Graceful spring color
Chapter 114 Half Cousin
Zhe Zhi smiled narrowly: "Thanks to the girl."
Wuyi Lane is not far from West Street. Zhizhi's driving was not as slow and steady as Li Xiaobao's driving. Xie Fengyue's stomach was churning along the way, and it was not easy to reach Lian Mansion.
After waiting for Xie Fengyue to enter the house, he entered the main hall door and saw Ye Yuanwen there, and even the general who was too busy to touch the ground was also there.
She didn't wear a curtain and hat today. She was just asking for help. If she kept it secretive, she would appear to be dishonest.
For a moment, her leg didn't know whether to move or retreat.
Ye Yuanwen inexplicably gave Xie Fengyue a sense of danger.
"Miss Xie is here~" Lian Qihai was sitting in the main seat and saw Xie Fengyue at a glance.
However, Lian Jun and Ye Yuanwen turned sideways and did not see her hesitant figure for the first time.
Xie Fengyue could only bite the bullet, follow the steps of a standard lady, and follow the housekeeper into the main hall.
Ye Yuanwen raised his eyebrows: "Miss Xie?"
Lian Jun on the side smiled awkwardly, but didn't say anything.
Not knowing why, General Lian narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Miss Xie is here to see Jun'er too? Do you also know that he will return to Qian'an tomorrow?"
Thanks Fengyue.
She has always been eloquent, but she really has nothing to say in front of the upright General Lian. He always has a skill that can make people silence.
Lian Jun smiled and tried to smooth things over: "I decided to go back in a hurry. I haven't informed the girl yet. She must have come here for other reasons today."
Lian Qihai: "What's the matter?"
Thanks Fengyue.
She was not used to such a straightforward opening, which made her look very stupid for having to wash up and change into new clothes today.
"I came today to ask for something from my uncle." She had to follow the local customs and changed her title to something more familiar.
Lian Qihai sat in the main seat with a golden sword and said cheerfully: "My dear niece, just tell me."
"I will take my uncle to Shengjing in the near future to find my uncle's mother and cousin. I also hope that my uncle can borrow some people to escort them. Although the journey is not far, the world is not peaceful now."
"Okay!"
Xie Fengyue's lowered head suddenly raised, with doubts in his eyes that couldn't be resolved, ah? Do you agree? She had prepared a basket of good words and was waiting for Lian Qihai to refuse before adding more fuel to the fire. Unexpectedly, he agreed directly.
"I sent this silly son of mine to escort you back to Qian'an. He has to go back anyway. Just supervise him on the way so that he doesn't fall into his old habits and cause a lot of trouble for me. I'm the boss. , and you have to chase after his butt and rush to wipe it for him."
What Xie Fengyue said was another joke.
However, Lian Jun was not happy when he heard this: "What do you call an old problem? I just care about the beauty. Besides, I used to be as good-looking as those girls. They enjoyed the glory and wealth with me, and they also had a beautiful husband. No matter what, they are enjoying the blessing."
In fact, Lian Jun's words were not crude at all.
The customs of the gentry in the north and south of Qian'an were quite different.
The northern gentry, headed by the Langya Wang family, focused on the family heritage and talents, while the southern gentry mainly paid attention to the shell. Even Shengjing, the capital of Qian'an in the south, followed suit.
They are used to looking at people's faces. The court does not select people for virtue, but for good looks.
If there is a letter of recommendation from an aristocratic family or a contemporary scholar, a person from a poor family with outstanding appearance can find an important position in the government. If you are less handsome, even if you are a direct descendant of an aristocratic family, you will be hidden because you do not conform to the current trend. .
This was originally something that was first developed by the gentry, but now it has been carried forward by the royal family. Emperor Zhou loved Prince Zhou only because he had a stunningly beautiful face. When he thought of the stunning beauty, Xie Fengyue thought of another person.
Gongzi Yan.
He was born into a noble family in the north, and his wrist ability concealed his unique appearance. As a man, he has a high and straight nose, which is very delicate. His eyes are also thick and stunning, but his lines are sharp and have sharp angles everywhere, as are his lips. The same thin and delicate, extremely aggressive, inexplicably making people's hearts beat faster when they look at each other.
Consciously thinking too much, Xie Fengyue quickly shook out the image of Young Master Yan gently waving his jade fan and smiling at the corners of his mouth.
She thought about it for a while and felt that it was not impossible to follow Lian Xiaolangjun to Shengjing. Except that it might be inconvenient to wash up along the way, there were all advantages.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Lian."
Lian Jun didn't expect that Xie Fengyue would say this after waiting for a long time, and he was immediately unconvinced: "Do you also think that I am flirting with women?"
Xie Fengyue smiled and didn't answer.
This smile made Lian Jun stop laughing, and he touched his face sadly.
Xie Fengyue didn't notice these subtle things, but Lian Qihai always paid attention to his son.
He coughed dryly and said carelessly: "You must abide by yourself on the road and put the overall safety first. When you arrive in the capital, remember to ask your mother to write to me. She has been angry with me for a month or two. I will give it to you." She didn’t answer any of the letters she wrote.”
The more he spoke, the more Lian Qihai seemed aggrieved, and his voice became much softer: "How could I accept the beauties sent by His Majesty? They came from Shengjing one by one, just like eggplants beaten by frost, and they were still wet. Not as pretty as her hair."
Xie Fengyu didn't want to hear these family secrets, so he immediately bowed and left.
Naturally, there were people who thought the same as her. After she left, Ye Yuanwen also said a lot of beautiful words and followed Xie Fengyue's footsteps.
"Miss Xie?"
Xie Fengyue stopped and asked, "What's going on, Magistrate Ye?"
Ye Yuanwen did not wear an official uniform today, but wore a white robe and regular clothes. He looked very much like a young man from an aristocratic family. He put his hands together and bowed: "The general even refused the farewell banquet. Can Ye please invite the girl to have tea with you today?" "
Xie Fengyue naturally did not want to have anything to do with this person. He was about to leave, and it was not her style to stir up trouble for no reason.
She immediately refused.
"Miss Xie, but where is the daughter of the Xie family from Chen County? My mother is also the daughter of the Xie family. After all, I am also half a cousin of the girl."
Xie Fengyue's words came to her lips and she swallowed them back.
She is not such a blind person. Ye Yuanwen obviously wants to argue with her. He has come up with some distant cousin. The Xie family in Chen County has lasted for hundreds of years and has married hundreds to hundreds of girls from various places. , the relationship is complicated, and he doesn't know which side of the relationship is far off, but he can use it to make excuses. To put it bluntly, he doesn't want her to refuse.
The two of them took carriages to Liuheju and went straight to the private room on the second floor.
Xie Fengyue got straight to the point and asked, "Cousin Ye, what's the matter?" She wasn't going to follow him through the twists and turns of the nobles, so today she learned how to hit a straight ball with the general, which she could put to good use.
It was obvious that Ye Yuanwen's expression froze for a moment, so he backed away from the servants and looked at Zhe Zhi again.
Nowadays, people's customs are civilized, especially for the children of aristocratic families, sharing a box is not considered immoral at all. Xie Fengyue is too lazy to argue about it, and gestures for Zhi Zhi to go out too.
