Chapter 342: Title, Reward and Punishment

The chapter number of the first chapter should be three hundred and forty-one, and it is wrongly marked, sorry for asking for pink tickets one by one, right fingers, and the door of the mansion that fell out of the first ten early in the morning has never been silent. In Chen Yan's impression, except for his grandmother Zhu's Liao Xiangyuan, whether it is Ziningju or Cuiliuju, or his sister Fangfeiguan's Jinxiu Pavilion in the past, there are bursts of voices early in the morning, or sweeping and watering the floor or fetching water and delivering water, or even people coming and going, in short, even if you have leisure, don't want to sleep peacefully, not to mention that for a child of his age, regular living is also a thunderous rule, and the memory of sleeping lazy is almost never left.

Therefore, lying on the bed at this moment, he gently rubbed his cerebellum with his blinking eyes, and glanced at the hanging tent, and always felt that something was wrong. When he finally remembered the events of last night, he hurriedly jumped up from the bed, reached out and tore open the tent as soon as he lifted the quilt, and shouted loudly: "Someone! ”

Seeing the girl who came in after hearing the sound, Chen Yan finally determined that he was not dreaming. He eagerly pulled his shoes and wanted to get out of bed, but as soon as he landed and stood up, he felt a dull pain in his head, and he couldn't help but smash his fist twice with his hand in annoyance, until the girl hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and he frowned into a small pimple.

"Sister Qin Fang, when has it been?"

"Fourth young master, it's three quarters of Chenzheng at this time."

"What!" Chen Yan was startled, and almost didn't pop his eyes out, "How could it be so late!" Why didn't you call me earlier, it's over, the morning martial arts class was completely wrong, if the master knew, maybe how to punish me........."

Seeing that Chen Yan was so anxious that his forehead seemed to be sweating, Qin Fang couldn't help but sigh, and told the little girl to bring in all the clothes, and then explained with a smile: "Fourth young master, don't worry, Miss ordered it last night, so I sent someone to the county lord early this morning to ask for your leave, and specially let you sleep a little longer, after all, it is rare to have a day off." The Hou Mansion also specially sent your clothes over, "I just couldn't do it last night, this middle clothes and so on are all from the master." ”

Chen Yan looked down at the snow-white clothes on his body, and found that a large section of the cuffs had been sewn with a few stitches, and the hem was a little overgrown. However, "what made him pay more attention was his sister Chen Lan.

After asking Qin Fang a few words, and knowing that Chen Lan got up a little earlier than him, he immediately hurriedly dressed and washed, and finally rushed out of the door like a gust of wind. When he hurried to the Yiqing Pavilion, he saw a few girls carrying food boxes to send them inside, and hurriedly walked a few steps.

"Hey, the fourth young master has finally woken up." The sharp-eyed Yun'er had already seen Chen Yan, and at this time she pursed her lips and smiled, "You were so drunk last night that you didn't know who was going on, and it took a few little girls a lot of effort to bathe and change your clothes." ”

"Isn't it just a rare time to drink wine and forget it for a while?" Chen Yan's face turned pale, and then he said seriously, "Don't talk about this again, how can I meet people when it spreads out?" By the way, this is to send breakfast in? ”

"Is the fourth brother outside?"

Before the girls could answer her, a voice came from inside. Hearing that it was Chen Lan asking, Chen Yan picked up the curtain by himself, pulled his legs and stepped into the door. Seeing that after the battle between the bright rooms, Chen Lan opened the bead curtain and came out, and his appearance was even more delicate than a few days ago" He couldn't help but light up his eyes, and he rushed up in three or two steps, and he was not busy saluting, he looked up and down for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister" I was scared to death, but fortunately you're okay! ”

"I'm blessed with a great life, where is it so easy to get into trouble?" Chen Lan saw that Chen Yan's forehead was slightly oily, and after knowing that the incident last night, he deliberately arranged for him to live in a guest room a little farther away, so he let him go all the way for a long time, and handed over the handkerchief in his hand, "Wipe it well, in this cold day, I see that you are sweating again." ”

