Chapter 317: Gift
Jiang Xian arranged the singing here, and began to care about tea, wine and candy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, the affairs of the back house were straightened out, she used Chongdian again, the house gradually became quieter, and Li Tai was a capable person, so these things were quickly resolved.
Jiang Xian began to look for a place to feast.
The weather in July is very hot, and it is best to find a water pavilion, as the wind blows from the lake, and the heat is half lighter. It's a pity that the Li family is only so big, and there are three ponds in the whole house, one in the east courtyard, one in the west courtyard, and one in the small courtyard where Gao Fuyu lives.
After thinking about it, she decided to set the place for the banquet at Mrs. He's in the East Cross Courtyard.
Baijie smiled: "Do you want to go over and have a look?"
Because the place is small, it is best to listen to the opera in the place where the banquet is held, whether to find a place to sing or set up a stage, you really have to have experienced people to take a look, otherwise you can't hear it from afar, and it's too noisy when it's close.
Jiang Xian held an umbrella to cover the sun and went to Mrs. He's house.
On the way, they passed by the corner gate.
Not far away, the doors and windows of a side room were wide open, and more than a dozen young maids were writing something on the desk, and there was no sound around, only bursts of cicadas were heard, and several little maids were so hot that their foreheads and noses were full of sweat.
Jiang Xian paused.
Baijie said in a low voice: "It's a few little maids who learn to write with their lovers, and they learn to read here when they are not on duty." ”
"How many?" Jiang Xian glanced at the wing.
Bai Jie hurriedly said: "County Lord, there were really only a few at first, but later everyone saw that the lover's sister was sincerely teaching them, and the people serving around you also knew a few words, so they all had the courage to ask for it." The lover's sister said that teaching one is also teaching, and teaching two is also teaching, so she accepted everyone. Because they only came here when they were free, they only taught for a few days, and I didn't know if they could persevere, so the lover sister said, I'll tell you in two days. ”
"That's good!" Jiang Xian doesn't like to manage the affairs of the house, so he likes to be able to make his own ideas without hurting the courtier, "People are good from books." You have taught these people so vividly, and you don't have to go through so much trouble to explain what is going on in the house in the future. ”
The two talked and walked and went to the East Cross Courtyard.
Mrs. He was not in the house, saying that she had gone to the winter solstice.
Jiang Xian thought that with such a big sun, he had come all by himself, could he still return empty-handed?
She simply asked the little maid to lead the way and went to Li Dongzhi.
Li Dongzhi also had the window lattice wide open, and the two little maids stood in the shade under the verandah, leaning against the thick red lacquered pillars and napping.
Jiang Xian looked at it and nodded slightly.
Before the housekeeping is rectified, let alone such a hot day, that is, when the cool breeze is blowing in early summer, those little maids on duty will find an excuse to go back to their own houses to rest.
She and Baijie ascended the stairs.
Good etiquette made the silent steps hanging from her waist not even make a crashing sound.
The two little maids who didn't dare to sleep to death suddenly woke up.
"County, county lord......" Seeing Jiang Xian, the two of them were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
Jiang Xian glanced at the two little maids, and ordered Baijie: "This matter is handed over to you!" and then entered the house.
In the house, Li Dongzhi and He Tongniang sat on the Luohan bed in the banquet room and wrote, seven or eight little maids were fanning around them, and there was an iceberg piled up in a corner of the room, revealing a trace of coolness. And Mrs. He and Mrs. Uncle He sat by the iceberg smiling and shaking their fans, Gao Miaorong was wearing a pink silk yarn shirt, standing beside Luohan's bed without sweating, watching Li Dongzhi and He Tongniang write.
Hearing the movement, everyone in the room raised their heads with surprised expressions.
Jiang Xian was also a little surprised.
She didn't expect that it was so hot, Li Dongzhi and He Tongniang were still practicing calligraphy.
It was Uncle He's wife who was the first to react.
"The county lord is here!" she got up and walked over to Jiang Xian with a smile and said, "It's too hot this day, and we can't sit still in the house." However, we only returned to Taiyuan in March this year, and we were unable to set ice in advance to the ice storehouse, so there is not much ice in the house now. Knowing that they had to practice calligraphy on the winter solstice, they would pile up a few pieces of ice and put them in the corner every afternoon, so we came over. I thought I could save a few ice ...... for the house."
That's true.
Jiang Xian pursed his lips and smiled.
Two little girls hurriedly got off the Luohan bed and saluted Jiang Xian, one shouting "sister-in-law" and the other shouting "cousin-in-law".
Mrs. He hurriedly instructed Xiao Sui to bring Jiang Xian an embroidery pier over: "Put it on the side of the Arhat bed, so as not to be cold." This one is cold and one is hot, and it is most likely to get sick. ”
Jiang Xian accepted Mrs. He's kindness with a smile, stood beside Luohan's bed, and casually asked Li Dongzhi and He Tongyan about their homework.
Li Dongzhi said respectfully: "Sister Gao said that the weather is too hot these days, and it is easy to get upset and irritable, so stop your homework first, and practice the words for two hours every afternoon to calm down and nourish your qi." Wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, and then teach new lessons. ”
He Tongniang muttered: "I, I just finished reading the Book of Filial Piety. When I was idle, I accompanied my cousin to practice calligraphy. ”
Jiang Xian focused on He Tongniang's words.
Linmo is Mrs. Wei's hairpin, which has some skills.
She couldn't help laughing and said, "My cousin writes better than me!"
"Where, where!" He Tongniang whispered, wanting to be modest, but she didn't know where to start, standing there a little helpless.
Uncle He's wife hated that her daughter couldn't get on the stage, and she couldn't reprimand her daughter in front of Jiang Xian, so she was very anxious.
Who knew that Jiang Xian smiled: "I'm telling the truth." If you don't believe me, I'll write you a few words one day and you'll know. However, since you are Xi's Mrs. Wei, you must also like Zhong Xuan, I happen to have a painting of the former great calligrapher Wang Zhen when he was young, and I will send it to you. You'll remember to ask the maid to pick it up from me. ”
"Force Table" is Zhong Xuan's representative work, the real work has long been unknown where it went, and Wang Zhen is also one of the best calligraphers in the previous dynasty, his true handwriting is also a word of gold, although his Linmo's "Force Table" is not as good as Zhong Xuan, it is also a treasure that can not be found.
He Tongniang was stunned.
Gao Miaorong's expression froze, and then a little gloom flashed in her eyes.
Wang Zhen Linmo's "Force Table", Jiang Xian gave it to He Tongniang in this way.
It's like giving Chinese cabbage.
Does Jiang Xian know how precious that handwriting is?
Gao Miaorong held her breath in her chest, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.
And He Tongniang has come back to his senses.
She waved her hand again and again: "Cousin-in-law, no, no, it's too valuable, I can't accept it!"
Jiang Xian said with a smile: "The red pink is given to the beauty, and the cousin happens to like it, so it couldn't be better." As for whether it is precious or not, it also varies from person to person. Like me, I like to walk more grass than Xiaokai, and the "Force Table" is placed here for me, but it is just pressed at the bottom of the box every June 6 to take out the sun and blow the wind. It's better to give it to your cousin. ”
But it's too expensive!
He Tongniang still wanted to refuse, but Uncle He's wife smiled and said, "Since it was given by your cousin-in-law, you can just accept it." Didn't your cousin-in-law say that she likes to walk grass, and if you encounter a good sticker in the future, remember to buy it and give it to your cousin-in-law. Your own family, you don't have to be so polite. ”
