Chapter 28 Seeking Peace of Mind
Going out to a banquet is a big deal. In ancient times, unmarried women had few opportunities to go out, especially in Kyoto, where etiquette was strict and rules were numerous, and freedom was an unspeakable luxury.
"Speaking of which, the former Minister of Personnel had a concubine's daughter in her family. After she fell into the water, her temperament changed drastically. She often said things that ordinary people couldn't understand. She also talked about making soap and cosmetics, and even encouraged the servants and maids to eat at the same table with their master!"
As soon as Zhao Fangyu heard it, he knew that this girl from the Minister of Personnel's family was most likely a time traveler, and he couldn't help but prick up his ears.
Zhao Fangjin kept everyone in suspense before continuing, "Later, the girl fell in love with the young master of General Qian's family. She insisted that the young master was the protagonist in the storybook, that she and the young master were a perfect match, and that the young master was the son of the world... but that night, she was taken away by the Jinyiwei!"
"The Jinyiwei who led the team was the son of Commander Pei. When they went to arrest people, the concubine even spoke wildly, saying that Young Master Pei was a tragic male partner and that there would always be a time in the future when Young Master Pei would regret asking her for help..."
Zhao Fangyu is no longer the little fool she was when she first traveled through time. Having been baptized by feudal ethics, she finds everything incredible and stupid.
Please, that’s the Jinyiwei!
Talking nonsense to the Jinyiwei... he is really like a birthday star hanging himself.
Zhao Fangyu felt uncomfortable eating this melon, but he endured the discomfort and finished eating the whole thing. It was a story about a time-traveling girl who tried to imitate a time-travel novel, but ended up being thrown into the imperial prison and her nine clans suffered.
As soon as the carriage stopped, several sisters got off one after another. Zhao Fangyu's carriage was crowded, with three people sitting in it, and Zhao Fangwei and Zhao Fangyun sitting in the back.
Zhao Fangjin and his sisters walked towards the eldest lady who was waiting in front. Before he could say anything, a eldest lady he knew came over to greet him.
"Are these the girls in your family?" The person who said this was wearing a dark green long-sleeved dress with a peacock pattern. She was shining and it was obvious that she was not an ordinary person.
The eldest lady said yes, and immediately gave sachets to Zhao Fangyu and her sisters one by one with a smile. After receiving them, Zhao Fangyu just stuffed them into her sleeves and followed her sisters to express her gratitude.
The eldest lady in dark green clothes felt that her sisters were dressed similarly, wearing similar jewelry, and could not really tell who was legitimate and who was not.
The only difference is that Zhao Fangjin's earrings are bright red coral beads, while Fangwei behind him has peach blossom earrings with pink tourmaline, and the ones worn by the younger ones mostly have green and turquoise gems.
I vaguely heard that the eldest girl was the eldest lady's legitimate daughter, and most of the praises went to Zhao Fangjin, who was the closest to her. Occasionally, they would praise Zhao Fangwei, who was following behind. Zhao Fangwei blushed and became shy when she was praised, but she was very polite and it was obvious that she was a good girl who was well-educated at home.
Zhao Fangyu usually plays best with Zhao Fangjin. At this time, Zhao Fangjin was dragged away by the eldest lady to socialize. She felt that she could not talk to Zhao Fangyun and Zhao Fanglan, so she just followed them quietly and watched the scenery.
The flower-viewing banquet was naturally accompanied by exotic flowers. The wife of the Minister of Personnel cultivated a very beautiful patch of pure and white peach blossoms at home.
When the wind blew, it seemed like a cool and soft fairy rain was falling.
It's not that Zhao Fangyu hasn't seen rare peach blossoms before. The Zhao family themselves has a two-color peach tree called Golden Jade Peach, which alternates between red and pink, but is no match for this pure and white peach.
"Long time no see. How come you've grown taller?" Meng Yunqiao patted Zhao Fangyu's shoulder from behind.
"I really don't know what you eat to grow taller. My second brother even said that he was afraid that you wouldn't grow taller because you were small, so he asked me to send you this and that..."
Meng Yunqiao grabbed her handkerchief in dissatisfaction. She was a little plump, which was in line with the current aesthetic, but she was not tall. She was surpassed by her younger sister at home, and now even Zhao Fangyu had surpassed her. She felt depressed.
Zhao Fangyu's heart skipped a beat. He immediately greeted Zhao Fanglan and walked aside with Meng Yunqiao.
"What do you mean, second brother? Are you helping others deliver things to me?"
Zhao Fangyu wanted to grab Meng Yunqiao's ears and lift them up to see what was in her little head!
Although her current body is only that of a six or seven-year-old, this really served as a reminder to Zhao Fangyu that he should be extra careful when accepting gifts in the future, so as to avoid mixing in things that shouldn't be there and causing a lot of trouble.
Meng Yunqiao saw that Zhao Fangyu looked unhappy. She immediately felt guilty. She glanced at Zhao Fangyu's face and squeezed out her words: "Second brother said that he bullied you before and felt sorry... He saw that I have a good relationship with you, so when he asked me to send you food... I brought some with me. Of course, it's not exclusive to you. I have a share of everything I give you, and I only give you the extra ones... No... Anyway, I won't spread it out to make things difficult for you."
As she spoke, Meng Yunqiao's voice became softer and softer, so much so that she didn't even dare to look at Zhao Fangyu. She only dared to look at the embroidered handkerchief in her hand that was completely torn into pieces.
Zhao Fangyu's pretty face turned cold, and she even took away the hand that Meng Yunqiao was holding. The coldness in her tone almost pierced Meng Yunqiao's heart through her words.
"I didn't know that Sister Meng and I had such a good relationship that she could send me gifts on behalf of a foreign man."
Although Meng Yangjiang is Zhao Fangyu's cousin, he is also a stranger.
Meng Yunqiao quickly waved her hands and explained: "No, I just think that my second brother is the same as your second brother... and my brother is here to apologize to you, nothing will happen..."
Zhao Fangyu didn’t know what kind of magic potion Meng Yanjiang had given Meng Yunqiao, but Meng Yunqiao’s twisted logic would definitely not work on her.
Zhao Fangyu immediately took a few steps back, and the azure handkerchief in her hand drew an arc in the air: "Sister Meng, what you said is unreasonable. Your second brother is naturally your second brother. He is your biological cousin, but not mine."
"The matter between me and my second cousin Meng was originally just because Xun'er's kite fell on my head. It was not an offense at all, let alone asking Sister Mengliu to apologize to me on behalf of Brother Meng'er and Xun'er."
"My second cousin Meng and I have only met a few times, so we are not familiar with each other. Sister Meng Liu has a good relationship with her brothers, so she gave me some good things when she got them. I am naturally grateful, but this is for Sister Meng Liu, so I can't take advantage of her every time. You don't have to give me any more in the future. When Sister Meng Liu makes something herself, she can give me some."
Zhao Fangyu and Meng Yunqiao made things clear. If this kind of trouble was not stopped, who knows how much trouble it would cause in the future. If her reputation was ruined, she would have no choice but to marry that reckless Meng Er!
Meng Yunqiao nodded quickly, repeatedly assured him, and even swore to the heavens: "Okay, okay, I will never let my brother send you anything again. If I help him again, I will be a puppy, and you can keep me in your yard to guard the door for you!"
After all, they were in the garden, so Zhao Fangyu didn't say much to Meng Yunqiao. After they made peace, Zhao Fangyu began to ask Meng Yunqiao about Meng Yangjiang.
