Chapter 72

Yijia and Xiao Song followed Zhou Chengyan to visit Mr. Kang.

Mr. Kang looks about 50 years old, with a little gray hair on his temples, but he looks very good.With a ruddy complexion and a kind smile, he does not have the official authority of a person who has been in power for many years.They just took a look at Yijia indiscriminately, and then invited them to sit down and eat.

Zhou Chengyan sat on the left side of Mr. Kang, and Xiao Song was arranged on the right side. She sat down holding Yi Wan, and Yi Jia sat on her lower head in turn.

When he looked up, he saw a person sitting opposite him.

With a dark blue straight skirt, a handsome face, and a pair of bright eyes with a slight smile, he was looking at her.But unexpectedly being looked at by her, a little unnaturalness appeared on his face.

Yijia looked away and looked at Xiao Song.

It was also the first time Xiao Song saw Kang Qikun, and like Zhou Chengyan, she was also very satisfied.Probably the parents of a daughter like Kang Qikun would be dissatisfied, right?

Xiao Song turned her head slightly, and whispered in Yijia's ear: "That's Kang Qikun."

Yijia thought of meeting him at Huxin Pavilion earlier, did he also secretly want to see her at that time?For some reason, she suddenly felt that her cheeks were hot, but she felt dissatisfied faintly in her heart.By doing this, Kang Qikun was testing her for something?To test how she will treat him, and whether she can meet the requirements of his future wife from the bottom of his heart?
To Xiao Song's and Kang Qikun's surprise, Yijia didn't blushed and lowered her head. Instead, she sat upright and raised her head to look at him indifferently.The naturalness and calmness in those eyes made the boy on the opposite side feel even more unnatural, as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

Mr. Kang was talking to Zhou Chengyan, while teasing Zhou Yiwan.

He himself has two granddaughters, but they are both old enough to get married, and the rest are concubine granddaughters, so he naturally looks down on them.So it was rare to see the lovely and lively Yiwan, but she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Kang Qikun didn't listen to a word, just ate the vegetarian food without taste, and occasionally secretly observed the girl opposite who seemed to have not seen him.

She was wearing a light yellow beige, and the cuffs of the white blouse were delicately stitched. It was a kind of flower that he couldn't name, and it circled her wrists, lining her slender and delicate hands. White and tender.And the goose-yellow beige, the nail-sized Dongzhu earrings, and the only white jade round-head carved flower hairpin on the black silk, all show the tenderness and sweetness of the girl in front of her, and because the jewelry is refreshing and the clothes are simple, it is even more impressive A very comfortable feeling.

Unlike his aunt, who has been old-fashioned since he can remember.

It's not like his father's aunts and concubine younger sisters, who are dressed in colorful clothes, and their hair is even more dazzling, and there is also that pungent fragrance powder.

She is a refreshing and clean girl who makes people feel good at first glance.

Looking at her, he suddenly regretted his previous actions.

It's a bit too aggressive, isn't she happy?

Kang Qikun himself didn't know that one day he would actually feel this up and down about a girl he met for the first time.

Although the three adults at the table have been talking, they have been paying attention to the actions of the two young people.

Seeing his grandson's hopeless appearance, Mr. Kang frowned and coughed, and said: "It's rare to come out, you young people go out after eating, don't just sit here, we still have something to say, so use it You don't need to stay here with me."

Kang Qikun was overjoyed, and was about to stand up, but he saw the girl across from him just glanced at him lightly, and then lowered his head again.His heart was in a state of ups and downs, and he had completely fallen to the bottom. He knew that Mr. Zhou must have told about himself and her, but with her appearance, did she not like him?

Or are you dissatisfied with your own actions?

Xiao Song also urged Yijia: "Don't just sit here and get bored, take Yiwan and Young Master Kang out for a walk, it's rare for you to come out, remember to ask someone to hold an umbrella for you."

Zhou Chengyan also looked over with a smile and nodded.

In front of Mr. Kang, Yijia naturally couldn't refuse, so she had to hold her sister who was blinking with big eyes, and followed Kang Qikun out of the west hall.However, she vaguely understood in her heart that the matter of the Huxin Pavilion was planned by her father, aunt, and Mr. Kang, while her younger sister, Yiwan, was just pitifully used as a prop.

The sun is shining outside, where is it suitable for walking, these adults are so happy and confused, they even forgot about this.

Yijia asked Yiwan, "Is it hot?"

Zhou Yiwan blinked her big eyes, and pouted her mouth aggrieved, "Sister, it's so hot."

Kang Qikun hurriedly pointed to a century-old tree not far away and said, "Go and sit over there, there are stone tables and benches over there."

