Chapter 54: Shangxiang Encounter
Outside the Yan Mansion, the troika hung the nameplate of the Yan Mansion and was already waiting.
The ladies in each of the three rooms got into the carriage in turn.
Yan Qing, Yan Hai took his two younger brothers to follow behind the carriage on horseback.
"It's kind of out of the house." Yan Zhenzhen lifted the curtain of the small window and looked out, this was the first time she went out since she came to the capital, and it would be better if there was no Yan Jiajia in the carriage.
"Zhenzhen, don't lift the curtains, it won't be good if people see it." Yan Jiajia persuaded softly: "It will make others think that the ladies in our house have lost their decency." ”
"There's no one on the street now, so if she wants to see it, she asks her to see it." Mrs. Yan said: "After a while, this street will be lively, showers, jugglers, all kinds of vendors, you can usually go out, bring a grandmother, bring a girl, and the family will protect you." ”
Doesn't it mean that the door is not out of the door?
Yan Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows, and was about to ask this question, when she saw Yan Jiajia biting her lip and looking at her with a gloomy face: "You look hideous - but you have a toothache?" ”
"Jiajia, if you are not feeling well, I will ask Grandma Lin to send you back, and Zhen Zhen and I can go to the incense." Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Jiajia: "Anyway, you go with me every year." ”
"It's precisely because I accompany my mother every year, if I don't go, I always feel like something is missing." Yan Jiajia's body was crooked, tired of Mrs. Yan's lap: "Mother, you can't be too indulgent, everyone's ladies always show up, it's not good after all." ”
In the past, Mrs. Yan glanced at Yan Zhenzhen with a weak heart: "Zhenzhen, isn't it too bumpy?" Mother holding you? ”
Yan Jiajia covered her mouth and smiled: "Look at me first, don't be jealous, Zhenzhen, my mother likes to hold me the most." ”
Yan Zhenzhen turned her head to look at it, and continued to look out the window: "I'm sixteen years old, what's the point of being crooked in my mother's arms?" You look like you're begging for milk to drink, are you ashamed? ”
"There are no outsiders here." Yan Jiajia raised the corners of her mouth at Yan Zhenzhen where Mrs. Yan couldn't see, and smiled: "Do you want to come crookedly?" ”
"Don't!" Yan Zhenzhen was grateful for Lisuo's words.
Mrs. Yan originally raised her hand that wanted to pull Yan Zhenzhen, stiffened for a moment, put it on Yan Jiajia's shoulder, and said in frustration: "It's all my mother's fault, it would be nice if I got you back earlier, seeing that you are all going to participate in the meeting." ”
"Mother, I don't want to get married, I'll accompany you." Yan Jiajia's little face was shy, tired of Mrs. Yan, and rubbed it unwillingly: "I'm still young." ”
"Relatives? Didn't my mother tell me a few days ago that the marriage matter would no longer force me, and she would be happy with me? Yan Zhenzhen still remembered the lame man Yan Jiajia told her, and immediately glared at Yan Jiajia fiercely: "Especially the messy lame, stupid, stupid, stupid." ”
"Silly child, my mother promised you no longer to give you a casual marriage, but there are priorities, there is always a subordinate, there are several princes, the royal family is old, our grandmother is the eldest princess, our family is also a clan, or the first part of the clan, if there is no family to go out, you have to wait for the prince to choose first, after the prince does not choose, it is the clan, and then it is a family to make their own decisions."
Why does this sound so familiar?
A flash of inspiration flashed in Yan Zhenzhen's mind, and she suddenly remembered where she had heard of it: "Mother, doesn't that mean that we, the girls who have reached the age, are almost like pigs in the village?" ”
"What nonsense, our family's well-born Miss Yanfu, how can she compare with a pig?" Mrs. Yan was so angry and funny, she couldn't give Yan Zhenzhen a face, so she had to scold: "Our young lady of the Yan family, gold is expensive." ”
Yan Jiajia glanced at Yan Zhenzhen contemptuously, anyway, Mrs. Yan couldn't see her expression at this time: "Sister, you have returned to Yanfu now, and you must follow the rules in your words and deeds." ”
"What I'm saying is just the truth, what rules do you want? In the past, when I was in Maverick Village, people looked at boars and sows as this one, and picked the next one. Yan Zhenzhen said: "If my mother doesn't believe it, when will I go to the Grange, I will find a pig herd and ask." ”
Going to Zhuangzi is Yan Jiajia's sore spot, she looked at Yan Zhenzhen hatefully, and finally gently hooked the corners of her mouth: "Mother, you see what kind of life my sister lived in the past, she was mixed with the village husband and swineherd or something, I am a sister, I will definitely take good care of my sister." ”
"It's still your most governor, and it's not in vain that my mother hurts you." Mrs. Yan's eyes were red with emotion: "I don't even know how to make up for the debt I have owed to Zhen Zhen over the years." ”
In the carriage of only three people, Yan Zhenzhen suddenly felt as if a yin wind slowly climbed up her body along her spine, as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake, needless to say, she also knew where this malice came from, she grinned at the corners of her mouth without smiling: "Heh, hehe, you want to eat salted meat dumplings, if I make it in my small kitchen when the time comes, I will send it to you to taste, I thank you." ”
Even if Yan Jiajia did not participate in the salted meat incident, she definitely contributed to it.
A group of people approached from far and near, and the man led by glanced towards the gap in the curtain that was raised, and Yan Zhenzhen lowered the curtain and blocked the man's sight in time.
"Yan Qing, this year, your Yanfu is a step slower, and I see that several of them have run to the front." Rong Jingyu's voice sounded outside the carriage.
Outside is the Five Princes? Yan Jiajia pricked up her ears.
Rong Jingyu, the fifth prince of the Qing Dynasty, arched his hand: "Your Royal Highness, this incense was preempted by my family in previous years, and my mother said that this year I asked someone else's family to rob it, Your Highness, you are ......."
"I'm going to inspect the hunting grounds of Puhua Mountain, I happen to be on the same road with you, I set a table of vegetarian food in Huaqing Tai at noon, you bring your brothers and sisters to eat together, I can't eat so much alone."
"I'm afraid my mother has already found someone to book." Chaorong Jingyu, who was apologetic, apologized: "I'm afraid of losing His Highness's kindness!" ”
"Mrs. Yan is also set for two tables, one table for men and one table for women." Rong Jingyu raised his voice towards the carriage: "Mrs. Yan, don't you mind if I come to intervene?" ”
Mrs. Yan said softly: "It is our honor that His Royal Highness is willing to appreciate the light. Of course, the folk girl didn't mind. ”
Rong Jingyu raised his whip: "Very good, I went to run an errand first, and Huaqingtai will talk to you." ”
"Congratulations to Your Highness!"
"Congratulations to Your Highness!"
Several young masters of the Yan Mansion have given up their hands to say goodbye.
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves outside, Yan Jiajia couldn't get excited, Yao Qingyun and others met her in Huaqingtai, she did everything, but she didn't expect that the five princes would also come to Huaqingtai today, she glanced at Yan Zhenzhen quietly: "Mother, even if it is a separate table for men and women, but it is also under one roof, no matter how noble Your Highness is, it is not good for him to eat with us as a foreign man, right?" ”
