Chapter 12 The Six Sons of Eastern Chu
The old lady of the Yan family, Yan Feng, smiled with her eyebrows, and whispered to the old lady of the Dongfang family.
"What are you two whispering about, we can't hear you?" Nangong Yingyue asked with a smile.
"How can there be a whisper, Feng'er wants to be a matchmaker for the moon girl, do you want to marry?" The old lady of the East laughed and scolded.
"Feng'er, who are you going to give the moon girl to?" Nangong Yingyue and the ladies all looked at it curiously.
Yan Feng smiled: "Young Master Qinghan of the Mu family, Yingying, do you say it's okay?" β
Several old ladies called each other the same names as when they were not out of the cabinet.
Nangong Yingyue restrained her smile and groaned, "It is said that it is the right one, but the Mu family is indisputable with the world, and the young master of Qinghan is young and old, and he looks like a good one, but he can't figure out the character." β
"That kid is not only a good one, the young man is in charge, he has a good appearance, and none of us disciples of the family can match!" Yan Feng sighed, thinking that if Mu Zheng hadn't retired fifty years ago, what kind of family background would he have this time?
The old lady of Dongfang continued, "He often has dealings with Jue'er, and when he goes in and out of my house, he is more polite than the sons of other families. β
"Then have you mentioned it, have you ever seen him have a love for the moon girl?" Nangong Yingyue asked.
"Yingying, you are messing around again, Young Master Qinghan and Jue'er come and go in the big study of the outer courtyard, and they never enter the inner mansion, I am afraid that they have never seen it." The old lady of the East sighed and said, "Feng'er is right, that kid is polite to everyone, never frivolous, and can't see through." β
"His parents died early, and Mu Zheng took two brothers and sisters, and it was really difficult for him to raise these two children." Nangong Yingyue's face was desolate, fifty years had passed, and she still felt guilty when she mentioned that she was related to Mu Zheng.
"Miss Mujia Qingyan is a lively person, and she is only greedy for fun." Yan Feng smiled again.
"It's okay, I grew up watching it, so I naturally feel at ease." Mrs. Nangong took over, "I'm really afraid that she will be stunned and lose her youthful heart." β
"She's from your family sooner or later, of course you're partial, and everything is good." The eldest princess laughed and scolded.
Mrs. Nangong also laughed.
"When I have the chance, I'll ask what Mu Zheng means." Nangong Yingyue thought about it, and said with a straight face: "His Mu family is not as good as Beppu, and it is better to go after discussing it in private, and his temper is not easy to get along with." β
Yan Feng and the old lady of the east nodded.
"Jue'er will be twenty-two after the New Year, don't you still discuss marriage?" Nangong Yingyue changed the topic and asked again.
The old lady of the East suddenly sighed: "Alas! We can't do Jue'er's affairs, as far as his temperament is, if he refuses, no one can force him to go! βγ
"The children are all older, each has their own opinions, and our family Jin'er is like this, it's really uneasy." Nangong Yingyue also sighed.
Jian Xiang looked at the old ladies with a deep groan, and took the play book to interject, "This play is finished, the old ladies will come out again to listen, I have to listen to it enough." Then he turned and called out to the maids, and when they had heated the wine, they poured it up.
Nangong Yingyue took the play book, turned around and gave it to Mrs. Xiangguo, "Don't just care about a few of us old ones, you little sisters go to order a play, let's just listen." β
Xiangguo's wife Qiu Xiaoyue and the princess Jian Xiang and the current head of the Yan family, Yan Xi, are friends in the boudoir, and they still have close contacts after marriage.
Qiu Xiaoyue took the play book, "Old ladies, you're welcome, what our juniors listen to, you will listen to it." It took half of the book to order "Mulan", and handed the play book to the maids.
The drums sounded, and they all praised her for being smart.
Old lady, the old man watched the drama and talked about the government and didn't say anything.
Just talking about the table of young masters, there are five of the six sons of Dongchu today.
Chu Jin talks the most, and he can't be quiet for a moment, and he can still give birth to three points of excitement when he has nothing to do, and he likes to hang out all over the city on weekdays. He doesn't have a hierarchy concept, as long as he has the right temper, even a commoner can call him a brother. Xiang Tianqi, the fifth young man of the Xicheng Batian Dart Bureau, is the friendship between the two in the market when they were children.
