Chapter 1205, Chinese New Year's Eve
The group was delayed in Taihua Mountain for a day and night, during which Shi Yunyang explained that although Lin Ze was a little surprised, it seemed to be expected. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoSince the Taihuaguan Seven Obsidian Disaster was caused, the strength of the current Taihuaguan has been greatly damaged, even if he vigorously saves it, it is still a lot worse than in the heyday. Fortunately, the demons did not come to fight again, and he felt a little at ease, but after all, it was still a hidden danger that was difficult to eliminate. Therefore, this thing can only be a disaster for staying in Taihuaguan, and when he heard that Shi Yunyang needed this thing to open the seal, he did not hesitate at all, and agreed to offer the obsidian stone.
The third obsidian stone was successfully obtained, and everyone was ready to take their leave the next day. In the past few days, they were in a hurry, and before they knew it, it was close to Chinese New Year's Eve, Han Lun and Yu'er were a little homesick, and the group of five people set off for Chang'an City, Yu'er and Han Lun went to visit the old Linghu Gong, and Shi Yunyang and Ran Qingluo went back to Shangguan's mansion. Luo Xiaocheng still couldn't hold on to the official family, and went to the city to find an inn to settle in.
Shi Ran and the others returned to Shangguan Mansion, and along the way, every family was extremely busy, killing pigs and slaughtering sheep, and all year round, just for Zhang Luo's reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve tomorrow. Chang'an City has lost the bleak atmosphere, the red paper dragons hanging everywhere on the streets are endless, the streets are full of people, and a string of firecrackers has been hung in front of every house. Although it is not Chinese New Year's Eve, the atmosphere of the New Year is already very strong.
When the two came to the gate of Shangguan Mansion, they saw that a red lantern had been set up in front of the door, and the couplets in front of the door had also been renewed. When Shi Yunyang pushed the door in, he found that Shangguan Tingzhi was directing his subordinates to arrange the plaque in the courtyard.
"Big brother. Shi Yunyang called him when he walked in.
Shangguan Tingzhi turned around, his eyes round in shock. "Second brother, you're back!"
"Yes, I haven't been at home for the New Year for two years, and this year it happened to be close, and we rescued it. He smiled, and Shangguan Tingzhi hugged his broad shoulders excitedly, compared to his burly figure, his eldest brother looked much more delicate.
"Miss Ran also came along, it's really good. Shangguan Tingzhi smiled and said apologetically: "In the past, I still hope that Miss Ran Haihan, my distant cousin, I have sent him back to his hometown, I am really sorry." ”
Ran Tianluo knew that he was talking about the cousin surnamed Lin betraying their whereabouts, and if he didn't mention it, he would have almost forgotten about it. He smiled faintly and said, "Lord Shangguan doesn't have to be polite. Adults can't be blamed for this. ”
Shangguan Tingzhi smiled with relief and said, "Father and mother must be very happy to see you come back. This year, we can finally get together as a family. When he said this, he didn't exclude Ran Tianluo at all, and it seemed that he had accepted this future brother and sister from the bottom of his heart.
"Didn't you start going to Zhangluo dragon and lion dances at this time in previous years, why are you so idle this year?" asked Shi Yunyang.
Shangguan Tingzhi was taken aback and said, "Do you remember what happened before?" Shi Yunyang nodded, and Shangguan Tingzhi couldn't help but stroking his palms and celebrating. He laughed and said, "It's a good thing, it's a good thing! You kid, you haven't forgotten this home!" He was overjoyed for a moment, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist.
He turned around, pretended to command the servants on the ladder, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said: "Isn't Chang'an City in trouble this year, my father took most of the family's money to disaster relief, and the family is in need. Our family is not much different from ordinary people. ”
Shi Yunyang said: "Money is not a problem, the two of us still have a lot." I'll hand over to the account office in a while, and I can't be too tight for the New Year. ”
Shangguan Tingzhi said with a smile: "You don't care about these things, although the family is poor, it won't be impossible to open the pot." After all, with such a big Shangguan Mansion, you still have to keep money for the internal and external expenses, and it will not be a problem for the New Year. ”
Shi Yunyang nodded and said, "It's okay, then big brother, you are busy, let's just go and see our father ourselves." ”
Shangguan Tingzhi said: "Okay, then I'll go and inform Erniang and Sanniang, every time you kid goes home, it's a great joy." ”
The two turned the corner of the room and went straight to the study to see Shangguan Yi. When he went, Shangguan Yi was still writing the recital at the desk, and he didn't even notice it until the two of them retreated from the door. I haven't seen my father for more than half a year, but now I see him again, but I feel that he seems to have aged more, his temples are gray, and he has to stop and rest for a while.
Their sudden appearance made the half-hundred-hundred-man rejoice. When he laughed, it seemed that the wrinkles on his entire face had smoothed out a lot.
