Chapter 9 Song Erye of the Cao Gang (3)
In the Shuanghong Courtyard of the Zhejiang Guild Hall, Chen Yan looked proud, sat in the quilt with Qi Su Niang, ate the chicken porridge fed by Qi Su Niang, and said with a smile: "Su Niang, I said a long time ago, my alcohol consumption is not good, pretending to be drunk is a disadvantage, and I dare not drink more when there is a woman in front of me." You don't have to worry at all.
”
Qi Su Niang couldn't help but be overjoyed, scooped a few spoonfuls of porridge and fed him, and said with a smile: "I was in the Ninth Master's Mansion last night, and I heard my brother say that you were drunk and crazy, and yelled for me to go back, so I felt that something was wrong." On weekdays, you are drunk and sleeping, where can you still shout? ”
Chen Yan laughed, kissed Qi Su Niang, watched her put the chicken soup porridge back on the kang table, held a plate of glutinous rice chicken balls in her hand, picked it up and brought it to his mouth. Chen Yan chewed and swallowed, and said vaguely: "If I don't drink and shout to find you, they won't send me home." I don't think it's right, although that adult is a full official, when he traveled with Jiangnan scholars, he put up Han seats. Yesterday I invited all Jiangnan people, why are the seats full? The woman was just a distant cousin of his wife, and she couldn't be considered a relative of the house, so she came out to toast. The Governor of Zhili is a hardcore Eight Masters, so I naturally have to be careful. ”
Qi Su Niang was full of joy and kissed Chen Yan on the face, "Lord Futai is very discerning, and the concubine is really admired." After that, I grabbed a few more chopsticks and fed him. Chen Yan laughed proudly, the more he showed his merits in front of Qi Su Niang, looking at the six porridge dishes on the kang table, picking and choosing, one will eat roast pork skin, and the other will eat silk mixed meat. Qi Su Niang giggled, there was nothing to do, picked up a fine chopsticks and sent them to his mouth, Chen Yanzu drank three bowls of chicken porridge before stopping.
Qi Su Niang pursed her lips and smiled, watching the six porridge dishes on the table being swept away, and called: "Bi'er, still send another table of dishes in." ”
Chen Yan saw that Qi Su Niang rearranged the dishes, and ate three bowls of chicken porridge, and laughed and surprised, "Su Niang, how did you eat so much today, I was born in my heart last night, and I ate very little, you are"
Qi Su Niang swallowed a glutinous rice chicken ball, pouted and said: "The fourteenth master summoned me and set up a banquet, but the dish is from the south, where can I sit down and eat?" I ate three buns standing up, drank a bowl of soup, and just put a pad on it, where can I really eat? ”
Chen Yan hugged her and said with a smile: "That's right, when I was in Yangzhou, the emperor called me to have dinner together, and specially gave me a seat, I couldn't eat much, not to mention that you were still standing." This slave is also uncomfortable, but fortunately, we are not Beijing officials, so we don't have to suffer this crime often. ”
Qi Su Niang chuckled, "You be quiet, don't let outsiders listen, treat you as a big disrespect, and you dare to complain about the emperor's grace." He pointed to the garlic slices and shredded herring on the plate, "In the past, I couldn't even stand up to eat in the palace, so we had to wait for the masters to eat and drink happily, so we could take turns to eat some." Garlic, ginger, and green onions are not allowed to be eaten, and fish cannot be eaten, for fear of a fishy smell and directed at the masters. At night, I had a snack at night, I didn't dare to eat, I was hungry until dawn, and I was afraid that I would make a mistake. In the summer, everyone has a watermelon every day, and they don't dare to eat it, for fear of being cold and cold, and it is a big disrespect to be disrespectful in front of the masters. When I sleep, I can only look the same, curled up on my side to sleep, afraid of facing the temple god, how many times have I been woken up by Mama Yu in the middle of the night before I remember this rule. Walk calmly, don't laugh loudly, don't open your mouth, I changed it after a long time after I left the palace...... Li Er's family also said that I pretended to be ......"
Chen Yanyuan still listened with a smile. Slowly, he smiled. looked at Qi Su Niang in a daze. Listen to her babbling about the old things in the palace.
