Since returning from the Beiding Palace, a month has passed, and the weather has gradually gone to the end of summer and early autumn, but Xu Youshan's life has not changed much, the only thing is that Xu Mingcheng is very quiet, and it can almost be regarded as not going out of the door, and the second door is not stepping.

For example, now—

"Please, don't be so exaggerated, okay?" Xu Yourong said to Xu Mingcheng, who was about to shrink into the corner.

"As long as you don't force me out, I won't." Xu Mingcheng insisted.

This is Xu's Mansion in Qilin Fang, and Xu Youshan's four are now in Xu Mingcheng's boudoir Qingzhu Courtyard. Originally, after Sheng Anxuan left school, their "base camp" was in Xu Yourong's Weizhou Courtyard, but after returning from the Beiding Palace, Xu Mingcheng was really Qilinfang and Sheng'anxuan, and they would definitely not go to other places.

Even told her today that Pei's was going to take them to Xuanzhaoxuan, but Xu Mingxuan still didn't want it.

"How long are you going to be a turtle like this?" Xu Yourong airway.

"How long can it be, how long can it be." Xu Mingcheng said.

Alas...... Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen stood at the end, and sighed, originally Xu Mingcheng was evasive about Xie Wen, and even more so after passing through the Beiding Palace, but to make matters worse, Mrs. Qi and Mrs. Zheng informed them a few days ago that Princess Deming's banquet and the post in the palace had been delivered, and they had to participate.

This time, Xu Mingcheng was directly wilted.

"Xu Mingxi, tell me, do you really want to do this? Do you think that if you resist so passively and don't go to the clothes and jewelry that you will wear that day, you don't have to go to the banquet? Then I can tell you right now, it is impossible, and on that day, even if it is tied up, you will be tied up. ”

Xu Yourong no longer pulled Xu Mingcheng out, but after she let go, she said coldly.

When Xu Mingcheng heard this, she also froze, but she was silent, and even turned her back and stopped looking at them.

"Xu Mingcheng ......"

"Big sister."

"Sister Rong." When Xu Yourong saw Xu Mingcheng like this, she immediately hated that iron could not be made of steel and wanted to be angry, but Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen stepped forward in time to stop her, shook their heads, and motioned for them to go first.

In the end, Xu Yourong stomped his feet, turned around and strode away. Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen said hello to the silent Xu Mingcheng before leaving.

And after they left, Xu Mingcheng slowly turned back, looking at the figures of Xu Youshan and the three of them until she couldn't see anymore, she didn't retract her gaze.

……

……

"Sister Huan'er is not feeling well?"

Xu Youshan and the three of them went out of Qilin Fang, and after returning to Dongyang Lane, they went to tell Pei Shi that because Xu Mingcheng was a little uncomfortable after school today, so she didn't go to Yuzhaoxuan, and let them choose a set for her casually.

After Pei Shi heard this, he asked without any reaction, Xu Youshan and the three of them quietly glanced at each other, and finally pushed Xu Youshan out.

"Uh...... Belch... Yes, that's what Sister Tan said. Xu Youshan stammered.

"That's right."

After Xu Youshan was so obviously wrong, Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen behind her immediately had a "miserable" expression, but Pei Shi smiled softly at Xu Youshan, so she didn't ask any more, and under the obvious surprise of the three of them, Pei Shi only said one sentence, asking them to freshen up and change their clothes and prepare to go out.

Being able to let them go so easily, Xu Youshan and the three of them didn't expect it, but this is a good thing, so except for Xu Mingwen, who was ready in Qilin Fang, Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan hurriedly went back to Weizhou Courtyard and Zhengyan Pavilion, and after dressing as fast as possible, they went to the Early Autumn Pavilion to meet Pei's family and leave the mansion.

Xuanzhaoxuan is located on Xiling Road, one of the four main roads of Shendu, and the advantage of geographical location is needless to say, so Pei took Xu Youshan and the four of them from Dongyang Lane, and it didn't take long to arrive at the gate of Xuanzhaoxuan on Xiling Road.

"This is Illumination."

After getting out of the carriage at the last one, Xu Youshan looked at the small two-story pavilion made of all wood in front of her, and she really couldn't imagine that such a place that could only be described as a beautiful small building at most was actually the place where the gods were making money every day.

Rising every day!!

Xu Youshan remembered a certain inn that could only make a little money, and she really had to grind her teeth.

How can that bastard be so good at making money?

