Chapter Twenty-Three: Three Encounters with Flowers
The Mid-Autumn Festival reunion banquet is scheduled to wait, and the family will definitely go to the eldest princess's mansion. Yao Yanyu really didn't want to go, but this was the first time Yao Fengge had gone to the eldest princess to show up after she recovered from her illness, she was going, Yao Yanyi was also going, and Yao Yanyu had no reason not to go.
So Yao Yanyu made up her mind to keep a low profile to the end, not saying a word, not taking one more step. I just hope that the eldest princess can completely ignore her existence and quietly go over to eat something and come back.
Clinker, the eldest princess was in a very good mood this day, originally she liked Yao Fengge very much, but now seeing that she had recovered from a serious illness and came to kowtow to herself, she was happy for a while, so she looked at Yao Yanyu twice, and said: "Your sister also looks good." ”
Yao Fengge hurriedly smiled: "Eldest Princess Xie praised, she has been a quiet character since she was a child, and she is gentle, but sometimes she is a little bored." I don't know how to talk much, and I listen to people get angry. ”
The eldest princess smiled: "It is better to have a clever mouth and a clever tongue, and it is better to be silent and silent." When you are like you, everyone is exquisite? ”
Mrs. Lu also smiled on the side: "This child is really worry-free, he has been bored in his house every day these days, and rarely goes out to shop." Before, your sister was sick and you had to take care of your sister, but now that you are well, you should also walk around. When Ming'er is free, let your sister take you around. ”
Yao Fengge and Yao Yanyu hurriedly agreed together, and Mrs. Lu diverted the topic again, and brought the matter of the Mid-Autumn Festival and moon appreciation, and asked the eldest princess where she was to enjoy the moon at night, so that she could teach someone to clean up the arrangements.
The eldest princess thought for a while and said, "Enjoying the moon every year, either climbing the mountain or facing the water, it's all boring, it's not interesting." ”
Mrs. Lu said: "The laurel tree in the back garden of the Hou Mansion bloomed early this year, admiring the moon on the Moon Pavilion, smelling the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, it is not bad for the ladies to talk in one place." ”
The eldest princess glanced at the Feng clan with a smile and said, "Since this is the case, then ask the eldest daughter-in-law to arrange it." ”
So at noon, after everyone had dinner in the eldest princess's mansion, they went to the Dinghou Mansion in the evening.
Yao Yanyu was a guest, so she naturally didn't worry about those things, just hid to the side with Su Yuyu and the two of them to laugh.
In the afternoon, the eldest princess came to the Dinghou Mansion before it was dark, and Mrs. Lu took her three daughters-in-law to welcome her into the door, and after serving tea, the eldest princess said that she would simply go to the Moon Pavilion with dinner.
Dinghou personally held the eldest princess's hand, and Su Yuping accompanied him on the other side. Mrs. Lu followed behind with her son and daughter-in-law, and the group took advantage of the brilliant sunset to step up to the Moon Pavilion.
Yao Yanyu walked at the end, looking up at the scene of filial piety and happiness in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh and envy secretly. Thinking about his lonely soul again, he took the identity of this concubine and entered the Dinghou Mansion, which can be described as extremely embarrassing.
originally planned to leave the prosperous land of Yanliu to find a pure land to live the scene, but Yao Fengge didn't want to agree again.
Hey, I'm still a little anxious. At that time, he shouldn't have only discussed with Mama Li, he should have negotiated with Yao Fengge. But what if you don't be in a hurry, if you let Yao Fengge know that she can save her but doesn't, I'm afraid I won't even have a day like this.
"Sister Yao." Su Yuyu walked and found that Yao Yanyu was a few steps behind, so she stood down and waited for her to follow, and grabbed her, "Why are you so slow." ”
Yao Yanyu hurriedly smiled: "As soon as I smelled the fragrance of osmanthus flowers, I was distracted for a while, so I took a few steps slowly. But you, what to do in a hurry, carefully the stones under your feet, if you trip, you will knock your teeth. ”
"Hmph, I'm not Yun'er." Su Yuyu smiled and pulled Yao Yanyu to take a few steps, "Hurry up!" There are osmanthus steamed crabs tonight, as well as osmanthus wine, osmanthus cakes, osmanthus sugar, and a bunch of osmanthus flowers, which are enough for you to taste until tomorrow! ”
Yao Yanyu was silent all night, in fact, as long as she participated in the reunion activities of the Hou Mansion, she was in such a state.
