92 Lantern Festival
Empress Zhang was originally sitting lazily on the chair, but after Rong Zhao talked about the workshop, she became serious and sat in her position, until now after Rong Zhao finished speaking, she slowly stood up.
Empress Zhang personally walked down and helped Rong Zhao, who was still bent over, to pick him up.
She looked at Rong Zhao, and then at Zhang Changyan who was standing next to her, and sighed sincerely: "Changyan, you are not as good as Ah Zhao."
Zhang Changyan was not ashamed, not even hesitated, and replied confidently: "I'm not as good as him, who can compare with him?" - That tone, inexplicably a little proud.
Empress Zhang shook her head helplessly, her eyes doting. She has no children, and her favorite ones are actually her three nephews, especially Zhang San.
Zhang Changyan doesn't have much talent, but he is open-minded, can appreciate people, and has sincere feelings. The situation of their Zhang family, he has been happy all his life, which is very good.
Empress Zhang said again: "In the future, you will follow Ah Zhao more."
Zhang Changyan replied cheerfully: "Okay." With the words of the queen's aunt, his father didn't care about him and ran away with Rong Zhao!
Zhang San was quite happy and proud.
Empress Zhang was still holding Rong Zhao's wrist, she retracted her gaze, swept over everyone, and looked serious: "What Rong Shizi said about Yunrong Fang is not just business, nor is it just about making money. As the queen, the palace is willing to take the lead in helping Rong Shizi build the Yunrong Workshop, and the palace invests 10,000 taels of silver. "
10,000 taels is a lot! And this is still an attitude, an attitude that Empress Zhang supports.
After Empress Zhang, it should have been the concubines, but the old lady of the Shi family suddenly spoke: "The old body is also willing to follow the queen's mother, help Rong Shizi, and invest 10,000 taels of silver!"
The old lady of the Shi family stunned everyone present. But it soon dawned on them.
The old lady of the Shi family is also a legendary figure, before her husband followed the emperor to fight the world, she was just a village woman, and the old lady of the Shi family farmed in the countryside.
Even now, she looks older and simpler than those ladies of the family.
But it is precisely because she comes from poverty that she knows the life of a woman at the bottom.
The queen paid 10,000 yuan, and Concubine Shu and Concubine Zheng needed to reduce their investment in order to show their respect for the queen, so that it would come down layer by layer, and the back was not how much you wanted to invest, but how much you could invest.
The queen's 10,000 taels is not a lot, but she can't stand the rules that will come down. The old lady of the Shi family didn't want to do this. She interjected now, and it was 10,000 taels, which disrupted the situation, and the people behind could vote as much as they wanted.
Rong Zhao's expression was solemn: "Queen Xie, Old Lady Xie Shi."
The queen always had a smile on her face, nodded, and was not angry. Old Madam Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and the others also knew it.
With them in front, the female dependents in the back began to invest, Rong Zhao asked people to take a pen and paper, first write down the amount of investment, and then start to write the contract.
Deng Changnan invested 5,000 taels, not because she didn't want to invest more, but because the Guan family had no money. The money was taken out of her dowry.
Deng Changnan asked Rong Zhao with a smile: "Your Yunrong Fang is short of people to take care of, I may be able to help you." β
Rong Zhao raised his head, his eyes lit up: "Naturally, it's great."
These women of big families are very capable, Rong Zhao is the first time to contact Deng Changnan today, but she heard Guan Mengsheng say that his mother is very powerful.
In today's conversation, Rong Zhao also knows that she is not a simple person.
Such a person is willing to help Yunrongfang, which is naturally very good. Besides, she is still the wife of Shaoqing of Dali Temple and the girl of the Deng family, with this layer of identity, Yunrongfang will go more easily.
Liu Wanjun also stepped forward with a smile: "Rong Shizi, our sisters can't help others, so let's help you write the contract."
Rong Zhao smiled and took two steps back and nodded: "Thank you, young ladies."
The girls' cheeks were slightly red, but they were very serious about taking pen and paper to help write down one contract after another.
