004 Grandmother
Speaking of the Anping Hou Mansion, the storyteller of the Jingzhao Mansion Teahouse can't finish talking about it for a few days and nights. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info time if you go back to thirty years ago, everyone in the capital knows that the old Marquis Anping is famous for his favorite concubine and wife, and the officials of the Yushitai at that time were impeached in a row, so he lost the title of marquis and was demoted to Anpingbo. This old marquis is an old fritter, he didn't learn when he was young, he didn't learn all the skills, he fought cocks and walked birds to visit the flower building all day long, but he was the only son, and the title of the Hou Mansion could only be given to him. Later, he married the girl of the Feng family in Nanyang, who was a scholar, and accepted the top brand of "Tianxianglou" as a concubine within half a year, and spent a lot of silver. With the old lady's favor, Chang's family has laid down most of the inner courtyard of the Anping Marquis Mansion. gave birth to a son Fu Zhongde and a daughter Fu Wan, and later Fu Zhongde married his wife Wang and accepted He's, that Wang is a good child, with a son and two daughters, and He also has a daughter, this powerful Aunt Chang can be described as a house full of children and grandchildren. If it weren't for his poor background, it would be easy to find a wife.
Mrs. Feng only had one son in her life, Fu Muen, the word Haoyan, the eldest son of the previous uncle. It wasn't until later that the only son died in Yunzhou, and the emperor posthumously named Fu Muen as the Marquis of Anping, and rewarded the Feng family with a three-grade edict, which really attacked the lord and promoted him. In addition, the Empress Dowager has been passed down from time to time in recent years, and Mrs. Feng turned her hand over and covered the other half of the house in the Marquis of Anping, known as Mrs. Feng.
Although it is said that he has been promoted, the Hou Ye who is in charge is not there. Glory and wealth are impermanent, Jun En is limited after all, and the Anping Marquis Mansion is unstoppable after all, from the time when the old lady Fu was in charge, the old clan and the new upstarts have long looked down on the Anping Marquis Mansion, not to mention the ugly things that fell due to improper family style. In recent years, the in-laws have also been looking for them from the third and fourth classes, but fortunately, there are also scholars in the worse ones. Mrs. Feng values temperament and conduct the most, and Fu Manyan's deceased mother Zhuo is a quiet and quiet lady, and there is no need to say more.
Fu Manyan has been doing his homework openly and secretly after wearing it, but he has a lot of scruples, and he can't know everything about the migration of the Hou Mansion, but he just listened to the maid say two points and deduced two points from the details, and there are still many confusions about the Hou Mansion.
Fu Manyan slept soundly, and he just woke up naturally when the bell came. She had limited knowledge of ancient hairstyles, so she asked Muyu to comb a double bun. She looked at the bronze mirror, a little girl with clear eyebrows, except for feeling quieter, she couldn't see anything. Then I picked a moon-white spring shirt of the same color as the scarf and covered it, like a white and weak gardenia. Sure of her outfits, she took off her coat and let the bell hang up.
After the morning meal, Manyan asked the bell to call all the maids in the house. All five arrived.
"From now on, you all follow me to read, okay? It's going to grow in the future, so maybe I'll use it one day. A few maids knelt in a row, with gratitude written on their faces.
Man Yan immediately wrote five big characters on a piece of paper, and gave another person a piece of paper, "Heaven and Earth Monarch, recognize these five today, and you can usually write and draw on the ground." Then let them move the screens around and enjoy their own space.
The maids were worried about disturbing their masters, so they formed a circle near the door curtain, writing and drawing, and occasionally whispering to each other. Yesterday's branch was just used, and it caught everyone's eyes with a brushing of the dust, and the wooden fish bell was very affectionate to her.
When you concentrate, time flies, and before you know it, Manyan has been practicing for a full hour. When she came out of the backstage of the screen with her hand, Muyu went to sleep, and the others were busy with their own work, only the bell was still there.
