Chapter 8: Going Out Again
The next day, Li Ran instructed Qiu Yue to hold the dozen or so books and go straight to the book building.
This time, she simply sat on the wide windowsill of the study building and read, watching Qiu Yue's rapid rotation while reading.
Qiu Yue's sweat came out.
The girl stayed here and didn't leave, but she came out in a hurry, forgot to call a little girl to follow, the location of this study building is biased, and no one in the house has ever come to read any books, there are almost no people around, and you can't find someone who can deliver a message to the old lady and the lady.
Last time, because the little girl only knew that the girl had gone out, and didn't know where the girl went, she was trained by her wife, and she didn't dare to find someone to talk to casually.
Alas, she just wanted to find a random one, but she couldn't find it at this time, and she didn't even have a figure for half a day!
The drip in the corner of the study building pointed to noon, and Li Ran looked up at Qiu Yue, "You go and bring lunch here." ”
"Yes!" Qiu Yue was pardoned, and ran back with her skirt.
It's a chance to talk to the old lady and the lady.
As for Li Ran's sentence mentioning lunch here, she didn't think much about it.
Autumn Moon is back with a disgraced face.
"Girl, this study building is a clean place for reading, writing, and learning, not a place for eating." Qiu Yue lowered her head and said to Li Ran.
"Is this what the old lady said, or is it the lady's words?" Li Ran looked at Qiu Yue and asked.
Qiu Yue's face suddenly turned red, "Yes...... Madame's words. ”
"Where can I eat? Is it possible there? And where? Li Ran pointed to the small pavilion not far away, and then pointed to the stone table and stone bench placed under an osmanthus tree twenty or thirty steps away from the study building.
"That ......"
"You go ask again." Li Ran interrupted Qiu Yue's words.
Qiu Yue's face turned even redder, she opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't say it, and when she lowered her head and turned around to leave, Li Ran stopped her again, "You are a slave in this house, you can only listen to the master's words and do a good job of the master's errand." Therefore, if you should go to report, you should go to report, and if you should go to ask for instructions, you can go generously, and you don't need to hide and hide. ”
"Girl, I'm not...... I ...... "Qiu Yue's embarrassed words can't be said clearly."
"Go ahead." Li Ran waved his hand and looked down at the book.
Qiu Yue came back again, took the two little girls, and put the food in the pavilion a little farther away.
Li Ran ate and continued to read, until she saw that she couldn't see any words, so she took two books and walked back.
Mama Qian and her front and back feet also entered Cuiweiju, saw the salute, and said: Hejian County Wangfu invites the old lady, lady, three ladies and girls to come to the house tomorrow to enjoy the chrysanthemum.
Li Ran looked at Mama Qian, who left after saying something, her eyebrows raised little by little, and it took a while before they fell.
Compared with the last time I sent a message to the palace, the sour taste is still there, but the anger is gone, why is there such a change? It's interesting.
The next day was not early in the morning, but after lunch.
Lunch was a quarter of an hour earlier than usual, and during the meal, Qiu Yue urged twice tactfully, not as clearly as last time.
Li Ran used to eat very fast, but now this small body is very weak, she deliberately slowed down the speed of eating, but because the amount of food on this small body is at most one-third of the previous one, her eating time is still about the same as before, or even shorter.
This kind of eating speed was able to surpass the entire university cafeteria back then, but can it be slowed down here?
Even if she eats slowly, shouldn't she have brought food earlier?
I'm going out today, but I knew about it yesterday.
Alas, she still has such a temper, although she doesn't care about such small details, she still thinks, and she has to think clearly and clearly.
Just like Lin Hui said, she is a person who is extremely stingy, and she did not retaliate, not because she was generous, but because she had no ability or ability.
But she really doesn't care, she just likes to think clearly.
Thinking of Lin Hui, Li Ran was a little stunned.
Lin Jing lured her to death, Lin Hui knew it, if he didn't know, then he didn't want to know......
"Girl, it's getting late." Qiu Yue looked at Li Ran, who was holding a spoonful of soup, and had no choice but to urge it openly.
"Oh." Li Ran put down the spoon and signaled that she was ready to eat.
Qiu Yue hesitated, "Which dress is the girl wearing?" ”
"You have to wear clothes when you go out, don't you? How many clothes do I have to go out? Li Ran asked rhetorically.