“…… Fortunately, the Queen Mother is always rewarded...... Even if others are red-eyed, they can only use words to squeeze me...... I saved a lot of money. Later, he bought 300 acres of land in Gaoyou. Being a palace maid for a year or two can save this furniture. Come and think about it. It's worth it to abide by these rules......" Qi Su Niang recalled. After talking for a while, I couldn't hear Chen's response. Can't help but look up at him. "What's wrong. Brother Chen. Why don't you speak? ”
Chen Yan hugged Qi Su Niang tightly. Lay your head on her shoulder. Vaguely said, "It's okay." I just suddenly got sleepy again. Qi Su Niang smiled and pushed him. It's not too early. The emperor may summon you to the palace at any time. If you are sleepy. Let's go to bed early in the evening---"
"Master. Someone from the palace."
Song Qing and Di Fengru dismounted in front of Sanqing Garden. More than a dozen mule carts passed on Changyangmen Street. The long cart dragged by mules and horses was filled with various flowers such as the earth and the moon, peonies, and peonies in the greenhouse. The body of the car is pulled with the blue long flag of "Fengtai Eighteen Flower Village".
"These are all flowers sent to the Eighth Prince's Mansion," Sanqingyuan's guy saw the two of them look at ......the flowers. While smiling and pointing. led the two to the theater building. A three-storey building in a hollow shape surrounds a large stage. Forty tables are scattered on the first floor. It's half full. There were four or five sitting on the ground, all neatly dressed and full of women. All of them are inserted and beaded. There is no shortage of good-looking people. I was sipping tea and laughing. Waiting for the play to start at noon.
Song Qing and Di Fengru followed their men to the second floor, and there were twelve boxes on the second and third floors, all of which were set up facing the stage, and from time to time you could hear the Manchu voice and laughter coming from the boxes.
Song Qing is a native of Zhili, Di Rufeng is also well-informed, knows that Manchu girls are noble, not to mention that when they marry their aunts and grandmothers back to their parents' homes, they can go out to watch plays, eat tea, visit doors, and fork sparrow cards, even those unmarried old girls can also go shopping in theater houses, which is very different from the rules of Han women.
"The two masters, the fourteenth master is the Zhongyang room on the second floor."
The Zhongyang room was originally a private room on the left side of the middle of the second floor, and the location was excellent, and only the private room in the middle of the second floor was above it. The deacon in the Fourteenth Prince's Mansion respectfully welcomed the two in, "Song Ye, Di Ye, the Fourteenth Master sent servants to greet the four masters here, and he will arrive immediately." ”
"It's because we came early, and it's a lot of trouble."
The deacon ordered people to serve tea and snacks, and quietly withdrew. Song Qing walked to the window, smiled slightly, and was about to talk to Di Fengru, but saw him
In front of the window, I stared at Changyang Street.
"What's wrong?" Song Qing followed his gaze to the center of the street, the float was already far away, the two officials in the street opened the way, and after the two officials, a young man in Tsing Yi led a horse. The man who was sitting immediately was only twenty-seven or eighteen, wearing a warm hat with a blue and gold thread on his head, wearing a five-clawed and eight-python white background cloud goose mending stone green official robe, and his waist was tied with a silver guard and gold round plate belt.
Song Qing recognized it as a four-grade civil official robe, seeing that he was very young and very light, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, he looked at it intently, only to feel that this person had a clear face, a straight waist and wide shoulders, and an extraordinary atmosphere, and was speculating who it was, and Di Fengru's voice came from his ears, "It's Yangzhou Mansion Tai Chen Yan Chen Changzhi." ”
Song Qing was slightly startled, and Di Fengru said again: "I'm afraid I'm going to see the emperor in the palace." After that, he looked at Song Qing, "He is not a simple person. ”
The float of the eighteen villages of Fengtai entered the inner city all the way from Changyang Gate and sent 500 pots of flowers to the Eight Princes' Mansion. The eighth elder brother played with a newly sent pot of jade belt peony, "Chen Bianzhi really didn't put on the set, and the gift was in vain." ”
The fourteenth elder brother snorted coldly, "It's a shame that he came to talk to me, if Chen Bianzhi was caught by him so easily, how could the master suffer such a loss back then?" ”
Brother Jiu smiled: "Let's just take a look, whether the ninety percent is accurate or not." ”
Eighth Elder Brother turned around, walked to the table, and picked up a picture of Jinzhu on the table, "Jiangsu Gang Lian Zhenyun has been dragging on for too long, and I can't let him continue to wait and see." ”
The fourteenth elder brother glared, "No, the toad wants to eat swan meat, and he also deserves it" and scolded again: "It's so stupid that I can't scold her, I have a pair of white eyes, and I want Chen Bianzhi to know about it from the outside, and I don't believe it if I don't divorce her."
