Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 35
The days are not fast or slow, Xie Changan follows the routine every day, women's red, literacy and hyphenation are quite effective, especially Xie Changan has imitated Xie Changning's handwriting almost perfectly, but the piano skill cannot be practiced overnight Yes, it is still not satisfactory, Xie Changan secretly worried, so he can only work harder, the female teacher can't help but feel distressed when she sees it.

Today, Mrs. Lin was having dinner with Xie Changan, and said, "Ning'er, my mother heard yesterday that the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday is approaching, and the Emperor will definitely have a big banquet for all the ministers, and the Empress Dowager likes it very much." For young children, it is inevitable that you will be called into the palace to be lively, Ning'er, you must be prepared..."

In previous years, when the queen mother celebrated her birthday, the emperor knew that the queen mother liked young children, so he recruited the children of officials above the fifth rank into the palace to have a banquet together, which seemed to make the younger generation want to see it.In this dynasty, there were very few blind marriages. Parents of both parties would arrange for their children to meet each other when they wanted to, and only then entered into a marriage contract if they liked each other. Therefore, it was not unreasonable to do so.

Xie Changan frowned and said, "Mother, can I not go to the birthday banquet? Mother, you also know that during the Queen's birthday banquet, my sister moved the capital with a song "Yuntai Diao". I play the piano for fun, but now my piano skills are really not on the table..."

"Ning'er, if there is nothing important, this matter must not be postponed. You also know that the crime of deceiving the emperor is a death penalty... What should I do? Ning'er... Mother, go and discuss it with your ancestors! Sigh, what can I do..." After speaking, Mrs. Lin was about to go to the room, Xie Changan hurriedly followed.

After Mrs. Xie knew the purpose of Lin's and Xie Chang'an's visit, she thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, if your hand is hurt, you won't be able to play the piano..."

Immediately, Lin understood what the old lady Xie meant, and looked at Xie Chang'an worriedly. My poor An'er, I'm afraid she's about to suffer again... for a moment her eyes turned red.

"Grandmother, granddaughter understands..." He seemed to think of something again, "Grandmother, if the Empress Dowager insists on me performing, what should granddaughter do?" There is no advantage!

"Ning'er, you can't rely on grandma for everything. No one can predict what will happen during the birthday party. Grandma won't be by your side at that time, so you have to rely on yourself." Madam Xie continued, sipping her tea. : "There are still a few days before the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, think carefully, grandma is tired..." Xie Chang'an still has a long way to go, and she can only rely on herself in the future...

Hearing this, Lin and Xie Changan retreated knowingly, Lin secretly blamed Mrs. Xie for being unkind.Xie Chang'an seemed to see what Lin was thinking, and said softly: "Mother, grandma is getting old, it's our fault that we went to trouble her old man... Grandma is right, if I rely too much on her, I won't give up after the birthday banquet." I’m afraid it’s going to be hard to handle.”

Hearing this, Lin felt ashamed, but Xie Changan saw it more clearly than himself, and said embarrassingly: "Ning'er, mother is also impatient... However, the old ancestors always thought about what they did, as long as Ning'er has the bottom line in your heart, Mother is not worried anymore!"

Silent all night.

The next day, Marquis Rong An got off the court and informed Xie Chang'an: "An'er, three days later, the Emperor will celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager, and the children of officials above the fifth rank in the court will go to celebrate the birthday, so you should make some preparations! "Xie Chang'an responded with no expression on his face.

Not long after, news came from Zhuyiyuan that Xie Changan accidentally injured his hand when he was practicing female red. Marquis Rong An frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked Lin who seemed to have expected it: "Ning'er, what's the matter?" Is it intentional? Why is this?"

"My lord, Ning'er is definitely not allowed to play the piano at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. There is no other way but this method...I'd better go and see how Ning'er's hand is hurt...This child is cruel, I don't know how hard this will be. hands!" Lin still had lingering fears about Xie Changan's self-harm before.

This time, Xie Changning's left hand was still injured, and he agreed to the outside world that Xie Changning accidentally injured his hand to make a purse for Yan Qinglan. In this way, no one should doubt it. After all, the two are engaged, and giving each other small things is not harmful. .

Because of the preparations, Xie Changan's hand had already been bandaged at this moment. Lin Shi saw the gauze-wrapped left hand, and worried: "Ning'er, why are you so careless? How is the injury, but does it still hurt?" Lin's is not all acting, the worry is also real.

"Mother, it's just a minor injury. It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to play the piano these few days..." Xie Changan felt sad.

Lin scolded and said: "When the injury is healed, you can play the piano whenever you want, and let's live in peace now!"

The fact that Xie Chang'an hurt his hand while embroidering the purse for Yan Qinglan somehow reached Yan Qinglan's ears. hand, this is not worth the candle.Not knowing how Changning's hand was hurt, Yan Qinglan couldn't help worrying, and immediately wrote a letter to ask Li Caifu to go to the Rong'an Hou Mansion to express condolences, and brought some medicinal materials along with her.

When Xiao Yu got the news, he jumped up and down anxiously, pestered Xiao Yuan and said, "Brother, Chang'an hurt his hand, you should ask the imperial doctor to show Chang'an! Brother, Yu'er knows that you are the best..."

Xiao Yuan said helplessly: "Yu'er, it's not a big deal for Xie Chang'an to hurt his hand, don't bother the imperial physician..."