"Youshan, what are you doing? Come on in. Just when Xu Youshan became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and she really wanted to grind her teeth, Xu Mingwen called her back to her senses with a bang.

"Oh, here it is." Holding Yuedai's hand, Xu Youshan hurriedly walked over, followed behind Xu Ming's wife, and entered the Xuanzhaoxuan.

From the outside, it is just a small building that is quite fine, clear and delicate, not very eye-catching, but it will not ignore it. But as soon as people walk in, the fragrance of the precious Muga fragrance that rushes to their faces first makes people feel refreshed. As long as you look up, you can see all kinds of precious furnishings, which will also make people dazzled.

However, if it is Pei's family, Xu Yourong, and Xu Mingwen, it will be fine, not to mention dazzling, there will not even be a trace of distraction. But if it's Xu Youshan...... Blinking her eyes fiercely, Xu Youshan struggled to retract her gaze that was glued to all kinds of rare things.

"It turned out to be Mrs. Xu, I haven't seen you for so long, and I thought you had forgotten about the shop."

As soon as Xu Youshan and his party walked into the Xuanzhaoxuan, a middle-aged man with a rich face trotted down from the second floor. Besides, he was wearing a warm silk robe that only Xuan Zhaoxuan could make, which was really rich and unstoppable.

"I really didn't expect you to be in Xuanzhaoxuan today, fortunately, the second shopkeeper." Pei Shi said politely.

Seriously, with Pei's current identity, there are really not many people who can make her so polite, but in Xu Youshan's eyes, she was not surprised at all, but stood behind Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen, and looked at this person carefully, Jiang Chunjin's second shopkeeper, Cai.

"Oh, Mrs. Xu, what you said, it should be the grass people who are fortunate to meet, how can it be you, hurry up, please take a seat." Jiang Chunjin's second shopkeeper enthusiastically led the Pei family to the second floor, and ordered them to hurry up and serve tea.

The second floor of the Xuanzhao Xuan is similar to the furnishings on the first floor, which are mainly based on dazzling human eyes, but it is a little less than the first floor, and it is a little more valuable.

"You may be seated, you may be seated."

After the second shopkeeper and Pei went up to the second floor, under the leadership of the second shopkeeper, they walked into the only elegant room on the second floor, Pei and the second shopkeeper took their seats, and Xu Youshan and the three of them sat down in order under Pei's head.

"Please drink tea, please drink tea." The second shopkeeper said diligently.

"The second shopkeeper is polite." Pei Shi smiled: "I came to your store today to customize a few sets of clothes and jewelry, I heard that Xuan Zhaoxuan has recently entered Beijing with another batch of Wen Aya, I don't know if I can cut my love?" ”

Wen Aya is the secret treasure of Xuan Zhaoxuan, and it can also be said to be the reason for the success of Xuan Zhaoxuan, because so far, Wen Aya's precious cloth is not made by anyone except Xuan Zhaoxuan, and now, in addition to the annual tribute to the royal family Xie family, if others want to buy it, it is also priceless.

Of course, Pei Shi also knew this, but after she finished speaking, Xu Youshan and the three next to her were surprised.

This eldest princess Deming's banquet, they had to go, but it was not voluntary, so they thought about it, it would naturally be that day, the less outstanding the better, but if they wore this warm silk robe, wouldn't it become the attention of everyone?

"This ......" The second shopkeeper was embarrassed: "Mrs. Xu, you should also know that the number of Wen Aya is limited, and after excluding the ones sent to the palace, there are even less, and this time it is not a coincidence, it has been booked out." ”

"That's a shame." Pei Shi said with a look of pity.

But the three Xu Youshan next to her, their faces under the veil all breathed a sigh of relief: Great!!

"Then since this is the case, there is no way, please ask the second shopkeeper to let the embroidery girls come over and tailor the formula for us." Pei's interest was like a sudden loss, and said lightly.

"Okay, okay, everyone, wait a minute." The second shopkeeper went out with an apologetic face.

After the second shopkeeper went out, Xu Yourong lifted the curtain of the hat, and wanted to ask Pei Shi why she wanted to warm the silk robe just now, but she had just lifted the curtain, Pei Shi looked over, Xu Yourong quickly closed his mouth, put down the curtain, and did not speak again.

It was in this electric light and flint that the announcement sounded outside the door of the elegant chamber, and the embroidery girls came.

"Let them in."

