Chapter 3: Mother's Words
The Yongle Mansion sits on the emperor's gift, gathers the best feng shui in the capital, backs to the Lingshan Mountain, and embraces the beautiful water. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Not to mention that the fruit trees around the mansion are lined up, the flowers and plants are luxuriant, and the fragrance is fragrant all year round. Just gathering the beauty of the mountains and rivers is enough to envy the dignitaries of the capital.
The Yongle Mansion is kind and charitable, and often scatters silver and rice, which doubles the connections of the mansion.
The mansion covers an area of about 100 acres. The pavilions and pavilions stand intricately, tall and short, built in accordance with the Jiangnan style, euphemistic and simple, quite like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, vigorous and vigorous.
Mrs. Qian is the head of the house, and has three sons and one daughter under her knees, all of whom have started a family and started a business, and they are also prosperous in the court.
Mrs. Tai is a blessed person who does not need to be busy, has a large family business and a large population, and naturally has many outstanding talents, and she is also happy to enjoy the joy of family. Surrounded by grandchildren every day, this day is a race over the gods, free and comfortable.
However, then again, although this is a big family, it is the envy of others. But as the old saying goes, this family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and Yongle Mansion is no exception.
Everyone in the house has their own thoughts, each has their own calculations, and gradually, there is a gap between the family affection that is thicker than water, and the appearance is separated. The intrigue will be staged several times a day, and the open and secret words have drifted into the ears one after another, white, black, and some people have their minds reversed, and the ears of salty and light listeners are calloused. At this time, Mrs. Tai always had a thunderous expressionless face and did not say a word. Just let those people complain. A wise person can see the clue, and he will no longer tell right and wrong. The backyard maintained the peace that the aristocracy should have.
Seeing that the grandchildren are like onions in the ground, growing up one by one, one by one, and their appearance is one by one, all of them are dragons and phoenixes among people, and they have all reached the age of talking about marriage, and they have added joy.
No, for the sake of the sons and ladies in the house, the second lady Liu made a clever plan to hold a grand banquet in the garden, which was called the "Old Meeting". Invitations were sent to the dignitaries and nobles in the capital, inviting the ladies and ladies to come to the banquet with their sons and young ladies from various families.
Clear-eyed people can know at a glance that this is the Queqiao Club, which is convenient for each family to see people. Therefore, the noble ladies who have nothing to do enjoy this kind of banquet very much, first, to have fun, and second, maybe there will really be their favorite beautiful children. Everyone flocked to it, and the banquet was far more spectacular than imagined.
Today, the eldest lady Qian sent Hong'er to find Zhang Yuxia for this matter.
Zhang Yuxia at this time is no longer that time. She knew Qian's intentions in her heart.
At the same time, I am also thinking about the future. If you have something in your heart, you won't feel slow under your feet. Unconsciously, he has entered the Qian's green forest residence.
Yu'er, a first-class girl beside Qian's side, greeted her with a smile, "Miss, Madame has been waiting in the house for a long time. ā
Zhang Yuxia smiled indifferently, solemn and reserved.
Yu'er was secretly strange in her heart, Miss looked weird today, if she put it aside on weekdays, she would inevitably be delicate and weak, pulling and blocking Shi Li, and today it seems that ------- has a little more extravagance.
Approaching the door of the house, Zhang Yuxia turned around unexpectedly, and looked at Zixuan, the girl who was following behind, and said, "Zixuan, you can stay outside and talk to Yu'er." ā
The two little girls were stunned and stared at each other. After a long time, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and the eldest lady was suddenly reborn overnight, which made people uncomfortable.
However, this idea was quickly suppressed by another thought. Play is the nature of eleven or twelve-year-old girls. Two girls who are in the lively season, how can they let go of this gap. The conversation between the young lady and the lady will not be too short, and the two girls will be able to play as much as they want.
The two looked at each other and smiled, turned and ran to the side yard. The side courtyard is the residence of the maids and servants in the courtyard, the environment is clean and spacious, and some seasonal flowers and plants are planted. At first glance, the living did not believe that it was the servant's dwelling.
In the main house of Cuilin Residence, Zhang Yuxia was upright, sitting on the beauty couch and looking at Qian's unfinished embroidery. It is a very gorgeous peony flower, the peony flower blooms richly, meaning auspicious, and is deeply loved by people in the world. The peony flowers on the embroidery are clearly layered, distinctly colored, vivid and lifelike. Zhang Yuxia smiled, picked up the needle and thread, and embroidered it seriously.
Qian's body was weak in his early years, and he was not completely cured, and he fell into the root of the disease, and he was sick all year round. He has a gentle temperament, and has a deep relationship with Zhang Zhongming, the Marquis of Yongle, and respects each other like guests.
The girl next to Qian's side, Yue'er, took the refreshments and led the servants to retreat. The room was quiet and serene, and Zhang Yuxia enjoyed such warmth. She raised her eyes to look at Qian's smiling face, and even the shallow wrinkles were overflowing with love, which made Zhang Yuxia's heart feel relieved and warm.
