Yandang Mountain is far from the capital. An hour and a half later, Chu Hanxiu and the others arrived.
As soon as they got off the carriage, not to mention He Lianjing, He Lianzheng and others who rarely went out, even Chu Hanxiu, who had lived in modern life for more than 20 years and had seen many famous mountains and rivers from film and television works, were fascinated by the scenery in front of him. Shocked.
Under the high blue sky, a strange and beautiful mountain peak stood among the low hills.
The vegetation on the mountain peak is green, and there are many unknown white flowers, which fall on Yandang Mountain like fine pearls.
Around the mountain peaks, flocks of flying birds are circling, and there is an endless stream of crisp or high-pitched bird calls.
Mrs. Hou, who got off the carriage while supporting her, waved to Chu Hanxiu: "Now you are the master of Zhuangzi, and we are all here as guests. See how we will be arranged later."
Chu Hanyun, who was standing next to her, frowned, "This Zhuangzi belongs to Hanxiu?!"
He knew that they were coming to the Hot Spring Village today, but what did Mrs. Hou say? This village actually belonged to Chu Hanxiu!
Aunt Wu who was next to Mrs. Hou smiled and said, "That's right. Young Master Hanxiu used a novel method to cure Mr. Hou's fever and took care of him all night. Madam specially found this village and gave it to Young Master Hanxiu to play with. .”
There is no need for such a good Zhuangzi!
Chu Hanxiu is learning to take care of the Hou Mansion from Madam Hou these days, and he knows very well what Madam Hou has in her hands. He has taken a liking to this hot spring village early on, and wants to get it in his own hands later, and then go to San The prince has his own backyard, and it is also a decent dowry.
He was actually given to Chu Hanxiu by Mrs. Hou.
Chu Hanyun, who has always wanted everything good since he was a child, thinks he is nobler than Chu Hanxiu, a commoner brother, and feels unhappy: "Mom, you are too generous, just give me some gadgets, how can you give it to a Zhuangzi. "
His words made Mrs. Hou and He Lian Yao, who had been carried down by the servants, look at him.
After being poked by Aunt Zhao secretly with her finger, Chu Hanyun realized that she shouldn't have said this, and said with a smile: "Mother, Hanxiu, don't think too much, I just... don't think I will come to Kyoto again in the future. It would be a waste to put a Zhuangzi here."
Mrs. Hou came back to her senses, looked at Chu Hanxiu and said: "So, we may let Hanxiu meet a suitable young man in Kyoto. If it can be done, you two brothers can get together from time to time in the future. ”
Chu Hanxiu didn't expect that the topic would get to the point of whether or not she would marry, and who she would marry, so she quickly said: "Let's go up the mountain quickly, go to the village, rest for a while and have lunch, and then think about it carefully after dinner. "
In fact, what Chu Hanyun said just now still made the atmosphere a bit weird. After all, everyone is not a fool. No one noticed that his tone when he said those words was not as caring for Chu Hanxiu as he added later.
Helianze walked to Chu Hanxiu, took his hand and said to Mrs. Hou and Chu Hanyun: "Mother, sister-in-law, the servants in Zhuangzi have brought chariots. You can go up in the chariots." , Zhuangzi is still halfway up the mountain, you don’t usually move around much, your legs and feet will definitely feel sore when you walk up there.”
The servants of Zhuangzi got the news last night and were waiting here early this morning. Several chariots were waiting there.
Mrs. Hou looked at the concubine in the backyard: "You monkey, don't you want to sit in the chariot?"
Helianze smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed, "We play juju and shuttlecock in the backyard every day, and we want to see the scenery along the way."
Mrs. Hou glanced at the picturesque Yandang Mountain and said: "Maybe I haven't left the Hou Mansion for a long time. I will walk with you and let the chariot follow behind. If you can't walk any further, ride again."
