Chapter 111: The Li Family's Banquet

The winter in Hexi is very cold, and the wind blows on the face like a knife, and people can be frozen into ice hammers when they stay outside the house for a long time.

Tan Yin is very uncomfortable, she is wilted and has no energy, she can't eat and sleep.

Honeysuckle also made a joke, she saw that Tan Yin couldn't eat, and she was nauseous and vomiting, thinking that she was pregnant, and excitedly asked someone to tell Yang Che.

Yang Che had been training at the horse farm and had not returned for nearly two months, but he hurried back that day.

Yang Che was overjoyed and looked into the room, hugged her, and kept touching her belly, Tan Yin understood what was going on, and then she knew that this girl had made a big oolong, and she was laughing for a while.

Throughout the winter, Tan Yin was good for three days and bad for three days, sick seedlings, it is not a disease to say that she is sick, but she is not sick, people are always unhappy, and she is really sad to endure the winter.

Yang Che often comes back for a long time, and he leaves after a few days, and every time he comes back, Tan Yin always has to cheer up, for fear that he will worry about himself.

Honeysuckle couldn't help muttering a few words, "Master Hou is really, he was so far away in Yingzhou at that time, and he traveled hundreds of miles to come back to see you." Now in Liangzhou, no matter how far the racecourse is, it will only be one or two hundred miles, and I won't come back to see you, this marriage has been less than a year! ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, you girl! He is a general, he can't help but train his troops, so he has been with me in the house! Don't spread that word to the outside world. Tan Yin reprimanded.

Honeysuckle saw that she had lost weight, and she couldn't bear to talk about it anymore.

Finally got through this difficult time, and it was another spring after the New Year.

Yang Che was busy with the affairs of the garrison and cavalry, and he did not return for many days.

This night, the spring thunder shook and Tan Yin was awakened in the middle of the night. I couldn't sleep anymore for a long time, so I simply sat up.

When I was a child, I was very afraid of thunder, and my parents always held her in their arms to comfort her, but now that she has grown up and is thousands of miles away from home, she is no longer afraid of thunder, but the harmony of the family can never be forgotten anywhere.

The spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River is endless, and the osmanthus cake made by my mother is very soft and glutinous, and the trace of osmanthus on it bites into the mouth, and it is sweet as if it has penetrated into the heart.

But her father would take a big net and let her take a small net to the small river that overflowed after the rain, and teach her to seal the surroundings with mud, leaving only one exit, and covering her with a net underneath, and in a short time she would see the fish tumbling in the net, revealing its silvery belly.

She and Honeysuckle giggled and caught the fish and put it in the small bucket, the fish slipped on the ground, and it was still swimming, and Honeysuckle hurriedly went to catch it again, but accidentally slipped and was covered with mud. I went home and cooked a pot of fish, it was so delicious!

In the spring, her mother will take herself to see the country opera, people always leave the best position to her, other children envy her, talented and beautiful, Wu Nong softly, the slender and soft figure of Hua Dan, throwing out long water sleeves, just like the ribbon on the body of the Dunhuang Feitian.

The rain is tight and slow, and so is the spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

It rained for several days, and the sky finally cleared and the sun finally came out.

Tan Yin and Honeysuckle packed their winter clothes in the room and prepared for the change of seasons.

Honeysuckle saw Tan Yin open the beautiful pale green pleated skirt and put it in again, which was a pity.

Tan Yin saw her distressed little face, and flicked her head with a smile, "Okay, okay, don't put it away, I'll wear it at home, and I'll show you if it's good to wear it." ”

Honeysuckle glanced at his lips and said, "I don't want to look at you, you better wear it for Master Hou!" He definitely liked it. ”

Tan Yin pretended to be angry and said, "You're making fun of me again." ”

Honeysuckle nodded proudly, "As long as the Hou Ye likes it, go out and wear those clothes that look like the red of the rooster's crown!" ”

The silk material packed up by honeysuckle has a strong color and is completely different from the elegant style of Jiangnan. There are still a lot of materials in the house, Yue Niang said that she would make a few clothes for her, saying that most of the spring clothes she brought from her hometown could not be worn, and that style was not fashionable here.

Tan Yin understood the meaning of Yue Niang's words, and Yang Che's wearing a linen cloth did not affect his reputation as a war Buddha. Speaking of the words of the Master of Congjug, there are now more and more people who call him a Buddha. But I don't have that confidence, I can be Mrs. Hou by wearing a beggar's clothes.

The weather was fine and the spring was charming.

The Li family in Liangzhou invited Tan Yin to be a guest, they were the Li family, and Yingzhou was a side branch. After Li Yunzhu arrived in Liangzhou with the army, he was like a fish into the sea, and he had a very close relationship with his family. The Li family also hopes to find out through her the temperament and habits of Yang Che, the first important member in Hexi.

The Li family is located in the north of the city, with excellent feng shui, sitting in the north and facing south, with a mountain behind and a river in front. The tribesmen gathered and lived for miles. The house is carved and painted, which is very magnificent.

