The smile on the old man's face froze instantly when he saw the hem of the red clothes.

He looked up at the hem of his clothes with dark lines of gold threads, and as expected, he saw that face that didn't please him.

Who said she wasn't coming?

The old man looked sideways at Lao Xu and Jin Zhan, their faces were not good-looking.

Ever since they were cleaned up, when the two meet Shiqing, they are like a mouse seeing a cat.

The corners of the old man's mouth drooped down, looking unwelcome.

However, Shi Qing smiled and shouted, "Grandpa, why are you meeting me outside of me when you go out to live for a few months."

"I don't see you, is it useful to find you?" The old man said badly.

"certainly"

Shi Qing gasped, "It's useless."

"..."

Then what are you doing? Find it for yourself?

When the two were talking, Uncle Biao looked at Shi Qing at the door and asked, "Shi Qing?"

Dear, can you be clear? !

Shi Qing stood in the doorway with her back to the sun, and the dark golden lines on her hem and cuffs seemed to flow with golden light under the warm winter sun, which made her dazzling face even more noble.

When he came here some time ago, Shi Qing was like a piece of mud that couldn't support the wall, why is he now a lump of gold!

The old man replied lightly, "Just her."

Except for Shiqing, who else could make him unhappy.

My cousin stood up affectionately, "Shiqing, how old are you, I still remember my uncle, I hugged you when you were young."

Where does Shi Qing remember who hugged her, as a junior, she still called out, "Uncle and grandpa."

Li's "nature" is soft-hearted and good-natured, and he is not one to gossip and speak ill of others, but when he is sitting in a carriage on the road, when he mentions his uncle and grandfather, he is indescribably repelled.

There must be something special about him that can be hated by the Li family.

"Sure enough, a good boy, polite." Uncle and grandpa took Shiqing's hand in and bragged to the old man.

When the time is clear, his grandfather can enjoy the happiness with him.

When a high-ranking official in the Qing Dynasty, there is a light and promising relative who says that he has a face on his face.

It is also said that the old family's ancestral tomb emits blue smoke, and it is buried in a good location.

The old man had a wooden face the whole time, as if he was not complimenting his own family.

"You don't know her..." The old man was hesitant to speak, and his expression was inexhaustible.

However, the uncle and grandpa held Shiqing's hand affectionately, as if he only kissed Shiqing's grandfather.

"Shiqing, I heard that when you are transferred to the Ministry of Household, the salary must be higher. After all, even I know that the Ministry of Household is the richest."

Shi Qing smiled, "Look at what you said, it's like my family. No matter how rich it is, it belongs to the court, and it has nothing to do with me."

"It doesn't matter, how much oil and water can I have?" My uncle and grandfather lied to me.

Shi Qing, "..."

Oil and water, the prisoners in the prison heard that there is water without oil. Would you like to try it?

Seeing Shiqing was not very interested in chatting with the Ministry of Households, my uncle and grandfather began to talk about family affairs again, "I heard that you married a husband, is your husband pregnant?"

Shi Qing suddenly felt that it was fine to have no relatives.

She said, "Not yet, we Ji Xiao are not in a hurry."

Unexpectedly, the voice of the uncle and grandpa suddenly turned up, "What's the matter, you are almost twenty, you should have a child."

Shi Qing's smile froze, "...No hurry."

"How can you not be in a hurry? It's important to inherit the lineage. If you don't need to be in a hurry, what should be urgent?" Grandpa patted Shiqing's hand, "Listen to Grandpa's persuasion to have children earlier."

Speaking of which, the old man echoed the bad sentence, "I didn't agree with her marrying the concubine of the Yun family at the beginning, but if you change to a man, you should get pregnant."

"You son of a bitch," my uncle and grandfather's eyes flickered, pretending to hear it for the first time, "we are so good when it comes to everything, and we don't have any children yet. Could it be that your husband is not good?"

"If it doesn't work, hurry up and marry another one while you're still young, so that you can spread branches and leaves for your Shi family, and let your grandfather hug the younger generation."

With a sincere face, my uncle and grandfather stated his purpose, "If you want Shiqing, you don't dislike it. My grandson will give it to your family. How about giving it to your child?"

"?!"

What?

Shi Qing's eyes widened, shocked.

She thought she had heard it wrong.

