Gu Qian: "His courtesy name is Hanming."
His courtesy name was given to him by his master when he was young.
However, he did not undergo the coming-of-age ceremony, so the story was never told.
Only the master knows this word.
"Like a turtledove cooing, soaring high into the sky." Qiu Yan exclaimed, "The calligraphy reflects the person." "Still still, yet astounding when it strikes—very powerful, excellent calligraphy!"
Hearing Qiu Yan praise him, Gu Qian gave her a doting smile.
Wild grasses grow, glistening with thin dew;
There was a beautiful woman named Qiu Yan.
Tsinghua University, with its clear and graceful campus.
"Yan Yan, your husband will give you a courtesy name: Qing Yang. What do you think?"
Clear? That name sounds like a shampoo brand.
"It's not very good." Qiu Yan shook her head in disdain; she genuinely thought it was bad.
But Gu Qian found it increasingly feasible the more he listened.
"Qingyang, which sounds like Qiu Yan, is a good name."
Qiu Yan gritted her teeth; she really disliked that word. "It sounds awful!"
"Then..." Gu Qian was at a loss. What kind of name should he give Qiu Yan to match her? "Qingyang Wanxi... Wanxi, Wanxi, how about that?"
"What a pity, what is it that I'm so sorry about?" She wasn't good at choosing names either. "Qiu Yan, courtesy name Yan Yan!"
"This..." She's certainly making things easy for him; it's the first time Gu Qian has heard a girl choose a name so casually. "Then Qingyan will do."
Seeing Gu Qian lower his eyes and carefully consider the name 'Qingyan', Qiu Yan still felt it didn't sound good. "Never mind. Let's not talk about this anymore."
Qingyan, isn't that a good name? "Okay, that's it." Gu Qian said to himself.
In a short while, Gu Qian had already styled Qiu Yan's hair into a bun.
Curious, Qiu Yan quickly walked to the mirror.
Her dark hair was half down and half up, and the way it was styled was quite nice.
That's right, the hairpin has changed...
Seeing the exquisite jade hairpin on her head, Qiu Yan turned her head and met Gu Qian's affectionate peach blossom eyes, her expression slightly stunned.
"This jade hairpin..." When did he buy it? "Are you still jealous?"
"Do you like it?" The jealousy had already dissipated, and now Gu Qian simply wanted to give Qiu Yan something to express his feelings.
Isn't it said that love is sealed with a jade hairpin?
“…I like it.” How could she not like something Gu Qian gave her?
After packing their belongings for home, the two of them strolled hand in hand along Baiyang Street.
They first went to Jiang Liu's clothing shop.
On the second floor of the clothing shop, Zhao Yuanyuan was embroidering the cuffs of a garment under the guidance of Hua Xiuniang.
Since Jiang Liu returned to Huaiyuan, Zhao Yuanyuan has been living with Hua Xiuniang in the clothing shop, where she has devoted herself to studying embroidery.
Seeing Qiu Yan bring Gu Qian, she was somewhat surprised. She first bowed slightly to Gu Qian, and then smiled and said, "Qiu Yan, you've come."
Qiu Yan nodded. "We're going back to the village today. When are you going back?"
"I'm going back with Brother Dayu." Zhao Yuanyuan genuinely envied Qiu Yan for being able to manage her time freely.
"Alright."
Miao Xiuniang glanced at Zhao Yuanyuan, her eyes filled with jealousy.
However, she was still very friendly towards Qiu Yan and the other person.
Not seeing Jiang Liu and her second uncle, Qiu Yan didn't linger and left the clothing store with Gu Qian to make their final purchases.
...That night, in Huaiyuan City.
The second uncle whom Qiu Yan was thinking about was walking quietly down Huaiyuan Street with Zheng Hong and Jiang Lian.
They had already shaken off all the tails that were behind them.
During the day, as soon as Qiu Dafu learned that Jiang Liu and others had been arrested, he rushed to the Jiang residence.
Having witnessed the incident at the Jiang residence, Qiu Dafu suppressed his anxiety and waited until nightfall, hoping to catch the villain off guard and rescue them.
