Chapter 185: Miser
[Host, let's go eat melons! ]
[What delicious food is there? You haven’t eaten enough since you went to court today! ]
[Host, come on, I want to go. I can just go and see Mr. Qin’s melons.]
Fang Lingchu really didn't want to go, but he didn't want to disappoint the system.
【Okay, go.】
"Let's take Miss Qin's invitation! By the way, are you and Sister Wanrou going?"
"Miss Eldest and Miss Lin are already prepared, they are just waiting for you to come back and make the decision."
"Okay, then ask them to wait for me for a while. I'll go change my clothes."
"Yes, miss."
When I returned to the room, Blueberry had already prepared her clothes.
"Miss, you're back. Are you going to attend Miss Qin's banquet?"
"Yeah, you prepared clothes for me."
"Yes, the young lady wants to wear that one."
Fang Lingchu took a glance and said, "Wear blue! It's more low-key."
"Yes, miss."
Fang Lingchu changed her clothes and had her hair done.
Then, accompanied by Raspberry, he went out.
In the carriage.
Fang Lingyan and Lin Wanrou were talking about something.
Seeing Fang Lingchu coming, the two stopped talking.
"Chu Chu, what's wrong with you?"
When Fang Lingchu got into the car, he leaned against it, looking as if he had lost all hope in life.
"Nothing, I'm just sleepy, sister, call me when we get there."
"Chu Chu, if it really doesn't work then we won't go. I believe Miss Qin will understand you."
Fang Lingchu turned over and murmured, "It's okay, sister. I'll be fine after a rest."
After saying that, he fell asleep.
Looking at her sleeping sister, Fang Lingyan asked someone to cover her with a cloak.
Then he took out two books for himself and Lin Wanrou to read.
After walking for a while, Fang Lingyan heard the sound of horse hooves.
Then Wu Baixuan's voice was heard.
"Brother Fang, why are you alone today?"
"I can't help it. Have you also received a post from the Qin family?"
"Well, we have to give Prime Minister Qin face."
Fang Lingming looked at Wu Baixuan, came to his side and asked, "Wu Baixuan, what's going on between you and my elder sister?"
Hearing Fang Lingyan's name, Wu Baixuan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's nothing, I just didn't know much when I was a child."
"I didn't understand it when I was young, but Yan'er and I don't think so. What did you do?"
"I didn't do anything. I just didn't know better at the time. I was angry with her and said something a little harsh. I didn't expect she still remembers it.
You, sister Yan, are too narrow-minded."
"Wu Baixuan, you said bad things about me again. You're going too far."
"Fang Lingyan, I didn't say anything wrong. It's just a small matter. Why do you have to worry about it?"
"How could it be so? You still haven't apologized to me yet!"
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, that's enough! You stingy guy."
"Wu Baixuan, you..."
Fang Lingyan's eyes turned red when he looked at the person riding on the carriage.
"Okay, okay, I admit my mistake. I shouldn't have said that. Okay, please don't cry!"
Fang Lingyan pulled down the curtains and angrily picked up the book next to her to read.
Lin Wanrou glanced at her secretly and then quickly lowered her head.
Lin Wanrou: I really want to know what happened! But the second young lady is still sleeping, so I can’t eat the melon.
Fang Lingming saw that Wu Baixuan made his sister jump in anger with just a few words.
Somewhat curiously, he asked, "What did you do to my sister?"
Wu Baixuan explained helplessly: "It's nothing, it's just that she was talking to someone this morning and I accidentally hit her with something, that's all."
"Who is that? You could hit someone by accident."
Others may not know how good Wu Baixuan’s martial arts are, but Fang Lingming knows best.
Although this guy is not as skilled as Gu Wangyan.
But his abilities are top-notch, how could he be careless?
"I really didn't mean it. Shouldn't you be concerned about who your sister is meeting?"
"Who are you meeting?"
"He's a scholar with shifty eyes. Tell your sister to be careful and not to fall for anyone."
After saying that, he rode away quickly on his horse.
Fang Lingming looked at his friend's back and felt strange.
Soon everyone arrived at the Qin Mansion.
[Host, host, please wake up quickly, we have arrived. 】
[I know, you are so noisy. ]
Fang Lingchu slowly opened his eyes, was stunned for a while, and then went out.
"Chu Chu, come here."
Fang Lingyan took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the saliva from the corner of her sister's mouth.
"You're so old, why are you still drooling when you sleep?"
Fang Lingchu took her sister's handkerchief sheepishly and quickly wiped her face.
At this time, Qin Menglan came over.
"Meet the princess."
When the other noble ladies saw Fang Lingchu, they also bowed to her.
After Fang Lingchu asked everyone to get up, they went in together.
Among the people who came today, Fang Lingchu was the oldest, and the others were all daughters and wives of officials.
Fang Lingchu saw that his wife was also present, and couldn't help asking: [Guagua, why do I have a feeling that today's banquet is a blind date banquet! ]
[Host, your feeling is correct. Today's banquet is for the Prime Minister's wife to arrange a blind date for her daughter.]
【Oh! What happened? Tell me. 】
Prime Minister's wife: She hasn't said anything yet! Why are you suddenly mentioning her?
[What else can I say? Prime Minister Qin has two biological daughters, but the rest are not. In order to have descendants for the Qin family, Prime Minister Qin plans to let Qin Menglan find a son-in-law. Didn't you see the people who came today? Many of them have lower status than her.
Needless to say, the identities of the male guests are mostly successful candidates and talented people, as well as illegitimate sons and some dandy young men. Apart from your family and Wu Baixuan, there is only Prime Minister Su's eldest son, and no one else. 】
[Is that so? Actually, this is quite good. Qin Menglan is also a very capable young lady. It would be nice for her to find a man who can come back and take care of her parents.]
Qin Menglan: What the hell, can it be like this?
Others: Asking a husband to take care of his parents-in-law is something against the will of Heaven.
[Yes, Qin Menglan's achievements in the future will definitely be similar to his father's, so it is necessary to find someone to take care of the child and manage the inner courtyard.]
Qin Menglan: She doesn’t even dare to think about it.
Prime Minister’s Wife: That’s what she thinks.
[Who does Qin Menglan like? ]
[No. 198 on the gold list: Ping Siqi, the one who failed the exam but has some talent: Feng Jincheng, and the one who is good at writing lyrics: Bao Yu. These three people are currently the favorites of the Prime Minister's wife.]
What are the characteristics of these three people?
[Let's talk about Ping Siqi first! He is good-looking and has a good temperament. Most importantly, he was selected because he saved the prime minister's wife on the way to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.
Feng Jincheng was chosen by Qin Menglan herself. He was filial and kind. He took part in the imperial examination and brought his old mother with him. He took care of his mother while taking the exam. He was very filial and considerate, which touched her.
As for Bao Yu! 】