Uncle and grandfather are really straight to the point, and they send their grandsons away when they open their mouths.

Shi Qing broke free from the grabbed hand, "Send, I hate it, I don't have a great idea."

"Look at you, talk like that," my uncle didn't give up, "I have to see it anyway. My grandson looks good, I'm sure you like it."

When Shi Qing was about to speak, someone came in outside the door.

Mrs Zhang said with a smile, "Father, uncle, the third one is here."

Uncle and grandpa looked out the door, and saw Shi Ju, Li Shi and a man he had never seen walking in through the threshold.

When Shi Ju and Li Shi went to greet the old man, the old man immediately turned his face and showed them to them.

Yun Zhi walked up to Shi Qing and asked her in a low voice, "How can you go so fast?"

Shi Qing whispered fortunately, "Thanks for walking fast."

A few steps later, my uncle and grandpa might bring it to the door in person.

The two of them bowed their heads and bit their ears.

Uncle and grandpa stared blankly at Shi Qing and Yun Zhi, his eyes mainly fell on Yun Zhi, and he reacted to Shi Qing's husband after realizing it.

Although Yun Zhi was wearing a white brocade robe today, his belt and inner lining were stacked in red, and were also embroidered with dark patterns of gold threads.

Looking at it, you can see the same pattern and embroidery technique on Shi Qing's body.

You Qi Yunzhi has a straight back, open shoulders, and a thin and slender waist. Compared with his appearance, his tall and straight body is more conspicuous.

His clothes were red and white, making him look expensive.

If you don't know that Yunzhi was born as a concubine of a merchant family, just looking at his quality and appearance, which prince in the palace would still be.

The two stood up, an indescribable match.

Uncle and grandpa were speechless, and Shiqing husband was also very good-looking. Compared with him, his good-looking little grandson really can't do it.

Seeing that his uncle and grandfather were looking at Yun Zhi, Shi Qing showed off to him, "Yun Zhi, my husband."

Unspeakable pride.

Look good, my~

Yun Zhi was stunned, his ears were slightly warm, and he was a little embarrassed. He raised his hand and bowed respectfully to Uncle Biao, "Uncle and Grandpa."

The expression on my uncle's face was a little light, as if he didn't look down on him.

Born from a concubine, you can't be restless if you look good, especially if you can't have children.

Just like the Li family, but the direct son of the Li family has some money anyway, but Yun Zhi is a concubine, what can he have?

Uncle and grandpa replied lightly, "Yes."

Unspeakable perfunctory and contempt.

"?!"

What language?

Shi Qing burst into the spleen!

Yun Zhi stretched out his hand to pull her down and motioned her to come over with Shi Ju and Li Shi, but Shi Qing reluctantly endured it.

"Uncle cousin."

Shi Ju and Li Shi greeted him.

Mrs. Li has a headache when she sees an uncle, and she doesn't like a relative the most. She really looks ugly every time she comes over to eat.

But sometimes, the courtesy of the child always has to be given.

"Ms. Li." Uncle and grandpa patted his hand with a smile, and his eyes fell on his wrist.

Mrs. Li is wearing an agate bracelet today, which makes her skin more "colorful", very beautiful.

Grandpa's eyes brightened.

Li's scalp tightened slightly and looked at Shiju.

Shi Ju stepped forward to call for Uncle Biao, and Mrs. Li took advantage of the situation to hide behind her, and at the same time, her sleeves were pulled down silently.

He was so used to wearing the bracelet that he forgot to take it off.

"Shi Ju," my uncle and grandpa retracted his gaze reluctantly, and spoke to Shi Ju, "your daughter is very promising, and Xiao Xiaoji is a high-ranking official, so she can't come."

Shi Ju just smiled, "Uncle Biao praises her, she is Ji Xiao, so she can't be praised."

"Why can't you stand it?" Uncle and grandpa said, "I want to tell you that your third family has a lot to do, being a mother's father and a daughter's minister of the household. All the family members, why are the sisters so different?"

He didn't see Mrs Zhang present, so he deliberately told Mrs Zhang to run against Mrs Zhang.

Who made Zhang's little stingy tight, even a pot of good tea was reluctant to have someone bring it over.

The smile on Mrs. Zhang's face faded, and she twisted the towel in front of her nose, drooping her eyes as if she didn't hear it.