They all came to help, Pei Qin, Pei Chengjue and Pei Guanshan, as well as Zhang San and Zhao Gongzi, can they run? Naturally, it's all on board.
Empress Zhang watched from the side, nodded slightly, and her eyes were very satisfied. The other ladies also smiled with satisfaction.
Today's so-called "blind date meeting" is not as meaningful as this moment after all.
Before the banquet began, Rong Zhao and the others also dispersed, the men went to the front hall together, and the women left with the queen. Pei Qin walked towards Rong Zhao.
Pei Chengjue, Pei Guanshan and the others quickened their pace with great eyes, leaving Rong Zhao behind. Zhang Changyan glanced back twice and muttered: "We're just leaving? What if the Fifth Prince's Son targets Rong Zhao?"
Pei Chengjue and the two pulled him left and right to continue walking, Pei Guanshan was expressionless: "This is in the palace, don't think about the Five Emperors so stupidly, okay?"
Pei Chengjue: "Let's go quickly, don't add to the chaos."
Zhang Changyan pouted.
He looked back, Pei Qin and Rong Zhao were side by side, and a polite distance was maintained between the two, but he didn't know what he said, the fifth prince was close to Rong Zhao, and the two were next to each other.
One high one
Short, one is flamboyant and handsome, the other is delicate and beautiful, and it looks very harmonious.
Zhang Changyan stopped instantly, "Rong Zhao doesn't want to get involved in the struggle for the heir, if the two of them are seen walking together, I'm afraid they will be misunderstood, I'll wait ......."
Behind.
Pei Qin was apologizing, a little embarrassed: "Ah Zhao, my mother didn't mean it, she just wanted to win you over."
Rong Zhao shook his head, there was not the slightest anger on his face, and replied politely: "Fifth Highness didn't tell others about my situation, Zhao is already very grateful."
Pei Qin immediately shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone." That is a big crime of deception, and anyone who knows it can easily deal with Rong Zhao and Anqing Wangfu.
Rong Zhao smiled and nodded.
Pei Qin frowned: "Ah Zhao, what are you going to do? Now that your reputation is getting louder and more influential, there will be many people who want to win you over with your in-law relationship...... What should you do?"
Rong Zhao's plan was naturally impossible to tell him, so he sighed helplessly: "I can only talk about it later, and it is a day to be able to push it one day."
Pei Qin thought about it and sincerely suggested: "Otherwise, you should get married."
Rong Zhao was not surprised by this suggestion at all.
This is the method that Rong Ping and they have thought of, if Rong Zhao is married, there will be no marriage, and if you choose a suitable person to marry, drag it for a few years, and drag it until the new emperor ascends the throne, maybe you can turn around.
However, Rong Zhao shook his head: "It's not appropriate, it's a delay to the woman after all." - It is impossible for her to wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne before revealing her identity as a woman.
From the second prince to the fifth prince, and even King Pei Huaibei, if they ascend the throne and Rong Zhao exposes her identity as a woman, will she continue to be her female son or be included in the harem?
It takes almost no thought to draw the latter conclusions.
These politicians may not have clean hearts, and the best way to retract the money and reputation in Rong Zhao's hands is to marry her.
And there's no way she's going to let that happen. So she will not wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne, counting on the new emperor to forgive the great crime of bullying the king.
There is no need to delay the marriage, there is no need to wait for the new emperor to ascend the throne, she wants to speed up her plan and solve the problem during the Yongming Emperor's time. Rong Zhao lowered his eyes slightly, covering the emotions in the depths of his eyes.
Pei Qin worried: "If you don't decide on your family, you won't be safe after all......"
r />
Being disturbed to get along, Pei Qin's face was not very good-looking, and he looked at Zhang Changyan coldly: "I'm talking to Ah Zhao, what is Zhang Sangongzi doing?"
Zhang Changyan smiled: "I'll wait for Ah Zhao to enter the hall together."
He looked quite innocent at this time, and it seemed that he was really just waiting for Rong Zhao. However, he is here to interrupt the conversation between Pei Qin and Rong Zhao, as the third son of the Zhang family, he also has the confidence to talk to Pei Qin.
