Chapter 298: Let's Play Together
Xiang Min panicked, and rushed out and bumped into Lin Qingwan's hand. *With* Dream *Small* Say .lā
Lin Qingwan thought that he was in some danger, and was about to ask when she saw the wine he was holding in her hand, and she was slightly stunned.
Because she was afraid that there would be no form of drinking, and there were female dependents here today, so she prepared fruit wine and flower wine, she didn't remember to put the champion red?
After stealing the wine and being bumped into by the owner, Xiang Min blushed and saluted with the wine, "Lord Lin." ”
After such a pause, the juniors and disciples behind caught up, "Senior Brother Xiang, let's see what you have dug up......"
Lin Qingwan's gaze couldn't help but fall on the wine again, and the more she looked at it, the more familiar she felt, "This is dug in the garden?" Is there a champion red buried in our garden? ”
Bai Feng pondered hard, and finally his eyes widened slightly, Lin Qingwan also thought of it, looked at the wine in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh, "Let you go to the east to dig peach blossom wine, you can dig to the north, it's also fate." ”
Xiang Min blushed, hugged the wine and said, "Forgive me, the county lord, I'll bury the wine back." ”
Lin Qingwan waved her hand and smiled: "No need, if you can dig it out, it means that you are destined, drinking is a pleasure, and isn't this a pleasure?" ”
Xiang Min breathed a sigh of relief, the flushing on his face gradually dissipated, and he hugged the wine and asked with a smile, "This jar of champion red is good wine, I don't know how many years it has been?" ”
"I really don't know," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "I went to the wine cellar to choose before burying it, all of them are ten to fifteen years old, two years ago one of my nephews set off to the border to bury it, ready to wait for him to return triumphantly in the future." ”
Xiang Min was a little embarrassed again, "Then didn't I steal people's favors?" ”
Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "He doesn't like to drink, not to mention that I buried a total of ten jars at the beginning, as long as Mr. Xiang didn't drink all the wine." ”
Xiang Min scratched his head and smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
His junior brothers have also come back to their senses and looked at Xiang Min reproachfully, so their senior brother also gave other people's wine collections?
Several people stepped forward to salute Lin Qingwan, and then began to constantly aim at the wine in Xiang Min's arms.
At least twelve years old, smelling the faint aroma of wine, they know that this batch of wine is very good.
Lin Qingwan smiled when she saw it, pointed in a direction and said, "There is a pavilion over there, why don't you go there to rest first?" ”
The eyes of several junior disciples lit up and responded, "Excellent, excellent." ”
Then he swarmed Xiang Min in the middle and squeezed him to move there, "Senior Brother Xiang, you must be tired from digging all morning, why don't we go and rest." ”
"Eat some snacks and drink something by the way......"
Lin Qingwan shook her head with a smile and took Bai Feng to the front.
Xiang Min loves wine, she really doesn't know.
Lu Su came with the patriarch of the Lu clan, and Lin Qingwan stood inside the door and saluted from afar, "When the brothers come, they will shine." ”
Lu Dalang couldn't help laughing and said, "It's good that the county lord doesn't think we're bothering." ”
He looked back, but saw the plum trees in the shadows, only a few people walked by occasionally, and he couldn't help asking, "Is Mr. Yao here?" ”
"Here, it's in front, brothers, please."
Yao Shi was admiring the flowers in the open pavilion, and a plum blossom stretched its branches from the outside, and the people in the garden thought that the branches were in a beautiful shape and did not prune them.
Yao Shi also loves this plum and is looking at it in a daze.
Hearing the movement, he turned around and saw the crowd of people following Lin Qingwan, and he couldn't help but step forward with some guesses in his heart.
Lin Qingwan introduced them to each other, "Mr. Yao, this is the patriarch of the Lu clan......"
Lin Run soon brought in the head of the Zhou family, Zhou Bai came from Jiangdu temporarily, quickly whipped up, entered the city this morning, and followed his brother Zhou Song after a rough grooming.
To Lin Qingwan's surprise, Mrs. Shang, who has never liked to go out, also brought the Shang family to come in person, in addition to Shang Mingyuan, she also brought several Shang family relatives, all of whom were elderly and not bad in knowledge.
Lin Qingwan couldn't help laughing, "It seems that Mr. Ji still has a big face." ”
Even if Xie Hong was not in Yangzhou, the Xie family also sent someone over, and Zhao Sheng, who had been avoiding Lin Qingwan recently, also came.
When the guests arrived, it was impossible for Lin Qingwan to turn people away, not to mention that everyone's purpose might be the same today.
Lin Qingwan turned her head to Chief Steward Zhong and said, "If you go back to the other courtyard to transfer some people, you must ensure everyone's safety." ”
Chief Zhong responded, went back and picked out some useful long-term workers, and after thinking about it, he went to find Fang Datong again, "Transfer all the people who can leave under your hands to me." ”
"How?"
Steward Zhong smiled bitterly, "There are too many people, in addition to your ministers, there are also a lot of people from the women's side, although the garden has been fenced, but the long-term workers have not gone through these things, I am afraid that there are some omissions." ”
Fang Datong got up and said, "I'll go with you." ”
Chief Steward Zhong smiled and said, "That's great, I'll give you a few places then, and you just let them keep an eye on the good places." ”
The long-term workers can do their work, but their eyes and minds are definitely not as good as the trained people under Fang Datong, and when the time comes, a farmer will match him with two long-term workers.
