In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was bright and dim, a spring rain fell in Bianjing City, which was still sleeping.
An hour later, the sky cleared after the rain, and the sun rose from the end of the city wall. The bluestone road with water marks was reflected in gold, and it was so dazzling that one could hardly open his eyes at a glance.
The bluestones on the street and the bricks and tiles on the roofs have been washed very clean. This rain seems to have fallen specially for today's Jinshi parade.
The rain had not stopped when Xu Nuo got up. She sat up and asked Chun Tang to come in and wash herself, but she smelled the aroma of meat.
The smell is fragrant and somewhat familiar.
His hazy eyes instantly became alert.
She had a light meal in the morning, so Chun Tang and Qi Qiu would not prepare meat for breakfast, not to mention that it was not yet time for breakfast.
He scanned the room with his eyes and found nothing unusual, but the smell of meat did not diminish.
The fragrance kept drifting into the nostrils, causing Xu Nuo's stomach to growl twice in succession because he had exercised too much before going to bed last night.
Xu Nuo rubbed her hair, put on her jacket and stood up, and found that the long table on the other side of the screen was filled with vegetables, and in the middle was a plate of roast duck legs!
No wonder the aroma is so familiar, this is the roast duck leg made by Xiao Yuan!
I just ate it yesterday morning!
Looking at the table full of dishes, Xu Nuo was a little dazed.
When did her senses become so dull? Xiao Yuan put a bunch of things in and she didn't even notice.
Moreover, how was she going to explain to Chuntang that these things suddenly appeared in the house?
Although her appetite is twice or three times that of an ordinary little lady, she can't finish all the food...
Xu Nuo was depressed and washed up at the same time.
Then she took chopsticks and started eating. When Chuntang knocked on the door outside, she just said that she didn't need breakfast today. Go directly to Yingcheng Yuan to say hello.
One bite, two bites...
Several plates quickly emptied.
She didn't expect that Xiao Yuan had such good cooking skills and could cook simple dishes better than others, which made her so full that she couldn't walk.
After eating so much food, it wasn't that she was overeating, it was just that the food was too delicious.
After Xu Nuo finished eating, he quickly cleaned the battlefield, opened the door, and took Chun Tang and Qi Qi to Ying Chengyuan.
Chuntang looked at Xu Nuo's back in confusion. I always feel that today’s ladies are different from those of the past. I wanted to ask several times, but I swallowed the words as soon as they reached my lips.
Xu Pingqi had already arrived when Xu Nuo arrived at Yingcheng Courtyard. He was still wearing a white robe with cross-collar collars today. Her hair was neatly tied with brocade, her face was serious, and she was sitting in front of the food table with her hands folded.
"Mother, Erlang." Xu Nuo bowed down and saluted Mr. Lu. Staring at the food table left for her, she silently shed tears in her heart.
"Liuniang, do you want to watch the Jinshi parade today?" Lu asked with a faint smile after letting Xu Nuo stand up.
Make a promise. He immediately became energetic and said: "I naturally want to go. I want to see how many heads these Jinshi have and how powerful they are."
She has always been curious about the scene of Jinshi parading through the streets. But I just went to see the unveiling of the results yesterday, and asking to see the Jinshi parading today is really not in line with the status of a boudoir woman today.
Now if Mrs. Lu asks about this, she will definitely agree.
Lu glanced at her. Looking at the faint joy on her face, how could he not know what she was thinking.
He thought to himself: Master actually understands Liu Niang so well.
"It's getting more and more skinny. When the time comes, you will go to Wanxiang Tower with Erlang and Ye Shiwu to watch the Jinshi Parade. There are many people on the road today, so go there early and wait. If you wait for a long time, use more breakfast to avoid it. I'm hungry." After Mrs. Lu said to Xu Nuo, she immediately waved someone to bring breakfast.
Xu Nuo immediately became anxious and said: "Mom, my child has had breakfast in Mingjin Pavilion, there is no need to go to my child's bed."
As soon as the promise came out, Chuntang and Qiyue, who were standing by the screen, looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.
Qi Qi shook her head, and Chuntang looked back and stood up again.
Ye Qingchen came to the Xu family in a carriage. Today he was wearing a light green brocade robe, which made his already slender figure even taller. There was a dark green short scarf hanging around his waist.
This short flute originally belonged to Xu Pingyi. The last time they met, he played the song "Mountains and Flowing Waters". After hearing this, Xu Pingyi touched his palms and praised it, and wanted to give this flute to him.
Ye Qingchen naturally knew how much the Xiao Guan carved by Xu Pingyi was worth, and he also recognized that this jade was a top quality, and he was determined not to want it.
Later Xu Pingyi said: "This Xiao is given to you with conditions. The tea you gave to your father when you first came to Xu Mansion will also be given to me. I have been greedy for it since I drank it at my father's last time. If you don't give it to me, , I have to come to ask for it."
How could Ye Qingchen not know that the Xu family's tea was no worse than the Ye family's tea? Xu Pingyi didn't lack these teas at all. This was just an excuse.
Xu Pingyi insisted on sending it away, but Ye Qingchen had no choice but to agree.
After returning to Ye Mansion, he tried playing the instrument several times and found that this instrument was easier to play than the one he had been using for three or four years, so he wore it every day.
"Mr. Ye Shififteen has met Mrs. Xu Er." Ye Qingchen strode into the house, stopped and offered his regards to Mr. Lu.
"Jishiro is really handsome today. I won't waste your time anymore. If there is nothing else, let's leave now."
Lu said with a smile, making Ye Qingchen, who was originally serious, blush.
The three of them took two carriages to Wanxiang Tower.
Ye Qingchen and Xu Pingqi had never been here before, so they inevitably seemed restrained when they came in. Instead, they invited people in to order tea and sing songs in a familiar manner.
Seeing Xu Nuo's familiar look, the other two people naturally knew that she had been here before, but they didn't tell her.
"What music do you want to listen to?" Xu Nuo looked out the window. Seeing that there weren't many people outside, he asked for two more side dishes.
"Just be more elegant." As soon as Ye Qingchen finished speaking, a burst of fragrance rushed into his nose.
He turned around and saw a woman in pink walking towards her. Her slender eyes were filled with light. Her eyes swept over the three of them and finally stopped on Xu Nuo, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
After the woman came in, she saluted the three of them and said, "My name is Xin'er. I am playing music for the two husbands and ladies today. I wonder what music you three would like to hear?"
Although Xin'er is from the north, her voice has the softness of a Jiangnan woman.
Upon hearing the name Xin'er, Xu Nuo immediately thought of Hu Ling asking Miss Xin'er to play the music when she first came to Wanxiang Tower.
That time Miss Xin'er was always on the other side of the screen when she played the music, and never showed her face.
But why did you come here directly today?
"Just play whatever tune Miss Xin'er is good at," Ye Qingchen said.
"Here." Xin'er said nothing more, turned around and sat in front of the piano, her every move was gentle.
When she entered the room, she heard Ye Qingchen saying that he wanted to listen to elegant tunes, so she played "Three Plum Blossom Alleys" directly.
Nowhere is Wanxiang Tower better informed than here. She knew it as soon as the Ye family's carriage arrived.
The grandson of the Ye family finally came out after a month, so naturally she wanted to come over and see what kind of person he was that made every household rush to send invitations.
But, I didn’t expect that person to come too.
Why can she sit at the table with Ye Langjun!
And why did Xiao Langjun get hurt many times because of her. (To be continued)
