Chapter 17: Dreams
Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye.
The day agreed upon by Hu Jingtong and Lin Lingfeng has arrived.
Qian Wenkai accompanied Hu Jingtong to Yilin Porcelain Workshop.
The coachman of the Qian family parked the carriage directly next to the tethered horse stake on the side of the Yilin porcelain workshop.
Minya and the coachman stood guard in the carriage.
Qian Wenkai accompanied Hu Jingtong straight to the VIP room upstairs in Yilin Porcelain Workshop.
Inside a private room.
Hu Jingtong suddenly said with a serious expression: "Young Master Qian, my grandfather's birthday is coming. I'm going to ask Master Lin to make a porcelain lumbar pillow for my grandfather. Don't help me with this money, otherwise, I won't pay attention to you in the future! ”
Qian Wenkai was stunned for a moment and said, "Why do you want to be like this...... Stubborn. ”
Hu Jingtong said: "I'm serious! You must not help me pay the money, or I will ignore you!" ”
Qian Wenkai smiled slightly and said, "...... All right. It's just, where did you get so many silver taels? ”
Hu Jingtong said: "Grandpa gave me some every month, and I saved it little by little. ”
At this time, Lin Lingfeng came to the private room to meet them.
"Mr. Qian, Miss Xu, long time no see." Lin Lingfeng said with a smile.
"Long time no see......"
Everyone exchanged a few words and got to the point.
Hu Jingtong took out a painting and said, "Master Lin, this is the pattern I painted, the painting is extremely rough, you can make do with it." I want to make a lumbar pillow like this for my grandfather. He's been suffering from back pain lately. You see, this lumbar pillow is hollow, with two layers inside and outside, and it has a seal. In this way, you can add some charcoal in it in the winter to keep the pillow warm and cushioned behind the waist. ”
Lin Lingfeng said: "I didn't expect Miss Xu to have such a delicate and dexterous mind. I can make this, but it's very cumbersome to make, so the cost is not low. I'm afraid it will cost fifteen taels of silver to make such a porcelain waist pillow. ”
Hu Jingtong said: "Master Lin, can this price be cheaper?" Also, I would like to add a few words to the lumbar pillow. ”
Lin Lingfeng said: "May I ask what words do you want to add?" ”
Hu Jingtong thought for a while and said, "The old boy is full of vitality. ”
Lin Lingfeng's eyes couldn't help but widen a little, he looked at Hu Jingtong with some hesitation and said, "These words of Miss Xu...... Is...... It was an eye-opener for me. ”
Hu Jingtong smiled and said, "I think the words I came up with are great...... And then it's very powerful. ”
Lin Lingfeng's eyes lit up, and he was a little excited.
He tried to adjust his emotions before he said, "Miss Xu, may I ask how you got these words?" These words are just too ...... It's special. ”
Qian Wenkai, who was on the side, looked at the back and forth conversation between the two people in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.
He felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.
Hu Jingtong said: "I had a dream a few days ago. In my dream, I don't live in a place like Changnan Town. Rather, they live in a place called 'Deep City'. The people of that place were able to sit in a big iron box and fly into the sky. The houses they live in are very tall and tall, and the tallest houses can rise into the sky. The cart they sat in did not need to be dragged by horses, but could run as long as they ate gas. Anyway, everything is so different there. Later, I dreamed of a man, and I said to him, 'Comrade! You're not fighting alone, you still have me. Then I woke up. ”
Lin Lingfeng took a slight breath and said, "What a coincidence! I actually had the same dream as Miss Xu! The place in the dream is all the same! If Miss Xu is empty, you are welcome to come to the porcelain workshop often. ”
Hu Jingtong said: "Well, definitely! Can Master Lin be cheaper? I only have eight taels of silver at the moment. ”
Lin Lingfeng said with a smile: "Well, for the sake of seeing that we had the same dream, I will charge you eight taels of silver!" …… Uh, Miss Xu, do you mind if I ask a question? ”
Hu Jingtong said: "Great! Thank you, Master Lin! If you have any questions, it doesn't hurt to say them alone. ”
Lin Lingfeng said: "In that dream place, that is, the 'Deep City'. I am a twenty-two-year-old woman who has just graduated from the academy where she studied pottery. I wonder if Miss Xu is a man or a woman in the 'deep city'? What does it do? How big is it? ”
“……”
Hu Jingtong stared at Lin Lingfeng for a long time, and she couldn't accept what she heard in her ears for a while.
Hu Jingtong said: I'll go, I can still play like this when I cross! Isn't he a man's body and a woman's soul?! No wonder he didn't come home to see his wife.
Hu Jingtong said: "Master Lin, I am still a woman in the place of my dreams, and I am several years older than you. I do a lot of things, and it's very miscellaneous and hard. ”
Lin Lingfeng smiled and said, "It's a pleasure to meet Miss Xu, if you are free, you often come to the porcelain workshop to sit." I'll only charge you six taels of silver for this lumbar pillow! ”
Hu Jingtong said: "Six taels? Didn't you lose money? ”
Lin Lingfeng said with a smile: "We can be regarded as knowing each other in another country, right?" ”
Hu Jingtong stood up and saluted and said, "Then I'm welcome!" Thank you! My home is in Qianjiazhuang outside the town, Master Lin must come and see it. ”
Lin Lingfeng stood up and saluted, "I'll definitely go and have a look." ”
Qian Wenkai, who was sitting on the side, looked at Hu Jingtong and then at Lin Lingfeng.
He saw that Hu Jingtong and Lin Lingfeng were chatting very speculatively, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
He said to himself: What's going on? Their dreams are too strange.
……
It's the end of the year in a blink of an eye.
Qian Jiazhuang, Qian Zhai Private School.
Mr. Qingfang finished the day's lessons.
He looked at his three students and said, "Everyone, the school will have annual vacation from tomorrow. I have something important to announce. ”
Qian Wenkai, Hu Jingtong, and Qian Rongrong all stopped packing up their books and sat upright in their seats.
Mr. Qingfang said: "Wen Kai, Master Qian must have told you about this matter, right?" From the beginning of spring next year, I will go back to Changnan Town to teach. ”
Qian Wenkai said: "Sir, my father did mention this matter to us. He said that starting next year, the three of us will attend school in the town's school. ”
Mr. Qingfang said, "Well, I am still your husband. As a teacher, my role is to preach and solve doubts. If I come and go, I can only teach the three of you, and I am really ashamed of the name 'Mr. Qingfang' that everyone has given me. Next year, there will be a township exam, and the children in the town have been hoping that I can go back to teach them soon. ”
Qian Wenkai said: "We are also looking forward to continuing to study with my husband in the coming year. ”
……
Dacheng is the capital of the country, Anping.
Taichen Palace, Taiji Palace.
The little emperor Li Chengjian sat on the top of the main hall, and behind him stood a nine-pattern dragon screen.
Behind the screen sat his biological mother, the Empress Dowager Wu Jinyu.
Xiaode's father-in-law, who was guarding Li Chengjian's side, said: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat from." ”
None of the ministers had a script, and today's early dynasty was dispersed like this.
Yang Xin Yuan.
Wu Jinyu leaned on the Luohan couch and closed her eyes to recuperate.
Father-in-law Xiaode said softly: "Empress Dowager Qi, General Huo Xiang has something important to see. ”
Wu Jinyu immediately opened his eyes and said, "Xuan." ”
