Chapter 1298: Wealth
When I wake up in the morning, it's too hot. As soon as the sun came out, the earth was filled with fire.
Meilan took Jingbai and the two of them each held a small box of yellow rosewood. This box has a large mouth and a small bottom, in the shape of a square bucket, with two turns of copper hoops on the waist, and two copper rings on both sides of the box. The opening of the box is composed of two wooden board covers, and the wooden boards are carved with many small hollow holes in the shape of money.
Open the box and pour ice cubes into the box. Then put the box on the table, and bursts of white air came out of the small holes, blowing on the body was particularly cool.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Go and hold a watermelon and put it in it." ”
Meilan looked at the box, shook her head and said, "Princess, this box can barely hold a small watermelon!" The people below all picked up the best melons and sent them, and they couldn't find a watermelon weighing two or three catties.
Yuxi said with a smile: "The brain really doesn't turn. You won't cut the watermelon into small pieces and put it in?"
Meilan smiled and said, "Okay!"
There were several copper basins in the corners of the room, and they were filled with ice. As soon as the minister came to pay tribute, he felt that it had moved from summer to spring, and it was too cool to be cool.
When Jiang Hongfu entered the study, his forehead was full of beads of sweat, and the back of his clothes was all soaked. I shivered when I entered the house, and then quickly took out my handkerchief to wipe my sweat.
Holding the fold, Jiang Hongfu said: "The princess ......"
Yuxi waved his hand and said, "Take a rest first, eat two melons to get hot." "Sweaty, she looks hot!
After talking, Yuxi asked, "When will your wife and Brother Jun arrive?" Yunqing has been talking about this, and Yuxi naturally has to pay attention to it.
Jiang Hongfu explained: "It's too hot now, and the health of their mother and son is not very good, and they can't go on the road until the end of September." He didn't expect that Yuxi would also care about this.
Hearing this, Yuxi felt that Yunqing had some difficulties with strong people before: "Since your health is not good, it is better to stay in Jiangnan, so don't let them run around." On the prince's side, I'll go and tell him. "The road from Jiangnan to Ho City for thousands of miles, like Brother You'er's strong body, it's fine, but it's torture for people who are not in good health.
Jiang Hongfu said: "After so many years of separation, even if the prince doesn't say it, I will take their mother and son over." "The bandits in Fujian are more serious, and the Qiu family has their own thoughts, so he didn't dare to take his wife and children over because he was worried that something would happen.
Yuxi asked, "Will Yijun take the test next year, will Yijun end up?" Ordinary people will get sick after the test, and Jiang Yijun's body will die if he participates in the test.
Jiang Hongfu shook his head without thinking about it: "The exam is already a physical job, and his body can't stand it." "Although there are some regrets, I can't let my son even lose his life for the sake of fame.
After inspecting Xiayi, Yunqing was ready to go back. Qi Hao had other ideas: "Dad, as the saying goes, there is heaven and Suzhou and Hangzhou, since I don't go to Jinling to see it here, it's a pity." "Xiayi belongs to Suzhou.
As long as it is not an excessive request, Yunqing will not object: "Yes." If you don't go to Jinling, you can't stay too long. Otherwise, your mother should be angry. "I have to go home half a month late after making such a bend.
"I will write to my mother to explain the situation, and I believe that my mother will not be angry. "If he went to Jinling Yuxi alone, he would definitely be unhappy, but it would be different with Yunqing by his side.
It was also a coincidence that Qiyou arrived in Jinling one day before Yunqing and Qihao. He walked around the area and bought quite a few things. As soon as I entered the gate of Hanfu, I felt that the atmosphere was different. There used to be two guards at the gate, but now there are two rows of guards.
Qiyou asked, "What's going on in the house?"
The porter hurriedly trotted out and said, "Back to Your Royal Highness, it was the prince and the prince who came, and they arrived half an hour ago." ”
"What? My dad is here with my eldest brother?" After speaking, he threw a camphor wooden box in his hand to Brother Hua'er, and ran inside.
Brother Hua shouted loudly: "Don't run around, first ask where the prince and the prince are now?" Without a clear location, running back and forth is a complete waste of time.
Qiyou didn't think about it and said, "It's definitely in my yard." Then he went to his courtyard.
As Qiyou expected, Yunqing and Qihao were really in his yard. At this time, the two happened to take a shower and were about to go to see Qiu.
"Dad, big brother, why are you here?" Because Brother Hao came to Jinling temporarily, he didn't tell Brother You.
Qi Hao said with a smile: "There are so many delicious and fun things in Jinling City, what a pity not to come!" Although Yuxi said that he would let him come to Jiangnan in the future, who knows what year and month he will have to wait!
