The Meng family is giving the dowry today, so tomorrow will be the day when Yun Wenfang and the eldest miss of the Meng family get married
Yelu Sage seemed to be very interested in these customs of the Han people. He had been standing by the window and looked down, but he had not heard of books.
The Meng family can be regarded as a prestigious family in the whole of Yanbei, and they marry their daughters very grandly. Although there is no way to marry Ren Yaoqi, they must have done a great job. This can be seen from the lively noise from outside the window. It was heard that many guests who had been drinking tea and listening to books in the teahouse also flocked to the street to watch the excitement.
Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi sat there and didn't move, they were not people who liked liveliness.
By the time the dowry-delivery team had passed, normal order had gradually resumed outside the street, and the tea guests who were watching the excitement had all returned, but in twos and threes they were also talking about the marriage between the Yun family and the Meng family.
Yelu Sage also came back, and still said in her somewhat stiff Chinese: "It's so lively for you Han women to get married." This seemed to be a bit of a sigh.
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin did not continue this topic with her, they just smiled when they heard the words.
The storyteller in the teahouse finally stopped talking about the deeds of the old Yanbei King, and instead talked about a story of a marriage made in heaven. Yelu Sage seemed to like it very much. He listened intently while drinking tea. will smile.
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin had nothing to do today, so they also spent time with the newly arrived Liao princess. When it was almost noon, Xiao Jinglin ordered someone to go to a nearby restaurant to deliver some food, and she was too lazy to go from the restaurant to the restaurant.
This morning and noon were very leisurely, and nothing special happened other than seeing the Meng family giving the dowry. Originally, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin also suspected that Yelv Sage wanted to do something while going out, but Yelv Sage had been obediently staying in the teahouse, and there was no change.
After lunch, the three of them came out of the teahouse. Yelu Sage was also very interested in the various shops on the street, but she saw that neither Ren Yaoqi nor Xiao Jinglin wanted to get off, nor did she propose to get off. The carriage goes to the shop. But when passing by a blacksmith shop, Xiao Jinglin asked the driver to stop.
"I reforged a dagger here before. Since I passed by here, I'll go down and see how it goes." Xiao Jinglin is very keen to collect various weapons, and likes to draw pictures of weapons by herself and let them build them accordingly.
Yelu Sage's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "Can I go take a look?"
Xiao Jinglin glanced at her, thought about it and nodded, then turned to Ren Yaoqi and said, "How about waiting for us in the Duobao Pavilion not far in front of you? You are not interested in weapons, and it is very hot inside, I'll come out to find you soon." Xiao Jinglin was worried that the weapons shop were full of reckless men, especially the guys who worked there might be shirtless, she was afraid that she would scare Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi nodded and smiled: "Okay, then I will wait for you at Duobao Pavilion."
Duobao Pavilion is the largest jewelry store in Yunyang City. When the female relatives of some big families go out, other shops are not easy to browse, but Duobao Pavilion can be visited.
Xiao Jinglin and Yelu Sage got off the carriage, Ren Yaoqi let the carriage go a few steps forward, and went to the Duobao Pavilion not far from the blacksmith shop.
They just came out after eating, and there was no business in Duobao Pavilion at this time. There were only three or two female customers in the store outside looking at jewelry.
Ren Yaoqi's status is different now. When she got off the carriage, the female shopkeeper of Duobao Pavilion went out to greet her in person, and greeted her respectfully into the store. There is a tea room for guests to rest in the store. If Ren Yaoqi wants to buy anything, she doesn't need to go to the store outside to choose it. She only needs to say what she wants, and the shopkeeper will naturally let people bring things into the tea room inside. Yao period selection.
Ren Yaoqi came here just to find a place to sit, and he didn't have anything to buy, but since he's already here, he can't really go out empty-handed, so he asked the shopkeeper to take some recent fashionable bead flowers to see. . Not long ago, when Ren Yaohua's daughter was full moon, Ren Yaoqi heard that Lei Pan'er's birthday was coming soon. Although she had prepared several precious gifts, she thought that Pan'er looked very cute wearing pearl flowers. I plan to give her two more pairs of beautiful beads.
The shopkeeper quickly brought up five or six trays, each with ten pairs of bead flowers. Ren Yaoqi took a look and found that the beads used for collecting bead flowers are very good, and the styles are also very novel. Then came a bit of interest, thinking about picking a few more pairs to go back.
She was carrying the pearl flowers seriously, but she heard someone talking outside, it seemed that there were guests. The shopkeeper was accompanying Ren Yaoqi to pick pearls and flowers, and then whispered to the man that there were distinguished guests today, and he would not accept other guests for the time being.
Not wanting the guy to go out for a while and come back, he whispered a few words to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper glanced at Ren Yaoqi hesitantly after hearing that.
Seeing this, Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "What's the matter?"
