Ruoying flowers bloom

At noon on the 18th day when the carriage drove, they finally arrived at the first stop of their escape - Tianwu City.

On the streets where people come and go, driving a carriage is very difficult.

The nanny took out two taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to the coachman Dashan: "Thank you for taking care of me all the way, you have worked hard."

"No hard work, no hard work, as long as you can get to the place safely, the world is not peaceful, and the old, weak, women and children should be protected. Where is your relative's house? I will take you there." The nanny glanced at the many coachmen. He fell in love with Dashan who was dressed plainly and was embarrassed to talk to her but didn't know what to say.

"No, these two children and I will find an inn to stay in first, freshen up and then go, otherwise it will be full of travel and dust, and it will be rude."

"Well, I'll go to the post station first, ma'am. I think there should be people who have returned to Hongdu from Tianwu." Da Shan left. He is a very honest person. He never eats too much meat when he eats. When staying in the inn, he always said that he would fall asleep in the car, and he was the first to wake up every day.

It's a pity that he can't go with them all the way.

One is that the journey is too far, and the other is that people need to be deceived.

Asked for a guest room, one adult and two children walked into the room and started packing.

"Now we still have 26, 100, and [-] copper coins. We need food, lodging, and horse-drawn carriages. We still have plenty of money, but just in case..." In Bingyue, a penny is equivalent to a dime in modern times, One thousand Wen is equal to one ingot of silver, and one ingot of silver is equivalent to [-] yuan.

"Grandma listens to you, but it's a pity that my jewelry can't be sold, otherwise I can get a lot of money in exchange." Chu Yingxue looked at a black cloth bag with some depression and sighed.

"The things in the court are not ordinary. As soon as I, a country woman, pawned my forefoot, I will definitely be arrested by the officers and soldiers for theft. I am fine. I am afraid that you will be arrested. How about you, Miss?" It’s easy to leave there, but you must never go back.” Those three or four pieces of jewelry, just one piece of jewelry, is worth a lot, how can they be owned by ordinary people?

"Grandma, Yingying and I will not go back, don't worry."

"Well, well, well, all of them will be my grandson and granddaughter-in-law for this old woman." The nanny joked and made the two of them feel embarrassed, but Liuyun Qiongruo's eyes were clearly full of pride.

"Grandma, how old are you? How can you be an old woman? You are obviously a beautiful woman." Facing Liuyun Qiongruo, Chu Yingxue pouted and said depressedly, "Qiongruo, you really know how to think, and you actually said I am your child bride, originally I wanted to be your sister and brother."

After going this way, nothing happened at all, but Qiongruo always repeats to others that she is 'his' child bride.

She is obviously not!

People who knew that 'fact' looked at her strangely, and she felt very uncomfortable.

She decided that she would also wear men's clothes in the future, let Qiong Ruo wear women's clothes, and let Qiong Ruo be her child bride-in-law.

"You are my child bride-in-law, accept your fate, Yingying..." Chu Yingxue turned her head angrily, but ignored the seriousness and expectation in Liuyun Qiongruo's eyes.

"Boom boom boom...Guest officer, the younger one is here to deliver water."

"Come in." Xiaoer came in with a copper basin full of water, looked at the three people sitting around the table in the room, and began to chat: "This is the first time for the guests Sky Dance City?"

The nanny said, "Yes, I am taking my two children to Yuxingguan to visit relatives."

"It's really time for you guys to come. This dance competition was supposed to be held five days ago, but it just so happened that last year's dance leader got a cold, so he set the date for tomorrow. You guys are lucky!"

"The dance competition is a lot of beautiful beauties dancing together?" Chu Yingxue asked excitedly. She has always liked to watch ancient beauties dance in TV dramas in modern times.

Of course, most of the time, she is imagining that she is in a place full of peach blossoms, walking around in white clothes.

The petals fell on her body, she looked back and smiled lightly, and then amazed a group of leading men and supporting roles...

No, I can't think about it anymore, if I think about it again, if I accidentally slipped my mouth, Qiongruo should be angry again!

"Yes, it is said that some women from poor families have become Huaying's imperial concubine through the dance competition." It's another story.

Hearing this, Chu Yingxue lost interest.

Princess?Lao Shizi's concubine?The four concubines in the harem all come from the seven great families, and when a commoner girl enters the palace, no matter how beautiful she is, she is at best a concubine.

"Tianwu City's dance competition will have wonderful performances every year. The top three dancers will get priceless prizes. Among the hundreds of women participating in the competition, those who intend to enter the palace must explain in advance. According to the score, ten women who are interested in entering the palace are selected and sent to the royal song and dance workshop——Yingxiufang, this dance leader competition is very exciting."

The dance competition?Drafts became competitions in ancient times.

It's like a super girl!

"Isn't the folks drafting every year? Then why do you have to dance for the draft?" If you go in with all your heart, you don't have a son, no high position, no feelings, what will you get in the end?

Nothing!

"The women selected in the dance competition must be good-looking, and dance is the best choice. After they enter the song and dance workshop, they don't need to participate in the folk audition. The folk women entered the palace, except for a very small number of concubines. , and the others are just starting from maids of honor. It is different for women who enter the singing and dancing hall. Even if they will not become imperial concubines in the future, they will be more than enough to marry a high-ranking official as a concubine." Concubine?Are you not ashamed, but proud?

Maybe this is the generation gap of the times, but no matter what time and space there are people who want to get ahead.

"If you don't like to watch the dance competition, you can also go to the temple fair. Once the dance competition is held, there will be all kinds of accessories and snacks at the temple fair. Madam, buying some for the two children is also a good souvenir." She tried her best to promote the goodness of their hometown, and Chu Yingxue was a little moved by what she said.

