It is said that Xue Baoqin had not arrived at Jia's house for a long time, and heard that Baochai went to the great illusion in her dream and slept for three days and three nights in a row. She was shocked and eager to see Baochai, but because Madam Mei was sick at that time, she was inconvenient to go out and wait until Madam Mei got better, and she had to take care of her son-in-law entering the examination. Until Madam Mei moved into her small apartment, there was nothing to do at home, so she had to take a break.
That day, I came to Rong Mansion and met Mrs. Wang first, and then went to Yihong Courtyard to look for Baochai.
As soon as we met, we asked about Taixu Illusion. Baochai told him that Baoqin had heard it. He was very surprised and talked about the newly made Begonia poem. Baoqin smiled and said: Your Begonia poem is still done after Lan Ge'er. The new couple returned to the ninth year. The begonia was in full bloom. The in-laws took this topic to test him. He made a seven-character poem on the spot, and there was a sentence that was "Heavy blessings to become a life-long makeup". Everyone said this was a good omen. Sure enough, he soon let it go, and now he has been promoted to come in again. If you do not do it as good as him, it is a joke. Baochai said: This is a coincidence. We also made the seven-yang rhyme, but we mean the Taixu Illusion. We will never be the same as him. Baoqin then wanted to read the poem. Baochai said: Even I have no foundation, it is all in Sanyatou. You have to read it. Go to Qiushuangzhai with you. Baoqin said:I'm about to talk to my third sister. If my sister is fine, let's go
The two sisters went to Tanchun together. Baoqin first asked Tanchun, and asked: Does brother-in-law have a family letter? How is the military affairs at this time? Tanchun said: The big stock has been flat, but I haven't seen Zhu Yi yet, so I'm almost there. In this half month, Baoqin said: I'm here to read the poem, where is your manuscript? Tanchun took out a piece of ice and snow paper, and wrote a stroke of Chu. He asked him that it was copied by a waiter, and praised him: I'm the third sister, and the strong general has no weak soldiers. I don't know when he practiced it? Baochai smiled and said: He can also draw a bow and shoot targets. If he pretends to be a boy, he is full of civil and military talents.
Tanchun smiled and said: That was a fun show in the coastal defense yamen. How can it be considered as if it were?
Baoqin opened the poem and found that the first song was the original sing of Tanchun Baoqin:
Hearing the truth, worshiping the green seal, willing to teach the mandarin ducks to lose their youth
The golden pen is divided into dreams, and the silver candle is full of passion for makeup
The girl refining sand and returning to the colorful sleeves, and the jade concubine dyed the clouds with wine
The original Xu Donghuang series of soft silk is the Taoist dynasty
After reading it, I said: This original song is very good, there are flowers and some people, and I am so delicate and ironed that I am convinced and fell to the ground! Tanchun said: There is still good things to come later. My song is just a throwing brick to attract jade. Baoqin continued to read it, and Xiangyun and Zuo said:
Jiangdu's new heat returns to the soul fragrance, breaking smile on the east wind and dou Qian's makeup
The beautiful woman in the Western Palace made her sleeves, and the fairy in the Qing Dynasty made her clothes
It's like sleeping in a shallow oriole, if you're crazy about love, you're crazy about horses
The photo of Zhongling is left in the lottery, and the spring is still beside the Old Francisco Hall
Tanchun said: Look at how precious the two lines "Yuns make sleeves" and "Brobe make skirts" are so precious. The crazy rhyme is even more vivid. I really should have pulled off my song. Baochai said: Your song is not weak, so why isn't the couplet "Cai Nu" and "Yu Concubine" expensive?
Baoqin said: Everyone is his own way of writing. It seems that his sentence "sleeping lightly" and "more affection" are more meaningful. The "flowing Ying" is probably the Huang Yinger who serves her sister. It seems that it is Baochai's and the poem written by:
Jincheng Fengyue Fei Pingzhang, Xianguo Chen Fang takes over the whole country
Ten-zhang Qiping Spring Brings Dreams, a pair of pink mirrors at night to make-up
Tanchun saw this sentence from the other side and smiled: The poem of the second sister-in-law is simply a dream of her own, which is a poem about flowers? I saw a couplet of "Spring Dreams" and "Ye Lingzhuang", as if I saw you and Lin Yatou in the same room. Baoqin said: The poem of the poem of things should have meaning, and this is not off topic. Look at the second half again:
Candle plate tears flow red lush pillow, fat combined with fragrance cage green robe
Remembering the shadow of the jade concubine ringing and wearing, and the flowers and rain fall on the empty corridor at night
Tanchun said: This song is good all over, and only when he experiences the situation can he write it. Baoqin also praised Tanchun for asking him to do it together. Baoqin said: I saw these songs, where can I still dare to write it? Tanchun said: It would be great if you wrote the red plum poem last time
If you dare not do it, who dares? When you talk about the Peony Club, Baoqin was even happier when she heard it, she said: If the club period is set, as long as I am notified, I will come. Tanchun and his sisters visited the garden with their sisters again.
That night, Baoqin also lived in Yihongyuan and talked about poetry with Baochai, which aroused the popularity of poetry. She also wrote a poem about begonia on Xue Tao's note for Baochai to see. The poem was:
The fairy country has its origins and the sky wind blows to the cloud corridor
The brocade banners shine on the shadows are priceless in spring, and the crimson candle leaves traces and fragrance at night
A few days of face with golden geese post, a dream of rain and bird rooster
The red screen says that it is extremely prosperous, but when you look back, you will always be broken
Baochai read it and said: Your poem has a different artistic conception, and the rhyme is even more calm and I can't say it myself. You told me all of them. The next day I copied it and took it to Tanchun to see Tanchun and appreciate it. Jin Yan and Bi Ji said: The allusion in front of him is particularly clear, and he really came from behind.
Baoqin was about to go back, Tanchun kept him and Baochai and Xiangyun together for a day in Qiushuangzhai.
At this time, the begonia in Yihongyuan was still in full bloom and not yet faded. Baochai also asked Tanchun Xiangyun and Baoqin to enjoy the flowers. But the Mei family sent a letter and said that Mei Hanlin had transferred the school student Baoqin to go back to congratulate her parents-in-law, so the flower appreciation situation could only be stopped.
In the blink of an eye, it was Mrs. Wang’s birthday. On that day, many princesses, princesses and edicts came. They all set up squads in Jiayin Hall in the garden to entertain their family members. They only placed squads in the living room. Because Jia Zheng did not like extravagance, there were no dramas and juggling Baochai, Tanchun, Ping'er, etc., and they had to pick up and drop off people when they came and went, and they had to send a drink and had a squat for a while. They were busy for two days.
The weather is getting warmer, and the peonies in the red fragrance garden have bloomed one after another. Tanchun has stopped, so he asked Baochai and Xiangyun to see the flowers together. They saw that the rockery of Taihu stone in the area was built into a flower platform, with a dense tent deep bushes, as bright as a few clusters of Zhao pink that bloomed first, each flower was as big as a plate, and before it was close, he could smell the fragrance before it was close, there were some buds, and there were some green heart white, lotus silk skirts, golden dragon yellow, ice cover red clouds, two Qiao fought for beauty, and also had half of Tanchun, Baochai and Xiangyun circled the flowers, and admired Baochai in detail, saying: This flower was planted by oneself, and it looked particularly affectionate. Tanchun said: Flowers are not waiting for anyone, we have to get along with him, and we have to wait for the old rice-flavored farmer to come back, I am afraid that they will all thank you and get up the club, so I will do it.That day, I asked Baochai Xiangyun to Qiushuangzhai to discuss the matter. The clerk brought a letter from the family to Tanchun. The letter said that Aunt Zhou sent the bandit leader Wu Dasong, Bai Sheng came to Beijing, and calculated that the day after tomorrow, Tanchun would arrive and coughed: This poetry club cannot be established. There are only two days in front of me. I have to go back to clean up the house. I gave the letter to Baochai Xiangyun. Everyone felt disappointed.
