With the arrival of spring, everything recovers. After the spring rain, the climate gradually warms up, and the people in Beijing also take off their thick winter clothes and put on more romantic spring clothes. Ban Hua and Rong Xia walked on the street at a distance of half a step. Looking at the passers-by, Ban Hua felt that she was also alive.
"Selling silk flowers, the most fashionable silk flowers in the capital this year, five cents a piece, does the little lady want one?"
Ban Hua stopped and looked at the old woman on the corner of the street. She had gray hair and was wrapped in a tattered blue cloth. The rough servants of the imperial government do not know how to wear this kind of flower, so naturally it is not fashionable.
The old woman wanted to persuade Ban Hua to buy one too, but seeing that although she only wore silver hairpins and a plain cotton skirt, she knew that she was so noble and elegant, and the men around her were well-dressed. The silk flowers made by them can't be looked down upon by the other party.
When the watery girl approached, the old woman's somewhat cloudy eyes could see clearly that the silver hairpin in this little girl's hair was exquisite in workmanship, not like ordinary products.
Ban Hua saw that the silk flowers in the basket were brightly colored, and none of them could be worn by her. She bought two and put them in her hands, then turned to look at Rong Xia, "Come on, keep your head down."
Rong Xia knew what she wanted to do as soon as she saw her movements, she turned around and wanted to run, but was grabbed by the sleeves of Ban Hua, and under the violent suppression, she was forced to pin two large red flowers on the left and right of her hair crown. flower.
Seeing this scene, the servants of the Uncle's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion almost couldn't help laughing.
The old woman looked at Ban Hua and Rong Xia with a smile, and said in a kind voice, "Young Master and Zun Furen have such a good relationship." After saying this, she noticed that Ban Hua was wearing her unmarried daughter's bun, and quickly apologized: "My old body and my eyes are dim, and I said the wrong thing. I hope the young master and the young lady don't mind."
"No problem," Rong Xia smiled and looked at Ban Hua, the red flower on her head swaying, "She is my future wife."
Hearing the words, the old woman smiled and said, "I wish the two of you a good relationship for a hundred years, and give birth to your son early."
"Thank you," Rong Xia took out a piece of broken silver and put it in the old woman's hand, "Can you sell me all these silk flowers?"
"This is too much money... I can't make it, I can't make it." The old woman waved her hands hastily, "My basket is not worth much."
"It's okay." Rong Xia motioned for the guard to take the basket of silk flowers in the old woman's hand, "Farewell."
"Thank you, thank you very much." The old woman thanked Rong Xia very gratefully, until the two of them walked away, still talking good things about the two of them.
"Hey," Ban Hua pointed at the top of Rong Xia's head with a smile: "Do you really want to wear this to eat noodle soup?"
"If she likes it, it doesn't matter if she wears it." Rong Xia stopped and turned to look at Ban Hua, her eyes full of tolerance.
Ban Hua didn't have much resistance to this kind of beauty, and the other party still looked at her with such gentle eyes, she coughed dryly: "Let's take it off."
Rong Xia buried her head in front of her: "Then there will be labor."
Ban Hua reached out and picked the flowers, put them in the basket carried by the guard, and then snickered: "Young Master Rong, the little girl is your equal, why does Young Master Rong bow to me?"
Rong Xia wasn't annoyed when she heard these narrow words, but took a step back and said to Ban Luo deeply: "Little lady is the future lady, and I'm happy to give her a salute."
Ban Hua suddenly blushed, the man who spoke well and looked good was so foul that she couldn't hold it back.
The handsome men and women with smiling eyebrows are very easy to attract people's attention even in the noisy streets.
Xie Qilin looked at the men and women who were laughing and blushing not far away, and stopped unconsciously. He never thought that a man like Rong Junpo could let a woman move his hair. For men, their heads cannot be touched casually, especially women.
A good-looking gentleman, but a woman put a low-quality silk flower on her head. On this street where people come and go, wouldn't he feel that a man's self-esteem has been violated
When the woman in front of Rong Junpo turned around, Xie Qilin was stunned, Ban Hua
How did Ban Hua and Rong Junpo get together? He was secretly shocked in his heart, seeing that the two of them continued to walk forward with their guards, and they followed by ghosts and gods.
"The Taoist priest is injured?" Ban Hua followed behind Rong Xia, listening to the thrilling and bizarre story, and couldn't help but widen her eyes, "What's the matter? His senior brother came to save him, or his junior sister came to save him. ?"
"It's his fiancée," Rong Xia noticed that the guard behind him made an imperceptible gesture towards him, glanced back, and continued to smile to Ban Hua, "When the fiancée arrived, it was snowing heavily in the Tianshan Mountains. The whole world is white..."
"Wait!" Ban Ma looked at Rong Xia suspiciously, "Does the Taoist priest also have a fiancée?"
"Of course, there are different schools of Taoism, and some schools can be married," Rong Xia saw a carriage coming in front of him, and stretched out his hand around Ban Hua, "Be careful."
"It's alright." Ban Hua looked at the carriage in confusion when he saw that the carriage was tied with a white cloth with the logo of Prince Hui's mansion engraved on it.
