Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 69
Yue Niang conveniently pulled Li Tian behind her, held the broken spokes, squinted at the black riders who rushed in front of them in a blink of an eye, dozens of black riders were about ten steps away from Li Tian's vehicle, and they reined in. Stopped, the fourth prince, Qin Kun, jumped out of the horse, rushed to the side of the car, quickly turned over and got off the horse, first looked at the wheel that was about to fall, then turned around and looked at Li Tian, ​​cupped his hands and said, "Fifth lady, this car has to be moved." You can only set off after repairing it, and sit on the side of the road and wait a while, and I will have someone repair the car for you."

Li Tian lowered his eyes and bowed his knees to thank him: "I don't dare to do it. The fourth master has a lot of work. How can I delay the fourth master for such a trivial matter. I, the driver, can repair this wheel."

"This is not a delay." The Fourth Prince spoke very gently, "Since I have met you, how can I ignore you? Let's sit under the curtain and wait, and it will be repaired in a while."

In just one or two sentences, seven or eight long followers had already set up the curtain on the side of the road, and took two beard chairs from the horseback and put them away. Tim.Li Tian hesitated, glanced at Yue Niang, with her head half down, followed the fourth prince into the curtain, Yue Niang threw away the spokes in her hand, clapped her hands, followed Li Tian into the curtain, and stood with her hands behind her back. is behind.

The fourth prince politely asked Li Tian to sit down. Li Tian was flustered, with his head half down, carefully picked the bearded chair on the right and sat down. Remove the wheel that was pushed to the curb.If my coachman and Yue Niang repaired it, it only takes half a cup of tea, this cart can at least last back to Yongguo Duke's Mansion, now the fourth prince's people are going to repair it, who knows when it will be repaired?The broken spokes of the car were neatly arranged like that, Yue Niang must have wanted to tell herself about it just now... The fourth prince turned to Li Tian sideways, and looked at her carefully from top to bottom. A very beautiful bun, with only a red gold hundred-flower hairpin inserted, the dots of ditang hanging from the head of this hundred-flower hairpin are exquisite and agile, really like a hairpin.She was so beautiful, just like what was written in the book, her skin was creamy, her eyes were like autumn water, and her fingers were like... The fourth prince stared blankly at the hands holding the veils and pearls that were constantly kneading. Like jade carvings, soft and slender, white and almost transparent, the nails were not dyed with cardamom, very neatly trimmed, the nails were pink like lotus petals, the four corners of the handkerchief were decorated with lotus seed-sized pearls, and the pearls were covered by her one by one. After being squeezed between the fingers, the pearl is not as soft and beautiful as her hands.

The fourth prince looked engrossed, and subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch and shake those hands. Yue Niang coughed heavily, and Li Tian turned to look at the fourth prince. In mid-air, he drew halfway, pointed to the weeping willow outside the curtain and said: "This weeping willow is graceful and graceful, and it has a somewhat...beautiful appearance."

Li Tian turned his head to look at the weeping willows outside the curtain, and said with a slight smile, "Because of this image, literati like to use the quality of willows to describe women, but it's a pity that the quality of willows is only found on the side of the road. They are elegant and beautiful, but they cannot be in the home of Yutang and Jinma, and Puliu and Jinma are not suitable for Yutang."

"Fifth Lady is really kind and heart-warming." The fourth prince looked at those hands and the pearls rubbed between his fingers absent-mindedly, and couldn't help but praise: "Fifth Lady's handkerchief is really unique, and these few pearls are embellished just right. " Li Tian's fingers stiffened, didn't he hear her words?What are you doing staring at her veil?This veil is one of her little problems. Whenever she is nervous or distracted by something, she likes to knead the corners of the veil on her clothes. Grandma asks people to embroider pearls and jasper on the four corners of the veil. Beads wait for her to knead.Li Tian rolled up his handkerchief and retracted his hands into his sleeves, as if he was concentrating on watching the coachman and a few attendants repairing the car, and didn't hear what the fourth prince said.

The fourth prince was very annoyed, and looked down from the sleeves. She was sitting dignifiedly, with only a pointy toe exposed under her skirt. How could the same satin embroidered shoes be so soft and delicate on her feet?The fourth prince's gaze stayed on the toe of the shoe for a while, then slowly moved up again, staring at Li Tian's side face to see his spirit.

Li Tian felt uncomfortable being watched by him, as if he was on fire, he was extremely ashamed but didn't dare to attack, what is this?These princes are all self-respecting, and they stare at people so presumptuously in such broad daylight and in public!An angry blush spread quickly along Li Tian's neck. Seeing her blushing, the fourth prince was startled, and smiled with bright eyes: "It's hot, take this folding fan." Said Then, he handed the folding fan in his hand to Li Tian.

"I don't dare to do it. The curtain is a bit stuffy. Si Ye, please sit down. I'll go outside to get some air." While talking, she stood up, before the fourth prince could answer, she turned to look at Yue Niang and said, "Let's go and see." Let's see if the car has been repaired, and I told my aunt that I'm about to get home, and if I don't go back, my aunt will send someone to look for it later." Yue Niang glanced at the fourth prince who had stood up right behind her, and stood in front of Li Behind Tian.

There is no Yue Niang in the eyes of the fourth prince, so he passed her and walked side by side with Li Tian in a few steps. After three or five steps out of the curtain, he reached out to stop Li Tian and said, "Just take a look here, don't get too close, and be careful not to be caught. They collided." Li Tian had to stop, and the fourth prince continued: "I will send someone to Duke Yong's mansion to speak for you, so that Duke Yong and his wife won't worry."

