Chapter 4 Ask the Heart Again

On the second day, there was a banquet, and all the people who came were Governor Yao's colleagues and the wives of their colleagues. Yao Yanyu only went to the front to order a mao, showed his face, and when the banquet was opened, he quietly told Jiang that he didn't sleep well last night and had a headache, so he went back to his yard to rest.

Yao Yan didn't say anything, Yao Quehua got busy, and some of the wives and wives from various families came with their daughters, and some were about the same age as Yao Quehua, so the Jiang family handed them over to her to entertain and sit with them.

Miss Yao San felt that this was her chance, so she naturally cheered up her spirit to talk and laugh with the girls of each family.

Yao Yanyu read quietly in her room, and watched Cuiwei and Cuiping clean up the various medicinal materials collected from Sanshang, and asked Mama Feng to personally wash the jar of small golden chrysalis, put it in a clay pot and fry it over slow fire until it was slightly charred, and grind it into very fine pieces with the white jade commonly used in her daughter's boudoir to make incense powder, and put it away properly.

The front guests were full of busy days, and Yao Yanyu was free and easy for a leisurely day.

In the evening, Yao Quehua came over with a maid carrying a food box, and saw Yao Yanyu leaning on the couch, because she asked, "What's wrong with my sister today?" What's uncomfortable? ”

Yao Yanyu chuckled: "It's just that I'm tired and too lazy to move." Let's sit down, sister. ”

Yao Quehua said with a smile: "There is a dim sum with rose sauce today, I thought that my sister likes to eat it, so I specially asked someone to leave a box for my sister to send over." As he spoke, he instructed the maid behind him to open the food box, and inside it was indeed a white jade plate full of rose shortbread.

"My sister has a heart. xiexie you. Yao Yan thanked with a smile.

"Second sister and I are still so outside?" Yao Quehua smiled with crooked eyebrows and eyes, very cute.

Yao Yanyu looked at her and remembered the scene in the bamboo forest yesterday, and couldn't help but think in her heart, how could such an innocent and innocent little girl have the intention to harm others? Or was she just bewitched by Song Yanqing?

Song Yanqing's person, Yao Yanyu, is not a good impression at all.

He is the nephew and grandson of Mrs. Song's mother's family, and the only son of Jing Nanbo. Because he was born in a wealthy family, he was arrogant by his widowed grandmother since he was a child, and he developed an unenterprising temperament, but he was born with a good skin, so he was touted by those people, making some obscene words and songs, lingering in the flowers, and not doing his job.

Originally, he didn't have much intersection with Yao Yanyu, just because three years ago, Yao Yanyu followed his mother-in-law Wang to Jingnanbo's Mansion as a guest, and the personal maid Cuiwei naturally had to follow, and it was also a coincidence that Cuiwei met this Song prince in the corridor, and was favored by this eldest prince at that time, and asked Cuiwei to be a concubine, and asked his mother to tell Mrs. Song.

Mrs. Song thought that she was just a maid, and her nephew would give it to him if she liked it.

However, Cuiwei did not agree to find death and life, only said that this door was touched to death, and did not go to Jingnanbo Mansion to be a concubine.

Yao Yanyu went to ask Mrs. Song for a favor, saying that Cuiwei was her personal maid since she was a child, and if she went to be a concubine for her cousin of the Song family, her reputation would also be damaged, and she would be laughed at at that time. Thinking of this, Mrs. Song rejected the Song family and left Cuiwei.

Because of this, Yao Yanyu hated Song Yanqing very much.

"Second sister?" Yao Quehua saw that Yao Yanyu looked at him and didn't speak, so he raised his voice and shouted.

"Huh?" Yao Yanyu smiled apologetically, "What did you just say?" I'm sorry, but I didn't hear you say something because I thought of something. ”

Yao Quehua smiled: "I didn't say anything. But what is my sister thinking about, thinking so intrigued? ”

Yao Yanyu chuckled lightly and said, "When I saw my sister of the Song family today, I remembered some things when I was a child. At that time, you were still very young, and Yayun came to play at home, and she liked to tease you. Once she deliberately took your beloved purse and insisted that it was hers, which made you cry. ”

"Really?" Yao Quehua also smiled, "I don't even remember." ”

"Of course you don't remember, you were only two years old." Yao Yanyu still smiled gently.

"It's been so long, do you remember it?" Yao Quehua blinked her beautiful big eyes and looked moved.