Mrs. Wang sent someone to Baochai and said: Your sister-in-law and Lan'er have already set off and returned. The house in Daoxiang Village has been demolished into a hall. The fan has to be installed again and cleaned up for them. Otherwise, how can they live there?It was also revealed that Jia Lan's letter was used by the order. Just as he was about to set off, he received an order and ordered him to act as the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice to go to Zhejiang to investigate the incident first. Jia Lan only brought two members of the imperial envoy to Zhejiang for more than 20 days. He found out the case and reported it and then went to Jiangxi, and led his family all the way north. It was expected that he would come to Baochai at about the same time as Aunt Zhou to take the order. He hurried to Daoxiang Village and supervised the servants and the women to set up the house.Two days later, Li Wan and Jia Lan and his wife arrived. Everyone met and talked about their relationship after parting. They were all happy and busy with cooking and unloading, and socializing for guests. After several days, the exam was released. Mei Chenghan and Zhen Baoyu were all won. There was also a celebration. Not only did they not start a club, but they were busy spending time in the peony flowers. They never had a good reward. Then Aunt Zhou went to Rong Mansion in person. When he met Mrs. Jia Zheng, he talked about the military affairs being closed very quickly, and there was also the will of the people and God.
Zhou Qiong's team chased and suppressed the evil bandits until the south of Dayu Ridge. The road was full of dangerous cliffs and dangerous paths, with dense forests and deep forests, and it was easy to hide the bandit leader Wu Dasong. Bai Sheng took some remaining bandits to flee east and west, and was repeatedly chased by the official army. He siege and swept them together. He was all tricked by him. Fortunately, the people in the mountains were pure and were full of evil. On that day, they fled to a village in Caoling Mountain. They were deceived into the fortress by the people and brought them into the camp. Zhou Qiongxun was clearly the main offender. He was unconscious and was ecstatic and immediately heard that the people were rewarded and rewarded. He gave silver medals and used the eight hundred-mile post seal to jump into the comments. He sent his son and two trusted officials to dismiss Wu. Bai's two offenders entered Beijing. This was an extra cautious meaning.
The emperor received a good news first in the Taohua Temple Palace. Tianyan was very happy and wrote a poem "Wen Jie Zhixi". A few days later, the Ministry of War of the Cefu Office would report to release the offender to Beijing. The emperor set the imperial gate period and raised the offender on the Wufeng Tower of the Wumen Gate. The bandit leader was originally a mountain and sea gangster. Once he saw Tianwei, he was so scared that he immediately took his confession and took it to Xicheng City. He was sentenced to death. Jia Lan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, monitored the executioner Jia Lan and led the prison van to the Xicheng Vegetable Market. He watched the executioner General Wu and Bai two offenders suspended their heads in public and then returned to the court to reply.
The next day, Zhou Qiongxi was awarded the first-class Zhongding Hou.
Yizilong Qingmen Guard Zhou Ming was named the third-rank Weiyi Duwei Zhen Yinggui Xi was named the first-class Xiangcheng Bo Jia Zhen was awarded the title of the first-class Xiangcheng Bo, and was awarded the title of the first-class Dingxiang Bo, and was appointed as the governor of Xiangnan.
Yizi's imperial guard Jia Rong was named the third-rank Guoyong Duwei general, and some of them were also granted the title of the male commander and the cavalry officer. They could not write this order, and everyone in the court was happy.
The princes and ministers and ordinary ministers all went to Rongning to congratulate each other, and there were many high cars and horses, just because Jia Zhen and his son were not in Beijing. Jia Zheng was simple and did not hold a banquet to pay the banquet. He was scheduled to go to the ancestral hall to pay tribute to Jia She and Jia Lan, and Jia Zheng led Jia Lan to the court for five drums. After thanking him, he went to the clan hall. From the generation of the dynasty, Jia Daixiu, Jia Dairu to the generation of the cherryman, there were a total of sixty or seventy people. Jia Ren, who was waiting in the ancestral hall to watch the ancestral hall, replied: The eldest master and the second master and the Xiaolan, arrived.
Everyone greeted each other, and each had a conversation and waited for the banquet to be prepared, and then they would go on a ceremony together
At this time, the elixir inside and outside the ancestral hall was fresh, fragrant incense swaying green dragons, and fire phoenixes. Only the sound of clothes and jade were heard. After the ceremony, I was looking at Liao. Suddenly, a gust of divine wind blew from the shrine, as if there were golden swords and iron horses flying towards the sky. Everyone was shocked Jia Dairu: Although the gods are far and near, you can see that the gods are prominent this time, can you say that they are not Lai Gelai Xin? Jia Chi said: The ancestors are always concerned about their descendants, let alone the Duke of our country was born as a hero, and died as a god. I think Mr. Zhen’s success this time is all thanks to the ancestors’ moyou! Everyone is still discussing.
Seeing that the sacrifice was over, Jia She and Jia Zheng took Jia Lan back to the Xifu Rongning two governments, and they also followed him to the Xifu, congratulating Jia She and Jia Zheng, and let them sit down and talk. They said nothing more than saying some words of heavenly kindness and deeds. Jia Zheng touched his thoughts again and said: It was not that I was proud of you, but I was deeply afraid of you since I was obeying the official position. That year, the two governments were investigated. If the crime was serious, if it was not the emperor's kindness and the protection of our ancestors, would it be great? Fortunately, Brother Zhen could know how to reform his mistakes and strive for success and progress, so that he had this opportunity. From now on, don't forget to be afraid when raiding the house to punish him. Don't indulge in your eyes and knowing success or failure. It's just a matter of turning hands and turning hands, and there is nothing accurate. Everyone agreed to Jia Zheng and said to Jia Lan:You have only been an official for a few years, and now you are considered an official! But you know how many years your grandfather has been in the Ministry of Justice and suffered several troubles before he has reached this position. Don’t think that you are an extraordinary talent. You don’t fly high or fall seriously. The Ministry of Justice is not as good as other yamen. The case is too heavy and the punishment is strict. Once something goes wrong, I’m afraid that even the roots will be removed! From today on, you must read the laws and regulations carefully. If you don’t understand, you will ask the old officials humbly for advice. Don’t look at their small officials. People have real experience. What do you know? Jia Lanjingjin took the order and the branch’s children left. Jia She laughed and said: The second master is really redundant. According to what you say, there will be no comfortable life?
Jia Lan said: Grandpa taught a good lesson. After listening to Jia Zheng's words, he worked hard to get out of the yamen every day and studied the laws in the study. Even Mei asked him to write poems and lyrics, but he didn't do much.
That day, when I came back from the Ministry of Justice, I went to Mrs. Jia Zheng to pay An An to Mrs. Wang to see him wearing an old short jacket, and said, "Lan'er, you have become a minister, don't you make a new one?" Jia Lan said: This one was given to me by my grandfather when I went to Liaodong, saying that it was worn by the Duke in the military camp! When I wore him, I remembered how my ancestors were sincere in serving the country. I couldn't let go of building a career like Mr. Zhen to be worthy of this jacket. Mrs. Wang said: Speaking of making achievements, it is a misfortune of the country. Don't expect that I only hope that you can trust the blessing of the court and be a peaceful and peaceful official for the rest of your life! Jia Zheng said: Lan'er, what have you done in your yamen recently? Jia Lan picked up a few important things, and there was an incest case of Lai Shiyuan, the grandson of Lai Da, in the inner case.