"Okay," Helianze was very happy to see that his aunt was in a better mood than she was at home. He turned to his husband-in-law, "Sister-in-law, what about you, do you want to come with us?"
Chu Hanyun now disliked Chu Hanxiu, and decided to wait until there was no one else to give him Zhuangzi's deed. Moreover, he didn't want to go with a bunch of concubines, and he didn't know why his mother didn't dislike it so much: "No, I think the carriage is a bit too bumpy, so I want to go to the village to rest early."
"Mother, come behind them."
Chu Hanyun saluted Mrs. Hou, and then looked at He Lian Yao: "Master Hou, please come with me. The wind is strong on the mountain, and your body cannot tolerate any mistakes."
He Lian Yao sat high on the chariot. He had not been to such a wild and interesting place for a long time. He also wanted to see the scenery on the mountain road. He said to Chu Hanyun: "You go to Zhuangzi to rest first, and I will follow you." Mother and the others."
Chu Hanyun: "!!!"
Chu Hanyun felt that this Zhuangzi was in conflict with him, and nothing he wanted to do when he came here came to his liking.
He didn't say much, pretending to care about He Lianyao for a few words, then got on the shoulder chariot carried by Zhuangzi's servant and went up the mountain road.
Chu Hanxiu would not let him affect his mood. He raised his hand and took the lead on the mountain road: "Up the mountain!"
He smiled with crooked eyebrows. He was obviously a slender and beautiful brother, but he was more energetic than anyone else on the mountain road. Mrs. Hou felt relieved when she saw it. She pointed at him and He Lian Yao on the shoulder chariot and said, "Look at you!" Brother, I don’t know where you can get so much energy.”
He Lian Yao also saw that He Lian Jing, He Lian Zheng, He Lian Ru, and his concubine He Lian Mei, who were still a little restrained, had been led by him to an old pine tree not far away. He didn't know what he said. What, it made a few people smile and pull out pine needles and throw them at him.
He said to his mother: "He is good at kickball, so he has good physical strength."
"Have you ever seen him play juball?"
"Well, they also went to the ball game that the second prince held a few days ago. He and his third brother played."
When talking about this matter, Qingran couldn't help but said to Madam Hou: "Madam, you haven't seen that Young Master Hanxiu is so good at kicking the ball. He kicked the ball from a long distance. The romantic eyes are gone, and the frame next to the romantic eyes is not even touched."
"At the end of the game, Young Master Hanxiu made a magic kick. He actually supported the shoulders of his team and kicked the ball in high and high. At that time, many people on the court had their hands red. .”
"Also," Qingran glanced at Mr. Hou and said, "At that time, he deliberately found trouble and asked Master Ze to play football with him. Young Master Fang Yumingfang from Dingguogong's residence said some bad words to Mr. Hou. After Young Master Xiu won the competition, he said that the Marquis guarded the gate and protected all the people, and his merits will last for thousands of years and benefit the present generation. Young Master Fang is not worthy of mentioning the name of the Marquis."
Mrs. Hou paused for a moment and looked at Chu Hanxiu, who was looking at the bird's nest on the pine tree with Helianze and others not far ahead: "He is a good boy."
"It was he who asked me to come to Zhuangzi with you today. He wanted me to relax with you."
She suddenly asked He Lianyao: "I intend to tell him to the second son of your third uncle's family. What do you think?"
He Lian Yao lowered his eyelashes and did not look at the figure that looked like the scorching sun. "He has a right idea. Mother has her own intentions. Just ask him."
"It's just that Shaoqing's cousin is four years older than him -"
Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Hou said with a smile: "You are only four years older. You are still seven years older than Hanyun. You are not doing well now."
Indeed, this point of view was not convincing at all. He Lianyao suddenly thought that not only was he seven years older than his husband, but the age gap between him and Chu Hanxiu was even greater, a full eight years...
Suddenly, He Lian Yao, who realized that he was calculating the age gap with Chu Hanxiu, frowned and suppressed these thoughts.
