Chapter 43: Jiang Cheng
Back in the house, Jiang Lan directly asked people to prepare water, and sent everyone to jump directly into the wooden bucket filled with cold water with their clothes closed.
After a while, Jiang Lan lifted the sleeve of his left arm, and the red blood on the hideous wound was glowing with golden light, only a trace of it, but it also played a great role.
The sea of consciousness is full of holes, and the golden warm current flows into it, faintly.
The open wound was still overflowing outward, Jiang Lan clenched her hands, closed her eyes, and her thoughts drifted to the sea of stars.
changed into an ice blue shirt with narrow sleeves, the placket and cuffs were embroidered with royal blue silk threads, and the indigo trousers were tied in cotton boots, looking at himself in the mirror, his lips were a little paler, and Jiang Lan touched the layer of lipstick lightly.
Da Chen's man Shang Wen is weak in his bones, and he is full of fat powder, although Jiang Lan doesn't like it, but now he doesn't seem abrupt.
A faint layer of light and vitality on the weak face.
Jiang Lan tightened the jade belt and put on the silver snow coat, but the whole person was less turbid and more immortal.
picked up the small golden fan on the sandalwood table, shook it slightly against the bronze mirror, and in a blink of an eye, his temperament changed suddenly, and in an instant, he became the bohemian and unruly rich and noble brother who fell into the mortal dust.
Jiang Lan hung the jade pendant and purse around her waist, and took out a few talismans from the simple wooden box on the sandalwood table and stuffed them into the sleeves of her wide belt and put them properly.
Open the bedroom door and feel the scent of the sun outside.
Xichi obediently waited in front of the door, not daring to leave a step.
"Childe, can you prepare food?"
Jiang Lan's ears moved slightly, and the east wing room was lively, it seemed that Sister Lan was burping again, which made several grandmothers laugh.
"What hour?"
"Hui Gongzi, two quarters of an hour at noon."
Thinking of the kid yesterday, just a few walls, Jiang Lan shook his fan and slipped through the nearest corner gate like the clansman's residence.
Xichi silently followed behind him, and the atmosphere was not out, like an invisible person.
Jiang Lan rarely showed her face, even the last time she asked the patriarch to do a clan study, it was done quickly, and the clansmen who packed up and were ready to pay their respects didn't even see a shadow.
Seeing Jiang Lan's noble son's dress, the clansmen just felt that there was a good son.
Some of them are curious, and those who have a school-age daughter in the boudoir at home can't help but inquire.
I didn't realize it when I came and went, so I had to give up.
After the discussion of the elders in the clan, a quiet place was selected not far from the ancestral hall, and I only hope that the ancestors will bless and let the naughty disciples of the family do their studies seriously and carefully.
In addition to the Weng Sheng Xiucai who was invited by Jiang Lan as a gift, there is also a great Confucian. Among the nephews of the Jiang family, there are several descendants who are sixteen or seventeen years old and excellent at studying, and Jiang Lan's cheap "lobby brother" hit the idea on a side branch of the Pei family who was convicted in Jiangnan.
The Pei family has always passed down poetry and books, and in addition to a lot of literary masters in the past dynasties, even Emperor Fang, who is now loved and admired by students all over the world, is afraid that it cannot compare with the prestige of the Pei family in Shilin.
The filthiness in a hundred-year-old family like the Pei family is not necessarily less than that of the palace inside, and the cheap "lobby brother" is interested in the third master of the convicted side branch. is a rising star, the most sluggish person in the clan, squatting under the uncle all day long to watch the ants.
Unexpectedly, he was a peerless and intelligent person, who had watched it for ten years, but his words shocked the students of the world.
It's a pity that it's a side branch, or a concubine who is not favored, seeing that the reputation of the place is rising, the great sect of the Pei family is a fool for fear that this well-known Pei Sanye will endanger his status, and he made a mistake not long ago, so he designed it on Pei San's body.
Pei San is also a serious reader, where there are so many twists and turns, and he was imprisoned all of a sudden, pitying the only son and weak wife in the family.
Originally, the Pei family was a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was not a big deal to spend some money, but I never thought that the sect was extremely vicious, and he must be rectified to death.
His cheap "lobby brother" got the news, and unceremoniously and resolutely sent the most powerful eldest son in the family over, smashed the silver up and down, and rescued the person.
When Jiang Lan knew, she secretly went to a few underground gambling games and sent a lot of silver to her eldest cousin that night.
But the eldest cousin didn't accept it, just licked his smiling face and threw a few winks, completely forgetting his wrinkled old face, and calling "little cousin" vigorously, making his scalp numb and I don't know what to say.
Later, I learned that the old man was an official from the top and bottom of Jiangnan who relied on his own name to make points.
Jiang Lan still patiently gave the "Brother Lobby" a vivid and abnormal lesson in cause and effect, and then viciously took the silver back into his pocket, and accepted the filial piety from the "Brother Lobby" by the way.
After going around a few flower-wearing porches, Langlang's reading sound became clearer and clearer, passing by the hollow place on the wall of white foundation, Jiang Lan stopped and looked inside, with a proud face.
Sure enough, it's still the most handsome cub in his own house!
The enlightenment for young children is a gentleman invited by Jiang Lan, who is also an old pedant, who has read sixty years, and is the most upright person, but his temper is stubborn, otherwise how would he be frustrated.
Just this is the identity of a person, but if you live a little more and make a few friends, it is more than that.
