Chapter 40 Little Secret(2/2)

She did not dare to delay any longer and returned to the Qin Mansion early, thinking that after saying goodbye to Mrs. Qin, she would go back at dawn.

But as soon as she stepped into Mrs. Qin's main courtyard, she was in a trance.

Mrs. Qin was sitting in the shelter of the corridor drinking tea. The young man sitting next to her was wearing his usual dark brocade robe. Perhaps he heard her footsteps and looked up.

Brother, why are you here?

Seeing her coming, Mrs. Qin waved to her, "Come and have tea. Your brother just brought new tea from the seaside."

Qin Tian swayed.

The play was really well done, and he also brought new tea from the beach. If Qin Tian hadn't known that he had been staying at Liefeng Shanfang these days, he would have almost believed it.

She secretly glanced at the brother who "just came back from the sea" in a funny way.

The latter coughed lightly, took the tea cup and drank tea, the smile on his lips became a little heavier.

Of course, Qin Tian would not tell the secret. He pursed his lips and smiled, bowed and sat on the embroidered pier.

The maid Xiao Yun poured her a cup of tea. The tea soup was cool and fragrant.

Qin Tian had heard when he was in Zhucheng that some families in coastal towns planted tea trees on the mountains, and the green tea they produced was not much worse than the tea from the south.

Especially in the spring and autumn, these teas are picked and fried now, which adds a much more aroma of fresh tea than the tea leaves transported by waterways from the south.

She took a few sips and glanced at her brother beside her.

"Brother actually brought such fresh tea, it's really rare."

Mrs. Qin couldn't hear anything, but Qin Shen could hear the smile in the little girl's words and glanced at her with the end of his eyes.

"Since it's rare, just drink two more cups."

Qin Tian nodded and said yes, with a serious look on his face.

"Not only is it rare to get new tea, but it's also rare for my brother to come back. I think it's hard work."

She spoke so seriously that Mrs. Qin didn't understand, and thought the girl really thought so, but Qin Shen saw she was completely naughty when she peeked at him from the corner of her eyes.

In the past, I only saw him as a well-behaved, honest and timid person, but now I realize that there is a narrow-minded person hidden inside.

Qin Shen said it was not hard and took the teacup.

"The coursework in the academy is heavy, but studying is the hard work."

Qin Tian immediately choked on the tea soup.

He, how did he know that she and Mrs. Qin used such rhetoric!

"Ahem——"

Qin Tian really choked and hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief to avoid losing his composure.

The young man put his hand on his lips and covered half of his face. Only from Qin Tian's angle could he see the corners of his raised lips.

Mrs. Qin was completely unaware of the previous situation between the two of them. While asking Xiao Yun to follow the girl's instructions, she called Qin Tian.

"Tiantian doesn't want to see anyone outside. There is no need to call him brother, just call him eldest brother."

Big brother is a more intimate term.

Qin Shen's men paused slightly, and his eyes fell on the little girl's face.

Good night.
