Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 167, Eight Carriers

Yuan Xiu slept in the sedan chair, even though the music was loud outside.

Relying on her young physique, she originally thought that she would have a night of excitement or speculation, but the joy of returning home was all sadness. Right in front of your eyes, it is normal for Zhongye to speculate.

But after she got into the sedan chair, she was really taken aback. She could feel that there were still people in this space after the curtain of the sedan chair was lowered. A humble voice said softly, "I will take off the hijab for Madam, so I can sleep well." gone."

The sweet voice carried the immaturity unique to age, Yuan Xiu also clearly remembered that Xi Niang did not follow into the sedan chair, and when a pair of arms took off her hijab, Yuan Xiu was still in a daze, how many times could the second person stay in the sedan chair ?
The girl who studies in Xinji can manage her family well and is good at poetry, but her eyes are always on a small town like Xinji. Before she stepped into the eight-carried sedan chair tonight, she didn't know the spaciousness inside.

Mr. Niu in this province can sit in eight large sedan chairs, but when Yuan Xiu arranged meals for him and the provincial officials, he never thought of going out to see the rumored eight-carrying sedan chairs.

Yuan Hui and Sister Ting are most likely to run around, and they are also very curious. They can ask [-] whys with their mouths, but their main hours are limited to reading. Maybe leave.

An eight-carrying sedan chair is equivalent to a small room, and a family member can stand in it. Some people may say that the weight has increased?There are eight bearers, not to mention two people, and two more suitcases of luggage.

As usual, there were windows on both sides of the sedan chair, which were blocked by hazy bamboo curtains. Under the candlelight, there was a delicate, jade-like base. Before Yuanxiu had time to look closely, her eyes were attracted by the speaker. Tall girl, she bowed her waist, she couldn't tell whether she was ten or 12 years old, and she stepped on a small stick under her feet so that she could straighten her arms to take off her head covering.

At this time, she folded the hijab carefully, opened several boxes, and put the hijab in it.

Yuan Xiu was taken aback again, there was still a small table in this sedan chair, on which was a set of tea sets with big red happy characters, and the round porcelain bowls with happy characters were shining brightly.

Before she could say anything, the girl cleverly poured a bowl of tea and brought it up with both hands. Under the candlelight, her face was half-lowered and half-upturned, her face was crystal clear and fair, and she said with a smile: "Madam is drinking tea, I dripped mint dew, and it will cool down after a sip."

Both Yanyan and Feng's family in Nanyang Hou's Mansion are still called Grandma Shizi until today. This is because Luan Jing has no official position. Ya Tou is also called like this, although it is too early, but there is nothing wrong with it.

Sooner or later, that's what it's called.

Before entering her in-law's house, wealth and power came again, Yuanxiu couldn't help but catch the tea.

She is also thirsty.

Yuanxiu, who knew the itinerary for a long time, did not live overnight in this distance of a hundred miles after Yanyan went out. There are three market towns in the middle, with an average of more than 30 miles. Compared with Xinji, the scale is smaller, Nanyanghou The government has the manpower and material resources to drive the night road, but the Nanyang Hou father and son can't afford to stay up late.

Let Luan Jing eat flower wine and stay up all night, he is still young but it's okay.

The Huguogong's mansion didn't want to stop halfway. They drove the Baili road to Xinji during the day, and took the boat on the Baili road at night. It was no problem for them to walk two hundred miles day and night. Have a good body that corresponds to an official position.

There is another reason. The market towns in the middle of Baili Road do not meet the requirements of the Duke's Mansion and the Princess Mansion. The prince's marriage cannot be hasty. Additional renovation of other market towns will involve a waste of time and money. The layout of the town, the official roads, and the wharf, there are a few jealousy in the compliments. After all, the high school is the best, and the money is spent like sea water. In fact, the protector and princess are quite restrained, and what can be saved is saved. down.

