Chapter 12 Marriage Destiny in Progress (12)
On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the sky is clear and there is an occasional breeze, which is a perfect day to climb...... Well, it is also the Fangchen of Princess Yuanjia, many ladies and ladies have been ready to dress up when they want to go out half a month ago, just waiting to become the most outstanding and glamorous one in addition to the eldest princess of Yuanjia!
In fact, many of these people are drunkards who don't care about drinking, but the host doesn't care more than them, if it weren't for Emperor Kangtai's order, Lan Qiduo wouldn't have bothered to bother with some unfamiliar people! It's only right for the family to have a happy meal, and then easily do whatever they like, whether it's horseback riding or boating, she can have fun in this house!
Naturally, there are unfamiliar people, but there are also elders who Lan Qiduo is really treating, so there can be a picture of Lan Qiduo standing at the door of the second gate to greet the old lady of the Tu family and the wife of the patriarch. When the others saw it, they could only sigh that the old man was highly respected, and Her Royal Highness the princess was filial and friendly.
Some old ladies are more direct than the respect of the juniors for them, the kindness of the family, and the husbands, sons, and daughters, so the little girls are much more direct, they are compared to the clothes on their bodies, the jewelry they wear on their heads, and their family background, naturally these invisible guns and arrows, and swords and swords only dare to show when Lan Qiduo is not there, and when they see Lan Qiduo, they are obedient like little sheep!
They have heard that only the prince is coming today, and His Majesty will not come, and as we all know, His Royal Highness the Prince loves Princess Yuanjia very much, since His Majesty is not here, according to Princess Yuanjia's temperament, it is really a wild horse that is out of control, and whoever is not pleasing to the eye can attack on the spot! What's more, today is Princess Yuanjia's birthday, don't they dare to block people on other people's birthdays, didn't they see the seventh princess and the eighth princess coming, and they also piled up on Princess Yuanjia?
Lan Qiduo welcomed the two most respected old ladies in, and sure enough, when the patriarch's wife saw the soft couch with exquisite carving and faint sandalwood fragrance, she patted Lan Qiduo's hand: "Your Highness has a heart!" β
It's one thing to know her preferences, it's another thing to actually make it, although the princess is not very good in the younger generation, but this mind is not everyone's own, and she doesn't believe in those gossips, and she has seen a lot of right and wrong when she lives to her age, and this kind of thing that is just imaginary without evidence is really not very credible.
He turned his head and said to Mrs. Tu: "You have a good granddaughter!" β
Mrs. Tu was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "You old fellow! It's not ashamed to praise yourself in a roundabout way, and it's really old and thick-skinned. β
The rest of the old ladies on the side watched the two sit down, and didn't interject, the people who can sit here are all first-class Taijun, who hasn't seen the price yet, the two fighters sitting on the soft couch are not something they can interject casually!
Those who should eat dim sum eat dim sum, and those who should taste tea still have a smile on their faces.
The patriarch's wife looked at Lan Qiduo inexplicably: "Look at your grandmother!" Where did I provoke her again? β
Mrs. Tu and Mrs. Tu can be said to be older than they were from childhood to adulthood, even when Mrs. Tu married the king of Zhijun and became the princess of the county, Mrs. Tu never scared her, not to mention that now her son is a member of the imperial court, and her son-in-law is today!
The two old ladies are both old people respected by Lan Qiduo, although Lan Qiduo still looks a little faint in front of people, but the movements of her hands are not slow.
After putting all the Lu'an melon slices specially prepared for the elderly in front of him, he looked at the patriarch's wife and said, "Grandmother is saying that my grandmother and I are both members of the Lan family, isn't my grandmother praising myself like this?" β
The hearty laughter of the patriarch's wife resounded throughout the flower hall for a while, and the ladies next to her echoed what Lan Qiduo said when they saw her laughing, even if Lan Qiduo had always not cared about other people's words, she felt that she was extremely thick-skinned at this time.
"Two grandmothers, I'll go and say hello to the guests."
"Go ahead! You only have something to say when you're young, and it's not interesting to listen to us old guys! β
"Yes! Go play with the little girls! β
Lan Qiduo leaned over at this time, in fact, she also knew that her identity was here, and these old ladies would not be comfortable even if they had a grade, so Lan Qiduo simply left.
"It's good!"
