Chapter 19: The Yuan Family Flower Fair
"Let me tell you, my third brother is the one who can write poetry, and the tea he makes is delicious!" In the Qingfeng Pavilion next to Bibo Lake, Yuan Yan danced with Lin Wan, and when she mentioned her third brother, she
Some couldn't stop, and the more they talked, the more excited they became. "The third brother is good-looking and gentle in speech. But he is also scary when he loses his temper. I dare not talk back to him! His yard is also very clean, with no decorations.
I just love chrysanthemums! The whole yard is full of fine varieties, and many of them in the garden today were moved from Third Brother’s house! Hey, you’ll know it when you meet him, if not..." At this point,
Yuan Yan's face changed, her voice lowered, and she sighed in a low tone, "They say they are jealous of talented people. Hey... Third brother is just too good..."
Lin Wan had been listening silently to Yuan Yan's words, but now she could no longer remain silent. She reached out and patted Yuan Yan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "We haven't even met anyone yet, and yet you praise your third brother so much that he has everything in the world.
It makes people full of curiosity. If there are a group of little girls here, your third brother will be in trouble! He might not be able to go back!"
Yuan Yan smiled and spat at Lin Wan, then pulled Lin Zhi to talk in detail.
Not long after, the mother-in-law led Yuan Zihuan and Wang Shuo into the pavilion. Yuan Yan dragged Lin Wan and ran towards Yuan Zihuan. She introduced with a bright smile: "This is my third brother! - Hey, the fifth brother of the Wang family is here too! Just look at it.
"Look, I thought it was the seventh brother of the Wang family!" At this point, he looked at Lin Wan again, paused, patted his head and suddenly realized, and said with a smile, "Look at me! I forgot! Sister Wan and
Brother Wang is a cousin!"
After saying that, he stepped aside, pushed Lin Wan, smiled at Yuan Zihuan and said, "This is the sixth sister of the Lin family!" Then he pointed at Lin Zhi, "This is the third sister of the Lin family!"
Yuan Zihuan was dressed in a moon-white gown. Except for the jade pendant on the silk ribbon around his waist, there were no pendants on his body. Standing on the steps, he had a long body and a gentle temperament. He exuded a calm and refined look in his gentleness, and his eyes were deep, which made him
No one dares to underestimate him.
Wang Shuo was holding a jade fan in his hand. The fan was white and moist, and it was made of fine mutton-fat white jade. He was wearing a sky-blue gown that made his whole person look picturesque. When he came in, he had a gentle smile on his face, which was modest and yet gentle.
Lively.
The two of them bowed their heads in greeting, and Lin Wan and Lin Zhi hurriedly stepped aside and returned the gift. Yuan Yan excitedly greeted the two of them to sit down, and at the same time told the woman and girl waiting in the pavilion: "Go and get the tea set.
Come!"
Lin Wan took the opportunity to look at the two of them as soon as they came in. His eyes turned around Yuan Zihuan first. Yuan Zihuan was stunned for a moment and looked towards Lin Wan. Lin Wan smiled generously in return. The two looked at each other and Lin Wan
Then he looked away and smiled at Wang Shuo: "I have always heard grandma say how my uncle and grandpa's fifth brother is doing, and today I can finally meet him!"
Wang Shuo's eyes flashed slightly, his heart beat uncontrollably faster for a moment, the smile on his face deepened a little, his eyes fell on Lin Wan's smiling eyes, and he replied: "What did my aunt say about me? I followed you earlier
My father was in office and only returned to the capital a few years ago. He never had a chance to visit my aunt, so I ask my cousin for your forgiveness."
"We'll see you now!" Yuan Yan looked at the interest in Wang Shuo's eyes, her heart thumped, and she quickly interrupted the two of them. Her eyes lingered on Wang Shuo for a moment, and she walked to Lin Wan in two steps.
Intentionally or unintentionally, he blocked Wang Shuo's gaze and said with a smile: "Usually when the students meet, you compliment me and I compliment you. Things that are clear in one sentence have to be said for a long time. The most annoying thing is this reminiscing about the past!
We can still talk together after being separated by 800 miles! I have to wait for tea today! I don’t want to listen to you chatting about the past! - Third brother, I have to bring out your good tea today!