Xiao Yu persisted and said: "Brother, if you don't let the imperial physician go, then take me to see Chang'an. I haven't seen Chang'an for a long time..." As he spoke, he felt wronged.Even if he saw Xie Changan before, Xie Changan didn't pay much attention to him. Instead, it was the Yan Shizi who comforted him and told him to go home early. This made Xiao Yu feel inferior, but he couldn't help but want to see Xie Changan. Chang'an...

"Yu'er, the emperor's grandmother's birthday banquet will be held in three days. Then you will be able to see Xie Chang'an. You won't go today, otherwise people will misunderstand Xie Chang'an. Are you willing to hear bad things about Xie Chang'an?"

Although Xiao Yu was unwilling, he still focused on Xie Chang'an, and said in a muffled voice: "Then I won't go today..." Seeing that Xiao Yu finally calmed down, Xiao Yuan let out a sigh of relief, but thought to himself : How did Xie Chang'an hurt his hand? The imperial grandmother's birthday banquet is coming soon. What a coincidence...

Seeing that Yan Qinglan sent someone to comfort Xie Chang'an, he was very happy, and the pain in his hand subsided a bit.After reading Yan Qinglan's letter, Xie Changan wanted to reply to Yan Qinglan's letter on a whim, so he let Qingshuang grind it.This is the first time Xie Changan wrote a reply to Yan Qinglan, and he didn't know where to start writing. Qingshuang saw that the lady didn't know where to write, and said with a smile: "Miss, if you don't know how to write, just follow Yan Qinglan. Write the son's letter!"

Xie Changan glanced at Qingshuang approvingly, and was about to start writing according to Shizi Yan's letter, but stopped for some reason, after thinking about it, he just wrote that his hand injury was not a serious problem, so that Yan Qinglan didn't have to worry In addition, the two will meet again at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet three days later... After signing the payment, Xie Chang'an read the letter carefully before handing it to Qingshuang with a sigh of relief.

Xie Chang'an read Yan Qinglan's letter carefully again, and then reluctantly put it into the wooden box.Xie Changan carefully stored Yan Qinglan's letters. Whenever he was confused, painful, and exhausted, Xie Changan read these letters over and over again. The clear and vigorous fonts, and the lines full of love , can always give Xie Changan the strength to stabilize, let her approach Yan Qinglan tenaciously... Xie Changan can't help but be in a daze, if Xie Changan in the past, why would he care about the love of these children?That's all, the past is like smoke, it's useless to think about it!
Yan Qinglan received Xie Changan's letter, and asked in great surprise: "Ah Fu, is this a reply letter from Changan and me?" Yan Qinglan couldn't believe it, he had never received a reply letter from Xie Changan.Li Caifu said: "My lord, this is Xie Changan's reply letter from you."

Yan Qinglan was ecstatic, took the letter and went to the study.Carefully unfolding the letter, you will see the extremely beautiful lower script with hairpin flowers, delicate and smooth, just like Xie Changning's gentleness when we first met.Yan Qinglan read the letter ten times at a glance, and then carefully read it from beginning to end, for fear of missing any word... Even though Xie Changan's writing was as plain as water, Yan Qinglan was very satisfied, he knew that he had written "Xie Changning" opened his heart...

Because of Xie Chang'an's letter, Yan Qinglan smiled like a spring breeze all day long, and even smiled a little bit at Su Ningwei who was sick and stayed in the Prince's Mansion of Yanjun.Su Ningwei couldn't help but stare dumbfounded, and her heart became more and more determined. How could such a cousin like a banished fairy be monopolized by Xie Chang'an...

That night, when Yan Qinglan passed by the lotus pond in the garden, Su Ningwei "accidentally" fell into the water, fluttered in the water, and shouted in horror: "Help! Help..." Yan Qinglan's eyes dimmed Shan, said to Li Caifu: "Ah Fu, go and rescue Miss Biao." After giving the order, he turned around and left, not just walking away, but ordering the servant girl to bring the clothes over.This Su Ningwei must not stay in the mansion.

Su Ningwei really doesn't have water, she believes that Yan Qinglan won't die without help, before she lost her consciousness, she felt that someone was pulling her waist, presumably it was her cousin who came to save her?At that moment, she passed out with peace of mind, and she was secretly proud...

I don't know how long it took, when Su Ningwei woke up, she saw Princess Yan looking at herself inquisitively, and searched around, but she didn't see Yan Qinglan, and she was extremely disappointed.

"Ningwei, who are you looking at?" How could Su Ningwei's careful thoughts escape the eyes of Princess Yanjun.

Su Ningwei hurriedly said: "Ningwei didn't look at anyone, she was just in a daze for a while." After finishing speaking, she didn't dare to look up at Princess Yanjun.

"Ningwei, why are you still in the garden so late? The servant girl didn't bring one with her, and accidentally fell into the water. If it wasn't for Lan'er who happened to pass by and let Ah Fu save you..." Coincidentally, Princess Yanjun aggravated the word tone.

Su Ningwei asked incredulously after hearing the words: "My cousin didn't rescue me? How could this be? I clearly saw my cousin..." Before she finished speaking, Su Ningwei realized what she said, and she immediately looked terrified Looking at Princess Yanjun carefully.

Princess Yanjun said coldly: "It's not your fault, why wishful thinking? After two days you will recover, and I will send you back home."

Su Ningwei looked at Princess Yan's leaving back, clutching the brocade quilt tightly with both hands, no, she can't be sent back, otherwise, she would really never see her cousin again...
