Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhao Changqing and Xia Wen went to Zhu Qing's house to eat warm house wine, and Liguo also went, and there was something to entrust to Zhao Changqing, "There is an old Hanlin in Hanlin Academy to say goodbye to me." M.LWxS520.com Mobile Network"

Zhao Changqing hurriedly asked, "Which one is it?" ”

Liguo smiled, "The Wang family in Cherry Hutong, I repaired the book with Wang Hanlin, and I got ready to go back and forth, and his family has a son and a daughter, and I told me about Miss Wang." Sister Qing, you have time to help me look at each other. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "What do you like, tell me first, and then I will see each other, so as to know if Miss Wang is in line with your heart." ”

Liguo scratched her head and said, "You don't have to look too good, and you don't have to look ugly, just medium." The key is to have a good temperament and be reasonable. Nothing else, the Wang family's family background is average, I know this. I'm not a rich man, and if it weren't for my brother's money, I'd still be poor. As long as you are a single-minded person, it will be. "Liguo is not that high-minded, although he has become a Hanlin, the situation at home is more complicated. If she can marry a reasonable girl who lives wholeheartedly, Liguo will be happy.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Don't worry, I'll send a post to the Wang family when I go back, see when people are free, I'll go over to visit." ”

Liguo smiled, "With Xin'er, ask Brother Awen to tell me." ”

"Don't worry."

Zhao Changqing went home to ask Xia Wen how Wang Hanlin was, Xia Wen smiled, "It's strange to always look at Wang Hanlin's speculation with Liguo's poems and paintings, Liguo, this guy, quietly did such a big thing." Wang Hanlin's official position is not high, he is from the sixth grade, but his popularity in the Hanlin Academy is not bad, and he is an honest man. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Then I'll order someone to deliver the post." ”

Xia Wen smiled, "It's half August, bring some things, that's what it means." ”

"Oh, by the way, I've prepared all the Mid-Autumn Festival rituals, you can see if it's okay." As he spoke, Zhao Changqing found out the gift list and handed it to Xia Wen, "It's a few of the families we know well, Cousin Qing's family has been sent by the way today, and Mr. 's family, the uncle's family, the eldest uncle's family, the Song family, Sister Zheng's family, Liguo, Cousin Teng, Fang Gongzi...... Is there anything else you want to add? Well, where is Li Hanlin, which one is it for? ”

Li Hanlin is Xia Wen's top official, Xia Wen thought about it for a while, and said, "It's better than Zheng Da's family." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I heard that this Master Li is a master of winemaking. ”

Xia Wen smiled, "Yes, it's just that idlers can't drink Lord Li's wine, and every year when Lord Li celebrates his birthday, he has to set up wine at home, and at that time, the entire Hanlin Academy, regardless of whether it is a bachelor in charge of the academy or a little Hanlin like us, will come to the door with a cheeky face." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I've seen the eldest son of Master Li's family before. ”

Xia Wen was slightly surprised, "Is that the Honglu Temple Shaoqing who went to sea with the fleet?" I heard that he has been at sea for a few years. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "At that time, Li Gongzi was not a Shaoqing, and Ximan was still friendly with my dynasty, so he went to the border city to do business and found the Zheng family." Lord Zheng is still a seven-grade imperial history, I am friendly with Sister Zheng, and I have introduced a merchant from the West Barbarian for him, and I haven't seen it for many years, but I can recognize it. You can know this in your heart. Don't let anyone else know. ”

"Don't worry, I'm still shouting everywhere and making others laugh." Xia Wen smiled, "I really didn't expect Li Shaoqing to have been to the border city." ”

"Don't underestimate our border city." Zhao Changqing smiled, "Since the war with the Xiban, the two countries have stopped trade, and many merchants have left. If you went to the border city in the early years, the prosperity will not let the south of the Yangtze River be prosperous, and it is not inferior to Chengdu Mansion. ”

Xia Wen smiled, "That's true." Even when he first came to the border city, he was also shocked by the prosperity of the border city.

The two talked for a while, and Zhao Changqing said, "Also, the second brother's birthday is coming." If you want me to say, the second brother was born by a coincidence, just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the festival was passed together. I ordered someone to make two new clothes, and you as the elder brother prepared some things for the second brother, and on the right day, I sent someone to send them to the second brother as well. ”

Xia Wen said, "It's already set, I'll just get it back then." ”

"Don't forget."

