Chapter 30: Night Visits
Zheng Guogong put down the tea bowl in the small study and shouted into the air: "Huawen...... Where is the old lady now! ”
A little scholar came out of nowhere, and said with a smile: "Hui Ye, the old lady just came out of the Buddha Hall a quarter of an hour ago, and she is drinking tea in the Yanbo Pavilion at this time!" ”
Zheng Guogong bowed his head and waved his hand, the little scholar disappeared in an instant, and Zheng Guogong strode out of the small study and walked towards the Yanbo Pavilion!
Yanbo Pavilion is not a pavilion, Zheng Guogong's Mansion has three pavilions, three floors, three flower terraces, three pavilions are Yanbo Pavilion, Haomiao Pavilion, Tingtao Pavilion, respectively, three places around the water!
The old lady lives in the Yanbo Pavilion, the vast pavilion lives Zheng Guogong, and the Tingtao Pavilion used to live Zheng Guogong's sister-in-law Hua Yunsheng, but now people have entered the palace as concubines, and the house has been empty!
The third floor is Wangchun Building, Wangqiu Building, and Wangdong Building! As the name suggests, the third floor is the most pleasant place for the scenery in each season, Wangchun Tower is where Zheng Guogong's small study is located, Wangqiu Building has a stage, Wangdong Building is full of plum trees, before Hua Yunshang was still in the house, winter is here to do needlework, wine, sherbet and sherbet, it has become a small workshop of Hua Yunshang, and there is a flower room behind!
The three flower terraces are Yuhuatai, Chuxue Terrace and Luoying Terrace! It is three gardens with excellent scenery, the garden is suitable for playing and feasting all year round, but it is a pity that Zheng Guogong's Mansion has always been low-key, even Hua Yunsheng entered the palace, it is just a small constant, so many years, if it is not for the people of Guogong's Mansion who are still worried, others may not know that Zhengguogong's Mansion has a young lady in the palace!
After crossing the trestle bridge, Zheng Guogong saw the old lady standing under the flower tree with the servant woman beside him talking from a distance, stepped forward with a smile, and said softly: "My son came to say hello to his mother!" ”
Mrs. Tai looked at Zheng Guogong, the corners of her mouth curled, and said to Mama Du beside her: "My son, others don't know, I know best, if it weren't for something, I wouldn't have come over at this time, go and bring two plates of newly made bean paste rolls, and give Grandpa Guo a taste!" ”
Mama Du hurriedly saluted Zheng Guogong, bowed and retreated, retired from the little maid at the door, and guarded the door quietly!
Zheng Guogong looked at Mrs. Tai, a little regretful, and said softly: "Marry you a daughter-in-law and come back, talk to you!" ”
Mrs. Tai looked curious, and asked with a smile, "Do you have a favorite candidate?" ”
Zheng Guogong sighed and said softly: "Rong Guogong is here, he mentioned his third granddaughter, the son has seen it, and it is very quiet, but I rejected Rong Guogong!" ”
Mrs. Tai was slightly stunned, she didn't know what her son was making trouble about, she frowned and looked at her son, only to hear Zheng Guogong explain gently: "Isn't it rumored that there is a treasure map in Rongguo Mansion outside, just that batch of ...... It's time to be born, I thought about it, there is no more suitable family than the Rongguo Mansion! ”
Mrs. Tai asked suspiciously, "Then why did you refuse again?" ”
Zheng Guogong turned around, looked at the koi swimming happily in the water, and said with a smile: "Aren't marriages all such twists and turns, I found a suitable person another day, and I just came to propose marriage, but before that, I still have something to confirm, it is estimated that it is their family, so come and talk to your mother, you also have a number in your heart!" ”
Mrs. Tai sighed, looked at her son, who had grown older than other children since he was a child, and said softly: "You brothers and sisters all have big ideas, since you have thought about it, let's do it!" After speaking, he entered the inner room!
