Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 215 The Same Difficulty
The literary fair in the front yard of Xu Mansion was much more lively than the flower fair in the back yard. Ye Shusheng found the fourth prince, and when he had a chance to talk, he said with a smile: "It seems that the fifth master will not come." The fourth prince was startled when he heard this: "Old man Wu said he was coming? He asked me yesterday, didn’t he say he couldn’t come?”

"The concubine of Jin'an County is here. I thought the fifth master had to come with me. I didn't expect that the fifth master didn't come. Only the concubine of Jin'an county came alone." Ye Shusheng explained with a smile, and the fourth prince said 'oh'. After continuing the conversation, Ye Shusheng also hurriedly interrupted the conversation, lighting Jiang Hong and Xu Sihai who were not far away with a folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "Just now a woman was sent from the inner courtyard, saying that the young lady in the inner courtyard is also going to compete in poetry today. Please ask Jiang Yanhui and Xu Jingzhi to comment, saying that it was Xu Xueshi who was supposed to comment, and I was afraid that Xu Xueshi would be tired, so I let the disciples do the work."

"The marriage between the two of them hasn't been settled yet?" The fourth prince asked very clearly, and Ye Shusheng smiled understandingly: "No, Jingzhi is fine, and I went to see each other a few times, but he refused to let go of the hairpin. I didn't even go to see him once, and I don't know what the idea is." The fourth prince subconsciously remembered what Ye Twelve Niang said, glanced at Jiang Hong and asked: "Jiang Yan answered?"

"Can you not agree?" Ye Shusheng also took a look at Jiang Hong: "Yanhui and Jingzhi didn't refuse, and they agreed at once. They are all boudoir poems, and it is easy to comment."

"So many old masters who have already become famous here don't invite them, but invite them two young men who are not engaged to comment on poems. Both of them are smart people with seven apertures, and they can't see through the mystery in the middle? Why do they just agree? Already?" The fourth prince seemed a little dissatisfied, Ye Shusheng said with a smile: "Today, there are a lot of young ladies coming from the backyard, maybe there is a fate between the two of them, and the peaches and plums are thrown over there, so I have to take a look, maybe there are some If you like it, this is what it should be." The fourth prince snorted coldly and didn't speak again.

In the big flower hall in the inner courtyard, the sixth lady, Xu Jie, stood next to her mother, Mrs. Huang, and looked at the young ladies from each family who came today one by one, with vigilance in her eyes.Princess Jiangjun admired the peonies inside and outside the flower hall. She was boasting with Mrs. Huang, Mrs. Cui and others that the peonies in Xu Mansion were getting better and better. The health of the official family is not good, and the flower fairs of each family did not dare to be too extravagant and lively. There are not many highlights in the flower fairs of each family this year.

Mrs. Cui saw that Xu Jie was next to Mrs. Huang, but she just looked at the ladies from various families who were admiring the flowers inside and outside the flower hall. She couldn't help but said to Mrs. Huang: "What's the point of Mrs. Six listening to us old women? She went to play with their little sisters."

"No, I haven't noticed yet, the sixth lady won't accompany us old women, go out and play." Princess Jiangjun also smiled heartily, Madam Huang pushed Xu Jie lovingly and said: "Go, Yaoyao is here today , if you are afraid of noise, go talk to Yaoyao, and your Jiang family sister, have fun." Xu Jie had no choice but to agree to come out, because of Lin Ke's words, all the young ladies in the garden, except Jiang Shan, she saw No one is pleasing to the eye, but Jiang Shan and Lin Ke are inseparable from Yu Yaofang and Li Tian. Xu Jie wandered around for a while and ordered the little girl to invite the third sister-in-law over. I can talk to my sister-in-law.

Under a vine flower not far from the big flower hall, Li Tian and others were sitting. On an open space in front of the vine flower, Ye Shierniang, Wu Jiuniang and others were yelling and screaming.

Yu Yaofang has lost a whole circle of weight, her expression is very quiet, and she seems a little restless at the moment, looking at the path leading to the outer courtyard from time to time, Li Tian patted her hand lightly, signaling her not to worry, Yu Yaofang Smiled, turned to look at Jiang Shan and gossiped, "Why didn't Mrs. Leng come?"

"Her aunt is sick, and she is at home to take care of the sick." Jiang Shan sighed, turned her head to look at the big flower hall, and said in a low voice: "Her aunt is really, like Brother Nine, my aunt did not fall ill. "Yu Yaofang and Li Tian glanced at Lin Ke at the same time, and then at each other. Li Tian smiled and said, "Is it because of Leng Dalang's marriage?"

"No, Ah Nuan said that her elder brother didn't know which tendon was stuck. After talking about so many people, he just refused. Ah Nuan said that her elder brother had never done this before. Before Zhongju, her mother She also mentioned several relatives, every time her elder brother said that she only followed the wishes of her parents, and she never felt awkward once, ever since she was selected as a candidate, and was awarded an official position, she kept getting awkward, saying that no one would agree, oh Really, it is said that each family has its own difficulties, but Sanding Jia’s family has difficulties in one place! What is this called?” Jiang Shan thought of her brother from the cold and warm, and couldn’t help but sighed repeatedly. Lin Ke She listened obediently with her ears open, but turned her head, pretending not to care at all. Li Tian couldn't take it anymore. Turning her gaze to the flowers outside, Yu Yaofang smiled and said, "Didn't everyone say that fate is destined? The three tripods of Ke are all young talents, and it is human nature to be high-spirited."

