Chapter 82: Finding a Husband
"The concubine Ye came to see the Empress Dowager, the saint Wan'an. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Get up, come over and let the old man see."
Jing Niang stood up as she said, lowered her head and walked to Xie's seat with unhurried steps, almost less than two steps away, before raising her head.
In Xie's eyes, this little girl has been very different, Xu has walked between life and death, and there is no longer the same caution in her eyes, but instead of a calm, like a pool of clear water in a deep pool, the waves are not happy.
Thinking that she might not know that not only her husband, but even her seventy-year-old father was on the front line, Xie sighed secretly in his heart, took her hand, and only felt a coldness at the tentacle, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"How can it be so cold? You're ......."
"Back to the words of the saint, the concubine will be raised for a long time, and it has been very good, maybe it is cold today, so it is a little cold, so it is okay."
Xie Shi looked at her thin cheeks, didn't say anything more, patted his side, and motioned for her to sit down. Jing Niang didn't refuse, it was not the first time she had received such preferential treatment, and besides, it was indeed a little windy today, and the hall was empty, so it was even more cold, only under this seat, because the Xie family was old, and the fire dragon had been laid out early, but it was a little warm.
"You just right, this kind of weather shouldn't come out, if you catch a cold again, damage your vitality, it's a lifetime thing, if you have anything to say, send someone in, or let your brother convey it, you don't need to go around." Xie Shi held her hand and said with a kind gaze.
"I haven't been in the palace for a long time, and I'm afraid of disturbing the peace of the saint, so just don't blame the concubines, just for the sake of the special grace of the day before yesterday, this trip is also going to go." Jing Niang responded with a smile.
"Nothing special." Xie Shi shook his head: "Your husband is thousands of miles away from Beijing, there is only one request, not for him, but also for Ye Mansion." ”
"It's not in accordance with the rules, and the concubine is a little scared." Jing Niang lowered her head, not shy, but remembered her husband who was "thousands of miles away from Beijing".
"You're just too well-behaved." Xie said in a joking tone.
The edict of a foreign woman, there really doesn't need to talk too much about the system, as long as there is a reasonable reason, what kind of raising children, keeping filial piety, martyrdom and the like, even if the king doesn't give anything, the outer court will rarely sarcastically admonish for such a trivial matter, unless it is too unfortunate, born in the era of Renzong of the Zhengren Ying Dynasty.
It's just that Xie still understands this girl, with her temperament, such a big thing happened, if you want to say that you may not have it, but she will never run to talk to herself about nothing, then there must be something, what will happen to a woman who is alone at home? When she thought about it, she already had a plan in her heart, and after this trip, she didn't know when or where she would see her again.
"Don't hide it from the saint, the concubine is here to resign." Sure enough, Xie grabbed her hand tightly: "Mother came to a letter a few days ago, saying that she was feeling a little unwell, and the concubine wanted to go back to Ninghai to have a look, in order to fulfill her filial piety." ”
In the face of Xie's gaze, Jing Niang raised her head without dodging, her beautiful eyes revealed a sense of honesty, Xie knew that she must have the so-called family letter on her, so it was okay, no one would say anything about the word "filial piety", but when she thought of such a long road, she was sincerely worried about the girl's body.
"When to go." Xie clapped her hand, and Jing Niang's heart fell to fruition.
"Tomorrow morning."
So fast? Xie Shi suddenly understood her feelings, the person in her heart went to the land of tigers and wolves, and it was just that she couldn't follow it, now she was on her own land, and she was able to endure it until now, but she still had to return to her illness before she recovered, and now she can stand and walk, where can she stay, no matter how prosperous the Jingshi is, how can she be able to rival her lover? She couldn't help but be a little envious of this young couple, who even passed the life and death hurdles together, what else was there to live in? What about the distance of thousands of miles, can it be compared to the separation of yin and yang?
"The road is not very smooth, don't rush to the night, don't stay in the wilderness, bring more people, when you get to the place, you should take care of the government, don't be afraid of trouble, you must know that 'going out is not better than at home, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful, ...... safe''
Without waiting for her to finish, Jing Niang left the couch at once, and in front of her seat, a big bow went down, Xie Shi did not say anything to stop her, and only after she had finished the salute and stood up again did she speak again.
