Chapter 32 Buying a Coffin
Waiting for the girl of the Zhao family to leave, Zhu Siyun smiled and said: "This Zhao girl is quite likable, and she is worthy of being carefully raised by the Zhao family." ”
Yao Muhe, the pawn of the horse, was not there, and Zhu Siyun could only come out on his own.
Yao Shanyu and Gao Zhi, who are straight-hearted, couldn't hear the meaning of the words, but Yao Zhen and Chen Xiao could hear that her words did not mean well.
The two of them agreed, frowned slightly, and glanced at Zhu Siyun, who was as light as a chrysanthemum, gentle and kind, and seemed to be a bit out of character.
But the two didn't talk about her, Yao Zhen said Yao Shanyu, "Eat so many pastries, will you still have afternoon food for a while?" ”
Yao Shanyu said with a smile: "If you have meat, you can eat it, but if you don't have meat, you can't eat it." ”
"You dug up so many wild vegetables, and you ate wild vegetables at noon, but there was no meat." Yao Zhen said.
"Big brother, I'm your own sister, don't your conscience hurt if you abuse me like this?" Yao Shanyu asked with a sad face.
Yao Zhen snorted coldly, "Don't pretend to be pitiful. ”
said that, when it was time to eat, although Yao Zhen gave her several chopsticks and wild vegetables to eat, she was not forbidden to eat meat, as well as the wild scallion scrambled eggs that she wanted to eat.
"Wow, this scrambled egg with wild scallion is so fragrant." Yao Shanyu took a bite and was full of praise, "It's delicious, it's delicious." ”
"Gardenia, eat without saying anything." Yao Zhen said with a straight face.
Yao Shanyu made a grimace, but he was still obedient and didn't speak again.
On the other side, everyone in the Zhao family also began to have lunch, and Yang Hao peeked at Zhao Wangshu from time to time.
Zhao Wangshu noticed it, but Yang Hao didn't talk to her, so she didn't know.
After lunch, everyone went to the Dragon Temple near Wanshou Mountain according to the custom to burn incense and worship the gods.
In the morning, the emperor led hundreds of civil and military officials to sacrifice the dragon god, which was an official act, and in the afternoon, the people sacrificed to the dragon god was a folk activity.
The purpose of sacrificing to the dragon god is to let the dragon god prosper the clouds and rain on time, so that the wind and rain are smooth and the grains are abundant.
Zhao Wangshu suddenly remembered a sentence he had heard in his previous life, Huaguo did not raise idle spirits, and smiled.
The dragon temple sits in the north and faces south, the main hall enshrines the dragon king of the four seas, the dragon king is enshrined in the hall, and the apse is dedicated to the sun, the moon and the stars, the thunder prince, the electric mother and other immortals.
After burning incense to the gods from all walks of life, it was still early, and the Zhao family and his party were wandering outside the temple.
The incense of the Dragon Temple is vigorous, usually the stall vendors sell goods here, today not only the stalls and hawkers are more, there are more pilgrims, the crowds of people, the excitement is extraordinary.
"How do you sell small baskets?" Zhao Shuangzhi asked.
"I'm selling wild fruits." The seller was a seven or eight-year-old girl, who was timid.
Zhao Shuangzhi stared at the wild fruit with a disgusted expression, shook his head and said, "This fruit looks sour, I don't like it, I just want to buy a basket, how much is it?" ”
The young girl did not know the skills of communication, and was silent, just pursed her lips and remained silent.
Zhao Wangshu smiled and leaned over, and asked her kindly, "How do you sell these fruits?" ”
"Ten cents." The girl replied softly.
Zhao Wangshu turned his head and said to Zhao Shuangzhi, "Count the money." ”
After Zhao Shuangzhi finished paying, Zhao Wangshu poured the wild fruits into the girl's basket, "You eat these fruits yourself, and the basket will be given to her." ”
Zhao Jiahua couldn't help laughing, "It's really a long experience, someone actually bought the pearl back." ”
"I like to do this, what does it have to do with you." Zhao Shuangzhi glared at her in displeasure.
