Chapter 182: The House
Liu Yan is very concerned about this matter, it seems that he is much more concerned than Liu Fang himself, that eager energy, people who don't know still think that it is the fourth princess who is going to be married.
"Queen Mother, where are the third sister's princess mansions going to choose?"
Queen Cao rarely had such a moment of leisure, Liu Yan came over and beat her legs on duty.
I thought she was just beating a few times to make a look, but I didn't expect Liu Yan to clench her fists with both hands and fall together, which is quite orderly, and the position is not wrong.
Empress Cao wondered: "When did you practice this craft?" ”
Liu Yan was happy: "I would have known it a long time ago, I used to beat my grandmother and aunt." My grandmother's legs were not good, my aunt's waist was not good, and I specially asked Langzhong, who lived in Xitou at the time, how to beat it and where to beat it. But I don't have any energy in my hands, and I always beat it twice, and they won't let me do my filial piety. ”
Empress Cao's heart suddenly soured.
In the past few years, her daughter was not around, and Queen Cao didn't know what she ate for three meals a day, whether she liked it or not, and whether she was in good shape. In the summer, the clothes don't know if they fit or not, and the jackets in the winter don't know where the wadding can be warm, and if there is less cotton, it will definitely not be warm. If you use too much cotton, it must be extremely heavy on the body, and it is also inconvenient to bend and stretch the arms.
…… When a mother thinks about her child, every subtlety will come to mind.
When the mother and daughter met again after a few years, Liu Yan's appearance almost distressed Queen Cao to death. Liu Yan's hair was half long and not short at that time, and he was always running outside and getting a tan, looking like a tomboy.
"Well, there are three places to choose from in the Princess's Mansion. One is where your big sister lives, it's very close, but the mansion is a little smaller. What about the other place...... "Empress Cao paused: "The people of Zongzheng Temple picked it, and it is very close to the Qinwang Mansion. ”
"Don't." Liu Yan said quickly: "It's good to live anywhere in such a big capital, why are you next to those people?" Look up and don't look down to see disgusting enough. ”
Empress Cao scolded her lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, that's your uncle." But in fact, in Queen Cao's heart, she didn't feel that what Liu Yan said made sense.
What do those people in Zongzheng Temple think, Queen Cao also understands that it is nothing more than parents who feel that there is nothing in the world, and King Qin is also the biological father no matter how he is, and arranging the Third Princess's Mansion so close to King Qin's Mansion is to make a father and daughter harmonious and harmonious to show the people of the world.
As for whether the third princess herself is happy or not, they don't think about it.
Women, even princesses, are similar to objects in their eyes, and in the eyes of these people, women should not and cannot have joys, sorrows, and sorrows, let alone the slightest rebellion against the laws of their father's and brother's monarchy and clan.
This mansion does not need to be opposed by the third princess, and Queen Cao herself is not happy.
"There is another place, a little farther away, in Zhirongfang, but the place is very large and spacious, bigger than your second sister's, and it is about to catch up with your eldest sister. The house is a little older, and if you want to choose this place, you need to renovate it. ”
"It's better to be bigger." Liu Yan was not confused at all: "There are more and more people in Beijing now, there are more and more officials, there are more rich people, and the places in Beijing will become more and more expensive. ”
Empress Cao was a little surprised: "How do you know this?" ”
"Some of them I heard about it, and some of it I figured it out myself. In the past, when there was a war, some of the people in Beijing fled, and some of them were gone. But now that the world is stable, the little brother said that the capital last year, the year before last, there were ...... in the increase in Dingkou in the past two years" She can't remember the specific number clearly, but she probably still knows: "It has increased by more than two percent and nearly three percent." Many empty houses have also regained their owners, and it's only been two years, so they will definitely snowball more and more in the future, right? ”
Empress Cao nodded in approval: "You are not thinking nonsense, what you said is very right." ”
Empress Cao was a little relieved and a little emotional.
The daughter is finally no longer like a tomboy, and her temper is much better than when she first entered Beijing, and now she has a degree of advance and retreat, and she has something to say, how can Queen Cao not be happy? But at the same time, she also felt a little emotional-it seems that it is only a blink of an eye for a young child to grow into a girl.
As soon as the child grows up, sooner or later he will leave his parents.
"It's warm these days, and you and your third sister can go and see the place when you have time to see which one she likes. When you go back, you first show her the pattern of the house, and you can have a number in your heart. ”
Liu Yan happily hugged Queen Cao's waist and said, "Queen Mother, you are the best!" ”
"Alright, don't bother me. By the way, Mr. Cheng sent you your homework yesterday, and praised you, saying that your words have grown a lot, and you can also recite two limerick poems, yes, I finally know how to work hard, and your father is also very happy. ”
Liu Yan smiled, his face next to Queen Cao's clothes.
Empress Cao stroked her smooth and neat hair.
Another year has passed, and Liu Yan can no longer dress up as before. Braids, double mustaches and the like are less combed, and the hairstyle gradually becomes complex and feminine......
This means that she has grown up and will soon be in her prime.
When Liu Yan went back, they were holding a big box with bean soup, and the box contained the mansions that Queen Cao just said.
These houses were built in the previous dynasty, and the original owners ...... Well, of course, they are all ownerless now, and the princes and princesses are going to get married, so they can naturally be given priority.
"Third sister, come on, let's take a look first." Liu Yan said: "As for the house, let's go out of the palace in two days to see it with our own eyes." ”
"Thank you."
"You and I will see each other." Liu Yan commanded the palace maids of Fanglu Hall to empty the things on the big bookcase, and then asked people to take out the picture and spread it out on the big case.
The picture was so detailed and large that it could not fit on the largest table, so it was simply spread on the floor.
Liu Yan looked at it very carefully.
Although she doesn't understand the rules of these mansions, there are already two sisters who are married, and Liu Yan knows what their princess mansion looks like.
"This house is indeed a little smaller." Liu Yan said: "But it's close to the eldest sister and the palace." ”
"Hmm." Liu Fang looked at it very seriously.
Can you not be serious?
This is the place where she will live for the rest of her life, how long is a few decades, of course, you have to choose a suitable one.
"This one is big." Liu Yan looked at the one spread on the ground: "It is divided into two roads, there is a small garden in the middle, and there is a big garden at the back, this place is really not small." There is a lake in the big sister, although there is no one here, but it is more gradual, and it is built exquisitely. ”
Liu Fang looked all the way to the place she was pointing.
Place is really big.
In fact, Liu Fang doesn't care too much about the size, not necessarily the bigger the more comfortable.
"Third sister, which one do you think is better?"
