: The Etiquette

After a little rest, Yu Chen went to Duan Chang's study under Lian Ying's leadership.

Lianying was sent to Qin'an by the Duan family from the capital at that time. She and Lianshuang were both children of Duan's family, so she took them with her.

After hearing the "in", Yu Chen took two steps, but saw that Lian Ying did not leave, but stood aside and acted as a waiter. She should have to wait for her to come out like this.

Yu Chen sighed lightly and did not go in immediately. Instead, he said to Lian Ying first: "I have nothing to do here and you don't need to wait. I have remembered that you can go back to the yard first."

Lian Ying hesitated for a moment, and according to the rules, she should have waited.

Yu Chen walked forward with his foot, "According to the rules, you are my maid, you should listen to me."

Lian Ying looked straight and bent down to leave.

With a creaking sound, the exquisitely carved wooden door was pushed open. Duan Chang was facing the door, holding a fold in his hand and sat upright in front of the desk. At this moment, his expression was solemn and his eyebrows were slightly flickering. He should be dealing with matters.

Seeing this, Yu Chen did not say hello, closed the door gently and stood by waiting, staring at his toes slightly lowered his eyebrows and eyes, not listening, not asking, and not watching at will.

After about a stick of incense, Duan Chang finished all the remaining pieces and looked up at Yuchen. Seeing this, his expression calmed down, "Here is here." Then he pointed to the cushion beside him with the piece, and said slowly: "Sit down, don't be restrained when you get home."

Yu Chen still bowed to Duan Chang according to the etiquette and called out his grandfather. He walked aside and sat on the cushion. His movements were neither fast nor slow, his posture was calm and square, and his expression was neither humble nor arrogant. Duan Chang looked at his face but nodded in his heart.

It’s great that you can’t even get any wrong rules.

First, I was concerned about problems such as having been used to living in Qin'an over the years, how about my old illness, why didn't I come back two years ago, and then I changed my mind, "What happened on the road?"

Instead of asking why he came back like Duan Qingrong, he asked directly what was going on, and he asked and stated it every time, and he could immediately show the best and lowest level of things.

Yu Chen thought about it for a moment, and from the time he was involved in the murder case in Qin'an County, to the time he met bandits on the way, and when he met Cui Shexi, he told Duan Chang in full.

Duan Chang knew her situation very clearly, so there was no need to hide anything, let alone anything to hide.

"Is that boy Zhan Xiao injured?"

"yes."

Duan Chang looked at Yu Jin, "You should still be wondering why you wrote to you and said you would wait for that boy Zhan Xiao to pick him up?"

The embers are still called yes.

Duan Chang said leisurely: "It was the Censor Zhan who came to ask for it."

Yu Chen knew that the Censor Zhan in Duan Chang's words was Zhan Shuyun's father Zhan Ming, but what did Censor Zhan ask for such a thing? This is not an errand, nor a good thing.

"Is it to repay my grandfather's favor?"

Several possibilities flashed through the thoughts of Embers, but in the end I still felt that it was more reasonable to have favors.

"Friendship?" Duan Chang snorted.

Duan Chang answered the question irrelevantly, "Qingwu, you have passed your seventeenth birthday, and when you pass the New Year tomorrow, you will be eighteen in the void."

He slowly sorted out the notes on the table, "As usual, a woman was in a 15-year-old house, and most of them got married around the 15th, and after the 15th, she got married. But you were over 17th, but you still didn't discuss the marriage, so someone was thinking about it."

Now that Yu Chen understood, Censor Zhan was thinking about it.

So this trip is considered a disguised blind date?

Yu Chen felt a little funny, "Mr. Zhan looks down on me, on the contrary, he should have a very bad impression of me."

Duan Chang refused to comment, and the conversation changed again, "Your and the wedding ceremony should be made up."

"It's gone long ago, there's no need to make up for it."

It's past, it's past, nothing to make up for.

Duan Chang didn't think so, "My Duan family's girls' hairpin is indispensable. You have been living a long life and working hard, so you can take advantage of this opportunity to make you appear in the capital."

He said, "You will still live in the capital in the future."

That is, it was not a negotiation.

"But it is up to my grandfather."

"Yes." Duan Chang waved to Yuchen, "You have an old disease, and the road is bumpy, so I placed you in Qin'an, but I'm fine?"

Yu Chen obediently spread his palms out as Duan Chang's movements, and a scar stretched across his palm, which was a different color from the flesh next to him.

Turn up the sleeves slightly, and there was also a scar on your wrist.

The two scars are parallel. Judging from their size at this time, you can see how deeply the wound would have hurt back then.

"There are scars."

