Chapter 63: Rolling Garden
At the end of September.
The eldest lord Zhuang Xi returned to Kyoto, advanced to the palace and faced the saint, and then returned to the house. The old lady asked the family to greet him when he returned home, but because of the tension in the internal affairs of the court, the old lady felt that she let her family act in a low-key manner and did not make a big show. In addition, the eldest master Zhuang Xi was tired, so he asked him to go back to rest in the morning, and all the narration will be continued tomorrow.
That night, according to the old lady's instructions, all the family affairs in the East Mansion were as usual, and the eldest lord and the old couple of the Qin family were not dissatisfied, but Aunt Xi and the little aunt were unhappy because of this. felt that the old lady was partial, and did not give Dongfu a good face, it was rare for the old man to share his worries for the country and earn a good reputation for the house, so he treated it so lightly. Aunt Xi and Aunt Xiao theorized together, and they had nothing to say to Zhuang Xi and Qin.
Here, Aunt Xi just wants to fight for a big man to watch her and go to her house at night. The little aunt couldn't wait to show her belly to the eldest master. So, take the old lady and put it round and round.
The Qin family had already released a message to the people in the house, and the general situation was no different from what the old lady said, reminding the people in the house to be quiet and check. In addition to suppressing Aunt Xi, she also asked Aunt Xi to pay attention to her body, after all, she is pregnant, which is very different from others.
Because Aunt Xi and Aunt Xiao took turns to speak, Qin nodded on the side many times, but they didn't listen. Zhuang Xi felt very noisy, and after dinner, he went to her courtyard with Zhuang Hu's family and talked to his two grandsons everywhere. When I got there, I heard Zhuang Hu report about the accident that had occurred since he left the house. Zhuang Hu and her husband Juste said it in general, Zhuang Xi listened, was silent, and finally said, "I know."
Next.
Zhuang Xi led the way to Shouzhong to live in Bai'an, and the old lady asked someone to prepare the ancestral hall early to worship the ancestors and other matters. When everyone gathered in Shouzhongju to invite the old lady, they went to the ancestral hall to meet the ancestors without mentioning it.
Yu Qi, Sanxi, Zisu, Huiyuan, and Ayu are outsiders, and they know how to avoid suspicion. When everyone went to the ancestral hall, Yu Qi and Sanxi quietly pulled Zhuang Yu and told her: "Your family enters the ancestral hall, and it is inappropriate for us to go." If the old lady asks, you can help me round up a few words. ”
Zhuang Yu knows these etiquettes, but he also treats her as his sister and sincerely invites her to join her. Yu Qi insisted on refusing to go, so he had no choice but to give up with a few polite words.
Yu Qi returned to Jinghua Xie and told some of Xing'an's words to Huiyuan and Zisu. also told them that everyone went to the ancestral hall, and it was not appropriate for them to wait. After the end, he told the old lady that he intended to wait for the ancestral hall to mention Huiyuan's family affairs to the eldest master.
Isn't it to set a fixed plan, a matter of proposing?
Besides, it is necessary to arrange a proper home for Huiyuan's family.
Huiyuan felt ashamed in her heart, but she didn't listen to it. Zisu should be harmonious on the surface, but he doesn't want to see Huiyuan in his heart, and he is also a smiling Ying Yuqi. Seeing that several people were absent-minded, Yu Qi didn't say anything.
It was almost noon, and the two girls of the Qin family in Dongfu, Yuan Qin and Yuan Yi, hurriedly came to speak. said that the old lady and the old lady waited in Dongfu to see Yu Qi and Huiyuan.
Master Yu knew that he wanted to see Huiyuan, why did he have to go over by himself? Naturally, the elders have to follow the summons, and if they have doubts in their hearts, it is difficult to say anything after all. went out of Zhongfu with Yuan Qin and Yuan Yi, and on the way to Dongfu Dao'er, Yuan Qin said that it would be over when he went to see the uncle later, and there was nothing to do, so that the two of them didn't have to be too nervous.
Perhaps, the girl could see the uneasiness in the faces of the two of them.
