Chapter 27 Everybody's Happy
After a few rounds of tea tasting, Cao Sanniang accompanied Li Qingrou, Sun Miaoniang, and Gao Guiying to the lake to enjoy the plum blossoms and see the mandarin ducks in the warm dock.
Huo Wenlin wanted to pick some red plum buds to make a dark fragrant soup.
This summer, she met Mrs. Xie Shangshu Shao Shi in Daxiangguo Temple, Mrs. Shao invited her to drink once, and the boiling water rushed in, and the green plums rolled and bloomed with the water, just like blooming on the branches, as beautiful as they were.
She has already negotiated with Mrs. Shao, the plum blossoms in Caofu are the best, she wants to pick some red plum buds back, and pickle some out, and next summer, she will also have a dark fragrant soup to entertain guests.
She thinks that the red plum is definitely better looking than the green plum.
Only Li Ran and Wang Ji remained in the warm pavilion.
The two of them left the wide tea table and sat down in the small warm pavilion recessed on the side of the warm pavilion.
Today's tea, not only the tea banquet is exquisite, but the selection of this warm pavilion is also extremely exquisite.
There is a large warm pavilion in the middle, connected with several small pavilions or small warm pavilions, separated from each other and not separated, which is very suitable for the embarrassment of the two little ladies of the Li family.
There is a charcoal basin in the small warm pavilion, and the window facing the merlin is wide open, warm and does not delay the view.
Li Ran walked to the window and looked out.
Although it was not windy outside, there was still a wind, and according to what she had just felt, the wind should have been able to blow through the window, but she didn't feel the wind.
Li Ran approached the window, probed slightly, and saw the walking barriers standing on the side of the window, which blocked the few wisps of cold wind blowing obliquely towards the window.
Sure enough, all enjoyment is inseparable from money, lots and lots of money.
Wang Ji stood behind Li Ran, pursed his lips and smiled, looking at her and looking around.
It was said that this girl was eccentric and unkind, and even General Xie said that she was weird, but she thought she was very cute, very easy-going, and easy to get along with.
Li Ran looked around and sat down.
The armchairs are covered with thick brocade cushions, which are wide and comfortable.
Wang Ji sat on another armchair, holding tea, Li Ran leisurely looked at the scenery outside, and she also looked out the window, enjoying the scenery.
"Is the second lady of the Zhongyong Uncle Sun family like her sister?" Li Ran glanced at Mama Yang who was passing by outside the warm pavilion and asked curiously.
The tea party of the Cao family was obviously much more thoughtful and sleek than the flower viewing in the Hejian County Palace.
The two little ladies of the Cao family, one is a little soft and timid, the other is straightforward, they are not too smart, and their wit and long-sleeved dancing should obviously be the result of long-term teaching and training.
The old lady in this mansion who supported the Cao family and revived the Cao family is not simple.
If the second lady Sun who married into this Cao Mansion is similar to her younger sister, then how does she live in such a Cao family, under the hands of that extremely not simple old lady? What kind of life are you living?
She was really curious, but she was just curious.
Wang Ji raised his hand to cover his mouth, laughed for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Sun Xiuniang, the eldest lady of the Sun family, I heard that since she was very young, she can be the master of the house for her Mrs. Aniangtao, I have seen Grandma Sun a few times, she is reasonable and generous, and her appearance is also the best among the three sisters." Otherwise, Mrs. Chen would not have been able to marry her back and become the eldest daughter-in-law.
The second grandson Qiaoniang, is better than the third Niang's grandson Miaoniang......"
Wang Ji paused, and smiled dryly.
"After all, I am a few years older, and I always have to be sensible. Second Grandma Sun married into the Cao family the year before last, and I heard that Mrs. Wu loved her the most, and Mrs. Wu took her wherever she went, and she couldn't do without her. ”
Li Ran blinked a few times, and met Wang Ji's gaze that seemed to be smiling and smiling, and he instantly understood.
This is the most beloved, this one has always been with me, and I was held firmly by Mrs. Wu's side, and I taught and trained it by the way.
Alas, it is not easy for this second grandmother, but it is even more difficult for the old lady.
"The three masters of the Li family, the second master is more ordinary, and he has taken the path of Enyin early.
Uncle Li has been fighting beside Hou Ye Li since he was very young, leading his troops to rush into battle, saying that compared to Hou Ye Li, he is out of the blue.
Li Sanye has been reading with the prince since he was a child, and his talent for reading is very good.
The prince's companion since childhood, plus my third brother, a total of four, are all preparing for the imperial examination, and they are only one or two subjects, two or three subjects, all of which are required.
In the future, the uncle of the Li family attacked the lord and followed the martial arts, and the third master of Li took the imperial examination from the literature, and the Li family walked away. ”
A girl came over to make tea and change tea, Wang Ji paused, and waited for the girl to change the tea before continuing to gossip.