"When you get to the place, remember to send a letter to the old man, just clip it in the good news, and you can see it earlier."
"Sage ......"
This is a hint that is no longer obvious, Xie Shi knew her plans early on, Jing Niang's words choked in her throat, and her heart was extremely uncomfortable, this time I was afraid that it would be goodbye, thinking of the past, the pimple in my heart had disappeared without a trace.
"Go, the old body is still waiting for a few years, and your husband and wife will return to Beijing together, presumably you have added Ding to his family at that time."
Xie thought that the foreign minister was only transferred once every three years, and the three-year period was not too long, but Jing Niang's heart was very clear that her husband was afraid that he would not come back, of course, she just thought about it in her heart, she gave Xie another salute, and then withdrew from Ciyun Palace.
In addition to the saint, Zhao Qinghui also has to say goodbye, knowing that she is leaving, the latter's reluctance is even more obvious, although the two do not communicate frequently, with Jing Niang's temperament, such a friendship is not shallow, if the Xie family still has some possibility of meeting, in a few years, most of the only girls in this palace have already married women.
So, after sending people out of the "Chengbi Water Hall", the palace people were surprised to find that the face of the carefree princess in the past was a little more sad, and even after her master came in, she let out a leisurely sigh.
"I don't know when you got right with her?" The woman took her hand and pulled her nose.
"Master, the poem says, 'Thousands of miles to the plane, Guan Shan Du Ruofei.' Has there ever been a woman like her, who is bent on finding a husband? Zhao Qinghui frowned, and opened a pair of bright eyes, which were full of yearning.
"Don't say thousands of miles, you can walk down the ten-mile royal street of Lin'an City, and if you don't ask them to help, I will promise you not to touch the piano for three days." The woman felt a little funny: "Are you good in the poem, there is also a sentence called 'The general dies in a hundred battles, and the strong man returns in ten years', if you can't wait for years, you can only find it yourself, and I don't know how many hardships I have to endure along the way, I can't imagine that she has such a heart at a young age, no wonder she can be his wife." ”
Speaking of which, the woman stopped laughing, she understood that in her heart, she was actually envious that the other party could travel anywhere, and only people who did not understand the suffering of the people would feel that such a life was full of poetry, but what is the situation outside now? The flames of war have been rekindled, and it is unknown when it will burn here, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will be a luxury to think about living such a comfortable day again.
Jing Niang's car did not go back to the house immediately after leaving the palace, but stopped at the Jiaomufang in the middle, which was the residence of the husband before he got married, and later gave it to Jin Ming, both of them had been to their house, but she had never entered here, and she naturally would not miss it today.
"Hey! Look at the dots, don't knock it over again. ”
"You little monkeys, what are you doing up in the trees, come down quickly."
......
What surprised Jing Niang was that when she first came to this courtyard, she didn't come forward to knock on the door, and there was a loud shout from inside, she had seen Jin Tu's family, when she thought of her body shape, and then with these words, she was the image of a market woman, but she didn't despise anything because of this, it was her sister-in-law, like Ye Ying and the lady, it was no different in her heart.
As a result, when the courtyard door was opened, Jing Niang was startled as soon as she took off her hat, there were many people in the courtyard, in addition to Jin Tu who was standing in the middle, there were also a few women doing work, and a group of girls kept chasing a few children, and the fastest one had climbed the big locust tree in the yard, hanging two feet and grimacing proudly.
"Oh, brother and sister, why are you here?" Jing Niang couldn't help but be amused by her straightforwardness, greeting guests like this, and unfamiliar people thought she was chasing customers.
"Sister-in-law, it's so lively here."
She didn't want her arrival to add embarrassment to others, so she didn't wait for Jin Tu to call someone out to greet her, so she found a stone bench and sat down, but she didn't even have time to put on a handkerchief.
"Alas, a bunch of monkey cubs are telling you to see the joke." This style really aroused Jin Tu's favor, she said a few words to the girls, and sat down on another stool, while picking up the cup on the table and pouring it violently, while also fanning the sleeves, how can there be a little bit of the demeanor of a four-grade Shuo person.
