The rich and noble peasant daughter
Chapter 122 You Like Me, Watch the Fun
Chapter 122 You Like Me, Watch the Fun
Neither of them had a shy temperament, and they were indeed tired. After washing their faces, they went to lie down.
Yun Xi and Yun Yao went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for tonight.Because there are quite a lot of girls here today, she will have dinner alone with these little girls.Yun Xi can be regarded as showing her housekeeping skills, and she racked her brains to recall many of the dishes above.
For dim sum alone, there are pancakes, shrimp cakes, leek boxes, and white cloud slices; dishes include lion head, lychee meat, crab soup, three delicacies dragon and phoenix balls, lotus leaf chicken, pine mushroom agar-agar, fragrant mud Tibetan treasures, etc...
Every dish is definitely not available outside. Yun Xi felt that she had almost wiped out all the recipe books in her previous life, but Du Zhou happily asked her to write down all these dishes, so as to expand the Du family's menu.After every dish was ready, Yunyao and Ayu were also waiting for guests at the door.Yun Xi, the birthday star, was left in the house by them.
Wang Biyu was the first to come and visited Yun Xi's greenhouse, followed by Wang Qiantong.These two girls with the same surname are obviously familiar, and they got together and started talking.
After half of the people had arrived, Yun Xi asked people to call Yan Ling and Mao Yiyun to get up.
When the two came out after rearranging their makeup, all the guests she invited had come.After seeing Dai Yanling, many girls were very surprised. They didn't expect that this eldest lady from the state capital actually came to celebrate Yun Xi's birthday.
As soon as Dai Yanling opened her mouth, she did not hide her close relationship with Yun Xi, "What about the food? Serve it up quickly. I brought Yiyun all the way here. If it doesn't taste good, I will punish you."
Yun Xi smiled and said: "I'm afraid that after I serve them all, you will all be full, so how can you give me a performance for this birthday star?" You don't need to bring a gift, just perform a show. Dai Yanling also thinks this mode is very interesting.
What she said in her mouth would not really make these young ladies hungry, and she would serve all the dishes soon.For today, she also specially ordered that kind of table that can be rotated. It was the first time for everyone to see this kind of table. In addition, there were girls around the same age who had common topics, and they turned around one by one. I had a great time playing, and temporarily abandoned the so-called rules.
Yun Xi thinks this is pretty good, they are all at a fresh age, why should they be like a tight string, as long as the rules are generally correct.
It's just that in the order of the programs, everyone has some disputes.
Yun Xi took out a lottery container and said, "Let's draw lots directly, I will draw last." The lottery is the fairest.
Everyone thinks this is very good, and each person takes one.Yun Yao was not lucky, she had to take the lead, and Yun Xi was not much better, she happened to be in the last place.
Yun Yao was very happy, and said: "I finish the performance early, and I can have dinner earlier."
Foodie Wang Qiantong nodded in agreement. The dishes made by Yun Xi first conquered everyone in terms of their appearance. The color and aroma are complete. I haven't tasted the taste yet, so I don't know.But looking at Dai Yanling's expectant eyes that glanced at the food from time to time, he knew it was definitely not bad.
Before the show started, everyone was too embarrassed to chopsticks.
Both Yunyao and Ayu were wearing emerald green dresses of the same color, and the bottom of the skirts was embroidered with water patterns, which folded and flashed when they walked around.As for Yun Xi, she was wearing a modified fishtail train.The part above the knee is slightly tightened, making her look slim, slender and beautiful, and the part below the knee is spread out, which does not affect walking at all. When walking, the dress is flying, which is really moving.
Looking at their outfits, everyone has silently decided in their hearts to make a set to wear when they go back.
As the first performers, Yunyao and Ayu naturally attracted everyone's attention. Yunyao said crisply: "Today what Ayu and I are performing is a trick."
This trick, which is only a small magic trick in modern times, appeared in front of them, and the dove emerged from the hat that was originally empty. Such a scene greatly shocked these young ladies who had never seen it before.
The few people who were eating dim sum even forgot to eat it, and opened their mouths slightly with disbelief on their faces.
The corners of Yunyao's mouth curled up, her smile revealing a little cunning.While everyone was in the stage of shock, she and Ayu performed several performances one after another, such as "Coincidence of Two Numbers" and "Silver Ticket Turns White Paper", each of which dazzled everyone and surprised them at the same time.
Yun Xi was immediately surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan.
"How did this happen? It's amazing!"
"Yes, yes, sister Yunyao has mind reading skills, how could she guess the number I was thinking of?"
Yun Xi smiled without saying a word, hiding her achievements and fame deeply.
Dai Yanling said directly to her: "No, you have to teach me. You must have taught Yun Yao this." Her tone was sure, and she believed Yun Xi.
Yun Xi coughed, "We'll tell you the trick after everyone's performances are over."
Only then did everyone give up besieging Yun Xi, and each sat back in their seats, discussing while eating delicious food.From the speed at which the food on the table decreased and the frequency with which everyone picked their chopsticks, it can be seen how deeply the taste of Yun Xi's dishes is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The most melancholy is Tang Shurong, a slightly plump woman, who basically eats while her eyes are red.
Yun Xi looked at her with some confusion, "What's the matter, don't you like to eat?" But judging by the speed at which this girl picks her chopsticks, she should really like to eat.
Tang Shurong's father is a Juren. Although he is not an official, he is also a first-class figure in the county. She shook her head, wanting to cry without tears, "My mother said that I am fat and I have to lose a little. But, everything in your house is good tasty."
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Instead of losing weight, you might as well exercise more."
Tang Shurong pursed his lips, "My father won't let me ride a horse. He is afraid that I will fall off. He doesn't even dare to let me play on the swing." This girl is also favored at home, so she has a childish air.
Yun Xi said: "For example, climbing a mountain and taking a few more laps in the garden are all okay. By the way, why don't I ask you to skip rope when the time comes! Jumping rubber bands is also fine!" These little girls stayed at home all day , no wonder the ancient ladies often fell ill, and problems were more likely to occur during childbirth.
Tang Shurong only heard one important point, and said happily: "That is, I can let go and eat?"
Yun Xi was speechless for a while, and said, "Let's eat!"
As for Dai Yanling, she never had any troubles in this regard, and she never stopped eating food.
Weight loss has always been a topic of concern to women, and everyone unconsciously turned their ears to listen to Yun Xi and Tang Shurong talking.At the same time, the programs are going on one after another.Many girls showed their best talents, some played the piano, some painted while reciting poems, and some wrote congratulatory poems on the spot.However, there are also those who have rehearsed well before, but they are too nervous to say a word when they come on stage, and there are also performance storytellers who get stuck halfway through their speech and forget their words.
These small jokes actually made the atmosphere more lively, and everyone laughed so hard.These are everyone's thoughts, and it can be seen that they have spent a lot of time and effort in preparing them. It's too late for Yun Xi to like them, so there's no way she might dislike them.
When it was Dai Yanling's and Mao Yiyun's turn, they said, "Let's change clothes", and then ran away.
Everyone was left looking at each other in blank dismay, and they looked forward to it even more.
After waiting for a while, the two came out, but their attire surprised everyone.
Dai Yanling turned out to be a man in men's clothes. She was originally heroic, but in men's clothes, she was really a heroic young man, which caused many girls to boo.As for Mao Yiyun, her clothes are much softer, which doesn't match her previous style.
Dai Yanling spoke, but it was an operatic libretto.It was only then that Yun Xi realized that these two were cameo singers, and she sat down and watched their performance with great interest.
