Madam Sun smiled and asked again, "Then Miss Su really said that she would stay away from Uncle Xiaoguo in the future?"

Sun Qingxue pursed her lips and smiled, "That's right, she hid in her daughter's carriage, so it can be seen that she doesn't want to get entangled with Uncle Xiaoguo."

Mrs. Sun said with a smile, "Miss Su offended the Queen Mother. Even if Uncle Xiaoguo likes Miss Su, this marriage will be difficult to arrange. In addition, the emperor is interested in Ye Shizi, but Ye Shizi seems to dislike Miss Su very much. It's probably difficult. In the future, Ms. Su's marriage will be really hard to say."

Sun Qingxue suddenly said, "She will come tomorrow, if she doesn't look at her mother, if she finds that she is very good, why not..."

Mrs. Sun looked at her and laughed, "You girl, you just met her today, why did you suddenly think of this? Your brother has indeed reached the age of engagement, but this Miss Su is being watched by the empress dowager and the emperor, she is a bit troublesome Lord, even if it's very good, it's better not to think about it in a short time. Your father has been in the court and has been neutral all his life, so don't worry about getting old when you are old."

Sun Qingxue nodded, "When I saw her today, I thought she was a very nice person. Just now, I suddenly thought, Mother is right, I won't talk about it in the future."

Mrs. Sun smiled and said, "I can't go wrong if I can let you boast like this when I meet you. It's not necessarily that I won't talk about it in the future, but let's not talk about it for now. If the emperor and the queen mother can't do it, she and you If my brother really has some fate in the future, he can mention it, and that will be a matter of the future."

Sun Qingxue nodded, "Brother is so good, you have to find a good marriage for him to be worthy of him."

Mrs. Sun believed deeply that her son was of course the best.

Naturally, Su Fengnuan didn't know that she happened to break into the carriage of the prime minister's mansion and disturbed the originally calm lake in the prime minister's mansion, which caused Sun Qingxue, Sun Zeyu, and Mrs. Sun to talk about her. She just thought that Sun Qingxue was a good friend, and since Su Qing was taught by Prime Minister Sun, she gave him a big gift.

The Yuzhilan brush washer was worth five thousand gold, it was indeed a bit expensive as a gift from her, but to her, it was worth it.

After Sun Qingxue left, she didn't leave immediately, but stayed in Mobao Pavilion. The shopkeeper personally made a pot of tea for her, and she leaned against the counter to drink tea, waiting for people.

She thought that there were many people in the Yipinxiang teahouse at that time, and there were many people who knew Xu Yunchu, and the news of the eldest princess making a scene in the teahouse would probably spread soon, and it would not take long before it would reach Ye Chang's ears. He can't help but settle accounts with her.

Instead of asking him to go to the Su Manor to settle the score, it's better for her to wait here for him. If he orders someone to search, he will definitely know that she is here.

Sure enough, after she waited for a cup of tea, Ye Chang entered the Mobao Pavilion.

Seeing Ye Chang coming, the shopkeeper and the boy rushed to salute.

Ye Chang glanced casually at the shopkeeper and the boy, came to Su Fengnuan, stretched out his hand and pulled her body leaning on the counter up, and dragged her into the inner room of Mobao Pavilion.

The shopkeeper and the boy naturally didn't dare to stop him.

When he came inside, Ye Chang let go of Su Fengnuan's hand, sat on the chair casually, and said to the outside, "Make a pot of tea."

The shopkeeper quickly responded, made a pot of tea and brought it in, and asked Ye Chang cautiously, "Does your lord want anything else?"

"No more." Ye Chang shook his head.

The shopkeeper hurried out.

Ye Chang poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, looked at Su Fengnuan, and said casually, "Tell me, what's the matter with you and Xu Yunchu? Did the eldest princess chase you to the Yipinxiang teahouse?"

Seeing that he didn't seem angry, Su Fengnuan sat casually on the chair opposite him, lazily took her to the Red Pink House, and arranged for her to walk away. After leaving the Red Pink House, how did she meet Xu Yunchu on the road? He and he went to the nearest Yipinxiang teahouse to drink tea, how the eldest princess rushed in, and how she left without hiding anything.

After hearing this, Ye Chang raised his eyebrows and said, "It's really time for the carriage of the prime minister's mansion to pass by."

Su Fengnuan nodded sincerely, "I also think it's about time."

Ye Chang looked at her, "Going to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow?"

Su Fengnuan nodded again, "Sun Qingxue looks friendly, so it's okay for me to go to the prime minister's mansion. The third brother has been asked a lot by the prime minister recently. Sun Qingxue and I walk around more, and we can slowly integrate into the capital. this circle."

Ye Chang didn't take it seriously, "You can live a good life even if you don't make friends deliberately. If you don't blend in with the circle in Beijing, what's the point? You don't have to do things you don't like, and no one can do anything to you."

Su Fengnuan looked at him, amused, "Since I was a child, I have done a lot of things I like and things I don't like, and it's okay to be idle, and it's nothing to hang out with Sun Qingxue once or twice. What's more, Sun Qingxue looks very good, very well-bred, as expected of the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, very likable."

