"Oh, little Mengmeng, what's wrong with you!"
"Aunt Mingyue, hit me!"
"Huh? No, I just saw a big mosquito on your butt..."
"I do not believe!"
"If you don't believe me, go ask your Aunt Jin."
Xie Mingyue took Xie Zhizhen over as a matter of course. Xu Qiubai looked at them and said goodbye.
"Aunt Jin, Aunt Mingyue, she beat me..."
"I saw it."
"She's so bad, woo woo..."
Xie Zhizhen hugged Mingjin's legs and didn't let go. Mingjin sighed and said good things to Xie Mingyue.
"She's not bad."
"He is a black heart."
Xie Mingyue: "...."
Ming Jin took Xie Zhizhen out of the palace to put lanterns by the stream. Xie Mingyue followed beside him. He endured it, but he still couldn't.
"These days, some white-faced scholars like to deceive women from aristocratic families."
"Some people should not be fooled."
This is so weird.
Ming Jin glanced at her and said calmly: "I'm afraid there aren't many men like him in the world. Why do you use the word "some"."
Xie Mingyue stared at her, as if looking at a silly girl who had been coaxed away by the pretty boy.
"Are you really attracted to him? Isn't he just a pretty boy? He..."
"He has already won the imperial examination and is just one step away from entering the temple."
Not just anyone can be hired as her husband with a lot of money, and it is not enough just to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable.
"!!!"
Xie Mingyue thought back to Xu Qiubai's handsome face, and realized that he was only in his early twenties.
In comparison, these students who are full of Wuling are nothing.
"No wonder you fell in love with him, he looks very powerful." Xie Mingyue knows that the other person has a bright future no matter how easy it is. Although she still feels that the other person is not worthy of Ming Jin, she will not show it.
"It's good to be a poor scholar with a bright future. Although he has to work hard for decades and smoke from his ancestral graves before he can catch up with his father's position, it's good to work together and accompany him to get promoted to a higher position. After all, he has a good appearance.
He doesn't sound like a supercilious guy who wants to get promoted and get rich to the death of his wife. Also, he is a bit poorer, but you have inherited a lot of property, so you can let him live in your house."
Xie Mingyue said, "It's pretty good" all the time, but the peony felt too poisonous.
Got the point!
Ming Jin never expected that his silly fourth sister could have such sharp insights.
She was silent for a while and then said softly: "You are right, this man is not desirable. If I want to find a husband, I have to think carefully about it. He must be wealthy, talented, and loyal to me."
Yes, and then she will be married off with ten miles of red dowry."
Xie Mingyue heard the ridicule in her words, but she still blurted out, "Why do you have to get married, why can't you just marry someone else?"
After saying that, she met Ming Jin's surprised and strange eyes. She was immediately embarrassed and stamped her foot, "Who cares about this shit of yours? It's just because you are old. If you don't get married, it will be in my hands. Humph!"
She took the flower feathers and the flower boat by herself, put the flower feathers on the boat, and prayed in her mouth: "Lord Buddha, my two sisters are old and don't have husbands yet. I hope the Lord will take pity on you and give them to you."
You don’t need too many good husbands, just one for each of you..."
The Buddha testified that the sincerity in her words can be seen from heaven.
Ming Jin and Xie Mingdai, who had just approached and wanted to ask if they had put down the lanterns, said: "..."
Can you kick this stinky sister into the water?
However, in view of Xie Zhizhen's childish attitude of insisting on taking several aunts to follow the custom, Ming Jin and Xie Mingdai still followed the custom. Each wrote a small prayer note on the flower feathers, tied the feather handles, inserted them into the rowing boat, and drifted with the stream.
And go.
"What did you write?" Xie Mingdai asked coldly.
Ming Jin smiled tenderly: "If you and Ming Yue curse me, they will all rebound."
Xie Mingdai: "...."
————————
After the lanterns were put out, Xie Mingyue confidently proposed to go to the cause and effect flower tree in Jifeitai and throw a marriage bell with her sincere belief in finding a husband for her two sisters.
Although it is said that girls in boudoirs seek marriage, this practice is prevalent everywhere, and the etiquette and customs of the world are rarely tolerant, but Xie Mingdai never believes in this, and naturally, Ming Jin does not believe it either.
But the two of them cannot violate family etiquette. Indeed, they are older... mainly because Xie Mingyue is stronger than the two of them.
Ming Jin suspected that it was actually Xie Mingyue who had been in the countryside for four years, and that this guy plowed the fields every day and developed a strange ability to drag cattle.
"Okay, why don't you go? You hold my hand so hard." Xie Mingdai is pampered and beautiful. She can't bear the pain. She scolds Xie Mingyue in a low voice. Even if she is a little angry, she is as charming as her bones. But she
He has a strong temperament and becomes more and more eye-catching and unique.
However, Xie Mingyue was not a pity person, so she let go of Xie Mingdai when she was almost there. The latter couldn't stop complaining that she didn't have the slightest bit of etiquette and virtuousness, and looked like a country girl.
"Hmph, you two are so weak, I don't like you."
The persimmon was picked softly, and Xie Mingyue was mainly tormenting Xie Mingdai. Ming Jin was still leisurely, picked up her skirt and walked up the steps slowly, saying calmly: "Don't worry, there will always be someone who likes her."
Ah?
Xie Mingyue was confused, but Xie Mingdai, who understood instantly, suddenly blushed and glared at Ming Jin.
Ming Jin was very innocent: "Huh? What did I say?"
Although she has not left the court, she also knows that there are many lustful people in the world, and the desire for flesh and blood is natural, and it is the most normal, but most people follow the etiquette, law and morality and cover it up.
