Chapter 34: Dancing to Clarify the Shadow 6
Duanyang is probably the most prosperous festival after the Qingming Festival, so there is still one day, and the capital is already hot. novel
Wormwood has long been hung in every household, and sachets of herbs can be seen everywhere, and the whole capital can feel how rich and impressive the upcoming Duanyang will be.
The small courtyard has been busy since yesterday, whether it is the servants or the masters, they are very busy, but Li Wan'er, who is busy on weekdays, is happy to be idle today.
Although it was a little early today, he was still sitting in the pavilion chatting with Cai'er at this time, although Shen Tianjun would interject a few words from time to time, in general, it was quite leisurely.
Cai'er has not been out of the door since she came to the capital, except for the shop on the side of the smoke building, but it is also rare to read some books in her leisure, and her life is not bad.
After all, he came from a big family, and he has been following Li Wan'er, and his reading is probably influenced by his own young lady, but more often he is also raised by the literary style of the capital.
There are many literati in the capital, but it is more prosperous than Suzhou. Although there are all kinds of celebrities in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are more literati in the capital who have only flourished in recent years, and there are more young literati in the capital.
"In fact, the smoke building also goes to some people every day...... I often deal with these scholars, but I have learned that sour and rotten atmosphere...... So much so that I feel uncomfortable without reading......"
Seeing that her little maid was now a little particular about her speech and behavior, Li Wan'er was also quite happy in her heart, but she was worried that she would not be suitable if she got married, but now it seems that she has really thought too much.
"Scholars always talk about family and state affairs...... We women still like those magical and strange things, no wonder I don't know how to learn and ......."
Saying this, Li Wan'er continued to joke again: "But a few days ago, I saw a legend of Zhiwei in the study...... I thought it was pulled in the study before, but I didn't expect it to be wordless looking...... It really made me laugh. ”
Cai'er couldn't help laughing, and only said: "I heard the boss over there in the study say that my uncle has always liked to read some miscellaneous books...... It's really curious. ”
Li Wan'er smiled slightly and sighed lightly: "The study room is now full of books from the West...... He didn't know what the books were talking about, but he read them with great energy...... A few days ago, I was holding an agromy book, saying that I wanted to cultivate high-quality grapes...... I said this shouldn't be left to the farmer, what are you going to do...... Guess how he answered? ”
Cai'er couldn't help but be stunned, and asked curiously, "Uncle, what did he say?" ”
Li Wan'er was slightly annoyed and said: "What did he say, 'science and technology are the primary productive forces'......"
Cai'er suddenly laughed and said, "I've heard Yue'er mention it before, and my uncle often says strange things that people can't understand...... I didn't expect it to be the case. ”
"Yo, I'll see who's talking bad about people behind their backs."
Just as the two girls were chatting and pushing the cups and changing the lamps, Shen Wuyan happened to walk out of the kitchen, looked at the two people sitting leisurely in the pavilion, and couldn't help but say with a straight face: "Cai'er has lost weight when she came to the capital...... Isn't Wang Tian treating you badly? ”
Cai'er knew that Shen Wuyan had always been gentle, and the question at this time was just a joke, but she also pretended to be very sad, and cried: "What my uncle said is not wrong at all...... Wang Tian, he won't give me food......"
Shen Wuyan immediately laughed, and only said, "Wang Tian, this is good for you, he is afraid that you will lose weight if you are too fat...... Hundreds of years later, you'll know it's better to eat less. ”
"Uncle is talking nonsense again......" Cai'er couldn't help pursing her lips, watching Shen Wuyan leave with a smile, and then said, "Does Miss think my uncle will marry Yue'er?" ”
Li Wan'er, who originally had a smile on her face, listened to Cai'er's question, her smile gradually faded, and then a trace of sadness flashed, she knew that Cai'er and Yue'er were fellow villagers, and they were actually sisters over the years.
Although she married Wang Tian, she still didn't forget the poor little girl, and it was inconvenient to ask before, but it was rare to have this opportunity at this time, so she took the opportunity to ask, which was reasonable.
Li Wan'er sighed and said in a low voice: "Before, it was actually decided that Yue'er would be included in the second room at the beginning of the year...... It's just that you also know the situation over there, so you didn't mention it......"
Since Yue'er was Shen Wuyan's maid in the room, she promised Shen Wuyan that she should have been, if she was in the next home, after the big room passed the door, she would probably be included in the room.
It's just that Shen Wuyan's side is a little special, so he can only wait like this for the rest of the month.
After a pause, Li Wan'er continued: "Speechless is really different from the man next to her, but Yue'er can't ...... Cai'er can rest assured that she will let Wuyan have sex with Yue'er within this year......"
Cai'er actually seems to be just mentioning it casually, but there is a lot of it inside, the little maid has been by her side since she was a child, and Li Wan'er can see what she wants to say.
It's just that she still feels that Shen Wuyan's side has not moved for a long time, and she did it deliberately, but she made Yue'er wait so hard, but it is not easy to say it directly, so she just knocks on the side like this.
