Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

"Just now, Duke Guo has been calling you Zai Jing, not brother Jing!"

Gu Tingye said.

Zheng Xiao was stunned for a moment and then looked up at Xu Zaijing.

Xu Zaijing smiled and said: "Brother Ye, there is no difference."

Gu Tingye sighed: "What a big difference! Even if you are toasting to the Grand Duke, your wine glass will not be lower than his! God, even my father may not have such dignity."

Lu Zezong on the side heard Gu Tingye's words, proudly puffed out his chest, raised his glass and said: "Brother Shou, come, let the four of us have a drink."

Zheng Xiao, who was sitting aside, picked up the wine bottle and moved towards Xu Zaijing. Xu Zaijing quickly raised his glass and asked Zheng Xiao to pour the wine.

After pouring wine for Xu Zaijing,

Zheng Xiao filled another cup for Gu Tingye.

While pouring himself a drink, Zheng Xiao said, "Brother Jing, I won't talk about what happened in the past few years!"

"Based on the contribution you and Erlang have made in Beizhou, the Duke must be very grateful. Although he is a junior, how could he let you put the wine glass down."

Zheng Xiao sighed and raised his glass: "Oh! Sometimes I think about it, if only I was the one who made those achievements!"

Xu Zaijing and Zheng Xiao had a drink and said with a smile: "In this way, you can let General Zheng come to the Zhang family to propose marriage as soon as possible?"

"Pfft."

The younger Zhang family couldn't help laughing after hearing the conversation.

Zheng Xiao looked at Xu Zaijing helplessly.

Gu Tingye smiled and put the wine glass over and said, "Second brother Zheng must have thought so."

After the three of them drank their glasses, Zheng Xiao continued to pour wine for the three of them and said: "Erlang, don't talk about me! Brother Jing is the youngest in the family, so it's okay to get married later. You still have others behind you." Sister Yi!”

Gu Tingye ate the food and said, "Why are you blaming me? My marriage will have to wait two years!"

Zheng Xiao smiled and shook his head: "That's not necessarily the case!"

Gu Tingye was stunned: "Ah?"

Subsequently,

Zheng Xiao did not continue to speak, but just stared at the screen in the room, lost in thought.

When Gu Tingye saw this, he ate his own food without disturbing Zheng Xiao.

Xu Zaijing on the side smiled and drank a drink with his adopted brother and the other four boys.

After a while,

Xu Zaijing looked at Zheng Xiao and said, "Brother Zheng, what are you thinking about?"

Zheng Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Nothing! Come, let's take this glass of wine and wish the two saints and His Highness a long and endless life!"

Listening to Zheng Xiao's extremely sincere tone, Xu Zaijing raised his wine glass thoughtfully, repeated Zheng Xiao's blessing to Gu Tingye, and drank the wine together.

Jiying Lane,

Sheng family,

backyard,

The branches and leaves of several bamboos beside the wall have already been dyed white by snow.

In the Changbai study room not far from the bamboo,

It was cloudy and snowing, and although it was approaching noon, there was still not enough light in the house.

Changbai, who was sitting on the chair, could only read a few pages of the book, then closed his eyes and rested for a while.

"Changbai!"

"Changbai?"

There was a faint shout outside the study.

Chang Bai, who had his eyes closed, opened them and walked toward the door in confusion.

Before reaching the door, Khan Niu opened the study door and said, "Sir, it's our uncle who is here."

"Brother-in-law? Is the eldest sister back?" Changbai asked quickly.

"Younger ones don't know this!"

Khan Niu finished speaking,

Zai Zhang's figure, wearing a cloak and holding an oil-paper umbrella, appeared at the door of the study.

"Changbai, why are you reading in this weather? It hurts your eyes! Let's go and make snow lions with my brother-in-law!" Zai Zhang said with a smile.

Changbai was stunned: "Ah? Making a snow lion? Brother-in-law, I, I can't!"

Zai Zhang smiled and said, "You're talking just like me! Come on, get dressed. We don't need to be able to carve or pile snow to make it."

Changbai nodded doubtfully and continued: "Brother-in-law, are my sister and my nephew here?"

"Here we are! We're at Shou'an Hall!"

"Oh! Khan Niu, get my clothes quickly!"

Shouantang,

The winding path in the yard that had been swept clean in the morning was now covered again by the freshly fallen snow, and there were still many footprints on it.

There are snowdrifts as high as benches on the ground beside the Yonglu trail, which look vaguely like piglets and puppies.

On the railing under the eaves, there are a row of neatly arranged goose egg-sized snow balls picked out with snow clips.

At this time, both snowdrifts and snow masses are covered with a layer of new snow.

