Chapter 187: Mid-Autumn Festival
No one answered him, Qin Daochuan frowned, and glanced at Qin Bei, Qin Bei was just about to go to look for it, when he saw Zhonglan walking out of the gate with Qin Hai, Qin Hai saw the carriage and said something to Zhonglan, Zhonglan looked up, quickened his pace, walked to the carriage, and said hello to Qin Daochuan, Qin Daochuan subconsciously glanced at Zhongzhan and saw that he was looking away intentionally. Zhonglan also found his horse on his own, and turned over lightly, waiting quietly without saying a word.
Qin Daochuan pressed the discomfort in his heart and said, "Go home." ”
Zhonglan asked at this time, "Is my mother in the car?" ”
Qin Daochuan said: "It's your eldest sister." ”
Zhonglan approached the car window and said, "Eldest sister." ”
Xianya also replied inside, "Third brother." ”
Back in the house, the old lady didn't seem to be in high spirits, so she only left Zhong Zhan and Xian Ya to have dinner in Xuanwei Hall.
Qin Daochuan insisted that Ruoshu arrange everyone to eat together in the front yard. During the meal, Qin Daochuan kept looking at Zhongzhan and Zhonglan, because he was a little deliberate, even Ruoshu noticed it, and he also looked at it, and the two people involved were obviously a little unnatural, but fortunately, Zhongli's coughing rescued them in time.
Ruoshu said: "Why do you always choke? Didn't the doctor say that it was all right? ”
Qin Daochuan said: "I'll see the doctor tomorrow." ”
Ruoshu put down his chopsticks and no longer had an appetite.
Qin Daochuan saw that the atmosphere was a little dull, and said: "A few days ago, Zhongli accidentally fell into the lotus pond, your mother was worried, fortunately, there is no big problem, don't mention it again, don't surprise him again." ”
When the three of Zhongzhan heard this, they subconsciously looked at Zhongli, and they were so frightened that they forgot to cough, Zhonglan smiled and said, "Is it better?" ”
As soon as Zhongli wanted to speak, he began to cough again.
Qin Daochuan could only hug him on his lap and pat him on the back, until Xia Berry brought the freshly boiled lung soup and drank half a bowl before he stopped coughing. Xia Berry whispered behind Ruoshu and said, "Madam, why don't I boil some autumn pear paste and let the Seventh Prince carry it with me." Ruoshu nodded.
After this incident, Qin Daochuan's goal was not achieved, so he had to end it hastily.
On the second day, the Mid-Autumn Festival, because the concubine was happy with her son a few days ago, the emperor was happy, and the streets of the capital were full of red lanterns, which was very festive.
The queen canceled the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration on the grounds of frugality, and Ruoshu, who did not have to enter the palace, breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhong Zhan, Zhong Qi, and Zhong Yuan naturally couldn't hold it back, and ran out after dinner, Zhong Li saw it, looked at it with his eyes, Zhong Lan saw it, and said, "The third brother will take you out for a walk." After speaking, he picked up Zhongli and said to his parents: "Father, mother, I will take Zhongli to the neighborhood for a walk." "There is no need for Qin Daochuan to speak, in addition to Qin Hai and the four of them, Qin Bei also followed.
Ruoshu sighed, and Qin Daochuan said, "You don't have to worry too much, maybe it's just easy to choke." ”
Ruoshu said: "If it really leaves the root of the disease, how can it be good? ”
Qin Daochuan said: "Last time, Imperial Doctor Xu said that he could try to let him learn some methods of breathing, maybe it would improve. ”
Seeing Ruoshu looking at him with a confused face, he explained: "I'm going to teach him to play the flute and practice his breath to see if it can help him." ”
Ruoshu remembered what He Shiqing had said about playing the piano and flute with Qin Daochuan by the lotus pond for no reason, and said angrily: "You are proficient in all the martial arts of the eighteenth class. ”
It's a pity that Qin Daochuan didn't know why at all, and said to her with a smile: "Mrs. Xie praises." After speaking, he motioned to Qin Xi to get the flute.