Qi Youle said hehehe: "Big brother, I know what is delicious in Jinling, and I will take you there tomorrow." He didn't believe that Qi Hao came to Jiangnan just to eat, drink and have fun, but Qi Hao didn't say that he didn't ask.
After saying a few words, the Han brothers followed Yunqing to see the Qiu family.
When I arrived in the backyard, I bypassed the rich peony interstitial screen in front of the door, walked through the hall, and came to the upper courtyard where the Qiu family lived. Five main rooms, carved beams and painted phoenix eyes carved corners, on both sides of the verandah wings, there are two birds hanging in the corridor. The chirp is crisp and beautiful.
Looking at the two birds, Qiyou explained, "Big brother, this is the oriole bird, which is my grandmother's favorite. ”
Qi Hao smiled and said: "The sound of this bird is good, listening to it more is good for the body and mind." ”
At this time, a delicate voice sounded: "Old lady, the prince and the prince are here." Soon, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the room. Soon, Qiu came out with a handful of maids.
Seeing Yunqing and Qihao, Qiu knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose ......"
Yun Qing was a little stunned by this posture, but he quickly came back to his senses, and quickly stepped forward to help Qiu Shi, who was kneeling on the ground, up: "Isn't my mother-in-law breaking my life by doing this?" Let the elders of the family kneel, isn't it just a life.
The Qiu clan will kneel, and they also remember what Han Jianming said about Yunqing being a monarch and a minister.
Qi Hao also stepped forward to help Qiu's family, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, a family, don't talk about these false courtesies." ”
Xiang, who was kneeling on the ground, was secretly frightened when he heard this. Compared with King Ming, King Ming has more of a king's bearing.
Yun Qing and Qi Hao helped the Qiu family into the house, and when they walked into the house, they saw an arhat couch with walnut wood inlaid with luodian stone in front of the house.
Qi Hao helped Qiu to sit next to the Luohan couch. After Qiu sat down, he took Qihao's hand, and said with a smile to Xiang, who followed into the house, "This is your eldest aunt." ”
Qi Hao smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt are fine." ”
Xiang hurriedly greeted Yunqing and Qihao. This time, Yunqing didn't stop it anymore.
Qiu Shi smiled and asked, "Why did you come to Jinling this time?" Qiu Shi knew that a person like Yunqing was so busy, if he had nothing to do, he would not come to Jinling.
Yunqing said: "Yuxi has been worried about your body, this time I took Qihao to inspect various military camps, I happened to go to Xiayi a few days ago, and I took Qihao to see you when I was done." "If it's nice, Yunqing will say it too.
This greatly pleased Qiu's: "I told her that I mentioned it very well, and I'm still worried there!" After speaking, Qiu's said again: "Yuxi is still the same as before, is he so busy all day that his feet don't touch the ground?"
Qiyou Ke seized the opportunity to sue: "Grandmother, don't you know your mother's temperament? On weekdays, my second sister and I want to talk to my mother, but she doesn't have time. ”
Qiu Shi sighed and said, "This kid is really, there is no distinction between light and heavy. In Qiu's mind, nature is the most important thing for children.
Hearing this, Yunqing hurriedly spoke for Yuxi: "Mother-in-law, don't listen to the child's nonsense. Although Yuxi was a little busy, he never neglected a few children. "Several children were raised by Yuxi, and they were all taught very well.
When Xiang heard this, he secretly said in his heart, it all shows that the king favors his wife as his life, and it seems that this rumor is true.
Qi Hao also smiled and said: "Ayou is joking, grandmother, don't listen to Qiyou's nonsense." After speaking, Qi Hao glanced at Qi You, with a warning in his eyes.
Qiyou was not afraid, and said with a smile: "I just feel sorry for my mother, I'm afraid that she will work too hard and tired." ”
That's a beautiful thing to say.
After hearing this, Qiu's eyebrows opened and smiled: "Ayou is really a good boy who is filial. "When I get old, I like filial piety and caring children.
After a conversation, it was time for lunch.
When I walked into the dining room, I saw a mahogany round table with eight mahogany chairs around it. In the four corners of the room were gilded beast basins, filled with ice.
The meals were sumptuous, and everything was complete in the water that flew in the sky and on the ground. These dishes are served in Ru kiln porcelain plates, and these porcelain exude a smooth and bright luster, which makes people can't help but have an appetite when they look at it.
The bowl for eating is a blue and white porcelain bowl with ivory chopsticks next to it. Not to mention the food on the table, the tableware on this table alone is worth thousands of taels of silver.
