"No, this is against etiquette!" Princess An and the eldest daughter refused without thinking.
"Grandma... I just want to repay Lord Lanxuan for your kindness. If Lord Lanxuan hadn't saved me three years ago, I might not be able to see my grandmother now..."
Yu Xijiao lowered her head as she spoke, her long eyelashes falling weakly, feeling sad.
Princess An and the eldest princess couldn't help but feel soft and sighed in their hearts. From this aspect, Yu Lanxuan was really her granddaughter's benefactor.
"Grandma, I just went to take a look for Lan Xuan County Lord from a distance. If this person is really as good as grandma said, why is the marriage between the two families going so smoothly now? If he really cares about Lan Xuan
The county prince is deeply in love, and this time he was forced to do so, so his expression and demeanor must have changed, so I took a look at them from a distance on their way to get married."
Yu Xijiao pleadingly pulled the sleeves of An and the eldest princess and gently shook them.
"Just take a look?" Seeing her insistence, An and the eldest princess became a little relaxed.
"Really, just to see, I just want to see if this Prince Xinkang is really affectionate towards... Mr. Lanxuan County. Maybe he is someone who is seeking fame and reputation. Grandfather said that there are many like this in the world.
People who seek fame and reputation use other people's names to glorify them."
Yu Xijiao brought up her respected grandfather.
Princess An and the eldest princess still respected Yu Xijiao's grandfather. After hearing what she said and looking at her granddaughter's tender little face with a look of persistence, she had no choice but to agree.
"It's okay to go, but don't cause trouble. While you are still seriously injured, you can't make people think that the assassination is fake." Princess An and the eldest princess warned.
"Don't worry, grandma, I'm wearing a curtain hat so no one will notice." Yu Xijiao promised.
"Let Qin He follow you!" Princess An and the eldest daughter were still not at ease.
"Grandma, Aunt Qin is yours. Many people know that. If she follows Jiao'er, people will know that this person is Jiao'er." Yu Xijiao shook her hand and said.
A glimmer of light flashed under her eyes. It would be inconvenient for Aunt Qin to follow her. Grandma would know what she did when she went out this time, but not now, otherwise grandma would not let her go out...
"Well, you have to be more careful." An and the eldest princess thought for a while and felt that what she said was reasonable.
"Grandma, don't worry." Yu Xijiao assured An and the eldest princess again and again, and only then did An and the eldest princess agree.
I'll act according to the situation first, and then I'll apologize to my grandmother when I get back...
He took Qingyue with him in a very ordinary carriage, along with two small bags of copper coins that he had asked for from Aunt Qin, and two servant girls.
The carriage went out from the back door of Princess An and the eldest daughter, turned a corner and arrived on the street.
The carriage driver was ordered to go to an intersection, which was the only way to go from Zhengyuanhou Mansion to Xinkang Bo Mansion. The sedan chair of Zhengyuanhou Mansion would definitely pass by there when leaving.
When we arrived at the intersection, there were a lot of pedestrians. Everyone knew about the Zhengyuanhou Mansion. I heard that the Zhengyuanhou Mansion had changed its bride and married into the Xinkangbo Mansion, and many people came to watch the fun.
The dowry delivery team has passed, and everyone said that the sedan chair from Xin Kangbo Mansion was coming to pick her up.
There were so many people that Yu Xijiao had to get off the carriage and walked inside with Qingyue, finally stopping in front of a shop.
This is a kite shop. Not only are kites sold in the shop, but there is also a stall outside the shop, where various kites are placed. Because there are so many people, some have to be moved in. There is a waiter from the shop.
Come out and maintain order in front of the stall.
Also let the people around you disperse a little, don't affect their business, and don't overturn the stall where they place the kite. If the kite is damaged, let them pay several times the compensation.
This place has much fewer people than other places.
Qingyue helped Yu Xijiao come over with great difficulty, and then she stood still. The waiter standing in front of the stall started to chase people away: "Girl, this is where we sell kites. If you two don't buy it, go over there."
Stand back and don't crowd our kite."
The corner pointed by the waiter looked like you could actually pass people, but it didn't completely drive them away.
After hearing what he said, someone had already passed by. This area of the stall was originally more prominent than other places, and it was uncomfortable to squeeze in here. It even accidentally squeezed someone's kite.
"We want to buy a kite." Yu Xijiao didn't leave, stopped, pointed to the kite on the stall and said, "Can you take this off and show it to me?"
"Okay, Auntie, wait a minute." The waiter didn't expect that there was actually business, and he immediately became happy and diligently made way for a seat, "Girl, please come in first, you will be crowded over there."
Yu Xijiao nodded and leaned closer to the stall. Qingyue hurriedly followed.
The clerk had already neatly placed the kite that Yu Xi pointed at just now in front of her. It was a butterfly-shaped kite. "Girl, you have such good eyesight. This kite is the best and the biggest here. If you fly it
When you look up, you must be extremely beautiful."
"Girl, now is not a good time to fly a kite." Qingyue whispered.
The best time to fly kites is March and April. Although there are still people flying kites now, there are not many of them. The business of kites in shops has been average recently.
