Chapter 14 Leaving the House
"Mom!" Yuan Ziyu, who was deep in thought in the study, hurried out to greet Liu when he heard that she was coming!
"I went out for a walk today. Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to ask Doctor Qian to come and take a look?" After handing over the household chores to Madam Yuan, Liu was worried about Yuan Ziyu, so she came to Wuyou Pavilion!
"Mom, I'm fine. It's okay. Besides, I've been wielding swords and guns for many years. Don't you know that I'm in good health?" Yuan Ziyu affectionately took Liu's arm, helped her to the west room, and personally made tea for Liu.
Seeing that Yuan Ziyu was indeed not seriously injured, Liu felt relieved. She gave Yuan Ziyu a few words of advice and prepared to go back.
"Mom!" Yuan Ziyu shouted quickly when he saw Liu was about to leave!
"What's wrong?" Liu asked Yuan Ziyu lovingly.
"Mom, I want to go out for a walk tomorrow!" Yuan Ziyu took Liu's arm, blinked and said to Liu.
During the Dali Dynasty, women were not treated harshly. Girls from official families could go out of the house as long as they were accompanied by a maid, and they did not need to wear a veil to cover their faces. As for girls from ordinary families, they had even fewer restrictions.
"Wait a few days. The Chinese New Year is just over half a month away. By then, there will be all kinds of banquets, which will give you plenty of opportunities to go out!" Liu thought for a moment and realized she had overlooked something. "Oh, now that you're well, I'll hire a nanny for etiquette. You should learn some of the rules of the capital, so you don't end up being laughed at!"
My daughter grew up in the frontier and is not very familiar with many etiquette and rules in the capital. She was sick before, so it is natural that she should be arrested quickly.
Yuan Ziyu had no objection to Liu's plan to hire a etiquette nanny for her. After all, she had already learned it well in her previous life, so it was fine to just go through the motions. However, she still had to leave the mansion, after all, she was not going out just to stroll around.
"Mom, going to a banquet is completely different from shopping. I haven't even seen what the capital city looks like!" Yuan Ziyu said, shaking Liu's arm!
Liu thought about it and realized that her daughter had never been to the capital before, so she agreed: "Okay, but remember to return home early and don't cause any trouble!"
With Yuan Ziyu's skills, Liu was not worried about her safety at all, but thinking about her daughter's temperament, Liu had to give her some advice!
"Don't worry, mother!" Yuan Ziyu was overjoyed when he saw that Liu agreed!
"When the etiquette nanny comes, you must learn it well!" Liu reminded again with concern.
"Of course, of course!" Yuan Ziyu nodded like pounding garlic.
After Liu left, Qingying and Qingzhi excitedly prepared clothes for Yuan Ziyu to go out the next day. They were also very curious about the capital city!
"Second Miss, who are you taking out of the house tomorrow?" Qingzhi asked Yuan Ziyu with a smile!
Qingying heard it, looked at Yuan Ziyu, and didn't say anything, but she was obviously waiting for Yuan Ziyu to speak!
Yuan Ziyu smiled and looked at Qingying and Qingzhi. Qingying was naturally steady, while Qingzhi was always lively. It was really hard for her to choose one, so she said, "Tomorrow you two will come out of the house with me, but from now on you can only take turns coming!"
"That's great!" Qingying and Qingzhi smiled when they heard that they could leave the house tomorrow. After helping Yuan Ziyu prepare all the things for leaving the house, they hurried back to their room to prepare their own clothes for leaving the house tomorrow.
On the second day, after paying his respects to Madam Yuan, Yuan Ziyu left the mansion in the mansion's carriage.
"Miss, Miss, the second lady has left the house!" Lian Qiao got the news and hurriedly reported it to Yuan Zitong!
Yuan Zitong snorted, "He's just a country bumpkin. I'm afraid he doesn't even know which way the shops in the capital face. How dare he go out and bring shame to the mansion?"
As she spoke, she twisted her handkerchief, her face full of jealousy. Because she was short of money, every time she went out shopping, she was mostly just strolling.
"Miss, it just so happens that the second lady is not at home, so our previous plan..." Lian Qiao rolled her eyes and waited for Yuan Zitong to speak.
"Have you found out everything?" After hearing Lian Qiao's words, Yuan Zitong narrowed her eyes and asked Lian Qiao!
"I've found out!" Lian Qiao nodded quickly.
After hearing this, Yuan Zitong's face flashed with cruelty: "Be careful, don't let anyone catch you!"
"Yes, I saved it!" After hearing Yuan Zitong's words, Lian Qiao went out!
Yuan Zitong bit her lip, her face full of hatred: Give her face? She is really impatient with life!
"Second Miss, we're here!" The coachman said respectfully to Yuan Ziyu in the carriage.
Qingying and Qingzhi jumped down first and wanted to help Yuan Ziyu get off the carriage!
Yuan Ziyou waved his hand: "No need!"
Then he jumped down from the carriage with a swift movement.
"Just wait for me here at 3 p.m." Yuan Ziyu instructed the coachman.
"Yes, Second Miss!" The coachman responded respectfully. He waited until Yuan Ziyu and Qingying Qingzhi were far away before driving the carriage back to the mansion.
"Is that carriage from the Yuan family? Who is this? He was so rude when getting off the carriage. He has no manners at all!" Two girls from official families came over from behind, followed by several maids. One of them was wearing an apricot-yellow double-breasted jacket and skirt embroidered with flowers and birds and beads. She looked at the backs of Yuan Ziyu and his servant with disdain and said.
"She seems to be from the Yuan Mansion, but she doesn't look like Miss Yuan Da! Could it be the Miss Yuan Er who just came back?" A woman next to her who was wearing a light blue jacket and skirt with a slanted collar and a flowered hem looked carefully at Yuan Ziyu's back and said with a frown.
"Miss Yuan Er?" The woman in the apricot-yellow dress frowned.
"Yes!" The woman in the light blue dress smiled and said, "Luo Yi, you probably don't know since you just came back, but I heard from my father that General Yuan has been recalled to the capital by the emperor, and he might be stationed there permanently in the future! This Miss Yuan is General Yuan's daughter."
Meng Luoyi looked at the woman in the light blue dress and said, "Yuhan, are you serious?"
Zhao Yuhan nodded and said, "That should be correct. I heard that General Yuan's wife and daughter have already returned to the capital. And I heard from my mother that their names are on the banquet menus of many families!"
Zhao Yuhan's father was the Minister of Personnel, so he was more informed about this information.
"Hehe, the speed is fast enough, who knows what will happen!" Meng Luoyi curled her lips, deeply despising Yuan Ziyu's rudeness when he got off the carriage!
"It's always good to make friends first. If you are remembered by the current emperor, you may have a bright future!" Zhao Yuhan said with a smile: "My father thinks that General Yuan may be able to make further progress."
Meng Luoyi was disdainful: "The Grand General of the Nation is only a third-rank official title. Can His Majesty promote him to the first rank? At best, he's a second-rank official. Is it worth fawning over him like this?"
Zhao Yuhan smiled awkwardly: "Who knows, but your father is the Prime Minister, I don't think he can surpass you."
