dream warm snow fragrance

Seeing that Ouyang Hui loves his son so much, it's not that Min Xiang doesn't appreciate his affection. Moreover, he gradually doubts whether Ouyang Hui has feelings for him. Therefore, when he pleases Xiao Ru'er, he is actually indirectly pleasing him. Own.

However, no matter what he is thinking, Min Xiang is not willing to let himself be subject to him all the time. Compared with being favored by Ouyang Hui, Min Xiang prefers that he treat him worse, so that he has more reasons to hate him, so he can more decisively to him.

Min Xiang thinks that he is not a decisive person and cannot be hard-hearted, so he prefers Ouyang Hui to harden his heart.

As for Ouyang Hui, he has no intention of imprisoning Min Xiang all the time, he just hopes that Min Xiang can be by his side, if he follows him slowly and willingly, that is naturally the best state.

So, seeing that Min Xiang stayed obediently in his other courtyard for a few days, and when the Qixi Festival came, he was willing to take him out to let the wind go.

On the day of Qixi Festival, even though it was only Ouyang Hui Jinwu Zangjiao's other courtyard, there were not many people serving there to ensure safety, but there were also several girls, so early in the morning, the other courtyard became busy .

The Qiaoguo bought back was enshrined, and there were also melons and fruits carved into various beautiful shapes. Xiao Ru'er opened his eyes this day. He had never seen these things before because there was no girl at home. Now in Ouyang Here, he was overjoyed when he saw those beautiful things, and followed Aunt Gu around with those beautiful maids.

Shelves were set up in the yard, and the servants also moved some books from Ouyang Hui's study out to dry under the guidance of the housekeeper.

It rained yesterday afternoon, a new day has arrived, the sun is bright and warm, and it is just right for drying books.

Min Xiang also had fun, helping to dry the books, and sitting under the eaves with some favorite books to read, and tea and melons and fruits were placed on the tea stool next to the chair. So I ran to Min Xiang and ate grapes and plums on his lap.

Ouyang Hui worked in the yamen for half a day, and left in a hurry in the afternoon, because he was always gloomy, and his colleagues did not dare to make fun of him, but the boss saw that he, who had always been calm and calm, had to leave in a hurry on this day , and said to him, "Yuan Yu, which lady are you going to see?"

Ouyang Hui packed up the files and handed them over to his subordinates. After being teased by Dali Temple Minister Yan Peicheng, Ouyang Hui realized that he was indeed too anxious to go back to see Min Xiang. A trace of smile appeared on his face, which was rarely seen in the yamen all the year round. With a smile, he said, "Old Yan, don't want to tease me, it's just something."

Yan Peicheng didn't want to say anything, so he let him go.

Sitting in the carriage, Ouyang Hui followed his slave and said, "My lord, are you going back to your house on Changshun Street?"

Ouyang Hui thought about it, it was Qixi Festival, so he had to go home and say hello to his mother, sister-in-law, sister-in-law and nieces, and said, "Well, go back to Changshun Street."

Ouyang Hui's family has strict discipline, not only for the master, but also for the servants. There are strict rules inside. Ouyang Hui went to see his mother to kowtow and salute, and met his sister-in-law. But busy."

His mother, Lu Shi, said, "That's right, I didn't even hear that you lived at home and went wild." Although she knew that Ouyang Hui was not someone who would go wild, she still spoke of him lovingly.

Ouyang Hui said, "Recently, the yamen is busy and the weather is hot, so I stayed at Baoxin Street. It's close to the yamen. The emperor has something to call, and it's also close to the palace."

Lu said, "Don't just be busy like your father, it's also necessary to know how to take care of yourself. A few days ago, the wife of Baoyihou's mansion came to visit, and she meant that her little daughter, Baozhu, would be a genital next year. I want to join forces with you. I also pay close attention to the suitable girls in Beijing, but this orb, I think, is worthy of you. It is a gentle and gentle girl. , is the daughter of the concubine of Baoyi Hou Mansion, her mother, Liu Shi, said her background, according to her seniority, is the cousin of the current emperor..."

Ouyang Hui sat opposite them expressionlessly, and said, "Isn't she afraid of rumors?"

Lu's face darkened in an instant, and said, "You child, why did you say such unlucky words by yourself?"

Ouyang Hui said, "So, mother is in charge."

Ouyang Hui had been engaged to a baby girl since she was a child, but the girl died when she was seven years old. Later, she hired a young lady of the right family, who also died of illness before getting married. Afterwards, Ouyang's family met another one for him, and unexpectedly slipped He fell into the water and died. The fortune tellers said that he was a horoscope for his wife, and then the emperor gave him a marriage and gave him a princess with the same fate. Not long after the marriage, the princess died of depression, so he is 26 years old. wife.

Seeing that Ouyang Hui had no doubts, Mrs. Lu said, "If that's the case, then I'll go back to Mrs. Baoyi Hou, and wait for the orb and the hairpin, and then I'll be betrothed."

