[Qing Chuan] Qing Chuan Wu Shi

Before Wu Ning could answer, the fourth elder brother said: "Why don't we go to Taohuawu? There are thousands of peaches in the mountains. By tomorrow's spring, the scenery will be comparable to Jiangnan." Wu Ning thought for a while and said: "It's still grapes. Let's go to the courtyard, it looks very cool."

The fourth elder brother looked at her with a bit of disgust, and said: "You are promising." Then he said helplessly: "Okay, it's up to you, I'll let someone clean up the grape yard quickly." While talking, looking at the rain scene, the sun has cleared unconsciously, and I only feel that the water and the sky are azure, clear and incomparable.

The steps of the grape yard are surrounded by stone fences, and a square pool is dug in the middle, which is almost an acre in size. An octagonal pavilion is built in the pool, and a winding corridor is built to lead to the pavilion. Behind the pavilion is an earthen platform and a rockery. The time has not been trimmed, and the branches of the trees have grown crookedly and collapsed.Su Peisheng directed the staff to be busy for three full days before rushing out of work, tidied up and invited Wu Ning to move in.

The grape yard lived up to its name. There are dense grape racks everywhere in the yard, covered with thick shade. When you look up, you can hardly see the sky. As soon as Wu Ning came in, he felt a coolness rushing towards him. The eunuch and maidservant behind him After the sedan chair walked under the sun for a long time, everyone was as hot as ants on a steamer. When they came in at this time, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Hetian couldn't help but sighed: "It's so cool!" See you again There is a square stone table under the grape trellis, on which there is a chess board, black and white chess pieces are scattered on it, and the sound of running water can be heard faintly.

On the east side of the courtyard are three houses facing north and south. The windows of the houses are hung with bamboo curtains, and the furnishings are elegant. Among them, a very small pool was dug under the south window.Su Peisheng sent Wu Ning here, and seeing Wu Ning's expression of satisfaction, he smiled and said: "Master Wu, the prince is still waiting for the slave to take his order, so the slave will leave first."

Wu Ning looked up at the vines on the top of his head, turned his head and said, "Grandpa Su, you have worked hard." Su Peisheng didn't dare to say that, bowed and walked away. Seeing that he was far away, Hetian called out: " Master! This is really a good place to escape the summer heat, which room does the master live in?".

Wu Ning looked through all the rooms, chose one as a bedroom, and the maids and maids began to arrange it. At this time, the warm wind was blowing gently, and the sunlight penetrated through the bamboo windows, making the room bright and clear. .Although Wu Ning came all the way in a sedan chair, his face was hot and sweated a lot, Qingming fetched warm water and waited for her to wash her face.

Wu Ning sat in front of the dressing table, letting Qingming redress her. Looking in the mirror, he saw He Tian checking and counting the cloth behind him. They were all new materials sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to Prince Yong's Mansion this year. Jiang Ning weaved new tributes. Yicai, among them are two goose-yellow silks with soft flowers, shining in the sun, He Tian couldn't help reaching out and touching them gently.Seeing this, Wu Ning said: "He Tian, ​​I will reward you with that material." He Tian was stunned for a moment, and shyly said: "It belongs to the master, slave...".

Wu Ning smiled, and said: "The reward is yours, just take it." He looked at Qingming again, and said, "What color do you like? Go pick some later. Qingming pursed his lips and smiled, Said: "The master treats the slaves kindly, and the rewards that the slaves usually get are enough. ", said, inserting a pearl hairpin into the root of Wu Ning's bun, bent down and looked in the mirror, saw that the bun was a little asymmetrical, wanted to remove it and recomb, Wu Ning stopped by raising his hand, and said : "No need, that's it. ", from the corner of his face, he saw a person standing motionless outside the window, Wu Ning was slightly startled, and said: "Who? ", when I turned to look over, I saw the fourth elder brother standing outside the window with a smile, his face was green by the blue color of the vines, but he didn't know when he was already standing here.

Wu Ning breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "The Lord is here, why didn't you let them report? Standing there silently surprised me." On the other side, I went to open the room early in the morning Door.

Seeing that he was discovered, the fourth elder brother lowered his head and climbed up the stairs, stepped into the house, glanced around, and said: "Su Peisheng moves quickly. When I walked all the way just now, I saw that the outside was well cleaned up." Said: "I laughed at you for being worthless before, but now I feel that this small courtyard is really cool!".

Wu Ning gently put away the powder box, got up and said: "It's still daytime, if at night, the lake breeze blows in, let alone how cool it will be." The fourth elder brother said: "If you want to blow the lake breeze, then What's the problem, I'll take you to swim in the lake at night." Wu Ning smelled the scent of the fourth elder brother, and said, "Did you come from Gengzhixuan?" The fourth elder brother was stunned, and said: "You How do you know?" Wu Ning lowered his eyes and said: "My Lord has a lot of the fragrance of June Snow on his body.".

Around the Geng Zhi Xuan, there are indeed a lot of June Snow densely planted, the fourth elder brother rolled his eyes, and said in a good mood: "It doesn't make sense, the June Snow scent is very weak, you can smell it?", Wu Ning was about to speak when a maidservant came in with lotus root sugar porridge. Seeing the fourth elder brother standing there, Qingming stepped forward to pick up the tray. The fourth elder brother turned around and said, "Have you eaten breakfast yet?" ?”.

