A world of glory

Qin Yi smiled and said: "Since there are some rare fish and shrimp, you asked if the kitchen can be cleaned up. If it can be cleaned up, then I will cook a few dishes and send them to the wives and young masters in the house, and let them taste them too." Pei Yu I answered with a smile.Then Qin Yi said to Lanyue: "I just counted the account books a while ago, how much did this shop give away?" Lanyue said with a smile: "About two to three thousand taels. Sister Nongyun counted, I'm busy putting it into the warehouse!" "It's not too small, since the shop has sent money, the annual money will be distributed tomorrow, so that the people in this courtyard can have a good year." Qin Yi smiled and ordered.

At noon, before Qin Yi ordered someone to pass the meal, a little maid in red clothes came to invite Qin Yi.It turned out that Madam was visiting Madam Gu's family at the Water Pavilion today, and someone specially ordered the Young Master and Miss to go with her.Although Qin Yi wanted to decline, but thinking that he missed it last time, it would be rude if he didn't go this time.Qin Yi changed into a moon-white wide-sleeved brocade robe with plain patterns, a plain colored glass belt with branches wrapped around his waist, a sapphire crown in a bun on his head, and a emerald carved double-crane pendant around his waist. More and more handsome and elegant.After Qin Yi changed his clothes, he took a few servant girls and headed towards the water pavilion where his wife hosted a banquet.

Although it is cold winter, the sky has cleared up, the sun is warm, and there is a bit of spring in it.The water pavilion in the mansion is also called "Mianyue Pavilion". There is only a nine-curved covered bridge connected to the shore, which is the most beautiful and elegant.At noon, the sun was shining brightly, leaving mottled light marks on the nanmu floor through the light blue haze. When entering the pavilion, a crystal curtain divided the water pavilion into two. Qingshan Yunxiu map.There are two bamboo tables outside the curtain, and four or five maids are busy cooking tea and wine.Qin Yi entered the inner room, several younger sisters and younger brothers hurriedly stood up and saluted, while the second wife said with a smile: "Everything in this water pavilion is good, except that the wind is a bit strong. Fortunately, the weather is good today, so it's okay to come if you want to." Just as he was speaking, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu's family came with a large group of people, Mrs. Madam.Seeing that all the people had come, the second wife hurriedly ordered the maids to offer tea, and set up the tables and chairs to serve the cups, and everyone sat down in order.

After the maids had prepared the meals, another group of maids brought Lan Tang to clean their hands.The old matriarch smiled and said to the second wife: "The weather is fine today, let's set up another table on the porch, so that the girls can relax for a while." The second wife naturally agreed, and ordered Qingyan beside her to choose a few A dish was sent to the aunts in the house.After a while of busy work, the second wife returned to the banquet and served the old lady and his wife for dinner.Because it is a banquet, and the taste of the guests must be taken care of, the food is a bit salty.Although Qin Yi didn't like it, it wasn't easy to reveal it, so he had to pick up the light vegetarian food, use a few chopsticks, and drink a few glasses of light wine.When the wine was half full, the old matriarch said to Mrs. Gu again: "Although the scenery in this water pavilion is good, it is actually a bit windy. If Mrs. Gu doesn't mind, accompany me back to the room to talk, and keep them monkeys." My son is here to play." Mrs. Gu agreed.Mrs. and Mrs. Gu followed Mrs. Gu and went back to the yard without mentioning it.

Fei Xue saw that there were leftovers and cold dishes on the table, so she hurriedly ordered the servant girl to clean it up, and then ordered someone to make a new table for the banquet.Fei Yu and Miss Gu's family are making water to watch fishes, while Fei Xia and Fei Yan are playing chess on the side.Brother Xian drank a few more glasses of wine, and poured it aside drunk.Qin Yi was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he hurriedly ordered the servant girl to help Brother Xian into the water pavilion, surrounded by an exquisite screen, and it was an exquisite and small bedroom.Although he didn't live there for a long time, he kept it very clean. Brother Xian fell on the bed and soon fell asleep.Qin Yi smelled the smell of wine, so he asked someone to burn a few pieces of agarwood in the censer, and ordered the servant girl to serve him carefully, and then he went out of the room.

Qin Yi returned to the banquet, Feixue was joking with Miss Gu, Feiyu watched Feixia and Feiyan play chess, while Brother Wen was talking about poetry and painting with Young Master Gu, in a peaceful manner.Qin Yi was also at ease, and ordered the servant girl to make another pot of weak tea, and sip the tea to enjoy the scenery.Fei Yu watched chess for a while, then felt bored, and said with a smile, "It's rare to have a visitor from afar today, why don't we play the game of Lianshi Touhu." Let’s talk about it.” Fei Yu laughed and said, “On weekdays, the loser drinks when playing pot throwing, but today there is already a lot of wine, how about the loser chant a poem? And I have a small request, every time you throw I want to connect a poem with one arrow, okay?" "It sounds quite interesting." Feixue laughed. "This idea is quite novel." Miss Gu said with a smile.