Zhao Jiahua sneered, "Let's go together, I just don't want others to think I'm as stupid as you." ”
"You're stupid, I'm happy to be rich and hard to buy." Not to be outdone, Zhao Shuangzhi replied to her.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Zhao He decisively shouted: "Enough, shut up." ”
Although the two were unwilling, they didn't dare to disobey him, so they could only glare at each other angrily.
Everyone walked around the market until Shen Shizheng set foot on the road back to the city.
When he was about to reach the gate of the city, he heard someone behind him shouting, "Get out of the way, get out of the way." ”
Sitting in the carriage, she couldn't see the situation outside, but when she heard this shout, she was a little panicked, Zhao Yuying was curious, couldn't help it, and still opened the curtains.
Zhao Wangshu was also curious, and leaned over to look.
A few men on fast horses galloped past the car, and all she could see was the cloaks raised high behind them.
Someone next to him said: "It's Long Tingwei." ”
"Long Tingwei is in such a hurry, there shouldn't be anything serious, right?"
"There are big things to worry about, and we don't need to worry about it."
As he spoke, the people, horses, and carts who gave way to Long Tingwei entered the city.
Back at the mansion, I went to greet Mrs. Zhao first.
"You go out for a day, you are tired, go back to the room and rest, you can use it in the room at night, you don't have to come over."
"Thank you for your kindness." Zhao Yuzhen made a farewell salute and led his sisters away.
The next day, the girls went to school as usual in the courtyard.
After Mr. Mo explained "Boudoir", he asked the other girls to go out, leaving Zhao Shuqing alone, "Miss Qing, you copy "Boudoir" three times, and give it to me Ming'er." ”
Zhao Shuqing asked puzzledly, "Sir, am I the only one who copied it?" ”
"That's right, you copy it alone, so that you can't remember, do something wrong, ruin your reputation, and bring shame to your family." Mr. Mo said coldly and bluntly.
Zhao Shuqing thought of something, his face changed slightly, and he argued forcefully: "It was an accident." ”
Mr. Mo ignored her, took the book and left.
In the afternoon, the buckwheat lady who was arranged by Zhao Wangshu to send the potted millet pepper home came back from the Zhuangzi, "Girl, the old lady said that she would let people grow rice peppers well." ”
Zhao Wangshu smiled, she knew that her grandmother was the most reliable.
The Ministry of Rites sent someone to send a heavy gift, saying that it was to thank the girl. The old lady asked the slave to ask the girl, what did the girl do? ”
Zhao Wangshu raised his eyebrows, he had to tell his grandmother about saving people, and her grandmother would definitely punish her.
It's not that it's wrong to save people, it's that she's just a little girl, and it's too risky to do so.
"The old lady asked the slave to tell the girl that the wine shop at home had produced wine, and it tasted good, and it had been sold."
"Isn't grandmother going to sell the wine in the city?" Zhao Wangshu asked with a smile.
"The old lady said that she was not in a hurry, and when the reputation spread, she would come to the city to buy a shop and open a shop."
After talking about business and interesting things, the buckwheat lady smiled and said: "When the slave went back, she met the matchmaker, and she came to say goodbye to the eldest young master." ”
"Which family are you talking about?" Zhao Wangshu asked with concern.
"I'm talking about the eldest daughter of the Zhujuzi family in the next village, and the uncle of the Zhujuzi, who is the first assistant."
"Grandmother agreed?"
"The old lady said that the eldest young master's family affairs will be talked about after the eldest young master's imperial examination, and now is the critical time, so you can't be distracted."
"Indeed." Zhao Wangshu shook his head, her brother was only nineteen years old, and it was not too late to get married two years later, "It's hard work, go and rest." ”
On the sixth day of the second month, Zhao Wangshu studied with Mr. as usual, and the magpie came over, "Miss Shu, the county lord of Yixing is here, and the old lady invites you to go out to meet guests." ”
Zhao Wangshu looked down at the clothes on his body, and said politely: "There is Sister Lao Magpie." ”
