Space takes me to ancient times

Chapter 228 They Are in Love
Mrs. Wang held An Fengxia's hand, liking it more and more.This girl is so in line with the fantasy of her daughter in her heart, her charming daughter, her voice is like a bird's song, and her voice is indescribably euphemistic, well... really good!
"Mother..." Qu You shouted with a sad face.

"Hey." Wang replied absent-mindedly.

The two seemed to be chatting very happily. Ling An's admiration for Wang Shi and Wang Shi's love for An Fengxia seemed to have silently woven into a web, and no one else could penetrate a single inch.

Qu You sat down on the chair resentfully, and rattled the teacup in her hand.The little bitch, not to mention breaking into the house to force her shares, and now she is blatantly robbing her mother, really uncle can bear it, and auntie can't bear it.She gritted her teeth angrily, and put the cup heavily on the table, making a loud 'snap'.

Wang Shi was startled, turned around and glared at Qu You, "Xiao You, you..."

Before Wang could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Princess Ling'an, who smiled sweetly and patted her hand softly, "Sister You is a real person, Auntie, don't take offense."

Well, she is indeed a good girl who is well educated and reasonable.Wang Shi nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly a thought came up in her heart that she wanted to betroth her to Qu Xiao.She opened her mouth, and finally sighed helplessly.

"Auntie has something on her mind?" Ling An asked anxiously.

Well, it really is Qiqiao Linglong's heart, crystal clear!Wang Shi was a little more satisfied with An Fengxia, and suddenly regretted not having a son.

"Mom, why are you here looking for me?"

These words can be regarded as completely summoning Wang's mind back, she raised her hand and patted her forehead, then turned to look at Qu You, "Xiao You, today is the child's third day."

Qu You nodded, with such an expression on her face, she raised her head to look at An Fengxia, and deliberately called out her name, "Princess Ling'an, the house is busy today, so I won't stay any longer."

Princess Ling'an, this girl is a princess.When Wang heard this, she was shocked on the spot.

An Fengxia held the teacup, as if he didn't understand, he drank lightly.She raised her head and smiled at Wang Shi, then nodded slowly.

"Auntie, Feng Xia has no intention of concealing his identity, please forgive me!"

Wang Shi did not answer, although she knew that those who could enter Prince Rui's residence were always either rich or noble, but she had never experienced such a thing as being able to meet a princess casually.At this moment, she was no longer full of novelty about Ling'an like when she first entered the house.

"Women don't know the identity of the princess, so they lost their etiquette. I hope Princess Haihan." Wang suddenly got up, and blessed her body in the direction of An Fengxia.

An Fengxia turned sideways quickly, and received a half salute.She is the princess of the Great Qin Kingdom, and her family background is noble. Over the years, regardless of whether they are male, female, old or young, high or low, countless people have knelt at her feet.But why, she couldn't bear to accept this woman's gift, could it be... it was the kindness in her eyes.

"Auntie, please hurry up, the so-called ignorant is not to blame, so why are you guilty?"

Wang Shi nodded, feeling a little grateful when she got up.

Well, absolutely, this is simply the queen of the Oscars.Princess Ling'an's acting talent made Qu Yougao appreciate it again.

"Mother, let's go..." After Qu You finished speaking, she took Wang Shi's arm and walked east across the courtyard.

Come alone, leave with a group of people.Mrs. Wang and Qu You hurried away, leaving only An Fengxia's master and servant staring at him.

"Princess, let's go too." Zi Yao stepped forward.

"No..." An Fengxia shook his head.

Don't leave - the girls looked at each other, as if they couldn't keep up with An Fengxia's thoughts.There is no one in this house, if you don't leave, when will you wait?
"Princess, you..." Lu Wu was about to ask, when An Fengxia walked out, "Princess, where are you going?" Several girls hurriedly chased her out.

"Go and feed the child." As he said that, he stepped a little faster.

Qu You walked in front, An Fengxia chased after her, and when Wang's mother and daughter arrived at Dongkua Courtyard, she finally caught up.

"Why are you here?" Qu You turned around wondering.

An Fengxia first gave Wang a sweet smile, and then turned her head to answer, "Come to feed the child." He said it with confidence, as if she was the child's real aunt.

Qu You didn't want to argue with her, so he nodded and walked her sideways to welcome her in.

Outside the master bedroom of Dongkuayuan, an incense table has been set up at this time, on which are enshrined thirteen gods, including Bixia Yuanjun, Qiongxiao Empress, Yunxiao Empress, Cuisheng Empress, Sending Son Empress, Douzhu Empress, and Vision Empress.There is also millet in the incense burner, a pair of "small double bags" are inserted on the wax skewer, and yellow coins, ingots, and thousands of sheets are pressed on the bottom to worship the gods.On the kang head in the bedroom, there are statues of "Kang Gong and Kang Mother", and five bowls of sweet-scented osmanthus are placed as offerings.

"Hurry up, hurry up, let's see who's coming." The aunt welcomed Qu You in with a smile on her face.

"This girl is..." Second Aunt looked at An Fengxia suspiciously.

"This is..." Wang pursed her lips, and was about to introduce her when she was interrupted by An Fengxia.

