The three of them walked in like this.
Ye Xinran had a deep impression when she went to the Yan Mansion last time. She felt that the Yan Mansion was really rich. The pavilions, towers, plants and trees all exuded luxury.
I didn't expect that when I came to Xiangcheng, I would find that Mr. Yan and his family had their own house, which was also magnificently decorated, with a small bridge, flowing water, and a deep courtyard.
It's a very proud feeling...
When passing by a small garden, Ye Xinran suddenly stopped.
Wu Neng and Zhu Qian also stopped.
Zhu Qian asked her puzzledly, "Xinran, what's wrong? Why didn't you leave suddenly?"
"Well, wait a moment!" Ye Xinran looked around the garden and asked the old farmer who was taking care of the flowers and plants.
"Uncle, what kind of flower is this? It's so beautiful?"
The old farmer stopped what he was doing and said with a smile, "This is a peony flower."
"Oh! What kind of peony is this?"
The old farmer paused and smiled, "I really don't know the variety of this flower. After all, the old lady is famous for her love of peonies. She has collected famous ones from all over the world, but she doesn't know all the varieties."
Ye Xinran nodded.
"You are busy, I am just taking a look!"
The old farmer nodded and continued his work. A drop of sweat quietly flowed down his forehead where no one could see.
He was nervous. Was he recognized?
Ye Xinran briefly admired the flowers here before turning around and walking over to Wu Neng and the others.
"I'm sorry, this garden is so beautiful that I couldn't help but look at it for a little longer!"
"It's okay, it's okay! Grandmother Yu's peony flowers are truly the best in the world."
Zhu Qian held her hand and said, "When you have time, come to my house and take a look. The flowers in my garden are also beautiful!
There aren't many peonies, but there are other beautiful flowers! For example, I like plum blossoms!
Um, but they haven’t bloomed yet these days! We have to wait until winter! But there are chrysanthemums that are blooming now! They are also very beautiful! "
"Okay, I'll definitely go when I have time!" Ye Xinran said with a smile.
Wu Neng glanced at the old farmer from behind, narrowed his eyes, said nothing, and continued walking forward.
He was secretly alert. He had carefully selected this flower farmer to take care of the old lady's peonies. How could he not be able to tell the variety? This was strange. He had to check it out.
Ye Xinran was also suspicious at this time.
When she passed by the garden, she smelled a strange smell, very faint, a little milky, but not milky. This smell attracted a small black butterfly, which she actually saw.
This was what she had done to Yu Xiaodie, Yu Yi. But there was only the flower farmer around. She approached and talked to him. Yu Yi must have been wearing a human skin mask, but his voice did not change, so she recognized him at once.
What puzzled her was why he disguised himself and entered the Yan Mansion. She still remembered that at that time, Yu Xiaodie gave him the task of secretly monitoring Nanhua's every move! Could it be that Nanhua is in the Yan Mansion now! Or could it be that Yu Xiaodie gave another order?
No, she must ask her master and the others to remind them later!
Several people soon arrived at the backyard.
At this time, in the backyard, besides Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yu, and Mr. and Mrs. Ye Liang, Gu Yanming was also there, as well as a young woman and a young man.
Several people were chatting happily there. When they saw Ye Xinran and others coming over.
Gu Yanming immediately went over to greet her. He said hello to Zhu Qian, then stepped forward and took Ye Xinran's hand.
"Princess, you've come just in time! Senior sister and senior brother are here! We are still discussing where to set up the banquet to host the disciple-accepting banquet for Master's Wife and you!"
Ye Xinran was startled and was pulled in by Gu Yanming. He stood in front of the young woman and the man.
"Senior sister, senior brother, this is my princess, her name is Ye Xinran!"
Gu Yanming introduced Ye Xinran again.
"This is our senior sister, the daughter of the hidden Qiu family, her name is Qiu Yanli! Senior sister is very good at martial arts and medicine! If you have any questions in the future, you can ask her for advice!"
Ye Xinran saw the woman in front of him, who was about twenty years old. She was dressed in black, with a jade belt around her waist, her hair was tied in a simple bun, and she only wore a simple black jade hairpin. She had an oval face, picturesque eyebrows, gentle and graceful, and a hint of heroism when she smiled. She had a very unique temperament.
Ye Xinran nodded and called sweetly, "Big Sister!"
Qiu Yanli smiled, took out a small wooden box from her arms, and handed it to Ye Xinran.
"This is a gift from my senior sister. I hope you like it!"
Ye Xinran happily took the small wooden box and opened it, revealing a small short knife inlaid with many gemstones.
Ye Xinran pulled the knife out of the scabbard. He didn't know what material it was made of. It was much lighter than ordinary knives, but it was shining with a cold light and looked extremely sharp.
“Look, isn’t my eldest disciple very generous? He gave all these sacred objects from the Western Regions to the little girl.” Old Yan raised his head proudly, as if the things were given by him!
Madam Yu glanced at Mr. Yan, and Mr. Yan immediately shut up.
Ye Xinran's eyes lit up. This really didn't look like something from the Central Plains.
"Thank you, Senior Sister. I like it very much."
"As long as you like it!"
Qiu Yanli was obviously relieved. She still remembered that her master had clearly written in the letter that the gift must be expensive! Otherwise, he would punish her!
"This is our second senior brother! Yue Chenghan! He is a knight who travels the world with a sword! No one can match our second senior brother's swordsmanship. If you want to improve your swordsmanship, you can look for us!"
Ye Xinran looked at the man in front of her. He was about the same age as Gu Yanming, but he was a little unkempt, dressed like a warrior, and looked a little vicissitudes of life. He was handsome, with deep facial features and wheat-colored skin. His hair was tied up high, and only fixed with a jade hairpin. He had no accessories on.
Ye Xinran nodded and called respectfully, "Hello, Second Senior Brother!"
Yue Chenghan coughed lightly, nodded a little uncomfortably, picked up a long box from the small table beside him, and handed it directly to Ye Xinran.
"Junior sister, this sword is for you!"
Ye Xinran took it and opened it. Inside was a sword with a red handle. It was a little shorter and thinner than an ordinary sword, but it looked very delicate.
"Juechen!" Gu Yanming raised his eyebrows, looked at Qiu Yanli again and said, "Senior Brother, you are really willing to give it up!"
Yue Chenghan smiled bitterly but said nothing.
Qiu Yanli also glanced at the Juechen Sword, then looked away expressionlessly.
Mr. Yan watched from the side and sighed silently in his heart. What a good couple, why can't it work out?
Gu Yanming wanted to stop his princess from putting away her sword, but he had no way to object. He could only remain silent.
Ye Xinran didn't understand why, but she was still very happy to receive the sword from Xie.
The two of them also sat down on one side. Ye Xinran happened to be sitting next to Lin.
Lin excitedly held Ye Xinran's hand and wiped her tears. She had never thought that her daughter would be so outstanding and be able to study under a famous teacher. There were also several senior sisters and brothers.
Lin and her husband only have this one daughter. They have always been worried that she has no brothers or sisters and no one can take care of her. Now it’s all right. So many people care about her. Even if they are gone one day, they are not afraid that she will be lonely.
