Chapter 88
Taking advantage of Liuniang's greeting, Xiao Yuzhuo was about to run away while holding the maid's hand.
But Li Tai turned his face, his eyes fell on her, "Miss Xiao, are you leaving now?"
Xiao Yuzhuo stood still, turned around reluctantly, "Thank you, King Yue, I have to go to pay my respects to Auntie, so I won't delay the work of King Yue."
"No delay." Li Tai said with a half-smile, "Long time no see, how is Miss Xiao?"
Do you care what happened to him?
If he told his father to know, she would have a hard time living again!
Seeing that she was silent, Li Tai raised his foot to approach her, his gaze kept on her face, "I heard that General Qian moved to another courtyard in the suburbs of the city to protect Lady Xiao and the child in her womb?"
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted softly, backed away calmly, and opened the distance between the two, "Yes, didn't the King of Yue already know about it? Why bother to ask?"
Li Tai lowered his eyes, and his smile gradually subsided, "I heard that General Jing has now moved back to the General's Mansion. It's because the lady doesn't want to reconcile with the General. Has the General given up?"
Ok?
Xiao Yuzhuo raised his eyebrows slightly, he moved back?What happened to the sound of the piano heard every afternoon?
"No... don't care about your business!" Xiao Yuzhuo said immediately.
Li Tai hooked the corners of his lips, and bent slightly to look at her, "You are the general's wife, so it's really none of my business. But if you don't care about each other, then..."
"That's none of your business!" Xiao Yuzhuo said immediately.
"Is His Highness the King of Yue coming to see my grandfather? Grandfather is in the Weirui Courtyard, shall I guide His Highness the King of Yue?" Xiao Sixiniang said suddenly.
Taking advantage of Li Tai's turning back.
Xiao Yuzhuo supported Zhuxiang's hand, and walked away.
She is very fast now, she doesn't look like a pregnant woman at all, she walks like flying and moves like a rabbit.
Not paying attention, Zhuxiang pulled her but didn't grab her. At the bend of the path, she bumped into someone's arms.
Fortunately, Zhuxiang protected her stomach, and the man was knocked back two steps by her.
"Auntie, be careful!" Xiao Yuzhuo stood firm and stretched out his hand to support her.
She quickly grabbed her maid to stand still, "Yuyu is pregnant, why is she walking in such a hurry?"
As soon as the eldest lady finished speaking, she saw Xiao Sixiniang and Yue Wang Li Tai standing on the rockery.
The King of Yue stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fell to this side coldly and indifferently.
Xiao Shiliuniang's cheeks were flushed, shy and timid, her hands were clasped together, squirming.
If it wasn't for the disheveled clothes and loose hair, the brand-new bright red cloak rolled a lot of dust, she would appear to be in a panic.
This shy look is quite interesting.
The eldest lady's expression turned ugly immediately.
Xiao Yuzhuo ran away in such a rush again, she immediately thought that Xiao Yuzhuo had bumped into her daughter's appearance and felt embarrassed, so she hurriedly avoided.
Immediately, Xiao Yuzhuo felt considerate and courteous.
It was her own daughter who really humiliated her in front of King Yue and Xiao Yuzhuo.
"Liu Niang!" the eldest lady snapped.
Xiao Shiliuniang couldn't help being startled when she saw the eldest lady.
She looked at King Yue reluctantly again, and then hurriedly walked towards the eldest lady.
"Look at what you look like? Why don't you go back to your own yard and change?" The eldest lady lowered her voice and scolded.
Xiao Shiliuniang wanted to look back, but was glared at by the lady.
Xiao Shiliuniang stood aside reluctantly, pouting.
The eldest lady Fushen said to the King of Yue: "Please also ask the prince to move, this place is considered half of the inner courtyard..."
Li Tai snorted, "I heard that the quarrels were fierce, so I was curious. I didn't expect that between sisters, quarrels would develop into fights... It's really wonderful."
Li Tai smiled.
The eldest lady's expression changed, and she looked back.
"Are you still leaving?" Xiao Sixiniang urged Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo walked away.
But she suddenly raised her foot and stepped on Xiao Yuzhuo's skirt.
Unprepared, Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly staggered and threw himself on the ground.
This scene just fell into the eyes of the eldest lady who looked back.
Xiao Yuzhuo exclaimed.
Fortunately, Zhuxiang was by her side, so she reacted very quickly and reached out to hug her.
Xiao Yuzhuo stood firm and patted his heart, as if a little frightened.
The eldest lady has already turned pale with fright.
She is pregnant now, if she just lays down like this, her stomach hits the ground first, the consequences...
Xiao Shiliuniang's face was gloomy, she didn't feel guilty or repentant, on the contrary, she seemed a little regretful and unwilling.
Da Furen raised her hand and wanted to slap Sixteen Niang so that she could wake up.
But after all, she is his own daughter, after all, she can't bear to call her so shameless.
She hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiao Yuzhuo's other hand, "Yuyu, be careful, she is inconvenient now, she should be more cautious when walking, don't panic, she bumped into me just now..."
Mei Xiang stared, "How could it be the same! Someone stepped on my wife's skirt just now!"
Mei Xiang pointed at Xiao Yuzhuo's skirt, stared and shouted sharply.
On the edge of the primrose-colored group, a footprint is very obvious.
The eldest lady quickly looked at the servant girl, "You also have to be careful, walk behind the lady, and pay attention to your feet!"
She didn't look at Xiao Shiliuniang.
"What Da Furen said... We waiters don't even understand this thing? These footprints are clearly stepped on on purpose! Who dares to harm the master?" Mei Xiang said with red eyes.
Xiao Yuzhuo just lowered his eyes, didn't say a word, didn't stop Mei Xiang, and nodded secretly to Mei Xiang.
Mei Xiang got the approval, and immediately felt even more aggrieved, sniffing and crying: "My wife is celebrating Chinese New Year, and she wanted to visit her natal home, but the eldest princess didn't go there. The eldest daughter-in-law of Xiao's family respects you more than her own mother... I never thought that I have been wronged by you, but I don't even have a place to reason..."
The more Mei Xiang talked, the more sad she became, and she actually burst into tears.
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his head, didn't say a word, and stroked his stomach with both hands, looking frightened.
The eldest lady only felt a headache.
If she is like this, if the eldest princess knows, the Xiao family will not have to have a safe birthday this year.
Who doesn't know that she is the eyeball of the eldest princess... I will have trouble with her everywhere when I was born 16 years ago!Is it a coincidence or what?
The eldest lady turned her head sharply, and saw King Yue was looking at this side with great interest, with a smile on his lips.
