Chapter 39: Jinling Affair (2)

Xinyue looked at Yao'er with her back to her, the emotions surging in her heart made her unable to suppress, her face turned white, Yao'er was not really angry, thinking that at this time, Xinyue had come to coax herself, and after waiting for a while, she didn't see Xinyue speak, just squinted and looked at her, but when she saw Xinyue's pale face, her whole body was trembling, and she immediately lost her sense of proportion, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, don't scare me, you, it's Yao'er's fault, Yao'er is talking nonsense, don't be angry." ”

As soon as Yao'er touched Xinyue's hand, she felt that her hand was cold, and her pale face really frightened her, Xinyue suppressed it, and finally barely squeezed out a smile, "In a few days, I will go to see my sister-in-law, you can come with me." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't talk to me like that, I..." Yao'er's big eyes, like a rainy day, tears continued to flow, Xinyue was helpless, and wiped the tears on her face with the handkerchief she had just given herself, "If you cry again, I will really go to the palace to invite Lady Zhang." ”

As soon as Xinyue's words fell, Yao'er hurriedly wiped the tears from her face, and smiled at Xinyue with tears in her eyes, Xinyue sighed, "Yao'er, sister-in-law, there is only one you." ”

"Sister-in-law" said, Yao'er threw herself into Xinyue's arms again, and Xinyue put the hat in her hand on Yao'er's head, "I'm about to get married, but I can't let people see that I've cried." ”

Yao'er nodded obediently, "Yao'er knows." ”

After a while, the carriage stopped, and Yao'er, who was leaning on Xinyue's shoulder, heard Xinyue breathe a sigh of relief, "Yes, sister-in-law, we are all back." ”

"Clever kid." As she spoke, Crescent Moon touched her little face again.

After getting out of the carriage, Kong Mao was reaching out to help Shan'er get out of the carriage, she was only three months pregnant, so she didn't show her pregnancy, but looking at her posture when she got off the carriage, it still showed her delicateness.

"You're pregnant, go to the dock and take a turn, take care of it" Xinyue stood at the door of Yuwang Beppu and glanced at Shan'er coldly. The relationship between the two is not good, and they don't even bother to be polite, but Yao'er and Kong Mao are used to seeing each other.

"Yes, the ferry is windy, what I'm afraid of is that this wind will blow Yao'er's dowry to the hands of the mountain bandits..."

Xinyue lowered her head and laughed, Yao'er turned her head to look at the smile on Xinyue's face, "So, sister-in-law, you won't be angry?" ”

"You're clever," Crescent Moon took her hand, and the two of them went to the inner courtyard together.

Yuwang Beppu naturally can't be compared with the Yuwang Wangfu in the eastern capital, but because it is the prince of Yuwang in order to marry the aunt of the new moon, the newly-built, five courtyards, originated from his aunt, once said that he was going to give birth to four children, one child and one courtyard, the couple lived in one courtyard, and there was no more.

When I was a child, when my aunt talked to Xinyue about it, her face was still crimson, and she was as shy as a little woman. Now, the main courtyard of Beppu, there is no master, the new moon is coming, Yao'er also followed her step by step, the two walked to the main hall, the hall is still the same as when the new moon walked, the tablets of the prince and the aunt are placed on the table of the eight immortals in the main hall, the tribute is fresh and new, the tablet is clean, and the desktop is tidy, so it seems that the attendants in the house are not lazy.

In the dream, until he woke up, the new moon had never stepped into this mansion half a step again, so these two statues had never seen each other again. The waiting grandmother handed over the futon, and the new moon took off the cloak on her shoulders, took the incense lit by the grandmother, inserted it into the incense burner properly, and finally knelt in front of the tablet with her hands together.

Yao'er did the same, kneeling on the right side of the new moon, and the new moon felt that it was dark on the left, it was Shan'er, and the three of them knelt together in front of the tablet of Shizi and Xu.

I only heard the new moon read, "Father, mother, and daughter-in-law Xu have returned from the Eastern Capital and are here to pay a visit." ”

"Father, mother, daughter Shan'er..."Shan'er paused, and Yao'er immediately followed, "Daughter Yao'er..."

"I'm here to see my parents."

In this way, it can be regarded as a kind of etiquette to go back to the house, the three of them stood up, Xinyue looked at the two sisters on the left and the right, in appearance, there is no difference, and in temperament, Yao'er is smart, with a pair of watery eyes, and Shan'er, the clothes and accessories are not tacky, very elegant, and the long bun is only combed by a married woman.

The three of them went to the courtyard of the new moon to drink tea, and Kong Mao also talked with Rong Han in the front yard.

Crescent Moon is the person who is most familiar with the other courtyard, and she has lived here since she was a child.

Shizi and his aunt only had three children, and there were four courtyards for the children, and the place where Xinyue lived now was prepared by Shizi for the couple's fourth child, although Xinyue was not the youngest of the group, but she was the last to join, but she still lived in these courtyards. Shizi is a funny and gentle person, like Kong Mao who is drinking tea outside, when he first saw Xinyue, Xinyue held a piece of apricot cake in his hand, stained his pale gray robe, Xinyue was also sat on the ground, Shizi picked up Xinyue, held it in his arms, and coaxed Xinyue until he laughed out loud. But because he went back to change his clothes, he was late for His Majesty's summons, and was reprimanded by His Majesty, knowing this, Xinyue asked his aunt to lead him to make amends to Shizi, but Shizi bought new, hands-free cakes on the street for Xinyue to eat.

"I'm just asking if your grandfather and two uncles are okay, what are you laughing at?" Shan'er put down the teacup in her hand, and Xinyue looked at the bowl of her kiln with some distress, "You can lighten it, this is my good tea set." ”

"Isn't it just two clay pots, fixed kiln?" As she spoke, Shan'er picked up her teacup, checked it twice, and put it down again, but this time it was very lightly put down.

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel like when they were children, Yao'er interjected, "Grandfather and the two uncles are very good, the eldest brother is also very good, Sister Nanyin is also very good, and Guan'er is also very good, you can eat a whole bowl of rice in one meal." ”

"Yao'er, you take your sister Shan'er to your room to rest for a while, and I will settle down too." Xinyue looked at the things in her room, and she went to the eastern capital to pack up the things, and she was going to clean them up again.

After sending the two sisters away, Xinyue turned around, looked at the courtyard that was busy again, and beckoned to "Mrs."

"Hao'er, you took my post to the palace and said that I want to ask to see the Queen Mother tomorrow."

"Madam, we have just come back, and we will go to see the Queen Mother, will it not be good?" Feng'er's journey is not so smooth, she sees the new moon is the same, always holding a string, and now even when she arrives in Jinling, she is still like this.

Crescent Moon smiled, then collapsed the corners of her mouth and said, "Go"

Feng'er didn't say anything, so she just nodded, "Yes, the slave will go now." ”

"Take Fei'er, let her see and see."

"Yes," she bowed and bowed.

Xinyue sat back in her original position, looking at the two cups of tea still in front of her, Xinyue said to the maid next to her, "Clean it up"

"Yes" immediately stepped forward and the two little girls with neat hands and feet cleaned up the tea cup in front of Xinyue, and served her a new cup of tea.

Tea is the first month, in winter, Jinling often drinks frosted tea, the new moon looked at the pale tea soup, and put it aside, refusing to move again.

Lunch is set up in the flower hall, because they are all family members, so men and women sit in the same room and sit separately.

"The banquet is just a casual banquet, please forgive me for the inconsiderate hospitality" Xinyue raised her glass and said to a few people.
