Chapter 206: Qunfang
There is also a soft couch in the room, although it looks quite spacious, but it is generally used for maids to be on night duty, where can Ren Yaoqi let Xiao Jinglin sleep? Hurriedly said: "Let's live together." ”
Xiao Jinglin naturally wouldn't let Ren Yaochi sleep on the couch, so Ren Yaoqi was also very realistic. Xiao Jinglin is not a hypocritical person, so the matter is decided.
Apple was carefully inspecting the bed with Hongying's maids, and the princess's eldest maid, Su Jin, came over and said that the princess had asked the county lord to explain something in the past.
After Xiao Jinglin went to see the princess, Ren Yaoqi thought about it and called Mulberry over, asking her to see if the Ren family's people had come and where they were arranged, and asked her to tell the eldest lady that she had settled on the county lord's side. She had only brought apples and mulberries to the carriage before, and the rest of the maids and maids had to get into the other carriage, so she could only let the eldest lady arrange those people at this time.
After returning from a trip, Sang Yu told Mrs. Ren Yao that she had brought a few young ladies of the Ren family over and was arranged in the guest room outside, a little far away from here. Mrs. Ren also came to Yunyang City, but she didn't come to the Hot Spring Villa, but lived in the courtyard of Yunyang City. The eldest lady also said that let Ren Yaoqi act carefully here, and if there was any need, she would send someone over to inform her.
Soon after Mulberry returned, Xiao Jinglin also returned. I couldn't see anything on my face, but Ren Yaoqi felt that Xiao Jinglin was probably taught a lesson by the princess because of the conflict with Xiao Wei before. Xiao Jinglin didn't say, and Ren Yaoqi didn't ask.
There are a lot of people who come to the golden banquet, Yanzhou because of the geographical advantage to participate in the daughters of the conditions are less relaxed, and the invitations from other state capitals are not as many as those issued by Yanzhou, so they are all really famous daughters, and everyone is beautiful. Rao is like this, and there are also one or two hundred or so ladies.
There are also a lot of famous sons, but they will not live in the hot spring villa of Yanbei Wangfu. Fortunately, there are many Zhuangzi near Sun Moon Spring, and most of them are under the names of these nobles, and they are also full these days. Several sons of the Ren family are said to have also come. However, the Ren family did not have a Zhuangzi near here, so they borrowed the Qiu family's Zhuangzi.
The Yun family was already very familiar with arranging this kind of big banquet, so they had already arranged all the people from each family before noon.
Because the daughter's banquet is a blind date banquet in disguise, on the first day of the banquet, those who have a sense of marriage have a sense of socializing and probing each other, and the daughters of each family come out to mix their faces. On the second and third days, the ladies competed for beauty and won a good reputation. It is said that over the years, the daughters who can be in the limelight at the gold banquet can find their good in-laws.
One after another, people came to see the princess, and the princess picked some important people to see her. Xiao Jinglin was impatient to go back and forth with those ladies and ladies, and Ren Yaochi hid under a Bodhi tree in the side courtyard to read, and the princess sent someone to come over to see her a few times and didn't care about her, and let her go.
The two of them also had lunch in the side courtyard. The princess brought the king's cook. However, Xiao Jinglin disliked the princess's cook, and the taste of cooking was too light, and she didn't know when Lu Dao ordered someone to go out. In addition to the specialties of several large restaurants in Yunyang City, there are also snacks such as duck blood soup, lotus root flour balls, pot stickers and so on.
The variety of types makes Ren Yaoqi simply breathtaking.
Xiao Jinglin was very complacent when she saw Ren Yaoqi's stunned appearance, but her face was flat: "You come to me as a guest, I always have to think of something to make you eat and drink spicy food." The cook my mother is using now cooks, in my master's words. It's just that after eating it, a bird can fade out of its mouth. ”
Ren Yaoqi couldn't cry or laugh, but he still whispered: "County Lord, don't let people hear this." Let the princess know that not only Xiao Jinglin will suffer, but her master will also be unlucky.
Xiao Jinglin blinked. With a little cunning: "Don't worry, you can see that I have been caught?" ”
Xiao Jinglin grew up in the border pass since she was a child, surrounded by some rough-skinned men, and heard a lot of laughter and scolding between them. It's very different from ordinary ladies. So before, in order to teach Xiao Wei a lesson, she even dared to make jokes about her father and grandmother. It's just that Xiao Jinglin also knows very well that as the county lord of Yanbei Palace, what can and can't be done, she plays the role of county lord quite well. At least it didn't get into any big trouble.
After the two quietly finished a hearty lunch, they still sat on the bamboo couch under the linden tree to drink tea and read a book, even if no one spoke, they didn't feel bored, they only felt quiet and comfortable.
Ren Yaoqi originally thought that it was not bad to live a clean day like this, but unfortunately the sky did not follow people's wishes, Yun Qiuchen came over in the afternoon, and in addition to Yun Qiuping and Yun Qiufang, there was also Ren Yaoyin.
"I'll just say why I didn't see the two of you show up, it turned out that I was hiding here." Yun Qiuchen looked at them and said with a smile.