She felt that one head and two were bigger.
"Okay, don't cry, I know Yuyu, you have been wronged. Don't worry, my aunt is in charge of you! There are always some ignorant people in this yard, and because of their young age, it's not worth it to do things. Daddy and mother bothering her?"
"Whoever is young, mother, I..."
"Shut up!" The eldest lady gave Xiao Sixiniang a hard look.
Frightened by her stern look, Xiao Shiliuniang shut up and dared not speak any more.
The eldest lady took a step forward, held Xiao Yuzhuo's hand, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you open a cabinet? Your mother will definitely not agree... But my aunt supports you! My aunt still has some dowry for her..."
Only then did Xiao Yuzhuo raise his head, and glanced at the eldest lady lightly, "Auntie, I was quite frightened just now, and my heart is still thumping... don't worry about pregnant women, I have to take good care of it, I can’t worry about it for a few days. Since you support me, if you don’t want to deposit those that you don’t need for a while, you can also deposit them in the cabinet. Not only is it guaranteed, but you can also get more interest! You just sit and wait to collect Money! In this way, I don't worry, and you can get the benefits, right?"
The eldest lady's eyebrows were tangled, "I am not in charge of Zhongfu, I have your grandmother on top of me, this matter..."
"Grandmother has already handed all these into your hands. Why are you being modest in front of your niece? Could it be that you are afraid that I will swallow the money from the Xiao family and not return it to you? You can put a hundred Xin, why don't you deposit for three months first? At that time, I will send you the principal and interest together! I can't lose you!" Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly.
The eldest lady is still hesitating, "I can't decide on such a big matter by myself..."
"Oh... I was so scared just now, what's in my heart... Turning around, when Auntie and the general asked, I had to say exactly, I saw it, beside the rockery, Sixteen Niang and..."
"Okay, okay!" Da Furen repeatedly agreed, "You come to my courtyard later, I will keep it for three months first! It's just Yuyu..."
She took a step forward, raised her hand to hold Xiao Yuzhuo's, "Your sister's reputation is a big deal, you can't be careless about it!"
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, and patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry, Auntie, I didn't see anything, I just went to pay my respects to Auntie!"
The eldest lady nodded, "I know, you are a sensible child, and you know the importance best."
The two spoke in a low voice.
Sixteen Niang seemed to understand but half understood, and the sight of the King of Yue on this side also made her feel distracted.
"Aniang, what did you promise her?" Sixteen Niang asked with a pout.
The eldest lady glared at her, if it wasn't for this good daughter who would cause trouble for her, how could she be so passive?
Originally, he thought that if he took out the ten puns and a hundred guans, it could be regarded as saving Xiao Yuzhuo's favor and selling them well, so he didn't care about whether he could get them back or not.
This is great!
Xiao Yuzhuo supported the servant girl's hand, strolled in the courtyard, and walked away leisurely.
On her rosy, rosy cheeks, where can she see a half-frightened look?
Xiao Yuzhuo greeted the eldest princess and happily went to the Da Furen's courtyard.
The eldest lady still wanted to prevaricate her, so she directly prepared a carriage and waited outside the yard of the warehouse.
"Auntie, don't bother, I have all the chariots and horses ready, as long as you have the right cards, go there yourself!" Xiao Yuzhuo smiled like a little fox.
The eldest lady was speechless, and followed her to the warehouse.
Xiao Yuzhuo carried away several large boxes of copper coins from the warehouse.
The cloth was folded into cash, but she was afraid that her aunt would not let it go, so she didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, the aunt took the initiative to say, "Can this object be exchanged for silver?"
Xiao Yuzhuo was happy, "Of course it's fine, as long as we negotiate the price with each other."
The eldest lady smiled slightly, and became happy, "Some fabrics were made a few years ago, and they are not fashionable now. Let's make clothes for the servants, but they are of the best material. If they are worn by the servants, I'm afraid The people in a few rooms say that I don’t know how to live. But they don’t want to make clothes for them, and they can’t give them away...”
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, if something like this happened to the Xiao family, it would certainly happen to other aristocratic families.
"It's a waste to pile them up in the warehouse," said the lady.
"Why didn't Madam sell it in the east and west markets?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked intentionally.
The eldest lady waved her hand, "If I can't live on, I will sell my own things! How can I do this!"
It's really rich people's wine and meat stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road.
I would rather pile the cloth in the warehouse and get moldy than let the servants wear it, let alone take it out and sell it at a low price...
Xiao Yuzhuo clenched her fists. She was really doing a major event to promote the circulation of resources, improve the lives of the people, and benefit the country and the people!
"I asked my shopkeeper to estimate the price and show it to my uncle, and I will also sign a three-month contract for you." Xiao Yuzhuo said seriously.
The eldest lady pretended to be polite, "We are all a family, how can I not trust you?"
"Whether you believe it or not is one thing. Since money is involved, you should make it clear and clear, so you can rest assured, and I can rest assured!" Xiao Yuzhuo said.
The eldest lady also stopped being polite and nodded in agreement.
Xiao Yuzhuo asked someone to bring out the cloth that the lady had picked out, and at the same time asked someone to invite Mr. Liang over.
Liang Sheng has good eyesight, and he is very attentive in his work. He heard that cloth was also involved, and he even brought a friend from the cloth village to the door immediately.
The shopkeeper of the cloth village speaks clearly and logically, and is very knowledgeable.
At first, the eldest lady felt that the price he gave was too low.
But after his detailed analysis, he felt that she was taking advantage of Xiao Yuzhuo.
It is really a way out to rely on lip service.
The shopkeeper of this cloth shop is simply a three-inch tongue.
The eldest lady was convinced, and finally gave Xiao Yuzhuo a few bolts of cloth.
When Xiao Yuzhuo came back with a full load, Xiao Sixiniang was being punished by the eldest lady to copy books.
She was locked in the boudoir, while copying, she cried aggrievedly.
·
The land in the south of the city was still deserted, and Xiao Yuzhuo took advantage of the New Year's Eve to attract a lot of depositors, but most of them were fixed for three months.And it's all based on the favor of relatives.
For the land construction in the south of the city, it will take a long time for the funds to return.
She couldn't use this money to invest in the south of the city. She and Liang Sheng discussed investing the money in a part of Wufangzhai, opening branches in the east market and west market, and even several large workshops for chain operation.
The return of Wufangzhai's funds is faster.
When the time comes, she will be happy to pay interest. After their cabinet shop becomes famous, they will naturally not worry about no one depositing money in the cabinet shop.
At that time, they will have more security when they invest in the land in the south of the city.
