Chapter 198: The Difficult Sutra
As soon as the carriage came out of the gate, Nangong Yin stopped her.
"Yan'er, Yan'er, I know you're in the carriage, I have something to tell you!" He choked up and pleaded, his voice no longer as clear and pleasant as it had been, and a little rough and hoarse.
Amber picked up the window and persuaded gently: "Young Master Nangong, now that my young lady has promised to marry, it is really inconvenient to see you in private, please go back!" ”
"Yan'er, I know you're angry with me, but now that so many years have passed, can you forgive me for my sake?" Nangong Yin didn't give up, and she couldn't care about the ugly look on Amber's face, and said: "Yan'er, what is the identity of that Gongziyan, how can I tolerate you?" Today, you marry into his mansion as you please, and you will not be hated by him in the future......"
Mu Qingyan motioned to Amber to put down the curtain in the car, and Youyou stopped him: "The matter has come to this, why bother!" ”
Nangong Yin got two words from her, and her heart instantly turned cold.
The carriage stopped outside the Yunshang Fang on West Street, and Mu Qingyan didn't seem to know that the person who had followed the way, so he calmly got out of the car and entered the shop.
As soon as the shopkeeper in the shop saw that she was coming, he immediately sent his men to invite his master. greeted politely: "Miss Mu, please serve tea in the backyard and rest, my master will come soon." ”
"Actually, I don't have to work at the beginning of the snow, I just came over to take a look, why bother tossing her!" Mu Qingyan didn't appreciate it, holding a fan to block half of his face, and turning the originally neatly arranged clothes into a mess with one hand, and there was no one who looked at it from beginning to end. "Is Yunshang Fang about to close? Is this kind of material embarrassed to put out? Her disgusted choking voice vividly played the rude appearance of the past again, and then swaggered to the backyard.
At the time of a cup of tea, Xue Chu entered the backyard in a hurry.
"Yan'er, why didn't you run away without saying hello in advance?" She entered the door and sat down next to Mu Qingyan, took her hand and looked at it carefully before sighing, "How have you been doing in the past few years?" Since the beating of Gongzi Han Feng Wang, your family has not been able to enter, I heard that you were imprisoned in the courtyard by him, why is he willing to let you out now? ”
Mu smoked lightly but smiled silently.
Yan Xuechu couldn't understand her smile, and twisted her eyebrows and asked, "Isn't it true that as rumored, you and Nangong Yin are married again?" ”
Mu Qingyan shook his head, "I'm engaged, but it's not Nangong Yin."
Yan Xuechu was a little surprised, and looked at her with watery eyes, "Could it be Qin Yan?" ”
"You're really well-informed, it's just such a thing, I'm afraid it's spread in the capital now?" Mu Qingyan murmured in annoyance.
Yan Xuechu slapped her head, "Oh my God, I can't believe it, this is actually true!" ”
Mu Qingyan glanced at her angrily, and pulled back the hand she was holding, "What's so great about him Qin Yan, Miss Ben didn't dislike him, it's not bad!" ”
Yan Xuechu regained her usual composure and pursed her lips, "Isn't Qin Yan a big deal?" He is the Tiger King of Pingnan, an upstart in this court, and you don't inquire, how many people are lining up to send their daughters to the door! She glanced at Mu Qingyan, "It's a pity, I don't know how I fell into your pit!" ”
Mu Qingyan didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and stretched out his paw to tickle her, "Don't shut up Miss Ben yet, it's like Miss Ben automatically sent her to the door!" ”
"Okay, good, don't dare, don't dare!" Xue Chu hurriedly dodged and begged for mercy, and only Mu Qingyan knew that she was afraid of this move, and only in front of her could she make such a presumptuous joke.
Mu Qingyan looked at the tears that kept rolling down her eyes distressedly, and big drops came out of the frame. She hugged her and coaxed: "Don't cry, don't cry, Miss Ben is back, no one can bully you anymore!" ”
Helped Yan Xuechu to settle down in the chair and gave Amber a look.
Amber comprehended, beckoned the two of them to bring a group of maids out of the room, and went to the side room to drink tea.
"That person surnamed Xie treats you badly, you don't have to put up with him, with the status of the Yan family, are you afraid that he will not be able to go against the sky?" Mu was light and smoky, and as soon as the maids left, she was completely exposed, jumping back and forth on the ground.
Yan Xuechu's tears were like rain, crying so much that she couldn't speak.
Mu Qingyan couldn't bear it, walked over and stood in front of her, and pressed her head into his arms. "Cry, tell me about the past few years after crying, Miss Ben will give you an outlet!"
