Evening Shaohua in the Red House

It is said that Jia Lan was reading a book in the study room, and when he heard Shen Yi calling him, he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled: "Isn't Mister here to meet guests? But what's the matter?"

The chief casually replied what Governor Yang wanted to see, and Jia Lan changed his clothes and came out with him.

When Jia Lan came to the study room in the main courtyard, Jia Lan just entered the door, and saw a middle-aged man sitting on the head of the kang, wearing an indigo silk silk elastic ink round neck robe, a horn belt around his waist, and soap boots on his feet; He has a small beard and is about forty years old.

He knew that this was Master Uncle Yang Tinglun, so he immediately went up to greet him and said, "Disciple pays respects to Uncle Master." He also greeted Chu Nian and Sun Zhao, and finally greeted Shen Yi , Fang stood with his hands down.

Yang Tinglun raised his eyes to look carefully, and saw that he was wearing a satin cloak with multicolored embroidery and gold embroidery on a red background, a light blue soft silk with dark flowers and arrow sleeves, a round neck robe with arrow sleeves, a golden sky blue satin fringe gown with locks, and blue satin powder foundation on his feet. Boots, although young, are handsome and handsome, with clear eyebrows, and I fell in love with him immediately, and said with a smile, "You don't need to be formal, just sit down." He was asked to take off his cloak and sit down, and ordered the servant to swing it. A bitch, relying on Shen Yi to attack.

Jia Lan just sat down and looked at Shen Yi.

Shen Yi nodded and said: "Since it's the order of my uncle, you can just sit down."

Jia Lan just sat down.

Yang Tinglun saw that he was well-balanced, advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and liked him more and more, so he pulled him up to talk, and tested his doubts about the scriptures and historical records. , with unique insights, clear speech, and modest attitude, he was very happy, because he asked Shen Yi: "Has Lang Geer learned to compose poetry?"

Shen Yi smiled and said: "It's just a beginner, he has composed two poems, but not often."

Yang Tinglun became more and more interested, so he wanted to test him, but he couldn't think of any suitable questions for a while, so he asked everyone: "What questions do you think are suitable?"

Shen Yi waved his hands and said with a smile: "You don't need to ask me about this, you can figure it out yourself."

The three of Sun Zhao discussed it for a while, and finally Chu Nian smiled and said, "Why don't you use "Winter Snow" as the title and write a seven-character quatrain."

Yang Tinglun nodded. The topic was not very difficult, so he smiled at Jia Lan: "You can go to that table and work slowly, don't be too busy." Yang Tinglun was afraid that he would not be able to do it in a hurry.

Jia Lan didn't panic, she agreed, walked to the table, lowered her head and thought about it, and after about a stick of incense, she picked up the pen, wrote a poem of Qijue, and handed it to Yang Tinglun with both hands.

Yang Tinglun not

Looking at the poems anxiously, I looked at the handwriting first, and saw that the fonts are elegant and elegant, and I have already seen the strength of character. I couldn't help but nodded secretly, and then I read his poems, and I couldn't help praising: "Okay, the idea is new and ingenious, don't worry about it. Interesting." After finishing speaking, he handed it to Shen Yi, and said with a smile, "Ju Qing will also take a look."

Shen Yi looked at it for a while, shook his head and said with a smile: "It's just childish words, brother, don't praise him too much, after all, he is young and inexperienced, the poems he made are too precise, and the wording is not very elegant."

Yang Tinglun said: "It's rare to have such insight at such a young age, why be too demanding, I see it very well."

Chu Nian and Sun Zhao looked at it and nodded in praise: "Not only the poem, but also the word is written very beautifully. It can be seen that Su Ri has put in a lot of effort."

Coincidentally, at this moment, the young servant brought up a bowl of fresh fish and sheep, and Yang Tinglun ate a few pieces with his chopsticks. Because of something touched, he made a sentence. He wanted to compare Jia Lan again, and laughed: "I just got a sentence from eating fish." Shanglian, can Lang Geer be a couple?"

Shen Yi knew the background of his little apprentice, and seeing that his senior was trying to judge, he didn't stop him, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether he is right or not."

Yang Tinglun said: "The fragrance of fish floats thousands of miles away."

Chu Nian and the others stopped talking to see how Jia Lan would respond.

Jia Lan was not in a hurry, thought for a while, and then said: "The shadow of the sun reflects a thousand sails."

Sun Zhao immediately clapped the case and said, "Okay!"

Yang Tinglun Nianxu nodded, and came out with another pair: "The spring nest bird dreams of the moon among the flowers."

Jia Lan replied rightly: "The sky is in the mirror of fish swimming in autumn water."

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Chu Nian also said with a smile: "I also have a sentence, I can't think of a second couplet for a while, and Lan Geer is also right." Because he said: "Mei Ying wrote about the fragrance of the window."

Jia Lan thought for a while and said, "The sound of bamboo knocking on Hulu Wuhen."

