The Qin family and his party hurried unhurriedly on the road, walking one hundred and eighty miles every day, but it was not very hard. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

They are now getting closer and closer to the capital, and almost all the places they pass by every day are bustling places. When the weather was fine, they were also a little relaxed, slowed down and slowly enjoyed the scenery along the way. If you pass by a busy town, you will also buy some interesting souvenirs. Qin Bai and Wu Shaoying and others can use these things as souvenirs, which can be used when visiting old friends; Niu's is nostalgic with Mama Hu from the past when they passed through here when they came to the northwest; and Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo are completely interesting and lively.

Qin Han really returned to his childhood, and his heart became much more naïve. Zhao Mo was originally a child, and since he found out that the Wen family and the Wang family were colluding, he has been in a state of nervous tension, and now he finally has a chance to relax, and he has returned to his nature slightly.

However, Qin Bai just wanted his family to relax a little, and he didn't plan to really delay the trip, and when the big town passed, their travel speed would return to normal. The Golden Elephant sent people to hurry back to the Marquis Mansion in the capital to report the news, so that everyone in the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion could prepare in advance to meet the third room.

And so it was, and so it was, and so it was. The people of the Qin family finally entered the boundary of the capital. It's bustling here, but it's even more so than anywhere else. It's just that they have only entered the range of Shuntianfu, and they have not really entered the capital yet. Qin Bai and the others are okay, they have seen it a long time ago; Qin Hanzhen has lived in a more prosperous international metropolis, and he doesn't feel anything about it, but he just feels fresh; and the rest of the people who have never been to the capital have become dirt buns.

When they arrived in Datong in the past, they felt that Datong was more prosperous than Suidezhou City, and they already felt that it was an eye-opener; now when they arrived at the boundary of the capital, they felt that this place was even more prosperous than Datong, and they only felt dizzying; they heard that this was not the capital, and the capital was more prosperous and lively than here, and everyone thought it was a fantasy, but they didn't dare to believe it.

Because they got along for a few months, they became familiar with Wu Shaoying and everyone in the Chengenhou Mansion, so they asked privately. Wu Shaoying's master and servant smiled kindly and explained to them, and everyone in the Hou Mansion agreed in their mouths, but they couldn't help but feel a little proud in their hearts, and secretly despised the soil buns in these three rooms, which were really from the poor countryside, and they didn't know anything.

Qin Hanzhen sensed this meaning on Chunhong's face. In contrast, Xia Qing was much calmer, and she had been talking to Qingxing gently and gently, teaching her some rules and etiquette that Houmen Yahuan needed to learn. Qing Xing also listened very attentively, although she was once very interested in the prosperous scenery outside the window, but she knew in her heart that what Xia Qing taught was more important, so she only remembered Xia Qing's teachings with her heart.

Seeing this, Chunhong felt a little bored, and joked in her heart that this Qingxing was a nerd, but she couldn't help but show off again: "Qingxing, you have learned those rules for a few days, even if you are stupid, you should remember it." If you have time, you might as well take a look at the bustle outside. Our capital can't be compared with those small rural places. If you miss such an eye-opening opportunity, you don't know when you will be able to do it again. ”

Xia Qing couldn't help but say to her: "Sister Chunhong, I'm teaching Qingxing, why are you bothering us?"

Chunhong pouted: "I'm just doing it for her good." When she returned to the Hou Mansion, it would be difficult for her to come up with it again. If she doesn't take advantage of this time to open her eyes, she still doesn't know how many benefits the capital has, it is not comparable to the small place she has been in before!"

Qingxing couldn't help but say: "Who said that all the places I have stayed in are small? ”

Chunhong didn't believe it: "How is it possible? You little girl, when have you ever been here? Don't lie, right?"

Qingxing bit her lip: "It's a puppy to lie! I really came here when I was a child, and I lived here for a while!" said with a gloomy face, "but then moved away......"