It is rumored that Chu Jin is called Gongzi Jin. Needless to say, in addition to the forbidden palace, his family is the first-class rich, above tens of thousands of people. Chu Jin's appearance is somewhat similar to Chu Jing, with a deep silhouette and a thin body.
Jing Liang is the only concubine of the eldest princess, and she is two or three years older than several people, and she is married. Gongzi Liang is not as gentle and elegant as the ordinary son of a family, there is a little more evil in his handsomeness, and a pursed lip and a frown make people wary, for fear of being calculated by him.
Dongfang Fengjue is the current head of the Qilin Villa, and he is full of energy, dragon and phoenix; He has a calm temperament, is modest and polite, and shows the extraordinary bearing of the son of the family in his gestures. Although he is only an imperial businessman and has no official lordship, he is often just drinking quietly, but he always gives people a powerful aura that cannot be ignored, and the dignity seems to come out of his bones.
The frost on Qin Yan's face was a little colder than the snow in the courtyard, even if he drank wine, he still had this habitual temperament that did not blend with the crowd. Gongzi Yan has very few words, he became famous overnight three years ago, and he is the most legendary upstart in the capital.
Mu Qinghan is the young master of the Mu family in Shuiyue Villa, and the person in charge of the 'World Money Village'. Gongzi is young and old, handsome and beautiful. took over the Mu family at a young age, and in four or five years, he became famous alone.
Nangong Yinsiwen is kind and does not fight with the world. Gongzi Yin has a kind of stubbornness, and the prosperous scenery is not within what he wants. What can enter his heart is nothing more than weapon forging and Mu Qingyaner.
The six sons of Dongchu are unattainable figures in the world, either by origin or by their own skills. Although none of the people in the list of the six princes cared about this title, many of the children of other families except for the six were not convinced.
Xiang Tianqi is the fifth young master of the Deceptive Dart Bureau, and he has a deep friendship with Chu Jin in the downtown fight since he was a child. Although he is a white ding, he can go in and out of King Jing's Mansion as if he were his own house since he was a child, and occasionally he will stay in Chu Jin's courtyard and not leave, and it is even more common to eat and drink together.
Nangong Hao is different, he was born in a family, and he has a stubborn temperament, he doesn't like anything, and he doesn't care about anyone. He has been used to this Jingwang Mansion since he was a child, and he is used to messing around. I got tired of these sons and brothers' tables, so I went to the old lady's side to make trouble for a while, Chu Jing couldn't take him, Mu Zheng also watched him grow up since he was a child, laughed and scolded, he didn't go to his heart, he came back after having enough.
"Big brother, since your heart has been lost in the Mu family, it is better to go back to Gentle Township." Nangong Hao rolled his eyes and looked at Nangong Yin, teasing his eldest brother.
Nangong Yin has always let this younger brother, "What nonsense do you say, and you are not afraid of the jokes of the sons." β
Dongfang Fengjue has never heard of Mu Qingyan's carriage since he saw her in the Lion Tower that day, and at this time, he heard Nangong Hao joke about her and Nangong Yin, and his heart was inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Big cousin has a gentle township to go, and you don't want to go!" Chu Jin looked at Nangong Hao with a look of disgust.
Jing Liang looked at a few people and asked, "But you invited Gongzi Han?" β
"I sent an invitation to the house alone, and Gongzi Han asked people to reply that he really can't withdraw from the New Year's Festival now, and when he is the East after the New Year, please feast and drink." Chu Jin replied regretfully.
"How could Mu Qinghan be invited by you, Smiling Tiger, hum!" Nangong Hao snorted dissatisfiedly.
"Hao, you talk well, Qinghan is just busy with the New Year's Festival in Mufu, not as good as me." Nangong Yin automatically and consciously spoke to Mu Qinghan.
"Brother, have you been brainwashed by that naughty woman Mu Qingyan? How do you speak to his Mu family, your surname is Nangong! Nangong Hao glared angrily and glared at Nangong Yin: "Gongzi Jue is also a housekeeper, why can he come?" β
"Oh? Shouldn't I have come? Dongfang Fengjue looked up and said softly: "Am I more unsuccessful?" β
Jing Liang smiled and touched a glass with Qin Yan, both of them drank the wine in the glass, and continued to watch Nangong Hao mess around.
Xiang Tianqi stuffed a glass of wine on the table into Nangong Hao's hand, touched the glass with him, dried it himself, and motioned with his eyes to drink it too.
"Drink it, I'm going to get drunk and you have to send me home!" Nangong Hao cheats.
