Chapter 296: Annan Chinese
Leaving Laiyizhai, Chen Xiuyan took Luo Mingxin and the longevity county lord to go shopping, although they were a little concerned about the affairs of the eldest grandmother of the Qi family, but it was not to the extent that it would affect their emotions, after all, they were not familiar with each other, not to mention that the Qi family was the maiden family of Mrs. Shangshu of the second prince's family, and there was a problem if the relationship was good.
"We're never going to come to Laizhai again." The county lord of longevity snorted angrily, "And that concubine, what ...... thing?"
"Ahem-" Chen Xiuyan said embarrassedly, a good county lord has been living in the Jin Palace, and now she has a bit of a rural atmosphere when she speaks, she has to introspect about this, what concubines are not concubines in front of children, and it is not appropriate to have things.
"The little master is right, you don't need to pay attention to those things." Father-in-law Xia smiled and excused, He didn't think there was anything wrong with the longevity county lord saying this, on the contrary, he was very happy, and he liked to see such a lively little master.
Chen Xiuyan felt that her problem was actually not very big, not all of her problems.
"Those people don't need to be talked about, it's not worth talking about, don't waste your tongue because of inconsequential people in the future." Chen Xiuyan said.
"Okay." The county lord of longevity nodded directly without a trace of hesitation.
"The princess is very right, much more detailed than the old slave." Father-in-law Xia rarely slapped his horse, "The little master has been improving day by day since he studied with the princess in the Jin Palace. ”
"Well, I can speak a lot of Tatar now." The county lord of Changshou said complacently, "I think Sister Xiuyan can speak Tatar better than that Mr. Ruan, every time Mr. Ruan teaches well, Sister Xiuyan will teach me and Mingxin again, so that I can remember it completely." ”
Next year will be younger than Luo Mingxin, but because she is older than her, how interesting it is to look at how to open her mouth.
"Eh, that's Mr. Ruan." The county lord of longevity pointed to a brown back figure in the distance and said.
Chen Xiuyan and the others looked up, it was true, Ruan Yuanniang's figure was nothing special, but her hairstyle was always the same, like Dao Gu, coiled into a round bun at the back of her head, and then inserted a wooden hairpin, the position of the bun and the wooden hairpin was the same almost every day, and they had seen it many times, and they could recognize Ruan Yuanniang by their backs.
"Really." Luo Mingxin echoed.
Chen Xiuyan didn't look at Ruan Yuanniang, but looked carefully at a woman walking with Ruan Yuanniang, that woman gave Chen Xiuyan a very disobedient feeling, standing together and looking at Ruan Yuanniang, she was about the same height as Ruan Yuanniang, but the proportions of the upper body and the lower body were not coordinated, the legs seemed to be extraordinarily long, and the upper body was very short.
Chen Xiuyan looked down at the woman's feet covered by the skirt, the skirt was faintly floating, although ordinary people would not notice, but Chen Xiuyan saw the difference in shoes at a glance, it was a pair of shoes with very thick soles, which also explained the incongruity, The woman was wearing thick-soled flatform shoes similar to modern times.
Generally, no matter how short a person is, women in ancient times rarely wore such shoes, and the most important thing is that there is no place to sell such shoes.
Chen Xiuyan walked towards the two of them, and saw that the two of them were about to turn into the alley, so she hurriedly opened her mouth to call someone, "Mr. Ruan." ”
Chen Xiuyan's eyes were sharp, and she saw the backs of the two people who froze in an instant, but Ruan Yuanniang quickly turned around, with some surprise on her face, Chen Xiuyan was sure that Ruan Yuanniang heard her voice when she called someone.
"The princess?" Ruan Yuanniang bowed and saluted Chen Xiuyan.
"I didn't expect to meet Mr. Ruan on the street, we were just going to dinner, Mr. Ruan came with us, talking about learning *** from Mr. Ruan, and I haven't invited Mr. Ruan to eat outside." Chen Xiuyan warmly invited, and then looked at the woman who was standing half a step behind Ruan Yuanniang, almost covering half of her body, with curiosity on her face.
"This is Mr. Nguyen's friend, right? Also from the Bright Moon Pavilion? ”
"It's not." Ruan Yuanniang shook her head with a smile, "This is my fellow countryman, and he is also from Biguan County." ”
"I don't know what to call it?" Chen Xiuyan looked at the woman with a green jacket on her upper body and a gray skirt on her lower body, and she could see some facial features clearly when she looked at it from the front, which was not very outstanding, but it was not ugly, but she kept her head slightly down, so that Chen Xiuyan couldn't see her eyes clearly.
"Ruan Zhi." The woman raised her head and glanced at Chen Xiuyan quickly, then bowed down and replied, "Say hello to the princess." ”
There is no mistake in dealing with the etiquette, but Chen Xiuyan felt that this Ruan Zhi's demeanor was a little stiff, and the word that kept pace with the times was mechanical.
"I think this one can speak Tatar too." Chen Xiuyan smiled and opened her mouth to communicate with Ruan Zhi in Tatar, "I heard that you are a little embarrassed to speak official language, if you are not used to it, you can communicate in Tatar." ”
"Concubine Shizi, my fellow is in a hurry to return to her hometown, her parents are seriously ill, and they came to say goodbye to me today, so we can't eat lunch together today, I'm sorry." Ruan Yuanniang took over the conversation and said apologetically.
"That's it, forget it, wait for the next time we have a chance to eat together and communicate together." Chen Xiuyan said with a smile.
Chen Xiuyan saw the other party turn around, and she turned around almost without hesitation, "Mr. Ruan and her friend have something to do, let's go eat by ourselves, and we will have dinner with Mr. Ruan next time." ”
Chen Xiuyan smiled and talked to Luo Mingxin and the county lord of Changshou, and the group walked slowly towards the restaurant on the street.
"Hidden Secret." Chen Xiuyan walked for a while, and took advantage of the emptiness at the entrance of the street and alley to call the secret guard out.
"Ma'am." Yin Xuan, dressed in a gray robe, walked out of the alley, and naturally passed by Chen Xiuyan's side.
"Go follow Ruan Yuanniang and Ruan Zhi, and then let Yinsu find out the details of the two." Chen Xiuyan quickly advised.
"Yes." Yin Xuan responded and walked directly to the alley opposite, and then disappeared directly to follow while no one found out.
"The princess suspects that there is something wrong with those two?" Father-in-law Xia asked in a low voice.
"Ruan Yuanniang lied, that Ruan Zhi couldn't understand Tatar at all, it couldn't be from Biguan County, I now suspect that Ruan Yuanniang is not from Biguan County, her Tatar language is not very authentic." Chen Xiuyan said, "If it is the Mingyue Pavilion that you entered under the pretense of household registration, I don't know what the purpose is, you have to investigate it clearly." ”
"The old slave also handed a letter to the prince." Grandpa Xia said.
"Okay." Chen Xiuyan responded, King Chengping had fought with the Tatars for many years, and had camped in Biguan County for many years.
When Chen Xiuyan and his entourage arrived at the nearby Manxiangju, entered the box on the second floor, and ordered the signature specialty, Yin Xuan appeared, "Now Yin Su is staring, and his subordinates are coming back to report the news." ”
"Ruan Yuanniang and Ruan Zhi don't speak Tatar or Chu Guo dialect when they talk to each other, and their subordinates can't understand it." Yin Xuan replied truthfully.
"Can you repeat that?" Chen Xiuyan asked.
Yin Xuan repeated a word or two, although he said it awkwardly, Chen Xiuyan heard it at once, "Annan Chinese." ”