Xiao Yuzhuo returned to the mansion after discussing with Wufangzhai. When he passed Jing Yannian's expanded courtyard, he happened to meet Jing Yannian coming out of the courtyard.
I don't know if it was a coincidence, or the so-called tacit understanding.
She just opened the curtains of the car, and he just happened to ride out on horseback, and he came face to face.
Looking at each other across the bullock cart.
As if time stopped at this moment, all she could see was the tall horse, and he was riding majestic on the horse's back.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't know why, but her face was inexplicably hot, and she quickly put down the curtains of the car.
His heart was beating uncontrollably.
It seemed that someone had spied on some secret, which made her inexplicably nervous.
"What's the matter, lady?" Mei Xiang looked at her slightly flustered look, especially puzzled.
As soon as the words fell, someone coughed lightly outside the car window.
"So Madam isn't at the house?" Jing Yannian's voice sounded very pleasant through the curtains of the car.
Xiao Yuzhuo's heart beat faster, she frowned, and suddenly stretched out her hand to lift the curtain of the car.
Jing Yannian's eyes fell on her slender and slender fingers, and he was absent-minded for a moment.
"Uh, I went to visit relatives at Xiao's house. I heard that General Jing moved back to the General's Mansion?" After Xiao Yuzhuo asked, he raised his eyes and looked at him with burning eyes.
Jing Yannian's gaze shifted from her fair fingers to her rosy cheeks, "Yes, because this place is on the outskirts of the city, there are many banquets in the New Year's Palace, so precautions must be taken, and it is very inconvenient to live here. "
Xiao Yuzhuo let out a groan, as if he was going to put down the curtains of the car.
Jing Yannian immediately spoke again, "But I can spare an hour every afternoon...you don't want me to... pester you, maybe it won't bother you too much across the yard?"
He has always been proud and domineering.
Today, he was able to say such words in front of the servant girls and servants, admitting that he was the one who "tangled" her.
Xiao Yuzhuo was so shocked that he could hardly believe his ears.
Seeing her dazed expression, Jing Yannian smiled slightly.
For a moment, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom...
Xiao Yuzhuo was stunned when he realized that he was useless.
"But don't worry, although I don't stay here at night, I have strengthened the defense of the other courtyard. The New Year is not stable, so you should bring more people with you when you go out. If you feel bored, ask your mother to come and talk to you." Jing Yan Nian's voice was flat.
He seldom said so many words so calmly.
And there are still some warm words.
Xiao Yuzhuo felt like she didn't know him anymore, she licked her lips, "Are... are you okay?"
Could it be that what she said that day has irritated him?
Jing Yannian looked up at the sky, and sighed slightly for a while, "It's snowing."
Ok?
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback for a moment, and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, there were tiny snowflakes falling from the sky, but the small ones under the snow didn't seem obvious when viewed from a close distance.
"It's cold and the road is slippery, so be careful." Jing Yannian looked down at her in the bullock cart.
Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly felt that there was a hand stove in his head, which was so hot that the warmth was unreal.
"You..." She looked up at Jing Yannian on the tall horse, he was too abnormal.
Jing Yannian suddenly got off his horse and walked two steps closer to the bullock cart.
As she got closer, she seemed to be able to see the pupils of his eyes clearly, and she could also see herself in his eyes.
He breathed in vain, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "You said equality and respect that day... I admit that I have never thought about it that way, and I don't know that you thought about it. What exactly is equality?" I don't quite understand what is called respect. I asked the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, and they told me that I was in a cloud. I'm presumptuous because of your feelings."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at him in shock.
If it was said that his caring words just now had flattered her, then his vaguely apologetic words at this moment made her even more unbelievable.
Is this really what Jing Yannian, the arrogant and conceited general, said?
"I will try to accept what you mean by equality, and try to learn what you mean by respect." Jing Yannian lowered his eyes and chuckled, then looked up at her suddenly.
His eyes were bright, as if sprinkled with diamonds, full of light flowing.
"The master who taught me Kung Fu once said that I am a good apprentice, and my husband also said that I am a studious student. I only hope that my wife will be more patient."
He bowed his hands to her with a pious and serious attitude.
Xiao Yuzhuo was so shocked that she could hardly regain her senses. She stretched out her hand ignorantly, and touched his forehead, "It's cold and easy to catch cold, don't you have a fever?"
Jing Yannian stood still and let her touch his forehead.
"Juxiang?" Xiao Yuzhuo murmured, "You give the general a pulse?"
Jing Yannian raised his hand to hold her hand, and took another step forward. His shoulders were already leaning on the bullock cart, "I won't force you, but I only hope that you will eventually return to the General's Mansion to give birth to a child."
Xiao Yuzhuo trembled slightly when he held the hand, "I, this me... There is nothing missing in the other courtyard, Auntie has sent two or three experienced midwives... I..."
Jing Yannian took a deep look at her, those dark and deep eyes made Xiao Yuzhuo's remaining words stuck in his throat.
"I'll be patient too." After he finished speaking, he pushed her hand back to the car window.
He glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo again, smiled slightly, and got on his horse.
"Ma'am, are you going?" Mei Xiang asked anxiously.
Only then did Xiao Yuzhuo put down the curtains of the car, "Let's go."
The ox cart passed by him slowly, and he didn't hit the horse until all the carts, horses and oxen had entered the yard.
Since Xiao Yuzhuo came home, he has been looking at the wintersweet flowers outside the window, silently in a daze.
Mei Xiang followed her gaze and looked out.
The snow is falling heavily now, pure white snow falls on the lustrous waxy yellow petals, and the curled branches are also stained with white snow.
Looking at it like this, it is indeed beautiful, but it is not possible for the lady to look at it for so long, right?
"Although the earth dragon was burned, it will be cold if the windows are opened for a long time?" Mei Xiang whispered.
Xiao Yuzhuo ignored her at all.
Ju Xiang pouted at her, "Close the window."
Mei Xiang stared, "How can I do that, the lady is watching the snow!"
Ju Xiang smiled at her, "Try closing it!"
Mei Xiang shook her head, "Why don't you turn it off?"
"Try it, try it!" Ju Xiang encouraged her.
Mei Xiang came to the window, looked back at Xiao Yuzhuo, and closed the window carefully.
But Xiao Yuzhuo still looked in the direction of the window, didn't move a muscle, didn't even blink his eyes, and didn't respond.
Mei Xiang stared at Ju Xiang with wide eyes, "Isn't the lady looking at the snow?"
Ju Xiang shook her head, "My lady didn't look at anything."
