old lady in red

Chapter 162

After all, Baijia Village is a rural place.

Shimei ordered Yingchun, Xichun, Tanchun, Xiangyun, and Daiyu to all dress up as boys, wearing the same sky-blue muslin Confucian robes.

Shimei dressed up as a private school teacher and took the students out for a trip.

Travel thousands of miles and read thousands of books.

When Jin Day heard this, he hurriedly dissuaded him: "Old lady, this journey is a bit far..."

Shi Mei said: "Is it farther than Fragrant Mountain?"

Jin Da is silent, although Xiangshan is far away, there is a grand master stationed nearby.

The Grand Master is in charge of everything.

Fragrant Hills is twenty miles away from Baijia Village, so the Grand Master can't cover it for a while.

Seeing that Jin was in a dilemma, Shi Mei said, "It's only thirty miles away from the city. We go there for an hour and play for an hour. When we go to Baijia Village, we don't climb mountains. We only fish. We have lunch and return immediately. Shen Shi will be able to go home."

Jin Da was silent.

He said, but no one in this house can persuade the old lady.

Shi Mei said again: "Think about it, your aunts and grandmas, once this year is over, how can you go out to play again? What's the big deal, how many more scouts do you bring?"

If Shi Mei is willing to go there with great fanfare, Jin Da has no objection at all, just bring dozens of guards with him when the time comes.

The key point is that the old lady likes to be light and simple.

Jin Da knew what the old lady was capable of, but he was afraid that something might happen.

The old lady was not allowed to take the old lady with her, saying that she was afraid of revealing her identity as a woman and attracting attention.

This is where Kim is in trouble.

The big and small masters in the Piansheng Mansion all defended the old lady, and even the eldest wife supported the old lady to travel.

Jin Da had no choice but to agree to his master.

He himself acted as Shi Mei's housekeeper, and with eight scouts, he acted as a coachman to guard the courtyard.

The carriage cannot use the Zhulun canopy cart of Rongfu, but the large carriage used by the housekeeper to go out.

Shimei is sitting with Daiyu.

It is just right to welcome the spring, cherish the spring and explore the spring. Xiangyun sits on the hatchback.

There is also a green mule cart behind, which is dedicated to pulling pots, stoves and food, as well as fishing tools, fishing rods and baskets.

After Shui Ling gave birth to Jia Lan, she no longer liked fish.

The peach blossom fish boiled with sauerkraut is delicious.

Shi Mei used to be too embarrassed to argue with Shui Ling.

Now Shuiling doesn't like to eat, and Jia Lian doesn't fish anymore.

Shi Mei was also embarrassed to let Jia Lian delay the emperor's grandson's study for the sake of her own appetite.

Today, by outing, I happened to be fishing by the way, to satisfy my hunger.

Although Rongfu's carriages do not have rubber wheels, they have been modified to be more shockproof.

In addition to the high-quality leather used for the Futu under the car, the wheels are also wrapped in cowhide.

The seats in the compartment are all wrapped in leather, which is more shockproof than ordinary cars.

Sitting in such a carriage is not to mention walking on flat ground, but it is considered smooth.

Coupled with the limited speed of the carriage, it is still very comfortable to sit on.

At the foot of the mountain in Baijia Village, there is an invisible river beach and stream

Greeting the Spring, Cherishing the Spring and Exploring the Spring These boudoirs, who have never seen such an endless river beach, are immediately overjoyed.

Pebbles are the first time I saw them.

A group of girls ran first on the cobblestones.

Then, running into the fine sand area will not work.

It's better to welcome the spring and cherish the spring, Daiyu, they have kung fu.

Tanchun and Xiangyun don't like kung fu, they almost rush to the sky.

Just stood up and fell.

The good thing is that falling on the sand doesn't hurt.

Shi Mei stood by the river, keeping an eye on the children so they wouldn't fall into the stream.

While watching the village on the slope.

Except for the familiarity of the river beach, Shimei feels back to modern times, and there is no trace of Baijia Village in her previous life.

The palace is gone.

The Xianwang Temple is gone.

There are no more stone bridges.

Come to think of it, the granite stone bridge should also be a supporting project for the Xianwang Temple.

Today's Baijia Village is a desolate small mountain village.

Without the Xianwang Temple, naturally Cao Xueqin's foothold could not be found.

Jin Da led someone to dig back a basket of bait, but saw Shi Mei standing by the river in a daze.

Can't help asking: "The old lady has been here before?"

Shi Mei smiled: "I used to visit my father when I was very young, but now it has changed so much that I can't recognize it anymore."