She looked at Liuyun Qiongruo with questioning eyes.

"Then where is the location of the dance fight meeting?" Liuyun Qiongruo asked.

"If you want me to say, it is God's destiny that three guest officials come to our Tianwu City to watch the dance competition. This dance competition is on the bank of Lichen Lake... It is less than a wick walk south from our small shop. It's time for incense."

"Okay, we got it. By the way, prepare two buckets of hot water at night, and we have to take a shower." When they were on their way, they just wiped their bodies with a soft cloth because of the inconvenience of the environment. Now they finally came to a larger facility A well-equipped place naturally needs to be washed well.

"Yes, I've made a note." Originally, Liuyun Qiongruo was dressed in men's clothing and should live alone, but the nanny didn't want her out of her sight. Fortunately, she was not very old, so the three of them slept together. in the house.

"Let's go out for a walk in a while, and we just cut out new clothes for the young lady and Miss Yingxue. It's not good to always wear the same one."

"Grandma, don't always call me Miss Yingxue, little miss, you call me Yingying like you are in front of outsiders, just call her Xiaoqing, how comfortable it sounds..." Chu Yingxue's expression Seriously correct this.

"There is a difference between honor and inferiority, etiquette cannot be discarded!"

Hearing this, Chu Yingxue smiled and said, "Then let me ask grandma, have you left the Hua family? After leaving the Hua family, you are free and not a slave."

She didn't dare to talk about equality in the palace, but when she left the palace, she met kind-hearted nurses and worked tirelessly with them. They couldn't treat her like a slave.

"But I belong to Miss..."

"I know that you are Qiong Ruoniang's nanny, but you are not Qiong Ruo's, you are our elder. Don't think that Qiong Ruo is the daughter of Aunt Ling'er and you will serve us. You don't belong to anyone The entourage is not mine, nor Qiongruo's. You help us because of your kindness... We call you grandma, and you also call us Xiaoqing and Yingying. They are crystal clear. In fact, you look like thirty How old are you, it's better to be called Auntie." Chu Yingxue's small mouth poured out kind words like she didn't want money, and the nanny was instantly moved beyond measure.

The envoy is really different, he is so sensible and understanding at a young age.

It's as sweet as honey.

"Yingxue's own grandma is no longer in this world. After leaving Huaying, I don't have any relatives except Qiongruo. Will you be my grandma in the future?" Leading two girls who escaped from the palace to find their father, those who supported her were loyal and kind, but more of a conscience.

She knew everything about Hua Ling'er, her persistence, her misery, and her stupidity.

She couldn't bear the suffering of her only daughter in this world, so she traveled thousands of miles and followed her all the way.

Such a person is admired and loved.

Grandma, you will agree to let another grandma take care of Xiaoxue in another time and space.

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't dislike grandma, grandma is willing."

"Okay, I have a grandma, and I, Chu Yingxue, also have a grandma in Ice Moon Continent." Liu Yunqiongruo understood the meaning of her words, and with a faint smile on her face, she also called out to the nanny: "Grandma , and Qiongruo, you are also Qiongruo's grandma..."

"Okay, I must have accumulated a lot of virtue in my previous life. In this life, I will send two good granddaughters to me. Miss, you have a spirit in the sky to see this scene. Rest in peace. Qiong Ruo is very strong and smart. I will definitely not be wrong in the future. Yingying is also a little clever, she and Qiongruo are together, so don't worry." Tears flowed down my face, but my heart felt infinitely relieved.

The freshly baked family of three sat around the table, happy and warm.

After tidying up their excitement, the three of them prepared to go out on an empty stomach. There was no other reason. Chu Yingxue suddenly wanted to eat at a roadside stall.

"I want to see if there are candied haws, cold cakes, spicy sea snails, donkey meat on fire, pancakes..." Wracking her fingers, Chu Yingxue could only think of so many snacks for the time being.

"Looks like I need to get more money."

"Wait..." Chu Yingxue took the money bag, took out all the money inside, and looked around the room.

"Yingying, what's the matter?" The nurse was very puzzled, didn't Yingying say that she wanted to have a big meal?How do you move around with money?

"I'm afraid of meeting pickpockets on the street when I go out. You should know that some people come over and hit you deliberately, and the money will disappear miraculously. All our belongings are here, and if they are lost, it will be bad food." TV series This is usually the case here, they have to be more careful.

"But this guest room is clear at a glance. If you want to hide in this room, aren't you afraid that someone will come in and look for it?" Liu Yun Qiongruo also looked around.

In her opinion, it is better to wear it on the body, which is safer.

"What you said makes sense, but I know where the money is." The nanny took the money from Chu Yingxue, wrapped it tightly with a handkerchief, and stuffed it into the inner pocket of her coat.

Chu Yingxue looked puzzled, and the nanny tied the remaining money bag with many copper coins around her waist.

"No one will know that I have money here, and there is money here..." The two places were separated, which made Chu Yingxue suddenly think of her modern grandfather.

Grandpa is an old smoker. In order to help him quit smoking, grandma only puts a small amount of money in his pocket.

Once, grandma found that there was less money in the cabinet, but after checking grandpa's trouser pocket, there was only 56 yuan.

When doing laundry the next day, grandma found 56 yuan in grandpa's vest pocket.

Confused, the grandma went to look through the trousers again, and found that both pockets contained fifty yuan, five yuan, and one yuan, and the three bills were folded in half and placed in the two pockets.

Don't underestimate the IQ of middle-aged and elderly people, it should not be underestimated!
