"Hurry up and get someone in."

"Yes."

The maid retreated, and everyone knew it.

and entered the table first, the female dependents were all in the garden, and the prince beckoned the foreign men to be in the courtyard next to the garden.

The two places are just separated by a bamboo forest.

Fiction and reality, you can only see the clothes of the figures clearly.

The crown princess sat on the main seat, and on her left hand sat the old lady Jiang and the eldest lady Jiang, the second lady Jiang, and the eldest girl of the Jiang family.

It was rare for the second aunt Jiang to go to a banquet with her mother outside, so she took her daughter Ye Jingyun and sat with her mother's house.

The right hand of the crown princess is the eldest lady of Chengenbo Mansion, Liang. Xie Shiqian let Mrs. Qian sit with his sister-in-law Liang.

She sat next to Mrs. Qian, followed by the Xue family in the fourth room and the Ding family in the fifth room.

followed by several girls from the Ye family, as well as Miss Qian.

Because there were no people who were too familiar with each other at the banquet, Miss Qian was a little restrained.

Xu was because his father had a good relationship with Ye San, and his mother got closer to Ye San.

She is naturally closer to Ye Jingzhao, the fourth miss of Ye Si.

"Sister Qian, how about we go for a walk later?"

Ye Jingzhao replaced the wine with tea and toasted a glass.

The elders talked happily with each other, and the girl's family chatted with each other.

"It's fine."

Miss Qian smiled gently, and her demeanor was generous and decent.

Today she wore a half-new light purple dress with a silk begonia pattern embroidered on her face.

There is only a white jade tassel hairpin on the head, and the end of the hairpin is also carved with a begonia flower pattern.

There are two begonia velvet flowers on each sideburns, which are very eye-catching.

Miss Qian has a plump body, and she is not a clear figure.

Although the appearance is not outstanding, it has a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

He is also a very good-natured person.

The voice is soft and weak, and it is not noisy.

"Sister Qian, this is my second sister Ye Jingmiao, and this is my fourth aunt's niece Xue Miaoyue."

Ye Jingzhao introduced a few people, and everyone toasted each other with tea instead of wine.

Putting down the teacup, the atmosphere of the girl's house began to be ripe.

"Sister Jingzhao, I heard that you have lived in Song County for a long time in the past, where is there anything delicious and fun?"

Miss Qian seemed to open the conversation box and asked about Ye Jingzhao's past.

In fact, she has been in Kyoto since she was a child, and the world outside is heard from others or seen in books.

In the end, she was a little envious.

Ye Jingzhao did not shy away from Miss Qian, and casually talked about his days in Song County.

"Song County is far, far away from Kyoto, where it is not rich, and there are many people in the local area who can still feed a family, and the shops and markets are not very prosperous."

"Naturally, the food used is not comparable to Kyoto."

"However, the people are simple, the people are extremely kind to each other, and there are no bullies who oppress people."

"The people there also want to come to Kyoto one day to have a look and see what this enviable and rich Kyoto is like."

Somehow, as he spoke, the tip of Ye Jingzhao's nose was sour, and his heart was sullen.

When my father was in office, he was diligent and dedicated, and he wanted to seek more benefits for the people.

so that the barren people may have a little better life.

But helplessly, the strength is weak.

It's just an occasional help to some people who really can't survive.

A few girls listened to it in their hearts, and they were also affected by their emotions for a while.

"By the way, Sister Qian, where do you go on weekdays? If we have a chance in the future, let's go shopping together, okay? ”

Ye Jingzhao saw that the atmosphere was a little dull, so he changed the topic and asked.

Miss Qian pursed her lips and thought about it carefully, in fact, she didn't have any confidants and friends in Kyoto.

Most of the weekdays are at home.

Occasionally, I would follow my mother to the temple to offer incense.

This has been her life since she was a child.

When asked for a while, she couldn't answer, and said, "I don't go out much on weekdays, and when I go out on weekdays, I mostly follow my mother to incense." ”

"Why don't we wait for the spring to begin, how about we go to Xingshan outside the city to enjoy the flowers?" Xue Miaoyue suddenly proposed.

Several girls looked at her in unison, their eyes hiding their surprise.

They either don't go out of the house much, or like Ye Jingzhao, they haven't been back to Kyoto for many days.

Only Xue Miaoyue, although she was born as a businessman, also followed her mother to visit many places in Kyoto and outside the city.

The businessman family is not like a high-ranking family, and there are so many restrictions and requirements for the boudoir lady.

Thinking of that apricot mountain, Xue Miaoyue is still unforgettable.

"Sixty miles outside the city of Kyoto, there is a place called Sekigetsu Mountain, because of the heavy mountains and mountains, sparsely populated, the locals in order to live, specially planted apricot trees on a mountain."

"When the apricots are ripe, they will be sold or made into dried apricots for sale."

"Every year in March, the apricot blossoms are full of mountains, look at it from afar, the emerald mountains and forests are full of white and pink apricot blossoms, look extremely spectacular, so it is renamed as Apricot Mountain."

Everyone listened and saw that she described her vividly.

It's like being in the middle of the apricot blossom waves.

Full of expectations and yearnings.

It was agreed at the moment that when the flowers bloomed, several people went to enjoy the flowers together.

"How did Sister Xue find this place?"

Ye Jingzhao suddenly became curious, it was the first time she had heard of this apricot mountain.

"My family is a merchant, and my mother accidentally tasted the dried apricots sold in Xinghua Village, and she liked it very much, so she went to find it herself."

Then she realized, "Then do you still sell these dried apricots at home?" ”

I was hungry for a while.

Xue Miaoyue shook her head helplessly.

"I didn't sell it, but because the quantity was very small, and my mother liked it, she kept it, or ate it herself, or gave it away, and tomorrow I asked someone to send a letter back and give everyone a copy to taste."

Everyone thanked themselves.

The annual yield of apricots in this apricot blossom mountain is still okay.

It's just that because of the topography, dried apricots need the right weather.

However, there are very few such suitable weather in Xinghua Village in a year.

If it is dried in the house, the dried apricots will lose their natural taste.

Therefore, people like to sell fresh apricots, and there is no need to go through such a hassle.

"Zhaozhao."

As he was speaking, the eldest aunt Liang suddenly called out.

Ye Jingzhao apologized to everyone and walked up to the eldest aunt to greet him.

"Fourth sister, I have something for you, you come with me." Ye Jingzhen got up with a smile and led her to where the girls were.

Everyone got up and saluted, and Ye Jingzhen said to Miss Qian again, "Miss Qian, I have prepared some gifts for you, you can also come with me." ”

"Yes."

The purpose of coming to the prince's mansion today, my mother mentioned it to her.

said that he fell in love with the eldest son of the big house of Chengenbo.

So that she doesn't have to be restrained, if she looks at Shang Ke, then she should come down to this family business.

He also said that Mrs. Yefu was a kind person and the county lord of Liang Wangfu.

has a mother-in-law who likes it, and no one outside dares to embarrass her.

This family business is excellent, but in the end, I hope my daughter can like it in her heart.