Lan Qiduo clapped his hands, and outside the door came in a row of women holding musical instruments or holding things, these women were dressed or dressed very plainly, and they looked very enchanting, and everyone knew at a glance that they were the female ancestors who told the story, or the dancing and singing dancing and singing girls.
"Then the old ladies, please feel free, this flower hall is not a small place, if everyone has different preferences, just change the place, do their own things, don't be polite, the old ladies can come, Yuanjia is very happy in his heart! Have fun! β
"Her Royal Highness the princess has bothered!"
There are more than a dozen old ladies in this big flower hall, but there are also more than a dozen people who Lan Qiduo brings to help the fun, it can be said that they are not unsatisfied, these old ladies are more or less through the wind and waves, how can they not be happy when they are so attentive to them? The elderly actually like to be noticed!
When Lan Qiduo went down, the old ladies were really at ease, and a few old ladies heard that Her Royal Highness the princess had a wide range of preferences, and the singers and dancers in her house even danced Hu Xuan Dance, and these old guys were not young people, and they had never seen them, so five old ladies changed places to watch Hu Xuan Dance, and three wanted to listen to the singer sing a small song, and finally the rest sat in the flower hall with the old lady and the patriarch's wife and did not move, and wanted to listen to the female ancestor tell the story.
But the storyteller's joke made Mrs. Tu a little unhappy.
When she heard the storyteller say the section "Han Sanniang's phoenix crown and xiaxia", she sighed imperceptibly, and then she couldn't hear what the storyteller said!
"What's wrong with you? Today is the princess's birthday! β
The patriarch's wife originally listened to the story while letting people beat her legs, and casually glanced at her old sister, but found that she was a little absent-minded, the two have known each other for most of their lives, and the other party knows whether she is happy or unhappy with every action.
Old Madam Tu sighed: "It's not that I'm not unhappy, I just listened to it, and suddenly remembered, you said that Yuanjia is almost twenty years old this year, why doesn't Your Majesty want to choose a horse for Yuanjia?" Originally, I thought that His Majesty had made a move at the flower-viewing banquet in spring, but it has been a few months, and I look, why is there no movement behind this? β
The patriarch's wife asked people to go down, and when there were only the two of them left, she glanced at the old guy who was not calm and said: "You are the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry, and Your Majesty is not in a hurry to find a horse for His Royal Highness, what are you in a hurry?" β
"Can I not be in a hurry? Yuan Jia's birthday is over twenty years old, how many of our families in Daqi wait until they are twenty years old to marry a girl? My hibiscus went early, leaving the prince and the princess with two motherless children, if I hadn't wanted to watch the two children, I would have gone with her a long time ago! That unfilial son, why don't you want me, just go! β
Her middle-aged loss of her daughter is a sad thing, at this time to say a few words of her eyes are already a little sour, the patriarch's wife doesn't know how to comfort her for a while, fortunately, Lan Qiduo is afraid that it will be inconvenient for them to speak, so she covered it with a screen, and the patriarch's wife handed over the handkerchief and said: "Don't shed tears, today is Yuanjia's birthday, what do you think about those people outside if you cry?" β
Mrs. Tu was sad for a while, but she was sensible, so naturally she would not let such a thing happen, she took a sip of the teacup, calmed down and said: "I am old and old, my heart is soft, and I am always worried that one day I will suddenly go, and those two children will not have a few elders who really plan for them!" β
"You put your heart in your stomach, Your Majesty is not that kind of person, you can open your eyes yourself and know it well!"
The patriarch's wife handed over a small plate of walnuts she had peeled: "Do you know why I am so favored by Yuan Jia's soft couch that crosses the sea with the Eight Immortals?" β
The female storyteller outside couldn't see clearly what the people inside were doing through the screen, let alone what the people inside were saying? However, the nobles didn't stop them and still said their own, anyway, not only will they have the salary of the princess's mansion at that time, but these old ladies will also have a lot of rewards, and it doesn't matter if anyone listens to them or not.
Mrs. Tu took a serious look at the soft couch she was leaning on, and saw that the cloisonnΓ© on it was very good-looking, but she didn't think it was outstanding.
