Twenty, change the sky
On this day, Mrs. Ye saw that the young masters and grandmothers in the house had nothing to do, and said with a smile: "It's not good to hold back in the house every day, didn't I let you go out for a walk a while ago?" ”
Everyone responded, and Tong Shuang said: "My father asked someone to spread the word that the peach blossom forest on the hillside behind my house is blooming well, like a sea of pink flowers. ”
When Ye Lusheng heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "It's really worth seeing." ”
Tong Shuang said again: "As long as it's not ugly, my father also said that the peach blossom wine brewed last year was also dug up." ”
Old Madam Ye smiled: "It sounds very good, you juniors will go and take a look, as for me and my sister, I won't bother you." ”
When everyone heard this, they all warmly invited, but Mrs. Ye was a good person, so she just stopped.
In this way, it is decided to go down to the back hillside to see the peach blossoms.
When Tong Fu heard the news, he hurriedly went to call the owner of the Peach Blossom Forest to dismiss all the people who were watching the tour, dotted up and down, added some other flowers and plants, and cleaned up a few good guest rooms. Due to the rush of time, there was no time to replace the floor, windows, thresholds and other trivial things, so I had to put a lot of thought into eating and eating, and invited a lot of cooks and sedan chairmen, all of which were configured according to the preferences of the young masters.
The next day, the Ye family and his entourage went out of the house, saw the peach blossoms in the mountains, and drank and talked and laughed, everyone was happy, and rewarded the host's family with a lot of money. Tong Fu also shared a lot in private, and said, "What, I said that I would get rich this time, didn't I?" ”
At first, the owner was dissatisfied with driving tourists out and cutting off the financial route, but now he has made a lot of money, squinting and smiling: "In the future, I will rely on Brother Tong's support." ”
Tong Fu listened to it and said, "I'm afraid that the peach blossoms alone can't let them stay for a long time, and the elder brother has to put more effort into it and be fully prepared." ”
After that, he looked around again, and then stepped forward to speak in his ear.
For a while, someone came to Ye's house, and Ye San went out of the house to pick up guests, but it was Wang Pinmei and his party.
Ye San saw the salute, led him into the hall, and said, "Mrs. Wang, wait a minute, my wife will come." ”
Wang Pinmei nodded, waited for a while, and the accompanying maid Qiuyue scolded in a low voice: "I don't know what we are when we have a cup of tea?" ”
Wang Pinmei sneered: "I have to encounter the matter of changing my own family business, and it is not too happy, and it is not too much for her to sell her face." ”
After a while, Ye San came to report: "Mrs. Wang, my wife invites you to the East Courtyard for a detailed discussion." Wang Pinmei asked, "What's the matter?" But what happened? ”
Ye San looked at the Wang family's large group of people: "It's not good to say it here, Mrs. Wang come with me." Wang Pinmei had to take Qiuyue with her.
Incense was burning in the house, and the light smoke smelled good. Mrs. Ye asked Rui Xi to invite Wang Pinmei to take a seat, and then instructed Xiao Yan to inform Mrs. Wang.
Wang Pinmei sat down, Baba waited for the slip in Mrs. Wang's hand, and it was valid when the two sides drew the charge.
When Mrs. Wang came, her face was unhappy, so she asked Mu Zhi to give the slips and drink tea with a calm face, and Mrs. Ye smiled and said, "In-laws, I'm bothering you to take care of me for a while." ”
Wang Pinmei was overjoyed, but Mrs. Wang persuaded: "This matter is very important, should my sister think about it again?" ”
Old Madam Ye glanced at her and sneered, "What's the matter, isn't the Wang family willing to help with this?" really disappointed the friendship between the two Ye Wangs. ”
Wang Pinmei glanced at Mrs. Wang with disgust, and said with a smile: "The old lady doesn't need to be informed, I'm afraid that my sister is too leisurely and her brain is confused." ”
Mrs. Wang's face was unhappy, and she only said: "My sister speaks so heartily, I just remind you, if you don't listen, you will be charged." ”
Mrs. Ye had earlier dipped the seal of the Ye Mansion in red mud and printed it on the document properly, and Wang Pinmei was suspicious and also printed the seal.
