Text Chapter 296 Two women in one play
Ye Xushuang got up early in the morning and asked Xin'er to wash herself, and she wanted to see the eldest princess naturally more decently. After freshening up, he set off for the Marquis of Anguo's mansion.
As soon as Song Zhaohua heard that the guest was Ye Xushuang, he knew that she was here for his younger brother Song Zhancheng, and thought of how much Song Zhancheng cared about Bu Yun, so he felt that Ye Xushuang was a little pitiful.
After Ye Xushuang came in, she greeted Song Zhaohua in a proper manner, and said, "The concubine asks the eldest princess to say goodbye." Song Zhaohua waved his hand and told her to excuse herself.
Song Zhaohua asked kindly, "Why did Shuang'er remember to come to the eldest sister?" Ye Xushuang replied with a smile: "It's always boring in the house, so come to the eldest sister to talk, the eldest sister won't be annoying to me." β
"How so?" Song Zhaohua smiled and said to the maid: "Go and make a cup of this year's new Dongting Biluochun for the princess." After that, Song Zhaohua said to Ye Xushuang: "This Biluochun tastes good, you can try it." β
Ye Xushuang took the maid's tea, took a sip, and said: "The taste is sweet and not slippery, it is the best among the teas, and this is only available in the Biluochun of the North Gully." Ye Xushuang paused, and then said: "This taste is mellow but lacks some wind bones, eldest sister, the autoclaving is too much." β
Song Zhaohua was quite surprised and said, "I didn't expect you to know so much." Ye Xushuang smiled modestly and replied, "I usually have nothing to do, so I just dabble in it." Song Zhaohua raised his eyebrows and asked, "How to deal with the autoclaved pressure that is too high?" β
Ye Xushuang looked at the eldest princess and replied: "This is related to the shape of the tea set itself, the eldest princess can try the Jianzhou black glazed tea cup." β
Ye Xushuang continued: "This tea is white tea, so it should be boiled with a black cup, the black cup in Jianzhou is the best, the texture of the tea cup is fine, the original embryo is not thick or thin, and it is cold and heat resistant, so I recommend the eldest sister to use the Jianzhou black cup." Song Zhaohua asked, "Where did you know this?" β
Ye Xushuang replied: "The concubine used to read a book of "Tea Records", which read: "The shape is also very particular, the bottom must be deep and slightly wide, the bottom is deep, the tea should stand and easy to take milk, and the width is the carriage of the whisk through, which does not hinder the blow." β
Ye Xushuang then added: "The meaning of this passage is probably that if the mouth of the tea cup is relatively large, it is more suitable for brewing tea leaves with camellias, and if the wall of the cup is vertical or oblique, it is not suitable for camellias. When drinking tea, the main thing is to look at the color of the tea and the camellia. With that, he took another sip of tea.
Song Zhaohua was impressed by Ye Xushuang again, and praised: "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable and strong, and you will definitely be able to take care of the palace in the future." β
When it came to the palace, Ye Xushuang was obviously not very interested, and Song Zhaohua hurriedly changed the topic when he saw this, and said: "Shuang'er's steps today are also very good-looking." β
Ye Xushuang touched the step shake on the head, the upper part of the step shake is folded into a small flower with silver sheets, the stamen is inlaid with white jade, and a small flower is hidden under the two leaves, and there are a few embellished petals below the step shake, which looks very delicate and elegant.
Song Zhaohua remembered to tease Ye Xushuang and said, "Shuang'er is erudite and talented, can you know the origin of this step?" Ye Xushuang knew that the opportunity to show herself in front of Song Zhaohua had come again, so she said: "From "Interpretation of the Name", the step is shaken, there are hanging beads, and the step is shaken. β
In fact, as long as you are a woman, you should know the common sense of this step. Song Zhaohua looked at Ye Xushuang and said, "It seems that Shuang'er likes to shake very much, and the eldest sister will also give you one." β
Song Zhaohua said to the maid, "Go and bring that gold-inlaid jade step." The maid found the step shake from the eldest princess's jewelry box, and there was a phoenix on it, carved in gold vividly, as if she wanted to flutter her wings and fly high, and the bottom was pendant with colorful jade, and if it was shaken, it would make a dingdong sound.
Ye Xushuang was a little stunned for a while, how could this step shake be carved so beautifully and exquisitely?
Song Zhaohua smiled and said to Ye Xushuang: "If Shuang'er likes it, this step will be given to Shuang'er." Ye Xushuang was a little embarrassed to accept it, and asked, "Eldest princess, this is too precious to be used." β
Song Zhaohua pretended to be angry and said, "How can Shuang'er not want it? You look great with it. Song Zhaohua actually sent her this step to comfort herself, there is such an obedient, sensible and knowledgeable princess, but her younger brother is tempted by a maid.
Ye Xushuang took this step shake, looked at it carefully, and found that there were carved flowers under the phoenix, and the carvings on the wings of the phoenix were not the same.
Ye Xushuang asked in surprise: "The pattern of this carving is actually different!" Song Zhaohua smiled and said, "You take a closer look." β
Ye Xushuangzi carefully observed the carvings on the two wings, one side is an auspicious cloud-like pattern, the other side is a plum-like pattern, both sides are embellished with jade or white jade, and the white jade reveals a trace of halo.
"This step shake can be called a peerless step shake." Ye Xushuang said with emotion after reading it. Song Zhaohua replied: "This step shake is too cumbersome, I like to be plain, so I will give this step shake to my sister." β
Ye Xushuang accepted it generously and thanked him, the two chatted for a long time, Song Zhaohua felt a little tired, so he let Ye Xushuang go back to the palace.
Ye Xushuang didn't think about it so much, she didn't expect to receive such a beautiful step shake when she went on a trip.
Song Zhaohua gave Ye Xushuang Bu Shao, completely because he knew that his younger brother Song Zhancheng was in love with Buyun, but he could only delay Ye Xushuang.
On Hengguo's side, Cheng Jingyun received Song Zhancheng's second letter, only to know that she forgot to write to him yesterday, so she was a little embarrassed to write a long letter, most of which was speculation about the situation in Yiguo and her recent boredom, as well as a little miss for Song Zhancheng.
When Song Zhancheng received the envelope, he was so excited that he hurriedly opened the letter and read it over and over again, Cheng Jingyun's familiar handwriting made Song Zhancheng feel very relieved.
Cheng Jingyun was always pulled by Lan Su looking for various opportunities, isn't this Cheng Jingyun going to visit Mengxi, but was stopped by Lan Su halfway, Lan Su shouted, "Jingyun!" Cheng Jingyun turned her head and asked lightly, "What's wrong?" What's the matter? β
Lan Su used his nirvana again and said, "Can't you really take care of the old feelings?" Can you bear to see me like this? Is this the end of our friendship? There is a marriage contract between us, so do you treat me like that? β
Cheng Jingyun heard Lan Su's voice, and had a headache, he had said this countless times, and he let himself miss the old feelings every day, but he just said a few words over and over again, and he didn't say what the old feelings were? Could it be that he has lost his memory?
This thought suddenly crossed Cheng Jingyun's mind, could it be that the serious illness three years ago made him lose his memory? Then why does he still remember our marriage contract and remember that Cheng Jingyun is his fiancΓ©e?