Uncle and grandfather insisted, "I heard that Shixi hasn't been assigned an errand yet. Shiqing's household servant, why doesn't she keep up with her sister and argue with her."

"And Mrs. Zhang, the boss of your family, Yan Xin, is much older than Shi Qing, right? So far, he's only a rank six."

Uncle and grandpa's face is thin and pointed, and when he speaks adverbial words, there is always a bitter and mean taste.

He made a gesture, "Sixth grade, it's far worse than fourth grade, how can I support my family and live."

"There's no dispute over Shixi, it's nothing compared to Shiqing."

Zhang's face was ugly, "Even if Uncle Biao doesn't like my two children, he doesn't need to say something ugly."

The face of the third family is also obvious.

"Is it ugly?" Uncle and grandpa were surprised and looked at everyone as if seeking approval, "Isn't it true?"

"There is still Shixi. So far, I haven't even married my husband. How long will it take? I also care about her, so I just said a few more words. If I want to change to the child of the adult family, I don't hesitate to say it."

He sat back next to the old man and said, "Everyone, it's really not as good as the third family."

Zhang's breathing was heavy, and he tightened his handkerchief, hoping to pick up the broom and drive him out!

That kind of virtue, worthy of his good tea?

Just then, Shi Qing said, "Uncle and grandpa, since you care about my second sister, why don't you spend some money to get around and find a good job for her?"

Uncle and grandpa were stunned, and the words blurted out, "How can I have the money to give her a relationship?"

He looked at Shi Qing and Shi Ju, and said with a smile, "your family, you and your mother help her, why do you need me as an outsider."

Shi Qing was surprised, "Emotionally, you still know that you are an outsider!"

"When you pointed fingers at my second sister's house, I thought you were the one who kissed her grandfather."

"As you said, the affairs of our family have nothing to do with you. Since you are not willing to pay for the relationship, why should you care whether my second sister is divided into positions or not married?"

"Anyway, my second sister is also a serious jinshi, and my eldest sister is a scholar at the Hanlin Academy. We have a few sisters, and our choices are different. Why do we need to distinguish between high and low?"

"Although your eyelids are narrow, your eyes are quite wide."

Hearing this, Mr. Zhang was slightly startled, looked up at Shi Qing, and was indescribably moved and moved.

Do you still have Shi Qing who can get him to the point where his chest hurts?

Divide Qing'er, his niece's niece!

The good boy would actually speak for her second sister and lift her second sister's hand.

Zhang's eyes were hot.

Shi Qing sat on the chair, holding the tea cup, his face was light.

No matter what, Shixi is also her family. Anyway, the surname is "Shi". My uncle and grandpa thought that when he stepped on Shixi and held her, Shiqing didn't need it.

She can laugh at her second sister, who turns the shell, but not a human being.

Not to mention relatives who can't be beaten by eight poles.

Uncle and grandpa didn't react, and looked at Shi Qing in surprise, "How does your child talk? I said Shixi but not you, why are you in a hurry?"

Shi cleans up what he should do, "No matter how stupid Shixi is, it's my second sister, why can't I be in a hurry?"

Mrs Zhang, "..."

If the word "stupid" can be removed, he will be more moved.

Uncle and grandpa suddenly realized, like something, patted his thigh, "I know, your child is not happy with what I said just now."

He looked at Shi Ju and Li Shi and asked them to judge, "I care about Shi Qing, and said that she should have a child at her age, and if her husband can't, my grandson can give it to her, so I will pay her back. offend her."

Shi Ju and Li Shi, "..."

Yun Zhilai was drinking tea and almost choked himself when he heard the tea spurting out of his mouth.

Who, who can't?

How can a man be said no!

He pursed his lips and raised his eyes to stare at the right uncle.

The pair is still saying, "You don't know, everyone who sees my grandson will say that it is easy to raise, and he will definitely be a daughter. When the time comes, a small sedan chair will be carried into your house, and the branches will be scattered for your family."

Yun Zhi put down the tea cup expressionlessly, regretting not bringing the sword over.

Still blooming? He can cut a branch into a bachelor!

Li hurriedly said to Uncle Biao, "No, no, we, Yun Zhiji, are still young, so we are not in a hurry to have children."

Who knew that the old man scolded him, "What do you know?"

