When Yi'er led the maid and servant to the door of Qiuxia Pavilion, she saw the county lord of Huayang and the Li family walking over side by side.

Yi'er was busy going over to meet the ceremony, the lord of Huayang County was fast, Li Shi hadn't opened her mouth yet, she had reached out to help Yi'er up, and said with a smile: "I'm also coming over today to have a casual look, get up quickly." ”

When Yi'er got up, the county lord of Huayang looked her up and down, and complained, "Why are you so thin? Don't you know how much to eat on weekdays? ”

Yi'er also imagined the scene when she met with the county lord of Huayang this time, but she really didn't expect the county lord of Huayang to say such loving and caring words without losing her closeness, so she blushed slightly, hung her head, and didn't know how to answer.

Li Shi said: "This girl likes to make some food by herself when she is free, and she is replaced by herself, isn't it that the amount of food is too light." I've been a mother and I've told her many times, but she just can't eat it, and it's okay. ”

Lord Huayang said: "This is not good. But I just returned to Beijing from the three northern states, and I am still a little uncomfortable with the diet at this time? There is a cook lady from Lianzhou in my house, who is good at cooking some medicinal food, and the things she makes are chic and delicious. ”

Yi'er didn't feel how thin she was, but the county lord of Huayang was also concerned and kind, and she couldn't refuse, so she had to ask the Li family's intentions, and nodded and thanked the county lord of Huayang.

Who knew that the lord of Huayang County said: "I heard that in the White Horse Temple that day, Mrs. and Miss Du were there, alas, it is really heaven to bless you, so that Mrs. and Miss can turn evil into good fortune and be lucky in death." ”

Yi'er was stunned, for no reason, how could the county lord of Huayang mention the matter of the White Horse Temple that day? After thinking about it carefully, it suddenly dawned on me, I was afraid that Jiang You, in order to make a good impression in front of the county lord of Huayang, told the county lord of Huayang about the fact that she desperately pushed Jiang You away from the White Horse Temple in advance, and with that guy's personality, maybe how to add oil and vinegar and shape himself into a glorious image of how to sacrifice himself for others? However, if she can give the county lord of Huayang a better impression, Yi'er is also willing, after all, she is Jiang You's mother, and she is Jiang You's closest person in this world, if she is ...... in the future Yi'er's heart is beating a little, this will still be her own in-laws, if she can handle the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it can be regarded as Yi'er's wish now.

The group entered the house, Yi'er personally waited for the two to sit on the head, she sat down and accompanied the tail, and waited for the maids to serve pastries and tea, Huayang raised his eyes and saw the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk, came to be interested, got up and walked over, picked up a piece of rice paper that Yi'er had practiced writing, and looked at it carefully.

Li said: "This girl is quiet on weekdays, either looking for some needlework to do, or writing here, I see that she really likes it, and she doesn't restrain her, so she can be a pastime after dinner." ”

The county lord of Huayang saw it, nodded with a smile, turned back to Yi'er and said, "Your word, but it is an imitation of the words of Song Zifang in the Song Dynasty of the Jiangnan?" ”

Yi'er said: "At first, my father found Song Wan's copy for me, but then he gradually became lazy, and he didn't copy it anymore. ”

The county lord of Huayang smiled: "I'll just say, this character resembles Song Wan, but the pattern cloth painting is far from Song Wan's words." To be honest, Song Wan's words are soft and lingering, so that they are suitable for women in the boudoir to imitate, but they are too sympathetic and lingering, and there is a sense of moaning without disease, although your word originates from Song Wan, the layout of the pen is much smoother than it, I really didn't expect that you can have this fire at a young age, on the calligraphy and painting, it is really rare! ”

Li Shi listened to the county lord of Huayang praise Yi'er, and felt useful in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't praise her, you see that she is a stable person, but you don't know that she is also a solid lord when she is proud, but she can't stand the praise." ”

The county lord of Huayang said with a smile: "Miss Du is still young, and it is the time of innocence, and some little daughters are exactly what they should be. The eldest lady is really blessed to have such a filial and confidant little padded jacket by her side. ”

Yi'er lowered her head slightly, obediently accompanied by the two of them, not frightened, and not too much to behave, the lord of Huayang saw it in his eyes, and his heart had another layer of liking, and said: "Your word, it reminds me of one of my close elders." ”

Yi'er was stunned and looked up in amazement.

Lord Huayang said: "When my father was young, he was quite similar to you in the early days of practicing calligraphy. ”

The ancestor of the lord of Huayang, that is the concubine of the eldest princess of Yunping, the former marquis Tan Wei of Dongsheng, that is a world-recognized generation of calligraphy and painting, and now the lord of Huayang actually compares Yi'er's words with Tan Wei when he was young, which is already a very high evaluation.

