Uncle Xia's footsteps were faster, and he opened the iron gate to welcome Gu Qingyi in:

"Miss, why are you free to come here today? Didn't you read on the news that you have been busy filming recently?"

"I haven't come here for a long time, I don't know how those Yulan flowers are doing, so I came to take a look." Gu Qingyi was led by Uncle Xia, walking along the flower field.

The orchids only bloom in summer, and now it's early autumn, and the purple of the orchids is gradually becoming lighter, while the scent of flowers in the air is more intense.

Uncle Xia said happily:

"Mr. Long said before that he would use orchids to study perfumes. Now that the production line has been adjusted, he just airlifted all the orchids this year. This flower field is specially reserved for seeds."

Gu Qingyi nodded, believing that the perfume newly developed by Long Xian would once again set off an upsurge in the circle of ladies.

Uncle Xia kept talking along the way, and didn't stop until Aunt Xia came. Aunt Xia greeted him warmly:
"Old man, hurry up and go to the orchard to pick some fresh fruits, and go to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables and bring them back to the manor. This is the time, the eldest lady will definitely stay for dinner."

Gu Qingyi smiled, the fruit trees and vegetables on her farm were all grown by Aunt Xia and Uncle Xia herself, so they must be very delicious.

When Gu Qingyi stepped into the village, Aunt Xia made a pot of scented tea and poured a cup for Gu Qingyi:
"Miss, how do you see that your complexion is not very good? Could it be that you have lost your temper with my uncle?"

After all, women understand women. Uncle Xia's mind is not as delicate as Aunt Xia's. Gu Qingyi said that he came to see Yu Lanhua, and Uncle Xia believed such a lame reason.

Gu Qingyi held scented tea in both hands, with a calm face:
"Don't worry, Aunt Xia, we're not arguing. In fact, I'm here this time to ask you and Uncle Xia something."

Seeing her serious expression, Aunt Xia sat down on the stone bench:

"What does Missy want to ask?"

Gu Qingyi looked around the yard. Although the yard was simple, it was clean.

The black tiles on the white walls have been specially designed to extend out the long water eaves. It is said that this yard was designed by the mother herself. Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia were also by her side very early. Aunt Xia said that she used to come with her mother often. Garden sketching to make scented tea:
"Aunt Xia, do you know Wartime Yan?"

Gu Qingyi raised her clear eyes, paying attention to the subtle changes in Aunt Xia's expression.

After Aunt Xia heard her question, her face froze obviously, and she froze for a while before her eyes were full of doubts:
"Isn't that uncle? Why did the eldest lady suddenly ask such a question?"

"I'm not asking if you recognize him now, I... I'm asking, did you know Yan during the war three years ago?
You know, I had a high fever three years ago, and I forgot many things. Recently, I remembered something. I found out that I knew him when I was a child. Aunt Xia, do you know? "

Gu Qingyi raised her hand to hold Aunt Xia's hand, with a little more eagerness on her face.

Aunt Xia's expression was obviously a little embarrassed, it should be because she is not used to lying, she didn't know how to answer for a while:

"Miss... why don't you ask my uncle this question?"

Gu Qingyi looked at her and avoided him, obviously not daring to face him, the more Aunt Xia avoided mentioning it like this, the more sure Gu Qingyi was of her thoughts.

According to the attitude of Yan and his father during the war, it is very possible that they will communicate with Uncle Xia and Aunt Xia on the same caliber.

Gu Qingyi's mind turned quickly, she withdrew her hand, and smiled:
"Yes, I should ask him this question.

Aunt Xia, this scented tea smells so good, is there any more?I'll take some back with me then. "

Aunt Xia was obviously relieved to hear that she asked for scented tea instead of asking about the past, with a smile on her face:
"Yes, yes, every year when the flowers on Zhuangzi bloom, I will dry and preserve them according to the method taught by my wife. There are many more. I will sort them out."

"Well, sorry for the trouble, Aunt Xia."

"Miss, you are welcome. Every flower and grass in this village belongs to you. Without Madam and Miss, we would not have such a peaceful and stable life."

While talking, Aunt Xia got up and went to the back room to prepare scented tea. She found a few glass jars and packed them one by one, then put the glass jars in a bag and carried them out, but found that the scented tea she had brewed earlier was still quiet. The tea was placed on the stone table without being drunk at all, and the owner of the scented tea has disappeared.

Aunt Xia's eyes panicked, and she said inwardly that she was sorry, she put down the scented tea and ran out of the courtyard in a hurry.

Gu Qingyi followed the path to the orchard, and heard Uncle Xia's happy humming from a distance.

She looked for it, and picked an orange in her hand. It was still a while before the orange was fully ripe, and the taste was a bit sour, but Gu Qingyi found that she liked the sour taste.

When she found Uncle Xia, she had already eaten half of the green orange in her hand:

"Uncle Xia, how many have you picked?"

Seeing Gu Qingyi approaching, Uncle Xia hurriedly put down the net bag in his hand, with a worried expression on his face:
"Miss, why did you come to the orchard? We haven't sprayed this place, so you have to be careful of bugs."

"It's okay, I'm immune to all poisons, haha, let me see, wow, Uncle Xia, you've picked a lot of fruits, I'll help you get them."

As soon as Gu Qingyi bent down, Uncle Xia snatched her hand before she touched the basket:
"How can I let you carry such a heavy fruit, just let me do it."

Gu Qingyi rolled her eyes wide, and said with a smile: "Then you can take it, those who have been favored by Shi Yan in the past few years will become useless."

Uncle Xia showed a simple and honest smile on his face:
"Young master must be reluctant to let you touch this thick guy. We men should do this kind of thing."

Gu Qingyi smiled even more happily:

"Now that I think about it, I haven't picked fruit with Shi Yan for a long time."

"Yeah, I haven't been here for several years. I still remember the last time the eldest lady and my uncle came to the orchard. At that time, the fruit was as big as a child's fist and it was not ripe, but the eldest lady still asked my uncle to pick a lot of unripe oranges." When I went back, I said that my uncle was going abroad, and the oranges were not for eating, but for remembrance."

Gu Qingyi bit the sour orange petal, feeling mixed feelings in her heart, and she smiled in a daze, but fortunately, Uncle Xia had a rough temper, so she didn't notice the change in her mood:
"How long ago was that, I almost don't remember."

"It was when Missy was 15 years old, my uncle told you under that tree that he liked you, and that he wanted you to be his girlfriend when you grew up, and that he would marry Missy you as his wife in the future..."

As Uncle Xia said, he pointed in the direction of the river with his hand, and a voice came out:
"Old man..."

Aunt Xia suddenly ran up to the two of them and interrupted Uncle Xia.

Uncle Xia was taken aback: "Old woman, why are you here? You are still sweating profusely. Come, let me wipe you off."

Aunt Xia opened her man's hand and looked at Gu Qingyi nervously:
"Miss, you..."

Gu Qingyi stared straight at the tree...