Chunhong sneered: "Do you think I will believe it? If you say that you came with Uncle Wu, how much more can I believe it." But you actually said that you lived in the capital for a few years when you were a child? Hmph, if I ask you about things in Beijing, do you want to prevaricate me with the reason that I don't remember when I was young?"

Qingxing was speechless, biting her lip and not speaking.

Qin Hanzhen opened his mouth and said: "Okay, what's so noisy about this? Who wants to look at the scenery outside, who looks at it, can't you not look at it if you don't want to? The capital is very prosperous, but this is just a suburb of Beijing, so there is no need to make such a fuss." We will stay in the capital for a while in the future, and some of them will have the opportunity to go out shopping, and then we can take our time to see it. Chunhong, you can only occasionally go out of the gate of the Chengenhou Mansion and see the street outside. In terms of knowledge, you may not be as good as Qingxing, what is there to be proud of? It is true that we are from a small place in the northwest, but if you want to look down on people, it is not your turn!"

Chunhong said curtly: "The third girl is serious, I didn't mean that." ”

That's what I heard. Qin Hanzhen said coldly, "If you don't want to be misunderstood, you can shut up for me." We're about to separate, and I don't want everyone to be too embarrassed, and it will be embarrassing to meet again in the future. ”

Chunhong's face changed greatly when she heard this, but she didn't dare to speak again. Xia Qing's eyes flashed, but he didn't know, and continued to talk to Qing Xing in a low voice.

The suburbs of Beijing are large, they can't finish the road in one day, and when it is about to get dark, they still stop, spend the night in Wanping County, and then go to the capital again the next day. Because he was going to enter the city today, in order to keep it secret, Qin Bai redistributed today's carriage before he set off. Qin Hanzhen followed Qin Bai, Niu's and Mama Hu in a car, and Uncle Hu rode a horse to escort him; Zhao Mo and Wu Shaoying sat in a car, driven by Hu Yong himself, and followed by Wu Shaoying's henchmen; Brother Zi'er sat in a car with his nurse and Xia He, and the rest remained unchanged.

This is to prevent everyone from getting off in front of the Cheng'en Hou Mansion after entering the city, if Zhao Mo is in the three-room car, it is very likely that he will be noticed by the people of the Hou Mansion. But if he just followed behind, when Wu Shaoying got out of the car, no one would pay much attention, he could directly follow the other entourages to the future residence of the third room, and he didn't have to meet all the owners of the Chengenhou Mansion. When Qin Bai explained the matter to Cheng Enhou and his wife, it would not be too late for him to go to the ceremony again, maybe he would directly save this step, but it is unknown.

Zhao Mo knew that Qin Bai arranged this way for the sake of his own safety, so he stayed with Wu Shaoying very honestly. Wu Shaoying is also a good talker, knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Talking to him, Zhao Mo felt that he could learn a lot.

But Qin Hanzhen felt a little bored without Zhao Mo's little friend, so he had to look at the scenery outside the window, chat with Qin Bai and Niu, ask about the customs of the capital and so on. Suddenly, I saw a lot of willows planted on the side of the road outside the window, and now it is late spring in March, but it is the season when catkins are flying all over the sky. Qin Hanzhen was accidental, and a small ball of catkins flew into the car, and gently slid on her little nose, and she sneezed.

Mama Tiger laughed and helped Qin Hanzhen put down the curtain of the car: "Sister, be careful, this catkins are flying around, if you inhale it into your nose, your sister's throat should be uncomfortable." ”

Qin Hanzhen sniffed and said puzzledly: "Why are there so many willows planted on the side of this road? Isn't this harmful? In spring, the sky is full of catkins, how can people walk?"

Qin Bai said with a smile: "There has always been a custom of planting willows on the side of the road in the suburbs of Beijing. Only because of this place is near the Ten Mile Pavilion, ordinary people say goodbye to relatives and friends, mostly in the Ten Mile Pavilion. Plant willows on the side of the road, and you can fold willows to see them off. This is the legacy of the ancients. ”

Qin Hanzhen said with a smile: "This is not Chang'an City, there is no Baqiao, do you want to come out of the Baqiao to break the willows?"