The carriage stopped in front of her, and soon the curtain was lifted, revealing the Queen of Kangning in linen filial attire.
"I have seen County Master Fule, Cheng Anbo, please forgive me for the filial piety on my body. I cannot meet the two of you." With a polite smile.
Ban Hua returned a salute: "The county owner seems to have lost a lot of money, please pay more attention to rest." Although she didn't like this family very much, but seeing such a beautiful and beautiful woman lost her parents overnight, the emperor and queen of the harem I don't want to see her, but she has to live in the palace. She looks very pitiful, so she even speaks a lot softer.
"Thank you, County Master Fule." A sincere smile appeared on Kang Ning's thin face.
When she experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships, she realized that the coldness she encountered before was not coldness at all, and it was the present day that made her truly feel the torment. Those little sisters in the past, the sons of noble families who pursued her, are now avoiding her like snakes and scorpions, as if she could bring bad luck to them as long as she was close to them.
As her carriage drove along, she clearly encountered several familiar people, but they avoided them from a distance, as if they had never known each other.
Only Ban Hua treated her as usual, even a little pitiful.
She used to hate others to pity her, and she didn't even want to see a look in her eyes, but only now did she realize that it was really precious to have someone pity her.
She glanced at Rong Xia, gave him a slight nod, and lowered the curtain.
This is no longer the person she can think of. Instead of thinking about it, it is better to pretend that she has never seen this person, and has never been moved by him.
Watching the carriage go away, Ban Hua suddenly remembered that Corning's carriage was actually driven by four horses, and the four horses looked like old horses that were about to be eliminated. She frowned, "Although people take tea to cool off, these people are too much. They are such a beauty. After so many days, they have been sparred to become like this."
Rong Xia listened to Ban Hua's words and remembered that she had quarreled with Kangning County Master when she was hunting in autumn. She didn't seem to hold any grudges
Seeing his expression, Ban Hua knew what he was thinking, so he explained in a low voice: "As long as I take revenge on the spot, I won't hold revenge. Generally, what I write down is that I failed to take revenge. "
Rong Xia was silent, and suddenly felt that... it also makes sense
"Do you have any revenge that you haven't had time to avenge?" Rong Xia put his hands behind him, looking like a gentleman, but what he said was not a gentleman at all, "Speak out and I will help you find a solution."
Ban Hua blinked: "This... isn't it suitable for a gentleman like you?"
"I'm not a gentleman," Rong Xia chuckled, "If the price of being a gentleman is that you can't even protect your own people, what's the use of me wanting this gentleman's reputation?"
"Then I really said it," Ban Hua looked around, making sure no one could hear her, before covering her mouth and whispering, "I don't really like the Xie family, the Shi family, and the Yin family. people."
Rong Xia didn't ask Ban Hua why she didn't like her grandfather's family, but said, "The Xie family is not well behaved, the Shi family is proud of their merits, and the Yin family is only profit-seeking. They do have their own shortcomings. No wonder you don't like them."
As a good man, when a woman says she doesn't like someone, don't ask why she doesn't like it, and don't say what the advantages of this family are. This will only add fuel to the fire. A smart man has long understood the importance of "common hatred". Even if he has no hatred with the other party, he must pick out the other party's small faults to echo the woman.
In fact, a woman understands the big truth of those rules and regulations better than anyone else, but this does not mean that she likes men to contradict her.
Rong Xia's attitude pleased Ban Hua very well, she whispered: "Actually, they are not particularly hateful, even Xie Wanyu can't get along with me, Shi Feixian is also full of bad water, as for the Yin family..." She snorted, "I Too lazy to talk about this family."
Rong Xia listened to Ban Hua's words with a smile, and soon the two of them arrived at the noodle shop. The noodle shop is not big, but the inside is very clean, and the decoration is also very careful. There are elegant screens between each table, so that guests can't see the appearance of the people at the next table eating.
"There is no box here, can you get used to it?" Rong Xia helped Ban Hua's arm through his sleeve, "Be careful of the steps, it's a little wet here."
"Young Master Rong, are you here?" The waiter saw Rong Xia, and immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and saw a young woman with a dignified beauty beside him, the smile on his face became even brighter, "Please come this way, You still eat beef noodle soup."
"No, give me two bowls of vegetable noodle soup today, and just give the other guards beef noodle soup," Rong Xia thought for a while.
Seeing that the girl beside Rong Xia was wearing plain clothes, the waiter immediately understood, and hurriedly replied, "Don't worry, there will never be a drop of oil."
Ban Hua and Rong Xia walked to the wooden table behind the screen and sat down. Except for Du Jiu and Ruyi who followed into this cubicle, everyone else went to the other cubicle.
As soon as the two sat down, they heard someone chatting next to them, talking about the marriage between the Xie family and the royal family.
"Tell me, is this girl from the Xie family a little evil? Ever since she got engaged with the second prince, there have been incidents in the royal family. The eldest princess was assassinated, and Prince Hui and his wife would burn to death in the middle of the night. Isn't this evil?"
The author has something to say: Rongxia: Who said I was a gentleman
