Chapter 226 Tanabata (Part [-])

Before telling Miss Xing and the others to see her, Song Qingyue saw her second brother standing among the crowd in the yard at the corner of the stairs!
Although the second brother seemed to be tanned a lot and thinner, she still recognized him at a glance.

"Second brother!" She yelled in surprise, for a moment she forgot what restraint was, and flew into Song Chenxu's arms like an ice-blue butterfly.

"Third Sister!" Song Chenxu was frightened by his younger sister's enthusiasm. He hadn't seen her until a year later, and he was a little excited. Although he really wanted to hug her tightly, the public could only hug her gently. , she let go, held her arm through the sleeve, and looked her up and down, Song Chenxu felt relieved.

"Sister-in-law said you are doing well, but brother, I can only feel at ease when I see you in person." Song Chenxu said with emotion.

"Then don't worry now?" Song Qingyue tilted her head and smiled at him, her cheeks were plump and rosy, and her black eyes were bright, making people feel happy just looking at him.

Song Chenxu nodded, gently squeezed her cheek and said with a smile: "I've grown taller and gained some weight, good, very good!"

"Song Tanhua." Li Zhao's voice suddenly came from behind the two of them. He cupped his hands towards Song Chenxu, grabbed Song Qingyue's arm, and pulled her towards him without a trace.

Song Chenxu bowed respectfully to Li Zhao and said, "His Royal Highness, I am polite."

"Aren't you very busy? Why come here when you have time?" Li Zhao asked.

Song Chenxu was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "My father specially asked for leave for the subordinate, saying that he wanted me to come and see each other's ladies!"

Before Li Zhao could make a sound, Song Qingyue subconsciously shook off Li Zhao's hand, and couldn't wait to take a step forward to hold the second brother's arm, and said, "You have to ask me about this, come, come, sister, I will take you to know each other." know."

Turning to Li Zhao again, he said, "Your Highness, you should go to find Fourth Young Master Ning first, I'm going to find my second sister-in-law."

Li Zhao held her hand and stopped in mid-air, she had already dragged his second brother away quickly, making Li Zhao feel depressed for a while.

Turning around, he saw Eunuch Ji still giggling, Li Zhao angrily shook off his fan, and fanned himself with a cool breeze, "Funny?"

"The servant dare not."

"Look, look!" Li Zhao slammed his fan shut again, pointed at the back of Song Qingyue's head and said, "Usually my husband and elder brother call each other very affectionately, but when her second elder brother comes, she becomes His Highness! Comparing with her second elder brother , what is this son?"

Mr. Ji said: "That's not the same. At the beginning, the second brother was desperate to fulfill his sister's wish. Isn't the relationship different...?"

When this matter was brought up, Li Zhao looked at Mr. Ji as if he wanted to kill someone, and Mr. Qin broke out in a cold sweat behind him, thinking that Mr. Ji was more courageous than Mr. Lin, and he dared to say anything!
However, Li Zhao just stared at him and gave up, without reprimanding him.

On the other side, Song Qingyue held her second brother's arm and walked slowly in the shade. The two were beautiful, and walking together attracted a lot of attention.

Song Qingyue was delighted in her heart, and whispered: "Brother, brother! You see a lot of ladies secretly watching you! By the way, have you met the eldest girl of Xing Zhuangyuan's family? Let me introduce you to each other. Hey, where is she?"

"My younger sister looks better than before." He interrupted his younger sister's words with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Didn't I let my sister-in-law take the lead? There is nothing to worry about."

Song Chenxu lowered his eyes and lowered his head to look at his younger sister's expression carefully. Song Qingyue's heart was a little creeped by the second brother's stare, she turned her face away guiltily, and put her hands behind her ears.

Song Chenxu sighed lightly and shook his head, and said slowly: "Sister-in-law's words are a little too good, I can't believe it, not to mention there are such and such rumors. Put yourself in your shoes, if I were you, I would report good news and not bad news, so I want to confirm it with my own eyes."

Song Qingyue was very moved, pursed her lips, and asked, "What kind of rumors?"

