Chapter 478: Feiyan and Concubine Yang (I)
In an elegant side hall of Lixiang Courtyard, Wei Hanlin sat and waited upright, drinking phoenix marrow tea. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info tea is good tea, fragrant and elegant. But he was very impatient in his heart. He was busy with official business, but no one from the Xue family came out to entertain him for half a day.
In the backyard, Aunt Xue and Baochai were also waiting anxiously. The Xue family's old history in the capital, except for the four families of Jia Shi and Wang Xue, are all first-class figures of the imperial merchants. When is there an old relationship with Hanlim? Xue Pan was not at home at this time, and even if he was at home, Aunt Xue was not at ease that he would come forward to receive a noble Hanlin.
One is that his son's temperament is unstable, and the other is that the identity and status of the two are too far apart.
Jia Zheng was still sitting in the yamen, and Aunt Xue hurriedly sent Xiangling to invite Jia Huan. This is a character with equal status, who can be hospitable.
Jia Huan came from Qiushuangzhai, and it was already half an hour later when he arrived in Lixiang Courtyard. He was sweating a little and it was hot.
In the backyard hall of Lixiangyuan, the furnishings are exquisite. The sun was shining through the window, and the porcelain on the half table under the window was shiny. The quiet, cool air infiltrates out.
When Baochai saw Jia Huan coming in, he stood up and wanted to avoid it.
Aunt Xue hurriedly stopped: "Oh, my son, when is this?" Don't shy away from it. Then he smiled and said to Jia Huan: "Brother Huan'er, but there is a Hanlin surnamed Wei who came to the door, I don't know what is going on, and I want you to help entertain one or two." ā
"Mr. Wei?" Jia Huan felt strange in his heart. There are only so many people in Hanlin, although he has not "worked" in the Hanlin Academy, he still knows the names of the people. Hanlin, surnamed Wei, only has his room master, the father-in-law of the senior brother.
"Auntie, don't worry, I'll go ahead and see Mr. Wei." The marriage is still married, of course Jia Huan doesn't need to change his words, he should come down, nod to Baochai again, signal her to feel at ease, and go to the front yard to see Wei Hanlin.
The servants of the Xue family took Jia Huan to the side hall. Jia Huan smiled and saluted, "Mr. Wei..."
Wei Hanlin complained unhappily: "Why did you come out so slowly? He was not surprised at all that Jia Huan came forward to entertain him on behalf of the Xue family. After all, the Xue family lives in Jiafu. Moreover, Jia Huan took marriage leave at home.
Jia Huan showed a wry smile. Fortunately, he knew Wei Hanlin's temper and didn't care.
Wei Hanlin took out a letter and said, "This is Mei Hanlin's letter to the deceased of the Xue family. His son had a marriage contract with the daughter of the Xue family. Now, he was relegated to Hamiwei, saying that he didn't have to suffer the daughter of the deceased. I'm going to quit this family business. The marriage book is in my hand, and when the Xue family comes to Beijing, I will give it to him personally. Let's talk to the Xue family first. ā
Wei Hanlin has a very bad temper and a stubborn personality, but he still does things properly. Even if he believed Jia Huan, he would still hand over the marriage book to Xue Zhen with his own hands.
Jia Huan knew what was going on as soon as he heard it: Mei Hanlin wanted to withdraw the marriage contract of Xue Baoqin, Xue Zhen's sister. Xue Zhen is Xue Pan's cousin. took the letter and said, "Mr. Wei, I know." I'll explain the situation to Aunt Xue later. ā
"Hmm." Wei Hanlin finished talking about the matter, didn't stay long, and said goodbye and left.
Jia Huan sent Wei Hanlin out, and then returned to the backyard, gave Mei Hanlin's letter to Aunt Xue, and told Aunt Xue about the situation.
Speaking of which, in ancient marriages, women married at an earlier age. Xue Baoqin is younger than Baochai and will get married this year. In the autumn of the thirteenth year of the Red Mansion, Xue Zhen was about to take Xue Baoqin to Beijing to complete the marriage. For another example, Shi Xiangyun got engaged when he was more than eleven years old this year.
