Chapter 819: The Ice River Thaws
The lonely grave, the lonely big locust tree, and the lonely woman unfolded their words against the ill-intentioned man.
Arslen knew Wang Xuanhong's details very well, and he didn't believe that she would observe the festival at all, so he sneered: "You gluttonous spring cat, how can you not eat meat and meat for a day?" ”
"On the day Lao Hei died, my heart also died, and I swore to the gods." Wang Xuanhong's expression was stern.
Arslen asked, "Then why didn't you really go to the nunnery to become a monk?" ”
"I have to raise the eggs, or I'll be a monk sooner." Wang Xuanhong's expression was calm.
"Can you really endure it? Don't take a bite of wild food from now on? Alslen inevitably wavered a little.
Wang Xuanhong said awe-inspiringly: "If I dare to hunt wild food, the old black ghost will appear and strangle me to death." ”
"It's better for me to block the ditch for my eldest brother and guard the two doors." Arslen couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, holding the mentality that if he couldn't get it, others would not get it, and his evil eyebrows were full of fierce eyes, "As long as I hear that a wild man has entered your house and got on your kang, see that I don't cut off the head of your dog girl and offer it to this grave." Unless you get along with me, I will protect you everywhere. ”
"Phew!" Wang Xuanhong spat on the ground, and suddenly seemed to smile on his face, "The old lady doesn't need you to care, you still hurry up and guard your Niangniang Temple, I don't know who dialed the latch for the door of the big red temple." ”
These two sentences seemed to give Alslen a slap in the face, he was stunned for a moment, and then woke up with a strange scream, and ran away like a madman.
"I'm sorry." Wang Xuanhong, who was forced to expose the ugly thing, had no guilt on his face, sent the man away, a dark cloud covered a piece of the sky above his head, and he couldn't help but pounce on Wang Laohei's grave and cry again.
"I can't live outside the gate, I also remember what I said to you, and I will return to the Central Plains with Danzi and the two families in a few days. You're waiting for me. I will come back to see you every year. ”
Jinling Xu Mansion.
At night, Xu Hao sat on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, Mu Ningxue and Ripples talked under the window, and Xu Ye sat beside his father.
At this time, Xu Yu was reviewing his homework under the lamp, Wang Xuanqing walked in, Xu Yu hurriedly put down the book and stepped forward to salute.
Wang Xuanqing said: "You manage the child too tightly, you read all day during the day, and you don't let him go out to play at this time?" ”
Mu Ningxue said: "Who do I care about him?" He refused to put down his books even after school. His brother and sister refused to ask him to play together, and he would become a nerd in the future. ”
Xu Hao smiled: "Nerds are as good as nerds, worry-free." ”
At this time, Xiao sent a maid to ask Brother Yu if he had taken leave from school tomorrow, and Wang Xuanqing asked, "What's the matter tomorrow?" ”
"Ming'er is the concubine's birthday, and she said she wanted to meet Yu'er." Mu Ningxue explained.
"Oh." Wang Xuanqing smiled and said to Xu Hao: "My mother's sister Xuanhong has returned to Beijing, and the family does not want to see her, because it is inconvenient to live in the house with her son and two families. It's not good to settle in the countryside, I think that your newly built Zhuangzi is not taken care of, so it's better to let their girls live in it, and they are used to farm work. ”
Xu Hao asked, "But the one who followed Wang Qianhu?" Wang Qianhu is a good man. Let's move in, I just want to invite some people who know how to farm. ”
Wang Xuanqing said happily: "Then I'll call them in to thank you." ”
"Excuse me." Xu Hao stopped: "No need to be polite, relatives, raise your hands." I don't care about anything else. Second sister-in-law, you can worry about it yourself. ”
"That's nature."
The next day, Xiao Yushi dressed up and changed into a new uniform. The nurse came over with her daughter, teased her a few times, came over early in the morning to sit with Mu Ningxue for a while, and went to Jieshoutang with her daughter.
When Xiao saw them coming, his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law took four carriages with red wheels and green curtains respectively, and Li Dong rode a horse with people all the way to the Huanggu Temple outside the city.
When they arrived at the temple, the little eunuch led the Xiao family into the inside, and another palace maid led them to the inner hall.
Zhang Meiren stepped forward and took Xu Yu's hand, and said with a smile: "We have been friends for many years, and we are all exempt from the formality." Yo, it's just the same mold as his father, he looks smart, how old is it? What books did you read? ”
Xu Yu replied one by one, and Zhang Meiren smiled: "Don't look at the small people, there are really a lot of books to read, and there will be no limit in the future." ”
Xiao Shi was happy in his heart, but Xiao Yushi was a little disappointed, and the concubine just glanced at her baby daughter, and she didn't pay attention to Xu Yu at all.
At this time, the little eunuch came in and said, "The prince called Xu Yu." ”
Zhang Meiren said: "It's rare that King Ning wants to meet the guests, let the children go." ”
Zhu Quan, the king of Ning, entered Beijing during the New Year, and did not return to the fiefdom after the New Year, so he lived in the Huangzhuang near the Huanggu Temple.
Mu Ningxue hurriedly instructed her son and sent it out in person, Xu Yu followed the eunuch out of the Huanggu Temple and entered an inconspicuous courtyard, the decoration and furnishings in the study were very exquisite, and there were some flowers, trees, mountains and stones in the courtyard.
