Ye Qingning seemed to be aware of Ye Qinglan's probing gaze, so he took the initiative to explain: "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time."
Ye Qinglan accepted this explanation without any objection and said with a smile: "Then let's not delay any longer and hurry up! Don't keep aunt and others waiting."
Seeing that she didn't doubt his words at all, Ye Qingning couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Little did he know that Ye Qinglan had already seen the subtle changes in her expression, and a series of guesses ran through her mind.
The one who can make the always proud Ye Qingning moved is naturally not Mrs. Zheng. However, it must be related to Mrs. Zheng...
Mrs. Zheng had already seen Ye Qingning and Ye Qinglan coming with her. She smiled and motioned for the two of them to get closer. That rare and kind smile made Ye Qinglan feel flattered.
Ye Qingning quickly glanced at Mrs. Zheng's side, but found nothing. The twinkling light in his eyes dimmed unconsciously.
Ye Qinglan followed Ye Qingning to salute Mrs. Zheng.
Mrs. Zheng didn't put on any airs, she was very kind and friendly. She looked at Ye Qingning with a smile and praised her a few times.
Zheng's custom is to say a few words of humility, but in fact, the pride in her eyes cannot be hidden from anyone.
Ye Qingning couldn't help but ask: "Isn't cousin Xiyu here?"
When Gu Xiyu was mentioned, Mrs. Zheng's smile suddenly showed a trace of bitterness, and she sighed: "She didn't want to come, so I brought her here. However, she refused to see anyone after getting off the carriage. I had no choice but to bring her here."
Let Xinian take her to the garden."
Ye Qingning's eyes suddenly lit up.
Ye Qinglan saw clearly from the side and thought secretly in her heart. Who is this person named Xinian?
Zheng said from the side: "Can Xinian take care of Xiyu by himself? Otherwise, let Ning'er go find the two of them and accompany Xiyu by the way!"
Ye Qingning had never been so grateful to his mother as at this moment, and looked at Mrs. Zheng expectantly.
Mrs. Zheng naturally would not refuse such a proposal, and responded with a smile: "That's fine, then Lao Ning'er will take care of it."
Ye Qingning suppressed the joy in her heart and left with a smile. But her brisk steps revealed her good mood at the moment.
Ye Qinglan was suddenly full of curiosity about this brother and sister who had never met before. This girl named Gu Xiyu was probably a troublesome little girl, otherwise she would not hide in such an occasion.
As for this Gu Xinian...
Needless to say? Just by looking at Ye Qingning's performance, you can guess that this is no ordinary boy.
"Sixth sister, where should we find them?"
Ye Qingning was in a very good mood, with a rare kind face: "Cousin Xiyu doesn't like crowded and lively places. She only likes to stay in secluded places. The two of us will go to the most secluded place in the house to look for it. I'm sure we can find it.
she."
Ye Qinglan glanced at Ye Qingning's pretty face that was about to shine, and said tentatively with a smile: "I haven't seen cousin Xinian for a long time, and I have long forgotten his temperament. Why don't Sixth Sister tell me something, so that I won't be treated badly?
I offended him unintentionally."
Speaking of Gu Xinian, Ye Qingning's tone became softer: "Don't worry, my cousin never loses his temper randomly."
She must not know that her expression is full of girlish longing and tenderness.
Ye Qinglan weighed it for a moment and decided not to mention her upcoming engagement with Zheng Junyan at this moment. She pretended to be casual and asked, "How old is he this year?"
Ye Qingning was very happy to answer such questions and said with a smile: "My cousin is twenty this year."
Twenty? This is not a young age. At this time, most men and women get married at an early age, and many people get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen. A twenty-year-old man may even have children.
But Ye Qingning never mentioned that there was such a person as his cousin-in-law...
"My cousin is already so old and hasn't gotten married yet?" Ye Qinglan asked tentatively.
Ye Qingning smiled lightly: "Well, he has always refused to get married. Although my aunt is anxious, she can't do anything about him."
Ye Qinglan smiled and joked: "Is it because no one wants to marry him?"
"Of course it's impossible!" Ye Qingning retorted without thinking: "My cousin is talented in literature and is the most famous handsome man in the capital. There are many girls who want to marry him. But my cousin doesn't like him."
Ye Qinglan became interested in Mr. Gu, whom she had never met before, and said with a smile: "That's strange. Why does he refuse to get married?"
Ye Qingning snorted softly: "It's not because of that past incident..." Suddenly he refused to talk anymore: "Forget it, let's not talk about this. In short, when we meet them later, you just need to talk less."
What I hate the most is this kind of person who talks in a secretive way. He keeps other people's appetites high but just doesn't say anything anymore.
Ye Qinglan responded casually, and spontaneously imagined the appearance of Mr. Gu in his mind. The most famous handsome man in the capital...could he be better-looking than Zheng Junyan?
Since time travel, she has not come into contact with many men, but all of them are outstanding.
Ye Chengli has a graceful demeanor, Ye Yuanzhou is handsome and elegant, and although Xue Yushu is a straw bag, he has a good body. Zheng Junyan, who I just met, is even more handsome.
What will this Gu Xinian look like?
I searched around the house, but couldn't find the two of them. Ye Qingning gradually couldn't hold himself back any longer, his brows furrowed slightly, and a trace of impatience and anxiety flashed in his eyes.
Where did my cousin take cousin Xiyu to?
Ye Qinglan glanced at Ye Qingning, smiled and reassured: "Anyway, the birthday party hasn't started yet, so let's look for it again. By the way, there is a lotus pond over there, why don't we go over and have a look. Maybe they are by the lotus pond!"
Ye Qingning was in a bad mood, and her tone was not good: "How could they be there? My cousin hates places with water."
What place do you hate most about water?
Ye Qinglan's occupational disease suddenly broke out again: "Why does she hate places with water so much?" Could it be that something happened that gave her a psychological shadow?
Ye Qingning replied angrily: "Why do you have so many problems? Okay, I'm here now, so just stop by the lotus pond and have a look."
After bypassing a pavilion, a lotus pond suddenly appeared in front of us.
It was spring, and the lotus pond was empty, with neither lotus leaves nor lotus flowers. However, the trees and flowers beside the lotus pond were very lush.
Ye Qingning took a casual glance and saw that there was no one at the lotus pond. The last trace of smile on his lips was gone: "I said they couldn't be here, but you have to come over. It's a waste of time..."
Before he finished speaking, a thin sob was heard coming from behind a weeping willow tree.
Accompanying this sob, there is also a very gentle and beautiful man's voice: "Yu'er, don't cry, if you don't like it here, let's leave now, okay?" e = "Shiquanshimei"]