"Of course, because that purse is your favorite thing, you used it when you were a kid to sleep and even more so when you were sick and didn't eat. The nurse broke the snack and put it in her purse, and then took it out again, and you could eat a little. ”

"Ah...... And what's going on? Yao Quehua was completely stupid.

Yao Yanyu smiled: "Yes, because I embroidered the purse, and it was the first time I did needlework." Aunt Tian also said, our two sisters fell in love. ”

"My aunt is right, my sister and I are in love." Yao Quehua smiled sweetly.

"yes, I think so too." Yao Yanyu looked at Yao Quehua calmly and gently, her eyes were calm and waveless, but Yao Quehua didn't dare to look directly, turned her face slightly, and looked away.

Those who dare not look into each other's eyes must have a ghost in their hearts.

Yao Yanyu sneered from her heart, and asked calmly, "Is the drama in front of you lively today?" My sister is having fun today? ”

"It's pretty hilarious." Yao Quehua reached out to hold Yao Yanyu's hand again, and said, "Even if my sister is missing, no matter how much you haode drama, it's not interesting." ”

"Really?" Yao Yanyu chuckled again, "But I didn't like those dramas since I was a child, and I couldn't understand what they were singing at all." ”

"Isn't it? Didn't my sister listen to it fascinated yesterday? Yao Quehua was stunned, thinking that she didn't like to listen to the play? I didn't see it, no one in the family said that the second girl didn't like to listen to dramas.

"Yesterday?" Yao Yanyu chuckled, still looking at Yao Quehua calmly, and asked rhetorically, "Really?" Do you think I'm hooked? ”

Yao Quehua was suddenly a little nervous, inexplicably, as if the second sister in front of her seemed to have changed all of a sudden.

"Second girl, third girl, it's time for dinner over there for the old lady." Yao Quehua's personal maid Ziling Fu reminded.

"Second sister, let's go to the old lady's side." Yao Quehua seemed to have found the reason immediately, and stood up a little flustered.

Yao Yanyu chuckled: "I'm still a little dizzy, so I'll just go." I am tired of my third sister helping me to talk to the old lady. ”

"Okay, then sister, you can rest, I'll go first." Yao Quehua smiled and left in a hurry with Ziling.

After going out, Yao Quehua couldn't help but glance back again, frowned, and said, "Ziling, do you think the second sister is a little weird today?" ”

"Yes, the slave has already realized it." Ziling lowered her voice and looked around.

In the past two days, the house has been busy, and the two mammas who followed Yao Quehua have also been called to help, and Mrs. Wang thinks that if she gets Tian out of the house, she will naturally be quieter.

"Do you think too?" Yao Quehua pursed her lips and frowned, "When she looked at me just now, I felt ...... I'm scared. ”

Ziling hesitated and said: "The slave maid is not afraid, but I think that every sentence of the second girl's words seems to have another meaning, but the slave maid is stupid and really can't understand it." ”

"Forget it, I don't understand it either." Yao Quehua hurriedly walked forward with her feet raised, and added after a while: "It is said that she went to the capital and came back like a different person, I didn't think it before, and now I feel like it - she does seem to be a different person." ”

At the same time, Yao Yanen's yard.

The Jiang family had been busy all day, and his back and legs were sore, but he still had to change his clothes and was ready to go to Mrs. Song's to serve dinner.

The confidant Baixiang said in a low voice while tidying up the clothes for the Jiang family: "Yesterday, a mother-in-law told the slave maid that she saw the third girl walking with the eldest son of Song. ”

Jiang Shi was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "This is not allowed to be nonsense. ”

Baixiang replied in a low voice: "It was Liu Shun's family who saw it, and she is not the kind of person who does nothing." The slave thought that what she said must be true, so she told her grandmother. ”

Jiang frowned and said, "This Song Yanqing! It's really hateful! He is outside with flowers and grass, and loves whoever he loves. We really shouldn't have hit our family with those shady ideas! The third girl is only eleven years old, what does he want to do?! ”

Baixiang turned around and lifted the curtain and instructed the two maids at the door: "You go out first." ”

