Saying this, Qiu Chen was inevitably nervous. Lifted a breath in the throat. To tell the truth, the one she is optimistic about Junwen is Qiu Ruyi, and others such as Wang Jingshu, Song Xi'er, and Gu Qingning are either too high in family background or have unpleasant personalities......

Qiu Chen also calmed down a little at this time, and said in a calm tone: "No matter whose boat it is, it hasn't been mentioned yet, so it's okay to make a mistake, and you say, whose do you think it belongs to?" ”

After stumbling for a long time, Junwen couldn't say who it wasn't from, Qiu Chen, who was anxious, almost burst into flames in his heart, Junshu was really anxious, held Junwen's hand, and asked repeatedly: "That boat belongs to Miss Qiu, whose do you think it belongs to?" ”

Junwen was completely stunned, and even his footsteps involuntarily stopped: "Then, that flower boat is not ...... It's not ......"

Junshu was also a little puzzled, stared at Junwen and said, "The flower boat you fished up that day was put by that Miss Qiu, didn't you take a fancy to her?" ”

Qiu Chen was also stunned, and subconsciously turned his eyes to look at Junshu.

Junwen was slightly stunned, his face was strange, and his voice trembled slightly, and he asked Qiu Chen, "Which ...... is the girl Qiu that my aunt is talking about?"

"Then the Qiu family is ranked sixth...... Although the taste is not high, it can be regarded as an official eunuch, a family of poetry and rites, and the girl of the Qiu family is also generous, dignified and virtuous...... In the past two days, you have also met a lot, and I think that not only can you see your appearance clearly, but also understand your character. If you think it's agreeable, I'll send someone to propose a kiss......" Qiu Chen didn't detour, and went straight to the point.

Qin Zheng still took the children to the school to practice, and Qiu Chen also followed, calling Junwen and Junshu to take a walk together.

After eating the send-off banquet, let Yixuan's mother and son go back to Wisteria Xuan early to talk, Ming'er Yixuan and Mingwei's mother and daughter left Beijing, and the little brothers were about to leave their mothers. Let their mothers and sons be close and talk to each other.

In the evening, Lin Xu, Afu Aman, Junwen Junshu and others all came back from school, and the family got together and gave Yixuan's mother and daughter a send-off banquet in the front hall of Mu'en Courtyard. During the banquet, Qiu Chen picked up what he remembered and instructed Yixuan again.

Yi Xuan and Ming Wei's mother and daughter's luggage had already been packed, Qiu Chen took a cursory look, added some more sympathy to it, and then returned to Mu'en Courtyard with Brother Yun and had lunch with Qin Zheng.

On the morning of the fifth day of the first month of March, Qiu Chen, who had eliminated his fatigue after a good night's sleep, sent the children out to school, and after dealing with the housework, it was close to the end of the day, Ming'er Yixuan's mother and daughter were about to leave, Qiu Chen gave an order to the kitchen, and took Brother Yun to Wisteria Xuan.

After March 3, the next step is to send Yixuan and Mingwei's mother and daughter out of Beijing.

The two-day tour ended on the afternoon of the fourth day of the first month of March, and everyone packed up again and returned to the capital by car. Before twilight fell, Qiu Chen sent reliable people to send everyone home, and she also returned to the Jingbei Hou Mansion with her children.

The guards were not idle, and brought some ropes and the like up the mountain, and soon caught a lot of golden pheasants and hares, and the luncheon added delicious game. As for the robes and yellow sheep and other things, they are carrying their cubs this season, but no one who is particular about them will hunt them in this season.

After the morning of the second day, Qin Zheng and a few older people wandered around the lakeside, and then went to the lake pavilion to feast and talk. The young boys and children gradually relaxed, and dismissed many of the guards, leaving only a few girls and mothers-in-law to wait, and went fishing and playing in the lake in two boats.

There is no murmuring stream of the Jiangnan garden here, but there is a canal connecting the river and the lake, there is also a section of bending water, the bluestone bank, the willow is still around, the peach and apricot are beautiful, Qiu Chen ordered people to install a few small dishes on the bluestone on the riverside, and place a few plates of light side dishes at will, Qiu Chen took a group of female dependents to be located in the upper reaches, out of pairs, poems and verses passed down, and the men sitting next to the river who have a pair or verses can use a special long-handled wooden spoon to pick up a glass of wine that slowly floats down on the river...... It can also be regarded as experiencing the fun of a 'meandering water'.

