Li Qi turned around and saw a woman in her forties walking over with an appraising look. Her hair was tied up, and there were some dazzling silver hair among the three thousand black hair. She was wearing a green skirt, which looked very special.
She is simple and pretty, and she seems to have been a beauty when she was young.*
Mrs. Qin turned to look at the woman, looked at her for a moment, and then said in an uncertain tone: "Are you---are you Fourth Sister Ning?"
The woman was overjoyed when she heard this. She hurriedly came forward and said with great joy: "Sanniang, it's really you."
Mrs. Qin nodded excitedly and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing, Fourth Sister?"
"My health is not bad, but we haven't seen each other for a long time." Ning said and thought for a while, then said: "I haven't seen each other for almost twenty years, but you are still so beautiful, you haven't changed at all.
, I am getting old and my hair has turned white.”
Mrs. Qin looked at Fourth Sister Ning and felt something in her heart. All the past events came to her mind, and she said with a wry smile: "Fourth Sister, please don't make fun of me. Anyone who is immortal will suffer from old age, sickness and death." She reads Buddhist scriptures every day.
She still has this awareness.
"I don't dare to make fun of you. If Zheng Er hears this, he will have to make fun of you again."
At this point, she suddenly paused, patted her forehead and said, "By the way, I almost forgot that Zheng Er was married, but it's a pity---."
Mrs. Qin begged for mercy and said with a smile: "The past is over. I hope Fourth Sister will not mention it again."
"Okay, okay, fourth sister, just don't tell me."
Ning stopped repeatedly, but there was still a flash of regret in her eyes. Wang Yao and Zheng Yi were really talented and beautiful childhood sweethearts. Almost everyone believed that they must be a couple, including their parents. It's a pity that fate has played a role in people.
, now Qin Mo is dead. And Zheng Yi has also obtained the beautiful girl, and all the love, hatred and hatred have turned into clouds and drifted away with the wind.
Li Qi thought to himself after hearing this, it seems that Mrs. Qin and Zheng Er did have too many stories back then. All these old acquaintances would drag Zheng Er out as soon as they saw Mrs. Qin, but no one has ever done so.
When it comes to Qin Mo, these people all thought that Qin Mo was trying to steal love, so they all scorned Qin Mo.
Ning said again: "But there is something that I, as my sister, need to tell you carefully."
Mrs. Qin asked in astonishment: "What's the matter?"
Ning sighed: "Twenty years have passed. My sister's hair has turned white, and you have never visited her. I thought I would never see you again in this life. Sanniang, you are so heartless."
Mrs. Qin was stunned for a moment, with a look of guilt on her face, and said, "My little sister did something wrong. Please forgive me."
After she married into the Qin family, she planned to be a good wife. However, she did not open the front door or leave the small door. She completely cut off contact with her old friends. She only had some contact with family friends such as Li Qingzhao and Bai Qiannuo. But she also
Very rarely.
Ning pretended to be angry and said: "Then you have to talk to your sister carefully today, otherwise your sister will not forgive you easily."
"sure."
Seeing that Mrs. Qin had agreed, Mrs. Ning smiled happily. Suddenly she glanced at Li Qi behind Mrs. Qin, frowned slightly and asked, "Isn't this the Golden Knife Chef King?"
Li Qi asked curiously: "Do you know this sister?"
Oops. I should have thought of it a long time ago. Mrs. Ning hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Ms. Ning, a commoner woman, has blind eyes and cannot see Mount Tai. She has neglected the Privy Councilor. Please forgive me."
As expected of a person who lives in this upper class society, he always remembers his identity. Li Qi cupped his hands and said: "How dare you, how dare you, Fourth Sister Ning, quickly excuse yourself."
Mrs. Qin said in surprise: "Sister, do you know Li Qi?"
Ning said: "Although I haven't been out here for a long time, the Privy Council is famous all over the world and its name is as thunderous as thunder. How can I not recognize him?" In fact, she has never met Li Qi, but she has heard a lot about Zuixianju.
The story, of course, included the story of Li Qi and Mrs. Qin, so when she saw that Li Qi came with Mrs. Qin, she quickly thought that this person might be the famous Golden Knife Chef King.
This woman should not be underestimated! Li Qi said modestly: "Fourth Sister Ning has received the award. Those are just false reputations."
At this time, someone was heard saying in a nymphomaniac way: "So he is the Golden Knife Chef King, and he is really handsome."
"Isn't she a cook? How could there be such a handsome cook in this world? It's incredible."
"He---is he looking at me?"
"Don't be a nymphomaniac. Do you know that the last lady who served as the head of the palace was his wife?"
"Huh? Who is that woman standing next to Aunt Ning? Is she Feng Xingshou? She is really beautiful."
"That's not Feng Xingshou, but Sanniang of the Wang family. I heard she was quite famous in our Qiufengfang back then."
.......
As expected of a child of a wealthy family, his vision is different from that of ordinary people, every word is true, and it is not comparable to those unscrupulous people. At this moment, Li Qi fell in love with this place, thinking, there is really no grass anywhere in the world, it seems that every day
Just come back once.
Hearing those people pointing, Mrs. Qin felt a little uncomfortable.
Mrs. Ning glanced at Mrs. Qin and said with a smile: "It seems like Sanniang, you really haven't been out for a long time."
Mrs. Qin nodded slightly.
