Chapter 357: Is Ah Qing Worthy of Your Grievances?
What the pomegranate tree represented, she still didn't know.
You must know that the women of the Yongqing Dynasty embroidered the quilt and belly pocket before marriage, the gold and silver nude seeds, and the carved lacquered woodware, and the most patterns are pomegranate flowers and pomegranate fruits, because this means "many sons and many blessings". Once a woman gets married, isn't having children a top priority?
He Qingdong was amused by her embarrassment, leaned over and stole a kiss at the corner of her lips, and asked softly: "You say, how many children will we have in the future?" ”
"Huh?" He Wei was stupid and at a loss.
Pretty faces rose again because they remembered the fact that they hugged each other and slept last night.
The small appearance was rare, and He Dashao couldn't help but want to rub her cheeks again.
It's a pity that it was ruined by the round children's shoes who also came out to visit the garden.
"Huh? Boss, sister, are you here too? I said, grandpa said you had already gotten up for breakfast, but I didn't see you in the house...... Wow! Grandpa didn't say that there are fish in the pond, boss, how about our fishing competition? This fish is quite fat......"
"Puff ......" He Wei couldn't hold back a smile when she saw the helpless and speechless expression of Captain He.
"You," He Qingdong pinched the tip of her little nose, and then patted her buttocks gently: "Go in and drink some water, the sun is starting to get hot, don't come out of the house, I'll go back with Yuanyuan to fish for a while." ”
Only then did he realize that he seemed to have ruined the boss's good deeds, and he laughed twice and ran to get fishing gear.
He Wei went back to the house to drink a glass of water, made a pot of herbal tea for the two fishing brothers, and washed a plate of grapes. sent it to them, and originally wanted to stay to watch them fish, but He Qingdong was afraid that her white and tender skin would become red and tanned. I coaxed her back into the house. Xiao Nizi is not like him, no matter how tanned her dark complexion is, she can't get anywhere. As for the little cousin, hmph, he brought up the fishing, and he cried when he got a tan. Besides, what are boys doing in such vain, what? Tanned or not? Then bask in the sun a little longer.
He Wei returned to the house crying and laughing.
I saw the old man sitting in the living room admiring the purple sand tea set sent by Hu Hui yesterday. I couldn't help asking, "Grandpa, do you want to make tea?" ”
The old man pointed to the bottles and cans on the coffee table, and said with a smile: "I heard Ah Qing say that you like to drink tea." Oh, grandpa's treasures have been taken out, you choose by yourself, which one you like, let's soak which. ”
He Wei's eyes lit up. The old man's treasure. That must be all good, bent his eyebrows, brushed his non-existent sleeves, and said happily: "Then I'll show my hand today and make a good pot of tea for grandpa." ”
The old man smiled heartily and said, "Medium! After soaking, grandpa asked you to choose a can, and it should be a reward for you. ”
"Then you're welcome." He Weile, who was admiring the tea leaves one by one. These are all treasures in tea, and money may not be able to buy them. The pottery shopkeeper can occasionally taste one or two kinds, and it is also very happy. I didn't expect that the old man would have seven or eight kinds of shots here, and there were quite a few of them.
Good tea in hand. He Wei didn't hide it anymore, after washing her hands and face, she returned to the tea tray and brewed tea seriously.
Washing cups, dropping tea, brewing tea, scraping foam, washing tea, making tea, scalding pots, pouring tea, ordering tea......
The flowing tea art made the old man smack.
He is a big and rough one, how can he know what tea art and tea ceremony, he usually likes to drink tea, but he just puts the tea leaves in the teapot, and then rushes to boil the water, and drinks it leisurely, how can he know so many ways.
Speaking of which, this ebony tea tray was bought by his twin grandsons to honor him on his sixtieth birthday, but it was placed on the coffee table for so many years, and the only thing that really played its role was today, and the old man didn't want to sigh more in his heart.
"Grandpa, drink tea!"
He Wei smiled and held a delicate purple sand tea cup and pulled back the distracted old man.
"Hey, good, good!" The old man received it in his hand, first sniffed it, then squinted comfortably and took a sip, and then drank it all and praised: "Good tea!" ”
The same tea leaves she brewed were clearer and mellower than his coarse drinking method.
Seeing this, He Wei added a cup to him with a pot, and then poured herself a cup, holding the teacup and taking a sip.
"I don't see it, you girl is quite good at enjoying it." The old man saw her comfortable appearance when she was tasting tea, and asked with a narrow smile: "Aqing, that kid shouldn't understand these ways, is he wronged by being with you?" ”
He Wei almost squirted tea with a "poof".