The Jingbei Houfu and his entourage arrived at the Zhuangzi of Qin Zheng in Tongzhou, where there are also mountains and rivers, and the apricot blossoms and peach blossoms in the orchard are open in succession, delicate and pink, fresh and delicate, and support a piece of full spring.

Lian Wenchu naturally nodded in response, carefully buckled the pill box, and handed it to the little guy to put away properly.

Peng Chongxin stretched out his hand and pinched a pill, looked at it in his hand for a moment, and then put it back in the box: "Well, since Mrs. Hou has a heart, you should go back and take two more pills, it's good to drive away the cold, don't get sick again." ”

On the contrary, it was Xiang Dacheng, who drank a little too much, and as soon as he got in the car, he fell asleep in the corner, snoring constantly, and there was no excitement and excitement of others at all. Even Lian Wenchu and Peng Chongxin were relatively calm, but Lian Wenchu was holding a small box, opened it to look at the things inside, and said to Peng Chongxin with a sigh: "I didn't expect the Jingbei Hou couple to be so high-ranking and prominent, but they are still so close to peace...... Before leaving, Mrs. also asked people to confess the pills for preventing wind and cold, and this careful concern was really admirable. ”

The Jingbei Hou Mansion went all the way from the Tieji Temple to Tongzhou Zhuangzi, and the group of young students took their little servants to find the car when they arrived, and talked all the way back to the capital. After drinking, they all brought some drunkenness, one of these people counted one, their eyes were bright, their faces were full of red and excited, talking about the adventure of going out of the city on this day, being able to meet Jingbei Hou, and let Jingbei Hou invite a banquet, which was much more exciting than a little peach blossom and a little little love.

The Jingbei Hou Mansion and his entourage naturally resigned from the group of young students and parted ways. Junwen Junshu and Lian Wenchu and Peng Chongxin had a very happy conversation, and the arrogant Xiang Dacheng voted for Ah Fu and Lin Xu's fate, and before leaving, they exchanged addresses with each other and made an appointment to talk about it another day, so they said goodbye.

This waterfront drinking feast, thinking that the previous flower boat incident, did not get any new things, the curtain is on the ground, the mountains and water, eating, drinking, talking and laughing, it can be regarded as the exhaustion of wine, starting from the end of noon to the beginning of the Shen time.

The four young men were in good spirits, talking and laughing out of the small courtyard, and they also went to meet their uncle Qin Zheng first, and then turned to walk down, and came to Lin Xu Afu and the others.

Junwen glanced at Junshu and said with a smile: "Brother is invited, don't dare to resign!" ”

Even Wen Chu also has a bold personality, and when he heard the words, he also threw aside his awkwardness and shame, and happily agreed with a smile on his face: "Okay, at that time, you and my brothers will take care of it a few more times!" I grew up on the shore of Honghu Lake, so I don't believe I can be compared to you! ”

After being polite, they straightened up and looked at each other and smiled naturally, especially Junwen and Lian Wenchu, who can be regarded as not knowing each other, or can be regarded as having merits and hardships, looking at each other at this time, they have some cordial familiarity, Junwen naturally stepped forward, patted Lian Wenchu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Lian, after two months, we will be invited to travel together!" ”

Lian Wenchu was still a little embarrassed and ashamed, but Peng Chongxin could only admire and gratitude, bowed down and thanked with a smile: "We are similar to each other's heights, and these clothes, shoes and socks are as if they were made for us, which is not inappropriate." Thank you both, and please thank you on your behalf! ”

Junwen looked at the two of them with a smile and asked, "This is the clothes that my aunt prepared for my brother, I don't know if the two brothers are wearing any fat and thin inappropriate, call a grandma to come over and help change it!" ”

The two of them came out with dry new clothes, naturally they were comfortable and full of admiration, and then they looked at the same muslin long and straight embellishment, but it was the two brothers Junwen Junshu in lake blue, and naturally gave birth to some intimacy and friendship.

Lian Wenchu and Peng Chongxin don't say that their families are not too rich, but they are medium-sized families, and they will bring a scholar with them when they go out, and they are not ready to change their clothes with them. Naturally, Qiu Chen took out two sets of changing clothes prepared by Lin Xujunshu and others, and picked out two sets of the same bamboo-blue Songjiang muslin cloth and let the two of them change. Along with the colored turban, indigo silk silk, matching blue purse, platform shoes and woven cotton socks, it is also very well prepared.