The two were talking, and Banxia came in and replied: Mr. Huang has something to find grandma.

Xia Wen said, "You go, I'll go to my father's place to have a look." ”

Zhao Changqing sent Xia Wen out, and Mr. Huang also came in. Mr. Huang was hired as Mr. Xia Mansion, the treatment was good, and the family was also kind, at first only taught Xia Yu, and later added Zhao Lian, which was not heavy, and he was quite satisfied with his stay in the Xia family. This time I came because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wanted to go home for a few days, and the holiday was negotiated when I came to Xia's house to teach at the beginning.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "This is as it should be, when Mr. Huang will go home, I will order someone to prepare a carriage and horse for you." ”

Mr. Huang said, "My home is outside the city, stay for a day and come back, I think, August 14, come back." ”

"Good. It just so happens that the festival also gives Sister Yu and Sister Lian two days off. Zhao Changqing asked, "How are they doing their homework?" ”

Mr. Huang said, "The two girls are both Hui Zhilanxin, Miss Lian works harder in needlework and thread, and Miss Yu is younger, lively and fond of painting. ”

Zhao Changqing nodded, sent Yahuan away, and said, "Tell me about the shortcomings." ”

Mr. Huang came out to teach, she knew best whose bowl to serve and whose to serve, she was invited by Zhao Changqing, and she didn't dare to hide it in front of Zhao Changqing, and said softly, "According to my selfish knowledge, Miss Lian's heart is not in studying, and the girl's family is old, so she thinks a lot." The jade girl is good at chess, but she works very hard in drawing, and I heard that the eldest grandmother is also very good at drawing. ”

Zhao Changqing said softly, "When children are young, they always like to imitate their elders. ”

Mr. Huang smiled, "Yes." ”

Zhao Changqing said, "After the festival, I will gradually teach them some things to sort out the accounts." ”

Mr. Huang said, "Yes." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Okay, on the fourteenth day, I will send someone to send Mr. home, and on the morning of the sixteenth, Mr. just wait at home, and the family's carriage will pick you up." ”

Mr. Huang hurriedly thanked him, said a few words and left.

After Mr. Huang left, Zhao Changqing instructed Yongfu, "Prepare a gift for Mr. Huang, and then pay a month of silver, and tell Mr. Huang that the Mid-Autumn Festival will issue more January silver, which is considered a holiday money." ”

Yongfu answered and asked, "Grandma, which family should I use to make Mr. Huang's rituals?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "There is no need to compare with any family, just prepare two lambs, two pork, two jars of wine, and ordinary thick ingredients and put six horses, and then put two liters of high-quality rice sent from Zhuangzi." ”

Yongfu smiled, "The most affordable." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Remember to do it, let Mr. Huang go home lively." ”

Yongfu hurriedly responded.

The two were talking, and Hong'er came in with a pout, mysteriously, "Grandma, that Yang Biao girl has sent something again." ”

Zhao Changqing didn't think it was strange and said, "Seeing that it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's time to send a festival, right?" ”

"The Boxing rites are all the same, but there is one thing that is strange." Without waiting for Zhao Changqing to ask, Hong'er had already said, "Miss Yang Biao gave her another pair of shoes." Doesn't she like to make shoes? ”

Zhao Changqing asked, "Is my wife wearing the shoes given by Miss Yang?" ”

"Not really."

Zhao Changqing said, "In the future, Miss Yang will send things to the house, remember to tell me." ”

Hong'er said, "You can rest assured." I'll remember that for a moment. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Ming'er went to Wang's house in Cherry Hutong to deliver a post, and told Mrs. Wang that I was Liguo's sister, and I would go over to visit if Mrs. Wang was free." ”

Hong'er said, "Yes." ”

Zhao Changqing instructed Yongfu, "Prepare the rituals of Mr. first, and I will talk to Mr. tomorrow and bring them over." ”

Yongfu said, "Yes." ”

Before the festival, everyone was busy, the Su family had no relatives, but there were a few friends, Mr. Su still had to prepare a family for the festival, and instructed Su Bai's family to send it. Human affection is like this, there are comings and goings.