The two maids agreed to go out and closed the door. Baixiang Fang came back and whispered to the Jiang family: "Grandma, this matter can't be slapped in the face." The slave maid heard that the reason why the wife sent Aunt Tian to the temple to recite the scriptures was because the third girl went to inquire about Xiao Houye with the second girl, and was reprimanded by the second girl, and she was unhappy when she came back. The mothers who followed the three girls figured out the reason for the incident and returned to Mrs., who was afraid that Aunt Tian would cause trouble in the past few days, so she sent people out. Aunt Tian originally gave the second grandmother a pair of vases of the former dynasty's Baizi Spring Picture Picture, and wanted to ask the second grandmother to help intercede, but she didn't have time. ”

Jiang frowned and sneered: "These people, one by one, are engaged in speculation, and they are all-encompassing. It's also up to them to get it! ”

"But the slave and maid have always been unable to figure it out, although the third girl is the master, but with Jing Nanbo's identity, she categorically can't look down on it. Is that the eldest prince of Song just ......"

"It's hard to say. His father is just an idle job, but he has a white-collar piece of silver from the court, and he doesn't even have a real difference, and he only has that bit of silver a year, if he doesn't have the fief of his ancestors, he doesn't know what it will become. The shadow of his ancestors is gone in his generation. This eldest son is an idle son, relying on the inheritance of his ancestors to eat and drink! Look at him like that, he has nothing to do in this life. If he can marry a girl from our family, it can be regarded as burning high incense. Jiang sneered.

"No wonder Mrs. Jing Nanbo has always come to see the old lady these days. Xu has made up the mind of the three girls? ”

"I don't think so!" Jiang snorted, "Even if it's an idea, it's the second girl." I think the old lady also has this meaning. ”

Baixiang was stunned when she heard this, and then sighed: "That really wronged our second girl." ”

"You don't have to worry, it won't work." Jiang said, looked in the mirror again, raised his hand and stroked the broken hair between his sideburns, and pushed the big red velvet flower, "I heard that in the capital, Zhenguo Gong was a matchmaker and wanted to match General Dingyuan and the second girl, but the master didn't agree." Do you think the old man is willing to give the second girl to the Song family at this time? ”

"Yo! Is there really such a thing? The slave thought it was a rumor. ”

"It's really not true, now General Dingyuan is already in Jiangning City. And he is also close to the second master, who can say that there is no reason for it? ”

Baixiang nodded knowingly, and sighed again: "So, the old lady ...... there."

"I'm afraid I'm angry." Jiang sighed, turned around and walked out, "But this matter has nothing to do with us, just wait and see." ”

When the master and servant went out, a group of girls and mothers-in-law in the courtyard followed at random, and followed the Jiang family to the courtyard of Mrs. Song.

Another empty day, Yao Yanyu was really bored at home, before she could quietly get the herbs she planted in the yard, but because of this departure into Beijing, those herbs were harvested by her, and the concocted ones were long gone. Now there are only some useless flowers and trees in the yard, and there are no cats and dogs, which is really boring.

Fortunately, Yao Yanyi hadn't forgotten her, and actually sent Xuelian to pass the word, and she had something to take the second girl out at noon, and she had already told her wife.

So Yao Yanyu became happy and asked Cuiwei to take out the clothes from the door. Cuiwei smiled and took out three sets of men's clothes. Yao Yanyu smiled and narrowed her eyes when she saw it, and casually picked out a moon-white brocade gown.

These men's clothes were changed by Mama Feng according to Yao Yanyu's figure, and they are particularly suitable for wearing. As soon as the second girl Yao turned around, she became a boy with bright eyes and bright teeth, and was as gentle as jade.

"When we go out with the girl, we have to change into men's clothes." Cui Ping said, took out two sets of standard cyan shirts and black pants in the Governor's Palace, gave Cui Wei a set, and the two of them changed together.

Yao Yanyu suddenly frowned and sighed: "If we go out like this and meet the master, what will it be like?" ”

Xue Lian said with a smile: "The second master said, the carriage is waiting at the west corner gate of the back garden, the second girl passes through the garden, and the master will meet guests in the big study in front of him at this time, and he will definitely not see it." ”

"That's good." Yao Yanyu breathed a sigh of relief, told Cuiwei Cuiping to bring the things out of the house, and left in a hurry.

In fact, the defense of men and women in the Great Cloud Dynasty is not so strict, young women who have not left the cabinet travel, or see foreign men, as long as they have their brother by their side.

But Yao Yanyu still thinks it's more convenient to change into men's clothes, at least the red tape of those women can be saved, and they can hug their fists generously and call Brother So-and-so, so they can prevaricate and save more trouble.

