038 Cousin Rou's invitation
At the beginning of August, when the summer was at its peak, Wang Xuanrou came to Xianyun Pavilion.
Wang Xuanrou, who was dressed in a gentle pink placket skirt with a light and elegant appearance, was supported by the big girl Yingchun beside her, walked into the hall and looked around, and a smile rose on the corner of her mouth: "You are a clean and chic place here." There is no appreciation and envy in his eyes.
Lin Yu'an lowered his head and smiled slightly: "Thanks to my grandmother's care, I am just an orphan girl, and I can live here, and I think of my grandmother's goodness and second aunt's goodness."
This was said beautifully, Wang Xuanrou walked to the side and sat down on the ebony magnolia chair with satisfaction, Qiu Nu had already served tea, and then retreated quietly.
The sound of summer cicadas, in the afternoon when the scorching heat is steaming up, is a little noisy in the ears.
It has been almost a month since Lin Yu'an moved to Xianyun Pavilion, and this is the first time Wang Xuanrou has come to her.
I didn't expect Wang Xuanrou to be very tolerant, and she didn't mention her intention for a long time, but unfortunately Lin Yu'an is also a wear-resistant character, so she sat with her, from yesterday's rain to today's sun, there is really nothing to say, and it is even related to the recent hot news in the capital.
Wang Xuanrou is the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family, and she is also a talented noble daughter in the capital, and she can often walk around the house, and she is discussing marriage recently, so she knows a little more about the affairs of the capital than ordinary boudoir women.
She immediately said that King Luochuan was scolded by the emperor because he accidentally shot a golden rooster of the emperor, and was sent to the fief after being reprimanded.
Talking about the royal matter in private is a big disapproval, no matter whether Wang Xuanrou is unintentional or intentional, Lin Yu'an doesn't want to continue talking to her, so he looks for an opportunity to divert the conversation: "What does Cousin Rou have on her mind today?"
Wang Xuanrou naturally noticed that she was speechless, so she followed Lin Yu'an's words and changed her hair, she showed a little embarrassed on her face, and then said softly: "I also know that cousin, you don't like to be lively the most, but if you stay in the house all day long, it will inevitably wilt after a long time, why don't you go to the lake with me tomorrow."
Lin Yu'an subconsciously wanted to refuse, she didn't forget Wei's mention, at this time the Wang family was in chaos, she was already embarrassed, it was best to stay in the house quietly.
But Wang Xuanrou's next words made her hesitate: "At that time, there will be many young ladies from the family, young ladies from the Roufei family, and young ladies from the British public family...... Mother also means this, let you go out and walk around more, so that when it is Rongguogong's birthday, you will not be timid. ”
Rong Guogong's birthday was the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and her grandmother had mentioned to her before that she would let her go for a walk and get to know some noble girls, she was not enthusiastic about it in her heart, but when she heard that the young lady of the Roufei family would also go to the lake, she was a little excited, and she faintly had an urge to go.
She nodded to Wang Xuanrou and said, "Since Cousin Rou invites me, Yu'an will not be polite with my cousin, when will I visit the lake, my cousin will tell me, and I will prepare in advance."
After all, she lives in the Wang family, and going out also represents the face of the Wang family, if she doesn't look good, she will lose the face of the Wang family, and it is essential to prepare the clothes and clothes in advance.
Wang Xuanrou heard Lin Yu'an's readily agreed, and immediately became happy, thinking that since it was so easy, why did she make so many detours.
"On the ninth day of the first month of this month, I will go to Mochizuki Lake in the south of the city to play, you don't have to prepare too much, my mother will prepare one for you according to my example."
Hearing this, Lin Yu'an smiled gratefully at Wang Xuanrou: "That being the case, please also ask Cousin Rou to help me thank my second aunt."
Wang Xuanrou left satisfied, but Lin Yu'an fell into deep thought again.
Why did Wang Xuanrou come to find herself, there are many sisters in the Wang family, there is no more than herself, and there is no less than herself, but she intends to bring herself, why is this?
