The plan of the Qin family

  "Qing Luan, these flowers were bestowed by the palace's noble ladies. Don't they look nice?" Qin Sang said with a smile, pointing at several pots of purple orchids.

  The green phoenix nodded and praised: "It's really good-looking." After all, this is the territory of the Qin family, and it's also the maternal grandmother's hometown, so it's time to give face.

  "It's so sunny, let's go sit in the pavilion up front." Qin Cai was the oldest among several people, and her lovely face had a few points of impatience, especially when looking at Qing Luan, she always carried a few points of hostility, which made Qing Luan very puzzled.

  It was the first time she had met Qin's fourth daughter, and she hadn't offended her either. Why did she look at her with disapproval? Qing Luan was puzzled in her heart, but she also didn't have the interest to investigate further. After all, there wasn't much of a relationship between their families even if they were compared.

  Wei Qingyu smiled and stepped forward, saying: "I have some cooling oil here, would Fourth Aunt like to use some?" She had long felt stifled. Her mother had told her to come to the Qin family and make sure to get on the good side of the mistress of the house, but Madame Qian was completely ignoring her, only having eyes for Wei Qingyu. Now that she had discovered that Fourth Miss Qin didn't like Wei Qingyu, she naturally wanted to hurry up and curry favor with her.

  Qin Cai glanced at Wei Qing and coldly smiled: "I don't easily use other people's things."

  One sentence made Qing's face turn pale. The green phoenixes seemed unaware of anything and walked ahead.

  The garden of the Qin family looks like it's been carefully tended, but every detail exudes a sense of showiness, and even Qin Cai's body language gives off an air of arrogance. The Qin family is a typical example of "one person achieving success and bringing prosperity to their entire household", but this kind of behavior can't help but make other prominent families look down on them.

  A group of people arrived at Lake Heart Pavilion, a place built by the water which was quite cool.

  The maidservants had served tea and refreshments, but Qin Sang still lingered around Qing Luan, while Qin Bao reluctantly sat down beside her at the urging of his sister's gaze. Wei Qingyu and Wei Qingyan naturally stuck together, and several times they tried to go over and chat with the Qin sisters, only to be coldly dismissed each time. Wei Qingyan's temper was already not good, and for a moment she couldn't hold back her embarrassment.

  It was Wei Xiner alone who, although ignored by everyone else, was appreciating the scenery on the lake with a carefree and contented expression.

  The atmosphere in the pavilion was strange, but there was no major conflict.

  At this moment, a painted barge floated over the lake, and the voice of a young man's loud and boastful talk came from above.

  Qing Luan slightly raised an eyebrow and looked at Qin Sang sitting beside her.

  Boys and girls at the age of seven should sit separately, this is the backyard of the Qin family, but since there are so many girls here, boys shouldn't be allowed in, even if the young master of the Qin family is on that boat, it's still unreasonable to say it out loud, unless the Qin family has other plans.

  Weiqing Yu and Weiqing Yuan were no longer as calm as Qing Luan, they stood up with some anxiety.

  "Fourth Aunt, why don't we avoid them?" Qing Yu's face turned slightly red as she glanced at the approaching pleasure boat, and suggested in a low voice.

  "No need, the one above is my fifth brother and also my elder nephew, who is Sangsang's older brother. They are all relatives from our own family, so there's no need to avoid anything." Qin refused, her gaze swept over Qingyan, seeing that she was calm, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. What's the big deal about being the eldest daughter of the Weiyuan Marquis' manor? She's still just a wooden person. Matching her with our own elder nephew is really a waste for him.

  Everyone at home said so, Qingyu naturally didn't want to say anything else. When she heard that the person on the painted barge was Qin Sang's younger brother, she became curious again. After all, Qin Feng, who was only 14 years old, had a reputation in the capital for his talent and character. Empress Hui especially liked this nephew of hers. Once when he was summoned to the palace, he happened to meet the Emperor, who was so pleased with Qin Feng's demeanor that he bestowed upon him the four characters "warm and refined like jade".