Ning Wang Zhu Quan sat cross-legged on the kang, put down the book, ordered Xu Yu to sit down on the side, and learned that he had entered the family to study and was interested in taking the exam, so he said: "You read Zuo Chuan, what do you think of the current situation in the Spring and Autumn Period?" ”
Xu Yu said: "In the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes only knew how to fight for power and profit, but the hegemony could not last long, so Confucius put forward the word "respect for the king" and persuaded them to understand. I'm just sorry for Qi Huan Jinwen, knowing that he wants to respect the king, why did he only borrow a false name for temporary hegemony? It was passed on to the descendants, and they were all usurped by their subordinates, so it is better to do their best to assist Zhou Tianzi. ”
"There is some truth, for your age, very insightful." Zhu Quan nodded slightly, and secretly said that he was worthy of Xu Hao's son, because the east window was full of sunlight, "The red sun is full of windows, you are right." ”
Xu Yu thought for a moment and said, "Qingyun has a way." ”
Zhu Quan was very happy to hear this, and said with a smile: "Your father is such a genius, I thought he would be a pillar minister, but he retreated bravely at a young age, and this king admires his decisiveness." You have to study hard, and you have to do your best, and your fame will not be below your brother in the future. ”
kept people until noon, and after eating, Zhu Quan asked a lot of questions. Xu Yu said: "Grandmother and mother are waiting in the temple, they have been waiting for a long time, and they are in a hurry. ”
Zhu Quan nodded, untied a Hanyu accessory from his body, and said, "Let's bring it back for you to play." ”
In this way, Xu Yu thanked King Ning and returned to the inner hall, and Xiao took him back in a car.
In the car, Xu Yu took out the Hanyu accessories to show his mother, Mu Ningxue held it in his hand, and the carving was a heavenly horse, which matched the son's physiognomy.
The old lady who was quiet and thoughtful wanted to invite guests to listen to the play, and hand-picked Xu Hao to handle the matter, Xu Hao had to invite relatives and friends of the whole clan to hold a feast in the mansion, and invited the opera troupe raised by relatives.
Because the crowd was too lively, Xiao Shi was so noisy that he had a headache, and he said that he was not happy to go back first. Mu Ningxue was thinking about the children and came back with her.
When I arrived at Huchun Hall, I saw Xu Yu playing with Xu Ye Ripple, and said, "Play for a while, don't patronize and study." ”
Ripple said: "I have a cousin who has been admitted to the Jinshi and has been playing at home for a month in a row. Yu'er, you will also be admitted to the Jinshi in the future, and I will celebrate you. ”
Xu Yu didn't look like a little adult in front of his brothers and sisters, he raised his head and said, "What is a loose jinshi?" ”
Xiangxuan said with a smile: "Brother's tone is really not small, and he will definitely win the champion in the future." ”
Mu Ningxue said: "Children don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, who can hold the fame steadily." ”
Xu Ye touched his younger brother's head and encouraged: "It's impossible for me to take the imperial examination, I hope that the second brother will give his father and mother a long face." ”
At night, Zhang Lianyi returned to his courtyard from Princess Jiaxing and asked the maids, "Where is the uncle?" ”
The maid Ziyu said: "I came to our house just now and said a few words, but I was called away by Sister Songxue." ”
"Hmm." Ripples entered the room to change clothes, Ziyu unfolded the mirror table, and another personal maid, Zijuan, poured a cup of tea.
"Take a break and take a bath." Ripple said to the mirror.
Zijuan said, "Is the princess really going to stay for a long time?" Uncle is busy today, and he has to clean up the yard again. ”
"He's always in this temper, and when he hears the wind, it's rain." Ripple pursed his lips, "It's just a few days of staying occasionally, how can it be possible to stay for a long time?" Besides, even if he lives for a long time, can he still stay in the garden? I'm afraid that even my uncle has to move out to avoid suspicion. ”
"That's good." Zijuan and Ziyu glanced at each other, "We're really worried that the uncle has taken a fancy to the princess, or the princess has taken a fancy to him, so what should we do?" ”
Ripples were stunned, she had never thought of this, and frowned without words after thinking about it. After a long while, he couldn't help but say, "Which of you goes to his house and sees, don't sleep alone with your clothes and get cold." ”
Ziyu turned around and went out with a promise, and came back and said, "Go over and ask, how can there be the shadow of the uncle?" Xu went to the Rainbow Building to find Miss Ye. ”
Zijuan said: "No, he knows that the girl is back, how can there be a reason to go out?" ”
"Where did you go? At this time, the East Garden was locked, and it was impossible to go to the Spring Protection Hall. Ziyu said that she was going out again, "I'd better go to the Rainbow Building and ask." ”
"Don't go." Ripple pulled up a lazy makeup bun, stood up with great interest and said, "Ignore him, you can make the bed for me." ”
The two maids saw that the girl was a little unhappy, and hurriedly walked over to clean up the bed, but unexpectedly, the embroidered Luo Lianzhu tent suddenly protruded, and suddenly covered Ziyu's head, Zijuan was startled, and shouted, "There are ghosts." ”
"Haha!" Xu Ye jumped out from behind the tent and laughed: "You guys are so confused, you don't even know about a big living person hiding in." ”
Ripple suddenly sneered, his face was like a thawing glacier, as bright as the morning glow, "You are really hateful and ridiculous." ”
Xu Ye smiled and asked, "Why do you hate me?" ”
"I won't tell you." Ripple turned around with a smile, "Uncle, let's go, the slave family is going to change clothes and bathe." ”
At the same time, the Yanque Village was very lively, and the king in a new dress stood cramped under the kang, not daring to look up at the beautiful aunt sitting on it, except for Wang Xuanhong's calm expression, everyone else was a little unnatural.
A total of two families who entered the customs with Wang Xuanhong were all farmers who had a great relationship with the late Wang Laohei. (To be continued......)
