Seeing Sheng Changfeng coming, Li Hao knew that his guess was good. This polo match was indeed the one where Minglan played.
When Sheng Changfeng approached, he saw Li Hao and said, "It turns out that my cousin is also here today, and he even sat with Brother Gu."
After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "I'll come over and take a look when I have time today." Then he asked, "My cousin came here alone today."
Sheng Changfeng replied: "No, today I came with the eldest lady and three younger sisters." Then he turned back and pointed, "Well, aren't they over there?"
Li Hao followed his fingers and saw that Ming Lan, Mo Lan and Mrs. Wang were indeed there, but Ru Lan didn't see them. When I looked at them again, I happened to see them looking towards Li Hao, and they probably saw Li Hao too.
Li Hao then said: "Since Mrs. Wang is here, I should go over to pay her respects, so I'll excuse you now."
Gu Tingye said casually: "It doesn't matter, you can go over."
Then Li Hao got up and walked over, and then Ouyang Fa also got up to say goodbye and walked out with Li Hao. Then Li Hao asked: "Brother Bo and brother, why don't you come with me too?"
Ouyang Fa said: "That's no need. I'll go back to my mother's place. You can go back when you're done here." After that, he walked towards his shed.
When Li Hao arrived, he saw Mrs. Wang talking to Mrs. Wu. However, when Ming Lan saw Li Hao approaching, she did not leave to look for Yu Yanran, but stood there waiting with Mo Lan. After Li Hao arrived, Minglan said, "I didn't expect that my cousin would be free to come to the polo club today. When did he come?"
Li Hao replied: "I just came here not long ago. I happened to play a lot in Yangzhou. I haven't been to the polo ground since I came to Bianjing. This time I came here normally to see the excitement. Cousin Chang Feng just came over and followed me. He said that you are all here today, so he came over to say hello." Then he pretended to ask: "By the way, didn't cousin Rulan say she was here? Why didn't you see me?"
Just when Ming Lan was about to reply, she heard Mo Lan suddenly say in a strange and sinister tone: "Isn't it the official's break today? My father and second brother are both in the yamen on official business. Why does cousin Li Hao have so much free time?"
As soon as these words came out, Minglan and Mrs. Wang who were talking above them frowned, and Mrs. Wang was about to reprimand.
Li Hao then answered and said: "I serve in Kaifeng Prefecture, and the security of Bianjing City is within my jurisdiction. This polo ground is still the boundary of my Kaifeng Prefecture, so I came to the polo ground today to have a look. I guess there is nothing wrong with it, maybe Cousin Molan thinks there is something wrong."
Mo Lan still wanted to answer, but Mrs. Wang said: "Of course there is nothing wrong with what Brother Hao said. It is our duty. What does this girl Mo Lan know? She is just talking nonsense here. I will ask his father to take care of him when he gets back." Talk to her." Then he glared at Mo Lan and told her not to speak.
Then he asked: "Brother Hao came alone today?"
After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "That's not true. I came here with Mrs. Xue, the wife of Mr. Ouyang." Then he pointed in the direction where Mrs. Xue was.
Mrs. Wang nodded after looking at it, and then said: "Brother Hao, let's go play. If you have time, you can come over and talk."
After hearing this, Li Hao agreed and left. However, he thought that he didn't have many acquaintances here, and he didn't want to look back at Tingye. In addition, in order to make it easier for Minglan to find someone when he arrived, he simply went back to Mrs. Xue. Went inside the shed.
After Li Hao left, Minglan told Mrs. Wang that Yanran was there, and then was sent to find Yu Yanran.
Mrs. Wang and Mo Lan followed Mrs. Wu to her shed. On the way, Mrs. Wu asked, "I never thought that this year's flower hunter would be related to your Sheng family."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang replied directly: "Brother Hao's mother is Minglan's aunt, so the two families are related."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wu was curious that Tan Hualang's aunt was actually a concubine, but she didn't feel comfortable asking anything.
After sending Mrs. Wang to Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wu went straight to Mrs. Xue. By this time, Li Hao and Ouyang Fa had already returned.
After Mrs. Wu came and sat down, she took Mrs. Xue and started talking again. At this time, Rong Feiyan arrived, Mrs. Wu could only get up and go to greet her, and then came back after the greeting was completed. In the next time of burning incense, Mrs. Wu ran back and forth three times, and Li Li couldn't help but Hao thought to himself that it would be tiring to welcome and send off.