When the refreshments and fruits were removed here, and the cold dishes were served, and then the hot dishes were replaced, Junwen Junshu and Lian Wenchu, and Lian Wenchu's friend Peng Chongxin finally bathed in hot soup, and drank hot ginger soup to dispel the cold...... Qiu Chen was not at ease, and asked the girl to take out the pills for the prevention and treatment of wind and cold, dissolved in the water and let Junwen and Lian Wenchu eat it, seeing that the faces of several people were blue and white, and their spirits were sufficient, and they did not look sluggish, so they relieved themselves and released a few people to participate in the banquet.

The rest of the people were somewhat left out, but some of them reacted quickly, and immediately changed their ways and made friends with Ah Fu and Lin Xu on an equal footing. Lin Xu and Ah Fu had seen the faces of these people before, and they couldn't afford to make friends at this time, but they weren't too cold, and just dealt with it with a smile.

Lin Xu and Xiang Dacheng have seen each other.

This person is very comfortable, Ah Fu immediately smiled and introduced Lin Xu to him: "This is my second uncle, the name is a Xu word!" ”

Xiang Dacheng arched his hand and said without humility: "It's easy to say!" "I'm not surprised by Ah Fu's self-reported surname 'Lin', either I've heard of it before, or I just don't care about it.

Ah Fu arched his hand with a smile and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Brother Pu." Xiaoru is young, and I hope to give Brother Park more guidance in the future! ”

This kind of look and attitude is quite easy to accept, even if others are a little arrogant, straightforward and almost straightforward, it is not offensive.

"Haha, I am a person from Yuncheng, Shanxi, with a surname, a big name, and a simple word." Xiang Dacheng's big face plate was full of unfeigned joy, his slightly dark skin and beard made his appearance look quite vicissitudes, but his eyes were clean and calm like a baby, and he did not have the slightest contempt for Shang Afu, a teenager, nor because of the sycophancy brought out by the identity of the eldest prince of Jingbei Houfu, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was very bold and righteous and open-minded and respectful.

Ah Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, naturally accepted this favor, and arched his hand with a smile: "I don't know what this brother is called?" ”

One sentence successfully shut up those few people, and they didn't dare to speak ill of them at this time, but they threw this good and bold brother one by one with cold and fierce eye knives.

However, the person who had just opened his mouth to ask directly was very arrogant, almost unaffected, and saw that the flattery and sycophancy of several people were really disgusting, and he waved his hand impatiently: "If the brothers admire the Marquis of Jingbei, they will go over there to talk...... is chattering like this, where there is still a little bit of young talent, it can catch up with the old lady with a broken mouth! ”

A few people who were a little arrogant and arrogant just now, most of them lost their arrogance at this time, and flattered Ah Fu, the 'eldest prince of Jingbei Houfu', and said a string of sycophants like money, and said that Ah Fu was embarrassed, and at first he smiled and humbled a few words, and gradually became a little impatient, and even worried.

After confirming Qin Zheng's true identity, the expressions, words and deeds of several people changed very subtly.

An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to deal with the powerful, which made me unhappy! After all, it is rare for Li Bai to be arrogant and uninhibited. Although these people have read poetry books for more than ten years, their talents are still too far behind the poet fairy Li Bai, and they have no talent to rely on, let alone be free and easy.

Now, the characters in the eyes of this cloud actually made them bump into each other by mistake, and they were also entertained by others, and sat down with the eldest son of the family to dine...... Does this mean that they can climb to the sky in one step?

Of the eight of them, only three are from Beijing, and the other five are students who came to Beijing to take the exam from other places and were stranded in Beijing for various reasons. Even the three people in the capital are just the children of ordinary people, although they live in the capital, they don't have much contact with the rich and noble families of the official eunuchs on weekdays, not to mention the Jingbei Marquis Mansion for a while, in their eyes, it is a character in the eyes of the clouds, and they dare not look up to it on weekdays. After all, if you raise your head too high, your neck hurts!

As a result, the expressions of these people inevitably had momentary apprehension and nervousness, and then they couldn't help but feel some joy.