Wu Ning nodded and said: "I have been busy coming here all morning, but I haven't rested yet, what about you, sir? Do you want to use some together?" The fourth brother nodded and said: "That's fine." Wu Ning hurriedly called He Tian to go to dinner again Fang brought some cakes, porridge and noodles, but the fourth elder brother stopped, and said to Wu Ning: "This lotus root porridge is very fragrant, just use this." It's very hot." Seeing this, Qingming said: "Master, lord, why don't you use it in the yard? It's windy outside, and it's cool, and it will be cold in a while." The fourth elder brother nodded and praised: "Exactly, the wind outside It’s so big, it’s stuffy in the room.”

The two of them moved out and sat down at the stone table. Sure enough, the wind was filled with the scent of vine trellises, and they rushed over one after another, which only made people's sleeves flutter, and the leaves rustled. It is rippling in the ear, and the gurgling water, occasionally a few petals fall, mixed with the sweet fragrance of lotus root sugar porridge, attracting bees and butterflies to dance endlessly.

Wu Ning ate a few mouthfuls, and inadvertently looked up and saw two or three black eagles fluttering in the sky, with blurred shapes. She squinted her eyes against the sun for a while, and then she recognized several kites. The wind was strong, and the kites were flying. It is so high that it looks like there are really birds flying in the sky from a distance. Seeing her eyes, the fourth elder brother also looked towards the sky, and couldn't help laughing: "Look at the direction, it's Ergege's place." As he exited, feeling a little regretful in his heart, he looked at Wu Ning and saw Wu Ning bowed his head to drink porridge, his expression was as usual.

Er Gege was born in the 34th year of Kangxi, and now she is 14 years old. She has always been spoiled by the Li family. This day, when the wind is strong, she clamors to fly a kite. How can the Li family hold her back? She can only let the eunuchs and maids He went out with Er Gege.

Around Er Gege, except for the nuns, the others are all young ladies of the same age. It is a rare time when they are so relaxed, they all clap their hands and laugh while watching. , It is inevitable that when they knocked each other down, everyone clapped their hands and laughed.Standing on the steps, Mrs. Li also looked up and saw that the kite was flying very well, spreading its wings high in the sky, only turning into a few small black dots, and Er Gege danced and laughed, sprinkled a string of silver bells. Seeing the laughter, Li Shi couldn't help showing a smile on his face when he suddenly remembered when he first entered the mansion.

The little eunuchs around saw that Fujin was happy, and the little master was happy, and it was even more fun. You kept praising the kite flying well, and Er Gege ran happily. She scratched her chest, she turned her head, saw that it was the fourth elder brother, she was stunned, and said: "Ama...".

Mrs. Li hurried forward, pulled over Er Gege first, and said: "Greetings to the prince." The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "You are so excited, I saw the kite in the sky from a long distance, come and have a look ", those little eunuchs knelt on the ground, Er Gege saw that the kite was about to fall from the sky, stamped his feet anxiously and said: "Give me the thread handle! Give me the thread handle!", Mrs. Li shouted: " There are no rules! Seeing you, Ama, why do you care about kites?".

The fourth elder brother stopped Li Shi and said: "Let her let her go!" Er Gege became more bold after hearing what the fourth elder brother said, but he had more energy than he wanted. After a while, a kite fell down, and Li Shi He couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing, a little eunuch had already ran all the way to pick up the kite, and gave it to Er Gege with both hands.

Ergege stomped his feet angrily, said: "No more!", waved the kite and threw it on the ground, the fourth elder brother saw that the kite was in the shape of a bird with vivid eyes, and asked casually, "Who made it?" While Jin Tianhe came over and said with a smile: "As for the master, the kites here are all made by Xiao Laizi, and his craftsmanship is the best." At the same time, he turned his head to look for Xiao Laizi, only to see a fat little eunuch being beaten by someone. Kicking it over, he scrambled and fell down in front of the fourth prince, kowtowed and said: "Young servant, please greet the prince."The fourth elder brother saw that he looked familiar, and remembered that he seemed to be the one who tied the lanterns in the mansion during the Chinese New Year, so he nodded and said, "It's you? The craftsmanship is very good, and I will send a few more."

Xiao Laizi never expected that he would be lucky, and when he was spotted by the fourth elder brother, he immediately kowtowed like garlic and said: "With the order of the prince, I will definitely do my best!" Then he slightly raised his head and said: "I don't know what tricks the prince wants of?".

The fourth elder brother thought for a while and said, "Aside from Pengniao, what else do you have?".

Jin Tianhe rushed over early and said: "My lord, the little Laizi's character kite is also very good, and there are flowers and birds!" Seeing him rushing to answer, Mrs. Li glared at him, and the little Laizi wiped the pimples that rolled down his face. Khan, smile and wait for the fourth elder brother to speak.

The fourth elder brother concentrated for a while, and then said: "Let's make some flowers and butterflies, and send them in a few days, and the action should be quicker."
