Chapter 535: Ouyang Wanling's thoughts
On the embroidery floor, Ouyang Wanling sat by the window with her knees and looked at the morning scenery outside, but she let out a long sigh, the last time Zhao Yan came to Fuzhong, she thought that Qi came to find herself deliberately, but she didn't expect that it was to discuss the matter of running a newspaper with her grandfather, and Zhao Yan came and went in a hurry, and she didn't say a few words to her, which made her a little lost.
"Ninth sister, it's time for breakfast!" At this moment, Yan Mo, the personal maid beside Ouyang Wanling, came in with breakfast and said, Ouyang Xiu went out early today, Xue got up late, Yan Mo knew that Ouyang Wanling had something on his mind, so he sent breakfast to the embroidery building.
"Well, Yanmo, you put down breakfast, I'll eat it later!" Ouyang Wanling replied softly, but her body didn't even move, during this time she had been waiting for Zhao Yan to take the initiative to come to the door to set a day to admit her to the door, but now there was no movement, which also made her very worried, where is there still an appetite to eat?
Seeing the appearance of her little lady, Yan Mo couldn't help but sigh, when Ouyang Wanling had lovesickness with Zhao Yan, she also looked like she didn't think about tea and dinner, if it continued like this, I am afraid that she would definitely fall ill again in the end.
Thinking of this, Yan Mo, who had put the food on the table, gently stepped forward and said to Ouyang Wanling: "Ninth sister, breakfast is already cold, so you better eat it while it's hot, otherwise if you let the old man and the old lady know, you will definitely have to worry again." ”
Hearing Yanmo's persuasion, Ouyang Wanling also thought that her grandfather and grandmother were old, and their health was not very good, and if she worried about herself again, it would seem that she was too unfilial. Thinking of this, Ouyang Wanling finally stood up and sat down at the table, which also made Yan Mo very happy, and then gently opened the lid on the porcelain basin and smiled: "It's hot now." I know that the ninth sister is upset, so I specially boiled rock sugar mung bean soup, and there are also soup dumplings made by me, so I must eat more later! ”
Yan Mo said on his lips, and kept giving Ouyang Wanling mung bean soup in his hand, and then put the soup bag in front of her. Ouyang Wanling picked up chopsticks and picked up a soup bag. I put it on my mouth and bit the skin and took a sip, and immediately felt delicious, and I couldn't help but smile and said to Yanmo: "Yanmo, this soup dumpling tastes the same as the soup dumpling in the Junwangfu, didn't you learn it from Ying'er's sister's cook?" ”
"Giggles, I know that I can't hide it from the mouth of the ninth sister, I saw that the ninth sister likes to eat very much, so I learned from the cook to make it for the ninth sister, but I don't know if the slave maid makes it better than the county king's mansion?" Yan Mo didn't want to mention the county king's mansion. It's just that Ouyang Wanling mentioned it first, and she could only follow her words.
"Well, Yanmo is ingenious, and the soup dumplings you make taste similar to those in the Junwang's Mansion, but when you eat in the Junwang's Mansion, Ying'er's sister and they are all there, and the lively eating tastes sweeter!" At the end, Ouyang Wanling remembered the scene of eating when she lived in the county king. Speaking of which, there is no rule of eating and sleeping when eating in the county king's mansion, and the family is lively when eating. At first, I was a little unaccustomed to it, but now I miss it very much.
Seeing Ouyang Wanling's nostalgic look on her face, Yan Mo next to her also showed a wry smile helplessly, in fact, she sometimes misses her life in the County King's Mansion, and even she can't tell the reason for this, but she just feels that staying in the County King's Mansion seems to be very comfortable. Even sometimes she was particularly envious of the little bean sprouts and Mixue in the county king's mansion, because she had never seen a family with more free people than them.
Maybe it was because of the thought of the Junwang Mansion that Ouyang Wanling only ate one soup dumpling, and then drank half a bowl of mung bean soup and no longer had an appetite, Yan Mo persuaded her a few times. She really couldn't eat it, and in the end, Yan Mo had to pack up her things, while Ouyang Wanling was still sitting by the window with her hands and knees in a daze.
In this way, until noon, when Yan Mo brought lunch again, Ouyang Wanling still maintained the posture of the morning and remained motionless, which made Yan Mo really worried, and Ouyang Wanling ate less at lunch, only ate a few bites and stopped, Yan Mo had already made up his mind about this, if Ouyang Wanling was still like this at night, then he must sue the old man and the old lady.
However, just when Yan Mo sent Ouyang Wanling's leftover lunch to the kitchen, and was about to go back, he suddenly saw the maid next to the old lady Xue running in a hurry, and when he saw her, his face also showed joy and shouted: "Yan Mo, go and inform the ninth sister, the princess of Guangyang County is visiting, and the old lady asks her to go and greet her!" ”
"The princess is here?" Yan Mo was stunned for a moment when she heard the news, and then she also showed a surprised expression, and immediately turned around and ran in the direction of the embroidery building, although she was not sure, but the county prince would definitely not come to visit the old lady and the ninth sister for no reason, and it was likely that she came to discuss the time when the ninth sister passed the door.
