached. And Yuxi had a good relationship with Han Jianye in her previous life, but she kept her distance from Han Jianming because he was too strict.

Yuxi is wearing bright red clothes today, combing two small hairdos, with delicate red coral wrapped around her head, and a red gold necklace around her neck, plus Yuxi's round face, she looks really rich and lovely.

The prince smiled and said, "Get in the carriage!" His mother treated Yuxi like her own daughter, otherwise she would not have agreed with Jianye to take her to her grandfather's house. However, she has heard the changes of Yuxi these days, and she is happy to see the results.

Han Jianye was afraid that Yuxi would be bored in the carriage alone, so he took the carriage with Yuxi, and told Yuxi about the situation of his uncle's family: "My grandfather and second uncle both work outside, and now I am the only one in Beijing. My uncle’s family. Don’t be afraid, my eldest aunt is a kind person, and my cousins ​​are also very good-natured.” Mr. Qiu has only two sons and one daughter, both born of Mrs. Qiu, between the three brothers and sisters of the Qiu family. The relationship is very deep, so the relationship between the two is very close.

Yuxi knew that Xiao Shi, the eldest wife of the Qiu family, was a kind person, otherwise she would not have agreed to her younger son's marriage in her previous life. You know, marrying her won't bring any benefits to her son, and she doesn't have anything to show for herself. Yuxi deliberately asked: "Is my eldest cousin about the same age as me?"

Han Jianye shook his head and said, "The eldest cousin is already nine years old, but the fourth and fifth cousins ​​are about the same age as you, so they should be able to play."

Yuxi felt that Han Jianye was really off-line, so she said helplessly: "Second brother, I remember that only the eldest cousin of the Qiu family is the daughter of the concubine." Concubine and Concubine are two different circles. If she makes friends with a concubine, she will be squeezed out by other concubines when she goes out to socialize in the future, and it will be embarrassing. I still remember that in her previous life, she made friends with Qiu Yanfu, a merchant woman, but was despised and rejected by others in the end.

Han Jianye didn't turn his head,

Didn't understand what Yu Xi meant, so she just said: "The fourth and fifth cousins ​​are concubines, but it doesn't matter as long as you can play. My second brother is also a concubine, and I have a good relationship with him." Han Jianye's second brother Lin Fengyuan is The concubine of Duke Ding.

Yuxi is speechless, Lin Yuanfeng is a man, even if he was born with a lower status, as long as he has the ability to fight for his own future, he doesn't worry about the future, but the concubine is different. But Yuxi would not argue with Han Jianye over this matter, it was meaningless.

The Qiu family and the South Korean government belonged to two directions, and it took more than an hour to arrive.

Yuxi has been to Qiu's house several times in her previous life, but this is the first time she has visited Qiu's house. Yuxi deliberately pretended to be very interested, and said, "Second brother, the layout here is not as exquisite as ours, but it is very grand."

Han Jianye said with a smile: "My grandfather's family is all generals, not as particular as ours." Han Jianye's temperament is more like that of the Qiu family.

Xiao Shi was a little surprised when he saw Yuxi, but since it was brought by two nephews, he must treat her well. Not only gave a thick red envelope, but also gave Yuxi a string of red coral bracelets as a meeting gift.

Yu Xi murmured in her heart that this red coral bracelet was not a waste of time. Yu Xi suddenly found out that she had become a money fan without knowing it. Everything you get has to be valued.

Mrs. Xiao wanted to greet the guests, and Qiu Jingjing, the eldest daughter of the Qiu family, also went to her natal family to pay New Year's greetings today, so Mrs. Xiao asked the fourth daughter, Qiu Huanhuan, and the fifth daughter, Qiu Lele, to talk with Yuxi. The two girls are both beautiful, and they have a very good attitude when they see Yuxi.

Although Yuxi has some scruples, but now it is a normal communication between relatives, so it is natural to be well-mannered, or else there is no tutor, and the three of them get along fairly well.

When they were leaving, the fourth girl also invited Yuxi to play in the Qiu Mansion out of the Lantern Festival: "The eighteenth day of the first lunar month is my birthday, cousin Xi, can you come?"

