Chapter 40: The Book of Brocade (I)

It's better that it's still inconvenient to say things in the dark, and when it's dark and the night is late, the root of the bane will be burned, and there will be less turmoil.

"Later, you can bring the purse and send it to the shrine to offer." Yun Zhao specially added, "It was the purse given by the Taoist priest in Changqing Temple that day, and there was a jade pendant in it." ”

Liu Dan was puzzled and said, "The girl should take it with her." ”

"How can the Taoist priest's magic weapon be worn by our girls? Only by serving before God every day can we live up to their hospitality. "The house is very dark, so you have to cut it often." ”

"Does the girl want to write, or do you want to draw a few strokes?"

"Call Yun'er."

Liudan smiled: "You forgot, she went to her husband's." ”

"I should be back now." Yun Zhao picked up the pen and practiced calligraphy on the case, "Don't be taken away by her mother again." ”

"Then I'll take a look."

As soon as Liu Dan came out of the corner gate, he heard chattering in the verandah.

"Mrs. Liu has to save money, and she doesn't say anything about my light, but she has nothing to do." Yun'er cried. "She recognized me, and I was still angry with her, Poria cocos, you say, how can there be such a thing in the world?"

Ruo'er said: "Mrs. Liu is used to her being rampant in the house, and the last time I was angry for you, it was my sister-in-law Xing who came forward, so she gave up." ”

"I'll have 500 wen a month, which is enough for my own food, and it's not bad. The godmother forced me to save Baiwen to buy rouge for her daughter. Phew, my heart and liver are broken. ”

"He pretends to be a person on the surface, and secretly adds oil and vinegar to smear the master. It's a shame that they're still individuals. The old ones are so, and the little ones are even more spoiled. Linlang drove her away, so she left us a little clean, and no one dared to say anything about what was worthy or not. Ruo'er wiped her tears.

Yun'er wiped her tears, "In another three and five years, I will stay away from her, and everyone will be clean." ”

It is not a matter of one or two days for Mrs. Liu to ask for this and that disgust. Hearing them scolding, he was relieved, and walked over quickly.

The two were stunned, and Liu Dan smiled first: "Far away from her, where are you going?" Don't you want to get married? ”

The two of them laughed, and Yun'er said, "How can there be? ”

"Why did you cry so much that your eyes were red and swollen just now?" Ryudan quipped. Yun'er had tears in her eyes, and she wiped and wiped it carefully with a handkerchief.

Ruo'er scratched Liudan's nose, "Count your love to eavesdrop." ”

"That Mrs. Liu is also broken, and she who looks at the latch at night is not the one who checks the night. The girl flatters the good mother-in-law of the king, and she has a good face, so it is difficult for her to serve. Liudan said.

"Hey, as the saying goes: freezing three feet is not a day's cold. Her heart is extremely cold, cold, and no one can resist her temperament. In the long run, it is common to be cold-eyed. Yun'er sneered. On that day, Linlang sent down the princess and scolded them for being old. She didn't sulk secretly in her heart, and beat me in front of the painting Dai. ”

Liudan was surprised, "Is there such a thing?" ”

Ruo'er said coldly: "Hua Dai persuaded a few words, but he couldn't persuade him." Later, when I heard the noise, I took her feather duster before I would give up. ”

Liu Dan was angry and said, "I went back to the girl and asked her to come forward to teach her." ”

"Forget it," Yun'er said: "The girl is getting better at the beginning, and she doesn't like life, we are just maids, and we have a lot of things to do, so don't make her unhappy." ”

"Hey, the girl just said that she wants to offer the jade pendant, I think it's good to give it to you." The jade pendant was stuffed into her hand, "If you really put it in the nunnery or in the temple, it will definitely be stolen." ”

Yun'er shook her head, "Not good." Girl's things, I didn't take them well. ”

"If you keep it, you can take it from me, so it's better to give it to you." Liudan laughed.

She hesitantly put on her sleeve.

Ruo'er smiled: "Don't talk about that, have you heard?" Miss Zhou is going to get married. ”

"Miss Zhou is sixteen years old, but she has not been married for a long time, and now it has finally been decided." Liudan laughed.

Yun'er said: "I heard that it was decided last year, but Mrs. Su has been low-key and silent. ”

Liudan asked, "Which one?" ”

Ruo'er smiled: "The Langzi of the Imperial History." ”

"It's the son of the Qinghe Cui family, although the family has declined, but the prestige of the ancestors is still there, but it is also a good home." Yun'er said with a smile. "In the past, the Han family was also the home of Zhong Ming Dingshi, and the hairpins were used for generations, and they could fill the bed wat board. It's a pity that we were born later and didn't see the head of the family. I heard my mother say that ten years earlier, the Han Mansion was full of friends. The present is not as good as the past, the people are not as good as the old, and there will be days of separation. She sighed.

Ruo'er smiled: "What do we care about that?" At present, Yiyuan belongs to Miss Feng, although it is managed by his wife, he has to return to the girl after all. ”

The wind is getting cooler, and it's not too early.

"Oh, I forgot, the girl is worried that she didn't see you." Liu Dan tugged at Yun'er's sleeve and walked. "At this time, the tears are dry, and the eyes are no longer red, so I just went back to my life."

"You are not like me, you were born in Yiyuan. I saw the changes in my family, and I also saw through the state of the world. Is there anything constant in this world? Sooner or later, it will change. We don't know when. ”

When I went back, I saw that Yun Zhao had fallen asleep at the desk, and he was dreaming of incense.