Mrs. Lu and the others only thought that she had such a temperament, and they didn't have much theory. After all, she is just the sister-in-law of the daughter-in-law's mother's family, and now that the daughter-in-law is sick, it always depends on the meaning of the Yao family where the stepfamily will go.
If they are willing to give their daughters to their sons as concubines, there is nothing to say about Dinghoufu, just laugh. Anyway, Yao Fengge has no children so far, and the many noble concubines in his son's room have nothing to say to outsiders.
The family laughed and laughed, drank and riddled and told jokes, laughter and the fragrance of osmanthus were mixed together, drunk on a charming autumn night.
Yao Yanyu barely sat down until the third watch, and then quietly approached Yao Fengge's ear: "Sister, I'm sleepy, I can't sit still." ”
"Then you can go back to sleep first." In fact, Yao Fengge was already tired, but the eldest princess didn't say anything about it, so she could only accompany her.
Yao Yanyu quietly withdrew from the banquet and walked back along the road from which Feng Mama and Cuiwei Cuiping had come.
In the past few days, Yao Yanyu has been thinking about how to leave the Dinghou Mansion, and after today's family banquet, it has become more and more obvious that she is completely an outsider, so she is walking in the garden by moonlight, and her mind is full of how to leave with her own things. Caught off guard, a person flashed out of the bush of wood hibiscus in front of him.
"Girl!" Cuiwei followed behind Yao Yanyu, and was startled when she saw someone suddenly flashing out from the side, and then subconsciously stepped forward to pull Yao Yanyu, but it was too late.
"Ahh Yao Yanyu was taken aback by the person in front of her, braked sharply under her feet, fell forward, and hit her head on a hard chest, the delicate flowing cloud bun was a little scattered, and the beaded hosta was crooked.
"Huh? It turned out to be Yao Er's girl. Another voice next to him walked out from behind Furong, and after seeing Yao Yan's words clearly, he asked, "Why do you have to leave before the banquet is over?" ”
Before Yao Yanyu could react, Mama Feng and the two girls had already come forward to ask for peace: "The slave asks for peace for the prince." ”
The night dissolves, the shadows of the flowers sway, and the moonlight is bright but limited. Yao Yanyu stood firm, looked up, and sure enough, next to the tall figure in front of him was Su Yuping, who was wearing a jade white robe, gentle and elegant.
Yao Yanyu took a step back, and hurriedly cleaned up her mood and gave Su Yu a parallel salute: "I've seen the prince." ”
"Miss Yao, are you alright? Xianjun was in a hurry just now, didn't he bump into you, right? "Su Yuping is really a Confucian general, humble and polite.
"Thank you, Yan Yu is fine." Yao Yanyu has always disliked calling herself a 'concubine', so she usually calls herself by her first name. At this point, she didn't think much about it at all, she just steadied herself and looked up at the guy who scared her half to death again, and then she was stunned - huh? This is not that or something...... Guards?
Yao Yanyu couldn't help but go crazy, isn't it a family banquet today? How can there be outsiders?!
"Xianjun, this is the maiden sister of my third brother and sister, and the second daughter of Lord Yao, the governor of Liangjiang." Su Yuping introduced to Wei Zhang, "You guy just scared other girls." ”
"Yanyu?" Wei Zhang looked at Yao Yanyu by dissolving the moonlight, this girl was very good-looking, a pair of crescent moon eyes dissolved the moonlight, more crystalline, just like the black gem inlaid on his beloved Western dagger. This is the third time he's seen this girl, and every time he's a little surprised.
"Major General, please respect yourself." Mama Feng immediately bowed down in the face of Wei Zhang, but her tone was very serious, "It's better not to talk about my girl's famous general." ”