Chen Yan smiled, took the handkerchief and wiped the corner of his forehead, but he didn't return it at all, but went straight into his arms, and then looked around for a while: "What's the matter, my brother-in-law is not here?" Didn't the emperor say that he gave him a fake, so he couldn't have gone to the court so conscientiously at this moment, right? He's okay with everything, it's just that he's not busy! ”

Seeing Chen Yan's puffing appearance, the few girls who carried the food box to the end of the battle to set up breakfast couldn't help laughing, but after all, last night's incident was not trivial, and even the biggest arrogant Yun'er didn't dare to say half a word. And Chen Lan also waited for them to retreat one by one, and then motioned for Chen Yan to follow him into the back and sit down on the side of the black table.

personally gave Chen Yan a bowl of porridge, and when he took it with a smile, he took a big sip, and then scalded his tongue, Chen Lan couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly poured another glass of warm water and handed it over, and when the people drank it cleanly, she said angrily: "You, how old are you, you still can't change this frizzy nature!" ”

"It's been a long time since I've listened to my sister's lessons, so I miss it." Chen Yan saw Chen Lan's angry and funny appearance, he smiled and bit another huā scroll, and then said vaguely, "Now the master is shouting and punishing, but the gentleman is copying books at most, and even the old lady doesn't teach me much anymore, listening to my sister say these two sentences, it is very ......... kind."

There was no way to knock on the little head across the table, and Chen Lan could only shake his head. Seeing that Chen Yan eliminated a lot of things in three strokes and five divided by two, and then sat and looked at herself, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, who would have thought that Chen Yan's first sentence would make him stunned: "Sister, I don't care what happened to others about the horse yesterday, I will definitely find out that damn guy and give you a good shock!" ”

Chen Yan didn't mention it, as soon as he talked about the frightened horses during the day, Chen Lan couldn't help but think of the horror of the night, and he fell silent for a while. Such a big event was originally impossible to hide, and Chen Yan was thirteen years old after the New Year, and he studied literature and martial arts, and he was no longer the stubborn son of the past. Therefore, after only hesitating for a moment, she motioned for Chen Yan to move the chair to her, and then said word by word: "Remember, in what I said later, no matter what you want to ask, without my permission, you have to endure it for the time being, understand?" ”

Even if he only looked at Chen Lan's solemn face, Chen Yan knew that this must be a trivial matter, and immediately sat up straight. However, despite his mental preparation, his face changed irrepressibly when he heard that so many things had happened on the night when he was drunk. When he heard that the owner of Longquan Nunnery was almost holding his sister hostage in the front yard at that time, he almost jumped up on the table, and only sat down under Chen Lan's fierce gaze.

After listening to this, seeing Chen Lan nodded, Chen Yan, who was almost breathless, slammed his fist on his thigh. Because the strength is really not small," he bared his teeth and grinned before he came to his senses, but when he opened his mouth several times, what he finally spit out was a guilty apology.

Sister, it's all my fault..."

"What does it have to do with you?" Chen Lan stood up with a smile as before, and tapped Chen Yan's head twice, then raised his head and said, "Even if you weren't drunk, I used sweat medicine last night, and I wouldn't let you get involved in such a ...... Little four, don't be so anxious, there will be a time when you will be the pillar in the future. You can't help with last night's incident, but in two or three years, you will be able to become a real reliance on your sister. ”

Although Chen Lan said this, Chen Yan still showed a frustrated expression, and finally nodded reluctantly under Chen Lan's gaze, and then asked: "Since this is the case, then the brother-in-law went to the palace today not for the sake of going to the court, but for the matter of last night?" ”

After the madness in the bath last night, Chen Lan almost leaned on Yang Jinzhou's arm when he went out, and he didn't have any strength after getting into bed. Well, when he went out in the morning, he was so light that she didn't notice it at all, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

"That's right. So in the past two days, there has been an uproar in the capital, your schoolwork can't be delayed, the people around you may wish to bring more, and the tokens of the Hou Mansion are also brought well, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. ”…………………………

It wasn't until noon that Xu Jiang's party got up late. After all, she was a lot older, and she barely fell asleep until the second half of the night when she was busy last night, and finally got a good night's sleep. Knowing that Chen Lan had been waiting outside with Chen Yan for a while, she hurriedly dressed and washed, and when she came out of the house to talk to her sister and brother, she glanced at Chen Yan and asked Chen Lan, "There is no news from the palace yet?" How about this morning? ”