There were two copies of the receipts, and Mrs. Ye said: "Take a closer look at the in-laws, if there is no mistake, it will be collected." ”
Wang Pinmei said that she didn't need to see it from the beginning, and said: "The black and white words are clear, presumably Ye Fu is not a person who breaks his word." ”
Mrs. Ye smiled: "No, my in-laws are willing to help me a lot, it's too late to thank you." ”
Wang Pinmei thought in her heart, once the turmoil passed, she would not return the tea garden; Even if you really want to return it, the good green tea seedlings have been dug up by your own family, and if you destroy the tea garden, you can't keep that piece of soil, at least let the Wang family tea garden be able to raise its eyebrows. In this way, Wang Pinmei said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare, since the big thing has been done, I am thinking about Qianqun in my heart, and I have gone to the peach blossom forest when I hear it, I am also thinking about it, and I will look at it with a thick old face." ”
Old Madam Ye nodded and said, "Since you have that spirit, it's good to go for a walk." It's just that I also ask my in-laws to listen to my long-winded words. ”
Wang Pinmei was puzzled, but Mrs. Wang got up and said: "Since it's nothing to do with me, let's leave first, sister talk slowly, sister has some newly made clothes there, and ask my sister to bring it back to my father." ”
Wang Pinmei was only confused for a while, so she sent her away and continued to talk with Mrs. Ye.
Mrs. Ye took out the marriage book and asked, "Do you still recognize your in-laws?" Wang Pinmei glanced at it and asked with a smile: "This is the marriage letter of Lu'an and Qianqun, isn't it?" ”
Old Madam Ye opened it and said with a smile: "My sister has a good memory, let's look here." ”
Rui Xi took it and handed it over, Wang Pinmei had to look patiently, and when she saw the sudden change in her face behind her, she pushed the tea cup in front of her and scolded: "Lu Liufang, you dare to play with me!" ”
Mrs. Ye said with a smile: "It's not a joke, it's just that my master thought thoroughly and set such rules; As mentioned above, in order to ensure peace between the two families, the two sides cannot encroach on each other's property, oops, so, I really thank my in-laws for their help. ”
Wang Pinmei said fiercely: "Hmph, it turned out that it was calculated from the beginning!" I said how can you Lu Liufang be so generous, it's a big deal, my Wang family doesn't care about your! ”
Mrs. Ye covered her mouth and smiled: "The in-laws really make me have a stomachache, you also said it, the black and white documents are available, and the seal of the Wang family is also stamped there, as long as someone asks about this tea garden, I will say that it is the Wang family." ”
Wang Pinmei said: "Why did you go to great lengths to push out the tea garden? ”
Mrs. Ye said with a smile: "Anyway, if my in-laws want to go to my sister's place, let my sister tell you, and I don't want to bother talking anymore." ”
Wang Pinmei was extremely angry, and she wanted to open her mouth to call someone, but she didn't want to have one person around her, so she had to give up.
Mrs. Ye said: "Rui Xi sent her in-laws out." ”
Wang Pinmei went straight to the west courtyard angrily, and when Mrs. Wang saw her coming, she asked mockingly, "Touched your nose and came back?" ”
Wang Pinmei said angrily: "Let me ask you, why did Lu Liufang push the tea garden to the Wang family?" ”
Mrs. Wang sighed and asked rhetorically, "Sister, do you know who gave the land to the tea garden?" ”
Wang Pinmei replied angrily: "Prince Gong's is not, do you still want to show off in front of me?" ”
Mrs. Wang shook her head and said, "Sister should know that the Queen Mother is very scruptuous, and has always wanted to suppress the prince, and now that the prince is seriously ill, it is an opportunity; If something really happens to the prince, then those who are involved with the prince will be investigated. ”
Wang Pinmei snorted coldly: "This Lu Liufang is thoughtful everywhere!" ”
Mrs. Wang's face was pale and she smiled weakly: "Who can fight her?" She killed the Lin family, and the master couldn't help her if he loved the Lin family so much, let alone you and me? ”
Wang Pinmei said: "Investigated? Wouldn't my Wang family be ......?"