Song Chenxu frowned, and there was some dissatisfaction in his tone, and he said: "The dancer brought back from the northwest, the granddaughter of the prince's nanny, and the nine girls of the Xu family... I counted his backyard, plus you already have ten Alone, and there is a side concubine like Miss Ning, how can a brother trust what a sister-in-law says?"

Song Qingyue let out a chuckle: "As expected of the son of the Shangshu family of the household department, the second brother is really good at counting."

"Yue'er," Song Chenxu said very seriously, "If there is something unhappy in your heart, even if you don't want to worry your parents, at least let me, the second brother, know."

Song Qingyue hummed first, then nodded vigorously, and replied earnestly: "The prince is still interested in me at present. Although Miss Ning Er is his cousin, I don't seem to like her much when I look at him. As for the others , all of them haven’t been favored yet, that Northwest dancer is just a cover, so don’t worry too much, Second Brother.”

"Pretend?" Song Chenxu frowned.

Song Qingyue looked away guiltily: "It's a long story, so don't ask about the specific second brother. His Highness...is not a vague person." She sneered, "Probably just like our father."

What kind of person is my father?

Clear-headed and ambitious, but also cold-hearted.

Song Chenxu had no choice but to smile wryly, instead of bothering with the helpless dancer, he asked about the daughter of Duke Wei's family: "What did Xu Jiu say?"

Song Qingyue shook her head: "To be honest, I'm not very clear about the plans of the lord and His Highness. It seems that I may not be able to come in in the past one or two years, and His Majesty will not be able to explain it."

Hearing what she said, Song Chenxu sighed in his heart, and he also understood better what his sister wanted to escape from marriage that day.Newcomers entered the mansion continuously, and each of them was a wealthy daughter with good looks and family background. The concubines from poor families or slaves in ordinary families could not be compared at all.

How can such a marriage be comfortable?
But now he couldn't think of any way to help his sister, he clenched his fists, secretly hating himself for his incompetence.

"Second brother!" Song Qingyue smiled when she saw her brother's frowning, "I don't know how happy Yue'er is to have a family member who can put himself in my shoes and think about me!"

She turned around, looked at the courtyard where people were coming and going, and continued: "I'm serious. How many girls' sacrifices for the family are taken for granted. If the second brother thinks of me like this, I will I am very pleased."

Song Chenxu looked deeply at her fair and shiny face, stretched out his hand to help her straighten her shattered hair, and blamed himself: "It's a pity that the second brother is useless, not as good as those little generals of the Ning family. "

"Second brother, don't say that! There are not many elder brothers in Beijing who are more capable than second brother." Seeing that Song Chenxu was still frowning, she grabbed her brother's sleeve and shook it affectionately: "Why should second brother compare with those generals? A civil servant is the way of a civil servant."

Song Chenxu stroked his chin and said leisurely: "It's not impossible to join the army now, I'm still young."

One sentence made Song Qingyue laugh, she lightly punched her second elder brother, and said, "Just your body, don't mess around!"

Song Chenxu, who received his younger sister's disgusting look, immediately expressed his hurt. He glanced at his younger sister and asked bitterly, "Your younger sister likes strong men?"

"Of course! Who likes chopping chicken for nothing!" Song Qingyue said naturally.

"White...white chopped chicken..._(`)_"

Song Chenxu is a typical handsome boy whose height is used to change his appearance. Not only is he not tall, but he is also thin. Hearing his sister describe himself as a white chicken, Song Erlang once again felt the [-]-point crit in his heart, and immediately said that he would go home Find a master who practices martial arts, at least train your body to be stronger.

"Want to exercise? This is good!" Song Qingyue's eyes lit up, "If you want to build muscle, you have to eat more meat, and it's lean meat! If you can't, egg protein is also excellent. As for the martial arts master, I'm not as good as you. Ask His Highness for you, there are always a few good candidates among the royal guards."

