Chapter 286: Miss Fang Er
There was an accident, but it rushed the marriage between Yiyu and Lu Jun, with the consent of Jin Qide, Jin's father and mother discussed with the Lu family on the same day, set the date for adopting the greeting, and even exchanged all the eight characters to ask in private.
Yiyu returned to the palace and sent Pingtong to Dafang's house to deliver a message.
When Pingtong saw the Zhao family, he was not as polite as the previous times, and consciously put on the style of the princess's maid, not sitting next to each other, holding his hands, standing straight and speaking:
"The day before yesterday, the princess heard that someone had falsely rumored that our second son wanted to marry the Yu family, and sent a slave to inform the eldest lady. In addition, please keep the mouths of the people in the house tight, don't talk nonsense everywhere, affect the reputation of your daughter's family, and let outsiders say that our Lu family has no rules. ”
Of course, Zhao's face was red and white with anger, she was much more shrewd than Lu's, and when she thought about it, she knew that the matter would spread out, it was the second room that was doing the ghost, and she sent Pingtong away with a good voice, and turned around to find Dou's bad luck.
Pingtong went back and reported Zhao's reaction in detail, and Yu Yu brushed the matter over, and was close to the two mansions that existed "only", and he really didn't want to turn his face, so he could only rely on small punishments and small precepts to warn them not to go too far.
There seemed to be a lot of bad luck in June, and on the last day of the month, another bad thing reached Yu Yu's ears, but fortunately this time it had nothing to do with their family.
"It seems that the girl born to the concubine of the Fang family, taking advantage of the fact that Lord Fang was out, pretended to be a ghost in the middle of the night to scare Mrs. Fang, and as a result, she was born prematurely. Tsk, the stupid boy in Fang Er was called out by his subordinates before dawn, and he made me sleep, but if it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to get out. ”
In the garden, Yi Yu sat under the verandah to feed the fish, and Gao Yang, who had been married for less than a month, slipped out of the princess's mansion and came to her to "relax" and spread gossip by the way.
Hearing this exciting news, Yi Yu shook his hand and threw all the remaining fish food into the lake, causing a group of koi fish to compete with each other, and the lake suddenly opened up layers of splashes.
"The child was born? Do you know if it's a man or a woman? ”
Gao Yang held his chin and thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "It seems that I gave birth to a daughter." ”
"Oh."
If it is really a daughter, then even if Fang Qiao has no luck, the Lu family gave birth to two sons for him, but in the end it was a fake.
In this regard, Yu Yu did not have a sense of schadenfreude, and the grudges of the same family had faded into a cloud of past events over time.
"You have recruited a colt, why don't you know how to change your words, Lord Fang and Mrs. Fang, who open and close their mouths, are not afraid that others will listen to the joke."
Faced with the correction of the remaining jade, Gao Yang said disdainfully:
"You haven't always asked your father to call him the emperor and your majesty, I've heard it a few times and I haven't seen you change your words."
"Hehe," Yi Yu laughed twice, hiding his embarrassment, "How can this be the same, I shouted out of respect for the emperor." ”
"Okay, okay, don't talk about this, I'm going to go to the West City Fu'an Park to play the bow game later, will you come?"
"Go ahead, I didn't sleep well last night, I'll go back to my room later."
"I know you won't go, then I'll go first, and I'll come back to you."
Gao Yang stood up stupidly and was about to go out, but Yi Yu saw that she only brought one attendant out of the house, and she didn't even have a purse on her body, so she asked worriedly:
"Have you loaded the money?"
Gao Yang turned his head to look at Sui Hu when he heard the sound, the little palace maid touched the cuffs of her belt, her expression was panicked, and when she saw Gao Yang's face was not good, she sweated on her forehead in the blink of an eye.
"Go back to the room and draw two tickets, and then fill the princess with a small bag of broken silver."
Gao Yang didn't reprimand his subordinates in front of her, but just glared at him fiercely, and said to Yu Yu embarrassedly:
"Well, I'll borrow you, and I'll call someone to deliver it tomorrow."
Yi Yu smiled, knowing Gao Yang's temper and not wanting to lose face for her, so he didn't politely say that he didn't want her to pay it back, and after a while, Pinghui took the money and sent her out of the garden, and then turned back to the Jade Courtyard to make up for sleep.
On the first day of the seventh month, the Lu family invited Mrs. Cheng to be a matchmaker and went to the Jin Mansion to propose marriage, and the Jin family did not make it difficult, politely welcomed people into the door, accepted a thoughtful acceptance gift, and left the Lu family and Mrs. Cheng to have a tea and dinner in the house, and discussed the day of the levy during the banquet, which was set after the ten days.
The Lu family had already prepared the dowry, and after returning home, he asked Lu Jingshan to come as a staff officer, and made a list of the few things that were missing.
Although Lu Jun did not have much time to receive salaries, he fortunately inherited part of Lu Zhongzhi's family property, he was young and his net worth was quite rich, and it was more than enough to prepare a decent dowry.
That's it, Yu Yu was afraid that her second brother's cash would not be enough, so she secretly posted a private room and asked Pingtong to send a small box of silver to the Lu family, because it was not too much, the Lu family understood her heart, so she didn't return it and stayed as a backup.