Just like at this moment, before Yao Yanyu got into the carriage, she saw Wei Zhang with a few relatives and a few people she didn't know standing there waiting, she just smiled and nodded, and then turned around and got into the car. You don't have to be blessed, you don't have to say hello or anything. Very good.

Yao Yanyi took Yao Yanyu to a courtyard of the Yao family this time. The annex is built near the water, covering a small area, but it is very exquisitely built.

After arriving at the place, the carriage stopped, Yao Yanyu got out of the car and looked at the surrounding environment, and couldn't help but sigh, Yundu City is too prosperous, and even the suburbs can't find such a quiet environment like here.

Yao Yanyi walked over and said: "Some of the medicinal materials have been collected, I brought my sister here today to let you take a look, if there is nothing wrong, I will transport this batch to the capital first." ”

"I understand." Yao Yanyu nodded, she is here to be a quality inspector.

I have to say that Yao Yanyi's ability to do things is really good, but in three days, he got no less than thousands of catties of roots of hemostatic grass, as well as many pupae. Moreover, the pupae were all raised in dustpans made of bamboo strips, and all of them were still alive.

After Yao Yanyu read it, she said to Yao Yanyi: "The hemostatic grass needs to be dried, and the pupa should also be soaked in salt water and fried, so that it can be transported." ”

Yao Yanyi nodded: "The specific concoction process has to be handed over to them by my sister." ”

"This is natural. But it's not that hard. Yao Yanyu naturally didn't care about these links, and she didn't have the heart to care about them.

Yao Yanyi called two people over and told them to listen to Yao Yanyu's instructions. These two people have been domestic slaves of the Yao family for three generations, and when they saw Yao Yanyu, they saluted respectfully and called them "second girl".

Yao Yanyu told them how to concoct it, and then they went to Shiyan first. The two men agreed.

Yao Yanyi pointed to a gazebo next to him and said, "Let's go over there and wait." ”

The two brothers and sisters, as well as Wei Zhang and Tang Xiaoyi, turned around and walked to the pavilion together and sat down on the stone bench. Some maids offered snacks and fruits, and Yao Yanyi ordered the little girl to take out the red clay stove and boil water to cook tea.

Yao Yanyi is a graceful son who has studied the tea ceremony. Wei Zhang was a man who grew up in the northwest military camp and never paid attention to these things.

When Yao Yanyi personally held the purple sand carved double cowardly pot and poured tea, and the purple sand teacup was dragged on the agarwood saucer and sent to Wei Zhang, General Wei frowned slightly. raised his big hand and pinched the small teacup, and glanced at Yao Yanyu.

Yao Yanyu has already picked up her cup of tea, smelling the fragrance of tea, tasting the tea soup, and savoring the aftertaste.

General Wei frowned again, and took a sip lightly - damn it, it's so hot!

Master Yao also asked with a smile: "General Wei, how is this tea?" ”

Wei Zhang nodded: "Well, it's quite haode." As he spoke, he blew into the teacup and drank the rest of the tea.

Yao Yanyi said with a smile: "This is our own tea in our own tea garden, my grandfather loves tea, and there has always been a tea garden at home." To put it mildly, I am afraid that those who advance are nothing more than that. ”

That's the benefit of a rich family. Love tea? The tea garden at home, the tea master raised at home, and the craftsmanship inherited for hundreds of years are hidden and silent, but they are not necessarily worse than those of the royal family.

Wei Zhang sighed silently in his heart, no wonder Yao Yuan's scholar was looked at differently by the princes and princes in Yundu City. Although the Yao family did not worship the princes, their foundation was not shallower than those princes and generals.

When Wei Zhang sighed in his heart, Yao Yanyi smiled again: "If General Wei likes it, bring a pound or two when he turns around." ”

"What's so embarrassing?" Wei Zhang smiled: "I'm a rough person, and I don't understand this." ”

Yao Yanyi said with a smile: "It's just a little tea, just drink it to the right taste." Besides, the general traveled all the way and took risks for our brothers and sisters, which was just a little heart. Second sister, what do you say? ”

Yao Yanyu chuckled and said, "What the second brother said is true. It's just a long thing in the homeland, and it's not as expensive as those tributes, so the general doesn't have to be polite. ”

Hearing this, Wei Zhang glanced back at Yao Yanyu and nodded: "Okay, I'm welcome." ”

