008. Calculation

Hu Qing also looked at Yinxiang fixedly, although the corners of his lips were also smiling shallowly, but he couldn't laugh in his heart.

Thirteenth brother, if you knew whose poem this was, would you still laugh? It's not time to tell you the truth, so I'm sorry, so you'll be confused for a few more days.

"Whose poems do you like? It can't be Nalan Rongruo, right? Yinxiang asked again, this song "Waves and Sands" has some Rongruo flavor.

"I don't have a specific person I like, but I like the sentence of Queen Li's 'I don't know that I am a guest in my dream, and I am greedy for joy for a while'.

"Why?" Yinxiang looked at Hu Qing a little strangely.

Hu Qing sighed in a low voice, smiled, and said softly: "Because we are all passers-by in this red dust." After a pause, he felt that his mood was too low, glanced at Yinxiang and continued: "Rong Ruo's poems are too beautiful and too sad, and his life is too bitter and sad. However, his wife Lu is really happy, her talent is not comparable to Rong Ruo, but she has been loved by Rong Ruo for a lifetime, I think she has nothing to complain about in this life, but it's a pity that Shen Wan, the love of a generation of talented women ended in tragedy, which is really regrettable. 'Melancholy and bleak autumn twilight day, after the depression parting, it has been a year. The old song of the black silk is pitiful. The dream soul flies to the homeland and can't go forward. Infinite resentment and resentment, the head teacher has a lot of blood and tears, and it is in vain. Branches are connected without causes. Peek into the sky and the moon alone, a few rounds. 'Whether it's Rong Ruo or Shen Wan, these people who value love very much, even more than life, are all a pain in my heart. Can you understand the feeling? Thirteen elder brothers? ”

It always hurts to think about the people who love themselves, the people they love, the people they like, and the people they admire when they leave.

"I understand that everyone has pain in their hearts, and they can't touch it. I can't imagine that you are so compassionate at such a young age, Qing'er, do you have something on your mind? Yinxiang understands Qing'er's feelings, how can he not be like this, Eniang has passed away for two or three years, and it is still painful every time he thinks about it. He just wondered how Qing'er could be so sentimental at such a young age, and the thick pain in Qing'er's eyes that couldn't be dissolved made him feel a little distressed.

"No, it's just a little sentimental." A faint smile spread on the corner of Hu Qing's lips, looking at Yinxiang. Yinxiang's look of understanding made Hu Qing very relieved.

Thank you for understanding, Brother Thirteen.

"After dinner, let's go out and see how the government distributes the food?" Thirteen changed the topic, Qing'er was so sentimental! Twelve years old! He should be happier and more satisfied.

"Okay!" Hu Qing laughed out loud.

"Let's eat!" Yinxiang said softly to Hu Qing, and then picked up the rice bowl.

Hu Qing smiled at Yinxiang, who was immersed in eating, and asked softly in his heart: "Thirteenth elder brother, if you know what I am hiding from you, will you blame me?" ”

The disaster relief, under the supervision of Yinxiang and Hu Qing, was successfully and unexpectedly completed.

Yinxiang was very moved by Qing'er's ability to help the people get out of trouble, he thought that Qing'er was young and had always lived a rich life, so he should not think about it for others, but after this time, he saw that Qing'er was not only very sympathetic, but also cautious in doing things, and couldn't help but love Hu Qing very much. At the same time, Yinxiang also sensed Qing'er's friendly attitude towards him, and he attributed it to Rong Yu's relationship.

The two appreciate and love each other in a very harmonious cooperation, and the relationship is getting closer and closer. Half a month later, Yinxiang returned to the capital first, and for other things, Hu Qing wanted to stay in Henan for a few more days.

Beijing, the study of the Nine Elder Brothers' Mansion.

Yinyu was enjoying a purple clay pot of begonia and red pine produced in Yixing, and the housekeeper Qin Daoran walked in, glanced at Yinyu and Yinyu, and then said respectfully: "Eighth master!" Nine masters! The message is back. ”

Yin Yu didn't even raise his head, and said unhurriedly: "Say it." ”

Qin Daoran was Yinyu's attendant when he was young, and after Yinyu divided the mansion, he promoted him to be a housekeeper and was in charge of the affairs of the mansion.

Qin Daoran said: "This time, it was Sibeile who found the young master of the Hu family, and the young master Hu bought all the grain at a high price in Kaifeng. According to sources, there were more than 300,000 stone of grain in the Hu family's granary at that time. ”

When Yinyu heard this, he raised his head in confusion and asked, "Why did he buy me when he had food?" ”

Qin Daoran knew Yinyu's temperament, and lowered his head without speaking. What Brother Jiu doesn't understand, even if he understands it, he won't say it, not to mention that he can't say it, and he shouldn't say it.

Yinyu and Yinyu's eyes met in the air, and the two of them were just as inexplicable.

"This Hu Qing, what's wrong with him playing master and being addicted? I didn't give face to my father in front of my brothers last time, and this time I used money to smash my master, and I was not small! Yin Yu waved his hand vigorously, the treasure that was still playing in his hand a moment ago was shattered at this moment, Qin Daoran looked at the remains of the purple clay pot, and showed a distressed look on his face.

Brother Jiu's temper really said that he would have a seizure.

"Lao Jiu!" Yinyu shouted to Yinyu, and then turned to Qin Daoran and said, "You go down." ”

On Yinzhen's white jade-like face, his eyes are as deep and distant as Yinzhen, but there is always a smile in his eyes, which makes people warm. Yinzhen's gaze made people cold.

He understands Yinyu's thoughts: the people who help the fourth brother can't help them anymore.

