The Story of Finding a Husband Through the Past and the Present

Chapter 9

Cen Miaohan is a typical ancient talented woman who is proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so her "house girl" life is not a traditional "house", but more precisely, it should be about self-cultivation.

Every morning, when Mrs. Cen is free at home - Mrs. Cen usually spends afternoons outside to connect with other noble ladies to broaden their relationship and socialize. In the evening, she basically has to attend various banquets. She only has time to stay at home in the morning. At this time, Cen Miaohan I will accompany Mrs. Cen to make tea, arrange flowers, chat and so on, and the relationship between mother and daughter has become closer for a while.When Mrs. Cen went out, Cen Miaohan would play the piano and paint in her room by herself, and she could enjoy playing alone.Evening is the time when Cen Jinxuan is in trouble, unless Father Cen occasionally has not much business and will pull Cen Miaohan to play chess with him, usually Cen Miaohan will hold Cen Jinxuan to teach her various etiquette postures.

Cen Miaohan used it on Cen Jinxuan exactly as she remembered how her elder sister taught her, and she was very rigid. If Cen Jinxuan failed a movement, she was asked to practice it hundreds of times. She was so strict that she didn't look like her usual!
"Sister..." Cen Jinxuan called out weakly.

Cen Miaohan stared and said sternly, "Straighten your back!"

Cen Jinxuan suddenly sat up straight, but within a few seconds, she began to look at Cen Miaohan with her pitiful eyes again and again. "Sister, it's past ten o'clock in the evening, just let me rest, I have to get up early to go to work tomorrow." Seeing that she was still indifferent, I could only ask for mercy, and signed a compensation agreement for myself by the way, "from Starting tomorrow night, I can do whatever you want, anyway, it’s the weekend.”

It is true, Cen Miaohan nodded, "Then you should rest first, and study hard tomorrow, otherwise I will formulate a punishment system."

"Understood." With a flat mouth, Cen Jinxuan complained by the way, "Sister, your rules and regulations are all aimed at ancient ladies, and they don't apply to us here. Besides, even if I learn how to look like it, I wear modern clothes Clothes also look nondescript..."

Of course, Cen Jinxuan has a little bit of regret in her heart. She knew that her elder sister was so strict in teaching people. She would rather let her mother find an etiquette teacher outside. It's not like her eldest sister, there is no taboo in training her.

So when Cen Jinxuan was muttering in her heart, every time she noticed her little complaint, it provided Cen Miaohan with an inspiration, and indirectly made her future study life even more difficult, and the effect was extremely obvious, almost making her whole life They all benefited a lot, but that's for another story. The next day, Cen Jinxuan saw her eldest sister act like magic, and actually took out a very elegant ancient costume for her to change into. She clearly realized that her painful days had really come. up.

"I asked you to wear Song clothes last night, just to give you a feeling. From today on, we will all wear this at home. Make sure that every word and action you make is absolutely elegant and generous."

Looking at Cen Miaohan, who was dressed in a light apricot color Song suit, with no makeup, black hair shawl, and only a graceful jade hairpin inserted in the bun on the top of her head. She was dressed elegantly and simply, but she was more dazzlingly beautiful than ever, Cen Jinxuan suppressed the reluctance in her heart. Seeing such a big sister whose words and deeds made others seem to enjoy it like art, she was not unenviable in her heart. She also knew that the big sister was doing this for her own good. It's time to put away those conflicting thoughts. If she can really learn half of the elder sister's elegance, it will really benefit her immensely.

Taking a sip of tea, Cen Miaohan showed a smile on her face, "You performed well today, let's rest for a while."

Cen Jinxuan felt ashamed, this was the first time she heard her elder sister's praise, it was not easy, thinking, she also sat down next to Cen Miaohan, drinking tea slowly, her elder sister seemed to have nothing to do at home, in fact Living a more leisurely and nourishing life than anyone else, this kind of contented life even made her envious.

After a quarter of an hour, Cen Miaohan picked up the ruler at hand, stood up and said, "Alright, let's learn how to treat guests..."

Someone outside knocked on the door a few times, Cen Miaohan put down the ruler, sat back to her original position, instantly regained her previous gentleness, and said lightly under Cen Jinxuan's dumbfounded eyes, "Please come in."

——Cen Jinxuan really wanted to burst into tears, that's it, this is her big sister's trump card!Ever since she was ill, the eldest sister has become such a duplicity. She looks virtuous and virtuous on the outside. In fact, when she was being scolded, she was as strict as the famous Miejue Shitai in the school, but she lived in In such dire straits, the rest of the family felt that she had taken advantage of it, and asked the eldest sister who had become very good-tempered to teach her etiquette - wool, she didn't want to take advantage of this at all, okay!
It was Xiaoli who came in. Seeing two beauties in ancient costumes sitting in the room, especially looking at the pair of sparkling eyes of the eldest lady, Xiaoli blushed, and it took two seconds before she regained her composure and went about her business. "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, there are guests at home, sir and madam call you to go down."

