Chapter 265: Fishing on a boat?
Yan Ping nodded: "It's all up to you."
The two of them went to the dining room together. They were family and had their meal here, so there was no need to go outside.
"Xia Xia and A Qing are here." Fan Cuilan saw the two people come in and greeted them with a smile.
Yu Banxia glanced at Uncle Yan Ping and motioned for him to sit next to his father.
Yan Ping nodded and went outside to the yard.
The men were drinking over there, while the women were having their feast in the dining room.
The women of the rich man's family who were invited to come stood up and greeted Yu Banxia.
"I, a common woman, pay my respects to Princess Yongle."
"Don't be polite or restrained, just enjoy your meal." Yu Banxia spoke, and the women stood up.
There were also some young girls who secretly looked at Yu Banxia.
"The princess is so fair, her skin looks like you can squeeze water out of it, so beautiful."
"The Princess prescribed the Yuejirong product. We all feel so good after using it, let alone the Princess."
Several little girls were whispering to each other, but Yu Banxia pretended not to hear.
"I don't even dare to look into the princess' eyes. Her noble aura makes me afraid to look directly at her." Another little girl said cautiously.
"What are you afraid of? The princess is so easy to get along with and she won't eat people. But what you said is also true. The princess is noble and beautiful. I like her so much."
This little girl is lively and bold.
Ayali turned around and looked at the girl. The girl was fair-skinned, with a pair of bright and beautiful almond-shaped eyes.
Seeing Ayali looking at her, the girl picked up the wine glass and smiled embarrassedly.
Ayali smiled at her and also raised the glass.
The little girl was extremely flattered, for she heard that the girl with the high nose and deep eyes was the crown princess of Beirong.
How could she not be flattered when he was so humble?
"Try this." Yu Banxia was afraid that Ayali would scare the girl, so she picked up a piece of delicious food for her with chopsticks.
Ayali turned around and sat up straight. After thanking Yu Banxia with a smile, she went to eat obediently.
In addition to the banquet at the Yu family mansion, the buffet in the village was still going on.
Almost all the chefs in the town were invited to take turns cooking, otherwise they would not be able to afford the ten-day banquet.
People are so tired that they look unrecognizable.
After the banquet, Fan Cuilan and others saw the guests off.
Yu Banxia went back to her room to rest. In the evening, Fan Cuilan came to her room with a bowl of bird's nest and lotus seed soup.
"Mom, you've been busy all day, why don't you take a rest?" Yu Banxia quickly got up to answer it.
Liuli and the others left the house and gave the room to the mother and daughter.
Fan Cuilan stroked her hair lovingly and said gently, "You've only been back for a few days, and you're heading to the capital again. Mother really doesn't want you to travel back and forth."
"But it would be inappropriate if we don't thank the emperor for his kindness."
"When you come back from the capital, you must have a good rest and not go anywhere."
"Okay, I promise you that when I come back from the capital, I will stay at home and accompany you."
Yu Banxia scooped out the soup with a smile and handed her a portion.
Fan Cuilan took it with a smile, and Yu Banxia poured the rest into another empty bowl.
"This was cooked by mother herself, right?" Yu Banxia asked with a smile.
Fan Cuilan touched her face and said, "How do you know? But what did mother do wrong?"
"No, because it's full of mother's love."
Hearing her daughter's playful words, Fan Cuilan couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Sweet mouth."
"Hehe." Yu Banxia laughed. Only in front of her mother did she act like a normal child.
Fan Cuilan told her to eat quickly, otherwise it would not taste good if it got cold.
Yu Banxia nodded and asked her to eat too.
After the mother and daughter finished their soup, they chatted for a while before Fan Cuilan got up and left.
A good night's sleep.
Today is the day that Yu Banxia and his friends set off for the capital.
After breakfast and saying goodbye to my family, I prepared to set off.
Miaoyue and her two sisters also followed this time. Their master Zhao Boxian had already gone to the capital city on the second day of the Chinese New Year.
Four major maids followed by his side, along with the Erniu brothers. Yu Mancang also brought a servant named Ping'an.
Then came Yu Hongyu and his wife, a maid named Zhou Ma, a servant girl named Liuying, and Yu Hongyu's servant Chang Shun.
Yu Mancang, Yan Pingshu and Xuanfeng rode horses, while Yu Banxia and the others took a carriage.
"Grandma, Mom and Dad, we're leaving." Yu Banxia opened the window and waved goodbye to the elders.
"Come back early." Fan Cuilan waved at her.
Zhang Wanqing also said: "Mother has sent a letter home. When the time comes, you must go to your maternal grandfather's house to recognize your ancestors."
"I understand, don't worry, mother." Yu Banxia nodded.
"Then you should leave early."
Wu and Fan Cuilan reminded Erniu again: "Erniu, drive carefully."
"Old lady, don't worry, Madam, I know what's going on." Because Yu Banxia was conferred the title of Princess.
The servants in the house can also call Fan Cuilan "Madam".
They watched them leave until they could no longer see their figures, and then Fan Cuilan and the others walked into the house.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Mrs. Wu comforted Fan Cuilan with a smile.
Fan Cuilan nodded. Of course she knew her daughter's abilities, not to mention that she had a divine beast by her side.
But it is normal for a mother to worry when her son goes on a long journey.
When we arrived at the Yunshan Town Pier, the boat we had booked was already waiting there.
"I pay my respects to the princess, the general, Mr. Yu, the third master of the Yu family, and the third mistress of the Yu family."
The boatman and his fellow boatmen knelt on the deck to greet Yu Banxia and the others.
Yu Banxia was the most senior person present, so she was the one who spoke: "Boatman, please stand up. No need to be polite."
The boatman then stood up and turned to tell the boatmen: "Get ready to sail."
"yes."
"Princess, please follow me." The boatman took them to the cabin.
It can be seen that the cabins have been cleaned and rearranged.
"That's thoughtful." Yu Banxia thanked with a smile.
Liuli stepped forward and handed a purse to the boatman.
"Thank you for taking the trip to the capital for my master during the New Year. This is just a small token of my appreciation."
The boatman quickly bowed and responded: "Miss, you are too polite. It is my honor to run this boat for the princess. Please take it back."
Liuli stepped forward and put the purse in the boatman's hand.
"Take it. Don't think the boatman thinks it's too little?" After Liuli said this, he dared not refuse.
The boatman hurriedly thanked him: "Then I would like to thank you, my lady."
"Go ahead." Yu Banxia smiled.
The boatman thanked him quickly and stepped back, as there were other people waiting for him to lead the way.
Yu Banxia rested in the cabin for a while, then walked to the deck. The ship was already heading towards the city.
Not long after, Uncle Yan Ping also came out, holding a fox fur coat in his hand.
"It's windy, why don't you wear a cloak?"
Yu Banxia looked up at him and said with a smile, "First, I am immune to cold and heat, and second, aren't I waiting for you to bring it to me?"
"Naughty." Uncle Yan Ping scratched the tip of her nose, speaking in a doting tone.
"Do you want to go fishing? I'll make boiled fish, pickled fish and grilled fish for you for lunch." Yu Bandao suggested with a raised eyebrow.
Uncle Yan Ping shrugged, "I just don't know if it's possible to catch it with the boat going so fast."