If the Hu family is interested in them, then Hu Qing would not have refuted the ninth brother's face in front of the elder brothers last time. This time, the fourth brother asked the Hu family for help, and with the strength of the Hu family, there was no reason why he couldn't find out that the grain on the market in Henan was the ninth brother's, so how could he buy the ninth brother's grain at a high price and let the ninth brother profit from it? Hu Qing's approach is really puzzling.

Yinxi stretched out his hand to push open the window, and the crisp air immediately rushed into the warm study. A crescent moon in the sky was half-hidden in the clouds, reflecting the indistinct starlight in the distance, and the surroundings were hazy.

This vague scene is just like their current situation, flickering and dark, making it difficult for people to see through and see clearly, and Yinxi closed the window again with some annoyance.

Yin Yu frowned and asked, "Starling, this kid is the fourth brother's person?" Why is he still paying a high price for my food? ”

Yin Yu shook his head, and then said slowly: "This can only show that he is not the fourth brother's person yet." Then he asked, "Do you still blame him?" ”

Yinyu grinned, a little embarrassed. "No one really dares to say that about me, I don't know where he is so angry with me."

"Where is the fire? It's just that your words collide, and besides, you provoked him first, so you don't hold grudges against him anymore. This Hu Qing is young, but his actions are not simple! "Comparing others with the Ninth Brother, the Ninth Brother is probably harsh when it sounds.

Unexpectedly, Yin Yu not only didn't think he was angry, but said with some appreciation: "I thought he was born in a rich family, but he was just a gentleman, and all his reputation was just money, but now it seems that he is indeed a little famous." I'm getting more and more curious about him! ”

Judging from this matter, it seems that he does not intend to be attached to the fourth brother yet, if we make friends with him before the fourth brother, it will be of great help to us. He was already on his way back to Beijing, and he and his thirteenth brother had been together in Henan for many days, and I didn't know what their relationship was. ”

"Thirteen and Rong Yu have always been good, this Hu Qing seems to be very suitable for the temperament of the thirteenth brother, we have to start quickly. When he comes back from Henan, I will personally post to invite him. Yinyu was a little anxious, he had a good impression of Hu Qing, so he was even more anxious to fight for it.

"It's useless to post next, he won't come, in the past six months or so, have you ever seen whose appointment he has made? It's better to find a chance to get close to him and socialize with him as much as possible, but don't worry, he is still young after all, and he always has preferences, so he inquires slowly. It's a pity that we can't take the people of the Hu family, and we know too little about him. Yinxi's words were filled with regret.

Yin Yufeng's eyes lit up slightly, and he tapped the table with his fingers and said word by word: "Then give him a few people." ”

Yin Yu frowned lightly: "Hu family! Is that easy to get into? I don't know how many bright and dark guards Hu Zhongzheng is laying by his side, but I'm afraid that our people won't be close to him, so they won't be there! He shook his head as he spoke, this plan was not feasible.

Yin Yu grinned and raised his eyebrows, with a hint of humor: "It depends on who it is, he is a man after all." ”

"What do you want to ......" Yinxi paused and didn't continue, thought for a while and continued, "Let's give it a try, but don't get your hopes up." Hu Zhongzheng had a hard time, he was Hu Zhongzheng's lifeblood. ”

Yin Yu said indifferently: "Wait until I find someone to take the test." ”

"Hmm." Yinxi also responded inadvertently.

***

There is an ancient temple named Xiuyun in the southwest of the capital, because the temple is planted with Tan trees, the people also call it Tan Zhe Temple.

In an ordinary meditation room in Xiuyun Temple, Hu Qing sat at a table near the window and pondered.

He hurried back to the capital after finishing an errand in Henan, and only came to the temple early this morning.

Since coming to Beijing, every time his grandmother's birthday and death day, Eniang's birthday and death day, Hu Qing has to stay here for two days.

Today is his birthday and Eniang's death day.

At this time, Hu Qing's mind came up with the mother who was buried in the red brocade quilt and had no life but smiled at the corner of her lips, and her grandmother who worked hard for her own growth.

Scenes of the past emerge from the bottom of my heart, and every scene is painful and sour, but also sweet and happy. This feeling of pain and happiness accompanied her for twelve years.

Because he loves them, he loses them, his heart hurts, and because he is loved by them, he still feels happy even if they are not there.

The Buddhist scriptures say: A thought is quiet, and the lotus flowers bloom everywhere. A flower is a pure land, and a soil is the same.

Hu Qing knelt down in the heart Buddha and begged: I will be Eniang's child in the next life, and I and Eniang must live healthily and happily, so that I can honor Eniang and let Eniang watch herself grow up**.

Spread out the rice paper, dip the ink and paint the images that linger in my heart, those pasts, and those marks in life.

Feng pushed open the door of the meditation room and walked in, stood at the table, and said to Hu Qing, who was painting freely, "Young master, the old man, please go back early." ”

Hu Qing looked up at him, revealing doubts: "Grandpa? Something? "In the past, my grandfather never disturbed me, nor did he ask myself to go back earlier.

Feng replied respectfully: "The old man said that it was a message from Young Master Rong Yu: Today, the ninth elder brother, the tenth elder brother, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother are coming to Hu Mansion to celebrate the young master's birthday. ”

Hu Qing let out a long sigh, his birthday is E-Niang's death day, it is not worth celebrating at all, if it weren't for himself, E-Niang would probably be alive and happy now.

I never celebrate birthdays, it's a family know, but my brothers don't know. This day of the year is only memorals and sentimentality for me, and these brothers who are in the center of power and desire do not know the truth of the matter, nor are they willing to imagine for others.

They don't know how to let go, or maybe they don't want to let go at all, all they want is to grab more people and follow them to sink and fall.

Looking at the portraits of his grandmother and his mother, Hu Qing said helplessly: "Go back!" ”
