Chapter 55: Brother and Sister Talk
Seeing Xie Ying leave, Chen Yuming's maid also returned to her side, and the two were listening to the new play "A Man" this spring.
Chen Yuming raised her eyes to signal the maid to fade, but the other lady frowned slightly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Xie Erniang has never heard of a puppet show, come and see what is new." Chen Yuming said and picked up a dried fruit and put it in his mouth.
"Really?" The lady was a little skeptical.
Chen Yuming chuckled, "Sister-in-law, what's going on, I asked my sister-in-law to come to the play today." ”
It turned out that this lady was the wife of Chen Yurong, the eldest son of the Duke of Chen.
Wei Niangzi raised her eyes to look at the small stage, and said helplessly: "In the past few days, Rong Lang has been busy with the things of those scholars in the Guozijian Division. ”
"I always have to pass the name of the Xie family in my mouth."
Chen Yuming only stared intently at the characters in the play, "My brother is a waiter, and it is inevitable that the affairs are complicated, so my sister-in-law needs to be more hairy." ”
"I don't understand the affairs of their officials," Wei Niangzi smiled, then picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, "Just listen to what Rong Lang means, Guozijian should also let our own people go." ”
The dried fruit in Chen Yuming's hand paused at her mouth for a while, her eyes lowered as if she was thinking about something, and after a while, she came back to her senses and smiled: "Sister-in-law, let's watch the play!" ”
The dried fruit also entered the mouth......
Say more "an autumn rain and a cold". At the end of July, Chang'an went through a few baptisms, and I thought it would be cooler, but these days seem to be exposed every day, which makes people unprepared.
Xie Ying sat in the hall, the chrysanthemums rewarded by His Majesty were placed under the eaves, and Xie Ying, who was holding a book, occasionally raised his eyes to see it. These flowers were still budding when they were delivered, and now they are blooming with rain.
She didn't hear Song Niangzi's footsteps until Hongying poked Xie Ying's arm.
Raising her eyes in surprise, the corners of Xie Ying's mouth immediately raised a smile, "Sister-in-law is here!" ”
But Song Jinqin's eyebrows frowned slightly, it seemed that there was something unpleasant. Xie Ying immediately put down the book and looked at her carefully.
"Sister-in-law, the housekeeper is so good, it must not be a worry for the housekeeper; If you get the post, it's not so gloomy; That...... It's my brother's business! ”
Xie Ying gently pushed her, and Song Niangzi's uneasy mood just now was half gone, "It's his business." ”
"Tell me about it, and I'll see if I can help my sister-in-law."
Song Niang glanced at the sky outside with a smile, and Xie Ying also saw that it was the autumn light that was about to enter the twilight.
"Qiu Lang locked himself in the Boundless Pavilion when he came back from Guozijian today, and his temperament was that he didn't send a few cups of tea in." Song Jinqin sighed as she spoke.
Xie Min was teaching in Guozijian, and he stopped at three o'clock when he started the road, about before and after the city drum. It's three minutes now, and it's two hours long.
Xie Ying hurriedly took Song Niangzi's hand, "Leave this to me, and my sister will let the kitchen prepare a charcoal grill and mutton!" ”
Song Jinqin looked at her eyes flashing with starlight, and she looked like she was bound to win, so she nodded.
The sun had already disappeared into the mountains, and Xie Ying led a few mothers-in-law to push open the door of the Boundless Pavilion without fear. 、
Xie Min immediately spoke: "Did you say don't bother?" There was a hint of annoyance in his words.
"It's me!" Xie Ying walked forward and beckoned a few servants to put the stove down.
"Ying'er, this is Wuya Pavilion, what are you doing?" Xie Min was only helpless this time, "Is this a place where you can eat?" ”
Xie Ying immediately snorted at him twice, "Isn't that just how I can please you?" ”
The servant woman quickly set up the barbecue rack, and Xie Ying hurriedly sent them away and took care of the barbecue by herself.
Listening to the sound of mutton making a "zizi", she quickly swallowed, and did not forget to sneak a glance at Xie Min. With the smell of meat, coupled with Xie Ying, a sister who is used to "sprinkling", he is also a little shaken.
He's such a sister, always indulging her like this. Finally Xie Min closed the book, "That's it!" ”
Xie Ying's eyebrows and eyes were suddenly dyed with pleasure, and she brought out a hot soup in the food box, "Brother hasn't eaten for so long, let's drink the soup first!" ”
"Qin Niang went to find you." Xie Min took a sip, his expression was soothing, and he said these words lingeringly.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, "Sister-in-law is so anxious, I'm distressed!" I just don't know if some people understand it and feel distressed! After Xie Ying finished speaking in a strange way, he gave him a blank look.
Xie Min didn't answer her, just drank the bowl of soup calmly, and his heart was very comfortable.
"Zizi" Xie Ying picked up the barbecue again, "Why did my brother lock himself up here today?" ”
"Ying'er, Daddy asked me to read, but it's not a pedantic book." Xie Min hooked his hand, and Xie Ying handed a bunch of mutton to him.
Xie Ying also picked one up and put it in his mouth and chewed it, "Even if I learn the art of war from Daddy, I can't only understand martial arts, I don't know the art of war, and I can't 'talk about war on paper'." ”
After speaking, she looked at Xie Min's slightly frowning brows, and her voice became louder in a hurry: "Is it that those old stubborn people in the Guozijian are bullying you!" ”
"You!" Xie Min laughed out loud for a while, and then made up his mind, "It's not bullying, after listening to today's words, I feel that there are too many injustices in this world." ”
Xie Ying frowned again, the brother in her image was not such "sentimental".
"There are already a lot of injustices, hasn't my brother been doing his best to change them?"
"I don't want to be an official, just Your Majesty, Daddy doesn't want me to be an official." Xie Min's eyes glanced at the book on the case, which was a "Commentary on Confucianism".
Retracting his gaze, he said: "Later, I became a doctor of Taixue, but I was still limited by my own identity. ”
Xie Ying stared at his slightly frowning brows, and said some dull words, without thinking too much, he must have been taught a lesson by those old doctors in Guozijian.
"Brother, those old doctors and you naturally think differently. Teachable knowledge can still bring a better life to the Tiansheng Dynasty! ”
Xie Min raised his eyes to look at her, Xie Ying also stared at him seriously, and in the blink of an eye, his eyes asked: Didn't I say it?
"Not those older doctors," Xie Min shook his head.
"In this year's official assessment, a doctor of scripture who was promoted from the official school of Suizhou was surnamed Du, and he was only twenty-three years old, and his results were particularly outstanding.
Xie Ying was a little puzzled, "Don't talk about being old, even if you are a doctor of the same age, you can't think of going out for everything!" ”
"But what he said today did make my heart feel heavy, because his words would not have been spoken by the older doctors."
Saying that, Xie Min sighed, "That's why I came here to meditate." ”
"What did that Dr. Du say to his brother? I want to hear it. Xie Ying handed out another barbecue and waited for Xie Min's next words......
