Chapter 264: Pregnant woman, also surnamed Li
Compared with other ministers and doctors in the capital, the Li family is just an explosive household, except for Li Wei, who has the identity of a lifter, and others have nothing to do with the word culture.
Therefore, the door style is not as strict as that of a century-old family like the Lu family.
and blindly seeking to be lively and peaceful, but there are not so many rules. Therefore, people can move around freely in the outer yard.
There are too many people in the yard, and those with status can still mix in the house, and small people like Wu Jie can only do it themselves.
In fact, the arrival of Xiangyue, the popular Oiran, also caused some slight confusion in the outer residence of the Li Mansion, and many people who had been admiring it for a long time walked forward, trying to take a look from a distance, if they could say a word, but it was not worth the trip.
It is worthy of being an Oiran, the pie is very big, there are a lot of musicians, a few little maids, mothers-in-law or something, and there are many people.
There are too many people, but I can't see what Xiangyue looks like.
The predecessor of the Li Mansion originally belonged to Guo Xun, the Marquis of Wuding, and this person did not seem to be very famous in history. But in the history of classical China, he has a place in the history of China, and his greatest hobby is to engrave books, and he specializes in engraving and printing. The reason why "Water Margin" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can be well-known has a lot to do with his vigorous promotion.
In addition, this person also likes drama and has made great contributions to the development and popularization of Kunju.
Therefore, there are two stages in his yard, one large and one small.
Today, the competition between Caiyun and Xiangyue was arranged on a small stage.
Behind the small stage is another elegant courtyard, which is generally used as a resting place for musicians.
If the clouds arrive, they should be waiting inside.
So, Wu Jie took advantage of this chaos and walked inside with the people.
But as soon as he entered the courtyard, he was stopped by Xiangyue's maid, and said again and again, "Ladies and gentlemen, my lords, I will not be in good health, I can't see everyone, forgive my sins!" ”
But the crowd refused to leave, still looking straight into the room, hoping only to see the glimpse.
Wu Jie is not exempt from vulgarity, but after watching it for a long time, I still haven't seen Caiyun, and even the musicians and Yiyi under her haven't seen it.
I didn't feel a little anxious in my heart: could it be that I didn't come.
At this time, someone patted him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, it was Diao De, a Diao Ju man who had met in the teahouse before, and came to the capital to take the exam.
"It turned out to be Brother Diao." Wu Jie arched his hand at him.
Diao Si smiled and said: "Shizhen, I asked you to go with us to see Xiangyue, but you didn't go, what's the matter, I'm looking forward to it here." ”
Wu Jie smiled: "My Fair Lady, the gentleman is a good man, you can see it, can't I see it?" By the way, how did you get here, but you received an invitation from the Li Mansion? ”
"I'm just a small person, what kind of family is the Li family, how can I receive an invitation." Diao Sidao: "I came uninvited, mainly because I want to see Miss Shangxiangyue again." ”
Wu Jie said: "I'm not the same. ”
"Today, it's a creation, maybe the prince will come over." The courtyard was too crowded to speak, so Diao Si pulled Wu Jie towards the other courtyard and said, "Not only that, but Elder Xiaoge will also come over." ”
"Ah, Yan Shifan is also coming?" Wu Jie was a little surprised, scholars and doctors respected their identities and were generally reluctant to make friends with their relatives, but this Yan Shifan lowered his figure and came to congratulate Li Wei on his birthday, which was really unexpected.
But Diao De kept rubbing his hands, with a look of excitement: "Although the old man of Xiaoge is not successful, his poetry is first-class." He said that he came over today, he must be cheering for Xiangyue, if there are new poems coming out, I am also lucky, if I can see Xiao Yan Xianggong's new work, and I can hear Xiangyue's singing, it is really a great blessing in life! ”
Wu Jie was about to speak, but he saw a familiar figure flashing in the courtyard where Xiangyue was, and when he looked at it, it was Chen Hong, the governor of Dongchang.
The guy was dressed in civilian clothes and had a beard on his lips.
can let the factory of the East Factory go out in person, it seems that something terrible must happen in this Li Mansion.
Wu Jie was shocked, and he didn't want Chen Hong to see him, so he said a few words to Diao Sizhi, then said goodbye and walked towards a courtyard next to him.
But the Li family is an old mansion, and the layout inside is very complicated, which is a little more complicated than the Lu Mansion.
After walking for a while, I lost my way.
Seeing that the time was passing little by little, the lights were turned on everywhere, and the sky was darkened.
Wu Jie was a little troubled in his heart, it was not a way to go on like this, if he accidentally ran to the inner house, wouldn't he be regarded as a disciple?
Forget it, let's find a slave family or something to ask for directions, and ask him to lead me outside.
Coincidentally, at this time, I heard a little girl's voice: "Madame, go slowly, you are pregnant, if you fall, the slave can only find a rope and hang it clean." ”
"Guiyuan, you little girl, if you really hang yourself, I can't bear it." Another woman's voice sounded, louder than that longan, with a hint of majesty: "Mr. Wu Shizhen Wu said that if you are pregnant, you need to move around so that you will not have a difficult birth." ”
"In this way, what a little scholar said can make some sense, I think he is talking nonsense. However, madam, the imperial doctor said that your fetal position is not correct, and you are afraid of danger when you give birth in the future, and the slave is really worried, and he kneels in front of the Buddha statue every day to burn incense and pray for you. ”
"It's okay, don't be afraid, I can't die." The woman comforted Guiyuan, but when she thought of the situation during the difficult birth, her voice trembled a little.
Wu Jie was stunned, "Who is this woman, how do you know my name, when did I tell her that pregnant women need to move more so that they don't have dystocia?" ”
Curious, I couldn't help but look up.
But I don't want to hit my head on the horizontal branch of a magnolia tree, and make a noise.
"Who!" The two girls exclaimed at the same time.
Wu Jie had no choice, so he had to walk out generously, and said with a smile as he walked: "This Li Mansion is so big, I have lost my way, and I ask Mrs. to show me the way." ”
After speaking, he looked up, but "Ah! "A bang.
At the same time, the pregnant woman also said, "Ah! A voice shouted: "It turned out to be Mr. Shizhen." ”
This woman Wu Jie knew her, and she was the wife of the rich gentleman she met on the mountain during the Double Ninth Festival, and her surname seemed to be Li.
No, the surname is Li, and this is the Li Mansion again...... Wu Jie's body shook, as if he realized something.
