Chapter 1010 Xing Xiuyan: How to agree to be so straightforward?
Ningguo Mansion
Jia Heng came out of Rongqing Hall, it was not the right time, the summer heat was hot, he returned to the mansion and changed into a light summer dress, after thinking about it, he decided to go to the Grand View Garden, thinking about Yuanchun by the way.
Yuan Chun has been with him for two or three years, and it's not good for Mrs. Wang's side to know about it all the time, but there must be a suitable time, and the aftermath needs to be done well.
At this moment, the shade of trees in the Grand View Garden covers the stone path, the breeze is blowing, the vines and leaves are rustling with the wind, the stream gushes from the jagged rocks, and the cobblestones on both sides are densely covered with moss, which is eye-catching.
In fact, when Jia Heng was not in the Grand View Garden, many interesting things happened in the entire Grand View Garden.
It's just that Jia Heng fought in northern Xinjiang in the past, so he has no time to participate.
Jia Heng was wandering casually in the mansion, suddenly stood still, raised his eyes slightly, but saw a slim girl in a green skirt coming from the direction of Hengwuyuan.
The girl is nearly twenty-eight years old, with a slim figure, fair complexion on the cheeks, a melon-seeded face with a thin layer of makeup, and two curved willow-leaf eyebrows like clouds, as light as smoke, like gauze like fog.
It was Xing Xiuyan, the girl who was raised by a wealthy lady in Jia's family, and was usually distributed according to the girl's monthly schedule. Qin Keqing liked this girl with a relaxed expression and a forest charm.
Xing Xiuyan walked across the covered bridge with her head down, and suddenly looked at the young man who was walking quickly from the Moon Gate, her heart skipped a beat, and she said softly, "Brother Heng, why are you... here."
The girl's eyebrows drooped slightly, Fangxin seemed a little shy.
Jia Heng asked: "Come here from the old lady's house, just walk around, Xiuyan, where did you come from?"
"Come here from Sister Bao, ready to go back." Xing Xiuyan looked at the young man, with curiosity hidden deep in her bright eyes, she pursed her pink lips, and said softly, "Brother Heng, this is this?"
Jia Heng smiled and said: "I have nothing to do at the moment, so I can walk around casually, Xiuyan, the second sister is in Zilingzhou, right?"
"It's in Zilingzhou." Xing Xiuyan nodded and said.
Jia Heng thought for a while and said, "Then let's go and have a look together."
He really has nothing to do. After seeing Yingchun later, he will also go to see Xichun. After coming back for so long, he hasn't seen the two sisters. Besides, there are Tanchun and Xiangyun.
The main reason is that I am too busy, so I can only take the time to see what happens.
Xing Xiuyan gave a "hmm", moved his steps, and followed the boy towards Zilingzhou.
It is the summer season, the trees are beautiful and the summer flowers are in full bloom. Occasionally, there will be cicadas singing by the lakeside with white walls and green willows. Slowly blowing across the lake and the shade of the trees, heat and coolness are intertwined, making people feel a little comfortable and lazy. Looking around, the lake is already sparkling like a pool of green amber.
A dozen or so wild ducks were swimming in the water, occasionally catching silver carp from the lake, quacking happily.
"Sister Xiuyan, the weather is quite hot these days." Jia Heng glanced at the sun-burning sky and said with emotion.
The land in Guanzhong has a high latitude, and the temperature during this period was abnormally high. There were several heavy rains the day before yesterday, but it seemed that the heat was not completely reduced.
Under Xing Xiuyan's willow eyebrows, she glanced at the tall and straight young man with her bright eyes, and said softly, "Brother Heng, it's the dog days these days."
In a few days, the young man in front of him will marry the Princess Xianning and the princess in the palace, and Mrs. Miaoyu is also his confidante.
Even Chai Dai from before was also his confidant...
