Chapter 217: Old Ginseng
Listening to Zheng Changchang, the Lu family almost ignored her, except for secretly instigating Zheng Shuangshuang to deal with her, there was nothing beside her.
Zheng Changchang went to Zheng Guogong's outer study to serve the pen and ink for three days, and Lu also arched Zheng Shuangshuang.
Zheng Changchang is actually quite happy to get along with Zheng Shuangshuang, although Zheng Shuangshuang always has a nose and is not a nose and an eye to her, but Zheng Lingyi once told her that Zheng Shuangshuang is a blood sister after all, and she should try to be good friends with her.
But this work of serving is not something that everyone can do, Zheng Changchang has a good temperament, quiet and patient, Zheng Guogong's temperament also makes her feel thorough, the ink should be thick and light, the tea likes heat and warmth, and so on.
In addition, Zheng Guogong has recently started to be a vegetarian, and after Zheng Changchang went to Zhuang Niang's vegetarian restaurant to eat, he tried a few times at home, which was quite praised by him.
Zheng Shuangshuang is actually happy to perform, but she is more impetuous, and rarely serves in front of Zheng Guogong, and after making a few jokes, she refuses to go.
Zheng Changchang was a little disappointed, and asked Zheng Guogong to see it, and said secretly: "This daughter is still most like her biological mother, docile and kind." In this way, I have more pity for Zheng Changchang.
Zheng Guogong has always had a knot in his heart about Zheng Shuangshuang, although Aunt Jiang's matter was that she missed at a young age, and there was also the reason why the Lu family added fuel to the trouble.
But he always felt that Zheng Shuangshuang's life was fierce, and he always avoided her. Zheng Lingyi mentioned it many times and wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, but Zheng Guogong was always vague and unwilling to mention it again.
Zheng Lingyi was very disappointed in him, but he still told Zheng Changchang to take advantage of Zheng Guogong, and the father-daughter relationship was so far, which was really sad.
After learning from the county lord that Zheng Guogong wanted his son to return to the Zheng family, he didn't want to say that the county lord refused, and Zheng Lingyi was also 10,000 unwilling.
She is a woman, and she was born to be considered a member of someone else's family, and a woman's marriage is called Yugui, which means that she has finally returned to her original home.
Therefore, Zheng Lingyi did not have to think that Zheng Qijun would recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.
Moreover, it is easy to open an ancestral hall and add a name to enter, as for Zheng Qijun to return to Zheng's mansion, Zheng Lingyi feels that it still depends on his brother's meaning.
The county lord's mansion is clean, only the county lord and her husband Qiu Fei are on weekdays, and the two daughters of the county lord come back to visit is the most lively time, and Zheng Lingyi and Zheng Changchang come to visit as guests.
Zheng Qijun is now in the sensible grade, she once asked him what his impression of Zheng Guogong was, and her younger brother secretly told her, "An old man who is boring is not as easy-going and interesting as his uncle." ’
Zheng Lingyi wanted to laugh when he heard it, Zheng Guogong is older, and he is used to putting up a shelf in front of the children, no better than Qiu Fei, born with a smiling face, and there is also a bit of childlike fun in his temperament, and he gets along with Zheng Qijun day and night, like a father and a brother.
The county lord said to Zheng Lingyi in private that Zheng Guogong didn't care so much about this matter, and just waited for Zheng Qijun's coming-of-age ceremony to add his name to the ancestral tree.
But when Zheng Guogong came that day, he saw Zheng Qijun learning to paint with Qiu Fei, and the two of them were playing with each other, holding a paintbrush and pretending to paint on each other's faces.
As soon as Zheng Qijun saw him, the smile on his face narrowed a little, bowed to him, and said dryly: "Father." ”
Zheng Guogong didn't say anything at the time, but later the county lord realized that Qiu Fei only had a daughter under his knees, and Zheng Guogong was afraid that Zheng Qijun would become his Qiu family!
The county lord had never lost his temper at the moment, but he was very uncomfortable.
There are a lot of things, and the condition is already very good, otherwise the Wu family's New Year will be sad.
This year's New Year's Festival is really restless, Zheng Lingyi gave the people in the courtyard the New Year's money early, and Mrs. Qiu got one more because of her son.
Today, Zheng Lingyi took Wu Zhi to deliver medicinal food to General Wu, and the father and son didn't say a word, but Zheng Lingyi could see that he was happy in his heart.
When I returned to the retreat, I saw Pei'er and Luzhu mixing in the mother-in-law's pile, roasting sweet potatoes and water chestnuts under the porch.
Seeing that Zheng Lingyi was back, Lu Zhu said in her mouth, "Sister Lu Nong is back." So he went to the house.
Fen Niang took the opportunity to come in, everyone didn't want to deal with her, but she got yam eggs out of nowhere, saying that it was for everyone to eat.
Before everyone could react, she threw the yam eggs into the charcoal pot, after all, she was short and soft-mouthed, Fen Niang also stayed in the quiet house for so long, everyone relaxed their vigilance against her, plus it was the New Year's Day, she was always lonely, and felt a little pitiful, so she didn't care about her, and she was crowded in the crowd to roast the fire.
The courtyard is lively, and the house is also lively, Zheng Lingyi, Lu Zhu, and Lu Nong are playing Shuanglu.
Zheng Lingyi taught two people at the same time, Lu Zhu learned quickly, but lost miserably, Lu Nong learned slower, but mastered quickly, and after a few rounds, he also played a draw.
Jiaojiao walked around them, as if she could read them.
