Graceful spring color

Chapter 61 Young Master An

On the first day back to Xie's Mansion, everyone was in peace.

Xie Fengyue was happy and at ease, strolling around this huge courtyard, regretting that she could no longer see the Rufeng Courtyard that she had longed for.

Behind her were Hua Rui and Huan Xue, one holding a cloak and the other holding a food box.

Rufeng Yuan is huge. In the main courtyard alone, there are pavilions, pavilions, pools and pavilions, both of which stand against the backdrop of green pines and cypresses. There are also rockeries and rocks dotted with wisterias and green bamboos, not to mention the large peach groves in the courtyard. .

The three of them walked leisurely on the path paved with green bricks, walking on all kinds of fallen leaves. In addition to the peach trees, the willow trees on both sides of Rufeng Courtyard were also neatly arranged, with sparse branches, and the sounds of unknown birds were lingering. It sounds very pleasant to the ear.

Hua Rui sighed as she walked, "If this windy courtyard was placed outside, it would be used as a house for ordinary aristocratic families."

Xie Fengyue nodded noncommittally, "Why else would there be rumors among the people that 'the swallows in front of Wang Xietang rarely fly into people's homes'."

Huanxue looked around without any strange expression, but what she said made Hua Rui, who had always been calm, speechless. "This kind of yard can only be considered average in the Langya Wang family."

Huarui pointed at the rows of willow trees, and then pointed at the pavilion in the middle of the lake, "Can this one be called ordinary?"

"Well, the courtyard Lang Jun allocated for us to live outside is similar to this."

Huarui didn't know what she meant by this, but Xie Fengyue knew how luxurious the Langya Wang family was. The courtyard where the craftsmen lived could be compared to Feng Yuan.

Xie Fengyue suddenly thought of the Xibo Pavilion where Young Master Yan came to Chenjun and the courtyard where she lived outside and couldn't help laughing. It seemed like it was really hard on him.

Suddenly, Xie Fengyue saw a few people in Taolin not far away. She was alert and surprised, and immediately pulled the two of them to hide under the willow tree. Then she said, "Wang Xue, please put on your cloak. The person coming seems to be Gongzi An." "

Although Huarui was confused by Xie Fengyue's words, she still cooperated and handed the cloak to Huanxue who was standing aside.

Xie Fengyue said to Huarui with a solemn expression, "From now on, Huanxue is your master, Xie Fengyue, do you understand?"

Seeing Huarui nodded solemnly, Xie Fengyue followed the willow tree and hid in the rockery nearby.

Through the cracks in the stone, Xie Fengyue saw that several people were getting closer and closer, and her heart was beating faster and faster. This young master An really didn't act according to common sense. How could any stepson come to see the idea of ​​a nominal stepmother in advance? ah.

"Is this Miss Xie Jiayue?"

Huanxue turned her back to several people and did not turn around when she heard the question.

Huarui next to her turned her head and bowed first, "Miss Yue is my mistress. She dares to ask who the husband is and breaks into my girl's yard without anyone reporting her."

Young Master An was wearing a dark python robe today, which was very different from the clothes worn by the aristocratic Young Master Hao Fengliu, but it made his face look particularly heroic.

He put his hands on his chest and saluted, "My five sons, King Wu, Wu Qi'an has seen Moon Girl."

After hearing his name, Huanxue slowly turned around, lowered her head and bowed softly, "I have met Mr. Lang. I wonder why Mr. Lang is here."

She did not raise her head. Young Master An couldn't see her face clearly for a while. He was not in a hurry. Instead, he said loudly, "I heard from the servants in the mansion that the scenery of Rufeng Courtyard is quite beautiful, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect it to be so abrupt." Moon Girl, something is missing."

Huanxue then raised his head and looked at her, "If anything, Lang Jun is a distinguished guest of the Xie Mansion, how could he act so abruptly?"

Huanxue's scalp was numb because of his distant eyes. This person was not like the description in the secret letter. Where was the handsome young man who was promised to be the same as the husband? Why are you staring at the girl's face like an ignorant rogue in the market?

He laughed softly and bowed again, "Then I won't disturb Miss Yue from enjoying her time in the garden. I'll take my leave first."

