Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Gift Controversy
Prince Chung's Mansion.
On this day, Xiao Yu overheard the gossip of the servant, saying that the Yan Shizi gave a gift to the eldest lady of the Xie family a few days ago, which was a lotus hairpin carved by Gengen himself. Xiao Yu is depressed, it is a lotus river lamp, and a lotus hairpin, does this Yan Shizi want to dress Chang'an as a lotus! It's better to be his rabbit......
Just thinking about it, Xiao Yuan came over, and when he saw Xiao Yu's depressed face, he said with concern: "Yu'er, what's the trouble?" Isn't that what happened to Xie Changan? ”
Xiao Yu said sullenly: "Big brother, that Yan Shizi sent a lotus hairpin to Chang'an, Jue'er thinks that the rabbit is still suitable for Chang'an!" ”
Xiao Yuan smiled: "Then what's the matter, Yu'er carves some more rabbits to send to Xie Changan......" Before the words fell, Xiao Yu on the side had already disappeared, no need to think about it, he must have gone to bury his head in hard carving, but I don't know, who is better in the battle between this "rabbit" and "lotus"?
Xiao Yu thought that when she saw Xie Changan for the first time, she was still wearing a sword, so it was better to make a wooden sword for Chang'an! It's better to act than to move, and the servants of Prince Zhong's Mansion were ordered by their little prince to find wood again, and I don't know which piece of wood can get into the eyes of the little boy?
In a few days, Xiao Yu carved the wooden sword, and the hilt of the sword was naturally carved with a cute rabbit, Xiao Yu slightly modified, and couldn't wait to let Prince Zhong send someone to the Rong'an Hou Mansion, Prince Zhong couldn't help it, and thought about sending the wooden sword and the nine rings, small wood carvings and other small children's things in her own name. Although things are not valuable, they are all Xiao Yu's favorites, and the courtesy is light and affectionate!
Since then, if you hear that the Yanjun Mansion has given a gift to the Rong'an Hou Mansion, Xiao Yu will also give a gift when she gets the news, and the princess Zhong can't stand Xiao Yu's obsession, so she can only condone Xiao Yu's willfulness in her own name, and she has a headache for a while^
Yan Qinglan didn't care about Xiao Yu giving gifts to Rong'an Houfu, he felt that Xiao Yu was just a child's heart, so why not give some gifts, but there were too many things that Xiao Yu sent, even if they were all children's things, he had to pay attention to it, he vaguely felt that Xiao Yu seemed to be fighting in the ring......
Yan Qinglan was really bored in her heart, and she couldn't help but want to ask the people from Prince Zhong's Mansion to understand, thinking in her heart, if she asked Xiao Yu, it would be useless, if she asked Prince Zhong, it would make things bigger, and when the time came, Yu Changning's reputation would be hindered, and after thinking about it, she could only catch Xiao Yuan and ask for an understanding.
On this day, Yan Qinglan had just come out of the calligraphy and painting workshop, and by coincidence, she bumped into Xiao Yuan who came to the calligraphy and painting workshop. It is better to choose a day than to hit the day, Yan Qinglan will definitely not let go of the rare opportunity, and stepped forward and said, "Xiao Shizi, please stay." ”
"Yan Shizi, I have admired the name for a long time." Xiao Yuan couldn't help but feel a little weak when he saw Yan Qinglan, and asked Xiao Yu to give Xie Changan a gift, he really didn't do it properly, but he just couldn't see his younger brother sad, and he was helpless, so he had to quickly think about how to deal with it.
Yan Qinglan saw people coming and going on the street, and knew that it was not appropriate to talk here, if it was heard by someone with a heart next to her, she was afraid that it would damage Xie Changning's reputation, thinking about this, she invited: "Xiao Shizi, can you enjoy the face and taste the fragrance and sit here?" ”
Xiao Yuan had no reason not to allow it, so he immediately followed Yan Qinglan to Pinxiangju, and the two asked for a private room.
Pinxiangju is the best tea house in the capital, elegant and classical, all kinds of good tea is not a problem, there are elegant people who come and go, and there is an independent private room to provide, on weekdays, Yan Qinglan's favorite is to make tea and taste tea in this private room.
After the two of them were seated, Yan Qinglan was not in a hurry to speak, and took the lead in boiling water, and after making tea, there must be boiling water first.
When the water was boiling, Yan Qinglan said: "Please also ask Xiao Shizi for forgiveness, Yan has no other way to dare to come to Xiao Shizi." ”
Xiao Yuan was already embarrassed, and immediately said: "Yan Shizi is serious, what are you worried about, please talk to Xiao Shizi." ”
The water was boiling, Yan Qinglan poured the boiling water on the tea set, then put the tea into the tea pot, and then raised the boiling water and flushed it into the tea pot to make the tea turn, and then picked up the ou lid and scraped it lightly to remove the floating impurities, and then poured the tea into the tea cup and divided two cups of tea, both of which were seven points full, and handed Xiao Yuan a cup, a series of actions flowing. Xiao Yuan took it, smelled its fragrance, looked at its color, tasted its taste, and felt that his lips and teeth were fragrant for a while, and he couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!" Yan Shizi is a good craft! ”
Yan Qinglan chuckled and said, "Xiao Shizi praised it falsely! Please also ask the prince not to blame Yan for being rude, today is to make Brother Ling frequently go to Rong'an Hou's Mansion to give gifts, if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will damage Miss Xie's reputation......"