When another family came over, Mrs. Xue said something in Mrs. Wu's ear. Then Mrs. Wu looked at Ouyang Fa and smiled, which made Li Hao confused. Then she turned to look at Ouyang Fa, and saw that his face turned a little red, which made Li Hao very strange.
After that, Mrs. Wu stood up and went over to greet him, and then took the person to a nearby shed to sit down. After the people over there were seated, Madam Xue said, "Brother Hao, just sit here for a while. I'll take Uncle He to say hello."
Li Hao nodded in agreement, and then saw Mrs. Xue leading Ouyang Fa into the shed next door to talk. Li Hao glanced twice and vaguely saw Ouyang Fa fidgeting inside. He roughly guessed what he was doing and stopped paying attention.
Just at this moment, he heard the referee shouting below: "A new game has begun. This time, the lottery is a gold hairpin made of nine-turn silk." As soon as Li Hao heard that the plot was about to begin, he looked around the field to search for it. , finally saw Minglan and Yu Yanran standing together on the sidelines, staring at the hairpin.
Li Hao then turned his attention to the field and carefully watched the specific changes. However, things continued as usual. Minglan pulled Sheng Changfeng out and teamed up with Yu Yanran to play polo. However, it seems that Yu Yanran's polo skills are really not very good. Sheng Changfeng is lucky enough to be able to pester Yu Jiaerlang to prevent him from scoring. However, Yu Yanran can't guard the ball against Yu Yanhong, and can't grab the ball. It's really difficult to watch. It makes people anxious.
While looking at the situation here, Li Hao turned his head and looked towards Minglan, and saw that Qi Heng had come to talk next to Minglan, so he also got up and walked over, only listening as he approached. When Minglan said loudly: "I don't have one." She was probably talking about knee pads. When Qi Heng was about to speak, Li Hao said directly: "My cousin also likes to play polo, why do you shout so much?" Loud.”
As soon as these words were said, Minglan and Qi Heng's eyes immediately converged. Qi Heng saw someone coming and didn't say anything. However, it was obvious that Qi Heng's expression was a little unhappy. Of course, Li Hao didn't care. his feelings.
As for Minglan's expression at this time, she was also a little strange, but she still responded by talking: "Because Yanran is playing on the court, it is inevitable that she is paying attention."
After hearing this, Li Hao replied: "I heard the old lady mention it. My cousin has a very good relationship with the girl from the Yu family. It's normal to pay special attention to her."
Then Li Hao looked at Qi Heng, as if he had just discovered it, and said, "My young master is here too. I met him last time. This time I see him again, he is still as charming and radiant as ever."
After hearing this, Qi Heng responded somewhat coldly: "Brother Li is too complimentary. I would like to congratulate Brother Li for being named on the gold list and winning the top prize."
After hearing this, Li Hao smiled and said: "Thank you very much, young master. However, the young master is of noble birth, and with the support of Princess Pingning and the Duke of Guo, his future achievements are limitless. He will definitely be much better than me."
After hearing what Li Hao said, Minglan's expression also changed.
Next, Qi Heng didn't answer, and Li Hao also fell silent, so the place suddenly fell into silence. Fortunately, after a while, the paused bell sounded. The three of them looked and saw Yu Yanran crying and walking towards Minglan. Minglan hurried up to meet her.
Qi Heng still wanted to move forward, so Li Hao said aloud: "What are you going to do? Why don't we stay here and watch them play polo together?"
Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Qi Heng turned around and asked directly: "What exactly do you want to do?"
When Li Hao heard this, he smiled and replied: "I didn't want to do anything, I just felt that the young master was doing something inappropriate. You know how important the reputation of the girl's family is. Now the young master can't make the decision." Under such circumstances, it is better not to do things that are easily misunderstood.”
After hearing this, Qi Heng stared deeply at Li Hao and said with a cold voice: "Maybe you also like Minglan and want to compete with me."
After hearing this, Li Hao frowned and said in a low voice: "Young Master, please be careful, if you say this, you are trying to get your cousin to where you are. If others hear this, how will you let others treat her." Young Master always only thinks about himself when doing things and doesn’t think about other people’s situations.”
After hearing this, Qi Heng opened his mouth to explain, but Li Hao continued: "Do you really know what my cousin's temperament is like, and can you really do good for your cousin? Or just for your own happiness, you can indulge in whatever you do, I I think the young father-in-law should think carefully about what is really good for his cousin."
After saying this, he looked towards the polo field, and Qi Heng fell silent after hearing this.
Over there, Minglan has already stepped in for Yu Yanran.
