Chapter 75: foregone conclusion

"The good place is good for the Miao, and the good for the house is good for the people. When my great-grandfather was alive, he believed in these Feng Shui techniques." Ren Yaoqi replied quietly.
"Oh? Did Miss Five believe these too?" Han Yunqian smiled slightly and turned his face sideways.
"Don't you believe Young Master Han?"
Han Yunqian was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking.
Ren Yaoqi looked at his back from behind, Han Yunqian was like a bamboo, his back was straight, and he had a quiet and heavy temperament when he was not speaking.
After a while, he slowly said: "My grandfather doesn't believe this. I remember that the ancestral house in Jizhou was going to be renovated a few years ago. The uncles in the clan said to find a Feng Shui master to see it. Refused."
"I don't really believe this either." Ren Yaoqi smiled slightly. "This house is not the ancestral house of the Ren family. It was bought by my great-grandfather from a wealthy family at the time. The original owner of the house moved south because of hiding from the Liao people. If this feng shui is really effective, shouldn't they sit at home and be safe? Why do they need to move their family south."
Han Yunqian looked at Ren Yaoqi, because his face was light, Ren Yaoqi couldn't see his expression.
After a while he smiled, nodded in agreement: "Miss Fifth makes sense."
"I heard that the Han family has settled in Jizhou for generations?" Ren Yaoqi asked casually.
"This is recorded in the Han family's genealogy." Han Yunqian said gently and honestly.
"I have never been to Jizhou. I don’t know the living habits of people in Jizhou are far from those of us in Yanzhou. But I see you and Sister You are not much different from us in Yanzhou. You were born in Yanzhou in your family. People?"
When Han Yunqian heard the words, he lowered his head and thought for a while, smiled and replied: "No. But my grandfather's ancestral home seems to be near Yanzhou, but after a few decades, relatives here in Yanzhou have long been missing. Maybe it has moved south too. It is said that when Yanbei was in turmoil, Yanzhou was also full of rooms."
Ren Yaoqi was thinking that Han Yunqian's answer really didn't have any flaws. Even his grandfather occasionally brought out some Yanzhou accent when he spoke.
"Is Miss Fifth come to visit the garden?" Han Yunqian asked with a smile looking at Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi said casually: "I passed by the veranda and saw someone in this garden. The back looks a bit like my second cousin in the East Mansion. I originally wanted to come to say hello, but I didn't want to but it was you."
Ren Yilin, the concubine of the second master of the East House, was about the same height as Han Yunqian, and looked a bit similar from the back.
Han Yunqian laughed and looked at Ren Yaoqi and said, "So that's the case, but Yun Qian was abrupt, and asked Miss Wu to make atonement."
At this time, there seemed to be the sound of several people's footsteps. Ren Yaoqi turned around and saw Ren Yiyan and Ren Yihong approaching here, and Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaoting and Han You were behind them.
"Fifth Sister, when did you come? I was just trying to send someone to ask you and Eighth Sister to come together." Ren Yiyan saw Ren Yaoqi and Han Yunqian for a moment, then smiled.
Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaoting, and Han You also saw Ren Yaoqi. Ren Yaoting's gaze stopped for a long time on Ren Yaoqi and Han Yunqian. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "Fifth sister came out to visit the garden? What a coincidence."
Ren Yaohua said lightly to Ren Yaoqi: "Didn't the maid tell you, let you wait in the pavilion in front?"
The meaning of this is that she asked Ren Yaoqi to come.
Ren Yaoting glanced at Ren Yaohua suspiciously, and then at the upright Ren Yaoqi, his face looked better.
Han Yunqian smiled and said: "I heard someone coming and thought it was Brother Yiyan, so I came to say hello, but I didn't want to but met Miss Fifth. I was rude."
Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi and turned his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ren Yaoqi walked to them and asked Ren Yaoting with a smile: "When did the Seventh Sister come here?"
"I heard that Sister You was here, and my mother went to Jizhou again because of the second brother's marriage, so I came to see too." Ren Yaoting turned his head and smiled at Han You.
"The second aunt went to Jizhou?" Ren Yaoqi was slightly surprised.
"Well, I went there early today, and it is estimated that it will take two days to come back." Ren Yaoting said casually.
Ren Yaoting said that the second wife went to Jizhou for the marriage of his concubine Ren Yilin, but Ren Yaoqi knew that the second wife was actually going to divorce.
The second wife Su is a perfect mistress in the eyes of outsiders. She manages the family well, is gentle and humble, and is not jealous. The concubines of the second master of the East House were all well-behaved, and there were very few troubles. The two concubines, Ren Yilin and Ren Yixin, also respected this aunt.
So it's not surprising that she will run for the concubine's marriage.
However, what Ren Yaoqi was thinking about was, I wonder if the girl from Liu Ju's family in this life will not be able to commit suicide because of her divorce.
"The spring is just right now, how about going to the pavilion to sit in?" Ren Yiyan suggested.
"Sister Ting said she wanted to play the piano for us. It's just right to go to Tingzhong." Han You said happily.
Ren Yaoting pursed his lips: "I'm here to show my ugliness, why do you shout so loudly that everyone knows?"
