Chapter 157: Qi Wu comes to visit
Today is the day when the future uncle of the Wen family comes to visit.
Wen Qian even took a long time to wait at home. He was obviously worried. Wen Feng talked to him but didn't respond much.
The door said: "Master Qi Wu has arrived!"
Brother Feng rushed out to greet him.
I saw that man, with a maroon horse under his crotch, and wearing a black cloak embroidered with gold thread.
Dismounting from the horse at the door, clean and neat, with a sense of coolness.
Brother Feng's face was filled with envy and he stepped forward to salute.
Qi Wu was accompanied by two followers, one of whom was Mu Bo, and there were two cars behind him.
Mu Bo handed over the gift list, and the Wen family’s housekeeper nodded and accepted it.
The two of them entered the house together.
Although they had met once, Wen Qian and Qi Wu did not speak in front of the emperor. Looking at him coming in now, he is really a little embarrassed.
“Qi Yang, I’ve met Uncle Wen Shi!”
"Master Qi." Wen Qian looked at the person in front of him, still doubting in his heart, will this be my son-in-law? "Oh, this is my second brother, Wen Yu's second uncle."
“Second Uncle Wen. Qi Yang and Second Uncle Wen have met before.”
Wen Feng was quite happy when he heard this, "Yes! I just didn't have time to say more. Sit down quickly. We are going to be a family soon, so don't be polite!"
It was hot in the room, so Qi Wu took off his cloak and his entourage took it over.
He turned around and sat down. His upper body was straight and his hands were placed on his knees, giving him a military air.
Wen Qian sighed secretly: I have never seen such a young person in my life!
“Have you ever taken office because the emperor arranged for you?!” Wen Qian asked for a topic.
“Have been there.”
“Do you have to check in every day?”
“I will definitely be there for the ten-day imperial gathering. On weekdays, it’s not bad. It’s the Chinese New Year, so there aren’t many things to do.”
"Oh. I heard that you have been studying at the Qin Family Academy for many years. Aren't you going to take the merit test?"
"The emperor has already arranged the matter, so I won't take the exam for now. Maybe I will try again in the future."
"…Then you study literature. Where you are going now, I heard that you need to be able to do some martial arts."
“During the years when I was studying at the Qin family, Master Wu was always with me!”
This is both civil and military!
“I’ve been studying at the Qin Family Academy for so many years. It’s a pity not to take the merit test. I don’t know how far you have learned. How about I make my debut..."
"Brother! What are you doing!? Mr. Qi Wu comes to visit for the first time. What question do you have?"
Wen Qian actually had nothing to say, so Wen Feng stopped him and glared at him.
Wen Feng asked: "Qi Yang, every winter, my friends and I go to Zanquan Villa to stay for a few days. Does the Qi family have a hot spring resort near the capital?"
“There is one. But I am not at home all year round, so I have never been there.”
“Oh, what do you do in the capital?”
“Actually, I have only recently lived in the capital for a long time. These days, some friends have invited me to play ball, listen to music in Houhai, and so on.”
“If you have any fun in the future, call me my second uncle!”
"become."
Wen Qian glared at Wen Feng again, "You are an elder, how can you behave like this when you hang out with younger people?"
“Let’s go to the back and meet the old lady!”
A group of men entered the backyard.
。
The back hall is neatly tidied and decorated with flowers...
Old Mrs. Wen had dressed up early in the morning and sat here waiting.
No matter what she thought about Wen Yu, she admired Mr. Qi Wu first-rately. Not to mention the wonderful opportunities that have come about because of him.
The Yuan family and the Wu family have already begun the handover of the kitchen. Two people were in a corner, talking.
Several girls also arrived.
Wen Yu refers to the way a woman in a boudoir would dress to entertain guests at home, with clothes and jewelry that are exquisite but a little casual...
And Wen Huan, today is wearing a pink peony shirt and skirt with a white background, which is fresh and delicate, as if she has put on a spring dress.
Wen Jiao rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Second sister, this is the new spring dress, right? The color is so light! Among us sisters, you are the most eye-catching. Isn't it, eldest sister?"
She hinted that Wen Huan wanted to steal Wen Yu's limelight.
Wen Yu glanced at Wen Huan and nodded calmly: "Third sister is right!"
Wen Wan is a bit weird and knows that it is useless to dress up. Moreover, she has been trying to please Wen Yu recently, so she cannot offend her. So it also looks like a daughter in a boudoir. Not standout, not shabby either. Wen Su rolled her eyes secretly: This Wen Huan is really out of character. The eldest sister's fiancé is here, why are you trying to steal the limelight like this! ? Can you still **** people away? The third sister was right. When I glanced over, I saw her first!