"In the early days, the emperor sent a decree to the emperor, and today he will be exempted from the court. Among the ministers of civil and military affairs, except for a few old monks and scholars, as well as top nobles were summoned to the Wenhua Hall to speak, the rest were ordered to return to the ministry to discuss matters. Chen Lan glanced at Chen Yan as he spoke, thinking that the little guy now has the Zhu family to give that batch of manpower, and the news just now was sent straight to the door here, and he said again, "But His Royal Highness King Jin went to Xi'an Gate early in the morning, but he was blocked and returned to the palace." ”

"This is really a ghost ...... all sides" Jiang Shi rubbed his head, raised his head with his anus and said, "I turned around just to let Brother Yan go to see the county lord, and I don't know if there was any trouble last night." ”

"Mother, I also sent someone to my mother's place in the morning to ask for leave for the fourth brother, but Mother Zhao personally sent a reply letter from the other courtyard, and my mother entered the palace after the emperor left her yesterday afternoon." Chen Lan saw that the Jiang family showed a suddenly realized expression, so he also changed the conversation, "Hengzhi should have nothing to do with us next, and our mother and wife can also recuperate." When Zhao's mother sent the letter, she also said that in a few days, my mother invited us to go to the palace of Xiaotangshan Hot Spring for a few days. ”

Seeing Chen Yan's itchy and unbearable appearance of wanting to go together, Chen Lan deliberately hung his appetite, and talked with the Jiang family for a while about the beautiful scenery of the hot spring, and finally looked at the little guy and said: "Don't worry, my mother has said it, I will take you with me when the time comes, and the hot spring is also the most effective in treating bruises." ”

Just when Chen Yan was dumbfounded, and finally completely cried with a sad face, the sound of Zhuang's mother unendangering the siege came from outside at the right time.

"Old lady, madam, Mrs. Yangning is here!" .................., the mirror garden instrument gate.

Zhu Shi held the hands of the green calyx and the jade peony, carefully stepped on the stirrups and got out of the car, and only after standing firm did he look around. Seeing that the few little guys who had just followed the car had already retreated, and were replaced by the four young daughters-in-law and two mothers-in-law who were standing neatly by the Yimen, whether it was the shadow wall in the eye, the bluestone road, and even the eaves and tiles of those houses, all of which were neat and tidy, not inferior to her own Hou Mansion, she couldn't help but lead slightly. While she was thinking about it, she only heard a shout in her ears.

"Old lady!"

Seeing that it was a figure running forward excitedly, it was Chen Yan, and Zhu's faint smile suddenly spread a lot. When Chen Yan arrived in front of her, she knelt down and kowtowed without saying a word, she couldn't help but sneer at the green calyx: "Don't help your fourth young master, it only snowed last night, even if you just sweep it, it will inevitably be slippery and cold!" ”

"Old lady, my body is strong, where am I so squeamish!" Chen Yan saw that the green calyx did not defend and let go of one of Zhu's arms and took a step back, he winked at him approvingly, and immediately stepped forward to help Zhu, "I'm about to come out under my feet, and Aunt Yang and my sister are behind...... Having said that, on such a cold day, if you have anything to say, or let me tell you, why did you come in person, what if you get frostbitten? ”

Chen Yan tilted his head as he spoke, and looked at Zhu's line, and saw that from the warm forehead to the leather scarf to the lambskin jacket, the big pile of Lanzhou Gu Velvet, and the pair of leather boots with trimmed edges were all neatly organized, he was a little relieved, but he still tightened the big coat that showed some gaps in himself. His carefulness made Zhu even more happy, and when he saw that he didn't even have gloves, he motioned for Yu Shao to hand over the hand stove. Chen Yan hesitated for a moment, and then took it helplessly.

"There are some things that I can't say clearly, so I want to come here myself. Besides, I have hardly been out this year except for one trip to Tongzhou Anyuan, and I will suffocate to death if I stay at home.

Now I borrowed it to see my granddaughter, and by the way, I also came to visit the big garden of my in-laws' house and take a good break. Could it be that Xiaosi, you still plan to drive me back for your sister? ”

"The old lady laughed, how dare I!"

