Chapter 262: Surprise (2)
The father and daughter reunited after a long absence, and there were almost endless words.
The correspondence has never been interrupted. However, even if there are a thousand words in the letter, where can we sit and whisper at this moment?
"My grandmother knows about my visit to the capital this time. This is what she gave you, and you take it as a dowry. Zhao Yuanming took out a few silver tickets from his sleeve.
It is a long way to come to the capital from Beihai, and valuables should not be carried. Grandmother Zhang simply prepared 5,000 taels of silver tickets and asked Zhao Yuanming to bring them.
Zhao Xiyan was not polite when his grandmother gave it, and reached out to take the silver ticket: "Did grandmother mutter, girls are all money-losers?" ”
Zhao Yuanming smiled: "You know your grandmother's temper." ”
Not to mention this, I took his hand and said a lot! There are some things that don't like to hear, so don't tell the crescent moon.
Zhao Xiyan pursed his lips and smiled, put the silver ticket into the box, and asked casually, "Is the Seventh Great Uncle Ancestor okay?" ”
"Very good." Zhao Yuanming said with a smile: "I can eat two bowls of rice in one meal, which is better than me." In my opinion, he will live a long life. ”
Zhao Xiyan smiled, and was a little stunned: "Dad, I miss my grandmother so much, and I also miss my seventh great-uncle." I don't know when I'll be able to go back to Beihai to see them. ”
Stepping into the quagmire of the capital, it is not easy to get out.
Zhao Yuanming's heart was a little sour, and he opened his mouth to comfort his daughter: "There will always be a chance in the future." ”
Zhao Xiyan cheered up and asked with a smile: "For more than a year, is Dad's health okay?" ”
"I can eat and sleep, it's good." Zhao Yuanming said with a smile: "I go to the academy every day, a bunch of naughty boys, busy all day long. ”
"In the spring of this year, Beihai County has produced seven new science and technology scholars, most of whom are from my disciples. Now the Zhao clan is famous, and students from other states and counties come to study. There were so many students that I couldn't refuse, so I simply set up an exam. Only the top 20 students will be accepted. ”
Speaking of Zhao clan studies, Zhao Yuanming was in good spirits and talked eloquently.
Zhao Xiyan held his chin with his hand, listened with relish, and asked by the way: "Is there a matchmaker coming to the door?" If there is something pleasing to the eye, remarry! I'm about to get married, and I'm so far away from my father, I can't take care of my father's food, clothing, and daily life. ”
Zhao Yuanming said: "I have no idea of remarrying. I've long been used to living alone like this. ”
Zhao Yuanming seems to be gentle and good-tempered, but he is actually very assertive. Zhao Xiyan knew his temper, and didn't say more after a few words of persuasion.
"A few months ago, your great uncle wrote to me saying that you were sick and were going to the Grange to recuperate." Zhao Yuanming looked at Zhao Xiyan and asked softly, "I felt something was wrong at that time. After that, you didn't write to me for three months. Is something wrong? ”
Zhao Xiyan nodded and told the whole story.
Zhao Yuanming's eyes flashed with anger, and he snorted heavily: "This Murong Shen! Arrogance, self-righteousness, and unscrupulousness. No wonder you never give a about him. Such people must be avoided. ”
Zhao Xiyan said softly: "Murong Shen is dedicated to making meritorious contributions and is ambitious. Brother Chunsheng and him will have to face each other sooner or later, and it is impossible to avoid it. ”
Zhao Yuanming was silent for a moment before he said, "How sure are you?" ”
Zhao Xiyan and his father looked at each other: "Originally, there were only three points, and with the prince on our side, our winning chance was at least sixty percent." ”
Zhao Yuanming sighed: "Even if you are nine out of ten sure, you have to be extra cautious." Murong Shen was able to sit on the dragon chair in his previous life, and he always had something extraordinary. Do not be negligent. ”
Zhao Xiyan replied softly: "Dad, don't worry, we will be more careful." ”
Zhao Yuanming didn't say this anymore, but instead instructed: "Your mother left early, and I will be a father and a mother alone, and I will raise you." You will marry tomorrow and become a wife, and you will be of the same mind as your husband in the future. The princess and princess are not in the capital, you don't have to serve your in-laws, don't forget to send letters back from time to time. Also, I get along well with several county gentlemen. Otherwise, there will be contradictions and estrangements, and the prince will be caught in the middle......"
Zhao Xiyan nodded obediently.
Zhao Yuanming's chatter was more than half an hour.
The sound of beating from nowhere came to my ears. Before you know it, it's time.
Zhao Yuanming stopped his mouth and said in a low voice: "You have to get up early tomorrow and go to bed early tonight." ”
Zhao Xiyan snorted, and suddenly said softly: "Dad, the queen mother has always taken good care of Brother Chunsheng. I have also been in the palace to see Niangniang, and she has protected me in every way. ”
Zhao Yuanming's eyes flashed with complicated emotions, and he said after a while: "With her protecting you, your life in the capital will be better." ”
Before leaving, Zhao Yuanming took out a thin booklet from his arms, stuffed it into Zhao Xiyan's hand, and hurriedly threw down a sentence: "I'll take a look at it later." "Gone like a thief.
Zhao Xiyan: "......"
You don't have to look through it to guess what's in the booklet.
The night before the girl's family got married, the elders of the family had to teach some things about husband and wife. My father couldn't open his mouth, so he stuffed a booklet over.
Zhao Xiyan pinched the thin booklet, didn't feel ashamed, but wanted to laugh.
The hosta quietly walked in: "The slave maid is waiting for the young lady to freshen up." ”
Zhao Xiyan quickly pressed the booklet under the pillow.
The hosta was sharp-eyed, and she wanted to ask, but suddenly she thought of something, and her pretty face turned red, and she was silent.
After freshening up, Zhao Xiyan changed into a white middle coat, lay on the bed, took out the booklet from under the pillow, and turned the first page.
After a glance, Zhao Xiyan's face was a little hot, he closed the book, closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
However, his mind was unusually clear, and he was a little inexplicably agitated and restless, and he couldn't sleep.
Zhao Xiyan bit her lip, opened her eyes, and opened the booklet again.
……
"Miss, wake up."
The familiar voice of the hosta sounded in his ears, and Zhao Xiyan, who was sleeping in a daze, opened his eyes, and his eyes were a little dazed: "Is it dawn?" ”
The hosta snorted and was happy: "Today is the big day for the young lady to get married." I have to get up early to shower and make up, and the bride is already waiting outside. ”
As soon as the word "marriage" came into his ears, Zhao Xiyan's consciousness immediately sobered up.
The hosta smiled again, and the begonia standing on the side also giggled.
Marigold primrose and little maid Amber both had smiles on their faces. The room was full of joy.
Zhao Xiyan soaked in warm water for half an hour, washed clean inside and out, and sat in front of the dressing mirror in homely clothes.
The round-faced and white-faced bride came over with a smile, first twisted the fluff on her face with a thin thread, and then carefully groomed her and worked for an hour. praised the beauty in the mirror: "Miss Zhao is really a beautiful country, and she is captivating the country and the city." ”
Zhao Xiyan looked at the girl with a terrifying face in the mirror and smiled slightly.
Today, she is getting married.
