Yang Xianrong first quietly returned to her parents' home, changed into the girl's clothes she had worn when she was unmarried, and stood in the backyard looking at the goods that Liu Yao had loaded into the car, slightly lost in thought.
Yang Xiankang went to Beijun Mansion early in the morning. The Yang family had only a few old slaves to take care of it, and it was very clean. This was far from the bustle of Yang Xianrong's previous wedding, and it was even slightly quiet.
Although she has not lived here seriously for a few days, it is still her natal family, and she feels a lot of emotions in her heart.
The sunshine today is excellent, the snow has already melted, the land is moist, and there is no dust on the bluestone.
His father, Yang Xuanzhi, is a very clean person and does not have too many furnishings in his home. Yang Xiankang has a minimalist style and does not eat at home on weekdays. Those old slaves also ate very simply, so even in the kitchen there was not much fire to cook.
Yang Xianrong couldn't help but smile bitterly when he realized that even though he wanted to drink hot tea, there was no water.
"Third sister?" Suddenly someone called her from behind, with some uncertainty and caution in her voice. Yang Xianrong turned around and saw Liu Yao standing under the sun, looking a little dazzling.
It was very warm today. He had taken off his coat, and was shirtless. There was still sweat on his head. He was carrying two large baskets in his hands, which looked like they were full of rice and noodles.
"Brother Liu." She laughed, and her delicate and fair face reflected in Liu Yao's eyes, "Are you going to move the granary in Luoyang?"
"Third sister." Liu Yao also laughed, his eyes full of joy, and he shouted again: "Third sister."
"It's me." Yang Xianrong smiled even more happily, "We haven't seen each other for only two days, can't you recognize me?"
"It's just... I didn't expect it." Liu Yao didn't say the words in his heart. He didn't know if he would have the chance to say it in this life, because he really liked Yang Xianrong's current appearance as a bachelorette. She looked extremely bright. I want to keep looking at her.
"You bought so many things?" Yang Xianrong looked at the goods already loaded in the yard, "What did you buy?"
"It's nothing, just some food and drink, and some relatively good silk items." Liu Yao put down the two large baskets in his hands and introduced with a smile, "Look, this is Chen Ji's cloth. The quality is much better than the ones at my home. The tea leaves here can be pressed into tea cakes, which is convenient for me to take away. I also bought some rice noodles because I think they are delicious..."
"Okay." Yang Xianrong looked around and didn't see anything special, so he asked casually: "You should bring some medicinal materials with you, some better medicinal materials."
"That's true." Liu Yao nodded, "I was thinking about it just now, but I don't have much money anymore."
"...Let's go, I have money." Yang Xianrong laughed again, "The emperor gave me one hundred taels to buy plum cakes. Think about how plum cakes need so much silver? A few copper coins are enough." So, I’m still very rich.”
"How bad is this?" Liu Yao was unhappy.
"What's there? He gave me my money. I want to buy some wolfberry, red dates and astragalus. The second brother said that there is a medicine shop in Luoyang City and the quality of the medicines is the best in the palace. Qin Taiyi often goes to him. Buy some rare medicinal materials, let's go take a look. Buy some old ginseng and take it back with you. It will be very honorable as a gift."
"Oh..." Liu Yao hesitated for a moment, but still followed Yang Xianrong's footsteps. The two quietly walked out from the corner door of Yang's house, like young men and women who secretly went out to play, and they both felt a little happy.
The prosperity of Luoyang City can no longer be described in words. Here, the two of them walked hidden among the crowd, slowly and happily. The roads are full of BMWs and cars, green windows and red doors, singing and dancing pavilions, the city is full of jewels, the houses are full of luxury, luxury and luxury... This kind of Jin Dynasty makes people have many ideas. What would happen if someone really marched in with their swords and soldiers raised and their banners held by the king?
Yang Xianrong shook his head and squeezed the money in his hand. Because he had money, he naturally didn't skimp on anything. When he saw something delicious, he bought it and took a bite, and then gave it all to Liu Yao. As a result, Liu Yao ate so much that his stomach bulged, but Yang Xianrong seemed to have not eaten yet, and was still buying all kinds of delicacies and eating them happily.
"Third sister, isn't it good for you to slip out like this?" Liu Yao finally couldn't help but ask.
"I did it on purpose." Yang Xianrong walked beside him holding the candied haws, with some incomprehensible meaning in his eyes. Following her gaze, he saw that it was the gate of Sima Ying's palace. "Cui Xi knows that she is waiting for me at the Plum Cake Shop with everyone."
"Why?" Liu Yao obviously heard a different meaning.
"Because there are so many people staring at me, everywhere." Yang Xianrong was still smiling when he said this, but Liu Yao was already alert and looked around.
"Hey, don't do this. Instead, you will become conspicuous." Yang Xianrong ate a rock candy red fruit, and his cheeks were bulging. "Don't worry, those people are staring at the plum cake shop, and no one thinks of me. Out."
"What did you come out to do?" Liu Yao asked again.
"I just...want to take a walk." Although Yang Xianrong was still smiling, the light in his eyes had dimmed a lot. "In the past year, there have been many people around me, and they all talked to me about various things. Personal purposes are different, and the content of what they say is also different. Many times, I find that I cannot calm down, think carefully, and distinguish what they say and the meaning behind it... In this case, I do have some problems. It’s not a good premonition, but I have no way of judging. My old grandmother said that if you are really upset, you should go to the busiest market and walk alone, and you will get the answer.”
"Third sister..." Liu Yao didn't know how to answer her words, so he had to call her again.
"Brother Liu, when are you leaving?" Yang Xianrong changed the subject.
"It's almost time to celebrate the Lantern Festival. I ordered some gold jewelry and I won't get it in a few days." Liu Yao said, "It's for my aunts and sisters. After all, I've been out for so long, so I still need it." Bring something for them."
"Well, you can also buy some small gold jewelry, like the small golden bean earrings that are popular in Luoyang City recently. They are very beautiful." Yang Xianrong's eyes never left the gate of Prince Sima Ying's Mansion, as if he was looking at something.
The door of the palace was closed tightly, and the previous lanterns and decorations had long been withdrawn. Because Sun Xiaohe's side was powerful and Sun Xiu made trouble several times, Sima Ying placed Sun Xiaohe's tablet in the royal family, which was considered an explanation to her. Therefore, a white lantern was hung at the entrance of the palace to indicate that the head of the family was in mourning and would not welcome guests.