Yao Yanyi said again: "At noon, let's go to Wufangzhai for dinner, I made an appointment with Marquis Xiao." General Wei called Tang Junmen again, and everyone gathered together to be more lively. ”

"Xiao Yi has a tolerance and went to Yangzhou to observe the mansion of Lord Jiang. I'm afraid I won't be able to come today. ”

The Yangzhou Observer is Yao Yanen's father-in-law, who is in charge of Yangzhou's defense and the military power of the Jiangnan Naval Division. Yao Yanyi nodded with a smile and said, "Since this is the case, then there are only a few of us." ”

Yao Yanyu couldn't sit still after drinking a few cups of tea, because he said, "Brother and the general will sit first, I'll go over there and take a look." ”

This is her own courtyard, of course, it doesn't matter how she walks around. Yao Yanyi nodded and said, "Go ahead." ”

Yao Yanyu nodded to Wei Zhang, got up and left, and Cuiwei and Cuiping behind him both retired and hurriedly followed.

This courtyard was originally Yao Yanyi's private property, adjacent to a paddy field to build, the yard also led a canal in, the canal was planted with water lilies, raised fish, built a small bee waist bridge on the canal, the whole courtyard planted not many flowers and trees, only a few plum trees, a lot of green plums, but also made a vegetable furrow, fenced with a bamboo fence, raised some chickens, ducks and geese, took a leisure farming.

In the past, Yao Yanyi would come to live for a few days when he had nothing to do, so the houses here were all furnished, and there were maids and servants to clean up on weekdays.

Yao Yanyu was walking and playing, because she saw the gray ducks and white geese swimming in the canal, she thought it was funny, so she picked up stones and threw them over to tease them. A gray duck was hit by a pebble, croaked, and flapped its wings to escape. Yao Yanyu giggled like a child.

Over there, Yao Yanyi heard the laughter and looked over, shook his head and sighed: "This girl, she is still like a child when she grows so big." ”

Wei Zhang also looked at it, with a deep smile in his eyes: "Life is a lifetime, but only a few decades, it's good to be happy." ”

"That's right!" Yao Yanyi nodded in agreement: "A million family business is not as easy as one." There are really not many people who can see as openly as General Wei. Admire under it. ”

Wei Zhang shook his head with a smile: "Lord Yao said that it was not easy. ”

"General Wei has to be reused by the emperor. How many people want to ask for it but can't get it? Yao Yanyi said, and poured tea for Wei Zhang.

"The emperor also values Lord Yao as much." Wei Zhang hurriedly raised his hand to show his gratitude.

Yao Yanyi poured the tea for a moment, and then smiled: "That's because I have a good sister." ”

Wei Zhang smiled and didn't say anything more.

Over there, Yao Yanyu played for a while, sweated lightly, and was a little thirsty, so she turned back. Yao Yan saw her appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "Look at your sweat, why can't you get along with those poultry?" Want to eat stewed duck soup at noon? ”

Yao Yanyu chuckled and took a cup of tea to drink in one gulp, and said, "How can there be!" I think they're too lazy, so let them move their muscles and bones. ”

"Nonsense." Yao Yanyi smiled.

Wei Zhang saw that her cup was empty, so he picked up the fair cup and refilled her with tea.

Yao Yanyu drank it again and smiled at Wei Zhang: "Xiexie." ”

"There are no rules, how can you talk to the general?" Although Yao Yanyi was reprimanded, he still smiled.

"Let it be." Wei Zhang smiled and filled Yao Yanyu with tea.

It happened that someone came to ask Yao Yanyi for something, Yao Yan thought that the person was a little anxious, so he got up and walked out of the small pavilion.

Yao Yanyu drank three cups of tea in a row, and then found that there were only two people left here, her and Wei Zhang. It's not embarrassing, she's not the kind of person who twists, she just sits opposite this person, and she feels a little uncomfortable.

Yao Yanyu glanced up at him, and he happened to be looking at himself as well. So he glared at him, looked away, but saw Yao Yanyi leave in a hurry with the subordinate. Miss Yao couldn't help frowning slightly.

Wei Zhang couldn't help but chuckle, and Yao Yanyu's face turned red for no reason.

"I'm going to ask the emperor for advice." Wei Zhang said thoughtlessly.

"What do you want?" Yao Yan's words were a little inexplicable.