In the hall,

The old lady sat on the Arhat chair with a smile on her face, looking sideways at Xu Xingzhong in Wang Ruofu's arms nearby.

"Brother Zhong, is it cold on the road?"

Wang Ruofu, who was sitting on the chair and holding his grandson Xu Xingzhong with a doting look on his face, asked.

After asking, he would still touch his grandson’s little face with his face from time to time.

Mother Liu, who was standing behind, looked at Xu Xingzhong in Wang Ruofu's arms with a loving smile.

Hua Lan, who was on the side, was holding Chang Zhu in one hand and holding a piece of paper full of handwriting in the other hand. He was surprised and asked: "Brother, is this really written by you?"

After Sheng Changzhu glanced at the old lady, he smiled and nodded: "Yes!"

Hua Lan couldn't help but nod: "Yes, it's really well written!"

After saying that, Hua Lan glanced sideways at the powerful Wei Shuyi and said, "My dear, I'm interested!"

Wei Shu smiled happily and bowed: "It's the old lady and the eldest lady who taught me well."

Hua Lan smiled and shook his head, looked at his son and said, "I hope Zhong'er and his uncle can write such beautiful calligraphy at their age."

Wang Ruofu glared and scolded: "Hua'er, what did you say? Our Zhong'er can definitely write it! Isn't that right, Zhong'er?"

"Yeah! Yes, grandma!"

Wang Ruofu smiled and touched his grandson's head, and said proudly: "What a good boy!"

Ru Lan, who was on the side, nudged to Wang Ruofu's side, stretched out her hand and said, "Mom, I want to hug my little nephew!"

Wang Ruofu thought for a while and nodded: "Reach out your hand! Be careful!"

"Yeah!" Ru Lan took the child and said with a smile: "Come on, call Aunt Sheng to come and listen!"

"Second aunt~"

"So good!"

Xu Xingzhong, who was in Rulan's arms, turned his head, looked at Mo Lan and Minglan on the other side, and shouted with a smile: "Auntie! Auntie!"

Hear someone calling,

Minglan smiled happily,

Mo Lan also raised the corner of her mouth and forced out a smile.

At this time,

A man's voice came from outside the house,

The voice of the female envoy came: "My uncle and my second brother and my third brother are here."

After putting down the oil-paper umbrella outside and taking off his cloak, Zai Zhang entered the hall with his two brothers-in-law.

First, he bowed to the old lady and Wang Ruofu and called others,

Changbai looked at Hua Lan in the room and said with a smile, "Sister."

Chang Feng also shouted with a smile.

Hua Lan responded with a smile.

"Uncle, little uncle." Xu Xingzhong in Rulan's arms shouted loudly as if he was performing a show.

"Hey!" Chang Bai and Chang Feng responded in unison with a smile.

When Wang Ruofu saw Zai Zhang, his face was filled with a proud smile. After taking a sip of tea, he said: "Uncle, Hua Lan said that you brought a snow lion mold. Is it really as magical as she said? "

As soon as these words came out,

The four Lan and Mammy envoys in the hall looked at Zai Zhang.

Zai Zhang smiled and nodded: "My true mother-in-law, you will be able to see clearly later."

Xu Xingzhong smiled and nodded: "Grandma, it's true! This morning, my uncle made a lot of snow lions, they are so beautiful!"

Wang Ruofu on the side stretched out his hand and touched Xu Xingzhong's little face lovingly, and said with a smile: "Oh, my dear Zhong'er! This time he said the same thing, and he said it so neatly! How good!"

Hearing his grandmother's praise, Xu Xingzhong pursed his lips happily, and glanced at his mother Hualan with some embarrassment.

While talking, Zai Zhang and Chang Bai Chang Feng sat down, took the hot drinks from Fang's mother, nodded, looked at the old lady with a smile on her face and said:

"Auntie, actually, this is the first time that my grandson has mastered the molding of snow lions."

Wang Ruofu nodded repeatedly and said: "Then don't do it later. Your clothes and boots will get wet and the cold will make you uncomfortable. Just let the servants in the house do it."

After Wang Ruofu finished speaking, the old lady nodded with a smile and said, "Zhang'er, what your mother-in-law said makes sense! But if the Snow Queen doesn't build a snowman and a snow lion, the fun of snowing will be much less!"

Zai Zhang smiled and nodded: "Auntie, there are no snow lions on Quyuan Street. My grandson is not willing to do it, but he really can't do it!"

Hearing this, everyone in the hall looked at Zai Zhang in confusion. Chang Feng smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, why is this?"

Zai Zhang smiled sheepishly and licked his lips, then picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Everyone looked at Hua Lan who was beside the old lady. Hua Lan glared at Zai Zhang angrily and said with a smile: "Brother Feng, it's your brother-in-law. When he went out this morning, all the snow in the Hou Mansion was swept away by Wu Lang. Get up and pile up into a snow lion."

