Every day, when Liu Yanzhi returned to the estate, Huang Qiqian would prepare some snacks and help him with his practice. Every time Huang Qiaoqian came to Liu Yanzhi's study, Changgui tactfully found a reason to leave.

Liu Yanzhi and Huang Qiqian also got along well.

When Grass'er accidentally walked past the house today, and heard the laughter of the two people coming from the study, she was angered to the point of making a loud noise to interrupt their laughter.

When Huang Qiqian saw that it was Cao'er, she purposely acted more intimate with Liu Yanzhi. "Cousin, I'm tired. Come and eat a cinnamon cake." As he spoke, he took a piece and placed it next to Liu Yanzhi's mouth.

When Yao'er saw this, she went to Liu Changgui angrily.

Liu Yanzhi took a step back to keep a distance between them, before reaching out to receive the osmanthus cake. "Thank you." His eyes looked outside the door as he looked at the angry background of Yao'er. "What's wrong with her?"

The smile on Qi Qian's face darkened, then she smiled. "Who knows what happened to her? "Come, cousin, let's continue with the writing."

"Alright!" Liu Yanzhi took out her brush and began fluttering it across the paper.

The corners of Qi Qian's lips curled up as she looked at the rest of the words that had been written. A hint of a smile could be seen in her eyes.

Yao'er found Liu Changgui. He was standing in front of the willow tree, weaving willow branches.

"You are a servant of the young master, yet you came here to take care of your work instead of staying in the study room?" Do you know that your master is practicing calligraphy in the study room? How can there be such a lazy servant like you?

Liu Changgui looked at the angry grass and was confused. However, as a servant, she hated it when others said that she wouldn't serve her master and be lazy. Let go of the willow branch, and argue with the grass: "Who do you say is lazy? Who wouldn't serve their master? It was Miss Biao who asked me to come out. She said she was practicing with the young master. What has it got to do with me? "

Yao'er stared at Liu Changgui, "Are you the servant of the Second Miss or the servant of the Young Master? Who do you think you're going to listen to? "

Liu Changgui glanced at her, "If you're sick, what does it have to do with you? Is there a need for you to care about it? " He turned around and left, too lazy to bother with Yao'er.

Yao'er watched Liu Changgui leave and stomped her feet in anger. He turned around and ran back to Reflection.

When Xia Sheng saw Yao'er's unhappy expression, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What happened? Are you unhappy?"

"Second Miss is too shameless, she actually went to Young Master's study and even fed him something to eat." A lone male and a single female weren't afraid of being seen, so someone said. And that Liu Changgui, he purposely left space for them, not waiting by the side, and went to the willow tree to make willow branches for them to play with. He's a three year old child! " Yao'er was so angry that her face turned red. She panted heavily, and her small bosom rose and fell along with her.

Xia Houwu couldn't help but laugh, "Just for that! It's not worth it. Whatever they want to do! To be honest, if they could be together, I'd be free. Haha, young miss, I am not happy yet. "

"Miss … How can you be like this! Young Master is a husband and wife that has paid respects to you! " Little Grass was truly angered to death by a young miss like her.

The young miss has been thinking about this all this time, wondering what the news in the manor has turned out to be like. They were all saying that once a young miss gets married, she'll become an abandoned wife. If that Liu Yanzhi really did fall in love with Second Miss, then where would she put her face?

"All right, all right, help me copy the books! "Don't be unhappy about it." Xia Sheng tugged at Yao'er's sleeve with a pleading look on his face.

Seeing her like that, Yao'er couldn't help but laugh helplessly. She really couldn't do anything about this young miss. He then sat down obediently to accompany her in copying the books.

There really was no wall in this world that didn't leak with wind. The news that Huang Qiqian and Liu Yanzhi often spent time alone in the study spread into Old Master Huang's ears.

As for how it would reach Old Master Huang's ears, there were many different opinions. According to Yao'er's report, there were only two possibilities in Summer's analysis. One was that Old Master Huang had broken it himself, and the other was that Third Wife Zhang had pointed it out.

