Chapter 223 Secret Love
After hearing this question, Qiao Guxin glanced at Shen Qiuhe suspiciously, "If Mr. Shen is in a hurry, you can leave now."
Is it necessary to ask yourself?
Ahem, Shen Qiuhe suddenly choked on his own saliva, and then looked away, "Then I'll sort out the remaining booklets first."
The implication was that after sorting things out, he left.
After hearing what Shen Qiuhe said, Qiao Guxin didn't think much, nodded, and went to do his own thing.
As for Shen Qiuhe, it can only be said as a matter of convenience.
Shen Qiuhe looked at Qiao Guxin's back and shook his head helplessly.
Shen Qiuhe kept sorting things out until Gu came back. As a considerate Shen Qiuhe, when he said goodbye, he naturally told Qiao that he wanted to stay here for a while and that he would go back to attend to official duties first.
In the past, Mrs. Gu might have agreed, but now that Shen Qiuhe had put down his official duties to accompany Qiao Guxin, and thought about everything first, she definitely couldn't let Qiao Guxin act recklessly, so she asked Qiao Guxin, He also returned home with Shen Qiuhe.
Qiao Guxin was somewhat reluctant, but seeing the tired look on Mrs. Gu's face, she had no choice but to give up, pack her things and go back first.
Since Qiao Guxin also wanted to leave, Shen Qiuhe naturally wanted to come with him.
Mrs. Gu didn't have time to pick it up, so she sent it out now.
Marquis Ningshun was angry, so he went straight to lie down and rest after coming back from the cemetery, but in the end he didn't succeed, and no one cared for him.
After Shen Qiuhe sent Qiao Guxin back, he originally wanted to send him into the courtyard, but as soon as his foot stepped on the steps, he stopped abruptly.
Then he raised his head and looked at Qiao Guxin, "Miss Qiao is busy first. I'm going to Dali Temple."
With no outsiders around, Shen Qiuhe returned to his previous indifference and alienation.
Feeling satisfied with this feeling, Qiao Guxin turned around and blessed Shen Qiuhe slightly, "Master Shen, please go ahead."
After waiting for others to leave, Qiao Guxin immediately entered the yard.
According to the rules, the filial piety on the head must be taken off when entering other people's courtyards.
Qiao Guxin is getting married. Even if the yard is her dowry, she should follow the rules and follow the etiquette of her husband's family.
But because Qiao Guxin and Shen Qiuhe could no longer be considered husband and wife, he didn't pay attention and walked in with Xiao on his head.
Shen Qiuhe walked not far away, and then looked back. This scene fell into Shen Qiuhe's eyes, and his brows furrowed unconsciously.
Wang Si could also see it clearly, and suddenly his mind was caught by the door. He smiled casually without thinking, "Master, do you think the young lady is divorced or widowed now?"
Shen Qiuhe turned his head slowly with a gloomy face.
Catching Shen Qiuhe's gaze, Wang Si trembled in his heart and took a step back involuntarily.
However, Shen Qiuhe did not scold him as usual, but asked lightly, "Governor Ye, how many days until you arrive in the capital?"
"Two, two days." Wang Si replied in a low voice.
Shen Qiuhe narrowed his eyes and said, "Watch closely!"
Qiao Guxin was also tired these past two days. The first thing she did when she got back was to go to bed. She slept until she woke up and then started to change into mourning clothes.
I definitely don’t need the white ones anymore, just dress plainly from now on.
After all, she is just a grandmother, so there is no need to show filial piety all the time.
When Feng Zhaoping left Beijing, Qiao Guxin would definitely send her as a gift.
According to the rules, May is a poisonous month and everything is unfavorable, so we set out on the day before the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Qiao Guxin's carriage went out and passed by Mrs. Yan's yard. She couldn't help but take a look outside.
This uninhabited yard was quickly becoming deserted, perhaps because it had rained in the past two days and grass had grown in front of the door.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh, but they couldn't say anything else.
Everyone went directly to the city gate to see off Feng Zhaoping. Qiao Guxin arrived early, and when her carriage stopped, the Feng family had not arrived yet.
The second person to arrive was Qiao Wenqing.
"Has father returned to Zhuangzi?" The siblings always chatted when they were together.
Qiao Wenqing snorted, "Of course I can't wait."
Even after so long, Marquis Ning Shun's reaction still hurt Qiao Wenqing's heart.
Even the death of the old lady couldn't restore Marquis Ning Shun's heart. So is the actor really that good?
Qiao Guxin sighed, "It doesn't matter, our family is in good order, no matter how others can't get in."
Qiao Wenqing nodded, "That's the reason. Sister, don't worry, my mother and I will be fine."
However, when talking about the family, Qiao Wenqing couldn't help but sigh, "It's true that Wen Ding, Master has already sent me news. He has too many things on his mind, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to make progress."
When studying, you should be focused on nothing else. There are only a few scholars who are able to stand out.
If it is half-hearted, there is no hope.
"I think he should be beaten." Qiao Guxin replied angrily. Qiao Wenbing was always a thoughtful kid, but now he is getting older and smoother, and he doesn't look like a scholar at all.
Qiao Wenqing was so talkative that Qiao Gu was thinking of waiting for the summer vacation, so he sent Qiao Wenbing to him and disciplined him harshly.
Qiao Wenqing shook his head, "Third Yi Niang has discounted the sticks."