"You didn't deal much with my old sister-in-law who went early, but I got married a few years earlier, and the old man in my family was not convinced, but only what my old sister-in-law said he could listen to. I won't tell you the truth, this soft couch is a complete set with my deceased sister-in-law, and the place where she used to live should still have the same material of Phoenix Yu Fei soft couch. β
Old Madam Tu pondered for a moment and said with some uncertainty: "You mean that Your Majesty may have selected the future pony for Yuanjia?" β
The patriarch's wife looked outside and lowered her voice and said, "I think there is a chance that there will be nine times out of ten!" β
A jade bracelet on Mrs. Tu's wrist turned quickly, and she raised her head and said, "Then do you know who the person is?" β
If you know who it is in advance, you can ask and see who the candidate is. They have a preparation in their hearts, too!
The patriarch's wife said that there was some complexity here and shook her head: "Just the appearance and temperament of this girl Yuanjia, how can no one talk about family affairs, and if you don't tell you, there are several cases of asking for my head......"
"You've never told me!" The old lady was surprised!
The patriarch's wife was surprised: "I'm an old lady's family, and I can't be Your Majesty's lord, what's the use of begging me?" Do I need to tell you? Besides, it is His Majesty's daughter who has been raised for many years in the palm of his hand like a treasure, you said that Your Majesty can still treat the enemy badly, and you are tight at this time, indicating that you don't want others to know the rumors, you! Just prepare a dowry for Yuanjia with peace of mind! β
"That's right! I only hope that Your Majesty will give you a marriage soon! The flower letter of the daughter's family can not be delayed for so many years! β
"Put your heart in your belly! Your Majesty will definitely pick a good one for Yuanjia. β
But they never thought that His Majesty would choose such a colt......
The two old ladies here are talking about Lan Qiduo's marriage in full swing, and they can't even listen to their favorite commentaries, and Lan Qiduo wanders between the ladies and her married sisters and old friends for a while, and finally runs away!
Needless to say, the ladies are more respectful to her, not close enough, and they always look at her very ...... It's so peculiar that Lan Ziduo can even think of how they slandered! It's nothing more than an old girl, a female overlord, and no one wants such words.
But when she went to the young ladies who were already married, she realized what was terrible!
Lan Qiduo doesn't understand, why is every girl who marries so keen to protect people's media? Her cousins and sisters-in-law are all about the same age as her, but at this time, she can't wait to pull out all the young talents in her hands and show them to Lan Qiduo!
Lan Qiduo had to escape from it under the pretext of welcoming His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had already descended to the court, as well as several close uncles, cousins, cousins, and cousins! At this time, she even had a very sad and angry feeling, hurry up and get married! She is just a girl who is almost twenty years old but has not yet married, and it has become an intolerable thing not to marry at this time!
She originally thought that the prince was here to celebrate her birthday, but the atmosphere was a little weird!
Even the prince himself seems to be in a bit of a bad mood! Some forced a smile and said: "Congratulations to the birthday star for staying forever!" Years of good health! β
Lan Qiduo didn't care, he exchanged pleasantries with a few relatives, and handed his eyes to King Liang, but King Liang still had many ministers who were drinking a glass of wine by the way, they looked at Lan Qiduo, and before Lan Qiduo could open his mouth, he reluctantly said: "The old minister is here to say hello to His Royal Highness!" They were all kind elders, and Lan Qiduo smiled and asked them to take them in to eat, drink, and rest.
Lan Qiduo was confused and asked when only the crown prince, King Liang and the prince of Liang were left: "Have the uncles encountered any difficulties?" β
"It's not a difficult thing," even the prince of Liang Wang was a little reluctant to speak.
However, King Liang said a little heartlessly: "Look at what kind of expressions you two have?" Isn't it that Yuan Jia is going to marry Xiahou Yi? β
"Uncle Wang is saying that my father really gave me a marriage?" Lan Qiduo's reaction was a little unexpected, but the crown prince heard the flaw in his words: "You already knew that your father would give a decree to marry today?" β
Lan Qiduo was silent for a while and said honestly: "I know a little." β
The crown prince and the prince of Liang looked at each other, but King Liang said: "Although everyone was caught off guard by the marriage of the imperial brother, in the eyes of this king, this Xiahou Yi can be regarded as a young and promising person, and he is not a good candidate for a horse!" β
Liang Wang Shizi looked at his father, a little miserable, where did you see it? Didn't you see that those ministers in the DPRK and China have already begun to prepare Huo Huo to oppose it? (To be continued.) )