Jin Da had an epiphany when he heard the words. No wonder the old lady insisted on coming here. It turned out that she missed the old Bao Linghou.

Last night, he thought the old lady was too colorful.

There are so many scenery in Kyoto, just in Wujun Wangfu, you can enjoy it for ten days and a half months without repeating the scenery.

But it turned out that he came to pay homage to the old Hou Ye.

Jin Da felt ashamed.

I feel so sorry for the old lady.

The scouts like Jin Da have a lot of experience in fishing, and the fishing platforms are all built in the shade of willows.

Shi Mei greeted Yingchun Xichun and Xiangyun who ran wildly: "Come here, don't sweat."

Haruhi wants to cover.

Children wear thick clothes, and they cannot dry in time when they sweat, and they are easy to get sick.

Spring is another peak season for morbidity.

Xiangyun was mischievous and ran to the farmland on the slope to study.

Yingchun dragged her back.

This picture is very familiar.

Shi Mei stared at the farmland on the shore in a daze, as if she had returned to the time when sweet potatoes were cultivated in Jinling.

Since leaving Jinling, Shi Mei seldom deals with Tianmu.

Although the farm now also grows sweet potatoes.

However, the planting technology has matured.

The three-year-old children in the farm know how to turn over vines and cut vines, so there is no need for Shi Mei to stare at them.

At that time, I really had the drive to be 30 years old.

He devoted himself to studying the cultivation of sweet potatoes, hoping to save the people and Rongfu.

Fortunately, God made a loophole and let her take advantage of it.

Shi Mei couldn't help laughing. At that time, Jia Lian was only five years old.

In a blink of an eye, Jia Lian was already 25.

The memory of growing sweet potatoes seems to be a long time ago, like a lifetime away.

When Yingchun came, they found that grandma was in a daze.

Daiyu couldn't help shaking Shimei: "Grandma, what are you looking at?"

Only then did Shi Mei wake up.

First, check the fishing platforms for the children one by one. They must be stable on the stools and pedals.

Shimei asked the fishing pedal to be two feet away from the stream.

Moreover, each child is guarded by a guard.

All these arrangements were made, and Shi Mei sat in the middle of the children.

He started fishing in his hand, but let go of his spiritual sense, covering the children.

Keep the children out of your sight.

Half an hour later, Xiangyun ran away early, and went to pick flowers and willows again.

Tanchun was very envious, but she peeked at her grandmother, not daring to move easily.

To welcome the spring and cherish the spring, Daiyu is still fishing with the old gods.

Shi Mei knew that the reason for welcoming the spring and cherishing the spring Daiyu was because of her foundation in meditation practice.

Tanchun Xiangyun felt that meditating and vomiting were the work of nuns.

Hou Men's daughter should study and practice essays.

This is the fate of everyone, and Shi Mei can't do anything about it.

At this time, Shi Mei had already caught more than a dozen peach blossom fish.

There are only three or five pieces of Daiyu to welcome the spring and cherish the spring.

It was Shi Mei who released her spiritual power into the water, luring the Peach Blossom Fish to bite the hook.

If it weren't for the fear that the granddaughters would be suspicious, let alone a dozen or so, a hundred or so would have been caught.

Furthermore, Shi Mei is not that greedy.

People leave offspring, grass stays root.

This fish also needs to keep a species.

Shi Mei felt that enough was enough, so she ordered Jin Da to prepare firewood and bury the pot for cooking.

After the picnic, take the children to the farmer's house to catch a wind and see how the children of the farmer's family spend their childhood.

After playing for half an hour, it's time to return.

Jin Dade ordered to bury the pot to cook.

Jin Dazao sold a few one-year-old roosters at the farmhouse. After plucking and cleaning them, he wiped them with salt and seasonings, wrapped them in lotus leaves and buried them under the stove.

Put stones on top and start to cook the rice.

Shi Mei took the children to clean up the fish.

I like it when fishing, but I hate it when I clean it up.

Shi Mei didn't allow them to run away, and asked them to pick up flat and thin pebbles to scrape off the fish scales.

Shi Mei scraped off three of them, and said, "I don't need your help, I can scrape the fish I caught myself."

Xiangyun giggled: "Look, this is the benefit of my not being able to fish."

Shi Mei said: "Eat as much as you scrape, and you can't eat without working."

Xiangyun pouted when he heard this.

Although the aunt loves her very much.

However, if she is naughty and does not study well in school, she will be punished.

Not only did my aunt not feel distressed, but all the snacks that night were cancelled.

She was also asked to write three more articles that hadn't been finished.

My aunt also said that important things should be said three times.

Only then can I remember.

