Chapter 42: Exchanges of Gifts (II)
"......" Jiang Wei didn't expect this person to be so shameless after not seeing him for a month, "Then I don't want your bookmark!" She felt that she couldn't be reasonable with this bear child, he didn't know what it meant to be embarrassed.
Zhao Heng said angrily: "No! "She dared not to have her own bookmark!
"Y-you're unreasonable!" Jiang was trembling with anger.
"Where am I being unreasonable, I used a ivory bookmark to exchange your rotten leaves, it's not reasonable enough?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt that he had never been so reasonable in his life.
"That's not a rotten leaf, that's a vein! A bookmark can take about ten days. Jiang Wei stubbornly guarded his precious bookmark, and refused to let him take it, these leaf veins took her and Ah Xi I don't know how much work, carefully selected from thousands of them, how could Jiang Wei let him lose them. After Jiang Wei made a ruined bookmark with his own hands, Lin Xi knew what to do, and a month later he brought thousands of leaves over for her to choose.
Zhao Heng twitched his brows, and seeing the fat girl's insistence, he took a deep breath, "You said this is a Ye Vein bookmark, right?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Wei saw him let go, and hurriedly pulled the bookmark over.
"Give it to me." Zhao Heng said with a gloomy face.
"What do you want to do?" Jiang Wei was afraid that he would burn his hard-earned fruits again.
"I'll make another one for you, you lost these rotten leaves to me!" Zhao Heng said patiently, "I'll make you more beautiful." ”
Seeing him like this, Jiang Wei knew that he would definitely not be able to keep these bookmarks, so he handed them over stupidly, and Zhao Heng said angrily: "I know what it means to be a seven-year-old different seat!" Don't mess around with Lin Xi every day in the future! "It is the etiquette of Confucianism to have a seven-year-old different seat, but the Confucian classics are far less respected than in the former Han Dynasty, and there is no so-called seven-year-old different table for men and women, not to mention that the Jiang family and the Lin family are still good at the same time.
"You're messing around with him every day!" Jiang Wei pushed him hard, "I'm going to read a book!" You go, you go! "This man is so unreasonable.
As long as Jiang Wei didn't say good things for Lin Xi, Zhao Heng's tolerance for her was still quite high, for example, at this time, she was rushing to the prince of Daqin, and no one was angry, "It's getting late, what book are you reading?" Beware of burning your eyes. Saying that, he took Jiang Wei's hand, "Aren't you sleepy?" I'll take you for a few laps. Fat enough, do you still want to be ugly? ”
Jiang Wei's mouth trembled, and the profound lessons of many years told her that she can't reason with people with poisonous tongues and smart tongues, because they will want to make you depressed to the point of wanting to commit suicide, and you can only take simple and rude measures against people with deep brain grooves! But this person is the crown prince Jiang Wei took a deep breath, withdrew his hand, and snorted, "Men and women are not kissed, and the seven-year-old is not the same, so I don't want to go to the garden with you." With that, he left him alone in the study.
Zhao Heng said angrily: "You fat girl who doesn't know what to do!" But he kept chasing after him, "Okay, I don't say you're ugly, okay?" Zhao Heng remembered what Li Shijiu had said to him, to coax girls, and never say anything like they were ugly.
Jiang Wei walked forward without saying a word, completely blocking Zhao Heng's words.
Mrs. Wang, Shen Qin, Xie and Yan had also come back at this time, and they were talking to Xie about the situation in Xifu, "Grandma, Auntie, Auntie, Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law." Jiang Wei came in and saluted everyone.
When Zhao Heng came in, everyone got up and saluted him.
"Grandma doesn't have to be polite." Zhao Heng helped Mrs. Wang up.
At this time, Jiang Ke, Jiang Ling, Jiang Lu and others also returned home, and after everyone saw Zhao Heng, they sat down to feed, Zhao Heng was of course on top, Jiang Wei led the little nephew to sit at the bottom, and the fat boy was very safe in the arms of the nurse. Zhao Heng just looked at Jiang Wei, and now the rotten leaves have been collected, the fat girl is not angry, His Royal Highness is in a good mood, he is very easy to talk, the atmosphere at the banquet is extremely harmonious, he has been staying at Jiang's house until it is almost dark before returning to the palace.
After the family sent Zhao Heng away, Mrs. Wang stretched out her hand and hugged the little granddaughter who was teasing her nephew in her arms and shook her kiss, "Ah Zhi met the brother-in-law of the Pei family today?" "When Jiang Wei was a child, no male elder would kiss her except Jiang Ling, and later when she turned three, she didn't even kiss Jiang Ling's daughter, but women don't have this restriction.