Jia Heng turned his eyes and looked at the girl who was sweating profusely on her forehead and temples. She handed over a handkerchief and said softly, "Xiuyan, wipe the sweat off her forehead."
In fact, Xing Xiuyan has reached the age of Ji, and may only be a few days younger than Baochai.
Facing that clear gaze, Xing Xiu's smoky white cheeks blushed slightly, took a handkerchief as white as snow, and said softly: "Brother Heng, I have it."
Jia Heng: "..."
He really didn't use a handkerchief to mark it. Since others have it, then he is not used.
Jia Heng wiped the sweat off his cheeks with a handkerchief, and said, "It's cooler in Zilingzhou."
"It's surrounded by water on three sides and shaded by trees. It's much cooler than here." Xing Xiuyan said.
Xing Xiuyan was walking with the young man at the moment, seeing the thoughtful expression on the young man's face, she pursed her pink lips and said softly, "Brother Heng, why are you not busy today?"
Since she came to Jia's house, this young man has been busy with the affairs of the border, and he doesn't see her very often. Of course, he won't become a third-class prince because of this.
Jia Heng said: "In the morning, I received the eunuch in charge of the palace, discussed the wedding ceremony, and then mentioned Baoyu's marriage."
Under Xing Xiuyan's willow eyebrows, her bright eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked, "Brother Bao's marriage?"
Jia Heng briefly narrated what happened just now, and said: "Brother Bao has also reached the age of marriage."
Talking with Xing Xiuyan while walking, originally the mind is also calmed down, this girl is like a mountain forest with cool water and gentle streams, getting along with her, even the mind seems to be much calmer and cooler.
Can't help asking: "Xiuyan, how old are you this year?"
Xing Xiu's Yanyu face was slightly startled, a sense of shame welled up in her heart, and she said softly: "This year is fifteen, and Xu is also sixteen."
Jia Heng thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "Is this someone who hasn't settled yet?"
Xing Xiuyan's bright and beautiful cheeks could not help but a slight blush, and said in a low voice: "Not yet, the marriage is decided by the aunt and the second elder."
Can't help but think of what my aunt was thinking, saying that she wanted to promise herself to this person, but it was gradually delayed due to side matters.
Jia Heng glanced at the girl who had turned her head for some reason, feeling a little strange in her heart.
While the two were talking, they came to Ziling Island. As far as they could see, the windows were lonely, the screens were dark, the flowers and reeds on the shore, the green water chestnuts and water chestnuts in the pool, the breeze was coming, and the fragrance was floating. But there are many autumn days.
Jia Heng couldn't help but hear Chen Li's "Zi Lingzhou" from his previous life, and an unspeakable sense of sadness and sadness rushed over his face.
The word said: The pond was cold overnight in autumn, blowing away the red jade shadow of lotus.Polygonum flowers and water chestnut leaves are full of worries, heavy dews and heavy frosts press the slender stalks.I don't hear the sound of Yongzhou knocking chess, and Yan mud stains the chessboard.The ancients cherished farewell to their friends, but now I am a brotherhood!
Swallow mud stains the chessboard, which is exactly what it means to welcome the spring.
Compared with other springs, he really didn't care much about Yingchun.
Xing Xiuyan at the side saw the young man standing there concentrating, his brows and eyes were a little dazed, and he felt a little curious.
The servant girl, Siqi, came out from Zhuijin Tower, saw the young man at a glance, took a few quick steps, and said happily, "Master, you are here."
Uncle Heng would never come over to look at the girl, but today he came to look at the girl.
Jia Heng looked up at the tall and burly Qin Siqi, wondering if he was with Pan Youan, and asked in surprise, "Siqi, where is your girl?"
Siqi said softly: "Our girl is still taking a nap at the moment, I'll call her right now."
Jia Heng called Siqi, and said in a gentle voice, "Wait until she wakes up from her afternoon nap before calling her."
Saying that, she looked at Xing Xiuyan warmly, and asked, "Cousin Xiuyan."
