Chapter 141: Cui Ying's Love (2)
Speaking of these, Shen Yan suddenly thought that when Taolin met, it was Cui Min, Qiao Lingfeng and Cui Ying. Thinking about the shouting and throwing stones from the forest, there must be some stories that she didn't know.
And this story is eighty percent related to Qiao Lingfeng and Cui Ying!
Feng Xuan nodded in agreement. After talking about the gossip at this time, she poured a cup of tea and moistened her throat, calming down her beating heart.
This time, Xiaoxing supported his head and sighed.
"It is much better to marry someone than to marry someone's son."
Such a transcendent feeling is wonderful.
To whom you marry is to marry someone. To marry someone's son is to marry a glorious family identity. The gap between the two is not small.
This Miss Cui's choice shocked the world and cut off her back road directly. It's rare for Xiaoxing to see so much and let out a pertinent sigh.
"You can see it."
Shen Yan said flutteringly, but after thinking about it, she felt that this matter was always a little strange.
"How do you hear all this gossip? Miss Cui is also a high-ranking woman, who does she like, how can it be rumored? Could it be that someone in Cui's wants to fix her? ”
Feng Xuan shook his head, and said with admiration in his eyes: "I heard that the young lady directly kicked out the matchmaker sent by Lord Cheng of the household department this morning, and said that she would never marry a pighead. As for Qiao Shilang's matter, I really don't know how it came out......"
Xiao Xing and Shen Yan were both taken aback, and couldn't help but sit up straight and nodded admiringly.
The status of the three aunts and six mothers-in-law is somewhat delicate. Matchmakers are a difficult type of person to provoke. This Miss Cui not only drove out Lord Cheng's matchmaker, but also released such arrogant remarks, she is really a talent!
It's just that a high-ranking family like Cui's has a strict family education, and she completely disregards the face of the two families, and she also ruined her reputation, and the back road is broken.
"Think about it, this Miss Cui may be a broken jar, she just tore her face, and in the future, she will go to a Buddhist temple to be a bhikshuni, and it is better to marry a man who is a pig's head in her own mind."
Feng Xuan agreed with Shen Yan's words.
"Yes. However, Master Cheng of the household department is going to suffer a dumb loss, because there are no three books and six ceremonies for this marriage, it is just a verbal agreement, and it is not a serious marriage contract. What's more, the Cui family still has the virtuous concubine Niangniang in charge, even if the Cui family is wrong, he doesn't dare to make a fuss. It's just that this matter has damaged Miss Cui's reputation after all, and who will dare to come to the door to propose marriage in the future. ”
Feng Xuan said with some regret.
Shen Yan thought of Cui Ying's stubborn posture and bright appearance under the peach forest, and intuitively felt that she didn't care about these vain women.
"The more you talk about it, the more I think someone is deliberately pushing this thing behind it."
Shen Yan tapped his fingers on the table and thought.
Such a thing is a scandal, and the first reaction of the family is definitely to suppress it, rather than just go to the market. What's more, when it comes to girls who have not left the cabinet, they can't be sloppy.
Thinking about it, there are also a lot of entanglements within the Cui family.
……
In the evening, after Xu Jin finished handling political affairs, he invited Shen Yan to go to Chang'an's banquet building for dinner. He specially ordered someone to tell Shen Yan that someone else would attend tonight's banquet.
Spring shirts are not as light as summer shirts, and they are much lighter than winter clothes, and there are more patterns. Because there was a banquet in the evening, Feng Xuan and Xiaoxing carefully chose clothes and jewelry for her, and after dressing up, they went to the front yard to wait for Xu Jin.
The peach-colored long skirt is paired with a string of light-colored jade jewels, and the green silk is all pulled up into a bun, with a few beaded flowers.
Shen Yan also specially made the crystal hairpin today. She stood under the lantern with her jade body raised, and the point in her hair was particularly bright.
Xu Jin saw her back from a distance, and the corners of her mouth curled. A few steps forward, he put on a thin cloak for Shen Yan from behind, tied a knot around her entire body, and said seriously: "Although it is spring, the wind is still strong this night, you better wear more." ”
"Where is it so delicate."
Shen Yan specially wore a long skirt that showed her waist, and she was covered tightly by Xu Jin's cloak before she was stinky for a while, and she couldn't help muttering.
The lanterns are on both sides of the eaves, enveloping the figures of the two together, which is a faint warmth.
Xu Jin saw the long hairpin in Shen Yan's hair early in the morning, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was faint, and he was very satisfied.
The banquet building is in the west of the square, the high-rise building rises from the ground, standing outside, you can feel the bustle and prosperity in the building, the ears come with silk and bamboo music, full of candlelight and colorful clothes.
There are men at the door to greet the guests, which is particularly lively.
Shen Yan put down her nose as soon as she got out of the carriage, and she wanted to sneeze, she tugged at Xu Jin's sleeve, winked at him, and said in a low voice: "Do you smell a smell of rouge gouache?" ”
The smell of this rouge gouache is a mixture of different rouge flavors, which may smell good, but when mixed it is strong and unpleasant.
Xu Jin understood, and said with a low smile: "There are a lot of female relatives here, so naturally there is a bit of rouge gouache taste." Your nose is a slight. ”
The two stood side by side, hearing Xu Jin's words, Shen Yan couldn't help but cast a suspicious gaze, this smell can be smelled by anyone with a nose, right?
……
The group entered the building, and when the guys saw Shen Yan and Xu Jin in their fancy clothes early, they knew that the two of them were either rich or expensive, so they greeted them with sharp eyes, and said with a smile: "Please come in the guest officer." Where are we eating? There are still seats in the hall rooms. ”
"I have friends in Tianyi Pavilion."
Xu Jin said lightly, and the guy reacted immediately, and respectfully waved his hand to lead the way in front.
Tianyi Pavilion is a good wing room, and you have to have money and power to be able to wrap it. Since you are a guest there, you can't be sloppy.
Shen Yan was led by Xu Jin, went up a few flights of stairs and turned a few corners, and stopped in front of the door of a quaint and secluded wing room.
Pushing the door in, my ears were suddenly much clearer, and I couldn't hear the sound of silk and bamboo and the sound of the staggered in the building, nor could I smell the smell of rouge gouache.
Shen Yan felt that his ears and brain suddenly relaxed a lot.
The outside of the wing room is simple, and the inside is also placed in an elegant and clean manner, with six screens and calligraphy and paintings hanging everywhere. Sumptuous food and drinks have been placed on the left and right tables.
And in front of the table on one side also knelt and sat a familiar person.
"Eldest princess, city lord."
Cui Min saw the two come in hand in hand, got up and saluted.
He was dressed in a light blue robe today, embroidered with a circle of green bamboo at the hem of his clothes, full of vitality. There was just the right smile on her elegant face. It is to bow his hand, and he is neither humble nor arrogant.
Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Jin, who was calm on her side, she really couldn't figure out what he was thinking, but she couldn't let Cui Min arch her hands like this, so she smiled and said, "Cui Shilang doesn't have to be polite." ”
Behind him, Xiaoxing and Fengmian closed the door of the wing room and guarded outside.
