Twelve bead curtains [end of full text]
Relying on half of the green mountain, at the bottom is the magnificent Jiashan Princess Mansion. The layers of cornices and heavy corners, all according to the standard official system, have their own majesty and atmosphere, which is awe-inspiring.
When I came to the backyard, my style changed significantly. Concise and bright, gentle and peaceful. Especially over there, there is also a large vegetable field, with a lot of fresh melons and fruits, and the water looks very gratifying.
The breeze came slowly, blowing the bead curtain under the door and gently swinging, like a naughty child carrying an adult on his back, quietly picking up the water droplets of the spring, making a secret, gentle impact sound, which is very good.
The big maid brought out the basin of water from inside, and easily opened the curtain to make the room look brighter. As soon as he stepped out of the threshold, he saw the colt returning, and hurriedly squatted down to salute.
Ouyang Kang is also middle-aged now, although he is still handsome, but he has a short beard, but he is an out-and-out uncle. The two sons have become married, and now that they are also the age of holding their grandchildren, the more powerful they are, and there are relatively fewer times when they can make the little girls lose their minds.
Raising his feet and going straight into the inner room, Nian Fu woke up from his nap, and suddenly saw him come back, but he was surprised, "What happened again?" ”
Husband and wife for many years, a look of the face knows what the other party wants.
Ouyang Kang didn't even have to give it away with a wry smile, so he scolded directly, "I don't think Ding Fuchun wants to be this official anymore!" The cattle and horses in several counties under his command have all been sick, and they have not been reported for more than three months. If it hadn't been for the chance to see it on the way back from Sangilli's visit and tell me, we would still be in the dark! ”
Nian Fu wanted to say something, but saw a figure at the door. It's the newlywed daughter-in-law who came to say goodbye. I don't want to bump into my father-in-law and lose my temper, so I'm stuck there in a dilemma.
Nianfu hurriedly said, "Ah Xuan, come in, it's out of the way." ”
Guan Mingxuan came in and saluted her in-laws.
Looking at the embarrassment on her face, she said in a gentle manner, "Family, don't have to stick to these courtesies, it's not a big deal to listen to what your father says." ”
Guan Mingxuan's face was better. Meekly stood aside. Lowering the eyebrows and narrowing the eyes, it is very regular.
Nianfu sighed slightly in his heart, this child was born very well. It's good temperament, too. It's a pity that I had a high fever when I had smallpox when I was a child. Some lost their alertness. Later, it became a heart disease for Guan Yaozu and his wife.
Especially the Shen family, who is afraid that it will not be easy for her daughter to marry in the future, she is becoming more and more demanding. A female red needlework. Housekeeper and other things that need to be learned in the future as a housewife, she has worked harder and harder than anyone else.
But the Nianfu family is closed, but it is the least need to talk about rules in the world, especially for young sons. Let's leave it to her first, take your time.
So Nianfu did not shy away from it, and said to Ouyang Kang, "Ding Fuchun, although he has some great achievements, he is not bad. He didn't report it, the situation should not be so serious, otherwise when the autumn harvest comes, he won't be able to show his stuffing? If you don't feel at ease, it's better to go and see for yourself. Do you want to pack your bags now? ”
Nianfu said Ouyang Kang angrily in just a few words, "You have a point, it's me who is impatient." Give me two simple clothes, and I'll take a look, and I'll be back in two or three days at most. ”
He turned to his daughter-in-law and explained to him with a pleasant face, "Ah Xuan, you're not scared, are you?" It's my dad who has a bad temper. You are at home these days, spend more time with your mother-in-law. ”
Guan Mingxuan complied, but when she saw that her mother-in-law really only took two clothes and sent her father-in-law away, she couldn't help but be surprised.
In Beijing, her father and mother get along well enough, but every time her father has tolerance, even if she only walks for two or three days, her mother is always worried about packing up a lot of things, including clothes, commonly used medicinal materials or something, all for her father to bring, which is like a mother-in-law, less than three sentences before and after, and it is finished?
Then, she only sent Ouyang Kang out of the hospital, and then turned her head and instructed her subordinates to bring the boiled sour horn soup to relieve the heat.
Nianfu saw what she meant, winked and smiled, "Do you think that I don't care too much about your father-in-law?" ”
Guan Mingxuan's face flushed, "It's the daughter-in-law who is ignorant and speculates randomly." ”
Nianfu shook his head and smiled, "You kid, everything is good, it's just too regular." ”
Guan Mingxuan blushed, but inevitably added a little embarrassment, and felt even more uneasy. What does mother-in-law mean by this? Does she think she's boring and doesn't like herself?