Xiao Jinglin waved her hand to let the few people who saluted her get up, and she didn't defend herself when she heard it, but just smiled slightly: "My cousin is here to see my mother?" ”
Putting aside the family affairs between the Yun family and the Yanbei Palace, the princess has always been very fond of Yun Qiuchen's niece, and Yun Qiuchen will go to the palace from time to time to ask for peace. The last time I went to the Yun family, Ren Yaoqi heard Xiao Jinglin call Mrs. Yun's uncle and grandmother, but it was actually called from her grandmother, Mrs. Yun's generation.
Ren Yaoqi also learned later that although Princess Yanbei was the daughter of Mrs. Yun's brother, she grew up with Mrs. Yun since she was a child. Mrs. Yun raised her with her daughter and raised her together. Before getting married, the princess and Mrs. Yun were like mother and daughter.
Yun Qiuchen said with a smile: "We are here to greet the princess, Yaoyin said that she didn't see her fifth sister after she came, so I asked her to come with her." The princess told us to come and tell you to go out together, and don't get bored here. County Lord, do you want to go with us to the Sunshine Spring? There are a lot of ladies over there. ”
Yun Qiufang also said: "Yes, county lord, come with us?" You haven't spent much time in Yunyang City, and many people don't recognize you yet. ”
Xiao Jinglin actually didn't want to go out, and she disliked these people for being noisy and troublesome. However, Yun Qiuchen said that the princess asked them to come and call her, and she couldn't refuse.
After thinking about it, he looked at Ren Yaoqi: "Do you want to go for a walk?" There was helplessness in his eyes.
Ren Yaochi nodded: "It's okay to take a walk." ”
The Yun family sisters were all happy when they heard this, presumably when they came, the princess explained to them that they would find a way to take Xiao Jinglin out of the city.
The group left Lanyue Pavilion, and the people who only lived in the palace in the main courtyard were quite clean, but as soon as they left the main courtyard, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin felt the liveliness of the garden.
The ladies in pairs or groups make the air in the villa filled with a lingering fragrance, and some soft whispers can be faintly heard in the ears, but they are not too noisy and chaotic.
Ren Yaoyin said to Ren Yaoqi: "The third sister seems to have also come out, and now they should be on the side of Riyao Spring." ”
Ren Yaoqi looked around and heard that most of the people should have gathered in the southeast area, presumably the legendary Sunyao Spring was nearby.
Sure enough, Yun Qiuchen took them to the southeast next.
I also met some ladies along the way, and some of them knew Yun Qiuchen and came forward to say hello. But Xiao Jinglin was silent all the way, and no one else had ever seen her, so no one came to disturb her. Yun Qiuchen should know Xiao Jinglin's temperament, so he didn't have anything to introduce her.
The closer you get to the sunset, the more people get there. Sunrise Spring is a large warm water spring, surrounded by a lot of exotic flowers and plants, and it is said that it is undefeated in all seasons. The spring is surrounded by a red lacquered wood fence, and you can see the steaming water vapor from a distance, but although it is already summer, it does not make people feel stuffy here, only makes people feel that the warm breeze is blowing on the face, very gentle and soft, very strange.
There are a lot of stone tables and chairs outside the fence, and the ladies are sitting or standing in various places, each with its own circle. Xiao Jinglin's group of people still attracted the attention of many people when they came over, although the eyes of these ladies were quite subtle. The eyes on Xiao Jinglin also increased, although not many people had seen Lord Xiao, but her excellent appearance and the kind of aura that she unconsciously brought when she was in the crowd made some discerning people guess a few points.
Not far away, a beautiful girl in a pink dress was leaning on the fence and talking to several girls of the same age, and her crisp and tactful voice like a silver bell attracted the attention of many people. When he saw this, he looked at him for a moment, and then immediately greeted him, and said in surprise: "Sister Qiuchen, you are here, we are all waiting for you, if you don't come again, I will go to find you." ”
Yun Qiuchen smiled when he saw her: "I don't know what the Guo family's sister is looking for me?" ”
Miss Guo pouted and said coquettishly, "Didn't Sister Qiu Chen say that she was going to take us around?" He also said that he would take us to see the peacocks raised here by the princess. Sister Qiu Chen, did she forget? This is not possible! The sister of the Jiang family also heard it, you can't be fooled. Sister Jiang, come here! ”
Miss Guo turned around and beckoned back, among the few people who stood with her before, a girl in a goose yellow dress hesitated, walked out slowly, nodded and smiled towards this side, and then was pulled over by Miss Guo.
Yun Qiuchen smiled and introduced to Xiao Jinglin: "This is the eldest lady of the Guo family in Ulzhou, and this one is the eighth lady of the Jiang family in Shunzhou. They had gone to greet my grandmother, who liked them so much that she told me to show them around the cottage. ”
Miss Guo couldn't help but be a little surprised to see that Yun Qiuchen had deliberately introduced them to the girl beside her, but did not immediately reveal the identity of the girl.
According to the rules, when introducing strangers to each other, the party with a low status is introduced to the party with a high status, and then the party with a high status is introduced to the party with a low status. (To be continued......)