The shopkeeper smiled apologetically, "Young madam, we are naturally not good at receiving foreign guests when you are here, but the second and third misses of the Yun family came outside. They said they recognized you, look..."
Hearing this, Ren Yaoqi raised his eyebrows secretly, but nodded with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Yun's family, let them in. I'm just here to sit and pick some gadgets, your business can be done, you don't have to. Take care of me."
The shopkeeper hurriedly responded, and then instructed the man.
After a while, the curtain of the tea room was lifted, and Yun Qiuping and Yun Qiufang entered.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi, Yun Qiuping bowed her head and bowed her head in due diligence, still looking dumb. Yun Qiufang also saluted, but said with a smile: "It turns out that the young lady is here. I said who has such a big face to make Duobao Pavilion not even do business."
No matter what it was, it came out of Yun Qiufang's mouth, and for some reason it sounded awkward.
Ren Yaoqi naturally didn't care about a little girl, nodded at them, and smiled: "I didn't expect to meet two of them, what a coincidence. Are you here to pick jewelry?"
Yun Qiuping smiled shyly, and Yun Qiufang pouted, "Yes, I heard that Duobao Pavilion released a batch of new products in excellent condition yesterday. I will accompany the second sister to pick out some dowries."
In fact, for a big family like the Yun family, if they want to marry a daughter, there are too many fun things to do at the bottom of the box, and there is no need to go to the market to buy any dowry. Are these two Miss Yun looking for an excuse to come out to play? And also chose the day when the Meng family gave the dowry
Although he thought so in his heart, Ren Yaoqi naturally wouldn't break it. He just smiled and asked the shopkeeper to bring out some good jewelry for the two Miss Yun to choose.
The good things of Duobao Pavilion are generally not placed in the stores outside, and the shopkeeper immediately went to pick them up.
Ren Yaoqi and the two sisters of the Yun family were talking without a word, but Yun Qiuping was still silent. What is rare is that Yun Qiufang speaks less today, and even a little absent-minded is not looking outside.
Ren Yaoqi quickly noticed it, and couldn't help frowning in his heart.
At this moment, the curtain of the tea room was lifted, and another person came in. It's just that Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he saw the appearance of the person coming.
"Have you made your choice yet?" A familiar male voice sounded, the man walked into the tea room, his eyes did not stop in front of Ren Yaoqi, the cynicism that he used to hang on his face was completely gone from that handsome face, and he looked cold and cold. Yes, and a little stiff.
Yun Qiuping lowered her head and whispered, "Not yet... not yet, second brother."
It turned out to be Yun Wenfang, the second young master of the Yun family, who had not appeared in front of people for a long time.
Yun Qiufang, who has always been flamboyant, seemed to have some scruples about Yun Wenfang. After glancing at him, he quickly said, "It will be all right soon, second brother, you should also sit down and have a cup of tea."
Yun Wen stood there for a while, and then sat in the diagonally diagonal position of Ren Yaoqi without saying a word, and his eyes finally came over.
Yun Wenfang's complexion was not very good. After several years of training, his complexion was a little darker than the average son, and he was very healthy. We haven't seen him for a while. Although Yun Wenfang has not come back in white, his lips are morbidly pale and dry, as if he was seriously ill.
When Yun Wenfang looked over, Ren Yaoqi also glanced at him, she didn't know how to describe Yun Wenfang's eyes at the moment. It seems that there is no focal length, but it seems to have a deep hatred and deep unwillingness, but I don't know who his hatred is for, and why. When Ren Yaoqi looked more closely, he only saw a thick fog, hazy, like the moon in the mirror.
No one spoke for a while, and the scene was somewhat silent.
Ren Yaoqi thought, why hasn't Xiao Jinglin come yet? Or find an excuse to go first.
It's just that before Ren Yaoqi could speak, Yun Wenfang spoke, or said to her, "Mrs. Xiao Shao has something to go first?" Yun Wenfang even smiled when he said this.
Ren Yaoqi glanced at him and sighed in his heart, but said, "I made an appointment here with the county master and the princess of Liao, thinking about when they will come."
"Yelusag?" Yun Wenfang heard the words but called out the name of the princess of Liao.
Ren Yaoqi nodded.
"Stay away from her." Yun Wenfang said this in a cold, commanding tone, but after he finished speaking, he frowned, pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment before stiffening unwillingly. The face said, "Old Liao Wang gave birth to sixteen daughters, and eight survived. She was the only one who divided military power. Her uncle is the current king of the Southern Academy."
Ren Yaoqi looked around, although there are only a few of them here, but after all, it is not a place to talk.
Seeming to understand her concerns, Yun Wenfang twitched the corners of his mouth: "What if the wall has ears, I'm not afraid to offend the Liao people."
Still as arrogant as ever!
