Then, the people at the table were still eating as before, saying this, but Zhong Qing seemed a bit careless.
After dinner, the eldest lady said we should go for a walk in the garden.
The young marshal asked first, but Yi Jian didn't say anything, didn't refuse, and didn't agree.
Everyone knows that the young commander inherited asthma from his mother and has never been able to get close to pollen.
Pollen irritation can cause disease.
But the eldest lady naturally asked, as a sign of respect.
However, the young marshal stood up.
Seeing such a scene, the eldest lady got up and walked side by side with the young marshal towards the garden.
The second and fourth aunts, as well as Zhongqing and the other two young ladies from the Yi family, all walked behind.
There happened to be a gardener there watering and trimming flowers. When he saw several owners of the Yi family approaching, he hurriedly bent down and saluted.
The eldest lady looked at the garden full of flowers and couldn't help but smile: "Young Marshal, you better not stay here for too long. This pollen is not very good for asthma."
Yi Jian nodded without saying a word.
"But it's good to come here occasionally to see the flowers and take a walk. I always look at it from a distance. I really feel wronged by the young commander." The eldest lady then added.
The gardener who was kneeling there waited for the young marshal and the eldest lady to leave before he got up and happened to see Zhong Qing.
In a sea of flowers, a woman walked out wearing a goose-yellow cheongsam and holding a white kitten. She looked like the person in the painting.
He was stunned for a moment and was attracted by such beauty. He was so stupid that he forgot to stand up and forget to breathe.
The eldest lady didn't recognize the names of these flowers, so she asked the gardener behind her: "Are these brought from Yangzhou? What kind of flowers are they?"
The gardener just looked at Zhongqing in a daze. When the eldest lady asked him something, he didn't say anything.
Zhong Qing has been thinking about how to escape He Anyuan. She has no idea that at this time, she has been stared at so carelessly. She stands there, motionless, seeming to look at flowers, but also seems to be in a daze.
The fourth concubine was jealous of Zhong Qing's beauty. She couldn't help but push Zhong Qing and waved her handkerchief as if to entertain the objective. She was so... coquettish!
"Miss Zhong is beautiful. Look at this gardener who is so stupid. He even forgot to reply to the eldest lady's words."
Zhong Qing quickly came back to her senses. When she saw someone staring at her like this, she blushed and turned her head hurriedly.