The door opened, and the second shopkeeper led the three embroidery girls in, "Mrs. Xu, these are the three best embroidery girls in Xuanzhaoxuan, about Wen Aya, I'm really embarrassed today, but in order to apologize, your cost shop is covered today, and please don't remember the villain." ”

"The second shopkeeper is serious, Wen Aya is scarce, and it is not your fault that there is no quantity, and this small cost is not a large amount, so there is no need to push it around like this, I just hope that when you have good jewelry and robes in the future, I hope you can send one to the house first." Pei Shi smiled, but his words were still faint.

"That's nature, that's nature, you can rest assured, as long as the store has a new style in the future, the first one will be sent to your house, and please have a favorite when you arrive, be sure to appreciate your face." The second shopkeeper said.

"Then thank you to the second shopkeeper."

"Where, where, you're serious."

For the rest, there was nothing to do with the second shopkeeper, so the second shopkeeper said goodbye to Pei Shi with a smile, Pei Shi didn't dare to hold it up at this time, but still got up to return the salute, and Xu Youshan and the three of them on the side were busy getting up and returning the salute.

After the second shopkeeper left, the door was closed, and Xu Youshan and the three took off their hats under Pei's signal, let the embroidery girl measure for them, and then formulated patterns and styles, and let Pei and Xu Youshan look at them one by one, until they chose what they liked.

But after changing a few styles, Xu Youshan and the three of them felt good, but Pei was still not very satisfied, and finally it was getting late, so they had to ask the embroidery girls to go back and formulate a few more patterns and send them to Xu's house, and after the embroidery girls were busy, Pei set seven sets of clothes and jewelry that she thought were okay, and they went back to Dongyang Lane.

And on the carriage back to Dongyang Lane, when there were finally only a few of them, Xu Yourong finally couldn't help asking: "Mother, how could you buy Wen Aya from the second shopkeeper just now?" ”

Hearing this, Pei Shi glanced at Xu Yourong and said, "Don't you know what Wen Aya is, I can have it?" ”

"Why do you want to say it?" Xu Yourong's voice unconsciously lowered under Pei's eyes.

"What do you say?" But Pei asked funny.

Belch...... How would she know.

Xu Yourong puffed out his cheeks and looked back at Pei's, while the rest of Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen also looked at Pei's with puzzled expressions.

And Pei Shi saw Xu Yourong like this, and suddenly smiled helplessly: "You, you can't turn around so much, you will marry someone in the future, what will you do." "If you really go to the shit and marry into a good family, and the mother-in-law's family doesn't make things difficult, then it's okay to say; But if you marry into a family that talks about rules and can boil up your daughter-in-law, then Xu Yourong's temperament of not liking around and turning around will really have to be planted.

"Mother." After listening to Pei's words, Xu Yourong immediately blushed and shouted.

And Pei Shi looked at the shy Xu Yourong, so he stopped teasing her, and said: "You don't want to go to the banquet, we all know it, but the current situation in the court is treacherous, and our Xu family can't get out, but it also involves you to do such an unwilling thing, which is really embarrassing for you." ”

Pei's words fell, Xu Youshan and the three of them really didn't expect Pei to say such words, and they were stunned, but before they came back to their senses to refute it, Pei Shi continued: "But you are the daughters of the Xu family, no matter where you go, whether you want to be willing or not, the focus is on you, then even if you want to be deliberately inconspicuous, it is impossible, and it will even cause suspicion and gossip from others, so when you are in an unstable high position, no matter what you want to do that does not conform to this position, You all have to think of a hundred reasons in advance. ”

And the failure to buy Wen Aya today is the best reason.

Xu Youshan and the three of them didn't expect that they just wanted to dress luxuriously on the day of the eldest princess Deming and the banquet, and they could still involve so many things, and they couldn't say a word for a while.

And Pei didn't urge them, the carriage ran quietly like this, all the way back to Dongyang Lane.

……

……

The next day, Xu Youshan woke up before the hour, opened her eyes, stared blankly at the top of the wooden smoke screen tent with pale pink embroidered white hibiscus flowers for a while, and then turned her head blankly to look at the rosewood tray in the shape of a plum leaf containing a night pearl next to the bedside for a while.

Now, it was not yet dawn, the sky was not yet bright, the earth was dark, and the same was true in the Zheng Goose Pavilion, except for a few faint lights, everything was still silent.

Xu Youshan was also silent, silently looking at the night pearl beside her.