Chang Feng stared in surprise and said, "Huh? What time did Brother Jing get up?"

Chang Bai, who was sitting on top of Chang Feng, sat upright with a thoughtful look in his eyes after hearing this, and looked at his sister Hualan.

Hualan looked at Zai Zhang, who put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "You don't have to come to our house to go to school. Xiao Wu has been delayed for half an hour these days and will get up around Mao Chu (5 a.m.) to exercise."

After Zai Zhang finished speaking,

Changbai nodded with full approval.

"Old madam, the snow has stopped. The boy outside the hospital said that half of the model has been set up as my uncle said."

The little girl at the door, Dan Ju, said with a smile.

"Okay!" Zai Zhang stood up with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Aunt, mother-in-law, let's go out and build a snow lion first."

Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\\\\Nine\\\\\\Book\\\\\\!)

The old lady smiled and nodded: "Go ahead! Don't just grab it without gloves!"

Zai Zhang responded with a smile and walked out with Chang Bai Chang Feng.

Ru Lan put her nephew in Wang Ruofu's arms and said, "Mother, my daughter wants to..."

Wang Ruofu hugged his grandson, glanced at the smiling old lady, waved his hand and said: "Go! Get dressed and wear ear protection!"

"Yes! Mother!"

Ru Lan happily walked to Magpie and asked the female servant to put a cloak on her.

Wei Shuyi also bowed to the old lady and Wang Ruofu, and said softly: "Old lady, mistress, I'm going to work too."

The old lady nodded, and Wang Ruofu smiled and hummed.

When Wei Shuyi walked to the door of the hall, Rulan, who was dressed, also came over.

Wei Shuyi naturally lifted the door curtain, and Ru Lan walked out from under the door curtain. The magpie following behind bowed to Wei Shuyi before following.

After leaving the house and standing at the door of the courtyard, Wei Shu smiled as he looked at Zai Zhang and others who were happily clearing snow piles outside.

After gently sniffing the cool air outside and smelling the smell of snow, Wei Shuyi walked towards Jin'anzhai with the female envoy.

When passing by Zai Zhang and others, Wei Shuyi paused for a moment to look at the iron mold, then bowed his head and bowed.

After seeing this, Zai Zhang smiled and nodded.

soon,

Wei Shuyi's figure turned and disappeared into the aisle.

At this time, Mo Lan and Ming Lan were also fully dressed and came outside the house with their maids and hand warmers in their hands.

Looking at Ru Lan who was helping to shovel the snow, Mo Lan raised the corner of her mouth slightly with a look of disgust and said: "Dirty and cold things, I don't know what she is interested in!"

Ming Lan, who was next to him, didn't say anything. He looked at the mold with a pair of bright eyes curiously. He walked over and looked at the busy Zai Zhang. Ming Lan said, "Brother-in-law, this model looks so rough on the outside!"

Zai Zhang, who was pounding the snow hard, exhaled, pointed to the mold that had not yet been tied on, and said with a smile: "Sixth sister, just go over there and take a look."

"oh!"

Minglan took Xiao Tao to the mold and took a closer look. After touching it, she discovered that the outside of the mold looked rough, but the inside that shaped the snow was very delicate.

"Wow! This"

Looking at Minglan's look, Zai Zhang smiled and said, "Sixth sister, this was made by a master craftsman from the Ministry of Industry. You can't see it on ordinary days!"

Minglan nodded, handed the stove to Xiao Tao, then took the gloves from Dan Ju who followed, and said: "Xiao Tao, go get my big bamboo basket!"

"Yes, girl."

After a while,

Minglan used a tightly woven basket to hold the falling snow and handed it to Changbai, who then poured the snow into the mold.

After being busy,

Zaizhang used force to cap and compact the mold.

The people on the side were waiting expectantly to see what it would look like after being opened.

at the same time,

British government,

In the backyard garden,

There is also a ‘finished’ mold slowly opening,

The fifth lady of the Zhang family breathed white air, looked at the formed snow lion closely with a look of surprise, and sighed: "Wow! It looks good! Quick, bring the hydrangea and let it step on it!"

Yu Yanran, who was standing next to Gu Tingyi, also had surprise in her eyes and whispered: "This is so beautiful!"

As she said that, Yu Yanran turned her head and whispered to Gu Tingyi: "Sister Tingyi, do you think we can get some smaller models made of wood or porcelain, which will sell better?"

Chai Zhengzheng, who was on the other side of Gu Tingyi, looked over with a smile and nodded approvingly: "Yanran, I'll take part when the time comes."

