Number of People

  Chapter 1080 Encounter in the Geng Scroll Garden

   I have to say that the decline of the Jia Mansion has become more and more obvious in recent years.

  This can be felt from the mentality and momentum of these servants as outsiders.

  Looking at their flattering attitude towards themselves today, there is certainly a special relationship between themselves and the Jia family, but a young man can easily get in and out of a place like the Grand View Garden, which is almost purely for women, so he can know a thing or two.

You must know that there are not only girls like Baochai, Baoqin, and Daiyu who can be regarded as related to me, but also Yingchun, Xiangyun, Tanchun, Xichun, Xiuyan, etc. who can only be regarded as family friends with me. An innocent woman, and even a widow like Li Wan who needs to strictly draw a line with herself.

  Looking at their performance, no matter male or female servants, they all look at ease, which shows that this kind of strict discipline in the past is slowly but irreversibly relaxing.

Perhaps in a few days, the embroidered spring sac incident may be staged in Jia's mansion. It may not be any one of the people in the book "Dream of Red Mansions". The lethargy and laziness brought about made the subordinates naturally relax their requirements.

But now Feng Ziying is naturally not qualified to point out anything, and he is even a beneficiary of this situation. For example, he can go in and out of the Grand View Garden now, drink and have fun in Yihong Courtyard at night, and even quietly sleep with a certain woman at night In the boudoir, I am afraid that no one will know, or if they know, no one will interfere.

  Ten years ago, I'm afraid this is all unimaginable.

  He sighed a little in his heart, but Feng Ziying still had a smile on his face, and walked in through the door very chicly.

"Grandma Xia, why, didn't you say that no one can enter?" A doorman said cheerfully: "Usually when we take a step inside, you are always black-faced and blue-faced, why are you almost pouted when Uncle Feng came today? Let him step on your back to enter the door?"

"Fuck! Feng San, don't you take a pee to take care of yourself? You also deserve the surname Feng?" Mrs. Xia looked disdainful, and almost spit on Feng San's face with a mouthful of phlegm, "Who is Uncle Feng? Even if the two masters and ancestors are here, they will also let Uncle Feng in with a smile! Miss Bao is about to enter Feng's house, and Miss Lin is only a matter of time. Uncle Feng will go in and have a look. Who can stop it?"

"Besides, what does Uncle Feng do? Don't talk about the Grand View Garden, even if it is forbidden by the imperial palace, he has swaggered in countless times. I never heard that Uncle Feng was invited into the palace by Long Live to reward him as soon as he returned to Beijing. , your family may not have even heard the voice of Long Live Lord, how can you compare with Uncle Feng?"

   "Yes, yes, Mrs. Xia, I was wrong, I shouldn't have teased you, according to what you said, Uncle Feng in this capital city can even pass by." Feng San was not annoyed, and said with a salivating face and a smile.

   "Hey, don't tell me, Uncle Feng is now an official in Yongping Mansion, and he might return to Shuntian Mansion to become an official in two years. Do you think this is the capital of Chengping?" Mrs. Xia became more and more eloquent at this time.

  Feng Ziying naturally did not expect that the servants at the gate of the Grand View Garden were discussing whether he could spend a normal visit in this capital city, but it is true that he can indeed spend a normal visit in this Grand View Garden now.

As soon as you enter the gate of the garden, you will find the avenue. Compared with May and June, the garden in October is a little less green and gorgeous, and a little more bleak in autumn, but the Qinfang River is still a little bit bright when you see it. .

  Feng Ziying stopped on the Qinfang Pavilion and looked around. The jade archway and Taiguan Tower facing each other across the stream are still towering, but Feng Ziying always feels a little lonely.

This is a complex of three buildings connected side by side including Hanfang Pavilion, Taiguan Tower and Zhuijin Pavilion, and the side halls extending backward along Hanfang Pavilion and Zhuijin Pavilion, plus Jiayin Hall at the end. A group of square buildings is formed, together with the Gu Ensiyi Hall in the middle, this is the core building complex of the entire Grand View Garden.

  In contrast, whether it is Yihong Courtyard, Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Hengwu Court, Daoxiang Village, or Tubi Villa and Aujingxi Pavilion, they are all ancillary buildings, incidentally.

Normally no one can live in this group of core buildings. At most, they only borrow Hanfang Pavilion or Zhuijin Pavilion occasionally. Even the Grand View Building is rarely used. The door can only be opened and used when Yuanchun comes back.

   Sighing softly, Feng Ziying was about to go down to the Qinfang Pavilion and walk west across the Cuiyan Bridge to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, when she saw the second daughter coming from the east.

  Feng Ziying took a closer look, but it was Xing Xiuyan and Miaoyu.

   Neither Xing Xiuyan nor Miaoyu went to Jiamu's place today, so they only knew that Feng Ziying was going to visit the mansion today, but they didn't know that Feng Ziying was entering the garden at this time. When they saw Feng Ziying, they were all shocked.

Seeing that both Xing Xiuyan and Miaoyu were taken aback, Feng Ziying laughed and looked with his hands behind his back and said, "Why, sister Xiuyan and Miaoyu are so surprised? Is my visit to Rongguo Mansion so surprising?" ?”

