Tongxian Gong Mansion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's a scene of flowers.
The door of the mansion is full of guests, and the people who come and go to congratulate are all dignitaries in the provincial capital.
The doorman in a big red dress stood at the door and sang loudly: "Fujian Zuobu political envoy Zuo sent a green jade stone lion!" ”
"Fujian according to the deputy envoy of the Inspectorate, the Qing Army Dao Feng sent a pair of longevity jade Ruyi!"
"Lord Chen, the prefect of Fuzhou, send a pair of calligraphy and paintings, and Shou Shi side!"
Gong Yongqing, the former priest of Nanjing Guozi, under the dripping eaves of the second hall, guests from all walks of life congratulated him.
"Supervising the Imperial History, Lord Chen has arrived!"
An official with a smile on his face walked over and bowed his hand to Gong Yongqing and said, "Lord Gong, this time, the junior brother wants to ask you for a bowl of water and wine to drink." ”
Gong Yongqing said with a smile: "Little brother, where is this, you can come to the old man to be happy, where can I wronged you with this little wine, please come inside." ”
The official smiled and bowed his hand.
In the room on the side, Mrs. Gong lifted the curtain and looked at the bustle of the outer hall, and the maidservant on the side said to her: "Madam, you see that even Lord Chen, the prefect of Fuzhou, is here." ”
"Madam, look, that's not Chen Yushi, who is known as the blue sky."
"Madam, look, isn't this Lord Ma of Yandao? This time his gift is not light! ”
The more the maid said, the more joy on Mrs. Gong's face became.
At this time, the doorman's voice suddenly rose a few points, and he said loudly: "Fujian Governor Liu sent a pair of He Lian, a pair of Hetian Yu!" ”
When the maidservant heard this, she said even more excitedly: "Madam, even the governor has sent gifts to congratulate you." ”
Mrs. Gong reprimanded: "Don't I know yet? Do you still need to say it? After following me for so many years, I still haven't made any progress! ”
The maidservant owed and said, "Madam, the lesson is the lesson." ”
Mrs. Gong took a sip of tea and asked, "Young Master, didn't you go to invite someone?" Why haven't you come back yet? ”
"Maybe there's something delaying on the way! Is it for Quanfu to look for it on the road? ”
Mrs. Gong frowned and said, "With such a big person, he can't do anything at all." Tell Quanfu to go to the road to find it, see where the young master is, please don't move. ”
The maidservant said in a low voice: "Madame, don't be anxious, the master said that he would talk about Xie Yuanlang's preparation for the test, so he won't come." ”
"Impatient? Who said I was in a hurry? Hmph, it's just a shame. Half of the guests were congratulating their birthdays, and half of them were still looking at this Xie Yuanlang," Mrs. Gong snorted, "Didn't you win a Xie Yuan?" even set up a score for me, really when my daughter can't get married? ”
Mrs. Gong drank tea upset and waited for a while, but when she saw that Quanfu ran over and said happily, "Madam, madam, the young master is back!" ”
Mrs. Gong nodded and asked, "He is the only one?" ”
"More than that. And a young son! ”
The smile on Mrs. Gong's face suddenly floated.
"Congratulations, ma'am!"
Mrs. Gong reprimanded: "Congratulations, go, tell the young lady, when the eldest lord invites Xie Yuanlang to the elegant hall, let her come up to celebrate the birthday of the eldest master, remember, let her put on the pair of Burmese jade earrings when she arrives, she looks good when she wears this!" ”
"Yes. Madam! The handmaid withdrew.
But seeing that Mrs. Gong was happy to move her eyebrows, she paced around the house. Seeing the maidservants on the left and right looking at her and snickering, she couldn't help but scold: "What are you still waiting for, retreat for me!" ”
"Yes."