Pei Qin saw that he and Rong Zhao were standing together, and they looked very compatible, but he thought of the news that Zhang Sangongzi always followed Rong Zhao in and out....
Pei Qin sneered: "The relationship between Zhang Sangongzi and Ah Zhao is really good, Ah Zhao and I are talking about marriage, I don't know about Zhang Sangongzi's marriage, can Prime Minister Zhang Cheng make a decision?"
Zhang Changyan frowned subconsciously, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Changyan is still young, so don't worry."
Pei Qin put his hands behind his back and said lightly: "Isn't it in a hurry or is Zhang Sangongzi in love with someone he shouldn't like?" After speaking, he threw down his sleeves, glanced at Zhang Changyan meaningfully, and left.
Zhang Changyan was stunned.
Rong Zhao was thinking about his own business, and he didn't pay much attention to their lawsuit. At this time, seeing Pei Qin leaving, and Zhang Changyan stood in place, she pulled Zhang San's sleeve, "What are you doing? Why don't you go?"
Zhang Changyan jumped up in fright, shook off Rong Zhao's hand, took a few steps back, and looked at her in horror.
Yung Zhao: "?"
She frowned, her face full of disgust: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Changyan stammered: "I, I have something, first, go first."
After speaking, his whole person seemed to be being chased, and he ran away with his buttocks, leaving Rong Zhao standing in place in confusion, very dazed.
Didn't you wait for her to enter the temple with her?
What does Zhang San run?
Pei Qin, who had walked away, looked back and saw that Zhang Changyan had left Rong Zhao and ran away, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Zhang Changyan didn't know the true situation of Rong Zhao. Who can accept that they are a broken sleeve? I'm afraid that in the future, they will avoid Rong Zhao like a snake and scorpion.
Pei Qin seemed to think of something, sighed, and muttered: "Ah Zhao is now dressed as a man, which not only attracts the hearts of the girls in the capital, but also many young men subconsciously approach her...... If the female body is restored in the future......"
Pei Qin's worries Rong Zhao didn't know.
She didn't pay attention to Zhang Changyan's strange reaction, took a copy of the "Share IOU" in her hand, and returned to the front hall leisurely. Rong Ping had been anxious, and when he saw her coming back, he hurriedly approached
, lowering his voice: "How?" Rong Zhao was in a good mood and replied: "It's good."
Rong Ping frowned: "What's good? What the hell is going on?" He was worried that someone would say goodbye to Rong Zhao, and he was also worried that someone with a heart would see the problem. Rong Zhao handed him the contract in his hand, and the corners of his mouth rose: "I persuaded them to invest in Yunrong Fang."
Rong Ping was stunned.
What is this?
He subconsciously opened the contract and looked at it, and then his eyes widened in shock: "The queen, concubine, concubine Zheng, the second princess, and the ladies of the family actually invested in Yunrongfang, and invested a total of 200,000 taels of silver?!"
Rong Zhao nodded.
Rong Ping gasped and looked at Rong Zhao very complicatedly.
- Asked her to go on a blind date, he was worried to death here, but Rong Zhao took a trip and brought back a contract worth 200,000 taels of silver! It makes people feel complicated.
Rong Zhao poured himself wine comfortably, in a good mood. Rong Ping carefully returned the contract to her, and the big stone in her heart fell to the ground completely.
He was okay to worry about what Rong Zhao was doing? What can't this girl do, and can't cope with a blind date?
Think about 200,000 taels again....
Yesterday, Rong Zhao donated 100,000 taels for Yunrong Fang, and today there is an investment of 200,000 taels.
I just don't know if the adults of each family will want to strangle Rong Zhao after they know about it? Thinking of this, Rong Ping subconsciously shrunk his neck.
On this night, King Anqing was very low-key, and whoever came to toast, he was polite, and even had a very friendly smile on his face, which was very different from Rongping!
This is confusing to all the adults. Of course, when you go home that night, you will know the truth.
Shifu.