"I'm the handkerchief of Sister Qu You, and Auntie can just call me Feng Xia."

A sweet smile appeared, once again warming everyone's hearts.The Qu family had few daughters in the first place, but now, when they saw such a delicate and sweet girl, they immediately fell in love with her.

"Feng Xia, sit inside, it's the child's third day today, so stay for dinner later." Han Shi came over and patted An Fengxia's little hand gently.

Wang opened her mouth, and just about to remind her mother-in-law, An Fengxia turned around and smiled at her, and swallowed back the words that she originally wanted to say.

"In this case, Feng Xia would be more respectful than obedient."

You really know how to follow the flow of favors, if you are asked to stay, you will stay, and you are not afraid that the food will be poisonous, and it will take the life of your Princess Qin.Qu You curled her lips, her dark eyes were full of reluctance.

Except for Chu Yu who was in the barracks, all members of the Qu family had arrived.The servants put the copper basin containing the soup made from locust locust leaves and mugwort leaves and all the ceremonial items on the kang. Afterwards, the mother-in-law with good fortune and fortune took the child out, and this "washing three" was just the beginning. up.

Qu You started by throwing a gold ingot into the basin, An Fengxia then threw an emerald bracelet into the basin, the eldest aunt put twelve taels of silver ingots, the second aunt put a small jade pendant, and everyone poured into the basin one after another Adding things, it didn't stop until the clear water in the basin overflowed.

After refilling the basin, the two women each picked up a stick and stirred it into the basin, saying: "Stir once, stir again and again, the elder brother leads the younger sister to run away. Seventy children, eighty children, crooked hair children, naughty children , Xilihulu is here!" After speaking, she began to bathe the children.

The child suddenly caught cold and burst into tears.

Qu You was a little distressed, just as she was about to speak out to reprimand her mother-in-law, she was dragged out by Mrs. Wang. "Xiaoyou, don't mess around, it's called a 'sound basin'."

Speaker?Qu You turned around suspiciously, it wasn't shown on TV, and she hadn't heard of it either.

"You, you will know when you have a child. Not only is the child crying, it is not a taboo, but it is considered auspicious, and it is called a "sounding basin". "Wang slowly explained to her daughter.

The two women didn't seem to be affected. They chanted congratulations while washing, "wash your hair first and become a prince; , to know the state".Then, light it with a moxa leaf ball, put it on the child's forehead with ginger slices as a support, and burn it symbolically.Then he combed the child's hair and dressed up, and said: "Three combs, two combs, wear a red top when you grow up; draw eyebrows on the left, and temples on the right, find a wife (son-in-law) to live in the fourth village; brush your teeth and rinse your mouth Don’t be ugly when you talk to people.” Roll the egg on the child’s face and say again: “Roll the egg on the face, the face is like egg skin, the willow red is as white as white, you are really a lover.” After washing, tie the child up, Hit the body with a green onion three times, and said: "One dozen is smart ("Cong" and "onion" are homophonic), and two dozen are smart." Then he gave the green onions to his uncle and aunt, and told them Throw green onions on the roof, and the child will be extremely smart in the future.

Qu You watched with relish, wanting to know what other tricks these two wives will have.

I saw that the two women picked up the weight again and gestured a few times, saying: "Although the weight is small and weighs a thousand catties, it is full of society and family. Picking up the lock and gestured three times, they said: "When you grow up, your head is tight and your feet are tight. Hold the child in the tea tray, tuck the child with the gold and silver zippers or jewelry prepared in advance by the family, and say: "Tuck the gold on the left, and the silver on the right. If you can't spend it, reward the servants." Finally Use a small mirror to take a picture of the child's buttocks and say: "Use a precious mirror to look at the buttocks, and the poop during the day will be clean." Finally, sift a few paper pomegranate flowers into the oven and say: " Gardenias, jasmines, peaches, apricots, roses, tuberoses, pimples, scattered..."

This set made Qu You dizzy, and after she figured out the clues, she turned her head and continued to read.

After adding the pots, the two wives asked for the maiden's yard, god-worshiping money and food, and incense roots, and then sent them to the courtyard for incineration.A mother-in-law used copper chopsticks to burn the magic code of "Kang Gong and Kang Mother" and said: "Kang Gong and Kang Mother's surname is Li, adults and children will be handed over to you; send more boys and less girls." The ashes were wrapped in red paper and pressed under the kang mat, saying that he (she) would stay at the top of the kang forever, and bless adults and children to be safe.Afterwards, he greeted everyone in the Qu family with "Congratulations".

"Okay, reward..." Qu You laughed proudly.

The servant was holding a red tea tray with 100 taels of silver attached to it, and the two women each had 50 taels of silver.

"Thank you, Ma'am, thank you, Ma'am." After thanking each other, they put it into their purses.

After the sanitation was over, Qu You sent the two wives out of the palace. Before leaving, the wives put the gold and silver pegs, jewelry, coppers, apron cloth, and millet used as incense ashes. Children, eggs, xiguo, sprinkled offerings - sweet-scented osmanthus crock stove, oil cake...all of them were taken away in one go.

