8. Chapter 8
The so-called striking is actually to put a shoe-sized piece of wood on the ground, and then stand at a distance and hit it with another one, and the one who hits far is considered to win. Jiao Wanwan looked at it for a while, and felt a little boring, but Jiao Zhongzhan didn't have many opportunities to go out to play, and she was full of interest, not only playing by herself, but also calling Jiao Boyan and the four princes.
Although Jiao Boyan is a scholar, he also learned martial arts from Jiao Jixun, and he is more powerful than Jiao Zhongzhan, a child, so he can win Jiao Zhongzhan every time. Jiao Zhongzhan was a little unhappy, and went to ask the four princes for help.
The fourth prince nodded with a smile, stood in the distance with the wooden soil, moved his feet slightly, found the best direction, and then hit the wooden soil in his hand to the wooden soil on the ground. When I saw that I was about to hit, I didn't know where a gust of wind came, and the wooden soil was a little light, so it changed its direction slightly and hit the air.
Jiao Zhongzhan opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say. Jiao Wanwan was also a little embarrassed, mainly because as soon as the four princes came on the field, they showed that they would definitely win calmly, but they missed it, and this gap was not ordinarily big.
"Hahaha, it's all too windy, and my hair is crooked." Jiao Boyan was the first to react, hurriedly raised his hand and tugged at his hair crown, and then stretched out his hand to help: "The wind came too suddenly, this time it doesn't count, come again?" ”
The fourth prince waved his hand: "I am willing to lose the bet, I can't blame this wind, this time I have been involved in Zhongzhan." ”
Jiao Zhongzhan hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's okay, anyway, I lost a lot, and I don't care about these two or two, the fourth prince, another one?" ”
Anyway, as long as you win once, you can wash away the previous ...... Embarrassed.
This time there was no wind, and the four princes hit, the distance, won Jiao Boyan once. Jiao Zhongzhan was about to fly up happily, and gathered beside the four princes and chattered: "It's still the quasi-number one of the four princes, and the strength is enough, my eldest brother can only bow to the wind, but that's how it is after playing for a long time, my eldest sister thought of a good idea yesterday, changed the thousand thousands, and made another toy, but unfortunately I didn't bring it with me today, and I turned around, I asked the four princes to play, and it was interesting to play." ”
"Oh, what did it look like?" The fourth prince raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, Jiao Zhongzhan described it metaphorically: "It's not suitable to be called Qianqian now, if the fourth prince likes it, why don't you choose another name?" ”
"Since it is a thousand thousand reforms, and you have to beat it with a whip, let's see how to beat a thousand." The fourth prince said casually, and then, he heard Jiao Zhongzhan's stomach gurgling, the child was thin-skinned, and immediately covered his stomach and said embarrassedly: "I got up too early in the morning, and it's time for lunch again......"
"It's my negligence, then you guys go back quickly, this vegetarian food with a simple Taoist temple is still very delicious." The fourth prince said with a smile, and Jiao Boyan hurriedly saluted: "If the four princes don't dislike it, why don't we eat together?" ”
"No need, I have something to do in the afternoon, and I'm going to go down the mountain." The fourth prince waved his hand, looked at Jiao Wanwan again, beckoned, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly passed, Jiao Boyan dragged Jiao Zhongzhan back: "Oh, Zhongzhan is so hungry, I really can't wait, let's go back first, eldest sister, you will come back in a while, do you know that you will go slowly?" ”
Jiao Zhongzhan was a little unhappy: "Why do you have to carry the black pot every time?" I can't stand being hungry, how ugly it is to say, won't you find a better excuse, big brother?
"Say that people have three urgencies?" Jiao Boyan raised his eyebrows, Jiao Zhongzhan was speechless, he thought about it for a long time, and sighed: "Forget it, if you are hungry, you can only find such an excuse at this time." Speaking of which, the temperament of the fourth prince is really gentle, and I don't have to worry about the eldest sister being bullied anymore. ”
"Also, he has a gentle temperament, and he is indeed easier to get along with." Jiao Boyan also nodded, paused, and said: "The appearance of the fourth prince is also one of the best in the capital, I am afraid that the eldest sister will be regarded as an opponent by many girls." ”
"The decree of marriage has come down, even if they are regarded as opponents, they can only watch." Jiao Zhongzhan said with a smile, Jiao Boyan shook his head: "It's better to let the eldest sister go out less recently." ”
The brothers said as they waited at the back door, they really couldn't let Jiao Wanwan leave herself alone to eat.
"Let's go eat." The fourth prince looked at Jiao Wanwan with a gentle look in his eyes: "It's free, I'll take you out for a walk." ”
Jiao Wanwan nodded, looked up at the fourth prince: "If you are not in a hurry, go back to the city after lunch, it is not good for your body to go hungry." He pursed his lips and was a little embarrassed: "My grandmother and my mother are both ......."
The fourth prince nodded: "That's okay, I should have met the elders, but I was negligent." ”
As he spoke, he turned sideways slightly, signaling Jiao Wanwan to walk beside him. When they arrived at the back door, the brothers saw the four princes, Jiao Boyan still understood the reason, and Jiao Zhongzhan was taken aback, but then he understood.
