Chapter 3 Poetry Society
Poetry will add unmarried men and women to blind dates!
When Su Junning, who was still immersed in the idea of marriage fear just now, heard this, a little reluctance immediately appeared on her charming face.
Before she refused, Cui clapped her hand and coaxed softly.
"Ning'er listens to her mother's words, you are about to get married, and you are also the age to talk about marriage, if you can meet your favorite early, you will save a lot of long nights."
This night's long dream naturally refers to the marriage given by Emperor Jianning.
Reasonable, Su Juning had no choice but to nod his head.
Oh Qing felt that something was wrong, so he asked, "The emperor intends to give marriage, and the sons of the country's mansion are all settled, why do you still hold this poetry meeting?" ”
"Ruiguo's surname is Xu, he has two sons and a daughter, the eldest son Xu Yuanhong is married, the second son is called Xu Yuanche, and there is a younger daughter, sixteen years old this year, called Xu Sini, the Duchess of Guo should be worried about her daughter." Choi explained.
After this explanation, Su Junning understood.
The mother and daughter talked for a while before Cui left the Hidden Jade Pavilion.
After Cui's left, Su Junning took off her makeup, changed into a light clothes, and went to the couch by the window with a soft pillow.
Nan Su saw that there was a slightly tired look between her eyebrows, so she made tea and brought it over.
"If the young lady really doesn't want to go, or pretends to be sick, or begs Madame, she can avoid it." Nan Su comforted softly.
However, Su Juning shook her head, "What my mother said is reasonable, I have to take precautions, I have to go and see this poetry meeting, but I haven't been back to Beijing for too long, I'm afraid I don't know a lot of things, you can inquire later, who will participate in this poetry meeting." ”
Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.
After being instructed, Nan Xu nodded and immediately went to do it.
Two days later.
Spring is still shallow, the cool breeze is slow, and the chill is carried by it.
In front of the magnificent house with high walls and red tiles, the wooden plaque is written with gilded lacquer with the four big characters of Ruiguo Mansion.
The dragon flies and the phoenix dances, and the atmosphere is majestic.
Two elegant and exquisite carriages slowly stopped in front of the mansion, and just looking at the frame, you knew that the person sitting inside must be extraordinary.
Today is the day when his wife holds a poetry party, and there are distinguished guests who come and go to the house, and the little man who guards the door does not dare to slack off, and is busy laughing and chanting to welcome him.
Su Zhiyi held the hand of the personal maid Chuyun, stepped on the stool, and slowly walked off the carriage.
Wearing an ice blue silver pattern painted flower fairy dress, with a mutton fat jade head, it is simple and elegant, which just matches her delicate and cold facial features.
But the look in those phoenix eyes was too alienated and indifferent, so that people didn't dare to approach.
The little girl swallowed nervously and hurriedly gave up her hand, "Miss Su." ”
Su Zhiyi nodded lightly, but he didn't rush to leave, and looked sideways at the carriage that followed.
I saw that from the carriage behind, a delicate maid with a goose egg face got down first, and respectfully lifted the curtain.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a woman wearing a begonia-colored gold Ruyi hundred butterfly pattern dress, with a light waist swing, and a lotus step to get out of the car.
Su Juning's willow eyebrows are like daisies, her red lips are like fire, compared to Su Zhiyi's coldness, her facial features are more delicate and bright, her charming but not demonic charm is natural, and her demeanor is generous.
The little guy looked a little stunned, but he quickly reflected and hurriedly lowered his head and handed it over.
remembered that there was news in Bianjing City two days ago, saying that the young daughter of the Su Yushi family had been picked up, so there was no need to think about it, it was naturally the beauty in front of him.
Busy turning sideways to make a posture of invitation, "The two young ladies are invited in, the banquet is set in the back garden, and there is a maid to guide you when you enter the house." ”
Su Zhiyi and Su Juning both bowed slightly, and then entered the Ruiguo Mansion one after the other.
Following the maid in the Guogong Mansion, Su Junning quietly looked at the furnishings in this mansion.
She knew that this mansion was originally an empty general's mansion, but she didn't expect it to be given to her brother-in-law by Emperor Jianning.
Every grass and tree in the courtyard is very well maintained, the scenery is beautiful, one step at a time, and the people who come and go are well-behaved and polite, which shows that the head of the Guogong Mansion, Xie Shi, is a capable woman who is very good at the affairs of the house.
After a short time, when they reached the gate of the garden where the banquet was held, the maid who led the way withdrew.
There were already a lot of people in the field, but the sisters tacitly agreed not to go in directly, but first looked around at the entrance, looking at the people from all walks of life who came to participate in the poetry meeting.
Su Junning's eyes swept around, but he really didn't mention interest.
I wanted to take precautions, but I didn't have a good goal.
I slandered in my heart, and was about to say something, when I heard Su Zhiyi beside me open his mouth first.
"You can walk around by yourself, I'll go with Qin... Mrs. Wu, speak. ”
The stumbling in Su Zhiyi's words made Su Junning subconsciously follow her gaze and look forward.
In the crowd, it was Qin Wan's figure.
She is already married, and she has to call her husband's surname to the outside world.
Su Junning felt sorry for a while, and then nodded, "Hmm." ”
Just as he was about to leave, Su Zhiyi's footsteps paused again, and turned his head, "You have a temper, don't argue with others casually." ”
After saying this, without waiting for Su Junning to answer, he left with the maid.
Nan Xu looked at Su Zhiyi's back, leaned over and whispered, "Second Miss still cares about you." ”
"What a brain." Su Junning poked the maid's head lightly, "It's just that when you go out, you will be both prosperous and lossy." ”
She didn't feel any real concern anyway.
Nan Su rubbed his forehead, and then he was silent.
Su Junning looked around, and then fell in love with an empty pavilion in the west.
"Let's go, let's go and sit over there, and the province will mingle with them, and I can't be quiet if I want to."
Thinking about her brilliant achievements in the Confucianism back then, the high-ranking ladies in Bianjing City basically called her all over, and now I am afraid that there are few people waiting to see her.
Before coming, Cui also told her to be careful, so listen to her today and restrain herself.
Nan Su nodded without an opinion, and saw that her young lady was a little lacking in interest today, so she protected her from the crowd and went to the pavilion over there.
It's really a secluded location, there is a rockery in front of half of the way, and the other three sides are planted with trees, so no one should come.
Not surprisingly, she was ready to shrink here today and mix up the poetry meeting.
But when you can't think of an accident, you often can't get what you want.
Su Junning had just sat down when he suddenly heard a clatter of branches breaking behind him, followed by a muffled sound.
It seems that something heavy has crushed the branch and fallen from the tree.
The master and servant were startled, and hurriedly looked sideways at the stout elm tree not far behind the gazebo.
I saw a man in a dark coat and a silver crown kneeling on the ground in a slightly embarrassed manner, supporting the ground with one hand and holding his knee with the other.
"Damn, be kind as a donkey's liver and lungs, and one day bring your nest together!"
The man recovered from the discomfort of falling from a height, and opened his mouth to say a dirty word.
Su Junning, who was taken aback by him, also leaned back, making a precautionary posture, and was stunned for a while.
Seeing that the man was looking up, as if he was scolding the things on the tree, she also subconsciously looked at the tree.
But from her angle, she can't see anything.