"I thought you wouldn't be back again this year, but it's okay, it's okay, and I'm finally worried about this family. ”
Shi Yunyang said: "I've always been worried about this family, how dare I forget." But there are some things that I can't help myself. To be able to go home at this time is actually a luxury for us. ”
Shangguan Yi sighed and said, "I understand." It's not easy for you. I don't blame you, this small family is not important, there must be peace in your heart, that is great ambition. However, he suddenly changed the tone and said, "Since there is this blessing this year, it is also the favor of God." Miss Ran is not an outsider, so let's stay together for the New Year. ”
After chatting for a while, Shi Ran and the others went out of the study door.
Shi Yunyang said: "Let's go and call Brother Luo back tomorrow." If the family is good, they haven't spent the New Year together, and the opportunity is rare. ”
Ran Tianluo opened his hand with a smile and said, "It's just that your father and your eldest brother said so, why are you here, whoever follows you is a family." ”
Shi Yunyang said: "This is not up to you. Sooner or later, we will be a family. Naturally, they won't treat you like an outsider. ”
"When the world is open, it's impossible to say what you say now. ”
Shi Yunyang smiled silently, suddenly took her hand, and said, "I'll take you to a place." ”
When the two came to the back hall, they saw that this place was not as lively as the front yard, it was quiet and cold, and there were bursts of Sanskrit singing from time to time in a room in the corner, and wisps of sandalwood came into the nose, and they felt even more peaceful.
The two of them walked into the shrine, turned the screen, and saw the tablet in front of them shrouded in sandalwood candles. On the side, another old monk was knocking on the wooden fish and reciting the Lotus Sutra. The two of them have not affected him in the slightest.
Shi Yunyang stepped forward and lit three incense sticks, bowed down three times, and inserted them into the incense burner. The soot from the incense burner has never been broken, and now it has accumulated a thick stack.
"Dumping, this is my mother. Shi Yunyang said, "The last time I came back, I couldn't remember what she looked like, but now I remember." For me, before I met you, she was the best person in the world for me. If there's one thing I regret in my life, it's that I didn't get to see her again when she died. ”
"Since she loves you so much, she won't blame you. ”
"Of course, my mother is a very docile woman, so docile that she has no opinions. There is no quarrel with the world for a lifetime, as long as I like it, she likes it. She never seemed to have anything to like. I don't know if eating fast and reciting Buddha is the life she really wants, maybe it's just a helpless move to escape from the world. He turned around and said, "So, what I like is what she likes, and my mother will definitely like you." ”
Shi Yunyang turned around and lit three incense sticks and handed them to her gently. Ran Tianluo smiled faintly, took it with both hands, stepped forward, inserted the incense candle into the incense burner, lowered his body, and kowtowed on the futon three times.
In the Linghu Mansion on the other side of Chang'an City, there is no such a harmonious scene at this moment. Han Lun and Yu'er returned to the mansion, but unexpectedly, Linghu Gong made a slap of accusation against Han Lun.
On the second day of their marriage, Yu'er had an accident. When she came back later, she had no memory. At that time, Han Lun no longer cared about etiquette, so he took Yu'er out to sea directly, and it took more than half a year to leave. It was also the day when the young couple should return to the door, so the fox man couldn't wait for someone to come, so he sent someone to Yangzhou to ask, and this question only learned that they had suffered a change.
When the fox man was old, he only got this girl, and he regarded it as a pearl in his palm. In this way, he was naturally anxious and angry, and he fell seriously ill at that time. When the Han family in Yangzhou heard this letter, they hurriedly sent people to condole, but they were all bombarded back by the angry Linghu Gong. Because of this, the two families were disliked and did not interact with each other.
Today, the two of them suddenly returned, which made the fox gong's heart angry again, and in his anger, he even smashed a set of purple sand tea sets that he cherished very much on weekdays. Yu'er finally persuaded her, and Han Lun had to wait outside the door, not allowing him to enter a single step.
And so on until sunset. Linghu Yu'er also went out, and Han Lun hurriedly asked, "Has your father-in-law been deflated?"
Yu'er sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's not that easy." But he didn't let us spend the New Year here, so he drove us back to Yangzhou. said that if her daughter is married, there is no reason to spend the New Year in her mother's house. Let us come back after the New Year, and he will have to settle accounts with you. ”
The corners of Han Lun's mouth twitched, and he said, "If you think about it like this, you will be a little sad next year." ”
"What should we do, my father has never been so resolute, I'm afraid I can't screw him. ”
Han Lun thought for a moment and said, "Now my words don't have much weight. But I think what my father-in-law said makes sense, so I'll listen to your father. If we can spare time in the next year, we will come back and suffer. ”
"When is it leaving, now?"
Han Lun said: "Let's go to Shangguan's house and say hello to Brother Shi." Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve. They should stay in Chang'an for the New Year. Let's go back to Yangzhou first, we should be able to arrive tomorrow. ”
Yu'er looked at the door behind her helplessly, and said helplessly: "That's all there is to do." ”