"Yes, the brother-in-law of the Pei family, Pei Erlang, and Pei Sanlang are all here." Jiang Wei said that she didn't struggle at all with Grandma's behavior of coaxing herself as a child. As a pseudo-Lori, Jiang Wei also wants to show her unique prodigy style, for example, like Jiang Yuanyi in the second room, she got a calm and moderate evaluation at a young age, but the external conditions are not enough, for example, as long as her parents see her, they will hold her in their arms and coax her as a child, if Jiang Wei is not resolutely opposed, I am afraid that now the family will carry themselves in and out. And her little cleverness and experience are really not enough to show off in front of her elders, anyway, her aunt and father are also not big personalities, and she simply let her nature go.
Jiang Wei determined that Jiang Yuanyi was a traverser like her half a year ago, but this traverser gave her a bit of a strange feeling, she didn't seem to know much about some things she should know in her time, but it was clear that she was a traverser again, and Jiang Wei didn't want to recognize her. In a strange place, two people with the same background may become good friends or enemies, Jiang Wei takes into account the background of the big house and the second room, and thinks that they have no possibility of becoming good girlfriends, so let's keep a gentleman's friendship.
"Your sister is not here." Mrs. Wang said.
"Not there." Jiang shook his head slightly, "What's wrong with Grandma?" ”
"Your cousin didn't go back to Xifu today." Mrs. Wang hugged her granddaughter and said, "It is said that the king of Kong County in Peifu is sick, and she wants to serve the sick." "Since the second lady of Xifu got married, except for the first time after marriage, she has not returned to Xifu so far.
"Sick? Then why are Pei Da, Pei Er, and Pei San still eating, drinking, and having fun in Lanhu? Jiang Wei was puzzled, his parents were sick, and his son went out to eat, drink and have fun, not to mention ancient times, even modern times.
"I think it's fake to be sick, it's true not to let Erniang go out." Shen Qin has always been unscrupulous when he speaks, "Ah Niang, didn't Uncle Xifu send someone to Pei Mansion to see Erniang?" She remembered that Xifu's uncle was still very close to this granddaughter.
"I've been there several times, and Erniang said that she was doing well in the Pei family, and the Pei family really didn't have anything bad, or maybe the Pei family didn't want Erniang to go out." Mrs. Wang said.
"Why?" Everyone couldn't figure out why the Pei family didn't allow Erniang to go out.
Jiang Wei recalled the scene of meeting the three Pei brothers today, "Maybe it's their tutor." Jiang Wei hesitated for a moment, and said implicitly, "I see that the brother-in-law of the Pei family is a very serious person. "When she didn't come to ancient times, Jiang Wei's impression of scholars was pedantic and powerless, but the scholars she saw completely subverted her impression, knowing that when she saw Pei Da, she felt that he was a bit like the ancient scholars in her impression, especially his undisguised contempt for himself, which made Jiang Wei a little unhappy, and his impression of him was also very low, and he didn't even have a little education. In addition to being violent when facing Zhao Heng, Jiang Wei gives people the impression of being well-behaved and polite most of the time, she was also to her parents and eldest brother in her last life, or they broke her heart, she is not so rude to outsiders, she hates people who don't know how to be polite.
Xie Ze groaned slightly, "Auntie, I remember that the Pei family has a chastity archway, right?" ”
Chastity archway? Jiang Wei looked at Xie Ze in shock, and didn't blame her for being surprised, but this term was too unfamiliar to her, she had been in ancient times for so long, she had never heard of a young woman around her who guarded her husband for the rest of her life, even after the death of the fourth cousin of Xifu, the fourth aunt remarried after three years of filial piety.
"You say that, I think of it, the Pei family does have a chaste archway, or the older generation, the woman is guarding the door and widow, and she has been guarding it for forty years." Mrs. Wang sighed, she had seen the woman, she was only in her early twenties at the time, looking at the human shape like a withered appearance, she felt shuddering, in a blink of an eye, the woman had been gone for more than 30 years, and the bones should have turned to ashes. When the second son died in battle, her future daughter-in-law also wanted to keep watch over him, but Mrs. Wang resolutely objected, this is not to fulfill her infatuation with the second son, but to ruin a girl's life.