After the guests greeted each other, they started to make a family routine, and Mrs. Li was in her forties. Tan Yin chatted with the ladies for a while. She is not the kind of person who is good at dancing with long sleeves, and there are not many common topics with these ladies and nobles.

Unlike Mrs. Li, talking to Mrs. Zhang about the color and luster of pearls is divided into several grades, talking to Mrs. Zhao about the needlework of Hunan embroidery and Shu embroidery, and Tan Yin can also say a few words of poetry.

Fortunately, with Yue Niang by her side, Tan Yin coped with it decently, otherwise she would have been arranged to set up a shelf and ignore people.

A few people talked about the things in the city, and I don't know which one mentioned Chana, "Oh, that orchid looks like a demon, and when you glance at it, the man has no soul, I heard that I don't know how many men want to be guests in the curtain!" ”

"Hehe, that girl's eyes are high, how can ordinary people look at it."

"Then who can she look at?" Someone asked.

"It's just a few left." The man glanced at Tan Yin.

Women all over the world are the same, no matter how expensive their status is, they all like to talk about their parents' shortcomings, and their greatest pleasure is their greatest pleasure. A few people chatted a lot, and Tan Yin said a few words in harmony.

……

After sitting for a while, Honeysuckle accompanied Tan Yin out to change clothes, and when she went, she was guided by a maidservant, but when she came back, it was crooked, like a maze, and she couldn't find the way.

After walking for a while, I found a courtyard, and I was just about to pass through the moon gate, but I saw two people talking about something, at this time, I really didn't leave or stay, and when I looked at it, it was Li Yunzhu and Li Xiangrong, and the two hurriedly hid in the shade of the tree.

"I told you that she looks average, so you can believe it! One of our Li family's maids looks better than her, and I don't know where she got her blessings. It was Li Yunzhu's voice.

"But the Hou Ye married her after all." Li Xiangrong said calmly.

Li Yunzhu showed a disapproving look, "He is already in the first rank, it is impossible for him to really marry a good Qinglou woman, and he does not need to marry the official eunuch's family." ”

"But he's not young, others at this age, children can go to soy sauce, he is going to get married after all, there just happened to be such a person, although it is just a small jasper, but fortunately, the family background and people are innocent, and they are also close friends of teachers."

"But I heard that when she first got married, Master Hou was very good to her." Li Xiangrong analyzed.

"For people like Hou Ye, there is always respect for the wife of the hair. She was a newcomer and a newlywed, and he couldn't snub her. But after a long time, it faded. ”

"He had been training in the horse farm all winter, so he came back and made a joke, thinking she was pregnant, so he hurried back, who knew that he was lying about the military situation, but he was upset."

Li Yunzhu looked at the sister of the family who didn't talk much, Li wanted to be beautiful and colorful, and she was outstanding, and she had very high vision and expectations for her future husband.

"I think she looks delicate, not an active person, and she doesn't have the insight and means of Mrs. Yipin, these things are all handled by Yue Niang for her. His family background is not good, he has no one to rely on, and he depends on the favor of the Hou Ye. ”

"The most important thing for her now is to give birth to a son to consolidate her favor, otherwise after a long time, if a newcomer enters the door, in case she falls out of favor, it will be even more difficult to have an heir."

Seeing that Li Xiangrong lowered her head slightly and said nothing, she continued: "Xiangrong, if you still have that thought, plan as soon as possible." I'm your sister, do I always think about the Li family and you, or are you still worried about her. ”

"I'm not worried about this lady, I'm worried about whether Master Hou has this mind."

Li Yunzhu chuckled, "I want to be Rong, no one can match you in doing things for people, but you don't know anything about men." They have been married for a year, and if it takes another half a year, there is no news about this lady's stomach, and the Hou Ye will not wait long. Will a man like Yang Che still guard her for the rest of her life? ”

"She is not accustomed to water and soil, her body is weak, in the end, she is not as healthy as the girl here in Hexi, can she give birth, will the man still think that he has more sons? Besides, men love beauty, green waist and Chana are all stunning beauties, how can he look at this kind of small jasper, you see that she can't even hold down the set of clothes on her body. ”

"Dazhao has just captured Erzhou, they intend to use the entire Hexi, and they need the support of our families, and you are so beautiful and capable, who else in Hexi can match you? In public and private, what is he unwilling to do. ”

"But she's in front of me." Li Xiangrong's calm tone finally revealed a trace of unwillingness.

"And the concubine is the two big ends, whoever comes first and who is the next is just on the face, they are all grandchildren, and the children born are all grandchildren, in the final analysis, it depends on who the Hou Ye favors the most, and he has to catch his heart."

"We're out for a while, it's time to go back." Li Xiangrong did not answer positively.

Tan Yin looked at the figures of the two in the distance, and remembered Li Xiangrong's sentence in front of the Chengqing Pavilion, "Zhenwei husband also." ”
