    Just after 6 o'clock, on the official road outside the capital, seven or eight carriages drove over from there.  The horse's hooves stirred up smoke and dust, attracting passersby's attention.

    I saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old sitting on a dark brown horse in front of him.  He has good facial features and slightly dark skin.  There were several stout male servants guarding the two sides, followed by three luxurious carriages.

    I saw the city gate in the distance. In the second car behind me, a big hand lifted up the curtain of the window, stuck out a fat white head, and shouted impatiently:

    "How long will it take for Changwu to enter the city? My intestines are about to burst out along the way."

    The young man in front of him flashed his eyes and said respectfully:

    "Brother, it's just ahead. We'll probably be there in half an hour."

    The fat, white man snorted dissatisfied:

    ¡°I really don¡¯t understand what our parents are rushing to do?¡±

    In the car in front, Mr. Qian opened a door:

    "Changwen, you've been complaining all the time, so why don't you think about it? It's the birthday of the old man in the He family. We can't hold the door open. Besides, don't you know that your parents have worked so hard?  I want to take advantage of Mr. He's birthday to ask your uncle to take you to introduce some officials of the court, so that when you enter the officialdom in the future, you won't have a black eye."

    In the car behind them were Qian Liu and her daughter Qian Yuejiao.  After listening to Master Qian's words, Mrs. Qian Liu glanced sideways at her daughter, and couldn't help but think that although her sister didn't say it clearly in her letter, she intended to promise Yuejiao to Zi Qian.

    She has seen Ziqian's child once or twice in the past years.  But it's really hard to find someone like this from thousands of miles away. He's handsome and has an elegant temperament. He's also the only direct grandson of the He family.  My sister is now in charge of the He Mansion, and there is no old lady above her. If my daughter comes through, she will not be wronged.

    "I just thought that even though the sisters were interested, the famous Hanlin bachelor in the He family could not.  I'm afraid I won't look down on her Yuejiao.  To say that Yue Jiaosheng was passable, not to mention very pretty, but there was something touching about her.  It's just that his temper is a bit reckless and naive, even though he invited his husband to teach chess, calligraphy and painting.  She is the one who hates learning these things the most, but now she really hasn't learned anything useful.

    Although they have two children, they only have one girl, so they are somewhat spoiled.  She looks like she is thirteen, but she is still like a child, without any scheming.

    Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.  Watching the carriage enter the city, Qian Yuejiao opened the curtains and looked out curiously, her eyes even running out.  Everything looks fresh and good.  While reading, he kept talking:

    "Mom, we should have come to the capital a long time ago. This place is far better than our Yongping City. You see, even the beggar has far fewer patches"

    Mrs. Liu sighed, pulled down the curtain, took her hand and said earnestly:

    "Your aunt's house is different from ordinary people. When you enter your aunt's house, you must remember to behave dignifiedly and talk less. It is not dignified for a girl's house to be chattering like this. Your two cousins ??are not the only ones in this house. I heard that the people in the Earl's house  The third girl is also living here as a guest now. It would not be good for her to see the joke."

    Qian Yuejiao pouted and said:

    "Then I'm not allowed to speak. Can't I speak when I see Brother Ziqian?"

    As he spoke, his face suddenly turned a little pink, which added a bit of bright beauty.

    Qian Yuejiao has been the only one in the Qian family since she was a child. She has no sisters to compare with. Even though she has several cousins, they are still inferior to her in every aspect.  Coupled with the pampering of parents, no matter what happened, everything had to go according to one's wishes, and there would be trouble if anything went wrong.  But he has an unruly and willful temperament, but he doesn't have much scheming, so her mother is worried.

    Last year, He Ziqian obeyed his mother's orders and went to Yongping City to celebrate his birthday. After Qian Yuejiao saw him, he couldn't let go.  Compared with the several cousins ??and my two brothers I saw in the past, they are simply incomparable. He is handsome, gentle, generous and decent.

    Later, her girl secretly overheard what her mother and father said, saying that her aunt intended for her to marry her cousin Ziqian, and she became even more interested in it from then on.  Now when I enter the capital, I see such prosperity again, but it is not comparable to the small Yongping City.  I made a vow in my heart that I would never go back no matter what this time, I would definitely stay here for the rest of my life.

    Qian Yuejiao was so happy in her heart that she could not listen to her mother's advice, but it just passed by her ears.

    The carriage passed through the busy streets and turned into a small street.  He stopped in front of a two-door courtyard gate.  Changwu swung his stool and dismounted, and took a few steps over to help Mr. Qian get out of the car.

    &The wife¡¯s little thoughts, I don¡¯t know if he is looking at her. Isn¡¯t it just that she wants to tell Zi Qian about her niece? Just look at her father and don¡¯t even think about it.  That kid from Changwu was pretty good, and he had a solid foundation for his advance and retreat, but it was a pity that he was a little heavy-minded.

    So he found an excuse to hide out temporarily. The angry Mrs. Liu became sulky again, but there was nothing she could do.

    The chief butler He Jin led Mr. Qian and Qian Changwen and Qian Changwu to the flower hall in front and sat down to serve tea. He only said that Mr. Qian had an important entertainment and would be back soon.

    Over there, Mrs. Qian Liu and Qian Yuejiao were led by Mrs. Wang all the way through the corridor and veranda into Mrs. Liu's yard.  While Mrs. Wang spoke warmly to the two women, she secretly looked at the niece whom the lady had longed for, but she couldn't help but be disappointed.

    Not to mention comparing with Miss Xie, any lady from the capital would be more respectable than her.  And when he acted, he looked like a small-minded person who had never seen the world.  Not to mention the eldest young master, as long as anyone with eyes stands together with Miss Xie, it is impossible for him to fall in love with this one.

    There are still some shadows of the wife's youth between her eyebrows, but although her clothes are luxurious, they are a bit tacky.

    I think back to when Miss Xie came into the house, she looked so cool and calm.  When it comes out, it looks like a lotus that has just emerged from the water, so clear and beautiful.  This person is really a bit rustic, coming from this family background!  But it really can't be changed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
