"Yes." Several other girls responded.

The old lady took this opportunity to let the sisters move around more, blaming Zhou Jiaqing for deliberately alienating other sisters a few days ago.

"It's also my fault that my body and bones are not up to par, which delayed my grandmother's wishes." Zhou Jiaqing replied in a nonchalant manner.

The old lady asked her to move around more, but she was a patient, her body was not fully recovered yet, and she was given a killer drug. How could she move around?

The old lady looked a little embarrassed, but she recovered after a moment and said calmly: "The second girl won the first place. This is a happy event. Aunt Zhou, go and get the Ganoderma bamboo-pattern hosta and the flying flower-dot green fan and give them to the second girl. "

Aunt Zhou responded, turned around and went to the inner room to take out these two things and handed them to Chuntao. She said to Zhou Jiaqing: "Second Miss is so lucky. This is the old lady's wish."

Zhou Jiaqing glanced at the reward Chuntao received in his hand, then looked at the old lady on the main seat, and said calmly: "Qing'er thanked my grandmother."

He is not a person of the same heart, so long as he can get over it on the surface, it is difficult for Zhou Jiaqing to pretend to be intimate with the old lady.

"Second Aunt gave this to you. Congratulations on winning the first prize. I hope Qing'er won't dislike it." Li Yaxuan's smile became brighter and she took out a rosewood crystal jade bracelet from her wrist.

Zhou Jiahua was already jealous when he saw what the old lady had given her. When he saw Li Yaxuan's bracelet, he couldn't help but be jealous and said, "Grandma and mother really favor the second sister."

Zhou Jiayun was a little surprised by her mother's generosity. This bracelet can be said to be her mother's favorite and most expensive jewelry.

"Third girl, don't mess around. Qing'er deserves this. If you take first place next year, your grandmother and second aunt will also reward you." Li Yaxuan was not angry and said with a smile.

Just when Li Yaxuan thought of King Qi and Zhou Jiaqing, she couldn't hide the gloating in her smile, and she was a little too happy.

No matter how beautifully Zhou Jiaqing dressed up today, how outstanding he was in the exam, even if he changed his previous dull and irritable image and became popular, so what, as soon as he entered Prince Qi's palace, his purgatory life would begin.

Li Yaxuan didn't care about her previous glory, so she just gave it to her. After all, this was one of the few happy times for Zhou Jiaqing. There would be more hardships waiting for her in the future...

The old lady was also surprised. Li Yaxuan looked at Li Yaxuan suspiciously as if she were a different person today. Is there any happy event that she doesn't know about?

"Qing'er's performance on the stage today was particularly outstanding, and she will definitely be favored by many aristocratic families. Now look at our Qing'er's success and talent, the threshold of our Hou family will soon be crossed in the future. "Li Yaxuan explained to the old lady tactfully.

"Indeed." Zhou Jiahua covered his mouth and laughed, nodded in agreement: "Second Aunt must choose someone of high status for Second Sister, who can be worthy of Second Sister's talent and name."

The old lady also understood that Li Yaxuan wanted to take advantage of the absence of Marquis Jingan to arrange the marriage of the second girl, and the other party should be a noble... trash?

It's not surprising that the old lady guessed like this. If Li Yaxuan chooses a husband for Zhou Jiaqing, they must be a good match in terms of status, but it's strange that she can find a good family for Zhou Jiaqing.

"It's too early for Second Aunt to say this. Father hasn't mentioned the marriage of eldest sister yet, so naturally I, the younger sister, can't go overboard." Zhou Jiaqing looked calm and relaxed, but in Li Yaxuan's eyes, she said, I'm afraid I don't know how powerful King Qi is.

"When you meet the right person, the order of age doesn't matter." Li Yaxuan explained with a smile.

"What the second aunt said is that I am not the only woman in the Hou family. The third and fourth sisters are also very good. Maybe many people think they are good today. Second aunt, don't you think so?" Zhou Jiaqing said softly. asked rhetorically.

Li Yaxuan's expression paused, but Zhou Jiaqing's expressionless eyes seemed to see through her, right into her heart.

Li Yaxuan hurriedly shook away these ridiculous thoughts from her mind. Although Zhou Jiaqing should not be underestimated today, he was still a child and was far behind her.

Now that the Marquis of Jing'an is not here, and her maternal grandfather's house is so far away, how can she, a woman, resist as soon as King Qi opens his mouth?

Isn't it better to just flatten and round it by yourself in the Marquis Mansion and send it to King Qi?

Zhou Jiaqing's words shocked Zhou Jiahua and Zhou Jiayun, and their smiles became a little stiff.

The two of them knew that the Hou Mansion was going to give birth to a Princess Qi. No matter how good the name Princess Qi sounded, what was the use?

King Qi is ugly and disabled, but he is old enough to be a father. The key is that King Qi is resentful of the former Princess Qi. They don't know how she was tortured to death after entering Prince Qi's palace. They don't want this name.

"Hey, we are here to congratulate the second sister for winning first place. How come we are talking about this? If we really talk about age, I am the eldest among us." Qin Xingyue stepped forward and walked to Zhou Jiaqing's side. laughed.

She could see Li Yaxuan's thoughts now. She couldn't let Zhou Jiaqing be snatched away by King Qi without an order from above. Qin Xingyue would not look down on a mere King Qi.

"Look, I only care about being happy for Qing'er, but I have ignored Miss Yue." Li Yaxuan took Qin Xingyue's hand, patted it and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Miss Yue, if there is a suitable family, the second aunt will definitely help her." You make the decision.”

Qin Xingyue lowered her head and said shyly: "Thank you, Second Aunt. I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first."

After saying that, he hurriedly said goodbye to the old lady and Li Yaxuan, and ran out. It seemed that he was too shy to escape.

"Look, we are all a family, so this is embarrassing." Li Yaxuan said with a smile on her face, "You guys have really worked hard on today's exam, so go back and rest. I'll chat with my mother here."

The remaining people responded and left Ronghua Residence one after another.

After a while, Nanny Zhou came in to report that all the ladies had gone back. Only then did Mrs. Zhou at the main seat ask, "Who is that person?"

"King Qi."

"what happened?"

"I heard that Qing'er looks a lot like the late Princess Qi. This news was known by King Qi. Today he also saw Qing'er's talent, so he moved his heart to accept the concubine." Li Yaxuan sat down and always had a smile on her face. meaning.

If she hadn't known about King Qi's character, she would have really thought that she was happy for Zhou Jiaqing.

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's expression darkened, and Grandma Zhou was also startled.

They definitely don't expect a big house in their prosperous residence, but no matter how unhappy they are, they have done their best to save face and make it difficult for people to make mistakes. Otherwise, is the Marquis of Jing'an a fool who stepped forward to honor the old lady?

A person like King Qi who behaves evilly and like a devil must never talk to the second girl. His intention is too obvious.