"What?! Mother invested 10,000 taels of silver in Yunrongfang and partnered with Rong Zhao to do business?!" Lord Shi's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
Mrs. Shi explained in a low voice: "It was Empress Zhang who took the lead, and all the ladies invested."
Lord Shi had a headache, and at the same time was very puzzled: "Isn't the Zhang family at odds with the Rong family? How could the queen take the lead in cooperating with Rong Zhao in business? Did the money go?"
"The contract is written, but the money hasn't been sent yet." Mrs. Shi replied. As for why Empress Zhang took the lead, she didn't bother to explain, because she knew that her husband wouldn't understand.
Lord Shi raised his feet and walked towards Mrs. Shi's courtyard, "No, I have to stop my mother, the people in the back house, why do you want to do business with people? Say it and smile generously, Shi family
has just made a fortune, and you must pay extra attention to your face. "
Mrs. Shi wanted to stop it, and hurriedly said: "Master, this is not an ordinary business, and all the ladies in the capital ......."
Lord Shi roared: "You too, obviously in the palace, why don't you stop your mother?" 10,000 taels of silver! How could my mother impulsively take out such a large amount of money?"
Mrs. Shi was reprimanded, so she could only stop aggrievedly.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Lord Shi was scolded by Mrs. Shiββ
"I'm using my own money, why are you in a hurry? Do you care?"
"Mother's ......"
"You have forgotten your ancestors, I will kill you, an unfilial son, come on, find me a stick, this unfilial son actually takes care of the old lady!"
"Oh, Mother!"
The maid cautiously asked Mrs. Shi, "Madam, the old lady is very angry, do you want to persuade her?"
Mrs. Shi smiled slightly, helped the jewelry on her head, Shi Shiran turned to leave, "The adults don't let me care, I'd better go back to sleep, besides, the mother teaches the child, of course."
After that, she really left.
Kanfu.
Guan Daren came out of the main courtyard with his face covered and muttered: "My temper is too great, so much money is spent, and I don't discuss it, I don't take me, the head of the family, in my eyes, and I don't let people .........mention it."
"Daddy?" Guan Mengsheng was puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Master Guan immediately grimaced and cleared his throat; "It's okay, I've been busy with official business recently, I'm resting in the study tonight, don't look for me if you're fine." With that, he walked away quickly.
Leaving Guan Mengsheng standing in place, confused, "Busy with official business? It's only the first day of the first lunar month, isn't it still a holiday? What are you busy with?" The high-ranking family has not been quiet this night.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the newspaper office returned to work, and the first issue of the newspaper in the 26th year of Yongming was issued. There is so much shocking news in today's newspapers.
ββFirst of all, on Chinese New Year's Eve, the news of King Jin's safety, and the smooth relief of King Jin. The courtiers already knew the news, but they didn't pay much attention to it. And for the people, this is a new thing.
"King Jin is really powerful, not only survived the assassination, but also ran to the disaster relief."
"Yes, I didn't care about going back to Beijing and went directly to Mazhou, I have the demeanor of the first prince." "Who did the assassination of King Jin?"
br /> "Who else could it be, his three uncles." "Shhhh
ββThe second is that Yunrongfang donated 100,000 taels of silver winter clothes to Mazhou to help the victims of the disaster in Mazhou survive natural disasters.
This is more shocking than the previous news, 100,000 taels of silver!
"Yunrongfang is really rich."
"Obediently, 100,000 taels, Rong Shizi is really generous." "Yunrongfang is so rich."
"According to Yunrongfang's income, 100,000 taels of silver should also be the entire family's wealth, right?" It's good, Yunrongfang earns money from Gaomen and donates it to the victims, Rong Shizi is righteous. "
- In the end, Empress Zhang took the lead, led by Concubine Shu, Concubine Zheng, and the second princess, and united the daughters of various families with a total investment of 200,000 taels of silver to Yunrongfang.
Yunrong Fang is preparing to build the Yunrong Workshop, hiring a large number of women to make clothes, the workshop in the capital is already in the site, ready to start construction, and will start recruiting after the construction is completed, and the requirements will be published in the newspaper at that time.
