69 Chapter 69
The King of Pingle County was full of annoyance, and pointed at Jiang Yi, who was forced to kneel on the ground, and said angrily: "Bastard thing, if I hadn't ordered someone to stop you today, you would just run away to stir up the family affairs of the Qi State Mansion, in vain you are still a child of the clan, and you have done this kind of bastard thing, if you really let you do it, my people will also be lost!" โ
Jiang Yi was forcibly pressed by several palace guards, but his expression was as unruly as a wolf, he didn't struggle, and asked instead, "Is she married now?" โ
Seeing that he was still thinking about this, the king of Pingle County was so angry that he trembled, almost stood unsteadily, and said hatefully: "The third girl has married into the Qi State Mansion, worshiped the hall and entered the cave room, and now she is the wife of the righteous governor, you can't remember it in your life!" โ
Jiang Yi's eyes were cold, Rao is the king of Pingle County is his own father, and his neck was also cold when he saw this gaze, and then he was furious: "Last time, you designed to frame his own brother in order to marry the third girl, do you know how much effort I wasted to put it down for you?!" I thought that if I sent you to Lingnan for three or four months, you would be able to restrain yourself, but I didn't expect that as soon as I came back, I almost caused this kind of trouble again, bastard, waste! โ
The more he spoke, the more angry he became, snatched the horsewhip from the hand of the subordinate on the side, and whipped it down with a slash on his face: "In vain, I value you so much, I almost ruined my future for a woman, and I want to forcibly take โกโก today, you don't know what to do!" โ
Jiang Yi didn't dodge or dodge, it seemed that the person was still here, but his heart had drifted elsewhere, and when he had enough, he licked the blood at the corner of his mouth, and the corner of his right lip provoked: "Isn't there a saying that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked..."
He looked at the stunned face of the king of Pingle County: "I learned this from my father." โ
The hand holding the whip suddenly stopped, and his fingertips turned white: "What do you know?!" โ
Jiang Yi smiled: "According to my father's precedent, I have to think of letting Yan He die before I can hold the beauty into my arms." โ
......
Chonglan soaked in the wide wooden barrel, and weakly wanted to raise his hand to grab him, but he didn't expect to push it for a long time but didn't push it, so he could only say weakly: "Good brother, you can spare me." โ
There was a hint of flattery in this lazy tone, she still pressed one hand on her chest, which was simply the most irritating flirt for a man, he held her hand down, and said softly: "I spare you, who will spare me?" โ
Chonglan was coldly pulled by him to hold the place, and subconsciously wanted to pull his hand, but he hugged him with a full embrace, grinding his movements in the warm water with flower petals, she whimpered with his movements, and kept asking him to be lighter.
It was another round of violent storm, she was like being beaten by the wind and rain and the peony flower in his arms, tired but amazingly charming, he was a little moved, but he also knew that she couldn't stand it again, so he leaned over and kissed her forehead, helped her wash again, wiped it dry and carried it to the bed.
Chonglan's sleepy eyes only felt that her whole body was sore, and there was a hot pain, just at this time, a ray of sunlight hit the big red background embroidered five bats holding clouds and flowers in the tent, she opened her eyes in a daze, raised her hand to lift the tent and wanted to call someone.
Yan He walked in wearing a plain white shirt with a pine crane pattern, raised his hand and touched her face: "I specially asked people not to call you, why don't you sleep more?" โ
She struggled to open her eyes and look at the sun, and then got up in a panic: "I still have to see my parents and elders in the morning." She stiffened her waist coldly, and her waist immediately ached, and she almost fell down with a sigh.