"Please ask the emperor to give you a marriage." Wei Zhang's gaze locked on her delicate face. He likes to see her wash away her bare makeup, as clean and translucent as the clear sky after the rain.

"Bestow...... What marriage? Yao Yanyu's heart jumped, and her face turned even redder.

"I've thought about what you said before." Wei Zhang said calmly, "You said, your female red needle can't do it, and you can't understand piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." There is no appearance, perverse temperament, not suitable for home, not suitable for room, not a good match. ”

Yao Yanyu was stunned, thinking to herself how long ago this was the words, this person still remembers?

Wei Zhang didn't mean to stop: "I also heard, do you think that finding a man is to make trouble for yourself?" ”

Yao Yanyu stared at the person in front of him with wide eyes, who said this to him?! That's right, Han Mingcan! You actually betrayed your good sister, hum!

Wei Zhang smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I have been independent since I was a child, and I don't need you to take care of food, clothing, housing and transportation." I will take care of you, let you live a carefree life, do whatever you want, I will not confine you to the inner house, and, most importantly, I will not be your trouble. ”

"In addition, the general's fiefdom is 3,000 hectares, 1,000 households, 600 houses in the general's mansion, tens of thousands of treasures and furniture, 600 domestic slaves, and 1,002 family soldiers. All these things are yours. If you have no objection, the general will ask the Holy Majesty to grant marriage tomorrow. ”

At this moment, Yao Yanyu's heart turned a thousand times and her thoughts were thousands.

He is a general with outstanding military achievements, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and a person admired even by the lord of Yunyao; The prince of Zhenguo called him a brother and a brother, and the prince of King Cheng also looked at him differently; He responded to every call in the army, and thousands of elite soldiers were the first to look forward to him.

And such a person has a soft spot for himself!

How much thought did it take him to say that to himself today?

He is such a person, and he is so attentive to himself!

Wei Zhang didn't seem to be in a hurry, but picked up the boiling water on the red clay stove and slowly brewed tea.

His action of making tea was a little clumsy, not at all Yao Yanyi's elegant scholar's movements like flowing clouds, his fingers were a little thick, and there was a thick layer of cocoons on the tips of his fingertips.

These hands have held their wrists, and these arms have held themselves more than once......

Yao Yanyu only felt that there were two fires burning on her cheeks, which made her head dizzy, and she couldn't think rationally.

Wei Zhang handed her a cup of tea, chuckled and asked, "Or, do you still need to think about it?" ”

Yao Yanyu pursed her lips, raised her hand to take the cup of tea, and finally spoke, her voice was dumb: "I ......"

"Second sister!" Yao Yanyi's voice came from the side, "Come and see!" ”

"Huh?" Yao Yanyu turned around in surprise and saw Yao Yanyi coming over with a plate.

"Look, isn't it wrong that this chrysalis has become like this after being fried with salt?" Yao Yanyi frowned and asked.

Yao Yanyu stretched out her hand and pinched a chrysalis, which turned into powder with a light twist, so she frowned and said, "The fire is too big, you must use a simmer." Let them use a thicker crockpot, so that they can't be confused, because if they are pasted, they will have no medicinal effect. ”

Yao Yanyi turned his head and scolded the person next to him: "Do you understand?" ”

The person in charge of frying next to him hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, I understand." ”

Yao Yanyi returned the things to the man and reprimanded: "Don't worry about it, see how I punish you!" ”

"Yes, the minion must be attentive." The man took the tray and bowed down.

Yao Yanyu persuaded: "Brother, don't be angry, this thing is not very easy to do." ”

"Well, I'm just talking, these people, if you don't say it, you don't take it seriously. This chrysalis is very expensive, and in the past few days, I have asked someone to dig most of the mountain behind Puji Temple to get this point. It's still more than half the amount the emperor wants. Let them make such a mess again, you say I won't be in a hurry! ”

Wei Zhang turned his head to look at Yao Yanyu: "Isn't there still a golden chrysalis?" ”

Yao Yanyu frowned: "Golden chrysalis are rare but not sought, I have been looking for them for so many years, and there is only a little bit of it." ”

This scruple is a must, if the emperor knows about this thing, he must let people look for it, if he can't find it, he will definitely be punished. When the time comes, it will still be Yao Yanyi. If Yao Yanyi is convicted, the Yao family will have no good fruit to eat, including Yao Yanyu, of course.

