Chapter Twenty-Six: Do You Want a New Embroidered Handkerchief?
After a while, Ruoruo raised his head and said unhappily: "But what about my father?"
Fan Xian frowned and said: "With me in Kyoto being filial, you can play with peace of mind for two years." β
"But...... Can you really get out of the marriage in this way?" Fan Ruoruo still didn't believe it.
"The face of the bitter lotus...... It's much better than the shemale emperor of Northern Qi. Fan Xian smiled and said: "Even if it is our Qingguo Majesty, he will give him two faces." Besides, if you worship under the Kuhe Gate, you will only postpone the marriage for two years in name, and it is easy to explain to the Jingwang Mansion. β
Fan Ruoruo shook her head: "It's not that simple. β
Fan Xian bit his thin lip with a headache, about the world, the matter on this route, of course it is inconvenient for him to tell his sister, otherwise with his sister's indifference on the surface and warm feelings in her heart, once he hears that he has to toss so many things for her to "break the marriage", I am afraid that she will really grit her teeth and marry!
"The key is that you are only sixteen!" Fan Xian said awe-inspiringly: "Sixteen, the little girl has not matured, so she will marry? β
Fan Ruoruo's facial skin changed from snow white to red, and she was ashamed, so she punched him: "How can you talk when your brother?" She smuttered for a long time, and retorted boldly: "Besides, when my sister-in-law married you, sixteen was not yet a full year old, right?"
Fan Xian rolled his eyes and almost fainted.
............ "Brother, actually...... I would be really happy if I could really leave Kyoto and go to see the world. Fan Ruoruo's pupils were full of longing for zΓ¬yΓ³u, "It's just...... The thought of leaving your side makes me feel a little flustered and a little scared. β
Fan Xian smiled and said: "Silly child, everyone will always be scared before they learn to be truly self-reliant, just like when we first learned to walk when we were children. β
Fan Ruoruo covered her lips and smiled: "But I heard from the people over there in Lanzhou that my brother learned to walk faster than anyone else when he was a child, and as soon as he learned to walk, he started to run around, and he was not afraid at all." β
Fan Xian thought to himself, I'm a freak, and ordinary people can't learn it.
"Okay, I'm just asking for your opinion, and if you want to, I'll take care of this matter. Fan Xian touched his sister's head and said with concern: "I will naturally deal with it, you are the sister of the unique Fan Xian, and of course you have to become the only woman in this world." β
Fan Ruoruo nodded movingly, but did not promise anything, and suddenly thought of the Begonia girl from the matter of the Great Sect Master of Bitter Lotus accepting apprentices, and thought of her brother and that girl, and seemed to be a little ...... What, she couldn't help snickering, got up and left, and said, "Sister-in-law has something for you, I'll call her in." β
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, and then watched his sister's figure disappear at the door.
Fan Ruoruo walked in the empty and quiet back garden, and couldn't help but look up at the sky, the thick clouds in the sky were gently pushed to the east by the wind, revealing a light gray sky and the gray sun that seemed to have burrs, which made people look a little unpleasant.
She stretched out her hand and stroked over the top of the neat holly tree in the back garden, thinking that next year she might go to a foreign country, to get rid of the sticky air in Kyoto that was almost impossible to breathe, to get rid of the boring poetry of the ladies and ladies, to get rid of the family business that she really could not imagine, her heart was happy, and then there was a sudden burst of emptiness.
The girl's fingers were clenched subconsciously, but they were scraped by the thorns of the leaves, and they hurt slightly, thinking that the master had said that he must cherish his hands, and he retracted his hands like lightning, and he was extremely fast. She thought to herself, whether to go to the north or not, it would be better to wait for the master to come back and ask.
βββββββββββββββββββββββWhat are you and Ruoruo talking about?" Wan'er walked away with her sister-in-law, walked into the room lightly, and asked mysteriously.
Fan Xian responded mysteriously: "...... Can't say. β
Wan'er was angry, sat down in front of the dresser, reached out and picked up the comb and began to comb her hair. Fan Xian smiled and stepped forward, took the comb and helped her comb it, the wooden teeth of the comb slid over his wife's long hair, unhindered, very smooth.