Seeing that no one objected, Feixue ordered her maid to fetch a cloisonné enamel throwing pot with lotus patterns and eight ivory-carved landscape arrows.Several servant girls spread a layer of orchid grass feast on the ground, and put the throwing pot on it. "Let the elder brother of the Gu family start first." Fei Yu asked the maid to pass an arrow to Mr. Gu, but Mr. Gu declined and agreed.He thought for a while and said: "Frost wind and cold hit people, plum fragrance is clear to the bone." He threw an arrow at it, but it fell on his ear.Then came Qin Yi, Qin Yi smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Mo Seming Nine Peaks, Yue Hua Dan Shuang Que." He also threw an arrow and hit the target.Feixue took the arrow, thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "The green ape screams, and the red firefly sticks green hair." Fang was about to shoot the arrow, but a woman in Tsing Yi hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, go back to the mansion." Already." Hearing it so convincingly, everyone's thoughts were subtle.Qin Yi woke up Brother Xian, and a group of people headed towards the Charity Hall.

When we arrived at Huici Hall, we saw a dignified and majestic middle-aged man in purple clothes talking with the old matriarch, his wife and second wife were on the side, and some servants brought in some boxes and cages.Qin Yi stepped forward to salute, and the old matriarch smiled with tears in his eyes: "My son, since you went to that barbarian land, I have taken care of my mother. You will be fine when you come back, why bother to make so many troubles?" Things, it was a waste of time to delay the journey." "The old lady is looking forward to the day and the night, and finally looking forward to the return of Lord Hou, now I feel at ease." The second wife said with a smile. "How can I feel at ease, I look a lot thinner than when I was in Beijing." The old lady said angrily, "It must be that the soil and water in that barbarian land are not good." I have to hide my face and snicker.Hearing this, brother Xian stepped forward and nestled into his wife's arms and said: "Mother, if grandma has a father, she won't want me anymore." The lady just smiled lovingly, without saying a word.On the contrary, Master Hou gave Brother Xian a cold look, scaring Brother Xian so much that he wished he could shrink into his wife's arms.Seeing that there were still guests, the old lady wiped away her tears, and ordered her servants to clean up the banquet and clean up the dust for her son.

After staying in Huici Hall for a while, Qin Yi and the others dispersed.Qin Yi returned to Jingsong Courtyard, but saw many servants coming and going in the courtyard.He had just returned to the house, and was instructing the servant girl to boil water and make tea, when Yizhu came in with a smile.Seeing Qin Yi take off his outer robe, she was only wearing a moon white thin shirt, and busyly took out a silver sable fur to put on Qin Yi, and said angrily: "This body is just getting better, why is it that you are greedy for cold again?" Come?" "I just came back after walking all the way, and I changed clothes when it was hot." Qin Yi replied with a smile, and tied the belt on the sable fur.As he spoke, he asked again: "Has the yearly money been distributed?" "It has been distributed early. Just now, Master Hou sent someone to send a lot of boxes and cages, and there are some delicate decorations. You should have a look." Yi Zhu replied with a smile. "What did father send?" Qin Yi asked curiously. "Do you remember everything on the list? Boxes of pearls and precious stones, jade and glass, and several big boxes planted in forests." "What kind of treasure do I see? It's either gold or jade, but is there a shortage of gold and jade decorations in this yard? " Lanyue walked in holding a white jade cloud pattern plate. "Gold and jade are not good, so what can catch the eye?" Qin Yi said with a smile. "My lord, I can't do without those few boxes of gold and jade. If I think there are few gold and jade decorations in the yard, I will ask sister Peiyu to display all those emerald jade carvings, gold and stone calligraphy and paintings, and go to the damp." Lanyue smiled. road. "What a clever girl, I can't say no to you. Anyway, since it's not a rare thing, you can pick a few suitable ones and put them away, and put the rest away." Qin Yi laughed.

While chatting and joking, a maidservant in pink came in and said, "Master Zhou, who is next to Lord Hou, is here." "Invite him in quickly." Qin Yi smiled, and sat down on the red sandalwood inlaid porcelain painting arhat couch beside him.Not long after, a middle-aged man in blue and brocade robe entered the room and saluted Qin Yi.Qin Yi said with a smile: "There's no need to be too polite, since I'm an old man beside my father, I should call him my uncle." He asked Master Zhou to sit down on the red sandalwood chair beside him.Lord Zhou didn't even dare to say that he didn't dare, he just sat down on the red sandalwood lotus leaf chair, and said: "This time Lord Hou returned to the mansion, there are fewer old people around him, it's because the servants are not doing their job well, they are actually going to A few items that Lord Hou ordered you to leave behind, I only found out when I was counting them just now, and I still look forward to your son Haihan." Saying this, Master Zhou ordered another four boxes to be carried in, and another list was presented.Qin Yi smiled slightly and said: "The words there. I have been so busy all the way, it is inevitable that I have missed a few things, and it is reasonable." He took the list and saw that there were some elegant and rare things on it, which were more precious than the gold and jade before. It's so rare, obviously it took a lot of thought.Qin Yi only glanced at it briefly, then handed the list to Lanyue.Another clever servant girl came in with a pot of tea and poured one for Master Zhou.Because Qin Yi just had a drink, he took a few sips of the hangover soup that Lanyue brought in just now.Qin Yi asked some more about the scenery of other places, and Master Zhou answered them one by one.

While we were talking, a maid in pink came in and said with a smile: "Master Zhou, Master Hou wants me to call you over?" Qin Yi said with a smile: "Since father ordered, let's go first." Master Zhou followed The maid didn't mention it in the past.
