In Song Yanzhao's study, there are many new gadgets that he bought from the temple fair.

There are exquisite and gorgeous lanterns, fan-sized oilcloth flower umbrellas, finely woven birdcages, sets of carved Arhats, and glazed lotus table-style sugar boxes.

There are also some strange-shaped inkstones and pens.

There are also various kinds of snacks sold in the market. They don’t taste very good, and their styles are weird and weird. They can’t be put on the table and even wealthy people don’t know how to make them. But they are really pleasing to the eye.

Several girls had never seen it before, and they were all stunned.

Brother Xuan even hugged the glazed lotus sugar box and refused to let go.

Song Yanzhao smiled and opened the candy box for him. It was full of clean powder plum slice snowflake candy. He twisted one and stuffed it into his mouth. He turned around and twisted another one and stuffed it into the mouth of Gu Jinzhi beside him.

Gu Jin subconsciously took a step back.

Song Yanzhao's hand failed and he was stunned for a moment, then stuffed it into his mouth, narrowed his eyes and smiled to cover up his embarrassment.

These actions happened very quickly, and Hu Jie and others were attracted by Song Yanzhao's novel things, so no one noticed.

"You don't read serious books all day, and you go out to read these books every day!" Hu Jie was surprised and scolded Song Yanzhao with a serious face.

Song Yanzhao rolled his eyes at her and wrinkled his nose at her.

"Mind your own business!" Song Yanzhao turned his head and cursed quietly.

Gu Jinzhi was beside him and pretended not to hear.

"I like this umbrella..." The small oilcloth flower umbrella is naturally not used to protect the rain, but a plaything. The craftsman painted beautiful pictures on it, and the beauties looked lazy and enchanting, lifelike.

Although the painting style was a little too bold, it was really good-looking. Hu Jie took a liking to it at first glance, held it in her hand and said to Song Yanzhao.

"No!" Song Yanzhao snatched it away, "Is this something you girls can play with? Your mother knows she took it from me, and I won't be able to do anything better if I turn around..."

When Hu Jie thought about it, she was right.

Her mother was very strict with her and she would definitely be scolded if she took these gaudy things back.

Knowing clearly that what Song Yanzhao said was true, Hu Jie was still angry at his rejection and grabbed him when he was not prepared: "I'll tell the eldest lady! Look what you have done in the study!"

She turned around and walked out.

Song Yanzhao was really frightened by her and hurriedly chased her.

The two of them ran out.

Gu Jinzhi and others all laughed.

When the two of them came back, Hu Jie's face was red and Song Yanzhao's face was annoyed, which made people curious about what they were doing outside.

There was a fuss, and Song Yanzhao's good things were sorted into different categories and each person gave some away, and then it calmed down.

Gu Jinzhi got an ink cartridge.

Song Yanzhao still didn't say what he wanted to give Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi remembered that a few months ago, he always said that he had something to do with him.

During the meal, Song Yanzhao insisted on sitting at the girls' table, but Mrs. Song glared at him, so he reluctantly went to another table.

After finishing the meal, we dispersed quickly because there was no show.

Gu Yanzhen invited Mrs. Song's nephews to visit the Gu family tomorrow, and took Gu Chenzhi and others back to Mayuan Lane.

After returning, Song Pan'er naturally asked Mrs. Song how she was treating the guests and how the food was.

Gu Chenzhi said it was very good, and also said: "You're too polite! It shouldn't be such a hassle."

"It's not worth it, it's just a rule." Song Pan'er said with a smile, "I have to invite the young masters of the Qin family to sit at my house tomorrow, and I need you to accompany me then."

Gu Chenzhi naturally said yes.

After Gu Yanzhen and others went to the outer courtyard, Song Pan'er asked Gu Jinzhi how the banquet was going today.

"It's very good." Gu Jinzhi said the same thing, "My aunt also invited two girls from the Song family, Hu Jie and the Song family, to accompany me. They are both gentle and easy to get along with."