"Lady, what's the matter with you?" Mei Xiang was worried, stepped forward and knelt at Xiao Yuzhuo's feet, and gently pushed her knee.
Xiao Yuzhuo came back to his senses in astonishment, "He didn't even interrogate me why I went, who did I see? I came back late, and he wasn't angry, and he was still concerned about me with a smile on his face?"
Mei Xiang rolled her eyes, "You mean the general? The general looks different today than he usually does."
"What's different, it's too different." Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head again and again, "I haven't seen him for a long time, why does he look like a different person?"
Could it be the same as myself, time travel?
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded for a while, then shook his head again and again.
Mrs. Jing brought a small and exquisite bellyband, and she finally came back to her senses.
Xiao Yuzhuo patted his forehead suddenly, "Mrs. Jing, did you say anything to the general?"
Madam Jing looked up at her, "Have you met Nian'er?"
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded repeatedly.
Mrs. Jing smiled slightly, "He asked me, what is equality, what equality do women want?"
Xiao Yuzhuo's face became hot.
She was just out of breath that day, so she didn't choose what to say, she was talking to an ancient man!Or an ancient man talking about equality!
"I don't understand either. I just told him how I raised him all these years and faced many things alone." Mrs. Jing smiled again, her face was full of gentleness and kindness, "I don't want to My grandson will be born in an incomplete family."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked down at her stomach.
Jing Yannian said that he didn't want the child to have no father.Mrs. Jing said that she did not want her child to have a complete family.
But she, as the child's mother, has always hardened her heart and must pursue the independence she wants. Is she wrong?
"Okay, Nian'er doesn't ask me to talk too much, just say that I will accompany you to relieve boredom, just talk about happy things." Mrs. Jing smiled cheerfully, "He said that wrongly, I see you There are so many things to worry about all day long, where is it that I accompany you to relieve boredom, it is you who accompany me to relieve boredom!"
Xiao Yuzhuo's heart felt warm.
With such a good mother-in-law, the princess is so much loved by heaven!
Even seeing her mother-in-law working so hard, she should give Jing Yannian another chance, and believe that he is really willing to make changes, not just coaxing on a whim.
On New Year's Eve, Mrs. Jing and Jing Yannian didn't bother to ask Xiao Yuzhuo to return to the General's Mansion.
The eldest princess was afraid that she would be lonely, so she sent someone to invite her back to the princess's mansion to celebrate the new year together.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't agree, but instead asked Mrs. Jing to eat flat food with her and stay through the year.
After the banquet in the palace was over, Jing Yannian was able to hurry back.
At that time Xiao Yuzhuo was dozing off little by little, and saw a tall and big figure carefully picking her up and putting her on the bed.
Pulled the quilt over her.
"There's food left for you in the kitchen." Xiao Yuzhuo muttered.
Suddenly, I felt a warm kiss on my lips, full of nostalgia, tossing and grinding...
She reached out to hug his arm, tilted her head, and pillowed on his arm.
A gentle and comfortable chuckle came from beside him.
She rolled her eyelids, after all, she was too sleepy, and fell asleep drowsily.
After thirty, Jing Yannian seems to have a lot of free time.
Hearing that she likes to see yellow wintersweet flowers, she folds many branches of wintersweet from outside every day and brings them back.
Now in her other courtyard, whether it is the bedroom or the hall, there is a faint and cool fragrance of wintersweet flowers everywhere.
She and Jing Yannian seem to get along much better than before.
Jing Yannian asked her to watch lanterns together on the Lantern Festival, and she agreed almost without thinking.
Considering her inconvenience, Jing Yannian reserved a private room on the second floor of the teahouse in Dongshi.
There were not many people, and before the lights were turned on, he sent someone to escort her to the teahouse for a small sit.
"The general will come after he arranges the affairs in the palace." Liao Changsheng said as he escorted her to the teahouse.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, the location of this teahouse is good, if you don't want to be crowded in the crowd, you can also see a lot of lanterns in this teahouse.
It's just that the sky is not yet dark, and the lanterns are not brightly lit.
There were a lot of talking and laughing voices from the corridor outside the private room.
Xiao Yuzhuo stood by the window, looking down at the people coming and going on the street.
In the past when the general lived, she only wanted to escape from Jing Yannian.
Probably never thought that there would be such a day, she was vaguely expecting him to come back soon, right?
People's hearts are really fickle...
Just as he was thinking about it, he looked down, but an acquaintance jumped out of the carriage.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help squinting his eyes.
On weekdays, the private room in the teahouse is not cheap, and it is a rare opportunity during the Lantern Festival, the price of private rooms in the teahouse is ridiculously expensive.
The location of this teahouse is good, and you can see the lanterns by the window. Apart from being rich, the status is not low.
Therefore, it was not too unexpected for Xiao Yuzhuo to meet an acquaintance here.
After Xiao Sixiniang jumped out of the carriage, she didn't go directly into the tea house, but walked quickly to another carriage, waiting for the people in that carriage to get off.
Xiao Shiliuniang always wanted to save face very much, and someone who could ask her to condescend to wait on her own initiative aroused Xiao Yuzhuo's curiosity.
She stared wide-eyed and stood by the window, watching motionlessly.
The carriage shook, and a little girl jumped out first.
The little girl looks familiar.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help but snorted when the little girl helped the master out of the car with a pure white hand.
Mei Xiang and Zhu Xiang were lying on the window curiously, looking out.
Xiao Yuzhuo hooked the corners of his lips, "Why did Liu Niang hook up with her?"
Mei Xiang poked her head out of the window.
I saw Xiao Sixiniang holding the little lady's arm and walking towards the teahouse with a smile.
She was shocked and said: "Liu Niang looks like she has a very good relationship with Princess Six?!"
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted, "They look like sisters."
Sixteen Niang's chatter and laughter came from the corridor.
Li Huizhi's voice was gentle and soft, but not too harsh.
Xiao Shiliuniang was very defensive, with all her scheming on her face.
Li Huizhi, who speaks softly and softly, is the one who eats people without spit out bones.
"Why are they still sitting in the private room? Why don't they go to the Imperial Street?" Mei Xiang was suspicious, "The lanterns on the Imperial Street are more beautiful than the ones here!"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes, "Why do they care?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl knocked on the door and came in, "Miss, your tea and snacks."
Sixteen Niang glanced in, and immediately yelled, "Hey! Isn't this my sister of the Xiao family?"
(End of this chapter)
Taking advantage of Liuniang's greeting, Xiao Yuzhuo was about to run away while holding the maid's hand.
But Li Tai turned his face, his eyes fell on her, "Miss Xiao, are you leaving now?"
