Looking up, a middle-aged man walked in outside the door. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

I have to say that the samurai family also has an extremely good bloodline. It can be seen from Wu Yuanqing's appearance that he must have been a handsome man when he was young. Although he looks a little older now, he has a beard under his forehead and a long beard up to his neck. It looks like a bit of a middle-aged uncle's charm.

He was wearing the usual clothes and robes used by men in the Tang Dynasty, but what made Helan Minzhi feel a little surprised was that his clothes were mainly crimson, supplemented by dark yellow. Although it is worn on the body, it looks very capable and attractive. In particular, the dark yellow color can reflect an invisible deterrent as an official.

But this yellow is the usual royal color, even the exclusive color. How dare this Wu Yuanqing use it?

Helan Minzhi's brows furrowed tightly, but he was not surprised to see his mother and grandmother, maybe yellow was not the exclusive color of the royal family in the Tang Dynasty.

However, if you are the emperor, you will definitely not like others to use yellow. And none of the portraits of important ministers in the court that can be left in the world in the Tang Dynasty are dressed in yellow clothes.

Just from the fact that he wore clothes, it can be seen that this person's political IQ is very weak.

Hearing Wu Yuanqing's words, Wu Shun hurriedly stood up and saluted him. After all, now it is more or less a parasitic fence, so I have to be cautious.

"My sister has seen my eldest brother, but I haven't seen her for many years, and my eldest brother is well?"

Seeing Wu Shun saluting himself, the corners of Wu Yuanqing's mouth rose slightly. But he stood in the middle of the room and looked at Wu Shun, as if he was looking carefully, but he didn't say a word. The whole atmosphere was slightly awkward, the smile on Wu Shun's face was still there, and Shi Li's movements were also deadlocked, but there was nothing unnatural, just waiting for Wu Yuanqing to speak.

Seeing his attitude, Helan Min's heart sank, and a fierce light appeared in his eyes.

Although it has only been a few days, from the bottom of his heart, he already regards Wu Shun as his biological mother. It is unforgivable to be humiliated just after arriving home.

But Helan Minzhi didn't have a seizure on the spot, because he knew that he couldn't do anything now. He's just an eight-year-old kid.

"Auntie, is this an uncle? It's so rude, didn't you teach your mother, someone talks to you, and you have to respond immediately? Tong Yin broke the awkward atmosphere.

But what was alleviated was only Wu Shun's embarrassment, and the gentle and clever use of the child's innocence and ignorance made Wu Yuanqing fall into an embarrassing atmosphere.

"The son is not allowed to talk nonsense, and he should bring his sister to salute his uncle." While speaking, Wu Shun didn't care about Wu Yuanqing at all, stood up straight, stood up and walked towards Helan Minzhi and Minyue, and just hung Wu Yuanqing out.

When Wushun is easy to bully? Although Wu Yuanqing has been rolling in the officialdom for so many years, it can be seen with just one piece of clothing, but it is just the shadow of the ancestors. didn't see that the woman in front of her was no longer the little sister who was bullied by you back then.

"Hmph" snorted heavily, Wu Yuanqing just wanted to say something. Yang suddenly spoke: "I don't see you coming to me on weekdays, why did you suddenly come here today?" ”

slapped him in the face again, and Mrs. Yang never had to use her hands to beat people.

But this was only smoked secretly, just because of his attitude just now, Helan Minzhi was going to draw it out and whip it up. So he spoke again, still in the same naïve tone that he didn't understand anything, tilting his head and looking at Wu Shun: "Ah Niang, Zhi'er remembers that Mr. said that Mencius has a saying, called filial piety, which is great respect for relatives." Why did my grandmother say that my uncle didn't come to see her on weekdays? Does that mean that my uncle is not a filial son? ”

You must know that no matter which dynasty it was in ancient times, the most important thing for these officials was a filial piety. If there is a rumor in the market about an official who is not filial, then I am afraid that this career will end here. The reputation of this unfilial son can't be carried, and he can't afford it.

"You..." Furious, Wu Yuanqing blurted out, but when he saw Helan Minzhi's appearance, he instantly took it back. just flicked his sleeves heavily: "Big sister, take care of your children." ”

After that, he looked at the Yang family: "The eldest sister just arrived today, and I, as the head of the family, naturally want to come and see." I have already instructed my subordinates to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the eldest sister today, and I will invite my mother and eldest sister to go to the front hall for dinner later. He arched his hand and walked out directly.

After seeing him leave, Wu Shun suddenly smiled, and then gently scratched Helan Minzhi's little nose: "Okay, the little mouth is powerful enough, the four-rank master above the dignified court will let you go." ”

Helan Minzhi instantly showed an innocent expression: I'm very cute, I don't know anything, I'm wronged, God knows why he left.

Scratching his head slightly, Wu Shun had a sweaty expression. Then the mother and son laughed, which made Helan Minyue a little confused, and she didn't know what her brother and A-Niang were laughing at. But for her, it doesn't matter.

After a while, Yang stood up: "Let's go, Shun'er, let's go to the front hall for dinner." Two servants came, and they hugged themselves and Minyue. I have to say that Helan Minzhi is still a little embarrassed to be held and walked by such an old age.

