Luo nine needles

Chapter 96

With Mengchan by his side, it is indeed a lot more relaxed.

The female relatives who came to the banquet were either housewives or young daughters-in-law, and then brought the younger generations of the family.

It's rare for a young girl like Qixing to go to a banquet alone, and it attracts a lot of attention, but when she knows that the maid beside her is from the great aunt of the Zhai family, it can be deduced from this that the young girl is related to the great aunt, so she doesn't mind. Ask no more.

Qixing and Qingzhi are leisurely, having tea with Mengchan.

"Some are made at home, and some are made to order by restaurants outside." Mengchan introduced, "They are all the flavors of the capital."

Having said that, he lowered his voice to Aokiji again.

"Actually, I have forgotten what the taste of the capital city is. Now I am more used to the flavor of Xucheng."

Qingzhi followed her with a low laugh: "Me too, I'm still a bit uncomfortable, our lady—"

She turned her head and saw that the snacks in Qi Xing's hand had already been eaten.

Oh, Miss is used to eating everything and loves eating everything.

"Don't eat so much, there will be a banquet later." Meng Chan said with a smile, and then pointed outside, "Let's go to the garden to have a look, the second lady's flower garden is over there, and the third master invited a theater troupe."

Qingzhi hurriedly nodded: "Okay."

The women here are all doing the housework together, the young girls are talking and laughing if they are familiar, and getting to know each other if they are not familiar.

No one came to get acquainted with Qixing, most of them crossed their eyes and smiled politely. Without the introduction of elders or peers, boudoir girls would not casually make friends.

And Aunt Zhai's maidservant is not qualified to be a referrer.

Qixing didn't go forward to chat with her, and she didn't feel left out. If she stood here for a while, her identity would definitely be found out, and those who needed it would naturally come to her, and those who didn't need her naturally didn't need it, didn't need it It's useless to chat and make friends.

Hearing that there was a troupe watching, he immediately went to the garden with Mengchan.

The small stage in the garden is divided into male and female guests to listen to the opera separately, but whether they are outside or they can see each other, there are more people and more lively.

Qixing and Qingzhi followed Mengchan and stood beside a group of maidservants.

"This is Miss Qixing from Xu Cheng." Meng Chan introduced to everyone.

The maidservants greeted her enthusiastically, handed melons and fruits to her, and introduced, "There will be somersaults in a while, so it looks good."

Qingzhi and Qixing ate and drank together without hesitation, laughing and applauding as they watched the stage.

The girls' laughter is always particularly noticeable.

A group of young men looked over from time to time.

Lu Yizhi also looked over with a burst of crisp laughter, his expression paused slightly, he didn't look back, but leaned forward to look at him, and someone next to him patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't look at it." The young man said in a low voice, "The noble ladies are all in the room, and they won't come here to watch the excitement."

He put his shoulder on Lu Yizhi's shoulder, looked this way, and passed on his experience.

"Especially those standing here in the back row are all handmaidens or shabby young ladies."

He raised his eyebrows and smiled again.

"Of course, you can just look at it, just look at it."

Of course, if you want to get married, you still need to find a woman with a better status.

Lu Yizhi said with a smile: "I'm just homesick. When the elders in the family celebrate their birthdays, the sisters and maids are also so lively."

You're pretending to be a gentleman, even if you are a gentleman, who doesn't like to see beauties?The young man raised his eyebrows to say something, and someone came over.

"Master Lu, Miss Xiahou is looking for you." The man said, pointing to the side.

Miss Xiahou, this sentence caused everyone here to turn their heads to follow, and sure enough, they saw a graceful woman standing beside the rockery in the garden, and there was a maidservant with the same attitude looking over here.

There was a buzzing in Lu Yizhi's ears, which overwhelmed the chatter and laughter of the women over there. The men were much more noisy than the women.

"Miss Xiahou?"

"It turned out to be Miss Xiahou."

"Look, it's Miss Xiahou."

"Which one? Mr. Xiahou's daughter, the most talented woman in the capital?"

Lu Yizhi hurried away, leaving the noise behind.

The young man who put his shoulders on his shoulders looked blank, with his hands still in the air, watching Lu Yizhi approaching that Miss Xiahou, the two whispered something, and then walked away side by side. In the early spring garden, the willow leaves are tender and green, The grass is green, and the backs of young men and women walk in it like a painting
"So it's not pretending to be a gentleman, I really didn't see the beauty." He murmured, and slapped his hanging hand hard.

