Passerby's daily life

Chapter 37 Warmth on the way (additional chapter)
The Song family now has the title of earl, and besides the Yangwei Escort, there is also a river-run water army to keep an eye on it. Da Chu's water army is not a vegetarian.There were no chances of bloody plots such as water bandits robbing a ship, heroes saving the beauty, etc., and the road was uneventful.

No matter how beautiful the scenery was, I got tired of seeing it for a few days, so the girls pestered the old lady to talk about the ancient times, and sometimes called the Fifth Young Master and the Sixth Young Master.

"A family is close relatives. If you are not afraid of disturbing your studies, you should often play together. It's rare to come out, and you can relax for a few days. When you enter the capital, you have to go to the official school, and the sisters have to learn the rules. , There is no such easy life."

Hearing what the old lady said, the fifth young master was not a rigid person, but he brought his younger brothers and sisters to accompany his grandmother for a long time.The happy sixth young master has always regarded the fifth young master as the best brother in the world, and forgot how the "good brother" oppressed him before.

On this day, after waking up from an afternoon nap, the four girls and the two young masters gathered at the old lady's place again. The sixth young master, relying on his small size, greeted the old lady and ran to the old lady's side, acting like a baby to the old lady and asking for an ice bowl .

In June, it was not easy to store ice on board, and the ice used for food was bought by the old lady when the ship stopped at the port for supplies.With the wealth of the Song family and the fact that the old lady is always kind-hearted, the boatmen, guards, and servants on the ship all have a bowl of ice bowls with fruit and sweet marinade to eat every day, let alone the little masters.

Only ice bowls are cold food, it is not good to eat too much, so the old lady doesn't eat a lot, she only eats one bowl a day.The Sixth Young Master had already eaten the portion before lunch, and now he is pestering the old lady again.

In the Song family, the boys would move to the outer courtyard to teach when the governor was three or four years old. On weekdays, they rarely came to the inner courtyard except to ask for peace and have a meal with the family during the New Year.The young masters are more than respectful to the old lady, but not close enough.

The sixth young master is better. When he was born, his older sisters were raised under the name of the old lady, and the third lady often took him to play in Suian hall, and he was young, so he would not be embarrassed to act coquettishly. On the contrary, the old lady loved him the most. grandson.

But when the fifth young master was young, the old lady had been heartbroken by her own daughter-in-law's grandchildren, and she would not get close to any grandchildren even if she liked it. .But after spending these days together on the boat, the Fifth Young Master realized that his grandmother was really a broad-minded and open-minded person with great wisdom.

She doesn't shy away from talking about her experience as a maidservant with the juniors, she can also openly talk about the meeting and acquaintance with her grandfather, and she can even analyze with them the current situation of the Song family and the various situations they will face after entering Beijing.

Grandma told them: "A person's life may be full of ups and downs. Or ordinary, one must have a calm heart, be able to withstand poverty, keep wealth, and also be able to endure loneliness. A broad heart leads to a broad road."

Because of this, Fifth Young Master knew a little more about his grandmother, and became very close to her.Now seeing my younger brother and grandmother acting like a baby, making grandmother laugh non-stop, he also felt narrowed, and said to his eldest maid: "I haven't eaten that bowl yet, bring it here."

When the Sixth Young Master heard this, he thought that his elder brother had finally realized his conscience and was going to turn on the "good brother" mode again, and looked at his fifth elder brother eagerly.

Unexpectedly, the ice bowl was served, but the fifth young master didn't even look at him, and took the silver spoon and put it into his mouth slowly, sighing a few times while eating, such as "today's cherry Not bad", "This pear flavor is absolutely amazing", "Oh, hey, today's sweet-scented osmanthus marinade is simply delicious", etc. A series of exaggerated sentences lead to action.

I could only see the sixth young master filled with grief and indignation, wishing he could snatch the silver spoon and put it in his mouth, but unfortunately, he had a wicked heart but no guts.And a group of female relatives were amused by the two brothers.

The old lady didn't expect that her grandson, who is usually the most serious (hehehe, called Mensao in modern times), would be so narrow-minded and mischievous, she couldn't help laughing.And Susu usually knows her appearance, it's better to keep a low profile, but this time she was amused and laughed heartily, her small face became more and more beautiful, even a woman couldn't help trembling, let alone It is said that he is already the fifth young master of a young boy.

It's just that I haven't understood the word love yet. Seeing Susu's smile at this moment, my heart beats fast, as if it will jump out if I don't pay attention. Although it doesn't show on the face, the roots of the ears and the neck turn red quickly. .The fifth young master didn't dare to look at Susu anymore, so he quickly looked away, but paused when his eyes moved to someone.

Fifth Young Master frowned slightly: The jealousy in Fifth Younger Sister's eyes was too strong, even if she wanted to pretend she couldn't see it, she couldn't do it.He is too familiar with this kind of gaze. When he was studying in Yangzhou, the classmates in the academy looked at him with this kind of gaze.

Although the emotion in Miss Wu's eyes was only a flash, Song Qingzhen believed that she was right.Thinking of my mother's private exhortations before leaving, I have to sigh: people should not be judged by appearances, and absolutely no one should be underestimated.

The fifth girl also felt this scrutiny, and looked along the line of sight, it was actually the fifth brother, she was taken aback for a moment, but she nodded and smiled slightly on her face, pretending to be a docile concubine girl.

