Chapter 89: Reunion (1)
Things have changed, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the Chen family has been patient, and has almost set up Shen Xueyuan's family banquet properly, but Aunt Lin's heart is higher than the sky, and she is picky about the details every now and then. Chen was too lazy to deal with one of her aunts, so he just ignored it.
On the day of the wedding, the car outside the house is like flowing water, the treasure horse is like a dragon, the house is hung with lights, the candles are brilliant, and the flowing water seat with abalone wings alone is enough to set up fifty or sixty tables.
Although Shen Jiajun was ill, in order not to let Shen's mother, who was already old, suspense, drag a sick body to attend, and in order to show family harmony, even Mrs. Zhou, who had been locked up for half a year, had to get out of the cage and entertain female guests in the inner hall as the main mother.
Mother Shen still has a mustard in her heart, although after a few months, Mrs. Zhou is in shape and looks like she has repented, but the old man still ignores it.
However, Mrs. Wu and Chen remembered their love for many years, and took Mrs. Zhou's hand and asked the east and the west, which made Mrs. Zhou cry profusely.
Compared with the gentleness of the women, the men outside are very different. Although I didn't meet before, as long as I sat together, it was lively, unrestrained, and the meat and vegetables were not taboo.
As the saying goes, things gather by like, people by groups, this layman has the words of the layman, and the elegant person must also have the chatter of the elegant person.
Most of the people sitting at the same table with Shen Fu were literati, everyone talked about poetry, talked about Fu theory, and before they knew it, the field heated up, and then they also began to chat, what do you say about jade and fragrance, what do I say and what flowers are interpreted.
The adjacent table is dominated by Shen Heng and Shen Yi, and there are Zhan Yanxing, Du Lingjun, Qin Hanrong, Tang Yizhen, Sun Zuguang, Guan Yuluo and others.
More than a dozen people shouted and drank a few rounds of wine orders, poured a few large glasses of cold wine, and their hearts were hot, and they couldn't help but pull around.
I only heard Zhan Yanxing say: "Have you heard that the Lu family in Dongcheng made a joke?" ”
"Isn't it Lu Erlang who committed adultery with his sister-in-law He? It's been more than a month since this happened, and it's all over the city, who doesn't know? Du Lingjun said.
Zhan Yanxing was a little disappointed, and said: "People say that the leopard dies and leaves the skin, and the person dies and leaves the name, they are good, and they make this ugly thing, but I am afraid that I will not be able to wash it by jumping into the Yellow River!" ”
Qin Hanrong was very excited when he heard what they said, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Guess what, is it the sister-in-law who seduces the little uncle first or the little uncle who seduces the sister-in-law first?" ”
Tang Yizhen said casually: "It's hard to say, Lu Dalang is frail and sickly, and he has to rely on decoction for many years, then Lu Erlang is in his prime, he is impetuous, and he has not yet married, he and his sister-in-law He are under the same roof, and he looks down and doesn't look up. Heart, that's not impossible, but the fence can't enter, who can guarantee that He is honest? ”
"This is also, think about Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian in "Golden Vase Plum", the merry tea is harmonious, the wine is a color matchmaker, and he is really drunk and unconscious, no matter what kind of uncle he is, what kind of sister-in-law he is
, Mandarin ducks cross their necks, bumpy. The inverted phoenix is serious! Qin Hanrong smiled wickedly.