"
Lin Wan and Wang Shuo both laughed. Lin Wan pulled Yuan Yan's sleeve, smiled and scolded Yuan Yan, and then turned to talk about other things. Yuan Zihuan looked at the three of them with gentle eyes, and did not say anything, quietly.
He listened quietly, and when he was occasionally pulled out by Yuan Yan, he responded with a smile.
Lin Zhi had a soft smile on her face and looked at Lin Wan and Yuan Yan with envy. She occasionally glanced at Wang Shuo and Yuan Zihuan from the corner of her eye. Her heart was pounding and her face was slightly red. She wanted to interrupt but was embarrassed to speak.
Yuan Yan also changed from her previous thoughtfulness and attentiveness, and excitedly only took Lin Wan and Yuan Zihuan to talk. Lin Zhi was silent for a long time, feeling slightly disappointed, feeling envious and sad at the same time.
A few people chatted for a while, and the little girls brought up the washed tea sets. Yuan Yan's mouth went dry as she spoke, and she finally stopped talking. She looked at Yuan Zihuan and said happily: "I want to treat you today."
Third Brother Lulu’s craftsmanship!—Where’s the tea you brought for Third Brother?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman came forward to apologize and said with a smile: "I have already asked someone to pick it up. Girl, wait a minute -"
Just as he was talking, a graceful figure walked out of the corridor opposite Qingfeng Pavilion. Yuan Yan's face darkened, and she frowned and looked at her mother-in-law: "Why is she here?"
"I think... the second lady needs to send her here if she has something to do." The mother-in-law said hesitantly.
Bihe was holding a teapot in her hand, wearing a light green skirt, wearing a pair of jade earrings, and a touch of rouge on her lips. She walked up with a graceful posture, smiled at the people and bowed her knees. Then her eyes flickered.
Looking at Yuan Zihuan Yingying, he reached out and handed over the tea can, and explained in a soft and delicate voice: "Madam asked me to come and see if there is anything wrong with everything. I just happened to be bringing tea to Third Master tomorrow. I
So I took it over to Third Master on the way."
Yuan Zihuan frowned slightly, but did not reach out to take it. He glanced at Bihe, his face darkened, and his voice was stern: "Put down the tea, you can go down."
Bihe was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with grievances. He focused on Yuan Zihuan and froze for a moment before slowly putting down the tea can. His eyes followed the tea can and fixed on Lin Wan, with disdain and ridicule on his face.
It flashed by, causing people to feel trance-like. After leaving the tea pot, he bit his lip and glanced at Yuan Zihuan, and then slowly retreated.
Wang Shuo looked at Bihe in surprise, then at Yuan Zihuan, then smiled mockingly, opened the fan and started playing with it.
Lin Wan watched Bi He gracefully leave the pavilion inexplicably. After thinking for a moment, she realized that Yuan Yan was unusually talkative today and sneered in her heart.
Yuan Yan suppressed her unhappiness and annoyance and hurriedly asked the little girl to prepare water to make tea. She tried her best to find a topic to attract Lin Wan to talk. However, Lin Wan smiled and looked away, turning to look at the water waves rising in the wind on Bibo Lake.
It was like seeing God.
There was no emotion or anger on Yuan Zihuan's face. He just glanced at Lin Wan and Wang Shuo subconsciously. With a slight expression on his face, he silently took the thing from the little girl's hand and started making tea.
Yuan Yan was the only one left in the yard chatting and laughing awkwardly. Lin Zhi was blushing and said a few words. Unfortunately, no one had any thoughts, so they talked less and less. In the end, they all just looked at Yuan Zihuan quietly.
Tea.
"I said I couldn't find anyone! It turns out that Xiaoyao came here!" As soon as the tea was brewed, Wang Qilang rushed out from behind the rockery, pointed at the people in the pavilion and shouted, "Hey, there is good tea to drink.
Don’t call me either!”
"It's time to catch up!" Yuan Yan quickly called Wang Qi to sit down.
Wang Qi picked up a piece of snack and ate it. While chewing, he said to Lin Wanqi: "Cousin from the Lin family is here too? I haven't seen you for a few days! Grandpa still talks about you every day! Ouch——"
Under the table, Wang Shuo kicked Wang Qi with a smile on his face, but glared at Wang Qi with a strong warning in his eyes.
Just as Wang Qi was about to call out, she raised her head and received a warning look from her brother. She quickly shut her mouth, snorted and concentrated on eating.