There are these two triumphant return to the city with the experience of entering the city, but anyone who caught up in the capital at that time, whether it was a person in the capital or not, most of them have seen Qin Zheng, the Marquis of Jingbei, although Qin Zheng was wearing armor and helmets twice, but he did not put his face armor, and his facial features could still be seen...... What's more, that momentum without anger and graceful bearing, Qin Zheng's recognition is still very high. It's not strange that this person can tell Qin Zheng's identity in one mouth. Ah Fu didn't have many surprises, and he didn't try to hide anything, and he generously admitted it.

Qin Zheng triumphed in the southern expedition last winter and entered the city in armor, attracting countless people to watch and welcome. If you are a person from the capital, go back a few years, and the triumphant class teacher who returned to Beijing in the northern Xinjiang is even more high-spirited and a young hero, but anyone who has seen the street parade in armor will never forget the black-clothed and black-armored, riding a black war horse, and looking like a jade and imposing like a rainbow in the whole of his life.

The person who asked a little wryly smiled and said, "It was far away before, and I didn't recognize it, but I saw Ling Zun just now...... What, when I went to Donglingzun to return triumphantly, I was fortunate enough to see it once. ”

Several other people were stunned when they heard this.

Ah Fu was not surprised, and smiled slightly: "Exactly!" ”

After a short distance from Qin Zheng, the group of people sat down, and then they breathed a sigh of relief, and one of them wiped the sweat on his forehead and asked Ah Fu in a low voice: "Brother Xiaoru, dare to ask if the mansion is the Jingbei Hou Mansion?" ”

"That's it. Since he is the brother of filial piety, he doesn't have to be polite, just treat it as his own family! Qin Zheng's tone was already as kind as possible, but none of those people could relax, so he reluctantly lowered his hand and agreed, and then he waved it one after another, and then Ah Fu led him and walked over to the low table where he started.

Qin Zheng turned his head with a calm face, and those people subconsciously felt that their spines were tight, and they didn't dare to look at each other, so they leaned over and bowed deeply.

Lin Xu followed Ah Fu and didn't speak, and when he arrived at the chief, Ah Fu respectfully bowed to the ground: "Father, these brothers come to salute!" ”

Naturally, everyone will not refuse, eat other people's food, and meet their parents is also appropriate.

Ah Fu led everyone to the first seat, and said, "The boy will take you brothers to meet your father!" ”

Lin Xu and Ah Fu led a few people around, and Qin Zheng and the others were already seated.

Those people looked at each other, whispered a few words to Lian Wenchu and the supporter, quickly turned around, arched their hands towards Lin Xu and Junshu and the others, and followed Lin Xu and Junshu towards the lake. There were already six or seven dwarfs over there, and now seven or eight people have been added, and only two dwarfs have been added.

When Lin Xu heard Hanguang say this, he smiled and patted Junshu, and arched his hand towards Lian Wenchu's companions: "Brothers, since this is the case, please come here!" ”

After Chengying finished speaking, Hanguang smiled and said to Lin Xu, Ah Fu and others, as well as Lian Wenchu's companions: "It's enough for the two cousins and these two sons to go in to bathe and change their clothes, you still have to come with the slaves, the water banquet has been prepared here, Mrs. said, please don't be polite." ”

When Chengying and Hanguang heard this, they hurriedly bowed to Lian Wenchu, and Chengying smiled slightly: "The slaves and maids thanked Lian Gongzi for saving him on behalf of our wife...... I already knew it just now, even the son asked the slave to come with the slave maid ......"

"There are two sisters!" Junwen thanked him, and then turned around to introduce Lian Wenchu next to him, "This brother went into the water to save me......"

As he spoke, he hurriedly greeted two sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls from the courtyard, and when he saw Junwen's wet body and pale face, he couldn't help but be taken aback, but he calmed down in an instant, and hurriedly beckoned Junshu to help Junwen enter the door: "Young Master Cousin, this is ...... Come in, Madame just got the letter, so she asked people to boil hot water and boil ginger soup. ”

Junwen turned around after saluting and bowed to the few people who were invited, "Brothers, please!" ”

Those who were invited over, the moment Qin Zheng's gaze swept over his body, they all had a feeling of sweat hair standing up for a moment, and their whole body was almost stiff for a moment, and they almost forgot to move and forget to breathe. This man is terrifying. All the hearts of the people thought in unison.

