Chapter 15 Apricot Garden Competition
readx;
The Cold Food Festival is still passing, but a small part of Pingkangfang Zhongqu has made a sensation. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In the past, Guo Dalang, who was a little literate and talented, recognized a distant relative in Chang'an City and inherited the family property.
There are those who come to congratulate them, and there are those who envy them behind their backs.
Sister Ning and the others congratulated Guo Shan, and asked him where he was a distant relative.
Guo Shan could only talk nonsense casually, saying that who remembered the seven aunts and eight aunts clearly? It's just an elder, and the two are also teachers and friends. In the end, others left the field for their own safekeeping, and there was no inheritance.
Guo Shan is telling the truth half-truths and half-truths, and no one can question the huge field. A distant relative's excuse saved Guo Shan's trouble, otherwise how would he answer when people found out that Guo Shan's name was on a certain land deed and house deed and asked him why he had so many properties? Sent by a stupid old man? Guo Shan felt that saying this sentence itself was a brain-dead act and would be considered stupid.
suddenly became a little rich man from selling silk to make a living, not to mention that the people in the workshop didn't believe it, even his sister Tang Juan thought it was incredible.
However, the girl was a member of a big family earlier, and now she is just living a rich life again, so there is no discomfort in her life. But Guo Shan is different, he feels that everywhere is extremely boring.
There is no intention of moving out of Pingkangfang for the time being, in fact, in his opinion, living here with Sister Ning and Wang Susu is no different from living in Laitingfang, they are all from other people.
However, the house is still under renovation.
I can't complain about the old man.
If you don't live in the owner's house, don't I live in the old man? You can't be blind with the silver, but the maid and the servant have to use it. If there is no maid and servant, what kind of affairs can I take care of? You don't live in the owner's house, but we old men can live.
I really don't know if this old man is selfish or loyal, anyway, he is meticulous about Old Man Xu's words. Didn't you see the carriage parked in the alley? There are also one or two young Kunlun Nu, who are still said to be Kunlun Nu who can do kung fu.
Guo Shan wondered, before he recruited Kunlun Nu, he didn't feel that anyone had bullied him, could it be that if he recruited Kunlun Nu, someone would bully him and let Kunlun Nu bless him? Old man Xu really thinks that now is the era of hegemony in troubled times?
Guo Shan wasn't used to talking to Kunlun Nu who couldn't even talk, so he didn't talk to them much. The tall Kunlun slaves were very conscious of being slaves, and then again, they themselves were slaves who sold goods.
One or two Kunlun slaves, luxurious carriages and a few accompanying maids, the magnificent Guo Shan was embarrassed to go out.
This kind of nouveau riche behavior is very embarrassing, doesn't Old Man Xu know? How much money does it cost? If you old man Xu don't feel sorry, I feel sorry for you.
Kunlun Nu raised his whip, and the carriage swooped out.
Tang Juan was wearing new clothes, holding his brother's hand and leaning comfortably on his brother's shoulder, while Guo Shan was wearing a gorgeous costume and the walking dead sat in the carriage and swayed with the bumps of the carriage.
Conquering a person often starts with a person's habits. Guo Shan once thought so, so he couldn't escape what he thought.
For example, if you have money, you should pay it back, right? Yes, he really immediately repaid the few pennies owed to Wang Susu.
Well, I still used Old Man Xu's money to say that I didn't need it.
If you use it once, you will have a second time, for example, Tang Juan's fat powder is the lowest, you are so rich, as an older brother, why don't you change it to a better one for your sister? Are you just that?
Gotcha, let's change it
In this way, you will be a saint and end up being a slut.
Guo Shan feels that he is very cheap now, but he feels that he wants to cry now.
According to the old man's arrangement, be a rich kid and spend a life in a mess? Or did he follow his arrangement to enter the official career?
In fact, Old Man Xu gave him two choices, one is to rely on the industry left by Old Man Xu and then live comfortably and without worrying about food and clothing, which can be regarded as the friendship between the two people, and it can also be regarded as Old Man Xu's love for him.
There are also those who rely on the wealth of Old Man Xu, and seek famous teachers to learn martial arts in the future, and enter the career of Guangzong to glorify their ancestors. This is the capital given to him by Old Man Xu, so that he can study with peace of mind.
After all, studying and practicing martial arts is a very money-burning act at the moment.
Guo Shan is embarrassed, he is not worried about food and clothing now, he can study and then enter the office. But this kind of life, Guo Shan never thought about it before, although he said it, he let it go as a fart himself. And being a rich man, I haven't done this kind of thing.
Hit the horse into the Hibiscus Garden, which has long been crowded with people.
As one of the few royal gardens that ordinary people and relatives of the emperor can play, there are naturally many visitors to the Hibiscus Garden. Qingming after the Cold Food Festival itself is a festival of walking, and the imperial court graciously granted three days off and allowed no curfew. This cola spoiled the people of Chang'an City.
Shinong and industry gathered, and Wang Sun Guixuan traveled, such a scene can not be seen all the time.
In the past, Guo Shan also belonged to people who walked with their feet, but now that he is rich, it is different. Hao Nu beat his horse and galloped past, which blind Diao people dared to collide?
Guo Shan has a great sense of guilt, and his grandfather doesn't know how to whip himself in his dreams in the future. A moment ago, he was still scolding the evil old society, but now he has become a slave owner like Old Man Xu.
Yes, the slave owner is the slave owner.
The carriage stopped in the garden, and Guo Shan got out of the carriage.
The bell of the jade pendant on his waist rang, and according to him, it was in the way of carrying this item when he traveled. But the old man said, who doesn't bring this with the rich? Wearing a gorgeous dress without a jade pendant is a bit nondescript, and it is best to put a flower on the head to better reflect the bearing of the young man.
Guo Shan was angry at that time, and he was kind to your sister. What is my dignified man's flower arrangement, come out to sell?
If you don't bring anything, you can't afford to lose that person.
In the end, the old man had to compromise and seek perfection, and the two of them each retreated half, Guo Shan could no longer wear the previous ragged clothes, and he had to speak and act in accordance with the etiquette system, otherwise how would he enter the office in the future?
Guo Shan didn't dare to think about it yet, and the old man thought about it for him. Having said that, Guo Shan can only have face if he can enter the old man. There is a way for a person to ascend to heaven, Guo Shan has the ability to respect his identity as an old man, and the descendants born in the future can serve the princes and generals to be decent.
In a word, that is, he Guo Shan is no longer alive to live alone. You have to think about a family, and when you marry a lady and give birth to a son-in-law, you have to hold up the whole family. If you behave inappropriately, your words and deeds will be despised by the scholars, our house is not a businessman, the old owner is also a scholar, a scholar, you can't lose the face of the scholar.
Guo Shan didn't tell the old man, in fact, he had bought silk at the beginning.
"Sister, where are we going now?" suddenly became a nouveau riche, Guo Shan couldn't adapt to the life of a rich son.
According to the duty of the son of a gentleman in the script and in the book, he should have taken the money to spend money in the courtyard now, and was looking for a few married women to stage a hand-to-hand fight, so as to show the rich son's loveliness.
However, Guo Shan has never done this.
"Let's go over there and take a look, how many people are there?" Tang Juan begged Guo Shandao.
Guo Shanyi hesitated, turned his head and looked at the two Kunlun slaves with knives. Then he nodded, it seemed that the old man was very far-sighted, and he found such two black big brothers as bodyguards, and he was really much more down-to-earth.
Fresh clothes and angry horses, the days that I saw and envied in the Changsun Mansion a few days ago are now on myself. Guo Shan immediately felt that the treatment was different.
In the past, when I saw someone else's carriage, I wanted to hide, but now someone else is hiding from my own carriage.
Not to mention, when you are rich, others look at you with a sense of awe, and they are afraid that you are the little prince who jumped out of the palace.
Guo Shan is not the son of an official eunuch, nor does he have the temper of an official eunuch. His demeanor is still quite moderate, and he walks around step by step.
There are many people selling flowers in the garden, many people playing miscellaneous things, and there are many people who sell food.
Guo Shan, who was reluctant to buy the sesame oil-stained Hu cake before, now that he has the money, buy it.
With a wave of his hand, he ordered the old man to wrap more than a dozen baked cakes in paper and find someone to hold them. I opened the paper and began to gnaw on it, and before I finished choking, I immediately saw the gluttony that I had seen before but was not willing to taste.
Buy.
With a wave of his hand, each servant and the Kunlun slave were asked to eat and drink.
Looking at the food given by a group of people, which master of the family ran out and mixed up with the servants to eat?
Guo Shan didn't have this awareness, the old man gritted his teeth when he saw it, and secretly said that the son is too child-like, and he doesn't know the difference between respect and inferiority? Pulling Guo Shan's sleeve, the old man gave full play to Wei Zheng's spirit and spoke out to advise.
In fact, this old man just relied on the old man to sell the old, and he relied on mixing with the old man Xu for two years and commanding Guo Shan, the young owner. Guo Shan was very angry in his heart, and he knew that this old man lacked heart. Yes, will you not eat it?
If you don't eat it, you won't eat it.
"Xiaojuan, where are you going to play now?"
Tang Wandong looked around and whispered, "Brother, isn't Sister Su Su going to be better than Wen Dou?" ”
Guo Shan sighed and said, "I've been busy for the past two days, and I forgot about it." He glared at the old man fiercely, it was this old thief who was annoyed for two days, and he almost forgot about Wang Susu.
"Drive the horses, find someone." As soon as he said go, the old man sent the servants to inquire around about the news of the 'everyone competition', Guo Shan and Tang Juan got into the carriage, and the group drove to the apricot garden.
The apricot orchard has flower beds, flower walls and shadow walls. There is a verandah in the forest, and the verandah is full of green trees on the left and right. Lanterns hang from verandahs, and even from some tree trunks. Seeing that it was getting late, the officials in the Hibiscus Garden immediately took wax and lit the lamp. For a while, the Hibiscus Garden was like a spark, which pushed the people's interest in playing to another gaochao.
It was the first time for Guo Shan to see such a lively scene, and he saw some candle-holding maids surrounded by little ladies who didn't know which one they were playing in the garden. The women in red and green, the ladies of the rich and noble families, straightened the glasses of a group of conceited and talented gentlemen.
Here, a poor scholar in a white shirt began to sing, 'Apricot Garden in Late Spring, Singing among White Flowers'
Looking at this scholar who was screaming with his neck pulled, Guo Shan despised it. What are you calling when the girls are gone? Do you really think there will be a live version of the glamorous story of 'Rich Miss Supporting Poor Talent'?
You sang and I appeared, not only this show began to indulge in singing. Almost all the readers in the apricot orchard began to raise their voices, or spread pen and ink on the stone table. A group of people seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and they all agreed to show their talents here.
The old man looked at his young owner with resentment, and looked enviously at those talented people who could recite poetry. I fantasize that one day my young owner can also chant such a sentence or two of poetry, and then I can also touch the nobility of a scholar.
Guo Shan is not extravagant, he is just very angry now.
I haven't seen Wang Susu after walking around the apricot orchard for a long time, and I really don't know where their competition will take place.
It's a pity that this is the Tang Dynasty, if it's a later generation, where does it take so much trouble to find someone? A phone call can solve the problem in minutes.
When I was tired of walking, I simply didn't look for it.
The maid who held the lamp found a pavilion for her young owner, spread a mat in the pavilion and sat down.
The people next to him knew at a glance that this was a rich and noble family, and they couldn't afford to provoke him.
The old man stood behind his young owner with his head held high, looking like the chief manager from the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The two Kunlun slaves stood behind Guo Shan with knives in their hands, looking at the people around them vigilantly.
"At night, wine, drink in front of you. Life can be so happy. Guo Shan immediately asked the old man to bring the food, and then invited the old man and Tang Juan to eat together.
The old man glanced at the unsightly sitting posture of his young owner again, and then glanced enviously at the other pavilions, where the scholars were kneeling on the ground and politely pouring slow drinks.
Hey, the gap. The old man was very sad and indignant, and felt that what the old owner said was right. Young owners, it's really different.