Mrs. Li was startled by the fierceness, and Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth to help, "Father, Shiqing and Yunzhi's biological father, Li Shiqing, why don't you understand? When do you want the child to be discussed by the family of four, why bother? Ask more."

The old man choked on Zhang's sentence "people".

Mrs. Li looked at Mrs. Zhang, and Mrs. Zhang gave him a reassuring look.

No matter how violent the riots are in private, they are the family, and the uncle is the outsider.

Now, to my uncle, where is there any reason to help outsiders regardless of their own family?

The old man couldn't carry it clearly, and Mrs. Zhang was not used to him.

"Look, I'm kind enough to offend people." Uncle and grandpa looked around, took the tea cup and sipped, drank the tea stalk, sipped twice to the side, and put the tea cup back on the table heavily.

He felt strange, "As expected of a high-ranking official, I can't listen to good words. I married my grandson to Shi Qing, for whom, not for Shi's family, for my sister who died early."

"The Li family is only one. Now that Yun family concubine is not even pregnant, who knows if it will be possible. If you want me to say, how about marrying two more?"

Uncle and grandfather glanced at Li Shi and Yun Zhi, "Compared to being fancy, it's better to use."

He scolded two people.

Shi Ju's face darkened slightly.

The Shiqing tea cup was placed on the table, and the soft sound was particularly clear in the quiet hall.

The old man who came to speak a few words instantly closed his mouth.

Shiju's face softened slightly.

Shi Qing opened his mouth, looked at his uncle and grandpa, smiled slightly, and said, "The granddaughters of my uncle's grandfather's family, are you Koenke today? What's the ranking?"

"If you don't have an official career, you should do something about it. How much do you earn today?"

"As far as your uncle and grandfather looks down on you, if your granddaughter is admitted to the top spot and buys a house with four entrances and four exits in the capital, won't you slap you in the face?"

Uncle and grandpa paused and said embarrassingly, "They don't have the material to study and do business."

"Why don't you have a lot of material?" Shi Qing asked back, "I can't teach one master well, why don't you find a few more masters? Just a pig, if you teach it carefully, it might even be able to climb a tree."

"Could it be that the few people in your family are not as good as pigs? Why don't you argue! Then hurry up and let my cousin have a few more."

"If my cousin can't do it, I'll introduce Qingneng to your daughter."

The faces of the son and son-in-law brought by the uncle suddenly became ugly.

Well said, how to discuss his family?

Uncle and grandpa's face also drooped down, and he said to Shi Qing, "It's not something you should be concerned about as a junior, you can just take care of yourself."

Shi Qing was waiting for a word.

She patted the table and stood up, "You know my dog ​​is nosy with mice?"

"But didn't I learn from you, my uncle?"

"Why can't we ask about your family's affairs? You have to make irresponsible remarks about my family's affairs. Our relatives are one-way? Only you can take care of us?"

"It's good to hear that you have double standards to some extent, but it's hard to hear that you stick your left cheek to your right cheek, and you have two skins while being shameless."

"How many times have I seen you since I was a child? I still take care of my husband. Does my husband love him? How many have something to do with you? Want you to support him and me?"

"If you don't talk about your face, you have no point in your heart. We're not that close, so you can take care of your business."

"If you have spare time, it's better to raise a pig. It has more hope than your unfilial granddaughters."

Uncle and grandfather's face was red and his neck was thick, and he was panting hard when he pointed, "You,..."

His face was hot, especially when Shi Qing pointed at him in public, no one stood up to speak for him.

Shi Qing clasped his arms and stared back, "Me?"

The uncle and grandpa turned around and said to the old man, "Brother, I miss you in my heart. It's hard to come here on a cold day, so what is your attitude? If you want, I will, I will leave!"

He wiped away tears that didn't exist and said, "I won't come again in the future! It's all like your relatives."

Everyone's eyes are bright.

Anything good?

Uncle and Grandpa, "..."

Only the old man hurriedly reached out his hand to stop him, "You, what does she know as a child. Shi Qing, can't you pay your uncle and grandpa soon!"

The relatives who came to the door had to go back without having eaten their lunch. What did they say? How will relatives communicate in the future?

Apologize? Shi Qing sneered, he has to match!

Especially Uncle and Grandpa sat firmly on the chair, and didn't mean to leave at all.

But it's his way.

