It was already about to start spring, but the inexplicable thief God once again fell a goose feather snow, causing the road in Luoyang to be almost covered again.

The world has become vast again, and there are too many people in this kind of weather, even Yuan Yun, who likes snow very much, can't raise half of his interest, so he has to stay at home and don't plan to go out.

Sitting comfortably in front of the window of the study, the desk on the side was already full of drawn drawings, Qing'er was carefully brewing tea on the iron stove, Zhen Mi was helping on the side, but the two little girls were not bored at all, just giggling and making noise.

Yuan Yun kept looking out the window, almost every snowflake could make him stare at it for a long time, so he hid in a warm room in a daze, didn't think about anything, and his brain was empty, which was the highest level he pursued.

The full moon wine two days ago was very successful, everyone was very satisfied, the pomp of the Yuan Mansion was also promoted, and the image of the big family was established very perfectly, just like the perfect design designed by Liu Yiyi.

It is estimated that in the entire Yuan Mansion, only Yuan Yun is very disgusted with this kind of behavior of squeezing into the ranks of the big clans, but he doesn't want to bother too much about this kind of thing, women like it, so let them go.

When Liu Yiyi pulled a group of wives to come to talk about this, Yuan Yun almost dropped the bun in his mouth on the ground, according to Liu Yiyi, this is called taking advantage of the prestige of Zheng Xuan and Jingzhou celebrities, and then pushing the Yuan Mansion to a new height.

In this way, it can also make the Yuan Mansion a real aristocratic class, as long as these celebrities mention the Yuan Mansion and say 'good people', then everything is worth it.

Now it is obvious that those celebrities in Jingzhou are very satisfied, and the banquet that day was fragrant and spicy, and in the end they even got drunk several times.

In this way, when these Jingzhou celebrities left, they did not forget to take a few jars of spirits from Yuan's mansion, saying that when they were studying knowledge, they needed such fine wine to accompany them.

And this request was immediately responded to by the eldest sister Feng Xuan, so that the Yuan Mansion took care of the future offerings of these celebrities.

"It's a loss-making deal!" Yuan Yun suddenly muttered very unpleasantly, and closed the window with his hand.

Zhen Mi was stunned, put down the tea powder that was grinding in his hand, and then walked gently to Yuan Yun's side, and then asked, "Lang Jun, what did you say about losing money?" ”

Yuan Yun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "The eldest sister provides free drinks to the gentlemen of those colleges, that is not a loss, and it is impossible for these old talents to help us make money." ”

Zhen Mi suddenly laughed like a silver bell, and only gasped for a long time and said, "Lang Jun, what kind of idle are you doing?" Our spirits are also available on the market, and many people have specially prepared this kind of good wine to honor the gentlemen of these colleges, but they never accept it, but our wine people rush to ask for it, do you know why? ”

Yuan Yun shook his head in astonishment, feeling that these celebrities were probably stuffed with their brains, and the wine in Yuan's Mansion was actually not much different from the ones sold outside, but it was very expensive to sell them out.

Zhen Mi was already sitting on Yuan Yun's side at the moment, and then continued: "Because it is a great benefit to be able to associate with these celebrities, their fame is not only loud in Jingzhou, but also in other places.

The eldest sister values this, so she will be willing to give away wine for free, and these are also the meaning of Sister Wen Ji, Lang Jun is the smartest person in the world, whether it is literary or ability, it is first-class, why not take this opportunity to become a celebrity in the Quartet? ”

Yuan Yun listened to Zhen Mi's words, he could only shake his head helplessly, he knew best how many goods he had in his stomach, and he didn't know what was good about becoming a celebrity, he had to be watched closely by others, once he made a slight mistake, he would be pointed at, don't do it.

The pragmatism of later generations is what Yuan Yun is looking at, although fame is also very important, but real power and economy are the real royal road, history has long been proven, as long as you have strong strength in your hands, then even if you are a coarse, there will be a lot of famous Confucian people bowing their heads to it.

Zhen Mi saw that Yuan Yun didn't seem to be very interested, so she chuckled lightly and said, "If Lang Jun doesn't like it, then don't take care of it, Sister Wen Ji and Sister Yiyi will naturally handle it properly." ”

Yuan Yun shook his head with a wry smile, then hugged Zhen Mi in his arms, and it was quiet in an instant, and soon Qing'er also came to his side, and after putting down the teacup, he also leaned on Yuan Yun's shoulder obediently.

Yuan Yun almost snorted comfortably, no matter what kind of celebrity and Confucian, it is not as practical as his wife, so he and the two ladies quietly watched the snow fall in the courtyard, so even if he was asked to do Kongqiu, he would not agree.

Time passed gradually, and he didn't know how long it was, until the snow in the yard had stopped for a while, and Yuan Yun suddenly heard Shi Shen calling him at the door.

When he came to the door, he saw Shi Shen's face very solemn, and when he saw Yuan Yun coming out, he immediately hugged his fists and said, "Lord Qiqi, Xiliang Ma Chao asks to see you." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned, and laughed in an instant, he should have come or come, this Ma Chao is really an impatient person, and he originally guessed that he would have to stay up for at least half a month before he would come to meet in person, but now that it has only been a few days, he can't help but come to the door in person.

"And let him wait, although he is served with hot tea, do not slack off, and wait until he has drunk three pots of tea, and then call me." After Yuan Yun finished speaking, he returned to the study leisurely.