This news exploded more than the previous one, and the discussion began with a "Yu" sound.
"How can it be a woman?"
"Nonsense, that's production
The embroidery workshop for clothes, of course, only needs women. β
"The property under Rong Shizi's name is very rich, but unfortunately as long as a woman, I can't go." Can your wife go?
"My wife's embroidery is very poor, people don't have to."
Didn't you see that it was written a lot? If you don't have enough people, maybe you will relax the conditions?" Chen Liu, I remember that your daughter-in-law is doing a good job of embroidery, but what kind of Yunrong workshop do you want her to go to?" What workshop does the woman go to? Let the woman go out and earn money, what will it become!
There are all sorts of attitudes among men.
But there are not too many voices of special opposition, after all, it is an embroidery workshop, and it is natural for the embroidery workshop to recruit women, and no one can say that it is unreasonable. And in a certain alley.
A girl was tucking the soles of her shoes under a tree while listening to the newspaper read to their illiterate women, all of whom listened with great interest. When she read the front, she just laughed, listened interestingly, and did not delay the work at hand.
But when she read the back, the woman was stunned.
Yunrong Workshop?
Recruit a lot of women?
Her heart suddenly warmed up.
Her embroidery work is average, and when there was no Tuan Tuan before, she couldn't do anything at her husband's house, her two children
It's all mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law has a bad temper and doesn't let her take the child.
Her daily work is all things at home and outside the house, and she even has to fetch water to wash her mother-in-law's feet.
Her mother-in-law and husband always complained that she was just eating idle meals.
But these days, how can a woman go out and find a job? There isn't much proper work for them!
The daughter-in-law next door is good at embroidery and can earn a lot of money, and her in-laws always dislike her for idle meals.
Later, with Tuan Tuan, my mother-in-law had bad eyes and couldn't do Tuan Tuan's manual work.
After she was able to work and earn a few copper plates, her mother-in-law looked much better at her, and rarely said that she was eating idle food, so she could now sit under the tree and listen to the newspaper with her mother-in-law......
If she can enter the Yunrong Workshop, she also has an income, can no one say that she is idle?
Is it possible for her to support herself even if there is an accident?
A light slowly appeared in the woman's eyes.
Rong Shizi founded Tuan Tuan and gave her an improvement in life, so will the Yunrong Workshop that Rong Shizi is about to establish completely change her life?
She prayed in her heart that everything would be good for Rong Shizi. A village on the outskirts of Beijing.
Aunt Fang, come on!
Aunt Fang raised her head suspiciously, probably because she had been bowing her head for too long, her neck was a little uncomfortable, she rubbed it and asked, "What's wrong?"
The village chief's daughter-in-law kept beckoning.
Aunt Fang hesitated for a moment, she hadn't finished her work today, and she couldn't delay it at all, otherwise she wouldn't be able to earn much money..... she was supporting her family alone, and she needed money everywhere, but there wasn't much money to do.
But after thinking about it, she still put down her work, walked over, and smiled: Sister Liu, what's wrong?
The village chief's wife had a smile on her face: "Guess what I just heard, Rong Shizi persuaded the queen to take the lead in investing money, and Shizi wanted to build a Yunrong workshop and hire women to work!
Aunt Fang's eyes lit up.
That's Yunrong Fang, the recently famous Yunrong Fang!
That's the son of the world!
The business under Rong Shizi's name, Yueyin is very good, and it is the most enviable job for everyone, and there are people in the village who work as delivery men in Tuantuan, and the life at home is visibly better.
It's the job she lives on now, and it's also Tuantuan. Without Rong Shizi and Tuan Tuan, after her husband's death, she may not be able to survive now.
But soon, Aunt Fang lowered her head in disappointment
, "I haven't read a book, and I don't have any skills, can Yunrong Workshop want me?"
The village chief's wife immediately replied: "When the time comes, don't you just ask?" If you have the opportunity, you must not let it go, I see that it says that a large number of women are recruited, it shouldn't be just a few people, right? It's just a trip, if you can really find a stable job, you can raise your children well, and you will also have a hard time......
