"This Tanhualang's surname is Wei, and there is only one old mother in the family, who spins and weaves cloth for him to study for the imperial examination. Although his family background is a little poor, he is now admitted to Tanhualang, and he is valued by the emperor, and his future is unlimited. And I also went to inquire about his character, who is courteous, affectionate and righteous, and is the same age as you, which is a rare and good match. ”

Hearing this, Yilan's eyes moved, and he wandered over the scroll in front of him, it is undeniable that the man in the scroll is still eye-catching, and the identity of Tanhua is also passable; But it depends on who you compare with, if you compare it with Yinzhen, even if you explore flowers, it's just a puddle of mud. In terms of appearance, Yinzhen, who inherited the appearance of Kangxi and Concubine De, is many times more handsome than him, and in terms of identity, he is not even qualified to compare.

As early as when she was ten years old, she had already made up her mind that she would have everything that her sister had, and that she would have more and better than her sister's, and that no one would look down on her.

Yinzhen, in this life, she will only marry such a man!

However, these words, Yilan would not say at this moment, she raised her head to meet Ling Ruo's eager gaze, covered up all her calculations, and smiled innocently: "Sister can't wait to let Lan'er get married?" ”

Ling Ruo didn't know the many calculations in Yilan's heart, and stroked the silver thread and pink crystal tassel that fell on her sideburns and sighed: "I can't wait, my sister doesn't know how reluctant Lu Dao is." It's just that when a man gets married and a woman gets married, you can't delay your life's events because you are reluctant, so my sister should feel guilty for a lifetime. ”

She looked at Yilan's bright face and suddenly said something that surprised Yilan, "Lan'er, my sister knows that you have a high heart and don't want to become an ordinary wife, but you listen to your sister's advice, the road to the harem is really not easy to walk, I don't know what will happen tomorrow today, and if you are not careful, you will turn into a pile of white bones under other people's feet." Many times, ordinary is happiness, rather than competing for favor with a bunch of women, life and death; It's better to find a good son and live a peaceful life. I believe in my sister, my sister will never harm you, and you don't have to worry about it in the future, not to mention that Wei Tanhua is an official of the imperial court, even my sister will never let you suffer a little grievance. There is another sentence that Ling Ruo has not said, when Yilan gets married, she will devote all her resources to prepare a rich dowry for her, so that she will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

Listening to Ling Ruoyi's words, Yilan was secretly shocked, it seemed that her sister was not as ignorant as she thought, but fortunately, she didn't know what she really planned in her heart.

Thinking of this, her eyes moved, she threw herself into Ling Ruo's arms, and said with tears in her eyes: "Sister is very hard, how can Lan'er not understand the reason; It's just that Lan'er is still young and wants to accompany Ama Eniang more, and she doesn't want to get married so early. ”

Ling Ruo looked at her and said softly, "But you're going to be drafted next year......

"Then remarry next year!" She interrupted Ling Ruo's words, and then she was coquettish and obsessed for a long time, and finally Ling Ruo relented and promised her to stay for another year. However, Ling Ruo also said that Wei Tanhua is a rare young talent, and if he misses it, it will be difficult to find it again.

It's just that Yilan wants to marry into the Yongwang Mansion, so how can he care about a little Tanhualang, just give up with a few perfunctory words.

After having lunch with Liuyilan, Ling Ruofang ordered the newcomer Chen Mo to send her back, along with a few pots of rare green chrysanthemums.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Ling Ruo took a short rest, and when he woke up, he found that it was raining lightly outside, rustling on the flowers and leaves outside.

Ling Ruo sat on the head of the bed for a while before he called Shui Xiu in and asked if Yin Zhen had returned home.

Shui Xiu put a freshly stewed rock sugar bird's nest soup in her hand, "The slave maid heard from the people in the front yard that the fourth master will come back as soon as he comes, but he will go to the Lanxin Pavilion to see Brother Yun." ”

Ling Ruo nodded, and after looking down at the bird's nest soup stewed with white swallows in the bowl, he frowned slightly, "I remember that a batch of high-grade blood swallows only came into the house, and they ran out so quickly?" ”

As soon as he said this, Shui Xiu became angry, "Where is it used up." Originally, in addition to the common exceptions of the prince and the grandson Fujin and Nian Fujin, there were still four or five catties left, but when the slave maid went to get it, she happened to meet the thrush of the Lanxin Pavilion, she said that Tong Fujin has been weak since giving birth to Brother Yun, and needs to take bird's nest, ginseng and other nourishing things. When he opened his mouth, he took away all the remaining catties of blood swallows, and there was nothing left. The slave maid also saw Tong Fujin a few days ago, why didn't she see half a weak look. ”

"That's it, it's just a little blood swallow, there's no need to be angry about it." Ling Ruo slowly ate the soft and glutinous bird's nest mixed with rock sugar. Before, because of Jing Xue's matter, she had never taken the time to see the person in Ah Yi's mouth, but now that it has come to an end, it should naturally not be delayed any longer, so as not to cause any changes out of thin air.

It's just that with her identity, it's not easy to go out of the house, even if it's an excuse to go back to visit Ama and them, you have to agree with Yinzhen in advance. And there must be someone to follow and protect this time, and the matter of going to ** Zhai by himself must not be hidden from Yinzhen, rather than explaining it at that time, it is better to think about what to say now.

At night, Yin Zhen came to see Ling Ruo and said his son's words, Ling Ruo suddenly knelt down and said, "Please forgive the fourth master for the crime of concealing the concubine's body?" In Yinzhen's surprised gaze, she said forgivingly: "Shui Yue, who is next to the concubine, used to be an incense-making family, and opened a ** Zhai that was quite famous in Beijing at that time; Helplessly, the family changed drastically, the family road fell, and the recipe for making incense was lost a lot, although Shui Yue was forced to sell himself into slavery, but he always thought that he could revive the family and start fasting again. She bit her lip and said nervously: "A few days ago, Shui Yue made some incense powder with the remnant recipe, and the concubine felt good, and remembered her long-term wish, so she gave some silver, and opened a fragrant powder shop in the name of ** Zhai in the suburbs of Beijing, and asked Ah Yi to go out of the house to help take care of one or two. For fear that the fourth master would blame, the concubine didn't dare to say it clearly, but after thinking about it, she felt that she shouldn't hide it from the fourth master, so she dared to make a statement and ask the fourth master to forgive her sins. ”

As a royal Fujin, living in a simple place, he should not be contaminated with affairs outside the house, let alone opening a store to do business, although he is hiding Yinzhen at the moment, but who can guarantee that he can hide it for a lifetime? What's more, she wasn't sure if Yinzhen really didn't know anything about them. Sure enough, Yinzhen's next sentence surprised her.

But after staring at Ling Ruo for a moment, Yinzhen stared at Ling Ruo and said, "Are you finally willing to speak?" I thought you were going to hide this from me for the rest of my life! ”

"Fourth Master!" Ling Ruo suddenly raised his head, there was unspeakable surprise in his eyes, he ...... Sure enough, he has always known the way, but he didn't mention it, and he pretended not to know the way.
