Chapter 37 The Second Girl of the Xu Family
And the fourth prince in Chen Xuan's mouth, Xu Jiayi has only heard of this name, and has never seen him at all.
Wang Yunxiu glanced at Chen Xuan, "I can't see that you still know this." ”
"It's just something that everyone knows, but you don't know it because you don't go out often." Chen Xuan's face was full of arrogance, but he pretended not to care, deliberately lowered his voice, and whispered, "But I didn't expect him to be so bold and dare to mess around in the eldest princess's mansion." ”
"No, I didn't hear that the fourth prince would come to the princess's mansion today......" Chen Xuan frowned, thinking a little strangely. If the four princes are here, what about the five princes? Is it also in the Eldest Princess's Mansion?
Therefore, it is true that today's flower viewing banquet intends to choose a princess for the two princes, and the two princes are also at the scene.
After a long time, silence returned to the surroundings.
Chen Xuan glanced at Xu Jiayi, pointed to the way they came, and asked silently, should they be able to go?
Before Xu Jiayi could reply, she saw that Wang Yunxiu had pursed her lips and shook her head slightly, hinting to wait a while. Chen Xuan nodded slightly, and quietly moved her body to change herself into a comfortable position.
After about a quarter of an hour, I saw a man and a woman walking out of the rockery. The woman's face was a little unnaturally flushed, and she leaned coquettishly in the man's arms, "Why are you leaving so soon, and I haven't been seeing you for long." ”
"Not satisfied?" The fourth prince's thin lips hooked slightly, lowered his head and pouted lightly on her mouth, and then reached out and pinched Xiao Xue'er's face, "I still have something to do, I have to leave first." ”
Xiao Xue'er drew a circle on the chest of the fourth prince, and said delicately and softly, "All the sisters who came today are as beautiful as flowers, and Xue'er is worried that His Royal Highness will forget Xue'er when he sees them." ”
"No, it won't."
The two flirted and scolded for a while, and then they tidied up their clothes and left. Listening to the sound of footsteps gradually moving away, Xu Jiayi quietly stretched her neck and glanced in the direction where the four princes and they left, and when she saw that there was no one, she exhaled deeply, "Let's go, we've been out for some hours, we have to go back quickly." ”
Wang Yunxiu changed her standing posture and pounded her legs, she didn't feel it when she was tense just now, but now she relaxed and found that both legs were numb. Chen Xuan was not as elegant as Wang Yunxiu, standing on one leg and throwing the other leg directly, but he had recovered in a few clicks.
Just as Xu Jiayi and the others were about to leave, they heard a voice coming from not far away.
"Miss Xu, wait!"
Xu Jiayi paused, and followed the prestige a little strangely, but saw a man gradually approaching them, "Miss Xu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
When did he get here, did he see what had just happened?
Also, as a man, why can he come and go freely in and out of the Eldest Princess's Mansion. What is the relationship between him and the four princes? Is it a coincidence here that the appearance is intentional? Xu Jiayi was a little flustered in her heart, subconsciously squeezed Wang Yunxiu's hand, pursed her lips and stared at the visitor vigilantly, and did not answer.
Seeing Xu Jiayi's defensive appearance, a touch of unnaturalness flashed on Mu Qingfeng's face, and he said tentatively, "You don't remember me?" I am Mu Qingfeng, the son of Jiaqing Bofu. When you were in a coma, I went to visit you with my mother! ”
It seems that there is such a person.
Xu Jiayi frowned slightly, several years have passed since the incident, plus she was seriously injured at the time, and she was groggy all day and didn't remember, so she really didn't have much impression of the person in front of her.
On the other hand, Wang Yunxiu and Chen Xuan, who were on the side, recognized Mu Qingfeng, and leaned over slightly to salute, "I've seen the son." ”
Wang Yunxiu quietly tugged at Xu Jiayi's sleeve, Xu Jiayi lowered her eyes slightly, and bowed short.
Mu Qingfeng returned the salute with a smile, and asked out loud as if unintentionally, "Today, the eldest princess held a flower viewing banquet in the front yard, why did you come to the backyard?" Did you accidentally get lost? ”
Chen Xuan glanced at Xu Jiayi, pursed her lips and did not speak. Wang Yunxiu answered, "We were originally enjoying the flowers, and we saw a butterfly flying over and chased all the way, but I didn't expect the butterfly to catch up, but people got lost." I thought we would find our way back, but we strayed into the inner courtyard of the princess's mansion. ”
Mu Qingfeng nodded slightly, and he didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he showed them the way. After Wang Yunxiu thanked him, he pulled Xu Jiayi and Chen Xuan and walked in the direction pointed out by Mu Qingfeng. After disappearing from Mu Qingfeng's sight, the three of them almost ran forward.
