Chapter 112 New Friends
In the first month, Ye Shizi's family started to be busy visiting the New Year again, welcoming and sending them off.The old Hou Ye and his wife are responsible for the high-ranking officials in Los Angeles, including the magistrate, Tongzhi, Jin Yiwei's inspector, Zhizhou and the governor's house.
Ye Shizi and Li Shi are in charge of the generals of their own three armies and the generals of the east and west sides.Brother Ye and Second Brother are in charge of receiving the sons and young masters of each family.Brother Ye San is in charge of relatives in the clan.
Miss Ye didn't care about anything else, only when a high-status lady came to the house, such as the lady from the general's family, she had to come forward to receive her.All the young ladies she received had to be officials of the fifth grade or above.The ladies of the official family below the fifth grade are received by girls from other rooms.
When people came, Ye Xueying played with them all the way, led the ladies to the garden, and then sat down and chatted in Fangfei Pavilion.Sometimes just after sitting down, another group of people comes.Ye Xueying's head hurts from pressing the dialog box all day long.This kind of social chat is the most boring.
After finally getting to the fifth day of the new year, there were fewer customers.On this day, the second uncle's family also left.
The second uncle's family came quietly and left quietly without taking a cloud.
Ye Xueying gained a reputation as a squeamish young lady among the ladies in Luo City.In the eyes of the ladies and ladies, Miss Ye is beautiful, well-behaved and well-mannered. There is nothing to say about her family background, but she has a bad temper and is too spoiled.
This is the end of Ye Xueying not distracted, changing the dialog box prompts all the way.The options in the first column of the dialog box are based on the temperament of the original Miss Jiao.
After frequent socializing and entertainment during the first month, Ye Xueying barely got acquainted with the circle of young ladies in Los Angeles, and began to have acquaintances with friends.
On this day, Ouyang Qin, the eldest daughter of the Zhizhou family, sent a note asking Ye Xueying to attend a plum appreciation party at her house tomorrow on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
It took Ouyang Qin a lot of thought to invite Xueying. Zhizhou's family is the head of Luozhou's civil servants, but everything in the frontier is military priority, and many things can be done smoothly only if the Ye family nods.In order for Ouyang Zhizhou to secure this position, cooperation with the Ye family is indispensable.
Ouyang Zhizhou himself came forward to befriend the Ye family, and his reputation among Xia Dynasty civil servants was not good.The civil and military officials of the Xia Dynasty had always maintained clear barriers and did not interact with each other.Collusion between local civil and military officials was taboo for superiors and emperors in the officialdom.
It would be much better to take the route of the wife and make diplomacy with the lady.
Now that Ye Shizi is in power, Zhizhou has no relationship with Ye Shizi's family, so let his daughter get in touch first.Ouyang Qin posted this post out of family political needs.
When Ye Xueying received this post, she must also pay attention to it.
Among the many posts, Du Juan singled out this one out of similar considerations.In terms of civil officials in the Xia Dynasty, Yizhou was the largest Zhizhou, and there were about ten prefectures under the prefecture, and the highest official of the prefecture was the Zhifu.There are three to ten counties under one government, and the highest official of the county is the county magistrate.
Zhizhou is the top civil servant in Luozhou, and the Hou Ye family can't help but give face.Ye Xueying replied to the post, promising to go there tomorrow.
The next day, Ye Xueying set off in a carriage, bringing Dujuan and Titmouse, four wives, and a team of family soldiers.
Cuckoo and Titmouse followed suit.The four women are used for rough use after they arrive at the place, carrying spare suitcases, or running errands outside, or carrying sedan chairs and so on.
The family soldiers are naturally protecting the safety, guarding against gangsters, and also preventing unknown people from bumping into the young lady.
When we arrived at Meiyuan, more than a dozen carriages had already parked outside the gate.Ye Xueying realized that she seemed to be late.
When the gatekeeper's wife saw the carriage of the Hou Mansion, she rushed up to greet it.
The gate opened, and the carriage went straight through the second gate.When she got there, Ye Xueying got out of the car, changed the sedan chair and sat in the flower hall.
At the entrance of the flower hall, Ouyang Qin received the notification and was waiting there with a smile on her face.
Ye Xueying received Ouyang Qin at home.Ouyang Qin has a beautiful appearance, is gentle and alert, and is a very cunning girl.All the girls from civil servants admire her.
The flower hall is scented with plum fragrance, and several stoves of animal charcoal are burning.It's freezing outside, but warm as spring inside.