Xiao Yuan was embarrassed, got up and said, "Please don't blame Yan Shizi!" Yan Shizi didn't know, my younger brother was in trouble in Qingyun Temple before, and he was rescued by Xie Chang'an, the youngest daughter of the Xie family, since then my younger brother has remembered Xie Chang'an, but unfortunately, Xie Chang'an disappeared somehow, and my younger brother has never forgotten Xie Chang'an, Xu is Sister Xie looks alike, and Yan Shizi also knows that my brother is just a child's heart, and he may not be able to distinguish between Xie Chang'an and Xie Changning for a while, so he will do such a ridiculous thing, and ask Yan Shizi to forgive me...... "Half-truths and half-truths are more convincing, Xiao Yuan is well aware of this.
When the words fell, Xiao Yuan apologized to Yan Qinglan again.
Yan Qinglan hurriedly helped Xiao Yuan and said, "Xiao Shizi, it was Yan who was abrupt, I didn't know that the second lady of Rong'an Houfu had saved Brother Ling, and Yan was narrow-minded." "No wonder on the night of the Qiqiao Festival, Xiao Jue called Chang'an to Changning, which was the reason.
Looking at Yan Qinglan with such a personable demeanor, Xiao Yuan secretly sighed that Yan Qinglan was really extraordinary, if he was someone else, Prince Zhong's mansion would come in the morning to ask for an explanation, alas, such an outstanding person, my younger brother is afraid that there is no hope......
"Please also bear with Yan Shizi, my younger brother is just a child, besides, Prince Zhong's Mansion will not let him mess around, this, please rest assured Yan Shizi!"
"Yan is only afraid that it will damage the reputation of Miss Xie's family, so please ask Xiao Shizi to restrain some Ling brothers as appropriate!" Yan Qinglan smiled bitterly, how could he deal with Xiao Yu, who had broken his brain, and only hoped that Prince Zhong's Mansion would be able to control Xiao Yu and not damage Changning's reputation.
Xiao Yuan responded in a loud voice, "Yan Shizi, please rest assured, I will definitely restrain Yu'er!" ”
After the negotiation, the two had tea, chatted a few more words, and then dispersed.
Rong'an Hou Mansion.
Yan Qinglan had a headache for Xiao Yu's gift, Xie Changan also cried and laughed for the two of them competing for gifts, seeing that there were more and more ornaments in the house, on one side were elegant objects of Yishui, needless to say that they were sent by Yan Qinglan; On one side are all worthless gadgets, how many of them!
Because of these many objects, the Lin family was both happy and worried, Yan Qinglan gave a gift, the Lin family was happy, Yan Qinglan valued Xie Changning more and more, and Lin's heart became more and more determined. It's just that I don't know which Xiao Xiaogongzi of the Loyal Prince's Mansion is singing? In the long run, Xie Changning's reputation is afraid that it will be ruined again! Lin was already frightened by the previous rumors...... No, she still has to remind Xie Changan......
"Mother, why are you so sad, but what's wrong?" Seeing that the Lin family was worried, Xie Changan took the initiative to ask.
Lin looked at the objects sent by Xiao Yu and said, "An'er, the little prince of Prince Zhong's Mansion is afraid that it is inappropriate to go to Rong'anhou Mansion every day to give gifts, and after a long time, people who don't know are afraid that they will have to talk about it again...... Moreover, my mother is worried that Yan Shizi will have obstacles in her heart! ”
"Mother, the left and right sent by Xiao Yu are just some gadgets, and in the name of Prince Zhong, who dares to criticize? Mother, don't worry, as for Yan Shizi, I will tell him, how can Yan Shizi be such a stingy person, if so, An'er will mislook at him......"
"An'er, my mother can't say anything about you, you are holding the right and right, don't let someone with a heart take advantage of the loophole, how can you not know that rumors can kill people, An'er, my mother really doesn't want you to suffer anymore......" said and reddened his eyes again.
"Mother, don't worry! An'er has a sense of proportion, that Xiao Jue is just a child's heart, left and right is just for fun, and after a while, it will be boring...... Yan Shizi is such an outstanding person, how can he be more concerned about these small things, and the next time we meet, I will personally tell him, so, my mother can rest assured? ”
Hearing this, the Lin family has nothing to say, no matter what, Prince Zhong is the younger brother of the emperor's mother, can she still come to the door to find someone to reason? Alas......
After revealing these words, Lin suddenly remembered something, and said: "An'er, Ning'er's previous nurse Su Nanniang, the mother wants to invite her back to the house, Ning'er has been taken care of by Su Nanniang since she was a child, Su Nanniang is very familiar with all aspects of Ning'er, if there is Su Nanniang to teach you, An'er you can also learn more like ......, An'er, do you think it?" The Lin family didn't dare to assert herself, even now that Xie Changan gradually accepted her new identity, she gradually accepted them, and because of this, she treated Xie Changan more carefully, for fear that if she accidentally provoked Xie Changan, the feelings she had cultivated would be in vain......
Over the past few days, Xie Changan's good impression of Yan Qinglan has been increasing day by day, and the gifts he gave, whether he made them himself or not, are so in line with her wishes, as well as Yan Qinglan's letters, between the lines of the handsome and elegant words, are all love and affection for her, Xie Changan has been deeply involved in it unconsciously, and Xie Changan has become more and more regarded himself as Xie Changning...... Now she no longer has a sense of rejection for becoming Xie Changning, but is full of expectations!
Xie Changan bowed his head and agreed, thinking: "Mother, is this Su Granny really reliable?" ”
Lin patted Xie Chang'an's hand and said with a smile: "An'er, don't worry, this Su Granny is a child of the family, and she is loyal to the Xie family, An'er doesn't have to be afraid that Grandma Su will leak the secret, how can Niang Su be such a confused person, if you are not completely sure, she will definitely not come to ask you!" ”
Xie Changan was relieved at this time, at this time, she just wanted to walk towards Yan Qinglan, and the moth next to her could be avoided......