Qu You looked at the clean table and couldn't help but wryly laughed out loud, this woman who washes the toilet is too profitable, it really makes people's heart flutter.

"Come, come, the ceremony is over, let's go eat." Han came over and took An Fengxia's hand.

"Thank you grandma."

"You're not an outsider, why are you being polite to grandma?" Han patted her hand distressedly.This girl Zhang is pretty and lovely, and I don't know if she agreed... Thinking about it, she raised her head and looked at Qu You, "Xiao You, if you don't take Feng Xia to the inner hall, you can't neglect the guests."

The cleaning is over, this guy still doesn't leave, do you really want to stay and eat, Qu Youqi's chest heaves up and down, there is no way to take her to the inner hall.

"Grandma Qu, Feng Xia has something else to do, so I won't bother you today, and I will definitely visit you another day." After An Fengxia finished speaking, she gently let go of Han's hand.

Hey, why bother?Han's hand fell, and his heart felt a little empty.What a gentle girl, if only her granddaughter-in-law.

"Grandma, the meal can be eaten another day, but this matter... must not be delayed." Qu You comforted the Han family, and looked at Princess Ling'an unkindly from the corner of her eye.If you dare to eat, if you dare to eat, I will cancel the contract...

An Fengxia smiled helplessly, and nodded at Han Shi, "There are priorities, but Fengxia can't delay this matter."

Hey, is there no fate.Han raised her head and looked at Qu Xiao in the house, only this one of the three children was missing, now, this one finally fell in love with one, but she didn't even meet her face to face.

Seeing Han Shi frequently looking into the house, Qu You instantly understood her intentions.In fact, she is also anxious about the third brother's marriage, but she is not very optimistic about Princess Ling'an.One is the difference in identity, and the other is the difference in the country.The two are different enough to separate people who love each other, let alone they haven't met each other yet.

"Grandma, come in, I'll see Miss Ann off."

Han Shi nodded, although she felt a little unwilling, she couldn't let go of An Fengxia's hand.She followed behind her daughters-in-law step by step, looking back three times, feeling extremely reluctant to part with this lovely girl.

"Mother, do you know who that Miss An is?" As soon as she entered the room, Wang Shi, who was normally gentle and virtuous, began to yell.

Han gave her a blank look. She didn't know whether to comfort others or comfort herself. She said confidently, "What else is there, but it's just Xiaoyou's boudoir friend, whose status is higher than my granddaughter's in Gao Neng."

Wang Shi nodded, and Qu You's name for An Fengxia suddenly rang in his ears.She looked around and waited until the eyes of everyone on the table were attracted, then swallowed and said, "Mother, she is the princess of the Qin Kingdom, Princess Ling'an who is known as the 'protector of the country'. "

Inside the house, there was silence, only the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard from time to time.Han seemed unwilling to believe it. She glanced at the third daughter-in-law nervously, and then asked, "Is what you said true?"

"How could my daughter-in-law lie to you? This is what Xiaoyou told me personally."

"Qin's first-born princess is also known as 'protecting the country'." Qu Dongsheng muttered.

"That's right, that's what Xiaoyou said."

"There are two princesses born in Qin State, one is born by Empress Xiaoxian, and the other is born by Empress Ci'an. However, there is only one who has the title of 'protecting the country', and that is the mausoleum that came to marry this time. Princess An——An Fengxia." Qu Xiao, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly raised his head.

"How do you know?" Han asked.

"Back then, Xiaoyou asked me to open a branch of 'Golden Jade Mantang' in Qin State, and I had dealings with her there." Qu Xiao seemed unwilling to mention that past, but now he only mentioned it vaguely.

"So, you've already met?" Second Aunt asked with bright eyes.

Qu Xiao pursed his lips, and nodded helplessly, "Not only have I met, but I have also talked to you a few times." However, the process and ending were not perfect.

"Then... is it possible for you?"

"Impossible." Qu Xiao shook his head.

"How could it be impossible?" Han screamed.

Qu Xiao raised his head, and looked at Han with those eyes full of wisdom, "Grandma, don't forget, she is a married princess."

In a word, the passion that had just risen in the Qu family was completely extinguished immediately.That's right, what are they thinking, that's the princess who got married, even if the Qu family is capable, they can still compete with the royal family for marriage.

"Eat, eat..." Qu Dongsheng smiled awkwardly, and quickly greeted everyone.

"Yes, yes, today is a good day, we won't go home until we're drunk." The uncle also got up, following to ease the atmosphere.

Everyone sighed in unison, feeling pity in their hearts.

Qu Xiao lowered his eyes, he didn't seem to care about everyone's attention, he held the wine glass to himself, and drank one after another in a place where everyone couldn't see, until Qu You entered the door, he put down the wine glass.

That's not right... Qu You looked at Qu Xiao suspiciously. When she didn't enter the house just now, she stopped at the door for a while. The third brother clearly said that he had no contact with An Fengxia, but now his expression doesn't look right.Taking advantage of everyone not paying attention, she slowly approached Qu Xiao.

"Third Brother, are you in love with Princess Ling'an?"

Qu Xiao was completely stunned by this sudden sentence...