Mrs. Wang said: "Sister, don't worry, my father is very familiar with the ministers on the Queen Mother's side, as long as you are accommodating in private, you will be fine." ”
Wang Pinmei scolded: "What a big face, I actually want my father to beg for someone in person, why didn't you stop me at that time?" ”
Mrs. Wang was silent for a moment before she said, "If the Ye family is investigated, won't it endanger me?" I don't care, but Lu Ying has nothing to do with these, and I can't let him be hurt. ”
Wang Pinmei wanted to say something, but Mrs. Wang blocked back, pointed to some folded clothes and said, "Sister take these clothes, go back and ask my father for me." ”
Wang Pinmei asked Qiu Yue to go out of the gate with her clothes, and Ye San said a word of congratulations in the back and closed the door. Wang Pinmei looked up at the word "Ye Mansion", she was angry and helpless, she really underestimated Mrs. Ye.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind, Wang Pinmei couldn't dodge, some dust was blown into her eyes, Qiu Yue was busy rubbing her eyes, and said, "Madam, it's changed, hurry up and get in the car." ”
The group drove away in the carriage and did not mention it again.
Due to the sudden change of wind in the afternoon, Ye Lusheng and the others had to retreat to the guest room, and Shen Yun saw that the peach blossoms fell all over the ground, and said, "It's a pity." ”
Wang Qianqun disagreed, and said: "Flowers bloom and fall, there is a fixed number, what's the pity?" ”
After passing the meal again, the woman's family ate less, and saw that the three brothers of the Ye family were drinking and drinking to their heart's content, so it was difficult to persuade again, so they only let Zhuo Yan, Zhuo Gui, and Zhuo Lan look at it, so they all retreated.
The Ye family brothers drank wine for a while, and Ye Lusheng said: "I haven't been together like this for a long time, and it's all my fault that I can't be a big brother." ”
Ye Lu'an hurriedly said: "Big brother's words are serious, it's just that each has their own life, no wonder big brother." ”
Ye Lusheng hugged the shoulders of the two brothers, laughing and frowning. Unconsciously, the three of them were a little drunk, and Ye Lusheng said: "It's boring to drink like this, is there anything that the host can help with?" ”
After listening to Tong Fu's arrangement, the master had already arranged it, and said with a smile: "Naturally, a few young masters, please come with me." ”
The group went to another two-storey wooden house, and as soon as they pushed open the wooden door, they smelled the smell of fat powder.
Looking closely, there were more than a dozen Kabuki in this room, and Ye Lusheng smiled at the master's house: "I'll just say, where did the wonderful music and fairy music that I heard during the day come from?" ”
The master was busy giving these girls a look, and they were all right, and they tried their best to attract the stupid eyes of the three of them. Among them, there is a person named Ke'er, who has a very wonderful temperament, and Ye Lusheng can't help but favor her more.
Ye Luhuan drank a lot of alcohol, and after a while, he was drunk and fainted, Ye Lusheng and Ye Luan laughed once, and then continued to drink, and the room was sloppy, and it was noisy until the middle of the night.
When I woke up the next day, who would dare to tell the women's families about it? They were all drunk and slept in their guest rooms. Thus, for two nights in a row, all three brothers went to the wooden house to have fun, without going into details.
has been out of the house for four days, Ye San also ordered his subordinates to urge him to return to the house a few times, saying that it was almost May, and he had to prepare for the marriage of the eldest young master.
Ye Lusheng was unhappy, so Ye Lu'an helped delay it for a few more days. Tonight, Ye Lusheng and the three of them went to the wooden house again. Ke'er fed Ye Lusheng wine, and Ye Lusheng smiled bitterly: "It's better for you, don't let me do this or that." ”
Ke'er laughed and danced with her water sleeves, Ye Luhuan had seen foreign songs and dances, and she also stepped forward to make a fool of herself, making everyone laugh, so uncomfortable.