Listening to Chai Zhengzheng's words, Gu Tingyi looked at Yu Yanran with a smile and said in a funny way: "Sister Yanran, I see why you always want to make money from Brother Xu Wu? You used to create a lot of new ear protection patterns, but then The snow clip has been improved, and now you like this model again? "

When someone hears someone's name, someone's ears perk up.

Yu Yanran felt a little embarrassed for a moment and said: "Where can I be? I wanted Mrs. Wu to give some interest to the Xu family, but Brother Xu didn't want it."

Gu Tingyi smiled and said: "Then, why not give me more interest?"

Yu Yanran smiled and nodded: "Okay!"

Ting Yi smiled and exhaled, then touched Yu Yanran's cheek with some affection and said, "Silly sister."

Chai Zhengzheng had been in Bianjing for a long time, so he knew about Yu Yanran's life experience, as she lost her mother when she was young.

Moreover, Chai Zhengzheng also heard a story from Gu Tingyi’s mouth, which was told by Mrs. Xu Hou’s wife, Sun.

This is what I saw on the way to Xiangzhou for the funeral that year: the dowry property belonging to Yu Yanran, her deceased mother, was transferred and sold to the eldest lady who was remarried by her father.

When Sun and Bai were talking about this matter, Gu Tingyi was young and did not avoid Gu Tingyi.

now,

Chai Zhengzheng, who was listening to the two people talking, couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he heard the words "Brother Xu Wu doesn't want it", and his eyes were very pleased, and he felt a bit like "As expected of me."

Rong Feiyan, who was standing on the other side, had nothing strange on his face. He just smiled and looked at the snow lion not far away.

actually,

When Rong Feiyan heard about this incident, she felt quite uncomfortable. She once thought that Xu Wulang did this because he had a good impression of Yu Yanran, and she worried about gain and loss for a while.

Later, when she went to the palace to chat with her sister, Concubine Rong, Rong Feiyan pretended to reveal the matter unintentionally. After listening to her sister's analysis of the Yu family's situation, she finally understood:

'The Wulang Xu family is just kind-hearted, hoping that Yu Yanran, who lost his mother at a young age and whose biological father does not care for his stepmother, can save more dowry for himself! He is a good boy with a kind heart! ’

Subsequently,

The snow lion was decorated.

The female envoy of the Zhang family also carried out a few snow clips so that the visiting ladies could play with their own snow clips.

on the other side,

In the verandah separated by a wall from the garden,

Xu Zai Jingzheng and Gu Tingye were walking side by side,

There is a flower window on the wall next to it, and the scenery in the garden can be vaguely seen.

"Brother Jing, are you saying that Brother Zheng just wished His Majesty from a distance because he was unsure about the marriage?"

Xu Zaijing nodded: "Yes! Brother Zheng is very thoughtful. He knows that the British Principality's affairs are the most important thing and he won't care too much about the love between his children."

Gu Tingye nodded in understanding.

In the garden,

Holding a snow clip in his hand, Gu Tingyi looked through the flower window on the white wall and saw his second brother Gu Tingye walking on the veranda.

Looking at the doorway that Gu Tingye was about to pass not far away,

Gu Tingyi hurriedly smiled and clamped a snow ball with a snow clip, and walked over.

"Sister Tingyi, what are you doing?"

Rong Feiyan looked at Gu Tingyi doubtfully and asked.

Gu Tingyi smiled and pointed at the flower window,

After the ladies said a few words to each other, they all walked towards the garden entrance with evil smiles.

Xu Zaijing and Gu Tingye continued walking in the veranda,

Several girls walking on the other side of the flower window on the wall,

Xu Zaijing thought she was the female envoy of the Zhang family.

He continued walking forward without paying attention.

When passing by the verandah opposite the garden entrance,

‘Whoosh’

A snowball suddenly flew out of the door and hit Xu Zaijing.

"porphyrin"

Xu Zaijing stretched out his hand and grabbed the snow ball without even looking at it.

"Huh? Can you catch all of these?"

Behind the wall at the door, Gu Tingyi stuck his head out with surprise and sighed.

Xu Zaijing smiled proudly.

Gu Tingye glared at his sister angrily and pointed at Gu Tingyi. When he wanted to speak, he saw the five ladies of the Zhang family and other noble ladies, each holding a snowball in their hands and about to throw it at him. come over.

Xu Zaijing walked quickly and said: "The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, so hurry up."

Gu Tingye turned around and shouted: "Good men don't fight with women!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several snowballs flew over!

Subsequently,

After Chai Zhengzheng and Rong Feiyan threw two snowballs at Xu Zaijing bitterly, they looked at Xu Zaijing who was hit by several snowballs and ran away in panic, and laughed happily.
