Chapter 130: Shangyuan Festival
There were too few clues, and Xie Jingyi couldn't figure it out for a while. She had never figured out something she had lived in her whole life, and she had no hope of asking easily from an old lady who had first met.
But this matter should not be delayed anymore. Passive beating is undesirable. Instead of defense with attack, Xie Jingyi's style is her style.
And she always felt that the key figure in this matter was You Yun who ran away with her child in her arms.
Why did she take Xie Baolin away?
Hou Yongping said that she was worried that the child would not be close to the same mother clan after he recognized Mrs. Hou as his mother.
At that time, she thought that Mrs. Hou was talking about the current Zhang family.
But according to Madam Tao, the princess was still there at that time, and she should have said that Xie Baolin should be recorded in the name of the princess. This would make this even more untrue.
Not to mention that the princess and Du came from the same place. After recognizing the princess as her mother, she still learned the Wu culture and natural closeness.
What's more, Youyun is not Du's dowry at all. She just wants to protect the child halfway through the journey. How could she think of the mother tribe far away in Wu?
It's really unreasonable.
Therefore, there must be an indescribable reason for her to take Xie Baolin away. This reason is very likely to be the key to Xie Baolin being coveted.
So, is Youyun dead?
Xie Jingyi thought, and her heart gradually became clear.
She thought, and picked up a lantern bone from the corner of the wall. The Lantern Festival was coming. Chai Youchen promised that she would give her a Kun lantern. She would be sloppy and she would have to order something to go back, but her skill in tying lanterns is far worse than embroidery, dyeing cloth and drawing.
I have learned the brain and eyes, but I haven't learned the hands, so no matter how I prick it, it will be like a four-dimensional one.
...
In the first lunar month, there was nothing else to do except visit relatives and friends. Song Guangxi and Xie Jingze were talking about marriage, so it was inconvenient for them to visit their homes. In this way, they were in the capital and did not know anyone else. They only sorted out Xie Jingxian's dowry list at home, and they continued to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
It was just dark, and the streets were filled with people and bright lights. It was said that Tokyo is a city that never sleeps on weekdays, but there was no day. It was as colorful as the Spring Festival, and it was like the whole of Dachen. Everyone chose this day to go out.
In the early teahouse on Zhuque Street in the Marquis Mansion of Yongping, a elegant room facing the street was booked.
At this time of year, it is time for each company to compete for its ability. If any noble family does not occupy a good place, someone will mock him the next day, saying that he has fallen and declined... There are even more new nobles who are silently spending a lot of money to compete for the upstream.
The lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the location is a little bit off, the Yongping Marquis Mansion has not been squeezed out of this main street.
Xie Jingyi shook the lantern in her hand and leisurely shook the mask in her hand. Mrs. Yongping, who was sitting beside her, couldn't help but move away from her.
Xie Yujiao is still in a custody, which is really boring.
"Three Lady, I have a carp lamp here, why don't you change it?" Madam Chen, who was standing in the mansion of Yongping, held back the corner of her mouth and asked carefully.
God knows how there is such a strange thing in the world. After the Lantern Festival, this little lady is soft and cute in holding rabbit lanterns, steadily in the Octagon Palace, playfully in the melon lanterns, and beautiful in the peony lanterns. Even if it is not good, she will bring a common lotus lantern.
The little lady in front of her took a sinister white lantern, and the fire flashed like a ghost fire. When she took a look, she felt that she was about to die.
You said that the lantern was unlucky, no, it was exquisitely written on her head with auspicious words in various fonts.
To be fair, this is the best written word she has ever seen a woman in the boudoir, with skin and bones.
But no matter how good the word is, it can’t stand the poor lantern skills. At first glance, it looks like the ghost lamps during funerals are covered with talismans, which are very cunning...
Xie Jingyi shook her head decisively, "Thank you, nanny, I'm very happy that you like my lamp, but I only have one lamp, so I can't give it to you."
Madam Chen had a twitch in her throat and decisively buried her head and retreated. Who likes your lamp? I am afraid that the evil ghosts will come by following the lamp, so I wish I could change it and burn it immediately!
"Xie Lao San, come down soon, sister is here!" As he spoke, a woman's shout came from downstairs.
Mrs. Yongping frowned. After the second house came to the capital, the whole family did not start the sequencing again. In this way, the title was confused. Xie Laosan and Xie Laosan didn’t know who they were calling?
"Go and see who is shouting there, and who is calling?"
Madam Chen stretched out her head and looked at it, turned around in surprise and said, "Looking at the lantern of General Wu's mansion, she was talking about a little lady."
Mrs. Yongping Hou was stunned, "Wu family? We have never had any contact with the Wu family."
The Marquis of Yongping was a civil servant, and the civil servants and military generals have always been clearly distinguished and rarely interacted with each other.
The person downstairs seemed to be impatient and shouted, "Xie Jingyi, come down quickly! What's the point of hiding upstairs during the Shangyuan Festival!"
Now the Madam Yongping Hou was even more surprised. She turned her head and saw the ghost lamp again at first glance. Her face turned pale and she waved her hand, "How did you know the little lady of the Wu family? Their family is a military general... Forget it, just go down, so she won't keep yelling."
The military general's family has poor rules and a bad temper. When the girl downstairs heard the sound, she was a person who could expose the truth. Such a person looked like a hornet's nest. She was not good at doing it, and the whole family was embarrassed. It was indeed Xie Jingyi's friend, birds of a feather.
Xie Jingyi bowed with a smile, "Thank you grandma, then we'll go out to play."
Mrs. Yongping nodded, glanced at the little girls in other rooms standing in the corner and waved their hands helplessly, "Let's go and have fun."
Originally, the Spring Festival was about giving the young ladies a lot, but they could leave earlier with Guan Huizhi's blessing.
Xie Jingyi rushed down and rolled her eyes at Guan Huizhi, "You want to ask my second sister to watch the lights, why do you call me my name!"
Guan Huizhi shook her sleeves, "Jingyin's name sounds so nice. What if you call those stinky men and listen to them? Besides, if you can't get down, Jingyin will be in a difficult situation."
Xie Jingyi widened her eyes speechlessly. This person is so double-standard!
"Isn't my name afraid of stinky men listening to it? I won't be embarrassed by others? Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w
Guan Huizhi punched Xie Jingyi, "It's great, please put away your pretending and squeamish look. My brothers are the most shameful people, and you can't help but punch you. How could you be embarrassed by others? Just don't make things difficult for others."
"I just knew that you could all come down by calling your name! My house is so beautiful that I have to hide it. You... just listen to it! Let me introduce you to my five cousins, Wu Yihu, Wu Erhu, Wu Sanhu, Wu Sihu and Wu Wuhu."
