On the Zhuangzi, the courtyard where the An family lived was specially paved with bluestone slabs, and there were no water marks on the second day.

Although the weather is sunny, but it is not as sunny as before, after breakfast, it is not so hot, Wu and Tong teasing Chengye to play in the yard, Liu Niang is in a daze with her cheeks on the side, Brother Qing said that if she has not returned home when he is resting, he will come to the village to see her, but the brothers are not there, and his father and mother are in the same yard, how can he see him?

Zhuang Tou sent his wife and brother and daughter-in-law over to help, his wife was sincere, buried in the kitchen to help Zhi Niang work, did not ask or speak, but his brother and daughter-in-law were lively, heard the excitement ahead, packed up a few small melons and sent them over, interjected in a few words, and began to talk about the things on the Zhuangzi, Liu Niang's heart moved, leading her to chat.

"Now the lotus flowers in the pond are just right, my daughter picked one back a few days ago, it is the size of a bowl!"

"I heard that the water in the pond was brought by Zhuangzi who dug the waterway himself?"

"That place was originally low-lying, the soil is not good, can not grow things, and a short distance to the west is the river, my eldest brother took advantage of the slack time to lead the people of Zhuangzi to dig a small ditch, one is convenient for irrigation on our village, and the other is to plant lotus root and raise fish...... Oh, there isn't much to produce, and the ones that are selected every year are sent to the master's family, and there are some that can't be entered by the master's family. ”

Tong'er snickered behind her, even Shi Qing pursed the corners of her mouth, this daughter-in-law is also interesting, while wanting to boast about her eldest brother's ability, she is afraid that the main family will think that this place is good, and she will ask them more when she goes back.

Liuniang Waner. When the water is clear, there are no fish, and the An family has its own rules, and it is not her turn to worry about these things with a daughter-in-law. Still innocent and curious, he asked her: "It's so good, I want to go and see it, but I'm afraid that the road will not be easy." It's so annoying to step on a foot of mud. ”

The daughter-in-law thought for a while and said, "The lady can have thicker shoes?" Our village is adjacent to the river, so we will carry some stones back to pave the ground in our spare time, and then dry for half a day on this day, the lady wears thick-soled shoes, be careful. It should be fine. ”

"Tong'er, do I have new high and low laces?"

Liuniang, who had seen Tong's high and low shoes, and was obsessed with her height, pestered Wu to make it for her. I wore it at home once, walked around, and the bottom was made of wood, which was not lighter than modern high heels. Wear it once in a while, just forget it. I don't usually wear it much, and Liuniang is afraid that Tong'er didn't bring it.

Tong'er thought about it, but she didn't remember that she asked Shi Qing to bring this, and was about to bring it back, Shi Qing had already said: "Bring it, I'll go find out for the lady." ”

Tong'er was slightly surprised, went into the house with her to look for it, and asked in a low voice, "I remember I didn't let you bring this?"

"I saw it when I was packing my shoes. Thinking that it is difficult for the lady to come out to play once, maybe she will use it on a whim. Just clean it up by the way, anyway, let's take the car, and it won't be troublesome to have one or two more pairs. ”

“……”

Tong'er looked at her calm and smiling face, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Outside, Liuniang was pestering the Wu family: "Mother, I'll just go and take a walk, okay?"

Tong persuaded: "Why don't we wait for tomorrow together......?"

"I took Tong'er and Shi Qing and let Sister-in-law Zhang lead us, so many people!"

Tong has to persuade again, Wu has already opened a condition: "You can't go far, you can't go out of Zhuangzi, you can look at the lotus, you can't get close to the pond!"

"Don't worry, mother, I spare my life very much!"

"You girl, what are you talking about!" Wu scolded with a smile, and agreed, and comforted Tong: "In the afternoon, your second uncle was about to go fishing by the river, and he happened to carry her, and it didn't matter if her father was in town." ”

Tong smiled and didn't persuade again, but he was slandering in his heart, the second uncle spoiled his daughter, can he stop it?

Rui Wang's Mansion. Yuyan and the little maid muttered a naughty laugh under the corridor, so that Aunt Wang bumped into each other, scolded a few times, and several people quickly dispersed, Aunt Wang called Yuyan: "Why don't you serve in front of the prince?"

"I went out early in the morning and didn't know where I went. ”

Aunt Wang hated that iron could not be made of steel, so she quietly twisted her: "I easily transferred you to the study, and served in front of the world every day, why did you ...... That's it......"

Facing Yuyan's ignorant eyes, Aunt Wang couldn't bear to be ruthless, just sighed, choosing such a girl out of thousands of choices, thinking that it was a matter of course, why was it so difficult?

"Auntie, I've done everything. ”

"What have you done? It turns out that you have done all the close work of dressing and folding in the house, what have you done? It is so easy to put you in the study, and the red sleeves are fragrant and close to the water and the building, what are you doing for me?"

Yuyan was aggrieved: "It turned out that I had done it to hand over towels and take clothes, but now I don't even have a helper to clean the house, grind ink and lay paper, and I do more than before!"

Aunt Wang was stumped in one breath, and couldn't help beating her again: "You're going to be angry with me!"

Not to mention how Aunt Wang educated Yuyan, a few fast horses went out of Beijing, and the servants were on the side to guide the way, but Zhao Jinyuan was a little dazed.

What is he doing? Why is he doing it?

The closer Zhao Jinyuan was to the Zhuangzi of Anjia, the more hesitant he became, and his face was not obvious, but the speed of the horse slowly slowed down, until he saw the Zhuangzi, and the servant pointed out: "Shizi, that's it." ”

Changxi said: "Don't call the door yet." ”

"No, I don't. ”

Zhao Jinyuan stopped his horse: "Where is there a place to drink horses nearby, take a rest first." ”

Changxi was a little confused, what does it mean to rush out in a hurry early in the morning and pass through the door without entering?

The servant replied, "Not far from it, there is a small river where you can drink horses." ”

"Let's go. ”

pondered all the way, until he arrived at the river to see Zhao Jinyuan let the horse drink water, he bent down and washed his face, Changxi flashed with a flash of inspiration, oh, all the way, how can the prince go to see other people's little ladies like this?

Chang Xi, who thought he had a plan, approached and handed a towel to Zhao Jinyuan to wipe his face, and said diligently: "Shizi, the little one will help you re-tie your hair, this way is a little loose!"

“……”

Zhao Jinyuan threw the towel that wiped his face in his face: "What are so many things!"

I sat down by the river, a little dazed.

Why did he come? What did he do? Why did the more I thought about it, the more confused my heart became?

The answer is actually very clear, he came to see her, but why did he have to go to such lengths to meet her?

This is not a "chance encounter" in the teahouse, this is him deliberately traveling dozens of miles just to see her.

Why?

At that time, the children would be confused because of sudden changes, and occasionally she warned her to stabilize their minds, and every time I saw her during that time, I seemed to be more sober and stronger. Now, after a few years of tempering, he is no longer the proud and fragile child, what else can he get from her......?