Zheng Guogong looked back at the lonely Mrs. Tai, and said in his heart: It's time to marry someone and come back to talk to his mother! Thinking of this, he turned around and walked out of the Yanbo Pavilion and returned to Wangchun Tower!
Mama Du sighed softly, returned to the room, and saw that Mrs. Tai was really sitting in front of the window in a daze, and hurriedly smiled and asked, "I made pine nut tortillas in the kitchen today, do you want to try them?" ”
Mrs. Tai smiled bitterly, shook her head, and said softly: "In the end, only you are the only one left with me, how did the kitchen remember to make that?" ”
Mama Du hurriedly smiled and said: "It's not that you haven't eaten much recently, Grandpa Guo looked anxious, saying that the cook invited from Goryeo is the best at barbecue, and the grilled fish is also good, and he said that he would give you a venison to eat at night!" ”
Mrs. Tai shook her head: "It's easy to get on fire in spring, what kind of venison to roast, let them grill a few fish, and make a few side dishes, the sweet and sour cucumber is quite refreshing, use that at noon, and prepare some millet porridge for me!" ”
Mama Du knew that Mrs. Tai was uncomfortable, and hurriedly persuaded: "You only used half a vegetarian bun in the morning, and then used it for lunch, I am afraid that I have no strength in my body, or ......" Mama Du still wanted to persuade again, Mrs. Tai had already said softly: "Other people's families choose daughters-in-law for their sons, they all look left and right, ask around, come to me, just say hello to me, I am useless to live, it is better to accompany the old man earlier!" ”
Mama Du listened sadly, and helped Mrs. Tai try her tears, but she didn't know what to say, but in the end she said: "I hope that the young lady chosen by Grandpa Guo will be filial to you!" ”
Mrs. Tai sighed, the two of them were relatively indifferent, and the quiet needle drop in the room could be heard!
Zheng Guogong returned to the small study, did not rest any longer, was practicing calligraphy, and the flower steward walked in with a list, and replied softly: "According to what you explained, it is not a big ornament, and about five hundred pieces have been selected!" After speaking, seeing that Zheng Guogong was still carrying the pen, he hurriedly put the booklet on the desk softly, he really didn't know much about this master, obviously he refused to get married, but he let himself prepare the bride price, and they were all objects that were taken out, I was afraid that they would cause trouble, thinking of this, the flower steward couldn't help but sigh, and heard an unusually cold voice asking: "What?" Have you been idle lately? ”
The flower steward was excited, and he was busy going to see Zheng Guogong, and saw that Zheng Guogong's subordinates were non-stop, but his body was extremely cold, and he knew Zheng Guogong's flower steward very well, and he knew that the master was on the verge of anger at this time, and he hurriedly bowed and retreated!
Zheng Guogong finished writing the last stroke, put away the pen, picked up the strategy and read it, threw it on the bookcase, glanced at the time of the clock in the southwest corner, strode out of the study, and walked towards the martial arts field!
People who know Zheng Guogong know that Zheng Guogong is ugly every day, and he must go to the martial arts field to practice boxing, rain or shine, seeing Zheng Guogong coming here, several guards who are practicing in the martial arts field are stunned, and they hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Zheng Guogong waved his hand and shouted: "Don't stop!" "Everyone is busy, go and practice!
Zheng Guogong punched a set, picked up the spear and danced for a while, the spear swept over, the strong wind made people can't help but be frightened, the guards gradually stopped, and watched Zheng Guogong walk the gun carefully, every move and style is natural! Let the guards with good kung fu look stupid!
Zheng Guogong put away his spear, swept around the guards, and strode out of the martial arts field!
When the guards saw that the sky was dark, they packed up their weapons one after another!
Zheng Guogong was still a little hesitant in his heart, practiced the gun, sweated, but he was very sure of his thoughts, took a hot bath, changed into a clean moon-white robe, looked at the venison on the table, Zheng Guogong only tasted one bite, drank most of the bowl of porridge, ate a small plate of cold bamboo shoots, and finally drank half a bowl of hot and sour soup!