After walking a little effort, I entered the dining room.

This is also the first time Helan Minzhi saw the Tang aristocratic officials dine. Several servants went to and from the hall, and the whole room was very empty. A larger table is placed in the upper hand, the official owner's dining table. Secondly, there are these six small pairs of opposites.

On each table are the same size of porcelain with lids, bowls, plates and other cutlery.

Mrs. Yang did not sit down on the upper hand, but sat down on the first small table on the left-hand side. Wu Shun was opposite her, and Helan Minzhi and Min Yue sat next to Wu Shun in the small table under the servants' costumes. Originally, Minyue also had to have a separate position, but Helan Minzhi stayed. My sister is still taking care of herself.

After waiting for a while, Wu Yuanqing arrived. It seems that he is the head of the family, and even Mrs. Yang has to wait for him. As a later generation, I didn't feel that there was anything very wrong, but Mrs. Yang's face was very gloomy, but she didn't have a seizure.

Kneeling on the blanket, Wu Yuanqing waved his hand, and the servant standing behind everyone stepped forward to lift the lid and remove it.

Lamb, stewed lamb soup, roasted leg of lamb. Chicken, a whole chicken stewed in a soup bowl. It's steaming, which means that it has indeed just been made. Fish, cut into sashimi. There's a little bit of coolness. There is a small dish next to the leg of lamb with whole peppercorns on top. And there was even a dish of cabbage. It was a relief to have a plate of cabbage on this table full of meat.

Pouted slightly, it was only today that I really saw it.

Walking all the way, although there was no case of frozen bones on the so-called road, it can be seen from the post house alone that the life of the people in the Tang Dynasty was not very rich. The diet is also very monotonous, mainly staple food, rarely meaty on weekdays, and some are mainly pork, not to mention vegetables.

Meat was common in the Tang Dynasty, but vegetables were not. Especially in this season, vegetables can only be seen on the table of aristocratic families. Don't think about the poor, that's simply impossible.

As for pepper, at this time, the Tang Dynasty had just existed. In order to season, to remove the fishy smell of mutton. For the poor, it's a luxury. Don't even think about it.

Looking at this table of things, it really reminded Helan Minzhi what kind of place this is.

Aristocrats can be unscrupulous and eat and drink lavishly. But the people can only struggle on the poverty line. This is the so-called prosperous Tang Dynasty, the so-called prosperous era, I am afraid that ordinary people have just been able to eat enough! The table was full, and the chef didn't know what method to use, and the stewed mutton was much less fishy. And the roasted leg of lamb does not have this breath. Originally, Helan Min's appetite was greatly aroused, but at this time, he was more or less unable to eat.

At this time, the servant filled a glass of wine from behind him to Yang and Wu Shun.

Wu Yuanqing raised his glass: "Today is considered to be a dust wash for the eldest sister, and the eldest sister is welcome to visit." I'll do it first for respect. Then he raised his hand and drank the contents of the cup. The second brother has been busy with official business recently, and I only learned about the eldest sister's visit when I went to the house, so I didn't inform him today. I'll let you know tomorrow. ”

Seeing that he seemed to have suddenly changed as a person, Wu Shun was very strange, but he still happily raised the wine glass in his hand and toasted him.

The atmosphere became very harmonious, but perhaps none of them captured Wu Yuanqing's visit, instead of going home. After all, it is the guests who visit, and the guests who must go.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.

Wu Yuanqing suddenly asked, "I don't know how Brother Yue Shi is now?" ”

The wine glass in Wu Shun's hand suddenly stopped, and his eyes turned red in an instant. But it didn't flow down. With a choked voice, he replied to Wu Yuanqing: "Zhi'er's grandfather has passed away." ”

Helan Minzhi was also a little stunned when he saw Wu Yuanqing, knowing that he didn't know before. It should be that the Yang family did not tell him, and the news spread in the Tang Dynasty was not developed, so naturally there was no way to know.

"Then I don't know when the eldest sister will return?" Asked lightly. Not to mention Helan Minzhi, even Mrs. Yang was furious, and the wine glass in her hand slammed it on the table.

When his brother-in-law passed away, he didn't even ask a question, and he wanted to force his sister to return, which is no longer something that can be described by a ruthless person.

Without waiting for Wu Shun to answer, Mrs. Yang looked straight ahead and said silently: "Yue Shi has passed away, and Shun'er doesn't want to stay in that sad place, so I decided to let Shun'er stay at home in Chang'an." It just so happens that the son can also go to the official school to study. ”

"Oh? When did the mother decide? Have you consulted with me? There was also a flash of anger in his eyes, and Wu Yuanqing's tone instantly became very indifferent to the Yang family.

"A trivial matter, can be discussed? You are busy with official duties every day, and these little things are the decisions of your mother. ”

"A trifle? Hum. I wonder if my mother has ever heard of a daughter who followed her brother after her husband's death? Besides, I remember that Brother Yue Shi has a knighthood, right? A hereditary title, which should not be inherited by his son? What do you say about staying in Chang'an. ”
