Chapter 1253 Geng Zijuan Grandma Liu enters the Grand View Garden for the first time
Jia Mu first arranged to have lunch together in the courtyard, but there were too many people, so we later changed it to the Taiguan Tower in the Grand View Garden.
In addition to a large group of warblers and swallows, Feng Ziying found that she actually met a strange person in "A Dream of Red Mansions" - Grandma Liu.
This feeling makes Feng Ziying feel more and more that the world she lives in is probably an inadvertent bifurcation of history. It is inextricably linked to the original track of history, but the general trend of history is completely different. .
Da Zhou is a real girl in the Jianzhou, as well as Nanyang's flock of Nanyang, and even some changing Japanese Tokugawa Shogunate, what will it become?
At this time, Tsarist Russia had also conquered the Siberian Khanate. Although Yermak was dead, the Stroganov family was still advancing unremittingly towards the east. Fortunately, Godunov's becoming Tsar should plunge Tsarist Russia into chaos. stage, it should have slowed down Tsarist Russia’s attack on the East. Where will Central Asia and Siberia as a whole go in the future?
Seeing Grandma Liu, Feng Ziying found that she could actually think of so many things. When Feng Ziying came back to her senses, she found it incredible.
Looking at the dark-faced but shrewd old woman with darting eyes, Feng Ziying could roughly understand that this old woman from the suburbs of Beijing relied on this kind of agility and shrewdness to make her family live well. This was also the survival of a small person. There is nothing wrong with the way.
While Feng Ziying was filled with emotion, the so-called strange man was actually also surprised to meet such a famous official in the capital as Feng Ziying.
Although she is an old woman from the countryside, Wanping County is also the foundation of the imperial city at the foot of the emperor. His son-in-law Wang Gou'er is also a person who often goes to the city to see the world. However, his fate is unlucky. Since the decline of his ancestors, Wang Gou'er has tried hard but failed. I am rich and want to make a small living but have no capital, so I often feel sad and talk about my ideas with my old mother-in-law.
This time Grandma Liu came to Beijing and came to the Rongguo Mansion, so she naturally had some plans. In ordinary times, her son-in-law often mentioned this news story in the capital to Grandma Liu. He also mentioned that there was a luxurious figure among the in-laws of the Jia family. It was the handsome, handsome and extraordinary Xiao Feng Xiuzan in front of him.
"Old lady, we are lucky enough not to be hit by the war today in our village. There is also a war outside. There are also some local products in the village. The aunts and girls in the house will inevitably get tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas. The old woman is thinking about sending some wild vegetables and letting them eat. Let’s have a taste of it with the girls,…”
Although the words are rustic, they also reveal a certain simplicity and honesty, and of course also hide a little shrewdness.
Feng Ziying still has a good impression of Grandma Liu. Anyway, in the book, she helped the Jia family a lot in the future. If you can have a grateful heart, what else can you expect in this world?
"My dear, how old are you this year?" Mother Jia felt kind to Grandma Liu when she looked at her. In addition, her grandchildren, including Feng Ziying and Jia Baoyu, were all here today. Looking around, she saw a bustling and lively scene, and she was in a very good mood. The interest also rose.
"I am seventy-five this year, and I am not as lucky as the old lady..." Grandma Liu muttered with quail meat still stuffed in her mouth, "This chicken is too small, I am afraid the farmer has to raise such a chicken. After a while, the taste was different. Let the old woman **** one more and have a taste..."
With one sentence, everyone in the audience was amused, and the mandarin duck couldn't help laughing: "Grandma, these are quails. They are specially prepared. Each one can hold five or six big chickens, not small chickens."
"Ah?" Grandma Liu blinked, but her eyes were looking at the strange-looking frankincense pig on the table, "Then is this a pig? My old eyes are blurred, and I thought this pig has become so small, maybe it is also... "
Grandma Liu's dazed look made everyone on the table lean forward and backward. Yuanyang couldn't help but cover her bulging chest and said: "Grandma, this is really a pig, but it is just frankincense incense." The roasted Siamese pig is extraordinary, one pig is probably as powerful as two or three big pigs raised by ordinary farmers."
Grandma Liu smiled brightly, "I asked you why this taste is different. Looking at the pig-headed miniature, it looks weird and handsome, and I can't bear to eat it. It costs so much money, so I, Old Liu, won't see you after just a few mouthfuls." Now, is it worthy of a big pig?"
Hearing Grandma Liu join in the fun, Feng Ziying's strange feeling became more intense. Did she really want to witness the birth of that clear statement?
Before he could figure it out, Grandma Liu had already put down her chopsticks and said with a grin: "Old Liu, Old Liu, you eat as much as an ox. You can eat an old sow without raising your head!"
Sisters Baochai and Baoqin laughed and hugged each other. Xiangyun threw herself on the table and cried out, laughing. Daiyu laughed so hard that she fell down and started coughing. Zijuan hurriedly laughed and beat her back. The tube top was smooth; Aunt Xue couldn't hold it in anymore, and the tea in her mouth sprayed all over Tanchun's skirt. Tanchun's job fell on Yingchun.
