Chapter 15: Miss Yanfu Eight
The carriage arrived at Yan's house in a period of silence, and the butler waited at the gate early, and when he saw the carriage stop, he immediately stepped forward to support the old lady, for fear that something would go wrong.
And behind the housekeeper were several Mrs. Yan.
The eldest grandmother supported the old lady with the housekeeper, and asked the husband on the side in a low voice: "Master, why did you come back so soon today, didn't you say that you went to the banquet to welcome the envoy of Beiyan?" ”
"There was an accident, so I came back first." Prime Minister Yan put his hands behind his back and explained.
"Oh." Mrs. Yan is a person who understands people's eyes, and when she saw that her husband was unwilling to explain more, she didn't ask anymore, turned her eyes back to Mrs. Yan, smiled very softly and whispered: "Mother, Xi Yao is back." ”
"Oh? Yaoyao is back? Old Madam Yan's tone rose a few tones, and she was quite happy to hear it: "This girl is also yes, and she doesn't let someone say a word in advance when she comes back, she is still so frizzy." He said so, but there was not the slightest hint of anger in his tone.
Everyone in Yanfu knows that the most painful thing for Mrs. Yan is Yan Xiruo, the seventh miss of Yanfu, followed by Yan Xiyao, the eighth miss of Yanfu.
The eighth lady of Yanfu is the fourth master of Yanfu, the daughter of today's Zhenguo General Yanda, her mother died soon after giving birth to her, and her father has always been on the frontier and has not come back for decades, so Yan Xiyao has been brought up by Mrs. Yan, and it was not until five years ago that she was sent to her father because of her temperament.
"Grandma, I'm back." As soon as he said this, a fiery red figure flew over there, but stopped in front of Old Madam Yan.
The person who came looked like she was seventeen or eighteen years old, she looked very good-looking, willow eyebrows, big eyes, Yin Tao's small mouth, those words to describe beauty can be used on her body, and a fiery red dress set off her exquisitely perfect. But it is also this girl who looks like a country and a city, but she has a hot temperament.
She looked at Mrs. Yan with a smile, her eyes full of flattery: "Grandma, I'm back." ”
Old Madam Yan shook her head with a smile, a little helpless: "You said you, why hasn't your temperament changed at all, and you are still so frizzy." ”
"Grandma." Coquettishly shook the old lady's hand, and in a blink of an eye, she just met Yan Xiruo's smiling eyes.
"Shiruo." Yan Xiyao let go of the old lady's hand, turned around and pounced, and directly pounced on Yan Xiruo: "Xiruo, are you back?" Why don't you tell me when you came back? ”
Yan Xiruo let her hold herself like a child: "It's been a few days since I came back, I thought you knew, but you didn't know." ”
Yan Xiyao blinked her eyes and rolled her eyes at the sky: "I knew that my father had bad intentions, but it turned out to be the case." Shioruo, will you leave when you come back? ”
"Not leaving, what about you?"
"If Xi doesn't leave, I won't leave either."
The people of Yanfu also know that the relationship between Miss Seventh and Miss Eight, which is particularly good, may be because of the same background, so that they have a better relationship than their biological sisters.
They are like a pair of twins, and no one can see who is wronged. When the princess fell into the water, many people thought that Miss Seven pushed it, but in fact, it was Miss Eight who pushed the princess away that year, and the reason was very simple, because the princess said that Miss Seven was a wild child without parents.
Although this matter was finally borne by Miss Seven alone, Miss Eight did not make a lot of trouble, and in the end, there was really no way, so Miss Eight, who was only twelve years old, was sent to Fourth Master Yan.
I think that when they were still in Yanfu, that day really had to be described as chickens and dogs, and in the years they left, not to mention that everyone was really not used to it at the beginning, these two people are together at this time, I don't know if this Yanfu should be chickens and dogs jumping again.
"Grandma, I want to live with Xiruo." Yan Xiyao held Yan Xiruo's hand with one hand, and while coquettish with Mrs. Yan, her big flickering eyes were very cute.
"You." Old Madam Yan shook her head helplessly, but she couldn't refuse, so she simply let her go: "It's okay to go, don't make trouble for Xiruo, otherwise, I'll clean you up." ”
"I see, Grandma, I'll be good." The naughty face of her smile also infected everyone around her.
Miss Eight of Yanfu seems to have this kind of magic since she was a child, and she can always easily infect the emotions of the people around her, she is like a little sun, always happy.
Yan Xiruo stood beside her, watching her smile happily, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a good-looking smile, I really hope she can be so happy forever.
"Xiruo, let's go, let's go back to the yard, let me tell you, I have a lot of things to say to you, a few years ago, I wanted to go to see you secretly, but my father didn't allow it." Yan Xiyao took Yan Xiruo's hand and walked towards Qingfeng Yuan, pouting and complaining.
"Fourth uncle, that's for your good, you just don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings." They are obviously the same age, but they are like two extremes, one is happy like the sun, and the other is gentle like the moon.
