Chapter 44: Birth
After visiting Rong Hua, Shen Xun and Shen Wenshui stayed in Kyoto for more than ten days, and then resigned and returned to Suzhou.
In the past ten days, Shen Xun invited Rong Yu several times and asked her to travel, but Rong Yu politely declined.
Although she is called Shen Xun's "little cousin", she is actually not a serious relative.
Only by staying away from him as in her previous life can she reduce the impact on his life.
She deliberately avoided him for more than ten days, but she couldn't avoid it anyway on the day of farewell.
On that day, Rong Heng and Xiao Shen instructed Shen Xun to be careful on the return journey, and to report safety after arriving home, and the sons and ladies of the Rong Mansion also said a few auspicious words such as "smooth return", and Shen Wenshui asked Shen Xun to board the car.
Shen Xun saluted again and bowed to everyone in the Farewell Mansion one by one.
This time, he said to Rong Yu with a straight face: "Third cousin, cherish! ”
Rong Yu replied sincerely: "Little cousin, cherish! ”
There was a bit of amazement in my heart......
Shen Xun was straightforward, if it weren't for the fact that she was worried about affecting his future, so she didn't dare to live closely with him, they might have a good friendship.
She only hopes that he can sail the blue sea as he did in his previous life......
……
After that, the major events that happened outside were the same as what Rong Yu had experienced in his previous life: the emperor changed the name of the year to Youning, and issued an edict that the whole country should not be allowed to marry for one year......
The hypocritical Wei Fuzi also resumed class, and Rong Ying and Rong Lian still went to school with her.
Rong Yu has nothing to do and spends his days idle......
Because, she is still confined to her feet......
Fortunately, she now has a girlfriend Shao Nanyan, who often comes to visit her, talk to her, and tell her the news of Rong Hua.
She was grateful to Shao Nanyan in her heart, so she personally stared at the small kitchen and prepared all kinds of exquisite snacks for entertaining Shao Nanyan.
Shao Nanyan came more diligently......
In the Shao Mansion, the Guan family was still stubborn, so the old lady Shao took Rong Hua with her, under the pretext of asking Rong Hua to serve and save her from being treated by the Guan family, and allowed her to return to Suzhou to visit relatives after the New Year.
Guan didn't dare to disobey Mrs. Shao's wishes, and still wanted to make a stumbling block, so she insisted on sending an old lady by her side to accompany her, and Mrs. Shao confronted Guan a few times, and finally decided that Shao Nanyan would go with Ronghua.
Rong Yu took Shao Nanyan with her secretly......
Shao Nanyan responded happily.
Rong Yu was quite upset in his heart.
Shao Nanyan sincerely regards her as a friend, but she is not an eight-year-old child, and she has befriended Shao Nanyan from beginning to end......
Although she did all this to protect Rong Hua, her impure mind is impure her mind.
She thought that if Shao Nanyan needed her in the future, she would go to the soup and do whatever she wanted......
……
Autumn goes to winter, and before I know it, it is the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the eve of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Rong Yu's birthday.
Because her birthday coincided with the time when the house was busy preparing for the New Year's Festival, except for the first year, the rest of the time was simple, often eating a bowl of longevity noodles in the morning, and when the family had dinner in the evening, her parents and siblings each gave her a few words of greetings and gifts.
This year is the same as in previous years.
After asking for good morning, Rong Yu respectfully begged Rong Heng to allow her to go out for a day, Rong Heng saw that she had recently behaved her duty, and remembered that it was her birthday, so he agreed.
Seeing this, Xiao Shen privately gave Rong Yu a silver ticket of fifty taels, and Rong Yu took a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his private treasury.
Mama Wu happily waited for her to change into a new silver gray rabbit fur dark pattern begonia cotton robe, combed two symmetrical buns, and then wrapped a silver hair chain full of begonia flowers and jade pendants on each of the two buns.
After getting dressed neatly, Mama Wu nodded again and again: "You have lost some weight recently, and your eyes are getting bigger and bigger......"
"It's a pity that you shouldn't wear bright colors this year, you have such a good complexion, and it's best to wear red......"
Rong Yu smiled, ordered the orb and went out with her.
When I walked to the second gate, I happened to meet Shao Nanyan, who came to look for her......
Rong Yu happily called her: "Nanyan! ”
She deliberately brought enough money today, and planned to invite Shao Nanyan to eat in Guiyun Tower.
Shao Nanyan was also very happy: "Can you go out today?!" ”
Shao Nanyan came to Rongfu on horseback, so Rong Yu ordered a small servant to take care of the horse, and then pulled Shao Nanyan to board the carriage of Rongfu and asked the coachman to go to Guiyun Tower.
Shao Nanyan asked Rong Yu, "But your mother sent you to Guiyun Tower to buy snacks?" ”
"Guiyunlou's New Year's Eve is famous, my third aunt likes to eat, and I ask my third brother to buy ...... every year."
"However, you went out late, and there are probably a lot of people queuing up in front of the dim sum stall at this time......"
Rong Yu shook his head at Shao Nanyan with a smile and said, "I'm not here to buy dim sum......
"I'll invite you to Guiyun Tower for dinner!"
Shao Nanyan let out an "ah" and said, "No, no, no......"
"A meal in Guiyun Tower will easily cost dozens of taels of silver......
Rong Yu grabbed Shao Nanyan's arm: "Nanyan, I haven't been out for three months, and I haven't had a place to spend my monthly money for these three months......"