He hurriedly reached out to hold her, and his thin lips pressed against her earlobe: "Does it still hurt?" He stroked her cheek with pity: "I asked, the woman is like this the first time, and she will be happy in the future." โ
Chonglan blushed and spat him: "You are serious, what are you happy or not." โ
He raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you happy?" So who turned pink last night and hugged me hard, trembling all over, and kept calling me a good brother? โ
She was so embarrassed that she sneered aggressively: "I see that you were quite skilled last night, I'm afraid you have already used the concubine's room to have a room, who swore to me before getting married that there was no one else!" โ
It's a matter of innocence, he tightened his brows, and he was as calm as before, and it was rare to be anxious: "Don't you believe me?" โ
He took his hand and probed into his clothes, and the person leaned down again, pursed his lips and said with a cold face: "Since you don't believe it, then test it carefully, and if you can get out of bed today, it will be considered a lie." โ
How can this and this be tested? She was dumbfounded: "What does this have to do with not being able to get out of bed?" โ
He pinched her chin, quite a half-smiling: "Because there is no woman next to me, I leave all my energy to you, so that you can't get out of bed satisfied." โ
This fallacy... His last few words were quite a bit of gnashing of teeth, Chonglan didn't dare to say more, seeing that he began to pick out his middle shirt, he covered his front placket and said: "I believe in you, I believe in you, it's just a matter of asking more." โ
She frowned and blushed and pushed him: "Don't be today... I'm still in pain. โ
He blushed after hearing this, and finally let go of his hand, she hurriedly changed Qingge Qingyun to freshen up, and there was a grandmother who came to collect Yuanpa, she looked at the gorgeous peach blossom blood on it, her heart was complicated, and she couldn't catch a glimpse of other stains on Yuanpa, and suddenly blushed and didn't dare to look more.
Yan He also changed into a red dress, she didn't look carefully at him wearing red clothes yesterday, she always felt that it was awkward for an indifferent person like him to wear red, but today she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, a beauty is a beauty in the end, and she is beautiful in any color.
He changed his clothes and waited for her on the side, until the two of them packed up and stopped before taking her out, usually the first day of the new marriage is to worship her parents, but Yan and her mother died early, she thought that she was going to worship the tablet, but she didn't expect to be led directly to the main hall, and the old lady Yan sat on the top, and Yan Sansi sat on the side.
Yan Sansi said that the ugly thing is that he is a mouse-eyed, and he knows that Yan He can't enter the palace, and he doesn't care about who he marries, no matter whether he marries a high-ranking girl or a merchant girl, he is not the emperor anyway.
For such a reason, he was quite polite to Chonglan, but he just said a few words with a straight face to open up the branches and leaves for the Yan family, and Chonglan lowered his head with a slightly red face.
Mrs. Yan's face is much more ugly, she doesn't want Yan He to marry Chonglan, first, she dislikes the status of the family, and secondly, she is worried that her grandson will repeat her son's mistakes.
According to the number of etiquette, he handed her a mutton fat white jade bracelet, and then he ate the tea bowl in his hand, and said with an unhappy face: "Why did you come so late today, don't you know that there are elders waiting in the family?" โ
She looked at Yan He again in a blink of an eye: "And Brother He'er is also late, you don't persuade and mention it from the side, but the two of them are both late, treat the elders so slowly, that's how you do it to the juniors?" โ
Chonglan thought of Fang Cai's scene, and said in her heart that if she persuaded the two of them again, she was afraid that they would both roll into bed, and at this time explaining everything was a pretext, and she was very shameful and admitted her mistake: "It's all granddaughter-in-law's, grandmother don't be angry." โ
Old Madam Yan was about to speak, but Ning suddenly said: "There is no size in the three days of the wedding, my mother just reminds you a few words, where will I blame you?" โ
She turned her head to Mrs. Yan and smiled: "I know that my mother is sympathetic to us, and it is common for the young couple to be more affectionate, we all came from that time, besides, it didn't take long to wait." โ
Yan He took the initiative to say: "It's me who got up late, and Lan Lan was also late in order to take care of me washing." โ
Chonglan lowered his head to hide the corners of his mouth, although he had long known his intentions, but he still felt in a good mood when he saw him defending himself in front of his elders.
Old Madam Yan was so angry that Chonglan didn't see it, she took the purse and gold bills from Qingge and distributed them to Yan Sansi's children, and when it was Yan Ning's turn, she blinked lightly, making Yan Xiaofat's face red.
Yan He glanced at him, and when Mrs. Yan saw that the ceremony was completed, she lightly ordered someone to set the meal, waiting for the food to be sent up like flowing water, and the men and women were placed on both sides, and she wanted to step forward to help the cloth vegetables.
