Just a few days later, Yulan copied the scriptures every day, read books, and was occasionally forced by Xiaoyu Xiaoyue to do needlework for a while, Yuqing still came to see her every three or five days, but she didn't dare to delay too much, and Yulan didn't feel so bored.

The third young master, Chengzong, also knew Yulan's situation very well, and immediately sent Yun'er over to visit, and Yulan asked Yun'er to bring him a message: "I'm fine, I haven't suffered any grievances, you don't need to worry." This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you, and you should not miss it. Study hard, but don't burn your body, you must know that you can't reach it quickly. You know things very well, and I just give you a word of advice. ”

The inner house can't hide secrets, as long as the second young master and the third young master can be admitted to Xiucai, they can be written into the name of the eldest wife, and the matter of becoming the concubine of the long house in law has already spread throughout the whole mansion. The third young master studied harder and harder.

The second young master was grounded by the eldest master in the outer courtyard Wenxuan Pavilion, Aunt Liu made it clear that the eldest master personally went out of the weeping flower gate, visited Wenxuan Pavilion, and talked secretly with the second young master for two hours.

The eldest lord was very pleased. The eldest lady didn't move anymore, as if everything was in shape.

After a few more days, Yulan found that Wang's mother looked suspicious and suspicious, so she asked Xiaoyu to go out to investigate. Xiaoyu came back in the afternoon, and Yulan retreated from the maids, leaving only one Xiaoyue in the house.

Xiaoyu hadn't spoken yet, just a happy expression, Xiaoyue was anxious: "What did you hear?" Tell the girl! ”

Xiaoyu said: "Mother Wang is really anxious this time. Her son lost sixty taels of silver in the casino, and the scoundrel beat him so that he could not get off the kang for several days, and threatened to cut off one of his legs if he did not get the money within twenty days. ”

Yulan and Xiaoyue were relieved when they heard this. Mother Wang's mother and son don't have any good things, Mother Wang's mother relied on the strength of the eldest wife to accompany Mother Li, bullying the master and scolding the slave and maid, not to mention it, and deducting the silver from the master's slave and maid. Her son is not doing his job, he only knows how to eat, drink and gamble all day long, and even the family fortune will be defeated sooner or later. Such scum does not deserve a little sympathy.

Xiaoyu said: "Mother Wang is borrowing money from everywhere, but she is like this, who dares to lend her money." Now that she can't afford the silver, and she can't hold the girl, she thinks that our reward here is too little. Today, she begged to Mother Li, and wanted to ask Mother Li to exchange her for a reward for the many masters. was scolded by Li's mother! ”

Yulan thought to herself that Mother Wang was really confused, she was the eldest lady Lu Jingzhai eyeliner, so naturally she would not let her go elsewhere.

Yulan pondered for a moment and asked, "The silver ingot box, the jewelry box, and the cage key are all in your hands, right?" ”

The two big girls nodded for a while.

Yulan said: "If Mother Wang asks you to get the key, you will say that all the keys are in my hands, and let her come to me directly." ”

Xiaoyue was surprised: "This old woman won't be so faceless, right?" ”

Yulan said: "If people are cornered, what can't they do?" ”

Sure enough, as soon as she had dinner that day, Wang's mother went into the inverted room to find Xiaoyu and Xiaoyue, and after touching the nail, she went into the hall to find Yulan, and borrowed twenty taels of silver as soon as she opened her mouth.

Yulan sneered in her heart, but her face was gentle and gentle: "Mom has served me hard, it's rare to open my mouth, I shouldn't help you with this because of reason......"

Mother Wang was overjoyed: "It's still the seventh girl who is kind and sympathetic to our subordinates......"

Yulan waved her hand to interrupt her: "Mother Wang listened to me." It's a coincidence that you opened your mouth at the same time. A few days ago, I really had a few taels of silver in my hand, but yesterday the ninth sister fell in love with a big red satin, and she didn't have enough silver on hand, so she was missing dozens of taels. You know, I have a good relationship with my ninth sister, so I lent her the silver. But you don't have to worry, the ninth sister said, after a few months, when the money is ready, I will pay it back as soon as possible, if you are not in a hurry, just wait a few months. ”

Wang's mother was speechless, and after a few more idle words, she went down in dismay.