Xing Xiuyan's bright eyes flickered, she pursed her pink lips, and said softly: "Brother Heng, why don't you come to my residence and have a cup of tea first?"
Jia Heng said: "Okay."
Xing Xiuyan: "..."
How to promise to be so straightforward?
In fact, after Jia Heng took Chaidai to the southeast, he married Xianning and Chanyue, and got Miaoyu as her confidante.
Ordinary people, in Xing Xiuyan's heart, would be equated with lust for money, but based on Jia Heng's illustrious achievements, how can he be equated with lust for money?
Jia Heng and Xing Xiuyan entered the north corner of Zhuijin Building, and entered a spacious and elegant hall. They looked around at the surrounding furnishings, which were plain and elegant. There was a bookcase in the southeast corner, and there were rows of books in the cabinet. Go, somewhat old.
"Brother Heng, sit down first, and I'll pour you tea." Xing Xiuyan lifted a teapot, took the teacup, and poured it into it.
Jia Heng responded softly, then came to the bookcase, looked at the cabinet full of books, picked up one and flipped through it, the yellowed pages were obviously old.
Xing Xiuyan came over with a teacup and said, "Brother Heng, drink some tea."
Jia Heng raised his eyes and asked, "Xiuyan, why are these old books?"
In fact, I vaguely guessed some reasons in my heart.
Xing Xiuyan said softly, "Old books are cheaper, and I bought quite a few."
Jia Heng looked at the girl, and said softly: "How many taels a month is the monthly case in the house, you have bought these books, what do you usually eat and drink?"
Xing Xiuyan said in a soft voice: "Usually, clothes and food are distributed uniformly in the mansion. The monthly bills were originally pocket money, and the garden has always distributed double portions."
Except for the daughters-in-law from Rongguo Mansion like Li Wan, the girls in the Grand View Garden almost all have two monthly jobs, which was set by Qin Keqing at the beginning.
Because it turned out that one was distributed by Baochai after taking over Jia Heng’s business in the outside world, and even he was two taels, and the other was given to Chaidai, Lanxi, Yunqin, and Miao by Qin Keqing, who was still Mrs. Yongninghou. Xiu, Ying Tan, these girls who have not left the pavilion are giving out.
At that time, the meaning was that it was not only to accompany Jia Heng to talk to relieve boredom, but also to send it to Chai Dai and Lan Xi to show the meaning of being a big wife.
It can be said that compared with the original book, whether it is economic treatment or fun for the girls, the Grand View Garden can be described as the general existence of heaven.
At this time, Si Qi carried a watermelon cut into teeth, entered the room and said: "Master, Grandma Xing took one of the pieces, saying it is to subsidize Miss Cousin's family."
Jia Heng looked up at Xing Xiuyan, with some surprise in his eyes.
This is recorded in the original book. In winter, Xing Xiuyan was wearing thin old clothes, and then met Baochai in the gazebo. After questioning, Yueli was taken away by the Xing family, and he could only live on the pawned clothes.
Because Xing Xiuyan and Xue Biao were married at that time, Baochai said that the clothes came first before the person came.
Later, Keqing told him that he liked Xiuyan's character, so he cared for Xiuyan a lot.
Not only Keqing, but Sister Feng also liked Xing Xiuyan's character very much.
Xing Xiuyan lowered her eyebrows and said softly: "It should be, I have two taels a month and it's enough."
Jia Heng put down the book in his hand, looked at the girl who seemed to be out of the clouds, and said: "Xiuyan, most of these old books are illegible due to damp and mildew. If Xiuyan wants to read some books, please make a list for me. I sent someone to buy it."
Xing Xiuyan raised her clear eyes when she heard the words, and said in a voice, "How can you bother Big Brother Heng?"
For some reason, the young girl's heart felt shy when she met the scorching gaze of the young man.
