Chapter 103: Grandparents Visit the Sick (4)
Wen Yi followed Wen Hui to the Kwai Courtyard where Wen An lived, and before she entered the door, her heart moved, and she was slightly two steps behind, allowing Wen Hui to take the lead. Wen Hui didn't realize it yet, and as soon as she entered the door and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl sitting under the porch, she shouted: "Peony, how is the seventh young master today?" ”
The big girl was wearing a white silk jacket, silver and red embroidered armor, tied a water-red pleated skirt, and wore a few gold beads and hairpin rings on her head, which was also gorgeous, and she was a first-class character of the big girl at first glance. When she heard Wen Hui's words, she looked up, first stunned, then put on a faint smile, got up and replied, "Sixth Miss, Seventh Young Master is fine today." And so he stopped.
Wen Hui just continued to shout: "Where is he now?" Miss Nine came to visit the sick and came to see him, let him come out! ”
The peony girl's eyes rolled, staring at Wen Yi who fell behind, a little hesitant. Wen Yi only felt that she was very angry, and remembered that there was a rumor that the eldest aunt Jiang had replaced all the girls around her younger son, so she guessed that this girl probably came from Beijing. She smiled at the other party and said, "It came suddenly, forgive me for taking the liberty of it." The peony lowered her head slightly, but she was not as respectful as the other girls in the long room, but she said indifferently: "Miss Nine is polite, and the slave doesn't dare to be a slave." ”
The curtain of the door was lifted, and another girl came out of the main room, but she was a girl wearing a bean green bijia and a lake-colored pleated skirt, dressed a little more plain than peony, and looked a year or two older, but her appearance was inferior. She smiled before she spoke: "It turns out that Miss Six and Miss Nine have arrived, and the Seventh Young Master is in the house, and he is in a panic, two young ladies please come into the house and sit!" ”
Wen Hui immediately entered the house with the curtain she lifted, Wen Yi fell behind, smiled and nodded to her, and when she walked in, she suddenly smelled a rich lily fragrance, but there was something weird, it seemed to be mixed with several other aromas, but it made people smell stuffy. Wen Yi frowned slightly, then smiled, and walked towards Wen Hui's voice.
Wen An was lying on the Huang Huali recliner under the window of the small study in the west reading a book, with a Erlang leg cocked, a leisurely appearance, Wen Hui stood beside him and talked to him, he was a little ignorant, just casually "Hmm" a few times, his eyes just stared at the book.
Wen Hui said a few words, and when she saw him like this, she was a little annoyed, so she snatched the book, glanced at it, and stomped her feet and said, "I'm talking to you, what are you doing just looking at these miscellaneous notes of your predecessors?!" It's just some poor sours who have been reading books for a few years, making up some sensational so-called secrets, and defrauding a few people of food money! You can see how ridiculous it is, and you still think of it as a treasure! If you have this leisure, you might as well go out for a walk! ”
Wen An sneered and turned over: "I want to go out for a walk, but it's a pity that I have such a face, for fear that others will think that I have seen a ghost in broad daylight!" ”
He was together, and Wen Yi had a straight face with him. It turned out that the skin under the right cheek of his face was like a smooth ground that had been plowed out of several deep pits, obviously uneven, and the raised scar spread all the way to the bottom of his right ear. Wen Yi was secretly surprised, she only heard that Wen An had a scar on her face, but she didn't know that it was so serious.
However, Wen An has always valued his appearance, and he refuses to even go out of the house, so he must hate the fuss that others make about the injury on his face, right? Wen Yi clenched his fist under his sleeve, but his face was not half different, he just smiled and saluted: "I have seen the seventh brother, I heard that the seventh brother is recuperating before, and the younger sister did not dare to come to disturb, but now it can be regarded as a great peace, so I specially came to visit, and asked the seventh brother not to blame the younger sister for being abrupt." ”
A trace of surprise flashed in Wen An's eyes, but there was a faint look on his face: "Ninth Sister has a heart, why did you have time to come here today?" ”
Without waiting for Wen Yi to answer, Wen Hui quickly interjected: "Ninth Sister heard that the medicine you got from Liu Dongxing is gone, and there is nowhere to find medicine, so she proposed to let you go back to Beijing with us and ask Liu Dongxing to dispense medicine for you again!" ”
Wen An's face sank instantly, and he sneered: "I won't help you communicate with the Liu family!" Then he lay back on the recliner, picked up the book and continued to read, and said casually: "I am lazy after my illness, and the etiquette is not thorough, don't be surprised by the ninth sister!" ”
Wen Hui's eyes suddenly turned red, she took two deep breaths, and called him woodenly: "Get up for me!" ”
Wen An just rolled over.
