Empress and concubine

After being urged by the maids, Zhao Yi was rarely nervous. Seeing this, Chu Yao couldn't help laughing and said, "It's just a meal, and we don't talk about important family and country affairs, so it's worth my wife's nervousness?"

Hearing this, Zhao Yi took Chu Yao's hand, and asked back, "How can you not be nervous when I return to see Master Taishan?" Then she raised her hand and nodded on the tip of Chu Yao's nose, "I will return to the capital in a while. , you follow me back to the mansion, and see if you are nervous about seeing my parents."

Hearing this, Chu Yao's face was immediately dyed crimson, her eyes were full of affection, she glanced at Zhao Yi, then reached out to push her, "Let's talk about things in a while, let's talk about them now. , but I want to see my father first," Chu Yao paused, and then said, "Didn't I hear the urging outside? Hurry up and change your clothes."

Zhao Yi nodded, "Let's go now."

As Zhao Yi said, she called Ziyanhuaying to come in, leaving Qianchuan outside to watch.When the two of Zi Yan came, they already had new clothes and accessories in their hands.

What Zhao Yi was given was a moon-white brocade dress with dark patterns, all trimmed with navy blue brocade, it doesn't look too plain, and anyone who knows the goods will know that this dress is really valuable.Comparing with Zhao Yi's original attire, Zi Yan picked out a headband with the same color as the clothes, and a suet jade pendant, which was worn with a concentric knot pattern that Chu Yao specially brought here.

Chu Yao glanced at it briefly, then said to Huaying, "Bring the folding fan I just got a few days ago, and use the navy blue one embroidered with orchids for the cover."

Huaying agreed, and put down Chu Yao's clothes and jewelry.

Chu Yao saw that Zhao Yi had already put on clothes under the service of Zi Yan, so she also started to change.

Yuemo was specially matched by the two Ziyanhuaying, and Chu Yao's clothes were also moon-white, so it looked like they were from the same place as Zhao Yi's clothes.It's just that Chu Yao has embroidered flower patterns on top of the dark flowers, which looks more complicated than Zhao Yi's.The accessories on the side are mostly white jade with flowers and grass patterns, and there are gold and silver, which are just the effect of inlays and embellishments, and cannot take away the original color of suet jade.

When Huaying came back, Zhao Yi was helping Chu Yao tie her belt, Huaying and Ziyan who was standing beside her smiled at each other, and then went forward, "My lord, this is the fan cover that my sister ordered, please take a look at it. After finishing speaking, Huaying couldn't hold back anymore and laughed.I don't know if it's for the uncle or something else.

Just at this time, Zhao Yi also fastened the belt for Chu Yao, took the fan over, and knocked on Huaying's head, "Hurry up and do the makeup for the lady, I was afraid of delay, why don't you panic now? "

When Huaying heard this, she forgot everything else and went to help Chu Yao dress up.

Fortunately, Zhao Yi reminded her in time, Huaying returned to her hometown, and she seemed to have opened up, her hands and feet became more agile, and there was no delay after all.

When Zhao Yi and Chu Yao arrived at the main hall together, Feng Ying hadn't come yet, and Chu Yao was about to ask the housekeeper to serve tea, but Zhao Yi stopped her, "It's not good to drink tea before meals. If you are thirsty, just ask someone to drink it for you." The water comes."

After hearing this, Chu Yao followed her instructions, and only asked to bring up white water and put it in a tea bowl, just to make a show.

When they came out just now, all three of Ziyan Asakawa Huaying came, but there was only one wrong eye, Huaying didn't know where to go, only Ziyan Asakawa was serving, Zhao Yi frowned, Chu Yao didn't Fortunately, Huaying quickly brought a group of people to serve tea, with a look of excitement on her face, Zhao Yi only glanced at it, and saw that Chu Yao didn't pay attention, so she didn't take it to heart .

Perhaps the housekeeper sent someone to report to Feng Ying, but after half a cup of tea, Feng Ying came over, and everyone saluted again.There was nothing special about this meal, it was just some unspoken rules, and they only exchanged a few words when they first met.The meals on the table are not very diverse, but more like the food of ordinary people. An ant climbs a tree, a chicken stewed with mushrooms, and a cabbage fried. Compared with the outside, the ingredients are better and the portion is larger. Some, dishes, basins and bowls are fine porcelain.

Only when the food was used up and the leftovers were taken away, Feng Ying slowly opened his mouth, "I just got a calligraphy the day before yesterday, how about my son-in-law come and observe it with the old man?"

"My son-in-law is very honored," Zhao Yi cupped his hands, with a smile on his face.

Chu Yao glanced at the faces of the two, then stood up and said to Feng Ying, "Since the husband is talking with daddy, the daughter will go first."

Feng Ying nodded, "Go ahead, don't tell my dear grandson to wake up, but I can't find anyone." After speaking, he asked Zhao Yi again, "You were here just now, did you go to see Wen Yuan?"

Zhao Yizheng nodded to Chu Yao, and when she heard Feng Ying's question, she hurriedly said, "I went, but the timing was unlucky, Wen Yuan was falling asleep, so I just looked at it and never woke him up."

"Well," Feng Ying was quite satisfied after hearing Zhao Yi's words. While taking Zhao Yi out, leading him to the study, he instructed, "Wen Yuan is still young, and it is when he is sleepy, and it is late. It’s okay to go back and see you later.”

Feng Ying led Zhao Yi through the cobblestone path, and stopped by the small lake, "My son-in-law is from Daxia, so he must have never seen the scenery of our Li country, right?"

