CHAPTER XXIV
It was raining outside, and it was a dirt road, and the carriage was shaky and slow.
Sitting in the carriage, with a blanket on his body, he didn't feel the heat, which shows that he has been in the south for a long time, and the weather in the north is still a little unaccustomed.
"Second Miss, what did the girl from the Hou Mansion give you?" Yu Yan was young, and when she saw her master's eyes squinting, she asked in a low voice.
Yuan Niang took out the things, opened the veil, and saw an orchid-style hairpin lying on it, simple and generous, and it didn't look too valuable, but for Yuan Niang, who only had a few silver hairpins from childhood to adulthood, it was indeed a good thing.
Yu Yan saw that it was just an ordinary hairpin, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost, "How can such a big Hou Mansion send this thing, it's really stingy." ”
Zhuo Xiyu, who was originally squinting and taking a nap, opened his eyes violently, "Hugh has to talk nonsense, no matter what it is, you can't talk about it behind your back." ”
Yu Yan hurriedly lowered her head.
"Sister should also remember" Seeing that Wang's mother was not sitting in the carriage, Zhuo Xiyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
I secretly want to find time to talk about Yuyan well, and I can't talk nonsense in the future.
Yuan Niang nodded seriously, "My sister is awake." ”
Zhuo Xiyu glanced at the hairpin in the handkerchief, and smiled secretly in her heart It was really an ordinary cargo, it seemed that the Hou Mansion did not take Yuan Niang in her heart, so she was inexplicably relieved.
Yuan Niang put away the hairpin and handed it to Lan Mei, who was scurrying around with her eyes, and Lan Mei took it and received the package from the body.
This is a thing of the past.
Mother Wang, who was sitting in the carriage in front, raised the corners of her lips with a smile, and she was curious when she saw her in the summer.
"Mom is happy that the Hou Mansion sent the second lady hairpin?"
Mother Wang smiled and sat up straight, "I knew that I was in the same inn as the girl from the Hou Mansion, and I should have gone over a long time ago, but although the second girl was an unintentional move, how to say that she also got the hairpin sent by the Hou Mansion, and I have to talk to Mrs. Tai when I go back, just with the reputation of our Mansion and our status in the court, if we marry the Hou Mansion, we can also match." ”
Summer reminded, "If you really talk about family affairs, it should be the eldest lady of our house, and the two girls are just the same branch." ”
Hearing this, Wang's mother also felt reasonable, thinking of the eldest girl in the house, her face couldn't help but be proud, the eldest girl in their house is also a well-known talented girl in the capital, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the poems she made are also incomparable.
"But the slave maid heard that the prince of the Hou Mansion has always been in poor health, and no one has seen what he looks like, even the eldest lady is friendly with the girl of the Hou Mansion, and she has not seen the prince of the Hou Mansion many times." This is something that everyone in the capital knows, which further strengthens the curiosity of the important people about the son who has never shown his face.
Mother Wang seemed to feel like she was praising her uncle in the mansion, "That is, what is the identity of the prince, how can anyone see it, and he is not an ordinary person, Mrs. Houfu likes our eldest girl, I think this is not far from a happy event." ”
It is naturally a good thing to be able to marry the Hou Mansion, and Xia Ri pursed his lips and laughed when he heard it.
Finally, before dark, everyone arrived in the capital, the night rain became heavier and heavier, and there were not a few people on the street, and the shops on both sides of the street were closed, only the restaurant was still open, but it looked half-dead.