Although the two of them were not professional, they performed well, and they sang a play that was popular in the state capital recently. The story was a bit similar to Hua Mulan and Rebirth Fate that Yun Xi had seen in her previous life.The heroine's father is a high-ranking official who was framed by treacherous officials. Except for the heroine, everyone else was thrown into prison.The others were afraid of the power of treacherous ministers, even though they knew her family was wronged, they did not dare to do anything.In order to wash away her grievances, the heroine disguised herself as a man, took the imperial examination, and became the number one scholar. In the process, she also fell in love with the prince.Finally, with the help of the prince, she successfully met the emperor, presented evidence, cleared up her grievances, and finally got married with the prince's lover.
What Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun sang was a scene in which the prince discovered the identity of the heroine and the two showed their hearts.
Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun, although their singing voices were not particularly outstanding, their sincerity and sincerity made the girls below teary-eyed, and they were extremely moved.
Yun Xi could only feel that the teardrops of these girls were too low. When she turned her head and saw Yun Yao's eyes were red, the corners of her mouth twitched. It seemed that she was the only one who was abnormal.However, she also admitted that Yan Ling's performance in this show was very exciting, and she really had intentions.
After the two of them finished singing, he poured tea for them himself.
Dai Yanling said proudly, "If you don't drink tea, serve me a glass of wine!"
The Du family had received a lot of fine wine during the previous annual ceremony, Yun Xi took out a jar of wine from the storeroom, and filled the glasses for the two of them personally, "Please."
Dai Yanling acted like a dandy, and gulped down her hand with a smile, then looked at her with sparkling eyes, "Won't the birthday man have a drink?"
In her opinion, Yun Xi must be the type who can't drink enough, so she wants to see her beg for mercy.
Yun Xi smiled slightly. Her current physical fitness is more inclined to her previous life. Although it is not an exaggeration to say that she will not be drunk after a thousand glasses, five glasses of liquor are not a problem, let alone this kind of sake with a low alcohol content.She also poured herself a glass and drank it all in one go without her face turning red at all.
Dai Yanling opened her eyes wide in surprise, "It's amazing."
The other ladies also followed suit, and they all came to toast Yun Xi. After this round, Yun Xi drank at least eight glasses.She smelled of alcohol, but she was still very energetic. On the contrary, the cheeks of the ladies toasting were flushed, and even Yunyao and Ayu secretly drank a few sips.
Now they are really convinced, this is the real drinker.
It was finally Yun Xi's turn on the show, and everyone was looking forward to what kind of wonderful show Yun Xi, who always brings surprises to everyone, would put on.
Yun Xi straightened her slightly messy hair, smiling, "I'm going to change my clothes."
For diving sleeve dance, you must change into a special skirt.
After Yun Xi came out, everyone looked at the long sleeve in Yun Xi's hand.Such a dress has never been seen before.
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Sister Ya'er, would you like to play a piece for me?" Kang Ya'er played the piano very well, she was the best among all the women present.
Everyone also saw that Yun Xi was going to dance, but they didn't know what kind of dance she was going to dance.
Kang Ya'er laughed and said, "I'm determined to do what I want, but I dare not ask for it." Then she picked up her qin and sat not far away.
When the piano was played, Yun Xi also danced along with it.As light as a frightened bird, as graceful as a dragon swimming.That water sleeve is like a part of Yun Xi's body, it can be retracted freely, strength and beauty have directly reached an indescribable sense of harmony, if it is too much, it will lose its softness, if it is too small, it will be too stiff, everything is just right .
Flying and spinning, the snow is light, and Yan Ran sends You Long in shock.
The flung out and retracted sleeves fascinate people's eyes, and the beauty like flowing clouds and flowing water easily immerses people in it.
In the end, Kang Ya'er even forgot to play the piano, and just stared blankly at Yun Xi dancing the sleeve dance.It's just that no one will laugh at her gaffe, because their performance is not much better.
After the dance was over, Yun Xi raised her head and smiled at everyone. At this moment, all the girls with different styles in the room were reduced to her background.
The surrounding area was so quiet that the sound of needles falling could be heard, and the cool night breeze gently touched the sleeves, Yun Xi blinked and looked at everyone.
At least give her some reaction.
After a while, the applause came one after another, and everyone remembered that they had to applaud!Only continuous applause can express their excitement.
"Yun Xi, what kind of dance are you dancing? It's so beautiful! I've never seen such a beautiful dance!"
"Yes, yes, those sleeves are so beautiful when you swing them."
"Is this dance easy to learn?"
Yun Xi was a little dizzy from the questions. She sat down in her seat and explained with a smile, "This is the water sleeve dance."
Tang Shurong's father is a Juren, and he often held her on his lap and taught her to read when she was a child, so she also developed the habit of loving reading.The word Shuixiuwu immediately touched her nerves.
"Isn't this said to have been lost for more than 300 years?"
Yun Xi smiled, "I don't know if my dance is the same as that time, I just read some records and choreographed according to my own understanding." She couldn't tell her past life experience, so she could only embrace it with a cheeky face. This credit.
The others were full of admiration, no matter whether it was the lost water sleeve dance or not, just looking at the brilliance of the dance, they knew that it was definitely not much worse than the lost dance.Being able to see such a dance at Du's house, it is not in vain for them to come.
After tonight, even the girl who was still a little bit unconvinced admired Yun Xi very much.With outstanding looks and outstanding talents, what Du Yunxi lacks is nothing more than an identity.However, her talent allowed them to ignore the difference in status and interact with her on an equal footing.Du Yunyao's magic also left a lot of traces in their hearts.
The three programs that impressed them the most tonight were Yun Xi's water sleeve dance, followed by Yan Ling's reverse singing and Yun Yao's and A Yu's magic tricks.
Coupled with these delicacies that are not even comparable to the signature dishes of Mudanlou, it can be said that the trip is worthwhile.
The food prepared by Yun Xi was eaten up by everyone in an unladylike manner, and even the jar of wine that was brought out was eaten up.But before the group of Miss Jiao went home, Yun Xi still brought hot water, let them wash their hands and faces first, to wash off some of the alcohol, and prepared hangover soup.
After drinking the hangover soup, she sent the group of girls out. The families of these young ladies are all high-end in Fenghuang County, so they were naturally accompanied by guards and maidservants when they went out.Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun stayed at Du's house for one night and went back the day after tomorrow.It’s not easy to come out for a trip, and I’ll have some fun before leaving.
Mao Yiyun also gave her a package of rouge powder.
Yun Xi said: "Didn't I say that there are performances, so there is no need to give gifts?"
Mao Yiyun winked at her, "This is not a birthday gift for you, it's my first visit, so I don't want to give it to your family empty-handed. Our family's rouge and gouache are all made of those petals and plants. If you add messy things, it will sell well. If you like it, if you cook a few more delicious things for me in the past two days, I will be grateful."
Yun Xi understood, this is a so-called natural product.After all, it was Mao Yiyun's kindness, so she accepted it.
Yun Xi took a look and found that she really divided the rouge powder into three parts, and posted a list outside to indicate which part was for whom.Yun Xi gave them both Du Zhou's and Yun Yao's shares. Du Zhou was really happy to receive this gift, and was even more surprised to find that it was the mark of the Mao family.
"This Mao family's rouge gouache is the best in our Chuzhou, and it is also well-known in the whole country. I heard that such a box costs several taels of silver." How could she be willing to spend so much money on this cosmetic product? s things.
Yun Xi smiled, "If you like it, we'll go to Mao's to buy it at that time. Yiyun said that he will give us a discount."
Du Zhou put away the rouge and gouache lovingly, "These are enough for me to use for a year."
How could she have imagined that the Du family could get to know so many important figures before, and she felt joyful in her heart, but also felt that such a dreamlike life was like stepping on clouds, lacking in reality.
