Chapter 20: On the Streets
Chu Shuhuang came to the backyard and lay down in a rattan chair hammock. Pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Chu Shuhuang never forgot the hammock in her previous life, so she deliberately asked people to make this hammock, and it is more humane than the one in her previous life, it is more comfortable to rely on it, and there are lattices on both sides, you can put snacks and fruits or something.
The rattan chair hammock shook slightly, looking at the blue sky, Chu Shuhuang closed his eyes and relaxed slightly. After a while, Chu Shuhuang asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Mama Lin took some seasonal melons and fruits and put them beside her, retreated to her right hand and gently kneaded her wrist, Qinghe and Qingliu had already been sent down by her.
Mama Lin said softly: "The Jiang girl that the princess saved a while ago, the old slave has already asked people to inquire clearly, and it is a little unusual to say. ”
"You may not know that there was originally a second master Xu Qingye in the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, who was the younger brother of the Marquis of Jingyuan, both civil and military, brave and good at fighting, and the Yushu was born in the wind and graceful, and the old Jingyuan Marquis and his wife loved each other like treasures. This Xu Qingye and Hua Shizi's father Hua Qinglan are also known as 'Beijing Shuangqing', and the people who went to Jingyuan's Mansion to propose relatives broke through the threshold. ”
"When Xu Qingye was training in Qingchuan, he fell in love with a talented daughter, and the two fell in love. The Hou Mansion disagreed, but Xu Qingye insisted, and the Marquis of Lao Jingyuan reluctantly agreed. Who wants to get married two years later, Xu Qingye died in Qingchuan, and Mrs. Jingyuan thought that his wife was ominous and expelled her from the house. ”
"This Jiang Li's mother is the sibling sister of Xu Qingye's wife. Jiang Li's father, Jiang Zhongping, was sent to Qingchuan by the Ministry of Industry, and happened to meet Jiang Li's mother, and asked to marry and marry the couple. Later, after Xu Qingye's death, Xu Qingye's wife was expelled from the Xu family, and Jiang Zhongping became more and more dissatisfied with his original wife. After a year, I carried a noble concubine into the door, I heard that it was the concubine of the boss of the Ministry of Industry, and some relatives of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and later after Miss Jiang's mother died, she became a steproom, and it was this steproom that bought the ruffian to assassinate Miss Jiang last time. ”
Chu Shuhuang couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, "It must be unusual for her mother to be able to teach Miss Jiang such a talent." Xu Qingye's wife who wants to come is not an ordinary woman, but unfortunately her fate is unfortunate. ”
Mama Lin sighed and said: "It was a pity that Xu Qingye was a talent in the capital back then, but he didn't want such a young man, how could he admire ordinary women?" ”
"It's a pity, if everything is fine, this Jiang Li must be a daughter, how can she suffer from this?" As he spoke, Chu Shuhuang's eyes lit up and asked, "Doesn't Jiang Li's mother have a dowry?" ”
Mama Lin smiled bitterly: "Naturally, there is, it was Xu Qingye who sent the little girl around him back to Beijing to buy a dowry for him. It's just that Jiang's mother went early, and now she doesn't even have a mother's family, who will stand up for Miss Jiang? ”
Chu Shuhuang sighed lowly, "How is this Jiang girl doing lately?" ”
Mama Lin replied: "The old slave went to Jiang's house last time and gave a good training, and then sent someone to send Miss Jiang back, although they didn't know their identity, they were also frightened by the formation. After Miss Jiang went back, she did something, but she has restrained a lot these days, and she didn't dare to make it too difficult for Miss Jiang. ”
Chu Shuhuang nodded: "If you have time to go to Jiang's house again, just say that I like the clothes she painted for me last time, and ask her to color them, I will make a dress." If you bring more paints for painting, she may be inconvenienced there. ”
After Mama Lin went down, Chu Shuhuang continued to lie in the hammock to rest, and after a while, Qinghe came in, "Princess, the prince sent someone to ask if you would like to go out for a walk, saying that the arrangements he promised you have been arranged, do you want to go and see?" ”
Chu Shuhuang opened his eyes and asked, "Did you say when you would go out?" ”
"If you say you're going, you can leave when the princess finishes freshening up."