Wen Huan was not afraid, and smiled: "I wanted to wear it when I went to the palace a few days ago. I was worried that it was too early! But when I went to take a look, many people were wearing it. Third sister, didn't you see it too? "
"Of course I saw it, but it was in the palace! At home..." She didn't finish her sentence.
Mother Song came in nervously: "Come, come! Old lady, Mr. Qi Wu is here!"
"Stop talking! Everyone stand still!" Old Mrs. Wen ordered them.
The door curtain was raised, and Brother Feng came in first: "Grandma, uncle and father, and Mr. Qi Wu are here!" This silly boy grinned widely and looked very happy.
Wen Qian came in first, and then his figure flickered.
Qi Wu also came in...
Everyone’s eyes lit up again!
Why is "and"?
Because Qi Wu also wore a white gown!
The background color of Wen Huan’s skirt is exactly the same!
It looks like two people dressed like this on purpose!
While others had not done anything, Wen Huanxuan's face turned red and everyone panicked. I was excited, happy, and felt like I was being slapped in the face by Wen Yu. This breath came out so happily...
Then she looked at Qi Wu with good eyes.
Qi Wu’s face is no longer swollen or blue, but a little purple...
But Mr. Pianpian Yu has a large piece, but it is not affected!
“Old Mrs. Wen!” Qi Wu bowed. Then he bowed slightly to Mrs. Yuan and other women. His eyes were straight, and he didn't see Wen Huan who was dressed the same as him.
When he saw Wen Yu standing next to Mrs. Wen, he looked at her seriously, and then nodded lightly.
Wen Yu looked at Qi Wu's face and the clothes that were almost the same as Wen Huan's, and was a little speechless...
What did he do?
"Master Qi Wu! Please sit down quickly!" Mrs. Wen greeted, and then introduced her two daughters-in-law.
Yuan Shi looked at Qi Wu carefully and felt a turmoil in his heart.
When she first learned that Wen Yu was engaged to him, she thought: Maybe he was a fat and ugly man who took a fancy to Wen Yu's appearance.
When he caused a sensation in the palace, although he felt uneasy, he thought: If he is so good, why do you like Wen Yu?
Now I know that the name is really not a lie!
When the old lady introduced her, she forced a smile and said nothing.
Mother Song took the gift list from outside and handed it to Mrs. Wen.
It seems that the gifts outside have been counted.
Old Mrs. Wen looked at them symbolically, the first few... oh! Ginseng and deer antlers, in pairs.
"Your mother is too petty!" Old Mrs. Wen was not an ignorant person, but she was also a little flattered by the Qi family's attitude.
Several men sat down.
The old lady then asked: "Did Mr. Qi Wu's face get injured while playing ball?"
“No. I bumped into it before when I was performing martial arts at home.”
“Have you seen the doctor?”
“It’s a minor injury, it’ll be fine in a few days.”
“It’s not convenient for our two families to move around this year. We’ve also prepared New Year’s gifts at home. Let’s go back and ask my eldest grandson, Brother Feng, to send them over!” I thought to myself, I need to add more gifts! We can’t let the Qi family look down on the Wen family!
"Thank you! Old Mrs. Wen, my mother asked me to ask: On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Cui family, the grandfather's house of the younger generation, would like to invite the old lady to take Miss Wen as a guest. Then on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I would also like to invite Miss Wen to the Prince's Mansion. I’m a guest. I don’t know, it’s not convenient for you.”
Qi Wu is very down-to-earth and talks about business matters when he comes up.
The grandson made a fuss several times and insisted on seeing Wen Yu.
The old lady smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth and didn't hear the problem...
When he went to the East Palace, he only said, "Please invite Miss Wen!" Because that's what the grandson said!
“This is the Wen family’s honor! The third and fifth day of the Lunar New Year…” The old lady still pretended to be reserved…
“Mother said that the Wen family had just arrived in Beijing and there must have been various arrangements. The old lady didn’t have to rush to reply immediately. If the family couldn’t make arrangements, mother said, she would just come to pick her up in person..."
The former "she" refers to Mrs. Qi, and the latter "she" refers to Wen Yu.
This tone... conveys intimacy.
But Wen Yu thought in her heart: I wrongly blamed him before. This person really can't turn his head.
As Wen Qianqian and Mrs. Wen looked at each other, Mrs. Qi really didn’t regard Wen Yu as an outsider!
Have you been a little stranger to us?
It doesn't matter whether we go or not, is it enough for Wen Yu to go? !
When Mrs. Qi told her son, she certainly didn’t expect that he would tell her son the exact story...
This is a bit embarrassing.