Ye Chang looked up at her, noncommittal, "I don't know about Sun Qingxue, but as far as I know, the Yuzhilan brush washer she came to Mobao Pavilion today was ordered by his brother Sun Zeyu, the first time you met You gave him such an expensive gift, and the Prime Minister's Mansion attaches great importance to etiquette, have you ever thought about what he will give you in return?"

Su Fengnuan was taken aback, "The Yuzhilan brush wash ordered by Sun Zeyu?" After saying that, she raised her eyebrows, "Sun Qingxue never said that."

Ye Chang looked at her, "Even if she said so, you won't give it away?"

Su Fengnuan thought for a while, then shook his head, "The left and right are Chengsun Qingxue's love, whoever decides it is the prime minister's mansion, it's okay if you give it away." After a pause, he said, "I didn't expect the prime minister to give it away The government wants to return the gift to me."

Ye Chang glanced at her, took another sip of water, and said casually, "You have been used to being casual since you were young, and you are used to being informal in the world, but in the capital, reciprocity is human." After finishing speaking, he said, "If I Your guess is right, the gift Sun Qingxue will give you tomorrow should be a twelve-bone jade fan crafted by Zhang Fengshan."

Su Fengnuan asked curiously, "How did you guess?"

Ye Chang looked at her, "The prime minister's mansion is a clear source of poetry and rites in the court. The children in the mansion have always studied civil affairs, and Sun Zeyu only learned some self-defense skills. The prime minister's mansion once had a kindness with Qiaoshou Zhang, so Qiaoshou Zhang created it." A twelve-bone jade fan was given to Sun Zeyu. The jade fan is considered a weapon, and bone nails can be installed in it. When the mechanism is turned on, it can be used as a hidden weapon for self-defense. The brush washer was a gift from you, because you love martial arts, the Sun Mansion really didn’t have any weapon that could be given back to you as a gift comparable to the value of Yuzhilan’s brush wash, except for the jade fan in Sun Zeyu’s hand. So, Sun Zeyu After thinking about it, even if you like the jade fan, you will probably give it to her sister as a gift to you."

Su Feng warmly sighed, "No way? Can you really guess right?"

Ye Chang snorted softly, "If you don't believe me, just watch tomorrow."

Su Fengnuan scratched his head, "Then if you are right, should I accept it or not?" After saying that, he felt a little regretful, "If I had known it would be such a trouble, I would not have given it away."

Ye Chang put down the teacup and said solemnly to her, "Of course you can't take it, that's what Sun Zeyu loves, how can you take away someone's love?" After saying that, he said, "If you take the one with twelve bones Jade fan, doesn’t it mean that you gave him Yuzhilan brush wash, and he gave you the twelve-bone jade fan, which is a private gift? What kind of words!”

Su Fengnuan choked when he heard the words, and was immediately speechless.

She just sent a gift, but when it came to him, it turned into a private gift

Su Fengnuan looked at Ye Chang and saw that he was looking at her with a tenth of seriousness, she said helplessly, "Then tell me, how should I refuse? When I gave the Yuzhilan brush wash to others, I blocked the conversation, Said that the brush is a dead thing, people are alive, you have to come and go with people frequently, and said that if she refused me when she saw a foreigner, I would have the cheek to approach her in the future. If she took what I said the other way around Block me, can I still refuse?"

Ye Chang looked at her with an unfriendly expression, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Now you know you can't give gifts casually?"

Su Fengnuan looked at him speechlessly, she really didn't expect it to be so complicated, she accepted the lesson and nodded sincerely.

Ye Chang saw that she was so obedient, with a look of remorse, and in a better mood, he gave her advice, "You tell Sun Qingxue the truth, and you don't accept private gifts. If she really wants to return the courtesy, let her play a song for you." She is well-known for being good at the piano. It is extremely difficult to get Miss Sun to sing a song, except for the prime minister's own people, only the emperor, empress, and queen mother in the palace can make her play the piano."

Su Fengnuan recalled Sun Qingxue's evaluation of "the sound of the wind from the clouds knows the elegance, and the phoenix flies from the jade fingers", and immediately asked, "Is this possible?"

"Yes." Ye Chang nodded, "Of course she knows that his brother loves the twelve-bone jade fan very much, so I gave it to you as a gift because the Prime Minister's Mansion has nothing else to choose, but there is a second chance to share it." If you let her play the piano as a return gift, it will be regarded as a compliment to her piano skills, and she will naturally be happy, and will want to have a deeper friendship with you in the future. It can be regarded as a way to kill two birds with one stone."

Su Fengnuan looked at him, "Why kill two birds with one stone? This is not the same thing? I gave her a gift because I wanted to have a deep friendship with her."

Ye Chang glanced at her, "Isn't it a big deal to cut off the peach blossoms by the way?"

Su Fengnuan burst out laughing, "Sun Zeyu and I have never seen each other before, what kind of peach blossom?"

Ye Chang snorted softly, "Prevent trouble before it happens."

Su Fengnuan choked and was completely silent.

Ye Chang drank another cup of tea, stood up, and said to her, "I still have to go to the Ministry of Punishment. Don't wander around outside today, go home by yourself."

Before Su Fengnuan agreed, Ye Chang walked out of the room and left the Mobao Pavilion.

When Su Fengnuan followed out slowly, he had already disappeared. Standing at the door of Mobao Pavilion, she remembered what he had said before and after, and laughed angrily. This person is really... a bunch of black hearts in his stomach!