It turned out that Lai Da had only one son and one grandson, and it was a pampered that Lai Shangrong had only a bad idea in his stomach. He knew how to teach his children? At this time, Lai Shiyuan had grown to eighteen years old and became lustful. He had an affair with his uncle and sister. He fled to Juju, Ping'anzhou, and was reported to Juzhu, who was implicated and found an affair, and was sentenced to a crime. Mrs. Wang said: Lai Da raised many daughters, but only this grandson passed on to generations. Isn't this a failure?
Jia Zhengdao: Even this kind of beastly behavior is embarrassing. I’m sorry, we are second to you, just because there are other hidden evils, otherwise why would that happen? I think the way of heaven is terrifying!
Jia Lan talked about the investigation of the Jinyiwei Hall official in Rongfu. Now he was promoted to the Yansui Jiedushi. Because of the many untrue reclamation incidents, he was impeached by the imperial envoy and investigated and handed over to the Ministry of Justice for the crime. After hearing the prison in the past two days, Jia Zheng hurriedly said: Lan'er, do you think that Zhao Tang official has a rift with us? He is also doing the movable property and now he is in trouble. If there is a law that can take care of him, you might as well take a lenient step. Even if you can't take care of him, you should also be mourning. If you look at someone falling into the well and then take the blame, that is a villain! Jia Lan said: The officials of each department have also discussed this case, and the worst is not imprisonment.
Mrs. Wang said: Has the case for the second uncle of the Sun family been decided? Jia Lan said: The day before yesterday that the officer of the trial office came to ask for instructions, and the grandson only said that we were close relatives, so they should avoid them knowing this friendship, so they would be lenient. But I hope that the matter will be misleading and secretly can be considered our care. Jia Zhengdao: Your second uncle is not a very bad person, he has only developed a bad temper. He has no one in everything, and his children from our aristocratic families should learn from him.
Then he said: Your third uncle is back, have you always met? Why didn't Rong'er come back? Jia Lan said: I heard that I have gone to the position of Mr. Zhen again. Jia Zheng said: Being a young master in the foreign yamen is not a good thing. I have done a foreign yamen twice. I never take my family. I am afraid that my children will learn bad things. If you go to write, I will advise him to come back. Jia Lan agreed and stood for a while. Seeing that Mrs. Jia Zheng had nothing to say, he left.
When he returned to Daoxiangcun, he met Li Wan. When Li Wan asked him how he came back today, Jia Lan said to both the Q&A and Jia Zheng in Shangfang and Jia Zheng's Q&A Li Wan said: The master has been loyal all his life, so you young people should learn a little. When Jia Lan returned to the room, Mei was taken back to her parents' home by Mrs. Mei. She only pleaded with Yun writing there and asked Jia Lan to teach him to use a pen. She could not help but give a careful guide to Jia Lan's business work recently. She still has such leisure and leisure, which is something outsiders would not know.
But Tanchun was not allowed to live in the Jia Mansion because his son-in-law returned to Beijing. He was only arranged for the family matters. When he came back that day, he went to the garden to look for Baochai and talked. Xiangyun was also in Yihongyuan. The three of them talked for a while and Tanchun was active. They pulled Baochai and Xiangyun out for a walk and said: The weather was hot at this time, but the places near the water were cool. The three of them went to the Lou Xiangxie together. They saw that the new lotus from the water were paved like a cover. The windows near the water were all open, and the Hunan curtain was hanging down, which was very quiet. Everyone sat down against the railing. Baochai said: I turned the roots of the lotus this year, and it was even cleaner than in previous years.
Tanchun said: The lotus leaves are so big, I have never known what to do, I forgot about the season. I have arrived here today, as if I woke up in my eyes. Xiangyun said: The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, so we also want to ask some things, please invite my wife, the concubine and two sisters-in-law, now Brother Zhen has made up for it, and maybe when will I take my family to take care of my family? Baochai said: I think so too, I can only invite them to stroll around the garden. What's the point? As long as I ask the girls to drive the boat and play with a slight ten-day slight ten-day slightly. Xiangyun said: I also want to have a slightly ten-day slightly. It's better to add two more dragon boats while it's still early this time, pack up the two old dragon boats in the dock, and ask the drivers to practice for about ten days?
Tanchun said: Are there dragon boats in this dock? I haven't seen you before. You are really a geography ghost! Xiangyun said: I also heard Cuilu say that I went to see it myself that day. Sure enough, there are some, but unfortunately I have been useless for many years and they were all broken. Baochai said: It's easy to pack it up. Let's wait for a while and ask the manager to do it. Xiangyun said: If your brother saw it, I don't know how happy it would be! Tanchun said: I remembered that there was a lie that year, saying that the Empress would still be left with the rest of the old lady and Mrs. Feng, and said: "What's the fun and fun in April and May? You can only play two dragon boats!" Later, I didn't hear it. Maybe it was the ones that were prepared at that time. Baochai said:In this way, he also vented his anger for Ou Xiangxie. The fourth girl gave this name in vain and never invited everyone to visit his introverted temperament. However, such a good place was almost destroyed by him! That night, Tanchun returned and advised Xiangyun Baochai.
That day, Li Wan went to see Aunt Li. Xiangyun had never been able to hold back when she was not at home. When she saw Li Wan the next day, she told him that Li Wan smiled and said: You really know how to play, but I am in Jiangxi. I am locked up in the yamen all day long. There is a custom of dragon boat racing. Any platform in front of him took their family to watch dragon boats. It happened that those swimming groups fought each other and caused human lives. The platform was also dropped by ginseng, but Lan'er issued a notice. Xiangyun smiled and said: Do you only care about being officials? We idle people are more comfortable than you.
Two days later, Li Wen, Li Qi and Xue Baoqin came to celebrate with Li Wan, and then sat down at Baochai. Baochai made an appointment with them in person. There was rare such excitement in the capital. After hearing this, they were very happy and agreed to come.
In early May, the dragon boat was ready, Baochai returned to Mrs. Wang first. When she returned to Xue's house that day, she invited Aunt Xue to meet You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in person. She sent someone out of the city to pick up Qiaojie and Liu Laolao. She asked Ping'er to come back in person. Just two days, Mrs. Xing was angry with her aunts and had liver disease. Not to mention that Qiaojie had not returned to Jia's house for a long time. She heard that there was a dragon boat to see, so she was even happier. She got up early in the morning to finish washing and celebrate the festival for her mother-in-law. So she rushed to Liu Laolao to combed her hair and dressed up, put on a pomegranate flower, and brought some new cherries, cucumbers, apricots, and wild vegetables. She got into the car and rushed into the city. When she arrived at Rongguo Mansion, she first asked Ping'er to talk home. Fang Tong went to Mrs. Wang to pay homage to the festival and said: Grandma, are you still tough? Are you here to watch the fun?Liu Laolao said: In the countryside, I only heard that the emperor had played dragon boats in his home, but I never saw the blessing of siring my aunt this time. I opened my eyes. Qiaojie smiled and said: Madam, look at grandma, who is old and loves to dress up. It’s not good to wear this one, and it’s not suitable to wear that one. I said, “Didn’t my aunt give you two sets? He remembered that it fits very well, but the sleeves are longer. Liu Laolao smiled and said: When I was young, I was also easy to dress up. Now I have to make a coffin, so why are you dressed up! But when I got to the city, I was dressed too ragged and asked the butlers to laugh at me. If it weren’t for the second grandma giving me this set of clothes, it would be difficult! Ping'er smiled and said: This is also half old, it’s better than your country clothes.
