Chapter 137: Rumors
As the Xuanhui and the ceremony approached, Yang Yunshu became very busy for several days. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBecause they were still short when they opened the mansion in Xuzhou, and the husband and wife both kept a low profile and did not often feast guests, there was no very good cook in the house. Therefore, Yang Yunshu has been looking for someone to help recommend cooks, try dishes, and book tables these days.
As for inviting the female first to come to the book and invite the opera troupe to sing in the hall, Yang Yunshu was also a little hesitant. The Great Zhou stipulates that the national filial piety is forbidden to marry and feast within three months, although it has long passed now, but after all, they still have a layer of family filial piety. If the scene is too lively, it is a little unreasonable. But if you don't invite the same, it's too lonely.
But Mrs. Meng gave Yang Yunshu a good idea: "There is an all-girl drama troupe in Jinling City, and the class owner is also a woman. I have also heard their plays, and they are fresh and elegant, full of charm. If you don't want to be too lively, you might as well invite them to sing. ”
"It's just a little bad," Mrs. Meng said with a smile, "Most of their lyrics are in Wu language, and you and the princess both grew up in the capital, and they are used to speaking official language, but I'm afraid they don't understand it very well." ”
Yang Yunshu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, most of the people who come this time are big families who live in the south of the Yangtze River, as long as the distinguished guests who come can understand." Also, when the time comes, I have to ask Mrs. to bring the third lady over early to help me entertain the guests! Mrs. has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, and Lord Meng's official position is high, so I have to rely on Mrs.'s recommendation so as not to lose face! ”
Mrs. Meng replied with a smile: "If you don't say it, princess, I will definitely come early that day." ”
So, Yang Yunshu sent someone to invite this troupe to come to the hall on the day of the meeting.
Seeing her sister-in-law so busy for herself, Xuanhui was a little unreasonable. She wanted to step forward to help, but was blocked back by Yang Yunshu: "It's a big birthday, and your sister-in-law will give you what you should do, so you can happily wait to be a birthday star!" Take advantage of the fact that you can live a few comfortable days in your mother's house, and you will be busy when you get married! ”
Xuanhui had no choice but to step back and leave everything to Yang Yunshu to do.
On this day, Xuanhui had nothing to do at home, so he changed into men's clothes and took Yuan Xiang and Cai Wei to the street to have a look. As soon as he walked to the bank of the Qinhuai River, it changed and it rained.
A few people hurriedly ran into a teahouse, asked for a window seat on the second floor, and while drinking tea and eating snacks, while watching the river view in the rain, it was also very comfortable.
As soon as Cai Wei took a breath, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "Gong...... Childe, I see that the purse you have been making is only sewn and stitched, do you want a slave, ah no, the slave will make you two tassels and sew them on both sides? ”
Xuanhui was almost angry, she said with a smile: "You, this minion, you have a smart appearance, why do you sometimes talk so stupidly?" Since you know that we are not women at this time, why do you have to mention this? Won't you go home and say no? Let others hear it, and they have to look back to see whose son is so ingenious that he can even make a purse? ”
Cai Wei smiled embarrassedly and said, "Slave, ah no, the slave is on this errand all day, so I'm always thinking about ......"
There was a conversation and laughter between the two of them next to him: "Ouch, isn't this the shopkeeper Jia?" It's rare to see you these days, since you took over the business of King An's Mansion, you don't drink with these brothers in the past! ”
The shopkeeper Jia hugged his fists apologetically: "Boss Ni, I'm really sorry, I've been really busy lately." Today, I have a treat, which is considered to be a compensation for my brother! ”
The Ni boss said in disgust: "This is really, a cup of tea and two sauces of snacks will send me away?" ”
Shopkeeper Jia called Dr. Tea: "Make a pot of red robes!" Then thinly cut a plate duck, a plate of dried tea, and a plate of tea cake! ”
Boss Ni pouted and said, "Brother, I didn't say you, you have done such a big deal, how could you not know where there would be an authentic red robe in such a store?" It would be nice to grow on Wuyi Mountain! ”
"Then change to Taiping Monkey Kui!"
Xuanhui felt that this Boss Ni was really a little ignorant, and the thick sour taste in his mouth was enough to see.
Shopkeeper Jia seemed to have the same opinion as Xuanhui, just peeling the broad beans on the plate and eating them, and did not speak.
Boss Ni mysteriously leaned over and smiled: "I said brother, can you make the hairpin of Princess Xuanhui?" I heard that it was Princess An who found the Hetian jade seed material from the treasure at the bottom of the prince's box, and the brother didn't know if there was any blessing to see? ”
Shopkeeper Jia shrank his neck and said, "Don't hurt me!" That's the princess and the hairpin used by the princess, if there is any mistake, I will sell the whole family and not be able to pay it back! ”
"Look at what you said, no matter what, it's just a hosta......"
"After delaying the princess and the princess, can you deal with the prince, or can you deal with the prince?"
Boss Ni said disappreciatively: "No matter how big it is, it is also a woman's family's business, and the prince is still too rare to care about this?" ”
Shopkeeper Jia said proudly: "Don't you know? The prince and the princess were married by the first emperor, and they will be the princess in the future! You say it's none of his business? I said Boss Ni, if you want to do the business of high-ranking officials and nobles, you have to find out the situation first! ”
Boss Ni said sourly: "You said this, who doesn't know?" Some of the inns in Jinling City have booked out those, aren't they all here to celebrate the princess? Prince An has only been out of Beijing for more than a year, and now he can gain a foothold in Jiangnan, relying on the support of the prince. ”
"I know all of this, but," he said, looking left and right, frowning, "I don't know what to say about this in the future!" Shopkeeper, don't do the business of King An's Mansion and be arrogant. That Princess Xuanhui was already married to the Marquis of Xiping when she was in the capital! I'm afraid that the marriage contract with the prince has been made a long time ago! ”
Shopkeeper Jia was really attracted to it, he stopped eating broad beans, and asked in a panic, "What do you say?" Can the Guogong Mansion break with King An's Mansion again? ”
Boss Ni said triumphantly: "Why can't you? You go to inquire, since the prince's family arrived in Jinling, how many times have the two families moved? One lives in the Guogong Mansion and the other lives in the East Garden, so close and didn't move, what does it mean? Also, such a character as the prince of the world, if you let him marry a second marriage and go home, is he happy? That's why I say, this marriage is a long time ago! ”
Yuan Xiang and Cai Wei were furious when they heard this, and they were about to roll up their sleeves and quarrel with him, but they were held down by Xuanhui.
"It's a rumor, so why bother with it, those who are clear will clear themselves. Besides," she chuckled, "does my identity have to be brought over by Pei Shizi to be precious?" ”
"Naturally not!" The guest at the table behind Xuanhui turned around and smiled. (To be continued.) )
