Chapter 207: Garden
This meal is obviously very light, but Huang Qingfang eats it very well, and she has plans to study more fasting methods in the future. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
She has been in a bad mood since the marriage, and she didn't feel much happier until today, and at the same time, she felt more and more that she had no eyes in the past, why was she coaxed by Zhang Gongzi's sweet words? !
At that time, she and he were an unmarried couple, and he treated her with kindness, although she felt that he had many bad habits, but as long as his affection for her was true, what could he not bear? The love of childhood sweethearts is not fun. He was seriously ill, and she was really anxious and sad; he said that he did not want to trouble her, and he would definitely withdraw from the marriage, but she would not agree to death; later, although she reluctantly agreed to it under the sorrow of her father, the tears of her mother, and the bitter persuasion of her brothers and sisters-in-law, she really had in her heart that once he died of illness, she would not hesitate to keep his filial piety for him for three years-even if she missed the flowering period because of this! Even after the marriage was withdrawn, she heard that he had recovered from his illness, and thought that this marriage contract was expected to be renewed.
Who knows, from beginning to end, she was just coaxed. Zhang Gongzi didn't treat her sincerely, and even the friendship of childhood sweethearts for many years was not worth mentioning in his heart. Otherwise, he retired from marriage, and he also married the beautiful lady in his heart, it was the time when he was complacent, so why did he plant her a bad character and punish her husband in order not to let people say that he was treacherous?
Huang Qingfang left the capital and went to Jinling, during which he was depressed, and after arriving in Jinling, he fell ill for two months, not just because of emotional injuries. She just couldn't understand how a person could suddenly change his face? And she never found out? What she resented was Zhang Gongzi's ruthlessness, and at the same time she had her own stupidity. It is impossible to say that she still has any nostalgia for Zhang Gongzi at this time. She is also the daughter of a wealthy family, she has been familiar with poetry since she was a child, knows what self-esteem and self-love are, and is not so cheap.
And Zhang Gongzi ran to Jiangnan to entangle her, and the hatred in her heart was even deeper. That is, her brother and sister-in-law and her family have been blocking and not letting Zhang Gongzi run in front of her. If they had already met, I am afraid that she would have scolded people back a long time ago. Now that time has passed, the anger in her heart has dissipated a lot, and when facing her ex-fiancé, she can barely calmly mock her. But that's enough. Zhang Gongzi always remembered that she knew that he was "seriously ill and dying", and she still did not give up, thinking that she would always be infatuated with him, and she only needed him to say a few sweet words, and she would accept him again, what a naïve! She was so ruthless on the Yangtze River that she asked the girl to poke him into the water, and today she can find a place where no one is in the deep mountains and old forests, and bury him cleanly!
However, since the grandson of the King of Liao took people over, and there was a place to use him, Huang Qingfang was also happy to let go. If the Zhang family really wants to confront the Wang family, she is afraid that some of them will suffer hardship, so she just needs to watch the play. As long as Zhang Gongzi and his family don't come to block her, she doesn't bother to care about their life or death.
Thinking like this, it seems that some people can't stand the second elder of the Zhang family. When she was a child, the second elder treated her very well. But the second elder didn't teach his children and grandchildren well, and made them snobbish villains, and he couldn't blame others for his current fate. If one day, the Zhang family is really affected by the Wang family and falls into bad luck, she will remember that in the middle of July every year, she will give the second elder a stick of incense and worship one or two.
Huang Qingfang was in a good mood and finished eating, and took her sister-in-law to walk around the West Garden, and also admired several halls in the temple, saluted the Buddha, and offered incense, before planning to take the carriage back.
As for Zhang Gongzi, he had already asked Zhao Mo to arrange for someone to send him away. Huang Qingfang didn't ask where he sent the person, although Mrs. Huang Jincheng was curious, she didn't speak, and the person was arranged by Zhao Mo. Qin Han was really curious, and he was more familiar with Zhao Mo, and after getting into the carriage, he hinted to Zhao Mo with squeezing his eyebrows, seeing that Zhao Mo looked funny, he abandoned the horse and got into the carriage to accompany her, so that he had a chance to speak.
Qin Hanzhen asked him: "Cousin Zhao, how do you plan to arrange that Zhang Gongzi?
Zhao Mo smiled: "Well, let's treat him first." His current body is not suitable for long journeys, and if he is not careful, it will not be good if something goes wrong on the road. However, you can ask him to write home first to report his safety. What to do, the Zhang family will come up with a charter. Time waits for no one, and they can't expect their son to return to the capital after his illness is cured, and then start turning against the Wang family. can take advantage of his absence to find a reason to rectify his wife. As for what method to use to rectify it, let the Zhang family go by themselves. I don't have to worry about it for them. ”
Qin Hanzhen pouted: "Needless to say, you must be using Zhang Gongzi to threaten his family." Even if the Zhang family wants to make trouble, they don't want to fight with the Wang family. Zhang Gongzi seems to be the only sister-in-law in their family, doesn't he? Even though Master Zhang has many concerns, Mrs. Zhang loves her son. And to deal with a daughter-in-law, it is enough to have a mother-in-law who can be ruthless. ”
Zhao Mo was a little surprised: "Where did my cousin learn this? I have seen the black smoke and miasma in the Liao Wang's Mansion since I was a child, what do I not know? My cousin has always been deeply loved by my uncle and grandfather, and there is nothing messy in your family, but I didn't expect my cousin to be clear." ”
Qin Hanzhen coughed dryly, and said vaguely: "Our family used to have no concubines, but now my second uncle doesn't have it? Not to mention that Brother Qian'er's biological mother has been doing a lot of drama since she married into our family. I've also seen a lot more, so I won't be stupid. "She can't say it's because she reads too many novels, right?
