The first volume was young and thin at the time Chapter 42 Talking about the country around the hearth

PS: Everyone, morning, hehe, routinely ask for recommendation votes, and throw too far away those BTs on the list......

Compared with the public halls and halls in the county party in front, the official residence behind the county party is a little small and elegant. At this moment, Cui Yuan, who heard the news and welcomed the group in, personally took an umbrella to protect Cui Jianxuan from the wind and snow, but said: "Lord Lang originally wanted to take advantage of the year ago to visit Eleven Lang in Lu's Thatched Cottage, and worship Lu Gong by the way, but it happened that Eleven Lang and Du Xiaolangjun came together, and Ming Gong was so happy." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Du Shiyi, who was served by another servant with an umbrella, and suddenly patted his head lightly with his left hand: "Look at my memory, I can teach Du Xiaolangjun to know that Du Xiaoniang was only received by my lady to the official residence this morning, who knew that Langjun was coming, this is not the most coincidental thing in the world?" ”

Du Shiyi was thinking about what Wu Jiu wanted, and at this moment, he was overjoyed when he heard that Du Sanniang was also here. Sure enough, just after entering the third gate, he saw that under the eaves of the dormitory over there, Du Sanniang was standing there holding the hand of the bamboo shadow and waiting, and when he saw him, his eyes suddenly showed an extremely happy expression.

If it weren't for a middle-aged woman next to her who said something, she almost couldn't help but wear brocade boots and go straight to the snow to greet her. Seeing this, he hurriedly quickened his pace, and when he got closer, he saw Cui Jianxuan saluting the woman, calling him Aunt Seven. He remembered hearing Cui Jianxuan mention that Cui Yunzhi's wife seemed to be from the Langya Wang family, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Meet Madame!" ”

Mrs. Wang helped Cui Jianxuan with a smile, and hurriedly called Du Shisanniang to help Du Shiyi up, and then said kindly: "It's all my own family, so I don't need to be polite." Today, I just asked Thirteen Niang to take Thirteen Niang, but I don't want Nineteen Lang and Eleven Lang to come together in the evening, this is really providential! The venison is already on the stove, and you can go inside to get rid of the cold, it's time for dinner! ”

Du Sanniang held Du Shiyi's hand tightly, and when Mrs. Wang, who had followed Cui Jianxuan, into the house, she took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, and hurriedly explained to her brother in a low voice: "Brother, it was Mrs. Wang who sent people to invite me many times, and I really refused to ......."

"It's okay, you live alone with Zhuying and a few of them at the foot of Junji Peak, and you are already lonely, and walking around Cui's house is also a proper communication." Speaking of this, Du Shiyi gently stroked the small and cute hanging hair on the left side of Du Shisanniang, and then said softly, "Originally, it was snowing heavily today, and I didn't want to go back to Dengfeng County, and I planned to go to the grass house under the Junji Peak to see you." Fortunately, he was pulled by Cui Shiyi, otherwise it would have been too late to regret it if he pounced there. So, you're on a good trip! ”

Du Sanniang was extremely happy by Du Shiyi's words, and couldn't help but put her head on her brother's arm. And Mrs. Wang, who was walking in front, inadvertently looked back, but caught a glimpse of Du Shiyi still carrying a heavy leather bag in her right hand, and couldn't help but groan thoughtfully. The next moment, she only heard Cui Jianxuan shouting: "Oops, this is finally warm...... I'm almost tired all the way to death! What about Aunt Seven, Twenty-five Lang and Seventeen Niang? ”

Although Cui Yunzhi has a concubine and a concubine, he only has a son and a daughter, and only the latter comes out to meet guests. At this time, Mrs. Wang took the lunch as if Du Shiyi was a good family, and smiled and commanded the maids beside her, and after a while, she saw the maidservants coming out with the two of them. In front of him was a round little fat man about seven or eight years old, who looked naΓ―ve and cute, and after coming up to greet him, he immediately came to Cui Jianxuan's side and screamed at an eleven brother, and when Cui Jianxuan casually threw him a worthless little wooden man, he immediately smiled as if he had won it. Cui Qiniang, who was lagging behind, was about the same age as Du Shisanniang, and compared with her younger brother, she looked a little shy, and after saluting, she hid behind Mrs. Wang, but she still looked at Du Shiyi curiously from time to time.

