Aling hugged her arm tightly and shook her while feeling aggrieved, "I haven't witnessed such a big thing with my own eyes! I haven't seen what an engagement is like. It must be lively, right?"
Song Qiu burst out laughing and teased her: "Hurry up and find someone you like. When the time comes to get engaged, you will know it. It's better to experience it yourself!"
Lihua laughed so hard on the sidelines that she kept echoing, "Yes, yes, you are the only one missing now!"
Aling immediately let go of Song Qiu, no longer aggrieved, and shook his head, "I'm not in a hurry, I'd better not find him! I believe that if I don't like it, grandma won't force me to marry randomly.
.”
Seeing that A Ling was interrupted by one sentence, and she forgot her previous grievances, Lihua smiled and was about to mention that they were going to have a picnic again.
He met Song Qiu's gaze.
Lihua immediately made a sealing gesture.
Song Qiu was helpless, "You two just split me in half."
Instead of pursuing her about getting married, Al-Ling became active again, looked at Song Qiu, then at Lihua, grinned, and took Song Qiu's arm again, "I want the left side."
Lihua came up and hugged Song Qiu's other arm, "Then I want the right side."
Song Qiu:......
…
Song Qiu and Lihua both had their birthdays in August, and they both had the same haircut this year. They grew up together and had already discussed celebrating their fifteenth birthdays together.
To this end, Lihua even made two identical dresses with her own hands, only in different colors.
One day is the sixth day of the lunar month and the other is the ninth day of the lunar month. The two families gather together on the tenth day of the lunar month. The relatives from the Song family, the Yuan and Hu families, and the relatives from the Li family, the Li Shuiqin and Zhang Xiangye families, come together.
In the Song family mansion, the fifteenth birthdays were held for the two girls.
Li Yang takes five days off every month and plans to come back at this time, just in time to celebrate the birthdays of Song Qiu and Lihua, and also to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together.
He rode back on horseback on the night of the ninth day of the lunar month, non-stop all the way, and arrived early on the second day. He didn't sleep a wink all night, so Song Qiu arranged for him to go into the East Crossing Courtyard to let him sleep for a while.
I only slept for an hour and then got up.
At this moment, there was a lot of excitement inside Sanjin. They were all their own relatives and no one else, so they were all gathered in the small hall, talking and laughing.
Song Qiu and Lihua were dressing up in the embroidery building, one wearing a blue dress and the other a yellow dress.
Her hair was simply combed into a bun and she didn't wear any hair accessories.
As soon as I got dressed, Hongzao came in with a smile from outside and said, "Girl, my future uncle is here and wants to see the girl. Should the girl go out or will I invite my uncle in?"
Hong Zao was careless, but Lu Yan immediately glared at her, "Nonsense, this is a girl's boudoir, how can you invite your future uncle in? You haven't even gotten married yet, what are you talking about?"
Even after being glared at by Lu Yan, Hong Zao was not afraid. She stuck out her tongue and listened to Song Qiu's instructions with a smile.
When Song Qiu heard that Li Yang was coming, he still thought that this man had been traveling all night, so he got up after only a short time of sleep.
They had been engaged for more than a month, and they had just met each other in a hurry. She thought that Li Yang must have a lot to say to her.
After being properly dressed, Song Qiu got up and went outside.
Li Yang was standing in the hall, wearing a black robe with blue background. He was tall and majestic. He seemed to be getting calmer and calmer, and there was still a faint murderous aura about him.
But when he saw Song Qiu coming out, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled instantly. Warmth radiated from his whole body, and that stalwart figure made him feel extraordinarily safe.
"Aqiu."
Song Qiu couldn't help but laugh and walked towards Li Yang.
There was a rustling sound behind him. Song Qiu turned around and saw Lihua and Aling holding on to the door frame, secretly waiting to watch the excitement.
Seeing her turning back, the two of them laughed and quietly retracted their heads, still hiding behind the door.
Li Yang naturally saw it earlier. He took out two small boxes from his arms and said to the door: "Birthday gift, Lihua, come out and get it."
Hearing this, Lihua on the right immediately jumped out with a smile, took the box, and handed one of them to Song Qiu.
"That one belongs to Aling."
Lihua paused with her half-stretched hand.
Aling, who was on the left, came out with small steps, took the box from Lihua's hand, and said with a puzzled face, "Is it for me? I don't want it as a birthday gift?" She didn't celebrate her birthday until Dongyue.
"Give them together in advance so that you don't forget them next time." Li Yang only said.
"Oh." Aling nodded and grinned again, "Thank you."
Li Yang: It’s a convenient thing for his future wife and sister. When they get married, he won’t give it away and asks their husband-in-law to give it to them.
Lihua and Aling, two people who had received gifts, opened the boxes together and looked at them. The boxes were exactly the same, and the things inside were also the same. They were both gold and silver hairpins. They were quite satisfactory, not surprising in style, but not unusual.
ugly.
The two looked at each other, looked at Song Qiu, and laughed jokingly, "What birthday gift did you give to Sister Aqiu/Aqiu?"
Song Qiu was also curious. Li Yang quickly took out two boxes. She thought one of them was hers.
So, what about hers?
She looked at Li Yang.
Li Yang smiled, then took out a long box from his arms and handed it to Song Qiu, "Aqiu, this is yours."
The boxes that were obviously different, named Lihua and Aling, both clicked their tongues and stood next to Song Qiu, teasing her to open it quickly and see what it was.
Song Qiu glanced at Li Yang, who nodded with a smile, meaning it could be opened, "Let's see if you like it?"
Song Qiu then opened the box.
Inside is a wooden comb with two curved ends, like the shape of the moon, carved with layers of begonia flowers.
"Wow! What a beautiful comb!" This is Aling.
"Last year it was a hairpin, and this year it's a hairpin. I thought my brother was just a bigot and didn't know how to buy gifts. Alas! It varies from person to person. My sister picks it up, but my daughter-in-law only kisses it." This seems to be an accusation.
But Pear Blossom covered her mouth and couldn't stop laughing.
Send combed and knotted hair, and grow old together.
Song Qiu smiled and said, "I like it very much."
Li Yang smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
Aling and Lihua rubbed their arms in an exaggerated manner, and then retreated into the back room, leaving this space for the two of them to be alone.
But the inner room is not far from the outside. If you calm down and listen, you can still hear a few sentences. Song Qiu put away the box and said to Li Yang: "It's still early. Let's go for a walk in the garden?"
"Okay." Li Yang nodded, turned around and followed Song Qiu outside.
After nearly half a year of careful care, the green flower beans I planted are growing very well.
There are many rockeries, gravel paths, green vegetation and intoxicating fragrance of flowers.
There is a pavilion in the middle, with vines surrounding the corridor and surrounded by fiery red pomegranate flowers, which is as beautiful as a peach garden.
"Is it smooth to take office? Can you get used to staying in Qianhu House?" Song Qiu asked Li Yang about his situation in the past month or so.
Li Yang smiled and replied that everything was fine, and also asked Song Qiu about his recent worries.
Song Qiu talked about the happy things, and then talked about going out to the south after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Li Yang listened and wished he could go with Song Qiu, but he only had five days off a month. As a household with thousands of households, he couldn't leave for too long, so he had to ask Song Qiu to be more careful and take care of himself when he was out.
The two of them talked about the trivial matters of life, the fireworks of life, nothing spectacular, but just plain and simple.
