Chapter 131 Junior Sister’s Women’s Clothing, from Zero to One (Please vote for me!)
Ouyang Rong is very adaptable.
The departure of his aunt Zhen and his personal maid Ye Weila only made him feel sad for a day or two, but he quickly adapted to it without delaying his plans and schedule for the next few days.
Ouyang Rong occasionally feels that his character is a little unfeeling when he has some leisure time and meditates.
But as he said to Liu Ashan and Liu Ashan, life needs to look forward, not every separation has a farewell.
Isn't it?
Therefore, in the past two days, Ouyang Rong walked to Dee Gong Gate as usual, went to and from get off work on time every day, washed up and went to bed when he got home, and left full of energy early the next morning.
There is nothing wrong except that the house becomes deserted in the morning and evening.
When a certain white-haired maid is around, he eats three meals a day,
Now when he is not around, he also eats three meals a day.
Wait... Well, Ouyang Rong admitted that the previous "one day and three meals" does seem a bit different.
Ahem.
But that's not the point.
The point is that after Zhen and Wei La left, Ouyang Rong's life got back on track.
Although Meiluyuan is now empty, except for the little junior sister who often comes to visit and rummages through his study.
Only Liu Ashan and Ah Qing's family lived in a courtyard on the west side, and they would occasionally meet them when they returned to Meilin Courtyard at night.
In addition, Ah Qing often came to Ouyang Rong's yard during the day, cleaned the study and bedroom, and made the bed and quilts.
Last time I heard Liu Ashan say that it seemed that the little girl had taken the initiative to come and take care of it.
This made Ouyang Rong a little embarrassed.
Of course, he had no wrong thoughts about Ah Qing.
Finally, the day came to the fifteenth of this month.
The day of the Donglin Temple Marriage Fair is also the day when a grand ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held for the completed Dickong Gate.
In addition, it is also the day when the house is raided.
Well, it will be a little busy.
It was dawn outside the window and the bedroom was not yet bright. Ouyang Rong opened his eyes.
I tossed and turned on the bed twice, then decisively opened the quilt embroidered with the pattern of "local dog and doll", broke the inertia of staying in bed, got up, washed and dressed.
Ye Weilai was not here, so he did all these things himself.
Although I live in a feudal dynasty and become a noble official, it is indeed very satisfying and depraved to be taken care of by a delicate and lovely Loli maid who will be my dependence for the rest of my life.
But Ouyang Rong was used to living alone when he was studying abroad in his previous life. Now that he is living alone again, he has adapted quickly.
But yesterday, when he came back at noon, he met Ah Qing at the entrance of Meilin Courtyard after finishing cleaning and pushing out the door.
At that time, the little girl lowered her head and felt shy, then volunteered and whispered that she wanted to move to the yard and take over the care of the master from Sister Verier.
But Ouyang Rong declined on the spot.
He has always regarded Ah Qing as his younger sister, but unfortunately Ah Qing and Ah Shan's brother and sister's family have always regarded him as their master.
Ouyang Rong felt helpless.
But it cannot be corrected in a short time.
Thinking of some trivial matters, Ouyang Rong finished dressing, looked at the rising sun outside the window, and pushed the door open.
Before going out, Ouyang Rong stopped briefly and sniffed the air.
It was the same when Wei Lai was still here. He often woke up in the morning these days and found that there was a faint smell of sandalwood lingering in the bedroom.
But the source has never been found.
Somewhat inexplicable.
Ouyang Rong shook his head, opened the bedroom window for ventilation, stepped into the morning light, and left the Meilin courtyard.
He glanced at the quiet path among the plum blossoms next to the yard, hesitated, and did not go.
Ouyang Rong went out today wearing a brand-new, close-fitting blue Confucian shirt, which was left behind by a white-haired maid before she left.
Although there was a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony in the afternoon, there was another private matter in the morning.
She had to accompany her junior sister to get a marriage certificate, so she didn't put on her official uniform right away. She would change it when the time came.
Ouyang Rong did not go to the breakfast hall to eat as usual, but passed by directly and walked out of the front door of Meiluyuan.
"master."
Ouyang Rong met Liu Ashan at the door who had gotten up early to feed the horses.
He smiled and said hello, and then said casually:
"Ah Shan, please tell the cook that you won't be eating at home in the morning."
"Yes, sir."
Mrs. Zhen and the others left, but the cook they hired from Yunshui Pavilion did not leave. I remember that a few days ago, they seemed to have taken some leave and then came back.
Therefore, Ouyang Rong's life has been as usual these days, and it is also due to the chef's contribution that the food has not changed.
Sure enough, to stabilize a man's heart, you must first stabilize his stomach.
"correct."
Ouyang Rong, who was about to go to the Su Mansion next door, suddenly stopped and took out a piece of jute paper folded into a square from his arms.
He chuckled and handed it to Liu Ashan:
"Leave this to Master Diao, doesn't he want to show off in front of the superior? Well, he will host the ribbon-cutting ceremony in the afternoon, but it must follow the process I planned above.