At this moment, Cui Yunzhi had not yet returned to the dormitory, and it was naturally inconvenient for dinner, so Mrs. Wang instructed the maid to put on the cheese, milk and four-color quiches. Although Du Shiyi was hungry, he saw Cui Jianxuan eating and munching unceremoniously without saying a word, he only felt that he was full without eating, and Zuihou simply used half a cup of milk, and more energy was used to deal with Mrs. Wang's seemingly casual, but actually more examined problems. Fortunately, this uncomfortable time was not too long, but after a while, I only heard a voice from the front, "Lord Lang is back". After a while, Cui Yunzhi, who was dressed in a civilian robe, strode into the house.

"I was about to go to the Lu Family's Thatched Cottage in person and ask Shiyi Lang when you would be able to return to the Eastern Capital a year ago, but I didn't expect you to come with Du Jiulang." Cui Yunzhi helped Cui Jianxuan up, and raised his hand to signal Du Shiyi to sit down and speak, and when he sat down on the main seat in the center, he glanced at his own son who was sitting in danger, and said with a smile, "Today is all my own family, familiar with informality, you might as well relax at will." ”

Cui Jianxuan, who was just barely kneeling, immediately moved one leg out from under his body, and hung down in front of the low couch very casually, as soon as he took the lead, Cui Xiaofat naturally followed, and Du Shiyi was naturally happy to change to sit cross-legged, only Mrs. Wang, Du Thirteen Niang, Cui Seventeen Niang, and the three women still knelt there elegantly, as if they didn't hear the casual and loose command. In a moment, the maidservants brought a food table. On each table is a set of white porcelain dishes, and the condiment plate contains pepper and salt grains, etc., but the vegetables are the same. Immediately after, he heard a noise outside, and it was three or four servant women who carried a shelf with roast deer on skewers into the house.

As soon as the thing entered the room, a burst of fragrance overflowed, and Cui Jianxuan seemed to respond to the four words of familiarity and informality, and sniffed vigorously, and his eyes lit up for a while. Du Shiyi found out coldly, and the little fat man Cui also followed Cui Jianxuan's example and took two deep breaths with his eyes closed, without noticing that Cui Yunzhi, who was on the top, was frowning. After sniffing hard a few times, Cui Jianxuan looked at Cui Yunzhi and said with a grin: "Uncle Seventh doesn't care if I pick first, right?" ”

"You're really welcome, and I don't know how to let Nineteen Lang and Thirteen Niang." Seeing that Du Shiyi owed a debt, Du Sanniang was also smiling, so he shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, you like to eat that piece yourself, pick it yourself!" ”

"Cut off the deer whip first!" Cui Jianxuan unceremoniously shouted such a sentence, and seeing that everyone else was dumbfounded, he smiled evilly, "Then present it to Uncle Seven!" ”

"Stinky boy!" Cui Yunzhi was angry all of a sudden, blurted out a laugh and scolded, and then sighed, "I thought you could learn more elegantly with Lu Gong, but you are still so open-mouthed!" ”

"Master Lu is about going with the flow, but there is not so much red tape."

Cui Jianxuan made a triumphant gesture, and saw one of the servants dressed as a cook glance at the master and the housewife, and finally carefully cut off the deer whip and presented it to the porcelain plate in front of Cui Yun with both hands. Despite this, Cui Yunzhi, who was regarded as the object of ridicule by his nephew in person, was interested in enjoying such an aphrodisiac in public, so he quietly put it aside.