Xiuyan and Miaoyu also hugged each other, their shoulders shrugged, and Miaoyu simply fell into Xiuyan's arms. Sisters Li Min and Li Qi also connected with each other and sprayed rice all over the floor. Wang Xifeng even laughed so hard that she fell forward and backward. , the bulging **** are rippling, confusing the eyes.
Even though she was prepared, Feng Ziying couldn't help but laugh. On this Chinese New Year, there was such a thing to make everyone happy. Seeing the smiles of the girls here, like a hundred flowers blooming, Feng Ziying felt particularly happy. Shu Tan didn't know if he would be able to see such a grand scene in the future. Just for this scene, Feng Ziying felt that she should reward Grandma Liu.
Jia Baoyu was also laughing and stamping his feet. Seeing that Feng Ziying just smiled but didn't show much, he asked: "Brother Feng, this grandma is quite interesting. She can talk like this. I'm afraid the ancestors will be reluctant to let her go. "
“Well, I do have some literary talent, I’m afraid I can catch up with me.” Feng Ziying also smiled and agreed.
This sentence made Baoyu laugh again, "Brother Feng, according to what you said, Grandma Liu can go to the Hanlin Academy..."
"People who are well versed in the realities of the countryside, if we really want them to serve as officials, they may not be inferior to those scholars who can only read rote books." Feng Ziying said casually with emotion, which made Jia Baoyu feel that this eldest brother Feng even more Nowadays, the words are so inscrutable that people can’t understand them. How can an old country woman be a better official than a scholar? Isn't this a joke?
This was lively for a while, and after lunch was finished, Jia Mu was a little tired and wanted to take a rest, so she asked the driver's mother to hold the two boats outside the archway downstairs of Daguan, so that Jia Mu could take a rest. Resting on the boat, the sun is just right at noon and there is no wind by the stream. It comes in through the boat window, which is just right for a few elders to rest.
The others made an appointment to go to the Grand View Garden, and Grandma Liu also wanted to join in the fun. Everyone thought she could join in the fun. This festival was more festive, so they all shouted and invited them to go together.
Feng Ziying, Baoyu, Jia Huan, Jia Lan, Jia Cong and others did not follow the girls and found their own way to walk.
"Uncle Shi is leaving at the beginning of the new year. Baoyu, has your marriage been settled?" Feng Ziying walked slowly with her hands behind her back and chose the corridor going east from Qinfang Pavilion.
This road is much quieter than the rows of pavilions and courtyards to the west. Bamboo fences are intertwined on both sides and willow branches are whirling. It's just that it's too early and there are no buds yet. The Cuicui Temple and Bodhidharma Temple are vaguely visible, and the Jade Emperor Temple stands at one end. .
Baoyu scratched his head and shook his head dejectedly: "I have never thought about it. The master and his wife have their own arrangements. The capital city has not been quiet in the past two years. People come in and out. I guess the master and his wife still want to wait. .”
"Wait, what are you waiting for?" Jia Zheng also mentioned it to Feng Ziying, but Feng Ziying also found it difficult. Baoyu's marriage was not easy to find a good match. People who liked the Jia family may not think highly of them. The Jia family may not be willing to go to Baoyu, and the current situation is a bit turbulent. Although Jia She and Jia Zheng are still a little confused and unable to grasp the general trend, Yuan Chun and Wang Ziteng understand it, so they dare not easily Bind the legitimate son of the Jia family to any family.
Baoyu was speechless, and Feng Ziying also felt that she had asked a question a little bit wrong. She didn't have any good suggestions, so how could the Jia family make choices and choices?
"Baoyu's marriage must be carefully considered, but when it comes to Brother Huan, it's about time, right?" Feng Ziying turned the topic to Jia Huan.
"Brother Feng, before I finished my studies, I did not consider personal matters. I have also reported this to the master and his wife, and the master and his wife agreed. Even if the master Jiangxi comes back, it will only be three years. At that time, there will be no point in talking about it. Late." Jia Huan is very resolute on this issue. He does not want to be tied to the Jia family's marriage. He still has a clear understanding of this. He does not need precious jade for his marriage, and most of it will be used in exchange, so He was even less willing to agree casually.
Feng Ziying nodded, and they walked all the way to Qinfang Gate Bridge. From here, they walked straight to Qingtang Cottage and Dongjiao Gate. They turned left and crossed Qinfang Gate Bridge and walked to the back of Zhujin Pavilion, along the broad land outside. After walking, you can always turn into an elegant place, which is the Aojingxi Pavilion.
Feng Ziying fell in love with this place as soon as she saw it. The two residences facing each other form a "concave" shape, and the recess and surroundings are surrounded by rippling water. Although the weather is still cold now, if it is summer, this place will be even more quiet and pleasant.
Seeing that Feng Ziying liked this place very much, Baoyu smiled and said: "Brother Feng usually comes to our house and if he gets tired, he can take a rest here."
The west half of the Aojingxi Hall is a large flower hall, which can be used for entertaining guests or for small gatherings to drink tea. The right side is slightly smaller, but has several rooms of different sizes. It was originally intended to be used It is a guest room, and there is also a place to rest. However, there have been no other foreign guests for more than a year. Even Li Min and Li Qi, etc., because they were considering staying for a long time, they were arranged to go to the Rose Garden in the west.