Wei Zhang was not a fool, so he kept silent and stopped mentioning the matter of the golden chrysalis.

Yao Yanyi didn't understand? So he hurriedly diverted the topic: "Okay, it's already noon, let's go to dinner first, let's talk about this later, maybe Marquis Xiao is already in a hurry." ”

So everyone went out of the courtyard, and the carriage was brought over, but Yao Yanyu hesitated not to get on the car.

"What's wrong?" Yao Yanyi asked strangely.

"I want to ride a horse." Yao Yanyu grinned.

"Can you do it?" Yao Yanyi frowned, if this is a fall, it is not a joke.

Wei Zhang brought his black horse over: "You ride it." This horse was trained by me, and it is very obedient. ”

"Hey, falling is no joke!" Yao Yanyi reminded anxiously.

"I can't fall." Wei Zhang handed the reins to Yao Yanyu, "Go up." ”

Yao Yanyu grabbed the reins of the horse, and regretted a little in her heart, even if she wanted to ride a horse, she should go to the horse farm to practice first, why did she say it for a while.

But - you have to learn sooner or later, and it's too embarrassing to be in a carriage in a man's clothes.

So Yao Yan said that he was heartbroken, raised his foot and stepped on the stirrup, and climbed on the horse with difficulty in the saddle.

Wei Zhang affectionately touched the face of the black horse, and said in a low voice: "Black wolf, be steady." The black horse snorted and snorted through his nose and shook his head. Wei Zhang smiled again, turned his head to look at Yao Yanyu: "It's okay, you loosen the reins of the horse, and it will leave." ”

"Huh? Oh. The reins of the horse in Yao Yanyu's hand loosened forward. The black horse really walked forward with four hooves steady.

"This horse is really obedient." Cui next to him smiled.

Yao Yanyi also recognized the stirrup and got on the horse, and while asking someone to bring another horse to Wei Zhang, he frowned and ordered the two servants beside him: "Good life follow." ”

Wei Zhang was very relieved about his horse, took the reins handed over by the person next to him and flew on the horse, watching Yao Yanyu riding on the horse from a distance, his small waist stiffened, and he was nervous at first glance.

Thinking of the mess of being smashed by this girl in the racecourse, General Wei couldn't help laughing again.

Wufangzhai is a restaurant on the outskirts of Jiangning, it is also built by the water, it looks like a courtyard from the outside, there is no meaning of a restaurant at all, the black lacquer door is open, and there are two people in green cloth clothes standing at the door.

From Yao Yanyi's courtyard, it was only three or five miles away, but Yao Yanyu rode on a horse and walked this section, and he already had back pain. She was still at a loss when she dismounted, and the only experience of dismounting was when she fell, so Miss Yao didn't dare to be careless.

Yao Yan agreed, jumped off and immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hand: "Give me your hand, turn around and jump down, don't be afraid." ”

Yao Yanyu tried to hold her brother's hand, raised her legs and dismounted, jumped down and let out a sigh, and said with a smile: "It's scared to death!" ”

"You're fine, uncomfortable." Yao Yanyi smiled disgustingly, "How good is it to take the car?" I just want to ride a horse. ”

Yao Yanyu said with a smile: "In the future, if there is no car to sit on, you are not allowed to ride a horse." I'm also learning a skill in case I need it. ”

"Then you have to take your time." Yao Yanyi said, glanced at Wei Zhang's black horse again, and praised: "General Wei's horse is really good, majestic and obedient. ”

Wei Zhang stepped forward and patted the black horse, and said with a smile: "That's, it has been with me for eight years, and it saved my life twice on the battlefield." Sort of a good brother of mine. ”

When Yao Yanyu heard this, she couldn't help but glance back at the horse, thinking that this horse was also legendary. Thinking about it again, Wei Zhang said that it saved the master's life twice, and felt a little stuffy in his heart.

Thousands of miles of frontier, murderous, he fell into a desperate situation, and he relied on horses to save him.

Entering the courtyard gate of Wufangzhai, there is a manor inside, between the flowers and trees, a number of houses and houses, living next to each other, or looking at each other through the flowers and trees, each place is quiet and elegant.

"I'm going to set Qin Fangyuan, over there." Yao Yanyi took Wei Zhang and Yao Yanyu through a long corridor and walked inside, turning a bush of blooming peonies, and walking to a delicate wooden house.