Originally, after finishing his chores at home, Qiao Wenbing was supposed to go to Taipei University, but who knew that everyone sent him away, and then he went around and stayed in an inn.
If the person who purchased it hadn't discovered it, no one would have known about it.
The third aunt was so angry that she immediately hit Qiao Wenbing, so hard that it made Qiao Wenqing feel distressed. But when no one was waiting, Qiao Wenbing still had that playful smile on her face, which was really a headache.
"Wenqing, Miss Qiao." The third person to arrive was Chu Hanyin. He was still the same as before. Before anyone could see him, his voice came first.
When he arrived, Chu Han glanced around and said, "I rode here in a hurry, but I didn't want my cousin to arrive yet." He had been busy all morning.
Chu Hanyin patted the things on the horse. Chu's mother felt sorry for Feng Zhaoping to go out alone, but she had prepared a lot of things. If Chu Hanyin hadn't run so fast, he might have pulled a cavalry team over.
Qiao Wenqing smiled helplessly, "If Auntie hears it, Brother Chu will probably suffer some physical pain."
Chu Han waved his hand nonchalantly, "I am thick-skinned and not afraid of being beaten."
After saying that, his eyes suddenly lit up and he circled around Qiao Wenqing several times, then he said twice, "Are these clothes of yours newly made?"
Perhaps because he had seen Xiang so many times, he didn't have much impression of the girl, but he had unique insights into the new clothes that Chu's mother often asked him to wear when he saw Xiang.
Let's put it this way, he can easily tell at a glance which clothes are new and which ones have been through water for a while or two.
Qiao Wenqing's face immediately became a little uncomfortable, "I don't know that, it was all taken by the people below."
Qiao Guxin knew what Qiao Wenqing was thinking. His feelings when he was young were probably to leave an unforgettable and beautiful image in front of the other party. "Master Chu has learned a lot of skills at the Ministry of War."
Seeing that Qiao Guxin came forward, Chu Han smiled and scratched his hair, "Miss Qiao, please don't make fun of me."
Then he looked at the pedestrians on the road and said, "Speaking of my skills, I do know a lot about food."
As he said that, he started talking about what big yellow rice was like and what millet was like. He kept talking, and he thought he was a banker. But the Ministry of War, the most important thing is these things that have been decentralized. It is normal for Chu Hanyin to know that.
.
Just as they were talking, Qiao Guxin felt more and more something was wrong the more she listened, "Why do you mean buckwheat and oatmeal are the same thing? Isn't this nonsense?"
Qiao Wenqing also heard this, and then patted Chu Hanyin on the shoulder, "I find that now Brother Chu tells lies without blushing or breathing."
Chu Hanyin immediately shook his head, "That's wrong. I'm still a little bit red in the face."
Then he pointed at his face and said, "Did you see it?"
Qiao Wenqing took a step back in disgust, "Brother Chu, you are obviously hot."
Look at the sweat dripping on your body, you still have the nerve to say blushing?
While they were making a fuss, they finally saw the belated carriage of the Feng family. "If you don't come over, we will have to go to the Feng family to find you."
Feng Zhaoan's face really turned red, "I'm sorry, everyone."
Feng Zhaoping jumped off the carriage and said, "Brother, don't pay attention to my cousin, he just knows how to scare people."
Being exposed by Feng Zhaoping, Chu Hanyin did not feel embarrassed, and then smiled and turned around to remind Feng Zhaoan to help Qiao Wenzhi out of the carriage, so that Feng Zhaoan would not be embarrassed.
Chu Hanyin looked at Feng Zhaoping, who was almost a head shorter than him. He smiled and his face turned serious. He reached out and patted Feng Zhaoping on the shoulder, "Don't let yourself be wronged."
Feng Zhaoping, who was aroused by Chu Han's seriousness, blushed, then wiped the corners of her eyes with a smile, "Don't talk like that, it's like parting between life and death." His eyes immediately turned to Qiao Wenqing, who was standing farthest away, "
I have the number one scholar to rely on, who dares to wrong me?"
Chu Hanyin then flicked Feng Zhaoping's forehead and said, "You know which of these brothers is the most promising!"
"This is natural!" Feng Zhaoping raised her head proudly. At this point, her tears stopped flowing.
Separation is melancholy, and I have been thinking about it for a while. When it comes time to say goodbye, I just say a few words and look at the back of the departed person reluctantly.
Feng Zhaoan clenched his fists in distress. Seeing this, Qiao Wenzhi stretched out her hand to hold Feng Zhaoan in front of her, and then clasped her fingers tightly in her wide sleeves.
Qiao Wenqing could only hold himself, letting his nails sink deeply into his palms, and silently endure the painful feeling that made his heart tremble.
"My mother said that the meal has been ordered at Jude Building, and we should go there at this time." Seeing that everyone was in a low mood, Chu Hanyin said immediately.
This is what Chu's mother said before leaving the house.
Young people, who usually have a sad face all day long, rarely get together to cook and have a meal together in the Chu family.
Secondly, Chu Hanyin was able to return to Beijing smoothly because of everyone's concerted help. He should have expressed his gratitude long ago, but he never found the opportunity.
Now that Chu's mother has spoken, she can't help but offend her elders.
It was noon when everyone arrived at Defu Tower, and it was bustling with people coming and going. Fortunately, Chu's mother had already reserved a seat.
Pushing the door open and entering the cubicle, I heard bursts of laughter.
Is there anyone else in the house?
Chu Hanyin frowned unconsciously, but still took a few steps forward.
