Chapter 269: Hangzhou

After that day in Yangzhou, there was no further delay along the way, and finally arrived in Hangzhou in mid-July.

Getting off the boat, the carriage from Yunshan Academy to pick up Mr. Zhou and the carriage sent by the Mingqing Mansion to pick up Xie Chiying, Jinghu and Ke Mingxu were already waiting on the dock early.

Mr. Zhou got off the boat, and he didn't even want to give a look to the people of Mingqing Palace, Jinghu looked funny, and couldn't help but tease him again, "Sir, don't you really want to go to Mingqing Mansion with us?" ”

"It's not just about fine wine, I heard that when the old prince was alive, he raised a lot of kabuki in the house, and now that the age is gone, the sentiment in the song is not comparable to others, so you don't want to listen to it?"

According to Ke Mingxu, Mr. Zhou once had an interest in the princess of Mingqing, and the old prince was the husband of the concubine, and he would not make the concubine too happy if he raised these kabuki. She just wanted to see how he reacted.

Mr. Zhou stroked his beard and snorted coldly, "The old man has been traveling from south to north for so many years, can't he still listen to a few songs?" Don't go! If the little county lord talks to the old man again, then the old man will take Mingxu on the road together. ”

I still know how to threaten her. On weekdays, when she joked with him, he always laughed and didn't say anything, or came back with tricks, but now it seems that he is really annoyed.

It's funny. Maybe the old lady of King Mingqing is really the old man's heart, so others can't mention it.

He said so, and he has always been a disregarding character, saying that if he changes the hexagram, he will change the hexagram, and Jinghu will not tease him, in case he really wants to pull Ke Mingxu on the road, it will be more than worth the loss.

"Then sir, let's go, we'll see you in a few days."

Jinghu is indispensable, but Xie Chiying is a little reluctant to Mr. Zhou, "Sir, you should pay attention to your body, meet with old friends, and don't be greedy for cups, when the time comes, you will hurt your body." ”

"When I see my sister, I will ask her to help arrange the tour in Hangzhou earlier, you just have to wait with peace of mind."

Mr. Zhou also seems to like Xie Chiying very much, and he is a little more reluctant than when he talks to Jinghu, "Ying girl accompanies your sister well, and she is not in a hurry about the next things, she has decided to go to Jiahe together, and there is always a lot of time to get along." ”

Xie Chiying nodded, Ke Mingxu also stepped forward to say goodbye to Mr. Zhou, and entered Hangzhou City in two ways.

During this period of time, Jinghu had heard Xie Chiying talk a lot about her sister, and King Mingqing was also her cousin, and she was not a person who was afraid of life, so she didn't feel anything.

On the contrary, Xie Chiying had not actually been a guest before, and she looked a little nervous.

Jinghu laughed at her, "What are you afraid of, you are the daughter of the Xie family in Huai'an." Take out your usual dignified appearance and it will be very foolish, and I have always been an unruly person to foil you. ”

Xie Chiying lifted the curtain slightly and looked out, the Mingqing Palace was also built on the side of the West Lake, and the lake was full of tourists. "You are the lord of the small county, and you are relatives of King Mingqing's family, so naturally you can do anything."

"But after all, my sister is a daughter-in-law in the Mingqing Palace, and I am her sister, of course, I am afraid that I will make a mistake and make my sister-in-law's family dislike."

"When I get to the palace, I really want to be very energetic to pretend to be a lady, don't hold me back."

Jinghu felt a little funny, "Then I really want to see what the daughter of the Xie family in Huai'an looks like." ”

He patted her hand again and comforted her, "Didn't you say that your sister wrote back and said that my cousin's family was very kind?" This is not necessarily empty words to appease you and your mother's heart. ”

"Although I didn't have any dealings with the people in the Mingqing Palace, I have met the Mingqing Princess, she and my grandmother are handkerchiefs, and when my third brother got married last year, she stayed in our mansion."

"I remember that she was very kind, and your sister was virtuous and intelligent, and she would not fail to please her. Your sister is loved by her husband and supported by her mother's family, so she won't have a bad life. ”

Xie Chiying lowered the curtain, "That being said, after all, they are sisters, and they are always a little worried. When the time comes, I won't be able to walk around casually, so if it's convenient for you, you might as well help me inquire more. ”

"As you just said, although the Mingqing Mansion is a royal noble, our Xie family is also a well-known family in Jiangnan, if they really make my sister wronged, I will tell my grandfather the truth."

Jinghu teased: "It's really a little girl's mind, just like the day in March, I can't guess it." Fang Cai just made up his mind to be a small suit and leave a good impression on your sister-in-law's family, but now he is arrogant again and wants to bully others. ”

"The men in the Mingqing Mansion are all the same as me, their surname is Jing, why should I help you?"

Xie Chiying knew that Jinghu was just joking with her, so she just glanced at her with disgust, and didn't say anything more, looking still a little nervous.

Jinghu was embarrassed to laugh at her anymore. Xie Chiying can think about her sister like this, and in order to see her sister's in-laws so nervous, it seems that their sisters do have a good relationship.

She couldn't help but feel a little stunned, she didn't have such a sister. Maybe it was until Zhenning declined, or when Qingrou and Li Yi got married, that she could have similar feelings.

The July day was still a little hot, and Jinghu couldn't help but lift the curtains, wanting to take a look at the scenery outside. This is the first time she has seen West Lake, and she can't see the edge.

There are green hills on all sides, and pedestrians walk under the weeping willows on the embankment with oil-paper umbrellas. The sound of cicadas chirping will never stop.

"If it's not so hot, it's really a blessing to live by the West Lake. When I go to West Lake once, I'm afraid I will be even more reluctant to go. ”

When the time comes, she can still be with Xie Chiying and Ke Mingxu, and she will be happy to think about it.

"The water is shining and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy. If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, light makeup is always appropriate. I've been here before, and people always think it's rare to see beautiful scenery. Just like when I went to Yanjing this time, I also felt that Yanjing was very good. ”

"But if you really want me to leave Huai'an and move here, I'm afraid I won't be reluctant. After all, the relocation of the land is the nature of the people. ”

But in this world, women are always like wanderers, and who knows where they will fall in the future. That is, where it falls, it is just his home.

After staying in the Xie family for a few days, and listening to the Xie family's daughter's attitude towards marriage, she always seemed to be a little melancholy, but fortunately, Xie Chiying didn't have the heart to pay attention to her at the moment.

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the Mingqing Palace, Jinghu suppressed some meaningless thoughts in his heart, and concentrated on looking forward to what would happen after entering the mansion.
