The winter in the capital is very cold, and the sun has climbed up to the roof, and the thin layer of ice attached to the glazed window has not yet been melted.

Xie Lanyin was sitting on the warm couch wearing a peach-red jacket embroidered with crabapple flowers. The two-year-old Jinbei was lying on the window ridge and poked the window with his fat fingers to play. Yuzhan opened the curtain and walked in. When the little guy heard the movement, he immediately turned his head to look, but because his clothes were too thick, he accidentally squatted down, looked at his sister with big eyes, and suddenly said "Ouch", and he didn't know who he learned it from.

Xie Lanyin smiled and carried his younger brother into his arms. He heard Yuzhan tell her mother that her second sister Xie Lanqiao had not arrived yet, and she was a little disappointed.

She hadn't seen her for half a year, and she missed her sisters. Her second sister sent her letter last month, saying that she was here today. The eldest sister was pregnant and would not come back at the end of next year. Xie Lanyin thought about the eldest sister and was happy for her. The eldest sister's first nephew or niece was in her belly. Unfortunately, she was too far away and she couldn't see what the pregnant eldest sister looked like. She couldn't imagine it by thinking it alone.

"Does Jinbei want the second sister?" He continued to wait, and Xie Lanyin kissed his younger brother and asked in a stern manner.

Jinbei looked at his sister blankly, blinked his eyes, and pointed outside, "Sister Six!"

Lan Bao came over to coax him almost every day. In addition to his own sister, Jinbei liked the sixth sister who loved to laugh the most.

After hearing this, Jiang pretended to be gloating and said to his younger daughter: "I deserve it. Let your second sister go to Xi'an, and Jinbei doesn't remember her anymore."

Xie Lanyin knew that her mother was thinking about her two sisters more than her, so she smiled but said nothing.

The three of them waited for a while, and the doorman finally delivered a letter. The second girl and the third cousin entered the city and arrived soon.

Xie Lanyin instinctively put on her shoes and moved to the edge of the bed to stop again, looking at her mother and said, "Mom, go, I'll wait for them to come in here."

She is now a depressed girl waiting to marry. The less she appears, the better. Otherwise, she will definitely smile when she goes out to pick up her sister.

Jiang nodded and asked her youngest daughter to coax her son in the house. She went outside to pick up someone.

Xie Lanyin continued to sit on the couch. Not long after, he heard the joking voice of his third cousin Jiang Huaizhou in the yard, "Lanyin's airs are getting bigger and bigger. When my dear cousin comes, you don't show your face and have no sincerity at all."

Xie Lanyin couldn't help laughing. Seeing her younger brother climbing to the window curiously, she said softly: "This is our third cousin."

Jinbei just learned a low voice, "Three Cousin".

When Jiang Huaizhou and Xie Lanqiao followed Jiang, Jinbei hid in his sister's arms a little and looked at the two people in front of the couch with a restrained look.

"Come here in Jinbei and give your third cousin a hug." Jiang Huaizhou glanced at his little cousin and stretched out his hand to Jinbei first.

Jinbei did not give face at all, shook his head, and turned his big eyes to Xie Lanqiao.

Xie Lanqiao also stretched out his hand and smiled and coaxed his cute brother, "Do you still remember the second sister in Jinbei?"

Perhaps she looked similar to her mother's fifth sister. The fifth sister talked to him for a morning. Jinbei understood that the person in front of her was also kissing her. After hesitating for a moment, he looked up at the fifth sister. After receiving encouragement, he turned toward Xie Lanqiao. Xie Lanqiao immediately carried the little guy into his arms and kissed him several times in a row.

The maids left at some point. Jiang Huaizhou pinched his cousin's fat hand and his eyes gradually returned to the little cousin sitting inside. His face turned cold and he asked in a low voice: "In March, King Qin returned to Beijing. Did you know his identity at that time, so you have to separate from him?"

Mr. Yuan is the King of Qin, and he has already told them in his aunt's secret letter.

My cousin came to settle the account that she didn't report when she knew it. Xie Lanyin drooped her head and looked honest as if she could beat and scold her.

Jiang Huaizhou was so angry that his little cousin pretended to be pitiful and threw him into pieces. "He doesn't have the courage to see me, why don't you tell me? Are you still afraid that I, an ordinary citizen, can hurt him? I know that my elbow is turning out. Now that he wants to marry you, he will be ate it. I'll be ate enough. I think what if he bullies you in the future!"

Thinking that he regarded Xiao Yuan as a friend, but the other party used fake identities from beginning to end, Jiang Huaizhou wanted to find Qin's palace.

Xie Lanyin lowered her head and held the handkerchief in Xiao Yuan's reprimand, and then settled with him after marrying him.

"Okay, okay, you don't know his difficulties." Jiang still felt sorry for his second son-in-law and whispered to his nephew to stop.

"My aunt is also partial to him!" Jiang Huaizhou said very seriously.

Jiang was funny and changed the topic: "Let's spend this year in the capital. Your eldest cousin is not here, so stay with your aunt and leave when Lan Yin gets married next year." Although it was a happy event, because of her son-in-law's identity, she said in her letter to Xi'an that she would not have to go there again.