Therefore, every time I was lazy and missed writing a big character, I would be fined to write three articles in the end.

No matter how you act like a baby, it won't work.

Later, even Baoyu, who likes to slander the most, didn't dare to be lazy.

The most powerful tactic my aunt used to deal with Baoyu was for him to go home and accompany his mother to eat fast and chant scriptures.

In fact, Xiangyun was also afraid that one day her aunt would punish her and let her go back to live with her second aunt and third aunt, it would be endless suffering.

She would rather go to Biyun Temple to accompany her mother to chant sutras.

Among the children, Shi Mei is the most tolerant towards Xiang Yun.

For nothing else, no one really loves Xiangyun except her.

Xiangyun's mother, Mrs. Shi Nai, is still alive today. Although her health is getting worse and worse, she is just lingering on her last breath.

However, she is still alive.

This year, Xiangyun is ten years old.

It's not the death of a baby parent anymore.

Shi Mei has tried her best.

Shi Mei forbids Xiangyun to be lazy, because Xiangyun will rely on herself the most in the future.

Xiangyun knew that her great-aunt would do what she said.

She likes to eat fish, after thinking about it, she honestly rolled up her sleeves and went to work.

When Xiangyun really decided to work, he did a better job than Yingchun Xichun.

Xiangyun's culinary skills are now the best among the sisters.

This is what Shi Mei deliberately did.

She was going to advise Shi Nai to find a new Jinshi for Xiangyun.

The salary of a seventh-rank official is not much.

Xiangyun took up the post following her husband, so naturally she couldn't do without cooking skills.

Furthermore, in this era where love is not allowed, sometimes, good cooking skills are also a bargaining chip to attract a husband.

Shi Mei led a group of children and granddaughters to clean the fish scales. Looking from a distance, it was a group of old men leading a group of young masters to smash the fish.

Suddenly, Shi Mei stopped moving.

Because, Shi Mei heard the sound of horseshoes and wheels.

someone is coming!

Shi Mei quickly took a picture in the water.

In order to dress up as a rough guy, she changed the color of her face into a wheat color today.

Then, Shi Mei told several granddaughters: "Call me Master Shi in front of outsiders."

The hearts of Yingchun and Xichun froze, and they all stopped their work.

They also heard the sound of carriages and horses in the distance.

Shi Mei looked at the girls.

Fortunately, they were all disguised today, all with wheat-colored skin.

Shi Mei said: "Continue to work."

Then, Shi Mei's spiritual consciousness covered it, and she sighed in her heart: It's really unlucky to meet these grandparents.

At this time, the cooking pot was already buried, and it would be unreasonable to leave if he got up.

If they said they had finished eating, they would obviously be lying, the pot was stuffy with rice, and they were cleaning up the small fish.

The scouts are picking up wild vegetables and radishes.

The broth in the copper hanging jar has boiled, and the aroma is overflowing.

Shi Mei had no choice but to accept her fate, let's see the trick and then break it.

Over there, Jia Lian had already exchanged greetings with Jin Da: "Uncle Jin, why did this happen?"

Jin Da did not meet the emperor.

However, how many people are there in this world who can be served by the second master?

Jin Da guessed it too.

Jin Da had no choice but to say: "Come out for a stroll with the young masters."

Shi Mei originally planned to pretend to be a member of the Back Street tribe.

When he found Lin Ruhai, he knew that there was no way to cover up this matter.

Jia Lian can connect secretly, but Lin Ruhai cannot.

Shi Mei felt that a trivial matter should not cause the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Lin Ruhai is not very familiar with the disguised mother-in-law.

However, he recognized his daughter at a glance.

There is no need to guess Shi Mei's identity.

Besides the mother-in-law, who else in the Rong Mansion has the guts?

If it is a female relative, His Majesty will naturally avoid it.

The mother-in-law disguised herself as a scholar again.

Lin Ruhai raised his forehead: The emperor is in person, he doesn't know how to address him.

Jia Lian was taken aback for a moment, and went forward to report to Emperor Jiahe.

Emperor Jiahe didn't get out of the car: "Who is it?"

Jia Lian said, "I'm also here for a picnic. It looks like I haven't eaten yet. It's the same when we go to the river beach in the south."

However, the river beach in the south is a bit shady, not as beautiful as the river beach here, and the fish is not as delicious as here.

Emperor Jiahe pondered, now he is a bird of fright.

The little emperor's grandson probably lacked playmates, so he said crisply: "Grandfather, it seems that Mr. took the students out for an excursion. It's just a group of children. It's okay, why don't we go together?"

Shi Mei was preparing to be deported, so they went to the river beach in the south.