Fortunately, Cui Jianxuan just asked for a piece of leg meat next, his son Cui Twenty-five Lang also drew a gourd and asked for leg meat, Du Shiyi asked for a piece of ribs, and Mrs. Wang cut a small piece of each for Du Shisanniang and Cui Shiqiniang to taste it in the posture of the main mother. At this time, Cui Yunzhi signaled to cut a piece of breast meat, and waved his hand to let the rest of the deer go down. At this moment, some people came up to serve all kinds of vegetables and vegetables, many of which are rare seasonal freshness in winter, plus a small cup of fresh fish soup, all kinds of dim sum, and a small bowl of white rice.

Although it is said that the food is silent, the Cui family obviously did not abide by those ancient rules for this meal. Everyone was eating and chatting, most of the time, the women were listening to the men's words, and Cui Xiaofat was too young to interject, and he always stared at Cui Jianxuan with adoration. And Du Shiyi naturally won't steal the limelight with Cui Shiyi Lang on the Cui family's territory, unless Cui Yunzhi asks himself, he will easily not speak. However, when Cui Yunzhi seemed to inadvertently mention a person's name, he suddenly paid attention.

"Lu Xianggong died in November, although Yuan Xianggong said that he had just worshiped the prime minister, but Yao Xianggong was sick again, and he had been recuperating. Cui Wei spoke while examining Cui Jianxuan's expression, "But Ziwei Province planned to send an edict of amnesty to the world, and the sage waved his pen and circled that Zhao Xu, and there was an uproar for a while. ”

Cui Jianxuan frowned when he heard this, and then said impatiently: "Uncle Seventh has nothing to say, what is this kind of court matter?" You're not one of those ministers in the political hall, and I haven't joined the government yet! ”

"Haha, probably because I read too much of these news in the public court during the day, and I forgot for a while that this is not with my subordinates."

Cui Yunzhi patted his head in self-defeat, and then didn't mention the topic just now. When it was getting late, he smiled and left Cui Jianxuan to live in the former guest room, but he empathetically let Du Shiyi and Du Shisanniang have two wings opposite each other in a small courtyard outside. It wasn't until the maidservants had brought a pair of children down that he rubbed his brows thoughtfully.

Mrs. Wang withdrew her maidservant, and immediately asked puzzledly, "Why did Qilang Shicai mention the important affairs of the imperial court?" ”

"Eleven Lang is this kind of character...... Now it seems that I was wrong. ”

Cui Yunzhi sighed, and then said softly, "The Cui clan has been inherited from the ancestors to the present, and it is the most leafy, with a total of ten branches, six branches of Qinghe Cui, and four branches of Boling Cui. I and Shiyi Lang's father are the same grandfather, and they both belong to the house of Yanling, Xuzhou. Although each generation has a patriarch, there is someone else who holds the real power in the clan. The generation of the first father, is the grandfather of Eleven Lang, my generation, should be the eldest Bo Tai of Shi Lang as the head of the house, but Shi Lang's father suddenly rose to prominence when he was in the Wei family, but the successor is weak, although the title is as high as the Duke of the country, after all, it is not as stable as the fourth brother Taizhi has been in the center. Now that I'm in Eleven Lang's generation, if I can know as soon as possible who this generation of people are cultivating with all our might, for Twenty-five Lang, I will be able to take many detours in the future. ”

Seeing that Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up, Cui Yunzhi sighed and said: "But don't worry, compared to the past when it was at the critical point of survival, if it is peaceful today, I don't want Twenty-five Lang to be in charge of the house in the future, I just want him to have a stable career and a full house of children and grandchildren." What's more, things are not certain in the first place, the sixth brother is not good, isn't it almost past the fourth brother? By the way, when Shiyi Lang was in the Eastern Capital, the children of the family all took a detour, but they were able to get along with Du Shijiu Lang, which shows that this Du Shijiu Lang is a little different. I am afraid that his people are not in the pool, do you know that Cui Yuan just reported something to me? ”