As they were talking, Tanchun and Baoqin were here, and before they could sit down, Li Wan and Baochai accompanied Youshi Hu to the Shangfang. Everyone had a chance to meet Liu Laolao and asked him well.
Grandma Liu said: I heard that the old man and third aunt in the East Mansion were all given official positions, and the eldest grandma's brother was also promoted. This was really a great joy! You Shi smiled and said: What about the great grandma's official position? First-rank people don't have to worry about anything. They were promoted to the official position, but they were earned by their lives. Grandma Liu was so scared that she just chanted Buddha's name! Tanchun pointed to Baoqin and said: This aunt Mei is the wife of Xinhanlin, so grandma won't congratulate him?
Liu Laolao said: I see this aunt looks weirdly handsome, she looks lucky. Everyone laughed.
Mrs. Wang said: Let's go to the garden, I'm afraid someone will be waiting there
As he said that, he walked to the Grand View Garden with everyone, Baochai and Ping'er advised Mrs. Wang to sit in the sedan chair. Mrs. Wang only said that the weather was good, and I also used this to disperse the flower silence. Then he met Aunt Xue holding the little girl. Xing Xiuyan followed him to see Mrs. Wang and said with a smile: "Miss, it's so early today, I hurried to stay behind." Grandma Liu said: "Miss, I've always been good?" That year, I had a big grandson, and I recently heard that she had a granddaughter. It's such a blessing."
Mrs. Wang said: Why don’t the concubine bring her brothers and sisters to play? Aunt Xue said: When they are here, they are also furious and have breasts and Baochan at home watching.
Tanchun smiled and said: That sister is our second grandmother Xiaohui, why did she come to the door without posting it?
At one time, I arrived at Ouxiangxie. I saw Xichun, Xiangyun, Li Wen, and Li Qi all leaned against the railings and watched fish. Xiangyun, who also threw some buns to attract fish, saw these people first and said, "No wonder we have been waiting for the past half day. It turned out that we had all gone to the upper room. When Aunt Xue saw Sister Wen Qi, she asked her in-laws why she didn't come?" Li Wen said: Yesterday, my mother said she wanted to come. She was suffering from a cold. Today, she invited the doctor to take medicine. Everyone confessed to Li Qi and Li Qi's newly married. Li Qi was still a little shy. She couldn't answer that Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue had just sat in a chat. Qiu Wen hugged Brother Hui, her breasts were holding Brother Zhu, Bihen, Ying'er, Feng'er and other girls all followed her. It was very lively. Mei took Brother Quan again, and the girls were also following her breasts.
Li Wan said: The place here is narrow and cannot accommodate many people, so why not place it in the Aojing Pavilion? Baochai said: The master and the master are there, and the general Qingkes are there. Although it is narrow here, you still have to see it, there is nothing to block your eyes.
The girls and women arranged the tables, and everyone asked Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and Lao Laolao to sit on the table, followed by Youshi and Li Wan, and the sisters also sat on two or three dishes. Two colorful boats came beside the Qingyezhu. The boat was full of peacocks and the feathers of the pheasants were tied into various colors. A group of girls sat on the boat, playing thin ten rounds followed by two dragon boats, one green dragon and the other yellow dragon. They all set up color pavilions, hung embroidered flags, and countless small nails were nailed around them.The mirror is dazzling and the colorful boat is bulging. The two boats dance back and forth, and there is another small boat, carrying a bright pearl ball, either distance or welcome, or together, and performing a bead swallowing drama. The women all know how to water, wearing colorful oil silk clothes, sometimes performing phoenix Huáng spreading their wings, sometimes performing a kite rolling over, doing all kinds of plays, everyone on the seat was fascinated, and the brothers clapped and laughed.
Xiangyun asked Cuilu to take out many carved bamboo things, all of which were colored. The white ones were melons, the red ones were oranges, the green ones were gourds, the purple ones were eggplants, and the yellow ones were papayas. There were about a dozen, and there were also branches and leaves. They twisted the spiral stems like real, put the teeth of each person's name in it, and said: Throw this thing down, ask them to fish for water, and whoever took out the fish will drink. Tanchun, Baoqin said that Baochai took Xiangyun's papaya carefully again, for fear that he would have any harm in secret. Grandma Liu said: Auntie, don't fiddle with me, I won't drink it, I'm drunk, and joked again. Ping'er smiled and said: Grandma, don't be afraid, are you fishing for yours? Cuilu, Ying'er threw those things down, swaying one by one to the bottom of the water.
It turns out that there is molten tin inside, and the weight is quite heavy
When I was young, the colorful boat bulged up again, and some drivers turned over in oil-silk clothes. After a bag of cigarettes, they took one to bring them up. Everyone saw it was Aunt Xue's Buddha's hand, so they gave it to him. Then, they caught another gourd, but it was Youshi's, and they also paid homage to him. Then they were Xing Xiuyan's lotus shower, Li Wen's flat fruit, and another orange and a small pumpkin, which was Tanchun and Baoqin's. Xiangyun all forced them to drink Tanchun and said: Why can't I catch Sister Shi alone? I'm afraid there are ghosts here? Xiangyun smiled and said: I'm not the only one who has not been caught. Besides, Sister Bao has already paid attention. Then you don't drink much, so why are you so timid?
You Shi said: What are you afraid of, third sister? Just one glass of wine. Xiangyun said: My sister-in-law is a countess, and she is a large number of people. I guess that cup is small. So she asked Cuilu to take the boxwood cup and it turned out that set of cups had been brought and placed on the small table next to it. It was Tanchun. Xiangyun wanted to make fun of Liu Laolao Cuilu and took it to the mat. Xiangyun raised the pots and filled them all, and said: If anyone caught this time, I have to drink this set.
Grandma Liu hurriedly left the seat and waved her hand: I've tried the benefits of that guy, I can't stand it, so I'll let my house go. When everyone heard this, they covered their hands with their hands and laughed at Tanchun. Xiangyun hurriedly walked up and forced Liu Laolao to sit on the mat. The drivers just caught an eggplant. Everyone saw that it was Grandma Liu Laolao's Xiangyun laughed and said: Grandma, this is nothing, I've drunk all the time. Grandma Liu said: If you drink these, I'll be drunk to death. Let me spare me. Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue also repeatedly pleaded for him. You said: I'll tell my grandma about love, just drink this sea of flowers. Grandma Liu couldn't pick up the boxwood sea, drank the purple eggplant in her hand in a gulp, and praised it carefully: How did he do it? It's the same as before.Before he could finish his sentence, the wine came up, and he felt dizzy and heartbeat. He hurriedly leaned on the bamboo couch beside the mat and said, "Aunt Shi, why bother to get my grandma drunk again!" Xiangyun smiled and said, "What's the point of drinking more? I want to drink, but I can't catch it." Tanchun said: It's a pity that there are leftover wine. If you have any, you can catch it. Start from that small cup, drink it all, and then collect the order.
Li Wan said: Everyone is not good at drinking, and they are all drunk, but what's the point? Tanchun said: You only be your old plum, don't worry about our defeat and success
Then he picked up a few more, and each of them drank in turn. Xiangyun also drank half a cup of wine. It was Yu Shi who refused to drink it again and again. Xiangyun, Tanchun and Baochai each made a small cup. You Shi asked Wenhua to bring up another big cup, and the rest was barely drunk.
It was already sunset in the trees. Everyone sat apart for a while. Baochai ordered Qiuwen to make tea and drink a glass of tea for Laolao Liu. The wine was a little relieved. Sister Qiao and Ping'er held him and went to Ping'er's room to rest. Mrs. Wang couldn't hold on, so she went upstairs with Aunt Xue to rest.
