Chapter 298, Disappointment
In a blink of an eye, Tanabata arrived.
Early in the morning, the girls got up and packed up, ready to go out and play happily.
The fourth daughter of the Shi family, Shi Fuyao, is married, and now it's the turn of the next few girls' life-long affairs.
Shi Fuying, Shi Fuxin, and Shi Fulin are only a few months apart in size, and the three girls are all old enough to marry each other.
In the Yixiang Hall, Mrs. Shi looked at the flower-like granddaughters with satisfaction on her face. Looking at the entire capital, the girls of the Shi family were no worse than others.
There are three girls who want to see each other, and they are somewhat busy, but fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law and the seventh daughter-in-law are all considerate people, and they have secretly paid attention to their daughters.
Today is Qixi Festival, and the two of them have asked the boys in the family to invite the young masters to go out to play. When the time comes, they will bring the girls at home, and take the opportunity to let sisters An and Lin see for themselves.
With her eldest grandson watching, she is at ease here.
At that time, the only thing the old lady was worried about was her sixth granddaughter.
The sixth granddaughter has always been a big-minded person. Regarding her lifelong affairs, she doesn't need the fourth and fourth couple to help her, and she finds the person she likes for herself.
Master Fan Xiaohou wants to be talented and handsome, and to have character, but it is a pity that his family background is too good.
If the sixth granddaughter can really achieve a positive result with Fan Xiaohou, she will undoubtedly be happy and looking forward to it, but she really disagrees with the way the sixth granddaughter gets along with Fan Xiaohou.
Sister Xin has too many edges and corners, and her temperament is not soft-tempered. He is proud of a son of a distinguished family like Fan Xiaohou, and he may find it funny that the sixth granddaughter occasionally makes her temper, but the more times, he Just bored.
"Grandmother, why hasn't Sixth Sister come here yet?"
Hearing Shi Fulin's question, Mrs. Shi came back from her own thoughts and looked at her grandchildren: "Go out first, don't wait for Sister Xin."
Shi Dingrong looked at the old lady, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, we are going out to hang out anyway, why don't we just wait for Sixth Sister, Master Fan Xiaohou is here, so it's not good to let him and Sixth Sister go out alone."
Mrs. Shi didn't answer, she sighed inwardly, because of the election of the imperial merchants, Sister Xin and Master Fan had another dispute. Seeing Sister Xin's appearance, the dispute is not small. Will Master Fan come to pick up Sister Xin today? It is not necessary to go out to play.
"Didn't you have an appointment with someone else, you go out, don't make people wait for a long time."
Everyone couldn't help being taken aback when they heard that, seeing the old lady's attitude that could not be refuted, they didn't dare to ask more questions, and they all backed out silently.
"Did the sixth sister quarrel with Master Fan Xiaohou again?"
"Sixth sister is also true, can't she be more submissive?"
"Hey, I was thinking about introducing Lord Fan Xiaohou to Brother Zhao today, it's a pity."
In Yigui Courtyard, Jin Yue'e learned that the young masters and girls in the mansion had already left the house, but the youngest daughter hadn't gotten up yet, so she went directly to Lanyue Building. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Shi Fuxin lying on the bed, holding a The purse is wandering.
"You embroidered this for Mingyu?"
Jin Yue'e walked over, took a look at the purse, and saw the Bingdilian embroidered on it, couldn't help smiling: "Okay, get up soon, don't wait for Mingyu to come, you haven't washed and dressed yet."
Shi Fuxin didn't listen, and turned her back to Jin Yuee: "I'm afraid he won't come."
Jin Yuee: "No, Mingyu won't ignore you just because of a dispute."
Shi Fuxin turned around and looked at her mother: "Mother, have you ever thought that it's your daughter and I don't want to talk to her?"
Jin Yue'e looked at her daughter seriously: "Then tell your mother that you don't like people with family background and appearance like Mingyu, so what do you think?"
Shi Fuxin stopped talking.
Jin Yue'e walked to the bed, pulled Shi Fuxin up, and signaled the servant girl to fetch water: "Your father and I don't have the same ideas, we are together, you have to let me, I will let you. "
"My mother can see Mingyu's concern for you, and he has given way to you in many things. You have been right since you were a child, but for Mingyu's sake, can't you make some compromises?"
Hearing these words, Shi Fuxin couldn't help but reflect on herself, is she really too selfish?
At this time, An Ran walked in with a smile.
"Girl, the concierge has just received news that the young master is here."
Jin Yuee heard it, and immediately looked at Shi Fuxin with a smile: "Mother is right, Mingyu won't ignore you because you quarreled. Hurry up, get up and pack up."
Under Jin Yuee's urging, Shi Fuxin dressed neatly and went to meet Fan Mingyu who was waiting in Yigui Courtyard.
