Chapter 298: Pingyang

Chapter 298 Binh Duong

Several ladies glanced at each other, and Lu Shiyin also knew that he had just spoken, so he didn't dare to make any more noise, pursed his lips and lowered his eyes to play with the bracelet on his wrist, and the other ladies all peeked at the old lady who had been silent.

Du Shi coughed lightly, and said with a decent smile on his face, "You are now living in my Zheng Mansion, there is a maid and an Eminem by your side, the two of you are busy outside, if outsiders know, they still think that my Xingyang Zheng family can't afford to use people!" ”

Du Shi's words are soft on the outside and rigid on the inside.

Ran Yan understands what they mean, the Xiao family has always liked to marry with the Du family and the Lu family, and it is very rare to marry a woman from the Zheng family in Xingyang, and now that they are married to Ran Yan, Ran Yan has to borrow the momentum of the Zheng family in Xingyang, they are naturally happy, but after all, Ran Yan is surnamed Ran and not surnamed Zheng, if you can take this opportunity to knock on Ran Yan and make her agree to bring a woman from the Zheng family in Xingyang to accompany her, this is the best.

Originally, the Du clan was nine out of ten about this matter, thinking that Ran Yan came from the Fallen Clan after all, and she was both soft and hard, so she must have no way to shirk it, but at this moment, looking at her face that had been cold and unchanged, she was a little uncertain.

But when these words were released, she wanted to see how Ran Yan shirked it, and she didn't believe that Ran Yan dared to refuse directly.

"Thank you, Madame, for your kindness." Ran Yan replied softly, and before a few people were happy, he immediately said, "But I have never liked to be too close to people, Gelan and Wanlu have been raised by my side since childhood, and they are like sisters." I live idle all day, but it is not a big deal, if the lady takes care of it, add a few rough maids and maids who sprinkle and sweep in the yard, Ah Yan is grateful.

Several ladies had different expressions, especially Du Shi's face, which was very exciting, and the old lady still drooped her eyes, as if she hadn't heard anything.

At the moment, Du Shi came to a more ruthless, straightforward way, "I see that the evening green complexion in your house is acceptable, but the other one, I heard that the year is double ten, and you are disabled, and it is not suitable to be a companion room, you are now also implicated with my Xingyang Zheng family, we have prepared a companion room for you under the discussion of a few concubines, after passing the house, it is just a concubine, I think Yan Niang will not refuse our kindness, right?" ”

As soon as she said this, Ran Yan didn't have time to speak, but she heard the old lady snort softly.

Du Shi clearly coerced Ran Yan, saying that she had now borrowed the momentum of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and for such a trivial matter, she had to agree if she didn't agree. Du Shi is not a brainless person, but she doesn't think much of Ran Yan in her heart, so she said this.

After waiting for a while, but didn't see the old lady speak, Ran Yan said, "The grace of dripping water springs, this is the clan motto of my Ran clan, for the kindness of my grandfather's family, Ah Yan remembered it the moment he lived in the mansion." Xiao Langjun is deeply affectionate, and I don't think my family background is worthy of him, this is a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes. ”

Ran Yan just doesn't eat hard! The meaning of her words couldn't be clearer; I live in your house, and I borrowed the momentum of your family, so I will naturally treat the Zheng family as my mother's family, you better not force me, anyway, Xiao Song married me, and I am not married, I just moved back to my uncle's house, and I can still marry and stay in your family, but it's just icing on the cake!

Several ladies are people who often mingle in the circle of noble ladies, so they naturally immediately understood what Ran Yan meant, and it is also thanks to them that they have always paid attention to their appearance, otherwise they would have been dumbfounded at this moment.

There was a moment of silence in the room, but the old lady, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said, "Okay, let's disperse, I'm too old to hear the noise." ”

Du Shi wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say anything more, and several ladies got up, saluted the old lady, and quietly withdrew.

Ran Yan also followed, and when she walked to the outer room, the maid beside the old lady suddenly stopped her and said, "Yan Niang, this morning, the old lady seems to have heard you blow the flute and want to hear it." ”

Although Ran Yan didn't have a good impression of the people who were driven by these families for profit, he still maintained a respectful attitude towards a legendary woman like the old lady, so he turned around and asked Wanlu to go back to get the flute.

As the maid entered the inner room, the old lady had already lost her appearance of sleeping but not sleeping, and was kneeling on the Hu bed to drink tea in high spirits, when she heard footsteps, she didn't raise her head and said, "Sit." ”

Ran Yan knelt on the mat opposite with suspicion, and the maid served a cup of tea, which would be filled with spices in the Tang Dynasty's boiled tea, but this one was a green soup, exuding a faint fragrance of tea and bamboo leaves.

"The song Guan Shanyue you blow, it was taught to you by Xiao Yuezhi." The old lady put down the teacup and looked at Ran Yan.

Ran Yan said, "Exactly." ”

"The plum blossoms have reflected the mountain and the moon, and the flute is still around the Phoenix Terrace······ When I was in Longxi, I often played this song, and I am ······ It's been forty years, I haven't heard a song for a long time, and today I can't help but recall the past when I hear it, would you like to play it again for the old body? The old lady leaned forward as if to make a request.