Aunt Fang's eyes immediately turned red, but she immediately said urgently: "Then Sister Liu will help me pay attention to when the Yunrong Workshop will recruit people, I'll hurry up and take a look."
Don't worry, I'll help you keep an eye on it, speaking of which, this Rong Shizi is really a good person...... Some people are talking, some people are secretly looking forward and praying.
There were also some officials who got together and voiced their opposition to this -
Lord Wang was filled with righteous indignation: What did Rong Shizi do? What does it look like to recruit a large number of women to do work? Moreover, he even asked the ladies to cooperate with him and let the ladies invest in the business!
Master Zhang immediately nodded and agreed very much: "No, my family actually invested two thousand taels!" Two thousand taels, she really doesn't treat money as money.
Lord Wang: "My family invested 3,000 taels!!"
"My family also voted for it, and it was also two thousand taels."
Who isn't? Those who entered the palace that day were all invested. "I really don't know what to think, I'm too bold." Rong Zhao, it's really hateful!
Lord Wang was curious: "Didn't you stop it?"
These words stabbed the hornet's nest, and angry voices rose and fell.
How to stop it? There are a lot of reasons in my family, all queens are taking the lead, what meaningful things, anyway, if I say one sentence, she will block me for ten sentences.
The one in your family will explain to you, and Neiko only replied to me - I use my dowry, and you have to take care of it?
Uchiko also said the same, I don't want to care about her dowry, but it's just wasted, what kind of investment to make, what kind of Yunrong workshop to build? Is this what women are supposed to do?!
β¦β¦ Fortunately, it was the queen who took the lead, and the ladies of the capital participated.
"Rong Zhao is very good at doing business, maybe he won't lose money, but he will lose face, but the ladies of the capital are all involved, as well as the queen and the palace concubine, but it's okay......
"I really didn't expect that they would be able to come up with so much money, they can't manage it, they can't manage it, they can't manage it, and now they are becoming more and more unable to manage it, these women don't
Know what's wrong, getting tougher and tougher.
Lord Wang was suddenly satisfied.
It turns out that not only my own family is like this, but everyone is the same!
Compared with other adults, although his wife also invested three thousand taels, she still explained to herself with good words...... That's pretty good, right?
Lord Wang wanted to open it, and he was in a good mood. After the other adults complained, they found that everyone was the same, and their mood gradually improved.
Rong Zhao didn't care about the turmoil outside.
The queen took the lead, and all the ladies participated, so this matter is not a maverick event, even if there are adults who are very breathless, no
Full, look at other adults, you can think about it.
So, as long as a group is fully united, they can do a lot of things that they didn't think they could do. Rong Zhao arranged the construction of the Yunrong Workshop.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, she sent the king's people out of Beijing, and there were several large carts of winter clothes with her.
Rong Zhao said to Lu Da: "If you take these winter clothes on the road, if you bring too much, the speed will be slow, and it is impossible to buy winter clothes in the capital for 100,000 taels of silver.
"I have sent people to Linfu and Bianzhou to buy, you go all the way to Mazhou, meet them on the way, and bring winter clothes into Mazhou. I left 10,000 taels to buy grain in Bianzhou, and you also brought it into Mazhou and handed it over to King Jin.
Lu Da was the subordinate of King Jin who entered the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Hearing this, Lu Da took a deep breath and bent down to salute: "Xie Rong Shizi, Shizi is thoughtful, Lu Da thanks Rong Shizi for King Jin and the people of Mazhou.
Rong Zhao thought very well and arranged it properly.
From Chinese New Year's Eve to today, but only three days, he can already set off and enter Mazhou as quickly as possible, Rong Shizi really wants to save people, and he is really worried about Mazhou.
Rong Zhao shook his head and helped him. After a pause, she asked, "How is the king?"
Lu Da's expression suddenly became solemn, he became more and more respectful, lowered his head, and took out a letter from his pocket, King Jin said that if the prince asked about him, he would give this letter to the prince. β
Rong Zhao was stunned.
