Chapter Forty-Six: Late Days

In the late days, the rivers and mountains are beautiful, and the spring breeze is fragrant with flowers and plants.

The spring is bright, the breeze is blowing, the flowers are delicate, the grass is fragrant, and the world is fragrant in April, which is a good time to travel.

On the waterside of Beijing and Fen, talented and beautiful, the flow of people is like weaving, and many people in Lufu will naturally not live up to this good spring.

Mrs. Lu's mother and daughter greeted the ladies and ladies they met from time to time, and it seemed that all the people who went to Beijing had come today, and there were cheers and cheers in the crowd from time to time, and everyone knew which famous Miss Gongzi was coming.

A river of spring water, flowers bloom, willows spit green. There have long been shrewd merchants who have erected sheds one by one, stretching for miles, and there is no end in sight. There are those who sell wine and food, some who sell pastries, some who sell jewelry and clothes, and some who sell children to play.

The good men of Zhao Zhao or Qi Yuxuan are proud to pull out the mountains and cover the world, or chant poems to make a chapter for export. There are also beautiful girls who are slim and elegant, with flying skirts, coquettish laughter, fair ladies and gentlemen, attracting countless men to love. The children ran to release the paper kite, accidentally fell, and the mother hurriedly picked it up, just wanted to blame and immediately coaxed when she saw the crying nose. High-nosed and blue-eyed gentiles shout and sell large South Sea pearl gold eaters the size of thumb caps, and slender orchid danglu sells wine and dances to attract customers.

The country and the people are safe, live and work in peace and contentment, but that's it.

In addition to visiting the world-famous Fenshui shore and enjoying the beautiful spring, Tan Yin and Yanmin have more important things.

Yan Ting asked Zhao Xu and Gu Zhijun to meet today, and Yan Min also invited Wang Mingzhu to travel with him today, Li Zheng and Zhang Ziqing were originally going to come, but yesterday they temporarily said that they were going to meet their fellow villagers and Shangguan today, but they couldn't come, although Tan Yin was a little disappointed, she also knew that they were now at a critical juncture.

Not long after, I saw Gu Zhijun hurrying over in a brand-new royal blue round-necked narrow-sleeved robe, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, his body was vigorous, and he was quite informal, and he looked like he had carefully cleaned up today.

After meeting the ladies and ladies, they chatted together as they walked, walking and walking, several ladies and maidservants pulled at the end, Yan Ya Yanmin Lu Qing walked in front, and Yan Ting, Gu Zijun and Tan Yin lined up in the back.

Today's girls are all dressed up extraordinarily beautifully, and Yan Min is particularly beautiful in a yellow dress, neither as dignified as earthy yellow, nor as tender yellow as duckling down, but as yellow as ginger. It was the cloth that Yan Ya personally mixed and dyed, and the most famous tailor shop in Hangzhou cut it, and Yan Ya embroidered a silver cloud pattern with her own hands as a gift on Yan Min's birthday. Yan Min's skin is delicate and snow-white, his body is tall, and he likes this dress very much, and he specially wears it today, which attracts people to turn around and stop from time to time.

Rao is a man who doesn't pay much attention to women's clothing, and when he sees someone looking back from time to time, when a little girl comes over and asks where to buy this shirt, he also understands. Gu Zhijun was born in a merchant, he also has a cloth shop at home, and he has five sisters, and there are many aunts, who can't compose poems and can chant, he looked at Yan Min's ginger clothes and smiled, "Miss Yan Ya is really ingenious. ”

Tan Yin noticed that Gu Zhijun's eyes looked at Yan Ya in front of her from time to time, and when she found out and pretended to be nothing, Yan Ting and Tan Yin ignored and smiled, and understood.

"Why didn't Zhao Xu come over today." Tan Yin asked curiously.

"Don't you know? Today, several adults invited fellow villagers to a banquet, and Zhao Xu went to the banquet. Gu Zijun replied.