"Hahaha......" The old man stroked his legs and laughed, and continued to tease after laughing: "Grievances should not be, once the child is identified, it is called nothing to say when he gets better with people, but he has fewer interests and hobbies, but you can teach him." ”
"Grandpa!" He Wei hides her face.
I knew that I shouldn't perform the tea ceremony in front of the old man, which can be used by him to make fun of it, it's really disrespectful to the old man.
"Hahaha......"
The old man was smiling heartily, and Old Zheng brought a guest to He's house.
"Yo! Why are you so happy? ”
"Lao Zheng? Why do you have time to come over? Old Man He asked in surprise.
Zheng Weihua and he retired on the front and back feet, but because of physical reasons, they rarely go out and walk around. In a year, I only meet and have a meal with their group of retired old men for a few days, and at other times I take turns to recuperate at the sanatorium or at my children's house, so I can't be surprised to see him appear at home on days like dog days.
"What? Let's see if you don't allow it? Zheng Lao's physical condition has been good these days, and an old friend has come to the door, and his mood is also a lot more relaxed, "I knew you didn't recognize it, and I still thought about you." ”
"Xiao Chang?" Old Man He's eyes fell on the strange guests beside Zheng Lao, and after a few careful glances, he was really a little familiar, and after a while, he patted his thighs and remembered: "Chang Jianjun?" Chang Jianjun, who chased his daughter-in-law to Japan? ”
"Hey! I say, Big Brother must remember me! Chang Jianjun, who came with Zheng Weihua, smiled and hugged his fists: "It's me, Jianjun." "As for the embarrassing deeds of chasing my daughter-in-law to Japan, don't mention it.
An old friend who has been missing for 30 years came to the door. Old Man He was really excited.
"Alright, alright, sit down and talk. Anyway, I followed Jianjun to eat at your house today. Zheng Weihua smiled and joked, and when he saw He Wei silently pouring tea for them, he asked with a smile: "Lao He, this can't be the girl Lao Li and they said, right?" Is it really your daughter-in-law? ”
"It's still fake!" Old Man He glanced at him, straightened his chest clearly, and said, "My granddaughter-in-law can do it, do you see it?" She made this dress on me, and she just made the tea you drink. ”
"No wonder you smile so badly, it's really a good craft!" Zheng Lao took a sip of tea. Give a thumbs up to Hewei.
He Wei just brewed Jin Junmei, a type of black tea, which is fully fermented, so Zheng Lao can take a few sips. If it's green tea. He can't drink it anymore.
He was not in good health. Some tea can't be drunk, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to cook tea. On the contrary, when he was young, he was the best at this way, and he was well versed in this way, so seeing that He Wei was so proficient in tea, he ordered the accompanying guards to go home and fetch his treasured tea cakes.
"It's a gift I gave to Ah Qing's daughter-in-law. My dilapidated body, I don't know if I can survive until your family Ah Qing gets married. Give the meeting gift first, lest you call me stingy. ”
Old Man He pretended to be displeased and blew his beard and glared: "The meeting gift is just a pot of tea?" Isn't that stingy? ”
"Hahaha! You! Zheng Lao pointed at Old Man He and scolded with a smile: "What do you know! My tea. But it's rare to have a daughter, and you haven't drunk such a superb one. But then again, you don't know what good tea is when you drink it in your mouth...... Girl, you hide the tea and drink it yourself, don't brew it for Old Man He, give it to him to drink, it's cow drinking water, so good tea is wasted. ”
These words are like a cannon battle, burning at one point, the two retired old military commanders who are almost old and old, stalked their necks and counted each other's shortcomings, and He Wei was worried for a while, lest they quarrel and fight.
In the end, he was persuaded by Chang Jianjun: "I said two big brothers, your relationship is still good day by day." ”
The older I get, the more I love to sing the opposite, and when I heard the quarrel, I came to the conclusion that "the relationship is good", the two old men stopped arguing, one continued to hold a cup to taste tea, and the other held a fruit fork and ate the chef's newly cut watermelon and melon.
"Anyway, do you know what Jianjun did when he returned to China this time?" After a few sips of tea, Zheng Lao turned to the topic.
"What for?" Old Man He tasted the Hong Kong-style dim sum that the chef had just made, and thought it tasted good, so he pushed it to He Wei: "Girl, eat this, this is delicious." ”
Seeing this, Zheng Lao rolled his eyes indecently, and said in his heart Lao Li They are really not wrong, Old Man He is very satisfied with this eldest grandson and daughter-in-law who has not yet passed the door, it seems that the old He family is just around the corner to hold his great-grandson.
