Chapter 98: Visiting Geng's Mansion is full of doubts
Geng Sanniang didn't dare to be careless, so she quickly sent someone to Chang'an, and immediately arranged for the cook and subordinates to bring enough seasonings and ingredients to the county government to serve.
"Miss Wang, the humble house is shabby, and I want to wronged you." After Geng Sanniang finished the "urgent" matter, she began to care about this gentle and kind Wang girl. Although this girl is not very old, she must be a celebrity next to the princess, and it can be seen that she is doing everything possible to maintain the Geng family, so she must take care of it.
"Sanniang go get busy, don't worry about me, I'll just take a walk." Wang Jingyan is very satisfied with the guest room that Geng Sanniang arranged for herself, and she is more interested in this lord's mansion! The courtyard structure is very ordinary, but the layout of the house is so strange, how is the account room in the front yard, what does the second entrance do?
With great curiosity, Wang Jingyan walked into the courtyard of Erjin. She suddenly found out that this place was actually a "school"! And it looks like it's still "boarding"!
More than a dozen cases in the lobby are neatly placed, and bamboo slips, pen and ink are neatly placed.
It may not be school time, but a dozen or so children are either reviewing their homework in the "classroom", or playing in the yard, or fiddling with flowers and plants in the flower beds.
This Lord Geng is indeed extraordinary! Wang Jingyan began to wonder about the origin of these children.
"Three-seven-twenty-one, three-eighty-twenty-four, three-nine-twenty-seven......" Under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, two or three children were running back and forth, "playing" and muttering and reciting.
Wang Jingyan immediately frowned!
Although the ninety-nine mantra was recorded in ancient books as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, according to his "experience" for more than a year, few people know it, let alone such a young child!
Wang Jingyan couldn't help but pull a little girl, "Child, who taught you this mantra?" ”
"Daddy!" The little girl replied with a brisk smile.
"Daddy?"
Wang Jingyan frowned, and was about to ask again, when an older handsome girl walked over from the "classroom".
"Is this girl here to find her brother?"
"Oh, I'm here to visit Lord Geng." Wang Jingyan looked at this girl carefully, she really couldn't imagine that there was such a fairy-like beautiful girl in this Geng Mansion!
"My brother went to Chang'an and invited the girl to have tea in the living room." The girl politely asked Wang Jingyan to go back to the front yard.
"You're Lord Geng's sister?" Wang Jingyan also felt that she was reckless, and without the permission of her master, she ran to the backyard of someone's house, which was a little "out of bounds".
"Sort of! My name is Yi Zhu, where is the girl from? The handsome girl is Zhao Yizhu, she found that there were "strangers" in the backyard and hurried over to receive them.
"Oh, my name is Wang Jingyan, you can call me Sister Jingyan." Beautiful girls are always likable, especially if the Lord is so gentle and virtuous.
"Sister, please be seated!" Lord Yi sat down with Wang Jingyan and began to cook tea.
"Lord Yi, I don't think your accent is from Chang'an." Wang Jingyan watched Lord Yi skillfully cook tea, and was a little curious.
"Don't hide it from my sister, I'm from Bemba County, I was exiled in another country, but I was fortunate to be taken in by Brother Fan and recognized as my sister."
"Ba County! Pleasant Lord! You, your original surname, surname ......" Wang Jingyan originally felt that the name Yizhu was familiar, but she suddenly remembered it.
"My real name is Zhao, I came to Chang'an with my parents, unfortunately I was separated on the road and was rescued by my brother." Neither does it hide.
"You, you also have a sister named Hede!" Wang Jingyan completely understood! I searched for a year in Yang'a Mansion, and it turned out that the famous Zhao Feiyan was actually in Maoling!
Princess Yang'a cares so much about this Geng Fan, although she hasn't met her five times, but sooner or later, this Zhao Feiyan will definitely follow the princess back home! Otherwise, she would not have become a legendary queen of a generation!
"Sister, do you know my sister's whereabouts?" Yi Zhu was shocked when she heard Wang Jingyan accurately call out her sister's name, could she know the whereabouts of her sister and even her parents!
"I don't know, but I'll find it sooner or later." Wang Jingyan also found that she had missed her mouth, looking at Zhao Feiyan's surprised expression, her mind was spinning quickly, "I also heard the legend that the Yizhu and Hede sisters look like fairies." Today, when I saw it, it was true. ”
"Oh!" Lord Yi's expression darkened, he used to follow Brother Xiaofan to "run around", but now that he has finally settled down, it is time to find a way to find his parents and sister.
"Lord Yi, where did all those children come from?" Wang Jingyan was afraid that Lord Yi would continue to ask herself, so she quickly diverted the topic.
"They are all children of the victims of the disaster in Luoyang, and Brother Fan adopted them when he passed through Luoyang."
"Adoption? What about their parents? ”
"Most of them starved to death, a few came to pick up the children, and the rest were homeless."
"Oh, I see that your lord is very good to them! They were also taught to read and write. ”
"Well, Brother Fan and sister-in-law are very good, treat them like their own children. Without them, these children would probably ......" Lord Yi cooked tea and respectfully served it to Wang Jingyan.
"Lord Yi, your brother seems to be very capable, he must have done a lot of great things, can you show me."
"Something remarkable?" Lord Yi tilted his head and thought for a while, "He just likes to get some food and clothing, great things?" Oh, it looks like there's one for me to show you! ”
Yizhu remembered the two big "waterwheels" by the Wei River, and happily took Wang Jingyan to visit.
"Barrel car!" Wang Jingyan was already shocked that she didn't get to the shore, this Geng Fan actually knew how to make a tube car, and he made two at once!
In the gentle area on the north bank, a small cylinder truck continuously lifts the river water, which can already irrigate a large area of farmland along the river. And on the other side there is a large one, which has not yet been completed, but it looks like it is going to lead the water uphill!
"Lord, what is that one for?" Wang Jingyan pointed to the big cart and asked.
"My brother was going to reclaim the hillside into terraces, plant fruit trees, and bring water halfway up the mountain. If you come back next year, you'll be able to eat fresh fruit! As soon as Lord Yi thought of Brother Fan's plan, he couldn't help but be excited.
"Awesome! Your brother is amazing! Tell me about him, what else will he do? Wang Jingyan is more interested than anyone else at this time.
"I don't think he's very good, but he always has a lot of weird ideas in his head, and he can cook a lot of delicious food, hot pot, dumplings, ......," Yi Zhu said casually.
"What do you say? Dumplings! Wang Jingyan can basically conclude that this Lord Geng must have crossed over, no accident, he should be his brother Xiaofan, otherwise, how could he make a tube car and make dumplings!
But, he, how did he get married! Listening to the tone of the Lord Yi, their husband and wife are still very affectionate!
What the hell happened to him?
Wang Jingyan doesn't know whether she should be happy or worried, or should she hate?