"The eldest lady of the Li family was married the year before last. After the release of the list in the spring of the previous year, Niangniang was a matchmaker and married Hu Rong, a newcomer to the new department, the Hu family is a Wang family in Shanxi, a scholarly family, Hu Rong is talented and good-looking, and he is a good family.
After getting married, Hu Rong ordered the Fuchun County Order, and now the husband and wife are in Fuchun.
Now, the youngest son and daughter of the Marquis of Chang'an have not yet decided to marry, and Mrs. Chen has taken a fancy to Mrs. Huo and her third brother. ”
Li Ran, who was drinking tea, snorted and almost choked.
"Old Madam Chen, what she wants to do, has always been fanfare, and she doesn't hide it." Wang Ji couldn't tell what expression he was.
"Marry Li Qingrou into the Hejian County Palace, and at the same time marry Mrs. Huo back?" Li Ran put down the cup and confirmed with Wang Ji in disbelief.
"Mrs. Chen said that if you can do this, it will be very good. She didn't dare to think about it, these two are good relatives anywhere, and if they can form one, she will be satisfied. ”
"It's the Li family, it's okay anywhere, but the Huo family doesn't necessarily." Li Ran wanted to laugh inexplicably.
"Hmm." Wang Ji wanted to laugh, but sighed again, "Fortunately, it is the Hejian County Palace, which can probably resist." ”
"Lady Huo......" Li Ran dragged out her voice, "I don't know how, the third son of the Huo family is not necessarily a good match for the third lady." ”
Li Ran thought about the grandeur of Huo Sangongzi, and said the same thing, and then thought about Li Qingrou's temper and IQ, for Li Qingrou, this third son is really not a good relative.
"Third brother said......" Wang Ji's words were interrupted by a burst of laughter and footsteps, and Li Qingrou, who went to the warm dock to see the mandarin ducks, came back and entered the small warm pavilion on the other side.
"Third brother said......" Wang Jian stopped listening to the footsteps, and was about to continue what he had just said, when a loud and sharp voice came from the small warm pavilion on the other side, "Don't stop me, I haven't finished speaking, I don't have anything to say, what if you hold me out?" ”
It sounds like the voice of Sun Miaoniang, the third lady of Zhongyong Bofu.
Wang Ji looked at Li Ran, who was slightly sideways and listened with great interest, and her heart was slightly raised, with intuition, she felt that the sharpness of the third lady of the Sun family was only related to Li Ran.
Li Ran glanced at Wang Ji, raised his hand and pressed it down, and then pointed to the small warm pavilion over there, signaling Wang Ji who wanted to do something, and listened quietly.
"That's right, what can't be said, I think Miao Niang is right, Miao Niang, don't pay attention to her, you say yours." It is the voice of Gao Guiying, the second lady of Zhongyi Bofu.
"That is, if you can't see people, she can't see people, and it's not that we can't see people, why can't you say it?"
Sun Miaoniang's voice seemed to be even higher than just now.
"I just can't get used to her pretending virtue, do you really think of yourself as a princess? Bah!
Emperor Renzong's will, who in the world does not know? How is it said? Those who refuse to die are not the descendants of their Lu family, and they are not even allowed to have a surname of Lu!
Her mother, greedy for life and afraid of death! Disloyal and unfilial, Emperor Renzong let her die and she won't die, and he still pulls the princess's signboard to swagger and deceive, without any face! Bah! Shame on you!
Replaced me, there is such a greedy and afraid of death, disloyal and unfilial, once against the will of Emperor Renzong, I can't raise my head in this life, if I had already hit my head to death, she would dare to swagger everywhere, where did she get face? ”
Wang Ji's face turned blue, he stood up with a sigh, and stretched out his hand to pull Li Ran.
Li Ran grabbed her hand, pulled her down, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, you sit down, at least half of what she said is good, it's such a reason, you sit down." ”
Wang Ji was pulled by Li Ran to sit down, his whole body was tense, and his upper body was straight.
"That's right, Miao Niang is so right! That's great!
The gentleman in our family study also said the same, and the gentleman in our family study also said, don't say anything about the princess, even mentioning a Lu character is disrespectful to Emperor Renzong.
said that she was the bloodline of the previous dynasty, a princess or something, where was Emperor Renzong?
If people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, disloyal and unfilial, still call them princesses, and what kind of royal bloodline, the two wills of Emperor Renzong, wouldn't it be a fart? ”
Gao Guiying's happy voice was mixed with crisp slaps.
"Let's go out for a walk." Wang Ji stood up again and reached out to pull Li Ran.
Li Ran exhaled slowly, pushed away Wang Jian's hand, slowly stood up, followed Wang Jian, walked out of the small warm pavilion, and at the door of the big warm pavilion, paused, looked at Wang Jian, who was about to reach out to pull her, and said with a low smile: "I'll say a few words in the past, don't worry." ”
As he spoke, without waiting for Wang Ji to answer, Li Ran turned around and walked towards the small warm pavilion on the other side.