Jia Heng sized up the young girl with a relaxed expression, and said in a clear voice: "You live in the mansion, and you usually look at these old books when you read them at night. It's easy to damage your eyes when you read them at night."
Xing Xiuyan let out a "hmm", but she couldn't help being moved when she heard the soft words.
Siqi smiled and said: "Master, Miss Biao, the melons are ready, let's eat them, these are from Jingzhen, they can also quench your thirst."
She heard from her aunt that Grandma Xing seemed to want Miss Biao to be a concubine to Uncle Heng. If something good happens in the future, the situation of their girls will be much better.
Jia Heng said softly: "Xiuyan, let's use watermelon first."
Without saying much else, he picked up the watermelon on the side and started to eat it.
Xing Xiuyan said "Hum", then took the watermelon and ate it in small bites.
Jia Heng was eating watermelon, the juice was flowing, he ate two teeth, it was sweet and delicious, he felt quite happy.
Xing Xiuyan looked at the boy with melon juice on his face, handed it over to prevent the handkerchief, and said, "Brother Heng, handkerchief."
Jia Heng looked up at the handkerchief handed over by the girl, smiled and said, "No, I have it too."
He took the veil and wiped his mouth.
Xing Xiu's smoky, beautiful and jade face was stunned, and then rosy and rosy, this was clearly what she said just now.
this person...
While the two were talking, they could hear the voices of Siqi and Mrs. Xing outside.
Jia Heng moved slightly and put down the teacup.
Not long after, Mrs. Xing, accompanied by the mothers of Wang Shanbao's family and Qin Xian's family, entered the Zhuijin Building, looked at the young man, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, I went to Ning Mansion to look for you just now, don't want to When you arrive at Xiuyan, it will save me from running around again."
Jia Heng nodded and asked, "The old lady is okay."
"Everyone is gone, everyone went back to rest." Mrs. Xing smiled profusely on her fair face, and then glanced at Xing Xiuyan who was eating watermelon.
At this time, Xing Xiuyan got up, saluted Mrs. Xing Yingying, and said, "I have seen my aunt."
Mrs. Xing looked at Xing Xiuyan and said with a smile, "Okay, how did you and Brother Heng meet?"
The child had already found Brother Heng without saying a word, which saved her a lot of trouble.
Xing Xiuyan was uncomfortable being looked at by Mrs. Xing's thoughtful eyes, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "Auntie, it's Brother Heng who I met on the road, and came here together."
Mrs. Xing nodded, and said: "I happen to have something to do with your Brother Heng, Xiuyan is here."
As he spoke, he took the girl's slender hand.
Jia Heng looked at Xing with a puzzled expression at this moment, not knowing why.
Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "Brother Heng, our Xiuyan is not young anymore, and he is also Xu Ren's age. I want to find a good family for her."
At this moment, Xing Xiu's smoky cheeks were flushed, and she felt her heart pounding, and she wanted to break free from Mrs. Xing's hand.
But Xing Xiuyan herself is a good girl who is safe at any time. In the original book, she also listened to the arrangements of Sister Feng, Aunt Xue, and Mrs. Xing about her promise to Xue Biao.
Jia Heng nodded, wondering: "What does the eldest lady mean by that?"
Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "I see that you don't have any servants around you, Brother Heng. You see, Xiuyan is well educated and reasonable, and has read a lot of books. Why don't I make you a concubine so that you can continue the lineage of Ningguo?" Incense."
At this moment, Xing Xiuyan's cheeks were blushing with embarrassment, and she said angrily, "Auntie."
Rao is a girl who is generous and generous, but at this moment listening to the continuation of the incense, she is also a little ashamed.
"What's there to be shy about? I told you about it at the beginning of the year." Mrs. Xing took Xing Xiuyan's plain hand and said, "There is no such a good match as Brother Heng."
Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at the tall girl, with a calm expression on his face, and said in a clear voice, "What does Xiuyan think?"
In fact, he is more advocating free love, and he was a little surprised to encounter this kind of "blind date situation" all of a sudden.