"No need!" Li Tian refused bluntly: "Fourth master sent someone to say this for me, what is it? Our Li family has strict rules, so lonely men and widows are alone in the wild, and if the family knows, I will die. Take it in!"

"Oh." The fourth prince was robbed by Li Tian, ​​and raised his brows unexpectedly. Before the brows fell, a smile overflowed his face from his eyes. His smiling eyes stayed close to Li Tian, ​​and he leaned closer to Li Tian slightly. As if uncertain, he said in a slow voice: "I only heard that the Yang family in southern Sichuan has very strict rules. Isn't your Li family's family rules known for being loose and casual? Besides, we are not alone. The widow is alone in the wild."

"You?" Li Tian was ashamed and annoyed by what he said. Seeing that Li Tian was really going to be annoyed, the fourth prince, with a smile all over his eyes and face, hurriedly laughed with Si Xiaoyi: "It used to be broad, It may have changed now, but I didn't notice."

"Don't dare to do it. It seems that this car needs to be repaired for a while. I won't wait any longer. Let Yue Niang take me back on horseback first." Li Tian was startled by his little thought, and didn't dare to delay for a moment, Yue Niang Responding to the sound, the fourth prince hastily stretched out his hand to stop Li Tian and said, "Riding a horse into the city is ostentatious, the Li family is not a rule..." Seeing Li Tian's brows stand erect, the fourth prince hurriedly swallowed the word 'heavy' again, Turned around and said: "It will be fixed in a while, just in a while."

Yue Niang had already walked four or five steps, stopped and turned around, looked at Li Tian and waited for orders, but the fourth prince waved at her and said: "Go and hurry them up." Li Tian took advantage of him to tell Yue Niang , dodged to the side, held up her skirt, took three quick steps in parallel, ran towards Yue Niang and said, "Let's go and have a look together."

The fourth prince was stunned, so he had no choice but to follow behind. Qingzhi rushed over from the side of the car, and very cleverly handed over a curtain hat to Li Tian. Li Tian quickly took it and put it on. Li Tian heaved a long sigh of relief on the soles of his feet, he felt much more comfortable after the layer of veil.The fourth prince was next to Li Tian, ​​looking down at her in a daze, wondering what she was thinking.

With Yue Niang at the side directing, the car was repaired very fast, it didn't take long, and it was roughly repaired and ready to use, Li Tian thanked the fourth prince meticulously, helped Qing Zhi to get on the car, before Li Tian could sit still , Yue Niang jumped to the front horizontal board and sat down, urging the coachman to leave quickly.The fourth prince subconsciously followed the car and walked a few steps, waved someone to lead the horse over, rode on the horse and tied it to the back of the car, not far or near, and followed until passing the Qingfeng Building, watching Li Tian's car turn into the car. Only then did he rein in the horse at the side door of Yongguo Duke's mansion, and went around a few times to go back to the household department to do errands.

Li Tian got out of the car at the second gate, looked at Yue Niang in shock, and said, "Have you left? Didn't you come with me?"

"Following stopped at the entrance of Qingfeng Tower, how could he still follow into the mansion? Why did he follow? Propose marriage?" Yue Niang brushed off the lapel of her clothes and said, Li Tian did not answer with a sullen face, and hurried all the way back to Qingtong Courtyard. Walking around in a hurry in the room, only her skirt fluttered, Yingluo looked at Li Tian in astonishment, Qing Zhi hurriedly approached her, and told about the car accident on the road and met the fourth prince, Yingluo's eyes widened when she heard it, Looking at Qing Zhi and then at Li Tian, ​​he couldn't say a word.

Yue Niang spread her arms and legs and sat on the armchair, looked at Li Tian and said, "Don't turn around, what's the use of turning around? What's the big deal, even if he comes to propose marriage, you just don't want to marry or agree, what can he do to you? You can't force it."

"It's easy for you to say, that's the prince! Could it be that if you don't agree, you won't agree?" Qingzhi looked at Yueniang stomping her feet and said anxiously. Yingluo hurriedly made a cup of tea and handed it to Li Tian to persuade: "Fifth lady, don't give up." Urgent, don't you always say that the bigger the problem, the more calm you need to be, drink a cup of tea first, there must be a way."

"Alas!" Li Tian sighed, took the tea and drank it in one gulp, wrung his hands and walked back and forth a few times, looked at Qingzhi and ordered: "Go ask Mr. Shui to come and talk." Qingzhi agreed, and hurried out, After a while, Shui Qiuniang followed Qing Zhi into the upper room.

Li Tian got up to greet Shui Qiuniang. Shui Qiuniang is in her 40s, with a normal face, but she has a graceful figure and a very good demeanor. Her behavior and speech are extremely gentle but not easy to get close to. Five or six years ago, she left the palace for unknown reasons, and was invited by Li Tian's grandmother to teach Li Tian the piano art. Her daily life is extremely delicate, she lives alone in a courtyard and rarely goes out, and she never mentions anything about the past.

Yingluo took out the Yuguo Tianjing Jun kiln tea set, washed her hands carefully, ironed the tea set, ordered a cup of tea intently, and served it to Shui Qiuniang, who took it, held it to her lips, and gently shook the cup, She lowered her eyes, smelled it, smiled and said, "Yingluo's skill in ordering tea is still the same as before."

"Fifth lady doesn't like tea soup. I haven't ordered tea for a long time, and I'm unfamiliar with it." Yingluo heard that Shui Qiuniang said that her tea-making skills had not improved, so she quickly explained with a smile, and Shui Qiuniang sipped it with a smile After taking a sip of tea, he turned to look at Li Tian, ​​waiting for her to speak.