Once flowing water and falling flowers, pavilions and swamp beams.

"Idle door to the mountain road, deep willow reading hall. Reflecting every day, the clear light shines on the clothes. Pei Xu read this poem.

"Honghui wants to live in seclusion in the mountains?"

As soon as he was studying with a clear heart, he heard his brother's voice. "Big brother," he bowed. "Why are you here late at night?"

"Mother asked me to ask about your family, but I didn't expect you to want to have a secluded household with a trickling mountain path next to you, what else do you ask?" Pei Ji said jokingly.

Pei Xu said bluntly: "I don't need you to ask more about my marriage." ”

"But I want to ask, and I have to ask sentence by sentence." Pei Ji laughed and said: "That day, the prince asked me about the Feng family for no reason, and I said what was going on, it turned out that you were blowing the wind." ”

Pei Xu's face did not change, and asked, "What did the prince say?" ”

"The prince only asked me about Feng Shangshu, and asked me if I knew the son of the Feng family, but he just asked how the Feng family was." Pei Ji said briskly.

Pei Xu knew what he was referring to, "Oh, what else did you ask?" ”

"You really don't know what he's asking?" He glanced at him.

Pei Xu lowered his head and said, "I don't know." ”

He sneered: "Hey, you're still playing tricks in front of me, you turn your eyes, I know what you're thinking." ”

"Don't dare, why does my brother speak disrespectfully?"

Pei Xu was annoyed in his heart, and he had to keep a submissive face.

"Hmph, even the prince protects the media for you, you have a big face." Pei Ji sat down with a solemn face.

He had to bite the bullet anyway, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”

"You get down on your knees first, and I'll ask you more."

Pei Xu was very dissatisfied in his heart, but he fell out with him, Yu Shili disagreed, and he had to kneel down obediently.

"Let you kneel, you really knelt, okay, after the interrogation, everything was asked." He joked. "I only ask you, what did you do in the Feng Mansion a few days ago? Also got into the garden? ”

"No, it's just a greeting on behalf of my parents." Pei Xu said bluntly.

Pei Ji asked again: "Okay, I'll ask you again, I didn't care about my mother a few days ago, but asked the hexagram on the day of Taishi, why is this?" ”

His mouth was very stiff, "Xiao Shao and I have known each other for a long time, and we still need to ask when we visit our best friends?" ”

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Pei Ji smiled and said, "You might as well say that Xiao Shao and I are also old acquaintances." I just have to ask one sentence and I can ask what you ask. ”

He knew that he couldn't fool him, so he only pretended to be deaf and dumb and didn't say a word.

"Fortune telling, what kind of fortune is it? Don't you know these taboos at home? Pei Ji was still dissatisfied: "It's twenty-five, and I haven't taken it seriously, and I don't have a head or a brain." ”

Pei Ji taught people the same as Mrs. Jia, and he was so angry that he couldn't resist it.

He almost kowtowed and begged for mercy, "I know that I am wrong, brother, don't be angry." ”

"Come on, now you are also a member of the Zhongshu House, and if you kneel down again, you will lose my life."

The disdain in his eyes made Pei Xu secretly hate.

"I know it's wrong, please take care of my brother."

"Don't talk about Xiao Shao, then ask, you took a hundred taels of gold and ran to the Ministry of Rites to ask, what's the matter?"

Pei Ji's ears are really smart, and he immediately heard the wind when he just asked.

"The origin of this gold is unknown, the prince asked me to ask."

Pei Ji smiled and said, "I thought you received it privately, so it's over." ”

He hurriedly bowed down to pour tea and served it respectfully. "Please."

"I'm done." Pei Ji seemed to be smiling, and took a sip, "Second brother, you are just a face." ”

He hung his head deeply and whispered, "Brother taught me a lesson." ”

"I will not teach you, nor will I discipline you. The Holy Word can educate you, which turn will it catch me? Now that I'm here, I'm going to have to give you a few words. ”

"It's good for my brother to just say it."

The tea bottomed out, "Pour the tea." ”

Pei Xu slowly refilled the water.

"Zhongshushe, Pei Honghui." He sipped the tea slowly, "To be in your position, not to mention the eight-sided exquisite, even if it is sleek and sophisticated, it is difficult to have both." At this time, it is too inappropriate to drag the old hatred and the new hate. You haven't ascended to the position of prime minister yet. Pei Ji said earnestly: "Bear with it for a while, take a step back, there's nothing bad, don't make trouble in the future." You're only twenty-five, and you have a bright future. It's useless to be angry for a while. ”

Pei Xu listened to his words and became half angry, "What my brother said is that he will be cautious in his own affairs in the future, and he will not worry about his parents and brothers." ”

"I've finally got the hang of it." Pei Ji smiled in his eyes, "Let's talk about marriage." ”

Pei Xu asked: "Marriage events, parents' orders, and matchmakers' words." How does my brother remember this? ”

"That's not even your master's bothering to knock on the side, I came. At that time, I guess you had another dream, but I didn't expect that this time it was finally a decent person. ”

Pei Xu smiled with a smile, "Brother laughed at me." ”

"Fortunately, she is a woman from a wealthy family, and it just so happened that your marriage was eventual. If a few more years pass, you will miss the good years. Pei Ji half-jokingly.

Pei Xu asked: "I don't know what my parents think?" ”

He smiled and said, "You want to go with them, and the adults just happened to fall in love with the girl of the Feng family." ”