Yun Xi could see her thoughts, and knew that the aunt had suffered too much in the past. She held her hand, and her soft words seemed to promise her, "Our family's life will definitely get better and better."
For her 14th birthday, Mrs. Du Zhou personally made two sets of new clothes for her. Recently, she took some gifts and went to Aunt Wang to learn from her. She wanted to learn more skills and let the girls at home wear them. The clothes I made, I don’t feel ashamed when I go out.
For this peaceful and peaceful day, Yun Xi was extremely grateful and cherished.
Give the rouge to the little girl Yunyao, and tell her not to be too excited to cause harm, at least wait until she has time to teach her how to use it.Yun Xi walked out of Yun Yao's room, and instead of going back to her own room immediately, she went to the ancestral hall.
She held a candlestick in her hand, illuminating the dark ancestral hall.
What you can see are the god tablets one by one, and there is a quiet and strange taste in the night.If you are a timid person, if you stay alone in the ancestral hall, you will be scared to death.But Yun Xi was very calm in her heart, without any emotions like fear.Compared with ghosts, the human heart is always more terrifying.
She looked at Yu Qingran's and Du Yiming's tablet, the two are side by side, these are her biological parents of this body.
She lit the incense, solemnly knelt down and kowtowed.
The couple's real daughter is gone, but she's still here.She has to bear this kindness.
After offering incense to them, Yun Xi stood there for a while, dazed.The parents in the previous life were bitten into zombies when the end of the world came. Before Yun Xi could see them, they died under someone else's bomb, leaving no bones left.No matter in her previous life or after time travel, she doesn't seem to have any fate with her parents.Fortunately, there are still uncles and aunts who have always looked after her as their own daughter.
After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Yun Xi came back to her senses, turned around and left the ancestral hall with a firm back, as if she wanted to completely cut off the last trace of nostalgia for her previous life.
She stayed in the ancestral hall for a long time, and when she came out, almost everyone in the Du family had fallen asleep, and the candles were all blown out.
The night in April was a bit cold, Yun Xi walked slowly, enjoying the rare tranquility.
Suddenly she felt something in her heart, raised her head, and she saw Yun Shen standing there.He has a casual and leisurely posture, dressed in white, spotless, as bright as the moonlight in the sky, and as cold as the snow in winter.
The four eyes met, Yun Shen came down from the roof, holding a pot of peonies in his hands, but when Yun Xi saw the peonies, Yun Xi felt terribly distressed, the leaves were sparse, and there were even a little black spots, which made her look listless of.
Peony!Nice peony!Who on earth raised such a thing!
Yun Xi even thought she heard Peony's wailing.
She raised her head and looked at Yun Shen. For some reason, Yun Shen seemed to have lost his usual calmness, and his expression was a little more nervous. He opened his mouth, and his voice was hoarse, "This is my birthday present for you." .”
It seemed that after he opened his mouth, he regained his original composure, "I originally wanted to buy some pots of peonies for you. Later, thinking about it, it would be more meaningful to plant them yourself as a birthday gift."
Yun Xi's eyes fell on the half-dead peony, and she said, "Then you chose this pot?" Shouldn't you choose the best one?Being able to raise Peony like this, she convinced him!
Yun Shen's face, which was carved like white jade, showed a few strands of embarrassment, "The others are all dead." Afterwards, his tone became natural, and he directly stuffed Peony into her arms.
Yun Xi came back to her senses, hurriedly caught the peony in the corner, and let out an "oh".
In other words, this person bought a lot of pots of peonies, but he raised them to death, leaving only the half-dead pot, and gave it to her, right?In fact, this Yunshen must be the legendary plant killer!
She raised her head, Yun Shen's pupils were still pitch black, but there was a tumbling inside... maybe it was anxiety?
She suddenly smiled, her smile was like a breeze blowing away the dark clouds, showing her unique charm at this moment, her voice was soft, piercing into people's ears, like the singing of a sea monster, luring inadvertent tourists, "Yun Shen, you like me."
Her voice is sure.
If you don't like it, why do you believe so much that she won't betray him?If she didn't like it, why would she buy peonies and take care of them herself because of her joke that she likes peonies-although the result is a bit bleak.If he didn't like it, why would this man who is as proud as the moon in his bones be nervous because of her.
She didn't know how he fell in love with her during the number of times she and he stretched out their hands, but this did not prevent her from understanding it.
"you……"
Before she finished speaking, Yun Shen had already disappeared in front of her eyes. This was the first time he had disappeared so quickly on his own initiative.
Yun Xi looked at the air in front of him speechlessly, he couldn't be shy, could he?I always feel that this style of painting is not right for Yun Shen.
Now there is no chance to say the words that I originally refused.She doesn't know if she will like him in the future, but at least her feelings for him are just friends now.
She looked down at the pot of peonies, stretched out her fingers, and lightly touched the few leaves.The dying peony leaves stretched out again, as if expressing to her the pleasure of falling into her hands, and seemed to accuse the plant killer.If this peony can speak, I am afraid that the content of the complaint will definitely make those who hear it feel sad and those who see it cry.
With Yun Xi's current level of abilities, logically speaking, she wouldn't be able to sense such rich plant emotions.Who made Miss Mudan's resentment so deep that it almost turned into substance.
She let out a soft sigh, and the eyes that fell on Peony were very gentle, "Since it is in my hands, then I will take good care of you."
Yun Xi went straight back to the room with the peony in her arms and placed it on the window sill, allowing Miss Peony to bathe in the moonlight.
When she woke up the next day, she found that there was an extra note in the flower pot. Yun Xi picked up the leaf, and there was Yun Shen's handwriting on it: Happy birthday.The third requirement: I do not accept rejections that are not face-to-face.
Yun Xi didn't expect that this person would actually apply the third request to this one, and black lines almost appeared all over his head.Is this necessary?Almost like a child.What Yun Shen meant was that unless he refused in person, he would not admit it, let alone accept it.
Well, the problem is, if she wants to refuse, someone has to appear in front of her.
She almost wanted to grind her teeth, if he had the courage to put a note, he would have the courage to appear in front of her!
Angrily, she threw the note into the wastebasket, thought about it, and finally put a note on it, with only one line written on it: Thank you for your gift.
After Yun Xi came back at night, the note on the flowerpot had disappeared, probably Yun Shen took it away.
On the other hand, after Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun had almost rested, they quickly packed their luggage and went back to the state capital. They also asked Yun Xi and Yun Yao to go and play with them when they had time. The two also took Yun Xi away Hard-working beef jerky.For the sake of the rare meeting between the two of them, Yun Xi endured it.
After her 14th birthday, her life returned to the original calm, but sometimes she would receive posts from friends in Fenghuang County.
After a month, most of the roads in Fenghuang County have been repaired. After all, there is money, there is no shortage of people, and the people are particularly active and motivated, so the efficiency is naturally not low.
The roads in the village were repaired faster, and now Yun Xi felt much smoother when walking on them.At least on rainy days, she no longer has to worry about accidentally stepping into a mud puddle and splashing all over her body.The stele was also erected, and Du Yifu's name was very conspicuous on it, which made Du Yifu, a big man who was usually not very emotional, put on a smiling face these days.
Because the road in the village was built faster than expected, most of the stones were dug from the mountains, and the money spent was not much.As a result, after the road was repaired, there was still some leftovers.
Yun Xi said to Tao Tiangong: "Everyone has worked hard to build the road these days, so it's better to distribute the remaining money to these people. The reason why the road can be repaired so quickly is that they didn't spare any effort."
