Shen Qishan took the cup and said quietly: "Gao Gong praises it. Fighting against the Tartars and serving the court is the duty of my military general, and it should be so! After the two drank each other's gifts, Gao Jian came to take the lamp again, and Shen Qishan said with a smile: "It is said that a good family feast is not informal, how can you be so polite." Gao Jian heard that he was tired of these red tapes, so he let everyone eat and drink at will. He also ordered the invited Youqi to play and sing a set of "Pan Tao Club" in the center of the table, but it was also melodious.

Xiao Kite fed Sister Rong with vegetables, Gao Cheng came over with a plate of white sugar osmanthus cake, Sister Rong had eaten badly, so she went out of the table to play in the courtyard with him.

Mrs. Xing sent a maid to call, and Xiao Yuan hurriedly sat down beside her and talked with her.

After three rounds of wine, Yan Dixia suddenly got up and asked Gao Kun: "I heard Gao Gong talk about the inheritance of this mansion, which has been passed down for a hundred years, and now it has come all the way from the guest room, although the flowers and trees are lush but not stout, the rockery pavilion is elegant but not ancient, and even these houses and pavilions look at the tail ridge of the mountaintop, carved beams and painted columns are only ten years old, and the younger generations really feel that they are not strong, because they dare to ask." ”

Gao Kun was not annoyed and smiled: "The young man is very discerning, ten years ago this place was burned to scorched earth, and he had to rebuild it, yes, and you see this scene today." ”

"I don't know why it caught fire?" Yan Dixia asked.

"The fire in the house is nothing more than dry weather, cats and mice flipping lights, and domestic servants causing trouble. Don't mention it now. Gao Kun obviously didn't want to talk more, so he turned his face and continued to talk with Shen Qishan.

"It's weird." Yan Dixia whispered to Xiao Yun: "It's also a skill to be able to burn without leaving an inch of grass!" ”

Suddenly, a grandmother hurriedly came to Mrs. Xing's side, I don't know what she muttered, Mrs. Xing's face changed slightly, she got up and walked out, Xiao Yuan also followed, Xiao Yun asked, "Sister Rong'er is in trouble?" ”

Xiao Yuan shook his head, let him continue to eat and drink, Xiao Yun will be fine.

Besides, the grandmother led them out of the flower hall, along the sheep's intestines through the willow-leaf cave door, and saw the backs of five or six little girls clustered together, although the sound was loud, but the chatter could not be heard clearly.

Mama raised her voice and scolded: "What are you arguing about, Madame is here." ”

Those little girls hurriedly made their debut, Sister Rong ran over, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, leaned over and hugged her, feeling as if she was scared, and hugged her neck tightly.

Mrs. Xing was carried forward by her grandmother, and in front of a cluster of Taihu Lake stones, Brother Cheng was held tightly in her arms by a woman and couldn't break free.

The woman's hair was messy like unkempt grass, her face was scorched and haggard, her dress was dirty and dirty, one foot was wearing shoes and the other foot was naked, but she was embarrassed, she just cried and laughed: "Brother Ji, my brother Ji, you are finally willing to come back to accompany your mother, don't you, I miss you very much, do you miss me?" There must be, you have been an obedient child since you were a child. ”

That Gao Cheng was already bluffing, trying to break free, but the woman had a lot of strength, like an iron chain holding him tightly, and when he was at a loss, he saw Mrs. Xing hurriedly shouting: "Mother save me!" ”

"Mother save you, mother will come to save you." The woman suddenly let go of Gao Cheng, and pushed him hard down the road behind her, crying loudly: "Run, run, mother, save you." ”

Although Gao Cheng was a little confused, he was also clever, and he really ran away towards that road.

The woman turned her face to look at Mrs. Xing and the girls, her eyes were fierce, and she gritted her teeth and scolded: "You animals who deserve to be thundered by the sky, evil will be rewarded, but the time has not yet come." ”

There were just three or five stout mothers-in-law coming, racking their arms, lifting their legs, hugging their waists, and pushing and shoving them away, but the scolding was still endless, and it was difficult to disperse for a long time.

"Who is this woman?" Mrs. Xing frowned and asked the grandmother in front of her.
