Chapter 74: Fate

Wei Ran's face flushed slightly, and he didn't answer. Yan Ran leaned in front of the window, and saw that what she was looking at was a place where men were standing, although there was a distance away, but some men couldn't help but look curiously at this place where women were obviously concentrated.

These are all young people, Yanran couldn't help but purse her lips and smile: "Well, let me guess, is it looking for our brother-in-law?" Weiran's face turned red immediately, and he covered his face with his hands: "My sister is making fun of me, I ignore you!" Since she guessed correctly, Yan Ran also laughed, and when she looked around, she saw a small couple standing under the willow tree not far away, a village woman, naturally she would not bring any servants, the little couple stood there, and the man stretched out his arm to protect his wife, so that she would not be squeezed out.

It turned out that this heart was not really unmoved, and Yanran felt a trace of sadness in her heart, not a trace, but a little thick and a little heavy. Yanran gritted her teeth, not letting the sadness come up, but still had a shallow smile on her face. Wei Ran looked at it for a long time, and then went to ask the maid, but he didn't know what the maid said, and Wei Ran's face turned red. Yan Ran followed her eyes and saw that where the man was standing, there was a sixteen or seventeen boy wearing an indigo robe and a red silk ribbon, knowing that this was most likely to be, and wanted to make fun of Weiran a few words, but he still didn't say anything, just looked outside again.

Dragon boats are seen every year, and many people go out not to see dragon boats, but to see women, and naturally there are people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to do bad things. There were already a few people around the place where the young couple was standing, and their eyes were a little ill-intentioned. When the man saw this, he pulled his wife to the other side, and began to talk with them, and when they saw that they were not going out alone, but with relatives and friends, they dispersed.

Yanran looked at it squarely, and saw that the woman didn't know anything, but she was talking excitedly to her husband there, who was good at the race, and who was bad. Yan Ran didn't know why, there was a fog in her eyes, but she was afraid of being discovered, so she lowered her head and didn't look.

Wei Ran was immersed in excitement, and didn't pay attention to Yan Ran's changes, Wei Ran's face was already flying crimson, and he thought that he was very satisfied with the man. Yan Ran calmed down, then looked up, saw Wei Ran's face crimson, and smiled a little enviously. I hope that all the daughters of the Zheng family will go well.

The dragon boat race is at its most intense, the shore is thundering, and the boats in the river are competing for the current. Yan Ran looked out of the window again, and where the group of young men were standing, there was suddenly a familiar figure. Yan Ran thought it was wrong first, but after a closer look, it was indeed right, it was Rong Qi, how could he appear here? Yan Ran felt strange in her heart. When Uncle Zheng came back that day, he naturally told his daughter everything as it was, and Yan Ran realized that Rong Qi had always liked herself. It's really strange that he is not particularly good, why does he like himself?

However, whether he likes it or not, he and him are inseparable after all. Otherwise, he would have really responded to Cheng Ruiru's sentence and snatched his friend's wife. And this thing, Rong Qi, who claims to be a gentleman, will never do it. Yan Ran pressed the thoughts in her heart, and continued to look out, Rong Qi's figure had disappeared, perhaps, it was just a somewhat similar person. Yanran thought so and looked at it like this.

Rong Qi took a long breath and squeezed out of the crowd, but it was on the order of his uncle, he went to the countryside to see if there were some goods that could be collected, but he forgot that today was the Dragon Boat Festival, and he was warmly invited to watch the dragon boat race, but he didn't expect that there were so many people, and he didn't see anything, but squeezed out a stinky sweat. He didn't even see the man who brought him. Rong Qi shook his head, and when he was about to look for it again, he looked up and saw that there were several carriages parked in the high place where the female dependents were concentrated, as if there were familiar figures.

Rong Qi raised his eyes and looked, yes, it was indeed Aunt Zheng, could it be that the Zheng family's Zhuangzi was also around here? Although Uncle Zheng said that he would be angry with Rong Qi and not let Rong Qi continue to associate with the Zheng family, but being able to see the people of the Zheng family at this moment does it mean that God treats him well?

Rong Qi looked at the carriage of the Zheng family blankly, since Aunt Zheng is here, what about Yanran? Where is she? She should be nearby, Rong Qi raised his eyes, but he didn't see the familiar figure. Then Rong Qi laughed self-deprecatingly, it's really stupid, why did you forget, Yanran is an unmarried woman, this girl who hasn't been out of the cabinet, how can she poke her head out and see?

"Hey, this little brother, this is the place where the ladies are, please stop!" Before Rong Qi knew it, he walked to the place where the ladies gathered, and someone who was there had already stopped him. Only then did Rong Qi come back to his senses and bow to this person: "I just saw a relative here, and I want to go and say hello!" ”

The man looked at Rong Qi, and saw that he was not dressed like a subordinate or a peasant, so he thought that he was visiting relatives and friends, so he smiled and said, "This can't be done." We are a small place in the countryside, and we can't let every family build a shed to watch the dragon boat race here like other places. We just draw a place every year, and the carriage of the female dependents is parked here, and no one is allowed to come and go, and naturally no one can visit the relatives! ”

Rong Qi smiled: "I see, since this is the case, I won't go!" The person guarding saw that Rong Qi was speaking elegantly, so he smiled: "Wait a while, this dragon boat is over, each family's carriage is going from that end, if you want to go and greet your relatives, just wait there, just wait!" ”

