Qin Hanzhen noticed the frequency of his grandfather Qin Bai and cousin Qin Jian's frequent outings. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It seems that after the weather gets colder, they go out more often.

She also asked Qin Bai, and Qin Bai said that he was just going to revisit the places he had been in his youth, and if possible, he would inquire about the whereabouts of the old people he met at that time. As for Qin Jian, he directly said that he was going out to play or shop.

Qin Hanzhen was skeptical of their answers.

Qin Bai really wants to revisit the old place, there is no need to go out in this kind of weather, and he only goes for half a day at most at a time, which place of interest is enough for him to visit, and he also goes back and forth?

As for Qin Jian, if he could bring something new back with him every time he went home, maybe Qin Hanzhen would still believe him. Besides, on a very cold day, what is there to play for a person? A few days ago, he said that he would stay in a warm home until the ice and snow melted, and he did not want to go out in the rain and snow to blow the cold wind. It's only been a few days since he changed his mind?

Moreover, the murderer of the Shangyuan County Ling murder case has not yet been arrested. The Yamen of the Jinling prefect was equipped with manpower and searched everywhere. It's when the wind is tight, and the atmosphere in the city is not good, so what's the door when there's nothing to do at this time?

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but spit out with his grandmother Niu in private, but Niu said: "Your grandfather has his own reasons for acting, so don't pursue it." He has been gone for more than 30 years, and I don't know how many of those old people and old places still exist in the world, and your grandfather must feel uncomfortable. As long as your grandfather comes home and eats well, dresses warmly, sleeps soundly, and is in a good mood, we don't care about it. ”

Well, my grandmother's grandfather's number one brain-dead fan is not broken, and Qin Hanzhen is helpless about it.

As for Qin Jian, Niu's guess was also very simple: "It's very common for your grandfather to take him with him when he goes out." When he went out alone, he must have had fun on his own. Don't listen to him always saying that it's warm at home and cold outside, and he shouldn't go out again. Where is a child of their age so honest? Holding him to death, he still has to run out desperately. Your father was skinier than him when he was a child, and Brother Jian was much more well-behaved than your father back then. It's not that he doesn't have people with him, and he has money on him, so let him go. The people around him were all sent to him by the long house, and if he did something he shouldn't have done, he would have spoken out to admonish him a long time ago, and he would have come to tell us. Since they didn't say this, it can be seen that Brother Jian is still acting in a measured manner. ”

There is some truth to that. Qin Han really thought about it, if he changed himself, would he really not go out for a few days, ten days, or even a month and a half because of the cold weather outside? Now that she is trapped in the mansion and unable to move freely, why should she stop Qin Jian from experiencing the benefits of this Jinling City?

Qin Hanzhen let go of this matter, and the Niu family had something to say to her again: "Sister Sang, a few days ago, your grandfather said that he would take me to various villages and towns by boat to watch plays, and I was very happy at that time, so I agreed." Now that I think about it, it seems that I don't want to go again. It's a mess outside, and the weather is not good, so why should I make trouble for your grandfather at this time? Even if you want to watch a play, you can wait until the first month of the year. I heard that our clan is going to invite a troupe. Isn't it much better to watch a play in your own place than to go outside?"

As soon as Qin Hanzhen heard it, he knew that this was his grandmother's thoughtfulness towards his grandfather, so he changed his mind. She's not that playful either, so if she doesn't go, she won't go. In fact, she didn't understand the drama performance at this time, let alone have any interest.

Niu's cancellation of the travel plan, Qin Bai got the news and rushed over to ask. Niu insisted that he was afraid of the cold weather and trouble, and did not want to go out. Seeing this, Qin Bai no longer persuaded her, but said: "It's okay if you don't go out, it's cold outside, your body is good, don't blow the wind again." Every year, our clan also invites the opera troupe to sing for three days, in the opera garden behind the ancestral hall. It is much warmer to listen to the drama there than to take a boat in the village or town. When the time comes, let's go back to the clan, pick the plays you like to listen to, and ask the people in the troupe to sing them, which is better than the ones outside. ”

Niu smiled happily: "Really, that dare to be good." It's just that I've heard my favorite plays, and I don't know if I can sing them here. Speaking of which, the drama here is very different from the Northwest, I'm afraid I can't even understand what the actors are singing. ”

Qin Bai smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll tell you when the time comes, it's the same." ”

Their old husband and wife sat in one place affectionately and whispered, Qin Hanzhen quietly moved a foot away, stared at the book in his hand, and sighed silently.

When there were nearly ten days left before the wax moon, Zhao Mo finally came back. He had already learned about Qin Bai's family's move into Jinling City from the messenger of the carriage and horse shop, and when he came back, he did not go to Jiangning, but went directly to the Confucius Temple in the city. The detailed address of this place, he heard Qin Hanzhen and Qin Jian say. It didn't take much effort to find the place.

Qin Hanzhen's family was very pleasantly surprised. I thought that Zhao Mo would arrive in a few more days, but I didn't expect him to come back so early. Look at his dusty body, and I don't know how many sins he suffered on the way. Niu Shi shouted at the girls and mothers-in-law to immediately boil hot water, so that Zhao Mo happily took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, ate and drank enough, and then came to talk.

