Chapter 205 and then to Feng County
After a lively Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the family did not say anything all night. The next day, Tiangang Meng Youran, Qin Xianran, Qin Siran, Mu Yan, Mu Cen, and Mu Lan each took their maidservants and entourage, and stepped on the carriage to Feng County.
The group traveled for a day, and when the sky was full of sunset, they arrived at the gate of Honghu Academy.
"Is it the young master and Miss Youran who are here?" The one who greeted them out was still the old man they saw when they came last time, and at this time he stepped down the steps with a smile on his face and greeted them, "Miss Young Master can come, the old man and the old lady may be so happy to see it!" ”
Qin Yanran smiled mildly and nodded at him: "Comber." ”
"How is Comber doing?" After getting out of the carriage leisurely, he greeted the old man who greeted him.
"Hehe, okay, Miss Youran is worried." Comber happily responded.
"That's good." Leisurely smiled slightly, "Comber, find a few family members to come and move things!" ”
"Alas, the old slave is going now, and he has to inform the old lady and the old lady! Young masters, please come in too! As he spoke, Comber led the way, leading Youran and the others into the gate of the academy.
On the way to the remote area, he came across a few servants who were cleaning the front yard, and Comber told one of them to take a few quick steps to inform the old lady, while the rest went to the door to carry things; And Comber himself continued to lead the way for them.
Qin Siran and Mu Lan had never seen the academy because they were girls, and they looked around along the way, their eyes were full of curiosity.
"Wow - that's what the academy looks like? It's amazing! Qin Siran sighed.
After listening to her words, her head was full of black lines. Magical? Is that how the word is used?
Mu Lan covered her mouth and smiled, but she had always been gentle and demure and would not say any striking words, "This academy is quite large-scale, and it seems that the prestige of the fifth grandfather in Feng County is not small." ”
"Not only is it prestige in Feng County, the reputation of the fifth grandfather has already spread throughout the entire Southern Imperial Mansion. In the minds of those scholars, they were all proud to be Qin Yuhang's disciples. He said to them with a leisurely smile.
She vaguely remembered that when she first came to Feng County, Shang Moqi looked excited when she learned that their fifth grandfather was Qin Yuhang and Old Master Qin.
"Indeed, the fifth grandfather is indeed a very famous master." Mu Yan, who was walking in front, nodded and said after listening to what he said leisurely, "He is the pride of our juniors." ”
The rest of the people nodded in agreement.
Just as a few people were chatting happily, a very generous and elegant lady appeared in front of them. I saw that she instinctively paused, looked left and right, and when she saw a few of them, she quickened her pace and walked towards them.
"Big lady." Comber bowed as the woman approached.
Then Qin Yan took a step forward and saluted politely: "Auntie." ”
"Auntie." Leisurely also saluted with the group, and the rest of the people saw this and followed along.
"Hehe, hurry up, hurry up." The eldest lady Meng Shi smiled and asked them to get up, "I just heard the report from the little maid that you are here." No, the old lady couldn't help it, and immediately asked me to come out to meet you. ”
After speaking, he turned to Comber and ordered, "Comber, just leave it to me here." You go to the kitchen first, get a few more dishes for dinner, and then prepare a few rooms. ”
"Yes, ma'am." After Comber saluted, he went to do the things that Meng had ordered.
A few people followed Meng Shi and continued to walk forward, and on the way, Youran also asked her about some of the recent situation of her little brother. After talking and laughing, they came to the door of the main hall after walking for a short time.
Meng Shi took the lead in entering, and said to an old couple sitting on the soft couch with a smile as he walked: "Dad, mother, they are here. ”
Qin Yanran, Mu Yan, Mu Cen, Youran, Mu Lan, and Qin Siran lined up in turn, and knelt down to kowtow to the two old people on the seat: "Grandson (granddaughter) has seen the fifth grandfather (grandfather) ......"
"Hehe, okay, let's get up quickly!" The fifth grandfather smiled and touched his beard and said to them.
"It's just, hurry up, it's weirdly cold on the ground." The fifth grandmother also said urgently, "You too, how can you make such a big gift!" Hehe, okay, get up and let the old lady take a good look, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you. ”
"Yes." Leisurely waited for the voice to answer in unison, and then they all stood up, motionless and let the old lady look at it.
The fifth grandmother looked at them seriously with a kind smile on her face. When he saw Qin Haoran, who was standing first, his smile deepened a little: "Yan'er has really grown up, and she is becoming more and more elegant with your father." ”
"Grandma Xie Wu's praise." Qin Yanran saluted with a smile.
The fifth grandmother smiled and continued to look towards the next one; When he saw Mu Yan and Mu Cen who were born in the eyes, he asked kindly: "Whose kid is this?" Forgive my wife for not seeing it. ”
Mu Yan took a step forward, bowed, and replied, "Fifth grandfather, fifth grandmother, my mother is Qin Huaixi." This year, our family celebrated the New Year at my uncle's house, and just in time for this opportunity, my mother asked me to bring my younger brother and sister to follow my cousin to come and greet your second elder. With that, Mu Cen and Mu Lan also stepped forward and saluted respectfully.