Qiu Yue looked embarrassed, "The clothes for going out are ......"
"There's only one set, right?" Li Ran walked to the dressing table, "Then wear that set, there is no rule that you can't wear the clothes you wear again, right?" ”
"Then ......" Qiuyue wanted to say that the outfit was too much, but the word came out, and the words in the back couldn't be said no matter how you thought about it.
Forget it, anyway, the girl is wearing that set of clothes and whatever, and she has even been to the palace.
Like last time, Li Ran waited in the second gate for a while, the third lady, Li Qingrou, held Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Liu followed half a step behind, and Mrs. Liu, followed by a young daughter-in-law in her twenties, came out of the moon cave door together.
Li Ran looked at the young daughter-in-law.
This must be the daughter-in-law of the second Li Qingping, the second grandmother Cao, the clothes on her body are hers, the length is just right, and she is just a little fat.
This second grandmother is really slim, and she is also very delicate, and her actions and demeanor are full of bookishness.
The third lady, Li Qingrou, stared at Li Ran's golden light, and subconsciously sighed and looked at her second sister-in-law.
Li Ran is the first time to see the second grandmother Cao, but the Cao family is not the first time to see her, it is this set of golden cloaks, and it is the second time to see it, the last time it is about far away, it looks good, this time I see it again, why is it so dazzling?
This girl is so calm, she doesn't know what she is wearing? Or are you still calm after you know?
I'm afraid that I know, after all, it is the blood of the royal family, or the real royal nobles that have lasted for more than 400 years, and it must be different from ordinary people.
Mrs. Zhang's face turned slightly pale.
Old Madam Chen frowned, her face was faintly angry, her crutches poked on the ground, and snorted, "Since she likes it, let her wear it." As he spoke, he poked his crutches and helped Mrs. Zhang's hand to get into the car.
The second grandmother, Cao Shixu, helped Mrs. Zhang to get into the car, and the third lady, Li Qingrou, walked back, passed Li Ran, and her fingers scratched Li Ran's stiff sleeves, and sighed meaninglessly.
Li Ran watched the third lady's white and chubby fingers run over her sleeves, turned around, and went to the last car.
The Hejian County Palace's Mansion is not too far away.
Entering the second gate of the Hejian County Palace, Mrs. Cao, the eldest daughter-in-law of the King of Hejian County, helped Mrs. Chen, the mother of the Marquis of Chang'an, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a golden light flashing out of the last car, and the shock was almost unable to hide.
In the palace that day, she was only slightly surprised to see the golden body of the newly returned fourth lady of the Marquis of Chang'an, but today when she saw that she was still like this, Mrs. Cao was not only stunned, but also very speechless.
No wonder my mother thinks that Chang'anhou's family is rich and expensive, and her face is too open-minded, really, she is so bad about this fourth lady, a little more reasonable, she can only feel that the fourth lady is pitiful, this bad practice is the face of the old lady and lady in their house, and Chang'anhou.
can see their old lady and lady like this, but they don't feel shameless at all.
Mrs. Cao is an eight-sided exquisite, and she turned her mind around, and she did not delay greeting Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Zhang, as well as Cao's second grandmother and third lady, Li Qingrou.
"Is the eldest sister better? Did you burn your navel with moxa? "Old Madam Chen first cared about Mrs. Cao's eldest daughter.
"It's really worked, it's much better." Mrs. Cao smiled and was about to accompany her inside, but Mrs. Zhang stopped her with a smile, "What is the difference between our two families and one family?" You're welcome, I'll just wait for our old lady to go in, and let the second daughter-in-law do you a favor here, and your sisters will just talk. Sister Lin is also busy? ”
In the palace of the prince of Hejian County, like their Chang'an Marquis Mansion, there is a son and a daughter who are discussing marriage.
The third son, Huo Wencan, is the best son-in-law candidate in the eyes of Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen, and the youngest daughter, Huo Wenlin, is the best daughter-in-law candidate in the eyes of the two.
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen are committed to marrying the Huo family.
"Not really. The two of us are one family. Mrs. Cao smiled affectionately, "Sister Lin is in Yingfang Pavilion, their little girls are playing there, and the third sister will take your sister to play too, don't be polite." ”
Li Ran stood outside this group of greetings, carefully looking at the second gate of the Hejian County Palace. From the shadow wall carved with unknown allusions, I saw the ancient and tall ginkgo tree, and the golden cinnamon tree on the other corner that was flourishing and blooming.