"Then we'll talk back and leave in a moment." Chu Shuhuang got up to freshen up, and after a while, he came down to pay respects, and the prince sent someone to deliver something again. Qinghe came in and saw that it was a men's spring shirt with light pink bamboo leaf satin and white edges, covered with a crimson gradient gauze dress, which was just right for Chu Shuhuang's figure. Compared with the body that Yun Ruo found for Chu Shuhuang that day, it is much more luxurious, but today it is in the capital, and there are flowers by his side, so it doesn't matter if he is more public.
Chu Shuhuang also liked it very much, and smiled slightly, "That's it, you two will also go find two men's clothes to change into later." ”
"Yes."
Qinghe and others simply groomed Chu Shuhuang, changed into a men's spring shirt, hung a purse of the same color and Hetian jade pendant on his waist, and tied the hair on his head with a gorgeous head rope inlaid with rubies as flowers with a gold thread. Moist skin with a pink halo, a straight nose, big black eyes, what a jade doll.
Qinghe and Qingliu went to find a suit for the two little guys to change into, and their hair was tied back behind their heads, and they followed Chu Shuhuang out.
Chu Shuhuang didn't use a soft sedan chair, and when he walked to the fork in the road leading to Zizhuyuan, he saw Hua Chang and people waiting there. Hua Chang was dressed in a light purple brocade robe, with a long posture, a jade belt around his waist, and a clear face. It seems that except for the first time we met, I was dressed in plain white, and the rest of the time was so flamboyant, although the appearance was not the best, but the whole person was so eye-catching.
Hua Chang stood sideways, and when Chu Shuhuang came closer, he turned around and walked side by side towards the second gate, Chu Shuhuang didn't have anything to say, so he quietly walked towards the second gate.
The carriage had already been prepared for Chu Shuhuang on the second door, and Hua Chang's mount was in front of the carriage. Hua Chang turned around suddenly, Chu Shuhuang looked up, and saw Hua Chang staring at him coldly.
Chu Shuhuang blinked, Hua Chang still didn't mean to speak, Chu Shuhuang looked Hua Chang up and down, thinking in his heart, "What's wrong?" Hua Chang turned around and walked forward, freezing Chu Shuhuang in place.
This, this is a real neurosis! As soon as I feel that others are better, I will come out again, always hit a stick and give a sweet date!
Chu Shuhuang also ignored it and walked towards the carriage. Qinghe Qingliu hurriedly helped Chu Shuhuang into the carriage, Hua Chang turned over on the horse and walked out.
In the carriage, Chu Shuhuang was still thinking about what Hua Chang meant, he threw himself like that in the early morning, he hadn't said anything yet, he still had an opinion? After thinking about it for a while, Chu Shuhuang felt that he should not be angry with his shop and other courtyards, which was really stingy!!
The imperial palace in the capital of Chu is solemn and majestic in the north, and the momentum is majestic; The eastern district is the residence of the noble officials, and it is lined up one after another; The western district is rich businessmen, and there are also many high-ranking officials and nobles who have purchased courtyards, pavilions and pavilions, and green tiles in Zhu Lou; The southern district is a poor area, mostly small doors and small courtyards, and it is cluttered.
In the middle is Suzaku Street, a commercial street with flowers in Beijing, which runs through the north and south, where the rich and noble buy property for pleasure, and the poor beg for help to survive here.
There is also a special place that there is a river in the southwest of the capital, which is called Yan River. There are many shops on the riverside embankment, pedestrians are weaving, flowers are blooming, and merchants gather.
The shop arranged by Hua Chang for Chu Shuhuang is not on the commercial street that runs through the north and south, nor is it next to the Yan River, but on the upward street between the two, between the high-ranking and aristocratic districts in the east and the poor districts in the south.
After the carriage stopped, Chu Shuhuang got out of the car with the help of Qinghe, which was a two-story shop facing the street with a large surface. Look around, there are restaurants, teahouses, medicine halls, inns, the location can not be said to be bad, but there is no ready-to-wear shop within a radius of one mile.