Nianfu couldn't help but say, "Your father used to have such a playful temperament, and your mother is not a rigid person, she dared to change into men's clothes and run out to sing glamorous songs, why did you raise you so honestly?" ”
Belch?
Guan Mingxuan was really shocked this time, her mother? Singing glamorous songs?
Ahem, the cure for serious illness has to be fierce. Nianfu is to give her a blow to the head, so that she can be enlightened. She doesn't have a girl in her life, but she likes other people's little girls. I feel so distressed about the little girl in the house, how can I give up such a little bun as my daughter-in-law?
But with her current status, there are some things that are really hard to say.
Seeing that Guan Mingxuan was interested, Nianfu only pursed his lips and smiled, "You go back and ask Ah Yue." In short, Ah Xuan, you remember, treating people well is not based on these rules, and our family doesn't talk about this. You're here to be a daughter-in-law, not to follow the rules. If we were those people, your father and mother would not marry you all the way away. Okay, you go back first, wait for the sun to go down, and let the maids walk around with you, so you don't have to be confined to the house all day. ”
Guan Mingxuan was indeed a little uncomfortable, and quit, thinking all the way, how could her mother sing a glamorous song? But how could her mother-in-law lie to her?
This afternoon, restless, even the fairy grass that should have been embroidered on the purse was mistakenly embroidered into willow leaves, and it was too late to change when it was found.
"Okay, what are you going to do? If you don't like it, give it to me. ”
Guan Mingxuan's face flushed, it was Su Shi, her husband was back.
Although Nianfu has a fief in the southwest, because the eldest son is in the capital, and the youngest son is passed on to the Su family, this fief must be inherited by no one after her death, and it must be returned to the Liang Dynasty.
Because of this, although Nianfu raised his young son by his side since he was a child, he did not spoil him, but let him learn to support himself. Now they are pro. even divided the accounts of their young couple's house, and asked Su Shi to bear it himself.
This is not difficult, Su Shi has already had his own livelihood. Although he could cook, he did not become a cook, but opened a farm, specializing in growing fresh ingredients and selling them at a high price. And it is said that he seems to have quite a few such farms.
For people like them, money is not an issue. Guan Mingxuan's dowry alone is enough for the two of them to eat for a lifetime, but she still thinks so. Is this a bit too much?
When the children of which family are not separated. Is the parent-teacher meeting so clear? She didn't fight for all this money, she just thought that doing this would hurt her feelings?
But the old lady next to her told her, "Princess, this is really good for you." That's going to happen. Say something that shouldn't have happened. What's in the house now? Could it be that the eldest young master will come to fight with you in the future? Even if the two sides are evenly divided, there are a lot of them. Grandma, you should also know now that the eldest young master will definitely take a career in the future, and the official must not be young. Our second master just needs to live in peace. If he doesn't learn some skills to make a living, he can do it, but if he learns, won't it benefit his future children and grandchildren? ”
Guan Mingxuan looked back, and realized the hard work of being a parent.
Just like in the past, when she was young, when she first got sick, her mother went back and begged her aunt of the Shen family, saying that if there was no other family to hire her in the future, she would marry her cousin. But her mother was also afraid that she would be angry after marriage, so she was so strict with her.
But no one expected that when she was fifteen years old and in the year she was young, Su Shi specially brought the hairpin given by Nianfu to Beijing, saying that he asked to marry.
Guan Mingxuan recalled the past and didn't feel that she had anything to attract attention.
She has known the two elder brothers of the Ouyang family since she was a child, and compared to this brother named Taro, she is more familiar with the brother named Potato Boy, and it is also better.
In the hazy fantasy of youth, Guan Mingxuan also once thought that if Brother Potato could marry her, how good would it be?
Because among the opposite sex she has known since she was a child, there is no one who protects her more and loves her more than Brother Potato Boy. But she also knew that she would never marry Brother Potato Boy.
She didn't have to understand any big truths, she only remembered one small thing.
It was when she was ten years old, and she had a birthday, and Brother Potato had already said that he would bring someone to celebrate her. That day, he did not break his promise, even if he still had to prepare for the imperial examination, he still came with a large group of young talents.
Through the screen with the veil, or make poems and paintings, or play the piano and play music, and give her gifts.
Guan Mingxuan was very happy, and her mother was also very happy, because she was still young, so she was specially allowed to go out to thank her.
Guan Mingxuan went and tried hard to say words of thanks.
But who knows, at that time, a talented man temporarily showed his hand, dipped his finger in ink, and quickly drew a lifelike portrait of her and gave her a gift.
Someone next to me joked that she had to return a gift.
People are not malicious, but Guan Mingxuan was stunned all of a sudden. She still remembers her predicament vividly.
Since she was a child, her mother said that her brain is not so bright, and if she wants not to make mistakes, it is best to do things according to the script. How to deal with such an emergency, she really has to think about it.