At this time, Baochai had avoided it and was not in the living room.
Aunt Xue, dressed in a brown gown and dressed as a rich wife, was in her forties, sat on the precious pear blossom wood chair and muttered for a while, "Brother Huan, I know about this." Let's see when I bring the letter back to Jinling. ā
He sighed again, "My niece is not blessed either." Her father gave her to the son of Mehan Lin in Beijing that year. He died the following year. Now my mother has phlegm. The family road is in decline. There is an elder brother above, this marriage contract is dissolved, where to pick a good one for a while? ā
Jia Huan didn't feel much about Aunt Xue's fluttering emotion. She's a little sincere, it's hard to say.
Moreover, according to the description of the original book of Red Mansions, Xue Baoqin is very beautiful and can write poetry. Jia Mu once wanted to give it to Baoyu. Xue Baoqin wants to choose, I'm afraid there is still room for choice!
Tongxi came in and poured tea for Jia Huan. Aunt Xue smiled: "Brother Huan, thank you for your hospitality today. Your eldest brother, alas..., will not mention him. "Tell Tongxi," go and take a piece of the newly arrived phoenix pith tea this year to Brother Huan'er. "I left Jia Huan to eat.
Jia Huan helped the Xue family come forward to entertain the guests, because of his status, and then said: "Auntie left the meal, it should have been to stay." It's just that there are still some things that I will receive another day. "He has a general relationship with Aunt Xue. Immediately, take the phoenix marrow tea and look back at the moon residence.
Phoenix pith tea, of course, is not phoenix pith, but a precious tea, also known as green phoenix pith. is the so-called: Gu Ding's new cooking phoenix pith incense, that can be Cui Qiong Qiong syrup. Origin, Jian'an County, Fujian Province. It was first seen in Tang Li Zhao's "National History Supplement". Xu Yingqiu of the Ming Dynasty also said in "Yuzhitang Talks": "The green (phoenix) pith of Jian'an...... This Tang and Song Dynasty tea place name also. ā
Su Shi has a word cloud: The old dragon group, the real essence, the point will be free in the future. Taste the tongue back in an instant. Huang Baozhen of the Qing Dynasty wrote in "Supplementing the Category of Things? Food & Beverage? "Tea" said: "Cicada paste, phoenix pith, divided into eight cakes of strong fragrance." ā
Jia Huan has lived here for six or seven years, and he is a family like Jiafu, so he knows a little about tea. Walking on the bluestone slab, the shade on both sides is thick, and only the cicadas are quiet in the afternoon.
The custom is expensive tea, and there are many famous products. Jian'an Qingfeng pith is the most author.
Jia Huan looked at the piece of tea wrapped in oil paper in his hand, and was in a good mood. He reminded Aunt Xue to help entertain the guests, and Aunt Xue thought he could get the idea. It is a manifestation of his power in charge of Jiafu and beyond.

said that in the autumn shuangzhai, Jia Huan called Xiangling away, Daiyu and Sanchun talked for a while, and then dispersed.
Shi Xiangyun first went to Sister Feng's place, then went to Li Gongxi's Daoxiang Village, then went to Yihong Courtyard, and then came to Qiushuangzhai. Tanchun, who listened to it, said that Jia Huan called Aunt Xue out to entertain guests, and heard Tanchun tell him what happened just now, her pretty face was slightly red, and she talked to Tanchun and went to Xiaoxiang Hall to see the attackers.
Daiyu came out of Qiushuangzhai, and because Jia Huan called Xue's house to entertain guests, she felt a little depressed in her heart. Along the way, she climbed mountains and crossed rivers, crossed trees and wore flowers, and at the end of April, she sold flower mounds and looked at the bulging small earthen bags.
Daiyu is dressed in a beautiful white background and yellow flowers, and her posture is delicate and graceful. A girl with a beautiful face. She squatted down among the secluded and beautiful green trees and flowers, patted the dirt bag gently, and thought: I don't know if the flowers have melted inside? I thought of the "Funeral Flower Yin" I did that day: if I didn't collect the beautiful bones, I would cover the wind with a pure land. The essence is clean and clean, which is better than dirt and ditches.