Tao Tiangong thought about it, this way he could still reap everyone's gratitude, and with a wave of his hand, he distributed the money.Naturally, everyone in the village praised it.Based on this calculation, plus the final subsidy, the wages of these people during this period are equal to 35 Wen a day, which is more than the [-] Wen paid for road construction in the city.
Those who regretted staying at first felt that they were smart and did not learn from Du Yilian.
Having tasted such a sweetness, the villagers are more supportive of some of Tao Tiangong's actions, and this support is sincere, not superficial, so everyone is happy.The only person who is not happy is Du Yilian who has no reputation and less money.
When he heard this, he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Du Hong looked indifferently at her husband's face, which was swollen like a pig's liver. She had completely given up on this husband, and the only thing in his heart was that dirty little slut outside. The woman had already entered the door and snatched her place.
Fortunately, she still has such a good daughter as Yunyue!
Du Hongshi looked at Yunyue's stomach, as if looking at a golden mountain.Holding a bowl of medicine in her hand, she said softly to her daughter, "Yue'er, come and drink this bowl. This is a fertility charm that my mother specially asked for you, and it will definitely make you a boy in one fell swoop. Mrs. Zhang, at first glance, it is the fate of giving birth to a daughter."
Du Yunyue's face has turned pale due to morning sickness these days, and her face has lost a lot of weight.She smelled the medicine and felt sick even more.
It's just that the desire to have a son in her heart overwhelmed everything, she still endured it, took the medicine, and frowned.
yes!She had to give birth to a boy!
As long as she gives birth to a boy, she has a chance to flop.As for the nightmare back then, because those people never appeared in front of her again, Du Yunyue only thought that they were people who could not be messed with, and they had already been dealt with, and she was relieved because of this.The child in her womb must belong to Yu Hao, not those people.
Her gaze fell on Du Hongshi, whose hair had turned gray a lot in the past year, and she said, "Mother, don't worry. When I enter Yu's house, those who bullied us, I will definitely make them pay the price."
She thought of Yun Xi, and her eyes turned cold.
Du Hongshi took the empty bowl, "Mother believes in you. Mother has been praying to the Bodhisattva every day recently, that Mrs. Yu Zhang will give birth to a daughter. Your sharp belly must be a boy!"
Not far away, looking at the mother and daughter daydreaming, Du Zhang just wanted to sneer.Now that the Zhang family knows about the two of them, how could their plan come true.
The Zhang family even gave Du Zhangshi three taels of silver for a month to let her watch them carefully.You don't have to do anything, you can get two or three, and Mrs. Du is very concerned about this matter.Her third son was separated from her because of a promiscuous widow, and she could not count on him to support her in the future. Although the eldest son was filial, he still had some grievances because of the previous incident.
Du Zhang is no longer as stupid as before, giving all the money he saved to the third family, but keeping it for himself as future pension money.Over the past few months, she has been able to save three taels of silver every month, so it seems that Du Yunyue and the others are more concerned.
……
On April 27, Zhang Yuan gave birth to a daughter.
The Zhang family posted a lot of posts during the three baptisms, which shows that they care about this granddaughter very much.
In addition, it was held in Zhang's family, and people in the county were reading Yu's novels, saying that Yu Hao was no different from being married.To Yun Xi's surprise, she also received a post from the Zhang family asking her to baptize her three times.
Yun Xi's heart skipped a beat, could it be that the Zhang family is going to attack Yu Hao at this time?She also became more and more looking forward to it, and directly said to the servant who sent the post: "Don't worry, I will definitely arrive on time when the time comes."
On April [-]th, Yun Xi really took Yun Yao to watch the fun, and the maid of the Zhang family welcomed her in. The gift Yun Xi gave was a cute rabbit costume, which Du Zhou sewed by herself.
The Zhang family invited quite a few people this time, and Yun Xi saw that the garden was full of people at a glance.The wife of the Wang family saw her and waved to her to let her pass.A few days ago, Tian Wang Biyu invited her to play there, and Yun Xi and Wang Ji Pharmacy had monthly income from Qianhe Ointment, so Mrs. Wang was very familiar with her.
She looked at Yun Xi with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Yun Xi smiled, "Miss Zhang's family used to be a regular customer of my store, and we are familiar with each other. Maybe the Zhang family took this into account, so they invited me over." What she didn't say was that the Zhang family had just He also took her to see Zhang Yuan who was in confinement.Zhang Yuan's complexion looked quite good, and she also said that she would visit her shop after confinement.
Mrs. Wang looked at Yunyao and said with a smile: "Girl Yunyao is here too, the girls from your Du family are really more beautiful than the other."
This girl from the Du family can make money, and she is also good-looking. I don't know who will be cheaper in the future.If Mrs. Wang's sons hadn't already married wives and had children, she might have been moved too.
They were having fun on one side, but on the other side, Mrs. Yu immediately pulled her face down when she saw Yun Xi and Yun Yao approaching.
She was very dissatisfied with the fact that the Zhang family had held this sanitation.It's just a girl's movie, why make it so big.This girl will always be splashed water in the future, and Zhang Yuan is really useless, and she didn't give birth to a son.But the three baptisms were all paid by the Zhang family themselves, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only admit it.
Who would have expected that the Zhang family would invite Du Yunxi, a celibate person, over here. No one in Fenghuang County knew that she had been discredited because of this girl.Although her son was no longer obsessed with Du Yunxi, she still felt angry when she saw Yunxi, so she felt that the Zhang family did it on purpose, deliberately watching her jokes.
The Zhang family doesn't take her mother-in-law seriously. When Zhang Yuan is confinement, she must pick up those mother-in-law's rules and teach her a good lesson.
Mrs. Yu was gnashing her teeth with hatred, her face turned dark.What frustrates her the most is that Du Yunxi is dressed better than her. It is obvious that life has skyrocketed.What's more annoying than someone you hate getting better and better.
In stark contrast to her, the Zhang family loved their granddaughter very much, and both of them were smiling from ear to ear.Seeing this, the others couldn't help but despise Mrs. Yu.
What about having a girl?The girl is also his own granddaughter.
Yun Xi chatted very intimately with Mrs. Wang, and suddenly felt the malicious gaze cast on her sensitively.
She turned her head, one was Mrs. Yu - this is understandable, ignore it.
The other...is actually Du Hongshi.
Hey, the Zhang family actually invited Du Hongshi together this time, it seems that there will be a lot of excitement.
Du Hongshi withdrew his gaze, but his heart was filled with uncontrollable excitement, the Bodhisattva really has eyes, it was not in vain that she begged for several months, and she really gave birth to a girl, God really helped Yunyue.
After waiting for a while, the three-washing ceremony officially began.The Zhang family specially invited the most famous auspicious grandma in the city to preside over the ceremony. A series of complicated ceremonies were dazzling.Zhang's Xisan specially invited the chef from Mudan Building to the banquet, and Yun Xi ate a lot of dishes that she sold to the Zeng family.
When adding gifts, both Yun Xi and Yun Yao put down a tael of silver.
The auspicious grandma uttered a series of auspicious words. Looking at the treasures piled up in the basin, her face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.
To Yun Xi's surprise, the Du Hong family also added a handful of copper coins, which was so generous that it made people look sideways.Others didn't know that Du Hong's throwing away the money was purely because she remembered that she was born to be a useless girl, so she was happy to throw money away.
After the third baptism was over, Zhang Yuan’s mother, Mrs. Zhang, dropped a big bomb on the spot, “Today I invite everyone, besides attending my granddaughter’s third baptism, there is also an announcement, that is, my daughter Zhang Yuan is about to make peace with Yu Hao."
Does anyone play Onmyoji like me?Yesterday, one of my friends came out of Ibaraki Doji, the other out of the demon sword, and the other out of the green lantern. I didn't even have a cherry blossom demon, so I cried!
