Text Chapter 37: Yun Yao
In the Peony Pavilion outside the Qinglan Courtyard of Yunfu, Yun Xuan walked over slowly with a close-fitting maid bottle, met a little girl, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Yun Xuan waved her hand, signaling that the little girl didn't need to get up, and was about to go through the Peony Pavilion with the bottle, and the little girl said, "Is the fifth prince going to greet his wife?" ”
Yun Xuan nodded, did not speak, his illness is basically cured, but the complexion on his face is not good, people are still a little disgusted, his close-fitting maid bottle is the deepest, since returning to the ancestral house this time, their Yun Wugongzi people who were light and breezy in the past suddenly became a little deep, not to say less, even in the face of their servants and maids in the past, they were smiling, but now it is difficult to see a familiar smile on the face of the fifth prince!
The little maid said: "Madame is now meeting guests in Qinglan Courtyard, if the fifth prince wants to go, can he ask the slave maid to go to Tongyu?" ”
"Visitors?"
"Well, it's the young lady of the Lianzhou Governor's house, Miss Du's family, Miss Eleven's post asks Miss Du to come over the house to play, early this morning, Miss Du arrived."
Yun Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Is it the flying kite sister who has been thinking about it since the eleventh sister came back last time?" ”
"Yes!"
Yun Xuan stopped, stood in the peony pavilion, and looked at the peony lake outside the pavilion in contemplation.
After a while, the bottle asked tentatively, "Childe, are we still going to Qinglan Courtyard to say goodbye?" ”
Yun Xuan sighed and said, "That's it, since my mother has a guest and a woman, I won't bother!" After speaking, he lifted his shirt, got off the Peony Pavilion first, and walked back and forth.
It's just that Yun Xuan definitely didn't think that not long after he left, Yi'er entered the Peony Pavilion accompanied by Yun Xuan, the little maid laid a soft cushion on the stone bench, and put melons and fruits on the stone table, so she quietly retreated to the outside of the pavilion and waited, after Yun Ying and Yi'er sat down, Yun Ying said: "Sister Fei Kite, I must come over early in the morning on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, you have to prepare my favorite hibiscus cake for me!" ”
Li and Yi'er are going to hold a chrysanthemum banquet on the Double Ninth Festival, the invitations have been written, and the people next to them naturally sent their subordinates to send the post, Yunfu happened to be Yi'er here, so they brought the invitation over by the way, and when they just asked Qu to say goodbye, Yi'er gave Qu to Qu, stayed by Qu's side for a while, Qu sent them to play by themselves, and the two led a group of servants to the Peony Pavilion.
At this time, listening to Yun Ying, Yi'er said with a smile: "Don't worry, anything else can be missing, it's Sister Yao's hibiscus cake, it must be full, okay?" ”
Yun Ying smiled and hugged Yi'er's arm and said, "I knew that Sister Fei Kite was the best!" ”
The two talked for a while, and Yun Xuan suddenly remembered something, so he said, "Sister Feiyu, I heard that Master Du is from the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion?" ”
Yi'er nodded.
Yun Yu frowned and said: "Our Yun family has nothing to do with the Qingxiang Hou Mansion, but Xiao Lu'er's third aunt is married to the third master of the Qingxiang Hou Mansion, so Xiao Lu'er often goes to the Qingxiang Hou Mansion, oh, by the way, Xiao Lu'er is Zhong Lu'er, her father is Zhong Liwang, the Qing of Dali Temple, Sister Feiji, do you know Xiao Lu'er?" ”
Yi'er smiled and said, "Sister Yao doesn't know, I have been separated from my parents since I was a child, and I didn't grow up in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, but this time my father came to Beikaicheng to take office, and I only reunited with my parents when I was on the way!" ”
Yun Xuan was so shocked that his whole mouth became an O-shape, and he didn't react for a long time, and finally grabbed Yi'er's hand and said, "There is still such a thing?" Why didn't Sister Fei Kite tell me? So how have you spent all these years? You must have suffered a lot, right? ”
"It's nothing, it's all gone anyway!"
Yi'er's words didn't have any reluctance or comfort, she didn't feel how hard and tired the past days were, but when she heard these words in Yun Xuan's ears, it became a complete suffering, a nightmare past that she never wanted to mention again, and she couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for Yi'er in her heart, so she nodded heavily and said, "Yes, it's all over, I don't ask, and my sister shouldn't think about it anymore!" ”
Yi'er saw Yun Xuan's sincere and sympathetic gaze, but she was also a little moved in her heart.
Yun Yao smacked her lips and said, "No wonder Xiao Lu'er didn't mention her sister in front of me, it turns out that my sister is not in the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion at all." I'll just say, my sister is such a good person, Xiao Lu'er will definitely like it when she sees it, why don't you tell me? She also told me that those young ladies in the Qingxiang Hou Mansion are all pretending to be boring and boring, and when I introduce my sister to her next time, she will know that there is such a good and interesting young lady as my sister in the Qingxiang Hou Mansion! ”
"You and Xiao Xi'er are very good, huh?"
