Tong Mingyu rushed to the hot spring villa by car early in the morning, Xiao Jun wanted to go with him, but was suppressed by the old man and Xiao Jingkang, so he had to put away his thoughts about revealing the news to his sister and continue to stay by his grandfather's side honestly.

It's already autumn in Kyoto, the flowers are gone, the leaves and dead branches are piled up on both sides of the road, and itinerant vendors and pedestrians are weaving through the streets. The sounds of various tones of selling, soliciting customers, and the voices of people talking inexplicably give people a sense of stability and peace.

Tong Mingyu knew that her daughter had always liked and envied this kind of market life, otherwise her father-in-law would not have said in front of the emperor and King Jing that day that he would take his granddaughter to grow vegetables and feed chickens.

It's a pity that her background and appearance are destined to have nothing to do with this kind of life in this life, so she can only live in a mountain villa in her spare time, visit the market, and enjoy the folk customs. The eldest lady of the Xiao family, the identity of the princess of King Jing's Mansion will make her farther and farther away from this life.

The hot spring lodge has been expanded to include a woodland and a small hill. Xiao Yao ordered people to build a row of houses by the relatively large spring, in which small vegetables were grown.

When Tong Mingyu arrived, the sisters were busy warming the house, and Xiao Yuan discussed with Xiao Yao while pulling weeds: "Sister, when will we go back to Kyoto!" Grandfather said that he didn't see anyone at all, but only sent a group of people, which was not fun at all. ”

"That's not what you said when you first came, you said it was fun and you wanted to stay until the Chinese New Year! Shallow and Xiaofu can all hear it. Xiao Yao was in charge of watering behind several people.

"I regret it now, let's go back to Beijing!"

"I'm not leaving." You can embroider wedding dresses all day long here, but you can't go home, and you still want to finish embroidering half of the year before the year!

"You're because of that dress, right? Sister, who are you helping to embroider? Xiao Yuancao didn't pull it out, stood up and asked curiously.

Tong Mingyu slowed down, this is also a problem she is more concerned about, and it is better to discuss it with the other party if she has the answer. I hope that person can be accommodating and let the embroiderer continue to embroider the rest of the part, because the daughter should also prepare embroidery for marriage.

"If I said I don't know, would you believe it? When someone brings the money, I just take it, and who she is! "The point is, I don't know who it is! Yun Yichen didn't let him say his name, and his mysterious fiancée had never heard of it herself, how could she tell you!

"You two come out, where is the eldest lady still looking, go back and wash up." The dignified Miss Hou Mansion squatted with the maid and the servant to pull weeds, so that outsiders didn't know how to laugh when they saw it!

As soon as Xiao Yao heard Tong Mingyu's voice, she threw the small wooden bucket in her hand aside, it was better to be a mother, and she had traveled so far early in the morning to see herself.

Xiao Yuan ran to Tong Mingyu's side with a "ahhh Now I can go home.

"Ping'an, you tell your mother the truth, who embroidered that wedding dress for."

"Mother, have there been any relatives of the imperial family in Kyoto recently?" If there is news of Yun Yichen's marriage, then his fiancée will also surface, and the answer that his mother wants will also be there.

Of course, the prince of King Jing's Mansion and the eldest lady of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion are married, whether it is major news! But now I can't let my daughter know that the official matchmaker of King Jing's Mansion has not yet come to the door; The second father-in-law was not in a good mood, and he didn't plan to let Ping An have contact with Yun Yichen before getting married, so he could only hide this matter from his daughter as much as possible.

"I really don't know, first someone asked for a big wedding dress, and after I finished drawing it, they were quite satisfied and offered to let me embroider it. I agreed to the reward, and it was as simple as that. "I was miserable by Yun Yichen, and I became a liar, and this lie is becoming more and more smooth.

Seeing that her daughter's big flickering eyes had no intention of dodging, although Tong Mingyu still had doubts in her heart, she also knew that she couldn't ask anything.

"Auntie, take us home!" Xiao Yuan has lived here for more than ten days, and the freshness has long passed, and she now misses the food, beautiful scenery and beautiful little picture books in Kyoto.

I really can't take the two children back now, because I don't know that the Jingwang Mansion will invite a matchmaker to come to the door that day, and there are still many things to deal with one after another. Privately, Tong Mingyu is also unwilling to let her daughter know the news of her marriage now, if she doesn't know, she will be as happy and carefree as she is now; If you know, your mood will definitely be affected, and you may never see her smile like this again.

"Not now, your grandfather is going to come to the villa in the past few days, maybe he will take you out for a walk, if you insist on going back to Beijing......" Tong Mingyu helped Xiao Yuan get the hair on her sideburns, this is a child who can't grow up, and she can only coax her with food and play.

"Then I'm not going back, you tell your grandfather to come early! And ......" Xiao Yuan looked at Xiao Yao with some fear, approached Tong Mingyu and said in a low voice: "You asked Qianxiang to help me find some painting books, she knows where it is, thank you." Xiao Yuan hugged Tong Mingyu's arm and shook it back and forth.

Tong Mingyu found the head of the village and the chief of the guard, and explained that they must protect the two young ladies, except for their own families, no one can be put into the villa, and if they disobey the order, they will be severely punished.

The two of them only responded, indicating that they remembered.

