Chapter 469 Watch day and night
Caiyu supported Yan Funing: "Let's go, let's go quickly."
They were beating gongs and drums just now, and the noise was not small. I guess this time the street There are people all over the place.
As expected, there were several times more cars, horses and pedestrians going to the street than usual.
Due to the large number of people, the speed of the carriages and horses is the same as that of pedestrians.
When they arrived at Zhuque Street, Yan Funing found a teahouse and paid a little more money to get a seat by the window on the second floor.
As soon as I sat down, people began to gather on both sides of the street downstairs.
Everyone is trying to get a good seat so they can have a better view of the horse parade.
“It’s really lively.” Caiyu sighed.
There are people of different ages, mostly young women.
The purpose is self-evident.
Li Xinheng asked: "Girl, when will the young master come?"
"You all sit down and have some snacks. You will probably have to wait."
Yan Funing greeted They sit down.
A few people were not polite and sat down one after another, eating peanuts and melon seeds.
The tea house gradually filled up with people, and the price for the window seat was higher than before, but there were still people fighting for it.
This is not only true for this teahouse, but also for the restaurant opposite.
It’s obviously not lunch time yet, but the store is full of people.
At this time, two women wearing peach-pink dresses went to the teahouse. When the waiter learned that the window seat was no longer available, they asked one by one at the table if they could change the seat at a high price. Give it to them.
The guests who came later basically paid a high price to occupy the window position, so they refused to give up.
Yan Funing and the others arrived relatively early and chose their location relatively well.
Seeing this, the two women walked up to Yan Funing.
One of them said: "Can I give this table to my lady for ten taels of silver?"
Caiyu was facing away from them, and she suddenly heard a sound that seemed to come from somewhere. However, when he heard the other party's request, he suddenly turned around.
What I saw was actually the two maids I had seen at the gate of Gongyuan when the results were released in spring.
He stood up immediately and said, "You guys start driving, no matter how much money you give us, we won't give it away!"
The voice was crisp and fierce.
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was ready for a fight at any time.
When the two women saw Caiyu, they obviously remembered what happened before and left in a hurry.
Yan Funing saw some clues and asked Caiyu in a low voice: "What, is there a festival?"
Caiyu then explained everything that happened at the gate of Gongyuan that day.
Yan Funing lowered her eyes with a calm expression.
If someone performs well in the imperial examination, it is natural that a noble lady will take notice of him.
Unexpectedly, this matter came so early.
He was spotted in the spring.
Seeing that she was silent, Zhang Tong thought she was sad and uncomfortable, and quickly advised: "The girl is the wife of the young master. Even if others choose a husband, they will avoid those with families."
Yan Funing twitched the corners of her lips: "I'm fine, let's have some snacks."
I thought, this world is probably not as simple as ordinary people think.
The human heart is even more complicated.
Just like, she also has her own thoughts, and someone also has his own thoughts.
After about a quarter of an hour, there were more and more people on the street.
Although there are no empty seats in the teahouse, there are still many guests who come up and discuss sharing a table with others.
Yan Funing was sitting at the window, and Pang Anmeng on the street looked up and saw her.
"Funing." She called out in surprise.
Just when Yan Funing was about to open her mouth to respond, she immediately rushed into the teahouse with a cooing sound and ran upstairs.
In the blink of an eye, Pang Anmeng sat down next to her.
"My brother asked me to come and take a look, and he said that it would be best to choose a husband to go back to." She stretched out three fingers and whispered, "The number one scholar is from your family." After saying one word, she retracted one. He pointed out a finger and said, "The second son of the Yan family is the second son of the Yan family. I don't like that kind of morality." He drew back one finger again and said, "As for the third flower, I don't know who it is. Just take a look." Yan Funing was amused by her tone. .
Pang Anmeng said again: "I'm mainly here to play with you."
"Okay." Yan Funing nodded.
Pang Anmeng stared at her face carefully: "Why are you so soft and soft when you speak, Funing, I like you so much."
Yan Funing pursed her lips and smiled.
With the addition of Pang Anmeng and her non-stop chatter, Yan Funing was made to laugh several times.
In this way, the waiting time passed very quickly.
About half an hour later, someone shouted: "The number one scholar is coming to parade."
People automatically gave way to a lane in the middle of the street, stood on both sides of the street, and stretched their necks.
Everyone who was upstairs stood up and stood on tiptoe to look downstairs.
I saw a festive procession coming in a mighty manner, with the number one pick, the second pick and the third pick each sitting on horseback. The top pick comes first, followed by the second and third overall picks.
It immediately aroused cheers from the spectators.
Many women screamed.
As the team drew closer, the women's shouts became louder and louder.
Many young women threw silk handkerchiefs and purses at the No. 2 pick, and there was constant laughter and frolics.
Compared with the No. 1 Scholar’s expression, which was cold and indifferent, both of them refused to take the silk handkerchief that was thrown at them.
But Tanhua accepted them one by one and nodded with a smile.
Pang Anmeng frowned when he saw this: "I don't like this even more."
When the team arrived at the teahouse, Yan Funing stood up and looked down from the window, her eyes just fixed on Fu Ciyi.
I have to say that he was born extremely well.
Both skin and bones are beautiful.
Sitting on a tall horse like this, he becomes more and more handsome and comes out of the world, as if he has been banished to the world.
It’s just that people are a bit colder.
Suddenly, Fu Ciyi raised his head and met her eyes in the air.
I wonder if it was her imagination, but she seemed to see him smiling slightly.
Just such an almost imperceptible smile made the women present scream louder and louder.
“The No. 1 pick is really handsome, and the No. 2 pick is pretty good too.”
“In the past, it was the Tan Hua Lang who was the most beautiful, but this time it turned out to be the No. 1 pick.”
"Did the number one scholar just smile?"
"Yes, yes, I saw it."
"Oh my God, he looks so good-looking when he smiles."
In the teahouse , Pang Anmeng bumped Yan Funing with her elbow: "I have to say, your husband is really good-looking."
"Thank you for the compliment." Yan Funing smiled.
After she finished speaking, Yan Xinghe also looked at her.
Yan Funing was startled, what did he see her doing?
Averting her eyes in a panic, she accidentally caught a glimpse of a young woman wearing a veil coming out of the corridor on the second floor of the restaurant opposite, with two maids standing on the left and right beside her.
These two maids were the two who just wanted to use ten taels of silver to ask her to give up the table.
I saw the two maids pointing at the figure of Fu Ciyi who had just passed by on the street, and saying something to the veiled woman.
The next moment, the woman raised her eyes and looked towards the teahouse.
Pang Anmeng just happened to pull her to sit sideways, and the woman didn't see her clearly.
Pang Anmeng smiled and joked: "The number one scholar is gone, why are you still looking? You can go back and take a closer look, during the day, at night, all the time."
Yan Funing just picked up the tea cup, Xiaoxiao took a sip of tea. When she heard this, she almost spurted the tea out of her mouth and swallowed it quickly.
“That’s what you said.”
"I'm not wrong."