"The Pei family thinks that a woman should be chaste, so they don't let Erniang go out, fortunately, Erniang is also quiet." Xie said.
Mrs. Wang nodded, "At the beginning, your uncle took a fancy to the Pei family, and it was also because the Pei family style was strict. "It makes sense when I think about it, and everyone doesn't care, every family has its own family style, and women have to learn to adapt to it if they are not used to marrying in. The family style also has the advantage of being strict, the Pei family is very quiet, and several Lang Jun are also decent people.
Shen Qin hugged his daughter and kissed him, "Ah Zhi, you said you found us a few tricks?" ”
"Yes, A-Niang." Jiang Wei has always been pressure-free about A-Niang's coquettishness, she leaned on A-Niang's arms and told what she had seen and heard today.
Shen Qin couldn't help but laugh when he heard that the three little girls could kick eighteen shuttlecocks: "This is really rare, Ah Zhi is really well-behaved, and when you go out to play, you know that you think about Ah Niang." ”
"Because I love A-Niang the most." Jiang Wei said that she was not simply coquettish, but added the family affection of two lifetimes to her father.
"A-Niang also loves A-Zhi the most." Shen Qin was moved to tears by her daughter, and the mother and daughter were tired of dying.
Mrs. Wang said, "Okay, don't be sticky with your mother and daughter, Ah Zhi is tired for a day, let her go back to the room to rest first." ”
Shen Qin took her daughter's hand and said with a smile: "Let's go, show A-Niang what good things you bought today." ”
"Okay." The mother and daughter laughed and went to Jiang Weifang's Zou Qiu.
Xie and Yan pursed their lips and smiled, their relationship with their mother is not bad, but it is far from the level of sister-in-law and everyone, the mother and daughter have endless words together, and the two of them are like sisters of the same age instead of mother and daughter, which is not bad.
After Lin Xi killed Li Shijiu's horse with a punch, he walked home with a calm face, and it was not until he returned to the Lin Mansion that his tight fist was released, and he felt that his palm was numb, and he opened his palm to loosen his muscles and bones.
"Da Lang, you are back home, Madame invites you to come over." The servant stepped forward and led his horse and said.
Lin Xi replied lightly, "I'll go over in a while." He first went to his courtyard to freshen up and change clothes, the little maid poured hot water for him, and then retired after serving clean clothes, Lin Xi was born in a military general's family, Mrs. Xue was not used to him, he had no other close servants except for a nurse. After he finished grooming and putting on his clothes, his own maid stepped forward to comb his wet hair.
"Da Lang, Anxi's letter has arrived." Lin Xi's guards came from outside the door and handed him a letter sealed in wax.
Lin Xi motioned to the guards to put the letter on the bookcase, his eyes slightly closed, and he did not open the letter.
The guards and maids are a little puzzled, usually Anxi is always the first to open the letter, but they don't dare to say much, don't look at Lin Xi's usual taciturn, but his status in the Lin family has always been the same, even his wife has to listen to him, especially as he gets older over the years, his bearing is becoming more and more calm.
Lin Xi and other guards and maids retreated, only slowly opened the letter, a small volume of letters his hands trembled slightly, opened the letter, the size of a fly's head of handwriting came into view, the more Lin Xi looked at the face of the stranger, and when he finished reading the letter, he suddenly put his right hand on his eyes and smiled lowly, the more he laughed, the lower the voice, and finally almost inaudible, faintly water stains flowed out of his fingers.
"Dalang." The maid stood outside the door and shouted to Lin Xi, "Madame sent someone to ask where you are eating." ”
Lin Xi was silent for a moment, and when he put down his hand, his expression had returned to calm, "It's at Madame's, I'll go in a while." ”
The maid answered.
In the inner courtyard, Mrs. Xue was concerned about today's feeding menu, and seeing that the kitchen was cooking what her son loved to eat, she said to the servant woman lightly, "Ah Xi hasn't been home for several days, let them be careful." ”
"Madame, don't worry, they don't do it every time." The servant woman laughed.
"Mother." Lin Xi strode into the room to salute his mother.
"Come here." Mrs. Xue happily looked at her son, who was growing more and more handsome, took his hand and said, "Don't eat out in the future, look at your skinny." ”
Lin Xiren's mother took her hand and listened to her chatter, and the meal was finished in Mrs. Xue's continuous concern for her son, and after the meal, Lin Xi said to Mrs. Xue: "Mother, ** came to the news that the family's private temple had collapsed for some reason. ”
"What!" The private temple is the ancestral temple, and worshipping the ancestors has been a major event for the people of the country since ancient times, and the ancestral temple has collapsed for half of the time, what is a good sign, Mrs. Xue was frightened.