Wen Hui's eyes were wet, and she flicked her sleeves and ran out of the door. The girl in Tsing Yi standing in the corner shouted quickly: "Peony, send Miss Six quickly!" He turned back to Wen Yi and smiled: "The Seventh Young Master is in a bad mood, I'm really sorry to snub Miss Nine." ”
If it were a weekday, Wen Yi would have left at this time, but she came with the idea of listening to the news, how could she give up easily? After thinking about it, he walked to the side of the recliner with a smile and said softly, "Seventh brother, don't be angry. The sixth sister has already turned against the cousin of the Liu family, if it weren't for your medicine, she wouldn't have thought of looking for the Liu family. When I didn't want to talk to her just now, she also said that she didn't want to deal with the surname Liu, and scolded the cousin of the Liu family for a big call. If I hadn't persuaded her, Seventh Brother's injury would have mattered, and she would never have mentioned this matter to you. ”
The corners of Wen An's eyebrows moved, his eyes rolled, and he seemed to be smiling: "Is this true?" But okay, how could you mention Brother Xing'er's medicine? She told you first, right? ”
Wen Yi smiled: "Seventh brother forgot? Then go back to the other side of the river to play, you and Liu Dagongzi are in the same boat with me, and he mentioned an excellent recipe for scar removal at that time. Therefore, when I heard that the sixth sister was worried about you, I remembered this incident and mentioned it. Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu had already sent the medicine, but he ran out, but he had nowhere to find him. ”
Wen An's expression softened a lot, and he said a little gloomily: "Actually, he gave me a prescription, but the medicine prepared according to that prescription worked at the beginning, but it can only be cured to this point now." What's the use of rematching? I don't go out and be scary! ”
"You can't say that." Wen Yi was still smiling, "He knows this recipe, maybe he knows a better recipe?" I heard that he had a very good friend, the son of a big merchant who had returned to the sea, and he was the most well-informed. He didn't know, so maybe his friend knew? There's no way to do it, so it's good to ask. Aren't Prince Liu and Seventh Brother friends? If he knew your current situation, he would definitely help! ”
Wen An sat up sullenly and said, "Even if he knows, he may not be willing to help!" I've written to him since he left here, but I haven't been able to reply. Where do I dare to have extravagant hopes?! Those friends in the past, I'm afraid that now they all think of me as a ghost! ”
Wen Yi covered his mouth and chuckled: "Seventh brother, if you say this to others, I will still believe it, but if you want to say that Young Master Liu, it is absolutely impossible!" When he brought you back, your injuries were ten times worse than they are now?! He wasn't afraid at that time, and now it's naturally impossible to be afraid! As for not replying...... I heard from the sixth sister that he had been appreciated by the big men in the army before, got a letter of recommendation, and went to the martial arts examination! But his family didn't know anything about it at first, but they were furious afterwards. He may not be able to receive the letter he wants to send here. ”
Wen An was immediately taken aback, and suddenly stood up: "He took the martial arts exam?!" Did he really take the test?! "I knew he would do something big!" He didn't say hello to me......" Then he sneered, "Of course the third aunt and the third uncle are going to be angry, they just hope that he will have no interest in his life, and it is best to nest in the countryside for a lifetime, listen to them, marry a country girl as a wife, give birth to a few children who have no interest, and ask them to give them a few taels of silver when they have no money to spend, and then thank them for a thousand thanks, bow three times and knock on the ground, and turn back to proclaim the benevolence and good name of their husband and wife in the clan, and it is best to publicize it to everyone in the world...... What a loud abacus! ”
Wen Yi tried to hold back the smile, only to feel very happy in her heart, and wiped away all the resentment she had against Wen An in the past, and her expression was much closer: "Since Seventh Brother knows his difficulties, he must be able to understand it, he doesn't have the intention to be estranged from you, most of it is inconvenient." ”
Wen An snorted twice, and suddenly stared at Wen Yi again: "Why did you suddenly help him speak?" Are you familiar with him? ”
Wen Yi hurriedly restrained his expression and laughed dryly: "Seventh brother is confused? Didn't we just talk about his scar removal formula? Since he is not estranged from the seventh brother, then you can write a letter and ask a reliable person to bring him into Beijing, and you don't need to ask someone from the Liu family to transfer it, just ask where the people participating in the martial arts will gather, and then find an opportunity to find him directly, which will save trouble. ”
Wen An smiled: "Didn't the sixth sister just say that you want to persuade me to return to Beijing with them?" ”
Wen Yi pursed his lips and smiled: "If the seventh brother returns to the capital, it will be more convenient to find someone." Since he has taken the martial arts examination, he must refer to the examination next year, and he is not afraid that he will not be in Beijing. ”
Wen An thought about it and felt that it really made sense, even if Liu Dongxing didn't know, but he had a friend who wouldn't look sideways at the scars on his face, and he didn't have to be stuffy in the house all day. It's just that he was still a little hesitant: "If I go back to Beijing...... Friends and family should definitely come and ask......"