"Mother, why did you call your son?" Zhang Yuxia kissed lightly.
"Your second aunt plans to hold a banquet in the back garden early next month. On that day, the crown prince and several other princes will come, and Sister Xia should not take it lightly and lose her posture. As Qian spoke, his face became a little solemn unconsciously. The mother is worried about her daughter's lifelong event, and her daughter is the mother's intimate little padded jacket, how can the mother not be concerned.
Zhang Yuxia's heart tightened and trembled, she really couldn't take it lightly. I remember that in my previous life, it was at this banquet carefully arranged by the second aunt that Zhang Yuyan and the crown prince Zhao Yun met. Later, Zhang Yuyan began an intimate relationship with her. Once, she never doubted the clues, those two smiling eyes were like two clear springs, clear and translucent, who would have thought that there would be a deep evil heart, a bad heart that would take her life. In Zhang Yuyan's heart, has there ever been sisterhood?
It is four or five days until the beginning of next month, and it is time to ponder. Since it was this encounter that turned their lives upside down, then a tooth for a tooth, and a treat for others in the way of others.
Zhang Yuxia rested her hands on her knees, stunned. Qian's words didn't listen to a few points, vaguely the prince's status is noble, dignified character and other words of admiration, Zhang Yuxia has a long aftertaste, like chewing wax, bitter and indescribable
At this time, Yue'er's voice floated into the house through the window, "Hello Second Miss." ā
Immediately, the giggles of the second lady Zhang Yuyan poured into Zhang Yuxia's heart like the water of the heart lake. Zhang Yuxia's back rolled up one after another.
In his previous life, he was deceived by Zhang Yuyan's innocent appearance, and in this life and this life, he really doesn't want to face her like a ghost. However, ghosts rely on their pestering skills, living in the same courtyard, how can they be sisters, and where can they hide.
As soon as Zhang Yuyan stepped into the door, she obediently saluted Qian on the couch, Qian hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her, Zhang Yuyan took advantage of the situation to hold Qian's hand and sat on the edge of the couch, "Auntie, it's like coming to see you these days." Helplessly, grandmother always asked Swift to accompany her and tell her jokes. Today, when my grandmother was free to go out, I came to see you, and my aunt should not be angry with the swifts. ā
To Zhang Yuxia's ears, this is just another clever rhetoric to cover people's ears, and her acting skills are clumsy, which is really despicable.
Where can the Qian family see through whether the people are sincere or false, and they were coaxed to laugh, and they only gave up after a long time of persuasion.
Zhang Yuxia smiled on her face, only embroidered peonies without any side, and did not speak.
Zhang Yuyan moved over and sat next to Zhang Yuxia, head to head, face to face.
Both of them are equally fresh and lovely, well-behaved and clever. Qian smiled contentedly, the sisters are in love, isn't this very gratifying, and when they leave the cabinet in the future, they will often get together to chat about their girlfriends, so that they will not be lonely and lonely.
How does the kind-hearted Qian know that there are deer and rabbits in this world who are kind by nature, and there are foxes, wolves, cats and dogs who are insidious by nature, and they are not the same.
Zhang Yuxia is like a heart lake at this time, the lake is calm and calm, and the bottom of the lake is already turbulent, ready to go.
"Sister, your embroidery work is so good, tomorrow, my sister must teach me." Zhang Yuyan was coquettish uncontrollably.
Zhang Yuyan, your mind is far more dense than that of the eldest sister, if you really wanted to learn, you would have learned it a long time ago. I'm afraid this is also a prelude to your approach to the crown prince.
Zhang Yuxia raised her head and smiled, her smile was neither deep nor shallow, revealing alienation, and her eyes did not see the joy of the past, which was unfathomable. Seeing that Zhang Yuyan was weak and irritable for a while, a cold sweat appeared on her back, and her enthusiasm quickly faded with this coldness, until it was completely gone.
"Sister, don't you want to teach me?" There was sadness in the tone, panic after panic, and the eyes were dull.
Zhang Yuxia stared at it for a while, and suddenly smiled, her eyes full of smiles. But Zhang Yuyan sensitively and accurately perceived that there was no sincerity there, more like ridicule, sharp ridicule. This sharp look was like a sharp blade, slashing at her, Ling Chi at Zhang Yuyan's vain heart. Zhang Yuyan was really annoyed, and she wanted to disappear from here immediately. It's all to blame for her mother, encouraging herself to move around with her eldest sister more, to tell the truth, she has never looked down on Zhang Yuxia, she is weak and incompetent, but she is a good fate, it is the life of the eldest sister, and everything has to pass from her. And she could only bow on her knees, inferior to her. Therefore, maybe it is revenge, or maybe it is due to the psychology of comparison, but everything in Zhang Yuxia's hand, she has to grab it, and her heart will be balanced for a short time.