After Shi Qing came to apologize and confessed his fault, wouldn't the conditions be free for him?

Uncle and grandpa looked at Shi Qing, "I miss you as a child and give you another chance."

He snorted and glanced at Li's wrist from the corner of his eye, "If you don't apologize, I won't forgive you. I will tell you what you said today when I go out and see how you will behave among your relatives in the future!"

Li Shi frowned and put his hand on his wrist, what Uncle Bai meant.

Don't take pictures of his things, let him take the bracelet and apologize for Shiqing.

"Ah~ I'm not afraid of threats!" Shi Qing stood in front of him, blocking his sight of Li Shi, and shouted, "Someone."

She looked at her uncle and grandpa, "If you don't tell me about today's affairs, I'm not feeling well, and everyone is not having a good time!"

Uncle and grandpa stared at Shi Qing blankly, and subconsciously grabbed the armrest of the chair, "What are you going to do?"

"Naturally see off."

Shi Qing said: "Since my uncle and grandpa feel that we can't get along with our relatives, I can't force you, I can only send you out. You like to be with whomever you like."

Mr. Zhang nodded, and the servants at the door came in immediately, helping his uncle and grandpa left and right, while the rest helped his son and son-in-law to walk out the door.

Shi Qing picked up the two small gift boxes that his uncle and grandfather had brought.

At the gate, my uncle and grandpa were almost sitting on the ground.

The old man followed behind on crutches and scolded Shiqing, "Hurry up, what does it look like to send someone out!"

Zhang shi frowned and pulled his arm, seemingly supporting, but actually dragging, "Father, it's better for relatives to move less."

"Like you, how do outsiders see me and how do we see our family!" The old man's crutches were on the ground.

The uncle and grandfather outside also shouted, "There are relatives of your kind! The big ones will drive people out!"

Shi Qing said immediately: "Look at what my uncle said, we can't stop you if you have to go."

She deliberately raised her voice and said, "Uncle and grandpa, don't you stay for dinner? You're welcome. Take the things. How much of our junior's wishes, you can't be a guest!"

Uncle and grandpa took the gift box.

What?

Return her heart and share what they brought!

But when Shiqing shouted, it became that his uncle and grandfather had to leave. Shiqing couldn't keep it, so he could only send some gifts to show his affection.

Especially the uncle and grandpa who accepted it.

Now my uncle and grandpa can't explain clearly.

Especially the family of Shi's family, how can they drive people out? Uncle Ding and Grandpa Ding don't want to stay for dinner!

Relatives, guests!

When the servants stuffed the uncle and grandpa into the sedan chair, Shi Qing immediately urged the "wife" of the sedan chair to carry the person away.

Before leaving, Shi Qing opened the sedan curtain and said half-truth to his uncle, "Uncle, I have a bad temper and hold grudges, and I will hear the slightest remarks about my father and my husband being bad from my relatives in the future. , then you must be deliberately trying to retaliate."

"When the time comes, the direction of the sedan chair will go to the Ministry of Punishment."

"Take it away."

Uncle and grandpa were frightened and did not dare to say a word. The main thing is to see Shi Qing's "sex", and he can really do something wrong.

As soon as the sedan chair was lifted, Shi Qing raised his voice again and said, "Uncle, grandpa, the gift we give back is not too heavy, only three or five agate bracelets, six or seven jade ruyi, and eight or nine gold ingots. You dislike it!"

"!!!"

Uncle Bai Shiqing's meaning didn't catch his breath until Jue passed.

Shiqing wants to cause infighting in his family.

A few of them knew what was in the gift box, but the family didn't. The family only gave Shiqian what good things, after all Shiqing shouted out.

At that time, you will not be able to pick up a few of them to ask for something, if you can't get it out, the family will only think that they are stealing points.

Uncle and grandpa wanted to cry without tears, and patted his thigh.

Why do you sometimes clear people?

The second time he came, he really stole the chicken without losing the rice!

Sin, sin!

Shi Qing smiled and waved at the sedan chair while standing on the road.

Goodbye, see you again~

Behind him, Mrs. Zhang helped the old man to stand at the door, staring blankly at the familiar scene in front of him.

Back then, Qing Bu didn't use any tricks, and sent the old man out directly, but he never went back.

Good guy, now the old man doesn't need to "worry" about what people think of Shijia.