Qiu Shi sat on the top and said with a smile: "I didn't know you would come, the kitchen didn't buy in advance and made a few dishes casually, don't dislike it." ”
casually made such a large table of sumptuous dishes, which shows that the kitchen has stored a lot of good things.
Qiyou smiled and said, "Where will you dislike it." We only cook a big table of dishes during the New Year's holidays, and we have eight dishes and one soup on weekdays. ”
When Han Jianming heard this, he hurriedly looked at Yunqing, and saw that he was not dissatisfied with the smile on his face, so his heart relaxed slightly.
Hearing this, the Qiu clan frowned and said to Yunqing: "No matter how frugal you are, you can't lose your children. ”
Qiyou hurriedly explained: "Grandmother, my mother didn't lose us, so I don't think we can waste it. In fact, eight dishes and one soup are enough for us to eat. "It's just that the dishes you like to eat can't be eaten every few days and can't be eaten every day, Qiyou is very resentful of this, of course, he won't say these words in front of the Han family.
Yunqing also felt that Qiyou talked a lot, and said: "What did your mother say at home, you don't say anything about food, you don't sleep, and you forget all about how long you have been out." ”
Qiyou's neck shrunk and he didn't say anything more.
After lunch, Yun Qing said a few words to the Qiu family, and took the two Qihao brothers back to the courtyard to rest.
Entering the house, Qi Hao said with a smile: "Ayou, I didn't know that you had so many complaints about your mother, and when I go back, I will tell my mother about these things." ”
Qiyou hurriedly said: "Don't wronged me, I don't have any complaints about my mother." ”
Brother for so many years, Qi Hao didn't know Qi You's thoughts. Qiyou deliberately provoked these topics, wanting his father to notice the wealth of the Han family, but unfortunately his father was too sincere and didn't hear it, wasting Brother You'er's thoughts.
There are mosquitoes in the summer, and the three brothers Yunqing and Qihao don't like incense, so they all hang tents on their beds.
Qiyou pointed to the blue tent sprinkled with flowers on the bed and said, "Dad, this tent is made of shark silk, this shark yarn is light and breathable, and you don't feel bored at all when you sleep in it." ”
Yun Qing really didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "If you like it, you can use this kind of account when you go back." ”
Qi Hao saw that Qi You was about to speak, so he hurriedly rushed in front of him and said, "Well, when I go back, I will let Mother Qu change all the accounts." After speaking, he glared at Qiyou and warned him not to speak again.
Yunqing has one room, and Qihao and Qiyou brothers have one room. It's not that there is not enough room, but Qihao asks for it.
Waiting for Yunqing to go back to the house to rest, Qiyou opened his mouth and asked, "Big brother, why don't you let me say?" The life of the Han Mansion is better than that of their family, not a little better but a lot better, Qiyou feels that this is not normal. The Han family is so wealthy, Qiyou is worried that Han Jianming will use his power for personal gain.
Qihao said: "I have to go back and tell my mother about this, and I shouldn't tell my father." Otherwise, it will be my mother's face that will be lost. ”
Qiyou didn't understand and asked, "What does this have to do with my mother?"
Qiyou said: "Uncle Nongong, the governor of Jiangnan, was personally appointed by my mother, and Uncle Non Private is my mother's brother. If the uncle really uses his power for personal gain, it will damage his mother's face. ”
Qiyou understood: "You mean that my father didn't understand the meaning of my words, but pretended to be confused?"
Qi Hao said: "I don't know about this. But this matter has to be handled by the mother. That's why he didn't let Keiyou continue.
Qiyou nodded, and then changed the topic: "Big brother, are you and your father going to stay in Jinling for a few days this time?"
"Ten days. After speaking, Qi Hao said with a smile: "Dad doesn't have time to play, so you can take me everywhere when the time comes." By the way, eat those snacks that Keiyou introduced in the letter.
Qiyou smiled and said, "Big brother, my biggest regret is that I can't swim the Qinhuai River at night. Big brother, you tell your father and let him take us to swim down the Qinhuai River. ”
Qi Hao laughed: "Night tour of the Qinhuai River? If you let your mother know, you won't be able to eat and walk around after you go back." "The Qinhuai River at night is a place for men to have fun.
How could Qiyou not know, but he also had his own words: "Dad took us there, my mother won't think much about it." Besides, Dad is not that kind of person. ”
Qi Hao was not interested in traveling to the Qinhuai River at night, but he didn't pour cold water on Qi You: "Ask your father when the time comes, see what your father means!"
Qiyou smiled and said, "Big brother, then you should rest quickly, and when you are well rested, we will go out to play." There are a lot of fun things to do in Jinling City. ”
Qi Hao nodded and went to bed.