However, Shen Yun was a little unwell this night, and thought that maybe Ye Lusheng would have some pity for the jade, so he was not in a hurry to find a doctor, but only asked the new maid Begonia to find the eldest young master quickly.
Begonia hurriedly went out, no one was seen left and right, only the house was out, and the lights of a wooden house opposite were bright, so he quietly passed.
When I got closer, I heard a burst of beautiful sounds, and then I heard my daughter's coquettish laughter and the man's persuasion to drink.
I don't want to, bumped into a little guy who came over, and the little guy just thought it was a courtesan who came out to breathe, so he had the courage to touch the begonia, and teased: "If the little lady can't stand the pickles in the house and doesn't want to accompany those young masters to drink, why don't you fight against the wild mandarin ducks here?" ”
Haitang was only sixteen or seventeen years old, so frightened that she didn't know what to do, and hurriedly pushed the little guy away, she was already crying urgently, but fortunately, the master's family summoned on the side, and the little guy spat on the past.
Shen Yun rested for a while, she was already better, and when she was looking out, she saw Begonia coming in with tears in her eyes, and she didn't speak, just cried blindly.
Shen Yun asked for a long time, and Begonia sobbed and said before and after. Shen Yun scolded: "It's just for people to touch it, did you lose a piece of meat?" You don't have to be a joke when you say it. ”
Haitang easily suppressed her tears, hung her head to the side, and Shen Yun asked again, "What about the eldest young master?" ”
Haitang hesitated for a moment before telling the wooden house and the little guy what they said, Shen Yun was shocked when she heard this, and said, "The master of this peach blossom forest dares to do such a thing!" Can you see clearly? ”
Haitang nodded and said, "I saw Zhuo Yan and the three of them guarding outside." ”
Shen Yun was about to go out, and thought that it was not easy for him to make Ye Lusheng change his mind, and he rushed forward at this moment, if he didn't succeed in stealing chickens and eating rice, it would be useless. After some hesitation, he said: "Begonia, you go to Shuangniang and ask her to come to the third young grandmother." ”
Wang Qianqun was lying on the couch and couldn't sleep peacefully.
Yulan couldn't figure out her master's temper, so she didn't dare to wait silently. Wang Qianqun listened to the wind and asked, "Where did the third young master go to the Tong clan again?" ”
Yulan shook her head and said that she didn't know, when she heard someone knocking on the door, she thought it was Ye Lu'an who was back, and Wang Qianqun ordered to open the door quickly and get out of bed and get dressed by herself.
A moment later, it was Shen Yun who came in. Wang Qianqun glanced at her and asked with a smile, "What kind of wind blew you here?" ”
Shen Yun sat down by herself and said with a smile: "Where is the wind, just look at the lights in the third young grandmother's house and come and see." ”
Wang Qianqun's face was unhappy, and she said, "What do I have to be lonely? It's you, presumably the eldest young master is still waiting for you, after all, you will serve people in general. ”
Shen Yun ignored the ridicule in her words, and said with a wry smile: "Where do you want me to serve?" There are people who are struggling to go. ”
Wang Qianqun heard it strangely, and saw Tong Shuang follow Haitang in, and smiled for a while: "What's the matter, doesn't my sister have to serve Lu'an?" ”
Tong Shuang gave the two of them a salute before saying, "Haitang came to call me in a hurry just now, I thought something was wrong, so I rushed here." ”
Shen Yun asked, "Sister Shuang, let me ask you, is the third young master there with you?" ”
Tong Shuang looked surprised, looked at Wang Qianqun's room again, and said, "No, I thought I was resting in the guest room again these days." ”
Shen Yun sneered and said, "It's a pity that we are all kept in the dark, we stay alone in the empty room every night, and these men go to the gentle township of hers!" ”
Tong Shuang was deaf when she heard this, and hurriedly persuaded: "Sister Yun's words are so incomprehensible. ”
Shen Yun pulled the two to the window, pointed to the wooden house not far away, and said, "It's all drinking in there." In this way, he told the two of them what Haitang said, and when Wang Qianqun heard it, he heard Tong Shuang's persuasion, and hurriedly went downstairs to the wooden house.