Yulan looked at her embarrassed appearance and felt a pain in her heart: "Let me give you the silver to float, I haven't reached that level of white lotus yet!" ”

Yulan told Xiaoyue Xiaoyu to take a good look at the valuable things, so she stayed aside and watched the changes.

The festival is here in the blink of an eye. The day before, the palace of Yanqing County sent someone to send an invitation, inviting the old lady, the three wives and all the girls to go to the apricot forest in Nanshan on the outskirts of Beijing to watch the apricot blossoms. The princess of Yanqing put the apricot grove in wine, and the noblewomen and ladies in the capital were assembled.

The relationship between the Yanqing Royal Mansion and the Yang Mansion is extraordinary. Princess Yanqing is the daughter of Mrs. Yang, Yulan's aunt.

Since the Taizong Dynasty of Great Chu, after several purges, the children of the clan have withered. More than ten princes in the first vein of Taizu died cleanly, and now only one seedling is left in the Jin King Ye Yichen, and the first vein of the King of Qin is also half a catty and eight taels, leaving only one seedling in the thousands of acres of land. Although Taizong's branch was able to inherit the throne, the eldest son died early, and the second son suffered from mental illness, so the third son inherited the throne, which is the current orthodox emperor.

The princess of Yanqing County was humble and had no qualifications to raise the prince, so she raised the name of the virtuous concubine of Jingren Palace since she was a child. Concubine Xian is the biological mother of the emperor today. In other words, the king of Yanqing County grew up under the same roof as the current emperor, and his feelings are naturally extraordinary.

Therefore, as soon as the orthodox emperor ascended the throne, he issued a decree to crown him as the king of Yanqing County. The king of Yanqing has a noble status, but he is deeply familiar with Tao obscurity, immersed in calligraphy all day long, beyond the court, but favored by the emperor.

"It must be lively this time!" Inside the green quiet hall, the three sisters Yulan, Yufei, and Yuqing sat around. Yuqing sat on a sandalwood chair, her little face glowing with excitement. "There are dozens of acres of apricot blossoms in the apricot forest, if they are all blooming, maybe how beautiful it is! Mrs. said that the third aunt had posted to all the ladies and ladies in the capital, and there were several princesses and princesses! Enjoy flowers, eat wine, and compose poems...... "The third aunt is the princess of Yanqing."

Yufei coughed and interrupted the nine girls' words, and hurriedly gave Yuqing a look, the sisters can all go out to play for a day tomorrow, only Yulan was confined to the house by his father, Yuqing is now saying this, isn't it adding to Yulan's blockage?

Quietly went to look at Yulan's expression, but fortunately there was no change. Yulan frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly: "Didn't you say that Yanqing Mansion has always been very low-key?" Why did the third aunt make such a big move this time? ”

Yufei explained: "Our prince has three sons and four daughters, and the eldest cousin and second cousin are all sons-in-law. The eldest cousin saw that he was about to be made the prince of the county at an age, and the third aunt had already married the daughter of Gao Gu, the left deputy envoy of the Imperial Palace, for him. The second cousin, and a side concubine, and the third cousin, are not young......"

Yulan heard the song and knew the elegance, so she smiled: "It turns out that the third aunt wants to choose a daughter-in-law for the two cousins?" ”

Yufei said: "Isn't it! The third cousin is fine, but the second cousin is ...... I really don't know which girl can have such a blessing and marry her second cousin! For a moment, his face was full of longing.

Among the third-generation children of the royal family, Ye Minchun, the second son of the king of Yanqing County, is very intelligent, both civil and military, and even Yulan has heard of the big name. The prince once said: "Minchun is extremely smart, talented and virtuous, and my brothers are not as good as me." Not only does the prince like him, but the emperor also loves him very much, and at a young age, he let him work as an errand in various ministries and yamen. Although he is young, he is capable and talented, and is often used as a model by the Zhong Ding family to supervise and educate the children of the clan.