Yi'er's pretty face flushed slightly, and said: "The old marquis's words are world-famous, with iron and silver hooks, and vigorous pen power, which is the word little woman can compare?" ”

The lord of Huayang County said: "Mrs. and Miss may not know that my father was short-tempered when he was young, but his writing was soft and beautiful. If you say that the words of the late father, with Miss Du's level today, it is indeed indebted, but if you say that the words of his old man when he was young, it is really a little similar to Miss Du's font today. ”

Li said: "The old marquis is a master of calligraphy and painting, how can ordinary people compare?" The county lord also exalted her too much. ”

Huayang said again: "Miss Du's handwriting is so elegant, I don't know if I can learn to paint?" ”

This Huayang county lord is good at painting, especially painting bamboo, has been faintly known in the world for a generation of Danqing holy hands, as early as the old Dongsheng Marquis Tan Wei has not passed away, someone gave them "a father and daughter, calligraphy and painting are unique" reputation, the last Jiang You's birthday, Du Jinyao is ingenious, and has also liked to paint bamboo for the reason to win the favor of the Huayang county lord, but after thinking about it, the reputation of the Huayang county lord who is good at painting has long been known, Du Jinyao is stupid and pretended, always left behind, and there are signs of deliberate flattery.

Now that the county lord of Huayang asked like this, the Li family was nervous, lest Yi'er answer badly would leave a bad impression in the heart of the county lord of Huayang.

Yi'er shook her head generously and said, "I haven't learned it." The little girl was enlightened late, and it was reluctant to insist on practicing calligraphy every day, and she didn't dare to be greedy, so she didn't learn to paint again. ”

The county lord of Huayang had already inquired about Yi'er's past, and knew that she had returned to the Li family and his wife, and it had only been three years since she lived such a pampered life. In just three years, she was able to practice calligraphy to such an extent, although it was the reason why she had such a natural spirituality, but more probably because she was diligent and focused. Then the heart is more and more happy, said: "We stay in the inner house of the women's Taoist family, these are just pastimes, if you have to practice to achieve something, but it is a little too much, practice calligraphy is so, learn to paint is the same, if you are still interested in learning to paint, come to my house another day, I have a few pictures suitable for beginners to paint, I point to you." ”

The county lord of Huayang said this, and he had already made it clear that he was going to teach Yi'er to paint, and the Li family was happy, and Yi'er was also busy with his blessings.

The lord of Huayang County read the words, crossed the desk, and picked up an embroidered handkerchief in the piece of paper on the side of the soft couch, the handkerchief was embroidered with a few plum branches, and two thrushes stood on it, embroidered vividly, especially the two thrush birds, leading the neck and singing, lifelike, making people look at a glance, and there seemed to be a birdsong in the ears slipping through.

The county lord of Huayang was amazed and asked Yi'er: "You also embroidered this?" ”

Yi'er nodded and said, "I have nothing to do on weekdays, embroidering and playing." ”

The county lord of Huayang shook his head and smiled: "You still call it embroidery?" Then why do you make those embroidery girls in the embroidery building, one by one? ”

Yi'er pursed her lips and smiled: "If the county lord likes this little thing, I'll give it to the county lord for tricks, but this material is just ordinary cloud brocade, I'm afraid ......."

"Okay, okay, I really like this thing, since you gave it to me, I'm going to put it away and take it away."

Yi'er said: "The county lord doesn't dislike it, and Kite is already very happy." ”

The county lord of Huayang thought about it, reached out and took off the finely carved glazed jade flying phoenix moon-to-moon hairpin on his head, handed it to Yi'er and said: "I am an elder, and I can't ignore your junior's things in vain, I have carried this hairpin for a long time, and it is not worth anything, you can use it for tricks." ”

Yi'er excused herself for a few words, and when she saw that the county lord of Huayang insisted on sending it, she had to take it and thank her.

The three of them walked around Yi'er's boudoir, Huayang saw that the decoration in the house was mainly elegant, refreshing and chic, but not monotonous, nodding secretly in his heart, and seeing the maids accompanying the side all hanging their eyes and hands, the rules and etiquette were taught very well, and the more happy he was.

sat down and used a cup of tea, Yi'er personally waited, his demeanor was calm and generous, and his speech was even more unhurried, which was very useful. The county lord of Huayang couldn't help but think in his heart: It's still his own son who has a vision, and the person he likes is really not inferior to those ladies taught by the hairpin family!

It was almost noon, the three of them went to Mingfeng Tower together, naturally, the county lord of Huayang and Li Yi'er walked together, and attracted some of the ladies and ladies upstairs to speculate and discuss, this time Du Jinyao has been dressed up, and the ceremony is about to begin, Yi'er and a few people stood aside to watch the ceremony, the county lord of Huayang pulled Li to speak, Yi'er was free, and the two elves in the third room, Du Qinwen, Du Qinya, surrounded him, and pulled Yi'er to whisper some interesting things.

After the ceremony, the Wei family came over to invite the county lord of Huayang to sit down, the county lord of Huayang thought about it, cleared his throat, and said: "Today, with Miss Du Si's ceremony, all the ladies and ladies are all there, and there is also a happy event here in Huayang that I want to announce to you." ”

Who was not clear to everyone present, it had long been rumored that the county lord of Huayang came over this time to marry the Marquis of Qingxiang. Now hearing what the county lord of Huayang said, everyone's hearts were bright, and they all shut up and looked at the county lord of Huayang, even the princess of the Marquis of Weiqin, Su, seemed to be interested at this time, and looked at the county lord of Huayang.