After giving her the letter, General Lu got on his horse and left with the convoy.
And Rong Zhao stood in place for a long time with the letter before slowly opening it, there were only a few lines in the letter, but every word was very serious, like a stroke by stroke-
I'm all right, I just miss you from time to time, and I hope you're okay in the capital. Zhao, wait for me. Nameless.
The last few words, which are exceptionally light and incoherent, seem to be hesitant to write.
Rong Zhao stood outside the carriage and watched for a moment without saying a word.
She only got this letter when she asked about it. If she didn't ask, wouldn't he let people bother him?
This guy has a delicate heart.
"Shizi?" The stone looked at it suspiciously.
Rong Zhao put the letter away, tightened his clothes, turned around and jumped into the carriage, and ordered: "Go back."
In the twenty-sixth year of Yongming, the fifteenth day of the first month, the Lantern Festival.
There is no curfew tonight, it is the most lively night of the year, the streets and alleys of the capital are lit up, and there are several rows of glass lamps hanging outside Fuluxuan.
The people surrounded the outside of Fu Lu Xuan.
Pei Chengjue beckoned from afar: "Ah Zhao!"
The carriage couldn't move anymore, so Rong Zhao jumped down from the carriage and walked towards Pei Chengjue and them.
Beside him were people dressed in all kinds of clothes, occasionally a luxurious carriage came, but it could not be squeezed in, children with lamps in their hands, laughing and laughing, and the elders of the family followed carefully, for fear of getting lost.
There are both men and women, and it is very lively. On both sides of the road, the shops are brightly lit, and the shopkeepers spontaneously hang lanterns on the street to illuminate the street.
Rong Zhao walked in this bustle and paused slightly.
In the overlapping light and dark, it seems that the times are overlapping, and the Qingming Riverside Picture she liked when she was a child never thought that she would one day walk in this picture.
Thinking about the memory, at that moment, she even felt like she was in a dream. "Hurry up." Not far away, Zhang Er shouted excitedly. Rong Zhao returned to his senses and smiled slightly: "It's here." She quickened her pace and walked towards them.
Pei Chengjue, Pei Guanshan, Guan Mengsheng and other group shareholders are almost all there, as well as Zhang Changxing, these non-group shareholders, the young sons gathered together, and a large group of people were very eye-catching.
As soon as Rong Zhao walked over, Guan Mengsheng hurriedly said: "It's time to wait for you, what have you been busy with lately? No one can see it, hurry up, the boat is ready, let's go to the lake to see the lights.
It's rare that there is no snow today, and although it is cold, the air seems to be warm amid the crowd.
Rong Zhao said with a smile: Of course, I am busy with the affairs of the Yunrong Workshop, and the Yunrong Workshop will start work after the Lantern Festival, and there are many things. Guan Mengsheng couldn't help but sigh: "You really can't be idle for a moment." As they spoke, a group of people walked towards the lake.
Rong Zhao's left and right were Pei Chengjue and Pei Guanshan as usual, and the three of them were surrounded in the middle.
Rong Zhao was puzzled: "What about Zhang San?"
Speaking of which, she hadn't seen it since the palace banquet
Zhang Changyan. I thought that if there was Queen Zhang, Zhang San would follow her to eat and drink this year, but I didn't expect that he didn't appear in front of her at all.
Pei Chengjue shook his head: "I haven't seen him much recently, so I don't know what he's doing."
Behind him, Zhang Changxing tiptoed and turned his head to look, Strange, the third child was still there before, where is he running now? He doesn't know what's going on lately, Elimination
It's very heavy, and it's a big New Year's Day, and he's lost a lot of weight, and my dad is now whispering to him, for fear that something will happen to him......
Guan Mengsheng: "Maybe something happened, right?"
Rong Zhao's face was full of doubts.
- Zhang San is so big-hearted, what can make him like this?" Forget it, no matter him, the third son of the Zhang family, he can't lose it. Zhang Changxing shook his head and retracted his gaze.