Because he heard Yuanqin say that he saw his uncle, Yu Qi asked casually: "What's wrong with the eldest brother?" ”
Yuan Qin lamented: "The uncle knelt down to worship the ancestor and fell, carried it back and put it into medicine, and the doctor woke up after seeing it." Old ladies, old men, and ladies are here! ”
Yu Qi was stunned and said with concern: "Okay, what's wrong?" ”
Yuan Qin shook her head, either she knew or didn't know, she was a girl, of course she didn't say what she couldn't say, and Yuan Yi was the same.
to the head of the East Gate. Someone was already waiting by the door, and when they saw Yu Qi and Hui Yuan, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and stepped down to greet them. Yuan Yi Yuanqin behind him smiled bitterly: "Look, I'm in a hurry." ”
Yuan Yi Yuanqin's expression and words made Yu Li's master and servant feel more and more uneasy.
As he spoke, Hui Yuan helped Yu Qi, and the four of them lifted their skirts and went up the steps to the door. Entering the Dongfu compound, Yuan Yi said: "The girl comes with me." ”
Yuan Yi was invited, passing through the courtyard of the house and passing through the inner courtyard, the general layout is not very different from other houses, and it is surrounded by winding corridors. After coming in, follow Yuanyi to the left hand side, go up a slope along the corridor, and then go down a steep step, at the end of the corridor is a garden low moon gate, black tile decoration, white wall powder separation, a few peach blossoms are planted inside and outside, the peach blossom branches are sprouting leaves, scattered dotted in the front and back of the ink tile, such as the small scene under the eaves of the plum garden in the ancient painting.
After the moon gate, a path is paved with colorful crystal jade pebbles, on both sides are green plants, trees and flowers, all neatly and neatly, the cobblestone road is sandwiched in it, it is like hanging rainbows in the sky after the rain. Because the first time I saw this path, not to mention the novelty, it reminded Yu Qi of the scene in the mirror flower Xie Midao, the heart lake cave where the black snake appeared, isn't it surrounded by this kind of spars?
Yu Qi wondered in his heart: Sifu has walked through, and the first time I saw such a road, it can be seen that the old lady said that she didn't care about her big brother, and she really loved it in her heart! Otherwise, how could the hedron that sealed the black hole only fall in his courtyard?
After the cobblestone path, it is a vertical circular wooden instrument door, the body painting of the instrument door is different from the outside, all are the scene on the top of the "Qingming Riverside Map", it is strange that the two sides of the instrument door protrude two small houses and hug the building, very abrupt, and the house behind the instrument door is extremely not on the right.
Yu Qi was silently surprised in his heart. Eye Shunyi door entered, behind is an outer courtyard, clean and no furnishings, straight to the house steps. On the steps is the gate, the gate is pink and black, and the door panel is decorated with silver rivets of the size of a tea bowl, and the silver and black are seen from a distance, which is very solemn and gloomy. Yu Qi thought: It is really suitable for a character like the big brother to live, and it is indeed different from ordinary people.
On both sides of the door are two pieces of white marble ashlar of equal height and width, which is replaced by ordinary people's mansions, and this place should be the plaque of the welcome gate. I saw a few words engraved on it; The side is engraved: "The old is good for you when the round light", and the side is engraved: "The new phase of the round calendar". Stepping into the threshold, looking up at the top, there is a stone horizontally, engraved with two words: "Rolling Garden".
Entering the threshold, Yu Qi glanced at Huiyuan gloomily, presumably what he saw, Huiyuan also saw it.
It's nothing in such a weird place, I'm just afraid that she will marry and have to face the weird Zhuang Xuan, what should be the situation?
Huiyuan helped her, only looked at the ground, hooked her head, and didn't have any expression on her face. At this time, a girl's voice came from inside: "Miss Qi and Miss Huiyuan are here." ”
Then I saw a few mothers-in-law coming out, followed by big girls such as Dao Feng Jianqiu.