"Oh, do you know who it is?"

"This...is the second young master of Shangguan's family visiting."

Cen Jinxuan stood up vigorously, "Sister, why is he coming to our house!"

Cen Miaohan glanced at her indifferently but with a warning, seeing Cen Jinxuan sitting back obediently, looking at Xiaoli as if it had nothing to do with her, "Did the Second Young Master Shangguan come here alone?"

"Yes."

"I see, you go to work first."

"it is good."

After Xiaoli went out, Cen Jinxuan looked at Cen Miaohan worriedly, "Why did that Shangguan Yuqi come to our house alone?"

Cen Jinxuan's eyes were full of concern, and the smile on Cen Miaohan's face deepened a bit, but her tone was still calm and unwavering, "Jinxuan, it seems that you haven't learned well enough before, a surprise is the most important thing."

"……I see."

So Cen Jinxuan followed Cen Miaohan down the stairs to meet the guests with a low eyebrow. The parties involved were none of her business, and she was able to hold her head high and calm, even if the sky fell, she would still remain calm.

Shangguan Yuqi was originally sitting on the sofa chatting with Cen's father, but then she turned her eyes and saw two beauties in ancient costumes with fluttering skirts coming downstairs, especially the one walking in front, with light beige wide sleeves and narrow sleeves. The waist skirt, the cuffs and the hem of the skirt are embroidered with flying butterflies. They follow each other and seem to dance with the wind.

If it weren't for the limited level of Chinese, Shangguan Yuqi really wanted to shake his folding fan and say a poem like "there are beauties in the north, who are independent from the world, with one smile, the city, and the second smile, the country", but he racked his brains for a long time , I couldn't think of such a fitting verse, so I had to give up.

When people got closer, Shangguan Yuqi felt even more amazing. Her skin was as thick as fat, her eyebrows were picturesque, and her eye-catching beauty had nothing to do with appearance, but a kind of beauty that radiated from the inside out. A kind of temperament - Shangguan Yuqi likes beautiful women, and what he likes is such beauties whose temperament is superior to their looks. However, he can be said to have seen countless beauties, but only after seeing Cen Miaohan did he realize that the ones he had seen before were all vulgar pink.

It has to be said that this is the first official meeting between the fiancée and the fiancée is satisfied.However, whether the ending is equally perfect is still unknown.

It took Shangguan Yuqi a lot of time to find Cen Miaohan. She met Cen Miaohan last weekend, and she didn't bring anything with her until this weekend. A double quotation mark, because the relationship between Cen Miaohan and Shangguan Yuqi was only a verbal promise by the parents of the two parties, and they have not yet been formally engaged, and besides those who are close to the two, no one knows that they are going to marry.

Ever since Shangguan Yuqi found the news about Cen Miaohan, and found out that this woman whom he could never forget at first sight was actually the engagement object prepared for him by the old man at home, she has been entangled in her heart for two days.He was only 24 years old, and the old man wanted to find a woman to tie him down. This was already very unkind, and what was even more unkind was that the woman was actually an old woman who was two years older than him!The Shangguan Second Young Master, who has always been suave, is naturally extremely dissatisfied with this marriage. If he must get engaged, he would rather the other party be Alia, at least the other party is a small bird, and he will never care about him when he is with him for more than half a year However, Alia's status is too weak, and the old man will never agree.

Closer to home, Shangguan Yuqi originally had a lot of dissatisfaction with Cen Miaohan, and she believed that the woman the old man was looking for must be more ferocious than a tigress, so when the investigation results came out, his first reaction was unbelievable.

He had already made preparations for a long-term war of resistance, but he raised the white flag and surrendered to the opponent before he opened fire—this made his careful planning during that time so embarrassing!

However, Shangguan Yuqi doesn't think she is a person who puts her brains on display. To say something immodestly, he has always thought that he is quite intelligent. Let's think about it. A smart and capable man like him should not be arrogant. Since the fiancée the old man chose for him made him very satisfied, then he didn't need to resist, and resisted for the sake of resisting. Doesn't it seem that he is looking for it on his own, or someone who knows the current affairs is a hero!
In fact, the main reason is that the beauty trap is too strong, Shangguan Second Young Master always finds a step for himself, and after getting down from the step, he ran to Cen's house.