At this moment, Zhen Mi just finished drawing a picture of a lady, and then leisurely began to inscribe on the side, and muttered in her mouth: "Xi Shi Yuexi girl, from Ramie Mountain." The beautiful color covers the present and the ancient, and the lotus flower is shy and jade. Huansha makes clear water, and is idle with clear waves. The letter is difficult to open, and it is deep in the blue clouds. Gou Jian is brilliant, and the moth enters Wu Pass. Carry the palace of the doll of the museum, and it is impossible to climb. Once the husband is broken, the country is broken, and Qianqiu does not pay it back. ”

After reading it, a picture of a lady with a poem had already taken shape, Zhen Mi hurriedly pressed it with a paperweight, and then began to wait patiently for the handwriting to gradually dry.

Seeing Yuan Yun returning, Zhen Mi smiled and said: "Lang Jun's "Song of Laie Luo Mountain" shows the beauty and gentleness of Xi Shi to the fullest, and the concubine likes the sentence "Shen Yin Biyunjian", a "Yin" says the infinite heart of a woman of the best age, this word is the best, and there seems to be a faint sadness floating above the joy, which makes people love and pity. ”

Yuan Yun's old face will not be embarrassed by stealing poetry now, not even a little ashamed blush, Li Bai's poems are really a good thing to coax women, it is simply a hundred trials, it can make his mother-in-law happy, let alone stealing poems, it is no problem for him Yuan Yun to really become a thief.

Seeing that Zhen Mi liked it, Yuan Yun immediately smiled and said: "You are a cautious person, seeing that I wrote a lot of poems for Yiyi, you also came to ask for it, are you ashamed?" ”

Zhen Mi pursed her lips and snorted: "When the concubine passed through the door, Yuan Lang said it himself, everything will be fair and just, and the concubine will remember this for a lifetime." ”

Looking at Zhen Mi's delicate appearance, Yuan Yun sighed, and said in his heart that it is really necessary to be absolutely fair and just, and it is not easy to talk about it, because he does not regard women as goods like the men in front of him, so he is destined to be very hard in the future, but every time he sees these beautiful women in the backyard, he feels that it is worth the hard work.

After thinking about these things, Yuan Yun glanced at the masterpiece that Zhen Mi had just completed on the table, and immediately stretched out a thumbs up and praised: "What a pair of calligraphy and paintings, Zhen Mei is really a wonderful hand." ”

Zhen Mi laughed a little shyly, and then continued: "The concubine's ability is just to entertain herself, Yizhou Liu Zhang's lady picture, that is the real everyone, I have collected a pair before, the woman in the painting seems to be alive, very vivid and wonderful, Lang Jun will see Liu Zhang in the future, and he will definitely ask for a few pictures to hide it." ”

Hearing Zhen Mi say this, Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment, and in an instant, he thought of Ma Chao, who was still waiting in the front hall, he was so eager to find it, it seems that it is not a private matter like business, no matter how you think about it, it is a public matter.

"It seems that Ma Teng of Xiliang is very ambitious, a Hanzhong can't be satisfied, and he wants to fight Yizhou's idea, no wonder they are so eager."

After Yuan Yun finished reading, he walked outside the gate with a smile, and then said to Xiao Liu, who was still waiting: "Go and talk to Shi Shen, just say that Ben Hou is ill and can't see guests today, if Ma Chao wants to see him, let him go to Cao Ang's mansion tomorrow." ”

Xiao Liu sighed and hurried to the front yard.

Zhen Mi saw that Xiao Liu was gone, so he asked suspiciously: "Lang Jun, why is this, since you let that Ma Chao wait in the front hall for a long time, and you don't see him now, isn't it offending people?" Can this Ma Chaoyan go to Cao Ang's mansion tomorrow? ”

Yuan Yun smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if I take a stick to drive Ma Chao away, he will hold a grudge in his heart at most, and he will still go over to meet honestly tomorrow." ”

When Zhen Mi heard this, she knew that it must be a major military matter, so she immediately shut up and didn't ask again, it was best for Ma Chao to go, and now Yuan Lang was her and Qing'er's.

Zhen Mi was quiet, but Yuan Yun's whole mind began to spin, so he walked directly to the door.

If he helped Ma Teng open the barrier in Hanzhong, his iron cavalry could indeed go straight to Yizhou, but if he really did this, I am afraid that he would be labeled as a thief by the imperial court immediately.

No matter how Liu Zhang said it, he was also a descendant of the Han family, and his fief was not something that could be moved, so why did Ma Teng dare to do this?

Shaking his head, Yuan Yun felt that it was too early to think about these questions, if Ma Chao really appeared in Cao Ang's mansion tomorrow, it would show that they did have some ulterior plans, otherwise, with Ma Chao's temperament, how could he be obedient the next day after being driven away once.

Seeing that the courtyard was white, Yuan Yun stood at the door of the study and finally felt a trace of cold, and was about to return to the house, when he saw Cao Jie's ghost head come out.

After arriving at Yuan Yun's side, the girl who had already reached the end of her life immediately crossed her waist and said: "Why does Cao Chong learn faster than me, brother-in-law, you must have opened a small stove for him." ”

Yuan Yun covered his head with a headache, and said after a long time: "Sister Jie, when Xiao Chong was in math class, you had to follow Wen Ji to learn "The Female Ring", and said that this is where a woman's talent lies, what else can I say?" ”

Cao Jie snorted and said, "Then I don't care, my brother-in-law must give me make-up lessons from today." ”

"Make-up classes?" Yuan Yun looked dazed.

Cao Jie nodded affirmatively again: "Yes, make up the class, just the two of us!" ”
