Chapter 119: Chaos
Gu Wan and the women of the Mu family hooked up online, and in addition to Chen Wenrou on weekdays, they had another place to have a pastime. //..
Banniang is also closer to Gu Wan, every day after class, she likes to mix with Gu Wan, occasionally invites Gu Wan to her home to visit her beautiful big huā garden, and often goes to Gu's house, nesting on Gu Wan's very special and very bright balcony to chat.
The men of the Mu family are all on the battlefield, and the family is full of women, which also causes the daughters-in-law and daughters of the Mu family to be a little more fierce and less delicate and graceful than those in other families.
Banniang, as the most favored youngest daughter of the Mu family, naturally has the same temperament, in front of outsiders, she will pretend to be shy and shy, but after getting acquainted, she has a lively personality that makes people unable to resist.
Gu Wan doesn't hate girls with a straightforward temperament, and she is also willing to play with Banniang.
The two have a close relationship, even the eldest lady Liu is jealous, and occasionally corresponds with her husband - "Banniang is Wanniang now, what Wanniang makes the best dim sum, Wanniang is good at housekeeping, and Wanniang's arithmetic skills are not even comparable to Seventh Brother...... In short, in your eighth sister's heart, the little ladies of the Gu family have become immortals. ”
Mu Yanxu directly threw the letter to his precious brother to read, and after Mu Yanzhao read it, he smiled and was proud, which made Mu Yanxu worry - his seventh brother will become a relative in the future, and he can't say that he is also afraid of his wife like a tiger! ”
The autumn wind blows on the body, which is not as soft as the spring breeze, and the scenery outside also looks much bleaker.
It has been more than half a year since Mu Yanzhao left Yazhou, and the peace knots woven by Gu Wan herself are hung all over the wall, and there are strings of glass wind chimes on the balcony. Swaying in the wind, it makes a crisp and pleasant sound from time to time.
Now is the period of national filial piety, even if the people of Yazhou do not care about the emperor of the Feng Dynasty, filial piety still has to be kept. A lot of entertainment is not going well. In addition, there is a war now, and the adults are not in the mood to have fun.
The children are simple-minded, and they don't have many worries to consider, and they can't bear to bear the boring days of a few months. Mu family Baniang Rulan has been running very diligently to the Gu family these days. After reading at Lord Chen's place today, he directly pestered Gu Wan and went home together.
The little girl has boredom written in her left eye and bored in her right eye. The whole person was lazy, lying on the chaise longue, first holding her red horsewhip, and casually stirring the tails of two small snow-white balls. Forrest Gump made the two puppies run around the house, jumping up and down, and dog hair flying everywhere.
Baoqin took advantage of Rulan's unpreparedness, one in one hand, and threw two puppies into the huā garden to let them go crazy, so she picked up a travelogue that had been thrown on the ground and respectfully handed it to Banniang.
Banniang blinked, read a few books, and reached for the long wind chimes on the balcony, and again and again, the glass pendant strung with colored threads swayed and became entangled after a while.
Gu Wan couldn't cry or laugh, waved her hand to let Baosheng rescue the innocent little wind chime, and said with a smile: "Banniang, if you are bored, how about I accompany you to play chess?" ”
"I got down at the master's place all morning in the morning, and I was about to throw up."
Mu Rulan frowned, a slightly rounded face was bulging, she liked the life of fresh clothes and angry horses, riding horses and hunting, but now the family is busy, and she is not allowed to go out to play alone, besides, it is also suitable for a high-profile outing.
Gu Wan thought for a while, clapped her hands, and said with a smile: "I'll teach you a little game, I promise you like it." ”
"What is it?" Banniang still couldn't lift her energy, "Could it be that let's play dice?" Playing the leaf card? It's too much fun, and there's not much to do. ”
Gu Wan couldn't cry or laugh, there are really not many games that girls can play in this era, and playing leaf cards is the best way to entertain.
"It's also a game of chess, but it's not as complicated as Go, and it's quite fun."
The game that Gu Wan took out was checkers, the rules were simple, easy to play, and suitable for all ages.
