Chapter 20 Ten Years Turns Colorful
Ten years later, Jiangnan Liujiazhuang
There is a pond of golden carp in the middle of the courtyard of Fulingju, and a few little girls in their early teens gathered around the edge of the pool, scrambling to throw food into it, and the chirping was not lively.
Jiuhuan hurriedly came in from the outer courtyard, and saw them messing around and scolded:
"It's noon, why are you lazy here, but there is someone waiting in the little lady's house?"
A girl dressed in tender yellow with a face like spring buds smiled and replied: "The girl is asleep, don't let us disturb, and she has learned a new dish, this golden carp will have to be put into the pot tonight, we have to feed the fat quickly." “
"Yes, yes, Sister Jiuhuan, where do we dare to be lazy." Several other girls chimed in.
"Insolent little hooves." Jiuhuan pretended to be in a hurry, and it was inconvenient to talk nonsense with them, so he walked straight to the main house, and when he was about to enter the inner room, he lightened his steps and lifted the curtain, wanting to see if Rong Qianhua was awake.
"What are you doing with your brain, come in." The girl's voice is very good, sweet with a bit of heartiness.
Jiuhuan was overjoyed and hurried into the house.
I saw that Rong Qianhua did not look like she had just woken up, she was wearing a plain light purple stand-up collar middle shirt on her upper body, only embroidered with a crane pattern with wings on the neckline and cuffs, and a silver-gray satin dress on her lower body, she was lying in front of the table, copying something seriously, with long black hair like a waterfall reaching her waist, a wisp on both sides was slightly pulled up and pulled back, and a superb purple jade carved short hairpin leaned into it. A light and refreshing feeling arises spontaneously.
The girl looked up: "I learned the new silk rat osmanthus fish yesterday, and I will make it for you to taste tonight." Jiuhuan saw that her skin was like clotted fat, her eyebrows were lightly swept, her eyes were like water, her lips were red, and she didn't apply powder on her face, but she still couldn't hide her peerless appearance, thinking that the master was really getting better and better, and she felt amazing every day.
After a flash, I saw that there was an extra object in my little lady's hand, which was the envelope I had just brought in.
"Huh? Little Miss, you.... When will you take it from me.... Ah-" She covered her mouth in surprise, a few days ago, Liujiazhuang received a wave of friends on the rivers and lakes, among them there was a sharp-mouthed thin monkey-like man, who was actually a well-known thief blind kidnapper on the rivers and lakes, and one of the tricks he performed at the banquet was "holding the sheep by hand", the effect was exactly the same as just now, nothing could be seen clearly, and the things were in the hands of the other party, in just a few days, the little lady actually learned .....
"Jiuhuan, what else did the messenger say?" Rong Qianhua frowned, rubbing it carefully in her hand, Rong Ling'an's letter was once a month, and the content of this time seemed to be no different from usual, but for some reason, she always felt that something was strange.
"Ah, little miss." Jiuhuan finally remembered the purpose of his visit, "Lang Shan, who delivered the letter, said that the young master brought a message to Miss, he said that Huizhou's rice paper is good, the words are written on it, and it will not be wet if it is wet, so let Miss buy more and mail it back to him." “
Rong Qianhua was stunned, rice paper? Wet? With a move in his heart, he spread the letter in his hand on the table, picked up half a cup of water next to it and poured it on it.
"Miss, this is.." Before he finished speaking, he saw that the original ink on the letter gradually faded, and after half ringing, red handwriting slowly emerged. Jiuhuan was very surprised, thinking that it was still the little lady who was smart, and it turned out that this letter was another mystery.
Rong Qianhua picked up the letter in his hand again, and gradually, the corners of his mouth raised.
Another month and a half is the Mid-Autumn Festival, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Yuan Hong Emperor decided to do a big job in the palace, the queen has given a post to each family, not only the nobles in the imperial city, as long as it is an official who is above the fifth grade of the court, they must bring their families into the palace to go to the banquet, it is said that this banquet is not trivial, the emperor will have something important to announce......
At the end of the letter was Rong Ling'an's vigorous and powerful font: "When Fu Ling returns to Beijing, he must be in advance, secret, and take care." ”
Go back to the palace... It's been ten years....
After Rong Wanli got married, she followed her grandfather to Jiangnan, and when she came, she never thought that she would live here for ten years. When she first came here, she made up her mind that she would work hard, and she would never return to Xuzhou to see him if she didn't learn some skills, if she wasn't good enough, strong, and only relied on his protection, then she wouldn't be worthy of fighting side by side with him.
But just two months after arriving here, Rong Lingan discussed with her in a letter and asked her to go back, sometimes in a coquettish and scoundrel tone, which made her just feel funny. She had no choice but to report to him the results of her daily studies to make him feel that she was always by his side. Today it is guqin, sky dance, tomorrow is calligraphy and painting. When I was young, I learned a mastery of women's skills, and when I was older, I worshiped the martial artist Wen Yufan invited by Liujiazhuang, but unfortunately Master Wen said that she was not a good material for practicing martial arts, so she was diligent and able to make up for her clumsiness, and learned a dexterous swordsmanship to defend herself. Gradually, Rong Lingan seemed to have made up her mind, and no longer urged her to go back, but often shared with her what happened in Xuzhou and the Imperial City, and when the two discussed interestingly, there were four or five letters in a month.
This Mid-Autumn Festival palace banquet seems to be extraordinary, he must have heard from the palace in advance what inconvenience was written in the letter, just hope that I will return to Xuzhou as soon as possible, and then discuss. "Advance, secret, take care...."It seems that there are still people who don't want me to go back, and Rong Qianhua's thoughts in his heart gradually became clear.....
"Jiuhuan, go and prepare five high-quality horses, concentrate on serving, and you will definitely be able to use them in the next few days."
"Okay little miss, I'll go now." The Nine Rings slipped away.
Rong Qianhua lit the candlestick on the side, watching the firelight enlarge little by little, and the letter paper slowly turned into ashes......
Those who don't want me to go back are afraid that they will be disappointed....
