Chapter 17 The courtyard is deep and difficult to enter
The Zhang family was very excited, but Zhang Xiyue couldn't be happy, so she came out of the upper room under the pretext of freshening up, and when she walked to the courtyard, she suddenly remembered something and turned around and came to the backyard.
In the past few days, Fang Zhong's illness has been cured, and after a few days of eating in a row, his face has returned to normal, and he is sitting at the door looking at the stable in a daze.
Zhang Xiyue coughed and walked over, "Yuan Gongzi." ”
Fang Zhong saw that she immediately stood up, "It's the young lady who is here... I haven't thanked you in person! He said with a deep bow.
The tattered clothes on his body have been changed, Zhang Xiyue was careful not to let Mrs. Zhang put on his clothes, and at this time his hair was neat and his face was clean;
Fang Zhong is more and more clear-eyed, straight-nosed and square-mouthed, born with a bit of elegant temperament, like a handsome son of a family, but the eyebrows are slightly wrinkled, locked with deep sadness and resentment.
Zhang Xiyue looked at him a few times, and said politely: "Yuan Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, I didn't mistake you as the dragon and phoenix among people."
"It's over," Fang Zhongyue gave another salute, "Miss is looking for me... There's something, right? He heard the porter Wang talk about the eldest prince's proposal, so he asked.
"Yes, I agreed to the marriage of the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi, you... Is there anywhere else to go? ”
At this time, Fang Zhongyue had no relatives and no reason, and there was no place for him to stand at the end of the world, so he was stunned for a moment and immediately said: "Oh... I'm cured, so I'm leaving. ”
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that." Zhang Xiyue hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I mean, if you don't have any other place to go, you can follow me to the Prince's Mansion... I know you can't stay and be a servant, and there may be a chance to help you find a career over there. ”
Fang Zhongyue grew up in a scholarly family, with a bit of arrogance in his bones, Zhang Xiyue has always respected him, which is the most convincing to him.
He sighed slightly and asked, "Miss, let's go... But Ming Media is marrying? ”
Zhang Xiyue smiled bitterly and shook her head, "How is it possible, it should just be a partial house, Zhu Gaochi is in his twenties, and it is impossible for him not to marry a wife." ”
"Alas..."Fang Zhongyue sighed, he wanted to say something but didn't say it, he imagined in his heart that it was not worth it to imagine that she was such a beautiful and kind good girl as a concubine.
Of course, Zhang Xiyue felt the same way, the reason why she agreed to this family business was not only to repay the kindness of the Zhang family, but also to have her own ideas after a day and a night of careful consideration.
At this time, he smiled bitterly: "There is no way, my little arms can't twist my thighs, I can't embarrass my father and mother."
Fang Zhongyue nodded, "Understood, I think... Go to the Prince's Mansion with the young lady. ”
"Then it's decided, Yuan Gongzi." Zhang Xiyue smiled and walked to the front yard...
As Zhang Xiyue guessed, the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi already has a wife and two side concubines, so the marriage is very simple.
A lot of various gifts were given, and on the day of the wedding, only a small sedan chair carried by four people was sent, and Zhu Gaochi naturally couldn't come and let Zhou Puxin, the chief official of the house, represent it plenipotentially.
The Zhang family's side was full of lights as if it was the New Year, and the eldest son Zhang Qingquan and his wife also rushed over, and when they saw that only one housekeeper and two subordinates came, they felt very uncomfortable, Zhang Hongsheng couldn't help cursing in his heart!
He originally hoped that he would be promoted to an official and make a fortune by climbing with the prince! At this point, it seemed hopeless.
Although she is an adopted daughter, she is very affectionate, Mrs. Zhang tearfully sent Zhang Xiyue to the sedan chair and repeatedly told this and that, and the family watched her leave.
Zhang Xiyue only brought a few clothes with her, and Yin Xiaomoss and Fang Zhongyu were inevitably lonely in their hearts and didn't say anything.
Zhang's house is not far from the imperial city, and two quarters of an hour later he came to the front of the Great Prince's Mansion, and when he was about to enter the door, someone suddenly shouted: "Stop!" Don't come in! ”...