Even if Mrs Liu knew, she definitely wouldn't be so stupid as to tell Old Master Huang that at most, she would only educate him privately. No matter how much the servants liked to talk, they wouldn't dare to speak about their master, let alone such an ugly matter. Weren't they afraid that Old Man Huang would kill her for the sake of his daughter's face? In ancient times, it was normal for a servant to die in a large family.

Huang Qiqian knelt on the floor while Liu Yanzhi stood by the side. Old Master Huang sat in the middle while Mrs Liu and Mrs Zhang sat on both sides of him. There were only five people in the entire upper room, and the door was locked.

It was very quiet outside. The servants had all been sent to other places. No one would be able to eavesdrop on them.

Huang Zijie's face turned ashen as he tossed out a stack of papers, which floated in front of Huang Qiqian and Liu Yanzhi. "Explain it to me."

Liu Yanzhi frowned, completely befuddled. "I practiced writing!" "There's nothing special about it!"

"The words you practiced?" It's not easy to learn other words, but if you want to practice this, you have to take a look for yourself. " Huang Zijie was truly infuriated.

This was the first time Liu Yanzhi had seen her uncle so angry, so he obediently picked up the paper on the floor and started flipping through it. He could not help but feel his face darken. Even if he were to jump into the Yellow River, he would not be able to wash it off himself. "This, this, uncle, this is not something that can be read like this." I've written a lot of other words, too. and singled out these words. "

Huang Zijie had been in the government for a few years, and he had seen all sorts of people. From the looks of it, Liu Yanzhi wasn't lying, so it was only because Qi Qian had purposely left these items behind.

"Qi Qian, why are you saying those words in your room?" Huang Zijie asked with a stern expression.

Qi Qian's heart was a mess. She didn't know who had found these papers, but she clearly remembered that she had stored them well. How did it end up in his father's hands?

At this point in time, she didn't want to beat around the bush. She remembered that Huang Que had told her that she'd missed a chance to be with Liu Yanzhi in person, so her father would help him and Liu Yan, right?

It wasn't that she didn't doubt Huang Que's words, but she knew that she didn't have the mind to make things up. Thinking of this, she decided to take a gamble. It didn't matter if she won or lost, she would bear any consequences.

"Yes!" I asked my cousin to write them, and I picked them out of his practice. "I like my cousin, ever since I was young." After she finished speaking, she raised her head slightly to look at Liu Yanzhi, her eyes filled with deep emotion. She didn't believe that Liu Yanzhi had no feelings for her at all.

Liu Yanzhi stared blankly at Qi Qian. How could this be? Did he do something to make his cousin misunderstand?

Mrs Liu was immediately shocked. She absolutely did not believe that her daughter would have such a thought. He then stood up and walked over, "QI Qian, don't spout nonsense. Do you know how serious that is? "

Zhang Shi sat there calmly. As if he had already known this would happen, he slowly picked up the cup of tea beside him and took a sip. Then, his gaze landed on Huang Zijie. She wanted to see how Huang Zijie would deal with this.

Huang Zijie was stunned. Even if he didn't believe it, he still had to believe it. He didn't seem to be lying, as his livid face suddenly turned red like a pig's liver: "You, you." How can you be so shameless? Don't you know that he's your brother-in-law? "

"I know." "But I like Liu Yanzhi. It has nothing to do with who he is."

Liu Yanzhi looked at Qi Qian helplessly. "I've always treated you as my younger sister, Qiqian." I really don't mean anything else to you. "

When Qi Qian heard Liu Yanzhi's words, her heart instantly turned cold, and a look of disbelief appeared on her face. "What?" I don't believe it. If you don't care about me, why would you comfort me when you see me cry? Why would you talk about everything with me? "

"I, I comforted you, that is because you are my cousin? The reason I want to chat with you is also because you are my cousin! " Liu Yanzhi truly hadn't expected this to cause her to misunderstand. In order to avoid making things worse, he'd decided to make her understand. "Qiqian, I've only thought of you as my little sister, and now I'm your brother-in-law!" I, we're not. "

Huang Zijie could tell from their conversation that this was only a wishful thinking from Zhizhi. He couldn't force Liu Yanzhi to marry her again, because that would be too unfair to his two daughters.