Fortunately, at this time, there are no high-frequency words such as "slow heat" and "depending on your attitude".
Xing Xiuyan's tender body trembled, and under the curved willow eyebrows, she looked at the young man with bright eyes, those eyebrows and eyes like those of the clouds, filled with sorrow and doubt.
Why are you asking her what she thinks?Does her opinion matter?
"Brother Heng, you asked her what a little girl is doing." Mrs. Xing thought that the boy was not happy, and the smile on her face froze for a while, but she recovered immediately, and said: "Marriage is a big event, the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker How can I let her, a little girl, decide, Xiuyan, I have made an agreement with your parents, and they all agree."
Xing's father's name is Xing Zhong, and he is Mrs. Xing's elder brother. In addition, Mrs. Xing has a younger brother named Xing Dequan, who lives in Shenjing City and likes to drink and gamble.
Because Mrs. Xing is the head wife of a wealthy family, Xing Xiuyan naturally listened to Mrs. Xing's arrangement in the marriage, and had also talked to Xing's father and Xing's mother before.
If it was an ordinary person, the Xing family might have some doubts about being a concubine, but it would be a bit overwhelming for a small family to be a concubine for a duke like Jia Heng.
Xing Xiuyan lowered her head slightly, her jade cheeks were pink and greasy, her blush spread all the way to her neck, her heart jumped up unconsciously, and she said in a low voice, "I'll listen to my aunt."
Brother Heng asked her what she was thinking but she didn't know what to do?
Don't you listen to your parents and elders when it comes to marriage?
It can be said that this is the marriage of women in the feudal era, and there are only a few people who can stop their parents' arrangement, and these people obviously do not include Xing Xiuyan.
Jia Heng looked at the girl who lowered her head slightly, her brows and eyes were full of shyness, knowing that it was more of a girl's instinctive shyness, and said in a clear voice, "I really like Xiuyan's calm personality."
When Xing Xiuyan heard the words, her delicate body trembled violently, her heart was full of surprise, she forgot her shame for a moment, and looked at the boy with bright and clear eyes.
like?He likes her?
It's not that Xing Xiuyan has a crush on Jia Heng, but as Miaoyu's best friend, she knows Jia Heng very well.
In the past, Jia Heng never teased Xing Xiuyan. Of course, Jia Heng's favorite words can be replaced by synonyms for appreciation, but the ancients obviously did not talk about this.
Mrs. Xing was overjoyed when she heard the words, she saw a prosperous smile on her fair face, and said: "I just said, our family's Xiuyan is born with natural beauty, gentle and quiet, so people like it."
Secretly thought, are there any men in the Jia family who are not lustful?
If they don't mess around, then the two girls Xue Lin won't all fall into Brother Heng's hands.
Sure enough, she had thought about her niece a long time ago.
Jia Heng thought for a while, took out a jade pendant from his waist, and said: "Give this to Xiuyan, it's been decided in advance, don't worry about the rest."
He was not in a hurry to accept Xing Xiuyan to pass through the door, he just decided on this matter first.
The matter of Baoyu discussing marriage today actually reminded me that Xing Xiuyan is the same age as Baochai, already fifteen or sixteen years old, that is to say, she is an older young woman in the garden, and she may have to give priority to solving marriage problems at any time that batch.
If Sister Feng and Aunt Xue had a temporary idea to match Xue Biao and Xing Xiuyan, Mrs. Xing thought it would be feasible.
At that time, he obviously couldn't say... I don't agree with this marriage, it would be too grassy.
As for the relationship, it will not be too late to develop it slowly.
In fact, he felt that Xiuyan was more out of a girl's shyness at the moment, and maybe she just had a good impression of him, not necessarily liking him that much.
But the interesting thing about the relationship between men and women is precisely the process of disapproval at the beginning and gradually becoming broken.
