Encounter with the Four Great Talents

Surrounded by a bunch of maids and mothers, Mrs. Qiu rushed to Aunt Liu's yard. Seeing the chaos and chaos here, she became angry and beat and scolded a few little girls who were running around and screaming.After orderly ordering people to prepare hot water, ginseng soup, porridge and rice, ordering people to go to the doctor Wen Po, and then asking the experienced nuns to help, she sat outside the delivery room by herself.

Ding Shi who got the news also rushed over with the support of the girls, Qiu Shi looked at her big belly and shook his head: "Don't sit here anymore, you are heavy now, you are frightened or tired Neither is good. Go back and rest obediently, there is a mother here."

Mrs. Ding hesitated, but thinking of her heavy body after all, she thanked Mrs. Qiu and obediently returned to her main courtyard.And at this moment, Xingniang brushed past her and whispered a few words in Qiu Shi's ear, Qiu Shi raised his eyebrows and nodded with a gloomy face.So, several maids and mothers were replaced and brought before Tang Shen.

Tang Shen didn't like children, so he didn't have much interest in watching over Aunt Liu's baby, and it was also his turn to watch over it.What he cared about was why this woman would suddenly give birth earlier than the due date of one month.

Zhang Jingyu wanted to watch a play, but after receiving a cold stare from Tang Shen, he obediently went to rest.After clearing out the idlers, Tang Shen began to interrogate people.

Several maids and nuns were brought in front of him, and they didn't dare to move when they looked at the second master who was holding tea and sitting on the chair calmly, their hearts kept beating.The second master seldom used his hands to teach his servants. He was usually very tolerant and easy to talk to, but when he really punished his servants, he was never merciful.

Holding the tea in one hand, Tang Shen remained motionless for a while as if in a daze, then suddenly came to his senses, put the teacup on the table, and made a light click.But in this silent room, several people were still shocked and lowered their heads even more.Tang Shen glanced at them, and said coldly: "If you are smart, you can talk about it yourself. If you don't want to talk, you can pack your things. Although the servants on this New Year's Eve are not easy to sell, it doesn't take much effort."

Several people trembled even more. After Tang Shen said this, he didn't seem to be in a hurry anymore. He just stretched out his hand and rubbed his aching knee and waited quietly.After a while, an old nanny trembled all over and said, "Auntie said... if she was born later than Grandma, the young master...wouldn't be the eldest son..."

Tang Shen raised his eyebrows and snorted.The old nanny lowered her head in shock, she had already opened her mouth, so naturally she couldn't hide it anymore, so she confessed honestly.Because Aunt Liu and Ding were conceived almost at the same time, and the period of delivery was similar, the girl next to Aunt Liu said a few words about the difference between the eldest son and the second son in front of Aunt Liu, and gave Aunt Liu Scared.I don't know what to think, but at the age of nine months, I insisted on drinking medicine to induce labor and wanted to give birth to Tang's eldest son.

Tang Shen looked down at the lid of the cup, waited for the others to finish talking, and then asked, "You guys know this, but you didn't tell your wife or grandma, you really are so brave."

Tong Xi took a look at Tang Shen, turned around and went out to call Guan Shi without his order. This meant that he was going to sell a few people.A few people immediately cried and shouted, the masters of the Tang family are easy to serve, they give money and clothes well, and they rarely beat and scold the servants, who would be willing to leave?

But Tang Shen crossed his hands, leaned on the chair and said coldly: "No matter how ridiculous that woman is, what she is pregnant with is the young master of the Tang family, the master. What you are doing is tantamount to taking the master's life. I can't afford to keep the servant."

Manager Chen who was called had a livid face and came in without saying a word and kowtowed to Tang Shen. After calling out, he waved his hands, and several tall and strong men dragged him out.Chen Guanshi lowered his head and stood motionless in front of Tang Shen, waiting to be reprimanded.

Tang Shen didn't say anything to him, but said flatly: "I don't know whether this child is a boy or a girl. It's fine if it's a girl. If it's a boy, there is absolutely no rule for the young master to keep him by my aunt's side."

Chen Guanshi immediately understood and complied.Seeing that he had no other orders, he went back to the Qiu family.

After receiving the letter, Mrs. Qiu smashed the cup in her hand, "A lowly servant girl, who didn't know what to do after giving her face, actually wanted to climb on the master's head! Don't care about any boys or girls, I will take them to the master after they are born." house!"

The surrounding maids and nuns all lowered their heads shyly, not daring to speak nonsense.In the room, I don't know if Aunt Liu heard Qiu Shi's words, and cried even louder. Qiu Shi sat on the chair with a sullen face like a door god, until the sun began to set and the child's cry came. Only then did he stand up abruptly.