The one who should "worry" should be the uncle.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Shi Ju's house with a smile, "Stand at the door, go in to eat? What about you, father?"

Shi Qing turned his head and sneered, "Come on, uncle, who knows if there is no Hongmen banquet. With your little thought, can I still not know?"

Why don't you send the old man back?

Speaking of doors, there are not even windows!

Especially today when Mrs. Zhang invited them over, why didn't they use their uncle and grandpa to put moral pressure on them?

In the end, who knew that my uncle and grandfather were too pushy, and not only failed to do what Zhang wanted, but offended him instead.

Otherwise, Mrs. Zhang wouldn't join forces with her to send away a "relative".

"Later, I said that I would like to have assessments from time to time, and I would be able to assign positions after passing the test. Then..."

Shi Qing tut.

Mrs Zhang, "..."

Shi Qing stared at Zhang Shi, "Best!"

Shi Qing smiled, "We won't bother you, we'll go out to eat today."

Before leaving, Shi Ju looked at the old man, "Father."

The old man grabbed the cane excitedly.

He actually went back. After all, compared to Zhang's, Li's "sex" was soft and easy to control. What's more, the third family is small, and the living is spacious and comfortable.

But he couldn't keep his face down.

Shi Qing didn't let him go back, and he didn't seem to repent and reflect on the words he said to Mrs. Li today.

"Grandpa, don't worry, we are all fine, you can just live in peace."

Shi Qing held the old man's hand, "Don't worry about us."

"Who cares about you," the old man broke her hand and gambled, "I live well too."

"Since Dad lives well," Shi Ju Shukou, "then I can rest assured."

After all, it is reasonable for the old man to live with his eldest daughter. In particular, other people also think that the stay is very good, so why do you want to take it back?

The old man's mouth trembled twice, and when he watched, the Ju family went back again.

"..."

Shi Qing, it really doesn't please him!

Come and fight him!

It doesn't matter what the old man's mood is, the important thing is that the Shiqing family had a pretty good life today.

The food and tea in the restaurant are much better than those in Shirong's home.

After dinner, the family went to listen to the music and went shopping, watched the lantern festival in the evening, and went back after dinner.

Although it is still half a month before the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lanterns have already been put out in advance, and the atmosphere is not lost.

Shi Qing guessed lantern riddles at night, and gave Yun Zhi a rabbit lantern.

Yun Zhi said how can a man carry the lamp of love, but he refused to let go.

After showering at night before going to bed, Shi Qing wiped her hair out.

Yun Zhi sat at the table and studied how the rabbit lamp was tied, and was about to take it apart.

"Can you do it? Go back and take it apart and put it back together." Shi Qing sat next to him.

Yun Zhi's back instantly straightened, "Who can't?"

He listened to it twice today.

Yun Zhi raised something, his eyes flickered, and he stretched out his hand to poke the rabbit lamp and said, "Aren't you really in a hurry to want a child?"

In the afternoon, Mrs. Li and Shi Ju were afraid that Yunzhi would feel uncomfortable when he heard the words of his uncle and grandpa. They told him that our family was not in a hurry, and they would not let Shi Qing marry Xiao Xiao.

It is typical to take Yunzhi as his own son and it hurts.

Shi Qing smiled, "Are you still thinking about it?"

She got up and leaned over, hugged Yun Zhi from the side, resting half of her body on his shoulders, and whispered in his ear, "No hurry, because you are more precious than anything else."

The moist and fragrant breath blew on the auricle, and Yun Zhi's entire ear turned red with the naked eye, and he was very loving.

His eyelashes fluttered, and he raised his hand to "rub" his nose uncomfortably, and said vaguely, "But I think it's okay to have one."

Shi Qing didn't hear clearly, and tilted his head to look at him.

Yun Zhi turned his head to face Shi Qing, and said with a red face, "Why don't we go alone."

Shi Qing was slightly startled.

Yun put his hand on Shi Qing's waist and said earnestly, "I'll give it to you now."

Especially when Shi Qing, who was emitting hot steam, lay on his shoulders, and Yun Zhi pulled her child.

Yun Zhi stroked Shi Qing's face with his other hand, tilted his head to kiss her neck, and swept his breath at the base of her ear.

The voice is low and hoarse, like coquettish and like "bewitching":

"Shi Qing, let's do it."