Here, Xiangyun Baochai still keeps everyone away and said: There is a light boat at night, which is even more interesting. I wonder how lively the light boat is? Let's listen to the next breakdown
That day, I came to Rong Mansion and met Mrs. Wang first, and then went to Yihong Courtyard to look for Baochai.
As soon as we met, we asked about Taixu Illusion. Baochai told him that Baoqin had heard it. He was very surprised and talked about the newly made Begonia poem. Baoqin smiled and said: Your Begonia poem is still done after Lan Ge'er. The new couple returned to the ninth year. The begonia was in full bloom. The in-laws took this topic to test him. He made a seven-character poem on the spot, and there was a sentence that was "Heavy blessings to become a life-long makeup". Everyone said this was a good omen. Sure enough, he soon let it go, and now he has been promoted to come in again. If you do not do it as good as him, it is a joke. Baochai said: This is a coincidence. We also made the seven-yang rhyme, but we mean the Taixu Illusion. We will never be the same as him. Baoqin then wanted to read the poem. Baochai said: Even I have no foundation, it is all in Sanyatou. You have to read it. Go to Qiushuangzhai with you. Baoqin said:I'm about to talk to my third sister. If my sister is fine, let's go
The two sisters went to Tanchun together. Baoqin first asked Tanchun, and asked: Does brother-in-law have a family letter? How is the military affairs at this time? Tanchun said: The big stock has been flat, but I haven't seen Zhu Yi yet, so I'm almost there. In this half month, Baoqin said: I'm here to read the poem, where is your manuscript? Tanchun took out a piece of ice and snow paper, and wrote a stroke of Chu. He asked him that it was copied by a waiter, and praised him: I'm the third sister, and the strong general has no weak soldiers. I don't know when he practiced it? Baochai smiled and said: He can also draw a bow and shoot targets. If he pretends to be a boy, he is full of civil and military talents.
Tanchun smiled and said: That was a fun show in the coastal defense yamen. How can it be considered as if it were?
Baoqin opened the poem and found that the first song was the original sing of Tanchun Baoqin:
Hearing the truth, worshiping the green seal, willing to teach the mandarin ducks to lose their youth
The golden pen is divided into dreams, and the silver candle is full of passion for makeup
The girl refining sand and returning to the colorful sleeves, and the jade concubine dyed the clouds with wine
The original Xu Donghuang series of soft silk is the Taoist dynasty
After reading it, I said: This original song is very good, there are flowers and some people, and I am so delicate and ironed that I am convinced and fell to the ground! Tanchun said: There is still good things to come later. My song is just a throwing brick to attract jade. Baoqin continued to read it, and Xiangyun and Zuo said:
Jiangdu's new heat returns to the soul fragrance, breaking smile on the east wind and dou Qian's makeup
The beautiful woman in the Western Palace made her sleeves, and the fairy in the Qing Dynasty made her clothes
It's like sleeping in a shallow oriole, if you're crazy about love, you're crazy about horses
The photo of Zhongling is left in the lottery, and the spring is still beside the Old Francisco Hall
Tanchun said: Look at how precious the two lines "Yuns make sleeves" and "Brobe make skirts" are so precious. The crazy rhyme is even more vivid. I really should have pulled off my song. Baochai said: Your song is not weak, so why isn't the couplet "Cai Nu" and "Yu Concubine" expensive?
Baoqin said: Everyone is his own way of writing. It seems that his sentence "sleeping lightly" and "more affection" are more meaningful. The "flowing Ying" is probably the Huang Yinger who serves her sister. It seems that it is Baochai's and the poem written by:
Jincheng Fengyue Fei Pingzhang, Xianguo Chen Fang takes over the whole country
Ten-zhang Qiping Spring Brings Dreams, a pair of pink mirrors at night to make-up
Tanchun saw this sentence from the other side and smiled: The poem of the second sister-in-law is simply a dream of her own, which is a poem about flowers? I saw a couplet of "Spring Dreams" and "Ye Lingzhuang", as if I saw you and Lin Yatou in the same room. Baoqin said: The poem of the poem of things should have meaning, and this is not off topic. Look at the second half again:
Candle plate tears flow red lush pillow, fat combined with fragrance cage green robe
Remembering the shadow of the jade concubine ringing and wearing, and the flowers and rain fall on the empty corridor at night
Tanchun said: This song is good all over, and only when he experiences the situation can he write it. Baoqin also praised Tanchun for asking him to do it together. Baoqin said: I saw these songs, where can I still dare to write it? Tanchun said: It would be great if you wrote the red plum poem last time
If you dare not do it, who dares? When you talk about the Peony Club, Baoqin was even happier when she heard it, she said: If the club period is set, as long as I am notified, I will come. Tanchun and his sisters visited the garden with their sisters again.
That night, Baoqin also lived in Yihongyuan and talked about poetry with Baochai, which aroused the popularity of poetry. She also wrote a poem about begonia on Xue Tao's note for Baochai to see. The poem was:
The fairy country has its origins and the sky wind blows to the cloud corridor
The brocade banners shine on the shadows are priceless in spring, and the crimson candle leaves traces and fragrance at night
A few days of face with golden geese post, a dream of rain and bird rooster
The red screen says that it is extremely prosperous, but when you look back, you will always be broken
Baochai read it and said: Your poem has a different artistic conception, and the rhyme is even more calm and I can't say it myself. You told me all of them. The next day I copied it and took it to Tanchun to see Tanchun and appreciate it. Jin Yan and Bi Ji said: The allusion in front of him is particularly clear, and he really came from behind.
Baoqin was about to go back, Tanchun kept him and Baochai and Xiangyun together for a day in Qiushuangzhai.
At this time, the begonia in Yihongyuan was still in full bloom and not yet faded. Baochai also asked Tanchun Xiangyun and Baoqin to enjoy the flowers. But the Mei family sent a letter and said that Mei Hanlin had transferred the school student Baoqin to go back to congratulate her parents-in-law, so the flower appreciation situation could only be stopped.
In the blink of an eye, it was Mrs. Wang’s birthday. On that day, many princesses, princesses and edicts came. They all set up squads in Jiayin Hall in the garden to entertain their family members. They only placed squads in the living room. Because Jia Zheng did not like extravagance, there were no dramas and juggling Baochai, Tanchun, Ping'er, etc., and they had to pick up and drop off people when they came and went, and they had to send a drink and had a squat for a while. They were busy for two days.
The weather is getting warmer, and the peonies in the red fragrance garden have bloomed one after another. Tanchun has stopped, so he asked Baochai and Xiangyun to see the flowers together. They saw that the rockery of Taihu stone in the area was built into a flower platform, with a dense tent deep bushes, as bright as a few clusters of Zhao pink that bloomed first, each flower was as big as a plate, and before it was close, he could smell the fragrance before it was close, there were some buds, and there were some green heart white, lotus silk skirts, golden dragon yellow, ice cover red clouds, two Qiao fought for beauty, and also had half of Tanchun, Baochai and Xiangyun circled the flowers, and admired Baochai in detail, saying: This flower was planted by oneself, and it looked particularly affectionate. Tanchun said: Flowers are not waiting for anyone, we have to get along with him, and we have to wait for the old rice-flavored farmer to come back, I am afraid that they will all thank you and get up the club, so I will do it.That day, I asked Baochai Xiangyun to Qiushuangzhai to discuss the matter. The clerk brought a letter from the family to Tanchun. The letter said that Aunt Zhou sent the bandit leader Wu Dasong, Bai Sheng came to Beijing, and calculated that the day after tomorrow, Tanchun would arrive and coughed: This poetry club cannot be established. There are only two days in front of me. I have to go back to clean up the house. I gave the letter to Baochai Xiangyun. Everyone felt disappointed.
