Chapter 40 Flying cross ball

On this day, the Marquis of Xiangyang celebrated his birthday.

The daughters of the Houwei family of Fu'an came to Xingguofang early.

After getting off the carriage, the second mother of the Wei family saw the fifth mother of the Han family at the door.

The two are similar in age and were classmates in the same girls' school.

The second mother of the Wei family walked quickly and came to the fifth mother of the Han family.

Sister, why did you come so early?

Han Wuniang: Sister, it's not too late for you to come. I have long heard from my sister at home that the Xiangyang Marquis' Mansion is spacious and rich. Today, when I see it, it is indeed well-deserved.

Hey, look, that old girl from the Qin family is here. The one who just came out is her sister-in-law.

Her sister-in-law, I heard, is famous for being stingy.

Wei Erniang: Hahaha, I heard about it too, and I wanted to discuss marriage with our Wulang before.

If I can't even raise the dowry, who would want her? I think she'll be fine with a poor scholar or merchant.

Wei Erniang: Look at her clothes, they were in fashion three years ago.

All my first-class maids are better dressed than her.

She also had the nerve to come out and lose the face of our distinguished family.

Come on, let's go in.

The second girl of the Qin family stepped out of the carriage and looked at her sister-in-law who was ignoring her in front of her, with no change on her face.

The lady on the side glanced around and whispered:

Girl, the Xu family hasn't arrived yet.

Let's go in.

Miss Qin Er walked into the prosperous Xiangyang Marquis Mansion and saw all the luxuriously dressed female family members.

Walking to the garden of the Marquis of Xiangyang's Mansion, I asked the female envoy and the servants in the mansion for a cup of tea, and let my girl drink it slowly.

After a while, after taking the empty tea bowl, she wanted to get a new cup of tea.

At this time, a female envoy from the Xiangyang Hou Mansion came over.

She saw Miss Qin Er who was admiring the flowers with her back turned.

She saw that this man was dressed simply, and there were no hairpins in his bun.

Without thinking much he shouted

Sister, please help me lift this cage. Sister?

Miss Qin turned around, with some doubts on her face.

Maid Xiang walked over from the side.

Sister, please open your eyes, take a good look, and don't scream for no reason.

The female envoy from the Marquis of Xiangyang's Mansion also looked stunned. Looking at Miss Qin's behavior, she knew that she might have called her wrong.

She hurriedly covered her face, performed a squatting salute, and then said

My dear guest, please forgive me, please forgive me! I was so busy that I got dizzy.

After saying that, he lifted up the cage with force and left in a hurry.

Girl, let's go to a place farther away. I know the two girls Ping Mei and An Mei from the Xu Mansion. When they come, their Sanlang should be here too.

The master and the servant were walking in the garden.

From a distance, there were female relatives who looked over from time to time and then covered their mouths and said something.

Maid Xiang's face was already a little red, but Miss Qin's face remained calm and she had the time to look back.

There was a noble lady who was gossiping and the original owner saw it. She was a little embarrassed and stopped talking.

In this courtyard where she is dressed in gold and jade, Miss Qin is indeed more modest.

The group of female family members were playing games of throwing pots and balls, and there were also women playing shuttlecock, but they didn't have the time to look at the master and servant.

After staying for a while, Miss Qin was looking at the clouds in the sky in a daze, and pulled the sleeve of the female envoy.

Miss Qin looked over and saw five female family members, four large and one small, walking this way, followed by seven or eight female envoys and maids.

Further away, five guys of different heights were walking towards the men's courtyard, with their respective boys behind them.

The distance was quite far, and Miss Qin couldn't tell which one was the nephew of her old friend.

The visitors were Bai and Sun who came together, and the little girl was Gu Tingyi.

Gu Tingyu and Gu Tingye left together with the three brothers of the Xu family.

The Bai family and the Sun family didn't have many friends in the noble circles of Bianjing. After all, one was from a merchant family and the other was an adopted marquis.

Although the current Marquis of Xiangyang is also adopted, it is naturally different for a promising disciple to receive the Holy Favor.

Relying on the relationship between the Sun family's grandmother, the Xu Zaijing brothers and a group of brothers went to pay homage to the Marquis of Xiangyang as his nephews.

Xu Zaijing could tell that the Marquis of Xiangyang was no longer familiar with the collateral daughter from his hometown in Qingcheng.

It was the old steward next to him who explained in the ear of the Marquis.

The Marquis of Xiangyang nodded, his eyes gradually clearing up, and he clarified the relationship between Xu Zaijing and his family.

They are all good kids! Good kids from our Gu family.

Because Gu Tingyu and his brothers are theoretically closer to each other, they came in to pay homage before the Xu family children, and are now standing behind the old Marquis.

Next to the Marquis of Xiangyang was a little boy of three or four years old, standing presentably next to Gu Tingye.

That was Qi Heng, the son of Princess Pingning.

After the birthday greetings, the younger ones Gu Tingye, Xu Zaijing and other buddies all left the house.

Gu Tingyu, Xu Zaiduan and other older people stayed in the room, listening to the important ministers such as the Grand Prime Minister and the Marquis of Xiangyang talking about the affairs of their family and country.

Those who have similar treatment are those descendants of Qingliu aristocratic families who have been around for generations and can compare.

Gu Tingye and Xu Zaijing came to the courtyard. In the men's courtyard, in addition to throwing pots and beating pills, there were several open spaces where people were playing Cuju.

I was playing Cuju in front of me in the open space, and I heard shouting.

nice shot!

Show me your skills!

You can tell that the praise comes from the heart.

Behind Xu Zaijing, the young Qi Heng also walked out with them.

Behind him was a valet who was older than him.

Among the people playing Cuju, a man about the same age as Gu Tingye saw Qi Heng.

Looking at the people walking towards him, a cruel look flashed across his face.

He kicked the ball at his feet hard and flew towards Qi Heng's head.

This ball is made of cowhide, and the most it gets kicked is that its hair will be knocked out and its skin will be scratched.

But being hit suddenly like this, a child of Qi Heng's size would definitely be shocked.

Those who are weak may be frightened and fall ill.

Who knows what the consequences will be if one of the patients is not well cared for during the illness.

The ball was about to hit Qi Heng, and the boy's eyes were filled with smiles and the pleasure of revenge.

but.

'Snapped! ’

The ball was directly knocked away by one hand.

Qingyun, who was used to standing in front of Xu Zaijing's archery target, could see the arrows clearly.

Sometimes the arrows that were affected by the wind would fly low, and he could block them with his shield.

The ball flying at this speed was very slow for him.

Xu Zaijing and others turned around when they heard the sound.

Zhique behind them opened his eyes wide, obviously frightened by Qingyun's performance.

The young Qi Heng had not yet realized what happened.

Bu Weize, who was behind Qi Heng, hurriedly protected his son in front of him, and said to Qingyun with gratitude in his eyes.

Thank you for your help, brother. I will definitely report it to the princess. Thank you, brother.

After saying that, he looked at the people in Cuju with fear.

Qingyun saw his young master Xu Zaijing looking over and nodded politely to Buwei.

The boy who just brought the ball over was not yet in the city, and he shouted to Qingyun with a look of hatred on his face.

Hey, servant, bring me the ball.