Sun Zuguang saw him with a wicked smile on his face, and said: "I am fortunate to have seen the side of the He family, although I dare not say that it is the appearance of the city and the country, it is also a wonderful person, the eyebrows are like willow leaves in early spring, and the face is like peach blossoms in March. ”
Guan Yuluo had no intention of interjecting, but because Sun Zuguang portrayed the He family too vividly, he couldn't help but open his mouth and said: "This is nonsense, how can you see the He family?" ”
Sun Zuguang swore: "If I lie, the sky will thunder!" It was indeed accidentally encountered when I went to Baiyun Temple to incense at the beginning of the year! ”
Shen Heng was puzzled: "Isn't that Baiyun Temple a nunnery?" You're a barbarian, and those nuns let you in? ”
Sun Zuguang snorted and said, "Where can I get in?" It's just to send the insiders to the incense, so I waited outside, and happened to bump into their Lu family's carriage, I saw it clearly, and Lu Erlang helped the He family get out of the car. He Shi's eyes were sharp, seeing that I always looked at them, he seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he was determined to break free of Lu Erlang's hand, but Lu Erlang didn't let go, and the two were awkward for a while, and Lu Erlang reluctantly lost his hand, and watched He enter the view! ”
"In this way, their uncle and sister-in-law have already had a head and tail, it's really pitiful that Lu Dalang doesn't know it!" Guan Yuluo said with a sigh.
Shen Yi said from the side: "You guys also eat salty radishes and don't worry about it, what do you care about this idle matter?" It's important to do business seriously, otherwise, it won't be easy to deal with at the end of the year! ”
When Zhan Yanxing heard his words, he seemed to touch a string in his heart, and sighed: "What else? The left is just making do with it! Since the beginning of the year, in order to welcome the southern tour of the saint in Suzhou next year, up and down, no one has stopped, the governor is busy building the southern tour palace, and the soldiers are not idle, and they are tidying up the streets and repairing the city wall, so that our businessmen are not at ease, and they donate money to the yamen several times, so several times, this year can be regarded as a busy work! ”
"Isn't it? For the sake of one mouth, running and breaking two legs, our circle of people, all year round, exposed to the wind and sun, camping in wild shops, earning only enough for a family to eat and drink, how can they withstand such a request from the yamen? Shen Heng agreed.
Du Lingjun was angry in his heart, and said indignantly: "If you want to raise money, the yamen should reach out to the Salt and Iron Bureau and the Ship Division. These two places are the most profitable businesses in our Suzhou City, and the Yamen also knows it, how can they ask us for money? ”
Guan Yuluo listened to it and smiled heartily: "Where do you know the thoughts of their government?" They are the big heads to catch, and the small heads to be caught! I grabbed it, and handed it over to the big head, but the small head was hard to say, maybe it was to fill my own pocket, maybe it was given to the boss as a courtesy. It's like the Cao family in the city, on the day the government ordered someone to raid the house, I deliberately joined in the fun to take a look, there are really a lot of treasures, the gold and silver are too cheesy, there are dozens of sheep fat and jade Buddhas alone, not to mention the half-human high coral tree! ”
Shen Fu heard it at the adjacent table, and hurriedly ran to Guan Yuluo's side and asked, "The government is ordered to raid the house, do you dare to fill your own pockets?" ”
Guan Yuluo shook his head
He said, "Who can say for sure?" It's just to support the bold, starve the cowardly, whoever has the guts, eat a little more! ”
When Shen Fu heard this, he thought about the truth that big fish eat small fish and small fish eat dried shrimp, and he couldn't help but shake his head and planned to go back to the adjacent table.
Shen Heng's eyes were quick, he grabbed Shen Fu's arm, and took a glass of wine from the table, saluted, and then refused to let him go.
Seeing Shen Fu leave, Shen Heng turned his head and sat down, and said, "This saint also loves the southern tour too much, he has already come to Suzhou three times before, and now he wants to come again, isn't this intended to make us sad?" ”
Qin Hanrong answered smoothly: "I see, the saint is better than Kangxi." This Kangxi Ye has toured the south six times in total, and our saint is not willing to lag behind, every three years, the southern tour is once, but it is hard for us, and we are plucked all over the body, and no benefits will fall! ”
"Yes, although this salt merchant donates tens of thousands of taels, but they earn a lot every year, tens of thousands of taels of silver, for them, it's just a drizzle, not to mention that they also have benefits, with the merit of this money, not only can they win a reputation for the family, but also donate a future to their children and nephews, let's pay to see the excitement!" Tang Yizhen said and sighed.
