Juvenile Yin Volume 3 Chapter 2 Lu Jiuer who wrote the Chronicle (II)
Because Master Qi did not return to the house and did not receive a pardon, the second aunt and grandmother were still grounded in their own Taoli Garden, but she was still very shrewd in her ears and immediately learned about it.
The second aunt and grandmother lost their temper at the moment, and led the servants in the courtyard to scold at the gate of the walled courtyard. The meaning between the words is to angrily accuse the fifth aunt and grandmother of the ineffective housekeeping, harm people and things, and hide intentions and so on.
Of course, the real words are only more pungent and vulgar. Here is not the table.
Scolding is also exquisite. The servants and maids of Taoli Garden specially separated two groups, one group was tired of scolding, and the other group continued to scold, scolding endlessly, day and night.
Cai Lixuan's location is already remote, close to the streets and alleys, far away from the inner courtyard. But when the gust of wind blows, you can clearly hear the words in the scolding. Lu Jiuer was amazed at this kind of street scolding skills, and the old Confucian Ouyang Zhai was the most impatient with such mundane things, so he locked himself in the room and was quiet.
It is said that the fifth aunt and grandmother were angry at the second room, and they wanted to tear down their bones and eat their flesh, but the matter had to be resolved. I didn't dare to rest that night, so I immediately summoned all the related subordinates to kneel in the courtyard, beat a few with a stick, and then threw the people in front of the courtyard of the second aunt and grandmother and the third young master Qi and knelt and cried and confessed their mistakes and begged for mercy, and the incident calmed down a little.
However, the second aunt and grandmother still let go of the cruel words, if her son did not pass the exam this time, she would be blamed on the head of the fifth room, and she would not stop fighting with her life.
The fifth aunt and grandmother were from a scholarly family, and they scoffed at this arrogant and unreasonable act and ignored it. But after this incident, the days when I was waiting for the list to be released almost grabbed the hearts and minds of the entire Qifu people.
Ouyang's manuscript became a rarity in the circle of readers, and the bookstore sent people to greet and ask for it every day. The shopkeeper also came to accompany Xiao Ha and asked if he could send the accumulated manuscripts out first and let them arrange for someone to sort them out, so as not to have Miss Jiu'er have to take care of the master and rush to sort it out, and it would be bad if she was tired and busy.
Ouyang Zhai was not in a hurry, and in a few words, he politely refused to persuade the shopkeeper away, and then ordered Lu Jiu'er to concentrate on the whole manuscript quietly, and not to listen to Mo Li.
Of course, Jiu'er is happy to do what she is told.
On a clear day, the county test was finally released-
The two young masters of the Qi family were all passed. It's a real joy for all!
After the news came back, the laughter and laughter in the house were endless, and the wife and aunt of the host family gave a big reward, and also set up a flowing water table for the relatives, friends and neighbors who came to congratulate them.
Lu Jiuer specially ran to the front hall to "pass by", and saw Wei Dahai busy there, but he was excited and not tired. didn't come forward to bother, only grabbed a handful of melon seeds for hospitality by the way, sat under the porch and inquired with the porter, and finally learned that the Wei family kid also won the county exam, she pursed her lips and smiled and left quietly.
Later, I heard that after Wei Ziqian was admitted to the examination, he was also arranged to study in Yide Academy. But nothing else.
The busy days are like fish in water, with their tails wagging, slipping away and never returning.
With Ouyang's handwritten comments in the tea shop and the completion of the book, Ouyang Zhai's name became more and more known. Many people in the streets and alleys began to talk to each other to explore the origin of this great Confucian figure. There are even dignitaries and nobles who are looking for relationship channels, and they want to contact Ouyang Zhai to be a gentleman's chair, and even Master Qi, who is far away in Suzhou and Hangzhou, was alarmed, and he asked the post station to send it back to inquire about the situation.
The fifth aunt and grandmother tried their best to invite Ouyang Zhai to the mansion after thousands of invitations, and they were already respectful and courteous to Mr. Now the gossip outside the house is spreading everywhere, and they have received a letter from the master, so they pay more attention to Mr. 's affairs.
When the weather was clear and cloudless, and then calculated the hour after Ouyang Zhai's noon and daylight, the fifth aunt and grandmother sent someone to invite the master to the main hall to talk. Lu Jiuer wanted to sort out the notes, and with Ouyang Zhai's permission, she stayed in the study to continue writing. It was Xia Man who took the initiative to follow the waiter.
Cai Lixuan lost his voice, and suddenly quieted down.
I don't know how much time passed, there was a sound of the door panel kicking open at the door of the Louder Courtyard, which startled a tree of sparrows to fly around, and also frightened Lu Jiu'er's wrist, and the brush immediately pulled it, destroying a page so easily. She felt helpless in her heart.