Niu Shi was puzzled: "What is Baqiao?"

Qin Hanzhen suddenly realized that he had lost his words, at Sister Sang'er's age, she had symptoms of "amnesia", and there was no reason to know this kind of allusion. She hurriedly smiled to cover up: "This is what my grandfather said before, right? There is a bridge outside Chang'an City, which is mentioned in many poems." ”

Qin Bai didn't remember when he said it, but he talked about poetry with Wu Shaoying a lot, and occasionally taught Zhao Mo some knowledge, maybe when he mentioned it casually, so that the little granddaughter on the side heard it, and didn't take it to heart: "It is a bridge on the Bahe River outside Xi'an City, where the ancients often bid farewell to relatives and friends who left Xi'an City, and broke off the willow branches to give away, taking the word 'willow' and the word 'stay' homonym, which means to stay." Over time, there is an allusion to 'Baqiao Folding Willows'. ”

Niu suddenly realized and said with a smile: "This idea is not bad, our family will return to rice fat in the future, and we will plant a willow tree at the gate." When Brother Ping and Brother An are about to leave home, they will break a branch and take them away. When they see the willow branch, they think of home. Speaking of this, she began to miss her youngest son, who had only been separated for a few days, and the eldest son who had been separated for more than a year and almost thought she had lost.

Qin Bai comforted his wife: "I will be able to see Brother Ping in a while, why be sad?"

Qin Hanzhen also followed and coaxed the Niu family: "Grandmother, don't be sad." I have heard that this willow tree has many other benefits, that the willow branches can be used to make baskets, and that the willow leaves can be used to play tunes. Why don't I blow it to you?" she really learned this.

Niu Shi became interested when he heard this, and remembered that he would be able to see his son soon, so he was no longer sad, and only smiled: "Don't coax me, you girl." When will you play the willow leaves? If you want to listen to the tune, ask your grandfather to play it. She looked at Qin Bai with a smile, "Didn't you play it to me when you entered Beijing that year? I was very sad at that time, and I won't be sad when I listen to your flute." ”

Qin Bai coughed twice, and his old face was slightly red: "Where can I find a flute at this time? When I am free, I will find a good flute and blow it to you." ”

Niu pursed his lips and smiled: "I'll listen, don't forget." ”

Qin Hanzhen blinked, pretending not to see their husband and wife looking at each other, only turned his head to lift the curtain, and caught a glimpse of the willows on the side of the road, the willow branches brushed the body, making the sound of brushing, and quickly dragged a willow branch down, held it in his hand, picked another leaf, tried to blow a few times, and found that his technique had not regressed, and he was overjoyed, so he blew "Farewell" intermittently. It's a pity that she is not proficient, and she can't make a tune, and she can only vaguely hear a few beautiful melodies.

Niu Shi hurriedly asked, "What kind of song is this? When did Sister Sang learn such skills?" Qin Bai was also quite surprised.

Qin Hanzhen stopped playing and said with a dry smile: "This is what I learned from someone in the village before, and I don't remember who taught it." I just blew it casually, and I didn't have any tunes. ”

Qin Bai said with a smile: "It's a little interesting, blowing willow leaves at this time is very appropriate." ”

Qin Hanzhen continued to blow again, and slowly, he became proficient. The song was melodious, fluttering in the wind, and reached the ears of Zhao Mo, who was sitting in the carriage behind, he closed his eyes, felt the light breeze blowing outside the window, and only felt that his heart was calm. Although he was about to arrive in the capital, he would soon begin to face the trials of all sides, but strangely, when the time came, he was no longer afraid.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves sounded at the intersection ahead. Uncle Hu looked at it and suddenly rejoiced: "Master, Mrs., it's the uncle who is here! The uncle is here to welcome us!" )