Fan Xian said: "You and your sister have good hair. β
Wan'er grinned and said: "It's all about the set of household goods that Xianggong made in Shanzhou, it is easy to wash your hair and maintain it naturally." β
Fan Xian didn't believe it, so he got closer to smell it, and found that it was indeed a faint fragrance, and there was no peculiar smell. Wan'er was annoyed, and faked a beating: "It can be seen that you don't care when you are close to me." β
Fan Xian stood behind her, cast two eyes in front of his wife, passed through the slightly open neckline, saw a touch of white tenderness, his heart fluttered, and he said with a smile: "You don't have to be close to your heart, you can use your eyes." β
Lin Wan'er heard the meaning of Xianggong's words, and tied her collar in shame, she didn't dress casually at home, but she didn't expect that the Sèwolf Xiangxiang Guild would occupy the best terrain so smartly.
Fan Xian held his wife in his arms, sniffed her body deeply, buried his face in the softness of her chest, took a few deep breaths, and said sadly: "Recently, I have always felt that I have longed for something very much, but I have not been able to find the source. β
Lin Wan'er thought that he was talking about such a shameful thing, and took a sip, trying to break out of his arms, but she couldn't break his iron arms. Fan Xian grinned and said, "Don't make Xiao XΓ¬ngzi, I can't tell you what I said to my sister for the time being, you will naturally know it in the future." β
Lin Wan'er opened her curious eyes: "So cautious?"
Fan Xian said with a bitter face: "It's almost the biggest nonsense in the world." He remembered what his sister said earlier, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "My sister said you have something for me, what?"
Lin Wan'er gritted her teeth angrily and said, "That little traitor, I wanted to see how you have behaved recently, and then I won't give it to you." β
Fan Xian said with a smile: "Anyway, it's for me, ask the county lord to reward the little one." β
Lin Wan'er pouted her meaty mouth: "Don't give it." β
Fan Xian's face gradually smirked, her hands groped around her soft and greasy waist, twisting and rubbing, after a panicked scream, Wan'er finally lost the battle, panting and took out something from her arms, threw it on Fan Xian's face, and said, "Here you go, let me go quickly!"
A gust of fragrant wind blew on his face, and a towel covered his face, Fan Xian subconsciously let go of his hands, and tore it off to take a look, but he was stunned.
An embroidered handkerchief, embroidered with a pair of mandarin ducks, is swimming in the blue waves.
The cloth is a good cloth, this is a tribute in the palace, and Jiangnan weaving presents the best in the world.
The line is a good line, whether it is gold or yellow or red or green, you can see the texture of this line, and it is also the choice of Suzhou Mansion jΔ«ng.
The meaning is also a good intention, the mandarin ducks are in pairs, the blue waves are rippling, a weeping peach on the water, and there are three or two pink flowers blooming.
It's just that.
............ This needlework is really ...... No, what's wrong!
I saw that the stitches jumped back and forth, and the dense small holes next to the thread clearly proved that the embroiderer had repented of countless needles, even so, the embroidered lines were still crooked, without the meaning of roundness, and the pair of mandarin ducks that should be resting were embroidered into ridiculous strange water birds, and those few pink peaches were embroidered into postmodern deconstructivist sè groups!
Fan Xian's eyes widened, looking at this embroidered handkerchief - that wave of blue water was actually just a few plain water lines, and the embroidery was good, but why did it use yellow lines?
Could it be that this embroidery is a deformed group of water birds in the Yellow River?
endured and endured, Fan Xian looked at it again and again, and finally couldn't help but burst out a series of laughs!
............ The laughter spread throughout the house, and Wan'er, who was very self-aware, had already hid in her sister-in-law's room in shame, but listening to such humiliating laughter, she was born with evil and courage, strode back to the room, stretched out her orchid fingers, pointed at Fan Xian's nose and scolded: "Don't laugh!"
Fan Xian looked at his wife's bulging cheeks, laughed uncontrollably, and quickly covered his mouth with one hand and his stomach with the other, and leaned forward and backward on the chair like a tumbler.
Lin Wan'er was ashamed, annoyed and wanted to laugh, so she rushed forward and grabbed the embroidered handkerchief in Fan Xian's hand. Fan Xian was willing to give it to her, grabbed it and took it back into his arms, finally stopped laughing, and said: "Good Wan'er, this is the first thing you embroidered for your husband, since you gave it away, you can't take it back." β
Lin Wan'er was born noble, she grew up in the palace since she was a child, and she has always been served by her grandmother and palace maids, where has she been a female celebrity. So when I thought of my wife embroidering a square scarf for herself, although the needlework was really poor, the deep affection contained in it really moved Fan Xian very much.