"Yes! Sister, you don't know, those young ladies of the powerful families in the capital, all of them are stunned, and they are not very interesting, only Xiao Lu'er, eccentric, the most fun, and her father, a handful of old and full of bad water, I heard that once in the Jinluan Palace, he also put a caterpillar into the clothes of an old imperial history, haha, made the old imperial history scratch his cheeks and tickle in front of the emperor, and finally screamed and jumped, so funny! ”
"If he's like this, doesn't the emperor care?"
Of course the emperor has to take care of it, but this Zhong Liwang, he opened his eyes and said nonsense, but he didn't admit that he put the worm. The old imperial history cried in front of the emperor with a handful of snot and tears, but in the end, the emperor only stopped because of insufficient evidence! I heard my father say that although this Zhong Liwang is cynical, he is a genius in criminal investigation and questioning, and he is deeply respected by the emperor! ”
In the Peony Pavilion, the two enjoyed the lake view while using refreshments, and after a while, Yun Ying was interested again, pulled Yi'er to her Yaming Pavilion, picked up some of her embroidery work and showed it to Yi'er, and then pitifully accused Qu of how much work she had left, and set a time limit, and strictly ordered her girls not to help. Looking at the large pile of embroidery work in her hand, Yun Xuan wanted to cry without tears, looking like a little daughter-in-law who was oppressed by exploitation.
Yi'er couldn't help but smile when she saw Yun Xuan's appearance, picked up an embroidery sample casually, looked at it and said: "This embroidery pattern is very well drawn, but the pattern is too complicated, if you only embroider it on an embroidered handkerchief or spring shirt, you don't have to, you see it like this..."
Yun Yu picked up Yi'er's newly painted pattern, and was so surprised that she smacked her tongue again and again, and praised it: "Sister Feiyu, you are too powerful, tell me how you did it, how you can draw a pattern in three or two clicks, you don't know, my hibiscus pattern, it took me a morning to draw it!" ”
Yi'er said: "You are complicated, naturally time-consuming, I am simple, what is strange about being faster!" ”
"But you're very good-looking, it's all hibiscus pictures, why do you have both form and spirit after a few strokes? And I've painted so much, but it's not as expressive as yours? ”
"Don't coax me to be happy, where is it as good as you said, I'm just to be lazy, embroider it is simple and trouble-free, you see if you embroider according to your original pattern, there is no three days, where can you embroider? You can embroider according to the pattern I draw, and you should be able to embroider it in one day! ”
Yun Xuan's eyes widened, staring at Yi'er seriously in disbelief, Ban Xiangfang took Yi'er's hand with a flattering face, and said, "Good sister, you can help me, just two, two embroideries, you help me embroider two embroideries, and I will invite you to eat crabs another day!" ”
Yi'er snorted and pretended: "If I don't help you embroider things, there will be no crabs to eat!" ”
Yun Yu hurriedly waved her hand in a hurry, and said again and again: "No, no, look at my mouth, oh good sister, you can help me, my mother spoke, my girls didn't dare to help me, I was about to die." Sister Fei Kite, according to the embroidery pattern you draw, it really only takes one day to embroider? ”
"If you hurry up a little, it's almost half a day!"
Yun Yu looked at Yi'er like a monster, and only after half a sound seemed to be deflated, he sighed: "This is too unfair, you know that if I embroider this, I will never be able to embroider it in more than three days!" Sister Fei Kite, since you embroider so fast, why don't you help me embroider a few more, four, no, no, no, five, just five, Sister Fei Kite, okay? ”
Yi'er was a little speechless, and said: "If you give me all the embroidery work here to help you embroider, it is estimated that I will come over next time, and the eldest lady will not even let me enter the door again!" ”
Yun Ying smiled shyly: "No, no, my mother likes you the most, since I came back last time, I have been praising you in front of me, saying how Sister Fei Kite knows how to be polite and quiet, how to be generous, and said that this is like the real lady of everyone, anyway, it is a good praise for you and count me down by the way!" ”
Yi'er smiled, thought for a while, and said, "I'm going back later, I just want to help you embroider, I can't live in your house!" ”
"Sister Flying Kite, why don't you bring it back and help me do it!" After saying that, he realized something, and he was a little depressed, and said, "Forget it, if you take my embroidery back to do it, what will it be!" ”
Yi'er shook her hand and said, "Otherwise, this will be fine anyway, let's do embroidery work together for a while, do a little bit is a little bit, how much can be done, what do you think?" ”
Yun Ying was full of willingness, so the two of them started embroidery work in the house, Yun Ying's girls really didn't dare to help embroider a needle and thread, only helped with the line on the side, and Yi'er let Liuying Qingli only help the line to do chores, she re-drew the pattern, and let Yun Ying do the work of embroidery alone.
The embroidery pattern drawn by Yi'er is simple and generous, the most important thing is that it saves a lot of trouble to embroider, Yun Yao likes it very much, and Yi'er draws a few more embroidery samples, so that when someone comes to Qinglan Courtyard to invite the two of them to dinner, Yi'er has already drawn six patterns out, Yun Yao pestered Yi'er, until Yi'er promised to send someone to send a few more simple embroidery samples after going back, she happily took Yi'er's hand and went to Qinglan Courtyard.
Accompanied Qu to lunch, Yi'er expressed her gratitude, and quit Qu's, Yun Yao reluctantly sent people outside the second gate, until she saw Yi'er get into the carriage and go out of the upside-down room, and then she went back.