Yang Tinglun clapped his hands and praised: "Wonderful, where did you come from!"

Sun Zhao was also full of admiration, nodded and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother Lan has grown more and more."

Chu Nian was also convinced, raised his glass and said with a smile: "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. It really is a formidable young generation. I am happy today, drink a full glass!"

Shen Yi listened to his brothers and sisters praise Jia Lan, and he was really proud in his heart, but he was very humble on his face, holding up the wine and saying, "Please have a drink."

Yang Tinglun drank it down in one gulp, and seeing Jia Lan sitting quietly beside her, her eyes sparkling and her cheeks slightly red, but she was not proud of herself, she couldn't help but love her more, and said to Shen Yi: "This child is really extraordinary, Jie Qing took it away. A good disciple." After thinking for a while, he untied a white suet white jade unicorn pendant from his waist and handed it to Jia Lan, and said with a smile, "Today's first meeting, this jade pendant is my favorite.

The ones you wear every day are not worth anything, just take them away. "

Jia Lan saw that the jade pendant was exquisitely carved, the jade was warm and delicate, crystal clear and flawless, so she knew it was not ordinary, but she dared not accept such a valuable thing, she glanced at Shen Yi, saw him nod slightly, and thanked him for accepting it.

Still drinking here, Shen Yi wanted to call Jia Lan in.Yang Tinglun felt reluctant to leave, and said: "Sit down again." He moved the chair and sat down by himself.Seeing him sitting obediently and not moving his chopsticks much, he couldn't help laughing and said: "This kid is too honest, he is from his own family, so don't be so rigid, just eat some fruit." All kinds of candied dried fruits, such as cherries, red bayberries, lychees, etc., were brought to Jia Lan.

Jia Lan thanked her, took a red orange and peeled it to eat.

For this festival, everyone was very happy, and more than half of the jar of Huiquan wine was eaten.

After a while, the wine and vegetables were removed, the tea and fruit were reorganized, and they drank some tea before they left.

In the evening, when Jialan returned home from school, she didn't have time to change her clothes, so she went to greet Mrs. Wang first. When she got to the upper room, she saw her mother was there, so she hurried forward to say hello.

Mrs. Wang took Jia Lan to talk beside her, and then asked the girl to bring tea fruit, and Jia Lan picked up two pine nuts and ate them.

Li Wan asked, "Why did you come back so late today?"

Jia Lan said: "Today, Mr. and several uncles had a small gathering, and the child was also called to sit for a while, so he came back late."

After finishing speaking, he talked about today's poems and pairings, and took out the jade pendant that Yang Tinglun gave. Mrs. Wang was very happy when she heard the words, she looked at it carefully and said, "This jade pendant is not easy to have. Your mother will keep it for you."

Li Wan asked the embroidered bamboo to take it away, and said, "It can be put in the same box as what the master and wife rewarded earlier."

Xiuzhu agreed to go.

Li Wan then asked Jia Lan about the couplets in the poems he wrote today, and Jia Lan said them one by one. Li Wan nodded after hearing this.

It's the twelfth lunar month now, and the year is approaching. The two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia are managing the year's affairs, making arrangements inside and outside, exchanging peach charms, pasting door gods, wiping altars, hanging lanterns, inside and outside, they are all busy.

All the halls and halls of the courtyards are replaced with lanterns and beddings, the family schools are replaced by Confucianism, the diners are relatives, and the labor money of each clerk must be checked and sent.

Kitchen compradors, and other businesses should collect accounts, buy New Year's clothes for the house owners and girls, head jewelry, New Year's gifts, and rewards for New Year's servants, etc., must also be prepared accordingly.

There are also relatives and family friends from all over the place, who usually come and go to the homes of civil and military officials, as well as relatives, friends and clans.

There were no less than a thousand things, Sister Feng and Ping'er were so busy that they didn't even have time to drink tea, and even Li Wan was pulled to help with some chores.

Li Wan simply reported to Mrs. Jia Muwang and asked Sanchun sisters to help out and learn some ways of managing housekeepers.

Only Baoyu School has a holiday, so I have nothing to do at home. It's not a very important place outside, and I don't go out to socialize, except to go to Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang's place for morning and evening, and only hang out in the inner house, or with girls such as Xiren and Qingwen. They joked, or chatted with Daiyu, Baochai and Sanchun sisters, or had wine and theater with Feng Ziying and a group of children, and they were very comfortable.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was already the end of the day, and the Rongguo Mansion was hung with lanterns and festoons, making it extraordinarily dazzling.

Getting up in the morning, from Jia Mu down, all those who have orders are put into the palace according to their makeup. When they come back from the year, Jia Mu first offered heaven, earth, Buddha, horses, etc. in her courtyard.

When Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen returned to the palace, they first made offerings in front of the Stove King, and then everyone went to the ancestral hall to salute and pay homage to the image before returning to their rooms to rest.

Li Wan resigned at Mrs. Jia's and Mrs. Wang's, and then went to Mrs. Xing's.