Chen Yan hurriedly denied it, but at this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of movement in the carriage beside him, and when he looked at it again, he saw a small head arched out of the back of the curtain of the carriage, and at this time, he was looking at him with his eyes straight away, and it took a long time before he grinned: "Fourth brother is good!" ”

Finding that the Zhu family actually brought Chen Ting with Chen Yan, Chen Yan couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly looked up to see the Zhu family. Unexpectedly, Zhu was staring at Wu's mother, who was busy holding the child down. When Chen Ting came over, she let go of Yu Shao and took the little guy's hand, then looked at Chen Yan and said: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, and since I came out, I really didn't feel at ease to leave him at home alone, so I simply brought it together." Well, your sister also asked for leave for you today, and you can also help bring Xiaoliu. ”

"Me? Take him? ”

Chen Yan glanced down at Chen Ting, his face couldn't help but be a little strange, and then he couldn't help but think hard about how to shirk it. However, just when he secretly thought that it was better to sneak away to Mr. Han's class as soon as possible, so as to escape from this drudgery, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Chen Lan had already walked out with the Jiang family, and hurriedly and carefully helped the Zhu family to meet him.

Seeing the ceremony, Jiang smiled and said, "On such a cold day, why are you waiting in the wind in person?" Why should I sit down in the small huā hall sheltered from the wind first, and wait for Ah Lan and I to come out and look up. Brother Yan, you are too, and you are not sympathetic to your grandmother. ”

"Don't blame anyone else, if I can't walk now, I can't wait to walk in from the front yard step by step and see what is going on here. We became in-laws, and Mrs. Tai has been to the Hou Mansion several times, but I have never been here......,......

Seeing that the Jiang family and the Zhu family held hands and talked after meeting, they were very happy with each other, Chen Yan saved the trouble of explaining, and took the opportunity to sneak to Chen Lan's side, and then quietly pointed at Chen Ting and said: "Sister, the old lady brought Xiaoliu here, and said that she wanted me to help take him." I can't handle the children, why don't I go to Han ...... later."

"What a child, big child, are you big now?" Chen Lan interrupted Chen Yan's words in a low voice, and seeing that he was stunned for a moment, she knocked on his head coldly, "The sixth brother just lost his mother, although the old lady treats him well, but after all, it is impossible to take care of him all day long." It's hard for him to go out, so you take him around to have a good look and have fun, and you also fulfill your responsibilities as a brother. Well, what did my sister do to you at the beginning, and you are also how you treat the sixth brother now. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Lan stepped forward and pulled Chen Ting, and when she saw that Zhu Shi also let go of her hand knowingly, she took the little guy over, and immediately stuffed his hand to Chen Yan, and said: "It's still early, my mother and I are talking to the old lady, so you can take him around." Aunt Liu is tired of leading the way, Changdi, Hongying, and the two of you are also following. ”

Aunt Liu and Changdi Hongying immediately agreed, and although Chen Yan said that he had a bitter face, he couldn't disobey it, so he had to lower his head and say a few words to Chen Ting. Hearing that he was going to play, Chen Ting's little face suddenly turned red with excitement, and he was so happy that he dragged Chen Yan's hand and waved, while Wu's mother was smiling next to her. stepped forward again to say hello, Chen Yan helplessly pulled Chen Yan away first, and the group entered the Yimen, and disappeared after a while.

sent away the two little guys" Chen Lan stepped forward to help Zhu, and said to his mother-in-law Jiang: "Mother, since the old lady is so interested, let's accompany you while talking" Let the warm sedan car follow behind. When the old lady is tired of the cold, it is not too late to change the sedan chair and go in. ”

Jiang nodded, Zhu was even happier, and the group slowly entered the Yimen. Because there were too many people following behind, Chen Lan only left Zhang's mother, green calyx, and peony brought by the Zhu family, and sent all the daughters-in-law and mother-in-law down to rest, leaving five or six people from his own family to follow from afar. As he walked, Zhu instructed Zhang's mother and the others to also fall away.