Thinking of the above, Yan Mo couldn't help but be more excited, and his steps were faster, as long as the time for crossing the door was set, then the ninth sister would no longer have to wait, and there would be no such situation of not thinking about tea and dinner.
"Wow~" Yan Mo ran up the embroidery building with brisk steps, but woke up Ouyang Wanling, who was contemplative, and looked at the direction of the stairs with some dissatisfaction, only to see Yan Mo running up to her sweating profusely and shouting to her: "Ninth sister, get ready, the princess of the county has come to see you!" ”
"The princess of the county, which princess of the county?" Ouyang Wanling didn't react at first and asked, after all, there are not a few county princesses in Tokyo City, and there are more than a dozen county princesses she knows, but then she reacted and hurriedly asked again, "Yanmo, are you talking about Sister Ying'er?" ”
"It's the princess of Guangyang County, now the old lady has gone to greet her, just wait for the ninth sister to go!" Yan Mo also said with a look of ecstasy, she and Ouyang Wanling are called master servants, but in fact, they are sisters, now that Ouyang Wanling's marriage has been settled, she is naturally happier than anyone else, not to mention that she will definitely marry together, and then she will be able to stay in the county king's mansion forever, and she no longer has to envy the little bean sprouts and Mixue.
"Yikes! Fast...... Prepare my clothes and mirrors for me, I don't look like this! Ouyang Wanling got the exact answer, and immediately stood up excitedly from the window and said, she also vaguely guessed Cao Ying's intention, but now she was wearing civilian clothes, and she was facing the sky, and her face was even a little haggard because of insomnia, so she naturally had to dress up before she could go out.
Yan Mo also agreed when he heard this, and then found Ouyang Wanling's clothes to help her change them, and painted makeup on the glass mirror sent by Zhao Yan, and the two hurried to the old lady Xue, after all, Cao Ying is a female dependent, and there are no other men in Ouyang Xiu's mansion, so Cao Ying didn't need to be received in the front hall after she arrived, and was directly taken to the inner house by Mrs. Xue to talk.
"Sister Ying'er is here, why don't you notify me in advance, so that I can get ready!" As soon as Ouyang Wanling entered Xue's room, she immediately saw Cao Ying, who was sitting at the table with a big belly talking to her grandmother, and stepped forward with a happy face.
"Hehe, my little sister came in a hurry this time, so I didn't come in time to notify her, but Sister Wanling is not an outsider, so I came to visit directly." When Cao Ying saw Ouyang Wanling coming in, she also stood up with a smile and said.
"That is, Ying'er and Wanling have known each other since childhood, and their relationship is closer than that of sisters, and they will be a family in the future. Xue Shi also smiled at this time and said, just now she and Cao Ying were just chatting, and did not talk about Ouyang Wanling's entry into the county palace, but when she heard Cao Ying say that Ouyang Wanling was not an outsider, her heart was even more happy, because this had already indicated Cao Ying's intention, Ouyang Wanling's face was also red when she heard this, but the joy in her eyes couldn't hide it.
"Mrs. Ouyang, speaking of which, Wanling and my husband are also married in heaven, originally my husband had long wanted to marry Sister Wanling, but as a sister, it was really a little too aggrieved to be a concubine, and the husband admired Ouyang Xianggong the most, so he wanted to mention this matter several times, but he retreated again, so I had to mention this matter to the old lady, I don't know what Mrs. wants?" Cao Ying smiled and told her intentions.
Hearing that Cao Ying really wanted Ouyang Wanling to pass through the door, although the Xue family had already guessed, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this time, and then said with a smile: "The county king is talented, and what is even more rare is that he takes care of his family very much, and never messes with flowers and grass outside, speaking of which, the girls in Tokyo City all regard the county king as the best gentleman, and Wanling and the county king have long been entangled, just like Ying'er said, it is a marriage made in heaven, no one can resist it, and Wanling's age is not young, so it is better to pass the door as soon as possible, I also want to hug my great-grandson as soon as possible!" ”
Ouyang Wanling heard her grandmother and Cao Ying discussing her marriage with Zhao Yan, and her little face turned red at the moment, and she was not easy to express her opinion on this matter, let alone leave, so she could only endure her shame, lowered her head and sat there motionless.
"Since the old lady doesn't object, then I think it's better to set it on the seventh day of the next month, I've already let people calculate, that day is a good day, and there is still more than half a month before now, so that both sides have more time to prepare!" Cao Ying smiled again and said.
"Then on the seventh day of the next month, Wanling hasn't thought about tea and dinner these days, and now that the date is set, she should be able to take care of her body!" Xue Shi looked at her granddaughter with some pity when she said this, it turned out that she already knew about Ouyang Wanling's situation in the past few days, and she was originally very worried, but now that the day of passing through the door has been set, she is in a good mood, and she actually made fun of this matter, which made Ouyang Wanling's face even more red, and her little head was even lower and wanted to be buried in her chest.
