After the ceremony was completed, Chaoyang sat back next to Qingluan, and happily showed Qingluan a pair of golden arms on her wrist: "Look! This is the mother's reward. ”

Qingluan lowered his head, only to see the treasure-inlaid arm on Chaoyang's arm, and suddenly remembered that his treasure-inlaid gold bracelet seemed to have been taken by Xiao Boyan's wife, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Isn't it pretty?" Chaoyang looked at Qingluan nervously.

"Beautiful!" Qingluan nodded hurriedly, "It just matches your dress." ”

Chaoyang's gorgeous dress, which is said to have been embroidered by her own mother, Qian, looks gorgeous and extraordinary, but its stitches are really a little rough.

It is said that Qian's mother's family is a butcher, just because Qian's skin is white and beautiful, and his temperament is also pungent, he was taken by King Xian at a glance and brought back to the mansion to be a concubine.

But because of his humble background, he was favored by King Xian in every way, and gave birth to a daughter, but he could never be canonized as a side concubine, and could only be a concubine who couldn't even get out of the backyard of the palace for the rest of his life.

Therefore, the county lord of Chaoyang did not raise her mother since she was a child, but grew up in the princess's courtyard.

Princess Xian doesn't like her husband who is indifferent in words and deeds and has an ugly appearance, and she doesn't bother to care about his, as long as it doesn't involve the status and interests of her and her sister-in-law, whatever he does, even with it, she never disciplines this concubine very much.

The life and upbringing of the concubine are all taken care of by the nurse, so the county lord of Chaoyang has developed such a freewheeling temperament.

Fortunately, Chaoyang has a pure nature, even if he sometimes acts absurdly and informally, he has never done anything wrong.

Except for that flirtatious beauty.

It's also strange to say, how could the county lord of Chaoyang, who was only fourteen years old at that time, force people to die? It's incomprehensible.

The county lord of Chaoyang raised a smile and said happily: "I won sixty taels of silver today, and tomorrow I invite you and Cousin Wen to go to Jinxiu Building to listen to books." ”

The county lord of Chaoyang is a commodity who can't have spare money in his hand, once he has some silver, he must spend it as soon as possible, as if only in this way can he feel at ease.

Qingluan nodded slightly.

A grandmother quietly reminded behind the county lord of Chaoyang: "County lord, don't say anything." ”

The county lord of Chaoyang glanced at her, and stopped talking.

After the banquet, everyone said goodbye and left the house.

When Qingluan walked out of King Xian's mansion, she saw Xiao Boyan standing in front of her sedan chair.

"Good dogs don't get in the way, get out of the way!" Qingluan said coldly.

Xiao Boyan looked at her lips with a smile, then turned to her left side of the neck, raised his eyebrows and said, "Jianing, if you don't choose what to say to me, believe me or not......"

Qingluan immediately stared at his face vigilantly, and took a few steps back, "What do you want to do?" If you dare to bully me again, I will tell my mother when I go back, you ...... This disciple! ”

"Tell me to go." Xiao Boyan looked at her funny and said slowly: "It's just right, we can also get married earlier." ”

"You're dreaming!" Qingluan was a little angry, stepped forward and pushed him away, and didn't use the jade beads to pick up the curtain, and went straight to open the sedan curtain and get into the sedan chair.

Xiao Boyan watched the sedan chair leave, and pressed his fingers on his chest.

There, Fang just jumped so hard, as if there was a fire slowly burning, burning his whole body, especially when the petite little girl approached, he was almost uncontrollable, and he could only be relieved by taking her into his arms.

What's wrong with you? There has never been such an urgent emotion before.

He closed his eyes and thought back to the soft touch of his lips in the rockery, and his heart softened a little.

It's an amazing feeling.

"Brother, what are you standing here looking at?"

Xiao Boyan turned around and saw his sister Xiao Yanzheng and Fang Qingru coming.

"Master Hou." Fang Qingru bowed to him slightly, and a pair of confused and beautiful eyes looked into his eyes.

Xiao Boyan bowed slightly, turned his face to his sister and said, "You go home first, I still have some things to do." ”

Xiao Yan pursed his lips and said angrily: "Brother, you said yesterday that you would take me and Qingru to Peiyang Lake to pick lotus flowers, why did you forget it today?" ”

Xiao Boyan glanced at Fang Qingru and said softly: "It's too late today, it's better to go tomorrow." ”

Fang Qingru hurriedly smiled: "Tomorrow is the best, it just so happens that Yan Er and I can also prepare." ”

"What else do you need to prepare to pick lotus flowers?" Xiao Yan was angry.