Yu Chen smiled, "It's just a scar, a small matter."

Duan Chang asked again: "Has the tendons grown?"

Yu Chen clenched his fists at Duan Chang and opened them, "It's okay to do something ordinary."

Duan Chang stared at Yu Jin's hand for a moment, then looked at her face again, still with a faint smile, as if the broken tendons of his hand were really a trivial matter for her.

"It's just a small matter."

Duan Chang was speechless.

Just a small matter? How is that possible?

——

The New Year is a traditional day. During the New Year, the whole house is full of joy, and even the full moon is happy all day long, looking at it strange everywhere.

Ember asked the full moon, and the full moon scratched her head, "Does it take for happiness?"

"It's the New Year."

Yuanyue was puzzled, "Aren't everyone like this during the New Year? Shouldn't you be happy to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and to have a new beginning?"

Yuchen asked, "I stand today and look back at yesterday. It is the same as returning to New Year's Eve on the New Year. Why can't it be called "godial to the old and welcome the new?"

Yuanyue was stopped by questioning. She racked her brains for a long time, but she didn't understand it. Instead, she became more and more confused. She could only say: "Everyone is like this during the New Year, everyone is happy, so she will be happy!"

Yu Chen smiled and waved his hand to let the full moon go, letting her continue to work.

Seeing the full moon happily holding paste and posting the word "Fu" and Spring Festival couplets in the courtyard, Lian Shuang helped, while Lian Sakura swept the courtyard, and were busy welcoming the New Year, and were all very happy.

But the embers didn't feel anything. For her, the New Year was no different from usual.

On New Year's Eve, she stood at the entrance of the alley, watching the children jumping and cheering. After the New Year, she watched people come and go to greet New Year's greetings, everyone was smiling happily, and she was also laughing and looked very happy.

The New Year passed without any turmoil, and it was already warm in the blink of an eye.

In March of spring, the wind brings warmth, the green mountains connect with water, and the fragrance is strong; the children travel with the same boat, their clothes compete with each other, and their smiles are empty.

Duan’s mansion is particularly lively today, and it’s nothing else, because this lady Duan’s mansion held a wedding ceremony today.

The lights are decorated with colorful colors, the guests are filled with guests, and the pearls and jade are piled up, but that is the case.

The noise outside penetrates the space into the room, and still cannot stir up the stagnant water in the room.

Yuchen sat in front of the couch with only a middle-clothed shirt, with his collar half open and exposed his left shoulder. Lian Shuang frowned and wiped the suppurated wounds carefully.

The wounds were treated, the embers were gathered together, and the pink clothes were worn by Lianshuang and Lianshang, with cloud patterns outlined and pearls on them. They were not too ostentatious, but not too simple, just right, and very beautiful.

Stepping on the same color, scribbling my eyebrows carefully to decorate my pale face, and finally covered up my pale face, and I looked full of glory.

"Do everything." She pointed at the bloody bandage that had just been replaced.

Yuchen took two steps, thought for a while and stopped, saying, "Get a sachet, it should have a stronger taste."

Lian Shuang and Lian Ying worked on their own, and the division of labor was clear and orderly. Lian Shuang put away the medicine box, put the bandages and wrapped them in the back room. Lian Ying took out a sachet with exquisite embroidery from the cabinet and handed it over to Duan Yujin to put it on.

When everything was done, the host outside started singing and shouting. Lian Ying picked up the curtain, and the ember raised a smile at the right time and walked out slowly.

The courtyard had been laid out long ago, and the middle road was set aside. The guests at the banquet were separated on both sides, mixed with men and women, but the wife and ladies of the aristocratic family accounted for the majority.

Everyone talked about embers in private.

Some people say that because this lady Duan was weak, a monk from a wandering house later approved his order. This lady Duan had to rest in a place where the incense was strong before she was wearing a hairpin to cleanse her body. Therefore, this lady Duan was sent to rest in Putuo Temple in Qin'an, and worshiped Buddha every day. She was not allowed to talk about marriage before she was wearing a hairpin.

Some people also say that Miss Duan was frightened and invaded her body, causing weak symptoms. Taoist priest You Fang said that he should use evil to control evil, and finally pointed to the West. The Duan family sent Miss Duan to Qin'an for so many years. Now it was only seventeen that they had a gift because they removed the qi of the evil.

There are many different opinions.

But the statement is not important, unless it is related to one's own interests, no one cares about it.

People are more concerned about the results.

As a result, Duan Ge’s daughter no longer lives in the mouths of the people in the capital and begins to move in front of others.

Duan Qingwu is weak and is seventeen years old, and he has not discussed his marriage... Well, he is an older girl waiting to marry into the boudoir.