On the tenth day of the seventh month, after the exchange of Geng posts, the Lu family officially went to the Jin Mansion to get hired, and sent the marriage book together, Fang Hang was on an errand in the Ministry of Rites, and the Taishi Bureau was close, and this wedding period did not deliberately find someone to choose a good day and auspicious day, and left a whole month for Jin Lu'an to recuperate, and prepare a dowry for the Jin family, which was set on August 20 to rush over the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The reason why he was in such a hurry was to avoid Lu Jun being ordered to go to Huayin early, and the marriage would be even more difficult to handle at that time.
As soon as the news of Lu Jin's second mansion got married, it surprised many people, although Dr. Jin has a very good reputation in the literati circle, but the grade is not high, Lu Jun is the hottest young talent in the capital at the moment, and marrying with any family is indispensable to make the other party red, plus with the Wei Wangfu, there are not a few people who say sour things behind their backs.
Some of them reached Yi Yu's ears, but they only listened to it as a joke, and they didn't care about it, as if she was married to the Wei Palace, and it wasn't the same criticism.
At the end of July, Li Tai suddenly became busy again, going out early and returning late, going to the Literature Museum after the next court, staying in the Fengling Pavilion all day, coming back after dark, going to the study to read after dinner, and going back to the room to rest late at night.
Yi Yu was with him at first, but he really couldn't stand him, he often went back to sleep first, but he was always woken up by him halfway through sleep, and he was hugged and affectionate by him in a daze, and he did everything he had to do, and when he woke up the next day, he disappeared again.
Yi Yu was worried that Li Tai would burn his body like this, but he knew that persuasion was useless, so he asked the kitchen to cook an extra medicinal meal every day, relying on his good temper towards himself, and from time to time he took over the subordinate to bring tea and water to the study, and pestered him to lie on the couch for a while.
Otherwise, he went directly to the literature museum with a few handmade snacks to look for someone, found all kinds of excuses to disturb his work, and said some words that his parents said to him, but in fact he knew that he was not interested in them, so as to let him relax and have a moment and a half of leisure.
At the end of the month, on the morning of the 27th, after Li Tai went out to the court, Yu Yu asked people to spread straw mats and wooden planks in the courtyard, intending to dry all the volumes in the study before the arrival of autumn, so as not to be damp in winter.
She sat on a wicker chair under the courtyard wall, holding a book to read, Pingtong Pinghui instructed the little maids to do things, and she would turn her head from time to time to explain a few sentences.
As soon as the books were moved out, the porter sent an invitation to Yu Yu, Pingtong returned to her to wait, and saw that she looked at the different colors on the face of the invitation, so he asked softly:
"Master, whose family is the banquet?"
"It's the Zhongshu Lingfang family," Yi Yu dropped the invitation card in his hand and handed it to Pingtong, "The second lady of his house is going to hold a full moon wine the day after tomorrow, and Mrs. Fang invited me to sit at the table." ”
Pingtong took it and looked at it, and first noticed that this post was exquisite, the cinnabar gold powder was trimmed, the paper was scented, and it looked very important, and the resignation was very formal.
Usually the full moon of the big family's Miss Yan, is to invite some female dependents with status and fame to sit at the banquet and drink, the jade is famous for calligraphy and etiquette, quite admired by some women in Chang'an City, and there was the honor of the three ladies in the ceremony, the conduct and talent are superior, it is not uncommon to be invited to the banquet by the Fang family.
"The slave maid heard that the current eldest lady of the house was originally born to a concubine, and was later entrusted to the name of the main house. As we all know, Lord Fang doesn't like extravagance, and there are even fewer banquets in the mansion, this time he made an exception, thinking that it was under love, but——"
Ping Tong stopped talking, and Yu Yu raised his head with interest, "But what?" ”
"However, in the early years, our Huaiguo Mansion had a quarrel with the Fang family, although the time has passed, but the gap between the two mansions is still there, and Mrs. Fang's invitation seems to be a little reckless."
"That's a good point." Yi Yu approved, then picked up the book again, flipped to the side he had just seen, and continued reading.
Seeing this, Ping Tong was embarrassed: "Someone else sent a serious post, or make a full moon for Miss Yan, if you don't go, it will seem stingy to spread it." ”
"Go, why don't you go," Yi Yu said, "You write a reply letter for me, and say that I will be there on time the day after tomorrow, and then go to Fang's house to inquire about who else they have invited." Also, don't let the old lady know in advance, and I'll talk to her when she hears about it. ”
Tong couldn't guess what Yu Yu had in mind, so he went down to do something.
When it was almost lunchtime, Pingtong came back with Yu Tong and reported in front of Yu Yu:
"Back to the master, a manager of the Fang family said that Mrs. Fang sent a lot of posts out, not only invited a few Mrs. Shangshu, it is said, it is said that Princess Changle and Princess Han will also be present."
Since the beginning of the year, Yu Yu has never met with Changle again, Changsun Xi only met once on the South Lake last month, and now the new and old grudges have come together, I don't know if it's a coincidence, or who is doing it on purpose.
