Chapter 51: Buddha Beads
The rather ridiculous tone and dragging tone made Fang Yanqing grind his teeth a little, and secretly glared at Feng Ranran, Feng Ranran smiled, and took Fang Yanqing's hand with one hand, "Let's go, go and meet my lovesick brother." β
All the way to another small courtyard with Fang Yanqing, Fang Yanqing looked at the scenery around him, and glanced at Feng Ranran strangely, "Don't you go to your house?"
"What are you doing in my house, of course you went to my brother's yard," Feng Ranran said, looking at the beige bijia on Fang Yanqing's body, "Your clothes are good-looking, I don't know if you can get out of the house later." β
"Huh?" Fang Yanqing listened to the name pronounced out of Feng Ranran's mouth, and frowned, is this the girl's name or what's the name?
Feng Ranran didn't see Fang Yanqing's expression, and shook her head to herself, "Ah, I'm really pampered, I bite everything, and the strength is still very strong, and it bites my hand very painfully every time." β
Listening to the description, it shouldn't be a person, right? How can someone grab and bite someone every day, Fang Yanqing secretly said to himself in his heart. As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I saw the window of the study open, and from the door, I saw Wei Chao standing in the room writing, gently lifting and falling on the paper one by one, not knowing what he was drawing.
This is the first time Fang Yanqing has seen Wei Chao use a brush, and he has seen him use a pen on weekdays, so I don't know how well he writes with a brush.
Feng Ranran also saw Wei Chao, who was concentrating on writing, and secretly gave Fang Yanqing a gesture not to speak, and then pulled Fang Yanqing to pinch his hands and feet and walked into the room, not forgetting to put the mask on his head as he walked, and then leaned against the wall at a fast and unhurried speed, squeezing his throat and coughing twice.
Fang Yanqing squinted his eyes and looked at Feng Ranran's movements, this girl should have wanted to scare Wei Chao. Feng Ranran watched Fang Yanqing cast an inquiring gaze at him, and hurriedly made a gesture to get rid of it, looking at Fang Yanqing with a pitiful expression.
There was the sound of footsteps walking outside from inside the house, Feng Ranran pricked up her ears and listened to the footsteps getting closer and closer, silently counting the beats in her heart, and then,
"Roar!"
Seeing that Wei Chao's face did not change in the slightest, and he didn't even move a step, Feng Ranran seemed to be frozen, embarrassed for a few seconds, and saw his brother's brows slowly wrinkle a small arc, and hurriedly took a step back, took off the mask, pushed Fang Yanqing in front of him, and said obediently, "Brother, I brought Yanqing here." β
In order to cover his good sister, Fang Yanqing first opened and said silently, "I just entered the courtyard and saw what you seem to be drawing, what are you drawing? Can you take a look?"
When Wei Chao heard Fang Yanqing's words, the roots of his ears were a little red, and he touched his nose embarrassedly. Fang Yanqing looked at Wei Chao's movements, and seemed to have guessed something in his heart, and before he could react, he heard Feng Ranran's gasp, this girl actually walked to the desk before Fang Yanqing spoke, and was looking at the picture scroll at this time to gasp.
Forget it, I was going to say that I wouldn't watch it, but now that Feng Ranran has already seen it, let's go and see it myself.
There are only a few light brushstrokes on the picture, a very large leaf, and then there are smaller and smaller leaves behind it, and the angle of the painting is tricky, it seems that he is standing behind a leaf, and under the leaf he sees a person with his back in his back along the gap, and the person can't see the man and woman clearly, but two ink strokes.
I can't see anything at all! Wei Chao's ears were red just now! I thought I was painting myself!
"The photo below was secretly taken by you that day?" Feng Ranran picked up the photo next to him and asked.
"What is secretly taken, I just saw that the scenery was good, so I couldn't help but take the next photo. Wei Chao said as a matter of course, and put the photo on the table, "Let's go, go to the house over there and have some snacks." β
There is generally not enough to eat at the banquet, this kind of behavior of eating snacks in advance to press the stomach is very smart, Fang Yanqing has thought about eating something in advance countless times, but it is not okay, Wei Chao is very considerate to do this.
"Should I go?" Feng Ranran was a little undecided, and looked at Wei Chao a little confused.
"Let's go and eat together. β
I walked to the ear room on the other side, there were several large soft cushions on the ground, and in the middle was a round low wooden table, on which were some snacks, and a big fat cat was nested on a delicate little shelf next to it, with one leg in the air, half of its belly pressed under its body, and it was undulating with one breath and one breath.
"Ahhhh Feng Ranran whispered, refusing to sit against the shelf, as if she was a little afraid of the fat cat.
In the end, Wei Chao sat on the cushion next to the shelf, Xiaoman and Qing Yatou were next to each other, and the two girls were muttering confidant words.
"This is a sweet and sour fish, with a big thorn in the middle, and there are no spines on the sides. "That day, I made sauerkraut fish, and I saw that Fang Yan Qing ate very well, and I probably knew that Fang Yan Qing loved to eat fish, so I deliberately said that I listened to Fang Yanqing.
"Well, good. Fang Yanqing nodded, poked a chopsticks with his chopsticks, and put it in his bowl, "It seems that Zhou Dong has not bought any new goods recently." Fang Yanqing opened his mouth and said, it stands to reason that the new issue of "Poems" should come out yesterday, but when she asked Qing Yatou to buy books, Qing Yatou returned empty-handed.
Wei Chao sighed slightly, "Now that Beijing is in control, the editor-in-chief of Ta Kung Pao was arrested some time ago, and he wrote warning letters to various newspapers and periodicals, so most of the books have not been printed in the past few days." β
"There are also strikes," Feng Ranran added, "last month there were all disasters and strikes, and the court of the dead did not even deal with them, and the people everywhere were angry and chaotic. β
"It's been a month, and no one has dealt with it yet?" Fang Yanqing asked in surprise.