"I said, Lao Zheng, can you just say something and let it go if you have a fart? It's a deliberate attempt to whet people's appetite without saying a word at the beginning, right? ”
was pulled back to his senses by Old Man He's loud voice, and Old Man Zheng smiled: "You have a stinky temper, you really can't change it for the rest of your life." ”
"What do you do with it?" Old Man He snorted disapprerovingly: "Lao Tzu is not as awkward as Old Man Hu, who eats this and makes up for that, commands the juniors around, just to live a few more years...... Lao Tzu lived to be seventy years old enough, and his temper is like this, if he gets along, if he doesn't get along, let's break up. ”
"You!" Zheng Lao smiled and shook his head.
But then again, such an old man He is familiar to him, if he really changes to a temperament like Lao Hu, the first person who can't stand it may be himself. Lao Hu, in order to maintain his body, can focus on losing his family, and forget about losing his family, and let the juniors under him search for rare supplements all over the country, what alpine snow lotus, golden silk blood swallow...... Tsk, it's a toss-up. No wonder Lao He couldn't get used to him, and as soon as the two met, they quarreled endlessly with their hair standing up like cocks. I can't even stand it myself, let alone the upright old He.
Thinking about it this way, Zheng Lao no longer surrounded Old Man He's temper and persuaded him, instead of persuading him to be like Lao Hu, it was better to be like this now, so he turned to business: "Jianjun came back this time with his daughter-in-law to be a judge." Do you know the shop opened by Lao Gu's precious grandson? Every three years, an industry PK competition will be organized, and this year's competition, the Japanese side also participated, saying that no matter what, they want to win a championship and go back, kill the prestige of our China, and publish this news in the Japanese bulletin......"
In the early days, the ridicule newspapers and periodicals that were specifically aimed at China have been somewhat restrained, but their political influence is still very great.
"So I wondered, although we are retired, why can't we sit idly by and wait for things involving the dignity of the country? Powerful to contribute, not able to come up with ideas, Lao He, what do you say? ”
Old Man He plucked out his ears: "What? Are you talking about the embroidery PK competition held at BGI? Isn't it just an ordinary industry competition? Is it so serious? Weiwei is still one of them, and she will go to the opening ceremony in the afternoon......"
This time Zheng Lao and Chang Jianjun were surprised.
"What kind of eyes are you?" Old Man He said angrily: "Let me tell you, Wei Wei is capable, she played in the PK competition three years ago, and she also helped Yuxiu Pavilion win a championship and come back." This time, Lao Gu's grandson also invited her to come, so she is here, even if she puts a hundred and twenty hearts. ”
He Wei was embarrassed when she heard it, is the old man too confident in her? still put a hundred and twenty hearts, and she herself didn't have such great confidence.
Chang Jianjun was even more surprised when he heard this: "Big brother, what you said is true?" ”
"What are you lying to you!"
Zheng Lao came back to his senses, stroked his palms and smiled: "According to this, there is still hope to win this year's competition?" ”
Without waiting for Old Man He to speak, Old Man Zheng continued: "The opening ceremony will be held in the afternoon, Lao He, you want to go to the scene to see it, right?" Let's go together. Jianjun, since your daughter-in-law is a judge, she must know something, you tell the girl about it, so that she can be prepared. Let's go to China, we can't let Xiao Riguo steal the limelight. ”
"I'm going to accompany the girl, but Lao Zheng, you better forget it, you have a ...... bones" Old Man He frowned and looked Zheng Lao up and down, what if he fainted at the opening scene?
"What? Look down on me? Zheng Lao glared and said, "I still want to go." ”
"Hey I said you'......"
"Okay, I don't need you to worry about my body, you better let the cook prepare a few more dishes." Zheng Lao interrupted, and when he saw that his guard was back, he took the tea gift box he took, handed it to He Wei, and said with a smile: "Oh! Grandpa Zheng's greeting gift to you. Seeing that you are quite proficient in the tea ceremony, you should also like this tea. ”
"That's right! Sensei was polite to him, just accept it. Old Man He interjected on the side.
"Thank you, Grandpa Zheng, then I'm welcome."
He Wei accepted the tea, thinking that she would go back and prepare a gift for Zheng Lao, seeing that he was not in good health, and he still ate and drank it, because I don't know if it will clash with each other, or be like Old Man He, make a Tang costume, and add a few sachets to calm the nerves and help sleep. Well, that's it! (To be continued......)