Han You blinked, "I'll hear it all in a while anyway."
"It's so good, I will let people go back to get the piano." Ren Yiyan laughed.
"I have asked the maid to go back and marry." Ren Yaoting said hurriedly.
She still came prepared.
Several people walked into the pavilion together.
Ren Yaoqi found out that Ren Yaoyin who was supposed to have had not come. Then he asked.
Ren Yiyan said: "The fourth sister caught a cold, and her voice was a little dumb. She said she would commit crimes with Gongzi and Miss Han next time."
As expected, Ren Yaoting's qin was quickly picked up. She burned the incense to clean her hands, sat in court, and played the yao qin with her bare hands.
In all fairness, Ren Yaoting's piano is pretty good, no wonder she dared to show her ugliness. Everyone sat or stood, listening quietly.
Han Yunqian was originally standing facing the lotus pond, and suddenly "Zhengzhengzheng" Han Yunqian frowned and looked back, but he happened to meet the affectionate eyes of Ren Yaoting who was playing the piano.
Han You suddenly "pushed" a smile. Seeing everyone looking at her, she was a little embarrassed and said: "My brother and sister Ting said that his ears are so powerful that he can hear it as long as there is a little error in the piano sound. Ting Sister didn’t believe me, so she just tried it. Look, I’m right? He won’t pay attention if you play well. If you make a mistake, he will frown and look over."
Everyone present was proficient in rhythm and recalled that it seemed that Ren Yaoting had actually played a wrong tone just now. Although it was not obvious, Han Yunqian really noticed it immediately.
But this is what makes people think of a sentence: "The song is wrong, Zhou Langgu."
According to the legend, this Zhou Lang is as proficient in rhythm as Han Yunqian, even if he is drunk, he can immediately detect the mistake of the person playing the piano, and then he looks at the person who has made the mistake and smiles slightly at her. There used to be many women who liked him deliberately playing the wrong sound, just to attract Zhou Lang's attention.
Is Ren Yaoting a blatant suggestion that she is interested in Han Yunqian?
Han You had a simple heart, and she didn't expect so much at first, but when she saw that the faces of everyone were a little strange, she realized after thinking about it, her face was a little embarrassed.
Still, Ren Yiyan smiled gently to relieve Han You: "It turns out that Brother Han also has this problem? My third brother also likes rhythm. When he listens to the piano another day, I will definitely try it. If he can't hear it, I will The joke is arty."
Ren Yiyan, the eldest brother, has a elder brother's demeanor on weekdays. He is also more popular among sisters and brothers, so everyone smiled face-to-face.
Han Yunqian didn't seem to notice anything, he smiled faintly, gentle and polite, but his eyes were calm.
Just saying this, a maid ran over and said to Ren Yaoqi after the ceremony: "Miss Fifth, Master Three said that you should go to Nuan Pavilion."
The maid said that the floor heating pavilion was the last time Han Yunqian played against Ren Shimin and Ren Yijun. In the northwest corner of this garden, it is not too far from the pavilion in the lake.
"When did Uncle San come back?" Ren Yiyan asked in surprise.
The maid said: "Not long after the third master came to Nuange, I heard that several young masters were here, so she asked the slaves and maidservants to come and invite the fifth to go over."
Ren Yaoqi got up, accused everyone, and followed the maid to the Northwest Di Nuan Pavilion.
As soon as Ren Yaoqi entered, he saw Ren Shimin standing in front of the window with his hands on his back. When she saw her in, he turned his head and looked: "Come and play a few games with Daddy."
Ren Yaoqi sat behind Ren Shimin in front of the chessboard before raising his eyebrows and asked: "Daddy asked me to come here to play chess?"
Ren Shimin glanced at Ren Yaoqi, suddenly sighed, and said helplessly: "I just returned from the outer courtyard. Your grandfather and Han Yunqian's father are discussing the marriage of the Ren Han family."
Ren Yaoqi was surprised, why is it so fast?
Seeing Ren Yaoqi's expression, Ren Shimin couldn't help but shook his head: "I heard that the Yanjing family and the two families are talking smoothly. Both the Ren family and the Han family have invested a lot, so..."
So continue a marriage to strengthen the relationship between the two?
Ren Yaoqi frowned.
Perhaps she has a prejudice against the Han family. Why does she feel that the Han family urgently needs a marriage to gain Ren Jiadi's trust?
"Your grandfather called me over just now. According to what he said, the person appointed by the two families should be your sister Yaohua."
Ren Yaoqi's face grew ugly.
The marriage contract came too soon, and she didn't have time to find a way to stop it. Originally thought that in this life without the entanglement of Ren Shimin and Ren Yijun, it would take a while for the Han family and the Ren family to get married.
After all, the Han family today is considered to be the first time to visit for this matter.
Is this the so-called destiny?
"No one can change your grandfather's decision. I tentatively asked other Ren's daughters before? He said he had arrangements, and then he sent me out."
All arrangements? Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but sneer.
I really want to listen to his arrangements, none of them will end well.
"This is the end of the matter, you should stay away from Han Yunqian in the future." Ren Shimin said suddenly and solemnly.
I came back late in recent days and updated too late.
very sorry!