The feelings and sorrows in my heart swelled up, and I couldn't help but chant softly: "The strange slave is very sad, half for the pity of the spring and half of the annoyance: the pity of the spring is suddenly annoyed, and the word is not heard...... The soul of the flower and the soul of the bird are always difficult to stay, and the bird is speechless and the flower is ashamed. May the slave give birth to wings and fly with the flowers to the end of the sky. ā
"If Brother Huan hears me write such poems, I'm afraid I will say that I don't take care of my health. Punish me for exercising. Daiyu chanted, thinking about the man in her heart. He's getting married. The feelings in my heart are haunting and consolidating. Sigh, stand up, and muttered to himself.
Suddenly, I slapped someone from behind. Daiyu was startled, and when she turned around, she saw Xiangling standing with a smile, let out a long breath, and said, "You stupid girl, it's good to bluff me like this." Where are you from? ā
Xiangling grinned and lifted the small bag of oil-paper bags in her hand, "Well, our girl asked me to bring tea to the girl, and asked me to hand it over to the girl personally." I didn't find a girl anywhere, but I heard someone chanting poetry here, and guessed it was a girl. Come and see, it's true! ā
Daiyu's poetry is famous in the boudoir. I heard that she also published poems and articles in newspapers under the pen name "Concubine Xiaoxiang". Xiangling was very envious in her heart. Isn't the third master of the family a famous poet?
Daiyu smiled lightly, stepped on the goose warm stone road with embroidered shoes, and said, "Sister Bao is bothered." ā
"Good girl, let's go. Go home and sit. Xiangling said, taking Daiyu's hand and walking towards the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Xiangling's temperament is gentle and quiet. However, there will be some stupidity and silliness. She is very willing to be close to Daiyu.

The next morning, Jia Huan didn't write or read in the house, and took Qingwen and Ruyi to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. He heard Qingwen say last night that Daiyu was in a bad mood.
The reason, Jia Huan doesn't need to guess to know.
The best scenery in the Grand View Garden is: Yihong Courtyard, Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Wuyuan, and Daoxiang Village. Among them, the Xiaoxiang Pavilion is located on the left side of the main entrance to the south of the Grand View Garden.
Jia Huan and the three of them entered the garden at the corner gate in the northwest, walked straight east along the Yongdao, passed the Yuyin Hall where the opera troupe was located in the garden, saw the Lixiang Courtyard outside through the wall, and went straight to Zilingzhou to welcome spring.
Go straight further south. Along the way, you will pass through the warm incense dock of cherishing spring, the Daoxiang village of Li Kun, and the autumn shuangzhai of exploring spring. Go east to Daiyu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion. The outer room of the courtyard of Xiaoxiang Pavilion is covered by thousands of green bamboos. The entrance is a zigzag verandah, and the stones under the steps are spread into a road.
At seven o'clock in the morning in summer, the cool air between heaven and earth has not completely dissipated. The breeze blows, the phoenix tail is forested, and the dragon is chanting. As the saying goes: Don't shake the broken shadows, good dreams are long at the beginning of the day.
When Jia Huan arrived, Daiyu had already gotten up. Jia Huan's schedule for her is to go to bed early and get up early. A regular life is in line with the way of health preservation. As for the nonsense of the monk "can't see tears", it is bluffing and pretending. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine: sorrow for the lungs and thoughts for the spleen. That's where the root knot lies.
Daiyu recuperated in Jinling for more than a year according to the prescription of the imperial doctor. Coupled with some modern health knowledge that Jia Huan knows, her body is much better than in the original book of Red Mansions. The blessing of recuperation can be eternal.
Daiyu's autumn-like eyes fell on Jia Huan, her eyes were shining, and her delicate jade face showed a happy smile, letting Jia Huan sit down, Zijuan poured tea, and said curiously: "Why did Brother Huan come to me so early today?" ā
Jia Huan smiled slightly and said, "I wrote a new poem, and I want to taste it with my sister." ā
Daiyu's beautiful and flawless melon seed face flashed with a touch of crimson clouds. Brother Huan said "sanctimonious", a serious one, in fact: I miss her, so I came to see her in the morning.