Unexpectedly, Old Madam Yan waved her hand casually and said lightly, "You sit down first." โ
Chonglan was stunned, but still sat down according to her words, Mrs. Yan scooped a spoonful of japonica rice porridge for herself and drank it, then put down the white porcelain spoon, and said to Chonglan with a relaxed expression: "You and Brother He are just newly married, everything in the house is busy, and Brother He has only recently served as the governor, and he is also busy with official business, you must know this." โ
Chonglan adhered to the principle of saying more and making more mistakes, but just said: "Daughter-in-law Sun knows." โ
Seeing that she didn't answer, Mrs. Yan had no choice but to take care of herself: "Men are busy outside, so we should be more sympathetic as women." โ
Chonglan raised her eyebrows: "What does grandmother mean?" โ
Old Madam Yan said: "How about you postpone the time of returning to Ning for a few days, return to Ning on the ninth day, and then let Brother He accompany you to Ningning, how about it?" โ
Guining is the first time the girl gets married and returns to her parents' house, usually on the second, third or seventh day, if she returns to Ning on the ninth day, her mother's family and her face will be lost.
The ancestral house of the Chong family and the tablet of Chonglan's parents are not in Jinling, and Brother Da insists on setting the Guining banquet in Jiangning. Originally, Chonglan was afraid of worrying about Yan He's official affairs, so she thought about holding a banquet in Jinling Chongfu, but she didn't expect Aunt Chong to hear about it and immediately rushed to persuade her, and said such a thing.
"We are women, we should be virtuous and considerate, but we must be hypocritical when we should be hypocritical, and we must be small when we should be small, and we will be able to grasp the proportion. Otherwise, after a long time of virtuous life, men will take your concession for granted, and your husband's family will also think that you are weak and easy to bully, so they will rub you round and flatten. โ
She didn't think much of this at the time, but now that she thinks about it, it makes sense, what an important etiquette the Guining banquet is, and before that, Old Madam Yan began to want to pinch her.
But at this time, she can't refute directly, otherwise it will be unvirtuous, she put down her chopsticks and said in surprise: "On the third day, Guining, wasn't it discussed between my husband and my eldest brother?" Could it be that he told the old lady that he had something to do recently, and he could not be idle until the ninth day? โ
After she finished speaking, she burst into tears and said aggrievedly: "I didn't hear him mention it last night, do you want to tell me that I won't allow it?" I also ran to my grandmother and told me, as if I didn't understand how unreasonable. โ
Old Madam Yan didn't have a big idea, and when she heard her question, her face was embarrassed: "It's not that I told my brother to me..."
Chonglan was angry in his heart, so he didn't let go, made a look of grievance on his face, and pressed the corner of his eye with a silk: "Don't hide it for him, it's not what he said, can't you guess it yourself?" โ
Old Madam Yan's face was even more embarrassed, her old face turned red, and she coughed: "I thought that my brother and I had just taken office, and there should be a lot of things, and Jiang Ning had a long way to go, so I opened this mouth for him." โ
Chonglan's eyes widened and teary eyes, and he blinked puzzledly: "You really guessed it yourself." โ
There were a few snickerers on the table, but she should have held back, and Mrs. Yan was so angry that she almost dropped her chopsticks: "You give me the right words, should it be or not?" โ
Before Chonglan could speak, Yan He's voice from the men's table outside came softly: "There are not many official affairs in the Governor's Palace, but I, who is the governor, do not know as much as my grandmother, so I am really derelict in my duty." โ
Seeing that he was so protective of Chonglan, Old Madam Yan said angrily: "I'm afraid that you have delayed your official business for the private relationship between men and women!" โ
Yan He said indifferently outside: "It just so happens that I also have something to do in Jiangning, and the two sides are cheap, so I don't have to worry about my grandmother." โ
Chonglan lowered her head and made a cramped appearance, Old Madam Yan was so angry that she only drank two mouthfuls of porridge, and so many people couldn't throw their sleeves away when they saw it, so they had to sit in the first place.