Just after the Shen time, Man Yan tied the scarf button, put on a spring shirt, carried the bell to whisk the dust, and the three of them leisurely went to the Songhe Hall, the garden was full of flowers, and the spring was pleasant all the way. After walking for more than a stick of incense, as soon as she arrived outside the gate of Songhetang, a little girl ran in to report, "Old lady, the third lady is here." ”
Then a big girl came out, and the bell called, "Hello Sister Chunxi." Chunxi smiled, grabbed Manyan's little hand, and was very affectionate. It's coming, and the old lady is looking forward to it. ”
As soon as he crossed the threshold, Man Yan ran a few steps and knelt on the carpet, "Grandmother, granddaughter is not filial, I hope grandmother will be forgiving." ”
"Poor boy, what's wrong with you, come here. The body is not well yet, so what do you come to ask for? There was a hint of softness in his loud voice.
Man Yan staggered to the soles of the old lady's feet, and raised her head to see clearly that this was an old woman with a very dignified appearance. He is about in his early fifties, wearing a thin winter jacket, combing neat oily hair, and only a white jade hairpin is inserted in his bun. There are fine lines at the corners of the eyes and mouth, the skin is slightly loose, and the eyelids are slightly drooping. Only a pair of eyes are exceptionally clear and full of righteousness. There seems to be a faint line above the eyebrows, and the eyebrow bone is slightly raised, which should be caused by the usual frowning. She let go of the armrest of the rosewood carved chair and bent down to take Fu Manyan into her arms.
Man Yan's heart was stirring, no one had ever hugged him like this. She held her head high, a look of admiration. "Grandmother knows how I survived." As he spoke, his eyes widened and he blinked slowly, "I remember walking on a dark road in a daze, my body fluttering, and there was no one on the road. Until I saw the three words of the ghost gate, I suddenly heard you calling me, Yan'er, Yan'er. One by one, they cried out and were particularly anxious. Then I woke up and ran to the other end of the road. Then I woke up. ”
The old lady took the towel in Chunxi's hand and dipped it in her eyes, and Mama Fang on the side also rolled up her sleeves to wipe her tears, "The third lady is really blessed." ”
When my granddaughter woke up, she thought that she would cherish herself and be filial to her grandmother in the future. I also want to grow up quickly and help my grandmother relieve her worries. This way, you won't have to work so hard in the future. Man Yan raised his head and choked in a low voice, "With my grandmother here, I can live a good life." ”
The old lady was stunned for a long time, and when she came back to her senses, her eyes immediately turned red again. "My smoke, good boy. Your father exchanged his life for the wealth of the Anping Marquis Mansion, and your mother is gone, but the old bones of grandmother can always protect you. In the future, our ancestors will depend on each other, and no one can bully you. ”
Hearing this, Fu Man's tears welled up like a fountain, and he couldn't help crying. It seems to cry out the grievances and feelings of helplessness in the previous life, the dark despair, every time I feel abandoned by the world, when I am hungry all day, when I am sick and scolded to take care of other children in the orphanage, when I don't do well in the exam and worry about being scolded by my adoptive parents, all those tears that have not flowed finally find an outlet at this moment.
The maids and mothers-in-law all wiped their tears, and Songhetang suddenly burst into tears.
The old lady stroked Manyan's hair and sighed in a low voice, "How good would it be if we Yan'er were a man?" ”
Mama Fang stepped forward and persuaded, "Don't be sad, old lady, the third lady is sensible, this is a good thing." You should be happy. Now, your body can't stand the joy and sorrow. ”
After Fu Manyan cried, his heart was much more relaxed, he wiped away his tears with the back of his hand, and looked at Mama Fang. "Is grandmother sick, what is it?"
"The old lady has had a little cough in the past two days, and Dr. Zhang said that she was infected with spring cold, coupled with long-term liver depression and qi stagnation, she always said that she was weak in the past few days."
"Grandmother, shall I give you medicine? You sit on top of that, that soft. Man Yan pointed to the Luohan bed not far away, "Is the medicine still warm?" ”
Mama Fang hurriedly handed over the medicinal porcelain bowl that was drying, "It's just right." ”
The medicine spoon trembled and moved to the old lady's mouth, the eyes of the grandfather and grandson were moist, and Fu Manyan suddenly felt a strange happiness. It turns out that this is how relatives feel. Can be trusted, can be relied upon. After feeding the medicine, she hugged the old lady on the cheek and kissed it violently, and both of them broke into laughter.
"This girl is really weird."
"I'll be your personal elf from now on." Fu Manyan was triumphant and shook his head from side to side twice.
Laughter spilled all over the room.
