CHAPTER XV
The wife of the Imperial Doctor scheduled the garden party for June 26. On this day, Tong Yan dressed up a little, still wore Yun Shangxuan's three-color skirt, and came to the palace of the imperial historian in a sedan chair early.
There were more people in the garden one after another, Tong Yan sat in the corner, no one had paid attention to her, Tong Yan was a little lost, originally she thought that she would meet a few friends in the garden party, so that her life could be more colorful, but she didn't expect everyone to point more at her, or look at her to cover her mouth and snicker. Xinghua Chunlan stood behind Tong Yan, also a little uncomfortable, her own young lady may not understand, because of the relationship between Master Tong, plus the white hosta that was broken on the day of the ceremony, everyone looked down on Tong Yan, and now Tong Yan appeared alone in public, everyone felt that the Tong family was a little faceless and skinless. But since Miss has come to the garden party, if she leaves without even having lunch, it will be even worse, and it seems that Miss has no tutor. So, the two could only frown and continue to stand, occasionally adding tea to Tong Yan and taking snacks.
For nearly an hour, Tong Yan was bored looking at the yard full of people and flowers, until a girl suddenly stood in front of Tong Yan.
Tong Yan looked up at the girl in front of her in a little surprise, with thin eyebrows and phoenix eyes, her skin was the same as before, with a healthy wheat color, without deliberately dressing up, it was the kind of ordinary that no one noticed when she was thrown into the crowd. But just this ordinary girl, her eyes were shining like dewdrops, and those eyes were staring at the child's face seriously, looking carefully.
Tong Yan was a little uncomfortable staring, bit her lip, stood up and saluted the girl in front of her, wanting to ask what was so eye-catching to the girl. Therefore, no one cares about it, and being stared at like this makes my heart even more bottomless.
Before Tong Yan could speak, the girl spoke first: "You are Tong Yan?" There was no coldness, no disdain, no ridicule, only a curiosity.
Tong Yan felt that his brows jumped, but he still replied politely: "The little girl is Tong Yan, I don't know ......"
"Brother Hao said that you are busy finding a big family to marry, is it true?" The girl interrupted Tong Yan's words, but the question she asked made Tong Yan feel embarrassed, and even Xinghua Chunlan felt that she had a few black lines hanging on her head.
However, this girl mentioned three key words - Brother Hao! Tong Yan's mind immediately jumped out of Su Hao's neat face with a smile of underbeating, it must be something Su Hao did again, why does this person always have to go against himself!
"The girl misunderstood, Tong Yan ......"
"Brother Hao won't lie to me!" Tong Yan was interrupted again, and his brows jumped twice.
"This girl ......" "It's really good to be able to choose your own husband's family!"
Tong Yan felt that her ears were burning, and she was a yellow flower girl and a strange woman discussing her marriage in public? Tong Yan felt that he would either end the topic quickly, or change the topic quickly, otherwise he would really dig a pit and bury himself. "This girl, Tong Yan never thought about getting married, nor did she think about choosing her husband's family. I don't know how the girl knew Tong Yan, and how could she listen to that 'Brother Hao' say these outrageous words? "Ha, I actually said this sentence completely! Tong Yan took a deep breath, feeling that he had finally won a game.
The girl in front of her smiled, smiling very happily, not only grinning at the cherry mouth, revealing a mouthful of bright white teeth, but also emitting a "hahaha" laugh, this laughter attracted all kinds of eyes around, surprised, disgusted, disdainful, only the child's eyes were envious. Tong Yan has laughed like this before, but since he came to the capital, he has to follow the rules that various young ladies should follow, and Tong Yan has not laughed like this for a long time. The girl in front of her ignored these rules and the strange eyes around her, and smiled so freely, Tong Yan was really envious, very envious.
The girl's laughter attracted not only the eyes of the surroundings, but also the figures of two handsome guys, Su Hao and Shi Tianyu appeared behind Tong Yan at the same time, looking at this happy woman, with a black face. Seeing Su Hao and Shi Tianyu, the girl smiled, pointed at Su Hao and said to Tong Yan: "Oh, look at your back, it's that 'Brother Hao'!" ”
Tong Yan raised his eyebrows, turned around and saw Su Hao and Shi Tianyu with dark faces, and was startled. How did these two end up here? Shi Tianyu is also the son of an official eunuch, but I haven't heard that the wife of the imperial doctor will invite a businessman like Su Hao. Shi Tianyu bowed his hand to Tong Yan, apologized for the unreasonable girl in front of him, and pulled the girl to leave, but the girl slapped Shi Tianyu's hand, held Tong Yan's arm, and pouted to the two black-faced men, and said dissatisfiedly: "Your words are unreliable, especially Brother Hao's words, I think Tong Yan is very cute, where is what you say." ”
The two handsome guys in front of them glanced at each other, Tong Yan was not cute, they didn't care, what they cared about was that they could take away the little ancestor in front of them, don't continue to attract attention in the garden, it will be difficult to explain in front of Mrs. Shi for a while, look at this girl, it was Mrs. Shi who gave instructions before she came. But the girl just grabbed Tong Yan tightly and didn't let go, Tong Yan stood awkwardly, listening to Shi Tianyu and Su Hao coaxing this girl, as if she was a transparent person.
In the end, the girl still let go of Tong Yan and left with Su Hao Shi Tianyu, and before leaving, she deliberately blinked her bright eyes at Tong Yan, and Tong Yan began to wonder if there was something wrong with the girl's eyes.
After a while, someone came over to beckon everyone to eat in the flower hall. During meals, men and women sit separately with screens in between. Tong Yan found an inconspicuous place to sit down, the stool was not yet hot, and the girl before also sat down next to her with a big grin. Tong Yan tugged at the corners of her mouth, which was regarded as a greeting, but the girl didn't care about Tong Yan's ignorance, and said to herself: "I heard my cousin and Brother Hao mention you, Brother Hao said that you are heavy-minded, but I think you are a good girl." By the way, my name is Miao Yuyu, Shi Tianyu is my third cousin, he is actually very good, but he was taken by Brother Hao, you must not mind. "Tong Yan wants to hold her forehead, what does she have to mind, but Miss Miao, can you be like a normal girl, now the two of us are already in the limelight, okay?
"Oh, by the way, you must not have heard of me, I also came to the capital from southern Xinjiang a few days ago, as soon as I entered the house, my aunt looked at me to death, and she didn't let me go anywhere. Don't you think these people are boring? I don't dare to do anything, I don't even dare to laugh, I look like the wind blows down, and I feel dizzy when I see a cat. Even if Tong Yan didn't pay attention, this Miao girl still didn't stop talking.
"Oh, by the way, you can come and play with me in a few days, and I'll stay at my cousin's house. I've been in the capital for several days, and I haven't even gone out to play, and my aunt won't let me go out, and my cousin won't let me go out. I heard that there are a lot of fun things in the capital, and there are a lot of delicious food, you come to me, take me out to play, we don't bring my cousin and Brother Hao, they will not do anything except take care of me, with them here, there is no way to play. ”
Miss Miao, you really don't see it, Tong Yan has completely lost to Miao Yuyu's mouth, except for nodding. Miss Miao, I really can't stop your mouth when I eat.
……
After lunch, Tong Yan ate in a trance, and after the meal, she said goodbye to Mrs. Yu Shi, she wanted to go home!
