Chapter 11 If you don't struggle, how can you be at peace?

Mrs. Hou of Chongbei lives in the main courtyard of the Hou Mansion, named Qinghe, located in the center of the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

So, when the sedan chair landed, Lan Jiayin also knew the latest news, due to the heavy snow for three days and three nights, the Bizhu Lake in the garden has been frozen, and the first ice hockey game of this year will also be fought in Chongbei Houfu!

The founding ancestor of this dynasty, who was born as a military general in the previous dynasty, competed in the world after the world, and he won the world on horseback, which is the most advocating force.

Although the Great Zhou Dynasty has been founded for 112 years and has experienced five emperors before and after, because of the legacy of the Holy Ancestor and the legacy of the Empress Dowager Minhui, she still performs martial arts in spring and hunts in autumn every year.

And the folk customs of the capital have also been civilized, compared with the south where the legacy of the previous dynasty is heavier, the small life of the northern princess is called a relaxed and comfortable life.

Basically, as long as you don't have a tryst with a man alone in private, or someone is caught in the room, you won't be gossiped about.

Like the Hou Mansion today, the women's poetry club and the men's ice hockey game are held at the same time, which is a common thing in the capital.

However, with Liu Hongshan here, even if the gauze tent is the thinnest one, otherwise, it will affect the Hongying County Lord to watch the event, who can afford this crime?

Thinking of the colorful flags fluttering for a while, the lively sound of the people, Lan Jiayin was like a dream, and he recalled the grand occasion countless times in his previous life, and he had to reappear in front of him, and his heart was really mixed.

I couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity that my brother can't come, he actually likes these far more than he likes to read, and my cousin can also think that he is now holding the sage book and reading hard, it's just that he doesn't want his father to be disappointed, but he has annihilated his nature."

Lan Jiayin felt that if he let his eldest brother break free from the shackles and concentrate on practicing martial arts, with his talent, he might not be able to become a young general of the three armies.

Just want this matter to be achieved, it is far more difficult than imagined, she privately tested her mother, to see if she can let her brother abandon Wen and follow the martial arts, and her mother asked with a wry smile: "As the eldest son of the left minister, do you think your brother has the right to choose?" ”

"Yes, in this world, who can act arbitrarily and make choices at will?" Knowing this, Lan Jiayin just can't let go, since God has given such a rare opportunity, if you don't do your best to struggle, who can you be worthy of?

Liu Hongshan and her were walking on the verandah, this one couldn't be idle for a moment, while naughtily teasing Brother Ying and thrush hanging under the porch, while laughing at her: "Yo, this seems to be my aunt's heart, right?" Why are you waiting for it? ”

Lan Jiayin glanced at her angrily, "He's my eldest brother, is it wrong for me to care about him?" ”

"That's right, that's right." Liu Hongshan's smile became brighter and brighter, "You are like this now, my grandmother doesn't know how happy she is, she praises you all day long for being sensible and enlightened, and says that you are all blessed by the Bodhisattva." ”

"It's just that Cousin Xu is not an ordinary person, his uncle is in charge of his business, and it's useless for the rest of the people to think about it."

"There is only a small amount we can do, well, if we tell you that I begged Seventh Brother to let him personally pick up Cousin Xu and Cousin Sen, would you be happier?"

Lan Jiayin was overjoyed when she heard this, "This is really good! I knew that my cousin still loved us the most, and my brother must be very happy to come. ”

His cousin Cheng and Cousin Shan are compatriots of the same mother, and they serve as the captain of the sixth rank in the left guard battalion beside the saint.

Unlike Liu Yunpeng's White Tiger Camp, Liu Yuncheng can take a day off when he is on a two-day errand, and it is really suitable for him to go to Taixue to pick up people with a lot of free time.

Lan Jiayin's mood has improved, and she really hopes that her father can be as enlightened as her grandfather.

If you don't die to study, you will be less affected by those dogmas, and think of my brother's mother-in-law and mother in the future, who is tied to her hands and feet, and loves and mud the most

She really can't wait to pack up the people and throw them directly to the north to cut down the barbarians, at least she is a man, isn't she?