The fifth young master was not close to this younger sister at all, but he didn't feel any disgust at all, because they were close relatives of flesh and blood, and he often listened to his father's teachings, and if there was a sixth younger sister, she would have a share of all the things sent to the inner courtyard.But these days, I'm used to seeing the sisters' happy and carefree jokes, and when I compare her, I feel bored for a while.Everywhere is like a little cabbage, except for crying when encountering things, but the rare thing is that the pear blossoms are crying with rain. I don’t know how his mother abused her, or how to develop such a "cowardly" temperament ?The fifth young master was too lazy to look at her, and pretended to look away casually.

Miss Wu didn't know that she had been exposed, and she was so jealous in her heart, she still smiled happily like everyone else.

Others naturally didn't know about the skirmish between the two brothers and sisters. After laughing, the old lady didn't ask someone to serve the Sixth Young Master another bowl of ice.

The Song family started out as a businessman, and they were able to become a rich man in Yangzhou in just a few decades, thanks to the Song family's commitment and commitment.

Although the sixth young master is small, he is very clever. He knows that no matter how much he pesters his grandmother, he will not change his decision. Maybe the fifth brother will "teach" him when he goes back. In addition, the old lady ordered someone to serve fruit snacks. Soon, the sixth young master will Forget about the ice bowl.

The sixth young master and the young girl are indeed brothers and sisters, they both like to ask some weird questions. "Isn't the capital the capital, why is it called Changle?"

Yang Liu listened and said: "When the slaves and maids came to Beijing with the old lady, they were young. Apart from being nervous and excited, they only remembered the tall city walls, the wide streets, and the yards with each gate. Hearing the sixth young master's question today, I found that I really went for nothing, I don’t know anything!”

The old lady looked at the fifth young master with a smile, "Brother Zhen will give these 'unlearned and incompetent' lectures, so that they can learn a lot!"

The fifth young master tapped the younger brother who ran up to him with the fan in his hand, and said: "Although we call the capital the capital, it's not because the name of this city is the capital. The word Jing is actually the abbreviation of Jingshi." "Spring and Autumn Annals" "Gongyang Biography" said, "Who is the capital? The residence of the emperor. What is the capital? The big. Who is the teacher? The crowd. The residence of the emperor is described by the words of the great.""

The Fifth Young Master cleared his throat when he said this, and the Sixth Young Master hurriedly poured a cup of tea for his brother, and handed it to him kindly.The fifth young master gave him a satisfied look, feeling that his younger brother had never been so informed.

After drinking tea, Song Qingzhen went on to say: "Simply put, the capital, the capital, and the country mean the same thing. It is not a name, but a collective term. All capitals can be called capitals and capitals. The names and locations of the capitals of all dynasties They are all different, Shang has Chaoge, Qin has Xianyang, and Han has Chang'an. The capital of our dynasty was the land of Yanzhao, and the founding emperor Shengwu originally named it Beijing, but later changed the city's name to Changle because of the construction of Weiyang Palace."

Hearing Fifth Young Master's explanation, those present who don't know, especially the maids who haven't read many books, suddenly realized the feeling.

The Sixth Young Master asked the Fifth Brother to look at him. He nodded quickly, as if he understood, "Weiyang has endless and unfinished meanings. The city name is Changle, and the palace is called Weiyang. It is named after Changle Weiyang. Happy Endless blessings, right?"

The Fifth Young Master patted the Sixth Young Master's head, feeling quite smooth, and said with a smile: "You can teach me!"

The sixth girl was not interested in these things, so she pulled the third and fourth girls and asked, "Are there any famous talented women and beauties in the capital?"

The third and fourth girls were taken aback when they heard this, and then felt bitter.The two girls looked at each other, the fourth girl thought about it, and said: "We don't know what kind of beauties there are in the capital, but you call Su Su Yang Diao, so don't be too disappointed then!"

The sixth girl didn't care about it, but she didn't agree with her sister's words, "Sister Susu is like this, only one is enough in the world. The beauty of a beauty has the merits of appearance and strength of character. The capital is so big, and there will always be one or two." I am pleasing to the eye."

Everyone in Suian Hall and the girls are used to hearing this, and they don't think there is anything wrong with it.But Fifth Young Master couldn't help it, the corners of his mouth twitched, it's really rare to see such a beautiful girl as my sister.

The old lady didn't speak at this moment, all because of the embarrassment and bitterness of seeing the third and fourth girls just now, she really regretted it a lot, a foolish woman misleading her children and grandchildren!

When I came to the capital, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law never took their two granddaughters out to socialize, otherwise the two children have stayed in the capital for three years, how could they not know what kind of noble daughters there are in the capital to make friends with?

The old lady restrained her thoughts, and replied to Miss Liu's words, which was regarded as a dose of heart-boosting medicine for her granddaughters, "Our family has no foundation in the capital, but your uncle also knows a few families with whom you can associate, and settled down in the capital." Okay, please come after posting the post, if there are girls who come to play, we can also get together from time to time. When your sister-in-law comes in in the future, ask her to take you out for a walk."

After hearing this, the four girls burst into laughter.

It was rare to get together, and the old lady left another dinner before asking the two young masters to go back to the boat ahead.The girls were still excited, chattering about the topics that women care most about—clothes, jewellery, rouge and gouache.

Yangzhou has been a prosperous place in all dynasties and has always been at the forefront of fashion. Only this situation has changed in Dachu.Probably because the founding emperor of Great Chu, the golden finger of the time traveler, opened too much. I don’t know what the origin is.Not to mention the big aspects, but just to put it bluntly, in addition to setting Qufu Shenyi as women's dresses and court clothes, they also carried forward Ru skirts, half-arms, skirts, big-sleeved shirts, jacket skirts, and cheongsams. There are even dozens of styles of skirts, such as pleated, liuxian, and fishtail.

Tell me, is this kind of tossing about not giving other time-traveling juniors a chance to survive, is it really so f*cking good?