I'm going to have to do it all over again.
"Lu Jiu'er, come out!"
A buzzing roar came into the room, and it was actually the little devil Qi Bowen.
This demon king of the world can't be treated lightly. Lu Jiuer hurriedly put down her pen and ink, and walked out of the wing room to greet her while responding.
Qi Bowen stood in the center of the courtyard with his hands on his waist, the corners of his lips were pursed, and his eyebrows were angry.
What's wrong with this little ancestor, all of a sudden he was enthusiastic and unrestrained, he ignored it all of a sudden, and all of a sudden he appeared in the world. How can people bear it?
Jiu'er's eyes glanced sympathetically at Wumei, who was hiding outside the courtyard and wanted to enter but didn't dare to enter, but was shocked by Wumei's compassionate eyes that also looked at her and begged for more blessings.
Lu Jiu'er smiled bitterly in her heart, but her face quickly adjusted her expression, and she saluted respectfully: "Seventh Young Master is well." ”
He looked at each other with his eyes, and said nothing.
Lu Jiu'er smiled and said carefully: "Now that the master has gone out and has not returned, do you want to wait in the courtyard, or go to the tea room to rest, or go back to the ...... first?"
"I'm looking for you!" Qi Bowen roared as soon as he spoke.
Seeing this, Lu Jiu'er was unhappy. But who let others settle down when they were reincarnated, endure it.
Lu Jiu'er smiled and nodded. "Okay young master, do you have anything to order?"
Qi Bowen didn't speak for a long time, just stared at her with a shit on his face. Lu Jiuer sighed in her heart, comforting herself that she was not as knowledgeable as a child.
"Seventh Young Master, a few days ago, the master got some good tea, and he also gave a small handful of them by the way, and I was reluctant to use it. Why don't you sit in the tea room now and I'll brew it for you?" Lu Jiu'er spoke softly and smiled.
Qi Bowen's eyes blinked. Lu Jiu'er felt that the tense atmosphere seemed to be a little loose, and hurriedly spread her hands to invite. "Young master, please."
He remained motionless, and it was so long that she was about to give up, and then he let out a heavy "um" and walked forward with his legs raised.
Lu Jiu'er and Wumei by the doorpost couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Maybe it was too coincidental, and the sound was quite abrupt, and the two of them looked at each other for a while, Qi Bowen had immediately turned around halfway, and his angry eyes swept over:
"What?"
"This way, please! Young master, please! Lu Jiu'er hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way.
This little demon god pillar is really not a way in the main gate courtyard, so it is better to quickly lock people in the tea room first, and when the time comes, depending on the situation, you can also find an excuse to slip away.
Qi Bowen's figure seems to have risen a little higher, but because he likes snacks, his chubby figure continues to develop horizontally, but fortunately, he is usually too skinny, and he loves to jump up and down, and his hands and feet are quite flexible.
Lu Jiu'er originally ran two steps ahead to lead the way in order to show politeness, but he didn't take three or five steps before she was ahead of her again.
Lu Jiu'er shrugged her shoulders and threw out the sentence, "Then you sit down for a while, I'll go make tea first", and then turned around and walked away.
When the little devil heard this, he immediately paused, turned to glare at her.
Although Jiu'er didn't have eyes behind her head, she knew it in her heart, so she just pretended not to know, so she continued to do what she had to do, and blinked into her room to rummage through the tea. The little devil was not easy to follow, so he sent Wumei to follow and star, and he was willing to go in and sit and wait.
Under the supervision of Wu Mei Jiong's eyes, Lu Jiu'er had to speed up the words in his hand, quickly brewed a pot of supposedly good tea, and then put a plate of sticky cake into the tray, and reluctantly went back to explore the tiger's beard.
Qi Bowen was bored in the tea room, so he casually looked for the book and looked at it twice, and then threw it away. Unexpectedly, I saw the master's sword hanging on the wall, and my heart itched.
This is the master's beloved thing that he is not allowed to move on weekdays, and he took advantage of this opportunity to move a low stool and play with his feet.
It was a scribe's sword, although it was already a light sword, but the little kid was still heavy in his hand, and he still opened the blade of the sword, although Qi Bowen was skinny, he didn't dare to sheath it indiscriminately, he only dared to stroke the sheath and play.
Lu Jiu'er estimated that it was no big deal, so she didn't stop it. He poured a cup of tea and served it with both hands.
"Young master drink tea."
Qi Bowen took it and drank it obediently.
Lu Jiu'er saw that the atmosphere seemed to have eased a lot, so she cautiously asked, "Why is the young master here today?" ”
