Chapter 34: My Aunt Is Coming
Zhao Heng picked up a peeled longan without changing his face, and ate it slowly, without any change on his face... The old man Shang on the side talked eloquently about Fan Yang's geography and his future planning for Fan Yang
Shang Mingyang didn't know whether the current prince was wearing a mask, or if King Shou, who was with Wen Yuchu before, had been wearing a mask, but it didn't matter, it had nothing to do with her, she was now the grandson of the Shang family, and she was no longer Miss Wen
The sound of the rain gradually became quieter
Zhao Heng put down the longan's husk, and said expressionlessly, "The rain is light, prepare the hat, go to the mansion"
"Yes"
The faces of everyone in the Shang family changed slightly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is looking for something?
Summer thunder rolling, rain all night.
The next day, the courtyard was full of broken flowers and leaves, the bluestone slabs were wet, and the maids and servants were holding brooms and dustpans to sweep the mud.
The old man Shang and the eldest master are still erudite, and the third old man Shang Boyan has not returned home for a night, and the old lady Shang sent the second steward to inquire, and scattered a lot of money, only to know that it seems that the drought in Fanyang was delayed in reporting, and the emperor was quite angry and sent the prince to investigate and solve it thoroughly
Wei and Chen took the children to sit in the old lady Shang's house, Yingying Yanyan is not lively, the three younger brothers in the second room will also come to say goodbye after a while, the originally slightly spacious room is also a little crowded, everyone wants to ask the old lady Shang about the situation, after all, the pillars of the family are walking with His Royal Highness the Prince, and His Royal Highness the Prince is the identity of the Qincha this time.
As he was talking, the doorkeeper walked in and respectfully reported: "Old lady, Mrs. Wei is here with the eldest brother of the Wei family."
Old Mrs. Shang nodded, the Wei family came to propose marriage to Sister Dai this time, it was about her granddaughter, and she couldn't be sloppy: "Invite someone in" There was finally a smile on Wei's face
I saw that as soon as the curtain was lifted, a round-faced woman walked in with a tall and jade young man, and the two were about to say goodbye, but Mrs. Shang immediately asked someone to help her up, and Shang Mingyang looked at the future second brother-in-law carefully
Wei said with a smile: "I can be regarded as looking forward to my sister-in-law's coming" After speaking, I looked at it in a blink of an eye, and there was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy standing on the side, wearing a cyan fine brocade robe, with a fair face, trimmed eyebrows and handsome eyes, and was full of spirit, and the smile deepened a little, turned around and took Li's hand, and said, "Sister-in-law and Brother Wei have worked hard all the way."
Li shook his head with a smile on his face, "It's only a two-day journey, where can it be said to be hard, but the old lady hasn't seen her for two years, and she looks more and more energetic, and she is refreshed" In a blink of an eye, he saw the young man sitting in front of the old lady, and asked tentatively: "Which nephew is this?" ”
Old Lady Shang had a kind face and nodded, "It's this little skin monkey" Li has a rich face, and his speech is pleasing, plus the two families intend to get married, it is even more impossible for Old Lady Shang to always have a straight face as in the past
Shang Mingyang immediately moved his steps, stood respectfully in front and saluted the two: "Say hello to my aunt and cousin."
"Cousin" Wei Zhongyi returned the salute
Li Shi took a small square wooden box from the maid's hand and handed it over: "Good boy, last time your uncle held a banquet, I heard that you went to school in Yunqi Academy, so you didn't come, this grinding stone was bought from Changzhou, I think you and Brother Wei will definitely be able to use it."
Shang Mingyang hurriedly took it, although Changzhou grinding stone is not a top grinding stone, but it is also famous, she happily replied: "Thank you, aunt"
The Li family took Wei Zhongyi to greet each room one by one, and the second sister couldn't see the shyness and generosity of the previous two days and replied, "Uncle, cousin is fine", but when he introduced the second cousin in the third room, Wei Zhongyi's fiery eyes always made Shang Mingyang feel very comfortable.
The Shang family has not yet been separated, because there are more girls, so only the girls are not ranked together, the three-room family only has one and one two young ladies, the eldest lady is still the same, the second lady is still the first one, and the appearance is indeed the first part of the Shang Mansion, not that she looks more beautiful than other young ladies, but most of the daughters of the Shang family are beautiful and lovely, or they have bright eyes and bright teeth, and they are clear and jade, but the second miss of the third room, Shang Ruoyu, is really beautiful and moving, and she is charming
Everyone talked and laughed around for a while, and then they were sent away by the elders, after all, the elders still have business today, to discuss the marriage of Shang Ruodai and Wei Zhongyi, when to accept the collection, ask the name, Najib, accept the recruitment, invite the date, welcome in person, etc
The girls went to the garden to enjoy the flowers
A few boys walked slowly behind, chatting about one of the hottest travelogue books of the moment
"Journey to the East? I'm reading this book right now, and it's..."
Shang Mingyang has a pair of backs, but he can't rest assured about the situation of his grandfather, father and uncle
took Wei Zhongyi to visit the mansion, and several people were also a little tired, so they walked to the study to rest
Wei Zhongyi looked around slightly, "Why don't you see Old Master Shang and Uncle" He came this time in addition to proposing to Shang Ruodai, but also to ask Master Shang for teaching, after all, Master Shang is the Zhizhou of Fan Yang and is from Jinshi, it is really difficult to find a Jinshi in Fanyang
"I've been busy lately, and my grandfather and father haven't come back from the government yet" Shang Mingyang only said half of it, and did not mention that he was taken away by the prince
Wei Zhongyi nodded and said that he understood, "I see" Fan Yang's drought has only been better for a while, and the government must be very busy
A few people continued to chat about poetry and songs, and when the maid next to my grandmother came to summon her, they knew that they should have lunch, and when they came to the main courtyard to see the smiling faces of the elders, they thought that they should talk well.
After eating, Wei took Li's hand and said cordially, "Sister-in-law, you have worked hard all the way, I will find someone to arrange a room for you to rest for a while."
Li didn't shirk either, "Then it's troublesome girl"