"Who said don't prepare? It's barren, and you have to clean it up before you can enter the lake, and before you enter the lake, you have to arrange a safe boat. ”

Xiao Boyan said, let the little maid bring the horse, pedaled the horse and turned over on the horse, and said to his sister condescendingly: "You are seventeen years old, don't be willful like a little girl." ”

Xiao Yan choked, "Brother......"

Xiao Boyan had already ridden away.

Fang Qingru watched the handsome man ride the horse and drift away, and couldn't help but tremble slightly.

The Eldest Princess's Mansion.

Qingluan was desperately brushing his teeth and washing his face in the bath, but no matter how he brushed, he seemed to be able to smell the smell of that person.

Yuzhu looked at the county lord worriedly, and said guiltily: "County lord, it's all to blame for the maid's imprudentness......

"It's none of your business." Qingluan rinsed his mouth with tea and said vaguely: "Don't tell your mother about this for the time being." ”

Yuzhu nodded, took a towel and tried the county lord's mouth, and looked at the county lord's neck worriedly, "County lord, don't you really want to find an imperial doctor to take a look at your injuries here?" ”

"Alas, this idea of bruises will disappear in two days, if you really call the imperial doctor to come and see, it will be called a joke."

At that time, I am afraid that everyone in the capital will know that she Wei Qingluan was bitten on the neck by a dog.

Qingluan touched his neck, but it still hurt a little.

This damn Xiao Boyan! The roots of her teeth itched with resentment when she thought about it.

Tomorrow, I want to go to Jinxiu Building with the county lord of Chaoyang, and I have to find a scarf to wrap my neck.

Alas, forget it, let's wear a high-necked beard suit, which will also save people from looking weird.

At this time, Ziyu returned from the outer courtyard.

"County Lord, the steward of the outer courtyard came back and said that Miss Li Lan is really sick, it is said that she has a cold, and she is coughing badly, and the maid has already sent some supplements."

Qingluan said strangely: "Li Lan's body bones look quite strong, how can you say that you are sick?" ”

Ziyu whispered: "The county lord doesn't know, according to the steward who came back, a girl told him that Miss Li Lan was punished by Mrs. Li for kneeling for several hours because of her disobedience to her mother-in-law, and then she became ill." ”

Qingluan frowned, a little unconvinced, "Li Lan has always been timid and soft, how can she disobey Mrs. Li?" ”

It must have been that the looked at her unpleasantly again, and deliberately found fault with her.

Qingluan didn't know much about the twists and turns in those big families with many wives and concubines before, but since he experienced it, he has known that there are many noble ladies who claim to be virtuous, but they are not as kind as their mothers.

is like the lord of Anping, others look at her for being kind and kind, in fact, she is vicious and really responds to the old saying - the mouth of the green bamboo snake, the needle behind the tail of the wasp, neither of them is poisonous, and it is the most poisonous woman's heart.

"General Li is not in Beijing all the year round, and it is the eldest lady who presides over the feeding in the general's mansion, that is, everyone knows that the eldest lady abuses the concubines and concubines, and outsiders can't control her housework."

At most, she is said to be mean behind her back.

Ziyu helped the county lord change into a snow-white soft satin nightgown, let her sit in front of the rhombic mirror, and continued while using a rhinoceros horn comb to smooth her hair: "Only when Miss Li Lan marries in the future and gets rid of her mother's control, it will probably be better." ”

Qingluan silently looked at herself in the mirror, and saw that the girl in the mirror was so young and young.

Thinking of Li Lan, who is as big as herself, she will marry an elderly squire next year to fill the house, and she can't help but feel a stagnation in her heart.

How could a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl marry an old man who was not a few years younger than her father? Presumably, the stepsons are about the same age as Li Lan, right?

It's a pity that the few people Qingluan knows are quite young, although some of them are not bad, but none of them are very reliable, if Li Lan marries them, I am afraid it will be even more inappropriate.

Alas, it is really difficult to be a woman, and it is even more difficult to be the daughter of a large family.

Men can eat, drink, prostitute and gamble outside with impunity, while women are not even allowed to run horses.

Thinking that she Wei Qingluan hasn't done anything indulgent and wonderful, the reputation is so bad, and even when it is mentioned by those noble ladies, it is used as a negative teaching material for the children in the educator.