When she first took it out, Chen Wenrou liked it very much, and often played a game with Gu Wan, it was easy for people with high IQ to do anything, playing Go, Gu Wan has honed so far, and she can win two games out of ten games, and it has to be Lord Chen to release the water a little and play checkers, which is still more than you lose and win less.
The chessboard is made of willow wood, it only took less than half a cup of tea to make it, it is made of sandalwood, it is very heavy, the four corners are inlaid with gold leaf, and the huā pattern of the four seasons is carved, which is very exquisite.
At first, Gu Wan wanted to use glass to make the chess pieces, but the craftsmen were not skilled enough, and the ones were not good-looking and irregular.
Later, Gu Wan simply let people burn out a bunch of porcelain, colorful, exquisite style, some of them were burned into the zodiac, and there were also burned out of auspicious words, there were a lot of huā, Chen Wenrou saw it, and actually made a set of very precious gemstone chess pieces, including white jade, jade, ruby, sapphire, emerald gemstones, opal, obsidian, all kinds of chess pieces made of precious or ordinary gemstones, seeing Gu Wan's brain, such chess pieces in his hand, no one would be in the mood to play chess.
However, Lord Chen made these chess pieces, and it didn't seem that they were used to play chess, they were simply carved to collect, and he also made a set, saying that it was for Gu Wan to collect, and when she got married, it was added to the dowry.
Of course, at this time, Gu Wan took out ordinary ceramic products, although they were also very exquisite, and in her hand, every chess piece was very cute, but it would not affect the interest in playing chess.
Checkers is really a kill for all ages, or rather, there are too few entertainment activities in this era, and a casual whole thing can attract a little girl to sit quietly for a while.
Banniang pulled Gu Wan to play chess with her for an afternoon, until the end of the day, then reluctantly left, before leaving, Gu Wan took a set of chess pieces, as for the chessboard, Gu Wan had only one in her hand, Banniang had to go back and make it herself.
The life of Gu Wan's group of women in Yazhou is somewhat dull, but there is turmoil outside. There are almost as many good news as bad news, and after more than half a year, the situation in Dingzhou was stable, and the Zhou family and the Zheng family joined forces to exterminate the king of Qi, and then turned to attack Dayong. The prince of the Feng Dynasty fled west to Los Angeles and ordered Hou Shuibo of Le'an to stay behind.
Shui Bo showed a decisive side for the first time, fought bravely, took the lead, repaired the city gate and the fort in Dayong, and finally controlled the last nearly 300,000 forbidden troops in his hands, lined up in the south of the city, met the coalition army of the Zhou and Zheng families, quickly notified the counties, and summoned the trustworthy local army to enter Beijing to quell the rebellion.
The Zhou family and the Zheng family are united, but there are also internal disputes, although the siege of Dayong, but the situation is not good, Shui Bo does not know what method to use, so that the Zhou family and the Zheng family are increasingly suspicious, the coalition forces are guarding against each other, several battles, less wins and more defeats, actually let Le'an Hou Shuibo gradually gain a firm foothold, and also sent people to Los Angeles to welcome the prince back to Beijing.
It's just that the prince is sick and stays in Los Angeles for the time being.
The Mu family is not having a good time, although the Zhou family is now mainly guarding against the Zheng family, but if the Zhou family wants to expand its power, it will inevitably invade the Mu family's sphere of influence, besides, both families have ambitions, and there will be a war.
It can be said that in the past half a year, the rule of the Feng Dynasty has completely collapsed, and there are people everywhere who have set themselves up as kings, and the Zhou family and the Zheng family have conquered the city and grabbed territory.
The Mu family is the same.
Although most of the Mu family's army gathered in Dingzhou to guard against the barbarian invasion, Mu Fang, the Duke of Dingguo, still led his army north, Lianke County, and the pace was not too fast, at least compared with the speed of the Zhou family and the Zheng family, it was slightly slower.
But the Mu army's discipline was strict, and the places it passed were very different from those so-called rebels, or the armies of other princes, at least in terms of being popular with the people... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
