Yuxi Episode (11)
In the middle of March, Xinyue received a wedding invitation from the Korean public. After thinking about it for a day and a night, Xinyue decided to go to the wedding banquet. It was Zhou Minxue who was sorry for her. If she avoided people, it would seem that she had made a mistake.
When meeting an acquaintance, Xinyue unconsciously lowered her head again. However, soon she straightened her spine and raised her head.
After a banquet, Xinyue found that it was actually not that difficult to face everyone.
On the way back, Xinyue said: "Qingkong, do you think they really didn't look down on me?" The princess has the support of his grandson, even if he has thoughts in his heart, he dare not show them on the face.
After a pause, Qingkong said: "Princess, I heard that Zhou Minxue has returned to his hometown. In this life, he will never return to Beijing again."
Xinyue was a little melancholy, but she quickly put it down: "He has always wanted to have a child of his own, so getting married and having children after returning home will be considered as fulfilling his wish."
Qingkong said: "Princess, Doctor Le said that as long as you take good care of your body, you can have children in the future."
"Let's talk about it when the time comes!" It's hard to be a stepmother, she doesn't want to be a stepmother. If she can't give birth, she won't remarry. Anyway, with Hong Lang around, he will have no worries about food and clothing in this life.
Seeing this, Qingkong didn't say much. Now the princess is still in the period of filial piety, even if she wants to say goodbye, she has to complete the filial piety. And that was two years later. Two years later, it is not too late to persuade.
Everyone in the Yun family has to observe filial piety for twenty-seven months. However, Feng Xiaohan, as a member of the Feng family, only needs to observe the country's filial piety for a hundred days.
After a hundred days, her mother took care of her. It's a pity that the well-matched family backed away from Feng Xiaohan. The second lady Feng was willing to lower her requirements, but unfortunately she couldn't find someone she wanted even so.
Second Madam Feng said to her husband with a sad face: "Master, what do you think my little Han should do?"
Master Feng Er said: "Don't look for nobles, as long as you work hard to make progress, it doesn't matter if your family background is ordinary."
Second Madam Feng wept secretly: "If I had known, I should have listened to my mother that day and let Xiaohan always enter the palace." Having never been in contact with the grandson, my daughter would not put all her heart in the grandson. body.
Master Feng Er said: "What's the point of saying this now?" It was his parents' decision, and he couldn't object, let alone his wife.
Second Madam Feng was silent for a while and said: "Master, why don't you let it out! Let's take Xiaohan out of here, maybe this child will figure it out.
"If you change the environment, you can start over.
Master Feng Er refused without even thinking about it: "No way. My parents are old, so I can't let them out." Moreover, he himself is not young anymore, and he has no intention of taking a step forward.
Second Madam Feng cried uncontrollably: "Master, with Xiaohan's current state, even if she gets married, I'm worried about her well-being."
"We have done what we have to do, and she can't help it if she wants to." Anyway, it is absolutely impossible to let it out. Even if he agrees, parents will not agree.
This matter has reached a deadlock.
At the end of May, Yuxi's mother and son arrived in Luoyang.
Looking at the bustling market, Yuxi smiled and said: "Let's stay here for a few days!"
This time I went out, passing through many states and counties. Occasionally, when Yu Xi gets interested, she will stay there for two days. Qiyou and Qixuan have no objection to this. The purpose of going out with Yuxi this time was to let her relax.
Qi Xuan smiled and said: "Mother, Luoyang Peony, the thousand-year-old imperial capital. Mother, it happens to be the season for peonies to bloom. Let's just stay a little longer and enjoy the peonies here."
Yuxi nodded and said: "In that case, let's find a place to live!" She doesn't like staying in an inn, because the inn is too noisy.
Many people like to be lively when they are old, but Yuxi is still the same as young, preferring to be quiet and not to be noisy. So those concubines wanted to use their children to impress Yuxi, but they all failed.
Half an hour later, they lived in an exquisite courtyard with two entrances.
Yuxi walked into this house and said: "The original owner of this house is probably from Jiangnan!" Small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, terraces and attics are the characteristics of Jiangnan architecture.
Qiyou smiled and said: "Mother's vision is really sharp. The owner of this house is from Luoyang. However, when he was sixteen years old, his family had an accident and he went to Jiangnan. Later, he wanted to come back to take care of himself, so he asked people to build this house .”
"It seems that he's doing well in Jiangnan?" If not, he wouldn't have built a courtyard with such a view. This house costs at least eight thousand taels of silver.
Qiyou hummed and said, "Mother, this man's name is Chen Kang'an."
Qixuan liked to drink tea, and upon hearing this, he asked, "Ayou, is this Chen Kang'an you're talking about the one who is known as the tea king in Jiangnan?"
Keiyu nodded.
Yuxi had never heard of Chen Kang'an, she only drank scented tea made by the people around her. But after hearing this, Yu Xi smiled. The big tree attracts the wind, and the king of tea and salt generally don't have a good ending.
After a day's rest, Yuxi went shopping. After shopping around, I found many businessmen with foreign accents.
Tired from walking, Yuxi said to Qixuan and the two brothers: "Let's go to the teahouse and have a sit."
When a group of people entered the teahouse, they attracted the attention of everyone in the teahouse. One reason is that the mother and son are all elderly people, and Yuxi also has a silver thread on one end. Secondly, the mother and son are not ordinary people at first glance.
Qiyou wants a private room, but it's a pity that there will be no private room in this teahouse. In the lobby, there are still two tables.
Yuxi smiled and said: "It's more interesting to sit in the lobby while drinking tea and listening to people chatting."
Qiyou smiled lightly and said, "Mother, we may not understand what they said." In the capital, everyone basically speaks official Chinese, no matter if it is a teahouse or a restaurant. But Luoyang dialect, they couldn't understand it. Furthermore, not all the people here are from Luoyang, there are also businessmen from other places.
Xiao Er came over and asked, "Guest officer, what kind of tea do you want to drink?"
Yuxi smiled and said: "Come and have a pot of peony tea." Now that I have come to Luoyang, I naturally want to drink the famous local tea.
In addition to a pot of peony tea, I also ordered several pastries such as peony cakes and peony cakes.
Xiaoer said enthusiastically: "Guest officer, our teahouse has a new kind of pastry called sweet shredded coconut glutinous rice cake, would you like to try it?"
Qixuan said: "Glutinous rice is not easy to digest, so don't use it."
"Give me a plate." Glutinous rice is not easy to digest, but it is okay to have a plate to taste.
Xiaoer smiled openly and said, "That's great."
The peony tea was served quickly. Yuxi smiled and asked Xiao Er: "I see many foreign merchants on the street, is there any happy event in Luoyang recently?"
Xiaoer was a little surprised: "The next day will be Luoyang's annual peony flower show." He thought that these guest officials also came here to enjoy the flowers.
Qiyou had heard about the Luoyang Flower Show: "As far as I know, the Peony Flower Show is held on the tenth day of May every year."
"It's usually like this, but something happened today that delayed it for half a month. The guest officials just happened to catch up." He was still very discerning, these few were either rich or expensive. Going to the flower show should be fine.
Yuxi smiled and said: "It seems that we are lucky." Since we have met, we must not miss it.
ps: I have something to do at home today, so I will update these first. The second is at twelve o'clock in the evening.
