Chapter 47: The Capital
"The girl has seen this?"
"Not really. Mama, you said that this material is so rare, so the owner of this handkerchief must also be a nobleman? ”
Mama Zhou was very satisfied with Xie An's fast brain, and said, "It must be from Beijing." Girl, you put this veil away first, and if you have the opportunity to pick up the owner of the veil, return it. ”
Xie An also thought deeply of this, she instructed Aimo to put away the veil, and after a few gossips with Mama Zhou, she fell asleep.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, Xie Anyi had just had breakfast in the room, and Xie Anbang sent someone to say that he could leave in half an hour, but he met a friend in Beijing and wanted to go together.
Xie An also had no opinion on this, so he asked Aimo to follow him to report, but when Aimo came back, he said that he had found the owner of the handkerchief.
Coincidentally, Na Buzi belonged to the lady who lived in the second room next door to her.
When the slave and maid returned, they saw three people dressed as maids looking for something in the corridor, and one of them was the one the slave and maid had seen yesterday. The slave maid thought that it would not be such a coincidence, so she asked, but she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, they were looking for a veil.
The slave was afraid that she would be mistaken, so she asked them to tell them what the veil looked like, just like the one we had picked up. So the slave and maid returned the veil. Girl, the slave is wrong, the slave should not be so good at asserting. Aimo thought that what he had done was indeed wrong, and knelt down.
Xie An also didn't take it seriously, let Aimo get up, and said: "It should be returned to the original owner, but this is not allowed next time." ”
"Uh-huh." Aimo nodded hurriedly.
Xie An also thought that she had no chance with the owner of the jade brocade, but who knew that that person had become her first friend after crossing over in ancient times.
……
Although Xie Anbang had sent someone to say that someone would walk with them before, Xie An didn't pay attention to it at all. Just because Xie Anbang's friend must be a man, he will not have anything to do with her, so she is completely unaffected.
Unexpectedly, the man had a family, but their carriage broke down, and it couldn't be repaired for a while. And the owner of the carriage that the next person sat in would not sit at all, so Xie Anbang came to ask if he could let the hostess and Xie An also ride in the same car.
The carriage that Xie Anbang arranged for Xie Anyi was already spacious, and the carriage was covered with soft cushions, which was very comfortable. Xie An also took such a carriage for the first time, and she thought that she was a guest, and now the host wants to invite another guest, so there is no reason to excuse herself, so she nodded and agreed.
After a while, two maids embraced a woman dressed as a woman and got into the carriage. Aimo couldn't help but be stunned when she saw someone coming, and one of the maids was also stunned when she saw Aimo, and whispered something in the woman's ear. The woman looked at Xie Anyi and smiled, "Thank you girl for picking up my veil." ”
Xie Anyi knew that this was the one who lived in the second room of Tianzi, so he hurriedly saluted and said, "The little girl is from Weicheng, Xie Jiaxing is seven, and her name is Anyi." ”
The woman also reported her home, and it turned out to be the wife of Yuwen Haode, the second son of the Yuwen family, but her mother's family was Meng's, Meng Yuting, the eldest granddaughter of Meng's second room. Na Yuwen Haode is also a well-known young talent in Beijing, inheriting the family tradition of young people joining the army and making many military exploits. At the age of eighteen, he was appointed as a general under the account of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, and he married the daughter of the Meng family who was both talented and beautiful, and it was a good story for a while. It's a pity that I heard that it has been more than five years since I got married, but I still haven't had a son and a half daughter, and the whole family is also very worried about this.
The incense of the famous temples and ancient temples around the capital has already been lit, and this time I came out to hear that the Bodhisattva of Jing'an Temple in Weicheng had a miracle, so I went to burn incense and ask for a child together. Last night, I met Xie Anbang at Yuelai Inn Yuwen Haode, and the two were familiar with each other and agreed to return to Beijing together.
And Meng Yuting told Xie Anyi that the reputation of the seventh sister of the Xie family has been very popular in the capital recently, and they all said that she was divorced by the Meng family because of soul loss, but she was chosen as a show girl because of a blessing in disguise. If you can be elected to the palace, you will have the opportunity to serve the emperor, you will be able to glorify your ancestors, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth. And even if you are not chosen by the saint, you can still be selected by the princes, that is also into the heavenly family, and you can also glorify the lintel.
In this way, the two talked freely on the road, and they really hated to see each other. A few days later, when he was about to arrive in the capital, Xie An also found that Meng Yuting's expression had darkened, and he couldn't help but care: "Sister, where are you unwell?" ”
Meng Yuting shook her head, and stopped talking.
Xie An didn't ask anymore, but found that the closer she was to the capital, the more often Meng sighed.
"It's almost home, why does my sister look preoccupied? If you have any troubles, you might as well tell your sister and ask your sister to give her advice. Xie An also saw her like this, and couldn't help but say.
Meng Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not a secret, anyway, my sister will know about it sooner or later when she arrives in Beijing." I have been married to the general for more than five years, but I still have no children. But the general is very fond of me, unwilling to take a concubine, but I feel really guilty in my heart, as the so-called unfilial piety has three, no queen is great, really anxious for me. This time I went to Jing'an Temple, and I don't know if the Bodhisattva can bless him and help the general get a son as soon as possible. ”
"My sister is such a good person, and she will definitely be auspicious. Sister, you know, my sister has suffered from soul loss before. At that time, in order to cure this disease, I also read a lot of books and folk remedies, but I just remembered some, I don't know if I can help my sister? ”
Xie Anyi's words actually still have loopholes, but Meng Yuting is bent on begging for a son, and she has reached the point of going to the doctor when she is sick, as if she has grasped a life-saving straw, and asked: "Sister, say it quickly, but what can I do?" ”
Xie An also pondered for a moment and asked, "When did Sister Kwai Shui come?" Punctuality? ”
Meng Shi didn't expect an unmarried girl to ask this, and couldn't help blushing. The big girl next to her was busy talking about the day, and said that their wife's little days were always punctual.
Xie An also whispered a few words in Meng Shi's ear, and Meng Yuting blushed and nodded.
In fact, Xie An also knows how to use medicine, and he has never read any medical books. It's just that as a modern person, she knows the ovulation period during the safe period, and thinks that if the Meng couple is healthy, then if they count the days of intercourse, the chance of pregnancy is greater.
After another day, the group arrived in the capital. After entering the city gate, Meng returned to the house with General Yuwen, and before leaving, he instructed Xie An to give Xie An a post before the draft, so that she must be a guest at the house, and Xie An also nodded and agreed. Meng Shi was reluctant to get out of the carriage.
As soon as Meng left, Xie An also began to feel bored. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Xie Anbang's voice to come from outside the carriage: "Seventh sister, we have arrived." ”
Xie An was also helped out of the carriage by Aimo Aiyan, only to see a red lacquered door in front of him, and the word "Xie Fu" was particularly dazzling. Sure enough, as the man said, she arrived in the capital and also to the Xie Mansion. Next, isn't it time to do something for him?
