Chapter 3: Qin Ying
took Long'er to the hall, and as soon as he entered the door, Wang beckoned to Xuan Shijing: "Jing'er came just in time, come, say hello to Aunt Qin." ”
It turned out to be Mrs. Qin, who personally brought Qin Ying and a large cart of New Year's goods to the Hou Mansion.
"Nephew Xuan Shijing, please say hello to Aunt Qin." Xuan Shijing bowed to Mrs. Qin, although she was small, she was decent. Turning around, he arched his hand to Qin Yingyi: "Brother Huaiyu." ”
Qin Ying returned the salute.
Seeing that the backs of the two sides got along well, Mrs. Qin's face bloomed with joy, and she boasted: "My sister is also a blessed person, Jing'er is so young, but her bearing is extraordinary, and she will definitely achieve extraordinary achievements in the future." ”
Wang replied with a smile: "It's also Jing'er's struggle, look at Ling Gongzi, he is young, and he also has the majestic style of the Yiguo Gong back then." ”
"Haha." Hearing Wang's praise of her son, Mrs. Qin was also happy: "It's true, two or three years have passed, and our sisters' families came out of Erxianzhuang and Wagangzhai back then, and we haven't been able to have a good chat for a long time, so let the juniors go down to play, and our sisters have a good chat today." ”
Speaking of that year, Wang was also embarrassed, lamenting that the years had passed, and said with a smile: "This is very good." Turning his head to look at Xuan Shijing: "Jing'er, take your brother Qin Ying around the mansion, my mother wants to talk to your aunt." ”
"Yes." Xuan Shijing answered, and then pulled Qin Yu out of the hall.
At this time, Qin Ying was only eight years old, and the three-year-old Xuan Shijing took the nine-year-old Qin Yu to the back garden of the Hou Mansion and instructed Long'er beside him: "Long'er, I want to play with Brother Qin Yu in the back garden for a while, you go and help me prepare some food." ”
Long'er blessed her body: "Yes, little marquis." ”
Looking at Xuan Shijing, who was five years younger than him, Qin Ying couldn't help but feel envious: "Brother Shijing, I really envy you, you are so majestic in the Hou Mansion. ”
Xuan Shijing couldn't help but smile secretly, his three-year-old body contained a soul close to thirty years old, no matter how much he pretended to be a child, his temperament couldn't be pretended, and he smiled: "Actually, I also envy Brother Huaiyu." ”
Although Qin Ying was only eight years old, she already had her own words, so Xuan Shijing called Qin Ying Brother Huaiyu.
"Brother Shijing, what do you envy me, I am in the Qin Mansion, although I carry the name of the Duke of Xiaoguo, but I am not as comfortable as my brother in the Hou Mansion, no matter what you do, there are always a lot of people running over to tell me that this can't be done, that can't be done." Qin Ying said: "Brother, at a young age, you are already the Marquis of Xuanwei County, and if you go one step further, you will be the Marquis of the country." ”
"Brother Huaiyu, don't laugh at the little brother anymore, as we all know, my title of the marquis is completely overshadowed by my father."
Only then did Qin Ying react, she touched Xuan Shijing's sadness, a three-year-old child, before he was born, he had no father.
"I'm sorry, Brother Shijing."
Xuan Shijing waved his little hand: "Brother Huaiyu doesn't have to mind, now Shijing is very good, His Majesty personally named the Marquis of Xuanwei, the name is also given by His Majesty, compared to the children of other noble families, Shijing feels very happy." ”
"Little Hou Ye, little Grandpa, the dim sum is here." Long'er came over with a tray: "Come, the little grandfather tastes it, this is the jujube cake that the little marquis taught to make for the slave." ”
"Brother Huaiyu, come and have a taste." Xuan Shijing picked up the jujube cake and stuffed it into his mouth, he mentioned it to Long'er at the beginning, but he didn't expect Long'er to really study it: "Long'er's craftsmanship is becoming more and more exquisite." Xuan Shijing praised.
"As long as the little marquis likes it." Long'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
Qin Ying also picked up a piece of jujube cake, tasted it, and her eyes widened: "Hmm, it's really delicious, Brother Shijing, can I bring some back to my father to taste?" ”
"Yes, Long'er, you go to the kitchen, make more and let Brother Huaiyu take it with him when he leaves, by the way, write down this practice, and bring it back to Brother Huaiyu, Uncle Qin was injured too much on the battlefield in his early years, and his blood and blood loss was terrible, eat more jujube cakes, it is good for his body, and put less sugar when he does it."