Seeing that Zheng Guogong didn't eat venison, the flower steward guessed that it was probably unappetizing, their lord has been a little picky about eating since he was a child, and he hardly moved much, which is why Zheng Guogong's mansion changes cooks every few months!
Seeing that Zheng Guogong ate less, the flower steward was a little difficult, the old lady didn't use much, and the master didn't eat much, it seems that he was going to go around to inquire about the chef again, he couldn't figure it out, if Zheng Guogong was picky, he almost didn't leave the bamboo shoots, if he said that he was not picky, there were few things that could make him look twice, seeing that Zheng Guogong had already looked over, the flower steward hurriedly motioned to the little servant to take the meal down, and bowed forward and asked, "What kind of tea is the master drinking today?" ”
Zheng Guogong waved his hand and said softly: "I'll wait for a trip, I'll come back around the hour, if my mother has something to find me, just say that I have something, so she doesn't have to worry!" After saying that, he had already gone in and changed into a black outfit, and when the flower steward looked at it, he guessed that Zheng Guogong was going to travel at night, so he didn't ask anything, and hurriedly took a soft sword and handed it to Zheng Guogong, Zheng Guogong tied it neatly around his waist, and commanded in a low voice: "When you have time, count those boxes, and it won't be long before you can use them!" ”
The flower steward was frightened when he heard this, where did he have the time to think about anything else, so he hurriedly responded and retreated!
Zheng Guogong looked out the window, saw that the sky was already dark, flew out of the study, all the way out of Zheng Guogong's mansion, and ran quickly along the dark shadow of the alley, and within a quarter of an hour, he came to a high wall!
Seeing that there was no one around, Zheng Guogong lifted his anger and flew up to the wall, looked at the direction on the ground, hurriedly ran forward, all the way through the garden, walked across the small bridge, and no one found Zheng Guogong's whereabouts, Zheng Guogong sighed, he was just to hide people's eyes, but at this time he actually disliked the guards in the house, thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, seeing the dreamlike wisteria in front of him, Zheng Guogong was stunned for a moment, turned around and entered the house!
Seeing that there was only a faint candlelight in the room, Zheng Guogong quietly walked in!
As early as when she found that someone had broken in, Aunt Ying had already protected Yun Xiangrong, and when she saw Zheng Guogong walk in, both of them were stunned, and before Yun Xiangrong could see the person who came, she heard Aunt Ying's deep voice sound: "I don't know what is important for Zheng Guogong to break into the girl's boudoir?" ”
Yun Xiangrong thought of the frustration and pity when his grandfather came back, and he couldn't guess which one Zheng Guogong was making trouble!
Zheng Guogong obviously knew Yinggu, and he was really a little surprised to meet Yinggu here, but he quickly calmed down and said in a low voice: "I have something to say to the third lady, Mama will help guard the door!" ”
Ying Gu looked back at Yun Xiangrong with a suspicious face, Yun Xiangrong sighed, not wanting Ying Gu to misunderstand that she was giving private advice to others, so she hurriedly said: "Grandpa Guo has anything to say, I don't have anything to avoid Mama!" "Just kidding, Aunt Ying is the queen mother's person, Yun Xiangrong doesn't want the marriage to be successful, and her reputation is ruined!
Zheng Guogong looked at Yun Xiangrong in front of him coldly, the corners of his mouth curled, and he said softly: "In this case, then Mama Ying will stay!" After speaking, he was already sitting at the kang table.
Yun Xiangrong regretted a little, looking at Zheng Guogong's appearance, I am afraid that there will be nothing good to say next, just thinking about it, Zheng Guogong has already spoken: "It's a guest when you enter the door, don't you have tea?" After speaking, he picked up the tea bowl on the kang table and drank it alone!