When Zhao Changqing arrived at Su's house, he was just in time for Su Bai to go out, and Zhao Changqing asked, "Ah Bai, you didn't go to the Yamen?" ”

Su Bai smiled, "It's a big holiday, and my colleagues don't have the heart to repair the book, so I went to hang around, and I came back first without anything." ”

Zhao Changqing looked at a few carts of things and asked, "Don't you send a gift to the Qi family?" ”

Su Bai smiled, "I got a few jars of good wine before, and my sister drank a few glasses with my mother, so I can't accompany my sister today." ”

Zhao Changqing glanced at the purse on his waist, which was not like Mr.'s needlework, so he knew it in his heart, and said with a smile, "Go, don't delay you, ask the old man to beat you up." ”

Su Bai was embarrassed, "My sister has also learned to say these strange things." "Invite Zhao Changqing to enter the door, and Su Bai left.

Zhao Changqing said to Mr. Su, "Ah Bai's happy appearance really makes people don't know what to say." ”

Mr. Su said, "Understand Ah Bai, I only talked about my daughter-in-law at an old age, and all old bachelors are like this." ”

Zhao Changqing laughed for a while and presented the gift list, "It's all local products from Zhuangzi, I'm fine at home, just come over and talk to Mr. ”

Mr. Su looked at it, put it in his hand, and smiled, "I thought you would come over two days ago." ”

"I can't hide it from Mr." Zhao Changqing sent Yan'er and Yongfu down, she and Mr. Su have been apprentices for many years, and they know each other better than ordinary people, Zhao Changqing said, "I thought about it and thought about it, there are still many things that I haven't thought through." ”

Zhao Changqing is not too agile person, her advantage is patience. Zhao Changqing said, "How does Mr. know that my one is real?" ”

Mr. Su said softly, "I knew it when you showed it to me the first time, do you remember it, I reminded you to keep it alive." Sure, you've always had a good habit of storing things, but, let me remind you that it's only once, right? ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Don't start the topic, what I want to know is why Mr. knows that my branch is real." ”

Mr. Su smiled, "What's strange about this, I'm already good at appreciating." In this world, there are many imitations of purple jade and green clouds, in fact, it is very easy to judge, the words engraved at the end of the end are the handwriting of Emperor Fengwu himself, as long as the handwriting of Emperor Fengwu can be identified, you can identify the authenticity. Emperor Fengwu is a thousand years old, and his handwriting is very rare, but it is not nothing. There is a scenic spot in Duruo Country overseas, and there is a handwritten inscription by Emperor Fengwu on it, so I can distinguish it. ”

"Sir has ever been to sea?"

Mr. Su smiled and didn't want to talk about it, "When I was a child." ”

"I only knew it when I saw the flute of the five princesses. My husband used to tell me that if you want to distinguish a fake, look at the real thing, and you will know it immediately. Zhao Changqing said, "Before, I only thought it was an ordinary jade flute. Later, I knew that Ziyu Qingyun was a treasure, and I only thought that the one in my hand was a better imitation. Actually, whether it's true or not, for me, is not the most important thing. What I don't understand is that if the one in the Yong'an Hou Mansion is a fake, how dare he offer it? ”

Mr. Su said, "Maybe Yong'an Hou didn't know that it was a fake, otherwise, he wouldn't dare to take such a risk." ”

Zhao Changqing said, "I think so too, but I can't understand why the real thing is in the hands of Brother Chu." At least, General Chu and his wife didn't know that this jade flute was genuine, and it was definitely not the ancestral heirloom of the Chu family. ”

Mr. Su said, "You want to ask me something about the Yong'an Hou Mansion?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "I went to buy a copy of the news of Yong'an Hou." ”

Mr. Su was slightly startled, and then smiled, "Don't let Yong'an Hou know." ”

"Cats have cat paths, rats have rat paths, dare to do this business, the reputation will not be too bad, not to mention that what I bought is just some ordinary things, spent a sum of money in vain, in fact, it is not of much use." Zhao Changqing said, "So I still have to ask Mr." ”

"All I know is old things, and there's something new." Mr. Su didn't sell it, she said frankly, "Even if the one in your hand is genuine, don't take it out for the time being." Yong'an Hou's own talent is not bad, he was born before he attacked the knight, and Yong'an Hou saw that he was good at it, and he succeeded him. You must have heard of the farce of the Yong'an Hou Mansion a few days ago, Yong'an Hou has never been short of decisions, what he is good at is pretending to be confused. However, when it comes to the stakes, he is more decisive than anyone else. He is not a first-class person in the court, but he is not bad, he is too shrewd, his eldest daughter just said to the third son of the Lu Anhou family, Lu Anhou's second daughter is married to Peng Xiang's eldest grandson Peng Yanrong. Lu Anhou's eldest daughter is the first crown princess, and when there was an accident in the East Palace, the first prince's family passed away. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "What I want to do has nothing to do with the Yong'an Hou Mansion. ”