Mrs. Ning originally thought that Mrs. Qin came to visit her, but Li Qi was also there. She knew that Mrs. Qin must have had another purpose for her trip, so she asked, "I wonder if the Privy Councilor and Sanniang would like to give me some advice when they visit Xiaofang."
"How dare you, how dare you." Mrs. Qin nodded slightly and said truthfully: "Fourth sister, it's like this. Li Qi and I are going to come here to have a test." She is not very good at talking about what is and isn't, so she just says what she wants.
.
"Competition?"
Ning looked at Mrs. Qin in surprise, then at Li Qi, and asked curiously: "What is the competition?"
Mrs. Qin suddenly pointed to the left and said: "Swing."
"Swing?"
Li Qi exclaimed and couldn't help laughing. After a moment, he stopped laughing and said, "Sanniang, did I hear you right?"
He originally thought it was a dangerous sport similar to bungee jumping, and he was still uneasy. He never thought that Mrs. Qin would compete with him on a swing that even a child could play.
What a slut!
It seems that this lady is really too simple. Isn't she trying to take advantage of me? Li Qi was so happy that he whispered in Madam Qin's ear: "If you want to commit yourself to me, just say so. I can see it."
Considering how reserved you are, there is no need to be like this. I'm really a little embarrassed."
Mrs. Qin glared at this guy and said, "It's too early to talk about this now. We will know after comparison."
"Happy to accompany you."
Li Qi laughed happily.
A flash of narrow-mindedness flashed in Mrs. Qin's eyes, and she said, "So, you agreed."
Li Qi opened his hands and said hehe: "I really can't think of any reason to refuse this beauty's kindness."
Ning looked at Li Qi with a strange look on her face and said, "The Privy Councilor really wants to compete with Sanniang on this swing?"
"Why not?"
Ma Qiao said first: "Privy Councilor, you are a man and your wife is a woman. This competition is too unfair. It is really inappropriate."
You bastard, you are trying to ruin my good deeds, right? MD, if anyone dares to harm me, I will fight for him. Li Qi glanced at Ning and then thought about it, but there are still outsiders here, I have to
It's better to be more reserved. He sighed and said: "Yes. This competition is a bit unfair, but, alas, kindness is hard to refuse. Sanniang has invited me many times, and I really can't bear to refuse. Otherwise, Sanniang, I can do it again.
Your chance to choose."
Mrs. Qin responded decisively: "No need."
Li Qi said helplessly to Ma Qiao: "You saw it. It's really difficult for me."
Ning suddenly said: "Don't be offended by this little brother. In fact, this swing is suitable for both men and women. Men may not necessarily take advantage."
Mrs. Qin suddenly smiled and said: "Fourth sister, you heard it just now, so I would like to trouble you to be a notary for us."
Could this be the rhythm of the witness, haha, or the madam’s thoughtfulness! Li Qi said shyly: “Do you want to set up some documents or something?”
Mrs. Qin pondered for a moment and said, "Well, that's how it should be."
Why are you looking at me like this? Could it be that you are afraid that I will regret it? I keep my word. Li Qi felt offended again and said: "I will do it right away."
Mrs. Qin said to Ning, "Then I'll bother my sister."
"Oh, it's okay, I'll make arrangements now."
When Ning said this, her eyes were still shining with excitement.
After a while, Mrs. Ning asked someone to get paper and pen. Mrs. Qin quickly wrote a very simple document. Li Qi saw that there was no problem and happily put her thumbprint on it.
He didn't dare touch the brush.
Mrs. Qin wrote her name on it and nodded to Ning.
Ning extended her hand and said, "You three, please."
"please."
Li Qi followed Ning to the southeast corner of the courtyard. He saw a tall swing standing in the distance, with two thick upright columns and two pairs of intersecting joist columns. The lower end was buried deep in the soil and the upper end was strong.
A thick beam is tied on the ground. The swing rope is looped around the beam, and the end is tied to a large runner. There is also a thick log tied to the beam, perpendicular to the beam.
Li Qi looked up at the swing frame and realized that it was too high. It was at least three feet high by visual inspection. He exclaimed: "Sister Ning, your swing is really impressive. The swing frame is so high, but it is too wasteful. In fact,
Just get a tree branch, it’s just entertainment after all.”
Ning was surprised and asked, "Have you never seen this swing before?"
What? Should I have seen it before? Li Qi said sarcastically: "I have seen a lot of swings, but I have never seen such a high swing frame."
"That's it!"
Mrs. Ning looked embarrassed, and looked at Mrs. Qin again. Mrs. Qin blinked secretly, and then she said: "The Privy Envoy doesn't know something. This swing is specially used for competitions."
"Yeah?"
Li Qi asked curiously: "Then I don't know how to compete?"
"ah?"
Mrs. Ning looked at Mrs. Qin again.
"It's very simple."
Mrs. Qin pointed to one end of the thick wood perpendicular to the beam and said, "Have you seen the vase hanging on it?"
Li Qi looked up and saw a bottle hanging on both ends of the rough wood, and even more curiously hummed.
Mrs. Qin said: "We each take two willow branches and put them on the swing, and then insert the willow branches into the vase as the swing swings."
Li Qi was shocked and said: "Are you kidding? It's so high, how can you swing up there? It's just nonsense."
It seems that he has really never played it. Ning explained: "Privy minister, don't be anxious, and listen to my explanation. In fact, this kind of game is called swing and willow. After people get on it, someone will shake the wheel. , raise the swing to a height of one foot, and when it reaches the highest point, you can just insert the willow branch into it."