Mrs. Wang sent someone to Baochai and said: Your sister-in-law and Lan'er have already set off and returned. The house in Daoxiang Village has been demolished into a hall. The fan has to be installed again and cleaned up for them. Otherwise, how can they live there?It was also revealed that Jia Lan's letter was used by the order. Just as he was about to set off, he received an order and ordered him to act as the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice to go to Zhejiang to investigate the incident first. Jia Lan only brought two members of the imperial envoy to Zhejiang for more than 20 days. He found out the case and reported it and then went to Jiangxi, and led his family all the way north. It was expected that he would come to Baochai at about the same time as Aunt Zhou to take the order. He hurried to Daoxiang Village and supervised the servants and the women to set up the house.Two days later, Li Wan and Jia Lan and his wife arrived. Everyone met and talked about their relationship after parting. They were all happy and busy with cooking and unloading, and socializing for guests. After several days, the exam was released. Mei Chenghan and Zhen Baoyu were all won. There was also a celebration. Not only did they not start a club, but they were busy spending time in the peony flowers. They never had a good reward. Then Aunt Zhou went to Rong Mansion in person. When he met Mrs. Jia Zheng, he talked about the military affairs being closed very quickly, and there was also the will of the people and God.
Zhou Qiong's team chased and suppressed the evil bandits until the south of Dayu Ridge. The road was full of dangerous cliffs and dangerous paths, with dense forests and deep forests, and it was easy to hide the bandit leader Wu Dasong. Bai Sheng took some remaining bandits to flee east and west, and was repeatedly chased by the official army. He siege and swept them together. He was all tricked by him. Fortunately, the people in the mountains were pure and were full of evil. On that day, they fled to a village in Caoling Mountain. They were deceived into the fortress by the people and brought them into the camp. Zhou Qiongxun was clearly the main offender. He was unconscious and was ecstatic and immediately heard that the people were rewarded and rewarded. He gave silver medals and used the eight hundred-mile post seal to jump into the comments. He sent his son and two trusted officials to dismiss Wu. Bai's two offenders entered Beijing. This was an extra cautious meaning.
The emperor received a good news first in the Taohua Temple Palace. Tianyan was very happy and wrote a poem "Wen Jie Zhixi". A few days later, the Ministry of War of the Cefu Office would report to release the offender to Beijing. The emperor set the imperial gate period and raised the offender on the Wufeng Tower of the Wumen Gate. The bandit leader was originally a mountain and sea gangster. Once he saw Tianwei, he was so scared that he immediately took his confession and took it to Xicheng City. He was sentenced to death. Jia Lan, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice, monitored the executioner Jia Lan and led the prison van to the Xicheng Vegetable Market. He watched the executioner General Wu and Bai two offenders suspended their heads in public and then returned to the court to reply.
The next day, Zhou Qiongxi was awarded the first-class Zhongding Hou.
Yizilong Qingmen Guard Zhou Ming was named the third-rank Weiyi Duwei Zhen Yinggui Xi was named the first-class Xiangcheng Bo Jia Zhen was awarded the title of the first-class Xiangcheng Bo, and was awarded the title of the first-class Dingxiang Bo, and was appointed as the governor of Xiangnan.
Yizi's imperial guard Jia Rong was named the third-rank Guoyong Duwei general, and some of them were also granted the title of the male commander and the cavalry officer. They could not write this order, and everyone in the court was happy.
The princes and ministers and ordinary ministers all went to Rongning to congratulate each other, and there were many high cars and horses, just because Jia Zhen and his son were not in Beijing. Jia Zheng was simple and did not hold a banquet to pay the banquet. He was scheduled to go to the ancestral hall to pay tribute to Jia She and Jia Lan, and Jia Zheng led Jia Lan to the court for five drums. After thanking him, he went to the clan hall. From the generation of the dynasty, Jia Daixiu, Jia Dairu to the generation of the cherryman, there were a total of sixty or seventy people. Jia Ren, who was waiting in the ancestral hall to watch the ancestral hall, replied: The eldest master and the second master and the Xiaolan, arrived.
Everyone greeted each other, and each had a conversation and waited for the banquet to be prepared, and then they would go on a ceremony together
At this time, the elixir inside and outside the ancestral hall was fresh, fragrant incense swaying green dragons, and fire phoenixes. Only the sound of clothes and jade were heard. After the ceremony, I was looking at Liao. Suddenly, a gust of divine wind blew from the shrine, as if there were golden swords and iron horses flying towards the sky. Everyone was shocked Jia Dairu: Although the gods are far and near, you can see that the gods are prominent this time, can you say that they are not Lai Gelai Xin? Jia Chi said: The ancestors are always concerned about their descendants, let alone the Duke of our country was born as a hero, and died as a god. I think Mr. Zhen’s success this time is all thanks to the ancestors’ moyou! Everyone is still discussing.
Seeing that the sacrifice was over, Jia She and Jia Zheng took Jia Lan back to the Xifu Rongning two governments, and they also followed him to the Xifu, congratulating Jia She and Jia Zheng, and let them sit down and talk. They said nothing more than saying some words of heavenly kindness and deeds. Jia Zheng touched his thoughts again and said: It was not that I was proud of you, but I was deeply afraid of you since I was obeying the official position. That year, the two governments were investigated. If the crime was serious, if it was not the emperor's kindness and the protection of our ancestors, would it be great? Fortunately, Brother Zhen could know how to reform his mistakes and strive for success and progress, so that he had this opportunity. From now on, don't forget to be afraid when raiding the house to punish him. Don't indulge in your eyes and knowing success or failure. It's just a matter of turning hands and turning hands, and there is nothing accurate. Everyone agreed to Jia Zheng and said to Jia Lan:You have only been an official for a few years, and now you are considered an official! But you know how many years your grandfather has been in the Ministry of Justice and suffered several troubles before he has reached this position. Don’t think that you are an extraordinary talent. You don’t fly high or fall seriously. The Ministry of Justice is not as good as other yamen. The case is too heavy and the punishment is strict. Once something goes wrong, I’m afraid that even the roots will be removed! From today on, you must read the laws and regulations carefully. If you don’t understand, you will ask the old officials humbly for advice. Don’t look at their small officials. People have real experience. What do you know? Jia Lanjingjin took the order and the branch’s children left. Jia She laughed and said: The second master is really redundant. According to what you say, there will be no comfortable life?
Jia Lan said: Grandpa taught a good lesson. After listening to Jia Zheng's words, he worked hard to get out of the yamen every day and studied the laws in the study. Even Mei asked him to write poems and lyrics, but he didn't do much.
That day, when I came back from the Ministry of Justice, I went to Mrs. Jia Zheng to pay An An to Mrs. Wang to see him wearing an old short jacket, and said, "Lan'er, you have become a minister, don't you make a new one?" Jia Lan said: This one was given to me by my grandfather when I went to Liaodong, saying that it was worn by the Duke in the military camp! When I wore him, I remembered how my ancestors were sincere in serving the country. I couldn't let go of building a career like Mr. Zhen to be worthy of this jacket. Mrs. Wang said: Speaking of making achievements, it is a misfortune of the country. Don't expect that I only hope that you can trust the blessing of the court and be a peaceful and peaceful official for the rest of your life! Jia Zheng said: Lan'er, what have you done in your yamen recently? Jia Lan picked up a few important things, and there was an incest case of Lai Shiyuan, the grandson of Lai Da, in the inner case.