Yan Xuechu really cried, and there was time for two teas, but her eyes were swollen and her makeup was spent, so she stopped crying in Mu Qingyan's strange eyes.
"Don't look at it, it's ugly!" She dodged Mu Qingyan's gaze.
"It's ugly, it's ugly, you can still see it!" Mu Qingyan smiled like a smile on his lips, and handed over a cold tea, "It's not too late to drink some cold to go to the heart fire and cry!" ”
Yan Xue drank half of it, wiped her tears with the half-wet handkerchief in her hand, and went to wipe Mu Qingyan's clothes wet by her crying. The light pink clothes on her body were sent to the Wing King's Mansion by her three years ago. There are not three or five horses a year, but she will send two horses in at once, and she and Qing'er can cut a new dress.
Mu Qingyan pulled his clothes and begged for a reward: "This dress is the first time I wear it, and when I was about to go out, Coral stopped me and told me for a long time before I was willing to let me out, for fear that I would spoil my clothes." ”
Yan Xuechu saw that her chest was already soaked, and the embroidered color of the corset inside was faintly revealed, and she called Xiaozhu in apologetically, "Send someone to the Yiwang Mansion to pick up clean clothes for Miss Yan!" ”
"Don't, it's better for me to let Amber take the car back to get it!" Mu Qingyan ordered Amber a few words, then sat back on the chair, held Xiaozhu and brought the freshly brewed tea, and took a few sips while it was hot.
Although Yan Xuechu was melancholy and his heart knots were unresolved, he cried a lot and was much happier.
Mu Qingyan knew that she had something to say in her heart, and she didn't want to vomit and be unhappy today, so she opened her mouth first: "Let's talk about everything that Miss Ben doesn't know!" ”
Yan Xue was stunned for a while, looking at the righteousness between Mu Qingyan's eyebrows, and suddenly relied on her heart.
"Five years ago, I obeyed my mother and grandmother's wishes and recruited the second son of Xiefu on West Street. At the beginning, the two families were very happy, and the Xie family was not rich, only two shops sold some books and paper to survive, which was more than enough than the top. The eldest son of the Xie family is a group of people, and the shop is flourishing day by day under his management; The second son is a scholar, he looks like a jade tree in the wind, he looks dignified, he failed to take the exam twice, and his mother asked people to say kiss at this time, and it was done. ”
She raised her head and looked at Mu Qingyan with a wry smile, and then continued: "After Xie Ergongzi joined, he could still read books with peace of mind at the beginning, but who doesn't know the prosperity of the Yan family?" Gradually, some ill-intentioned people posted on him, today's poetry meeting, tomorrow's spring, and the day after tomorrow, I don't care, and sometimes encourage him to make friends and broaden his horizons. It wasn't until more than a year later that someone in the capital rumored that the second son of the Xie family spent a lot of money and raised an outer room. ”
Mu Qingyan wiped her tears with her own handkerchief, served tea and water, and her eyes were calm and waveless.
"That year, there was a drought in Wu County, and the silkworms were not full of mulberry leaves when they were growing, and I was anxious, and I didn't know that I was pregnant, and it was almost three months when I was born. This illness was two months, I couldn't get up in bed, and he didn't return day and night. When I got better, I inquired about him carefully, and it didn't take much effort to find him. ”
Yan Xuechu's eyes welled up with tears again, and she looked at Mu Qingyan fixedly, "Do you know Yan'er?" That's a Qinglou woman, who is used to doing small things in a low voice, and will chant poems to please him, so she coaxed him in that small courtyard and didn't go home. I couldn't get angry, so I ordered someone to invite the eldest son of the Xie family to reconcile! ”
She lowered her head, let her tears fall to the ground, and only after a while did she speak again, "After a month or two, my mother took him back to Thrush Villa for fear of embarrassment, and said a few cruel words and just did it!" ”
Mu Qingyan asked in a low voice: "I haven't heard that the Yan family has a middle lifter in the past few years, isn't he not studying?" ”
"Huh, reading? He now lingers in the Qinglou all day long, and it is common for him not to go home for a few days. It's been three years, we've never slept in the same bed in three years, we haven't eaten at the same table, and I want to vomit when I smell the fat powder smell on his body! ”
"There's no way you can go on like this!" Mu Qingyan held her hand and said worriedly: "The Yan family has always been a woman in charge, if you don't have a concubine, sooner or later there will be chaos." ”
Yan Xuechu sighed: "I have long been downsitized, no matter how prosperous the Yan family is, all I want is three meals a day." People only have to suffer, and although the power of this ruler is tempting, it is not uncommon for me to do so! ”
After hesitating again and again, Mu Qingyan still said the sentence in his heart: "Xue Chu, if you are reconciled, how much do you think the Yan family will be affected?" ”
"If it weren't for me in this position, I'm afraid that the materials you want to wear would have been emptied. A few days ago, the Tiger King placed an order, all of which were expensive and fine materials, and it would take two years for the Yan family to deliver all the goods, and the earliest batch would not be available until winter. After a pause, she said indignantly: "What is the influence, the nobles in this capital don't wear robes?" ”
"Then have you ever thought that Second Master Xie may have been bewitched by your opponent?" Mu Qingyan suddenly thought of the seriousness, "Xue Chu, listen to me, I've been guarding the door more tightly recently, don't let people with intentions take advantage of it!" ”
"Although Dongchu is big, Yan Jiasi may be the only thing that others can't steal if they want to!" Yan Xue suddenly thought of another thing at this point, "Just like the wine of Qingjing Winery, there are thousands of people who want to steal it?" It's just wishful thinking, it's that easy. ”
Mu Qingyan thought about it slightly and felt right, even if she gave the recipe to others, she might not be able to make it, so there was really no need to worry.