(End of this chapter)
Neither of them had a shy temperament, and they were indeed tired. After washing their faces, they went to lie down.
Yun Xi and Yun Yao went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for tonight.Because there are quite a lot of girls here today, she will have dinner alone with these little girls.Yun Xi can be regarded as showing her housekeeping skills, and she racked her brains to recall many of the dishes above.
For dim sum alone, there are pancakes, shrimp cakes, leek boxes, and white cloud slices; dishes include lion head, lychee meat, crab soup, three delicacies dragon and phoenix balls, lotus leaf chicken, pine mushroom agar-agar, fragrant mud Tibetan treasures, etc...
Every dish is definitely not available outside. Yun Xi felt that she had almost wiped out all the recipe books in her previous life, but Du Zhou happily asked her to write down all these dishes, so as to expand the Du family's menu.After every dish was ready, Yunyao and Ayu were also waiting for guests at the door.Yun Xi, the birthday star, was left in the house by them.
Wang Biyu was the first to come and visited Yun Xi's greenhouse, followed by Wang Qiantong.These two girls with the same surname are obviously familiar, and they got together and started talking.
After half of the people had arrived, Yun Xi asked people to call Yan Ling and Mao Yiyun to get up.
When the two came out after rearranging their makeup, all the guests she invited had come.After seeing Dai Yanling, many girls were very surprised. They didn't expect that this eldest lady from the state capital actually came to celebrate Yun Xi's birthday.
As soon as Dai Yanling opened her mouth, she did not hide her close relationship with Yun Xi, "What about the food? Serve it up quickly. I brought Yiyun all the way here. If it doesn't taste good, I will punish you."
Yun Xi smiled and said: "I'm afraid that after I serve them all, you will all be full, so how can you give me a performance for this birthday star?" You don't need to bring a gift, just perform a show. Dai Yanling also thinks this mode is very interesting.
What she said in her mouth would not really make these young ladies hungry, and she would serve all the dishes soon.For today, she also specially ordered that kind of table that can be rotated. It was the first time for everyone to see this kind of table. In addition, there were girls around the same age who had common topics, and they turned around one by one. I had a great time playing, and temporarily abandoned the so-called rules.
Yun Xi thinks this is pretty good, they are all at a fresh age, why should they be like a tight string, as long as the rules are generally correct.
It's just that in the order of the programs, everyone has some disputes.
Yun Xi took out a lottery container and said, "Let's draw lots directly, I will draw last." The lottery is the fairest.
Everyone thinks this is very good, and each person takes one.Yun Yao was not lucky, she had to take the lead, and Yun Xi was not much better, she happened to be in the last place.
Yun Yao was very happy, and said: "I finish the performance early, and I can have dinner earlier."
Foodie Wang Qiantong nodded in agreement. The dishes made by Yun Xi first conquered everyone in terms of their appearance. The color and aroma are complete. I haven't tasted the taste yet, so I don't know.But looking at Dai Yanling's expectant eyes that glanced at the food from time to time, he knew it was definitely not bad.
Before the show started, everyone was too embarrassed to chopsticks.
Both Yunyao and Ayu were wearing emerald green dresses of the same color, and the bottom of the skirts was embroidered with water patterns, which folded and flashed when they walked around.As for Yun Xi, she was wearing a modified fishtail train.The part above the knee is slightly tightened, making her look slim, slender and beautiful, and the part below the knee is spread out, which does not affect walking at all. When walking, the dress is flying, which is really moving.
Looking at their outfits, everyone has silently decided in their hearts to make a set to wear when they go back.
As the first performers, Yunyao and Ayu naturally attracted everyone's attention. Yunyao said crisply: "Today what Ayu and I are performing is a trick."
This trick, which is only a small magic trick in modern times, appeared in front of them, and the dove emerged from the hat that was originally empty. Such a scene greatly shocked these young ladies who had never seen it before.
The few people who were eating dim sum even forgot to eat it, and opened their mouths slightly with disbelief on their faces.
The corners of Yunyao's mouth curled up, her smile revealing a little cunning.While everyone was in the stage of shock, she and Ayu performed several performances one after another, such as "Coincidence of Two Numbers" and "Silver Ticket Turns White Paper", each of which dazzled everyone and surprised them at the same time.
Yun Xi was immediately surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan.
"How did this happen? It's amazing!"
"Yes, yes, sister Yunyao has mind reading skills, how could she guess the number I was thinking of?"
Yun Xi smiled without saying a word, hiding her achievements and fame deeply.
Dai Yanling said directly to her: "No, you have to teach me. You must have taught Yun Yao this." Her tone was sure, and she believed Yun Xi.
Yun Xi coughed, "We'll tell you the trick after everyone's performances are over."
Only then did everyone give up besieging Yun Xi, and each sat back in their seats, discussing while eating delicious food.From the speed at which the food on the table decreased and the frequency with which everyone picked their chopsticks, it can be seen how deeply the taste of Yun Xi's dishes is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The most melancholy is Tang Shurong, a slightly plump woman, who basically eats while her eyes are red.
Yun Xi looked at her with some confusion, "What's the matter, don't you like to eat?" But judging by the speed at which this girl picks her chopsticks, she should really like to eat.
Tang Shurong's father is a Juren. Although he is not an official, he is also a first-class figure in the county. She shook her head, wanting to cry without tears, "My mother said that I am fat and I have to lose a little. But, everything in your house is good tasty."
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Instead of losing weight, you might as well exercise more."
Tang Shurong pursed his lips, "My father won't let me ride a horse. He is afraid that I will fall off. He doesn't even dare to let me play on the swing." This girl is also favored at home, so she has a childish air.
Yun Xi said: "For example, climbing a mountain and taking a few more laps in the garden are all okay. By the way, why don't I ask you to skip rope when the time comes! Jumping rubber bands is also fine!" These little girls stayed at home all day , no wonder the ancient ladies often fell ill, and problems were more likely to occur during childbirth.
Tang Shurong only heard one important point, and said happily: "That is, I can let go and eat?"
Yun Xi was speechless for a while, and said, "Let's eat!"
As for Dai Yanling, she never had any troubles in this regard, and she never stopped eating food.
Weight loss has always been a topic of concern to women, and everyone unconsciously turned their ears to listen to Yun Xi and Tang Shurong talking.At the same time, the programs are going on one after another.Many girls showed their best talents, some played the piano, some painted while reciting poems, and some wrote congratulatory poems on the spot.However, there are also those who have rehearsed well before, but they are too nervous to say a word when they come on stage, and there are also performance storytellers who get stuck halfway through their speech and forget their words.
These small jokes actually made the atmosphere more lively, and everyone laughed so hard.These are everyone's thoughts, and it can be seen that they have spent a lot of time and effort in preparing them. It's too late for Yun Xi to like them, so there's no way she might dislike them.
When it was Dai Yanling's and Mao Yiyun's turn, they said, "Let's change clothes", and then ran away.
Everyone was left looking at each other in blank dismay, and they looked forward to it even more.
After waiting for a while, the two came out, but their attire surprised everyone.
Dai Yanling turned out to be a man in men's clothes. She was originally heroic, but in men's clothes, she was really a heroic young man, which caused many girls to boo.As for Mao Yiyun, her clothes are much softer, which doesn't match her previous style.
Dai Yanling spoke, but it was an operatic libretto.It was only then that Yun Xi realized that these two were cameo singers, and she sat down and watched their performance with great interest.
