Chapter 471: Goodbye
Hongying's words made Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin stunned.
The Meng family gave a dowry today, so tomorrow will be the day when Yun Wenfang and the eldest lady of the Meng family get married?
Jerusag seemed to be very interested in these customs of the Han Chinese, and he stood by the window and looked down, and did not listen to the books anymore.
The Meng family is also a number one family in the whole Yanbei, and the marriage daughter is also very grand, although there is no way to marry Ren Yao, but it is also a big deal, which can be heard from the lively sound from the window, many guests who were originally drinking tea and listening to books in the teahouse also flocked to the street to watch the excitement.
Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi sat there and didn't move, they were not people who liked to be lively.
Until the dowry procession passed, the usual order gradually returned to outside the street, and the lively tea guests came back, but they were also talking about the marriage between the Yun family and the Meng family.
Jerusag also returned, still saying in her stiff-sounding Chinese: "You Han women are really getting married. This seems to be a bit of an exclamation.
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin didn't continue the topic with her, and they just smiled when they heard the words.
The storyteller in the teahouse finally stopped talking about the deeds of the old Yanbei King, and instead talked about a story of a heavenly marriage that was circulated among the people.
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin had nothing to do today, so they also accompanied the newcomer princess of Liao to kill time. When it was almost noon, Xiao Jinglin ordered someone to go to a nearby restaurant to bring some food, and she didn't bother to go from the teahouse to the restaurant again.
It's a very leisurely morning and noon. Out of the way, seeing the Meng family give the dowry, nothing special happened. Originally, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin still suspected that Yelu Sag wanted to do something while he was going out, but Yelu Sag had always stayed obediently in the teahouse. There is no change in the slightest.
After lunch, the three of them came out of the teahouse. Yelu Sag was also very interested in the various shops on the street, but she saw that Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin had no intention of getting off the bus, and she did not propose to get off the carriage to visit the shops. When passing by an iron shop, Xiao Jinglin asked the coachman to stop.
"I recast a dagger here before, and since I'm passing by here, I'll go down and see how the fight goes." Xiao Jinglin is very keen on collecting all kinds of weapons, and she also likes to draw her own weapon drawings for people to build.
Jerusag's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Can I go and see?" ”
Xiao Jinglin glanced at her, thought about it and nodded, then turned to Ren Yaoqi and said, "Why don't you wait for us in the Duobao Pavilion not far ahead?" You're not interested in weapons. It's stuffy inside, and I'll be out for you soon. Xiao Jinglin was worried that the weapons shop was full of reckless men, especially the guys who struck iron inside might be shirtless, and she was afraid that she would scare Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaochi nodded and said with a smile: "It's good, then I'll go to Duobao Pavilion and wait for you." ”
Duobao Pavilion is the largest jewelry shop in Yunyang City, which receives more delicate customers on weekdays and is very famous. Some of the ladies of big families go out, and it's not easy to wander around other stores. Duobao Pavilion can be visited.
Xiao Jinglin and Yelu Sag got out of the carriage, and Ren Yaoqi let the carriage go a few more steps and went to Duobao Pavilion, which was not far from the blacksmith shop.
They had just finished eating, and there was no business in the Duobao Pavilion at this time. There were only three or two female customers looking at the jewelry in the store outside.
Ren Yaoqi's identity is different now, as soon as she got out of the carriage, the female shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion personally went out to greet her, and respectfully welcomed her to the store. There is a tea room for guests to rest. Ren Yaoqi doesn't need to go to the store outside to choose what she wants to buy, she just needs to say what she wants. The shopkeeper will naturally let people hold things into the tea room inside, and let them be selected by Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi came here just to find a place to sit. I didn't want to buy anything, but since I had already come, it was impossible to really go out empty-handed, so I asked the shopkeeper to take some of the beads that have been fashionable recently. Not long ago, when Ren Yaohua's daughter was full moon, Ren Yaochi heard that Lei Paner's birthday was approaching, although she had prepared a few valuable gifts, but thinking that Pan'er looked very cute when she wore beaded flowers, Ren Yaochi planned to give her two more pairs of good-looking beaded flowers.
The shopkeeper soon let people hold five or six trays up, each tray was placed on ten pairs of beads, Ren Yaoqi took a look, and found that the beads used to save beads were very good, and the style was also extremely novel, so he was a little interested, thinking about picking a few more pairs to go back.
She was seriously picking up the bead flowers, but she heard someone talking outside, it seemed that a guest had come. The shopkeeper was accompanying Ren Yao to pick up bead flowers, so he whispered to the guy that there were distinguished guests today, and he would not accept other guests for the time being.
I didn't want the guy to go out for a while and come back, so he whispered a few words to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper glanced at Ren Yaoqi with some hesitation when he heard this.