Ye Xueying saw that there were more than a dozen people present.The two ladies from the prefect's family, one from the Tongzhi family, and two from the Zhizhou family knew each other.There are a few others I haven't seen.Ouyang Qin, the eldest lady of Zhizhou's family, introduced to her that the other ladies were either from local aristocratic families, or relatives of Zhizhou's family, and two were from Zhixian's family.
Everyone looked at Ye Xueying curiously. In previous years, it was Ye Yunying who represented the Marquis family. Unexpectedly, there was a replacement this year.
After chatting about the lively events in the city during the Chinese New Year, Ouyang Qin invited everyone to enjoy the plum blossoms.More than a dozen young ladies, in groups of two or three, each seek acquaintances and friends to enjoy the plum blossoms.
Ouyang Qin brought her second younger sister Ouyang Yue to accompany Miss Ye, and they had equal status in Los Angeles.One of the two is the head of the civil servants of the whole state, and the other is the head of the military generals of the whole state.
The plum blossoms in the garden are in full bloom, and there are many different kinds of plum blossoms.Like the rare double-petaled plum blossom and green plum.
Ye Xueying was also amazed.She had never seen so many plum blossoms with her own eyes.
Ouyang Qin is knowledgeable and talented. She introduced all kinds of allusions and interesting stories of plum blossoms to her. She knows all kinds of plum blossoms and can tell the truth.She is a very competent tour guide, and Ye Xueying had a good impression of Ouyang Qin.
After a while, the sky began to snow heavily, one after another, and the sky and the earth were completely white.Los Angeles is located in the northwest, and it is cold and snowy in winter.It snows every year in Los Angeles from October.
Ouyang Qin hurriedly led everyone to take shelter in a warm pavilion in front.
Ouyang Qin is 14 years old, and has no feelings for 11-year-old Ye Xueying. Although she accompanied her wholeheartedly along the way, it was only pure courtesy.According to her mind, she would like to play with the two young ladies from the prefect's family. They are about the same age and share similar interests.
For teenagers, the three-year-old difference is like a gap, not much shallower than the generation gap between two generations.What you pay attention to, what you talk about, and what you learn and speak will all be very different.
The 12-year-old Ouyang Yue was very interested in Miss Ye, and would come over to say a few words from time to time.She looked at Ye Xueying with bright eyes, like a child seeing a favorite toy.
Ye Xueying felt a little uneasy. She looked at Ouyang Yue, she was really an innocent little lolita.She didn't want to take care of the children, but would rather talk more with the knowledgeable Ouyang Qin and learn more about plum blossoms.
"You guys are playing here, it's snowing heavily, I'll look for them." Ouyang Qin took the opportunity to escape.
"Sister Qin, feel free to go, I'll stay here with sister Xueying." Ouyang Yue said sensiblely.
Ouyang Qin is the master, and she is worried that something will happen when the snow falls heavily.Once someone gets hurt or catches a cold or gets sick, she can't escape blame.She left with a group of maids and women.
Ye Xueying was depressed, she felt that she was going to take care of a child again.
Ouyang Yue came over and said curiously: "I heard that some ladies in the army can practice martial arts, can you?"
"I will."
"What do you know?"
"I can do horse riding, archery, and sword dancing." Ye Xueying answered.
"Ah! You are amazing." Ouyang Yue said adoringly.
Ye Xueying was speechless, does knowing these things mean that she is good at it?
"Let's make friends!" Ouyang Yue said eagerly, "In the future, you will often post messages inviting me to your home, and I will learn horse riding and archery from you."
Ye Xueying took a serious look at the little loli in front of her. She had delicate skin and a typical body that was delicate and easy to push down.
She laughed and said, "It's okay to teach you. Anyway, I have a ready-made schoolyard at my house. I have a horse and a bow myself."
Ouyang Yue obviously didn't understand, and said happily, "Great, how many horses do you have? What kind?"
"There are three horses, all given by my family. They are all famous Tianshan horses less than three years old. One is red all over. Blue and white, and a white horse named Yinzi."
"Ah! I should like to see them."
"It's easy. I'll post a post asking you to play some other time, and you can see it." Ye Xueying said politely.
"That's great, I must invite you."
"Ok!"
"We're friends now, aren't we?"
"Yes!" Ye Xueying said perfunctorily.
Ouyang Yue took out a handkerchief and said, "I heard that friends of my daughter's family call handkerchief handover, and they want to exchange handkerchiefs embroidered by themselves. Here, this is mine, how about yours?"
