Chapter 575: Boring
Jinxiang Courtyard is playing on the edge, but Qingyi Water Pavilion is very lively. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The windows in the hall are closed, but through the bright glass windows, you can still see the plum forest and the sparkling lake in the north, and the east hall is led by Qi Jue Brother Xuan, Brother Yu and the two brothers of the Jia family sit around together, and Qi Ji cooks tea on the side.
Brother Xuan watched the young Brother Ji carefully and slightly rusty divide the tea and choose the tea, boil the plum snow, the demeanor is not beautiful but very serious, and after the first round of tea is poured, everyone picks up the teacup and tastes it, and they all praise it.
Brother Xuan took the hot purple sand kettle, "Brother Xuan, let me come." ā
Qi Ji looked at Brother Xuan and smiled: "Brother Xuan is a guest, why bother you?"
Brother Xuan smiled: "As the master, you have poured the first cup of etiquette, and I am the longest here, so naturally I should cook tea for my cousins." ā
Qi Ji looked at the second brother, and after Qi Jue nodded, he got up and gave up his seat, "Then it's bothering Brother Xuan." ā
Brother Xuan rubbed Qi Ji's hair, sat down, changed the water again, divided the tea, and cooked the tea, a set of movements as neat as flowing water.
Qi Jue smacked his lips on the side, "Brother Xuan's level of cooking tea looks like it's almost on par with the eldest brother." ā
Brother Xuan'er's smile deepened, "My father loves tea, and there are many teas in the south of the Yangtze River. ā
Who in the capital does not know that Qi Heng is the head of the four princes in the capital, Lile shoots the imperial book in a number of ways, and the tea cooking technique is also praised by His Majesty, but there are very few people who can cook tea for the prince of Rongwang, so it is even more precious.
Jia Hao on the side pouted, "According to me, this tea is not fresh, it mainly depends on how the tea is, as long as the tea is good, the boiling water will become tea as soon as it is brewed, and there is no waste of time to make these tedious efforts, it is better to call some tricksters to sing and play songs, and drink tea while listening to the songs, which is called a beautiful thing." ā
After speaking, he looked extremely bored, turned his head to look at the West Hall, and muttered, "I don't know what my cousins are playing over there?"
Brother Xuan'er poured the tea for a moment, frowning slightly, this cousin Hao is only four months old from him, but until now he is only a showman and famous, and he can't be lifted twice in a row, and I don't know if this year's Qiu Yu can be lifted?
I heard that the eighth uncle has done a lot of family law for this, but because of Mrs. Jia's doting, Cousin Hao always heals the scar and forgets the pain, and his behavior is still as debauched as before a few days.
It was too late to say this in front of his cousins today, as far as he knew, although the little aunt had a palace servant here, she rarely summoned guests, especially family banquets, and he had never seen them once in so many years.
Pretending not to hear Jia Hao's last muttering, "Today is a walk among relatives, the little aunt specially let the brothers and sisters get together in order to welcome the seventh aunt back to Beijing, Cousin Xiao has not been to Beijing for so many years, don't be separated from us, Cousin Hao has no scruples about speaking straightforwardly, and Cousin Xiao is more forgiving." ā
Qi Xiao hurriedly got up and arched his hand and said: "Cousin Xuan is polite, although I don't often contact my brothers, I often hear my mother mention it, I have been friends with you for a long time, and I am grateful to be able to meet your cousins today. ā
Everyone said, "You're welcome." ā
Only Brother Hao snorted coldly, shook his wide sleeves, and said disdainfully: "You people actually learn from those sour Confucians, one by one are stupid to read books, since everyone is brothers, naturally you should drink and delicacies, beauties release the nature of men, what is the strength of drinking this bland tea." ā
As he spoke, he rolled his eyes, and said with a shy smile at Qi Jue: "Second son, the prince of the world is in front of the elders and them, and you are the master here today, why don't we go to your courtyard for dinner and summon a few palace tricks out, I have seen the dance of the Oiran in Fengyue Tower, but the tricksters who came out of this palace have no chance to meet, so it is better for you to let me open my eyes today." ā
On weekdays, the prince of Rongwangfu always holds a shelf, and he doesn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the prince, so he is not here today, and he can't say that he can get what he wants today.
Qi Jue frowned, "That trick is under the control of the concubine, you have to call them over to get the concubine's pair of cards, if you want to see it and let the concubine summon someone to come over to perform at lunch." ā
Jia Hao's eyes lit up, "What's the point here, why don't we go to your yard, just a few of our brothers, but it's much more fun to play than under the noses of the elders." Hey. ā
In the end, I don't know which one to think of, and I grinned obscenely.
Brother Xuan frowned, but the others looked ignorant, Qi Xiao lowered his eyes and didn't know what to think.
Zhen Xuan is the biggest here, and Brother Xuan also thinks that he should take on the responsibility of teaching his younger brother, so he said in a deep voice: "Cousin Hao said carefully, today is a family banquet, and we should naturally do our filial piety by our parents' side, especially the little aunt is now pregnant with Liujia, the prince has an errand with him, and the son is responsible for his father, so we should take the son as an example, take care of our younger brothers and sisters, and serve our mother well." ā
Qi Jue straightened his back, remembered the eldest brother's explanation, and nodded vigorously, this cousin Xuan said the same as the eldest brother, now as the master, he can't just care about having fun, he has to help his mother and sister take good care of the guests, and he can't lose the face of Rongwangfu.
"What Brother Xuan said is very much, I am the master today, so naturally I can't leave the guests and just take care of myself to play, and there are sisters and sisters to take care of on the other side. ā
Jia Hao pursed his lips, glanced at everyone in the room, and looked out the window boredly, this Rongwang Mansion has been here so many times, every time he comes, it is such a thing, it has not changed since he was a child, I really don't understand how the uncle can endure such a monotonous and boring life?
If he is the prince of Rong, he will definitely take a few concubines and bring out the servants who are rewarded in the palace to sing songs every night, so as to live up to the life of this powerful person.
"It's boring here, so I'll go out and take a walk around the Merlin. ā
Qi Jue nodded, "Okay, then I'll accompany you." After speaking, he got up and said to the others: "Cousin Xuan, Cousin Xiao, Cousin Jiao, Cousin Yu, are you going to Merlin?"
Everyone looked at it and got up together, "Let's all go and have a look." ā
Jia Hao pursed his lips again, this group of people is really, like a fart, he is just thinking about the maids in this palace, and wants to go out to see if he can steal a benefit, but he was tied hand and foot by these people.