Who knew that the little brother who accompanied her out was very clever and ordered someone to make a basin of clean water, and personally stepped forward to wait for someone to clean his hands, which relieved her siege.
Guan Mingxuan only felt extremely annoyed afterwards. Why didn't she think of such a simple thing?
And Brother Potato Boy, he has so many friends, and he can handle each one so well. But what if he reunited with these friends in the future and asked her to entertain their wives?
From that day on, Guan Mingxuan knew that he would never be able to marry Brother Potato and be his wife. So she sealed everything that Potato gave her, and completely let go of those girls' thoughts.
But she also began to doubt herself, if she can't marry Brother Potato Boy, she can be a cousin?
Until Su Shi came to ask for marriage, Guan Mingxuan was surprised, but actually a little surprised.
Not for anything else, just because Ouyang Shan told her since he was a child that he had a younger brother, who, like her, had a serious illness.
Isn't he too smart?
What happened later seems to confirm this.
After Su Shi expressed her determination to ask for a kiss, she ran to her house every day. Send a kite today, buy a clay figurine tomorrow, and make some delicious snacks and dishes every now and then, all of which Guan Mingxuan likes.
But aren't these practices too stupid? How can a smart man do that?
In particular, the love poems he wrote are all so easy to understand. Even the little girl who knew a few words laughed, so that her mother couldn't pretend to be confused, so she had to go to her father to discuss.
He said, "What do you ask me to do?" I said earlier, instead of letting Ah Xuan marry back to your mother's family, I would rather her marry taro. Although it is a little farther, her in-laws are easy to serve, and the population of the family is simple, how good is her life? ”
After struggling for several days, the mother finally decided to let her marry far away.
Guan Mingxuan was a little happy. I was also a little apprehensive.
Rejoice. The person who wants to marry is not very smart, and the worry is that both of them are so stupid, what will they do if they are bullied in the future?
When the younger brother heard this, he sighed heavily. grabbed the pastry that the prospective brother-in-law had just sent and stuffed it into his mouth. "Who in the whole capital doesn't know that Brother Ouyang protects his younger brother the most? I'm afraid I won't wait for others to bully you. He bullied him first. It's your turn to worry about it? ”
Guan Mingxuan's face sank a little unhappily, Brother Potato will not bully people casually! Besides, this pastry is her favorite. Don't eat it anymore!
When she got married, she began to realize that her husband did not seem to be as unintelligent as she thought.
For example, when he looked at the willow leaves she embroidered wrongly, he would say, "The willow leaves are very good, and the willows will stay together." You gave it to me, I wear it every day, and when I look at it, I think of you waiting for me at home every day, isn't that good? ”
Guan Mingxuan's face was red, but her heart was full of sweetness. I asked for the purse back, and made up my mind to embroider two lovesick birds before giving it to him.
But she still had doubts in her heart, and after sending her subordinates out, she quietly asked, "My father, what kind of person was in the past?" ”
Su Shi smiled a little naughty, "Did you listen to what my mother said?" ”
Guan Mingxuan immediately shook her head, "No." ”
Mother-in-law speaking ill of her in-laws behind her back, in the end, is not an elegant thing.
But Su Shi suddenly pinched her nose, "Lying is to have a long nose!" ”
Guan Mingxuan was ashamed and annoyed, and turned her back angrily.
Su Shi smiled and hugged her from behind, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you." Your father, in the past, he was a famous gentleman in the capital, and your mother was also naughty. I heard that the first time they met was on the lake on the outskirts of Beijing......"
After Guan Mingxuan listened to her parents' story, her eyes were already red and swollen.
She never knew that her father and mother had such a hard time to come together. And Uncle Gongsun, who is really a good person. No wonder Aunt Gongsun had a difficult birth that year, and her mother would send the best old counselor in the family, and she was so anxious to go to the Buddha and kneel all day until she gave birth safely.
Su Shi put his arm around her and gently gave her a gentle back, "However, it's still very good that they can finally have a lover who can finally become a family." Hee-hee, just like us, isn't it? ”
Guan Mingxuan suddenly asked, "But why do you like me?" "She hasn't sung any glamorous songs.
Su Shi pointed to his lips with crooked eyebrows.
Guan Mingxuan understood, but she was so embarrassed that she didn't want to pay attention to him, but when she took a break in the evening, she couldn't help but go over and kiss him, and quietly asked, "Why?" ”
Su Shi said, "I've waited so long, I'm going to collect interest!" ”
All right.
Anyway, the lights were turned off, and Guan Mingxuan blushed and waited for him to finish collecting the "interest," and finally got an answer.