"I really miss the first few years when we were young, and the four of us lived lawlessly." Mu Qingyan sighed.
Yan Xuechu glanced at her, "You are the only one who is lawless, and even the little county lord does not have your stubborn ability." She wrinkled her eyebrows and stuck in the past, "At that time, I often wondered why I was born in the Yan family, if I was born in an ordinary family, it might be better than the Yan family." When everyone envies me for being in charge of the Yan family, who knows that I can't help myself! ”
"Even if he was born in an ordinary family, he is afraid that it will not work, the people he comes into contact with have always been noble, how can the little jasper get into his eyes?" Mu Qingyan meant something.
Yan Xuechu looked at her in astonishment, opened her mouth and stammered for a long time, and finally closed her mouth again.
Mu Qingyan glanced at her, "What, I can't know?" She suddenly leaned into Yan Xuechu's ear and whispered: "Whether it is the prince Jue of Qilin Mountain Villa or the current saint, the candidate you want to join is too great!" ”
"Stay away from me!" Yan Xuechu's cheeks were red, and she pushed Mu Qingyan with one hand, "Who thinks, I don't have a good time, you ...... You are talking nonsense! ”
Mu Qingyan sat up straight, followed her words and said, "Okay, you didn't!" She suddenly leaned over and asked, "If Second Prince Xie changes his mind, do you still want him?" Or do you have a better fit? ”
Yan Xuechu sighed again, "The scars have already formed, how easy is it to erase them?" But since ancient times, women have always been in the end, and the reputation of the Yan family still has to be taken into account after all! ”
"It's not that there is no way, I'll think of a rut for you when I'm free in a few days, let him go home and never go out again!" Mu Qingyan found out her intentions, so he stopped tempting her to speak.
Amber came back and waited for Mu Qingyan to change into clothes.
"This piece of material is new this year, Qing'er doesn't have it, there are only two horses, and I kept one." Yan Xuechu tugged at her cuffs and looked at it, "It's the most suitable to make a summer shirt, it's cool and not sticky; It's just that you should be careful when washing, boil the water and dry it until it is completely cold, and then throw a handful of fine salt, don't dry it, spread it on the table and dry it in the shade, for fear of fading. ”
"What a hassle!" Mu Qingyan muttered.
Yan Xuechu smiled slightly, leveled her collar, and pinched her nose, "I am reluctant to cut one to wear myself, you still dare to dislike it, and you can't fight it?" ”
"I almost forgot about business!" Mu Qingyan smiled and came to Yan Xuechu's side, "Give two pieces of material for wedding dresses, Miss Ben is finally going to make wedding clothes!" ”
Since Yan Xuechu met Mu Qingyan, she has not seen her in everything, and even if she wants to marry now, she does not see that she has the shyness of other girls to marry, and she didn't give her good things, so she had to tease her.
"Wedding dress, I will probably be able to have it in the second half of next year!" Yan Xuechu's face was cunning.
Mu Qingyan didn't fall for her, and the old god was about to leave after drinking half a cup of tea.
"It's really boring!" Yan Xuechu threw off the handkerchief and sat on the chair and complained, "You forgot when you teased others? On the other hand, you are not fooled. She shouted out the door, "Go and bring what I have prepared to this debt collector, and send her to her house." ”
Xiaozhu lifted the curtain, and Xiaomei and Xiaoju each came in with a tray and placed it on the table specially placed for looking at the material. She looked at Mu Qingyan with a smile, "Miss Yan, my shopkeeper has already prepared what you want, come and take a look!" ”