Xiao Yuzhuo stood still, turned around reluctantly, "Thank you, King Yue, I have to go to pay my respects to Auntie, so I won't delay the work of King Yue."
"No delay." Li Tai said with a half-smile, "Long time no see, how is Miss Xiao?"
Do you care what happened to him?
If he told his father to know, she would have a hard time living again!
Seeing that she was silent, Li Tai raised his foot to approach her, his gaze kept on her face, "I heard that General Qian moved to another courtyard in the suburbs of the city to protect Lady Xiao and the child in her womb?"
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted softly, backed away calmly, and opened the distance between the two, "Yes, didn't the King of Yue already know about it? Why bother to ask?"
Li Tai lowered his eyes, and his smile gradually subsided, "I heard that General Jing has now moved back to the General's Mansion. It's because the lady doesn't want to reconcile with the General. Has the General given up?"
Ok?
Xiao Yuzhuo raised his eyebrows slightly, he moved back?What happened to the sound of the piano heard every afternoon?
"No... don't care about your business!" Xiao Yuzhuo said immediately.
Li Tai hooked the corners of his lips, and bent slightly to look at her, "You are the general's wife, so it's really none of my business. But if you don't care about each other, then..."
"That's none of your business!" Xiao Yuzhuo said immediately.
"Is His Highness the King of Yue coming to see my grandfather? Grandfather is in the Weirui Courtyard, shall I guide His Highness the King of Yue?" Xiao Sixiniang said suddenly.
Taking advantage of Li Tai's turning back.
Xiao Yuzhuo supported Zhuxiang's hand, and walked away.
She is very fast now, she doesn't look like a pregnant woman at all, she walks like flying and moves like a rabbit.
Not paying attention, Zhuxiang pulled her but didn't grab her. At the bend of the path, she bumped into someone's arms.
Fortunately, Zhuxiang protected her stomach, and the man was knocked back two steps by her.
"Auntie, be careful!" Xiao Yuzhuo stood firm and stretched out his hand to support her.
She quickly grabbed her maid to stand still, "Yuyu is pregnant, why is she walking in such a hurry?"
As soon as the eldest lady finished speaking, she saw Xiao Sixiniang and Yue Wang Li Tai standing on the rockery.
The King of Yue stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fell to this side coldly and indifferently.
Xiao Shiliuniang's cheeks were flushed, shy and timid, her hands were clasped together, squirming.
If it wasn't for the disheveled clothes and loose hair, the brand-new bright red cloak rolled a lot of dust, she would appear to be in a panic.
This shy look is quite interesting.
The eldest lady's expression turned ugly immediately.
Xiao Yuzhuo ran away in such a rush again, she immediately thought that Xiao Yuzhuo had bumped into her daughter's appearance and felt embarrassed, so she hurriedly avoided.
Immediately, Xiao Yuzhuo felt considerate and courteous.
It was her own daughter who really humiliated her in front of King Yue and Xiao Yuzhuo.
"Liu Niang!" the eldest lady snapped.
Xiao Shiliuniang couldn't help being startled when she saw the eldest lady.
She looked at King Yue reluctantly again, and then hurriedly walked towards the eldest lady.
"Look at what you look like? Why don't you go back to your own yard and change?" The eldest lady lowered her voice and scolded.
Xiao Shiliuniang wanted to look back, but was glared at by the lady.
Xiao Shiliuniang stood aside reluctantly, pouting.
The eldest lady Fushen said to the King of Yue: "Please also ask the prince to move, this place is considered half of the inner courtyard..."
Li Tai snorted, "I heard that the quarrels were fierce, so I was curious. I didn't expect that between sisters, quarrels would develop into fights... It's really wonderful."
Li Tai smiled.
The eldest lady's expression changed, and she looked back.
"Are you still leaving?" Xiao Sixiniang urged Xiao Yuzhuo.
Xiao Yuzhuo walked away.
But she suddenly raised her foot and stepped on Xiao Yuzhuo's skirt.
Unprepared, Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly staggered and threw himself on the ground.
This scene just fell into the eyes of the eldest lady who looked back.
Xiao Yuzhuo exclaimed.
Fortunately, Zhuxiang was by her side, so she reacted very quickly and reached out to hug her.
Xiao Yuzhuo stood firm and patted his heart, as if a little frightened.
The eldest lady has already turned pale with fright.
She is pregnant now, if she just lays down like this, her stomach hits the ground first, the consequences...
Xiao Shiliuniang's face was gloomy, she didn't feel guilty or repentant, on the contrary, she seemed a little regretful and unwilling.
Da Furen raised her hand and wanted to slap Sixteen Niang so that she could wake up.
But after all, she is his own daughter, after all, she can't bear to call her so shameless.
She hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xiao Yuzhuo's other hand, "Yuyu, be careful, she is inconvenient now, she should be more cautious when walking, don't panic, she bumped into me just now..."
Mei Xiang stared, "How could it be the same! Someone stepped on my wife's skirt just now!"
Mei Xiang pointed at Xiao Yuzhuo's skirt, stared and shouted sharply.
On the edge of the primrose-colored group, a footprint is very obvious.
The eldest lady quickly looked at the servant girl, "You also have to be careful, walk behind the lady, and pay attention to your feet!"
She didn't look at Xiao Shiliuniang.
"What Da Furen said... We waiters don't even understand this thing? These footprints are clearly stepped on on purpose! Who dares to harm the master?" Mei Xiang said with red eyes.
Xiao Yuzhuo just lowered his eyes, didn't say a word, didn't stop Mei Xiang, and nodded secretly to Mei Xiang.
Mei Xiang got the approval, and immediately felt even more aggrieved, sniffing and crying: "My wife is celebrating Chinese New Year, and she wanted to visit her natal home, but the eldest princess didn't go there. The eldest daughter-in-law of Xiao's family respects you more than her own mother... I never thought that I have been wronged by you, but I don't even have a place to reason..."
The more Mei Xiang talked, the more sad she became, and she actually burst into tears.
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his head, didn't say a word, and stroked his stomach with both hands, looking frightened.
The eldest lady only felt a headache.
If she is like this, if the eldest princess knows, the Xiao family will not have to have a safe birthday this year.
Who doesn't know that she is the eyeball of the eldest princess... I will have trouble with her everywhere when I was born 16 years ago!Is it a coincidence or what?
The eldest lady turned her head sharply, and saw King Yue was looking at this side with great interest, with a smile on his lips.
She felt that one head and two were bigger.