Aunt Liu finally gave birth to the eldest son of the Tang family. Although it was less than a month old, the doctor said the child was healthy.After taking the child, Qiu said: "Let her have a good life." She turned and left with the child in her arms.

Tang Guangde was leaning on the kang reading a book, when he heard a group of people coming in a hurry, he put down the book and looked at the door, the curtain was lifted Qiu Shi came in wrapped in cold air, hugged something tightly, wanted to ask something, but seeing her ugly face, he didn't Say it.With Dongyue's help, Qiu removed the cloak, and placed the child directly beside Tang Guangde on the kang.

Tang Guangde was startled: "Why did you bring this child here?" But his eyes were stuck to it and he couldn't tear it off, and he stretched out his hand to tease with a smile from his heart.

"We will keep this child by our side first, and when Mrs. Ding gives birth, we will give it to Mrs. Ding to raise." Mrs. Qiu was really angry, and she sat down on the kang and explained the matter.Tang Guangde sighed, but did not object, and played happily with the child in his arms. "Since you have already decided that this child will stay with us and be raised by our side, we will hand it over to Mrs. Ding when it is born. Oh, good boy! Oh, oh, I am your grandfather! "

Qiu couldn't laugh or cry, she carried her grandson over and coaxed her a few times, and let someone carry her to nurse him.

Ding Shi also got the news at the first time, his heart tensed at first, then relaxed again.Since the child is destined to be kept by himself, it doesn't matter.It's just that she hated Aunt Liu, it's really hateful to play tricks so stupidly and boldly!

Zhang Jingyu came to be a guest, so naturally he didn't know about these things in the Tang family's inner house, he only knew that Tang Yin had a son, he smiled and congratulated, and sealed a big red envelope.

Tang Shen accepted it and asked him when he would go to Beijing.When Zhang Jingyu mentioned the matter of going to Beijing, he lacked confidence, "In two months."

Tang Shen nodded. After two months, the test in the capital was just the beginning, so he should still be able to take care of Tang Yin, so he asked him to help.Zhang Jingyu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What's the benefit?"

Tang Shen had a headache, so he directly stuffed the red envelope into his hand: "New Year's money." After speaking, he stood up and went to dig his big hole, no, it was the underground kiln.Zhang Jingyu stared at the red envelope in his hand, finally shook his head helplessly, put it on the table and chased after him: "Can you send me to Suzhou before I go to the capital?"

"Don't go."

"Don't be so ruthless, it will be difficult for us to meet when I go to the capital."

"We'll see you all the time."

"Are you hating me?"

"..."

"Am I right? Great!"

Tang Shen sighed helplessly again, he really couldn't handle this kind of clingy type.

When Tang Yin received another letter from home, he knew that he had a son.According to the family, Mrs. Liu was too weak and the child was born prematurely, so she temporarily placed it with her parents to take care of her, and when Mrs. Ding gave birth to the child, they would be handed over to Mrs. Ding to be raised together.Tang Yin didn't have any objection to this point, he bought some petite things and sent them back with the letter.As for the child's name, it's better to wait until Ding's child is born to think about it together.

The letter here had just been mailed when Wen Zhengming walked in: "Brother Tang, are you ready?"

Tang Yin smiled and nodded: "Okay." Gao Futongshou came over, and the two met Chen Juren at the gate, and went to Xishan Temple outside the capital to appreciate plum blossoms.

Xishan Temple is not well-known, but there are so many plum blossoms around it, which is called Xishan Meihai.Every winter, the yellow, white, red and pink plum blossoms are especially holy and beautiful against the background of winter snow, and the fragrance is very pleasant.Therefore, in the capital, there are a lot of people who go to Xishan to enjoy plum blossoms in winter.Tang Yin and the others got the news, so they naturally wanted to come and see it.

Before arriving at Xishan Mountain, I could smell the clear ice fragrance, and when I opened the curtain, I could see the patches of white and sweet snow, deep and shallow red and yellow connected into pieces, as elegant as clouds.

The three of them chatted and laughed all the way up the mountain. The mountain road had already been cleaned by the monks in the temple, so they didn't worry about slipping.The three of them looked at the beautiful scenery around them, chanting poems and composing Fu, and they were in a very good mood.

When they arrived at the temple, there were indeed a lot of pilgrims, and the three finally got on the incense sticks, and quickly got out to wander around the temple.

Then I saw a group of scholars sitting in a thatched hut with a good view in Xishan Temple, toasting and singing, playing and laughing.

Chen Juren felt itchy to watch, and wanted to go to participate, but Wen Zhengming stopped, pulled Tang Yin and said softly, "Look inside."

Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and looked carefully, and was surprised to see a person, Xu Zhenqing.

Xu Zhenqing has never been in contact with him since he came to attend his wedding banquet.Although Tang Yin had almost forgotten him, the delicate and beautiful hibiscus noodles were still recognized at a glance.And the reason why Wen Zhengming didn't come forward was also immediately seen by Tang Yin, because he was being hugged by a man. The man raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and then immediately fed him mouth to mouth.After Xu Zhenqing choked and drank it, the man immediately burst out laughing.The other scholars around seemed to be no longer surprised, and even joked a few words.

Tang Yin immediately frowned, stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Juren, Wen Zhengming also blocked Chen Juren cooperatively, and the two of them took him away directly.Chen Juren was very strange, especially when he saw the ugly faces of the two of them, he was even more curious.Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin didn't like to memorize people's right and wrong, so they had to say that there were people they knew among them, the relationship was not very good, and they didn't want to get involved.As soon as Chen Juren heard it, he immediately promised that he would not be involved with those people. The two of them didn't want to meet Xu Zhenqing, so they went to another direction to look at the scenery.

There are far fewer customers in this area, but the quality of plum blossoms is obviously better than that of other places, and there are even many traces of artificial pruning.

Chen Juren rubbed his chin and said, "Did we come to someone else's house?"

When Wen Zhengming heard this, he looked around hesitantly: "So it really looks alike, didn't we just enter a round door? Could it be that we really went wrong?"

Tang Yin looked up and looked around: "The gate was not guarded just now, and there is no eaves to be seen here, could it be another plum garden cultivated by the monks in the temple?"

"It's not impossible." Chen Juren put his face close to a red plum tree and took a breath with his eyes closed. He closed his eyes intoxicated and shook his head, and was about to chant a poem when he heard a woman's scream.

The three of them turned back with a few servants at the same time, and saw two women holding jade bottles and looking at them in panic.Then, a little monk hurried over: "Blessings, this is a plum garden for female pilgrims to enjoy plum blossoms. Men are not allowed to enter!"

The three of them apologized to the little monk quickly, and the little monk blamed himself too much. He left for a while because he wanted to relieve himself, but the three of them came in.Fortunately, I didn't bump into any lady, these two girls are just the maids of the female fragrance master who came today.

The little monk ended there, and the three apologized to the two girls.Although the two girls are only maids, they are first-class maids after all. Being a maid in a mansion like theirs is comparable to a daughter from a small family.Immediately, holding the jade bottle and lowering his head to return the gift to the three people, the voice was sweet and tactful, expressing that he didn't care, the three people didn't do it on purpose, so they couldn't blame it.

Chen Juren didn't marry a wife, so he was more curious about women, so he couldn't help but take a closer look at them.The two girls were wearing bright green and autumn-colored jackets and skirts. They looked about sixteen or seventeen, and their figures were slender, because they couldn't see their faces clearly when they lowered their heads, but looking at the slender fingers and the crow's hair, they felt that they must be Not bad.

As if sensing Chen Juren's scrutiny, the two girls were about to get up and leave immediately.Because they were walking in a hurry, they didn't notice the plum branches above their heads. As a result, a golden hairpin on the head of the girl in the autumn-colored jacket and skirt flew out because of the plum branches, and landed directly at Tang Yin's feet.She was immediately tangled up, and she was too embarrassed to pick it up.

Tang Yin smiled slightly, bent down to pick it up, and when he was about to hand the hairpin tail to the girl, he suddenly remembered and turned around and handed it to the little monk. The little monk smiled appreciatively, took it and handed it to the girl. girl.The girl looked up at Tang Yin gratefully, her eyes were bright and clear, and seeing Tang Yin was also looking at her, she quickly turned away as if frightened, a faint blush floated on her face, and she bent her knees. Yili: "Thank you, young master."

Tang Yin was polite and courteous: "It's a little effort, girl, don't take it to heart."

After blessing the ceremony again, the two girls turned and left, and Tang Yin and the others also turned and walked out under the guidance of the young monk.It's just a blessing to the heart, Tang Yin turned his head before he was discharged from the hospital, and saw that deep in the plum blossoms, the girl was looking sideways at him, and gave him a shy smile.

The author has something to say: Have you checked "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance"? In fact, there is another name in this story called "Three Smiles"!Because MM Qiuxiang smiled sweetly at Tang Bohu three times and hooked the soul of Tang's great talent, she voluntarily entered the Taishi Mansion to approach MM Qiuxiang.I think I watched the Yue opera version of "Three Smiles" with my mother back then, and I was deeply impressed.