Not long after, a melodious flute sounded in the front yard of the Guogong Mansion, and Ah Yun held his face with both hands, propped himself on the round table, looked at his father, and listened attentively until the end of the song.
Qin Daochuan sat back to Ruoshu and said: "This is my mother's favorite "Dressing Table Autumn Thought", and then she stopped playing, so I played it to her, since she died, she has never touched the flute, today is considered to be back in the rivers and lakes, and in the future, I will teach Zhongli, it seems that I will play it often." ”
Ruoshu looked at him subconsciously and laughed at himself for a long time, but Qin Daochuan understood it wrongly and said, "Madam doesn't even like to listen to the flute?" ”
Ruo Shu shook his head, afraid of ambiguity, and then said: "My grandmother likes to play "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" the most, but she doesn't let me learn it. ”
Qin Daochuan picked up the flute and played "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms", but Ruoshu frowned from time to time until the end of the song and said, "How is it different from my grandmother's score?" ”
Qin Daochuan asked curiously, "Do you remember the tune?" ”
Ruoshu chuckled and said, "Listening to it every once in a while, my ears are about to become calloused." ”
Qin Daochuan urged her to hum a few sentences to listen, Ruo Shu just untied a knot in his heart, he was in a good mood, closed his eyes and thought about it, and hummed softly, Qin Daochuan remembered it silently, and frowned from time to time.
It wasn't until she finished humming that she said, "I'll blow it to you, and if there's anything wrong, you bring it up." ”
When Zhonglan came back with Zhongli in his arms, he saw his parents sitting side by side in the courtyard, his father played a tune, stopped, his mother hummed again, and his father blew another one, Ah Yun looked at them silently, the bright moon was in the sky, and the wind sent dark incense, a few oil lamps were bright and dark, and the atmosphere was very warm and beautiful. wanted Zhongli not to make a sound, hugged him and quietly sat next to Ah Yun, at this time Qin Daochuan said: "It's very strange, but it's quite new, I'll blow it again, listen, right?" ”
The melody is still melodious, but it is tactful and low, as if with a trace of indelible sadness.
After the song, Qin Daochuan said: "It seems that Mrs. Lu has a sad thing hidden in her heart, which is far from being as bright and moving as I saw that day. ”
Ruoshu said with a little sadness: "There are always a few days in the year, my grandmother will blow all night, at first I felt at ease when I heard it, and then I felt upset, because after that, she would always be low for a while, and she would punish me for sticking stickers at every turn." After speaking, there was a sudden silence.
Seeing her stay there, Qin Daochuan asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Ruoshu looked at him and said, "She also blew all night that night, and the next day," before the words were finished, her eyes were already full of tears, and it seemed that she would burst out of her eyes in the next second.
Qin Daochuan was speechless, so he had to take her into his arms.
Ruoshu continued: "I only realized it today, it is really unfilial. ”
Qin Daochuan stroked her back and said, "In a few days, I will go to the military department to take leave and accompany you back to Qingzhou to worship your grandmother." ”
Ruoshu couldn't hold back his tears, buried his head in Qin Daochuan's arms, and soaked his front placket with tears.
The three children sitting on the side saw their mother so weak for the first time, and they didn't dare to come out, Qin Daochuan waited until her emotions calmed down before saying, "It's late at night, let's all go and rest!" "I want Qin Xi to lead people to find Zhongzhan and them.
On the second day, Zhao Chenliang missed the appointment. said that there was a sudden visitor to the house, and he couldn't get out.
Ruoshu felt a little bad when he heard Qin Daochuan talk about this, but everything was just an intention, and it didn't matter if it was successful, he just said, "You are too impatient, isn't it good to understand the other party's situation first and then take your daughter to see it?" ”
Qin Daochuan disagreed, "When the time comes, it takes energy, and you can't look down on elegance, isn't it a waste of effort, if it is passed on, it will not be good." ”