In other words, even Zhen Lan is more Mu Qiang towards him now, and she has more Xiaojiujiu in her heart than anyone else, not even as good as Zhen Xi's kind of pure love and attachment.
As for Zhen Qing, let alone, as Zhen Lan's Pro version, she loves herself from the beginning to the end. Now because she has a child and some of his means, she loves and hates him, that's why she loves her. I saw some sincerity.
A person's sincerity is a very precious thing. Even a couple who have lived together for more than ten years may not be in love with each other.
The so-called test jade still needs three days, and the debate needs to wait seven years.
And he likes to squeeze oil out of stones. In fact, I think there are only a few people who are truly pure and flawless to him, and whose love is stronger than gold.
The main relationship itself needs to be managed layer by layer, just like polishing a jade stone, removing the chaff and saving the essence, but without an unforgettable experience, there can't be a heart-to-heart relationship, so we can't be harsh.
Mrs. Xing blinked her eyes, she was stunned for a moment on her fair face, she didn't react for a long time, she was overjoyed immediately, and said with a smile: "It seems that it is a true fate, then this jade pendant is destined."
This is a niece who really likes his family. This is really a good fate, a good marriage.
With this Uncle Heng sitting in charge in the future, her Xing family will also enjoy a lot of glory.
It can be said that the Xing family is not embarrassed in Jia's family now. At the beginning of the year when Jia Heng was only a first-class Marquis of Yongning, he had already thought about betrotting his daughter to Jia Heng as a concubine, and now he is a third-class prince with great power. .
Mrs. Xing has four brothers and sisters, and many of her relatives live in the capital. Although they are not in a pinch, they are living a tight life and often need Mrs. Xing's support.
Mrs. Xing was overjoyed, and while instructing Wang Shanbao's family to get the jade pendant, she asked Xing Xiuyan, "Xiuyan, this hairpin of yours is also for Brother Heng."
Saying that, he took off the hairpin from Xing Xiuyan's temple hair.
At this moment, Xing Xiuyan's white and greasy cheeks were already as red as rouge, and her heart was beating non-stop, letting Mrs. Xing arrange her.
At this time, it is impossible for the girl to say that I do not agree to this marriage, or that she is still a little dizzy.
There is only one thought in his mind, why is he so eager?
At this moment, Wang Shanbao came forward with a smile and said, "Master, Yupei."
The eldest grandma married her niece to the Duke of the country, and she will have support in the mansion from now on.
Jia Heng handed the jade pendant over, and after a while, also took the hairpin from Wang Shanbao's hand, looked at Mrs. Xing calmly and said: "Then make it like this first, wait a year and a half before going through the door."
Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "That's the reason. Brother Heng should be busy with the wedding first."
Lian Gongli married the princess and princess to him, and see how he was robbed.
Well, she is considered to be related to the Tian family?
At this moment, Xing Xiuyan was already holding the jade pendant, a blush appeared on her peaceful jade face, her white teeth were tightly pressed against her pink lips, and she was still a little dizzy at the moment.
Just like that, she is going to marry Brother Heng in the future?
But how to tell Master Miaoyu in the future?What would Master Miaoyu think of her?
At this moment, the girl's heart was in a mess, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
In fact, it can also be seen that the girl herself has a temperament of going with the flow, and she is a little bit stronger in accepting Yingchun's resignation.
……
……
Zilingzhou, [-]nd Floor, Zhuijin Building
Yingchun was falling asleep on the soft couch, the girl was lying on the couch, she didn't know what she had dreamed of, her face was as rosy as a cloud of clouds, she screamed, she opened her eyes suddenly, only to feel that her little clothes were already drenched with sweat.
His eyes were lost, his cheeks were hot as fire.
What kind of messed up dream was she having just now?She actually dreamed that Big Brother Heng was holding her and playing chess...
In other words, the girl has reached the age of Fengyue Qisi, and she dreams a lot at night, and only one teenager of the right age can dream in the entire Grand View Garden.