She is also self-aware, and her reputation back then is probably related to this stinky skin.
Because of Xie Mingdai's angry gaze, Ming Jin smiled slightly, tilted his head slightly and whispered to her, "It's because others care that you have your own value. For example, those people in front of me, Sister Dai may recognize them."
Naturally, she recognized it. As soon as Xie Mingdai went up, she saw a group of gentlemen and girls.
Xie Mingyue: So many people! Such a long queue!! What do they see me doing?!
Xie Mingdai: Ha! They are all vulgar people who are jealous or greedy for my beauty!
Ming Jin: It’s hard for this tree to grow so tall even though it has so many bells hanging on it.
Mingjin's attention was not on these people, but he couldn't bear the thought of someone coming forward.
"Hey, Xie Mingjin, why are you here so late! I didn't even see you when we were putting up the lanterns just now!"
"Miss Ming Jin, Miss Ming Dai, Miss Mingyue, I am Ye Qisi..."
————————
Xiao Yu, who came forward on his own initiative, immediately glanced at Ye Qisi, who was saluting, with an unfazed expression.
What kind of stinky bitch does she dare to compare with me in terms of presence?
Ye Qisi, on the other hand, has a good-natured attitude and is more calm and relaxed than other legitimate daughters.
Ming Jin, who ignored Xiao Yu, smiled and returned the gift, saying: "I've heard Miss Ye's reputation for a long time, and it's true."
Ye Qisi's eyes flashed, and she felt that the other party must know her origin, but she still looked gentle, which was probably more of a mockery.
"That's too much praise. Qisi is just an ordinary woman, not as noble as Miss Jin. However, I have heard for a long time that the Ye family is special. When we meet today, Miss Jin and Miss Dai really deserve their reputation."
It sounds like a bowl of water is equal, but with Xie Mingdai's strong temperament and Xie Mingjin's background, everyone would speculate that the two of them would definitely want to overpower each other.
Carrying water like this is actually no different from splashing water, but she has done the right etiquette, and her demeanor depends entirely on Ming Jin.
Ming Jin had actually noticed very early on that the concubine of the Ye family who was superior to their legitimate daughter was a person who would never suffer a loss and would take advantage of everything. She wanted both the external and internal reputation, and it was best to highlight others' inferiority at the same time.
She - if Ming Jin and Ming Dai create a gap over this, it will be the best outcome for her.
Killing two birds with one stone every day.
It's a pity that Ming Jin never likes to be shot.
"If you ask about the role model of the Xie family, if Miss Ye had met my eldest sister who is far away in the capital, I am afraid she would not think so highly of me and A'dai."
When it comes to knowing etiquette and talking politely, no one can compare to Ming Jin. This hypocrisy makes Xie Mingyue roll her eyes and complain every day.
However, Xie Mingyue's character design is fierce and cunning, and the opposite is restrained, but she is not afraid of Ming Jin's correct behavior, while the same kind of suppression is suppressed by others. The more Ye Qisi establishes the posture of a virtuous daughter, the more she is suppressed by Ming Jin.
Just like what she said just now.
You use your beauty to level the playing field, but she uses the age of your sisters to judge your superiority.
You judge superiority by beauty, but she evaluates the demeanor of a noble girl from a noble family by her example.
And it also closed the loopholes - you said these two Xie family girls are the most beautiful women in the Xie family, what do the other Xie family girls think?
Xie Mingyue can still be fooled, but the other one is Xie Mingrong, who is ranked as Xie's eldest sister.
Before Xie Mingdai could think of it, the hole was blocked by Ming Jin, and it was watertight. She couldn't see the slightest feeling of being directed at you. She just felt that it was natural and appropriate, and there was no fault in it.
Ye Qisi also reacted. Her expression stiffened for a moment, and then she smiled kindly and said, "I'm afraid it's hard for a woman like me to have such an honor."
"If you have the will, there is always a chance."
"..."
Ye Qisi, who would never admit that she was "careful" in her profession, could only smile in response. Fortunately, Ming Jin had no intention of greeting her.
"What are you looking at? Aren't you going to hang a bell? The marriage happiness of your two sisters depends on your little chubby hand."
Ming Jin flicked Xie Mingyue's head next to him with his finger. Xie Mingyue came back to her senses and glared at Ming Jin out of habit. Then she went to the little novice monk to ask for the bell, but...
"Get in line." Ming Jin said softly, and the latter pouted, giving up the thought of using the power of the Xie family to overwhelm others, and obediently led the maids in line to wait to hang bells on the causal flower tree.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Xiao Yu had the intention to go over and cause trouble for Ming Jin, but a guard came next to Ming Jin, who seemed to have something to report. Xiao Yu thought that the other person seemed to be one of the people who forcibly held down the third son of his employer and slapped his mouth. He suddenly froze his legs and became slippery.
As soon as I turned the corner, I obediently moved to the back of the queue.
Everyone was stunned again.
Xie Mingyue, the most unruly person in Wuling, turned to look at Xiao Yu, the most handsome person behind him. The two looked at each other and both rolled their eyes.
Xie Mingdai, the most beautiful person, is fighting openly and secretly with Ye Qisi, the most truthful and kind person.

"Is there any news from Third Uncle?"
"Not yet. The third master's official residence is in a neighboring city. If we intercept him on the way, we will probably catch up later, but our troops have already gone up."
Ming Jin held on to the railing and looked at the small waterfall opposite the platform where the fresh water mist hit his face. He frowned slightly, as if he was worried about Xie Li's safety, but what he said was that he had nothing to do with Xie Li and the cult.
"Go and see if there's any location over there where you can have an unobstructed view..."
Which position? Whose position.
Xu Qiubai's.