One person uses his brain, two people do it, and it is even more foolproof.
Although Fang Datong and them have disabilities, Lin Qingwan has never looked down on them, and even when there are important errands, they are often considered first.
So they have never relaxed their training, and now they rarely work hard for their families anymore, almost everyone has a group of people under them, and if their hands and feet are inconvenient, they will manage people, or do what they are good at.
As a result, they have always had an advantage, and their experience is their most valuable asset.
They have always moved fast, and before the banquet was opened, Fang Datong had already assigned the task, and each of them took two long-term workers to leave, responsible for inspecting the area they were responsible for.
So when Yao Shi and the others walked into the courtyard of the banquet, they saw a man with a broken arm standing in a book with two people, his eyes scanning them.
Yao Shi kept walking inside, and only after sitting down in Lin Qingwan's lower seat did he ask, "Lord Lin, those people with disabilities outside are also from the Lin Mansion?" ”
Lin Qingwan was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, they are all soldiers who have retired from the army, what?" ”
Yao Shi shook his head slightly, "The county lord is righteous." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "This is the legacy of the ancestors, I just follow the instructions of the ancestors." ”
Yao Shi just smiled slightly, the ancestors' testament, naturally when they want to abide by it, it is a testament, and when they don't want to obey, it doesn't exist.
What's more, there is the legacy of the ancestors, but what to do depends on the individual, such as Emperor Meng.
Before leaving, the first emperor also left a reminder that he must be kind to Mr. Ji, not to force him, and not to drive away students who reluctantly came to Jiangling to study.
Emperor Meng abided by this precept for the first half of his life, but now he ......
Yao Shi lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, and raised his eyes to face Zhao Sheng who was diagonally opposite.
Zhao Sheng smiled slightly, raised his glass and gestured to him slightly, Yao Shi smiled back politely and gave a glass in return.
The guests sat down one after another, the male guests and the female guests were separated, and the female guests were in another courtyard, but there were also other female guests here, in addition to Lin Qingwan, there were also Shi Xian and Shi Hui.
Yao Shi and the others wondered why these two people were here at first, but after talking for a few words, they faintly understood.
They talked about education, and most of Mr. Ji's disciples, except for those who went out and went home to inherit the family business, most of the disciples who followed him were engaged in this profession.
Therefore, this topic is the safest, and when it comes to education, Shi Xian and Shi Hui's opinions are no worse than Lu Su's, and their knowledge is not bad, they neither deliberately behave, nor are they inferior and arrogant, but their bland conversations can impress Yao Shi and others.
Lin Qingwan sat on the top without interjecting, quietly smiling and watching them speak.
Zhao Sheng couldn't interject for a while, glanced at Lin Qingwan and then looked down, his eyes swept over the courtyard one by one, and saw that in addition to the major outdoors in Suzhou, there were many unfamiliar faces, some young and old, he couldn't help but whisper to Zhou Song who was sitting beside him, "Zhou Song, I see that those people in the back are very angry, I don't know which family they are." ”
Zhou Song glanced back and said with a smile: "It's not anyone's family, it's some people of insight who are reading books in the reading building." ”
Zhou Song also glanced around the audience, Lin Qingwan gave a lot of invitations, in addition to the Fuxue, Lu's family and several private students, he also gave a lot of invitations to the Reading Building, all of which were people who had been reading books in the Reading Building recently.
I don't know what criteria she used to choose, there are scholars who have recently become famous, and there are also unknown and unheard of faces, among which there are scholars, craftsmen, healers, and even two farmers, an old man and a young man.
At this time, he was sitting on the mat behind him, staring at the food on the table and not daring to move.
But Lin Qingwan paid attention to them very much, and when everyone began to move around freely in the middle of the banquet, she personally brought Du Si to the two and introduced: "I heard that Mr. Du has a unique opinion on farming, I don't know much about farming, but this old man is a good farmer, this is his grandson, he knows a few words, he heard that there are agricultural books in the reading building, so he specially led his grandson to read agricultural books to him." ”
Duce was stunned, he had obviously never seen such a studious farmer, so he was just stunned for a moment and then saluted respectfully to the old man, "Then please ask the old man for more advice." ”
The old man hurriedly helped him up and said, "Where, where, it should be me to ask Mr. ”
He immediately pressed his grandson's head and said, "Don't eat, come and salute Mr." ”
His grandson, who was only eight years old, immediately dropped the chicken leg in his hand, got up and saluted, and Duss supported him and smiled: "No need to be polite, come, let me see what agricultural books you have been reading recently?" ”
He didn't mind, he sat cross-legged on the mat next to the little boy, and said to the old man: "We mostly grow rice and winter wheat in Jiangling, and I think it's similar here in Jiangnan, but I don't know how much yield per mu is here." ”
This is what the old man is best at, his restraint is a little gone, and he also sat on the mat and said: "Then it depends on the land, and it depends on God to eat, like this year's ......"
Lin Qingwan saw that they were talking, so she got up and left, and continued to find partners for these disciples of Mr. Ji.
Even if she didn't know their hobbies or what they were good at, she would introduce them to a few friends according to their personalities, and everyone would chat with each other, and there would always be something to talk about.
