Chapter Twenty-Nine: Words Don't Speculate for More Than Half a Sentence
The Li family in Zhizhou is much more magnificent than Zhang Erzhen's family. The carriage stopped at the main entrance, and a mother-in-law and two maids came out and invited the Jin mother and daughter in. After walking for a while, he entered the main hall and saw Mrs. Li of Zhizhou and a few faces, and the Jin family knew that the one who was wearing a royal red placket with Mrs. Li was Mrs. Zhongpingbo.
Mrs. Zhizhou was wearing a five-color brocade embroidered silk skirt with a smoky red bichia, her face was fair, and a pair of phoenix eyes flashed with fine light. The Jin family had already prepared, and greeted the salute affectionately, looking at the little girl standing on Mrs. Liang's side, as if she was puzzled: "Is this Miss Liang, she is white-skinned and beautiful, elegant and exquisite, she is really a good girl." ”
Mrs. Liang smiled: "This is the little girl's love for the night." Aiwan, I have seen Mrs. Zhang. As Liang Aiwan saluted, Mrs. Liang continued: "Mrs. Zhang is so young and beautiful, she is only twenty-eight, and there are outstanding people here in Wuchang, and there is such a beauty as Mrs. Zhang." This is your girl, isn't it? well-behaved and clever, and it is pleasing to look at. ”
Zhang Erzhen lowered her head when she entered the main hall, raised her head and smiled lightly when she heard the words, blessed her body and saluted Mrs. Liang, Jin said: "Little girl Erzhen, let Mrs. Liang smile." ”
Mrs. Li smiled and led the two to their seats, and instructed the maid to serve the newly arrived Yanzhou Biliu tea, and the three ladies began to "talk about tea". Mrs. Liang asked about the climate and customs of Wuchang, and Jin asked about the climate and weather of the capital, which was mixed with the laughter of Mrs. Li. A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Erzhen gently kicked her somewhat sore legs, looked around secretly, and in a blink of an eye, she met Liang Aiwan's bright autumn eyes. Liang Aiwan is really beautiful, she looks a little older than her, the goose yellow gauze skirt looks delicate and fair, the bun is simple and generous, and only a plain hairpin is inserted.
Liang Aiwan noticed that Zhang Erzhen was also looking at her, and smiled a little shyly, revealing the shallow pear vortex on her cheeks.
Zhang Erzhen pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, this Liang Aiwan would not be reasonable if she was not a beauty who captivated the country and the city when she grew up. What kind of charm should it be, I was fantasizing there, and there was a little girl at the door, still small, with a delicate face, wearing a light pink shirt, somewhat similar to Mrs. Li.
I only heard Mrs. Li say: "Chang Ling is here, come and see Mrs. Zhongping and Mrs. Zhang." I talked to the two ladies, and you took the two girls down to rest, and they must have been tired after standing for so long. ”
The person who came was Li Changling, the youngest daughter of Zhizhou Mansion, ranked third, and said hello to Mrs. Zhongpingbo and Mrs. Zhang, and when she answered yes, she affectionately held Liang Aiwan to go out. Jin motioned for Zhang Erzhen to follow, although Zhang Erzhen was reluctant, standing was tired, but it was also interesting to hear some 'gossip', but he had to give blessings to the three of them and walked out lightly.
Li Changling walked ahead with Liang Aiwan on his own, walked through the stone steps corridor to a small garden, found two stone chairs with thick pads and soft cushions to sit on, and chatted with Liang Aiwan with a happy face. Liang Aiwan turned her head to look at Zhang Erzhen several times, Zhang Erzhen smiled at her indifferently, signaled that she was out of the way, and found a place to sit farther away and enjoy the beautiful summer scenery.
"Sister Wan, what do you care about her. She's just the daughter of a magistrate, and she's also very withdrawn and weird on weekdays, and I heard that she never goes out, and I haven't seen her. I guess she's a sick pocket, whoever gets caught in it is unlucky......" Li Changling was saying, suddenly realizing that he had said the wrong thing, and said embarrassedly: "Sister Wan, don't mind, I said that." He pointed in Zhang Erzhen's direction.
Liang Aiwan shook her head and said, "It's not in the way, I was also sick." It's just Chang Ling, if it's the first time you see her, why don't you like her? I look at Miss Zhang as quiet and elegant, not like someone who will offend you. ”
Li Changling pouted unhappily: "I don't care, I just don't like her." But I like you, sister late, and my mother also says hello. ”
Zhang Erzhen heard it really clearly, because Li Changling's voice was not small, and she was really a little puzzled, when did she offend this little girl in the Zhizhou Mansion for the first time?
Liang Aiwan didn't ask in detail, seeing that Li Changling didn't want to say anything, he gave up, and whispered to Li Changling about going out tomorrow, Li Changling's interest suddenly rose, and said: "Brother and Brother Yu are also going, I just went to the kitchen to prepare the pastries for tomorrow's outing, and then I will go to the housekeeper to prepare the carriage and horses, we will go tomorrow, it is rare to go out, it is all the blessing of the late sister." ”
"The green trees are thick and the buildings are reflected, which is just the right time to go upstairs. Liang Aiwan smiled happily, with a yearning look: "My body is weak, and it is rare for my mother to allow me to go, and I am also very happy." I heard that where Yao Village is close to Guoyun Mountain, the twilight is heavy and the water is clear, and I can't wait to see it immediately. ”
Li Changling took Liang Aiwan's hand and continued to chatter, the two were already familiar with each other, and they were even more lively for a while, making Zhang Erzhen lonely and lonely. Mingyue was a little angry, and whispered: "Girl, let's go elsewhere to enjoy the scenery, why do you have to be here, it's very uncomfortable." ”
Zhang Erzhen was looking at the carp in the pond in a daze, with a black and bright back, thick and long whiskers, it was a pity not to eat such a good fish, thinking about going back to the house to fish, and gradually reacted to Mingyue's words, and said indifferently: "The wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants, and the words are not speculative for more than half a sentence." ”
"The girl is too young to drink well, and the lady will be angry. Mingyue reminded straightforwardly.
"Mingyue, you've been studying with me for a few days, if you don't have to worry about it, I won't take you with me next time I go out. Zhang Erzhen turned her gaze to Mingyue and sighed: "I don't want to play the piano to the cow." ”
Mingyue's little face was blushing, and she nodded like garlic and said, "Girl, I was wrong, I must listen carefully when I go home, and I beg the girl not to leave me." ”
That's right, Zhang Erzhen nodded with satisfaction, Mingyue is still young, and it's always good to learn more. In her previous life, she should also be in the second grade, which is the time to study.
Zhang Erzhen continued to look down and admire the lotus canopy full of ponds, the emerald green bags on the numb eyes, standing next to the delicate lotus flowers like a heroic guard, looking at this pool like a battlefield, the breeze hit like a war drum, the pond swayed, Zhang Erzhen seemed to hear the sound of fighting, but there was nothing.
Mrs. Li's grandmother came over, and Mrs. Dao had a very happy conversation with the two ladies, and now she was on the rise, so she ordered the kitchen to prepare lunch, and invited the three girls to Xingge for lunch.
Li Changling stood up and said to Liang Aiwan: "Then let's go quickly, just explain something to my mother." ”
Liang Aiwan stood up, looked in the direction of Zhang Erzhen, and motioned for Zhang Erzhen to follow. Zhang Erzhen smiled friendly and followed the two towards Xingge, where lunch had been prepared.