Because of what happened in the carriage two days ago, both of them were a little uncomfortable.
"Mingyu, there may be a lot of people on the street today, you have to protect sister Xin." Jin Yue'e asked worriedly.
Fan Mingyu nodded in response, and led Shi Fuxin out the door.
When getting into the carriage at the door, Shi Fuxin saw Fan Mingyu took the rope from the servant, and couldn't help but pause.
Fan Mingyu said with some embarrassment: "I ride a horse."
The rest of the way, one in a carriage and the other on a horse, neither of them had a chance to speak alone.
When they arrived in West Market, Shi Fuxin got off the carriage, and Fan Mingyu also got off the horse. The two walked side by side, and because there were too many people around, they couldn't find a chance to talk about themselves, so they could only speak casually. commonplace.
"Is the teahouse where Miss Xiahou and you are dating in front?"
"Um."
"Shouldn't we be late?"
"It's okay to be late, sister Xiahou won't blame you."
"oh."
"Do you know Prince Gong's son? Is he easy to get along with?"
"I've only met a few times, so I'm not very familiar."
"oh."
Nurse Leng and Xiaofang followed behind, listening to the slightly distant conversation between the two, they were both a little worried.
"Young master!"
Just as the group was about to arrive at the teahouse agreed upon by Shi Fuxin and Xiahou Huanyan, a voice full of surprise and surprise came from behind.
Shi Fuxin and Fan Mingyu turned their heads at the same time, and saw the joyful face of the girl from the Jin family, together with the girl from the Jin family, and her father and elder brother.
"Master Fan Xiaohou, what a coincidence!"
Jin Jingcheng came to Fan Mingyu in three steps and two steps, and greeted Fan Mingyu with a smile.
Fan Mingyu didn't expect to meet Jin Shangshu's family here, glanced at Shi Fuxin, and greeted the Jin family father and son with a smile.
"Jin Shangshu!"
"Brother Jing Cheng!"
"Golden girl!"
The girl from the Jin family saluted Fan Mingyu first, then smiled and nodded with Shi Fuxin: "Miss Shi Liu."
Shi Fuxin replied with a light smile: "Miss Jin." Glancing at Jin Shangshu and Jin Jingcheng, she asked curiously, "Why are you here?"
The girl from the Jin family smiled coquettishly: "Father and elder brother specially took the time to accompany me to visit Qiqiao City."
Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "Your father and elder brother really love you very much."
The girl from the Jin family smiled embarrassedly.
"It is fate to meet each other. It just so happens that there is a teahouse here. Young Master, why don't we go in and have a cup of tea together."
Jin Shangshu smiled and extended an invitation to Fan Mingyu, during which time he ignored Shi Fuxin who was beside him.
Anyone with eyes can see that Fan Mingyu accompanied Shi Fuxin to visit the West Market, but Jin Shangshu completely ignored Shi Fuxin, which shows how much he despises Shi Fuxin .
Shi Fuxin took a look at Jin Shangshu, and there was a mocking look in his eyes. There are more than ten streets in the West Market, and there are still so many people today. It is really lucky enough to meet them all.
Fan Mingyu saw that the teahouse was the place where Shi Fuxin and Xiahou Huanyan had agreed to meet, and also thought about the friendship between the Fan family and the Jin family, so he didn't refuse: "Okay."
In fact, before returning to Beijing, the Fan family had contacts with the Jin family.
Jin Shangshu was in charge of the household department. When Yongchuanhou was in Liaodong to calm down the troubles at sea, he often had contact with Jin Shangshu for the matter of military rations and salaries.
"Master please!"
Jin Shangshu asked Fan Mingyu.
"Master Jin please first."
Waiting for Jin Shangshu to step into the teahouse first, Fan Mingyu turned to look at Shi Fuxin: "Sixth sister, let's go in."
Shi Fuxin looked at Fan Mingyu who never asked herself if she would like to get along with the Jin family from the beginning to the end, and couldn't help feeling disappointed in her heart.
Miss Jin saw that Shi Fuxin's expression was wrong, and walked over with a smile: "I've wanted to meet Miss Shi for a long time, but unfortunately I never had the chance. Today we are destined to meet each other, so we must have a good talk."
Jin Jingcheng also laughed out loud at the right time. While talking with Fan Mingyu, he wanted to lead people into the teahouse.
Fan Mingyu saw that Shi Fuxin and Miss Jin got along fairly well, so he followed him in.
"Miss Shi Liu, the young master has already gone in, let's go in too." Miss Jin looked at Shi Fuxin with a smile.
Shi Fuxin looked at the flash of smugness in her eyes, ignored it, looked at Fan Mingyu who was walking ahead, talking and laughing with Jin Jingcheng, thought for a while, and still followed.