Tong Shuang was afraid that something would happen, so she followed suit. Shen Yun heard the movement downstairs and said with a smile: "Begonia, let's go back to the room to rest." ”
At this time, Ye Lusheng and the others were having a good time with Kabuki, it was "the spring in the garden can't be closed", suddenly Zhuo Yan ran in with a panicked face, and before he could speak, he saw Wang Qianqun coming with a wooden stick with the thickness of two fingers, and without waiting for everyone to react, he was beaten up against Kabuki, only to hear the screams again and again, running around, and after a while, there were only a few of them left in the house.
Ye Lu'an saw his two wives and concubines, his face was a little embarrassed, but he shouted: "What are you crazy about?" ”
Wang Qianqun threw the wooden stick, and saw that the three of them were not in good clothes, and scolded: "I'll come to see how you guys throw the face of the ancestors!" Look at me and tell the old lady and see what you have to say. ”
The three of them were flustered, and Ye Lusheng said with a smile: "Qian Qun is really making a big fuss, we just let these girls drink with them." ”
Wang Qianqun ignored it and only said: "I don't know what the reason is, you go to the old lady and tell it." ”
Tong Shuang stepped forward and persuaded: "Speaking of which, it's all the master's fault, everyone brought everyone in to make a mess." ”
Ye Lusheng was busy saying yes, where did this master dare to defend, he only knelt on the ground and kowtowed to admit his mistakes, Tong Shuang helped Wang Qianqun to sit down, persuaded her to dissipate her anger, and said to Ye Lusheng: "First of all, big brother, as a brother, you are not a good example to lead them to make mistakes; Speaking of Lu'an, I know you've always been worried about business, and it's good to relax now, but this time it's really too much; And Lu Huan, although you are young, you are a scholar, why don't you persuade your brother? Now it depends on whether my sister can spare you once in large quantities. ”
The three of them were silent, and Tong Shuang said again: "Zhuo Gui, Zhuo Lan, take the eldest young master and the fourth young master back to rest." ”
When there were only three of them left in the room, Tong Shuang turned around and left: "Lu'an, you accompany your sister well, don't let your sister be angry anymore." ”
How could Ye Lu'an not understand Tong Shuang's meaning, he had to seal Wang Qianqun's mouth at the moment, so as to hide from Mrs. Ye, so that it would not have an impact on his inheritance of merchant ships, so he persuaded him with good words and was extremely gentle.
Tong Shuang didn't go back to the room, came to find Tong Fu, and asked about Kabuki as soon as they met, and heard Tong Fu say that it was his idea, and complained: "Daddy is so confused!" ”
Tong Fu listened to the process and said frightenedly: "What should I do now?" ”
Tong Shuang thought for a while and said, "Daddy, don't admit that you found these kabuki; Second, we are afraid that we will return home tomorrow, you must come to see each other off as soon as possible, and don't show your feet. ”
After another explanation, Tong Shuang walked back, and suddenly the rainstorm poured, Tong Shuang passed through the peach blossom forest, and a large piece of peach petals with water was stained on his body. Lizhu was startled, and hurriedly prepared hot water for Tong Shuang to bathe and ward off the cold. Lizhu was waiting by the bathtub, Tong Shuang thought of Ye Lu'an's panicked face in the wooden house at that time, his heart hurt slightly, and he said slowly: "It's changed." ”
Sure enough, Wang Qianqun's side was done, Shen Yun was soft-tempered, Ye Lusheng didn't dare to say anything more after saying a few words, but because of Wang Qianqun's request, he had to leave and return home in a hurry in the morning, Tong Fu only pretended that he didn't know why, and just kept a few polite words.
Tong Shuang was silent and thoughtful along the way.
