The palace that the emperor specially gave to his aunt will naturally not be missed.

If there is anything special about this courtyard, it is that the whole courtyard is on the water, facing the water everywhere, and connecting to the bridge everywhere.

The water feature of this annex is unique, and it leads to a hot spring not far away, so that at this time, the lotus flowers are still blooming, and the lotus fragrance fills the nose everywhere.

There is neither the summer heat nor the autumn residual lotus, and the flower banquet of the eldest princess Yunde is just right.

Autumn is bright, the sky is high and the clouds are light, it stands to reason that it is the most suitable for playing, but unfortunately on the day of the flower banquet, it rained sparsely again, which is really unexpected. Fortunately, the rain was not too heavy, and there was no one in the capital who did not give face to the eldest princess Yunde, and everyone arrived as promised.

Yu Ting took his little nephew, who had been eating and drinking for several days, to find his mother for him. The serious place of the female dependent, it was inconvenient for him to go over as a foreign man, so he had to look left and right, and found a hexagonal pavilion on the side of the rockery, and happened to go to avoid the rain.

He hugged Peng Ge'er, went up the stone steps all the way, and when he arrived at the pavilion, he took the oil-paper umbrella, wiped the stone bench wet with the drizzle with a handkerchief, and pulled Peng Ge'er to sit down.

He had just sent a message to Xiaoling, asking her to come and get her son, and it was the right time for this rain to fall, sitting in this pavilion that was a little higher, and taking in the misty and rainy ink painting scene of the courtyard.

It's a pity that I could have listened to the sound of the rain by the railing, but I didn't want the sound of talking to come from the rockery under the pavilion.

Peng Ge'er also heard it, he picked up the fence, stretched out his little head to look down, but couldn't see anything, and when he turned around, he saw his uncle, a little stunned.

The voices of the two women talking came from below, because it was a homely thing to talk about, and there was nothing that others couldn't hear, so they didn't hide it and choked, they just wanted to find a secluded place to talk, but they didn't want to be listened to by Yu Ting's uncle and nephew.

“…… Your mother was in a hurry, and she sent you and your younger brother to Zhuangzi to keep filial piety, which delayed your marriage. Does your father have a claim? It was an older woman who spoke.

It was a young woman who replied to her, and she smiled rather sarcastically, before saying, "What can he say?" It's up to Aunt Pang to decide. I don't know that I have a concubine, but I want my aunt to be the main marriage match, what kind of reason is this? ”

When she said this, she paused for a moment, as if she was faintly angry, and said: "Aunt doesn't know, when my mother was there, she pressed Aunt Pang to the point that she couldn't turn over, and now that she has gained power, she is in a hurry to marry me off." I was old, and I didn't have a good reputation in Beijing, so I first found a widower, and then I found a merchant from the north and south, if I didn't want to be killed, I was really sent out by my father. ”

As soon as her voice fell, the older woman said fiercely, "Slut! ”

Then she said: "Peng'er, don't worry, you are back in the capital this time, and your grandmother and aunt will find a good family for you no matter what." We can't delay any longer, let that slut get cheap! ”

The woman said this menacingly, and after the silence was uttered, there was a moment of silence.

Yu Ting was in the pavilion, and when he heard these words, he became more and more sure that the two people below were Guo Peng, the second girl of Guo, and her aunt, Mrs. Gu.

Somehow, he raised his hand and touched Brother Peng'er's little head, gave him a silent gesture, and then heard Guo Peng's words again.

"Although my aunt is kind-hearted, but my rough reputation is here, and I am involved with the family who collaborated with the enemy and treason, I am afraid that everyone in Beijing knows that no one dares to take this risk and marry me back as a daughter-in-law."

She said something funny. can hear Yu Ting's ears, and somehow he heard some loneliness.

"My son, you can't say that! It's because you're lucky that you just escaped that family, otherwise your aunt wouldn't have dared to imagine the consequences! ”

When Second Mrs. Gu said this, she sighed: "Although I am not as good as your mother to do some housework, husband and children, but I can also find a good family for you." I originally thought that your second cousin was the same age, and let the two of you get married, I don't have anything to worry about. It's just that your cousin is still in Wudang Mountain and hasn't come back, and he said early on that he will not be able to return home until he is twenty years old......"

Guo Peng didn't care about whether she could marry her second cousin, but asked with interest: "I haven't seen my second cousin for many years, I don't know if my second cousin's weaknesses are all well?" ”

Perhaps talking about what Second Lady Gu cared about the most, she hurriedly laughed and said: "It's all complete, your brother-in-law went to Wudang Mountain a few months ago, and when he saw him once, he said that he was almost unrecognizable, he was tall, his body was strong, and he was full of energy when he spoke." You don't know ......"

Second Mrs. Gu wanted to continue to say this, but she saw someone coming over on the path not far from her.

On the misty and rainy path, a maid followed, held an oil-paper umbrella, lifted her skirt in vain, and walked slowly over It was Yu Xiaoling who came to pick up her son.

She saw that Second Lady Gu was here, and hurriedly greeted her: "Second Lady is here, my aunt and wife, I am saying that I can't find you." ”

When she came, Second Mrs. Gu and Guo Peng's words could not continue, Second Mrs. Gu replied with a light smile: "I haven't seen the girl from my sister's family for a few years, I just pulled her out and said a few words, and I talked too much, but I called my sister-in-law easy to find." ”

After saying this, she turned back to Guo Peng and said, "Peng'er, I've seen Mrs. Zhongqinbo." ”

Guo Peng hurriedly bent his knees to Yu Xiaoling to salute, and shouted Mrs., Yu Xiaoling avoided it sideways, looked at Guo Peng with a smile, and turned around in his heart, she was the girl who slapped Zhu Huiyu twice, and couldn't help but like it a little in her heart, and said: "Miss Guo is a good talent, even in Beijing, she can count them." ”

Guo Peng got her compliment, but I didn't know if she was genuinely praising or fake sarcasm, so she couldn't help but look up at her.

She glanced up at Yu Xiaoling, and felt very kind, as if she had seen her somewhere. But she didn't think out where she had seen it, but Second Mrs. Gu was humble for her, so she said that it was not good to let Mrs. Gu wait for a long time, and left with her.

Yu Xiaoling looked at the figures of the two leaving, and then looked up at the two uncles and nephews who were blinking in the pavilion above, and couldn't help laughing.

She walked up the stairs a few steps, looked at the two of them and said, "But you don't hear people talking? ”

"Where? We're new to it, too. ”

Yu Ting subconsciously wanted to cover it up, but Brother Peng was on the side, and threw himself into Yu Xiaoling's arms, and his mouth pierced him.

"Uncle wants to listen, don't let Peng'er speak!" 10