Eighth Elder Brother smiled slightly, "I didn't say that I wanted to give him sweetness, what are you anxious about?" Even if Chen Bianzhi dies at this moment, it won't be his turn, right? Song Qing will post to invite Lian Zhenyun to come to the capital in May, at that time Chen Changzhi has gone back, taking advantage of Lian Zhenyun's absence, the Yangzhou Mansion and the financial road are all stuck, give Lian Zhenyun some color to see, and don't let him go to Beijing for nothing. ”
The fourteenth elder brother nodded and smiled: "This thing is easy to do, I was dizzy last night, I was originally going to tell her about it, and tell her to stay away from Lian Zhenyun." Her temperament, if you want to know this, it's strange not to step on Lian Zhenyun to death. Chen Bianzhi is her husband, so he naturally wants to be angry for her, so he doesn't have to say that he can't be reasonable. As he spoke, he stood up and shook his Ugin horsewhip in the air, "I invited Luo Shiqing and the four of them to watch a play and have a drink in Sanqing Garden, and left first." ”
The ninth elder brother looked at the back of the fourteenth elder brother leaving, and said with a smile: "This time he deserves to be happy, and it doesn't take us half a word." ”
"We don't have to think much about this, haven't you seen him know about this, if she was a woman in the fourteenth brother's mansion, she would have been hung up and smoked. She is really involved with Lian Zhenyun, and she has to be forced by the fourteenth brother, and it is useless to make trouble. The eighth elder brother sighed, "Prince Lian Zhenyun has been abolished for half a year, and the emperor has also ordered the ministers to discuss the crown prince. The emperor dragged it like this, and it was common sense for people to wait and see...... "Put down the painting in his hand, turned his head to look at the jade ribbon peony on the flower table in the corner of the house, "Jiangnan, I'm afraid these flowers have bloomed......"
Under the Hongqiao Bridge in Yangzhou, the small rowed flower boat is around the painting boat of the spring to sell, the peony flower will be lively in February and the general liveliness of previous years, and the tide of grain grabbing in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces is still isolated outside Yangzhou Mansion.
"Big ...... The Great Master...... Ba'er, Ba'er, she ......" even the big boat knelt in the painting boat, his face was deadly white, "the big boss ......"
Lian Dahe scolded angrily: "Look at the flower boat outside, does it send flowers to your house every month?" Let me tell you, before you got married, the flower boat sent flowers to her building every month. In the capital, even the things about the female relatives in our house are asked clearly, and you are fascinated by the things in your heart, you say, what did you say to Qin Ba'er? ”
Even the big boat heard the words "female relatives coming and going", and suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of horror, "...... Small...... Xiaodi in order to let Ba'er ...... Let Ba'er wait with peace of mind...... Put the lady ...... Madame's business......" Before he spoke, his whole body went limp, and he collapsed on the ground.
Although Lian Dahe had already guessed this, when he heard Lian Dachuan speak, his heart was like a drum, sweating through his heavy clothes, and he didn't dare to raise his head. After a while, I heard the voice of Xiao Jin'er gently placing it on the table, and Lian Zhenyun said slowly: "All said?" Have you talked about the land in the garden and the dam repair? ”
Even Dahe Porphyry knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "Big boss, he didn't dare to say a word about those small things, and he didn't know anything about the big boat."
He dragged the boat with his hand, slapped him twice, and scolded: "Don't say it quickly, what did you say?" ”
Lian Dachuan was beaten to the corner of his mouth bleeding, his face was red and purple, and he cried vaguely: "Brother Dahe, I'...... I'm just saying, big bosses...... There is only one lady in the heart of the big boss...... Just waiting to marry his wife...... As long as the lady doesn't nod, she doesn't have to enter the mansion to be a concubine......"
The voice of the water column poured into the wine cup sounded, "That's all?" ”
Even the big ship kowtowed again and again, "Small...... The small ones don't dare to deceive the big masters...... The little one really only said these two sentences......"
"Dahe, go and do it, carry the lotus incense to make the main room. Lift Rui'er and Sister Gui'er into a side room, carry Dong Guan'er and Qin Cao'er into the mansion, and Huai'an's also send them over and carry them into the mansion. Give the post to the official eunuchs and gentry of Yangzhou City, and the Cao gang of the nine provinces of Caohe, and none of them will fall. Lian Zhenyun raised the golden cup to his mouth, "Let Lianxiang immediately post to the capital, and ask Mrs. to come back to watch the ceremony." ”