"Let's be extravagant today and spend all this silver!"
Shao Nanyan refused again: "No, you have ...... of those silvers."
Rong Yu let go of Shao Nanyan's hand and said angrily: "If you refuse again, you will have a relationship with me......"
Shao Nanyan hurriedly said: "I'm not having a relationship with you......"
Rong Yu said with a smile: "Since you don't have a share, you will go to Guiyun Tower with me for dinner!" ”
Shao Nanyan: ......
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Guiyun Tower, and Shao Nanyan jumped out of the carriage lightly and ran away with a smoke......
Rong Yu looked at the orb in surprise.
Could it be that Shao Nanyan didn't want her to break the bank, and he couldn't persuade her, so he ran away?
Baozhu stood on tiptoe and looked around, pointed to a place in the crowd of people queuing in front of the dim sum stall in Guiyun Building, and said to Rong Yu: "Miss, Miss Fourth is there!" ”
Rong Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
She was about to squeeze into the crowd with Baozhu to find Shao Nanyan, Shao Nanyan had already squeezed out, and she was followed by a young man in black......
Shao Beicheng ......
Shao Nanyan jumped to Rong Yu's side and said, "Sister Yu, this is my third brother, let him invite us to eat in Guiyun Tower!" ”
Rong Yu: ......
Rong Yu thinks that Shao Nanyan is really a talent!
The three of them sat down in a private room on the second floor, and the waiter served a menu book.
Rong Yu didn't want Shao Beicheng to break the bank, so he only clicked "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond".
The name of the dish in Guiyunlou is full of elegant names covered by clouds and mist, and this "moonlight on the lotus pond" is actually a pork rib corn root soup.
Shao Nanyan said: "Sister Yu, you don't have to save money for my third brother!" ”
Then he didn't look at the cookbook, and ordered the dish proudly: "A roast duck, prawns drizzled in oil, eight treasure rabbits, fried quail, roasted venison......"
The waiter looked at Shao Nanyan and wanted to remind her that these were not the names of Guiyunlou's dishes......
Shao Beicheng looked at the waiter.
The waiter silently shut his mouth.
Rong Yu stopped Shao Nanyan and said: "Enough!" ”
Shao Nanyan smiled: "Don't worry, I won't waste it with me!" ”
Rong Yu shook his head with a smile, handed the menu book to Shao Beicheng, and said, "You haven't ordered yet." ”
Shao Beicheng returned the menu book to Rong Yu and said, "You order, I can eat anything." ”
Rong Yu absentmindedly flipped through the list of names and asked casually, "I don't know what the third prince likes to eat?" ”
Shao Nanyan said: "My third brother likes to eat meat!" ”
Rong Yu looked at Shao Beicheng, he didn't deny it.
She added charcoal-grilled lamb chops and stewed beef three fresh pots.
Shao Nanyan praised Rongyu: "You always think about others......"
Rong Yu poured Shao Nanyan a cup of tea and said, "Drink tea." ”
She's not thinking about others......
She is ashamed of Shao Beicheng......
Before the waiter served the dishes, Rong Yu asked Shao Beicheng: "I heard that the third prince is going to Tongcheng after the New Year?" ”
Shao Beicheng let out a "hmm".
Rong Yu looked at him seriously: "You are young, you have to be awarded the title of general, you have to bear heavy responsibilities, Han people, Liao people, Kyoto, Tongcheng, court, army, I don't know how many people are watching your every move......"
"Unpredictable, remember, don't trust others......"
Shao Beicheng looked at Rong Yu fixedly.
Rong Yu lowered his eyes.
Even if it seemed a little abrupt for her to say this at this time, she had to say it.
Shao Nanyan looked at them suspiciously, feeling that something seemed wrong......
After the three of them had eaten silently, Shao Beicheng settled the bill, and they walked out of Guiyun Tower.
In front of Guiyun Tower, there are still many people queuing up to buy New Year's snacks.
Rong Yu looked at Shao Beicheng and thought of what Shao Nanyan said, he would buy this New Year's snack for the lord of Xuanning every year.
He was the purest and most glorious boy she had ever seen in her two lives......
Losing such a good child, Lord Xuanning must be very uncomfortable......
That's why in the previous life, the county lord of Xuanning hated and hated her like that......
Xuanning County Lord......
Rong Yu's heart moved, and he proposed to Shao Nanyan: "Nanyan, let's go to the photo gallery to paint a portrait, right?" ”
"The eighteenth year of the women's college has changed, and we will not be what we are at this time next year......"
Located on this street, the photo gallery is one of the most famous portrait galleries in Kyoto, and the paintings created by the artists are highly skilled.
Shao Nanyan responded with a smile: "Okay! ”
She raised her head and said to Shao Beicheng: "Third brother, you go back first!" ”
Rong Yu thought for a while, and said to Shao Beicheng: "Third son, you go to Tongcheng, I don't know when you can return to Beijing again......
"The county lord will always miss you......"
"Why don't you go and make a portrait of your old lady and the county lord's mother......"
Shao Beicheng looked at Rong Yu and replied, "Okay! ”
The three of them walked to the photo gallery, and Shao Nanyan took the lead in walking into the store.
Rong Yu was about to walk in with her, when Shao Beicheng whispered to her, "Thank you!" ”
"I ...... Still in the filial piety period......"
Rong Yu looked up at Shao Beicheng, his eyes full of puzzlement.
Of course she knew, he was in the filial piety period......
Why did he say this to her all of a sudden?
