The He family of Qingyuan came to Beijing to pay tribute to Xu Qingmo and hairpins. Even Mrs. He, who had not moved around for many years, came all the way from Jiangnan to the capital this time.
This move was enough to prove that the He family valued Xu Qingmo.
At the palace banquet, Xu Qingmo was forced to perform a dance that was stunning. Especially her appearance, which was even more beautiful than that of the unmarried first lady. Her hair-length hair aroused the expectations of many young people!
Everyone in Ningyuanhou's house was busy with her and Hairi's matters, but she didn't pay attention at all.
He Jiaojiao left Beijing when she was young. Now that she is back in Beijing, everything is surprising and fun. She takes Xu Qingmo to play on the street every day.
Although Xu Qingmo was unwilling, he adhered to the principle that he who came was a guest, so he did his best to accompany him.
On this day, He Jiaojiao came to Xu Qingmo early in the morning and asked her to go out and play with her. She happened to be practicing swordplay in the yard. He Jiaojiao did not rush her, so he sat aside and waited for her.
He Jiaojiao had heard of Xu Qingmo before coming to the capital, and knew that her temperament was different from that of many girls. She preferred things that boys liked, such as horse riding and archery.
She originally thought that Xu Qingmo would be a willful and unruly person, but she didn't expect that although she liked riding horses and archery, she was very well behaved and even did better than her.
He Jiaojiao dragged her cheeks and looked at Xu Qingmo who was practicing in the yard, and gradually became fascinated.
Xu Qingmo came back with a carbine, sweaty hair stuck to his cheeks, fair skin, sharp eyes, and blood-red lips, which looked particularly bright under the winter sun.
"Miss Jiaojiao!" Huaying came over with a bowl of freshly cooked bird's nest porridge, interrupting He Jiaojiao's reverie.
"What?" He Jiaojiao suddenly raised her head and looked at Huaying.
Hua Ying placed the bird's nest porridge in her hand in front of He Jiaojiao: "Miss Jiaojiao knew that Miss Jiaojiao would come over, so she specially prepared it!"
He Jiaojiao looked at the bird's nest porridge in front of her and was stunned for a moment: "How can you prepare this for me?"
"The girl said, Miss Jiaojiao is already engaged. She must have good skin and good looks. This is the most nourishing thing!" Hua Ying said with a smile and turned around to leave.
"Hua Ying!" He Jiaojiao called to Hua Ying, "Do you girls practice like this every day?"
"Yes, no matter spring, summer, autumn or winter, I practice every day!" Hua Ying nodded, then lowered her voice and said softly, "Do you think a girl like this is much prettier than those young men?"
He Jiaojiao's eyes lit up and she grabbed Hua Ying's hand: "Yes, yes! She's so pretty. If she were a boy, how many girls would have to come over to her!"
Hua Ying originally just wanted to tease He Jiaojiao, but she didn't expect that she would be so excited, and she felt a little embarrassed: "If he were a man, he would probably look like the prince!"
He Jiaojiao thought about it and her eyes brightened: "Does my cousin also look so good when he practices?"
"I haven't seen this before. They are probably the same!" Hua Ying scratched her head in embarrassment.
He Jiaojiao's eyes shone, but then she felt a little regretful: "What a pity, I'm already engaged!"
"What's the pity?" Xu Qingmo walked over quickly after finishing his practice.
"Nothing!" He Jiaojiao quickly shook her head, "Have you finished practicing?"
Xu Qingmo took the towel handed over by Qu Lian and wiped his sweat, then looked at He Jiaojiao: "Cousin, are you going to visit the shops in the capital today to buy some fabrics and jewelry you like?"
"Okay, let me see what's fashionable in the capital!" He Jiaojiao agreed with a smile.
Xu Qingmo nodded, then went to take a shower and change clothes.
When the two of them went out, they happened to meet Xu Qingling in the next courtyard. She was dressed very carefully, obviously she wanted to meet someone.
As Xu Qingling's younger sister, she should have said hello to Xu Qingmo, but of course, she didn't want to talk to them and just got in the car.
He Jiaojiao was a little dissatisfied and was about to speak when she was held back by Xu Qingmo: "Don't go there!"
He Jiaojiao was a little surprised, "Aren't you angry at her attitude?"
Xu Qingmo smiled: "What's the point of being angry with her? That mother of hers is always acting up and rolling around. It's okay. Don't provoke her! Grandma is old. If she gets into trouble and scares grandma, we will have sinned. !”
Although He Jiaojiao was not convinced, she thought that this was Xu Qingmo's cousin after all, and after all, it had nothing to do with him: "You will suffer the consequences!"
Xu Qingmo wasn't angry either, he just smiled and said: "Suffering a loss is a blessing!"
Xu Qingling now goes to a courtyard in the suburbs to see Lin Shaoyang every day. She goes there in the morning and comes back in the evening. She knows exactly what she is going to do, but she and Ji Li are about to come, and the elders in the family are all there, so she doesn't want to be with her for the time being. What's the dispute?
Xu Qingmo took He Jiaojiao around the capital. The two daughters' families both had the unique charm of Jiangnan people. They were quite agile in raising their hands and feet. They were very different from those women in the capital who pretended to be weak. It didn't take long for them to It attracted a lot of attention.
"Why are you people here staring at my daughter's house? It's so unruly!" He Jiaojiao felt a little unhappy when she felt the gaze of the shopkeeper behind her.
"Most of the women in the capital are tall, but they just imitate the frailty of the southerners. I haven't learned how to be delicate, but I have learned a lot about being sick!" Xu Qingmo said softly, "A cheerful Jiangnan woman like you is particularly rare. Got it!"
He Jiaojiao couldn't help but laugh: "You dare to say this, aren't you afraid that others won't play with you?"
"Why don't you dare?" Xu Qingmo said with a nonchalant look on his face, "I didn't play with them at first. I didn't like their sickly appearance!"
He Jiaojiao actually saw several ladies from the ladies walking along the way. It was indeed as Xu Qingmo said. They imitated the delicate one, and all of them were extremely thin. They were probably very hungry, so they looked sick. , it really doesn’t look good.
"Then why don't you imitate others and be more delicate?" He Jiaojiao joked.
"I think my beauty is enough, I don't need to pretend to be coquettish to please others!" Xu Qingmo said seriously.
He Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, and then she laughed: "Xu Qingmo, you are so annoying. You just praise yourself for your beauty, but you also scold others for pleasing men! You are so bad!"
"Hey, I'm talking about pleasing people, not men!" Xu Qingmo snorted, "You slander me!"
He Jiaojiao was stunned for a long time, and then she smiled even more happily.
Xu Qingmo ignored her and picked out the jewelry he liked, but when he picked up a jade hairpin, he heard a taunt from behind: "Hey! Isn't this the prince of Yongchang Houfu?"