Liu Hongshan looked at her for a while, annoyed for a while, and happy for a while, knowing where her cousin's illness was, she paused and whispered in her cousin's ear: "Look at you so pitiful, cousin will tell you one more thing." ”

"After the last time we talked at night, I went to tell the eldest brother about your careful thoughts, so since ten days ago, the eldest brother has secretly asked people to meet Cousin Xu every day."

"I heard the eldest brother say, Cousin Xu should be our child, what to teach can be learned, much stronger than the seventh brother, and only the fifth uncle's brother Hui can compare."

Lan Jiayin's eyes lit up, and she suddenly felt that she was stingy, she knew that Cousin Shan was helping like this, and she should have given her that set of jade books, but now that she gave it to her grandmother, her cousin is used to coming over to mess around, but she can get the light.

"Good sister, I brought a set of jade books from the previous dynasty to my grandmother today, and I will soak the goldfinch tongue for you to drink later." The way she flatters her cousin is so cute.

Liu Hongshan, who already loves tea, nodded again and again, and the speed of her feet increased significantly, and she arrived under the porch of the main house after a while.

There were several maids waiting there for a long time, and when they saw the figure from afar, they sang happily, "Old lady, Miss Biao is here." ”

Saying that, he quickly lifted the curtain, "The maid asked Miss Cousin to say goodbye, why did you come?" But I think our old lady is bad. ”

"You're sweet, Mom, get a reward." She has come a lot, these people have long been familiar, talking about this is the second-class maid next to the old lady, her name is Jade, and she is close to her master on weekdays, so she will be frozen at the door?

It must have been ordered to come, and sure enough, Jade followed into the door and spoke softly to Cai's mother, looking very familiar.

Lan Jiayin glanced at the bell, and saw that the little girl also leaned over to speak, and then she was surprised: "Hey, why did the screen at the door change again?" Hasn't it been a long time since it was changed? ”

I heard someone inside respond in a loud voice: "Hey, good daughter, come in first and then speak, it's cold outside." ”

Hearing the third aunt's loud urging, Lan Jiayin couldn't help tiptoeing, urging Jinzhu's hand to hurry up with his eyes, and quickly untied the cloak.

Inside the screen is a wide hall, and several bronze charcoal basins are burning in the corners, and the room is as warm as spring.

On the three-step high mahogany platform in the south, there is a three-screen Arhat couch that carves the crane Lingzhi, and on each side there is a pastel plum vase more than one person high, and a few small plans are four feet high, and there are three things on the stove and bottle, and the sandalwood that the old man is accustomed to burning.

On the wall behind him hangs a majestic 'Northwest Operation Map of General Dispatch', which adds a bit of majesty and majesty to the ground.

A graceful lady about fifty years old sat upright, and there were two middle-aged ladies sitting in Jindun beside her.

Mrs. Liu Mao, the wife of Chongbei Hou, was wearing a royal blue embroidered gold chrysanthemum cotton gown, with a goose yellow daffodil skirt, and a two-finger-wide peony flower on her forehead, decorated with a thumb-sized old pit glass species, emerald green as water, reflecting her complexion becoming more and more fair.

The narrow and bright phoenix eyes are very similar to Lan Jiayin, she beckoned to Lan Jiayin with a smile, "Hey, my grandmother's heart is here, come on, let my grandmother see, is she taller and beautiful again?" ”

Lan Jiayin smiled apologetically at the eight immortal tables on both sides of the hall, and pulled Liu Hongshan up to greet her grandmother, eldest aunt, and third aunt first.

"Okay, how can my family have so many courtesies? Sister Shan, help your cousin up, her legs are sore after squatting for a long time. After that, he hurriedly pulled Lan Jiayin, who had just stood up, to his side and sat down.

Mrs. Liu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "Look at Sister Yin'er's height, she hasn't grown much this year, and Sister Ling is about to catch up with her." ”

"But your mother is reluctant to give you food? Just move to our house, and my aunt will make you rose braised chicken, and you will be kept tall. ”

"It's the best if you can really move here, but how can Sister Hui be willing to do it?" The old lady looked at the baby on the tip of her heart intently, and suddenly had a flash of thought, and blurted out: "Hey, since Qinqing loves to eat rose braised chicken, and their cook can't make this taste, then just send the cook over, isn't it appropriate?" ”

When Mrs. Liu heard this, the smile that was still brilliant and joyful just now froze when she landed
