Chapter 170: Son and daughter
So they never returned it?
Everyone else looked at Qi Wanqiu, curious about how powerful she was.
The system said: [Switch! When the two were twelve years old, Madam Qi wanted to find a partner for her son.]
Mrs. Qi felt a terrible headache when she saw her embroidering clothes with needle and thread.
"Son! You are already an adult now. Have you ever considered switching places with your sister?"
At this time, Qi Wanqiu was killing enemies at the border, eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls.
Qi Shujie looked up at his mother and asked, "Mom, look at me now. Which girl would marry me? Look at what my sister is doing outside. Do you think I can handle it?"
Mrs. Qi was choked by her son's words.
Qi Shujie was wearing a light blue dress today, and the hairpins in her hair were also blue. Her face was lightly powdered, and her lips were red and chubby, which made her look very pleasing to the eye.
In two years, she will be a famous noble lady in the capital.
Mrs. Qi realized that this could not go on any longer and she had to exchange the two children back.
She wrote a letter to her husband who was far away at the border, asking Qi Wanqiu to come back.
Qi Wanqiu had been away from home for three years. When she came back, she saw her brother wearing a beautiful dress and chatting enthusiastically with the young ladies.
The clothes he wore showed off his figure perfectly.
Except for the chest, everything else looks better than others.
At the same time, she also heard the fame her brother had earned for her.
The girl from the Qi family is proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially the zither, and she is also very good at embroidery.
It can be said that many noble families were vying to offer betrothal gifts.
Even Fang Lingchu's mother has taken a fancy to Qi Wanqiu!
It's a pity that Mrs. Qi said she wanted to keep her daughter for a few more years and did not agree.
[Guagua, I don't remember my mother originally planning for my eldest brother to marry Qi Wanqiu.]
The system said: [Yes, yes, your mother seemed to like Qi Wanqiu very much at the beginning.]
Qi Wanqiu: Thank you! That's not her. She's not good at managing the inner house.
But it’s not impossible if I can be sisters with the princess.
It seems that the Fang family is not allowed to take concubines. In this case, it should be okay!
Just when Qi Wanqiu was considering the feasibility of this matter, she suddenly felt a pair of eyes looking at her. As soon as she looked up, the feeling disappeared.
: Who was it that just looked at her with hostility?
Fang Lingchu had no idea that his words had caused undercurrents among the people present.
The children of the Fang family can now be said to be the targets of marriage for everyone in the current dynasty.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Fang did not agree. She wanted her children to make their own choice.
Or wait until Fang Lingchu sees who is more suitable for her son or daughter, and then make a decision.
So these girls, although they are afraid of Fang Lingchu, but also want to enter the Fang family, which is very contradictory.
[My brother probably wouldn't like a girl like Qi Wanqiu.]
The system said: [Qi Wanqiu won't fall in love with your brother either, she already has someone she likes.]
Qi Wanqiu: She already has someone she likes? How could she not know?
Could it be...?
Qi Wanqiu thought of the young man she met on the street a few days ago. If it was him, it seemed like she had someone she liked.
Who is it?
System: [Third Princess, Long Yunlu.]
The Third Princess: Ah! Who likes her?
Qi Wanqiu: Huh? She doesn't even know the Third Princess, how can she like her?
Fang Lingchu was excited.
【Tell me, what's going on.】
The system rolled its eyes at her and said, "Let's finish the last story before we talk about this."
Fang Lingchu was a little unhappy, but still nodded.
When Qi Wanqiu came back, she felt like the sky was falling.
She doesn't know how to do anything. Asking her to attend those parties is simply killing her!
Especially since there was a chrysanthemum viewing party just a few days after she came back.
Qi Wanqiu usually reads military strategies, she really can't write poems like this one written under the moon and flowers!
Still with chrysanthemum as the topic, she was completely confused.
: What should I do? What should I do? Brother, help me.
The adjutant beside Qi Wanqiu quickly sneaked out and brought the news back home.
Qi Wanqiu was about to cry as she watched them go up one by one to recite poems and compose couplets.
At this time, Xia Ruirui just appeared.
"Miss Qi, what poem have you prepared today?"
Qi Shujie is usually very low-key, so no one doubts why she doesn't actively write poetry.
Qi Wanqiu smiled awkwardly and said, "Well, this is a secret. You will know it soon."
Xia Ruirui looked at her strangely and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qi Wanqiu quickly pretended to be uncomfortable, covered her chest and said, "Maybe I'm a little tired and a little breathless."
Xia Ruirui helped the person sit aside and said, "Why don't you go and write first, and then find a place to rest."
Hearing this, Qi Wanqiu was so scared that she almost coughed out her lungs.
"Ahem, no, no, I'll be fine after a while. You go check it out first, I'll be there in a minute."
Xia Ruirui was a little worried, but since the other party had already said so, she felt embarrassed to stay any longer.
"Miss, you're clearly out of kindness and concern for her, so why does she act like she doesn't want to talk to you? This is so despicable."
Xia Ruirui asked the girl not to speak, although she also felt that Qi Wanqiu was a little strange today.
"Stop talking, maybe Miss Qi is not feeling well!"
Qi Wanqiu had good hearing and she heard the conversation between the two people.
But she couldn't explain it!
It was almost the end when Qi Shujie came to the banquet and replaced Qi Wanqiu.
Three days later, Qi Shujie went to the military camp, and there happened to be a competition that day.
Qi Wanqiu is usually the first one to go up and guard the ring.
Today, Qi Shujie felt uncomfortable looking at the dirty men above.
"I won't go up today and watch you fight."
A general who had a bad relationship with Qi Wanqiu came over and said, "General Qi, you look down on me. You knew I was coming today, so you deliberately stayed away?"
Qi Shujie: He didn’t!
"No, General, it's just that the weather is hot and it's uncomfortable to sweat in a fight. You can give it a try next time."
The man was a rough guy to begin with, and when he heard Qi Shujie say that, he thought the other party looked down on him.
It almost started right down there.
Fortunately, Qi Wanqiu's confidant saw it and came over to stop the fight.
Qi Shujie frowned as he looked at the torn clothes.
He doesn't like being around these people.
When I got home in the evening, I told Qi Wanqiu about this.
Qi Wanqiu was a simple-minded person. When she heard someone bullying her brother, she was so angry that she immediately wanted to beat the person down.
"My defeated general actually dares to come looking for trouble. Tomorrow I will go back and kill him."
Mrs. Qi felt a headache when she looked at her two children!
My daughter has a personality like a man, not particular about details.
My son has a personality like a girl, sensitive, suspicious and delicate. Why is her life so miserable?
As Mrs. Qi thought about it, she began to cry.
Qi Shujie saw his mother crying and hurried to comfort her.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qi Wanqiu, who was still angry, realized later that her mother was crying.
I also ran over to comfort her.
"Mom, what's wrong? If anyone bullies you, tell me and I'll cut them down."
Qi Shujie looked at his sister and patted her.
"Stop talking."