A beautiful maid had already stepped forward to ask for peace, and raised the bamboo curtain of the Xiangfei hanging at the door.

Xiao Lin had already arrived, standing there with his hands in his hands admiring a green landscape painting, Yao Yanyu glanced at it, and only felt that it was good, but he couldn't say where it was good. However, this painting can get Xiao Lin's blue eyes, and it must not be ordinary.

Hearing the movement, Marquis Xiao turned around and smiled: "Why did you come, I've been waiting for a while." ”

Yao Yanyi sighed helplessly: "Don't mention it, those stupid minions can't do things well, and they have delayed some effort." ”

"You're still in a hurry, I'm also angry when I talk about this." Xiao Lin shook his head helplessly, and said hello to Wei Zhang and Yao Yanyu again, and after everyone sat down, Xiao Hou Ye asked Wei Zhang again: "When will you return to Beijing?" ”

Wei Zhang glanced at Yao Yanyu and said, "I'm afraid it will take some days, Master Hou has something?" ”

"Forget it, don't talk about it." Xiao Houye shook his head again and turned to Yao Yanyu: "What do you want to eat?" I just ordered a few dishes, you see what you like, and then order. ”

Yao Yanyu listened to their messy conversation in front of her, and guessed that there was something important to discuss, and secretly thought that it would be better to go out for a stroll after eating later, so as not to delay a few of them to get down to business, so she hurriedly shook her head and said, "I'm not picky, just whatever." ”

Yao Yanyi said: "Master Hou, today we are just having a meal, don't bring your annoying official business in, it will give you a headache when you listen to it." ”

Xiao Lin smiled: "Okay! Listen to you. As he spoke, he beckoned the maid outside the door to come in, "Report the names of your specialties here again, and let these sons hear about them." ”

The pretty maid really reported the name of the dish again, and Wei Zhang was an indispensable person, and he still said it casually.

Yao Yanyi added another dish of shredded chicken and vegetable soup, a double vegetable ball, and a secret eel silk.

A few people sat around and tasted tea before waiting for the food, and naturally they had to gossip again.

Xiao Linyin asked Yao Yanyu: "What about my prescription?" ”

Yao Yanyu said with a smile: "Very good, I am already studying how to concoct it, but there are two flavors of medicine that are not easy to obtain, I have already written to Sister Han in the capital and asked her to help me find a way." ”

Xiao Lin immediately smiled, and said continuously: "That's good." ”

Wei Zhang glanced at Xiao Lin, his eyes teasing.

Yao Yanyi didn't know that the emperor was going to give Xiao Lin a marriage, but looking at Wei Zhang's expression, he knew that there was something inside, so he knocked on the table and said, "What kind of medicine does Marquis Xiao prepare?" Speaking out gives us a long insight. ”

Xiao Lin said with a smile: "What medicine can I prepare, but I got a prescription by chance, thinking that Sister Yao was interested, so I gave it to her." This writing thing is useless in our hands, and in her hands, it can cure diseases and save people, right? ”

Yao Yanyu smiled meaningfully: "Of course, I am in charge of curing diseases and saving people." "Even lovesickness is cured.

Watching Yao Yanyu laugh with Marquis Xiao, Yao Yanyi was better, but Wei Zhang couldn't stand it anymore, and took advantage of the time to divert the topic: "Ming'er, I happen to be free, if you want to learn to ride a horse, you can come to the horse farm to find me." ”

"Really?" Yao Yanyu rode a horse for the first time today, and although she was nervous, she was really excited. Think about how happy it would be to be able to gallop yourself one day.

"Of course." Wei Zhang raised his sword eyebrows, "When did I tell a lie?" ”

Yao Yanyu turned her head to look at Yao Yanyi, her eyes full of hope.

Yao Yanyi smiled: "What do you want me to do?" I want to go out and tell the old lady by myself. ”

"Second brother!" Yao Yanyu immediately pouted.

Yao Yanyi said with a smile: "I remember that when I came out today, I seemed to hear someone say a word, indicating that it was a banquet of Uncle Jingnan's family, saying that it was the birthday of the old lady over there, and if the old lady allowed you not to go, you would go to learn to ride a horse." ”

Yao Yanyu frowned: "I remember that she was on her birthday in September, why did she change it to April?" ”

"How do I know, I can't tell about birthdays all year round." Yao Yanyi didn't bother to ask about these things, and as for the things between these women, he didn't even pretend to be in his heart.