Rong Qi hurriedly thanked the man and went to the other side. At this time, the dragon boat race has been completed, the winner received the lottery, in addition to the lottery head accumulated by each family, the victor also rowed the boat to the female dependents, and naturally there are maids to throw some copper coins and other things on the dragon boat. Whoever loses a lot will naturally have to thank you, and some people will sing it for a long time. This is something Yan Ran has never seen, and when she passed by the Zheng family's carriage, Yan Ran heard a long thank you, which was actually ten taels of silver, and couldn't help but sigh: "Why are there so many?" ”

"It's like this every year, sister, don't you know? Otherwise, why do these dragon boaters work so hard? Wei Ran said with great interest that today is a bumper harvest, not only seeing her fiancΓ©, but also watching the dragon boat race, and being able to talk about things she has never seen in front of her well-informed cousin, which is really different!

Yanran smiled again, and when all the dragon boats dispersed, today's dragon boat race ended, and the carriages of each family slowly drove home. Aunt Zheng was talking about this dragon boat race with Aunt Zheng's second aunt, and she heard her mother-in-law say there: "Third wife, there is a little brother who said that he wanted to come to see you!" ”

Aunt Zheng had already seen Rong Qi, but her husband had said such a thing, Aunt Zheng naturally wanted to follow her husband, lift the curtain and see Rong Qi standing there, in fact, this child is really good, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that Cheng Ruiru has been involved, besides, it's for his good not to communicate. Aunt Zheng said to Rong Qi: "Xiao Rong, thank you." It's just that in the future, you still remember the words of your third uncle! ”

Rong Qi should be, there was a disappointment on her face that could not be concealed, Aunt Zheng had already lowered the curtain, sighed heavily, Rong Qi watched the carriage gradually leave, passed by the window of a carriage next to her, and suddenly showed her face. Although it was only for a moment, Rong Qi felt that this trip was in vain. Rong Qi chased a few steps in the direction where the carriage was leaving, and the carriage had already been added by the coachman and left Rong Qi's sight.

After all, there is no fate between myself and her! Rong Qi couldn't help but think in his heart, if he had spoken first, wouldn't there have been so many entanglements? Rong Qi watched the carriage leave, and the thoughts that floated in his heart, I don't know if it was sour or bitter, or something else?

"Third Master Rong, why are you here, so that I am very easy to find?" The voice from beside him interrupted Rong Qi's thoughts, and Rong Qi hurriedly bowed his hand to the speaker: "I just saw an acquaintance, said a few words, and I was looking for you!" ”

"Third Master Rong, what kind of acquaintance are you?" Rong Qi understood why this person had this question, and said with a shallow smile: "It's not business!" This person was relieved, and said something else to Rong Qi, Rong Qi responded in his mouth, looked into the distance, and couldn't see it anymore, not even a trace of it.

"Mother, go back to Beijing! You've been with me for a month. I'm fine with everything! Yanran's words would reassure Aunt Zheng, she touched her daughter's face: "Nonsense, where are you doing, this face is thin!" ”

"Mother, are you so relieved to let your father be alone in the capital?" Aunt Zheng reached out and slapped her daughter: "Nonsense! Your father and I are both old husbands and wives, how can we not worry! ”

"Mother, I mean, Daddy is alone in the capital, how to eat, how to dress?" Yanran blinked deliberately, and Aunt Zheng's old face couldn't help but blush: "Okay, it's all my mother, wrong, my family Yanran, I didn't think about anything else!" ”

Yanran leaned on Aunt Zheng's shoulder: "Really, mother, go back to Beijing, I'll be fine, after the August Festival, I will go into the city to stay with you!" Aunt Zheng touched her daughter's hair and wanted to say something more, but the maid had already come in and said, "Miss, someone in the capital has sent you a letter!" ”

Yan Ran sighed, took the letter handed by the maid, and said to Aunt Zheng after reading it: "Mother, I'm here, I have to enter Beijing!" Aunt Zheng looked at her daughter strangely, and Yanran gave the letter to Aunt Zheng to take a look: "The eldest lady wrote it, saying that my uncle did not take the examination for Hanlin, and chose the official to go, and he got the Yangzhou general judgment, and he will leave Beijing in the near future, if I have time, I will go and talk to her!" ”

"Uncle can't stay in Beijing?" Aunt Zheng San frowned, and Yan Ran had already said with a smile: "This, I'm afraid that it's Shihou's family, and I don't want my uncle to settle down, and the officials of the Ministry of Officials are hindering my uncle from always being the son-in-law of Dingyuan Hou's Mansion, so I can't help but give him a little face, and give him a Yangzhou general judgment, which is already very face-giving!" ”

"You're so smart, and that's what your uncle said!" After marriage, Zeng Zhixian became more and more gentle, and looked at her bulging belly: "I can't wait for you ......to give birth."

"All the way by boat, steady, besides, we are now, not as good as before!" Zeng Zhixian replied with a smile, but the joy on her face had already leaked her mood. Yanran wanted to ask again, but a maid came in and said, "Second grandma, Grandma Cheng asks to see!" ”

The author has something to say: Work hard to let Brother Xiaorong and the heroine meet, there is fate!