"That's right, I'm also persuading A Niang in the same way." Jiang Shan had come to her senses, and hurriedly changed her words: "People like my ninth brother have been awkward since they were young, and they even pay attention to the paper, ink, and so on. It’s too much, and I won’t use it if I’m not satisfied, let alone such a big event as getting a wife. I told my mother that Brother Nine would have to spend an hour or two picking a pen, and the wife is much bigger than the pen. There are too many, no matter what, I have to choose three or two years."

Lin Ke giggled, "Cousin is just too particular. A big man is more particular than women. Ah Tian, ​​is your Wulang also so particular? He is so good-looking, he must be more particular than cousin." Li Tian looked at Lin Ke speechlessly. Before she could answer, Ye Shiriniang jumped in and shouted, "Who is so good-looking? Who are you talking about?" Lin Ke always speaks half a beat faster than others, before everyone can speak , Talking and laughing: "Of course, the fifth master is good-looking. I told them just now that my cousin is the most picky, even more particular about women!"

"Yeah!" Ye Twelve Niang's head almost touched her chest, and she agreed very much: "Of course, Fifth Master is the prettiest, Tian Tian, ​​why didn't Fifth Master come today? Let me tell you, my mother-in-law, Just don't let me go to your house to see you and fifth master, and don't let me go once, saying that I'm crazy, and if I go, I'll make things difficult for you. Tell me, when will I make you feel bad? Sigh, I haven't seen Fifth Master for a long time. My grandma keeps holding me every day, telling me that I'm getting married soon, and I need to cultivate my moral character. I'm getting annoyed by all the talk of women, and I can't talk to my grandma. Losing your temper makes you lose your temper, alas, I want to get married now."

Everyone knew Ye Twelve Niang's temper, Lin Ke said with a smile: "What's so good about being married? You have to serve this one and that one. When you get married, your mother-in-law won't be able to control you anymore, but your mother-in-law is definitely more important than your mother-in-law." It's still tight!"

"Bah, bah, bah! Childish words!" Ye Twelve Niang hurriedly said "Bah" non-stop: "Ake, if you curse me again, I will be in a hurry with you!" Jiang Shan stood up and pulled Ye Twelve Niang to sit down and laughed. : "Don't pay attention to her, your mother-in-law loves you so much, how can you be appointed? Your mother-in-law will definitely tell you how close she is."

"I think so too." Ye Shiriniang sat next to Lin Ke, looked at everyone and said with a smile, "I like talking to you guys the most, if it's over there." Ye Shirniang pointed her fingers away. A few groups of young ladies and young daughters-in-law more than ten steps away said: "Whenever we mention a dowry word, they all pretend to be so ashamed, I don't believe they don't think about it, hum!" Xu is where Ye Twelve Niang is? One sentence was inappropriate and was dismissed by others, and now he was not very angry.

Yu Yaofang was listening to her absent-mindedly, while looking at the path from time to time, a woman turned out from the depths of the path and came straight to Yu Yaofang. The master is free at the moment, please ask Mrs. Yu to go over and talk.Yu Yaofang shook Li Tian's hand, stood up hastily and walked out.Ye Twelve Niang asked strangely: "Who invited Yaoyao over to talk? Which master? Master Yu is here?"

"It's Yaoyao's uncle!" Lin Ke gave Ye Twelve Niang a disgusted look, and Ye Twelve Niang suddenly said, "I almost forgot, huh? Why didn't Yaoyao tell her aunt what happened?"

"Uncle is dear, but aunt is not!" Lin Ke said bluntly, Li Tian almost choked: "A Ke, what nonsense!" Picking something up, her face turned red all of a sudden, she stuck out her tongue and said to Ye Twelve Niang: "I'm talking nonsense, just pretend you didn't hear it."

"I know, I understand. My grandma said it. It's called knowing that you can't say it. You shouldn't say it so clearly." Ye Shiriniang said that I am very smart. Jiang Shan suppressed a smile and turned her head. Li Tian was speechless. Looking at the two of them, he hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Today's poetry competition, you two can't refuse to hand in a poem, can you?"

"What's the matter if you don't pay? I don't want to be a talented girl!" Lin Ke looked indifferent, and Ye Shiriniang gave her a thumbs up: "Well said! I hate talented girls the most, and they will put on airs!" Li Tian and Jiang Shan looked at the two of them, really speechless.

In a corner of the garden, Li Yunshang walked slowly with Xu Jie, talking in a low voice.

"...I heard that it was because Jiulang refused to agree, and the Jiang family refused to force them to delay until now. Don't take what Mrs. Lin said to you." Li Yunshang persuaded again, but Xu Jie was full of things on his mind, but he didn't care about it. He didn't listen to Li Yunshang's words, but bit his lips and said suddenly: "Sister-in-law San, I want to see Brother Nine!" Li Yunshang was startled, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "How can this be done? Men and women are different!"

"Why not?" Xu Jie seemed to have made up her mind: "It's not that I haven't seen him before. Didn't I often send them snacks in the past? What's the difference between men and women? Brother Ninth is Father's student. What's the difference between brothers? So what if I see you?"