He grabbed his wife's hands distressedly, looked at the red dots on the tips of the other party's fingers, blew on her white onion fingertips distressedly, and said: "Don't embroider next time, I'll embroider it for you, when I was fine in Shanzhou, I also studied for a few days." β
Lin Wan'er looked at him with a concerned expression, and her heart was extremely warm, but when she heard this, she was extremely depressed, and muttered: "I married a father-in-law, but I was born more beautiful than myself, you are still a female celebrity, so careful......" She pruned her mouth and was about to cry, "Fan Xian, do you want me to live?"
"Little fool. Fan Xian pinched her soft face lovingly, and said: "If you don't live like this, then I think these daughters in Kyoto will commit suicide en masse, who can't compare with me? Compared with a genius like me, you must know that Xianggong and I can break the general, write poetry, make a big fuss in the officialdom when I am heroic, and sit and embroider in a quiet place...... Who am I? I'm an unborn genius. β
Listening to him boasting and putting on a disgusting narcissistic appearance, Lin Wan'er burst into tears and laughed, hit his eyebrows with one finger, and said, "Look at you smugness." β
Fan Xian raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't say anything cheap: "I can marry you, of course, I have to be proud." β
Lin Wan'er was suddenly stunned, and reached out to touch him in his arms.
Fan Xian stretched out his hand to protect his chastity, and said anxiously: "I said I was going to give it to me, what else did I rob?"
Lin Wan'er's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of pride: "It's not to rob me, it's to rob you." β
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, and then watched Lin Wan'er take out a flower turban from her arms, which was stolen from Begonia's head when he left Shangjing. Lin Wan'er looked at him with a smile: "Since you want my one, then keep it for me." β
Fan Xian buzzed in his head, and then he knew that the reason why his wife endured the pain in her fingers and kept secretly wanting to embroider this hand towel turned out to be ...... Although he and Begonia do not have any personal relationship between men and women, but at this time, with the evidence in hand, he was dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to defend himself, so he had to say: "Wan'er, you misunderstood, I told you in the past, that Begonia was born very unspecial, how could I look down on her when you were a father-in-law?"
Lin Wan'er snorted and said: "Your taste has always been different, when you praised me for being beautiful every day, I felt strange, but I just thought you had a sweet mouth and could coax people...... Beautiful! It can be seen that your vision is different from that of the world, who will believe you. β
Fan Xian feigned anger and said, "Who dares to say that my daughter-in-law is not beautiful?"
Lin Wan'er shrugged her shoulders in his flat style: "No one has ever thought that I was born beautiful." β
Fan Xian scratched his head and asked Xiaoyi, "Could it be ...... Is there really something wrong with my vision?"
Lin Wan'er covered her mouth and smiled, and suddenly said, "Don't interrupt." She waved the flower turban of the begonia in her hand and said proudly: "This piece belongs to me, you have no opinion." β
Fan Xian said with a bitter face: "No opinion, no opinion." β
Lin Wan'er grinned, walked outside the house, and when she came to the door, she suddenly turned around and said: "If you don't want to take that begonia girl into the house, or don't break this thought, a manly man, he carries a handkerchief every day as a thought, and he has no courage at all, even I, who is a wife, blush for you." β
Fan Xian waved her and gave her a flying kiss, and said with a sneer: "This shows that I am much purer than you." β
Lin Wan'er took a bite of him.
Fan Xian suddenly thought of something important, and asked nervously: "Wan'er, I remember that you just had your birthday, so when we get married, you should be sixteen, right?"
Lin Wan'er opened her eyes wide in curiosity and nodded.
Fan Xian patted his chest and said, "That's good, that's good." β
............ The next day, outside the Fan Mansion, in the carriage.
"My lord, where are we going?" Shi Yili asked his teacher with a headache, because the teacher had a smile on the corner of his lips today, looking very dangerous, I don't know what he was thinking in his heart, now that Jingzhong is not very quiet, doesn't the teacher still want to stop?
Fan Xian looked at the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, looked at the deformed water bird on it and smiled, but his heart ached a little, the turban on the head of the begonia, that is the strong man on the nine grades!
He raised his head and looked at Shi Xianli and Deng Ziyue's inquiring eyes, only then did he come back to his senses, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully: "Let......'s go!" The official's family affairs are not going well, so he wants to go to relax, and by the way, he will learn the skills of embroidery with the girls in the building. β