"I'm here today" because there was too much movement last night, and I want to ask what's going on: second, because early in the morning, Princess Jin sent someone over, "That person can't speak well, I have already sent Zheng's mother over: Third, it's for family affairs." It's the end of the year, and the Lumi warehouse has begun to distribute a handful of noble Lumi, Lan'er, do you still remember the original will? ”

Chen Lan saw that the Zhu family did not avoid the Jiang family, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the old lady was a lot older, and after all, she was still as careful as a hair, so she thought as she walked, and soon woke up: "What the old lady said is that according to the emperor's will that time, the third uncle should give 100 stones to the fourth in the annual Lu rice?" ”

Only then did Jiang remember that there was another incident, and he couldn't help laughing: "If this is the case, it is a loan, and it is not in vain that Brother Yan has worked so hard."

It's just that the old lady is deliberately mentioning this now, could it be that there is something that can't be done? ”

"It's not an obstacle, but now that I'm an idler, I think about the past when I have nothing to do, and I remembered the words of Grandpa Xia at that time. What is it called, the two words of filial piety are the most important, and what is the white rice of 100 stones? What is the return of farmland, and the sin is not as good as the children? When the second child was the first to take the title, "Why is there such a thing as giving 100 stone Lumi, which lord has such a rule in his family" Isn't it because the elders and young are orderly? Therefore, if your third uncle gives, he will be sitting on the word borrowing, and if he doesn't return it in the future, he will be in the right position of the love stack. If you don't give it, you are breaking your will. I just heard before that before the Caoyun was frozen, Shuntianfu was a snow disaster, and the Lu rice in the Lu rice warehouse could only be sent fifty percent, but he was a high wind and bright festival, and he and Xiao Si's total of 2,000 stone Lu rice were all let out! ”

"Well!"

Chen Lan was busy with all kinds of chores before, but it was the first time he heard such a thing, and he was immediately surprised. And the Jiang family also frowned, and for a while thought of the previous tricks of the family against her husband from wariness to estrangement and even expulsion from the house, the first trick was to suppress people from the name of righteousness, which was undoubtedly the same as Chen Ying's move.

"The third uncle really has a good plan and a good plan!" Chen Lan thought of Chen Ying's sincere fear and embarrassment in front of the emperor last night, and thought of his reluctance to press forward step by step, and couldn't help but sneer, "It's just that the third uncle is too smart, but he forgets that others are not all fools." If there was no last night's incident, it would be fine, but with last night's incident, if he knew that he had donated such 2,000 stone rice, the emperor's heart would definitely be as bright as a mirror. ”

What Zhu wanted to know most was what happened last night, and when he heard this, he hurriedly asked. Chen Lan didn't say it immediately, but nodded to his mother-in-law first, and then motioned for Zhu to get on the sedan chair. It wasn't until she entered the main house of Xifuju that people could see everything from the door to the eaves, that she told everything that happened last night. Speaking of the thrill, she suddenly felt a tightness in her wrist, and when she looked down, it was Zhu who couldn't help but stretch out her hand, so she had to smile and pat the hand, and continued.

It was easy to listen to it, and Zhu, who had palpitations on his face, took a deep breath: "I didn't expect it to be such a dangerous snowy night" ......, it's really embarrassing for Mrs. Tai and you. ”

"I don't have anything, when I come out, the overall situation has been settled, and if I want to be embarrassed, I will be a daughter-in-law." Jiang smiled heartily, and then said, "It's just that, looking at this situation, Yang Ninghou is only afraid that the Holy Family will be worse." Although Brother Yan can't say that he is safe and mountainous, he is much more stable than before. ”

"I just hope it ......"

Zhu rarely came, the biggest purpose of his trip has been achieved, and then he is a lot more relaxed, laughing and gossiping, needlework, and saying that the east and west are short, just like ordinary noblewomen. It wasn't until someone outside reported that Chen Yan was here that the three people in the room were surprised. After a while, I saw Chen Yan enter the room alone, his face a little delicate.

"Old lady, Aunt Yang, sister, there was news from outside just now, so I asked Aunt Liu and Mother Wu to help watch Xiao Liu, and went to the door first...... It is said that the cabinet has just issued the emperor's will, and there were thieves before Taizu Xiaoling, so the king of Jin went to the tomb on his behalf and supervised the emperor's tomb. There is also """" The county lord of Yixing is the eldest princess of Anguo! ”! ……!