That's what Jiang Huaizhou planned. While nodding, he glared at the little cousin who was still pretending to be good, "Just because you insist on marrying him, Lan Qiao also wants to get married in advance."

Xie Lanyin raised her head in shock and looked at her second sister. Jiang was also surprised, "What the hell is going on?"

Xie Lanqiao handed Jinbei to her mother. She loved her sister and sat down, holding her hand, and said in a relaxed tone, "It was Shen Yingshi. He mentioned hiding to me last year, but I didn't agree. This time I took the initiative to find him..."

After hearing this, Xie Lanyin burst into tears.

No one knew better than her that her second sister wanted to go out for a walk, but because of her, her sister chose to be the tyrant lady of the inner hut. Shen Yingshi and Xie Lanyin remembered that she was a noble family with good looks, but the bad others did not mean that her sister liked him, not to mention that Shen Yingshi's mother and sister didn't like them.

Xie Lanyin felt very guilty and leaned into her sister's arms and cried, "It's all my fault..."

Xie Lanqiao patted his sister's shoulder and said with a funny look: "As for crying? You have never seen him, how can you be worthy of me? Lan Yin doesn't need to think too much about it. My sister really decided to marry him in order to make you live a more comfortable life, but she really appreciates him. She will marry sooner or later, but only two years in advance. You should be happy for our mother, and you don't have to worry about how I can't get married anymore."

She was teasing her mother, but Xie Lanyin didn't find it funny at all, and she still hugged her sister and wiped her tears.

When Jinbei saw his sister crying, he looked up at his mother blankly.

Jiang walked to the two sisters with her son in her arms, put down Jinbei and asked him to comfort her sister. She sat next to her second daughter and touched her long hair. "Lanqiao told her the truth. Without Lan Yin's marriage, would you really want to marry him?"

Xie Lanqiao smiled and said, "I am satisfied with his people, but I shouldn't marry him. After all, his identity is there, and the family seems to be difficult to get along with. But now, as long as we are patient, we can live a comfortable life in our family, and I still make a profit."

My daughter was so sensible. Jiang's eyes were sour. She held someone in her arms and murmured: "Why are you so stupid? Your father would rather not be an official, I would rather not be an official wife than exchange your lifelong affairs for those external things. Lanqiao, go find Mr. Shen again..."

"How can you break your promise?" Xie Lanqiao calmly interrupted his mother, "Besides, he should have already mentioned to the Queen. Instead of urging me to change my mind, it is better to think about the future. And daddy, you have to help us persuade him to calm down."

Jiang smiled bitterly.

Now it seems that the oldest daughter is the one who is most worry-free.

In the evening, Xie Hui came back from the yamen in advance. He was very happy. When he learned that the second daughter had decided to make a marriage with someone, she did not make an anger with the daughters. She went straight to the study to write her resignation, saying that she did not agree with anything. Xie Lanqiao wanted to persuade him, but was driven away by Jiang. I don’t know how she persuaded him, but Xie Hui was angry all night but still accepted him.

Xie Lanyin knew that her sister was for her, her father was for her, and she wanted to make her live a peaceful life in the royal palace without worrying about implicating her family. Now she really didn't have to worry, but she felt guilty and got angry, and three blisters appeared on her lips.

Xie Lanqiao was angry with her sister, and after seeing her, she left, saying that when will she be better and when will she come again?

Jiang Huaizhou also felt sorry for his little cousin. He was so angry that his little cousin was almost married, so he tried every means to make Xie Lanyin happy. He specifically said some stupid things that Chen Yingshi did in front of Xie Lanqiao when they went to Beijing with Chen Yingshi, and said Chen Yingshi was a shy little wife who blushed.

This works better than any medicine. I learned that Chen Yingshi really likes his sister and that his sister likes to tease him, so he should have a good impression of her. Xie Lanyin's fire finally went out. After a few days of treatment, her lips returned to normal.

In the middle of the twelfth lunar month, Xie Lanwei was about to get married and married into the Shen family.

Xie Lanyin did not show up, so she just asked her sister to take over the cabinet ceremony so that she would not go there in person and listen to the sarcasm of the second wife of Liang'er.

Unexpectedly, Xie Lanwei returned to her door three days later and came to her.

"Fifth sister, the Empress said that you will marry into Qin's palace after the New Year, and with my relationship, we are all a family, so let me take you and my second sister to pay tribute to you. The Empress wants to see you first."

Xie Lanwei, wearing a red dress, stood in front of the couch, looking at her cousin sitting inside pretending to be reading a book in a complicated mood.

She was not jealous of Xie Lanyin's position as concubine because the King of Qin was not favored, but she couldn't understand why Chen Yingshi would fall in love with Xie Lanqiao. Once Chen Yingshi married Xie Lanqiao, Xie Lanqiao would become her sister-in-law and the wife of the Shen family, and pressing her cousin to death.

Her mother had been suppressed by Jiang's family, and she was unwilling to continue being suppressed by Jiang's daughter.