"Oh? It's the girl who cherishes the girl's family! I didn't expect it to be so big. The fifth grandfather replied with a smile.
"Are you mother alright? Why didn't I come with you this time? "Because of Qin Enran, the old lady knows some things about the Mu family's mother and son; So now seeing these three children, the old man couldn't help but ask with some concern.
"Grandma Lao Wu is worried, my mother is fine now. There are uncles and aunts here, and my mother is doing well. I couldn't come together this time because the Chinese New Year is approaching, and my mother helped my aunt prepare for the New Year! Mu Yan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
When the fifth grandmother heard this, she was relieved, and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good." ”
After speaking, he turned his gaze to Sister Youran: "You'er is really getting more and more beautiful, look at this Qiongzi Yuexiang, she is really a little beauty!" Also, who is that little girl next to you? ”
You Ran was praised by the old lady like this, her face was slightly flushed, and she said coquettishly: "The fifth grandmother is used to making fun of You'er, how can I be as good as the fifth grandmother said?" Fifth grandma, don't be kidding me. Speaking of which, he pulled Qin Siran, who was standing beside her, and introduced, "This is Si'er, the third child of my family." ”
"Oh--the girl who is twins with En'er?" The fifth grandfather suddenly asked.
Qin Siran smiled, blessed slightly, and replied, "Yes, Fifth Grandfather." ”
"Hehe, good! It seems that she is also a clever little girl. The fifth grandfather nodded with satisfaction.
The two old men looked at a few children, and the more they looked at it, the more satisfied they became, and the more they looked at it, the more they liked it, and then the two of them looked at each other and nodded fondly.
In the following time, the others met the other members of the fifth grandfather's family. After talking for a while, it was time for dinner, and then they walked towards the dining room lively.
Qin Enran strode into the dining room with a few cousins, and suddenly saw this big table of people, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, "Big brother? Sister? How did you guys get here? ”
When they saw the little brother's stunned expression, they all looked at him with a smile, waiting for him to recover from the shock.
Qin Siran didn't care whether Qin Enran came back to his senses or not, the moment he saw him, he pounced on him like a flower butterfly meeting a flower. hugged him and shouted with a crying voice in joy: "En'er......"
"Si'er." Qin Enran reflexively hugged his twin sister, and when he heard her call full of longing, he couldn't help but moisten his eyes slightly.
They have never been separated for so long since they were born, and it is all false to say that they don't miss them. He couldn't help but miss her, he also missed his mother, his father, his brother and his eldest sister. However, he knew the measure, knew that he had grown up, and he couldn't cling to them like he did when he was a child. He has his own responsibilities and dreams, and for these reasons, he must learn to be independent and self-reliant.
"Hehe, okay, you two have to see the time to catch up! There's a whole family waiting for the two of you to sit down for dinner! Seeing that it was almost time, he reminded him loudly.
Anyway, this is not their own home, and they can't be allowed to follow their own hearts too much.
Qin Siran let go of his hands holding his brother, smiled embarrassedly, and said to everyone: "I'm sorry, I'm so excited, I'm really embarrassed." ”
Qin Enran's cheeks were red, and he took Si Ran's hand and walked to their place on the dining table and sat down, "Let the fifth grandfather, the fifth grandmother and all the elders laugh." ”
Everyone said with smiles on their faces that it was okay, and they could understand the feelings of the two of them.
When everyone was seated, the butler Comber ordered his subordinates to start serving. This time, they brought many gifts for many years, not only fresh fruits, drinks, food, but also some seafood and seafood that are not available here.
"Huh? Is this the legendary crab? The eldest lord Qin Huaixiu saw the large plate of crabs in the center of the table and asked.
"Yes." Qin Yanran nodded and responded, "This time the resort has sent a lot of fresh seafood, You'er said that Fengxian is far away from the sea, and it is not easy to see these; So I processed them a little and brought them over to the five grandfathers, five grandmothers and the elders to try them. ”
"Hehe, you have a heart." The fifth grandmother said with a bright smile.
"Fifth grandma, where is this, we should do these things. Come on, let's try it for all the big guys! See if it's delicious? "These crabs have been specially treated by her, and they are still alive after they arrive here; When cooking, it is also the cooking secret taught by the two people of Wanyun and Wanxue in the kitchen, and I think leisurely, the taste is estimated to be not much worse.
"Ah, it's so fresh! It's the first time I've tasted so fresh. "Under the guidance of a few people in the fifth grandfather's family, they learned how to open crab shells; After tasting a piece of chopsticks and crab roe, the second lady Yao, who had a hearty personality, said to them with a smile.
"It's good if the second aunt likes it." Said with a leisurely smile.
"Haha, I'm really happy today, such a big family is sitting together to eat, lively!" The fifth grandfather laughed and said, "Such delicious seafood, it would be better if it was accompanied by a little wine." ”
As soon as the old man's words fell, Comber walked in with a tray, "Old lady, what do you see here?" Comber put the things on the tray in front of the old man, and continued with a smile: "Miss Youran is careful, and knows that you will definitely want to drink after eating crabs, so she asked the old slave to warm a pot for you. Also, this is said to be a soju brewed by Miss Yuran herself, and it is delicious! ”
"Oh? Is it? ”