Although the two of them were not professional, they performed well, and they sang a play that was popular in the state capital recently. The story was a bit similar to Hua Mulan and Rebirth Fate that Yun Xi had seen in her previous life.The heroine's father is a high-ranking official who was framed by treacherous officials. Except for the heroine, everyone else was thrown into prison.The others were afraid of the power of treacherous ministers, even though they knew her family was wronged, they did not dare to do anything.In order to wash away her grievances, the heroine disguised herself as a man, took the imperial examination, and became the number one scholar. In the process, she also fell in love with the prince.Finally, with the help of the prince, she successfully met the emperor, presented evidence, cleared up her grievances, and finally got married with the prince's lover.
What Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun sang was a scene in which the prince discovered the identity of the heroine and the two showed their hearts.
Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun, although their singing voices were not particularly outstanding, their sincerity and sincerity made the girls below teary-eyed, and they were extremely moved.
Yun Xi could only feel that the teardrops of these girls were too low. When she turned her head and saw Yun Yao's eyes were red, the corners of her mouth twitched. It seemed that she was the only one who was abnormal.However, she also admitted that Yan Ling's performance in this show was very exciting, and she really had intentions.
After the two of them finished singing, he poured tea for them himself.
Dai Yanling said proudly, "If you don't drink tea, serve me a glass of wine!"
The Du family had received a lot of fine wine during the previous annual ceremony, Yun Xi took out a jar of wine from the storeroom, and filled the glasses for the two of them personally, "Please."
Dai Yanling acted like a dandy, and gulped down her hand with a smile, then looked at her with sparkling eyes, "Won't the birthday man have a drink?"
In her opinion, Yun Xi must be the type who can't drink enough, so she wants to see her beg for mercy.
Yun Xi smiled slightly. Her current physical fitness is more inclined to her previous life. Although it is not an exaggeration to say that she will not be drunk after a thousand glasses, five glasses of liquor are not a problem, let alone this kind of sake with a low alcohol content.She also poured herself a glass and drank it all in one go without her face turning red at all.
Dai Yanling opened her eyes wide in surprise, "It's amazing."
The other ladies also followed suit, and they all came to toast Yun Xi. After this round, Yun Xi drank at least eight glasses.She smelled of alcohol, but she was still very energetic. On the contrary, the cheeks of the ladies toasting were flushed, and even Yunyao and Ayu secretly drank a few sips.
Now they are really convinced, this is the real drinker.
It was finally Yun Xi's turn on the show, and everyone was looking forward to what kind of wonderful show Yun Xi, who always brings surprises to everyone, would put on.
Yun Xi straightened her slightly messy hair, smiling, "I'm going to change my clothes."
For diving sleeve dance, you must change into a special skirt.
After Yun Xi came out, everyone looked at the long sleeve in Yun Xi's hand.Such a dress has never been seen before.
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Sister Ya'er, would you like to play a piece for me?" Kang Ya'er played the piano very well, she was the best among all the women present.
Everyone also saw that Yun Xi was going to dance, but they didn't know what kind of dance she was going to dance.
Kang Ya'er laughed and said, "I'm determined to do what I want, but I dare not ask for it." Then she picked up her qin and sat not far away.
When the piano was played, Yun Xi also danced along with it.As light as a frightened bird, as graceful as a dragon swimming.That water sleeve is like a part of Yun Xi's body, it can be retracted freely, strength and beauty have directly reached an indescribable sense of harmony, if it is too much, it will lose its softness, if it is too small, it will be too stiff, everything is just right .
Flying and spinning, the snow is light, and Yan Ran sends You Long in shock.
The flung out and retracted sleeves fascinate people's eyes, and the beauty like flowing clouds and flowing water easily immerses people in it.
In the end, Kang Ya'er even forgot to play the piano, and just stared blankly at Yun Xi dancing the sleeve dance.It's just that no one will laugh at her gaffe, because their performance is not much better.
After the dance was over, Yun Xi raised her head and smiled at everyone. At this moment, all the girls with different styles in the room were reduced to her background.
The surrounding area was so quiet that the sound of needles falling could be heard, and the cool night breeze gently touched the sleeves, Yun Xi blinked and looked at everyone.
At least give her some reaction.
After a while, the applause came one after another, and everyone remembered that they had to applaud!Only continuous applause can express their excitement.
"Yun Xi, what kind of dance are you dancing? It's so beautiful! I've never seen such a beautiful dance!"
"Yes, yes, those sleeves are so beautiful when you swing them."
"Is this dance easy to learn?"
Yun Xi was a little dizzy from the questions. She sat down in her seat and explained with a smile, "This is the water sleeve dance."
Tang Shurong's father is a Juren, and he often held her on his lap and taught her to read when she was a child, so she also developed the habit of loving reading.The word Shuixiuwu immediately touched her nerves.
"Isn't this said to have been lost for more than 300 years?"
Yun Xi smiled, "I don't know if my dance is the same as that time, I just read some records and choreographed according to my own understanding." She couldn't tell her past life experience, so she could only embrace it with a cheeky face. This credit.
The others were full of admiration, no matter whether it was the lost water sleeve dance or not, just looking at the brilliance of the dance, they knew that it was definitely not much worse than the lost dance.Being able to see such a dance at Du's house, it is not in vain for them to come.
After tonight, even the girl who was still a little bit unconvinced admired Yun Xi very much.With outstanding looks and outstanding talents, what Du Yunxi lacks is nothing more than an identity.However, her talent allowed them to ignore the difference in status and interact with her on an equal footing.Du Yunyao's magic also left a lot of traces in their hearts.
The three programs that impressed them the most tonight were Yun Xi's water sleeve dance, followed by Yan Ling's reverse singing and Yun Yao's and A Yu's magic tricks.
Coupled with these delicacies that are not even comparable to the signature dishes of Mudanlou, it can be said that the trip is worthwhile.
The food prepared by Yun Xi was eaten up by everyone in an unladylike manner, and even the jar of wine that was brought out was eaten up.But before the group of Miss Jiao went home, Yun Xi still brought hot water, let them wash their hands and faces first, to wash off some of the alcohol, and prepared hangover soup.
After drinking the hangover soup, she sent the group of girls out. The families of these young ladies are all high-end in Fenghuang County, so they were naturally accompanied by guards and maidservants when they went out.Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun stayed at Du's house for one night and went back the day after tomorrow.It’s not easy to come out for a trip, and I’ll have some fun before leaving.
Mao Yiyun also gave her a package of rouge powder.
Yun Xi said: "Didn't I say that there are performances, so there is no need to give gifts?"
Mao Yiyun winked at her, "This is not a birthday gift for you, it's my first visit, so I don't want to give it to your family empty-handed. Our family's rouge and gouache are all made of those petals and plants. If you add messy things, it will sell well. If you like it, if you cook a few more delicious things for me in the past two days, I will be grateful."
Yun Xi understood, this is a so-called natural product.After all, it was Mao Yiyun's kindness, so she accepted it.
Yun Xi took a look and found that she really divided the rouge powder into three parts, and posted a list outside to indicate which part was for whom.Yun Xi gave them both Du Zhou's and Yun Yao's shares. Du Zhou was really happy to receive this gift, and was even more surprised to find that it was the mark of the Mao family.
"This Mao family's rouge gouache is the best in our Chuzhou, and it is also well-known in the whole country. I heard that such a box costs several taels of silver." How could she be willing to spend so much money on this cosmetic product? s things.
Yun Xi smiled, "If you like it, we'll go to Mao's to buy it at that time. Yiyun said that he will give us a discount."
Du Zhou put away the rouge and gouache lovingly, "These are enough for me to use for a year."
How could she have imagined that the Du family could get to know so many important figures before, and she felt joyful in her heart, but also felt that such a dreamlike life was like stepping on clouds, lacking in reality.
