Wei Hanzhang's heart was mixed with her trustful look. Jiang was not someone who was mean to concubines. He had not mastered the rules and etiquette that he should learn, including poems, calligraphy, musical instruments, and paintings, so he didn't even know how to behave. How could the noble daughter of the Marquis Mansion develop such a temperament?
Jiang Zhixue is not that timid.
If you really get married in the future, how can you be the matron of a household with such a temperament? Not to mention traveling around the houses of your in-laws, you can't even control your husband's concubines, right?
Looking at this sister who is more than a year older than me, I always feel that she is the sister who needs to be taken care of.
For a while, Wei Hanzhang even fell in love with being a mother.
…………
The carriage stopped at the largest bookstore in the capital, Wenxuan Bookstore.
Next year will be Spring Festival, which is held every three years. In recent months, many candidates from all over the country have come to Beijing intermittently to prepare for the exam.
The bookstore has three floors, and most of the customers are scholars. There are also ladies from the boudoir who come here to buy some calligraphy and paintings.
Nowadays, the atmosphere is open, and it is common for ladies from the boudoir to travel with their companions. Some even visit libraries and teahouses specifically to see if they can choose a potential son-in-law among scholars from other places.
At that time, it will be a beautiful talk when the wedding night is full of flowers and candles, and when the names of the gold medals are named.
Wei Hanzhang had been here several times, and she knew how to put on a curtain hat for herself. When she saw Wei Hansu looking at her across the way, she said, "Sister Qi, do you think it's strange? Mainly because when I was in Xuzhou, my grandmother ordered me to wear it every time I went out. Curtain hat, after so many years, I have become accustomed to wearing it."
"It's not surprising. I just think Ran Ran looks better when she wears a curtain hat and her grace is not reduced by half." Wei Hansu had a hint of envy in his eyes, "Ran Ran looks really good."
Wei Hanzhang couldn't see her being so unconfident, so he praised her casually: "They are all in their best years. Every girl is uniquely beautiful. The seventh sister herself is also a flower-like person, so there is no need to envy others."
This is true, Wei Hansu's appearance is indeed not bad, she is as graceful and beautiful as a water lotus, and not very delicate.
The two sisters got out of the car. Wei Hansu was not wearing a curtain hat. As soon as they entered the library, countless eyes were focused on her face, and her face turned red.
"Am I right?" Wei Hanzhang struck while the iron was hot and said in a low voice: "Sister, you should be bolder. Now you are no longer the second concubine of the Marquis's house, but the only unmarried girl in the Duke's house. How many are more noble than you?"
There is one more thing Wei Hanzhang didn't say, that is, she is the sister of the current crown princess.
For this reason alone, there are not many unmarried girls in the capital who can surpass Wei Hansu.
Wei Hanzhang bought more than 20 newly released story books on the second floor, and also bought several sets of pictures so that he could fill in the pictures and write when he had nothing to do.
In less than half an hour, they had bought all the things. After Mei Gu loaded the carriage, and were waiting for the two girls to get on the carriage, Wei Hanzhang saw the busier teahouse diagonally opposite, his eyes lit up, and he asked quietly: "Sister Qi, can you?" Want to go to a teahouse?"
Make a pot of herbal tea and sit and listen to Mr. Shu talk about the recent hot events in the capital. I don’t know how many people in the capital have daily entertainment activities.
Every time Wei Hanzhang goes out, he comes in a hurry, buys good things, and leaves in a hurry. Today is a rare visit to Yaxing, and Wei Hansu is not a spoiler.
Hearing this, she followed her gaze to the bustling teahouse opposite, nodded and said, "Then let's go shopping?"
Her eyes looked like a primary school student preparing to skip class, which amused Wei Hanzhang. She found that her seventh sister was quite interesting.
Diagonally opposite, there was no need to take a carriage. Wei Hanzhang was about to hold Wei Hanyu's hand and saw the galloping of several horses not far from the already bustling street.
There were several shouts from the crowd.
"——It's the adults from Dali Temple who are back." Pedestrians coming and going for a while, carrying business on their shoulders, all consciously gave way.
Wei Hanzhang thought of the Yamen of Dali Temple, which seemed to be not far from here. She frowned and pulled Wei Hanyu to stand at the door of the library, waiting for people to pass by.
Not long after, several men on tall horses arrived at a not too fast speed, whipping up their whips.
Who is the leader if not Chen Zishu?
Wei Hanzhang's slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed. This speed would not disturb the people. Originally, when she saw that these vendors were so familiar with avoiding each other, she thought...
Thinking of this, she felt a little sorry for misunderstanding others, and quickly withdrew her gaze, but she didn't know that the man on the horse looked towards her the moment she withdrew her gaze.
After everyone had gone a long way, Wei Hanzhang took Wei Hansu's arm and said, "Seventh sister, let's go."
"...Ah!" Wei Hansu seemed to suddenly come to her senses, her face turned red inexplicably, she lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly and said: "Yes, let's go, let's go..."
"..." Wei Hanzhang was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask anything and took her arm across the road.
The two sisters entered the teahouse. It was also a three-story building, but the difference was that the roof was opened. There were private rooms on the second and third floors. Sitting by the window, they could just see the excitement downstairs.
Aunt Mei had reserved a private room on the second floor for them.
When Mei Gu went out, Wei Hansu took a sip of herbal tea and said hesitantly: "Ran Ran, do you know... who was the man who took the lead just now?"
Wei Hanzhang was stunned and said: "You mean Chen Zishu, the eldest son of Chen Guogong?"
"...Hey, please keep your voice down!" Wei Hansu looked downstairs carefully and saw that no one was looking up, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said shyly: "That's him. I just saw him walking towards Let’s take a look over here...Tell me, tell me...will he do it?"
"……what?"
Wei Hansu gave her an angry look and said quickly: "What else can you say... In the direction he looked just now, there were only you and me, Ran Ran, and you were wearing a curtain hat and didn't even show your face... I I think he should be looking at me."
She held her chin with one hand, her eyes full of girlish shyness and anticipation...
Wei Hanzhang looked a little silent.
Chen Zishu once proposed marriage to her and asked for a generous gift in return within a day. This was very embarrassing, and Mrs. Liu covered it tightly. Not many people in the family knew about it, especially Wei Hansu, a concubine with a second wife. Will get the news.
Seeing her misunderstanding, Wei Hanzhang didn't know how to explain it.
First of all, this is not a very honorable thing. The more people know about it, the greater the risk of it being spread. At that time, it will not only be detrimental to her reputation, but also affect the relationship between Chen Zishu and Xiao Boqian.
Secondly, it was rare for Wei Hansu to gain some confidence, so how could she break her illusions...
While hesitating, Wei Hansu, who had been looking downstairs, stared and said, "Ran Ran, look, is that the husband of the Gu family?"
Mr. Gu family?
...Which husband of the Gu family can Wei Hansu know?
Besides Gu Yunran, who came to her every day, who else could be there?
Wei Hanzhang was startled for a moment and followed her gaze.