"Ah Shan, you should also go along and supervise."
Liu Ashan looked at Ouyang Rong's regular clothes and hesitated to speak.
Ouyang Rong squatted down, grabbed a handful of fodder, fed it to the snorting bay horse's mouth, clapped his hands, stood up and said with a smile:
"You go to Di Gongzha to make arrangements in the morning. I'm going to Donglin Temple with my junior sister in the morning. Don't worry, Liu Lang and the others will follow, not to mention there's still a junior sister here... It's your business in the afternoon.
The highlight.”
As if thinking of Miss Xie's ability, Liu Ashan hesitated and nodded.
"Sir, I'm waiting for you at Di Gongzha."
"good."
Ouyang Rong wiped his hands, straightened his clothes, turned around and walked towards the low-key door of Su Mansion next door.
The paper Liu Ashan had just handed over to Diao County Cheng was his newly revised arrangement.
The original usual process of the ribbon-cutting ceremony has been slightly changed.
Added an hors d'oeuvres to the front.
Don't Liu Ziwen and the others like to transport oil gates? Then we will arrange a new program for everyone before the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
"Dong dong dong~" Ouyang Rong knocked on the door.
Not long after, with a "squeak" sound, the door of Su Mansion was opened inwards.
Several maids from the Su family who were familiar with him warmly welcomed him into the house and led him to Yilanxuan.
On the corridor road, the young magistrate held his hands on his sleeves, lowered his eyes and thought about today's arrangements. He made sure that everything had been omitted, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath.
For a moment, he felt that the rockery scenery in the back garden of the Su Mansion on both sides of the corridor was much brighter.
Ouyang Rong was looking forward to the main scene in the afternoon, and felt that it would be nice if the morning chores could be over quickly.
It's a pity that I agreed to my junior sister's little wish early and I have to go to Donglin Temple in the morning.
She seemed to be aware of the sideways glances of the round-faced maid who was leading the way.
Ouyang Rong turned his head and smiled at him.
The round-faced maid Xia Fei's cheeks were offended, and she lowered her head and did not dare to look at Miss Xie's handsome senior brother with white teeth when he smiled.
After a while, Ouyang Rong arrived in front of Yilanxuan's door, but he was stopped by the maid in the courtyard of his junior sister.
He waited on the corridor between two thick red walls and curiously spoke to the maid Yi Lanxuan:
"Excuse me, junior sister, what are you doing in there? Why haven't you gone out yet? Why did you get up so late today? Are you having breakfast? Didn't you make an appointment to eat at the mountain restaurant?"
The maid guarding the door blushed slightly, looked up into his eyes and said:
"It's not breakfast. Madam Xie got up early in the morning to take a bath and incense. She's already here. She should be fine soon."
"Bath incense?"
Ouyang Rong turned his head and stared blankly at the courtyard where mist seemed to be rising, his eyes becoming more and more curious.
The maid at the door nodded and said with a serious face:
"Yes, all the ladies say that when you go to a Buddhist place or participate in a temple festival like this, you need to get up early to take a bath and smoke incense religiously. Only when you go up the mountain can the incense be effective."
"Um, are you so particular..."
Ouyang Rong silently glanced down at his clothes.
What should I do if I don’t take a bath and incense? Wouldn’t the Buddha blame him for destroying the Buddhist style and deducting merits wildly?
Ouyang Rong started to think about it out of boredom.
However, he only waited there for a while.
With a "squeaking" sound in his ears, the wooden courtyard door in front of Ouyang Rong was pushed open from the inside.
A burst of hot incense aroma hits your face.
I saw a lady in a pink skirt with misty temples and windy hair walking out of the door.
Hey, that little girl from the Su family? Why is she also in the junior sister's yard so early in the morning?
The first reaction that came to Ouyang Rong's mind was that he immediately turned around and gave way.
The corridor is narrow, only a few steps wide, so it is easy to get crowded.
In front of Yilanxuan's door, Ouyang Rong made way for Mrs. Su who was leaving the house and motioned for her to go first.
The young lady in a pink skirt with her hair combed into high temples passed by Ouyang Rong, turned her back to him, and walked a few steps forward along the corridor. The steps of her graceful back suddenly stopped.
She asked curiously without looking back:
"Come on, senior brother, didn't you say you were going up the mountain to have breakfast? Why are you standing there dumbfounded?"
Ouyang Rong: "???"
The noble lady of the Xie family, who had not worn women's clothing for a long time, turned her eyes and glanced at the senior brother who was dumbfounded.
Xie Lingjiang's red and delicate lips were slightly opened, her teeth were like white jade, and she softly uttered a few words:
"Senior brother, if you don't hurry up, you won't be able to eat the pickled radish."
It seems like a warning.
Ouyang Rong: "..."
Here you go, your schedule is back to normal, there are two updates every day, and there will be another one today, in the evening, good brothers!