However, Emperor Jiahe said: 'Okay, let's go together'.

Then, Jia Lian came over to approach him.

The grandparents and grandchildren are facing each other, and their skills are poor for a while.

Shi Mei said: "Do you want me to pay His Majesty a greeting?"

Jia Lian also hesitated, and said: "You continue to have a picnic here, and if His Majesty does not summon you, you will not move.

When you're done, you head back quickly. "

Shi Mei said: "Shall we return right away?"

Jia Lian said: "The emperor's grandson probably wants to make friends with his younger sisters."

Shi Mei supported her forehead, praying in her heart not to show her flaws.

Then, the old prince took over the Diaoyutai of the Shimeis with ease.

The guards around the old prince were surrounded.

Shi Mei let out a sigh of relief.

Then, the emperor's grandson came here.

Shuiyang was very polite, and bowed his hands in salute: "This old gentleman invites you, and the students are polite."

Shi Mei turned her body to the side, not accepting his salute, but returned the salute with her hands: "Young master is polite, but what's the matter?"

Shuiyang said: "Are you preparing grilled fish? Can I participate?"

Xiangyun interrupted: "Not only do we want grilled fish, we also have beggar chicken..."

Shuiyang was very curious and asked, "What is a beggar chicken?"

Shi Mei laughed and said, "It's not beggar's chicken, but lotus leaf chicken. It's just using new lotus leaves to wrap the chicken and bury it under the stove. When the food on it is cooked, the lotus leaf chicken at the bottom of the pot is also cooked.

Because it is wrapped in lotus leaves, it tastes like lotus leaves, so it is called lotus leaf chicken. "

Xiangyun was very clever, and he was busy describing it: "Yes, it's lotus leaf chicken, I'm always wrong."

Xiangyun giggled while talking.

Shuiyang was obviously stunned for a moment, then smiled.

The smart grandson recognized Xiangyun as a girl.

But he was a little strange, the women in the palace competed one by one and the other was fair.

Why is this girl so dark?

Looking at the hand, it is also the same black.

It is estimated that he has been naughty on this river bank all day long.

Shi Mei was really helpless.

Fortunately, Shuiyang doesn't seem to care that they are women.

Although Jia and Emperor said that they were the same, there were clear barriers between the two.

Sitting next to Emperor Jiahe, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but look this way a few more times.

Shi Mei quickly started cooking and dug out the beggar chicken.

Afterwards, Shimei decides to give Shuiyang one.

Shuiyang was very happy, and handed the branch in his hand to Xiangyun, and twisted the beggar chicken to show his grandfather's merits.

Jia Lian followed Shuiyang back home step by step.

Emperor Jiahe asked, "Well, have you gotten to know him so quickly?"

Shuiyang said: "They are very interesting.

Grandfather, do you know that they are women, especially that girl, although she looks dark, she likes to chatter and is very funny. "

Emperor Jiahe said: "You like it very much, let her be your companion?"

Shuiyang was stunned for a moment: "I still don't want it.

In this way, her parents should miss her. "

Emperor Jiahe was interested, and since his grandson liked it, he would pay some money to buy it.

Lin Ruhai was nervous, not knowing which girl Shuiyang liked.

Jia Lian reported by ear: "Your Majesty, this girl probably cannot follow the emperor's grandson."

Emperor Jiahe said, "Why?"

Jia Lian said: "That teacher is the grandmother of the lower official."

Emperor Jiahe was very surprised, but there was a smile in his eyes.

Emperor Jiahe got up and came this way.

Shuiyang held Emperor Jiahe's hand and was very nervous: "Grandfather, grandson doesn't like that black girl, he just finds it interesting, and doesn't like her following around every day."

Emperor Jiahe said, "Yes, I see."

Jia Lian followed step by step, and by the way sent a voice transmission to her grandmother: Your Majesty knows, it's revealed.

Shi Mei knew about it a long time ago, but she didn't expect that things would go wrong because of Xiangyun, a talker.

Shi Mei poked Xiangyun: "Do you know, because you love to talk, and the young master's grandfather said that he wanted to buy you to go home and talk with the young master?

Do you want to? "

Xiangyun cried out in fright: "No, I don't want to be a slave!"

When Emperor Jiahe came over, he was a little embarrassed when he heard this sentence.

Shi Mei hurriedly coaxed Xiangyun: "I'm teasing you."

Xiangyun looked like a monkey face, and the crying stopped abruptly: "Really?"

At this time, Emperor Jiahe's grandfather and grandson had already approached.

Shuiyang looked at his grandfather imploringly, shaking his hand.