Ran Yan didn't expect the old lady to be so polite, and hurriedly returned the courtesy, "It's an honor for Ah Yan to be able to play Xiao Qu for the old lady." ”

The old lady had a faint smile on her face, but it made Ran Yan feel that she was actually smiling very happily.

"You, you really look like A-Ning." The old lady sighed.

A Ning, Li Xiuning, the name of Princess Pingyang. The old lady is also surnamed Li, and she is also a royal family, and she is a sister and comrade-in-arms with Pingyang Gong, so she has always called her by her first name.

"The old lady is overrated." Ran Yan said.

The old lady glanced at Ran Yan carefully, and the more she looked at it, the more she looked like it, not because she looked similar, but because of the noble, calm posture and straightforward character in her bones. Lowering her eyes, the old lady turned to say, "Don't take their words to heart, and wait to be married in the Zheng Mansion with peace of mind." ”

The old lady really disdains the methods of the Du family, in her opinion, they are all petty family spirits who can't be put on the stage, and sometimes the methods used are not even calculated.

At first, the old lady barely stretched out her hand to take care of the things in the backyard, but later she even felt bored to look at it, so she didn't bother to talk to the mud.

In the same generation as the old lady, there are many women who do not let their eyebrows blush.

The twenty-four bachelors of Lingyan Pavilion, their wives do not have a fuel-efficient lamp, and the women who come out of the troubled times are like the old lady Li who avoids the resourceful type, and there are also brave women like Shu Niang, and there are also women who are still glorious after several dynasties of chaos like the old lady of the Xiao family.

Ran Yan bowed her head gently, today's old lady's attitude was much more enthusiastic than the previous one, she didn't know if it was because of the song "Guan Shanyue" or because of her performance today, in short, it was inexplicable that she won the old lady's eyes.

In his previous life, Ran Yan was very favored by the old people when he was dealing with official business, but he didn't expect that after the next life, he would still be so in the eyes of the old people.

After a while, Wan Lu came back with the flute, Ran Yan looked at the flute, couldn't help but smile slightly, took it and tried two notes, and said, "My son's comprehension of the rhythm is very poor, and he only remembers the tune, so don't blame you if you don't play it well." ”

Mrs. Li twisted the Buddha beads and smiled slightly, "Okay." ”

"Guan Shanyue" is the first piece that Ran Yan learned to practice Xiao Qu, with her perseverance, she has already played it a thousand times, even if she doesn't have to think about it, she can play it naturally, not to mention that she is attentive at this time.

The old lady squinted her eyes and listened quietly.

The song was very short, and at the end of the song, the old lady was still immersed in it, and after a long time, she said, "The fingering is pure, and you can also get the essentials one or two." ”

Ran Yan was a little embarrassed, she really didn't have any musical talent.

The maid on the side smiled slightly, "Yan Niang, the old lady is a master, and she hasn't praised others for a long time!" ”

Hearing this, Ran Yan knew that the old lady praised her because she felt that she worked hard. Ran Yan said with a smile, "As the saying goes, diligence can make up for clumsiness, but I also know that some things still depend on talent, and no matter how diligent you are, you can't reach the peak." ”

"Why are you working so hard?" The old lady was very satisfied with Ran Yan's self-knowledge, not arrogant or impatient.

"It's just joy." Ran Yan has always been like this, once he is determined to do something, he must do his best to do his best before he will give up.

The old lady's jaw. When people are old, they have a sense of fate, and they always feel that Ran Yan's appearance is to erase her regret for the early death of Princess Pingyang, "A-Ning was full of wisdom and fought on the battlefield, but in the end he was not able to shroud himself in horse leather, but he died due to dystocia, so he said·· …·· Woman······"

Listening to this inexplicable exclamation, Ran Yan was a little stunned in his heart, sat quietly for a while, and saw that the old lady already had a sense of sleepiness between her eyebrows, so she got up and said goodbye.

Walking out of Pingyang Hall with Wan Lu, Ran Yan saw Xing Niang Zhenghou at the door, and when he saw Ran Yan, he was full of worried and questioning eyes.

Ran Yan smiled and shook his head, the three of them didn't say anything, and went everywhere together.

Back at the residence, there was already a maid waiting, "Yan Niang, the slave maid came to pass the word for Ran's house, and asked the lady to go to the embroidery workshop tomorrow to choose the fabric and style of the wedding dress, Ran Langjun said that if the lady is inconvenient, he will ask someone to send it to the house." ”

There are many kinds of fabrics, if you want to really choose the one you like, you still have to go over in person, otherwise you have to let the embroidery workshop move the people to pull these cars of fabrics into the Zheng Mansion, Ran Yan is borrowing to live in someone else's house, and just now he was almost forced to accompany the room, so he naturally didn't want to add a little trouble to the Zheng Mansion, so he said, "I'll leave the house tomorrow." ”

"Yes." The maid bowed slightly, and Xing Niang immediately stuffed a bag of money into her hand without a trace, "There is Miss Lao." ”

The maid's calm and humble eyes lit up slightly, "It's what a slave should do." ”

After entering the house, Xing Niang didn't ask what happened to the old lady, but said, "Lady, San Lang sent a list of dowries this morning, please take a look." ”

"My dowry is from the third uncle?" Ran Yan took the list and was surprised. The Ran family won't be so stingy, and they can't even give up a little marriage! (。