"That's Ying Niangzi, his man didn't come back in the north, the one on the tree is her child, this is Guan Niangzi, who came from the north with her husband, and the two little ones are her children. There are few people here on the left and right, and the place is spacious, so I simply asked them to stay, and every day is like this, and the noise is big. ”
Although she complained bitterly, Jing Niang could see that this rough sister-in-law actually liked this scene very much, her husband was not at home all the year round, and she didn't have a small body, plus her temperament, I am afraid that she is not social, so that life will be sad, it is better to be more lively like she said.
Among the several women, she has the highest grade, but she is the youngest, in her own home, where is there any accounting for these, the two women stepped forward to see the ceremony, and she stopped her, although she had not seen it, but she had already heard her husband mention it, but she didn't expect to meet here.
"Mr. Guan hasn't come back yet?" It is precisely when she sees that there are no adult men in the courtyard that Jing Niang will sit down here, otherwise she will have to avoid suspicion somewhat.
"Since he came to the capital, he has been wandering around all day long, and he has not let go of any Qinglou Washe, and it is common not to go home for a few days.
Guan Niangzi is a little older, she speaks with a northern accent, it sounds very easy to understand, Jing Niang nodded with a smile, she knows that this Mr. Guan is a master of opera, and the style is completely different from the local one, but she has been recuperating before and has no chance to appreciate it, and now she is almost better, but she has no time.
Jing Niang is a quiet and not disinclined character, since marrying Liu Yu, the previous living habits and personality have changed unconsciously, like this kind of yard, she was killed before she got married, and she couldn't set foot on it, and she couldn't see the mess of a yard, chickens and dogs jumping, now not only can you come, but also watch the children frolic with appreciative eyes, and when you feel interesting, you can also smile like them.
"Big brother, can you send a letter from home recently?" Jin Tu didn't expect her to ask this, and was stunned for a moment.
"I won't tell you anything, I can't read, and I don't often write any letters, but a few days ago, I sent someone to spread the news, saying that the eldest brother has arrived in Guangxi, everything is fine, and I blame me, I was troubled by these monkeys, and I didn't expect to go to your door to report a letter."
"It's okay, I should have come to the door, I was closed at home every day for the past few days, I didn't think about this, I didn't worry about him all the way." Jing Niang waved her hand indifferently, the microphone was faster than a message, and she already knew it on the day Liu Yu arrived.
"I came to the door today for one thing, I wonder if my sister-in-law has ever thought about looking for my eldest brother?"
Of course Jing Niang will not go alone, these families in Beijing, at least Jin Ming's family are going to go together, plus Yinghong, who lives in her home, now look at it, I'm afraid that there will be a few more households, these things, Liu Yu explained it clearly when she left, she was not sure whether people were willing to go with her.
"I said it, but I saw that you have been sick, so I didn't have the embarrassment to mention it, what's the matter, are you going to go on the road?" Jin Tushi looked at her complexion, her face was still a little pale, and she didn't know if it was due to the change in weather.
"Well, I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, sister-in-law isn't as good as me, let's take care of it."
Jin Tu was a little dazed, she subconsciously looked back at the movement in the yard, this life has only been long ago, and she is leaving again, and she is really a little reluctant in her heart.
"We said in charge, if you want to be a lady, you might as well go with you, it's your own land over there, and it's more convenient to do anything."
The two women who were doing needlework were stunned for a moment, and what they didn't expect was that this lady, who seemed to be full of wealth, actually invited them, and it was obvious that it was not a polite remark, because it was not necessary at all.
"I don't know if I want to move or not, I have to reply at night." Guan Niangzi is quite moved, although it is prosperous here, but the cost is also large, and there is no one to rely on, it is better to follow that Liu Gongzi, at least it seems that people are really capable people.
"If Mr. Guan is unwilling, the lady might as well tell him that my official has something to give, but if he wants to go, this thing will definitely make him worthwhile." Jing Niang pursed her lips and added with a smile, looking similar to her husband when he fooled others.