Huiyuan held on to Lu Qi's arm tightly, as if she was afraid that she would fly away. Yu Qi heard the report "Huiyuan Girl" inside, knowing this situation, treating her differently than in the past. So he gently removed her hand and said softly: "Focus on yourself, don't worry about me." Don't look down on yourself to them. He smiled softly at Huiyuan.
Huiyuan was reluctant to let go, and Yu Qi signaled again, so she gave up, and finally went in with a girl's demeanor.
Dao Feng Jianqiu stretched out his hand to greet him, but he didn't see clearly what door and what situation he was going, and suddenly saw Zhu'er laughing, raising his hand on Yu Li's elbow, and said, "The girl is just right to come, and the uncle has woken up." ”
Yu Qi didn't dare to ask, and nodded slightly.
When you go inside, you can see a room full of people.
The layout of the house is also different from other places, spacious big house, separated by a solid wood rattan lacquered red screen, the outside guest seats, complete chairs, the ladies of several houses sit on chairs, and the old ladies sit on the kang. All of them looked anxious and solemn, and they all kept silent.
Yu Qi and Hui Yuan passed the salute steadily, and the elders nodded their heads, and some of them were immersed in things and didn't look at her. The girls returned the salute with Zhuang Ying and Zhuang Pu.
Standing up, an old doctor came out of it.
The doctor stroked his beard as if thinking. The eldest man Zhuang Xi sat on the opposite side of the old lady's kang, and when he saw the doctor coming out, he got up hurriedly and said, "I just woke up, why did I fall down again?" ”
The doctor bowed and shook his head.
Qin's tears had never dried, and after reflecting two tear stains, he got up and said, "It's good to go to the ancestral hall, and I still make incense to worship, there is no warning at all." Why? ”
The old lady hurriedly raised her hand to signal the Qin family not to worry, and then spoke: "If it is useless, you can tell us as soon as possible." Sighing fiercely, he picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said: "Grow until you are old, and you can live a long life after many disasters and hardships." People with grains and grains will inevitably have a change. The eldest lady doesn't have to cry, what's the use of crying if she can't save it. I may not be in the field yet! ”
The hearts of the people were heavy.
The doctor said to the old lady: "Let's look at the uncle's complexion first, it's okay, although I don't feel conscious when I lie down, I can breathe evenly in and out, not like the old illness." When I woke up, I fainted again, and then I looked at the color, and the blood gushed on my face, and it didn't go away, but it was a stasis in my heart, and my breathing was rapid and intermittent, I really don't know why. The number of the pulse, two times, there is no difference, the pulse and the spirit of the energy, can not, weak hairspring. The symptoms are sudden, the contradictions are continuous, and the old man really has no idea where to start. Therefore, the old man dared to ask the uncle what he ate in the morning? ”
Everyone hurriedly looked at Qin, and Qin was stunned, thinking about memories. Because it was not accurate, I called Yuanyi and other girls to ask again, and the girls said that the uncle had not eaten in the morning, and it was like this in the past. Qin's was not at ease, and asked Zhuang Wei to talk back and forth in the second room in the house, and the second room said that he had come back from dinner the night before and shouted to eat wine, she took some, and he ate a few bites, thinking that he was drunk and fell asleep; In the middle of the night, she got up and coaxed him to take half a bowl of medicine, which was also a daily cure for madness. There was nothing else, I got up early in the morning, I didn't eat, and then I went to Shouzhongju with the people of the wife's house to ask for peace, and went all the way to the ancestral hall.
After listening, the doctor asked the second room to test the remaining wine and medicine he had drunk the night before. Check it again, and it's the same as usual.
At this time, the girl inside shouted that the uncle was awake, and the voice did not fall, and it came out again that the uncle vomited blood.
In this way, the old lady was so anxious that she hurriedly got off the kang, the eldest old man Zhuang Xi and the second old man Zhuang Lu stepped forward to help, and the Qin family had already run in. The people behind also followed, and a bunch of people went in one after another, and those who couldn't squeeze in the back looked at the people along the line.
Yu Qi and Hui Yuan stood far away on the edge of the kang and didn't get closer.