It didn't take long for me to reach the front yard. At that time, the Zhao family was leading Cui Qing and Cui Xin around looking for them. After seeing the two of them come back, Zhao took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat of the two girls, and scolded, "It's all sweaty, where did you go?!" ”
Hearing this, Xu Jiayi's face turned a little redder, so she replied with the words she had just coaxed Mu Qingfeng, "Mother, just now when my cousin and I were enjoying the flowers over there, we saw a colorful butterfly, and I thought it was beautiful and ran after it." ”
"How can you still be like a child when you're such an adult?" Zhao complained twice, but didn't say anything else. Zhao turned his head to look at Chen Xuan on the side, "You talk about you, just mess around by yourself, and drag Miss Chen to run around." ”
"Mrs. Wang, I don't care about them, I have to follow them. Speaking of which, I don't know each other one by one, although I haven't seen each other for so many years, I feel very cordial when I look at it now. Chen Xuan hurriedly explained with a smile, winking at Xu Jiayi and Wang Yunxiu, afraid that her mother would be worried, Chen Xuan also said goodbye in a timely manner.
By the time I got back from the princess's mansion, it was already early.
After laughing all day, several girls felt some pain in their faces. At this moment, in the carriage, I quietly moved the muscles on my face before I felt that the soreness was lessened. Everyone was a little tired and leaned on the carriage, and Zhao and Qian couldn't help but purse their lips and smile when they saw it, "In the past, when you weren't allowed to go out, you were all clamoring to go out, but now you know that this banquet is not so easy to attend." ”
Xu Jiayi buried her face and fell into Zhao's arms to be coquettish, Zhao gently patted her back, "Look at you and the Chen family's girl, you can invite these little sisters to sit in the house when you are free." ”
Chen Xuan still has several brothers!
Xu Jiayi and Wang Yunxiu glanced at each other and responded lightly. Zhao looked at Cui Qing and Cui Xin on the side, "You two are the same, if there are posts from other mansions to you, you can also go out and walk around more." ”
Cui Qing pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and nodded according to his words, but his heart was full of bitterness and resentment.
Although Xu Jiayi is not the granddaughter of Shangshufu, she is also the granddaughter of Shangshufu. The whole family spoiled her from top to bottom, and even the other kings and granddaughters in Yanjing City were polite to her.
And she is just the daughter of a poor relative who fights the autumn wind in Shangshu Mansion, where can she compare with her?
asked the Zhao family to help him propose to the Jiaqing Bofu before, but the Zhao family directly refused. But fortunately, today she showed her face in front of several ladies and won a good impression, and she also met several good sisters, and made an appointment to meet again in a few days.
After returning home, Xu Jiayi hung her head and walked towards Jiaxi Garden, as soon as she looked up, she saw Xiangqiao waiting for her at the second door, glanced at Xiangqiao, took her hand and walked back, Xu Jiayi asked suspiciously, "Why are you waiting here?" ”
Seeing that Xu Jiayi was back, Yuan Xiang helped Xu Jiayi into the house and sat down, and said, "Girl, the second girl from the Xu Mansion is here, and she has been waiting for you in the side hall of the courtyard for a day." ”
Xu Jiayi lowered her eyes and thought for a while before she remembered who the second girl of the Xu Mansion was.
Xu Jiamin ranked second in Xufu. -
She has been raised in Shangshu Mansion since she was a child, and Xu Jiamin is the oldest in Shangshu Mansion, Xu Mingda and Mrs. Xu are also very fond of this granddaughter, and her food and clothing are not worse than their daughters. Although he is only thirteen years old now, he is already well-known in Yanjing City.
Anyone who hears this name has to praise the person with a beautiful mouth and a sweet mouth, which is a likable. It's a pity that she is just a concubine, she is not high or low, and she has such a famous father, so I have heard that there are matchmakers who have gone to talk about matchmakers, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to get married in the future.
Xu Jiayi even felt that even if she was raised in Xu's mansion, she couldn't compare to Xu Jiamin. But what did she come to her for today?
Who asked her to come, was it Mrs. Xu, or Xu Mingda?!
Xu Jiayi raised her eyebrows, and a light smile hooked up on her lips, "Let's go, let's go meet this good sister of mine too." ”
Wang Wanwan's dowry list was also kept in Shangshufu, and after Xu Jiayi returned to the house and talked to Zhao, Zhao asked Zhao Mama to take the dowry list to Xu's mansion on the second day to ask for an account. Xu Jiayi didn't know what the specific situation was, but she heard that Mama Zhao's face was a little ugly when she came back, and she seemed to be angry.
can make Mama Zhao angry, and I don't know which hero in the Xu Mansion is.
Xu Jiamin packed up early this morning and went out to Shangshu Mansion, but he didn't expect the porter to say that Xu Jiayi was not in the mansion. I thought it was Xu Jiayi's excuse for refusing to see her, but I didn't expect to find that the person was really not there after entering the house.
It was a flower-viewing banquet hosted by the eldest father, and she didn't even have the qualifications to get the invitation, but Xu Jiayi went casually. It's really more human than human, and it's infuriating. If it weren't for a good mother's family, what could she Xu Jiayi compare to herself!
Even though he was unhappy, Xu Jiamin also kept in mind the purpose of coming today, and did not turn his face and leave on the spot. politely went to the side hall of Jiaxi Garden and waited. After seeing the decorations of Jiaxi Garden, Xu Jiamin's heart was extremely unbalanced, but he could only endure it, sitting aside and waiting quietly.
After the maid served several pots of tea, Xu Jiamin felt that she was about to fall asleep. looked at the sky outside, but in his heart, he kept slandering Xu Jiayi why he hadn't come back yet. When Xu Jiamin, who was drowsy, heard the sound and looked over, he saw a woman who looked like a fairy walking in from outside.