It turned out that Lai Da had only one son and one grandson, and it was a pampered that Lai Shangrong had only a bad idea in his stomach. He knew how to teach his children? At this time, Lai Shiyuan had grown to eighteen years old and became lustful. He had an affair with his uncle and sister. He fled to Juju, Ping'anzhou, and was reported to Juzhu, who was implicated and found an affair, and was sentenced to a crime. Mrs. Wang said: Lai Da raised many daughters, but only this grandson passed on to generations. Isn't this a failure?
Jia Zhengdao: Even this kind of beastly behavior is embarrassing. I’m sorry, we are second to you, just because there are other hidden evils, otherwise why would that happen? I think the way of heaven is terrifying!
Jia Lan talked about the investigation of the Jinyiwei Hall official in Rongfu. Now he was promoted to the Yansui Jiedushi. Because of the many untrue reclamation incidents, he was impeached by the imperial envoy and investigated and handed over to the Ministry of Justice for the crime. After hearing the prison in the past two days, Jia Zheng hurriedly said: Lan'er, do you think that Zhao Tang official has a rift with us? He is also doing the movable property and now he is in trouble. If there is a law that can take care of him, you might as well take a lenient step. Even if you can't take care of him, you should also be mourning. If you look at someone falling into the well and then take the blame, that is a villain! Jia Lan said: The officials of each department have also discussed this case, and the worst is not imprisonment.
Mrs. Wang said: Has the case for the second uncle of the Sun family been decided? Jia Lan said: The day before yesterday that the officer of the trial office came to ask for instructions, and the grandson only said that we were close relatives, so they should avoid them knowing this friendship, so they would be lenient. But I hope that the matter will be misleading and secretly can be considered our care. Jia Zhengdao: Your second uncle is not a very bad person, he has only developed a bad temper. He has no one in everything, and his children from our aristocratic families should learn from him.
Then he said: Your third uncle is back, have you always met? Why didn't Rong'er come back? Jia Lan said: I heard that I have gone to the position of Mr. Zhen again. Jia Zheng said: Being a young master in the foreign yamen is not a good thing. I have done a foreign yamen twice. I never take my family. I am afraid that my children will learn bad things. If you go to write, I will advise him to come back. Jia Lan agreed and stood for a while. Seeing that Mrs. Jia Zheng had nothing to say, he left.
When he returned to Daoxiangcun, he met Li Wan. When Li Wan asked him how he came back today, Jia Lan said to both the Q&A and Jia Zheng in Shangfang and Jia Zheng's Q&A Li Wan said: The master has been loyal all his life, so you young people should learn a little. When Jia Lan returned to the room, Mei was taken back to her parents' home by Mrs. Mei. She only pleaded with Yun writing there and asked Jia Lan to teach him to use a pen. She could not help but give a careful guide to Jia Lan's business work recently. She still has such leisure and leisure, which is something outsiders would not know.
But Tanchun was not allowed to live in the Jia Mansion because his son-in-law returned to Beijing. He was only arranged for the family matters. When he came back that day, he went to the garden to look for Baochai and talked. Xiangyun was also in Yihongyuan. The three of them talked for a while and Tanchun was active. They pulled Baochai and Xiangyun out for a walk and said: The weather was hot at this time, but the places near the water were cool. The three of them went to the Lou Xiangxie together. They saw that the new lotus from the water were paved like a cover. The windows near the water were all open, and the Hunan curtain was hanging down, which was very quiet. Everyone sat down against the railing. Baochai said: I turned the roots of the lotus this year, and it was even cleaner than in previous years.
Tanchun said: The lotus leaves are so big, I have never known what to do, I forgot about the season. I have arrived here today, as if I woke up in my eyes. Xiangyun said: The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, so we also want to ask some things, please invite my wife, the concubine and two sisters-in-law, now Brother Zhen has made up for it, and maybe when will I take my family to take care of my family? Baochai said: I think so too, I can only invite them to stroll around the garden. What's the point? As long as I ask the girls to drive the boat and play with a slight ten-day slight ten-day slightly. Xiangyun said: I also want to have a slightly ten-day slightly. It's better to add two more dragon boats while it's still early this time, pack up the two old dragon boats in the dock, and ask the drivers to practice for about ten days?
Tanchun said: Are there dragon boats in this dock? I haven't seen you before. You are really a geography ghost! Xiangyun said: I also heard Cuilu say that I went to see it myself that day. Sure enough, there are some, but unfortunately I have been useless for many years and they were all broken. Baochai said: It's easy to pack it up. Let's wait for a while and ask the manager to do it. Xiangyun said: If your brother saw it, I don't know how happy it would be! Tanchun said: I remembered that there was a lie that year, saying that the Empress would still be left with the rest of the old lady and Mrs. Feng, and said: "What's the fun and fun in April and May? You can only play two dragon boats!" Later, I didn't hear it. Maybe it was the ones that were prepared at that time. Baochai said:In this way, he also vented his anger for Ou Xiangxie. The fourth girl gave this name in vain and never invited everyone to visit his introverted temperament. However, such a good place was almost destroyed by him! That night, Tanchun returned and advised Xiangyun Baochai.
That day, Li Wan went to see Aunt Li. Xiangyun had never been able to hold back when she was not at home. When she saw Li Wan the next day, she told him that Li Wan smiled and said: You really know how to play, but I am in Jiangxi. I am locked up in the yamen all day long. There is a custom of dragon boat racing. Any platform in front of him took their family to watch dragon boats. It happened that those swimming groups fought each other and caused human lives. The platform was also dropped by ginseng, but Lan'er issued a notice. Xiangyun smiled and said: Do you only care about being officials? We idle people are more comfortable than you.
Two days later, Li Wen, Li Qi and Xue Baoqin came to celebrate with Li Wan, and then sat down at Baochai. Baochai made an appointment with them in person. There was rare such excitement in the capital. After hearing this, they were very happy and agreed to come.
In early May, the dragon boat was ready, Baochai returned to Mrs. Wang first. When she returned to Xue's house that day, she invited Aunt Xue to meet You's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in person. She sent someone out of the city to pick up Qiaojie and Liu Laolao. She asked Ping'er to come back in person. Just two days, Mrs. Xing was angry with her aunts and had liver disease. Not to mention that Qiaojie had not returned to Jia's house for a long time. She heard that there was a dragon boat to see, so she was even happier. She got up early in the morning to finish washing and celebrate the festival for her mother-in-law. So she rushed to Liu Laolao to combed her hair and dressed up, put on a pomegranate flower, and brought some new cherries, cucumbers, apricots, and wild vegetables. She got into the car and rushed into the city. When she arrived at Rongguo Mansion, she first asked Ping'er to talk home. Fang Tong went to Mrs. Wang to pay homage to the festival and said: Grandma, are you still tough? Are you here to watch the fun?Liu Laolao said: In the countryside, I only heard that the emperor had played dragon boats in his home, but I never saw the blessing of siring my aunt this time. I opened my eyes. Qiaojie smiled and said: Madam, look at grandma, who is old and loves to dress up. It’s not good to wear this one, and it’s not suitable to wear that one. I said, “Didn’t my aunt give you two sets? He remembered that it fits very well, but the sleeves are longer. Liu Laolao smiled and said: When I was young, I was also easy to dress up. Now I have to make a coffin, so why are you dressed up! But when I got to the city, I was dressed too ragged and asked the butlers to laugh at me. If it weren’t for the second grandma giving me this set of clothes, it would be difficult! Ping'er smiled and said: This is also half old, it’s better than your country clothes.
As they were talking, Tanchun and Baoqin were here, and before they could sit down, Li Wan and Baochai accompanied Youshi Hu to the Shangfang. Everyone had a chance to meet Liu Laolao and asked him well.
