Limelight

After Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jinhua figured out what was going on, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Although there must have been some oversights, for example, Yao did not arrange for the girls to stop at the intersection in advance, so that the girls would bump into the foreign men when they came back, or when he temporarily invited these teenagers to come to the female guests' table,

I didn’t say hello to the girls, reminding them to stay away for a while, but in a place with so many people, the girls’ elders were not far away, and they were all members of the same family, not strangers.

, bumping into each other like this is not a big deal. Among the young girls present, if they come from a scholarly family, they may not be used to it, but the daughters of military commanders should be extremely calm. They are not their parents.

Who among the weak girls in purdah would make a fuss just because they saw a foreign man?

Even Yu Xinlan, a girl from a well-known scholarly family, only showed a slight expression of surprise before calming down. After meeting her brothers, she went with them to watch Qin Jian's calligraphy. The Xu family was originally a little reserved.

The sisters also relaxed after seeing their brothers. After reading a poem by their brother Xu Zheng for a while, they praised a few words, and then took Xu Rong to meet their mother and aunt. Even the high-ranking officials outside the country

Lu Yueniang could greet her brothers very calmly and then return to her mother.

It seemed that Pei Yin was the only one who was shocked.

Qin Jinhua specially apologized to her. Although it was not a big deal, after all, it was because his family had not made good arrangements that something went wrong, which shocked Pei Yin, so he should apologize.

Pei Yin listened absently, feeling really upset. In fact, seeing the reactions of other girls around her, she also realized that her words and deeds were a bit exaggerated. Normally, she would have confused this episode.

, but today is different. Today, the eldest son of Marquis Yunyang, Cai Shizi, is also present, and he seems to have seen her frightened look just now. What will he think of her? Will he think she is not stable enough? All ladies pay attention to dignity and stability.

, elegant and generous, but just now she acted like a village girl who had never seen the world. She was so frightened when she met a man that she even forgot her manners. No wonder Prince Cai didn't even glance at him from the corner of his eye. He must have disliked her.

!

But how could she be blamed for this? She had just told Tang Su that she couldn't come to the stage without saying anything. She wanted to rush back to the banquet to meet her mother, staying far away from the other ladies so as not to give Tang Su a chance to talk nonsense.

, that’s fine. Who would have thought that as soon as she turned to the promenade, she met a strange man, how could she not be frightened?! She just thought that she was being tricked and barged into the male guests’ table. Although later

Seeing that her brother was also present and finding out the truth, she felt a little more at ease, but the grievance in her heart was even greater. Everyone pretended to be calm, but she was the only one who made a fool of herself, and even asked Crown Prince Cai to watch.

Come on, what is this called?!

It’s all the fault of the Qin family!

Pei Yin originally had no dissatisfaction with the Qin family. After all, Qin Jinhua, whom she interacted with the most, was a best friend with mediocre talents, gentleness, and easy to talk to. But now, first, Qin Hanzhen overpowered her in calligraphy and painting, and then there was this scene at the spring banquet.

She was worried because she and Qin Jinhua were far away from the crowd, and their voices could not be heard by the ladies. She scolded rudely: "What happened to your Chengenhou Mansion?"

What? How are all this arranged?! There are differences between men and women, and there are differences between inside and outside. This is the most basic rule for people who know etiquette, right? Without saying anything in advance, you just asked the outside man to enter the inner courtyard, and even took us girls

What does it look like to bring your son here?! Even if your family is a relative and your ancestors were military commanders and don’t pay much attention to rules and etiquette, you shouldn’t treat guests so lightly. You don’t care, but we are from a wealthy family and we still want to be shameless.

Woolen cloth!"

Qin Jinhua was a little confused. She had also been pampered by her family since she was a child. When had she ever been treated like this? Besides, she really didn't think it was a big deal today. The elders were all watching, and

There are so many people here. Isn't it just a big banquet where boys and girls meet each other? There are also many people who are brothers, cousins, in-laws, distant relatives, or people who have met each other several times since childhood.

, and there weren’t many strangers. Pei Yin rarely attended such occasions in the past. Her grandfather was still a patient, so there were some restrictions on the family going out for banquets. But no matter how few times it was, it didn’t mean there were none. In the past, Pei Yin could

It’s not such a big fuss. What’s more, no one else said anything?

Pei Yin was angry and didn't think what she said was too much, but there were always people who couldn't hear it. Qin Hanzhen was standing not far away from them. When he saw Qin Jinhua's eyes were red, he rushed over to replace his cousin.

Rescue. She actually felt that Pei Yin was going too far, making a big deal out of trivial matters, and was not very ladylike.

Perhaps because he was often annoyed by the other party, Qin Hanzhen's words were also a bit rude: "Sister Pei, please forgive me, although our Qin family has passed down the title for several generations, it is really not as good as the family of the Duke of Guo.

, you are the most observant of rules and etiquette, and you don’t dare to treat these famous disciples as disciples. It would be humiliating for them to look at them. You are the most observant of rules. If you don’t want to see your outsider, why don’t I have someone prepare a room?

Elegant room, would you like to sit down and rest alone? Wait until all the foreign men have left before asking you to come out. After all, our Qin family is not that shameless, and we dare not sweep away so many wives just for your own rules.

Grandma’s face drives other people’s nephews out. But you value the difference between men and women the most, so I can’t let you be wronged, right?”

Pei Yin suddenly blushed, and she stared at Qin Hanzhen, unable to believe that the other party did not spare her any face: "What do you mean by this?!"

