Eldest daughter

Chapter 219
In the past two days, Wang Yuan'er followed Chen Shu to visit the west city, and this was just in the west city, which was enough to open her eyes. If it wasn't for the fact that she was really shy, she would definitely buy everything she wanted.

But the harvest of the two days was not small. Seeing that Chun'er's wedding day was getting closer and closer, she always felt sorry for her younger sister, so she bought a lot of things for her, planning to add makeup to her in the future.And that girl Qing'er likes rouge and gouache, she also bought some, and bought a colorful headband for the younger sister and so on.

Perhaps it was Cui Yuan's reason, and the efficiency of handling affairs in Beijing was extremely fast. Wang Yuan'er quickly got the contract documents and keys of that shop, and he was able to renovate the shop.

While still in Beijing, Wang Yuan'er stopped wandering around, but took the key to the shop, and drew a simple drawing of the decoration according to his own ideas based on the terrain on the spot.

When Cui Yuan came to Bali Hu, Wang Yuan'er was lying on the table in the shop and seriously drawing pictures. The sun slanted from the door, showing a faint golden light, and she was in the halo, very quiet.

Looking at Wang Yuan'er, Cui Yuan's impetuous heart for the past two days suddenly calmed down.

"What are you doing? So serious." He walked in.

Wang Yuaner was startled, squinted his eyes and looked over, saw him clearly, and was very pleasantly surprised: "Didn't Brother Chen say that you are busy? Why are you here?" Seeing bloodshot eyes in his haggard look, he couldn't help frowning : "Is something not going well? But you can't rest well? I see that you are not very energetic."

There was concern in her tone, and Cui Yuan felt warm in his heart.

It's not much, but it's troublesome. Xiuxian hurt her head and her forehead was broken. When she woke up, she seemed to have lost her soul. He said a few words of comfort in a soft voice, and then went to the palace to ask the emperor for some money. Yuji cream, she smiled a little.

But those words were broken, and there was a lot of embarrassment between the two of them, and he was no longer as comfortable as before, and he didn't dare to stay longer, because the longing in her eyes couldn't bear it, so he could only let him run away.

"I heard from Chen Shu that you bought a lot of things." Cui Yuan sat down, picked up the blueprint on the table, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What is this?"

"Can't you see it? It's the blueprint of my shop. I plan to decorate it like this. What do you think?" Wang Yuaner asked excitedly.

Cui Yuan couldn't help laughing: "It's like a ghost draws a talisman."

Wang Yuan'er glared at him, then looked at him again, and frowned: "I really can't see clearly? I think it's pretty good." She didn't learn to draw, so she just drew roughly.

Cui Yuan smiled, and simply walked around the shop, drawing on Wang Yuaner's old drawing with one hand, and after walking around, he took another piece of paper and redrawed the revised drawing.

One stroke at a time, his hand was like a magic pen, and he quickly sketched on the paper. After a while, a vivid decoration picture appeared in front of Wang Yuaner's eyes.

She widened her eyes in surprise, picked up the drawing, and looked at her own, blushing.

No wonder he said it was a ghost drawing talisman, this is simply incomparable!
"It's amazing!" Wang Yuaner exclaimed.

When Cui Yuan heard this, the smile in his eyes became even bigger.

"I'll ask Chen Shu to take care of the decoration for you, tidy it up, let's go back to Changle Town tomorrow, and go out with you today?" Cui Yuan said with a smile.

Wang Yuan'er was a little hesitant: "This, will it be too much trouble for Brother Chen? Besides, if you ask him to help me, won't there be no one around you?"

"It's fine, there are other people available, and the renovation won't take too long." Cui Yuan stood up and said, "Let's go."

Wang Yuaner thought for a while, carefully put away the blueprints, and followed him out.

There was a carriage parked outside the shop, and on the shaft was a man with a black face. Xu Shi felt that Wang Yuaner was looking at him, and turned his head to smile, showing his white teeth.

Wang Yuan'er was startled, and a little bit ashamed of being caught, she couldn't help blushing.

"Qiu He, my bodyguard." Seeing this, Cui Yuan smiled and revealed his identity.

Wang Yuan'er blushed and blessed her body.

The carriage drove steadily out of the city, and it took some time before Qiu He reminded the two of them that they had arrived.

Wang Yuan'er lifted the curtain of the car and was about to get out of the car, but was grabbed by Cui Yuan and handed over a veiled hat.

She was stunned for a moment, waved her hand and said, "I don't need it, the farmers don't pay much attention."

During the few days in Beijing, she saw many ladies wearing this kind of hat, and she also knew that it was to avoid outside men's prying eyes, and the wives of rich families usually traveled like this.

But she is just a peasant girl, how can she be so particular, wearing this, people will say that she doesn't look like a prince in a dragon robe, and she is imitating her!

Cui Yuan smiled, put the veil on her head, and said: "No matter what your identity is, you should hide it if you are a girl, not to mention, you are still an unmarried girl, you should hide it even more. .”

Wang Yuan'er looked at him through the thin veil, her face under the veil was so hot that she was about to burn.

After getting out of the car, a gust of cool wind blew, and almost blew Wang Yuaner's veil off, but she was able to support it. When I raised my eyes, I saw the boundless lake, and many boats parked on the water.

"This is?" Wang Yuan'er turned to look at Cui Yuan beside him.