"It seems so now." Mr. Su said, "You have to wait a little longer. ”

Zhao Changqing sighed lightly, "I don't know when I have to wait." ”

"When the opportunity came, it hit the nail on the head. There are many things, and there is no second chance. ”

Zhao Changqing seemed to be talking to himself, "Yes, I've been waiting for so long, it's not bad now." ”

The master and apprentice said something, and tasted the good wine that Su Bai said at noon. Mr. Su smiled, "I made some peach wine this year and put it in the kiln for you to taste in the next year." ”

Zhao Changqing poured two cups of scalded wine and handed one to Mr. Su, "This wine is not bad, it smells so mellow, if it is clear, it must be a good wine." ”

Mr. Su smiled, "The last time I went to Qi's house, Su Bai won three games of chess in a row and won the wine. ”

Zhao Changqing touched a glass with Mr. Su, tasted it slowly, and sure enough, the entrance was clear, the aftertaste was sweet, and he smiled, "Wine is good wine." It's Ah Bai who did it, and it's more flattering. "The daughter-in-law hasn't arrived yet, so she offended the father-in-law first.

"Leave him alone." Mr. Su smiled, "You can move a jar back and drink it slowly in a while." ”

Zhao Changqing talked about Liguo's family affairs, and Mr. Su smiled, "Liguo can always do things quietly." It mainly depends on the character of the girl of the Wang family, she is sensible and reasonable, and she can live a good life. ”

"yes." Zhao Changqing smiled, "I see, it's already eight and nine." ”

Mr. Su said, "When will A-Ning's family affairs be done?" Is there a quasi-letter? ”

"Last time, my mother wrote that it had been a few days, and it had not been decided."

"Tell me when you give a New Year's gift to the border city under the New Year, I have something for A-Ning, a congratulatory gift for him to get married." Mr. Su smiled, "I'll carve a few seals and I'll show you in a while." ”

It was nearly evening when Zhao Changqing said goodbye to Su's house, and he didn't see Su Bai come back, Zhao Changqing was really convinced, and said to Mr. Su, "Ah Bai won't live in his father-in-law's house." ”

Mr. Su smiled, "He thinks that people don't want him." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Sir, don't be busy with dinner, I'll go to Kaitaifang to buy stewed mutton, and ask Hong'er to send it to Mr. in a while." Mr. Su also loves this mouthful.

Mr. Su smiled, "Then I'll wait to eat." ”

Zhao Changqing said in the car, "Life is rich and poor, but this taste is difficult to change." ”

Yongfu smiled, "It's not just grandma, it's just a few of us, and we're also thinking about the food in the border city." ”

Hong'er said, "I also think that our border city has the best food." ”

The carriage detoured to Yuehe Street, and I didn't want to meet Su Bai in front of the gate of Kaitaifang. There was also a middle-aged man in brocade next to Su Bai, looking at Miansheng. Zhao Changqing saw that Su Bai's face was slightly red, and said, "Don't stand in the wind after drinking, beware of the wind." ”

Su Bai said, "I'm in a panic in the car, I'll stand outside." Sister rest assured, I didn't drink much. "He was born, and his face was so red when he drank half a glass of wine.

"Be careful." Zhao Changqing buttoned the hat of the cloak for him, and Su Bai hurriedly introduced, "This is the Marquis of Yong'an." ”

What a coincidence!

Zhao Changqing saluted and glanced at Yong'an Hou without a trace. Zhao Changqing's impression of Yong'an Hou is not good, especially Yong'an Hou's biological mother, who is disgusting when he hears it, but he didn't expect Yong'an Hou to be so elegantly described, he is really unseemly. Su Bai said to Yong'an Hou, "My sister." ”

Yong'an Hou was quite kind, and hurriedly said, "No need to be polite. "I didn't hear that Su Tanhua has sisters.

Su Bai smiled, "My sister also came to buy stewed mutton." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I can pinch and calculate, waiting for you to have a treat." ”

Su Bai smiled, "Naturally, it's mine." "Order the little guy to buy a few more copies.

