Mrs. Xie thought about Zhu Lanxin's matter and sighed secretly in her heart.
Just don’t mention it.
"I have nothing to do. I came to ask the princess for advice on chess skills."
Su Wan said with a smile: "It's easy to say, thank you Madam for inviting me."
So the two people moved to the side hall and sat down on the wooden couch next to the window. Su Wan asked Xiao Sang to take out the chessboard, and then he and Mrs. Xie held black stones and white stones and started playing chess.
Mrs. Xie is good at chess, although she is not as good as someone who is good at it, but it is rare. Su Wan learned a lot from playing chess with her.
She had played with Li Lin on weekdays, but their chess skills were far different. If he hadn't secretly asked her to teach her moves, or he would have died early and been reborn, it would have been a bit boring.
Mrs. Xie also likes to play chess with Su Wan. Su Wan improves quickly and occasionally has some fantastic ideas. Although his chess skills are not as good as hers, she will lose if she is not careful. Now the two are almost equally matched.
No, as soon as she learned that Su Wan had entered the city, Mrs. Xie came over to play chess with Su Wan.
Occasionally, Mrs. Xie would talk to Su Wan about the affairs of various families in Guiyan City. She regarded Su Wan as a junior and thought that Su Wan would live in Guiyan City for a long time in the future, so she also let her know Some people and things in Guiyan City, so as not to know how to deal with them in the future.
Su Wan also respected her, moved around more, and had a particularly good relationship with her.
"The second wife of the Sun family still doesn't know that you are here in Guiyan City. If she does, she may come to visit her in the future. When you see her, if she asks for something and she is not happy, just refuse."
Su Wan was a little confused, and then heard Mrs. Come to borrow books."
"If you are willing to lend her money, then borrow it. If you are not willing, then refuse it. But if you are not willing, she may come to your door every day to ask for money, which is also a bit annoying."
Zhu Lanxin has an indomitable spirit when it comes to borrowing books. If you don't agree, she will keep coming to ask for help until you agree, which is very annoying.
The most important thing is...
"She also cherishes books very much, but once they are lent to her, she will regard them as one of her collections, and it will not be easy to get them back."
Su Wan was stunned when he heard this: "Is there such a thing?"
This is not your thing, but you want to take it for yourself?
"So she is a bookworm. She is extremely obsessed with books, as if she is crazy." Mrs. Xie sighed. It was precisely because of this that many ladies' books in Guiyan City fell into her hands and she could not take them out. The Sun family paid for the incident, which made many people dissatisfied with her.
"If she falls in love with you and doesn't want to borrow the book, be sure to hide it, lest she take it away."
Su Wan came to his senses, nodded and said, "Thank you madam for reminding me, I'll note it down."
"But even if she wants to keep your books, she has to see if the Sun family has the ability."
Su Wan had a lot of unique books in his hands, and even if he picked out one at random, it would be worth a lot of money. If the Sun family wanted to show off, they would not forcefully take other people's books. Can't afford a few copies.
Moreover, Zhu Lanxin went crazy because of the books, but the Sun family couldn't let her keep Su Wan's books by force and anger Su Wan.
"But it's best not to let Zhu Lanxin see it, lest if you don't give it to her later, she'll be crazy and say some random things to offend people."
Su Wan nodded and made a note of this in his mind.
Jingpingyuan has a lot of books, one is the only one in Su Wan's hands, the other is Li Lin's various books, and even the volumes that Li Lin sent to her later.
After these files were delivered, the door of the main study room was locked. Li Lin and Su Wan cleaned it themselves on weekdays, and only two of them had the key.
But precisely because of this, Jingpingyuan no longer had a place to store books. She was thinking of setting up another study room to put some common books about imperial examinations or scripts. If Mrs. Sun Er came here in the future, , so as to fool her.
And these books are also ready-made. Li Lin tried to take the imperial examination before, so he has a lot of books on this subject. The book is hers. After buying it, she put it aside after reading it and tidied up a room. Just put the house in order.
Su Wan and Mrs. Xie played two games of chess, and then chatted with everyone for a while. Seeing that the time was almost up, they took people to Ji's house.
It has only been five months since Ji Yunpu came back to Yancheng. He has not met many people, so there are not many people here, and there are even fewer female relatives. Moreover, since the Ji family has no hostess, no one will entertain them when they come. Won't come.
Therefore, the only female relatives were Su Wan, the Zhou family, the Song family, and Shi Hui Hua Shi Huiluan. They sat down and chatted in the pavilion in the garden, and the Song family's envious mind was twisted.
"This yard is really beautiful. It's really big. There are several yards. It will be enough to raise a few sons and marry wives in the future."
"Hui Hua, is it true that Mr. Ji doesn't have any other young masters who are close to you? Now you have hit your luck and are going to be engaged to Mr. Ji. Our Hui Luan hasn't settled down yet."
"You are sisters after all. Once you have a good life, don't forget her!"
Zhou was tired of hearing these words, and the expression on her face didn't change at all. She just pretended to hear them. Shi Huihua was a little annoyed. Just as he was about to say something, Shi Huiluan suddenly stood up.
Shi Huiluan was so angry that his face turned red: "Mom, I told you not to ask about this kind of thing again, but you just don't listen. What's the big deal!"
Mrs. Song only wanted her daughter to marry high and fly to the branches to become a noble lady. She was just a person of that status. It was difficult for village women like them to get in touch with her. She had previously thought of choosing a promising one from Shiqiao Academy, but now Shiqiao Hui Hua was going to marry Ji Yunpu by chance, so she naturally didn't want to miss such an opportunity.
However, Shi Huiluan was raised to be arrogant and arrogant. She had never bowed her head to please even Su Wan, let alone Shi Huihua, a cousin she had disliked since she was a child. Every time she heard Mrs. Song say such words, she would She almost felt a surge of energy rising from the bottom of her heart.
Mrs. Song's face was a little embarrassed when she heard this: "You kid, what are you talking about? Why don't you sit down quickly."
"I won't sit down!" Shi Huiluan snorted angrily, "Are you just marrying a clan master who was kicked out of the house? What's so great about it? I've heard that the people who hung out with him before were all a bunch of dandies. "
"Besides just eating and waiting to die, there is no ability at all. This kind of person is what Shi Huihua likes, but I don't like him!"
Shi Huihua's face turned green at that moment: "Shi Huiluan, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute. If you don't want to stay here, get out of here!"
Shi Huiluan turned to her and snorted: "Get out of here, do you think I am willing to stay here? Who cares!"