"As a matter of fact, don't you like yellow ink? Didn't you escape the marriage? Didn't you never admit that she was your wife? "Why do you admit it now?" Huang QIqian looked at Liu Yanzhi in disbelief as he questioned her over and over again.

Liu Yanzhi felt helpless. "Is that something I can change?" "Since ancient times, you have always thought that marriage was an order from your parents, and I am your brother-in-law. This is an unchangeable fact." As he spoke, Liu Yanzhi tossed the piece of paper in his hand onto the ground, trying his best to act decisive.

When Qi Qian heard this, she could not help but smile wryly. She looked at the papers on the ground and softly said, "Hand of the Lord, to live forever with your son …" Haha, how ridiculous am I? "How ridiculous."

Huang Zijie felt uncomfortable when he saw the expression on Qi Qian's face. He then waved his hand towards Mrs Liu: "Take her away!"

Mrs Liu quickly went up to help the kneeling, crying and laughing Qi Qian: "Qi Qian, get up, mother will send you back to your room."

Just as Liu Yanzhi was about to turn around and leave, Huang Zijie called out to him. "Wait a moment, just a moment."

Liu Yanzhi stopped in his tracks, feeling flustered. He couldn't guess what his uncle was going to say to him. He slowly turned around and looked at Huang Zijie timidly.

Zhang Shi walked to Huang Zijie's side and said, "Master, please allow Yan Zhi to bring back the Qu [1] to the capital! "If you don't see her soon, you'll forget about her."

Huang Zijie sighed. Was there any other way? He didn't know if the situation in the capital had been resolved, or if he would run into any trouble if he went back just like that.

Liu Yanzhi also felt that the best course of action was to leave the Huang Family, so that they didn't see or feel awkward about Qi Qian. "Uncle, I'll return to the capital with Shi Lei in tow." "My dad must have been anxious to drink his wife's tea since a long time ago."

Huang Zijie shook his head, "No, I promised your father that I wouldn't let you return to the capital without his message."

Liu Fang was shocked. "Why?"

For a moment, Huang Zijie didn't know how to explain. "Because, because your father told me to watch you, work hard."

"Oh!" So it was like this. Uncle, I won't make things difficult for you. In the past, my father had asked me to visit a few respected seniors, so I could use this opportunity to bring along my memory for a visit. "I will return to the capital when you receive my father's message." Liu Yanzhi tried to persuade Huang Zijie.

Huang Zijie didn't immediately refuse, but there was still some hesitation on his face. "This …"

"Uncle, this is also for the best." Besides, I don't know how to face her in the future. Rest assured! I'm married, and I'm an adult. I'll take care of myself and my body. " Liu Yanzhi's tone was adamant, and he looked pleadingly at Huang Zijie as he waited for him to reply.

Lady Zhang glanced at Liu Yanzhi and hastened to persuade her. "Old master, this is good as well!" As the saying goes, reading ten thousand books is inferior to walking ten thousand miles. It would also be helpful for him to visit a few seniors during this year's Autumn Competition. "

"Yes!" Uncle, I also want to walk around and see more of the Great Zhou Dynasty. " Liu Yanzhi pleaded once more.

After a long while, Huang Zijie finally nodded, "Fine! Every single letter that is sent over to this place is a relief to me. "

Liu Yanzhi's face instantly lit up. "Thank you, uncle." I'll go prepare it first. "

Liu Yanzhi turned to look at Lady Zhang. "How did you know that Zhizhi has feelings for her?"

Zhang Shi smiled, "Everyone in this house knows, but no one dares to tell you." "I am only thinking for the sake of the Huang Family. Old Master shouldn't blame me for being meddlesome."

Huang Zijie patted her hand, "Why would I blame you? If we allow it to develop any further, the consequences will be unthinkable. "