"Okay, don't cry, I know Yuyu, you have been wronged. Don't worry, my aunt is in charge of you! There are always some ignorant people in this yard, and because of their young age, it's not worth it to do things. Daddy and mother bothering her?"
"Whoever is young, mother, I..."
"Shut up!" The eldest lady gave Xiao Sixiniang a hard look.
Frightened by her stern look, Xiao Shiliuniang shut up and dared not speak any more.
The eldest lady took a step forward, held Xiao Yuzhuo's hand, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you open a cabinet? Your mother will definitely not agree... But my aunt supports you! My aunt still has some dowry for her..."
Only then did Xiao Yuzhuo raise his head, and glanced at the eldest lady lightly, "Auntie, I was quite frightened just now, and my heart is still thumping... don't worry about pregnant women, I have to take good care of it, I can’t worry about it for a few days. Since you support me, if you don’t want to deposit those that you don’t need for a while, you can also deposit them in the cabinet. Not only is it guaranteed, but you can also get more interest! You just sit and wait to collect Money! In this way, I don't worry, and you can get the benefits, right?"
The eldest lady's eyebrows were tangled, "I am not in charge of Zhongfu, I have your grandmother on top of me, this matter..."
"Grandmother has already handed all these into your hands. Why are you being modest in front of your niece? Could it be that you are afraid that I will swallow the money from the Xiao family and not return it to you? You can put a hundred Xin, why don't you deposit for three months first? At that time, I will send you the principal and interest together! I can't lose you!" Xiao Yuzhuo said slowly.
The eldest lady is still hesitating, "I can't decide on such a big matter by myself..."
"Oh... I was so scared just now, what's in my heart... Turning around, when Auntie and the general asked, I had to say exactly, I saw it, beside the rockery, Sixteen Niang and..."
"Okay, okay!" Da Furen repeatedly agreed, "You come to my courtyard later, I will keep it for three months first! It's just Yuyu..."
She took a step forward, raised her hand to hold Xiao Yuzhuo's, "Your sister's reputation is a big deal, you can't be careless about it!"
Xiao Yuzhuo smiled slightly, and patted the back of her hand, "Don't worry, Auntie, I didn't see anything, I just went to pay my respects to Auntie!"
The eldest lady nodded, "I know, you are a sensible child, and you know the importance best."
The two spoke in a low voice.
Sixteen Niang seemed to understand but half understood, and the sight of the King of Yue on this side also made her feel distracted.
"Aniang, what did you promise her?" Sixteen Niang asked with a pout.
The eldest lady glared at her, if it wasn't for this good daughter who would cause trouble for her, how could she be so passive?
Originally, he thought that if he took out the ten puns and a hundred guans, it could be regarded as saving Xiao Yuzhuo's favor and selling them well, so he didn't care about whether he could get them back or not.
This is great!
Xiao Yuzhuo supported the servant girl's hand, strolled in the courtyard, and walked away leisurely.
On her rosy, rosy cheeks, where can she see a half-frightened look?
Xiao Yuzhuo greeted the eldest princess and happily went to the Da Furen's courtyard.
The eldest lady still wanted to prevaricate her, so she directly prepared a carriage and waited outside the yard of the warehouse.
"Auntie, don't bother, I have all the chariots and horses ready, as long as you have the right cards, go there yourself!" Xiao Yuzhuo smiled like a little fox.
The eldest lady was speechless, and followed her to the warehouse.
Xiao Yuzhuo carried away several large boxes of copper coins from the warehouse.
The cloth was folded into cash, but she was afraid that her aunt would not let it go, so she didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, the aunt took the initiative to say, "Can this object be exchanged for silver?"
Xiao Yuzhuo was happy, "Of course it's fine, as long as we negotiate the price with each other."
The eldest lady smiled slightly, and became happy, "Some fabrics were made a few years ago, and they are not fashionable now. Let's make clothes for the servants, but they are of the best material. If they are worn by the servants, I'm afraid The people in a few rooms say that I don’t know how to live. But they don’t want to make clothes for them, and they can’t give them away...”
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, if something like this happened to the Xiao family, it would certainly happen to other aristocratic families.
"It's a waste to pile them up in the warehouse," said the lady.
"Why didn't Madam sell it in the east and west markets?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked intentionally.
The eldest lady waved her hand, "If I can't live on, I will sell my own things! How can I do this!"
It's really rich people's wine and meat stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road.
I would rather pile the cloth in the warehouse and get moldy than let the servants wear it, let alone take it out and sell it at a low price...
Xiao Yuzhuo clenched her fists. She was really doing a major event to promote the circulation of resources, improve the lives of the people, and benefit the country and the people!
"I asked my shopkeeper to estimate the price and show it to my uncle, and I will also sign a three-month contract for you." Xiao Yuzhuo said seriously.
The eldest lady pretended to be polite, "We are all a family, how can I not trust you?"
"Whether you believe it or not is one thing. Since money is involved, you should make it clear and clear, so you can rest assured, and I can rest assured!" Xiao Yuzhuo said.
The eldest lady also stopped being polite and nodded in agreement.
Xiao Yuzhuo asked someone to bring out the cloth that the lady had picked out, and at the same time asked someone to invite Mr. Liang over.
Liang Sheng has good eyesight, and he is very attentive in his work. He heard that cloth was also involved, and he even brought a friend from the cloth village to the door immediately.
The shopkeeper of the cloth village speaks clearly and logically, and is very knowledgeable.
At first, the eldest lady felt that the price he gave was too low.
But after his detailed analysis, he felt that she was taking advantage of Xiao Yuzhuo.
It is really a way out to rely on lip service.
The shopkeeper of this cloth shop is simply a three-inch tongue.
The eldest lady was convinced, and finally gave Xiao Yuzhuo a few bolts of cloth.
When Xiao Yuzhuo came back with a full load, Xiao Sixiniang was being punished by the eldest lady to copy books.
She was locked in the boudoir, while copying, she cried aggrievedly.
·
The land in the south of the city was still deserted, and Xiao Yuzhuo took advantage of the New Year's Eve to attract a lot of depositors, but most of them were fixed for three months.And it's all based on the favor of relatives.
For the land construction in the south of the city, it will take a long time for the funds to return.
She couldn't use this money to invest in the south of the city. She and Liang Sheng discussed investing the money in a part of Wufangzhai, opening branches in the east market and west market, and even several large workshops for chain operation.
The return of Wufangzhai's funds is faster.
When the time comes, she will be happy to pay interest. After their cabinet shop becomes famous, they will naturally not worry about no one depositing money in the cabinet shop.
At that time, they will have more security when they invest in the land in the south of the city.