Yun Xi could see her thoughts, and knew that the aunt had suffered too much in the past. She held her hand, and her soft words seemed to promise her, "Our family's life will definitely get better and better."
For her 14th birthday, Mrs. Du Zhou personally made two sets of new clothes for her. Recently, she took some gifts and went to Aunt Wang to learn from her. She wanted to learn more skills and let the girls at home wear them. The clothes I made, I don’t feel ashamed when I go out.
For this peaceful and peaceful day, Yun Xi was extremely grateful and cherished.
Give the rouge to the little girl Yunyao, and tell her not to be too excited to cause harm, at least wait until she has time to teach her how to use it.Yun Xi walked out of Yun Yao's room, and instead of going back to her own room immediately, she went to the ancestral hall.
She held a candlestick in her hand, illuminating the dark ancestral hall.
What you can see are the god tablets one by one, and there is a quiet and strange taste in the night.If you are a timid person, if you stay alone in the ancestral hall, you will be scared to death.But Yun Xi was very calm in her heart, without any emotions like fear.Compared with ghosts, the human heart is always more terrifying.
She looked at Yu Qingran's and Du Yiming's tablet, the two are side by side, these are her biological parents of this body.
She lit the incense, solemnly knelt down and kowtowed.
The couple's real daughter is gone, but she's still here.She has to bear this kindness.
After offering incense to them, Yun Xi stood there for a while, dazed.The parents in the previous life were bitten into zombies when the end of the world came. Before Yun Xi could see them, they died under someone else's bomb, leaving no bones left.No matter in her previous life or after time travel, she doesn't seem to have any fate with her parents.Fortunately, there are still uncles and aunts who have always looked after her as their own daughter.
After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Yun Xi came back to her senses, turned around and left the ancestral hall with a firm back, as if she wanted to completely cut off the last trace of nostalgia for her previous life.
She stayed in the ancestral hall for a long time, and when she came out, almost everyone in the Du family had fallen asleep, and the candles were all blown out.
The night in April was a bit cold, Yun Xi walked slowly, enjoying the rare tranquility.
Suddenly she felt something in her heart, raised her head, and she saw Yun Shen standing there.He has a casual and leisurely posture, dressed in white, spotless, as bright as the moonlight in the sky, and as cold as the snow in winter.
The four eyes met, Yun Shen came down from the roof, holding a pot of peonies in his hands, but when Yun Xi saw the peonies, Yun Xi felt terribly distressed, the leaves were sparse, and there were even a little black spots, which made her look listless of.
Peony!Nice peony!Who on earth raised such a thing!
Yun Xi even thought she heard Peony's wailing.
She raised her head and looked at Yun Shen. For some reason, Yun Shen seemed to have lost his usual calmness, and his expression was a little more nervous. He opened his mouth, and his voice was hoarse, "This is my birthday present for you." .”
It seemed that after he opened his mouth, he regained his original composure, "I originally wanted to buy some pots of peonies for you. Later, thinking about it, it would be more meaningful to plant them yourself as a birthday gift."
Yun Xi's eyes fell on the half-dead peony, and she said, "Then you chose this pot?" Shouldn't you choose the best one?Being able to raise Peony like this, she convinced him!
Yun Shen's face, which was carved like white jade, showed a few strands of embarrassment, "The others are all dead." Afterwards, his tone became natural, and he directly stuffed Peony into her arms.
Yun Xi came back to her senses, hurriedly caught the peony in the corner, and let out an "oh".
In other words, this person bought a lot of pots of peonies, but he raised them to death, leaving only the half-dead pot, and gave it to her, right?In fact, this Yunshen must be the legendary plant killer!
She raised her head, Yun Shen's pupils were still pitch black, but there was a tumbling inside... maybe it was anxiety?
She suddenly smiled, her smile was like a breeze blowing away the dark clouds, showing her unique charm at this moment, her voice was soft, piercing into people's ears, like the singing of a sea monster, luring inadvertent tourists, "Yun Shen, you like me."
Her voice is sure.
If you don't like it, why do you believe so much that she won't betray him?If she didn't like it, why would she buy peonies and take care of them herself because of her joke that she likes peonies-although the result is a bit bleak.If he didn't like it, why would this man who is as proud as the moon in his bones be nervous because of her.
She didn't know how he fell in love with her during the number of times she and he stretched out their hands, but this did not prevent her from understanding it.
"you……"
Before she finished speaking, Yun Shen had already disappeared in front of her eyes. This was the first time he had disappeared so quickly on his own initiative.
Yun Xi looked at the air in front of him speechlessly, he couldn't be shy, could he?I always feel that this style of painting is not right for Yun Shen.
Now there is no chance to say the words that I originally refused.She doesn't know if she will like him in the future, but at least her feelings for him are just friends now.
She looked down at the pot of peonies, stretched out her fingers, and lightly touched the few leaves.The dying peony leaves stretched out again, as if expressing to her the pleasure of falling into her hands, and seemed to accuse the plant killer.If this peony can speak, I am afraid that the content of the complaint will definitely make those who hear it feel sad and those who see it cry.
With Yun Xi's current level of abilities, logically speaking, she wouldn't be able to sense such rich plant emotions.Who made Miss Mudan's resentment so deep that it almost turned into substance.
She let out a soft sigh, and the eyes that fell on Peony were very gentle, "Since it is in my hands, then I will take good care of you."
Yun Xi went straight back to the room with the peony in her arms and placed it on the window sill, allowing Miss Peony to bathe in the moonlight.
When she woke up the next day, she found that there was an extra note in the flower pot. Yun Xi picked up the leaf, and there was Yun Shen's handwriting on it: Happy birthday.The third requirement: I do not accept rejections that are not face-to-face.
Yun Xi didn't expect that this person would actually apply the third request to this one, and black lines almost appeared all over his head.Is this necessary?Almost like a child.What Yun Shen meant was that unless he refused in person, he would not admit it, let alone accept it.
Well, the problem is, if she wants to refuse, someone has to appear in front of her.
She almost wanted to grind her teeth, if he had the courage to put a note, he would have the courage to appear in front of her!
Angrily, she threw the note into the wastebasket, thought about it, and finally put a note on it, with only one line written on it: Thank you for your gift.
After Yun Xi came back at night, the note on the flowerpot had disappeared, probably Yun Shen took it away.
On the other hand, after Dai Yanling and Mao Yiyun had almost rested, they quickly packed their luggage and went back to the state capital. They also asked Yun Xi and Yun Yao to go and play with them when they had time. The two also took Yun Xi away Hard-working beef jerky.For the sake of the rare meeting between the two of them, Yun Xi endured it.
After her 14th birthday, her life returned to the original calm, but sometimes she would receive posts from friends in Fenghuang County.
After a month, most of the roads in Fenghuang County have been repaired. After all, there is money, there is no shortage of people, and the people are particularly active and motivated, so the efficiency is naturally not low.
The roads in the village were repaired faster, and now Yun Xi felt much smoother when walking on them.At least on rainy days, she no longer has to worry about accidentally stepping into a mud puddle and splashing all over her body.The stele was also erected, and Du Yifu's name was very conspicuous on it, which made Du Yifu, a big man who was usually not very emotional, put on a smiling face these days.
Because the road in the village was built faster than expected, most of the stones were dug from the mountains, and the money spent was not much.As a result, after the road was repaired, there was still some leftovers.
Yun Xi said to Tao Tiangong: "Everyone has worked hard to build the road these days, so it's better to distribute the remaining money to these people. The reason why the road can be repaired so quickly is that they didn't spare any effort."
Tao Tiangong thought about it, this way he could still reap everyone's gratitude, and with a wave of his hand, he distributed the money.Naturally, everyone in the village praised it.Based on this calculation, plus the final subsidy, the wages of these people during this period are equal to 35 Wen a day, which is more than the [-] Wen paid for road construction in the city.