Zhao Mo looked in good spirits, and although he was a little tired between his eyebrows, he had a good complexion. Speaking and acting, it seems that there is a faint difference from before, but if you want to say what is different, people can't say it.

When he returned this time, he naturally brought a lot of gifts, and sent them to the courtyard of East Road one by one, and he personally picked them out when he was free.

But as if he couldn't wait, he ordered someone to carry a few boxes to the main courtyard, personally opened the boxes, took out the gifts one by one to show everyone, and gave them directly.

The four treasures of the study room for Qin Bai and Qin Jian, the silk embroidery and jewelry for Niu's family, and the exquisite gadgets bought for Qin Hanzhen were packed in different boxes and were well organized. Zhao Mo himself is noble, and he has been studying since he was a child, and his taste is very good, and the gifts he chose were liked by everyone at a glance. When you think about it, there is nothing that they don't like.

Qin Hanzhen looked at the delicate copper hand stoves and couldn't put it down. Hand stoves are big and small, the big ones can be used as foot stoves, and the small ones are only as big as oranges, which can be held in the palm of the hand, and it is most convenient to take them out in winter, and it is difficult for the craftsman to make it.

There are also some bamboo products that are not suitable for use at the moment, such as pen holders, arm rests, etc., which are also amazingly crafted. Such handicrafts, in modern times, do not know where to buy, even if there are sold, it must be expensive. Zhao Mo actually walked around the street a few times, and bought it back at will, and the most expensive price was only two or three hundred wen, which made people sigh at the superb skills of the ancient craftsmen and the injustice of this era to them.

Qin Hanzhen said to Zhao Mo very solemnly: "When I have time to go back, I will also go to the cultural and entertainment shops in Jinling City to see if there are any such exquisite and cheap good things to sell." Cousin Zhao, look at how fine the carving is, it's just art!"

Zhao Mo didn't know if he understood her words, he just smiled and said, "Cousin likes it, if you want more, just buy it." I asked my cousin about the places in the city that sold these things. If there is no one in Jinling City, then go back to Huzhou to buy it, there are many such things there, ten taels of silver to take out, and a cart to pull it, how delicate it is. ”

He told Qin Hanzhen: "There is a huge bamboo sea over there in Huzhou, and it is full of bamboos at a glance, full of verdant, but beautiful! ”

Qin Hanzhen remembered, if it was near Huzhou, it should be Anji Zhuhai, right? She had planned to travel there before she crossed, but later because something happened, the plan was canceled. Could it be that she came to ancient times, and she can still make up for her past regrets?

They were discussing bamboo products and handicrafts here, and over there, Xiang Niu, Mama Hu, and Mama Wei were already holding the silk that Zhao Mo bought, and they were amazed.

Mama Hu said: "This silk in the south of the Yangtze River is different! It is light, soft, and smooth to the touch, and I am afraid that my hands will be thick and scratch the material." How much silver does this horse get?"

Mama Wei said: "This looks not much worse than the tribute, it is rare that the color pattern is so elegant." I see, it's stronger than the ones that Zhao Xiaogongzi asked people to bring back a few days ago!"

Niu Shi held another heavier material and took a closer look: "This is Song Jin? "Pull another piece of material," said the top sign, which is Shuanglin Ayajuan. I haven't heard of this kind of material, it's light, thin and soft, like a cloud of fog, how can it be woven?" Then I went to look at the embroidery, and I only felt that the fineness of the embroidery was a little stronger than the embroidered clothes worn by the concubine Xu who had seen it in the Chengenhou Mansion in the capital.

Zhao Mo couldn't help but smile reassuring when he heard that his uncle and grandmother were very satisfied with his gift.

Qin Jian walked over to him with a smile, still holding a porcelain jar of high-grade Gu Zhu purple bamboo shoots good tea he gave him: "Last time you wrote to bring something, you said that you found a business opportunity outside, what is it? You seem to have brought back a lot of tea this time, could it be that this is what you said?"

Zhao Mo smiled and didn't answer explicitly, but said: "This tea is excellent to buy and give away or drink for yourself." There are also a few cans of wild tea from Moganshan, which are not much worse than what we often drink in Beijing. In fact, these are all good teas, but those are all praised in Beijing, and they can't look down on other teas. If you really want to drink it, they are not necessarily worse than other teas. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Mo dug out two fist-sized blue and white porcelain jars from a box and said to Qin Jian: "These two jars are the Yuqianjing mountain tea that I finally got in Hangzhou. I remember a few days ago, when we met Uncle Zhao from Liyang Palace, he mentioned that he liked to drink this. It's hard for me to go out, and now that I'm back, I have to bring him a gift. Only send two cans of tea, it seems that there are some simple books, and add two boxes of West Lake lotus root powder, what do you think? Lotus root powder is eaten, it can also support people, my uncle is weak, and it should be quite appropriate to send him this. ”

Qin Jian blinked, laughed dryly, and his eyes involuntarily drifted in the direction of Qin Bai.