Yijia nodded and led Yiwan over.Qiushuang and Xuezhu had been by their side all the time, and seeing Kang Qikun's appearance now, both of them felt a little embarrassed, especially Qiushuang, who used to talk to Young Master Kang so loudly.I didn't expect him to be the grandson of my master's mentor. Judging from today's situation, I'm afraid he might become the future son-in-law of the family, but I'm lucky. She offended the future son-in-law when we met for the first time today.

"Master Kang, why don't you hurry up and enjoy the cool?" Seeing that Kang Qikun didn't leave, Qiu Shuang was too busy to make up for the bad impression he had left before.

Kang Qikun glanced at her and asked, "Can your lady eat ice?"

Qiushuang nodded in confusion.

Kang Qikun asked again: "How about sweetness?"

Qiu Shuang thought of the excellent desserts made by her own lady, and nodded again, "I like sweets very much."

"Okay, go there." Kang Qikun waved his hand, turned and left.

Qiushuang felt even more baffled, rubbing her head and walked to the stone table under the old tree.

"What's the matter, have you apologized to him?" Although Yijia didn't like Qiushuang's temperament of bullying the weak and obeying the strong, she felt a little funny when she thought of her apologizing.

"No, Master Kang asked me a few questions." Qiu Shuang said.

Yijia looked at her in surprise, and asked in confusion, "Ask you a question?"

The two didn't know each other before, and they just met today for the first time, what questions can I ask?

Looking into Yijia's bright eyes, Qiushuang suddenly wondered why Kang Qikun asked those questions.She looked at Yijia and couldn't help showing a joking smile, and said softly: "Miss, Master Kang is asking me about your preferences. What do you think of him? I think the master and wife seem to be interested in him." They are all satisfied, and he seems to like you very much, will he become the future son-in-law? I offended him just now, should I apologize to him? "

As Qiushuang spoke, she approached Yijia, and Yijia poked her face with her finger without even thinking about it. "Why don't you apologize, why didn't you say it at the Huxin Pavilion just now?"

Qiu Shuang was a little twitching immediately, she made some jokes as a base, but she didn't expect that the young lady was not shy at all, but still caught her fault.She glanced at Zhou Yiwan, who was hot and sleepy, and still whispered in Yijia's ear: "But that Young Master Kang might...I offend him now, isn't it bad?"

Yijia didn't have a good impression of Kang Qikun, but naturally she didn't have any bad feelings either.

She said casually, "Just don't offend me. It's really bad if you offend me."

Qiu Shuang hurriedly smiled and said she didn't dare.

Xuezhu stood behind Zhou Yiwan, although she didn't say a word, she remembered the two people's words almost perfectly in her heart.

Kang Qikun and his servant came from a distance, he was holding a small kettle in his hand, and the servant was carrying a tray, the two walked quickly to Yijia's side, and put the tray and kettle on the stone table.

There were two plain white porcelain plates on the tray, a layer of ice was spread under the plates, and crystal clear grapes were placed on top of them.There are not too many grapes, just enough to cover the ice.There are also two small bowls with white bottoms filled with honey water and small ice cubes floating on the surface of the water, just looking at it already feels much cooler.

Kang Qikun pointed to the kettle and said, "Here is honey water with ice cubes. You can drink some to relieve the heat. And the grapes, I tasted them just now, they are not sour at all, they have been soaked in well water for a while Now, there is ice under it again, so it’s good to eat. Try it.”

He was talking about you, but his eyes only dared to look at the five-year-old Zhou Yiwan.

Seeing the unnatural tension on his face, Yijia was suddenly dazed.In the previous life, there were also people who treated her well and thoughtfully, but at that time, not only did she not care about him, but she even hated him very much.And he is a person who doesn't like to talk much, no matter how nice he is to her, he won't say a word in front of her, so she naturally ignores all his good things.

But looking at what Kang Qikun did now, she remembered many things that she didn't notice in her previous life.

When she first married into Anping Hou's Mansion, she didn't know anything about everything. At that time, Mrs. Ran Fang only wanted to suppress her, so naturally she couldn't teach her anything.Those etiquettes and rules were all taught to her bit by bit by him.

She was malnourished. Although she had a pretty face, she was obviously in a bad complexion and her body was weak.He spent a lot of money on diet prescriptions and stared at her every day.Because she loves beauty, all kinds of jewellery, brocades, clothes and satins are sent to her for free, which makes the elder sister envious of her.

She hurt her body when she was young, and every menstruation would hurt her for a day. He ignored his own body and burned charcoal in the house in the summer.The warm bag and hand stove placed on the front of her abdomen and back were also remodeled by him himself in order to make her use more comfortable.

He was obviously so sick, but as long as she felt a little unwell, he completely forgot about his body, as if he could only see her.

One after another, the things that were so invisible in the previous life are clearly replayed in front of my eyes at this moment.

Yijia thought about it, but felt sore and painful in her heart, ashamed and ashamed, tears were about to fall.