What kind of person is Xing Xiuyan? He is elegant and pleasant, and he immediately smiled: "Brother Feng is joking, my younger sister and sister Miaoyu have known that Brother Feng is coming to the mansion, but they just thought that the two masters and Brother Feng were going to discuss important matters. Eldest brother sneaked in while he was busy, but he came to the garden."

   "Oh, so I misunderstood." Feng Ziying looked at the uncomfortable Miaoyu and the gentle and indifferent Xiuyan, "Where are you going?"

"Sister Miaoyu and I just came out of Changcui Nunnery. We brought a pot of mountain spring water and planned to go to Luxueguang to boil water for tea..." When Xing Xiuyan said this, Miaoyu couldn't help pinching She pinched Xiuyan's arm, but Xiuyan was unmoved.

   "Oh? I don't know if Brother Yu will be lucky enough to bother you to come to Xiuyan sister's Lu Xueguang to have a taste of Miaoyu's spring water and Xiuyan's tea?" Feng Ziying asked with a smile.

Miaoyu was even more nervous, and almost cut off Xiuyan's arm, but Xiuyan ignored it, and smiled sweetly: "That's good, I don't know when Brother Feng will come over, little sister and Miaoyu My sister boiled the water to wash the pot, waiting eagerly."

   "Well, then in half an hour, I'll go to Sister Lin first, and I'll come over after a while." Feng Ziying told her frankly.

Xing Xiuyan also admired Feng Ziying's magnanimity. Fiancée couples were not supposed to meet in private, but when it happened to Feng Ziying, they were so generous and undisguised that people would not feel that this was a bit of a breach of etiquette. Perhaps this is The allure that comes with this man's attainment of a certain status and influence?

   "Well, if Sister Lin is willing to come together, please ask Brother Feng to bring my younger sister to invite Sister Lin. My younger sister is most welcome."

  Feng Ziying nodded, Xiuyan nodded and said goodbye to Feng Ziying, and Miaoyu didn't have any extra words, she just opened her mouth to say goodbye.

  Seeing Feng Ziying go straight to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Miaoyu twisted Xiuyan's arm: "Xiuyan, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, brother Feng came back for a very rare time, and we missed the chance to see brother Feng this morning because we didn't go to the ancestor's place, so we invited him to drink tea, isn't it a good time to make up for it?" Xiuyan pretended not to untie.

   Miaoyu was annoyed, and her face was a little cold, "We agreed to drink tea together, why are there more outsiders?"

"Outsider? What's my sister's plan in the future? Is it true that she will live alone in this Cuicui nunnery for the rest of her life? Even sister Lin is not an outsider, right? Brother Feng is a hero. He defeated the Mongolian soldiers in Qian'an City. There are storytellers in the teahouse who started to talk about Xiao Feng Xiu’s storytelling about the battle against the Mongolian soldiers. Didn’t my sister always admire such heroes? Could it be that my sister still thinks that only the hermit who lives in the ancient temple in the deep mountains, or the high-level and high-level people? The knights in the rivers and lakes are heroes, and the act of turning the tide like Brother Feng and saving the people from the fire and water is not considered a heroic act? Does it mean that my sister still feels wronged by marrying him?"

  Xing Xiuyan said seriously: "My sister should think about it."

  Being blocked by Xing Xiuyan's words, her face turned red and white, and Miaoyu was speechless for a while.

She did tell her best friend that she admired those great heroes since she was a child, especially those chivalrous men who see injustice and eliminate violence and peace, but she never thought that Xiuyan would suddenly raise Feng Ziying's behavior in Qian'an City to such a high level , but you have to think carefully, which is more important, saving one person in the world or saving tens of thousands?

"Hmph, that's just his duty as a magistrate, how can it be called a chivalrous act? If he abandons the city and flees, I'm afraid the court will hold him accountable for escaping and dereliction of duty?" Miaoyu argued strongly, but she also Not without reason.

"Not necessarily so?" Xing Xiuyan shook her head, "Based on what I know about Brother Feng, he is not such an irresponsible person. I once heard Brother Feng say that righteousness lies in the fact that there are tens of thousands of people, but I will go with it. This is what Yasheng said, but Brother Feng changed it slightly, but I think it is more in line with his behavior."

"You!" Miaoyu stood still on the side of the roadside on the bank of the river by the side of Nianyezhu, looking at Xing Xiuyan suspiciously, "Xiuyan, I think you seem to be a different person, even if he saved us once, But it's not enough for you to flatter him so much, is it? Why do you contradict me in every sentence?"

"Sister, don't you know what kind of temperament my younger sister is? Convincing people with reasoning, brother Feng is indeed the case, younger sister can't speak out of conscience, right?" Xing Xiuyan calmly said that the bee waist bridge was a bit windy, and put her on the head. Wusi blew a little messily, covering her feverish cheeks.

  The witty words didn't believe it, and still stared at the other party relentlessly: "No, I always feel that there is something wrong with you, could it be..."

"Okay, sister, if Brother Feng will come soon, we will ask him how he defeated the Mongolian soldiers in Qian'an City, and then we will find out the truth." Xing Xiuyan changed the subject pretending to be calm, and grabbed Miaoyu arm, "Let's go."