Chonglan buried her head in drinking porridge, thinking that she was here to eat, but her ears were still quiet, and a lady in the sixth room on the table, who said her dowry yesterday, joked half-shaded: "I am still blessed with my brother and daughter-in-law, and my husband protects me like this, even the elders dare to contradict it." I heard that you and Brother He knew each other before they got married, and now it looks like it's true. โ
Chong Lan smiled lightly: "I don't understand what the sixth aunt said, the husband is just worried about the old lady's body, afraid that she is worried about overwork, why is it a contradiction?" โ
The lady's face stiffened, and she had a kind attitude, and she couldn't find fault with what she said, so she had to say with a smile: "He and his brother and daughter-in-law are used to doing business, and their mouths are neat, and they will come up with so many words after a while." โ
Chonglan pretended not to understand, and said with a smile: "It's all because of the kindness of the sixth aunt, so I can't help but say more." โ
In fact, she could guess the thoughts of this group of people, but she was just watching a merchant marry the eldest grandson of Qi Guofu, and in the future, she would have to go in and out with their so-called Gaomen ladies and eat at the same table, so she felt uncomfortable.
A woman next to her turned the bracelet on her wrist, looked at a crack on the jade bracelet, and sighed: "Why is this missing?" โ
The sixth lady saw the opportunity, deliberately glanced at Chonglan, and answered with a smile: "It's better to let Brother He's daughter-in-law show you, I heard that she is doing these businesses in her shop, and she will definitely be able to repair them." โ
After the two finished speaking, as if they had heard something very funny, Qi Qi covered his mouth with a silk and laughed.
Chonglan squinted her eyes and was about to speak, when a woman dressed plainly put down her chopsticks and said lightly: "The two younger siblings are cautious, the juniors are here, don't let them look at the joke." โ
The sixth aunt said reluctantly: "The fifth sister-in-law mentioned it." "I really stopped talking.
Chonglan was stunned, and carefully looked at the woman who opened her mouth to help herself, and saw that she was dressed very simply, dressed plainly white from head to toe, and her head was simply covered with a wooden hairpin.
She smiled gratefully at the fifth lady, who only nodded, and then looked away.
By now, the banquet has almost eaten, and suddenly someone outside the eaves of the main hall reported loudly: "Old lady, Guogong, the emperor sent someone to make a decree to come down, and the young lady is the lady of the second grade, and now people are waiting outside for us to go over and receive the decree to thank you!" โ
As soon as these words came out, the people in the room fell silent, almost unable to believe their ears, especially the sixth lady who had sarcastically mocked her just now, and looked at her with her mouth wide open.
Chonglan bowed his head shyly, got up and saluted: "Since the emperor has a decree, then I will go to receive the decree first." โ
Fortunately, the Yan family is the public mansion in the end, and the incense case used to receive the decree is still prepared, so he hurriedly accepted the decree, and saw the chamberlain smiling and handing her the peony bead and jade bead knot golden crown and Yunxia Zhai Wenxia worn by the second-grade wife, and awarded the gold seal treasure book, and the people in the Yan Mansion knew that this was really not a mistake.
In fact, Chonglan was also quite nervous and excited in her heart, and she was very grateful to Jiang You, but she didn't show anything on her face, she took things as usual, and went back to her yard with Yan He.
As soon as she entered the house, she became excited, and indiscriminately ordered Qingge: "Hurry up, put this dress in the closet... Forget it, let's lock it up with the gold and silver treasure book, Qingge, take out the nine-turn exquisite lock in my dowry box! โ
Yan He: "......" He stepped forward and hugged the excited Chonglan, and sneered: "How calm you are, it turns out that you are also panicked like this." โ
Chonglan was still excited: "I'm a second-grade lady, will I be on the same level as you in the future!" โ
You can't blame her for being shallow-eyed, there are only a few ladies in the second rank and above in the Qi Dynasty, and even the old lady Yan is just a flattering person of the fourth grade, and she has suddenly become a second-grade lady, which is exciting for everyone.