"Yes." Long'er heard Xuan Shijing's command, turned around and went back to the kitchen.
"Brother Shijing, you know a lot." Quite Xuan Shijing talked exaggeratedly, Qin Ying couldn't help but admire.
"It's all idle and have nothing to read." Xuan Shijing said: "Brother Huaiying will be a big official in the future, and in the future, my brother will take care of you more." ”
Qin Ying patted his chest: "Of course, I must be a big general in the future, and when the time comes, whoever dares to bully Shijing's younger brother, I will take thousands of troops and horses to seek justice for you." ”
Although it is a child's joke, but in Xuan Shijing's opinion, this is the purest friendship in the world, since he can walk, he is closer to Qin Ying, as for the children of the Cheng family and the children of the Wei Chi family, when Xuan Shijing was young, the two families did everything to prevent them from approaching Xuan Shijing, without it, the children of the Cheng family and the Wei Chi family inherited their father's heart, they were stubborn and stubborn at a young age, and they were famous troublemakers in Chang'an City. Let these former robe brothers face Xuan Mingde under Jiuquan. Therefore, when several families went to the Hou Mansion to walk around, they were all grandfathers of the country who personally took their juniors to visit in the front hall, Xuan Shijing and the children of the Cheng family and the Wei Chi family got along with each other under the eyes of these old princes, and Qin Ying was different, Qin Ying was born with a gentle temperament, and the biological mother and Xuan Shijing's mother Wang were old acquaintances who met in Erxianzhuang, so they moved around more frequently. Cheng Chumo and the others naturally had nothing to do to contact Xuan Shijing.
"Shijing, you are still young, it is inconvenient to go out of the house, when you grow up, my brother will take you out to play, a few days ago, I sneaked out with Chu Mo and Baolin, Chang'an Street, it was lively." Qin Ying saw that Xuan Shijing, who was only three years old, was bored at home all day long, looking bored and ruthless, so he told him about the scenery on Chang'an Street.
For the imperial capital of the Tang Empire, the style of Chang'an Street, Xuan Shijing has been fascinated for a long time, but because of his young age, the Wang family takes very strict care of him, and he has never been out of the Hou Mansion except for taking a carriage to visit several princes.
"After this year, I will be four years old, tell my mother, maybe I can go out with Brother Huaiyu." Xuan Shijing said, he couldn't stop yearning, he was a very restless person in his previous life, otherwise he would not have chosen to go out to explore, although his mind was stable in this life, he didn't want to wander around the world like in his previous life, but he was really stuffy at home all day.
"Well, when the time comes, follow us in Chang'an City to ensure that no one dares to mess with you." Qin Ying patted his chest and said to Xuan Shijing with a proud face.
Xuan Shijing looked at Qin Ying with a smile: "Then the little brother will have to rely on the elder brother at that time." ”
"Little grandfather." In the distance, Mrs. Qin's maid ran into the backyard: "Little grandfather, Madam asked me to come to you and prepare to go home." ”
"Brother Shijing, I'll go back first, and I'll treat you well when I come to my house in the New Year." Qin Ying said.
"Certainly, Brother Huaiyu, remember to bring Long'er's jujube cake and recipes." Xuan Shijing instructed.
Qin Ying nodded, and took the maid to the kitchen to find Long'er.
Seeing this Qin Ying leave, Xuan Shijing smashed his mouth, and felt bored for a while, and took a little scholar back to the study, because in addition to the study, there was really no interesting place in the Hou Mansion, although the three-year-old body had limited physical strength, but this huge Hou Mansion had been walking day by day as early as when Xuan Shijing could walk.
The books in the study are originally collected by Li Shimin, the Qin Wangfu was transformed into the Hou Mansion, Li Shimin and these books were rewarded together, this is cheap Xuan Shijing, the study of the Qin Wangfu is comparable to the average family, this can be called a library, the whole study is divided into two rooms, there are more than ten large solid wood bookshelves in the middle, which are stuffed with books, divided into categories, the types are complete, the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, only the Shi clan gate valve collection is so rich, the Li family is the Guanlong family, Later, Li Yuan became the emperor, and Li Shimin made brilliant military achievements, and he rewarded many books collected from all over the world.
It's just that as soon as Xuan Shijing sat down, the big housekeeper Uncle Zhong knocked on the door outside the study.
"Little Marquis, Mrs. said that at the end of the year, this year the little Marquis should go to the fiefdom Zhuangzi for a walk, Madame has already instructed the subordinates to prepare the frame, let me invite the little Marquis over."