The Jiang family invited Pei Jiu Pei Sanye, a great Confucian in the south, and many families in Jiankang City knew about it, and many people came here to study with heavy courtesy.
The cheap "lobby brother" also asked for opinions, but Jiang Lan only replied and asked him to deal with it with all his powers.
The sound of reading in the courtyard stopped suddenly, and Jiang Lan looked at it, as if the master had finished class.
Leaning against the wall, Jiang Lan secretly looked at the group of carrot heads. The clothes are different, most of them are arrowroot, and there are several wearing gorgeous clothes, although Brother Ming's plain white robe is luxurious, but it is not eye-catching, and people who don't know how to do it seem to be similar to ordinary cotton cloth.
Jiang Lan praised the thoughts of the grandmother in the courtyard.
Although food and clothing were deliberately avoided, the news that Brother Ming sent him to cultivate still spread. After passing through the banner of being a scholar to the outside world, the old fox "Brother Lobby" still saw the difference at a glance.
Seeing that Brother Ming was both majestic and quite close to him on weekdays, Jiang Lan knew the old fox's mind at a glance, but he just went with the flow and didn't find out.
After class, a swarm of children ran out, Brother Ming walked at the end, and a few well-dressed children said a few words to him, and then left, and finally he was left alone.
The noon of the Jiang clan is not to eat, the master gave an hour of time, the students who are close are all home to eat, and those who are far away are like coming to the Jiang family to study, and the "big hall brother" specially split out the No. 1 house for those children of the family who borrow here, only for lunch break, and the meals are still prepared by themselves.
Jiang Ruoming doesn't go back to the house to eat, in order to have more time to study, he won't take a break, he has been reading and practicing calligraphy. His master praised this child to the patriarch more than once, and the "big hall brother" would always try his best to reach his ears.
How could Jiang Lan not know his little bit of caution.
Watching Brother Ming clean up and walk out, Jiang Lan walked towards the flower gate, leaning against the wall. Seeing the little man running over, he stretched out his hand, only to see him silently leading, and the corners of his eyes revealed and hid in the bottom of his heart with joy.
It's a kid after all.
Xichi took Brother Ming'er's small book bag and followed the two of them.
"Why is my uncle here? Didn't you say to go to school? Brother Ming thought it was school in the afternoon. ”
Jiang Lan looked at the stars in the child's eyes, pure and unstained like stars, and her whole body was comfortable, and the injuries on her arms were not so painful.
"I want to see you when I have nothing to do."
Jiang Lan followed Brother Ming to the room where he was resting, it was not big, it was a bed and a desk, simple and simple, there was a small window on the inside, and there was a garden behind it, which seemed to be rarely taken care of, and it was very deserted.
I'm afraid there are a lot of mosquitoes in the summer, so I have to talk to the "lobby brother" when I go back.
Xichi used the book bag as a desk and retreated to the door.
Little Radish Head moved the chair out, "Little uncle, sit." ”
Jiang Lan sat up and looked at the calves swinging on the side of the bed, faintly red dots.
Sure enough, there are nasty mosquitoes at this time.
Jiang Lan's eyes flashed fiercely, this matter can't be delayed.
Jiang Lan got up, and the little man next to her pulled her sleeve, "Doesn't the little uncle eat with Brother Ming?" ”
Jiang Lan touched the smooth hair, "Master has something." ”
The child was sensible and did not keep him.
Jiang Lan went out and turned around and slipped into the "lobby brother" room to "rub rice".
Looking at the red-faced and vigorous "Brother Lobby", Jiang Lan looked at his luck color, red with purple, and he could live for one or two decades more without accident, not like an old man in his old age at all.
Looking a little younger than the eldest son who poured wine and served beside him, this is a different fate.
Because of his father, the sons of the old patriarch have done a few errands under Jiang Lan and recognize their appearance. Seeing the arrival of the prince, he immediately got up to greet him.
"Uncle Xiaotang!" Jiang Cheng's voice was loud and his face was full of enthusiasm, if it weren't for his little cousin, he wouldn't have seen the good scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the beauties there~
It's just that before going out, the old father told him that the money was spent on the blade, and he sent several beauties to get through the officials in Jiangnan, and the beauties he hoped for were only for the sake of watching.
The land south of the Yangtze River is really rich, and there are many people who spend a lot of money, which really arouses the money worms in the stomach.
Today, I specially bought good wine to serve my old father, just to let the old father loosen his mouth and let him take his eldest son to open up the business in Jiangnan. It's been more than ten days, and his mouth is bubbling in a hurry, and one day is a lot of white silver.
Now that the old father has just drunk to the end, he is ready to speak, and he never thought that he would meet such a noble person as the son.
Isn't that God helping me!!
Jiang Lan felt the enthusiasm coming from all sides, especially this "little nephew" Jiang Cheng, his mouth was as if he had been smeared with honey oil, and the good words jumped out one by one, and he couldn't hold it back.
Looking at an old man over sixty years old, calling himself "Uncle Xiaotang" affectionately, the corners of Jiang Lan's mouth twitched.
Looking at the slightly drunk "Brother Lobby", Jiang Lan patted him on the shoulder, "Brother Lobby, do you need to sober up?" ”
The treacherous old man, with two clusters of morning glow, laughed with himself vigorously.
Jiang Lan knew at a glance that this was a high drink, but his son was not there!
Father's debt is repaid by the son.