Ouyang Hui had no choice but to agree.

Because this day was Qiqiao Festival, there were many women in the family, so there was a lot of hustle and bustle everywhere. Ouyang Hui sat with his mother for a while, and his unmarried sister and a niece came to say hello, so he said to his mother, " Mother, the child has something to do, so I have to go first."

Lu was very surprised, "What's the matter?"

Ouyang Hui said, "Yeah." Because he didn't have much expression on his face, Mrs. Lu wasn't sure what was wrong with him, so he waved his hand and let him go.

Ouyang Hui left from the veranda, but his sister-in-law stopped him suddenly. Seeing her walking gracefully, Ouyang Hui said, "Is there something else, sister-in-law?"

His sister-in-law said, "Uncle, there were some things I couldn't say in front of my mother just now."

Ouyang Hui said, "Sister-in-law, what's the matter, you just say it's okay."

The sister-in-law said, "A few days ago, a son came to ask you, but he was stopped at the gatehouse."

Ouyang Hui's eyes were indifferent and calm, "Who is it?"

The sister-in-law said, "He only said his surname was Min, and he said he was looking for you. I had someone stop him. It happened that you were not at home, so I didn't have time to tell you. I heard that you have been to places like Wenhua Garden a while ago. It’s just that I’ve heard about it, so it’s okay, it’s not good to let my father and mother know about it.”

Ouyang Hui said, "Thank you sister-in-law for hiding it for me."

The sister-in-law said, "You have to have a sense of masculinity. It is said that a sister-in-law is like a mother, that's why I tell you that. Otherwise, if you talk too much, you have always been high-minded, and you think I control too much."

Ouyang Hui said, "No way, Yuan Yu has always been grateful for sister-in-law's teaching."

The sister-in-law smiled at him, fanned the wind with the round fan in her hand, and said, "Then you go, I will go back to my mother."

Ouyang Hui watched her turn and leave, and then walked out of the inner courtyard slowly.

In the other courtyard, Min Xiang taught his son, "Look at you eating so much fruit, you won't be able to eat for a while, and you will have diarrhea again."

Xiao Ru'er said, "I can eat."

Min Xiangdao, "You can't eat fruit anymore, especially watermelon, you will feel cold in your stomach."

Ouyang Hui came over to have dinner with the Min family and his son, and it was getting dark outside. Xiao Ru'er was overjoyed when he knew that his father and uncle were going to take him to see the lantern.

Going out in a carriage, in the carriage, Xiao Ru'er lay in Min Xiang's arms, raised the curtains of the car with her hand and kept looking outside, but Ouyang Hui didn't stop her.

The capital city is very big. In the past, Min Xiang was the noble son of everyone, and he didn't know many places. Later, when he was in trouble, he naturally didn't go around, so he didn't know many places in the capital city.

While the carriage was driving, he would look through the window from time to time, knowing that this was about the north of the city, and what street it was. He didn't see the street monument, so he didn't dare to make a judgment.

The carriage gradually arrived at the eastern boundary of the city. Although it was already night, the place was still very lively. Red lanterns were lit at the gates of the houses. When they arrived at the Yongdong River area, there was already a crowd of people. Couples of couples wearing bright clothes were walking on the street. However, there are river lanterns in the river and in the canals.

Xiao Ru'er saw that it was so lively outside, she couldn't sit still, she yelled to go down, "Daddy, let's go down, it's so lively..."

Min Xiang didn't say anything, just looked at Ouyang Hui, but Ouyang Hui smiled and said to Xiao Ru'er, "Xiao Ru'er, come to uncle, I'll hold you."

Xiao Ru'er looked at her father, and then threw herself into his arms. His small body was soft and fragrant. Ouyang Hui hugged him very fondly, and said, "Let's go to the East Lake to take a boat , East Lake is much more beautiful and lively than here, okay?"

When Min Xiang heard that he was going to the lake, his heart sank, but he remained calm.

Donghu Lake is a large lake on the edge of the capital. The Yongdong River flows through it, and a canal was dug from the Jinnan River. It serves as the largest reservoir in the capital, ensuring water supply to the capital in times of drought, and acting as a buffer for floods in times of flood. , so that the capital will not be flooded, in addition, here is also a scenic spot in the capital.

On Qixi Festival, not only is there no curfew in the capital, but also several major city gates are not closed. Going out from the Dongqing Gate on the east side of the city, the official road leading to the East Lake is still full of pedestrians, and there are many horse-drawn carts and ox carts. The carriage, the horses are fat and strong, and the carriage is exquisite and luxurious. At first glance, it is almost full of carriages and horses traveling by ladies. Even passing by the carriage, there is a burst of fragrant wind, and you can hear the coquettish smiles inside.

For a while, there were more ordinary civilians who came to see these noble ladies.

Xiao Ru'er was even more elated, it was getting late, and he didn't show any signs of dozing off.