"I went to Beijing when I was ten years old, you were only five or six years old, I went to your house to play, and I saw you with a serious fat little face, with two small bags of buns, and followed the adults to learn the rules. I thought, why is this little girl so funny? How nice it would be if you could pinch her chubby little face? ”
As he spoke, he pinched her cheeks.
Guan Mingxuan was so angry that he slapped his chest, "How can I be fat? Not all children are like that! ”
Su Shi hugged her and smiled in the brocade quilt.
From this day on, Guan Mingxuan, who is often ridiculed as "chubby", will also jump to her feet in anger and lose her temper. Then, there were some things that she wanted to do at home but didn't dare to do, and she began to do them unconsciously.
Five years later, her mother-in-law sent her to take the child and return to Beijing with her husband.
It happened that her mother was sick that year, her brother and daughter-in-law had not yet come to the door, her father was busy with official business, her grandparents were old, and there was no one at home to preside over it.
Guan Mingxuan was very angry, but she kept holding back. waited until that day, caught a steward's mistake, and smashed the account book in his face, and he had a seizure.
Her mother rushed over to save the scene uneasily, but saw her daughter sneering and scolding her for a cup of tea. Seventeen or eighteen things were piled up to the point, without a half-sentence pause, scolding those subordinates speechless and convinced.
Seeing her mother-in-law's eyes widening in disbelief, her husband smiled beside her and said, "My mother has long said that Ah Xuan is extremely smart, but you are not at ease, and you are always afraid that she will make a mistake." But that's fine, cheap son-in-law me. ”
Her mother was stunned. Then he hid his face and wept bitterly.
These tears. It's self-blame, but it's joy.
When Guan Mingxuan was about to leave, her mother took out a small brooch at the bottom of the box and gave it to her, "Don't look at this thing, it's as white as silver." Actually, it's gold. There is only one piece of the entire Shen family. Or when I came out of the cabinet. My grandmother took pity on me and gave it to me. Ben asked me to wear it differently, but I was always reluctant. I wanted to pass it on to your brother. Now let's send your mother-in-law. Thank you for teaching you so well, I just closed my eyes immediately, and I can rest assured. ”
Guan Mingxuan couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it. Take it back and show it to Xianggong, it's also strange.
But when I think about it, I say, "If we don't make such a precious material, it will be too wasteful." It's better to give it to Dad, we can do more favors. ”
You're smart! Guan Mingxuan glanced at him with disdain, but didn't say much.
Ouyang Kang took this small brooch, thought about it for a long time, drew a look, and asked a silversmith to change it.
waited until the night before Nianfu's birthday to quietly put it in her jewelry box.
When Nianfu got up the next day and took a look, he couldn't help but change his face, "Where did this thing come from?" Where did it come from! ”
Ouyang Kang was startled, "What's wrong?" Isn't it good? ”
Nianfu grabbed the piece of jewelry, it was a gaffe that she had never had, her lips trembled violently, and she looked at her husband's eyes anxiously, "Say!" This is...... Where did it come from? ”
Hearing that there was already a faint cry in his wife's words, Ouyang Kang hurriedly admitted, "I did it!" This piece of white gold is the ancestral heirloom of Yaozu and his daughter-in-law's family, because it is very rare, I will send it to you, and I will let people change it like this. Really, I don't mean anything else, I just want to surprise you...... Don't cry, don't cry! ”
Ouyang Kang was so anxious that he couldn't cry anymore.
What she was holding in her hand was a brooch.
It's just that this brooch has been beaten into a heart shape that is rare in this era, and it is still a beautiful streamlined shape.
This look is exactly the same as the pendant on the necklace that Nianfu had received in his previous life.
Nianfu has been wearing it for ten years, and he will never be mistaken.
"Li Yong!"
She looked at Ouyang Kang fixedly, and suddenly called out a completely unfamiliar name.
Ouyang Kang was stunned, who? What is she talking about?
But soon, as if delusional, his wife had wiped away her tears and smiled, "Thank you, this is the best gift I have ever received." ”
Ouyang Kang was a little confused, but his wife had already pounced in front of him, still with tears hanging from her eyes, but said with a smile, "Let's go play!" ”
Belch? Running to play at this time?
Ouyang Kang became more and more confused, but he couldn't bear to refuse. Because the smile on his wife's face is so beautiful, and the sparkle in her eyes is too bright.
He couldn't tell, but he just felt that his wife's heartfelt joy was due to him.
And-
I love him more than ever.
Mmmm, go back and send more pocket money to your son and daughter-in-law, this gift is really good.
The two of them left holding each other, and the beaded curtain that shook when they went out naughtily raised a wonderful long arc behind them, like a corner of a cloak, and the newborn sunlight shone on it, refracting a colorful and bright light, which was dazzling......