"That's right." Zhao Yi stopped, stood behind Feng Ying, and took two steps back, so as not to be too close, there was room for reaction, and not to appear alienated, which was also in line with the current identities of Zhao Yi and Feng Ying. .

Feng Ying doesn't care how much Zhao Yi answers, all she needs is for her to answer, it's just a conversation, it just depends on whether Zhao Yi answers it or not.

Feng Ying nodded with a smile, "Because the capital is in the southern region, Daxia has a little more refinement and extravagance than other places. Even though Weidi is similar to Li, it is more in line with the atmosphere of Daxia. I, Li The country lives in the north, and it is the longest winter, but the most beautiful is this autumn." Feng Ying stopped talking, looked at Zhao Yi with a smile, and then continued, "My son-in-law really chose a good time .”

Feng Ying's last sentence seemed to be a sigh, but also seemed to contain something else, which made Zhao Yi's heart shudder, and she couldn't help cheering up.

"It's actually like this? It's my son-in-law's luck," Zhao Yi said with a smile on his lips, but he said calmly, "I'm ashamed to say that when my son-in-law came, he had his sights set on Li Guo. It’s only during this season, if the season is not good, it’s a trivial matter to come here for nothing, if you can’t enjoy the autumn colors of the Li country with Master Taishan, this is..."

Before Zhao Yi finished speaking, Feng Ying clapped his hands and laughed, "It's time to watch the season," Feng Ying said, and gave Zhao Yi a meaningful look, "There is still a lot of time, how many times can we see this autumn scenery?" Day, but this calligraphy, the old man likes it very much, my son-in-law should hurry up and go with the old man."

After Feng Ying took Zhao Yi out, Chu Yao sent Huaying to follow behind, saying that if the two of them went directly to the study, then they don't have to worry about it, they just come back, if they stop halfway, no matter what they say Everything has to be learned in detail.After finishing the arrangements, he took Ziyan Asakawa and the two back to his residence.

After entering the door, Chu Yao took off her shoes and leaned on the couch. Zi Yan hurried to find a beauty hammer to help Chu Yao relax.Today's matter, one after another, seems to be rushed.

After a while, seeing that Chu Yao had regained her breath, Asakawa asked, "Just now, Huaying followed behind and ran away by herself. Sister, you didn't tell her, but asked her to go on an errand."

Hearing this, Chu Yao half-opened her eyes, looked at Asakawa for a while, and then smiled at Zi Yan, "Go outside and ask, which little girl beat the vinegar jar, why is there such a sour smell?"

Ziyan was stunned, then she understood, she took a narrow look at Asakawa, and deliberately slapped her under her nose with her hand, before she said to Chu Yao, "Why do I feel like it is on Asakawa, Asakawa, you are not Are you using vinegar as perfume?"

Seeing the attitude of the two of them, Asakawa immediately blushed and didn't speak, just stared at Ziyan.

Seeing that Asakawa was annoyed, Chu Yao stopped talking, and explained to Asakawa, "Huaying originally came out of this house, and her connections are stronger than yours, so I asked her to talk to my sisters often, so that I can know about this. There's something new out there."

Chu Yao's explanation was simple, but it could not completely dispel Asakawa's doubts, but this time, it was Ziyan who asked first, "My sister asked her to do this, so I shouldn't wait for a servant to ask, but this Huaying... "Zi Yan thought for a while, and changed the euphemism, "I used to be in the mansion, it looked good, but now that I'm back at my home, my sister won't worry about her?"

"I'm worried," Chu Yao saw that Ziyan Asakawa was about to ask, and continued, "It's just that she's smart and doesn't know how to do such things." As Chu Yao said, she looked at Ziyan , "Speaking of which, Huaying is quite similar to you, Ziyan."

Zi Yan suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, she is extremely intelligent, and she will definitely not do such things."

"Sister Ziyan?" Asakawa was still a little confused.

Zi Yan hurriedly explained, "Huaying was sent by the Feng family to 'Sister Feng'. As long as the wife still bears the name of Feng's sister, Huaying will definitely not commit any crimes. This is one of them. Big maids like us , must be carefully selected, not only other homework, but also a character, which is the top choice. Also, the preparatory girl next to the sister is naturally carefully taught according to such standards. Ruo Huaying This is the second thing," Zi Yan moistened her throat, "But you and I both know that people's hearts are unpredictable, and the so-called character is just a good-looking thing on the surface So, the third is still 'Master'. A big maid who has been carefully taught according to the standards of the family, and has an exquisite mind, naturally understands that if there is a case of treason..."

After listening to Zi Yan's explanation, Asakawa suddenly realized that the treacherous girl, the new owner will use you, and she will never get close to her because she has a grudge in her heart.As for the old owner... just look at the old saying 'once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of well rope', you will know it.But such an attitude is still light, just look at the unfaithful girl, if there are a few of them who can still see it, you will know the result of most of them.

Asakawa thought in his heart, and then remembered what Chu Yao said just now that Huaying and Ziyan were similar, and after a little comparison, he lost his voice.

The atmosphere fell down for a while, Chu Yao and the others stopped talking, and it took about half a cup of tea before Huaying ran in from outside. Chu Yao asked Zi Yan to pour a bowl of tea for her, but she had no time to speak. Then he poured it down in one breath, and poured it twice in a row, and then he took a breath.

Seeing this, Chu Yao couldn't help laughing, "I didn't have anyone to urge you, but you ran in such a hurry. Your sister Ziyan has served you twice, why don't you thank her quickly."

After hearing this, Huaying really came to salute and thank Ziyan.
