Chapter 32: Reasons for Not Marrying (1)
Yan Yan stood in the courtyard for about a quarter of an hour, because it was summer and she wore a lot, Yan Yan quickly sweated on her body and face, but fortunately, she temporarily thought of this in the carriage, dipped a silk handkerchief in some water, and wiped off the rouge gouache on her face, otherwise, she would have to make a joke.
When he was secretly slandering himself, he finally saw the eunuch shouting at the door, "Xuanyan Clan's female audience." ”
Yan Yan saw that Qinghe and Liu's mother didn't move, knowing that this meant letting her go in alone, and carefully recalled some memories left by the original owner, Yan Yan took a deep breath and walked into this solemn hall.
I don't know if it's because of the high building of the house, Yan Yan felt a cool air as soon as he entered the door, the heat on his body suddenly went down, and the person became sober, seeing the Queen Mother sitting on a chair a few meters away and looking at her, Yan Yan hurriedly knelt down, "The courtier Yan Yan knocked on the Queen Mother." ”
"Raise your head and mourn the house."
The Queen Mother spoke, Yan Yan had to comply, but she had some doubts in her heart, the original owner had to see the Queen Mother several times a year before, and the Queen Mother had always cared for the original owner, why was it different this time?
Not only did she stand outside for so long, but she also gave her a dismount when she entered the door, you must know that the previous owner had sat on a kang with the Queen Mother, and even had dinner on a kang table.
What's wrong?
Was she angry that she shouldn't have killed herself, or was someone saying something behind her back?
When Yan Yan was secretly checking herself, the Queen Mother also looked at Yan Yan, seeing that Yan Yan's little face had lost a circle, and there was a circle of dark circles under her eyes that could not be covered by fat powder, and then thinking of this child's previous sensible and calm atmosphere, the Queen Mother's eyes couldn't help but turn red and sighed.
"The Empress Dowager, the courtiers are very good now, please don't think of the courtiers, take care of yourself, your old man's health, health and peace are the greatest blessings of the courtiers."
After all, he has studied in college in modern times, and Yan Yan's ability to observe words and emotions is several grades higher than that of the original owner, so when he saw that the old man of the Queen Mother looked slightly relaxed, he hurriedly followed the pole and got up.
Sure enough, hearing Yan Yan's words, the Queen Mother's face was no longer tense, after all, the child in front of her was only fifteen years old, just a young man, how could she not seek death if something like that happened?
However, when it came to seeking death, the Queen Mother suddenly remembered that the Ma family had told her that Yan Yan was a person who had seen Meng Po, and he was also a person who was particularly gracious to Lord Yan, so it may not be that this child will not have any great achievements in the future.
"Yan'er, the mourning family has something to ask you, did you really see Meng Po?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, it should be her, but the courtiers don't know if it's a dream or a reality." Next, Yan Yan repeated what he said to Ma that day.
It's a pity that the Queen Mother didn't react when she heard this, she didn't believe it, she didn't say she didn't believe it, and when Yan Yan was trembling, she saw the Queen Mother ask again: "The mourning family heard that you dreamed of your grandmother that day, is that a dream or true?" ”
"Empress Dowager Qiyu, that is a dream, the courtier remembers, that day Aunt Rong brought the imperial doctor to the courtier's daughter, at that time the courtier was resting in bed, somehow she squinted, and had a dream, dreaming that the courtier was asking her grandmother for sin, but it happened that someone woke up the courtier, and the courtier thought it was the maid next to her, and she was a little angry." Yan Yan clearly remembered that he was very unhappy when he woke up because he got up, and he must have scared Ma and Aunt Rong, so he took this opportunity to make up for it.
"If you can be sure of this dream, why is Meng Po not sure about it?" After asking, the Queen Mother stared at Yan Yan again.
To be honest, she didn't see this child a few times a year, and she knew a little bit about Yan Yan's personality, when her sister was alive before, this child's heart was still a little lively and playful, but since her sister was gone, it was difficult for Yan Yan to have that kind of bright smile on her face.
It's not that her uncle and aunt treat her badly, but this child seems to have grown up overnight, sensible, knows that he has no one to protect him, and he has restrained himself a lot in doing things and being a person, and he tries not to be out of the limelight, especially in front of Yan Yu.
But the Empress Dowager seemed to hear a little different from Yan Yan's words, and then remembered what Ma had said, and the Empress Dowager sensitively noticed that Yan Yan seemed to be dissatisfied or suspicious of Ma.
Why is that?
Could it be that so many years of raising have really raised a white-eyed wolf who doesn't know how to be gracious, or is it that Ma is hiding something from her?
As soon as she thought of this, the Queen Mother no longer bothered about what she dreamed of, and simply asked Yan Yan about her future plans.
"Back to the Queen Mother, the courtiers obeyed the will of the Queen Mother and chose to become a monk."
"Oh? When did the mourning family make such a will, the mourning family heard that the Lu family is begging to marry you, your aunt means that this opportunity is good, although the eldest son of the Lu family is suffering from a hidden disease, but his heart is transparent, and he is honest and kind, you can separate the family after you marry, why don't you want to? ”
The Queen Mother really thinks that the Lu family is a good choice, Lu You's child she also inquired later, I heard that she has read a lot of books, don't look at talking, but calligraphy, painting, writing articles or anything is not bad, usually at home never fool around with the maid, except for reading, writing and painting, there is no other hobby, Yan Yan wants to marry in the past, how much worry do you have to save?
Although the other party is a concubine, and his fame, talent, wealth, status, etc., cannot be compared with Lu Ming, but these are all false, there is a man who knows cold and hot and is dedicated to himself, and is not better than these illusory things?
"Qi Yu Queen Mother, the courtiers are unwilling, there are four reasons, one is that the Lu family knows that day is the courtier's New Year's ceremony, but they just brought a person who has never been out of the house and has never participated in this kind of gathering and also suffers from a hidden disease, saying that the Lu family is an unintentional move The courtiers absolutely don't believe it, I don't know if the Queen Mother believes it?"
The Queen Mother was speechless when she heard this, and Yan Yan didn't force her to admit anything, but continued: "Second, Lu Shizi retired on the spot, and the Lu family echoed behind, seeing that the courtiers came back from the dead, the Lu family released words to say that the door of the Lu family would be open to the courtiers at any time, no matter who the courtiers choose, the Lu family will treat the courtiers well, how sincere these words are, the courtiers don't know." ”
After a pause, Yan Yan saw that the Queen Mother still did not react, and pulled the corners of her mouth, "Third, aside from the sincerity of the Lu family, even if the courtier agrees to marry the Lu family, no matter who the courtier chooses, the courtier will not have any happiness in the future, because Lu Shizi has a dislike in his heart, it is like a thorn in his heart, which will sting him from time to time to remind him, and the thorn in his heart is impossible for anyone to pull out." ”
