The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

After Pingyang arranged the government affairs properly, he took a group of guards and servants and followed Pei Yunqian on the journey back to Yizhou.

The autumn is crisp and the roads are clear. Just after noon on the first day out of Beijing, a group of people rushed to the Jingzhe Station.

Pei Yunqian led a group of people into the post house, and he handed over Lu Yin to let Yi Cheng lead Pingyang and a few maids to the room to rest, and assigned the boys to feed the horses and look after the luggage, and he went into the guest room after everything was settled. rest.

The condition of the posthouse in Beijing was good, and after Pingyang was served by the girls, she changed her coat and took a bath, then she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

When Pingyang woke up, the sun was setting, Yuzhu outside heard Pingyang getting up, she hurried inside, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, is Madam hungry?"

Ping Yang asked, "Are we going out for dinner?"

Yuzhu replied: "Just now some servants came to this posthouse, saying that Mr. Biao specially asked them to cook food for you. If you want to use it now, the servants will order them to bring it in."

Ping Yang said: "If that's the case, let them bring it in."

Yuzhu led her away, and after a while, she brought in two servants carrying food boxes. The two servants were both neat and tidy. When they saw Pingyang, they greeted her respectfully and put the food box away. Take out the meals one by one and put them on the table.

Sitting at the table, Ping Yang saw that the food served was her favorite, she said with a smile: "Cousin is really a careful person, he still remembers my taste."

Yuzhu picked up the bamboo chopsticks to prepare dishes for Pingyang, and said with a smile: "This place is no better than at home. My cousin was worried that you might not get used to it, so he went out to buy ingredients, and rewarded the kitchen servants with a lot of money, so they made such a dish." Come to a table, you see, these dishes look not bad, you only used a few pieces of dim sum for lunch, if you can eat more, you can use more."

Ping Yang nodded, picked up the bamboo chopsticks and began to use, before she knew it, she was full from eating.

Ping Yang stood up, stroked his belly slightly, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the food made in this post house to be very tasty."

Seeing that Pingyang was having a good meal, Yuzhu suggested: "Madam used up a lot today, why don't I accompany you out for a walk to refresh yourself. There is a small garden behind this post house, let's go there for a stroll."

Nothing happened, Pingyang agreed, and followed Yuzhu out of the post house.

The master and servant had just walked to the gate of the garden when they happened to meet Pei Yunqian. Pei Yunqian saw Pingyang and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten yet? Can you still say it?"

Pingyang smiled back and said that he had eaten, and then told Pei Yunqian: "We are in a hurry, you have worked hard, from now on, cousin don't have to waste a lot of time because of my food, I will eat whatever is in the posthouse That is, I am not a picky eater."

Hearing this, Pei Yunqian frowned slightly, and asked back: "Aren't you picky about food?" She said with a chuckle: "I remember that in the palace, there were twenty or thirty cooks who served you. That's it. , you are still yelling that the food is unpalatable and you refuse to eat. At that time, my aunt put a lot of effort in order to let you eat more."

Referring to the past, Pingyang covered his mouth with a smile and said, "It's been 800 years, and people are not so ignorant now, but my cousin insists on remembering these hypocritical things about me, oops! It's really embarrassing."

Pei Yunqian smiled heartily, and replied: "What's the matter? It's not a big deal to be picky eaters, and it's okay for girls to be more delicate."

Yuzhu on the side heard the words, laughed and joked: "In the eyes of Mr. Biao, any shortcomings are not a problem with our princess."

Pingyang rolled his eyes at Yuzhu, and said: "That's my cousin's generosity, so I think these hypocritical problems of mine are not worth mentioning."

Yuzhu echoed with a smile: "Young Master Biao is indeed a magnanimous person. If any girl from now on marries Mr. Biao, and someone like Mr. Biao knows how to take care of you, it will be a blessing in eight lifetimes."

After hearing Yuzhu's words, Pei Yunqian's smile faded, Pei Yunqian cleared his throat, and said angrily: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense."

"Well, let me go and see if the boys have settled down the carriages and horses?" With that said, Pei Yunqian turned around and left.

After he walked out for a while, he turned his head and told the two of them: "It's getting dark, you go back after a stroll, you have to go on your way tomorrow, get settled early, and close the windows before going to bed. It's an official post, but when you go out, you'd better be more cautious."

Yuzhu agreed one by one, the master and servant said goodbye to Pei Yunqian, and walked slowly towards the garden.

This garden is not big, there are women in twos and threes who also come out and disappear after dinner, this is an official post, and the people who stay here are all officials and nobles.

After wandering around with Yuzhu for a while, Pingyang felt a little tired, so he came to sit in a pavilion. A 40-year-old lady was sitting in the pavilion. Seeing that Pingyang was handsome and well-behaved, she greeted her with a smile. : "Little Madam is also from Beijing, right?"

Ping Yang greeted the woman with a smile, and replied: "I am indeed from Beijing, and I plan to go back to my mother's family in the south to visit relatives."

The woman said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I am also from Beijing, and I am also returning to my mother's house."

The two sat in the pavilion and chatted for a few words. The woman's maid found her and replied, "Ma'am, the master is here to look for you."

The woman turned her head when she heard the sound, and she saw that her husband was waiting for her not far away. She waved to him, and then said to Pingyang: "Little madam, the one who is talking to you at the gate of the garden is Your husband, he is waiting for you to go back over there."

Ping Yang looked in the direction the woman was pointing at and saw Pei Yunqian standing there, she didn't bother to explain to the person who just met by chance, she just replied: "It's getting late, I should go back too, Madam goodbye. "

The woman also exchanged some pleasantries, and the two left the pavilion one after the other, and each went towards the person who was waiting for them.

Before Pingyang could reach Pei Yunqian, he heard Pei Yunqian slightly scold him: "It's getting dark, why don't you go back to your room."

Ping Yang glanced at him, and replied: "It's okay to go back and forth, I want to sit outside for a while."

Pei Yunqian looked at Pingyang, as if treating a child, and said earnestly: "Although this is an official post, but there are many people, so you should seldom go outside after dark."

Ping Yang nodded, followed Pei Yunqian back, Pei Yunqian kept sending their master and servant to the door of the guest room, couldn't help telling Yuzhu: "Remember to close the windows and lock the door when you go back."

Yuzhu quickly agreed, and Pei Yunqian then left.

Ping Yang returned to the house, washed up briefly and went to bed, because she fell asleep in the second half of the day, she didn't feel sleepy, she just lay flat on the bed in a daze.

Pingyang was bored when she heard a knock on the door, Yuzhu hurriedly ran over to open the door, it was a servant in the post house, she smiled and said hello to Yuzhu, handed over a few small books in her hand, and said Said: "This is a little book that the young master who came with his wife during the day entrusted the old man to send it over. The young master said that his wife would read it to relieve boredom."

Yuzhu thanked the mother-in-law, locked the door again, turned around and walked up to Pingyang with a small book, and said with a smile: "Master Biao is really careful."

Pingyang took the books, and seeing that they were some of her favorite fables, Pingyang smiled and said: "I'm just worried that I don't have a living to pass the time, and this short story book is just in time."