"I want to take someone back, and I sent someone to report it, and I have agreed." Lin Xi is a family member of the border general who stayed in the capital, and he can't leave the capital at will, but if he encounters such a major event as the collapse of the ancestral shrine and Lin Jing is not there, he, the eldest son, should go back, and this kind of official office will not be unreasonable.
"Okay." Mrs. Xue nodded in a panic, "You should be careful on the road, go back and ask what the reason is." ”
Lin Xi nodded, got up and said, "Mother, it's not early, you can rest early, and I'll go to the study to read a book again." ”
Mrs. Xue wanted to speak and stopped, "Da Lang-"
"Mother?"
"How are you doing with Ah Zhi these days? I remember the last time you said that you were going to give Ah Shi a set of gifts, have you already prepared them? Mrs. Xue's words gradually lowered under the gaze of her son's calm gaze, "Why don't you speak?" Did you quarrel with Ah Chi? She asked in a whisper.
Lin Xi looked at his mother's demeanor, raised the teacup and took a sip, today's food seemed to be too sweet, and it was a little bitter, "I didn't talk to Ah Zhi, I have prepared a gift, and I will send it to her before I leave." ”
"That's good! That's good! Mrs. Xue listened to her son's words and smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, "Ah Zhi is a good child, you have to take care of her more, if only you could get married." Xue Shi thought that his son could marry his daughter-in-law, and his pale face flushed.
"I will." Lin Xi couldn't listen to it anymore, so he strode out of the door after dropping a word, and as soon as he got out of the inner courtyard, he called in a deep voice: "Respect for the text, respect for virtue." These two are his attendants, and their father is also Lin Xi's father's most trusted confidant Lin Lian.
"Dalang." The two saluted Lin Xi.
"Pack up and let's leave early tomorrow morning." Lin Xi commanded.
"Da Lang, aren't you going to the school tomorrow?" Jingwen asked.
"I'll be there tomorrow morning." Lin Xi said.
The two were speechless.
Lin Xi went to the school early the next morning, and first told Mr. about the emergency situation at home, as soon as the master heard that there was a problem with the private temple, he immediately granted leave, and anyone had a problem with the private temple is a big deal. Lin Xi came out of the school, hesitated, and went to find Jiang Wei.
As soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Wei had been endorsing since she got up, and after Shen Qin sent her husband away, she had been listening to her daughter's endorsement. In order to protect her eyes, Jiang Wei usually reads books during the day, and her martial arts practice is carried out only after the sun comes out completely and the cold completely dissipates, so that she is not easy to get sick.
Hearing the report that Lin Xi was coming, the mother and daughter looked at each other in surprise, "Why is it so early?" ”
"Aunt Shen." Lin Xi came in to greet Shen Qin.
"Ah Xi, why are you here so early today?" Shen Qin asked.
"I'm here to take leave." Lin Xi said, "Something happened to the private temple at home, and I want to go back." ”
"This is a big deal, and we can't delay." Shen Qin was taken aback, after all, the private temple was the most important place in the clan.
Lin Xi hesitated, took a brocade box from the hand of the little guy and put it in front of Jiang Wei, "Ah Zhi, this is for you." ”
Seeing this, Shen Qin covered his mouth and smiled: "Ah Zhi, you can play with your brother for a while." Saying that, she left very intimately.
Jiang looked at A-Niang with a slight black line, she seems to regard A-Xi as her boyfriend, she is only seven years old this year, okay?
"Ah Zhi-" Lin Xi called Jiang Wei softly.
"Ah Xi, do you have something on your mind?" Jiang Wei noticed that he was actually a little dark and blue under his eyes, and asked with concern, "You have dark circles under your eyes right now, haven't you slept well in the past few days-" Jiang Wei's words were interrupted by Lin Xi's actions before he finished speaking, and Lin Xi suddenly hugged her!
"Ah-hee?" Jiang Wei looked at Lin Xi in confusion, although the two were childhood sweethearts, they rarely got so close.
"Ah Zhi, I'm leaving." Lin Xi hugged Jiang Wei and whispered, Ah Zhi's body is soft, and he has to have a milky fragrance, just like when he was a child, if people can never grow up, it will not be good. Thinking that when he was a child, he played with Ah Zhi, who couldn't stand steadily, and a smile appeared on the corner of Lin Xi's mouth.