Emperor Jiahe let go of Shuiyang with a smile: "Go ahead and play, grandfather is joking."

At this time Shi Mei bowed and cupped her hands and said: "Shi has met the old man."

Emperor Jiahe stared at Shi Mei, then turned his face away: Although the fat girl is old, she is also the wife of a courtier.

Emperor Jiahe said, "You are having a good day."

"Thanks to the blessing of heaven, the world will be peaceful, and the lives of ordinary people will become more and more prosperous."

Shi Mei drooped her eyes, afraid of meeting Long Sha again.

There is no possibility of leaping into the void with the Qi watching technique.

Her current skills are sufficient, and she doesn't need Long Sha to refine her spiritual power.

Emperor Jiahe snorted: "You are very good at talking, is the black girl from your family?"

Shi Mei said: "No. Baoling is a historian. Her father, Shi Nai, has passed away, and her mother has been seriously ill. It's only been in the past two years."

Emperor Jiahe didn't expect that the funny black girl had this kind of background.

This is too unlucky and really inappropriate.

Emperor Jiahe said: "You seem to have a brother of a similar age in your family?"

Is this missing Baoyu?

Baoyu is like a dragon's egg treasured by Wang's family, so it's fine if he doesn't want Shuiyang to serve him.

Shi Mei said: "The children in our family look for reading companions, they are all brothers from the clan.

One is that the fat and water do not fall into the fields of outsiders, and the first-born branches promote the common ones.

Second, strengthen the feelings of the brothers.

Classmates read together, and we will be bound by interests in the future. We are brothers living and dying in the trenches.

As the saying goes: Brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers in battle. "

Emperor Jiahe smiled.

Looking at Yingchun and the others: "You really dote on children, the princesses in the palace are not as comfortable as them."

The princess landed in the palace and grew up married.

The princess likes the winter hunting feast the most, and she releases it once a year.

Shi Mei said: "A girl's life is like a grass seed, falling with the wind.

Whether it will fall into fertile soil or barren and desolate land in the future is hard to predict.

It was their most relaxed days at their natal home.

The life of her natal family is not satisfactory, and the fate of a woman's life is too bitter. "

Emperor Jiahe was laughed at: "Did Mrs. Shi fall on fertile soil or barren land?"

Shi Mei cupped her hands: "Thank God, it's fertile soil."

Emperor Jiahe saw Shimei glance at the children from time to time, and said goodbye: "I will get something if I come out today.

The power of sweet potatoes, I remember. "

Shi Mei relaxed, although she didn't like Baoyu very much, after all, she was a grandson, so she was reluctant to send her to the palace as a servant.

Besides, I was afraid that Baoyu would cause trouble to the family.

Emperor Jiahe's words were true.

Today, although there are droughts, floods, and locust plagues within the four seas.

However, the number of people reported by various regions has been increasing year by year.

The number of lands also increased.

Taxes were also increased.

This shows that the people live and work in peace and contentment.

In the imperial court, Emperor Jiahe could boast that he was a righteous king, so God blessed him.

Shi Mei met her face to face, but he wanted to say a word of sincere gratitude.

Shi Mei looked at Jiahe Di's aging backs, and held his immature grandson by the hand.

It looks so pitiful!

At this time, Emperor Jiahe suddenly turned his head and said, "Your skill in making tea is very good, I like it very much!"

This is for the Rong Mansion to continue to pay tribute!

Shi Mei cupped her hands: "Yes!"

Shi Mei took the granddaughters a little further away, then hurriedly ate something, and ordered Jin Da to set off for the return journey.

After Shi Mei bowed her hands to Emperor Jiahe, she just took her granddaughter into the car.

On the way back, Xiangyun, who liked to chatter the most, became a dull gourd.

Shi Mei patted Xiangyun: "From now on, when facing unfamiliar people, you must keep your mouth shut, and beware of misfortune coming out of your mouth."

Xiangyun agreed.

Shi Mei looked around at Yingchun Xichun and Tanchun: "You too."

Yingchun Xichun was still a little confused, but Daiyu guessed the identities of the old man and Shuiyang.

Because, she knew that her father was the emperor's grandson's master.

Yingchun quietly asked Shimei: "Sister Xiangyun is not in danger, is she? Who is that old man?"

Why did the second brother follow him? "

Xichun said: "Second elder brother is a doctor of the Ministry of War, is he the Minister of the Ministry of War?"

Yingchun said: "No, the second elder brother is the imperial bodyguard of the fourth grade..."

Tanchun exclaimed: "Ah..."

They are all children with wisdom roots, and their mouths are so scared that they can put eggs in their mouths.