"Why is it not a good time? There is no good time or bad time to fly a kite. If you want to fly a kite, just pick a day when it doesn't rain and you can take people for a walk in the countryside. As long as you are in a happy mood, there is no such thing as
You have to pay more attention to other things." The clerk was also a good talker. When he saw Qingyue's dissent, he hurriedly laughed.
Seeing that Yu Xijiao didn't speak, although she couldn't see her face under the curtain, she looked like a daughter of a noble family. The most important thing for such a daughter is money.
So he said again: "Girl, look, this kite is so beautiful, and the butterflies on it are not ordinary butterflies."
"Is it possible that this butterfly is special about something?" Qingyue didn't believe it.
"Aren't you from Beijing?" the waiter asked.
Although Yu Xijiao also grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, she learned the rules very well and attached great importance to the rules of the capital. This was specifically requested by Princess An and the eldest daughter, so she didn't have any accent.
Although Qingyue couldn't hear it at ordinary times, she would still make some sounds when she spoke fast. Unlike Jingcheng, the guy was smart and he actually heard it right away.
"Our girl is from the capital." Qingyue rolled her eyes but did not finish her sentence.
"Since the girl is in the capital, she must know that this butterfly kite won the first prize this year, right?" the clerk asked with a smile.
Yu Xijiao was silent for a moment and replied: "White Stone Academy."
The waiter clapped his hands: "The girl is really from the capital, but she is too young to see Taishan. It is not the White Rock Academy Kite Competition. The girls of the White Rock Academy hold a kite competition every year. The most outstanding one this year is a kite competition."
Butterfly Kite.”
The more the guy talked, the more proud he became.
"I heard that the kite was made at home, not bought from outside." Yu Xijiao said calmly.
"It is true that the girl made it at home, but the things used are actually from our place. It was only after the help of our master chefs to adjust it that we succeeded. Otherwise, how could it be possible to soar into the sky? That girl got a
Excellent, it’s all thanks to our kites here, the butterfly kite now is specially made by our master master.”
"Same?" Yu Xijiao smiled.
"Yes, they are the same. They have been adjusted by the master and the materials used are the same," said the waiter.
"Then...why is there a pair that is different?" Yu Xijiao pointed at another butterfly kite and asked curiously.
"The other one is the master's own design. Although our master helped adjust it, he was afraid that others would think our master was incompetent, so he simply made a pair to let others see what our master is capable of."
The waiter's chest was beating loudly, showing his respect for his master.
"Then... let's wrap it up together!" Yu Xijiao smiled and looked in the direction of Xin Kangbo Mansion.
The bride-to-be...is here.
The first person to come on horseback was Chu Zihan. He was riding a horse in a bright red brocade robe. He didn't seem to have much of a smile on his face, but he still made the young girls around him exclaim shyly.
People around were talking a lot. Prince Xin Kangbo was indeed a handsome young man. It was a pity that something happened to the Lord of Lanxuan County whom he was originally going to marry. Now he had to marry the sister of Lord Lanxuan. Who knew that this person from Zhengyuan Hou Mansion
What kind of person is the third girl? Whether she is worthy of Prince Xin Kangbo is a matter of pity for Lanxuan County Lord, and it is also a pity for Prince Xin Kangbo.
The bright red sedan chair followed his horse, and there was a lot of excitement with playing and playing.
Looking at Chu Zihan riding on the horse, Yu Xijiao's long eyelashes fluttered twice. She raised her head and looked at Chu Zihan on the tall horse. The tiny stars in her eyes were like bloodthirsty. She clenched her hands tightly and let the sharp nails dig into her.
Palm.
"County Lord, Crown Prince Xin Kangbo is an excellent person. Everyone in the capital is envious of your marriage. If he were not the County Lord, who else in the world would be worthy of Crown Prince Xin Kangbo." Ning said to Yu Lanxuan with a smile.
"What my mother said is that Crown Prince Xin Kang has a deep love for his second sister. He thinks of her second sister whenever anything good happens to him. He is devoted to her wholeheartedly. All the daughters of aristocratic families say that second sister is very lucky." Yu Lanyan said.
Nowadays, these words are especially heard in the ears, but what is the reality? They not only harmed themselves, but also harmed their father and grandfather's family. The so-called "deep love" is actually a joke.
He suppressed the sarcastic smile on his lips, took a deep breath, let the blood in his eyes slowly recede, and then watched the group of people welcoming the bride move towards the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion.
Grandma sent Aunt Qin, and it really worked...
"Girl, if you like this pair, I'll give you a small kite, what do you think?" The waiter was just watching the fun, but now he started selling business enthusiastically again.
"Thank you very much, but this thread... I'm afraid it's not enough." Yu Xijiao lowered her head and looked at the kite in front of her.
"There must be enough thread. If the girl doesn't think it's enough, I'll give you some more. What do you think?" The man was very flattering when doing business.
I took out a few more balls of thread from the back.
"Is there any more?" Yu Xijiao smiled, a little embarrassed, "I'm not very good at flying kites. I'm afraid the string will be broken when the time comes. I'm afraid I won't have it for a while. Can you give me a few more strings? If it's not convenient to send more, I will
You can buy it. As for the small kite, I don’t want it. Just a few more skeins of string will be enough.”
The clerk looked at the two big kites, nodded, and returned to the store this time. After a while, he took out several large lumps of money: "Girl, I'll give these to you, is that enough?"
