Chapter 012: The tea is cold
Wang Xifeng's brows frowned for a moment, and soon, they stretched out.
"I think it's a big deal? When I get free tomorrow, I'll ask someone to help you get someone. That's the assembly!"
Yi Mengjue nodded suspiciously, and then left the yard directly.
Wang Xifeng agreed so readily, which made Yi Mengjue feel a little fake.
If Mingyan was talking about the truth, if he didn't have a few hundred taels of silver, Jingxu would not let him go.
With Wang Xifeng's character of wealth and fate, would she take out hundreds of taels of silver for no reason?
Yi Mengjue was a little unbelievable.
But, I thought again in a blink of an eye.
According to the book, Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing have a very good relationship. Fortunately, for the sake of the late Qin family, they may not be able to help.
After leaving the yard, Yi Mengjue walked like this along the way he came.
Helplessly, when I came here just now, I was thinking about Ping'er ahead and never remembered this path at all.
When I encountered the pavilions, pavilions, veranda pavilions, and garden paths, I soon lost my way back and forth. I couldn't even understand the minimum direction.
Since I don’t know the way back, I can just visit the scenery of Rongfu.
Some scenes of the recovery image I had originally looked at were in my mind. I looked at it like this on the spot. I wanted to correspond to what I knew with this actual scene.
As a result, except for the fact that when I first left, I saw the pink and oil shadow jade in the stairs outside Wang Xifeng Courtyard, none of the remaining places could match it.
Besides, there are not many descriptions of the scene in Rongfu in the book.
The most described in the book is actually the scenery in the Grand View Garden. However, the Grand View Garden has not been built yet, so naturally it is impossible to appreciate it.
I don’t know where I went, but I also met some guardians, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Yi Mengjue nodded just to their greetings.
After passing a corner of the door, it seemed that the boy's reading sound was heard.
"Mencius said: The time of heaven is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the people's harmony. A city of three miles and a city of seven miles is surrounded and attacked but not strong, and there is not much rice or grain. If you leave it, it means that the place is not as good as the people's harmony."
The sound of the book continues, and Yi Mengjue listens to her tender voice.
I expected that in this inner courtyard, there would be a sound of reading at this time, probably my half-brother and my father's nephew who died early.
After walking into the courtyard, the little girls saw Yi Mengjue the first.
"Second Master is here, I'll report to the big grandma right away."
When Yi Mengjue heard this, of course he understood that he was at Li Wan's residence.
My widowed sister-in-law is probably only in her twenties now. In this damn feudal society, those rituals and laws have locked such a young woman in this deep mansion. In the end, there may be only the lonely archway to give her a comment on her destiny in this life.
"No need, I just passed by and heard the sound of books coming over and take a look."
Although Yi Mengjue said that, there seemed to be a noise in the house over there.
Soon, a woman in plain gray clothes walked out of the house and gave a slight salute to Yi Mengjue.
"Uncle Bao, please come to the house for a cup of tea!"
Yi Mengjue looked at the woman not far away.
Soon, he gave a gift.
"Sister-in-law doesn't have to be too polite. I just heard the sound of books and came over to take a look, and then I stopped going in."
After saying that, he turned around and left the yard.
When he left, a little girl next to Li Wan said curiously: "Grandma, the second master is a little strange today."
"I heard that he beat all his followers in the morning. He was so sad."
The little girl was talking with a roar, and Li Wan couldn't help but glar at the little girl.
"Don't worry about this, you'd better go back and sew Lan'er's clothes. Tomorrow, Lan'er will wear them when she goes to school."
When the little girl heard this, she didn't dare to say anything anymore. The master and servant entered the house.
Li Wan also felt that Baoyu today was a little different.
However, I didn't think much about it. I came to Jia Lan's study, served a cup of hot tea, and then quietly retreated.
After leaving, Yi Mengjue felt a sense of direction until he walked east, entered the corridor, and passed a corner gate. The servant who was guarding the gate hurriedly came to pay his respects.
"Second Master, I'm here to pay your respects."
Of course, Yi Mengjue didn't know their names when he looked at the 15th or 16th.
However, Yi Mengjue also felt that after these servants greeted each other, they kept kneeling on the ground and remained moving. It seemed that they were very respectful. It probably had something to do with his slap in the morning.
"Okay, get up!"
"By the way, you can lead me in front of you. Let's go to my aunt's house to see Sister Bao."
Yi Mengjue pointed at just like this, and the servant who was pointed quickly got up and followed Yi Mengjue happily.
"Second Master, please give me first."
"Okay, let you open the way for me in front, and you will walk in front."
"By the way, what's your name?"
When the servant heard Yi Mengjue's words, he hurriedly walked forward and quickly turned around.
"Second Master, the youngest name is Xier, he is 16 years old this year."
Yi Mengjue waved his hand.
"Okay, you walk in front, I will follow behind."
The servant named Xier dared not walk fast, but he walked from time to time, looking back at Yi Mengjue from time to time. When he arrived at the rocky path, he kept reminding him.
"Second Master, please wait, there are steps here."
....
In this way, after walking for more than ten minutes, I came to a small courtyard.
Xier stood beside her with her hands hanging down, and Yi Mengjue waved her hand at him.
"You go and pass on a message outside to see if that kid Mingyan is back? Let him come here to wait for me, and I have something to ask him."
After saying that, Yi Mengjue went straight into the courtyard.
"Auntie, Sister Bao, are you at home?"
Yi Mengjue thought that he was in the countryside of later generations, so he had to shout a few words outside before entering someone’s house.
"Is anyone here?"
"Is anyone here?"
I didn't know that I just shouted that the little girl on the steps got up.
"Second Master, please be gentle."
"We girls felt a little uncomfortable yesterday and didn't sleep well at night. Now, we just took the opportunity to fall asleep. Don't quarrel with her."
After the little girl said this, Yi Mengjue quickly covered her mouth.
It is said that spring is sleepy and autumn is exhausted. At noon, this wealthy family will fall asleep as soon as they want.
"Oh, is Sister Bao better?"
The little girl nodded: "I just took a dose of medicine, and the doctor said that I would have a good rest, and it would be almost done."
"Where is Aunt? Not here either?"
The little girl shook her head: "Mrs. I've gone to the East Courtyard."
I have it, one of the two masters left and the other was sick, so of course they were not suitable for me to go in.
I originally wanted to meet Xue Baochai and see what this heroine in the golden and beautiful relationship looks like? It seems that I can't meet today.
"When Sister Bao wakes up, tell her. Then I'll leave."
Without even a cup of tea, Yi Mengjue left the yard.
After walking around like this, I finally got lost.
Sitting down in a small pavilion, Yi Mengjue closed his eyes. Not long after, when he opened his eyes, a servant appeared in front of him.
"Second Master, I went to the Mantou Temple in the morning to inquire. The old nun Jingxu finally gave a price, saying that he would cost 600 taels of silver, so he put the smart one out."
"Six hundred taels?"
Yi Mengjue listened to the words and couldn't help staring at Mingyan.
Yesterday Mingyan said that Jingxu spent thousands of taels of silver on Zhier, but he meant he wanted a thousand taels?
Today, the effort has dropped to 600 taels. It seems that Mingyan's words must have moisture yesterday. The moisture has dropped now, which probably has a lot to do with the board I was hit today.