Those who regretted staying at first felt that they were smart and did not learn from Du Yilian.
Having tasted such a sweetness, the villagers are more supportive of some of Tao Tiangong's actions, and this support is sincere, not superficial, so everyone is happy.The only person who is not happy is Du Yilian who has no reputation and less money.
When he heard this, he almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Du Hong looked indifferently at her husband's face, which was swollen like a pig's liver. She had completely given up on this husband, and the only thing in his heart was that dirty little slut outside. The woman had already entered the door and snatched her place.
Fortunately, she still has such a good daughter as Yunyue!
Du Hongshi looked at Yunyue's stomach, as if looking at a golden mountain.Holding a bowl of medicine in her hand, she said softly to her daughter, "Yue'er, come and drink this bowl. This is a fertility charm that my mother specially asked for you, and it will definitely make you a boy in one fell swoop. Mrs. Zhang, at first glance, it is the fate of giving birth to a daughter."
Du Yunyue's face has turned pale due to morning sickness these days, and her face has lost a lot of weight.She smelled the medicine and felt sick even more.
It's just that the desire to have a son in her heart overwhelmed everything, she still endured it, took the medicine, and frowned.
yes!She had to give birth to a boy!
As long as she gives birth to a boy, she has a chance to flop.As for the nightmare back then, because those people never appeared in front of her again, Du Yunyue only thought that they were people who could not be messed with, and they had already been dealt with, and she was relieved because of this.The child in her womb must belong to Yu Hao, not those people.
Her gaze fell on Du Hongshi, whose hair had turned gray a lot in the past year, and she said, "Mother, don't worry. When I enter Yu's house, those who bullied us, I will definitely make them pay the price."
She thought of Yun Xi, and her eyes turned cold.
Du Hongshi took the empty bowl, "Mother believes in you. Mother has been praying to the Bodhisattva every day recently, that Mrs. Yu Zhang will give birth to a daughter. Your sharp belly must be a boy!"
Not far away, looking at the mother and daughter daydreaming, Du Zhang just wanted to sneer.Now that the Zhang family knows about the two of them, how could their plan come true.
The Zhang family even gave Du Zhangshi three taels of silver for a month to let her watch them carefully.You don't have to do anything, you can get two or three, and Mrs. Du is very concerned about this matter.Her third son was separated from her because of a promiscuous widow, and she could not count on him to support her in the future. Although the eldest son was filial, he still had some grievances because of the previous incident.
Du Zhang is no longer as stupid as before, giving all the money he saved to the third family, but keeping it for himself as future pension money.Over the past few months, she has been able to save three taels of silver every month, so it seems that Du Yunyue and the others are more concerned.
……
On April 27, Zhang Yuan gave birth to a daughter.
The Zhang family posted a lot of posts during the three baptisms, which shows that they care about this granddaughter very much.
In addition, it was held in Zhang's family, and people in the county were reading Yu's novels, saying that Yu Hao was no different from being married.To Yun Xi's surprise, she also received a post from the Zhang family asking her to baptize her three times.
Yun Xi's heart skipped a beat, could it be that the Zhang family is going to attack Yu Hao at this time?She also became more and more looking forward to it, and directly said to the servant who sent the post: "Don't worry, I will definitely arrive on time when the time comes."
On April [-]th, Yun Xi really took Yun Yao to watch the fun, and the maid of the Zhang family welcomed her in. The gift Yun Xi gave was a cute rabbit costume, which Du Zhou sewed by herself.
The Zhang family invited quite a few people this time, and Yun Xi saw that the garden was full of people at a glance.The wife of the Wang family saw her and waved to her to let her pass.A few days ago, Tian Wang Biyu invited her to play there, and Yun Xi and Wang Ji Pharmacy had monthly income from Qianhe Ointment, so Mrs. Wang was very familiar with her.
She looked at Yun Xi with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Yun Xi smiled, "Miss Zhang's family used to be a regular customer of my store, and we are familiar with each other. Maybe the Zhang family took this into account, so they invited me over." What she didn't say was that the Zhang family had just He also took her to see Zhang Yuan who was in confinement.Zhang Yuan's complexion looked quite good, and she also said that she would visit her shop after confinement.
Mrs. Wang looked at Yunyao and said with a smile: "Girl Yunyao is here too, the girls from your Du family are really more beautiful than the other."
This girl from the Du family can make money, and she is also good-looking. I don't know who will be cheaper in the future.If Mrs. Wang's sons hadn't already married wives and had children, she might have been moved too.
They were having fun on one side, but on the other side, Mrs. Yu immediately pulled her face down when she saw Yun Xi and Yun Yao approaching.
She was very dissatisfied with the fact that the Zhang family had held this sanitation.It's just a girl's movie, why make it so big.This girl will always be splashed water in the future, and Zhang Yuan is really useless, and she didn't give birth to a son.But the three baptisms were all paid by the Zhang family themselves, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she could only admit it.
Who would have expected that the Zhang family would invite Du Yunxi, a celibate person, over here. No one in Fenghuang County knew that she had been discredited because of this girl.Although her son was no longer obsessed with Du Yunxi, she still felt angry when she saw Yunxi, so she felt that the Zhang family did it on purpose, deliberately watching her jokes.
The Zhang family doesn't take her mother-in-law seriously. When Zhang Yuan is confinement, she must pick up those mother-in-law's rules and teach her a good lesson.
Mrs. Yu was gnashing her teeth with hatred, her face turned dark.What frustrates her the most is that Du Yunxi is dressed better than her. It is obvious that life has skyrocketed.What's more annoying than someone you hate getting better and better.
In stark contrast to her, the Zhang family loved their granddaughter very much, and both of them were smiling from ear to ear.Seeing this, the others couldn't help but despise Mrs. Yu.
What about having a girl?The girl is also his own granddaughter.
Yun Xi chatted very intimately with Mrs. Wang, and suddenly felt the malicious gaze cast on her sensitively.
She turned her head, one was Mrs. Yu - this is understandable, ignore it.
The other...is actually Du Hongshi.
Hey, the Zhang family actually invited Du Hongshi together this time, it seems that there will be a lot of excitement.
Du Hongshi withdrew his gaze, but his heart was filled with uncontrollable excitement, the Bodhisattva really has eyes, it was not in vain that she begged for several months, and she really gave birth to a girl, God really helped Yunyue.
After waiting for a while, the three-washing ceremony officially began.The Zhang family specially invited the most famous auspicious grandma in the city to preside over the ceremony. A series of complicated ceremonies were dazzling.Zhang's Xisan specially invited the chef from Mudan Building to the banquet, and Yun Xi ate a lot of dishes that she sold to the Zeng family.
When adding gifts, both Yun Xi and Yun Yao put down a tael of silver.
The auspicious grandma uttered a series of auspicious words. Looking at the treasures piled up in the basin, her face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.
To Yun Xi's surprise, the Du Hong family also added a handful of copper coins, which was so generous that it made people look sideways.Others didn't know that Du Hong's throwing away the money was purely because she remembered that she was born to be a useless girl, so she was happy to throw money away.
After the third baptism was over, Zhang Yuan’s mother, Mrs. Zhang, dropped a big bomb on the spot, “Today I invite everyone, besides attending my granddaughter’s third baptism, there is also an announcement, that is, my daughter Zhang Yuan is about to make peace with Yu Hao."
Does anyone play Onmyoji like me?Yesterday, one of my friends came out of Ibaraki Doji, the other out of the demon sword, and the other out of the green lantern. I didn't even have a cherry blossom demon, so I cried!
