Chapter 1005: When Jasper Breaks Melon
Jasper is the age title of a woman in ancient times.
The girl is sixteen years old, and it is called the jasper year. That is, the broken melon years. It can also be called the beginning of the melon word and the year of the hyacon.
It is a fallacy to think that a woman is broken and broken.
The so-called broken melon is that the literati in ancient times split the old style of "melon" into two eight characters to chronicle the year, which means 28 years, that is, the woman is 16 years old.
The "Jasper Banquet" of Kong Ci's sixteenth birthday, although it is not an exaggeration to say that the entire central land is paying attention, but in fact, the overall scale is not too large. Although the other seven surnames were all visited, there were hardly any famous and high-status people of the older generation who came to congratulate them, and all of them were young and up-and-coming men and women.
Even the elders of her Kong family rarely attended.
Because her birthday is a bit over-the-top, this season pays attention to the orderliness of the young and the young, the parents are alive, and the children must not celebrate their birthdays in a big way, which is called no big or small!
Therefore, her wanton behavior, in Ding Bao's opinion, did not attract the reprimands of the elders in the clan, and even made the old scholars who adhered to the ancient rites in the world rise up to condemn her, which is already commendable. It can also be seen from this that this Confucian girl, known as the "genius crazy woman", is really as described in the mouths of Kong Lianshun and Kong Lianyi, who is uninhibited, willful, and will never take the usual path!
From this point of view, the brothers and sisters of the Kong family are more or less influenced by her.
What also surprised him a little was that as the leader of the world's etiquette and culture, Kong Ziru, the current head of the Confucian family, "Holy Father", would actually support his daughter in this matter, which is quite rare and enlightened.
Kong Ci's birthday is on the 11th day of the first month, but the noisy and lively atmosphere has gradually become stronger since the fifth day of the first lunar month.
At this time, it is inconvenient to come and go, especially in the frost and snow winter, and it is difficult to determine the specific day needed on the road, so in order to avoid delays in the coming period, many guests from afar would rather be early than late, and rushed to Zhongnan Mountain early. Those who can come here to congratulate are not ordinary people, Ding servants, guards, dart guards, and maidservants...... There are all kinds of cars, horses, boxes and sedans, which are very noisy and messy.
Naturally, these people can't all be arranged to enter the Confucius Mansion in the South of China. In fact, although the Confucius Mansion in Zhongnan is large, there are only a few young people who are really qualified to live there. So this time, Confucius treated everyone equally, regardless of identity and status, all of them were arranged on the side of Yansheng Grass Garden.
The hosts and guests who are eligible to participate in the banquet will stay in the "Sanglin Yayuan" rebuilt from the original agricultural experimental field "Sericulture Pavilion".
As for those who followed, they were arranged together with the carriage and horse car in the "fruit tree garden" that had been abandoned for a long time and had only improved slightly in recent years. There is a farmer's lodging shop in the garden, clean it up in advance, put on the animal carbon stove, and it is not afraid of frost and snow.
Whether it is the Sanglin Garden or the fruit tree garden, they are all on the periphery, and Kong Ci always keeps in mind his promise and does not let anyone enter the grass garden, especially the inner garden where all kinds of birds and beasts are gathered.
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Ding Bao got up early, went to Xionghu Mountain to chase the tiger for a "morning run" as usual, and then bathed and changed clothes, and Shi Shiran passed through the inner door of the grass garden and came to the front hall of the grass garden.
The front hall of the grass garden is the main venue of today's jasper feast. In fact, it is the "flower room" of the former agricultural experimental field, and it is also the best preserved of the original six agricultural departments.
In the distance, a towering building with colorful flowers and vines climbing over the stone wall comes into view. Due to the need to take care of daylighting, the architectural features of this house are not very common, and the overall style is somewhat similar to the temple style of Western Xinjiang, covering a large area, with a spacious central hall and a number of stone pillars. The roof is combined with the Donghai Yushan dwellings, leaving some hidden skylights, which can ensure abundant lighting on sunny days.
It was a very sunny day, and the cold wind had stopped, and it was warm.
In front of the front hall door, the lights are lit up and the red carpet is paved. The people who came to the banquet today were all young and handsome, and at this time, they were separated from the front of the door, and it was Kong Lianshun and Kong Lianyi who were responsible for welcoming the new people.
Both of them are radiant and beaming. Kong Lianshun wore a crown of scribes with eight treasures on his head, and wore a purple brocade robe, which made a black face that was also very handsome. Kong Lianyi is also a rare untie of the trivial braids of the past, wearing a hairpin in a vertical bun, wearing a fluffy and fiery red mink fur coat, the more white the skin is as white as jade, ruddy as the sun.
Ding Bao came late, and at this time, there was no one outside the front hall door except for the guards of the Kong family who were three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. Kong Lianshun and Kong Lianyi, the brothers and sisters, no longer cared about their manners, stomping the snow foam on their feet, while copying their sleeves and steaming, both pairs of eyes with expectant eyes, constantly looking this way, as if they were waiting for Ding Bao outside.