As Song Qingyue said this, she thought in her heart, the aesthetics of today's skinny and handsome men who prefer boys and girls is really annoying!In the great dynasties in history, such as the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty, men are all beautiful because of their majesty.Gentleman men must not only be good at reading, but also have the six arts of a gentleman. A man must hang a sword on his waist. Only in the Wei, Jin, Northern and Southern Song dynasties, such aggrieved dynasties like that kind of feminine castration aesthetics.

Thinking of this, she glanced at her second brother again, why is it so dark lately?His eyes are still blue, and he looks listless. Is the yamen so busy?Looking at the precarious hairline of the second brother, do you even dislike him?

Of course, if you hate it, it's not an exaggeration to describe the popularity of the second brother in the circle of unmarried girls as top-notch. It doesn't take Song Qingyue to take the initiative to take the second brother to meet people, and many ladies will come forward to say hello.

The most active one was the eighth girl Xu Qiuxia, but after knowing that the elegant and handsome handsome boy next to Song Qingyue was the second brother of the Song family, she felt a little bit disappointed.The eldest daughter of the Song family has already married into the Duke of Wei's mansion, and among her peers, generally, she would not consider marrying a girl from the Duke of Wei's mansion into the Song family again.

However, Song Qingyue praised her in front of the second brother, and said: "Second brother, the eighth sister Xu is the elder sister and my biological sister, you have to help me take a look, please pay attention to any suitable friends among your friends. "

Song Chenxu was quite surprised. Originally, because of Xu Jiu's matter, he was quite wary of this Xu Ba. Hearing what his sister said, he immediately guessed the matter, and his attitude towards this Xu Ba girl became gentle. , asked with a smile: "What kind of man does Miss Xu Ba like?"

Xu Ba was a little shocked by Song Erlang's straightforwardness, who ever asked the little girl face to face!She twisted the handkerchief in her hand, her little face was flushed, she bit her lip and was too ashamed to speak.

Song Qingyue put her hips on her hips and glared at her brother: "Nonsense, of course you have to be good-looking, have a good character, have a good family background, have talent and learning, and have a future!"

Xu Ba tugged on Song Qingyue's sleeves, and said embarrassedly: "It's...not so many requirements, just, just...the most important thing is good character."

Song Chenxu laughed, and complimented: "Ms. Xu Ba doesn't have to be so shy. Wei Guogong's daughter must be one in a hundred men to be worthy of a girl."

At this time, Xing Yanran and Lu Wenyan also came forward to say hello.

Song Qingyue stood on tiptoe and looked around for a while, then asked, "Where's Miss Yuan?"

Xing Yanran and Lu Wenyan covered their mouths and snickered, and said in a low voice, "She watched Yan Shiwu play chess!"

Song Qingyue also asked in a low voice: "Is there a show?"

Xing Yanran nodded: "It looks like there is something going on."

Song Qingyue immediately clasped her hands together and muttered: "Amitabha, making a marriage is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"

It made everyone laugh.

"By the way, this is my second brother, and this is the eighth girl from Duke Wei's mansion." Song Qingyue introduced each other at the right time, "Second brother, eighth sister Xu, this is the eldest girl of Xing Zhuangyuan's family, this is the former The sixth girl of Mr. Lu's family, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry."

Xing Yanran took a quick glance at Song Chenxu, a red cloud appeared on her cheeks, but Lu Wenyan looked at Song Jia Erlang with scrutiny and curiosity, but not shyness.

"Second Young Master Song doesn't seem to have participated in a chess match?" Lu Wenyan said.

Song Chenxu nodded, and said very modestly: "There are too many things in the yamen, so it's a pity that I can't come."

Xing Yanran smiled and said, "Second Young Master Song is so busy at such a young age, others cannot envy him."

Lu Wenyan's mind was full of playing chess, and she was eager to try it immediately, and invited, "Why don't you try the next game?"

Song Chenxu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and said modestly and politely: "I am not good at chess, I am grateful to Miss Lu for not disliking me, and I am willing to accompany you."

Now there is no shortage of places to play chess in this garden. Several people found a gazebo in the garden, and Song Qingyue enthusiastically arranged for tea and snacks. After a while, a group of young girls gathered to watch the game.
