Chapter 262: Inky Light
People are in good spirits when they are happy, and this sentence is confirmed by Luo Shao. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Today's officials are in turmoil, and even Zhuang Yuan, who is the head of the cabinet, can't sleep, who knows who Liang Fen's lost dog will bite?
As we all know, whether it is routine questioning or torture, the place where Jinyiwei interrogates officials is in prison.
Most people don't know where the edict is, but those who have been to the edict know that it is underground, in the dark.
Since Liang Fen was arrested, some people in the Ministry of Officials were taken away by Jinyiwei's people for three days, some were released after a day or two, and some people were gone forever.
But anyone who was called to the ministry for questioning would be in a trance even after he came back.
However, only Luo Shao is excepted.
Luo Shao came back on the day he was arrested, he had a shallow foundation in the Ministry of Officials, he didn't know much about Liang Fen, and it was expected that he would be released.
But he went to the government the day after he returned, and he was in good spirits, and he walked with the wind.
Xiao Langzhong, who had always been good friends with him, frowned when he saw it, and asked him quietly: "You tell me the truth, you went to the edict yesterday, and you look like you just ate ginseng fruit." ”
Luo Shao was more comfortable than eating ginseng fruit.
Zhang is pregnant.
If it weren't for the pity of the little girl who still didn't leave the cabinet, he would have told his daughter the good news yesterday.
It's a pity that he wants a little brother, and he also donates incense money in Qixia Temple and Guangji Temple without telling him, and asks the Bodhisattva to bless him to be able to spread the branches and leaves, and the children and grandchildren are full.
It's a hard thing to keep the good news from it.
But the pride and satisfaction in his heart made him not feel uncomfortable.
After getting off the Ya, he personally went to Rongfutang, the largest time-honored brand in the capital, to order a supplement of 1,000 taels of silver for Zhang's family, and when he returned home, he plunged into the warehouse, found a glass paperweight and two good inkstones that had just been picked up not long ago, and felt that something was still missing, so he thought about it and asked Luo Jinyan to call Luo Jinyan to the study.
"Daddy asked you to make a few ingots of good ink for the jade medal early in the morning, can you make it?"
Luo Jinyan had already put this matter behind him, and when he heard his father ask, he blinked his eyes wide, looking like I didn't mean to forget.
Luo Shao shook his head helplessly, urging her: "Don't always play with Tangyuan Ear these days, take the time to make ink for Yuzhang, he will be finished." ”
Luo Jinyan agreed, but at a glance, he saw the glazed paperweight.
The paperweight is transparent, and when viewed from the outside, there are two small fish floating on the surface of the water, and when you pick it up and shake it, the small fish swim happily.
"Daddy, you don't want to give me such a good thing?" She grumbled as she made a gesture to take the paperweight away.
When Luo Shao saw it, he hurriedly smiled and coaxed her: "Baby daughter, Daddy rewarded Yuzhang with a paperweight, after you get married, you just need to ask him to come over." ”
Luo Jinyan looked at him aggrievedly, Daddy, you are really getting more and more stingy, one thing for two people.
Luo Shao had no choice but to smile and said: "This paperweight has the meaning of a fish leaping over the dragon gate, it is the most suitable to give it to Yuzhang, don't worry, Daddy will find another one to give to you, and make a pair for you, this is always okay, right?" ”
What a pair!
Luo Jinyan pouted, took a piece of Qingtian light from his father's study, and then left happily, walked to the door, and was stopped by Luo Shao: "Go back and make ink for Yuzhang, don't delay." ”
Back in the West Cross Courtyard, Luo Jinyan leaned on the big pillow and played with the Qingtian light.
Xia Zhi frowned when he saw it, making ink is not a simple matter, the young lady is still not moving, and there will be no ink ingots to give to Qin Gongzi at that time, the master must be very unhappy.
"Miss, I've followed you to make ink, why don't you write a list and I'll go and purchase the ingredients?"
Luo Jinyan reluctantly sat down at the kang table, listed the things to be used to make ink, asked Xia Solstice to prepare, and called Xiao Han and Xiao Xue, who had followed her before to make ink.
She was too lazy to do it herself, but fortunately, over the years, the maids around her have all been trained by her to be ingenious.
The next day, all the things needed to make ink were ready, and she took Xiaoxue and Xiaohan and the other two little girls to start making ink.
In this life, she was only eight years old when she made ink for her father's birthday, Luo Shao was amazed, really thought that her daughter was based on the recipe in the ancient book, let Mr. Chen point out, but she didn't know that in her previous life, she had learned ink making with a famous teacher.
Ink making pays attention to 100,000 pestles, although it is not necessarily necessary to hammer 100,000 times, but 50,000 or 60,000 times must always have it, not to mention that she wants to make ink well, it must be more refined.
In the evening, she was also a little tired, standing under the north window and looking out, but saw Xiaohe's first exposed door curtain raised, and a woman walked out of the back room.
With a tall figure and a flower-like delicate face, this is Qixia.
Qixia also saw Luo Jinyan, and she bowed her knees from afar.
Since Qixia lived here, Luo Jinyan has never seen her again, and she also lives in a shallow way, usually only copying scriptures in the house, and even the maids in the yard rarely see her.
Luo Jinyan left the window and changed his clothes to greet his father and Zhang.
Zhang's was hurting, and before dinner, there was a bunch of preserved plums and apricots on the kang table, and when he saw Luo Jinyan coming, he asked Qingluo to pack a big box and handed it to Yushui, and said: "This is just bought from Babaozhai today, I taste it, you take some back to eat." ”
After speaking, he said a little bit of a mouthful: "I have a little bit of food, so I let Chang Gui go to buy some." ”
But his face turned red.
Luo Jinyan looked interesting, pretended not to know anything, and went back with a bunch of snacks happily.
She originally liked to eat some sweet and sour things, but when Xia Zhi saw that his wife had rewarded a bunch of them, she muttered: "Mrs. loves to eat these things, and she is not afraid of eating her teeth badly." ”
When Luo Jinyan heard it, he laughed, glanced at the window in the north, and said to Xia Zhi: "Decorate everything, send it to Qixia, and say that her scriptures are copied well, and I will reward her." ”
Xia Zhi had already guessed that Qixia had some origins, she had been with Luo Jinyan since she was a child, and she didn't ask if she knew she shouldn't ask.
Luo Jinyan called Bai Jiuniang over and asked about Qixia.
"Is she used to living here?" Having said that, Luo Jinyan also knows that from a young lady to a maid, how can she get used to it.
She never let Qixia come to see her, and she also wanted to keep a little dignity for Qixia.
Bai Jiuniang said in a low voice: "Qixia lives well, she copies the scriptures every day, and asks me to buy her two goldfish, and when she doesn't copy the scriptures, she just looks at the two fish, and it takes an hour or two to see them." ”
Luo Jinyan couldn't help but think of Zhao Qingyi again.
It is impossible for Qixia to marry into the Marquis of Xiaoyong's mansion as a lady again, and I don't know if in this life, the one who brought the son into the palace is still not Zhao Qingyi.
Thinking of this, she rose again. (To be continued.) )