He pulled her to the side of the black lacquer inlaid luodian small table, and said casually: "Yes, I don't dare to go west when you say east in the future." After a pause, he added, "I saw that you didn't eat much in the morning, so let's use some together." โ
Chonglan was in a hot head, and he didn't pay attention to the teasing in his tone, and said happily: "Then can I let you kneel and salute?" โ
After she finished speaking, she felt that something was wrong, and suddenly stopped her mouth, he looked at her sideways, and suddenly raised his lips and smiled: "It turns out that Lan Lan likes this posture, I understand." โ
He pinched her soft chin: "Since you like it, I, as a husband, naturally have to satisfy you." โ
Her mind cooled down suddenly, although she didn't understand the deep meaning of his words, she also guessed six or seven points, and said with a smile: "I just said it casually, but I didn't mean to offend you." โ
He sighed, "It's okay, it's me who wants to offend you." He saw the corners of Chonglan's mouth freeze, and said in her ear: "Let Mrs. be dissatisfied, but it's mine, let's try it at night?" โ
She lowered her head and pretended not to hear, but he reluctantly approached, and looked under her with deep meaning: "Do you still have pain there?" โ
She pushed him, and her face almost burned: "What do you keep asking about this!" โ
Yan He sandwiched a piece of deer breast for her: "Just ask casually, and only after asking clearly can you decide what to do at night." โ
She poked the rice hard and said angrily, "You can't do anything!" โ
He smiled at her meaningfully, Chonglan's dowry bowed his head to eat, he really didn't eat anything in the morning, he was already hungry at this time, a piece of osmanthus fish sticks was enough to eat, Qingyun knocked on the door through the blue gauze cabinet, stood outside and bowed down and said: "Young lady, they don't give them bamboo shoots when they go to the kitchen to ask for them, we and He haven't eaten since last night, what should we feed in the morning?" โ
Chonglan was stunned, Yan He had already raised his eyebrows, and repeated word by word: "Hehe? Who's that? โ
She said in a humble heart: "It's the Pixiu beast you hunted for me last time..."
He suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Which two words are they?" โ
Qingyun just went out, thinking that Yan He was not there, so he was stunned and said, "It's God bless people and harmony." After she finished speaking, she felt that something was wrong, and whispered that I would go and feed it leftovers, and ran out with a smoke.
Yan He squinted at her: "Who came up with this name?" โ
Chonglan stubbornly said: "It's me, I flipped through Erya, and I felt that the meaning of this word was good, so I gave it such a name." โ
Seeing that she was still resisting, he said lightly: "What is the meaning of Na Ya Shanghe?" โ
Chonglan: "......" doesn't like to read, it's really scary. She thought about it for a while, and forced a reason to say, "It's just... Then... Popping into my head. โ
He sighed: "It turns out that you have reached the point of lovesickness for me, and you have to give such a name to the pets around you to see things and think about people, fortunately I married you, otherwise wouldn't you be lovesick?" โ
This is really a grievance that can't be washed away even by pouring the water of the Qinhuai River, she rolled her eyes and said, "You think too much." โ
She hurriedly changed her conversation, frowned, and said, "Since the kitchen doesn't give anything, where did you get the food from this table?" โ
He said indifferently: "I brought a table from the restaurant outside." โ
Isn't this a slap in the face? If Mrs. Yan knew about it, she would definitely say that she was extravagant, but it never made sense for a man to explain these trivial things at home.
She thought for a moment and asked, "I also brought a few good cooks over, why don't we build a small kitchen in the courtyard, and if we are hungry in the future, we can fire at any time." After speaking, he frowned and said, "I'm afraid that my grandmother won't agree." โ
He really didn't pay attention to these trivial matters, and said with his chin bowed: "You just have an idea, your comfort is more important than anything else, don't pay attention to others, just push everything to me." โ
The corners of her lips curled, and she heard him ask softly, "Do you complain to me for letting you live in this mansion?" โ
She put down her chopsticks and sighed: "You are from Qi Guofu, and you are a newlywed Yan'er, where can you live if you don't live in the mansion?" โ
She frowned apologetically when she saw him, and said softly: "I didn't complain about you, if you hadn't compromised with Mrs. Yan, our marriage might not have been able to happen, besides, today's saint is the most filial piety to the emperor, and he also admires filial piety the most, if you are just promoted to governor and move out in a hurry, others may not know what to say about you, and it will not sound good to the ears of the saint." Besides..."
She tilted her head and smiled at him: "As long as you are there, you will live the same wherever you live." โ