Xiang Tianqi teased him, "I still have the strength to carry you home, you can drink it with confidence!" β
As everyone knows, Nangong Hao's wine is not good, and he will make trouble after a few glasses of wine, and he will toss people if he drinks more. Nangong Yin, as the eldest son, was born in everyone's expectation, and all the good in his life flocked to him; Nangong Hao is the second, everyone hopes to be born a female baby, but unfortunately he is still a man, and he is not too restrained, so he has developed such an arrogant and arrogant temperament today.
Laugh once, listen to a play, and drink again. When I arrived, I cooked some noodle soup and ate it, drank a decanting soup, and then ended the field. The little maids and maids of their respective families took care of them and went home.
Mu Qinghan was busy with the settlement of the Mufu industry at the end of the year, and there was Chu Han in charge of the house, and there was no chaos at all, everything was in order.
Seeing that the days are passing day by day, and tomorrow will be the New Year, the stewards of Mufu from all over the country have returned to Shuiyue Villa one after another, and the first three entrances of the main courtyard are full, and there are two places with more family members, and the courtyard on the west side of the house has been given out. Mu Yuanshan, the chief housekeeper of Mufu, and Aunt Fu couldn't be busy, so they invited the other ladies in charge to help.
From tomorrow, the sacrifice stove should be offered to the ancestors, and the offering will not be withdrawn until the fifteenth day of the first month.
In the past ten days, Mu Qingyan has never taken a step out of Lanyan Pavilion, and has been managed by Aunt Han, and finally healed his injuries, although his strength is not good, he is no longer hindered. All the things that should be dealt with were personally sent to the house by Qing Jin, and after getting her order, he took them back, and he was safe.
Because of the appointment with Yu Dye Yan and Yan Xue Chu Xiao Nian to go to the Shakong Temple to make incense, they got up on the fifth watch day to clean up.
Amber couldn't follow, and Lanyan Pavilion still had a lot of things waiting for her, so she carefully instructed a few big girls to follow. Cinnabar can't go either, Aunt Han has asked her to be a running errand for several days, and she is pouting and angry at this time; Coral couldn't help but tease her, teasing her three times and teasing her, but when she was younger, she actually cried.
Amber pulled over and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, laughing at her for not being productive. She was embarrassed and laughed again. Mu Qingyan looked funny, and coaxed her: "You are better at home, and I will buy candy for you to eat when I come back." β
Cinnabar then gave up and went to Chu Han's courtyard.
Linglong, coral, glaze, and pearl four people, packed up their things, and called the little guy to go to the jade house. The Yu family lives in the southwest of the city, and if you want to go out of the north of the city, you don't have to go through Shuiyue Villa.
The little guy went out and ran back after a while, saying that the carriage of the Yufu had arrived outside the mansion.
Linglong asked her own carriage again, but it was ready, and the little guy replied that it had been prepared a long time ago.
Mu Qingyan took the four maids out of the house, and Yu Ran looked at her with the curtain and was stunned for a moment. "How did you clear down so much, are you still sick and not very well?" The voice is clear and very good.
"It's colder this winter, and my body is not strong, but it's been good these days, but I haven't been able to raise it yet, so don't worry." Mu Qingyan stood in front of her car, her eyes soft.
"You get in the car quickly, don't freeze anymore, let's pick up Xue Chu." urged Mu Qingyan to get into the car quickly.
Mu Qingyan held the stove in his hand, deliberately gave Yu Ran a look, smiled mischievously and got on his horse, and after the four maids also went up, the coachman beat the horse, and the two cars drove towards the Thrush Villa on Xuanwu West Street.
The two carriages walked from Zhuque Street to Xuanwu Street one after the other, and saw a carriage parked on the side of the road, and a small servant ran up to ask questions, knowing that it was the car of the two prefectures, and went back to drive first, heading towards the north city gate.
Qin Yan rode out of the mansion on horseback, and just happened to see three carriages passing by one after the other, and there were several attendants on horseback. The little guy next to him looked at him, and said, "That's the carriage of Yanfu, Yufu and Mufu, I think it's the young ladies of the three families who made an appointment to go to the temple to offer incense." β
Qin Yan didn't speak, thinking that his fiancΓ©e was also in the car, and that woman who was both civil and military would be with him for the rest of her life. And I remembered my mother's words that day, then today! I went to give a New Year's gift with my mother, and she was not at home, so as not to encounter embarrassment.