At the gate of the small courtyard, Qin Zheng didn't come forward to ask, but just looked at the group from a distance of five or six zhang, Junwen bowed to Qin Zheng from afar, Qin Zheng nodded with a gentle expression, and then turned back.

Junshu took a step forward, supporting Junwen, who was also a little cold and shivering, and Lin Xu, Ah Fu and others also followed.

Junwen's heart was relieved, and he gestured sideways, leading a few people to the side of the courtyard.

The men looked at each other and finally nodded in agreement.

Junwen pushed Junshu away, handed the flower boat in his hand to Junshu to hold, and then leaned over with his hand deeply, and said sincerely: "Brother Lian is not in good condition, if you hesitate any longer, I am afraid that the cold evil will penetrate into the bones and cause a serious illness...... The original intention of Brother Lian was to help me, and I should express my admiration a little...... I hope that the brothers don't hesitate, even the brother situation can't afford to delay! ”

After all, it was a meeting in Pingshui, and then looking at the people of the Jingbei Hou Mansion who were dressed in rich clothes and guards, and there were groups of guards and servants, they looked like a powerful family, and they were so presumptuous to go up to disturb them, and they were slightly hesitant.

Junwen also felt cold on his body, seeing Lian Wenchu like this, he was really worried, supported by Junshu, and said in a loud voice: "I see that Brother Lian is more cold, you must do your best to change out of wet clothes, and it is best to drink a bowl of hot ginger soup to ward off the cold...... I can take a bath and change clothes here, and it is also convenient to boil a bowl of ginger soup, so you brothers might as well help Brother Lian in and slow down. ”

After leaving the water, even Wen Chu was even more cold and shivering, his face became more and more blue, his lips were a little bruised, his legs were a little difficult to walk, he was stiff, he was a little dragging and stumbling...... His companion came over and took Lian Wenchu from Junwen's hand, and even Wenchu's teeth stiffened when he saw it, and he couldn't say goodbye when he turned his eyes and wanted to say goodbye to Junwen.

Even Wen Chu's companions, Junshu Afu and others rushed up and asked.

The two men were talking, and they had already walked to the shore.

Junwen said with a smile: "I am from Anyang in the south of the country. My aunt lives in Beijing, and I came to visit her at the behest of my parents. ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Junwen and asked, "Brother Yang just said that he is not from the capital, dare to ask where your hometown is?" …… Those are Brother Yang's family? ”

Lian Wenchu shuddered and smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, where is the early come, I caught up with the first subject in the next, but I was caught a cold when I tried it, and I couldn't refer to it...... The return trip was thousands of miles away, and it was not easy to travel, so I simply repaired the book and went home to inform my parents, and then lived in the capital, waiting for the next subject reference. ”

Junwen was slightly surprised and asked, "There are still two years to take the test, and Brother Lian arrived in the capital so early?" ”

Lian Wenchu nodded again and again, trying to pull away a smile, but he could only tremble twice, and stumbled: "In ...... In the Xia Nai Jingchu people, and classmates made an appointment to enter Beijing to take the exam......"

As he walked, Junwen smiled and said, "I don't hear my brother's accent from the capital?" ”

He saw it just now, because the water temperature was still very low, Lian Wenchu was already pale after soaking in the water for a while, and his lips and eye sockets were blue, and then let him swim back by himself, who knows if there will be a problem......

The two of them were relieved after the ceremony, and couldn't help but look at each other and laugh, Junwen took a step forward, reached out and patted Lian Wenchu's shoulder, and when Lian Wenchu was stunned and didn't come back to his senses, Junwen reached out and grabbed one of his arms, tiptoed to the bottom of the lake, and walked to the shore step by step.

The two young people didn't have any deep hatred, and the little disgrace before was instantly relieved in this joke.

The young man smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he was also free and easy, and then he also arched his hand: "It turned out to be Brother Yang, I have seen Brother Yang at the beginning of the next Lianwen!" ”

As he spoke, Junwen bowed to the young man, and said with a smile: "Yang Junwen, thank you for the rescue!" ”

At his shout, Junwen was slightly stunned and then suddenly, a smile brighter than the spring sun bloomed, and he said aloud to the young man: "Between the battle formations, you are not tired of deceit, and you are just cheating it." ”
