Chapter VII
When Chu Lianwei threw a guqin at my feet, I was painting a picture.
Since I have no clue, I can only draw while thinking, and I can draw whatever I want, I want to draw Ju'er, I also want to draw Daddy, and I want to draw Shuang'er, I'm afraid that after a long time, I will forget what they look like.
It's obviously very serious, but if you look closely, it's nothing, like a ghost drawing. And I am a person who pursues perfection, and if I don't draw well, I must redraw, so that the drawing paper is scattered all over the place.
I was still holding the pen and drawing on the paper, because I was waiting, waiting for Bai Xiaoqiu to come, I wanted to see what kind of fame these two people were going to make in me today.
As I expected, after a while, Bai Xiaoqiu's fart came, grabbed Chu Lianwei and dragged her to the door, "Weiwei, if you have something to say, let's go, come back with me."
Hehe, it turned out that the two of them had a quarrel and ran to me to find the gas bag.
Chu Lianwei lay on the ground crookedly, whimpering and crying, Bai Xiaoqiu pulled her and she didn't get up, crying while pointing to the guqin on the ground and said, "Bai Xiaoqiu, you have to tell me clearly today, you have been reluctant to throw away this guqin, is it because of her."
I can hear it, this is what she is referring to me, but does this have anything to do with me?
It's not enough to cry, and I stepped on the piano with my feet, and a good piano was ruined by her like this, I really couldn't see it, so I could only come over and persuade her, "Young lady, if you have anything to say, you can discuss it with the twelve young people."
It's okay if I don't persuade you, this persuasion Chu Lianwei pointed all the fingers at me, and she pointed at me angrily, "Mr. Su, how are you like a ghost, you are everywhere you go, I know that you are very remarkable, but you can't make me ugly in front of a lot of people, and sing and harmonize with my husband under my nose."
I quickly recalled the origin of what she said, if I guessed correctly, this incident happened a month ago, it happened to be the sixth day of June, and it was on that day that my ju'er was gone.
On the sixth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, also known as the "Insect Festival", there is a folk proverb of "June 6, drying silk". It is said that as long as the clothes, cotton wool, skin, and fur dried on this day do not grow insects for a year. There is also the saying of "turning the scriptures" and "drying the robe". There is also another saying called "June 6, please aunt." This means that on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, every family will take the old and young girls who have been married home and entertain them well.
In our Jizhou, there is a very real saying called "Go home mother, don't want to eat, don't want to drink, just want to go home and rest".
I don't know what's going on here, but I've heard it from my father's generation.
The dignified Bai Mansion couldn't miss such a rare good day, Bai Zhanqi's inner room, Mrs. Mu, sent a letter early, brought back a few daughters who got married, and ordered the stove room to make a lot of delicious food, and the family gathered together to be lively.
The candlelight was staggered, and Emperor Jin came in with the Queen Mother when he pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and a room of people hurriedly knelt down to pick up the car.
Emperor Jin smiled and said, "I don't want to stir up the army, and even the soldiers guarding the gate are not allowed to report, today I made a special trip with the Queen Mother to eat."
That Bai Zhanqi hurriedly said, "Don't dare, don't dare."
The Empress Dowager Bai is the sister of General Bai, that is, the aunt of Bai Xiaoqiu's generation. She was not Emperor Jin's biological mother.
It is rumored that Emperor Jin's biological mother, Concubine Qing, was thrown into prison for committing a capital crime, and when she was about to be executed, it was the Queen Mother who rushed to the execution ground in time to intercede and save Concubine Qing, so that she was able to save her life. After the death of the emperor of the previous dynasty, Concubine Qing was automatically willing to guard his soul.
At that time, Emperor Jin was still young, and he was still an elder brother, because the queen mother had no children under his knees, so he passed the little elder brother under his own name, took care of it carefully, and regarded it as his own.
Emperor Jin is also grateful to the Queen Mother, and is very respectful and filial.
Although the queen mother is now in her old age, she has a clear mind, looks at all directions, eats well, and especially likes people to visit her, the more the better, as long as she sees someone coming, she will come to say, you have come to see me, this dare is good, hehe.
Mrs. Mu ordered someone to set up a large banquet table in the center of the hall again, facing north and south, and the Jin Emperor and the Queen Mother sat side by side. Bai Zhanqi and Mrs. Mu were seated in front of them, and the rest of the people were also seated one by one.
Because Emperor Jin was sitting high on the top, everyone also seemed more restrained, bowing their heads and silently eating the rice in the bowl, not even daring to raise their heads, let alone pick up the vegetables.
I rolled my eyelids slightly, and saw the famous wine and delicacies, fresh seafood, vegetables and fruits, and the aroma was pleasant. Thinking that he was not going to waste it, he was about to take advantage of someone to eat it by inattention, when he saw Mrs. Mu wink at Mama Xiao on the side.
Mama Xiao slapped her hands with a sense of understanding, and saw a group of young girls coming, pink and embroidered brocade, neon clothes and yarn dancing lightly, and the sound of the flute was light and in her ears, and the folding fan in her hand was like a wonderful pen like a flying swallow.
The Queen Mother squinted her eyes and occasionally said, "Good-looking, really good-looking, reward".
Bai Zhanqi and Mrs. Mu hurriedly knelt down and "thanked the Empress Dowager for her reward".
Emperor Jin noticed the strangeness of the atmosphere, raised his hand and said, "Today is a family banquet, you don't have to be restrained, avoid those unnecessary etiquette, just move chopsticks."
With the approval of Emperor Jin, everyone raised the chopsticks in their hands and ate them.
After about two pillars of incense, everyone had almost eaten, and Mrs. Mu ordered someone to withdraw the meal, put on the pastries, fruits, and brewed Longjing and wolfberry chrysanthemum tea. Everyone enjoyed singing and dancing while drinking tea.
After dancing a few songs in a row, Bai Zhanqi's concubine Zhao Yinlan stood up from the chair and said with a smile, "Although this song and dance is grand and beautiful, it inevitably looks a little dull.
Mrs. Mu on the side didn't look good, and glanced at Zhao Yinlan.
Bai Zhanqi took over the conversation, "Since you said so, do you have any ideas?"
Zhao Yinlan was very proud, "I happened to have an interesting fun a few days ago, and today I specially shared it with you."
Listening to Zhao Yinlan's tone, it seems that she came prepared, so that everyone knows her existence. She is arrogant and domineering, and no one treats him on weekdays, so she can only be cheeky and work hard to please Bai Zhanqi.
It turned out to be a game of lots, and in my opinion, there is nothing new at all, and it is all rotten. After playing for a while, I didn't feel interested, so I drank tea alone.
The fourth lady, Bai Qingrui, didn't know when she noticed me, and called me, "This should be the legendary chivalrous girl, Su Feifei, Mr. Su."
I smiled at her in response, "Miss Fourth said that I am not a chivalrous girl."
To say that this Bai Qingrui also came back from her grandfather's house today, I don't know how she would know about this matter.