He left just as quickly as he came, leaving Huan Xue and Hua Rui looking at each other. It wasn't until Gongzi An walked into the peach forest that he said sarcastically, "This painter from the Xie family is really good at painting. He paints even one or two points of beauty as if he has banished an immortal to the world. It's extremely ridiculous."

The person next to him replied, "Is there a big difference?"

Young Master An took out a palm-sized portrait from his arms and threw it to him, "See for yourself."

The small picture scroll was unfolded, and the person in the picture had water-like eyebrows, cherry lips and a beautiful nose, especially those captivating eyes that seemed to suck him into the painting. He thought of the appearance of Moon Girl just now, how beautiful it was, but That is to say, the appearance of ordinary beauties cannot be compared with the one in the painting. If there is any similarity, it is just that the eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar.

His expression was hard to explain, but he finally squeezed out a few words: "This painter is a talent."

Xie Fengyue here stayed in the cave until the group of them disappeared into the peach forest before coming out.

Huarui still had a puzzled look on her face. Seeing that the girl didn't want to explain, she still chose to swallow her doubts.

Xie Fengyue's good mood was completely ruined by the young master who came in a hurry and then left suddenly. She let out a soft breath and said, "Go back."

On February 11th, the sudden heavy rain the night before brought back the charcoal basin that had been removed. The flower stamens were adding charcoal to the side, while sighing, "The red lanterns and red silks that were just hung in the house were all destroyed. I don't know." How can the commander know the future? Isn’t this deliberately trying to ruin the girl’s wedding?”

Xie Fengyue stepped on the fox fur carpet with bare feet and said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter if it rains. There is no need to go through some empty formalities."

She was sincerely happy, and she could have another free day today.

But when I think about the inevitable tomorrow, my heart sinks again.

The daughter of the Xie family is getting married or is marrying far away. Tomorrow everyone in the clan will come to the Xie Mansion, and they will need to exchange cups for fake socializing. She is a side branch of the Xie family, and she is familiar with the relatives on the main branch. There are only a few, not to mention the girls from aristocratic families who will come to add makeup tomorrow and might cause some trouble.

She had a headache just thinking about this, and she could only helplessly pinch her eyebrows and call out, "Huarui, open the window for some air."

When it was Shen time, the rain stopped a little, and the girls started to deliver things one after another.

They range from silk belts to be used on the wedding day to jade wedding attire. They are filled to the brim and fill the entire front room.

Xie Fengyue knew the leading girl. She was the most popular girl in Mrs. Xie’s courtyard. She had a dark face and asked the girls behind her to carry in a box. The bride has to do the finishing of the collar herself, which makes the girl more tired."

After saying that, a few people opened the box and worked together to hold up the heavy wedding dress.

The eldest girl pointed to the stitches on her neck, "This is Wan-style embroidery. Madam said that the girl will definitely be able to show off her extravagance and wisdom, so she didn't ask the embroiderer to teach her. I hope she will take it seriously. This is her wedding."

Xie Fengyue looked at the wedding clothes in a funny way. Anhui-style embroidery skills have been lost for a long time. The popular embroidery methods nowadays are Su embroidery from Jiangnan. Could it be that Mrs. Xie thinks that she attaches great importance to this big wedding and can use this to her advantage? Is the thing causing trouble with her?
  When the eldest girl saw her laughing, her face became even more unhappy. The Aunt Qin she sent back yesterday was her cousin. Although she begged for mercy, the madam did not give her an excessive punishment, but she was thrown into burning the boiler. .

"It seems that the girl knows how to embroider in Anhui." She pointed at the red hijab in the box and said sarcastically, "Madam felt pity that the girl would marry far away and show off too much, which would make the King of Wu unhappy, so she asked the embroiderer to also prepare this kind of embroidery. Hijab.”

Xie Fengyue's face was expressionless but she was secretly happy. This red hijab was something common people would only use when getting married. Mrs. Xie's original intention was to use it to humiliate her, but she didn't expect that it would help her.

　The original sentence comes from Liu Yuxi's "Wu Yi Xiang" In the old days, the king Xietang Qianyan flew into the homes of ordinary people.

　　I misinterpreted it in the article.

　　The general meaning is that even the swallows of the Wang and Xie families will not nest in ordinary people's homes.