The old lady and the eldest lady worshiped Sanqing, and followed the little Taoist boy to worship the gods and Buddhas in the side hall, and they were busy for a long time, and they were a little tired. Seeing the four princes entering the door, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurriedly got up and saluted, and were a little surprised: "I didn't know that the four princes were also here, and I couldn't go over to see the ceremony, so I ask the four princes to forgive me." ”
"You are elders, and I deserve to come to pay respects." The fourth prince hurriedly raised his hand, personally helped the old lady's arm, and when he sat down, he was sitting in the lower hand position, which made him a junior attitude, which was very pleasing to the old lady, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became: "You don't have to see the outside like this, if you don't dislike it, the old body will take a big one and be an elder." When did you get here? Did you come on horseback? Tired all the way? ”
The eldest lady also thinks that the fourth prince is a good one the more she looks at it, not to mention her appearance, this is full of capital, and it is difficult to find one who is better than the four princes. Needless to say, under the official family, except for the eldest prince, there is no more noble than the fourth prince, or the queen of Song, and his family can climb this family business, it is simply a pie in the sky.
The four princes are still not proud of their status, they regard themselves as juniors, and they are polite, sensible, and gentle, and there is no better son-in-law than the four princes.
"Not very tired." The fourth prince said with a smile, his voice was very gentle: "When I was in the court this morning, I heard General Jiao say that Wan Niang's arm was injured, and I was very worried, so I came to take a look, I wanted to know Wan Niang's injury, and now I can rest assured that Wan Niang is fine." ”
The old lady smiled like a flower, looked at Jiao Wanwan, and then looked at the four princes, I have to say that even if Jiao Wanwan is her own granddaughter, she was also the tip of her heart in the past, but in terms of appearance, Wanniang is still a little inferior to the four princes.
Especially the style of the whole body, my own Wanniang is a child who has not grown up, and only thinks about playing all day long. The four princes are noble and gentle. It's really shit luck for me to be able to bump into such a family affair and say something vulgar.
No wonder, the son couldn't wait to go home and ask himself and his daughter-in-law what he meant, so he directly responded to this family affair in the palace. It's hard to find, after this store, there is no village.
"Take a sip of tea first." The eldest lady said with a smile, and personally put the teacup in the hands of the four princes, and the four princes hurriedly took it with both hands: "Thank you...... Auntie, don't dare to be it, aunt put it here, I will pour tea. ”
"You're welcome, since we've met, it's better to have lunch together, what's the taboo?" The eldest lady asked with a smile, and the fourth prince shook his head: "No, the aunt can call the shots." ”
"If it's okay in the afternoon, I'll go to the back mountain with Da Lang and them, and the flowers and plants have sprouted, just to relax." The eldest lady said again: "Let Da Lang and Erlang show you the way, the two of them have been here many times, where there is fun, where there is good-looking, it couldn't be clearer." ”
said, looking at Jiao Wanwan: "Wanniang also happened to go out for a walk, didn't you still think about getting some sprouts or leaves a few days ago, steaming a green sprout?" I'll do this when I come back. ”
Jiao Wanwan smiled dryly, where would she make any green sprouts, the fourth prince hurriedly excused herself.
Unexpectedly, the fourth prince seemed to be interested, glanced at Jiao Wanwan, and nodded in response: "It's okay, then thank you Wanniang." ”
"She has nothing to do anyway." The eldest lady said with a smile, and hurriedly asked the mother-in-law next to her to bring the food over. Ordinary Taoist priests can eat some meat, but they have to eat three pure meats, that is, they don't see killing, don't smell killing, and don't kill for themselves. But the Taoist Temple is the largest Taoist temple in the capital, the rules should be stricter, pay attention to celibacy, full hair, vegetarian, live in the temple, so today's meal, is also vegetarian.
Jiao Wanwan is not picky, and this Song Dynasty can be said to be the most developed era of food culture, that is, a small piece of tofu can be made into more than a dozen, or even thirty or forty ways to eat, for Jiao Wanwan, a "countryman", even if it is a vegetarian dish, it is a supreme delicacy.
"If Wan Niang likes to eat vegetarian food, I will go back and find out and hire a lady who can make vegetarian food." The fourth prince said with a smile, and the old lady waved her hand hurriedly: "You don't have to get used to her, and this vegetarian food is only delicious once in a while, if you eat it every day, I'm afraid you can't stand it, our family is Wanniang, but she likes to eat meat." ”
Jiao Wanwan was a little speechless, she just invited a cook, this is used to her?
"It doesn't matter, as long as she likes it." The fourth prince said indifferently, and looked at Jiao Wanwan again: "In the future, my money will also be used to support the family, Wanniang is my future lady, and it is appropriate to spend some money for Wanniang, as long as Wanniang is happy." ”
Jiao Wanwan had a toothache, when the two of them were alone outside, they didn't see these four princes talk like this, and when they came to the elders, these obedient words were sentence after sentence, but it was really ...... I almost suspected that he married him for the Jiao family.
Well, whatever it is, anyway, for now, it's definitely not for yourself as a person. She is not so thick-skinned, she has never seen her before, and now she has just met her for the second time, this fairy-like beautiful man will look at her, a woman who is not middle-class.