Xiao Yuzhuo returned to the mansion after discussing with Wufangzhai. When he passed Jing Yannian's expanded courtyard, he happened to meet Jing Yannian coming out of the courtyard.
I don't know if it was a coincidence, or the so-called tacit understanding.
She just opened the curtains of the car, and he just happened to ride out on horseback, and he came face to face.
Looking at each other across the bullock cart.
As if time stopped at this moment, all she could see was the tall horse, and he was riding majestic on the horse's back.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't know why, but her face was inexplicably hot, and she quickly put down the curtains of the car.
His heart was beating uncontrollably.
It seemed that someone had spied on some secret, which made her inexplicably nervous.
"What's the matter, lady?" Mei Xiang looked at her slightly flustered look, especially puzzled.
As soon as the words fell, someone coughed lightly outside the car window.
"So Madam isn't at the house?" Jing Yannian's voice sounded very pleasant through the curtains of the car.
Xiao Yuzhuo's heart beat faster, she frowned, and suddenly stretched out her hand to lift the curtain of the car.
Jing Yannian's eyes fell on her slender and slender fingers, and he was absent-minded for a moment.
"Uh, I went to visit relatives at Xiao's house. I heard that General Jing moved back to the General's Mansion?" After Xiao Yuzhuo asked, he raised his eyes and looked at him with burning eyes.
Jing Yannian's gaze shifted from her fair fingers to her rosy cheeks, "Yes, because this place is on the outskirts of the city, there are many banquets in the New Year's Palace, so precautions must be taken, and it is very inconvenient to live here. "
Xiao Yuzhuo let out a groan, as if he was going to put down the curtains of the car.
Jing Yannian immediately spoke again, "But I can spare an hour every afternoon...you don't want me to... pester you, maybe it won't bother you too much across the yard?"
He has always been proud and domineering.
Today, he was able to say such words in front of the servant girls and servants, admitting that he was the one who "tangled" her.
Xiao Yuzhuo was so shocked that he could hardly believe his ears.
Seeing her dazed expression, Jing Yannian smiled slightly.
For a moment, thousands of trees and pear trees bloom...
Xiao Yuzhuo was stunned when he realized that he was useless.
"But don't worry, although I don't stay here at night, I have strengthened the defense of the other courtyard. The New Year is not stable, so you should bring more people with you when you go out. If you feel bored, ask your mother to come and talk to you." Jing Yan Nian's voice was flat.
He seldom said so many words so calmly.
And there are still some warm words.
Xiao Yuzhuo felt like she didn't know him anymore, she licked her lips, "Are... are you okay?"
Could it be that what she said that day has irritated him?
Jing Yannian looked up at the sky, and sighed slightly for a while, "It's snowing."
Ok?
Xiao Yuzhuo was taken aback for a moment, and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, there were tiny snowflakes falling from the sky, but the small ones under the snow didn't seem obvious when viewed from a close distance.
"It's cold and the road is slippery, so be careful." Jing Yannian looked down at her in the bullock cart.
Xiao Yuzhuo suddenly felt that there was a hand stove in his head, which was so hot that the warmth was unreal.
"You..." She looked up at Jing Yannian on the tall horse, he was too abnormal.
Jing Yannian suddenly got off his horse and walked two steps closer to the bullock cart.
As she got closer, she seemed to be able to see the pupils of his eyes clearly, and she could also see herself in his eyes.
He breathed in vain, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "You said equality and respect that day... I admit that I have never thought about it that way, and I don't know that you thought about it. What exactly is equality?" I don't quite understand what is called respect. I asked the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, and they told me that I was in a cloud. I'm presumptuous because of your feelings."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked at him in shock.
If it was said that his caring words just now had flattered her, then his vaguely apologetic words at this moment made her even more unbelievable.
Is this really what Jing Yannian, the arrogant and conceited general, said?
"I will try to accept what you mean by equality, and try to learn what you mean by respect." Jing Yannian lowered his eyes and chuckled, then looked up at her suddenly.
His eyes were bright, as if sprinkled with diamonds, full of light flowing.
"The master who taught me Kung Fu once said that I am a good apprentice, and my husband also said that I am a studious student. I only hope that my wife will be more patient."
He bowed his hands to her with a pious and serious attitude.
Xiao Yuzhuo was so shocked that she could hardly regain her senses. She stretched out her hand ignorantly, and touched his forehead, "It's cold and easy to catch cold, don't you have a fever?"
Jing Yannian stood still and let her touch his forehead.
"Juxiang?" Xiao Yuzhuo murmured, "You give the general a pulse?"
Jing Yannian raised his hand to hold her hand, and took another step forward. His shoulders were already leaning on the bullock cart, "I won't force you, but I only hope that you will eventually return to the General's Mansion to give birth to a child."
Xiao Yuzhuo trembled slightly when he held the hand, "I, this me... There is nothing missing in the other courtyard, Auntie has sent two or three experienced midwives... I..."
Jing Yannian took a deep look at her, those dark and deep eyes made Xiao Yuzhuo's remaining words stuck in his throat.
"I'll be patient too." After he finished speaking, he pushed her hand back to the car window.
He glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo again, smiled slightly, and got on his horse.
"Ma'am, are you going?" Mei Xiang asked anxiously.
Only then did Xiao Yuzhuo put down the curtains of the car, "Let's go."
The ox cart passed by him slowly, and he didn't hit the horse until all the carts, horses and oxen had entered the yard.
Since Xiao Yuzhuo came home, he has been looking at the wintersweet flowers outside the window, silently in a daze.
Mei Xiang followed her gaze and looked out.
The snow is falling heavily now, pure white snow falls on the lustrous waxy yellow petals, and the curled branches are also stained with white snow.
Looking at it like this, it is indeed beautiful, but it is not possible for the lady to look at it for so long, right?
"Although the earth dragon was burned, it will be cold if the windows are opened for a long time?" Mei Xiang whispered.
Xiao Yuzhuo ignored her at all.
Ju Xiang pouted at her, "Close the window."
Mei Xiang stared, "How can I do that, the lady is watching the snow!"
Ju Xiang smiled at her, "Try closing it!"
Mei Xiang shook her head, "Why don't you turn it off?"
"Try it, try it!" Ju Xiang encouraged her.
Mei Xiang came to the window, looked back at Xiao Yuzhuo, and closed the window carefully.
But Xiao Yuzhuo still looked in the direction of the window, didn't move a muscle, didn't even blink his eyes, and didn't respond.
Mei Xiang stared at Ju Xiang with wide eyes, "Isn't the lady looking at the snow?"