Yan Ting said, "Then why don't you go?" ”

"Oops! Brother Yanting warmly invited, a good spring, such as beautiful scenery, BMW fragrant cars, talented and beautiful, which is like those old men, it is still interesting here, there are Brother Yanting, there are two girls Yanya Yanmin, and our lovely little Ayin......" said and looked at Tan Yin.

Zhao Xu is quite literate and mature and steady, and he calls Tan Yin a Tan girl who is polite and polite. And Tan Yin and Gu Zhijun feel much more familiar with each other. At the beginning, Gu Zijun called Miss Ayin, Tan Yin shuddered when she heard it, goosebumps fell all over her body, and ordered him to either call Ayin with Yanting, or call Miss Tan, but Gu Zijun was disrespectful and didn't see anything else.

"You don't want to be recommended?" Tan Yin asked.

"I've been there twice, and I should recommend it, and I won't recommend it if I don't go once!" Gu Zijun said quite freely.

Yan Ting said with a smile: "I have heard that the lords of the court and the central government have held frequent banquets recently, and in addition to having the intention of making friends with scholars, they also have other thoughts. ”

Shangjing is the center of Jokhang, and all kinds of information are transmitted extremely quickly. Officialdom rules, young Jinshi need to be promoted by high-powered adults, but now it is not as good as in the past, the prince is not a conservative generation, his henchmen sit in a high position at a young age, he likes to promote young officials, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, once the new emperor ascends the throne, who will carry whom is really hard to say. Compared with students, Banzi is naturally much more stable and stable.

Gu Zhijun bowed slightly, "Brother Yanting is well-informed, but it is mainly aimed at the top three jinshi, and other adults can't look down on it." ”

Yan Ting finally comforted and encouraged, "There is the next one!" Just when it comes to choosing a son-in-law, Brother Zhijun is not inferior to Brother Dongsheng, Brother Zhijun is a talent, taking care of the elders and sisters in the family, and he will definitely be able to love his wife and children in the future. ”

Yan Ting saw that Tan Yin's face was a little pale again, knowing her thoughts, and comforted her in a low voice: "Don't think about it, there are many such gatherings, mainly to win over Jinshi, but some adults have other thoughts, besides, Li Zheng, you are not at ease?" ”

Tan Yin also felt that she was thinking a little too much, and there was no wind and no shadow. Remembering the main purpose of the day, I put aside my own affairs.

"Speaking of which, Brother Dongsheng and Brother Zhijun are both from big families, so they must have already had a marriage contract!"

"Brother Yan Ting was wrong this time. Since I was a child, my health was not good, and my family did not make a marriage contract for me, and then I traveled with my master for several years, and my health was better, but the marriage contract could not be discussed. When Brother Zhao was young, he told his fortune at home, saying that he could not get married before the age of twenty, and there was no marriage contract. ”

"In a big family, marriage is the top priority, and the handsome brother is the only son in the family, so the elders in the family must have planned for a long time."

Gu Zhijun looked at Yan Ting for a while, and smiled at Tan Yin's eyes looking at him, "I have five sisters, and I have been loved by thousands of people since I was a child, and then I was away with my master for a few years, and I couldn't take care of it at home, but I developed the temperament of making my own decisions in everything." Later, when I came home, the family couldn't control me, and they saw that I was not a fool, so they simply let me go. ”

"I see." Yan Ting nodded.

After walking for a while, the ladies felt a little tired, so they went to the roadside tea shop to rest.

Everyone sat down, drank tea while enjoying the scenery, and talked about some interesting anecdotes about going to Beijing, anecdotes of the young ladies who came and went, and so on.

When Gu Zhijun said that when he was young, he followed the monk master to travel around the world to eat and sleep, and when he ran out of money and worked as a servant in a tavern, Mrs. Tan showed a surprised look; When Gu Zhijun talked about the things he did with his master to help the poor, Yan Ya's smooth face showed a smile, and Gu Zhijun wanted to see it but was embarrassed; waited until Lu Qing asked Gu Zhijun's third sister what her favorite style was; When Gu Zhijun invited everyone to Sanmou Garden to see the most beautiful garden in the south of the Yangtze River, Yanmin dragged Tan Yin to find Wang Mingzhu.