Houses are easy to build, and ancient trees are rare.
"Let her follow me." Old Madam Chen grabbed Li Qingrou, the third lady who was going to pull Li Ran, and said with a smile to Mrs. Cao: "You also know that this girl is different from the third sister, the third sister is a stupid girl who only knows jokes, but she can't stand her, the third sister goes to play with your sister Lin, don't worry about her." ”
"The old lady is really thoughtful." Mrs. Cao smiled.
Alas, the meaning of these words is not to take this girl as her own family, so she has to remind Sister Lin not to say the wrong thing.
Mrs. Wang and her entourage entered the Moon Cave Gate, and Grandma Cao stayed behind to help.
She and Mrs. Cao are cousins of the same race, and they had a good relationship before they got married, and they got close to each other after they got married, and they were very close.
Mrs. Cao motioned to Grandma Cao Er to wait, beckoned to her confidant girl first, and commanded a few words in a low voice, asking her to hurry up and give the eldest lady Huo Wenlin a wake-up call, as for her mother-in-law, Princess Du, she is much more shrewd than her, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
Second Grandma Cao looked at Mrs. Cao's instructions, and only then took two steps to speak.
"How do you dress like this? I heard it's your clothes? Mrs. Cao pouted into the moon cave door.
When they entered the palace, Cao Er's grandmother didn't go, this was the first time their cousins had met since Li Ran arrived at the Chang'an Marquis Mansion.
"You can't really blame our wife for this." Grandma Cao lowered her voice, "Originally, no one said anything about this dress or not, it was Master Hou, Tete sent someone to send a message to our wife, saying that once she entered the palace for the first time, how many eyes were watching, let Mrs. worry a little more, and what to say about the clothes bought outside, I am afraid that it is not suitable or something."
You also saw her, our three ladies are half a head shorter than her, and they are half a circle round, how do you wear the clothes? I can only find it from me, since the Hou Ye said it, Mrs. instructed me to take out the most valuable clothes, Madame said clearly, the most valuable clothes. ”
Grandma Cao Er bit the three most valuable words heavily.
Mrs. Cao sighed, speechless, and for a moment, she also lowered her voice, "Your wife, this grievance is not small. ”
"This is ......" Second Grandma Cao smiled dryly, "Look at our wife, our ancestor said once that our wife is like that, at first glance, she is a good child."
Since marrying into the Li family, in the past 12 years, he has given birth to three sons, three daughters and six children.
At that time in Rong'an City, our wife was pregnant with the third lady, and after that, ......"
After the words, Grandma Cao Er didn't continue, just spread her hands.
The third lady is the youngest child in their house.
"Alas," Mrs. Cao sighed inexplicably, and her voice was lowered, "I heard our princess say it once or twice, saying that your wife and Hou Ye were childhood sweethearts, husbands and wives in distress, and in the past years, they had a deep relationship. ”
"Childhood sweethearts are real, and couples in distress are also real, fighting together in the rain of guns and arrows. Love, then I don't know, when I got married, it was like now, the Hou Ye was in the front yard, the lady was in the backyard, half a house apart, except for the New Year's holiday, I didn't eat at the same table. ”
Grandma Cao sighed, she heard the old lady next to the old lady say that the old lady treated her like that because she felt sorry for the grievances suffered by her wife.
"When I came back from the palace, our princess sighed for a long time, saying that she had heard of the princess since she was a child, and that she had a fairy-like character, and the princess said that she had never seen the princess, and said that she had heard from our princess that she was a real fairy.
Just look at that girl, to be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, no matter what I thought, I wouldn't have thought that she would look like your Hou Ye and look like that.
After such a fairy-like figure, it's a bit ...... to turn back to your wife again."
Mrs. Cao raised her hand to cover her mouth and coughed lightly.
"Well, it's not. In this matter, I look at what our old lady means, and she complains about the emperor. Second Grandma Cao leaned over to Mrs. Cao and whispered.
"It's also ......" Mrs. Cao was about to speak again, when the mother-in-law's voice came from outside, and another guest came, and Mrs. Cao hurriedly stopped talking to greet her.