Beside him, Pei Guanshan talked about others: "Your Fu Lu Xuan is really arrogant, there are many people who guess the lantern riddle tonight, but your Fu Lu Xuan has a prize is a glass lamp, and Fenghua Street is crowded with people, and you can't squeeze in.
Rong Zhao laughed: "You still lack a glass lamp?"
Pei Guanshan shook his head and looked at Rong Zhao's hand: "Why don't you hold a lamp?" Occupy a hand. Rong Zhao was a little puzzled, why are you all holding a lamp, what are you doing?
Behind him, Guan Mengsheng put a hand on Rong Zhao's shoulder, and said, "Rong Shizi, what's the matter with you? I don't know! There is a custom in the Dayan Lantern Festival, carrying a lamp in your hand can be given to the person you like.
"Huh?" Rong Zhao was stunned, she really didn't know.
Guan Mengsheng: "This is the only time of the year when young people can be lively except for Qixi Festival, and you will know when you get to the river.
Nowadays, marriage pays attention to "the words of the matchmaker of the parents", but which young person does not look forward to finding a person who is in love? The opportunity to meet men and women is very positive.
The unmarried are active, the married are also having fun, and the married are seizing the opportunity to meet. There are too few opportunities like this, how can it not be lively tonight? Pei Guanshan was expressionless and took off Guan Mengsheng's hand on Rong Zhao's shoulder.
Pei Chengjue took advantage of the situation to switch Mengsheng, looked at Rong Zhao, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed together: "Do you want Ah Zhao? Anyway, I don't have a sweetheart, this lamp can be given to you.
Pei Guanshan: "I can give it to you too."
He looked down at the lamp in his hand, in previous years he didn't bring a lamp when he went out, and even last year he didn't come out, when he came out this year, the next person asked if he wanted to bring a lamp, he didn't know why, subconsciously brought it out.
appearance
Zhao looked at the lamps of the two, both of them were delicate and exquisitely made.
Seeing that she was looking at the lights of the two, Pei Chengjue and Pei Guanshan were inexplicably a little nervous, and they both maintained the posture of handing out the lights.
Behind him, Zhang Changxing probed, "You guys will definitely have endless lamps later, Rong Zhao, let me tell you, every Lantern Festival, those girls are very bold, the most popular in previous years were Pei Shizi and Pei Ergongzi, this year it must be you, no one can steal your limelight!"
Rong Zhao smiled, and the red mole on his forehead moved slightly, "I'm looking forward to it." After speaking, she said to the two people beside her: "You better take it yourself, I'll wait for the lights to be collected later."
When the two heard this, they reluctantly withdrew their hands.
Pei Chengjue's voice was smiling: "Then you will have endless lights later, it's almost there, it's a little dark ahead, you should be careful." Rong Zhao nodded and looked ahead curiously.
There was a relatively dark place in front, but on the lake in front, the boats were brightly lit, and the sound of bustle could be heard from afar, and she unconsciously quickened her pace.
When you walk through the darkness and walk to the river, you will see the bustle.
At this time, Zhang Changyan was hiding behind a tree.
He was with Zhang Changxing and them before, but when Rong Zhao came, he subconsciously avoided it, but he didn't want to leave, so he fell far behind him and secretly looked at them.
He followed the mighty crowd of people in front of him all the way to the river.
Rong Zhao was short, and he was in the middle of the crowd, the sky was dark, and he could only see Rong Zhao's figure occasionally, and he couldn't see people clearly at all. Zhang San was in a mixed mood.
The mighty group of people had already walked to the shore, and he was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to step forward or not, and his eyes were very complicated and tangled. To go or not to go?
At this time, a hand was on his shoulder, and a familiar voice sounded: Hey, Zhang San, what are you doing sneakily?
Zhang Changyan froze on the spot. He stiffened and turned his head, and Rong Zhao's good-looking face appeared in front of him.
In the dim light, her face loomed, and a pair of clear eyes seemed to reflect the figure of a person, with a long body like jade and a graceful demeanor.
It seems to be in front of you, and it seems to be on the edge of the sky.
At this time, Rong Zhaozheng looked at him suspiciously, with puzzlement and surprise in his eyes.
