Xu Wanzhen's temperament has always been light, and when she was rarely seen so eager, all the maids were happy in their hearts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Knowing that she was anxious, Xu Wenmin stopped selling Guan Zi and told her everything he saw and heard in the Tu family. At the end, he said: "Zhen'er, don't worry, the second son of the He family is really happy to see it." With his protection, Fang Yan will not suffer if she marries. ”

Xu Wanzhen nodded, in fact, she knew it in her heart, and she was only relieved to hear it with her own ears.

When Xu Wenmin left, she lay on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep. I was thinking about Tu Fangyan's marriage, and I thought of myself, I don't know what it would be like to wait until the day I got married?

……

After a few more days, the weather became hotter and hotter, and even the rain could not dissipate the heat.

Xu Wanzhen got up half an hour early, and Cai Si combed her black hair finely, pulled a girl's hanging hair into a bun, and pressed it with a tortoiseshell ivory comb. The rest of the hair is tied in a swallowtail and tied with a string of pearls the size of a grain of rice.

After pulling his hair, Sang Zi took the rouge and other things, and put on a thin layer of makeup. made her look cold and added a bit of agility.

The clothes have been picked a long time ago, a lotus lotus-colored woven silver silk sprinkled with flowers pleated skirt, paired with a white embroidered peony half arm, more than stable, but not enough to stand out.

Sang Zi sighed: "Miss, this dress doesn't show your goodness. ”

Xu Wanzhen's temperament is cold and noble, like an empty valley orchid. Although the fabric of this dress is good, and the peony pattern is graceful and luxurious, it is a vulgar thing and is not suitable for her.

She smiled slightly, she couldn't show it, she wanted this effect.

After taking the crystallization of the clear moon flower of the Drain Spring, she was like being reborn. She knows the changes in her body, and just from the outside, she also has a fluttering and dusty temperament.

But with Wu Jiao here, today's "Summer Banquet" is a tough battle, she dresses appropriately and conveniently, and she doesn't want to be in the limelight and attract attention.

Cai Si opened the makeup box, and Xu Wanzhen picked a pair of mutton fat jade willow leaf earrings and put them on. This banquet is held for her, and no one can take it lightly.

After packing up, she came to Ronghui Hall to greet Mrs. Xu. As soon as he sat down, Qingju came to report that the carriage of the Anguo Mansion had arrived.

Old Madam Xu asked Xu Wanzhen to stand up, looked at it carefully, and asked Yulu to take out a piece of ice jade pendant with a snow-white and translucent body, and tie the corners of her skirt to tie it, before she nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's a pity that you are still in filial piety, and the bright colors can't be used." ”

It's not that she favors her own granddaughter, although the woman in front of her is young, she has a refined temperament and outstanding appearance, and she will be able to overwhelm all beings in two years. I don't know if it's my own delusion, Mrs. Xu always feels that in this short period of time, Xu Wan is really a little more dusty.

After leaving her grandmother, Xu Wanzhen took silk picking and green wheat together, and got on the green curtain carriage of the Anguo Mansion at the Hanging Flower Gate.

The annex of the Anguo Mansion is in the eastern suburbs, where the terrain is gentle, there are mountains and rivers, and the big families in Beijing have industries there. The carriage went all the way to the east, passing through the courtyard of the "Hefeng", and then passing through the Xu family's workshop, and drove deeper into the mountains.

About two quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped.

Qingmai jumped out of the car first, and a general corner servant at the gate of the courtyard came over with a small wooden stool, and Qingmai helped Xu Wanzhen down.

Standing still on the ground, Xu Wanzhen took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and the beautiful scenery in front of her made people feel refreshed.

She had been to the eastern suburbs several times, but she had never entered this hill. I saw the green grass, the birds chirping, and the eyes were full of layers of lush green. There was a mountain breeze caressing, and the leaves rattled. Looking into the distance, under the cover of greenery, occasionally there is a corner of the pavilion cornice, and the melodious sound of the eaves bell is heard.

Today's visitors were all women's dependents, so they all got off the carriage at the courtyard gate. Xu Wanzhen, as one of the masters, came early in the morning, and only a few carriages were parked at the door.

It seems that the stepmother has arrived, Xu Wanzhen thought secretly, and walked in with the help of Caisi.

She is now light and does not need help. It's just that as a young lady, the personal maid around you is a must.

After walking a few steps, a round-faced, well-dressed maid greeted her, smiled and saluted Xu Wanzhen: "Second Miss has arrived?" I'm half a plum by Madame's side. Sensing that you were almost there, Madame sent me to wait for Miss. ”

Xu Wanzhen is on the genealogy of the Shi family, and Mrs. Zhuang only raises two young ladies under her knees, according to the ranking, she is older than Shi Jingfu, so she is naturally the second miss. The first time I heard someone call her second miss, she was quite uncomfortable.

nodded with a smile and said, "It turned out to be Sister Banmei next to my stepmother, and I was tired." ”

The maid next to the housemother, as a young lady, can naturally be called a sister. What's more, she is just a righteous daughter, so it's not strange to have many people.

Banmei hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be a sister, the second lady can call a girl." ”

Xu Wanzhen naturally entered the stream from goodness, and said: "Miss Banmei, where are the stepmothers now?" ”

Banmei led the way first, introducing the scenery of this courtyard along the way, and said: "We can see a large lotus pond when we walk along this flower path. Madame, eldest lady, and second lady were in the gazebo over there. ”

The further you go inside, the quieter it becomes, and the sound of gurgling water can be heard, and the summer heat is swept away here. The scenery of the annex is obviously from the hands of the master, and there is no trace of artificial carving, and it is full of natural wildness.

"Madame is afraid of heat, and every summer day, she will come here to live here for a while." Banmei is lively and talkative, and it is most appropriate to take on the role of guiding the way.

Under her explanation, Xu Wanzhen also had a general understanding of this courtyard.

Just like the rich area in the previous life, there are only a few places with the best scenery on the same mountain, all of which are occupied by the people at the top of the pyramid. It's all the eastern suburbs, and the environment here is the best. In addition to the Anguo Mansion, the other three major Governorates also have annexes here.

When I arrived at the lotus pond, a large lotus leaf field. Before the season of lotus blooming, I saw the flawless buds of white jade, standing slim in the middle.

The sound of rushing water came, and Xu Wanzhen saw the pavilion in Banmei's mouth.

She gasped, what kind of gazebo is this, it is clearly a water house! I saw that the pavilion was built on a deep turquoise pool, connected by a white marble bridge.

A waterfall cascades down the mountain, splashing at the top of the pavilion and reflecting the sun's rays. The water flow is skillfully directed, filling the entire roof of the gazebo and descending down the sink. Except for the front of the entrance, a uniform curtain of water is formed on the other three sides of the pavilion, dripping into the deep pool below.

It's a real thing! Xu Wan was truly amazed.