With a beauty like Miss Xiahou by her side, the courtyard is full of vulgar fans, so naturally they don't look at it!

Passing through a courtyard gate, the noise of people is much quieter, only the drums and gongs on the stage are left.

Miss Xiahou looked back and asked, "What were you talking about just now? It's so lively."

Lu Yizhi smiled and said, "It's said that Zhai's house is so lively, it reminds me of home too."

Miss Xia Hou smiled and said: "You have been out for a long time, go back and have a look at some time, and reading can't delay human relations."

"Yes, I know." Lu Yizhi said, "I have already told the teacher that after this class is over, I will go home to visit relatives."

Miss Xia Hou nodded and did not speak any more, she and the maid took a few steps forward.

Lu Yizhi looked back behind him, he was not lying, the bustle just now did remind him of home, because he saw a familiar face unexpectedly.

Ah Qi.

The scene was the same as at home.

The same is true for Ah Qi, although she is called Miss, she always stands among the maidservants, secretly looking at him and smiling at him.

Is it wrong?

Although there are no two people who are the same in the world, there are also people who look alike.

Too bad I didn't take another look.
However, he hasn't been home for a long time, and the sisters at home have almost forgotten what he looks like. What does Ah Qi look like?

"Yizhi." Miss Xia Hou called out, seeing that Lu Yizhi was far behind, she stopped and waited for him.

Lu Yizhi hurriedly followed up.

Miss Xiahou led Lu Yizhi into the hall, and the beautiful young men and women immediately attracted countless eyes. The housewives watched calmly, while the young girls half-covered.

Mrs. Xiahou greeted with a smile.

"Come here, Yizhi, and meet Mrs. Zhai," she said.

Lu Yi stepped forward to salute Mrs. Zhai.

Mrs. Zhai was leaning on her granddaughter, when she saw this young man, she immediately sat up straight.

"This is Mr. Xiahou's new disciple?" She looked carefully and said yes repeatedly, "Okay, he looks much better than Mr. Xiahou when he was young."

This made the room burst into laughter.

The granddaughter pushed her and said, "Grandmother, the third son Lu was not accepted as a disciple because of his good looks, but because of his good knowledge, everyone in Xizhou knows it."

Mrs. Zhai smiled and said, "Yes, yes, the third son is the pride of your Xizhou, but it will also be the pride of our capital in the future."

Lu Yizhi saluted and thanked him.

"Old madam." Miss Xiahou said, taking out a small box, "Father and mother gave you a birthday present, and I want to give one too. This is the incense I made myself."

Hearing this, discussions immediately rang out in the room.

"Miss Xiahou is a master incense maker."

"I heard that the queen also used Miss Xiahou's perfume."

Old Madam Zhai was even happier, and quickly stretched out her hand: "Come and let me smell it, my old man has a weak sense of taste, and I just need a good fragrance."

Hearing the compliments from all around, Lu Yizhi smiled slightly, and the exquisite craftsmanship would naturally be displayed in front of everyone.

If it is only placed in the birthday gift, and it is put away and stored in the warehouse, and will be checked later, only the Zhai family will know that it is a good fragrance, and others will not know, which will wrong Miss Xiahou's talent.

So he took the incense out of it and handed it to Miss Xiahou to explain this.

This is worthy of Miss Xiahou's reputation.

Miss Xiahou also looked back at Lu Yizhi.

"I can make this fragrance, thanks to Yizhi." She said, "He helped me find the ancient fragrance of the Han Dynasty."

The incense of the Han Dynasty is so precious. There was a low exclamation in the room, and the sight of Lu Yizhi was even more admiring.

This boy is not only very knowledgeable, but also so rich
Mrs. Zhai's smile became stronger: "Okay, old lady, I am really blessed."

She reached out to take the box and was about to open it when there was noise outside, as if someone was shouting and running around.

Everyone in the room was startled.

what happened?
"The old lady is not well." A servant woman stumbled in, "Du Chasi is here—"

Duchasi? !

Why did Duchasi come to the door?

Going to rob the house——

Mrs. Zhai's heartbeat stopped at this moment, her hands froze, and the box she just received fell to the ground with a clatter.