"No one, playing Tai Chi every day, making a pot of porridge in Sichuan and Shu, and everyone in other places is rebellious. Feng Ranran said indignantly, "It looks like it won't last for a month." β
Fang Yanqing knew what Feng Ranran said, his brows furrowed slightly, Feng Ranran and Wei Chao's words, he was willing to believe them, they were well-informed, and they didn't know how many times stronger than themselves knew the way, since they said so, there must be a basis, but they couldn't help but worry about themselves, if the world changed, the Fang Mansion would definitely become a mess, and the uncle might lose the petty official who entered the stream, and his cousin couldn't wait for next year's imperial examination, the fat difference of the uncle on which the Fang Mansion relied was gone, and it would definitely have a great impact, although there was money in the Zhuangzi, but it could only maintain half of the originalγ
After chatting about the situation for a while, estimating that the time was almost up, Fang Yanqing went out with Feng Ranran first, and Wei Chao staggered the time to go to the front hall.
Weifu magnificent, the front hall alone does not know that the house is three or four times bigger, the tables and chairs have been placed, the round table is in the middle with a small bottle of white porcelain with a few flowers, it looks very comfortable, there are large vases in all directions, there is a person high, round belly and thin mouth, the above is painted with a picture of a lady, there is no flower arrangement in it, it is purely put to decorate.
Old Madam Wei was helped out by someone, her silver hair was pulled up, a red orb was lowered on her head, she was wearing a red gown, and she was holding Yue Yao's hand by her side, and sat on the upper seat.
Tang Yiyun was talking to the wife next to her on the side, but when she saw the old lady coming, she hurriedly looked around, saw Fang Yanqing walking with Feng Ranran, and walked up, "My family is very shy to see that people are very shy, thank you Miss Ranran for always accompanying you, I'm tired of Miss Ranran." β
"I have a good relationship with Yanqing, so naturally the two of them walked together, and it was me who took Yanqing's sister. Feng Ranran looked at Tang Yiyun and said innocently, "Mrs. Fang came to find Yan Qing?"
"Oh, I'll take her to meet Mrs. Wei first......"
Before Tang Yiyun finished speaking, she was interrupted by Feng Ranran, "Oh, this, I'll take Yanqing to see my grandmother, Mrs. Fang doesn't have to worry about it, I'll watch Yanqing more." β
Hearing that Tang Yiyun was choked by Feng Ranran and couldn't speak, Fang Yanqing wanted to laugh a little, but fortunately he couldn't help it, just lowered his head and looked at Tang Yiyun a little helplessly.
Tang Yiyun reacted quickly, and a smile immediately appeared on her face again, "Oh, Miss Ranran is really a caring person, then thank you Miss Ran." β
Feng Ranran nodded, pulled Fang Yanqing and walked towards Old Lady Wei, Fang Yanqing looked at Feng Ranran's movements, chuckled and said, "She is my aunt after all, you don't need to talk to her like this." β
Feng Ranran pouted, "I just can't see her looking at you like gold." β
"Gold is precious, are you turning around and praising me with this sentence?" Fang Yanqing narrowed his eyes and said.
"Hmph," Feng Ranran snorted in a dialect, "I mean, she's weighing how much you can sell! β
"So, it's worth a lot to me, isn't it? Fang Yanqing looked at Feng Ranran's snorting and chirping, and persuaded, "I'm not angry, what are you angry about." Alright, let's be happy!"
"Forget it, I'm not angry, in the future, you will be my brother or a human, and my brother will protect you. Feng Ranran listened to Fang Yanqing's persuasion, nodded, and said.
"You girl......" Fang Yanqing heard what Feng Ranran said, and glared at Feng Ranran again, and before he finished speaking, he heard Feng Ranran cry sweetly,
"Grandmother!"
"Ranran is here," Mrs. Wei said with a smile, looking at Fang Yanqing next to her, and also smiled and said, "Yanqing girl is here." β
The words were intimate, Fang Yanqing felt that the old lady seemed to know something, and lowered her head and blessed her body, "Old lady Wei is better than Nanshan and blessed as the East China Sea." Saying that, he beckoned to the girl beside him, took the hand warmer and knee pads wrapped in cloth, took a few steps forward, and said a little embarrassedly, "This is the hand warmer and knee pads I embroidered for the old lady, the embroidery is not very exquisite, I hope the old lady will not dislike it." β
The girl beside Mrs. Wei took a few steps forward, took the things in Fang Yanqing's hand, and handed them to Mrs. Wei.
The longevity peach on it is embroidered exquisitely, the size is different, each longevity peach is also embroidered with different fonts of longevity characters, Mrs. Wei touched the stitches on it and smiled, "Good boy, you are attentive, how can I dislike it." β
Seeing that Mrs. Wei seemed to like the things she embroidered, Fang Yanqing's heart was hanging, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled faintly.
"Look at your stitches, it must have taken a lot of effort, just look at the face and know that you have stayed up late. Mrs. Wei looked at Fang Yanqing's face, said, beckoned, Fang Yanqing took two steps forward, Mrs. Wei took off a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and put it on Fang Yanqing's hand, Fang Yanqing's eyes widened, and she couldn't even breathe, Mrs. Wei said angrily, "It's not a valuable thing, a string of Buddhist beads that I have worn for a long time, this is what I asked for in Longquan Temple, I see that you already have a jade bracelet in your hand, the water color is not bad, I didn't wear it for you, take it quickly." β
Listening to the old lady's words, Fang Yanqing had no choice but to nod and accept the Buddhist beads.