On this day, the gates of the two mansions of Rongning and Ningxia were all open, and there was a din of cars and horses in front of the gates, and the voices of people were chaotic.

Each house bid farewell to each other's new year, and the courtyard was full of bright lights and candles. It was really full of flowers, and everyone from top to bottom was happy

Li Wan went to Dongfu You's place to resign and came back, got off the car at the second gate, and walked all the way, only to see the red and green decorations among the flowers and trees, which is so ingenious.

All the daughters-in-law and maidservants have put on new clothes and skirts. They are all pink and fragrant, and they are full of flowers, which is dizzying for the eyes.

When I arrived in the courtyard, Danju embroidered bamboo brought everyone up to salute. Li Wan ordered people to disperse the purses and lucky bags, and said with a smile to everyone: "Today's festival, there is no need for so many people to serve you. Go and play as you please." .”

Except for Danju who stayed behind to be called, Xiuzhu Suyun and the others all went to talk to their close friends.

The little girls were even more delighted, they all went out to visit like birds out of the cage when they got the order.

The courtyard was quiet for a while, Li Wan felt a little tired after getting up in the morning to socialize for a long time, so after changing his homely clothes, he took a nap on the imperial concubine's couch by the window.

Thinking of today's excitement, I can't help but sigh inwardly: Now that Jia's mansion is full of flowers and brocades, and the fire is cooking oil, who would have thought that it would end like that in the future.

In the evening, when Mrs. Wang went to the room, there were three tables for the Eight Immortals, offering god papers, and in front of them were dried and fresh fruits, vegetarian dishes, powder soup, and three animals.In front of the altar is hung a scarlet cloud satin two-color gold Fugui Changchun table surround, and the floor is covered with scarlet foreign felt

.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone came to Jiamu's main hall to watch the new year.

Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng accompanied Jia Mu to wipe the dominoes. Li Wan, Baochai, Daiyu, Baoyu and Sanchun sisters also divided into three or four tables, throwing the champion chip and laughing around.

Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian led several groups of children to drink and have fun.

It was the time of the New Year's Eve amidst the sound of firecrackers. Mother Jia couldn't hold on, so she went back to her room to rest. Mrs. Wang waited for a while and went back to her room.

Firecrackers were set off in the two houses, and the sound of the vibration continued all night long. It is really impossible to describe the scene of prosperity and happiness.

The next day was the first day of the first lunar month, Emperor Yongyuan took the throne, the prince ascended the throne, and changed Yuan Qingde.

Jia Zheng and others all went to the palace to congratulate, and Jia Mu and others who had the edict all wore court clothes according to their ranks, and led the crowd into the palace to congratulate and salute.

After the court congratulations, all the people received the banquet and went back to their homes.

Wang Tuxi of Ningjun came out of the palace gate in a sedan chair, and saw Jia Zhenhou talking with Cheng Engong of Shoushanbo's Mansion from a distance, he couldn't help sneering, and lowered the sedan chair curtain.

Back in the mansion, Tu Xisi thought about the scene of the new emperor ascending the throne today, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he dropped the blue and white porcelain vase with a bang.

Everyone outside the room looked at each other, all of them turned pale, lowered their heads and dared not speak.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a middle-aged man dressed as a long attendant replying at the door: "Master, the slave has something to report."

Tu Xi restrained his anger, and said to the guard at the door: "Let him in, what's the matter?"

The man came in with a bow, whispered in Tu Xi's ear, and finally said: "How should the Princess handle it now, please show me the prince?"

Tu Xi missed the throne, and was already furious in his heart. When he heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "What kind of princess is she, but she was born by a servant girl, and she did such ridiculous things. Seed, now is the critical moment, there is no room for any mistakes, let her see and handle the message."

Since he wanted the throne, he didn't want to keep Qin Keqing, a sister who was full of stigma, let alone the daughter of a maidservant in the palace, something that was not successful enough to fail, it would be a burden to keep.

The long follower hesitated and said: "But that uncle Zhen from Ningguo Mansion..."

Tu Xi sneered when he heard this, and said, "Do you think that Jia Zhen is some kind of infatuated person? She's just a drunk, a woman, just find another one for him."

Then what Jia Zhen likes is Qin Keqing's beauty, there is no real affection, when Qin Keqing dies, she will fall in love with another woman in a short time.

Although this generation of Jia family males are incompetent, the brothers Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua back then

But he is good at fighting and has a high prestige in the army. Although he is gone now, many of the old Japanese generals are still in the court. To this day, there are still many people in the army who are loyal to Jia's family. And he wouldn't take a fancy to that incompetent Jia Zhen.

The chief met casually and said respectfully: "Master, don't worry, the slave will go and spread the word."

The author has something to say: Let Lang Geer meet his father-in-law first (seriously doubt that the little cutie who guessed in the comments peeked at the author's outline...)

ps: The couplets in this article are all from Baidu.