The distance of a hundred miles is not too much on the horse, so he simply went out of Yuan's house and went straight to the pier to catch up with the night of hard work.

The men don't have any troubles. When it's convenient for them, they can jump off the horse. It can be behind the official road tree, but Yuan Xiu can't. Who can she order in the sedan chair?At that time, she didn't know that there were maids in the eight-carried sedan chair, even if she knew there were, she was ashamed to open her mouth to her husband's maid, after all, it was a wedding night.

She didn't dare to eat more since noon, and drank more tea to cleanse her stomach in the afternoon to prevent herself from waking up at night.

This is a three-volt period, sweating, and not eating food or tea, which is only for young people with a strong physique.

Quenching thirst, and the sedan chair oppresses people from all directions, and the girl's hospitality makes Yuan Xiu obey her words.

She drank it in one sip, as the girl said, the mint flavor lingered on her lips, cooling her whole body, which also woke Yuan Xiu up, she controlled herself, and took another sip slowly, refusing to be thirsty like the first sip.

This girl has a delicate stomach, seeing this, she whispered: "Madam, just use it, there is a clean bucket in this sedan chair." She smiled softly: "Otherwise, if the wedding sedan chair does not leave halfway, how can I survive this night?"

Yuanxiu's face turned red when she was told, she said yes and thought it was inappropriate, this is the first girl from her in-law's family she met, she should be decent, compassionate, kind, and show all the good qualities of a schoolgirl.

She immediately drank the dry tea and smiled back: "I'm sorry for you, this tea is delicious."

The girl came to pick up the tea bowl with her favorite hands, but in fact the little table was on one side of the sedan chair, although it was by her hand, it was also by Yuanxiu's hand. The master and servant sat one by one and stood on different sides of the small table.

"Then let's drink another bowl. I'm afraid my wife won't be able to stay up late, so I added wolfberry and red date juice."

Yuan Xiu refused to drink any more. She couldn't really wash her hands in the sedan chair in the middle of the night. She had a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and there was a spare tea. She could continue to moisten her throat this night, which was enough for her to feel happy. She who walked out should seize this rare opportunity to learn about her husband's family from the girl.

"I'm sorry, sister, I don't know what to call my sister?" Yuan Xiu regained his composure.

The girl said in a panic: "My name is Zi Shao, Madam calls me by my name."

The calm Yuanxiu could see from her composure, hey, it's strange, Zishao's fingers seemed to be twisted like handkerchiefs, she was actually nervous.

Yuan Xiu couldn't help smiling, girls who study don't beat or curse, girls from high school, why are you afraid?
The messy Tang Wei successfully passed on "Cousin is being chased", and also successfully peeped at Yun Zhan's autographed letter. Of course, he would not pass on the reason why he came to Hegong, because of his outstanding skills in three-inch tongues, which made Yuanxiu compete against the marriage. spread throughout the capital.

Then he took the risk to read the letter written by Yuan Xiu himself. The hated Yun Zhan drove him away from Beijing at that time, but before he left Beijing in a mess, he still spread the small order in the letter all over the capital. Bosom friends have come to the door to inquire that the girl who has been engaged has shown her talents, so let's take a look at this letter.

Yun Zhan was reluctant to take it out, but the Duke and Princess were overjoyed and persuaded his son to show it to everyone. The daughter-in-law's handwriting was good, and Xiao Ling's writing was also good. After the relatives commented on the questions, they all praised them. Whether it is the Duke's Mansion or the Princess Mansion, they all know that the wife of Shizi who is about to marry is a girl who cannot be underestimated.

Zi Shao really wanted to please her, but she was afraid that it was not the right place to please her.

　The typhoon in Shaoxing has passed. Recently, I always wake up early at night, like two or three o’clock. After waking up, I can’t fall asleep. I catch up on sleep in the morning. When I open my eyes and see the sky is bright, I thought it was the sun. Rain, without the thunder and rain of the previous few days.

　　Fireworks, bye.