Cai'er was also a little surprised, she really didn't expect that this was Shen Wuyan's question inside. That uncle is a good person, with a good temper, talented, and listens to Li Wan'er very much.
So I guessed that Li Wan'er was unwilling, and Shen Wuyan couldn't refuse, so he kept dragging it out like this. At this time, it seemed that it was Shen Wuyan dragging it.
"It's really heart-wrenching over there...... She's so young at this age...... However, I heard that she left two letters......"
"A letter." Li Wan'er's eyes were a little flustered, and she hurriedly said: "The letter is written to the speechless ...... But I don't know what it is. ”
I was just going to change the topic, but I didn't expect Li Wan'er's movement to be so big, but it made Cai'er stunned for a while, and she muttered for a while before she hurriedly responded: "It was Wang Tian who mentioned it once...... That's probably because I'm mistaken. ”
Li Wan'er nodded and said no more. After a moment of silence, he continued, "Tell me about you...... How does it feel to come to Beijing...... It's much hotter here than Suzhou......"
Cai'er had a deep understanding, nodded heavily, and sighed bitterly: "It's colder than Suzhou in winter, so you can burn the brazier more vigorously...... Summer is really hard, just sitting there, sweating all over...... It's really uncomfortable......"
Li Wan'er couldn't help laughing and said, "Then how about you and Wang Tian...... runs a shop in the capital, and he has always been cold and talkative...... Isn't it boring to be together. ”
"Miss, that's right......" Cai'er showed a look of resentment and said bitterly: "When I talk to him, he is often stunned and doesn't answer...... If I don't speak, he won't talk to me...... I'm in charge of the business......"
Li Wan'er had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said softly: "Then this is a little bad...... I'll let you talk about him without words another day...... What about that......"
As she spoke, Li Wan'er blinked her eyes slightly and stared at Cai'er, but Cai'er felt furious in her heart, and couldn't help whispering: "Which aspect?" ”
Li Wan'er immediately frowned and snorted softly: "Still pretending...... You two have been married for so long, why don't you have children......"
"This ......" Cai'er's face was suddenly flushed, probably thinking of the warmth in a certain night, her heartbeat gradually increased a lot, and she couldn't help but reply in a low voice: "It's still ...... Yes. ”
"What else is it?" Li Wan'er didn't want to ask more, so she just snorted, and then said, "I didn't say that I would get together in Hanyan Building this year...... The people who went were all well-educated literati...... Let you take advantage of the opportunity......"
"It's up to the shopkeeper to take care of it......" Cai'er replied.
Compared with the leisure here, Shen Wuyan is really bored there, firstly, the chef in the kitchen has never been in line with his own mind, and secondly, the people who have gone out have not come back yet.
Shen Wuyan, who was pacing in the study, sighed a few times before he heard the familiar footsteps, so he quickly opened the door and asked repeatedly, "How is it......?"
Wang Tian walked into the study, sighed lightly, and said, "Under the guidance of that drunkard, I finally found Yang Xian......."
"Found it...... Where are the people? Shen Wuyan hurriedly asked.
Wang Tian looked bitter and said with a wry smile: "I waited for the night to rescue that Yang Xian...... Na Cheng thought, he actually resisted and didn't go with me, and said that you want to harm him, no way......"
"Idiot, I want to harm him, just kill him directly, why save him......" Shen Wuyan was even more anxious in his heart, and said angrily: "I really don't know how Yang Bo raised such a stupid grandson." ”
Wang Tian nodded and said, "Not only did he not go with me, but he also shouted that there were assassins...... There were many families in the family, so I had to leave first, and I couldn't bring him back after all. ”
Shen Wuyan just nodded, and said in a deep voice: "It's okay, I think it was Wan Cong who told Yang Xian that I wanted to kill him, and he was like this...... But now that we know that the two are related...... On the night of Duanyang, you can know what that Wan Da Gong is playing......"
Wang Tian nodded slightly, and then said, "While waiting, I saw a few people enter the house...... Looking at the servant who pretended to be the concubine in the Pony's house......"
"The ...... of the Pony Mansion" Shen Wuyan frowned slightly, and muttered softly: "How did the Pony get in touch with the Wan family...... It shouldn't be like this......"
"Do you want to go to the Horse Mansion?" Wang Tian said in a low voice.
Shen Wuyan waved his hand, with a serious face, and only said: "After the festival, take a good rest, eat zongzi and race dragon boats...... Intrigue matters, let go of ...... first"
"Oh......" Wang Tian was stunned for a moment, then clenched his fists and turned to leave.
Shen Wuyan couldn't help laughing himself, then let out a long sigh and muttered, "There was also a literary meeting in Duanyang when I first came...... It's a pity that Wang Zhenming...... It's a pity for Zhou Yan...... But if you calculate it like this, it's actually been ten years......"
……
As soon as silence had returned to the courtyard, I suddenly remembered a burst of singing, which seemed to come from the study, completely out of tune, but it sounded good.
"Ten years ago......"