Wen Yi said: "What if you come to ask?" A manly man, why bother with gains and losses for the sake of appearance? Besides, the seventh brother was originally handsome, but he just added a few scars, and he was far away, so he couldn't see it. There are more people with scars on their faces, and Mr. Liu also has scars, but he can still take the martial arts test! When Seventh Brother does his next career in the future, who else will talk about a few small scars on your face?! ”
Wen An felt very pleasant when he heard it: "That's right!" In the spring, Brother Xing'er is not as good as me in terms of riding and shooting! Before he left, I heard him say that he would practice martial arts hard, and it was only a few months of kung fu? He was hit by the martial arts! I also use my skills to catch up with Ming'er, and when I come back from the martial arts championship in the future, if anyone dares to laugh at me for breaking my appearance, I will throw him down the Huaijiang River! ”
The Huai River is a big river flowing on the edge of the capital, it is said that the water depth is dozens of zhang, if you throw people down, it is really cruel. Wen Yi laughed a few times, recited a few words of Buddha in his heart, and then said: "The eldest aunt came back from Beijing, she must know more about the current situation of the Liu family, why don't the seventh brother call the two girls to ask, see if the eldest prince Liu lives in the capital Liufu now?" ”
Wen An immediately turned his head and called: "Qinghui, do you know?!" "It's the Tsing Yi Yahuan who called.
Qinghui replied with a smile: "I've heard a little bit of rumors. Mrs. Sangu once cried to our wife in the house, saying that the young master Liu had returned to Beijing since he had called back, and somehow he had met a few generals, and he was not at home all day, only messing around outside, sometimes he came back drunk, and sometimes he had blood on his body, and it was swollen here, green there, all of which were commonplace! No day is perfect. The family scolded him several times, but it didn't work, until he was hit by the martial arts people, and he didn't know what was going on. My aunt wanted to teach him a lesson, but he just said some cruel words and drove him out, thinking that after only a day or two, he knew that he was wrong, and went back to the house to beg for mercy, and never dared to mess around again. Unexpectedly, he rented a house outside to live, and he didn't even spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home! ”
Wen An laughed and clapped his hands: "I see! He's at ease! When I return to Beijing, I must come to the door to trouble him! ”
Wen Yi secretly felt sorry for Liu Dongxing in her heart, and she didn't know if the injuries on his body were serious, whether he had healed now, and worried that he would move out to live, and I didn't know if there was anyone waiting for him, I thought he would take the exam next year, in case there was no one to take care of his daily life, and he practiced hard every day, would there be anything wrong with his body?
She was in a mess in her heart, but after hearing Qing Hui introduce the content of Liu Gu's crying, a sentence suddenly popped up: "Young Master Liu has won the appreciation of several generals and sons, and some people have come to ask him if he is married, thinking that he wants to kiss him." When Mrs. set off, Aunt Liu already had the intention of relieving herself, but she had not completely dissipated her anger, and when she came to the end of the year, Prince Liu would always go back to the house to worship her ancestors. When the time comes, say a few good words, and Aunt Liu will let him go back. How can you say that it is also a family, and Aunt Liu is his elder, so you can't just let him live outside alone, right? ”
Wen Yi's heart was shocked, and she didn't hear what Wen An said clearly, so she only tightened the handkerchief under her sleeve, and listened to Wen An finish: "...... What a good person! If the third aunt finds him an ugly monster or a tigress, I must go back to support him! He smiled reluctantly, looked at the embarrassed expression on Qinghui's face, and changed the topic: "The sixth sister just ran out, I don't know if the anger has disappeared now?" He persuaded Wen An again, "She is annoyed by the cousin of the Liu family who slandered you, and I don't know how many times a day she scolds that person!" No matter how many mistakes she makes, she still hurts you in her heart. Seventh brother, what if you just treat her kindly? ”
When Wen An heard this, he smiled and said a little reluctantly, "Got it." Then he lay back in his chair.
Wen Yi hurriedly looked for an opportunity to quit, but this time Qinghui sent her out of the hospital diligently, and she was surprised to see Peony. Wen Yi took the opportunity to ask her some words such as "how old is it", "is it a child born in the family", "where was the original errand", "who else is in the family", and then went back to Xuanyuan to sit alone.
By the time Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yu finished talking and took their granddaughter home, it was already noon. Wen Yi ordered someone to go to dinner, but looked at her grandmother, hesitated for a long time, there were countless things to say in her stomach, but she was embarrassed to say it, bit her lip, held back, and after eating, she went to Mama Zhao's room and whispered everything she heard to her.
Mama Zhao was shocked, and immediately told Mrs. Lu. Old Madam Lu withdrew from everyone and summoned her granddaughter to come and ask questions until she had listened to every word and sentence Wen Yi heard from the long room, and then fell silent.
Wen Yi was worried and looked at her grandmother uneasily, only the tightly twisted silk handkerchief in her hand revealed a little anxiety.
After a while, Mrs. Lu said something that surprised Wen Yi: "Your eldest uncle and grandmother will return to Beijing with your eldest aunt to recuperate, and when the time comes, ...... You go along! ”