Xiao Yao cooked by herself and fried a few side dishes, Tong Mingyu stood by the kitchen door and looked at her busy daughter, relieved and sad.

After eating the food cooked by her daughter, Tong Mingyu was about to rush back, and she had to go back before the city gate was closed.

Before leaving, Tong Mingyu handed over the materials and dimensions for Yun Yichen to her daughter, and lied that Xiao Lang was going out, and his wife was pregnant and it was inconvenient to make clothes, so he asked Xiao Yao to help make a robe, a pair of boots, and an embroidered purse.

Xiao Yao agreed without thinking about it.

Tong Mingyu didn't dare to make eye contact with her daughter's clear and trusting gaze, and left the villa in a hurry. As soon as she arrived home with her front foot, Li Jiaoying and Yuan Yutong found Graceland with her back foot.

"Sister-in-law, you are back, King Jingfu handed over the post, and I will come to visit the day after tomorrow." The visit is fake, and it is true to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage! Li Jiaoying is not good at saying sour things in front of Yuan Yutong, but the unhappiness in her heart can be seen at a glance.

"Tomorrow's matchmaker is my mother, if we have any requirements, don't miss this opportunity." Yuan Yutong knew that the family was still unwilling to accept this matter for a while, and was unwilling to accept Yun Yichen as a person, all she could do was to do her best to appease her sisters-in-law.

"Has the house been cleaned, how is the banquet for my aunt prepared tomorrow? I would have liked not to have lunch at the lodge and would have come back earlier. Tong Mingyu couldn't sit still, and when she stood up, she wanted to call someone to explain the matter.

Li Jiaoying and Yuan Yutong helped Tong Mingyu back to sit down, and told her that the affairs at home had been almost arranged, and that Mrs. Yuan was not an outsider, so she just went through the motions.

Tong Mingyu doesn't agree with the younger siblings' statement, Mrs. Yuan represents Jingwangfu, if the Xiao family is a little neglectful, it is disrespectful to Jingwangfu.

The daughter promised to the royal family seems to be beautiful, but the Xiao family is passive everywhere, and they have to put the other party first in everything, and how many people can understand this feeling of powerlessness!

The next day, the Xiao family got up early, and Tong Mingyu checked around again, so as not to have any omissions. After breakfast, the people who went to school were sent away, and several women sat in the hall waiting for the distinguished guests and chatting.

"Sister-in-law, how do you say that Yuan Ying will be given to Ah Rui?" Yuan Yutong asked very seriously, his son was like a wild horse on the loose, and he couldn't see a figure all day long. Now that he finally found an errand under his second uncle, which can be regarded as stable, Yuan Yutong naturally thought of marrying him a daughter-in-law.

"That kid is good, generous, easy-going, neat in his work, and he gets along well with Ruyi, have you asked the Yuan family's aunt's opinion?"

Yuan Yutong smiled and nodded, this matter was not brought up by himself, but by his sister-in-law. Regardless of whether she listened to the words of her family, or she was about to marry into King Jing's Mansion when she saw peace, she was quite satisfied with her niece anyway. If the Xiao family has no opinions, Yuan Yutong plans to ask her husband and son, settle the family affairs as soon as possible, and marry her daughter-in-law before she gets married safely.

"Old lady, ma'am, here you are, here you are." The jubilant steward trotted in to report, happier than having a happy event in his own family!.

Tong Mingyu's heart trembled, here, King Jing's Mansion really came to propose.

The door of Xiao's house was wide open, and the matchmaker of King Jing's Mansion was greeted with the highest specifications, Mrs. Yuan. But how could there be two carriages! Could it be that Princess Jing came in person.

You must know that today is the first time that the matchmaker has come to the door, according to the procedure of getting married, today is just a formality, and there will be no substantial progress, how could Princess Jing come!

The curtain of the first car was lifted a gap, and Mrs. Yuan's voice came out from inside: "Eldest daughter-in-law, how about we drive the car inside and talk again?" ”

"It's the juniors who are not thinking about it, please inside." Tong Mingyu glanced at the car behind him as if he had inadvertently, Old Madam Yuan's carriage was just the kind that ordinary officials' families rode in, and the car in the back was obviously much more atmospheric and spacious. Looking at the body shape of the guards on the side, the movements are uniform, and the momentum of that body cannot be practiced without strict training.

After the carriage entered the middle of the courtyard and stopped, Old Madam Yuan was helped out first, and she walked to the car behind and whispered: "Eldest princess, the Xiao family has arrived." ”

The eldest princess, the Xiao family looked at each other, Tong Mingyu had already given the people around her a look, and ordered them to call everyone else in the family out. Whether it is the eldest daughter of the emperor or the eldest princess of Deqing, who has the highest backup, her own family must pay attention to it and welcome it ceremoniously.

"Is it there? Ah Chen, this stinky boy, still wants to hide from me and secretly settle his relatives, I have already said that I should be the matchmaker, he doesn't take it seriously, see how I clean him up when I go back. ”

As the curtain of the car was lifted, a woman wearing a purple palace dress came down, noble and majestic, which made people admire at first sight.

Tong Mingyu secretly figured out the identity of the person who came, according to Mrs. Yuan, she was the eldest princess of Deqing with the greatest possibility.

King Jing's Mansion actually invited the eldest princess of Deqing to be a matchmaker, and it seems that her daughter's marriage is not good if she wants to keep a low profile.