Zhao Mo didn't ask more, but felt that it was not a bad thing for Qin Han to really know more about the private methods in these mansions. She is now the daughter of the Yongjia Hou Mansion, no longer a small jasper in a small family, living in the Houmen mansion, if you don't understand anything, how can you cope with the calculations of others? Sometimes, even if you don't want to make trouble, trouble will find you. Knowing more things is beneficial and harmless to Qin Hanzhen.
Qin Hanzhen was a little embarrassed. With her age and experience, there are many things that should not be known. But because she was used to being casual in front of Zhao Mo, she often seemed to inadvertently leak a few modern words, and she didn't hide her true nature. Isn't it a bit dangerous to do this? Fortunately, Zhao Mo is still just a child, and he has always been good friends with her, so he didn't ask anything, otherwise she was really worried that she would accidentally get into trouble one day.
Qin Hanzhen coughed twice, lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside, so as to change the topic: "Huh, there seems to be a door over there, although it looks old, but the grass and trees behind the door are flourishing, isn't it a garden?"
Zhao Mo leaned over and took a look: "It really looks like a garden, but it's too shabby, maybe it's a deserted house." ”
He sent someone to inquire, and after a while, he had an answer: "It is a garden built by an official in the previous dynasty, what is it called the East Garden." After the death of the official, the garden was gradually deserted, and now no one is in it, and the door is closed for many years. ”
I see, then there is not much to visit.
Zhao Mo looked at Qin Hanzhen with a smile: "There are still many good gardens here in Suzhou, if my cousin is interested, let's find a few more to go another day?"
Qin Han was really a little distracted, and when he heard him say this, he quickly came back to his senses: "Don't be too troublesome." Let's see what my grandfather has to say. Cousin Zhao, don't you still have something to do?"
Zhao Mo smiled: "What's that? It's just a matter of commanding a few words." ”
He didn't continue, and Qin Hanzhen also continued to walk. She remembered that the location of the garden was very familiar, especially the distance from the Xiyuan Temple...... She remembers that when she first came to Suzhou for a tour, the Lingering Garden was one of the attractions, but because of time, she passed by Xiyuan Temple. Now she has finally been to Xiyuan Temple, but she almost didn't recognize the Lingering Garden!
Did the Lingering Garden ever be abandoned to this point? Most of the pavilions and pavilions she had seen probably didn't exist anymore? Thinking of this, she felt quite a pity in her heart.
A few days ago, she followed her grandfather Qin Bai to the Lion Forest, and the garden was very well maintained, and there was no sign of abandonment, but it was just a little different from the Lion Forest in her impression. She also inquired about the Master of Nets Garden, but it has long been abandoned, and now it has become a million-dollar warehouse, where is there still half a cent of the famous garden?
Qin Han sighed in his heart, only to feel that time was really wonderful.
Back at the inn, she took out her sketch and put it away, and didn't take it to her grandfather to see, after thinking about it, she found a few thin pens, spread out the drawing paper, recalled the Lingering Garden in her memory, and slowly sketched those pavilions, rockeries, lakes and stones that vaguely remembered the appearance. The memory is already very vague, but thanks to the blessing that she has visited a lot of Suzhou gardens in a few days, she stumbled and drew several sketches, at first glance, I feel that the difference with the memory is not very big, and then slowly revise it, and then put it aside with satisfaction.
Then she began to paint the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Master of Nets Garden again. She has a deeper memory of these two famous gardens, especially the Humble Administrator's Garden, which is so famous, she has not seen its postcards, albums, magazine photos, and TV documentaries since she was a child, and she also knows which of its gardens is the most beautiful, and what season is the most suitable for viewing, especially the Xiaofeihong Covered Bridge, which is simply clearer than seeing the real thing on the spot. After she finished painting the spring scene, she painted the autumn scene, thinking that the winter scene was less painted, and it would snow another day, so she had to observe the snow scene carefully, otherwise she would not know how to write after lifting the pen.
Qin Hanzhen's painting was painted again until it was almost dark. Zhao Mo came over: "What is my cousin busy in the house? Uncle and grandpa are back." He seems to have found a good old painting today, and he is even happier. Cousin should go over and take a look, and it will be time to eat in a while. ”
Qin Hanzhen agreed, and went to wash the pen. Zhao Mo looked at the drawings she painted, and was a little curious: "Where is this garden? Why don't I remember when I went there?" Except for a few small scenes in the Humble Administrator's Garden, he really didn't recognize the other places.
Qin Hanzhen snorted, put away the painting, and pulled him out: "It's just a few strokes, it's not a famous garden." I'm hungry, so let's get ahead. ”
Zhao Mo couldn't help but pull herself out, but she couldn't help but turn around and take a look at the sketch on the bookcase.