The girls in the boudoir also often talked about him, because he was "beautiful, good at talking and smiling", gentle and graceful. In short, this cousin is actually a powerful, rich, good-looking, talented and virtuous, or else, countless boudoir girls tremble when they hear it!

Shouldn't this kind of person appear in the costume soap opera at 8 o'clock in the evening? Yulan felt that the world was amazing!

It is said that this cousin's original owner should have seen it, but Yulan can't remember what he looks like even if he wants to break his head? I don't know how it compares to the demon of Jin King Ye Yichen? I heard that there is also a famous and beautiful man in the clan - just the opposite of the young and elegant Ye Minchun, this one is wandering and absurd, and he is a typical playboy, that is, Ye Fengqi, the king of Qin.

Yulan couldn't help but be a little strange, how can she look good-looking and have the surname Ye?

Yulan smiled ambiguously: "Has the fourth sister seen the second cousin?" Is he really good-looking? ”

"It's so beautiful!" Yufei replied casually.

"Then you will marry him and be my second cousin-in-law, kiss and kiss ......"

"You little hoof, see if I don't tear your mouth." Yu Fei's face turned red, so he went to twist Yulan's face, laughed once, and everyone dispersed.

The next day was the first day of the Shangsi Festival, and the Yang Mansion dispatched more than a dozen carriages, and the whole family and their dependents mobilized and drove to Nanshan on the outskirts of Beijing. The women in the house are all showing off their flowers and branches, and they are happy.

Compared with the two, the atmosphere of Green Jingzhai is very low. Had lunch and took a nap. Yulan was reading listlessly on the crooked couch, and after reading for a while, sleepiness hit again, and he actually fell asleep again.

Xiaoyue quietly pulled out the brick-thick "Food and Goods Journal" from Yulan's small hand, and quietly covered the quilt for her, signaling Xiaoyu with her eyes, and the two slowly exited the house.

The sun was just right outside, and the two big girls stood outside the curtain to bask in the sun, and while basking in the sun, they lowered their voices and whispered. Xiaoyue said longingly: "It's good that our girls can go together, with the talent of the girl, she will definitely be able to shine at the poetry meeting." ”

Xiaoyu also sighed: "Who said it wasn't, the girl has been detained for so long, and she has long been suffocated." ”

The two of them whispered for a while, and suddenly heard a crisp voice: "What did the two sisters say, so lively?" The two looked up and saw that it was the big girl next to the old lady.

The two glanced at each other, and at the same time remembered that they were sleeping soundly in the room. A girl from a high-ranking family, there are certain norms for walking, sitting and lying, this is a little bit, and she is still sleeping, this is not everyone's beautiful style, if it reaches the ears of the old lady......

Xiaoyue immediately raised her voice: "Sister Xinghuang, why are you here?" Didn't you go to the apricot grove with the old lady to enjoy the flowers? Xiaoyu turned around and entered the room.

"The old lady likes to be quiet and doesn't like to move, and she is lazy, so she sent someone to inform the third aunt and wife yesterday, and only taught the three ladies to take the girls away." Xinghuang glanced at Xiaoyu thoughtfully, pretending not to know anything, and greeted Xiaoyue empathetically.

After saying a few words, Yulan came out, her body was neat and tidy, and she had an elegant smile on her face: "Why is Sister Xinghuang here?" ”

Xinghuang gave a salute: "Seventh girl, the old lady invites you to come over." ”

Yulan brought Xiaoyue this time, and with the apricot yellow, he came out of the green Jingzhai. "Today is the Shangsi Festival, why didn't my grandmother go out to evacuate."

Xinghuang repeated what she had just said to Xiaoyue.

Yulan asked tentatively, "Is there anything wrong with my grandmother calling me over?" ”

Xinghuang replied: "The old lady is bored and wants to call the girl to tell her about the ancient records and read a book." ”

The author has something to say:
