Chapter 12: A Spring Outing
Winter goes to spring, the ice and snow melt, the mountains are verdant and vibrant, and the world is thriving.
Wuji Zhen family brewing workshop in the beginning of spring to complete the first batch of new year's wine, different from the past is that this time the Zhen family brewed the wine fragrant thousands of miles, there are good people rumors that the Zhen family has made a thousand years of wine, is God to see the Zhen family is kind and charitable, specially gifted to the Zhen family.
When the spring flowers bloom, the mountains are full of flowers, and the three horses gallop on the fields by the mountains and rivers, and the men's bold laughter is fluttering in the wind.
"Yuan Zhi, if you haven't been active for a long time, with your surname of a young ranger traveling all over the world, I'm afraid it's suffocated." Zhen Yu raised his horsewhip and once again let the good horse under his crotch speed up his pace.
Xu Shu also patted the horse to speed up, galloping in the pride of the air, and said loudly: "I Xu Shu has two major preferences in this life, one is to talk about the past and the present with talented people in the world, and the other is to gallop on horseback, the world is so big, there is no place where I Xu Shu can't go." Hahaha. ”
"You two, slow down!"
Xu Shu and Zhen Yu were driving in front, and when they heard Guo Jia's angry shouts from behind, the two looked at each other and smiled, and whipped the horsewhip even harder, seeing that they were getting farther and farther away from Guo Jia.
Guo Jia, who was behind the two, was helpless, not because he was not good at equestrianism, but because he had scruples, at this moment he was still sitting with Zhen Jiang in his arms, if he rashly speeded up, he was afraid that Zhen Jiang would make a mistake, so he could only watch Xu Shu and Zhen Yu drift away.
"Fengxiao, you let me down, the carriage of my sisters is behind, I'm waiting for them here, you catch up with the eldest brother." Zhen Jiang leaned on Guo Jia's chest, his face was crimson all the time, although he was reluctant at the moment, he didn't want to let Guo Jia fall behind because of himself.
Guo Jia dragged the reins with one hand, wrapped Zhen Jiang's thin willow waist with the other hand, and wrapped it inward, so that Zhen Jiang was more closely attached to him, sniffing the fragrance that penetrated into his heart, Guo Jia leaned in Zhen Jiang's ear and said softly: "Miss Zhen, your good brother deliberately left me behind with Yuan Zhi." ”
The flustered Zhen Jiang asked shyly, "Why?" ”
"Miss Zhen, are you pretending to be stupid or are you really stupid? Your good eldest brother has already sold you to me Guo Fengxiao in his heart, and now he is deliberately creating an opportunity, not for me Guo Fengxiao and his relatives Fang Ze. ”
Zhen Jiang looked back and saw the smile in Guo Jia's eyes, and suddenly felt ashamed, and gently patted Guo Jia's hand holding the reins and leaned against Guo Jia's chest, and murmured: "Fengxiao, I'm not dreaming, right?" Since I said goodbye to Yecheng, I often fantasize about when I will be able to meet you again, but I didn't think that I could travel with you on horseback, Fengxiao, do you really have me in your heart? ”
Guo Jia laughed loudly when he heard this, and said jokingly in Zhen Jiang's ear: "Can you and I ever meet for the first time?" I said that the daughters of the Zhen family all have the appearance of a closed moon and a shy flower, and since I, Guo Fengxiao, dare to climb over the wall and enter the hospital to get a glimpse of the beauty, if I have bad intentions, no one in your Zhen family can stop me, Miss Zhen, if I am greedy for your beauty, why do I need to visit now? Then you will have a long-cherished wish. ”
Zhen Jiang's face was red when he heard this, his body was hot, he leaned on Guo Jia's arms and was weak, his eyes were like water, he looked at Guo Jia with his head held high and said tenderly: "Fengxiao is always in such a dissolute state, I know that Fengxiao is a gentleman, but I don't put the worldly etiquette in my eyes." ”
Guo Jia was in love, and couldn't help but hold Zhen Jiang in his arms harder, lowered his head and sighed in her ear: "Whoever knows me, Jiang Er is the only one." I have a good relationship with your brother, but he can't see through me Guo Jia as well as you. ”
Zhen Jiang raised his Qianqian jade arm and hooked Guo Jia's neck, and after the two of them had been grinding for a long time, Zhen Jiang asked in a coquettish voice: "Fengxiao, my second brother has been appointed as the Taishou of Zhongshan State, and after he settles down in political affairs, I want to open a school in Wuji County to accept the sons of homeless people and orphans to practice education in the school." Do you think so? ”
Guo Jia, who was slightly surprised, looked at Zhen Jiang and asked hesitantly, "Why does Jiang Er have this idea?" ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhen Jiang's mouth, and he pretended to be serious and said: "I heard that there is a great good man in Yingchuan, who helped refugees a few years ago and personally educated the son of that refugee. ”
Guo Jia raised his eyes to look at the sky, the blue sky and white clouds, the vastness, he asked calmly: "Jiang'er, do you know why I want to teach that poor son?" ”
Zhen Jiang only knew that this was a great good thing, but he never looked deep to think about it, and when he heard it, he asked: "Isn't Fengxiao's move still meaningful?" ”
When she wants to educate the people to open up the wisdom of the people, this teaching and educating people is nothing more than to let ordinary people understand things.
Guo Jia said with a straight face: "Now that the Han Dynasty is declining, the situation has reached the point where it cannot be delayed, the court is dim and not to talk about it, the Central Plains and the northern states and counties are full of displaced people, among which the most serious places are the rich places of my Han Dynasty, and the parents who serve here are all scholars and princes recommended by the wealthy families, up to the assassin Shi Taishou, down to the county order, if they can put the people first and give the people a way to live, the bureau will not be nervous to this point now." And I take in the poor children, and teach them with all I have learned, firstly, they come from humble backgrounds, and if they can set foot in the official career in the future, they will be able to sympathize with the people, and secondly, when the troubled times are coming, I will do my best to accommodate them, I do not want them to become dry bones on the roadside, God has the virtue of a good life, and I can save as much as I can. ”
Zhen Jiang was deeply moved, and said movingly: "Fengxiao, if there are half of the self-proclaimed virtuous people in the world, how can the people be displaced." I will uphold the ambition of filial piety, so that those poor children will have a few more talents who are close to the people and love the people. ”
"The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and I don't know what they will achieve in the future, but their origins will at least make them treat the people with pity and compassion."
"Fengxiao, their hard work, they will understand, and one day in the future, they will definitely repay you with actions. I will also accompany you and watch that day come. ”
Guo Jia hugged Zhen Jiang tightly and said emotionally: "Having a wife like this is a great blessing for me Guo Fengxiao in this life." ”
Snuggled in Guo Jia's arms, Zhen Jiang shook his head lightly and said, "Fengxiao, you and I will get married in three years, and I will only be your concubine." After that, his face was slightly gloomy, no one wanted to be a concubine, and Zhen Jiang was no exception.
But Guo Jia laughed loudly and said: "Jiang'er, I said before that you knew me Guo Jia, but now I Guo Jia is wrong, and I don't pay attention to the secular etiquette, I said that you are my wife, and you will never be my Guo Jia's concubine!" ”
Zhen Jiang was fascinated when he heard this, and leaned against Guo Jia, unable to calm down the excitement in his heart.
At noon, on the bank of green mountains and green waters, Guo Jia, Xu Shu, Zhen Yu brothers and sisters dismounted and came to a quiet place, Guo Jia saw that there were fish in the river, so he took off his shoes and socks, lifted the three-foot Qingfeng barefoot down the river, and pierced the river with a sword, and when it was raised again, the tip of the sword picked up a swaying and struggling river fish.
Xu Shu and Zhen Yu both smiled bitterly, but they didn't expect that Guo Fengxiao really wanted to do it, so the two glanced at each other, and tacitly followed the river to fish.
Zhen Jiang sat on a big rock by the river, smiling brightly at the three people who were catching fish and shrimp in the river.
Not long after, Guo Jia and the three of them went ashore with a full load, Zhen Yu set up a bonfire, Xu Shu disemboweled, and Zhen Jiang took out a list from their bags and spread it on the grass together, just at this time a carriage in the distance came to the front under the escort of four guards, Guo Jia and Zhen Jiang greeted him.
Zhen Tuo, Zhen Dao, Zhen Rong The three sisters got off the carriage, Zhen Tuo and Zhen Dao were still sighing at the beautiful scenery here, while Zhen Rong ran to Guo Jia leisurely, opened his arms and said coquettishly: "Brother Fengxiao, hug." ”
Guo Jia went down to pick her up, and joked at Zhen Rong, who was smiling: "Rong'er, you are getting heavier and heavier, Brother Fengxiao can't hold you anymore, if you still let people hold you in the future, you can only find your husband." ”
Zhen Rong wrapped his hands around Guo Jia's neck and said flatly: "Brother Fengxiao is Rong'er's husband, and he will always hold Rong'er." ”
Zhen Jiang couldn't cry or laugh, Zhen Tuo and Zhen Dao also covered their mouths and smiled, came to Guo Jia, and saluted generously: "Brother Fengxiao." ”
"Hey, come out to play, don't be restrained, you also know that Brother Feng Xiao likes to be free, if it's still like this, I won't take you with me next time." Guo Jia walked towards the carriage with Zhen Rong in his arms, smiled and nodded to the four guards, and then took several jars of wine and dishes from the carriage with the four guards.
Everyone sat on the ground by the green water in the mountains and fields, the guards enjoyed the fine wine and wine that had just come out of the Zhen family while grilling river fish, Xu Shu and Zhen Yu went into the mountains to hunt, and returned with a full load after a while.
Guo Jia sat cross-legged, holding Zhen Rong in his arms, Zhen Dao, Zhen Tuo, Zhen Jiang sat around him, only to hear him say colorfully: "The big bad wolf came to the door of the little brother pig's house at night to take a look, and found that the little brother's home was actually a grass house, and immediately felt great joy in his heart, it opened its bloody mouth, took a breath of cool air, and then tried its best to exhale, only to see a strong wind rushing out of his mouth, sweeping towards the little brother pig's grass house, woo......"
Zhen Rong strangled Guo Jia's neck with both hands, Zhen Rong, who was pale, didn't know that he was overexerting himself, Guo Jia's neck was twitching, but he could only endure it, Zhen Tuo and Zhen Dao clenched their hands tightly, and they also looked nervous, only Zhen Jiang had a warm smile on his face, listening to the story from Guo Jia's mouth.
The Zhen sisters listened attentively, Guo Jia spoke vividly, and unconsciously, they only heard Xu Shu shouting at Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, the wine and food have been prepared." ”
As soon as Guo Jia heard this, he smiled at the Zhen sisters and was about to get up and go over, but was pulled by Zhen Tuo and Zhen Dao together, and asked, "What is the fate of the three little pig brothers?" Was it devoured by the big bad wolf? ”
Zhen Jiang came out to relieve the siege and persuaded his sisters to stop, and then took Zhen Rong from Guo Jia's arms and cast a urging look at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia, who got out, came to Xu Shu and Zhen Yu, sat down, grabbed a rabbit leg and gnawed it, then picked up the wine jug and poured a big sip, the result:
"cough cough cough ......" Guo Jia, who was accustomed to it, forgot that this was the wine that the Zhen family had just brewed, and the alcohol content was much higher than that of previous drinks, and he was immediately choked up.
And Xu Shu and Zhen Yu took small sips and drank lightly, seeing Guo Jia's embarrassed appearance, they immediately laughed.
Guo Jia wiped the drops of wine from his mouth, then shook his head with a wry smile, and the three of them had fun drinking and laughing.
The Zhen sisters did not eat much, only a moment to eat, and then the four sisters sat together, placed a hexagonal chessboard in the middle, each of the four occupied a corner, and played with four colors of chess pieces.
This is Guo Jia's copying of pachinko checkers, which has become the Zhen sisters' favorite game project.
Being in the green mountains and green waters, drinking wine and enjoying food, accompanied by beautiful women, this beautiful scenery, wine and beauty are all available, Guo Jia and two friends are drunk and hot, Xu Shu proposed: "Fengxiao, such a beautiful scenery, why don't you chant a poem?" ”
Zhen Yu clapped his hands and seconded, Guo Jia tilted his head and thought about it, then chanted loudly:
The state of the mountain light makes Chunhui, and it is not a light yin to return.
Even if it is sunny and rainless, it will be wet in the depths of the clouds.