Qin Han said with a real smile: "What's wrong with my words? Isn't this exactly what you asked for?" She also deliberately glanced in the direction of Prince Cai, "If Sister Pei thinks that my hands and feet are too slow,

It just so happens that Crown Prince Cai is right there. He should be the eldest among these famous disciples, right? Why don't I go and tell him that Sister Pei can't bear to stay in the same garden with her foreign husband and ask him to take care of her?

Let the others exit first, and then come in after Sister Pei has eaten and drank?"

Pei Yin felt as if a hammer was hitting her head hard. She was stunned, with a face full of horror: "You...you..." How did you know...

Qin Hanzhen sneered. Pei Yin's thoughts were clearly seen on the road just now. Who else could he hide it from? Cai Yuanzhen and everyone else just pretended not to know, and only Tang Su and Zhang, who were usually careless, could

Shu, you can speak out.

Pei Yin shrank instantly. She stared at Qin Hanzhen for a long time, turned and walked away without saying a word, and never complained about the Qin family again.

Qin Jinhua stood next to Qin Hanzhen sadly and said, "I was really shocked just now. Sister Pei has never spoken to me like this before. I couldn't believe those words came out of her mouth just now!"

Qin Hanzhen snorted coldly: "Second sister, you have such a good temper that people think you are a weakling. You can be pinched by her no matter what. No one else said anything, she was the only one who refused to give up.

"Didn't it just scare her? If she had followed the army honestly, she wouldn't have made such an mistake." If she bumped into Qin Jian with everyone else, Pei Yin would not be so rude because she was leaving.

The other ladies in front of her will behave calmly enough.

Qin Jinhua was still a little uneasy: "Actually, our family's arrangements were not thorough enough... The same goes for my mother, who invited my brother and the others to come to Xiangxue Hall and tell us at least!"

Qin Hanzhen said: "How does Ernie know where we are? She didn't see us just now."

Qin Jinhua couldn't help but cough when she thought of what she had just seen outside the bamboo forest. After a pause, she couldn't hold back: "Third sister, why did you make trouble with Crown Prince Cai just now?"

Qin Hanzhen pursed his lips and glanced at her with a smile: "Of course it's because Prince Cai is the most useful and effective. Look, as soon as I sacrificed Prince Cai, didn't Miss Pei shut up immediately?"

Qin Jinhua gave her an angry look and couldn't help but snicker. Qin Hanzhen caught a glimpse of Zhao Mo walking towards him from the corner of his eye, and gently pushed Qin Jinhua: "Go and take a look at the handwriting of eldest brother. I think he wrote today

It has to be extraordinarily good.”

Qin Jinhua suddenly became energetic and hurriedly went to his brother's side.

Many people had gathered around Qin Jian. Yu Xinlan and her sister had been watching there for a long time. Yu Xinlan had even looked at Zhao Mo's paintings. However, Zhao Mo's paintings were not as good as Qin Hanzhen's, so she looked at them.

After a few glances, she turned back to Qin Jian. Qin Jian's handwriting was pretty good, and the cursive font she wrote today happened to be what Yu Xinlan was currently practicing. She felt that her wrist strength was insufficient and she could not write very well.

Well, Qin Jian wrote much better than her, so she couldn't help but pay more attention to it. When her brother praised Qin Jian, she also echoed a few words. Because of their brother and sister's praise, more and more people gathered.

Qin Jian's side. It's hard to believe that Qin Jian was not affected by the outside world. He still ran the pen in his hand steadily and completed the entire running script in one go.

Zhao Mo walked up to Qin Hanzhen and greeted him politely, as if he were a polite cousin. Qin Hanzhen felt funny in his heart, but he did enough tricks with him and returned the greeting in a polite manner.

Also said hello to him.

However, Zhao Mo only acted for half of the show. After finishing all the etiquette, he spoke directly: "What did you say about Crown Prince Cai just now?"

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "Cousin Zhao heard that? It's nothing. I just used his name to bully people."

Although Zhao Mo didn't know what was going on, he saw that Pei Yin was there just now, so he smiled and said: "If you can make your cousin feel like bullying, then he definitely deserves it." As long as he doesn't have a crush on Crown Prince Cai.

That's fine. Prince Suning said that he is a person who protects his shortcomings.

Qin Hanzhen gave him an angry look, and looked thoughtfully in the direction of Qin Jian: "My cousin seems to be making a big splash today. I must be very happy, right?"

Zhao Mo said: "It's time for him to reach the age of marriage. If he gets the limelight this time, it will be a good thing for ladies and grandmothers from high-ranking families to take notice of him as their son-in-law." Qin Jian is the eldest brother, so he won't tell him.

Dear, how can the marriage of his sister be settled? There is order between elder and younger.

Qin Hanzhen actually knew what Yao was thinking and smiled: "It doesn't matter whether she is from a wealthy family or not. I hope she is a good girl with a kind temperament and good conduct who can live in harmony with her cousin." Don't just do it just for the sake of family status.

I have fallen in love with people like Pei Yin.

Qin Hanzhen was thinking this in his heart.

Little did she know that at this moment, Pei Yin looked at her mother in disbelief: "What did you say?!"

Grandma Pei frowned and looked at her daughter: "I told you to calm down! I asked you to get along well with the girls from the Qin family, why did you start scolding them just now? Today's incident is nothing, and the other girls are not.

A person as rude as you. Originally, the matter would have passed after a few words of laughter, but you refused to let me go! What do the ladies and grandmothers of the Qin family think of you now? I still hope to marry you into

The Marquis of Chengen's Mansion has come, and now you have ruined it all!"