"How can there be, Xiruo, don't you know, I have been in my father's barracks for five years, what kind of days have I lived every day, every morning, the soldiers get up for morning exercises, I have to get up together, anyway, I have to do what those soldiers do, even the food is the same, I can't help but doubt, am I my father's own daughter? It's good that I'm back now, otherwise my father might have sent me to war. Yan Xiyao was counting his father's various wrongs all the way, and Xiruo just listened quietly on the side.
It wasn't until she reached the gate of Qingfeng Garden that Yan Xiyao stopped, blinking at the place in front of her that had not changed.
Yan Xiruo stopped, looked at the quiet person, and said with a smile: "You just complained so much, didn't you enjoy it?" ”
Yan Xiyao smiled and bent her eyes, and pointed to Qingfeng Yuan in front of her: "Xiruo, I know it, grandma really loves you the most." ”
Her Xiyao Pavilion has long lost the appearance of five years ago, when she came back to see it today, she almost didn't recognize it, the Xiyao Pavilion that used to be so refreshing, is now full of all kinds of flowers and plants, she thought she was in the wrong place at first, although it looked really more beautiful than before, but it was completely different from before.
Now when I see Yan Xiruo's Qingfeng Garden, I instantly feel that I have been treated differently, Xiruo has not returned to Yanfu for ten years, but Qingfeng Yuan is still the same as ten years ago, there has been no change at all, except that the trees at the door have grown taller and can see the traces of time, she really hasn't seen any changes.
"Grandma knows that I miss the old, and I haven't changed everything here, what about you, you have liked the new and hated the old since you were a child, if it is still the same as a few years ago, you don't make trouble?" Yan Xiruo's voice sounds very gentle, but she can also hear a different intonation from this gentle voice, if she is talking to someone other than her family, her gentle voice will always carry a sense of alienation, and with her family, her voice is just like her person at the moment, gentle and beautiful.
Yan Xiyao shrugged when she heard Yan Xiruo's words: "Sure enough, Xiruo still understands me, we haven't seen each other for ten years, do you still remember this." ”
Yan Xiruo smiled and shook his head without speaking, turned around and pushed open the door of Qingfeng Garden, for everything about Yan Xiyao, Yan Xiruo may know better than his own grandmother, because this girl is the only one who stands by her side unconditionally no matter whether she is right or wrong, even when her uncles and grandmothers will doubt herself, she also has unconditional belief in her. It is also because of this belief that Yan Xiruo cherishes every one of her even more.
My willfulness once hurt you, and now I give everything I have, and I will keep you safe.
"Miss, you're back." As soon as she opened the door, Mama Lin greeted her, asked amiably, and turned her head to see Yan Xiyao who was smiling on the side: "Miss Eight is also here, hurry up, go sit in the house, although it is almost summer this day, but it is still a little cold this morning and evening, your body is noble, don't be infected with the wind cold." ”
"Mama Lin, look at what you said, am I the kind of person who can easily catch the cold, but don't forget, I have been in the barracks for five years, five years. But ......" Yan Xiyao looked at Yan Xiruo: "Xiruo is really a little thin, Mama Lin, you are too, why don't you make up for Xiruo, you look at her body bones, I feel distressed." ”
Mama Lin was smiling on the side, looking at them as if she were her own children, and she didn't say much.
"If you want to eat Mama Lin's food, you can just say it, why are you still involved with me, and ah, where am I thin, isn't it a little thinner than you?" Yan Xiruo pierced Yan Xiyao's trick with a word, and smiled a little helplessly: "Mama, you can get her something to eat, otherwise I will suffer for a while." ”
"Okay, I'll go get ready." As he spoke, he turned and walked in the direction of the kitchen.
"It's still Xiruo who understands me." Yan Xiyao hugged Yan Xiruo's arm and shook it again.
"Miss, Miss Eight, you're back." Zhiyun was holding two bowls of lotus seed soup in her hand, and she had just met Mama Lin in the kitchen, saying that her young lady and Miss Eight were there, and asked her to get some food, so she hurried over.
"Hey, Zhiyun, why are you here?" Walking into the house with Zhiyun's footsteps, Yan Xiyao asked with a smile.
Zhiyun put down the lotus seed soup in her hand, and her tone sounded very brisk: "Miss Seventh just came back, and she is still a little uncomfortable in the house, so the old lady asked the slave maid to take care of Miss Seven, and Miss Eight arrived today." ”
"Well, I just arrived, but Zhiyun, in the future, you don't just have to serve Xiruo alone."
"Aang?" Zhiyun looked at her a little blankly, and then moved her gaze to Yan Xiruo, who was drinking lotus seed soup indifferently, very puzzled.
Yan Xiruo put down the bowl in his hand, picked up another bowl and put it in the hand stretched out in front of him, watched Yan Xiyao take it and took a sip, and smiled with satisfaction, then looked at Zhiyun and said with a smile: "Yaoyao means, she is going to take root in our Qingfeng Garden." In that short sentence, there is still a hint of naughtiness.
"Huh? Are you sure? Zhiyun was obviously very happy to hear the news: "It's really good, Miss Seven will be accompanied by someone in the future." ”
Yan Xiruo looked at the smile in her eyes, a little moved, this girl was thinking about herself from beginning to end, which can be regarded as a relief.