Wu Zhi glanced at it occasionally, and then lowered his eyes and continued to change the cloth for his knife handle, the sound of firecrackers outside was endless, but he was very quiet in his heart, because the person he cared about was under his nose, and he smiled and bent his eyes because he had won another game.
Zheng Lingyi stretched his waist and said, "How is it in Zhuangzi?" How's Choro doing today? ”
After today, Lu Nong doesn't have to go to Zhuangzi anymore.
"Everything is fine in the Zhuangzi, and when the slaves and maids leave, they are preparing for the banquet lively. After three days of feasting, everyone is very happy. ”
Hearing Lu Nong's words, Zheng Lingyi asked again: "But after careful screening, what I said is that only those who have worked hard and made meritorious contributions can enter the table." ”
"Yes, some people who fish in troubled waters have also been selected. The stone is very capable of speaking and doing, with a bright voice, making those who fail to enter the face red, thinking that they will work harder next year. Lu Nong said, but lowered his head, avoiding Zheng Lingyi's gaze, as if he was a little ashamed.
Zheng Lingyi thought about it for a while, and said, "Huan'er, isn't she enough to sit at the table?" ”
"How can she be qualified, she is still lazy and lazy, and she takes advantage of Qiaoluo's recuperation, swaggering around in the Zhuangzi under my name, instructing others to work for her. As soon as I went to Zhuangzi, I made an honest and hard-working appearance, if Guo'er hadn't told me, I was afraid that I would still be in the dark, thinking that she had really changed. ”
As soon as Lu Nong mentioned Huan'er, he couldn't help frowning.
She really had a headache with her own girl, so she left Zhuangzi and went into the city without saying a word, and was taught by Qiaoluo and talked back.
Huan'er was still dissatisfied with Guo Guo'er's falling from the sky, bullying her for her young age, always disobeying Guo Guo'er's deployment, and her mouth was not clean, Guo Guo'er didn't know how to deal with it, and she didn't dare to tell Qiaoluo, she really suffered some grievances, and finally there was a time when the stone saw it, and the half-truths scared Huan'er, and then it was stopped.
"That's it, wait for Qiaoluo to give birth to a child, and then free up your hands to discipline it strictly."
If Zheng Lingyi hadn't looked at Lu Nong's face, how could he have given Huan'er a chance again and again.
Lu Nong herself also knows in her heart, watching Pei'er become more and more like a fish in water in the quiet residence, how much she hopes that Huan'er can be like this, stay in the quiet house, stay by her side, but she also knows that Pei'er can stay in the quiet house because of her own hard work and self-denial, not for any other reason.
There was a long string of firecrackers outside, and the Wu family set off the door cannon, shut the gloom outside, and gathered the joy and wealth in the house.
This year, even if there is a thrilling past.
Early in the morning of the fifteenth day of the year, Brother Dian wore a red envelope, and Gao Manyi brought it to General Wu to say goodbye, General Wu smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and stuffed a red box into Gao Manyi's hand, and everyone else was a red envelope, which shows the importance of General Wu.
"Dad, I'm sorry for you." Wu Yongan lowered his head and said.
Old General Wu didn't like it when he saw his frowning appearance, and waved his hand to keep him away.
Last night, the outer courtyard also handed over the news, saying that Wu Yongan did not return overnight, and General Wu asked people to check the reason, but he had a few words with Gao Man, and he never returned.
If it weren't for the fact that he was going to come to ask General Wu for peace this morning, so the sky was bright, and Lingxi Yuan secretly asked the little guy in the outer courtyard to go out to look for him, otherwise I don't know where this person would be drunk.
Wu Yongjun didn't come again, and this time he didn't even come to Wan Yuanyuan, saying that he wanted to take care of him. Qiao's also went to the South Courtyard yesterday, saying that he wanted to go and see his eldest son.
General Wu only thought that Qiao's was going to toss again, so he went with her, but in his heart he only felt that Wu Yongjun was a body that had been deprived of wine, and it would be good to be detained at home for a few days.
However, the doctor who took care of Wu Yan before was reported to Wu Yongjun's hospital early this morning, and there has been no news yet.
Old General Wu can also be regarded as having a grandson who is full of everything, and he really doesn't even bother to take a look at the two unlucky sons in front of him.
General Wu was a little amused, Gao Man also talked and laughed with Zheng Lingyi, Wu Punishment and Wu Yongjun were silent, and the other scratched their ears and cheeks, barely harmonious.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, Zheng Lingyi looked out of the door, and saw Cuilong running quickly towards this side, seeing that her face was in a hurry, and her pace was hurried, it was definitely not a good thing to come to report.
"General, general, madam, let the slave maid come to fetch the old ginseng in your library, the eldest young master, the eldest young master is not good!" Cuilong stroked her chest with difficulty and gasped, and said intermittently.
Old General Wu stood up immediately, first ordered his subordinates to hurry up to get it, and then said: "How could it suddenly come to the point where you want to use old ginseng?" ”
Cuilong shook her head and said, "Slave, no, I don't know, the eldest young master has been in a coma for a long time, and the doctor said that there is no old ginseng, I'm afraid it will be difficult to save." ”
"What a faint thing to say! Your master has a lot of old ginseng, why do you have to get it from me, your son's life is so insignificant? General Wu said angrily.
Cuilong waved her hand again and again, seeing that General Wu was so angry, she didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly said: "Madame's old ginseng was given to the Qiao family intermittently, and now the remaining old ginseng is ten years old, and the medicinal power is not enough." ”
Zheng Lingyi remembered that among the things given by General Wu, there was a century-old ginseng, and she didn't think that in the face of the current situation, she felt extremely precious.
