The stunning beauty of Qing Dynasty

Chapter 406 Arrived at the Farm



Chapter 406 Arrived at the Farm

After the hottest days of summer passed, the noble ladies and gentlemen in the capital who had been staying at home all day because of the summer finally had the interest to ride horses to the suburbs of Beijing to enjoy the flowers or play in the water.

In the courtyard where the imperial palace practiced martial arts, several princes showed some rare interest and planned to go to the farm outside the capital to play for a while.

"Fourth brother, didn't you say you had a farm in the suburbs? I heard there's an iron-eating beast there. Why don't we go take a look?"

The Fifth Prince asked his elder brother, who was born of the same mother, his eyes full of anticipation.

The young man he was questioning was about sixteen or seventeen years old, tall and straight, and his red riding suit made his handsome face look even more handsome.

The Fourth Prince raised his eyebrows, "Xiao Wu wants to go out and play?"

The fifth prince chuckled, "Fourth brother, you don't know this, but when father went to Su Garden to escape the summer heat this year, he didn't take me with him. I'm afraid of the heat, and this little bit of ice is not enough for me. If I hadn't gone to mother's palace maids to get some shade, I would have jumped into the water all day long."

"Xiaowu doesn't know you yet."

"You must have been sending your ice cubes to the kitchen all day long, and it went into your stomach. Otherwise, you wouldn't have used up the amount of ice cubes I gave you that summer so quickly."

The third prince smiled as he looked at his fifth brother who was acting coquettishly towards the fourth prince.

The Fifth Prince blushed, "Alas, delicious food is the only thing in the world that cannot be wasted. Third brother, please don't pursue this too much."

The Fourth Prince rolled his eyes at his younger brother, who had gained weight over the summer, and poked his cheek. "Look, among all the princes now, which one is as fat as you? Let's see when you grow up, whether there will be any girls who would be interested in you and become your wife."

"I still want to go out and play."

"Fourth brother!"

"Fourth brother~"

"Fourth brother."

……

The Fifth Prince looked aggrievedly at the other princes and their study companions who were watching the performance, then glanced at the Seventh Prince, with whom he had a good relationship, and said, "Seventh brother, do you want to go out and play?"

The Seventh Prince, who was enjoying the show when he was suddenly mentioned, caught the gazes of his brothers: "..."

Forget about this fifth brother who betrayed his brother. It was because he was nice to him. Seeing that his mother had a low rank and knew that he had suffered a lot of grievances, he specially asked Concubine Yi to help him.

"Well, Fourth Brother, I want to go too."

The seventh prince looked at his fourth brother innocently.

The Fourth Prince looked at his eldest brother, the Crown Prince, who had been sitting there watching the show. "So what do you think, my brother?"

The pale-faced prince, Gu Beixuan looked at his calm fourth brother, then at his expectant fifth brother, then at his other brothers, and smiled, "In that case, let's go together."

"Why don't Liu Zhi and Shen Du go together to see the scenery of Fourth Brother's farm."

Liu Zhi, the friend invited by the Third Prince, and Shen Du, the Prince's martial arts master: "..."

The two looked at each other, then turned their heads away, unwilling to look at each other.

The third prince's eyes twitched when he looked up and saw the actions of his two friends.

The eldest prince really enjoys watching the show and is not afraid of a real fight.

Qingyin had already taken Song's mother and daughter to the manor outside Beijing.

The two brothers Song Fengqing and Song Yuebai asked to ride horses and stood outside, knocking on their sister's carriage window from time to time and talking to Qingyin and the others, without any bother.

Qingyin sat in the spacious carriage, enjoying the intimate feeding from her maid and daughter.

"Miss, try this. These are the grapes that the servants just sent to you. Although their skin is green and looks unripe, they taste very sweet." Qinghe presented the peeled green grapes to Qingyin attentively.

The three-year-old girl next to her was not to be outdone. She peeled the small orange in her hand, peeled off the orange peel cleanly, and put it to her mother's mouth.

"Mom, try it. The little oranges that Nian Nian peeled must be very sweet."

"Yeah, sweet."

Qingyin bit the orange beside her mouth with her red lips, taking a bite of orange and a bite of grape, enjoying it very much.

Inside the carriage, the girl sat lazily by the window, with the scattered sunlight slanting through the gaps in the window onto the beautiful girl with a graceful figure, making the already incredibly beautiful face even more unreal.

For a moment, the maids, Nian Nian and Song's mother in the car could not help but stare in amazement.

The young lady/mother/daughter is so beautiful. The man with the surname Liu will definitely regret it in the future.

The carriage wobbled to a stop at the gate of a manor, and the steward guarding the gate immediately came forward to greet them.

"This servant greets the eldest and second young masters."

"Ah."

Outside the door, Song Yuebai was having a simple conversation with the person in charge of the manor. Qingyin and the others were sitting in the manor and were not in a hurry to come out.

Song Zhenbao was very curious as it was his first time out. He lay by the window and listened curiously to the sound of his uncle talking to others outside.

Song Zhenbao was very well behaved. Before she came out, her grandmother secretly told her that her mother was very beautiful now and might be in danger, so she had to protect her mother well and not let outsiders see her mother's true appearance.

Therefore, Song Zhenbao sat obediently in the carriage, watching Aunt Qinghe take out a veil and put it on his mother. He also suppressed his curiosity and did not open the window to look at the scenery outside.

Qingyin looked at her daughter's good appearance and couldn't help but touch her daughter's fluffy hair again.

I also successfully combed my daughter's hair into a flower bud, but it turned a corner crooked.

Song’s mother: “…”

Your daughter likes you so much that you ruffle your combed hair like this.

Qingyin glanced at her daughter with some guilt.

Song Zhenbao also looked at his mother with dependence, his eyes clear and full of joy.

Facing Mother Song's gaze, Qingyin felt even more guilty.

She waved gently at Song Zhenbao, "Nian Nian, come here."

"Yes, mother."

Song Zhenbao walked up to Qingyin.

Qingyin gently tidied Nian Nian's hair with her hands so that it no longer looked so tilted.

Qingyin asked Nian Nian to turn around and took a quick look.

Well, perfect.

"Sister, mother, please get off the carriage." After finishing his instructions, Song Yuebai came over and knocked softly on the carriage door frame, reminding them.

Qingyin responded, "Yes, Yuebai, come down right away."

The housekeeper of the manor standing behind Song Yuebai was a little stunned when he heard the eldest master's question and a pleasant female voice.

Some people have naturally pleasant voices that make people obsessed with them, and that female voice is just like that. The butler had not read much and could not describe the female voice. Anyway, as the butler of the Song family farm, he had met many nobles, but he had never heard such a beautiful voice.

Anyway, it was obvious that it was the voice of a rare beauty. The housekeeper was a little confused. The person that the eldest son called "sister" was the eldest daughter who had just returned from the Song family. This eldest daughter was seriously ill and was granted a divorce by the emperor and had a child.

The butler secretly imagined a sickly and emaciated face in his mind, which was completely inconsistent with the heavenly voice he actually heard, making the butler feel a little regretful.

If that young lady were young, she would have been a real beauty. Unfortunately, she is now seriously ill and has given birth, so her looks are probably not even as good as those of an ordinary person.

Just as the butler was feeling regretful, Qingyin also got off the carriage.