Seeing this, Ren Yaochi smiled: "What's the matter?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Young lady, we are naturally not good at receiving foreign guests when you come, but it is the second and third ladies of the Yun family who come outside, they say they recognize you, you see ......"
Ren Yaoqi secretly raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he smiled and bowed: "It turned out to be Miss Yun, let them in." I'm just here to sit down and pick up some gadgets, and your business can do the same, and you don't have to worry about me. ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly answered, and then ordered the guy.
After a while, the curtain in the tea room was lifted, and Yun Qiuping and Yun Qiufang came in.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi, Yun Qiuping bowed her head and saluted dutifully, still looking like a wooden one. Yun Qiufang also saluted, but said with a smile: "It turned out that the young lady was here, I said who has such a big face that can make Duobao Pavilion not even do business." ”
No matter what the words were, coming out of Yun Qiufang's mouth, I don't know how it sounded awkward.
Ren Yaoqi naturally didn't bother with a little girl, nodded at them, and smiled: "I didn't expect to meet two, what a coincidence." Are you here to pick out jewelry? ”
Yun Qiuping smiled shyly, and Yun Qiufang pouted: "Yes, I heard that Duobao Pavilion produced a batch of new goods in excellent condition yesterday, and I will accompany the second sister to pick out a few dowries." ”
In fact, a big family like the Yun family, if you want to marry a daughter, there are more good things at the bottom of the box, and you don't need to go to the market to buy any dowry. I'm afraid these two Miss Yun are looking for an excuse to come out to play, right? And also choose the day when the Meng family gave the dowry?
Although he thought so in his heart, Ren Yaoqi naturally wouldn't break it, but just smiled and asked the shopkeeper to take some good jewelry and let the two Miss Yun pick it out.
The good things of Duobao Pavilion are generally not placed in the store outside, and the shopkeeper immediately responds to pick them up.
Ren Yaoqi and the two sisters of the Yun family spoke without a word, but Yun Qiuping was still silent, only answering a question, and never took the initiative to speak. What is rare is that Yun Qiufang has fewer words today, and there are even some absent-minded people who are not looking out.
Ren Yaoqi quickly paid attention, and couldn't help frowning in his heart.
At this moment, the curtain of the tea room was lifted, and someone walked in. It's just that Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he saw the appearance of the person who came.
"Have you chosen?" A familiar male voice sounded, and the man walked into the tea room, his eyes did not stop in front of Ren Yaoqi, and his handsome face was completely devoid of the cynicism that he used to hang on his face, looking cold and a little stiff.
Yun Qiuping lowered her head and whispered, "It's still ...... Not yet, second brother. ”
It turned out to be Yun Wenfang, the second young master of the Yun family who had not appeared in front of anyone for a long time.
Yun Qiufang, who has always been flamboyant, also seemed to have some scruples about Yun Wenfang, and after glancing at him, he hurriedly said, "It'll be fine soon, second brother, you can also sit down and have a cup of tea." ”
Yun Wen stood in place for a while, and then sat diagonally opposite Ren Yaoqi without saying a word, and finally looked at it.
Yun Wenfang's face is not very good, originally after several years of exercise, his complexion is a little dark compared with the average son, and he is very healthy. I haven't seen it for a long time, although Yun Wenfang has not come back in vain, but his lips are a little sickly pale and a little dry, as if he is seriously ill.
When Yun Wenfang looked over, Ren Yaoqi also glanced at him, she didn't know how to describe Yun Wenfang's eyes at this moment. It seems that there is no focal length, but it seems to have a bitter hatred and a strong unwillingness, but I don't know who his hatred is to, and why is it unwilling. When Ren Yaoqi looked carefully, he only saw a thick mist, hazy, like a flower in the mirror.
For a while, no one spoke, and the scene was a little silent.
Ren Yaoqi thought, why hasn't Xiao Jinglin come yet? Or find an excuse to go first.
It's just that before Ren Yaoqi could speak, Yun Wenfang spoke, or said to her: "Young Mrs. Xiao has something to go first?" When he said this, Yun Wenfang even smiled.
Ren Yaochi glanced at him and sighed in his heart, but said, "I made an appointment here with the county lord and the princess of Liao, thinking about when they will come." ”
"Jerusag?" Yun Wenfang heard this, but called out the name of the princess of Liao.
Ren Yaochi nodded.
"Stay away from her." Yun Wenfang was cold when he said this, still in a commanding tone, but he frowned just after speaking, pursed his lips and was silent for a moment before he stiffened his face a little reluctantly, "The old Liao King gave birth to sixteen daughters, and eight survived, only she has the military power in her hands, and her uncle is the current king of the Southern Courtyard." ”
Ren Yaoqi looked around, although there were only a few of them here, it was not a place to talk after all.
As if he understood her concerns, Yun Wenfang tugged at the corners of his mouth: "What if the wall has ears, I'm not afraid of offending the Liao people." ”
It's still as arrogant as ever!.