"Ah Xi, is there something wrong with you? Can you tell me? Lin Xi didn't need to guess to know that something was wrong, Jiang Wei hugged Lin Xi with his backhand and asked worriedly, "I can't help you, I can share it with you." ”
"I'm fine." Lin Xi smiled, "Ah Zhi, I'm leaving, if we don't sleep in the wilderness at night." ”
"Then be careful on your way." Jiang Wei frowned, but seeing that Lin Xi didn't want to say anything, he didn't ask.
"I'm leaving." Lin Xi hugged Jiang Wei harder, turned around and strode away.
After Shen Qin waited for Lin Xi to leave, he teased his daughter with a smile, "Ah Shi, what did Ah Xi just tell you?" ”
"I'm not going to tell you." Jiang Wei turned his face, looked at the brocade box that Ah Xi gave him, and opened the brocade box curiously, "Ah-" Jiang Wei let out a low exclamation, in the brocade box was a pair of tea bowls, which was Jiang Wei's usual style, small but the size of her palm, the shape was lotus petals, the glaze was clear and even, and it was as clear as a ruby. Jiang Wei usually doesn't like red and green, but red is her favorite color, even if even her family doesn't know this, Lin Xi will only understand it when she has been tired of being with her since she was a child.
Shen Qin also praised: "This set of tea sets is really beautiful. "Nowadays, Daqin is popular in gold and silverware, lacquerware, and my daughter doesn't like these three things to love porcelain, and Axi's gift can be regarded as a favorite. But how could Ah Xi give such a valuable gift? Red porcelain is extremely difficult to fire, nine out of ten kilns, in order to burn into red porcelain, even to fill in a lot of gold and gems, this pair of tea bowls look ordinary, but the property filled in it, at least enough to play a golden doll according to Ah Zhi. Shen Qin thought that he should return to the Lin family as a gift.
Jiang took a sip and stood up, "What about Lin Langjun?" ”
"Little lady, Lin Langjun is gone." The maid looked at Jiang Wei puzzled, didn't Lin Langjun already say goodbye to the little lady?
"C5, C6." Jiang Wei shouted repeatedly.
"What's wrong with Ah Chi?" Shen Qin asked in surprise when she saw her daughter like this.
"Little lady." Bingliu entered the house and saluted Jiang Wei, and when Jiang Wei was at home, he and Bingwu were on duty.
"You go after Ah Xi now, don't come forward along the way, protect Ah Xi." Jiang Wei ordered, she had a faint foreboding in her heart, Ah Xi was too wrong, he refused to tell him anything, she had no position to force Ah Xi's affairs at all.
"But my task is to protect the little lady." Bingliu was stunned and said.
"I don't want your protection now, and I won't go out, didn't Uncle say that you should listen to me?" Jiang Wei's face was annoyed, she was not angry with Bingliu, but angry that she was too young and couldn't make her own decisions.
"You go after Ah Xi." Shen Qin saw his daughter like this for the first time, so he hurriedly took her in his arms and instructed Bingliu: "You are Ah Zhi's guard." ”
"Yui." Bingliu didn't dare to delay after hearing Shen Qin's words, and directly retreated to chase Lin Xi.
"Ah Zhi, what's wrong with Ah Xi?" Shen Qin asked his daughter after waiting for Bingliu to step back.
Jiang shook his head slightly, "I don't know." "Would she be so worried if she knew?" I was worried that something would happen to him on the way. ”
"Don't worry, Ah Xi has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and the guards of the Lin family are not decorations." Shen Qin smiled and comforted her daughter.
Jiang nodded slightly, but there was still a deep worry in his eyes. Especially after the news came from Bingliu three days later that he had lost Lin Xi, Jiang Wei was even more worried, looking forward to Lin Xi's early return.
Jiang Wei's worries made the elders see it, Shen Qin smiled and sighed that her daughter had a deep relationship with Lin Xi, Jiang Ling was jealous and said that the daughter was not left behind, and her daughter was someone else's family before she grew up, and Jiang Rin silently added homework to her niece, and arranged her schedule every day, not letting her think about other messy things. At this time, the news of Bingliu came again, saying that she had caught up with Lin Xi again, which made Jiang Wei breathe a sigh of relief, she returned to normal, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and the Jiang family also returned to normal. Jiang Wei thought about many things about what happened after Lin Xi came back, but she never thought that Lin Xi's return would be so sudden and shocking-