Shen Yi saw that the atmosphere was gloomy, and hurriedly said: "Don't talk about these bad things, on a happy day, it's better to punch and drink bars!" ”
Sun Zuguang glanced at him, his shoulders slumped suddenly, and said, "Second Master Shen is still in the mood to drink, but I can't fight anywhere!" ”
"And what is this for?" Shen Yi asked.
Sun Zuguang said: "This year's tea garden is not good, a few of my guys are active, and when they see that the situation is not good, they take the opportunity to slip away, which catches me off guard. ”
"It's always easy to find capital, but it's hard to find a guy, Brother Sun doesn't have to worry, wait for me to go back and ask Lai Yongan outside. He has a wide range of roads, and he may be able to find the right person! Shen Yi slowly persuaded, and when he saw that Sun Zuguang was relieved, he smiled again: "Okay, drink a bar!" ”
Sun Zuguang laughed, hurriedly took the wine cup, and drank it all.
Nine offerings of food, three rounds of wine, a crooked leaf crescent moon also rose to the air, and the surrounding stars were dotted, reflecting each other.
The inner seat was generally dispersed earlier, and Chen Yun accompanied Shen's mother and others to talk for a while, feeling a little sleepy, so she complained to Chen about her fatigue.
Back at the residence, Chen Yun hurriedly washed her face, changed into simple clothes, and was accompanied by Ruiyun to take a walk in the courtyard to eat.
The gloomy night is like an impermeable net, and the surroundings are quiet, and a few laurel trees emerge with tender yellow stamens, emitting bursts of fragrance.
Chen Yun smelled the fragrance of flowers, her heart was very comfortable, and she walked a few more laps.
Ruiyun saw that the night was dark, and planned to persuade her to rest early, but before she could open her mouth, she saw Ruicai, who was dressed in red, ran over in a panic and said, "Third grandma, it's not good, the third master is drunk again, and he can't make trouble in the hall!" ”
"Didn't you tell him to drink less?" Chen Yun wondered.
"Grandma doesn't know the third master, who is he who is willing to listen to persuasion? I've heard,
The third master was arrogant, and he cleared several customs during the banquet! ”
"He's reckless!" Chen Yun's voice was full of disgust, "I don't have a long memory, how many times have I been drunk and unconscious, why do you still make this mistake now?" ”
Ruiyun smiled: "Grandma is still thinking about how to bring the third master back!" ”
"How can we go to the front yard and show our faces?" Chen Yun frowned and said, "What about Pingshun? ”
Rui Cai Yanran smiled: "Grandma doesn't have to look for him specifically, I just informed him, so that he can guard the third master for a long time!" ”
Chen Yun nodded and ordered: "It's not too early to see the sky, you go and boil some boiling water!" ”
Ruicai smiled and blessed her body.
Chen Yun was just about to go back to the house, but suddenly saw Pingshun dragging Shen Fu into the courtyard, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and quickly went up to take a hand.
After Shen Fu was settled, Chen Yun was so tired that he was sweating, so he took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, and then ordered Pingshun and Ruiyun to go out.
Walking to the basin, Chen Yun twisted a face towel, shook the water beads on the surface of her hand, quickly reached the edge of the bed, went up and wiped a few handfuls on Shen Fu's face, and then turned back to the washing place, and hurriedly put the face towel on the edge of the basin.
At this time, Shen Fu turned sharply on the bed in a daze, dropped one leg down, and his body was about to roll to the ground.
Chen Yun's eyes were quick, he stepped forward with small and chaotic steps, and pushed the person into the bed a few times with all his strength, and then sat down on the bed panting, wiping the fine sweat from the corners of his forehead, and glaring at Shen Fu with a disgusted gaze, and then slowly untied the bead hairpin, took off his coat, and fell asleep with a small vacant seat left by Shen Fu.