Yuxi politely refused: "Sorry, cousin, I will study with my husband after the Lantern Festival, and I don't have time to come out again."

The fourth girl felt a little regretful.

On the way back, Han Jianye rode on a horse and said by the window: "The four cousins ​​have sincerely invited you to her birthday party, so you can take a vacation with your husband when the time comes!"

Yuxi said helplessly: "Sir, the lecture is very fast, if I delay for a day, I won't be able to keep up." I don't know where the second brother can see that their relationship is getting better.

Han Jianming couldn't help but shook his head. A smart person can tell at a glance that Yuxi is not willing to have a close relationship with these two little girls from the Qiu family, and he doesn't know if his younger brother has eyes! However, after this incident, Han Jianming became more and more satisfied with Yuxi. Although he is young, he behaves in a proper way, as expected of Mr. Song's teaching.

The carriage stopped suddenly halfway, Yuxi thought something was wrong, when she opened the curtain, she saw Han Jianming talking to two teenagers.

The tall young man in the head is taller, half a head taller than her second brother, wearing a brocade gown of blue after rain, with a brocade ribbon around his waist, and the jade pendant of Liuyun Baifu hanging from the side, wearing a A black fur billowing cloak. His skin is wheat-colored, he is very robust, and he speaks with a particularly loud voice. But listening to him speak, one can tell that he has a hearty temperament.

The other boy was extremely handsome, with a strong bookish air, fair skin, wearing a bright red robe, azurite silk trousers, and powder-soled official boots. Yu Xi looked at the young man, feeling like he had seen him somewhere.

Yuxi thought about it, the two tall boys seemed to be children of military generals, and the handsome boys seemed to be the sons of a scholarly family with rich background. Strange, how could such two people come together?

Yu Xi was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't expect that someone had already walked in front of her.

The tall boy cheerfully handed Yuxi a red envelope. Seeing that Yuxi would not accept it, he smiled at Han Jianming next to him and said, "My cousin won't accept my red envelope, what should I do?"

Yuxi is not surprised by the title of this young man. The Duke's Mansion has been in existence for more than two hundred years, and has relatives with many people in the capital. In fact, many of them are related relatives. It's just that the two in front of me should be relatives who have turned several corners.

When Han Jianming saw that Yuxi didn't pick up, he still looked puzzled, and explained: "Yuxi, this is my aunt's nephew." It means a relative, just give you a red envelope.

Yuxi murmured in her heart that she didn't know whose family this cousin belonged to, but this occasion was definitely not the time to ask questions. Yuxi immediately took the red envelope with both hands, and found it was quite heavy, the smile on her face became real: "Thank you, cousin."

The tall boy thought Yu Xi was very interesting, so he took the red envelope from the handsome boy and handed it to Yu Xi, teasing Yu Xi, and said: "Cousin, come on, call again."

Yuxi's head was full of black lines, and she immediately turned her head to ignore this person. I don't know whose family's unlucky child it is, who molested a little girl at such a young age,

The tall boy laughed loudly when he saw this: "Cousin Jianming, cousin is so interesting."

Yuxi really wanted to call this person crazy, but she was a lady from a famous family, so she didn't swear. Yuxi just put down the car curtain bitterly.

The handsome young man disagreed, and couldn't help calling out: "Cousin, this is on the street." He turned around and apologized to Han Jianming.

Han Jianming smiled and said, "I'm fine, but my sister is angry." Yuxi was still young, and he also knew that the other party was joking, so he didn't take it to heart.

But Han Jianye said with a big mouth: "Don't worry, my sister won't be so stingy. Yunqing, let's see if you have time, let's learn from each other." He has made great progress in martial arts recently, and even Master Yang praised him , urgently need to show a hand.

Yun Qing immediately agreed: "You are always welcome."

Seeing that it was almost time, the handsome young man hurriedly said, "Cousin, we should go, if we delay any longer, grandfather will scold you."

When Yuxi heard this name, Yunqing's limbs became stiff. After a while, Yuxi recovered from the near-shock, pressed her chest, and said to herself: "I hope I heard it wrong, or I have the same name." After finishing speaking, she couldn't help but hit her again. A shudder, but I really hope it's not the one she thought of.
