The seventieth episode of the matchmaker outside the play
In the last book, it was said that Shao Zi was clever in the subtleties, and now he continues the previous article and continues to part ways with the public. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, speaking of this string of white jade Bodhi, there is a secret thing inside, and few people know about it.
said that on that day, it was Xie Tingyu's birthday. And because it coincided with the year of his crown, the Xie family held a family banquet and invited Shao Changyun and Shao Zimu to get together. Coincidentally, although Shao Zimu and Xie Tingyu were not born in a year, they happened to be born on the same day. It was also because of this that the Shao family also had their own celebrations, so they had to politely refuse the invitation of Xie Fu.
Shao Zimu and Xie Tingyu have always been good friends, and they couldn't go to congratulate their brother on his birthday in person for a while, so he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart. It is necessary to prepare a congratulatory gift carefully to show the heart of the younger brother.
This white jade Bodhi incident also started from here.
Let's say that early that morning, because of the teacher who taught Shao Zi to read and write, she had been ill in recent days and had not been able to go to the house to teach, so she was allowed to take a few days off in the child period, so that she could be cheap.
Please have good morning for a while, Shen Xinyi saw that there was nothing to do about the child's period, so he sent the old lady beside him to the Tiaohua Courtyard. Staring at the sub-period to learn some needlework and weaving and other women's plans for the future.
That Shao Ziqi is free and easy by nature, and he has a lot of manly ambitions, how can he calm down and be a lady who pinched needles and twisted threads. took advantage of the old lady's ignorance for a while, secretly threw away the maids and women who were waiting in the courtyard, and slipped into the garden to hide lazily.
Due to a heavy snow a few days ago, the flowers and trees in the garden are hung with a layer of shallow ice, reflecting the early morning sun, shining like a glass world. Shao Ziqi flew to the garden and chose a snow road that had not been cleared.
The snow was uncleaned, and it was a snow nest under your feet. The child has always been naughty, and he is not afraid of the snow and ice, and walks in a staggering manner, leaving behind a string of light laughter like silver bells.
"Who said that all heroes in this world are men, if there is an opportunity, I will also fight on the battlefield."
"Who said that all the fame in this world is a man, if the time comes, I will also pass on the Golden Palace to compete for the top three."
"Who said ......"
"Who said ......"
Shao Ziqi wore a crimson cloak, spread his hands, and spoke loudly, wandering in the arms of this ice and snow world like a bird. She laughed, made a fuss, screamed, and rolled through the layers of snow, carefree as a child. Her cloak flew in all directions, shining like fire.
For a while, the snow and mist flew, stirring up bursts of ice crystals, which were as bright as the Nine Heavens Milky Way. Shao Ziqi was fascinated, and he didn't know how long he was playing before he stood up panting. Although it is a pleasure to play in that garden, it is inevitable to lose the novelty of being trapped in it all day long. Shao Ziqi slowly walked around the courtyard twice. The excitement on her face gradually cooled, and she slowly calmed down, and her expression became depressed.
His thoughts flew away for a while, and Shao Ziqi walked away, and before he knew it, he walked to the end of the garden. A wall of blue tiles and white walls imprisoned the child in the garden like a high mountain, and he could not take another step.
Shao Ziqi raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard wall in front of him, put the handrail on it, a trace of deep depression flashed in his eyes, and muttered: "How can this world be so strict with women, not to mention breaking wings and beaks, but also tightly locked in that golden wire cage, and living a life." ”
The garden was silent, and no one answered. Only the cold wind was blowing, and this paragraph of soft words was swept away, and no trace could be found.
Shao Ziqi stood silent for a long time and left with his head bowed. She kicked the gravel under her feet at will, and it was the time of boredom.
Suddenly, unexpectedly, the gravel under the feet of the child flew out and fell under a plum tree, shaking off the white plum. Shao Ziqi casually flicked a white plum on his sleeve, and suddenly remembered today's appropriate Shao Zimu's birthday. She had an idea at the moment, so she quietly went to Zimu's study to see what fun she had to pass the boring time.
When I arrived outside Zimu's study, it was all silent. The swallows under the corridor have long spread their wings and flown south, looking for a place to avoid the winter, leaving only an empty nest, hanging lonely among the beams, desolate.
Shao Ziqi stared at the empty nest of swallows, and unconsciously fell into fascination. Her eyes stood firmly under the porch, and the cold wind lifted the broken hair on her cheeks and scattered in all directions. In my obsession, I forgot to go into the house to keep warm.
Shao Zimu had already heard movement in the house, but no one came in for a long time, and he was secretly puzzled, so he had to get up and take a look. When I opened the cotton curtain to look, I saw that Ziqi was standing under the beam, looking up and not knowing what he was looking at.
"Where did this come from, look at this snow all over my head, I don't know how to shake the dew, don't get cold anymore." Shao Zimu saw that the cloak on Ziqi's body was stained with snow water, and he hurriedly pulled her into the house.
Shao Ziqi condensed slightly, and when he saw that it was Zimu who greeted him in person, he couldn't help but smile and said: "I came from the garden, and I saw that it was about to snow." I happened to get to my brother, so I came in to avoid the cold, and by the way, I begged for a cup of tea, and my brother wouldn't blame me for being indifferent. ”
Shao Zimu stepped forward with his sleeves, except for the crimson cloak on his body, and said with a shallow smile: "You, in this snowy day, you don't even bring a maid when you go out, maybe you sneak out." ”
"I can't hide this from my brother, if they hadn't detained me to learn those needlework, I would have been happy to be warm in the house." Shao Ziqi smiled, rubbed his hands, and leaned over to the brazier to bake the fire.