She didn't know why the Qi family was hostile to her mother, so that her mother went to the nunnery, what kind of character was the eldest aunt and grandmother she had never met, the battle in the middle palace was like fire and water, and what was the relationship between the Wang family and the Xue family?
These secrets that can't be revealed, if you can't figure them out, I'm afraid that taking back your mother will only be far away.
Lin Yu'an couldn't help but feel a pain in his temples when he thought about it, picked up the tea that was no longer hot, and held the warm porcelain tea cup in his hand, Lin Yu'an couldn't help but feel far away.
Wang Xuanrou, who returned to the East Cross Courtyard, went straight to Jinhua Courtyard.
Bypassing the carved screen of yellow rosewood, Mother Qian was pinching the corners of Yu's forehead sitting on the big kang near the window, Yu's eyes were half-squinted, and she leaned comfortably on the big red pillow.
There is an ice basin in the corner of the house, and there is a faint coolness and mist between the beams.
Mother Qian saw Wang Xuanrou and whispered to Yu: "The big girl is here."
When Yu Shi heard this, she opened her eyes, and saw her pink and beautiful daughter walking over, she motioned for Wang Xuanrou to sit down on the embroidery stool beside her, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "She agreed?"
Wang Xuanrou gently thumped Yu's legs: "I agreed, it's very refreshing, but why does my mother have to let my cousin go with her, she has a wooden temperament, what can she do if she goes?"
A smile appeared on Yu's face: "Silly girl, you may see a few sons who will show you when you go to the lake this time, your grandmother annoyed me because of Yin Xiaoniang's affairs, and she didn't even care about your family affairs, you took the person on her heart with you, she can't just ask."
Speaking of this, Yu sighed lowly and said angrily: "That little hoof born by Yin Xiaoniang actually dared to choose a husband for you, relying on your father to love her, I really thought I was a concubine."
Speaking of Wang Xuanrui, Wang Xuanrou's face also gloomy, but she soon returned to normal, and said with some loss: "My father has loved her more since she was a child, and although Yao'er and I occupy the name of the concubine, it is nothing more than that."
When Yu heard this, he grabbed Wang Xuanrou's hand and said with pity: "You can't say that, you still have the foreign family of Rongguo Mansion, such a prominent backing, but Wang Xuanrui can't have it."
Thinking of the Rongguo Mansion and her grandmother, the Duchess Rongguo, treated her well, Wang Xuanrou had a smile on her face, and nodded her head: "Mother is right, I still have my grandfather!"
As she spoke, she fell on Yu's knees, and Yu reached out and gently touched the lotus pink bead flower on her bun, and said thoughtfully: "On the ninth day of the lake, you still don't get too close to the girl of the Xue family, you must know that your grandmother has some taboos against the Xue family, you must not touch her taboos."
Wang Xuanrou naturally understood what Yu said, and she responded obediently: "What the mother said, the daughter saved."
At this time, in the Dusk Snow Courtyard, Yin Xiaoniang's mother and daughter were also talking.
Because of Mrs. Wang's beating before, the Yu family did not go toe-to-toe with Yin Xiaoniang again, and the things that should be in her house were not mean, because she was afraid of heat after pregnancy, the ice basin in Yin Xiaoniang's house was twice as much as that in Jinhua Courtyard.
In the inner room of Jinhua Courtyard, Yin Xiaoniang sat on the low couch behind the splendid beauty lotus embroidery screen, the coolness in the room was coming, outside the house Yunchun commanded the little girl to take a ladder to catch cicadas, Xiyan came in with a gold-painted tray, and two bowls of sweet and sour sour plum soup were served in an ice-cracked porcelain bowl, which looked extremely tempting in the hot summer.
Xiyan and Yunchun are both people around the old lady, and now they come to serve Yin Xiaoniang, which can be described as great honor and decency.
Xiyan was thoughtful and pleasing, and at this time she lightly put the bowl on the small table next to the low couch, and bowed slightly: "Little lady, second miss, the sour plum soup just taken out of the ice cellar, taste it."
Yin Xiaoniang nodded and asked her to go down first, Xiyan naturally retreated obediently, Yin Xiaoniang and Wang Xuanrui muttered in the room.