"Hey!" Wang Ran's heart suddenly lifted, hurriedly followed, stretched out his hand and pulled Li Ran, but was thrown away by Li Ran, and when he wanted to pull again, Li Ran had already entered the small warm pavilion.
In the small warm pavilion, Cao Sanniang had her back to the entrance, suppressing her voice, anxiously trying to persuade Sun Miaoniang.
Sun Miaoniang faced the entrance, one hand crossed her waist, and the other hand kept pulling out to hold her Cao Sanniang, with a high spirit, "If you hear it, you hear it, what's wrong with it?" Am I wrong? Am I afraid she won't ......?"
Seeing Li Ran who suddenly broke in, Sun Miaoniang's high-spirited words choked suddenly, and subconsciously lowered the hand that was crossed at the waist, and a layer of panic and uneasiness appeared on her face, and after a moment, she reacted, raised her hands violently, crossed her waist left and right, raised her chin high, and snorted hard at Li Ran, "If you hear it, you hear it!" Since I said it, I'm not afraid of you hearing it! ”
Li Ran ignored Sun Miaoniang, and looked at Gao Guiying, who was standing next to Sun Miaoniang, who was excited, and kept slapping her face, to Li Qingrou, who was sitting in the armchair next to her, holding the corner of the handkerchief with one hand, and was already frozen there.
"Sister Wang!" When Cao Sanniang saw Li Ran coming in, her anxious tears fell, and then she saw Wang Ran, who followed Li Ran in, and saw a life-saving straw.
"What you said, the will and bloodline, there is some truth, it's just that the sentence of greed for life and fear of death is wrong." Li Ran looked at Sun Miaoniang and said calmly.
Sun Miaoniang saw that Li Ran still had a smile on her face, her courage rose, and her momentum rose, "Isn't it greedy for life and afraid of death?" It's greedy for life and afraid of death!
What a princess, what a royal noble, what a noble bloodline, phew!
Our old grandson family is not noble, but our old grandson family has no greedy people who are afraid of death, there is no one!
Hum! ”
Gao Guiying slapped her face vigorously, "Miao Niang said it so well!" That's it! Our Lao Gao family is the same, and there are no people in our family who are greedy for life and afraid of death, not one! Isn't it just a dead word, what's there to be afraid of? Miao Niang said it well! ”
"I'm not afraid of death, that's good."
Li Ran said slowly, her gaze slanted from Sun Miaoniang to Gao Guiying, who slapped wildly, took a step back, suddenly reached out, grabbed a silver shining thing from Gao Ji, picked up a cup of hot tea with the other hand, stepped forward, raised her hand, the silver light was high, and stabbed Gao Guiying's neck.
"Then kill you!"
When Gao Guiying heard the word killing, there was a cold stinging pain in her neck, and she suddenly screamed fiercely, which was miserable and terrifying.
Her neck is broken, she's going to die!
When Gao Guiying's screams started, Sun Miaoniang was splashed with hot tea in Li Ran's other hand, and her eyes suddenly widened, and she screamed in horror and fell to the ground.
She killed Gui Ying, it was blood, sprayed on her face and body, hot, blood!
From Li Ran's fierce killing word, when the silver light in his hand rose, Li Qingrou's eyes were round, stiff and straight, unable to move. When Gao Guiying and Sun Miaoniang screamed in their ears, Li Qingrou followed the screams, her head tilted and she fainted, and even fell to the ground with a chair.
Cao Sanniang was stupid and became a wooden man, her eyes were round, her mouth was half open, and she was so stupid that she even stopped breathing.
Wang Ji reacted the fastest, stayed for a moment, turned around suddenly, and shouted at Xiao Nuan Pavilion: "Come on!" Come! ”
shouted a few times, turned around violently, and was catching up with Li Ran, who turned around leisurely and looked at her with a smile.
Li Ran held the silver chopsticks in his hand and sent them to Wang Ji, his hand was slightly tilted, and the silver chopsticks fell to the ground, crisp and clanging.
Wang Jizhi's stunned gaze lifted from the silver chopsticks that had bounced a few times on the ground, and watched Li Ran raise his other hand, turn the teacup happily between a few fingers, and put it on the high table next to him.
Wang Yi was stunned and couldn't think anymore, so he just looked at Li Ran holding up her skirt, squatting beside Sun Miaoniang, stretching out two fingers, lifting Sun Miaoniang's skirt, looking at the white silk pants that were wet under the skirt, she chuckled, put the skirt up, and clearly exposed the large urine stains.
Wang Ji took a sharp breath, came back to his mind for a while, turned sideways and let go of the mother-in-law who was rushing in, watched Li Ran move, and lifted Gao Guiying's skirt as well.
Li Ran stood up, looked at the two large pools of urine stains with satisfaction, clapped his hands happily, turned his head and smiled with Wang Ji: "Is this considered greed for life and fear of death?" ”
Wang Ji looked straight at Li Ran, unable to say a word.