Grandma Liu said: I heard that the old man and third aunt in the East Mansion were all given official positions, and the eldest grandma's brother was also promoted. This was really a great joy! You Shi smiled and said: What about the great grandma's official position? First-rank people don't have to worry about anything. They were promoted to the official position, but they were earned by their lives. Grandma Liu was so scared that she just chanted Buddha's name! Tanchun pointed to Baoqin and said: This aunt Mei is the wife of Xinhanlin, so grandma won't congratulate him?
Liu Laolao said: I see this aunt looks weirdly handsome, she looks lucky. Everyone laughed.
Mrs. Wang said: Let's go to the garden, I'm afraid someone will be waiting there
As he said that, he walked to the Grand View Garden with everyone, Baochai and Ping'er advised Mrs. Wang to sit in the sedan chair. Mrs. Wang only said that the weather was good, and I also used this to disperse the flower silence. Then he met Aunt Xue holding the little girl. Xing Xiuyan followed him to see Mrs. Wang and said with a smile: "Miss, it's so early today, I hurried to stay behind." Grandma Liu said: "Miss, I've always been good?" That year, I had a big grandson, and I recently heard that she had a granddaughter. It's such a blessing."
Mrs. Wang said: Why don’t the concubine bring her brothers and sisters to play? Aunt Xue said: When they are here, they are also furious and have breasts and Baochan at home watching.
Tanchun smiled and said: That sister is our second grandmother Xiaohui, why did she come to the door without posting it?
At one time, I arrived at Ouxiangxie. I saw Xichun, Xiangyun, Li Wen, and Li Qi all leaned against the railings and watched fish. Xiangyun, who also threw some buns to attract fish, saw these people first and said, "No wonder we have been waiting for the past half day. It turned out that we had all gone to the upper room. When Aunt Xue saw Sister Wen Qi, she asked her in-laws why she didn't come?" Li Wen said: Yesterday, my mother said she wanted to come. She was suffering from a cold. Today, she invited the doctor to take medicine. Everyone confessed to Li Qi and Li Qi's newly married. Li Qi was still a little shy. She couldn't answer that Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue had just sat in a chat. Qiu Wen hugged Brother Hui, her breasts were holding Brother Zhu, Bihen, Ying'er, Feng'er and other girls all followed her. It was very lively. Mei took Brother Quan again, and the girls were also following her breasts.
Li Wan said: The place here is narrow and cannot accommodate many people, so why not place it in the Aojing Pavilion? Baochai said: The master and the master are there, and the general Qingkes are there. Although it is narrow here, you still have to see it, there is nothing to block your eyes.
The girls and women arranged the tables, and everyone asked Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, and Lao Laolao to sit on the table, followed by Youshi and Li Wan, and the sisters also sat on two or three dishes. Two colorful boats came beside the Qingyezhu. The boat was full of peacocks and the feathers of the pheasants were tied into various colors. A group of girls sat on the boat, playing thin ten rounds followed by two dragon boats, one green dragon and the other yellow dragon. They all set up color pavilions, hung embroidered flags, and countless small nails were nailed around them.The mirror is dazzling and the colorful boat is bulging. The two boats dance back and forth, and there is another small boat, carrying a bright pearl ball, either distance or welcome, or together, and performing a bead swallowing drama. The women all know how to water, wearing colorful oil silk clothes, sometimes performing phoenix Huáng spreading their wings, sometimes performing a kite rolling over, doing all kinds of plays, everyone on the seat was fascinated, and the brothers clapped and laughed.
Xiangyun asked Cuilu to take out many carved bamboo things, all of which were colored. The white ones were melons, the red ones were oranges, the green ones were gourds, the purple ones were eggplants, and the yellow ones were papayas. There were about a dozen, and there were also branches and leaves. They twisted the spiral stems like real, put the teeth of each person's name in it, and said: Throw this thing down, ask them to fish for water, and whoever took out the fish will drink. Tanchun, Baoqin said that Baochai took Xiangyun's papaya carefully again, for fear that he would have any harm in secret. Grandma Liu said: Auntie, don't fiddle with me, I won't drink it, I'm drunk, and joked again. Ping'er smiled and said: Grandma, don't be afraid, are you fishing for yours? Cuilu, Ying'er threw those things down, swaying one by one to the bottom of the water.
It turns out that there is molten tin inside, and the weight is quite heavy
When I was young, the colorful boat bulged up again, and some drivers turned over in oil-silk clothes. After a bag of cigarettes, they took one to bring them up. Everyone saw it was Aunt Xue's Buddha's hand, so they gave it to him. Then, they caught another gourd, but it was Youshi's, and they also paid homage to him. Then they were Xing Xiuyan's lotus shower, Li Wen's flat fruit, and another orange and a small pumpkin, which was Tanchun and Baoqin's. Xiangyun all forced them to drink Tanchun and said: Why can't I catch Sister Shi alone? I'm afraid there are ghosts here? Xiangyun smiled and said: I'm not the only one who has not been caught. Besides, Sister Bao has already paid attention. Then you don't drink much, so why are you so timid?
You Shi said: What are you afraid of, third sister? Just one glass of wine. Xiangyun said: My sister-in-law is a countess, and she is a large number of people. I guess that cup is small. So she asked Cuilu to take the boxwood cup and it turned out that set of cups had been brought and placed on the small table next to it. It was Tanchun. Xiangyun wanted to make fun of Liu Laolao Cuilu and took it to the mat. Xiangyun raised the pots and filled them all, and said: If anyone caught this time, I have to drink this set.
Grandma Liu hurriedly left the seat and waved her hand: I've tried the benefits of that guy, I can't stand it, so I'll let my house go. When everyone heard this, they covered their hands with their hands and laughed at Tanchun. Xiangyun hurriedly walked up and forced Liu Laolao to sit on the mat. The drivers just caught an eggplant. Everyone saw that it was Grandma Liu Laolao's Xiangyun laughed and said: Grandma, this is nothing, I've drunk all the time. Grandma Liu said: If you drink these, I'll be drunk to death. Let me spare me. Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue also repeatedly pleaded for him. You said: I'll tell my grandma about love, just drink this sea of flowers. Grandma Liu couldn't pick up the boxwood sea, drank the purple eggplant in her hand in a gulp, and praised it carefully: How did he do it? It's the same as before.Before he could finish his sentence, the wine came up, and he felt dizzy and heartbeat. He hurriedly leaned on the bamboo couch beside the mat and said, "Aunt Shi, why bother to get my grandma drunk again!" Xiangyun smiled and said, "What's the point of drinking more? I want to drink, but I can't catch it." Tanchun said: It's a pity that there are leftover wine. If you have any, you can catch it. Start from that small cup, drink it all, and then collect the order.
Li Wan said: Everyone is not good at drinking, and they are all drunk, but what's the point? Tanchun said: You only be your old plum, don't worry about our defeat and success
Then he picked up a few more, and each of them drank in turn. Xiangyun also drank half a cup of wine. It was Yu Shi who refused to drink it again and again. Xiangyun, Tanchun and Baochai each made a small cup. You Shi asked Wenhua to bring up another big cup, and the rest was barely drunk.
It was already sunset in the trees. Everyone sat apart for a while. Baochai ordered Qiuwen to make tea and drink a glass of tea for Laolao Liu. The wine was a little relieved. Sister Qiao and Ping'er held him and went to Ping'er's room to rest. Mrs. Wang couldn't hold on, so she went upstairs with Aunt Xue to rest.
Here, Xiangyun Baochai still keeps everyone away and said: There is a light boat at night, which is even more interesting. I wonder how lively the light boat is? Let's listen to the next breakdown
