Chapter 200: Letters

After a warm stay, the couple talked about their goddaughter Yu Xiaocao.

"Chu Xue, what do you think of our daughter?" House Town affectionately called his lady's maiden name, and asked with a little apprehension in his heart.

Mrs. Fang pillowed on her man's hard arm, smiled slightly, and said, "You have a good eye, you are a cute and interesting girl." ”

The house town finally put his mind at ease, smiled innocently, and said with honor: "That's, can our girl be wrong?" I pondered, after the errand here, let's bring my daughter back to Beijing, train her to be a lady, recruit a son-in-law, and give birth to a cute and clever grandson, I have a good name, I will call Fang Wuluo, Wen Taowuluo, the grandson of my house town, will definitely be a general in the future......"

Mrs. Fang couldn't help but laugh out loud, gave him a blank look, and said, "You think very beautifully, you even think of your grandson's name!" Have you thought about it? Our little grass is not at the mercy of others, Xiao Nizi has the right idea! I've been looking at it for the past two days, and Xiaocao in the Yu family is worthy of most of the family! I'm afraid, she won't accept the path you arranged for her! ”

The house town suddenly looked like a deflated balloon, sighed, and said, "You are so right! When I first met my daughter, I thought about taking her back to Beijing to be your companion, but she resolutely refused. No matter how good Dongshan Village is, can it still have the capital? Everyone in Beijing is not good, so they have to nest in this place where birds don't and be an ordinary little peasant girl! ”

Mrs. Fang smiled: "This is the preciousness of our daughter, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, the rich and the rich cannot be lewd, with their own wisdom and hands, to create their own life." I'm a godmother, and I admire her a lot. Maybe, our daughter will become the second strong woman in the Ming Dynasty in the future! ”

Listening to his wife's high evaluation of Xiaocao, the house town was happier than if he had won the battle, and praised his daughter.

Mrs. Fang quietly listened to the man Lao Wang selling melons, and said that her daughter was amazing, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a gentle smile. Suddenly, she remembered the post on the table, and said softly: "Mingzhe, Princess Jing invited me to Xiaoxu, you said that I brought Xiaocao with me, how about it?" ”

"Princess Jing? Isn't she in Kyori? House Town sat up in a little surprise, looked at the beautiful face of the lady, and asked.

Mrs. Fang roughly told her own man about the convoy that she met Princess Jing in Weifu halfway when she came and came to this ancient Tang town together. House Town nodded slightly, and said, "It is estimated that King Jing is afraid that the princess will be sick at home, so let the second son take her out to relax!" After all, the princess's favorite youngest son has gone to sea, and he must be very worried! ”

Mrs. Fang pulled the quilt, watched the man lie down again, and said, "Yes, the little county king has been gone for half a year, if I were to be worried, I would be so worried that I couldn't eat and sleep......"

Seeing that Mrs. Madame's expression was gloomy, and knowing that she remembered that her knees were empty again, she gently patted her shoulder, hugged her tightly in her arms, and said softly: "It's not early, let's sleep......"

Nothing was said all night. Grass's biological clock prompts her to wake up early.

"Miss, the slave maid will wait for you to dress." Seeing that there was movement on the bed in the room, Pearl hurriedly came over to uncover the gauze tent, and looked at the little grass girl sitting on the bed in a daze with the quilt in her arms. Mrs. Fang was afraid that her daughter would not be used to coming to a strange place, so she sent her eldest girl over to serve her. It shows how much Madame attaches importance to the little grass girl!

Xiaocao was about to refuse, but when she saw Pearl holding a set of clothes with complicated and gorgeous fabrics, she couldn't help frowning slightly: "I'm going to go to the melon shop in a while, it's not convenient to wear this, right?" ”

Pearl hurriedly smiled and explained: "Our lady said, I will take you to visit the distinguished guests later, so naturally you should dress more formally." These are the clothes that our lady has embroidered by herself, and if you refuse, our lady will be sad. ”

Yu Xiaocao didn't say anything more, and with the help of pearls, she put on the clothes that represented a mother's love. The Ming Dynasty seems to be more popular in Hanfu, and the one on Xiaocao's body is a lilac smoke cloud butterfly breast-length skirt, with a goose-yellow placket and half an arm on the outside, and the chest is tied with a belt. The pink color, coupled with the texture of light gauze, lined with the white and delicate little face of the grass, has a bit of a beautiful feeling. The skillful hands of the pearl combed a delicate double bun to the grass, and embellished the red plum and gold silk hollow bead flowers, revealing a kind of nobility in simplicity.

Through the hazy bronze mirror, Xiaocao looked at the cute and slightly playful lady inside with wide eyes, and a hint of joy flashed in her heart. Everyone has a love for beauty, and Xiaocao is no exception.

When the well-dressed grass appeared in front of the house town couple, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes. This is exactly the dress of the girl they imagined in their hearts, Mrs. Fang held Xiaocao in her arms, no matter how she looked at it, she couldn't see enough. Xiaocao was embarrassed by the two of them!

After breakfast, Mrs. Fang took her daughter to Mrs. County's other courtyard by the sea, and Princess Jing stayed here. Xia Furong didn't want to miss every opportunity to see Zhu Ergongzi, so she wanted to follow, but was rejected by Mrs. Fang on the grounds that her condition had not healed.