Sure enough, as soon as he saw Ding Bao turning out of the inner door, Kong Lianshun immediately showed his expression and raised his arms to greet him.
Kong Lianyi jumped up with a casual sound, giggled, and was about to spread his legs to this side, but was pulled by Kong Lianshun. Only then did he wake up to his duties today, and quickly spit out his bright red tongue, but his face was already smiling.
Feeling the joy of the two of them from the heart, Ding Bao also felt warm in his heart and walked over.
"Brother Ning, Master." Kong Lianshun bowed down to greet him one by one. After the joke of throwing the pot that day, Ding Bao also had a lot of trouble before he asked him to remove the word "brother-in-law" from the suffix.
"Big brother."
Kong Lianyi was not so particular, he grabbed Ding Bao's arm with a smile, pulled it aside mysteriously, pulled off the fluffy deerskin gloves, and took out a stack of crumpled steaming paper from the leather fur bag with a spring onion-like hand, opened it very seriously, blinked with lacquer and ink, and said in a childish voice: "Na, this is the congratulatory gift information collected by the little sister." Up to this time, there were a total of 27 congratulatory gifts of rare and exotic beasts. Little sister will give you a brief introduction, a macaw, produced in Western Xinjiang, half a year old, like to learn the tongue, good at human language, vivid, can copy 300 words of human language......"
"Bigeye Neon Fish ......"
"Golden Fire Monkey ......"
Kong Lianyi recited, Ding Bao listened attentively, and kept comparing it with the list of fourteen species that was a little vague in his mind, and he had listened to more than a dozen species, but none of them were familiar with them, so he couldn't help but be a little impatient, and asked: "Ripples, in the meantime, there are no insects or anything like that?" ”
"Worm, it doesn't seem to be. Wait a minute, I'll take a look at it. ”
Kong Ripple responded with a crisp sound, took a small bite of cherry, took two hot breaths at his fingertips that had been frozen into small carrots, lowered his head, and hurriedly flipped in the paper recorded below.
At this moment, Ding Bao's nose moved, his eyes suddenly froze, and he stretched out his right hand to grab the ripples, but it was too late.
A fragrant wind swept by, Kong Lianyi screamed "oops", and was hit hard, the childish little body couldn't stand the force, and fell heavily on the frozen ground, the pain made the eyes instantly red, and the eyes of the ink were wet and stained with thick frost and fog. The little nose twitched and twitched, very aggrieved.
And eating this impact, I was caught off guard, and the paper in my hand clattered, fluttered, and scattered all over the ground.
Ding Bao's face was cold, and he didn't expect that someone would dare to hit Kong Ripple at the door of the Yansheng Grass Garden and the Confucian Family Grass Hall, and looking at this body movement, the kung fu foundation is not weak. However, this is not the time to care, so he hurriedly leaned over, picked up Kong Ripples with great speed, and asked softly if it was okay, so he endured his anger and looked up at the woman who caused the accident.
The eyebrows are like Yuandai, the eyes are like the moon, the lips are red and the teeth are white, and they are extremely bright. A royal blue hooded fox fur inlaid with pearls and bright silver, white velvet hugging the neck, wrapping the whole person slim, like the essence of snow.
What a delicate person.
The only disadvantage is that the lip flap is slightly thin, the lip color is slightly light, and it is tense from time to time, making the whole person arrogant and thin. Coupled with that condescending contemptuous look, it gives people an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
"Bai Yishang, what are you doing!" Kong Lianshun took a step angrily, clenched his fists, his black face turned blue, and roared.
"Bold! How can you call the princess of Ni Dress? Don't hurry up and kneel down and beg for mercy! ”
"Bum, Brother Sun Pu, before you fart, please widen your eyes first and see who this is. This is the son of the Xiyan prefect's family, Young Master Kong Lianshun. Go and go, pee in the snow on the one hand, there is a county lord here, your bird's beak is quacking! ”
"What Tang Gongzi said is very true, Sun Pu, the county lord and this Young Master Kong, don't talk crooked if you don't understand!"
Only then did Ding Bao see that beside the proud peacock-like woman, the stars were surrounding four or five young men, all of whom were about twenty years old, all of them pretentious and chic, with a sequitable face. Except for one person with a sword at his waist, the other four people in the cold winter and the moon each shook a folding fan, and they were elegant. But this mouth was all exposed in an instant.
"Young Master Kong, since he is a welcomer, he must have some rules and manners, and when he sees the guests, he ignores them, and he also blocks the entrance hall and deliberately does not let the county lord enter, and almost trips the county lord to the ground, I am afraid that it will not conform to the hospitality of the Confucian family of the Holy Gate. Do you say, little sister Ripples? ”
The tsundere woman raised her chin, spoke clearly, looked at Kong Lianyi with her nostrils, and almost wrote the words "I deliberately found fault" on her face.
