Chapter 047: Fang Yiyun
Zhou Shu said a lot, but Jian Ying didn't reply or move, and coughed embarrassedly, "In short, it's me who is wrong, you don't have to take it to heart." ”
Yan stood up and was about to take a step when he suddenly heard a slight snoring sound from the opposite side.
He was stunned, then lifted his forehead and smiled.
There was a fight just now, and she was able to sleep. Also, how could a person like her, who is most afraid of hurting her body emotionally, be angry for someone who doesn't care about it at all?
It's just that he is passionate and trouble-seeking!
I had the heart to carry her to bed, but I was afraid that I would wake her up, and I would be embarrassed. I had to remove the tea cup on the table, close the window facing her, and then go out with a light step.
Seeing Caiping poking her brain outside the door, he ordered: "Your master is asleep, you look at her some."
She didn't sleep very honestly, so don't let her fall down in a daze. Don't ask her to sleep too long, that posture is easy to lose blood. ”
The color screen should be on the lips, and I wonder in my heart what kind of posture it is. After Zhou Shu left, he went into the house to find out. Who knew that as soon as he opened the curtain, he met Jian Ying's bright eyes.
She was startled and blurted out, "Second Young Madam, aren't you asleep?" ”
"What are you doing with a thief?" Jian Ying glared at her, then stood up and moved her hands and feet.
Caiping walked over cautiously, "Second Young Lady, have you reconciled with the Second Young Master?" ”
"Which eye did you see that I was better off with him?" Jian Ying said angrily.
The slave saw both eyes, and the second young master went out angrily just now, and came back after a while. When I went out again, I didn't look so angry, and told the slave to watch you sleep. Cai Ping replied solemnly.
Jian Ying snorted in her nose and was speechless. After doing a few sets of yoga poses, I sweated lightly, and I felt a lot smoother.
After a while, Jiang Ma, Xueqin and others came back one after another to report on what they were responsible for. She was busy scheduling and commanding, so she forgot about Zhou Shu.
Because the Fang clan had already sent people around to say hello, all over the mansion knew that the newly entered Second Young Lady was in charge of this reception banquet, so they didn't dare to slack off, and they all actively cooperated. The preparations went very smoothly, and in less than two days, they were ready to stop.
At the request of King Ji'an, the men's table was placed in the Haoyingxuan, so that the men could express their minds in the misty blue waters of the Maoying Lake. After you have eaten and drunk, you can also take a boat trip to the lake and fish for fun.
The women's seats are placed in the Yuancheng Pavilion, and through the window, you can see the bubbling pearl spring. A stage has been built near the water, where you can watch the spring and enjoy the fish, and listen to the opera on the other.
Zhou Shu was worried at first that Jian Ying would take on this important task for the first time, and she would do something wrong with her hands and send someone to keep an eye on her. Seeing that she arranged everything in an orderly manner, she was relieved. Because of the previous quarrel, I always felt that I would be embarrassed when facing her, so I didn't come to the backyard for a few days.
On the day of the banquet, the prefect of Fang's family came early to show respect and humility.
The wives and concubines of the king of Ji'an and the prince of the world are either high-ranking foreign women, or their status is too low to be on the stage. The only one who is qualified to welcome guests, who can make guests feel valued without damaging the dignity of the palace, is Jian Ying.
Jian Ying got the letter, so she led Zhang's mother and Jiang's mother to the weeping flower gate to greet her.
I saw two soft sedan chairs parked outside the door, and from the first sedan chair came out a beautiful woman in her thirties, with a goose egg face, almond eyes, and a lake blue dress to make people dignified and beautiful.
Out of the second sedan chair was a young girl, fourteen or fifteen years old, already slim. The eyebrows and eyes are five or six points similar to that beautiful woman, full of the fragrance of books, green clothes and white dresses, as cold and noble as snow lotus.
Knowing that this was Mrs. Fang and Miss Fang, he greeted them with a smile.
The two sides saluted, and led the mother and daughter to Jingguo Courtyard to meet Fang's family, Meng Xinniang, Bai Fangfei and others.
After some greetings, Mrs. Fang found that Concubine Qi Shu was not present, so she asked with a smile, "Why don't you see your cousin?" ”
Fang's face changed color slightly, and he couldn't help but scold Concubine Qi in his heart.
For the sake of the prince's face, she was reluctant in her heart, and she also wanted the other party's wife to be courteous. The slut pretended to be sick at this critical time, didn't he mean to hint that the prefect and Mrs. Fang, the palace had treated their cousin badly?
Mother Zhang was afraid that the Fang clan would not be able to suppress her anger and say rude words, so she hurriedly replied: "Concubine Qi Shu is not very well, so she is resting in Pujia Courtyard." ”
"Really?" Mrs. Fang frowned worriedly when she heard this, "Where is my cousin uncomfortable, so sick that she can be serious?" ”
"It's not strict." Mother Zhang's eyes flashed, and she said intentionally vaguely, "I heard that Concubine Qi's Kwai Shui hasn't come for a while." ”
Mrs. Fang understood that Concubine Qi was afraid that she would have it, but she had not yet been diagnosed, and it was not easy to publicize it, so she crossed over to Concubine Qi and did not mention it, and instead said some interesting things on the road.
From the moment she entered the door, Miss Fang only said a few words when she saw the ceremony, and then she sat quietly. Even if it doesn't sound or move, that cold bearing cannot be ignored by others.
Zhou Qin, as a cousin and the oldest lady in the palace, naturally had to take on the responsibility of greeting distinguished guests of the same age, so he accosted Miss Fang, "What does Sister Evian do as pastimes on weekdays?" ”
"Read books, compose poems." Fang Yiyun replied briefly.
"Yes, I've heard that Sister Evian is very talented and has published a poetry collection." Zhou Qin consciously found the topic, so he put on a happy smile, "I don't know if my sister can bring a collection of poems, can you let me read it?" ”
Fang Yiyun glanced at her lightly, not because she was a young lady in the palace, so she used her relatives to get close, "If the third miss is interested, I will ask someone to send a copy another day." ”
"Great." Zhou Qin said happily, "Good things come in pairs, sister should give one more."
My second sister-in-law is also quite famous in the capital, talented people cherish each other, and my second sister-in-law must know how to appreciate my sister's poetry collection better than me.
Isn't it, second sister-in-law? ”
Jian Ying originally listened indifferently, but was suddenly pushed to the front by Zhou Qin, and couldn't help but be stunned, seeing that everyone was looking at her, she smiled humbly: "I'm just a vain name, not like Miss Fang's real talent." ”
"Oh, second sister-in-law, you are too humble." Zhou Qin had nothing to say, and was bent on putting her and Fang Yiyun into a pile, "Sister Iyun, you don't know, my second sister-in-law writes well, and what she is best at is hairpins." ”
Jian Ying saw that Fang Yiyun's eyes suddenly became sharper when she looked at her, her eyebrows couldn't help jumping, and she secretly blamed Zhou Qin for making trouble, and deliberately joked: "Third sister, don't brag for me, aren't you afraid that my small body won't be able to hold up if the cowhide blows up?" ”