Yong'an Hou was on the side, Zhao Changqing was inconvenient to say more, and said, "You will send me home in a while." ”

Su Bai smiled, "It's cool at night, sister, let's go back first." "Send Zhao Changqing to the car and let her go first. Su Bai turned around, in fact, he also happened to meet Yong'an Hou, and he had nothing to say, "Hou Ye also likes to eat this family's mutton." ”

Yong'an Hou smiled, "Kaitaifang is the most authentic mutton restaurant in the imperial capital, and his sheep are all transported from the northwest, so there is no smell." ”

Su Bai said, "The shopkeeper is our Northwest people. ”

Yong'an Hou smiled, "Come in and talk." "It's kind of unsightly to be in the doorway.

There are many nobles in the imperial capital, and Yong'an Hou is a regular customer, even Su Bai, who also comes often, and the store hurriedly invited him to the box to serve him with good tea and water. Yong'an Hou instructed the shopkeeper, "Put on a decanting soup." ”

Su Bai hurriedly said, "Thank you, Master Hou, I have already drunk it." ”

Yong'an Hou smiled, "Looking at you like this, it really doesn't look like you've drunk sobering soup." Just on an errand, I'll be lazy and slippery. ”

Su Bai put down the hat of his cloak and looked cunning, "I came back after I went there in the morning." ”

Yong'an Hou said, "I'm afraid it's taking turns to come out and be lazy." "There are many things to do during the festival, and officials are no exception, and there are often things like early departure.

Su Bai was greatly admired, "Master Hou is from here." ”

Yong'an Hou laughed out loud, he originally had the intention of recruiting Su Bai as his son-in-law, but the Qi family was one step faster, but Yong'an Hou's impression of Su Bai was still not bad. The two talked, but it was also interesting, and in the end, even the mutton that Su Bai bought was paid by Yong'an Hou, Yong'an Hou smiled, "The roast mutton here is also good, it is best to eat it immediately when it is roasted, it will be a little cold to bring it back, and it is the same to let the kitchen roast it a little more." ”

Of course, Su Bai couldn't say anything about paying back, so he had to thank him and smile, "Next time, Master Hou must give me a chance to treat me." ”

Su Bai first asked Yong'an Hou to get in the car, saw that Yong'an Hou was gone, and instructed the little maid to send a piece of mutton to Xia's house, and he got in the car to go home, Mr. Su smiled, "You met Changqing?" ”

"I met my sister at the gate of Kaitaifang, I didn't ask her to wait, let her go back first." Su Bai said, "I also met Yong'an Hou." ”

Mr. Su smiled, "That's a coincidence." ”

Su Bai said, "After saying a few words, the stewed mutton and roast mutton bought are all paid by Yong'an Hou." He speaks very kindly, he really doesn't look like a fool. ”

Mr. Su said, "The person who said this is confused. ”

Su Bai smiled, "I know, you can't look at people too narrowly. Mother, in fact, others say that Yong'an Hou's inner house is not clear, but I feel that although the etiquette is violated, it is forgivable. ”

"How do you say that?"

"Think about it, although Mrs. Li is hateful, she is her own mother. Who can forget it? ”

"Well, if I want to put it on you, maybe it's better to be Yong'anhou."

Su Bai raised his eyebrows, "If you want to leave me alone, I won't succeed at all." Of course, wealth is good, and we have not lived a poor life. In fact, no matter how rich the day is, it is nothing more than three meals a day, and you have to call others your father and mother, how uncomfortable it is. Yong'an Hou himself is also from a humble background, and he is not untalented, if he wants to survive the future by himself, he may not be able to be a Hou Ye, but he will not be too bad to think about it. Just look at Lord Zheng's iron bones, a lifetime of coarse tea and light food, and live the same life. It's a pity that Yong'an Hou was reluctant to have his parents, and he was also moved by the title at the beginning. The good things in the world can't be taken up by one person, and I don't think he is the kind of person who is too inferior. ”

Mr. Su smiled, "Learn to judge for yourself." ”

Su Bai said, "I asked Yan'er to tell the kitchen to raise the charcoal stove, mother, let's bake something to eat." Eggplant, beans, and mushrooms, let's roast them and eat them. ”

Mr. Su smiled, "Okay." ”