Mrs. Gong smiled, and at the same time, several adults such as the prefect, the prefect, and the imperial history asked Gong Yongqing: "Didn't you hear that Xie Yuanlang was coming?" ”
"Why hasn't it been seen yet?"Gong Yongqing reluctantly explained: "Maybe it's about preparing to enter Beijing to catch the exam." So don't come. ”
"The Lord of the Wine Sacrifice is the Wenzong of the Mansion, and it is also appropriate for Xie Yuanlang to try to come here." The officials were a little disappointed.
But since I have already promised to come, I suddenly miss the appointment, which is too rude! ‘
As he was talking, the doorman said: "Master Lin has arrived!" ”
Gong Yongqing stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Heh." Xie Yuanlang is here! ”
Everyone said together: "Today's sacrifice wine is long-lived, Xie Yuanlang is a visit!" ”
Gong Yongqing heard that Lin Yanchao was coming, and he was not stingy with praise at the moment: "See the smile and laugh, before Wang Fengzhou returned to Beijing, he praised the old man for being a genius that I have never met in a hundred years in the Ming Dynasty, the old man is old, I am afraid that he will live behind this young man." ”
A county magistrate said: "I heard that this Xie Yuanlang is not weak in his youth, that is, he is the head of the township, he is young, and he is so sharp and compelling, it really makes my predecessors who have worked hard for decades to receive the township book ashamed." ”
Chen Yushi said: "In a hundred years, there are always a few people's talents, which are also bestowed by heaven, which is a sign of the prosperity of our society, which cannot be compared, cannot be compared." ”
It's a pity that the old man has not had the opportunity to meet Xie Yuanlang so far. ‘
One said: "I've never seen it either." ”
Gong Yongqing said with a smile: "Isn't Xie Yuanlang here now?" Just meet with the old man! ”
"Exactly!"
"I should have a glimpse of this afterlife."
Saying that, everyone got up together and came to the front of the second hall, but when they saw a young man coming slowly, they said after seeing everyone: "How dare you ask a few seniors to greet you in person." ”
An official said with a smile: "Why can't you afford to be a new branch of Xie Yuan, this is also the meaning of the court's generous scholars." ”
Lin Yanchao said to Gong Yongqing: "The late-born Lin Yanchao celebrates the birthday of the wine, the blessing is like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and the longevity is better than the old pine of Nanshan!" ”
Listening to Lin Yanchao's words, Gong Yongqing laughed and said, "Xie Xie Yuanlang Jiyan." ‘
The officials saw that Lin Yanchao was young, but his demeanor was steady, and they were all very appreciative.
'Sacrificial wine is today's birthday, and the late life will bring a thin gift, and if it is not thoughtful, please don't be surprised by the sacrificial wine. ‘
Gong Yongqing said with a smile: "It's good that Xie Yuanlang is here, and he is so polite." ‘
Lin Yanchao said with a smile: "It was prepared in Xia Neizi, and he said that the sacrificial wine is a person who is blessed with longevity, so he embroidered a 10,000-character brocade for the sacrificial wine lord." ‘
'Uchiko? Gong Yongqing couldn't help frowning.
The officials on the side who didn't know the truth all smiled and said: "It turns out that Xie Yuanlang is already married at a young age. ‘
"yes, I wanted to kiss you." ‘
'I don't know which girl is so blessed to be the main room of Xie Yuanlang? ‘
This official knows a little, it seems that she is the adopted daughter-in-law of the family! ‘
Lin Yanchao hurriedly said ashamedly: "Exactly, it made a few seniors laugh." ‘
As soon as Lin Yanchao's words fell, Mrs. Gong in the room next to her heard this sentence, and she was suddenly dizzy, and she had been thinking about it for so long, and the wishful son-in-law in her mind actually admitted that she already had a wife in front of everyone and the dignitaries in the city, isn't this in front of her own family, slapping herself in the face?
'How can this be true, how can this be reasonable, this is so deceiving, I am blind! Mrs. Gong was angry and angry, and suddenly felt that her eyes were dark, and the whole person fell straight down.
'Madame! ‘
'Madame! ‘
'Oh no, Madame fainted!' ‘
'Call the doctor!' ‘
The maidservants were in a hurry. (To be continued.) )