"The Drunken Lake outside the city." Cui Yuan said with a smile, "One of the ten scenic spots in Beijing, I planned to take you to Guoxiao Temple. There is a lot of incense, and it is also a royal temple. It is very lively, but you have to go there. It's fun to go early, it's late today, so I'll take you here for a walk."

Wang Yuan'er looked around, it was early summer, and there were many people on the boats on the lake, and the slightest laughter came from afar.

On the shore, there are also many shops, all kinds of goods are eye-catching, and hawkers are selling on the street, which is very lively.

Strolling to the ferry, a small and medium-sized boat was parked on the shore. There was a sturdy woman wearing a bamboo hat waiting on it. Qiuhe jumped on the boat first. Looking around the whole boat, it was insignificant. He nodded at Cui Yuan knowingly.

"You go first." Cui Yuan looked at Wang Yuan'er beside him.

Wang Yuan'er was not a serious lady, and she didn't want to be supported by Qiu He, so she got on the boat lightly and delicately holding her skirt.

Cui Yuan saw clearly from behind, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

After several people boarded the boat, the boatman steered the boat away, and the boat lady brought refreshments to Wang Yuaner and the others.

Qiu He casually poured two cups of tea, excused the heat in the cabin, and walked out of the deck.

Wang Yuan'er looked out with great interest, and the scenery on the shore gradually became a small dot, and there were boats driving slowly around.

Cui Yuan leaned on the soft cushion behind him, shaking the folding fan slowly in his hand, with a contented expression on his face.

"It's really beautiful here." Wang Yuan'er turned around with a smile.

Cui Yuan glanced out and said: "The boat will go farther, and you will see lotus. Now is the season, and it should be open."

"Really?" Wang Yuaner's eyes lit up.

Cui Yuan nodded, and said: "But it's not as good as the ten-mile lotus pond in the Princess Gongyi's mansion. It is a real ten-mile lotus. In summer, there are many people in the Princess' mansion asking for a post to go there to enjoy the flowers. Flower feast."

"Princess!" Wang Yuan'er said secretly, "That's like a person in the sky."

Cui Yuan smiled: "No matter how noble your status is, you still have to eat whole grains."

"That's true." Wang Yuan'er propped his chin, looked at the Changhu Lake outside and said, "I used to think that our Changle County was big enough. When I came to the capital, I realized what big is. A princess mansion has ten miles of river ponds. , this is not counting other gardens, and this Zuihu Lake is so big, and there are other places, this capital city is probably going to be as big as the sky."

When I really came to the capital, I realized that I used to sit in a well and watch the sky, or maybe this is the sky beyond the sky.

"If you say big, the real big is outside the Great Wall. The land is vast and the scenery outside the Great Wall is even more beautiful." Cui Yuan said with a smile.

Wang Yuan'er listened, her eyes shining brightly.

Seeing that she was interested, Cui Yuan simply continued talking.

Humanities, scenery, special snacks, he spoke interestingly, and Wang Yuaner also listened interestingly, sometimes laughing, sometimes marveling, sometimes sighing, the atmosphere in the cabin was pleasant and relaxed.

Sitting on the deck, Qiu He heard the laughter of the two, and couldn't help but look back. The second master didn't talk so much in the past, so why is he talking like a gossip today?
He looked at Cui Yuan's smiling face, but felt that this was not bad, at least the second master was happy, unlike at Cui's house...

After the boat sailed for two hours, Wang Yuan'er finally smelled the elegant fragrance of flowers. Looking out, he saw large lotus leaves floating on the water, and the lotus flowers were in full bloom, swaying gently in the breeze.

"it's beautiful."

Wang Yuan'er sighed in admiration, and saw the huge lake surface, green and pink against each other, there were boats parked in it not far away, and the melodious and melodious sound of piano could be heard faintly.

"Is there anyone else playing the piano?" Wang Yuan'er asked in surprise.

"When the lotus blooms, there are always many literati who come here to recite poems, paint pictures, play the piano and cook wine." Cui Yuan explained.

Wang Yuan'er thought inwardly, it really is the job of the sons of the aristocratic family, if they are peasants, they may only be busy planing food all day long.

The boat stopped slowly, Wang Yuan'er gave him a questioning look, Cui Yuan said: "Let's eat a boat meal and then turn around, the lotus leaves here are fragrant, and the food will definitely be fragrant."

Only now did Wang Yuan'er understand, no wonder she saw the boat lady take a fish just now.

"Go out and sit!" Cui Yuan stood up and walked to the deck, Qiu He stepped aside and went to the stern.

The boat was parked in the center of the lotus, surrounded by lotus, and the fragrance was fragrant. Wang Yuan'er sat with her knees hugged, admiring it, and felt peaceful in her heart.

After living two lifetimes, it is only today that I feel comfortable in life!
Suddenly, a half-opened pink lotus appeared in front of her eyes, which startled her.

Turning his head, it was Cui Yuan who handed it over. He smiled and said: "For you!"

Wang Yuan'er was very surprised, looking into his eyes, there was no bottom, as if trying to suck people in.

"Thank you." Wang Yuan'er lowered her head and took it, blushing and thanking her.

Both of them were a little embarrassed, but fortunately, there was music in the distance, so they let go of their conversation quickly.

Not long after, the boat lady invited the two of them to have lunch, and the feast with the theme of lotus was really delicious.

The music was melodious, the wine was lightly sipped, and there was a light chat and smile, as if something was rippling between the two of them.