Xia Furong felt even more aggrieved in her heart: in the past, her aunt took her to other places as a guest. Now that she has been robbed of such an opportunity by a cheap farmer, how can she not hate?

The courtyard of the county lady, located between Tanggu Town and the wharf. House Town rode on horse, escorting his wife and daughter, his heart was extremely satisfied, and the smile on his face never stopped. It wasn't until Mrs. Fang and Xiaocao were invited into the courtyard by the subordinates of the other courtyard that he reluctantly left and headed for the dock.

At this time, Princess Jing was preparing tea and snacks and enjoying the scenery in the garden. At this time, Mei Xiang's face was excited, and she hurriedly trotted all the way with a gauze skirt.

"Panicked, what kind of system?" Lan Xiang, who was older than her, hurriedly scolded softly.

Mei Xiang grinned at her with a big smile, and with a slight tremor in her voice, she shouted softly: "Princess Niangniang, the king of Xiaojun...... He ...... "When she came, she ran too fast, and she was a little out of breath when she spoke."

Princess Jing, who was leisurely half-leaning on the chaise longue's couch, immediately sat up straight when she heard the news of her youngest son, and asked nervously, "Yang'er...... Yang'er, what's wrong with him? ”

Mei Xiang took a hard breath and finally gasped evenly. The big smile on her face made Princess Jing's anxiety and nervousness relax a lot.

"Princess Niangniang, the little county king has a letter!" Mei Xiang's voice was filled with infinite joy.

"Yang'er has a letter? Hurry, hurry! Present it!! Princess Jing urged eagerly. Mei Xiang took three steps and made two steps, almost tripped over the gauze skirt under her feet, and before she could stabilize her footsteps, the letter in her hand had been snatched by Princess Jing.

The letter was sent from Quanzhou to Beijing, and was quickly forwarded. Looking at the familiar font, Princess Jing's eyes moistened slightly. She blinked vigorously from the tears in her eyes and looked greedily at the contents of the letter.

In the letter, Zhu Junyang wrote about his life on the ship and some interesting things at sea. The focus is that he hunted a shark at sea with his own hands, and made shark fins into fins, and this time he sent it back with a letter to his mother to taste.

Reading this, Mei Xiang and Lan Xiang both joked that the little county king was really filial, and he didn't forget to bring good things to the princess outside. Princess Jing even happily ordered: "At noon, I will take the shark fin that my son hunted with his own hands and make soup to taste." It must be a thousand times better than what is on the market. The two big girls said yes one after another.

Zhu Junyang also said: "By the time the mother received the letter, the child had almost arrived in Nanyang. I heard that the customs there are very different from those of the Central Plains. There is no winter there, and there is no snow in sight. The people there were dark-skinned, high-nosed, and looked slightly different from Middle-earth. I heard that on the other side of the vast sea, there is a kind of tribe with shiny black skin that looks like a chimpanzee. If there is a chance, the child wants to go and take a few portraits of the characters back to the mother and concubine. ”

Finally, he said: "Parents are here, not far away, forgive the children's unfilial piety, and can't accept joy." Mother concubine, there are many places in the Ming Dynasty where people are not clothed and hungry, and the emperor said that there is a crop in the West - corn, which does not pick the land, has a high yield, and can be eaten as a staple food. The child's task this time was to bring back the corn seed and try to grow it. I believe that at that time, the introduction and planting of corn will definitely benefit the general public. At that time, there will be no famine in the Ming Dynasty, and the people of the world will be able to live and work in peace and contentment......"

Princess Jing looked at it, and her tears couldn't stop flowing: "It's been almost half a year, and I just arrived in Nanyang." I'm going to go to the West soon...... When will my Yang'er come back! ”

Lan Xiang hurriedly comforted: "Don't be like this, princess, the little prince wrote back to reassure you." You must know that this letter makes you sad, no wonder, with the filial piety of the little county king, you will definitely blame yourself. Think about it, the little county king has gone to the South Seas, and it will definitely not be long before the West Oceans. Perhaps, in a few months, the little county king will be able to appear in front of you and surprise you! ”

Princess Jing gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, nodded and said, "Well, my son will definitely come back as soon as possible." After finding the corn, I said that I would not let him go so far again. You want to mess with me! ”

"Niangniang, Mrs. General Zhaoyong, I am here to visit with my beloved daughter." The housekeeper of the outer courtyard came in a hurry and said.

Princess Jing finally remembered that she had invited Mrs. Fang to come over for a while, and said busily: "Hurry up, please." ”

The souvenirs brought by Mrs. Fang and Xiaocao are not precious things, but a limited number of roast chicken and osmanthus duck gift boxes from Zhenyulou. This was Yu Xiaocao's idea.

In Xiaocao's opinion, what rare objects have you never seen in the princess? When it comes to gifts, of course, you have to choose the right ones, not the expensive ones. The last time we dined together, the princess seemed to have a soft spot for osmanthus duck, and it was right to send this! Besides, the gift box set of Zhen Yulou is not available to everyone. The gift box is beautifully designed, and it is quite dignified to give as a gift.

Sure enough, after Princess Jing received the gift, it was so rare that she couldn't do it, and she said that she had a good day today. Knowing that it was a gift from Xiaocao, Princess Jing praised the little girl.
