Chapter 96

Ye Xiuyan smelled the aroma of rice, shrugged her little nose, and looked at a restaurant at the foot of Longyin Mountain.

"hungry?"

Lin Jingcheng's eyes showed affection, and he took the little girl's hand and walked towards the restaurant.

A group of people came to the foot of the mountain, and down the steps came down a few youthful young girls, who were students of Lingyan Academy from their clothes.

"Xiu Yan?"

One of the girls saw the twinkle in Lin Jingcheng's eyes, looked down along his arm, saw the little girl holding his left hand clearly, was surprised and delighted, and ran down the steps.

"Sister Qiaoyan?"

When Ye Xiuyan heard someone calling her, she raised her head in surprise, saw that it was Wang Qiaoyan, and waved to her happily.

"Xiuyan, is it really you?"

Wang Qiaoyan ran over in three steps at a time, with flushed cheeks, and hugged Ye Xiuyan.

"Sister Qiaoyan, what a coincidence."

Ye Xiuyan smiled, looked behind her, narrowed her eyes, and saw a familiar figure.

Big brother, Ye Mingjie.

At the same time, Ye Mingjie was also looking at her.

The gloomy eyebrows and eyes are a bit unbelievable.

He learned what happened at home from his father's letter.

The three younger sisters were adopted by the second uncle, and they exchanged 30 taels of silver for him to make up enough money to go to the state capital.

I thought it would be easy for him to be admitted to the Taixue based on his talent and learning, but unexpectedly, news came from the capital that he was not selected.

How unlucky!
It was him!

Ye Xiuyan didn't have a good impression of Ye Mingjie.

Selfish since childhood, relying on being the eldest son and grandson, he looked down on her and mother, and liked to gossip behind their backs.

"Xiu Yan."

Wang Qiaoyan didn't know what was going on in her heart, she pinched her pink cheeks, and said with resentment: "Father sent a carriage to pick you up on the Double Ninth Festival, but you didn't come, which made me so happy that I waited for you at home." morning."

"Hey."

Ye Xiuyan looked away from Ye Mingjie, shrugged her shoulders pretending to be helpless: "I want to come too, but mother doesn't agree, so I can't help it."

"My mother bought you new clothes."

Wang Qiaoyan glanced at Ye Xiuyan's new pink flower jacket, and asked again: "Why didn't you wear it when you went out? It doesn't fit?"

"Suitable."

Ye Xiuyan smiled understandingly: "The clothes Mrs. Wang bought are very suitable for my mother. My mother said that silk and satin are not suitable for weekdays. On New Year's Day, the whole family will change into new clothes for the New Year."

"Just as long as you want."

Wang Qiaoyan felt relieved and smiled from ear to ear.

"Sister Qiaoyan."

Ye Xiuyan tugged at her sleeve, pointed at Lin Jingcheng with a smile, "Do you still remember Brother Lin, he was the one who rescued your family from the water?"

"Oh oh."

Wang Qiaoyan's ears turned red instantly, she was embarrassed to look at the handsome young man: "I said, why does he look so familiar, so he is a benefactor."

"She is?"

Lin Jingcheng didn't have a deep impression of Wang Qiaoyan, and only after hearing the little girl mentioned this matter did he take a serious look at it.

The 12-year-old girl is slender and pretty. At first glance, she can be regarded as charming.

The agility and cunning in his eyes was far worse than that of a little girl.

Only someone as smart and cute as a little girl can make people unforgettable.

"Sister Qiaoyan is the daughter of Dean Wang of Lingyan Academy."

Ye Xiuyan smiled and introduced to the two: "Brother Lin left in a hurry that day. He didn't tell sister Qiaoyan's family name, nor did he ask about their family's situation, so you don't know each other well."

"Your father is the dean of Lingyan Academy?"

When Lin Jingcheng heard Lingyan Academy's eyes light up, he became more energetic.