"Just count you naughty, drink some hot water to evaporate the cold first, so as not to find cool air again." Shao Zimu said with a smile.
Ziqi smiled, saw the new tea barrel on the case again, and said with a salivating face: "That white water monster is tasteless, why don't my brother reward me with a cup of hot tea." ”
Shao Zimu's eyes lit up when he saw Ziqi, and said with a smile: "Don't think about the tea, but my mother gave a death order." If you eat it today, Mother will not spare me. ”
"Hey, poor ......" Shao Ziqi flattened the corners of his mouth and said miserably.
Shao Zimu chuckled and shook his head, ignoring her. A group of people brought a copper kettle down from the stove next to them, poured boiling water and handed it to the child. The party removed the copper cover on the brazier, picked the tongs and picked the cooked charcoal inside, and then added two pieces of new charcoal.
"What are you looking at outside? The man was stunned, and he didn't like to freeze his ears. Shao Zimu cleaned up neatly, sat down with his sleeves folded, and asked with a smile.
"I'm looking at my brother's swallow's nest under the beam."
"It's just an empty swallow's nest, what's so strange. As soon as the early spring arrives in Ming'er, when the big swallow comes back, I will call you again. Shao Zimu thought that Ziqi was like other girls, and he liked the birds and birds, so he didn't care.
Shao Ziqi smiled faintly and did not answer. The whole time, she didn't look at the swallow. What she wants in her heart is the freedom to come and go freely between heaven and earth.
"Why don't you see anyone waiting? What about Brother Qingyun? Shao Ziqi looked around and changed his mind.
"Today is the birthday of the second master of the Xie family, and I engraved Fang Yuyin to congratulate him. Who knew that he couldn't find a box to match, so he sent Qingyun out to find it. Zimu chuckled, and pretended to be disgusted: "Speaking of which, Qingyun's kid doesn't know where he went, it's been an hour, but he doesn't even see a shadow." When he returns, he will be punished. ”
"Xu didn't find a good box to match, how can he be careless about the congratulatory gifts given to the people his brother admires. Brother Qingyun is not such a playful person, brother don't wronged a good person. Shao Ziqi couldn't help but distinguish a sentence for Qingyun because of Qiuyu.
"You'll be a good person, just you." Shao Zimu was just joking, and he was never really angry. Now that I heard the child say this, I also responded instantly.
Shao Ziqi muttered a few words in his mouth, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he smiled again: "Today is the birthday of the second master of the Xie family, and the congratulatory gift from my sister, can my brother get it?" When the time comes, it will be sent over together, and it will save trouble. ”
Shao Zimu was stunned, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard the eldest sister mention it?" ”
"Our girl's thoughts, how can there be a big arrogance." Shao Ziqi hid a deep smile in his eyes and said seriously. "My sister heard that the second master of the Xie family, Su Xi, talked about the scriptures with the monks, and specially found a string of rare white jade Bodhi. My brother was really sloppy, and he didn't even know about it. ”
"Not mine." Shao Zimu smiled and said, "Without further ado, I'll send someone in to ask." ”
"I can't do it." Shao Ziqi saw Shao Zimu get up, and shouted busily.
"How?" Shao Zimu was puzzled.
Shao Ziqi's eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "Our girls are thin-skinned, and my brother asks with such a big prick, my sister is not ashamed." ”
"You're thoughtful."
"Brother, wait here, I'll go find my sister and get it."
Before Shao Ziqi could say anything, he pulled his cloak and went out. The sub-period didn't care about the slippery snow road, so he drove all the way and went straight to the Tiaohua Temple.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, Lang Yue greeted her and said, "Where has the girl gone, but let's find it here." ”
"Hurry, I'll confess to my sisters later." Shao Ziqi dodged away from Lang Yue and said urgently. "Have you seen the string of white jade Bodhi between my mother and me some time ago?"
"How did you find this? Didn't the girl always love those things? Lang Yue wondered.
"My sister only said that she didn't see it."
When the slave saw that the girl did not love her, she put it in the box. If the girl wants it now, the slave and maid will find it. ”
"Hurry up, hurry up, 100,000 urgent."
"Yes." Lang Yue responded softly and went to the small warehouse to find the bracelet.
Shao Ziqi looked at Lang Yue's distant back, and said with a sly smile: "Today, I will also be a matchmaker outside the play." ”
It turned out that Jiang Zi, the son of Shao Zi, had always been virtuous and dignified, and he was unwilling to do this private thing. I thought about taking advantage of Xie Tingyu's birthday to send a congratulatory gift, and secretly gave my son Jiang all his heart. After Shao Ziqi thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible. Only then did he deceive Shao Zimu and find a string of white jade Bodhi as a congratulatory gift, so as to take the name of Zijiang.
It is because of this old incident that in the imperial garden, although Shao Ziqi and Xie Tingyu have never seen each other. The reason why Shao Ziqi was able to recognize Xie Tingyu was also because of this string of white jade Bodhi.
Now that the cause of the past has been revealed, I want to know what the story is in the royal garden, and listen to the details below.