Song Paner nodded.

"Mom, there is another interesting thing..." Gu Jinzhi said again.

Song Paner quickly asked what it was.

"Hu Jie, she seems to have some friendship with her second cousin..." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile.

Song Pan'er was heartbroken after hearing this, and looked at Gu Jinzhi's face.

Gu Jinzhi's eyes were filled with smiles, pure joy, not sour and jealous, so Song Pan'er felt relieved.

"That's useless!" Song Pan'er said with a smile, "The Hu family is from the capital, and they will go back as soon as their term of office is over. Your two cousins ​​are both studying. According to the temper of the eldest aunt, it is impossible to be a scholar before she is selected.

Can say dear.

Brother Subaru may have said that Brother Zhao may not be able to pass the exam next year. I look at him and he looks like he has not grown up, so I have never studied seriously."

Gu Jinzhi laughed when he said this, and told him again about the messy stuff that Song Yanzhao found in his study.

"Let me tell you!" Song Pan'er said, "Brother Zhao loves to play and is extremely naughty!"

Gu Jinzhi smiled again, echoing his mother's conclusion.

Song Pan'er is now extremely disappointed with her two sisters-in-law.

She often revealed that she wanted to marry her daughter back to the Song family, but her elder sister-in-law pretended not to understand, and her second sister-in-law told Gu Jinzhi about Jiang Ning's natal nephew.

The meaning is very clear, they are not very willing to have Gu Jinzhi as their daughter-in-law.

Gu Jinzhi is not short of arms and legs, so Song Paner is still worried that her daughter will not get married?

The Song family didn't care, so she gave up the idea. Anyway, none of those nephews were top-notch talents. Song Pan'er took a fancy to them and chose the general among the short ones. She just wanted to think about her mother's family, so that her daughter would not have to suffer any injustice when she married.

I lost that idea and started to pick on my nephews.

Gu Jinzhi just laughed with him.

The next day, the Gu family invited the Qin family's children back.

Song Pan'er also met Qin Zhi with her own eyes.

Qin Zhi is of medium height, with fair skin, bottomless black pupils, and is silent, giving people a sense of calmness and seriousness.

When you talk to him, he responds respectfully.

Song Pan'er looked around and saw that Qin Zhi was neither frivolous nor lazy, nor was he stupid. He was actually better than several nephews from her mother's family. Her children were older and it was time to get married, so they didn't study.

To rely on.

But Song Pan'er thought too much.

She suddenly regretted that she shouldn't have refused so simply.

"...Second sister-in-law, don't you know if she returned to her parents' home?" Song Pan'er muttered to Song's mother, "If I ask again, will second sister-in-law take Qiao?"

Song's mother laughed and said, "How could it be possible? My second uncle and his wife are eager to do so."

Song Pan'er thought about it carefully and felt that it was not good. It seemed that she was rushing to marry off her daughter and had lowered Gu Jinzhi's status.

I just had to endure the pain and forget it.

"Oh, the good news will come later!" Song Pan'er comforted herself in this way.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.

At noon, Song Pan'er personally cooked birthday noodles for Gu Jinzhi, and everyone in the Song family also came to congratulate her.

Because Hu Jie's birthday was also today, Song Pan'er asked someone to send longevity noodles to the Hu family.

Mrs. Hu sent two eight-cent silver coins to the gift-giver, and sent them back with Hu Jie's longevity noodles.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Gu Chenzhi said he was going back.

He has been in Yanling Mansion for more than twenty days and has not mentioned his return trip. One is for medical treatment, and the other is that it is approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival and the festival of reunion, so his uncle and aunt will naturally stay with him.

"I checked the almanac, and it turns out that twentieth is a good day." Song Pan'er said, "I know you miss the capital, so it's not a waste of time to keep you here. Twenty is a good time to travel, and your third uncle will help you take care of your luggage and boats.