Ju Xiang shook her head, "My lady didn't look at anything."
"Lady, what's the matter with you?" Mei Xiang was worried, stepped forward and knelt at Xiao Yuzhuo's feet, and gently pushed her knee.
Xiao Yuzhuo came back to his senses in astonishment, "He didn't even interrogate me why I went, who did I see? I came back late, and he wasn't angry, and he was still concerned about me with a smile on his face?"
Mei Xiang rolled her eyes, "You mean the general? The general looks different today than he usually does."
"What's different, it's too different." Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head again and again, "I haven't seen him for a long time, why does he look like a different person?"
Could it be the same as myself, time travel?
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded for a while, then shook his head again and again.
Mrs. Jing brought a small and exquisite bellyband, and she finally came back to her senses.
Xiao Yuzhuo patted his forehead suddenly, "Mrs. Jing, did you say anything to the general?"
Madam Jing looked up at her, "Have you met Nian'er?"
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded repeatedly.
Mrs. Jing smiled slightly, "He asked me, what is equality, what equality do women want?"
Xiao Yuzhuo's face became hot.
She was just out of breath that day, so she didn't choose what to say, she was talking to an ancient man!Or an ancient man talking about equality!
"I don't understand either. I just told him how I raised him all these years and faced many things alone." Mrs. Jing smiled again, her face was full of gentleness and kindness, "I don't want to My grandson will be born in an incomplete family."
Xiao Yuzhuo looked down at her stomach.
Jing Yannian said that he didn't want the child to have no father.Mrs. Jing said that she did not want her child to have a complete family.
But she, as the child's mother, has always hardened her heart and must pursue the independence she wants. Is she wrong?
"Okay, Nian'er doesn't ask me to talk too much, just say that I will accompany you to relieve boredom, just talk about happy things." Mrs. Jing smiled cheerfully, "He said that wrongly, I see you There are so many things to worry about all day long, where is it that I accompany you to relieve boredom, it is you who accompany me to relieve boredom!"
Xiao Yuzhuo's heart felt warm.
With such a good mother-in-law, the princess is so much loved by heaven!
Even seeing her mother-in-law working so hard, she should give Jing Yannian another chance, and believe that he is really willing to make changes, not just coaxing on a whim.
On New Year's Eve, Mrs. Jing and Jing Yannian didn't bother to ask Xiao Yuzhuo to return to the General's Mansion.
The eldest princess was afraid that she would be lonely, so she sent someone to invite her back to the princess's mansion to celebrate the new year together.
Xiao Yuzhuo didn't agree, but instead asked Mrs. Jing to eat flat food with her and stay through the year.
After the banquet in the palace was over, Jing Yannian was able to hurry back.
At that time Xiao Yuzhuo was dozing off little by little, and saw a tall and big figure carefully picking her up and putting her on the bed.
Pulled the quilt over her.
"There's food left for you in the kitchen." Xiao Yuzhuo muttered.
Suddenly, I felt a warm kiss on my lips, full of nostalgia, tossing and grinding...
She reached out to hug his arm, tilted her head, and pillowed on his arm.
A gentle and comfortable chuckle came from beside him.
She rolled her eyelids, after all, she was too sleepy, and fell asleep drowsily.
After thirty, Jing Yannian seems to have a lot of free time.
Hearing that she likes to see yellow wintersweet flowers, she folds many branches of wintersweet from outside every day and brings them back.
Now in her other courtyard, whether it is the bedroom or the hall, there is a faint and cool fragrance of wintersweet flowers everywhere.
She and Jing Yannian seem to get along much better than before.
Jing Yannian asked her to watch lanterns together on the Lantern Festival, and she agreed almost without thinking.
Considering her inconvenience, Jing Yannian reserved a private room on the second floor of the teahouse in Dongshi.
There were not many people, and before the lights were turned on, he sent someone to escort her to the teahouse for a small sit.
"The general will come after he arranges the affairs in the palace." Liao Changsheng said as he escorted her to the teahouse.
Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, the location of this teahouse is good, if you don't want to be crowded in the crowd, you can also see a lot of lanterns in this teahouse.
It's just that the sky is not yet dark, and the lanterns are not brightly lit.
There were a lot of talking and laughing voices from the corridor outside the private room.
Xiao Yuzhuo stood by the window, looking down at the people coming and going on the street.
In the past when the general lived, she only wanted to escape from Jing Yannian.
Probably never thought that there would be such a day, she was vaguely expecting him to come back soon, right?
People's hearts are really fickle...
Just as he was thinking about it, he looked down, but an acquaintance jumped out of the carriage.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help squinting his eyes.
On weekdays, the private room in the teahouse is not cheap, and it is a rare opportunity during the Lantern Festival, the price of private rooms in the teahouse is ridiculously expensive.
The location of this teahouse is good, and you can see the lanterns by the window. Apart from being rich, the status is not low.
Therefore, it was not too unexpected for Xiao Yuzhuo to meet an acquaintance here.
After Xiao Sixiniang jumped out of the carriage, she didn't go directly into the tea house, but walked quickly to another carriage, waiting for the people in that carriage to get off.
Xiao Shiliuniang always wanted to save face very much, and someone who could ask her to condescend to wait on her own initiative aroused Xiao Yuzhuo's curiosity.
She stared wide-eyed and stood by the window, watching motionlessly.
The carriage shook, and a little girl jumped out first.
The little girl looks familiar.
Xiao Yuzhuo couldn't help but snorted when the little girl helped the master out of the car with a pure white hand.
Mei Xiang and Zhu Xiang were lying on the window curiously, looking out.
Xiao Yuzhuo hooked the corners of his lips, "Why did Liu Niang hook up with her?"
Mei Xiang poked her head out of the window.
I saw Xiao Sixiniang holding the little lady's arm and walking towards the teahouse with a smile.
She was shocked and said: "Liu Niang looks like she has a very good relationship with Princess Six?!"
Xiao Yuzhuo snorted, "They look like sisters."
Sixteen Niang's chatter and laughter came from the corridor.
Li Huizhi's voice was gentle and soft, but not too harsh.
Xiao Shiliuniang was very defensive, with all her scheming on her face.
Li Huizhi, who speaks softly and softly, is the one who eats people without spit out bones.
"Why are they still sitting in the private room? Why don't they go to the Imperial Street?" Mei Xiang was suspicious, "The lanterns on the Imperial Street are more beautiful than the ones here!"
Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes, "Why do they care?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl knocked on the door and came in, "Miss, your tea and snacks."
Sixteen Niang glanced in, and immediately yelled, "Hey! Isn't this my sister of the Xiao family?"
