Chapter 1562 867 Dowry
"Big Brother, Marshal, and Brother Yu, why are you all here!"
A brisk and familiar male voice came from the direction of the city gate with the sound of horses' hooves. Yu Xiufan and Yuan Yuyi rode two horses, one black and one red, respectively.
When the two approached, Yu Xiufan neatly turned over and dismounted, and greeted everyone, Yuan Yuyi was also generous, only when meeting Qu Jiayue, the expressions of the cousins were a little subtle.
After a few words of greetings, Yu Xiufan suggested with a smile: "There is a saying, it's better to meet by chance, walk around, let's drink together... tea!"
When the words came to his lips, Yu Xiufan changed the word "wine" to "tea" abruptly, and he was overjoyed: God really helped him. Today, he asked Yuan Yuyi to go to the Great Buddha Temple to offer incense, and he was worried about it. If you ask Yuan Yuyi to go to a teahouse or restaurant, will it be abusive to the beauty? It's alright now, let's go with the flow.
Thinking about it, Yu Xiufan's eyes gleamed.
Fifth Young Master Liu and Yu Xiufan grew up wearing a pair of trousers. You can tell what Yu Xiufan was thinking by looking at him. They also played side drums, and everyone surrounded Xiao Yi and Guan Yu Bai Hao. He headed for Fengyun Tea House in a mighty manner.
Qu Jiayue, who was deliberately lagging behind, stared at Guan Yu's long white back, barely suppressing the smile at the corner of her mouth, she seemed as elegant and calm as usual, only a pair of unusually bright eyes revealed her thoughts.
The shopkeeper of the teahouse greeted everyone in person and went to the elegant seat on the second floor.
In the elegant seat, there are still things left by the third son of Hua San and Qu Jiayue and his party. There are piano, chess, books, paintings, and tea. Now the tea is cold, the shopkeeper hurriedly instructed Xiao Er to give the most distinguished guests the best. Good Longjing, and the specialty dim sum in the teahouse.
The air is filled with the faint aroma of tea and incense, and the rustling of the wind blowing leaves can be heard outside the window, and the atmosphere is quiet and elegant.
Yuan Yuyi glanced halfway around the room, her eyes fell on a piano in the corner, she raised her eyebrows thoughtfully, and blurted out, "Could this be the 'Great Sage's legacy'?"
"Miss Yuan is really good-looking!" Miss Hua replied, her black eyes shining brightly.
"It turns out that this qin belongs to Miss Hua?" Yuan Yuyi walked to the qin and gently plucked it on the strings. The sound of the qin was clear and clear.
Seeing that Yuan Yuyi is a person who understands the piano, the smile on the corner of her mouth became even stronger, "Miss Yuan, would you like to give it a try?"
Yuan Yuyi wrinkled her face and said, "I won't show my ugliness. My mother said that I'm just a pedant. It's fine for me to play "Autumn Wind Ci". The rare and famous qin, the sound is beautiful and strong, but it was ruined in my hands..."
Qu Jiayue's eyes flashed, and she interjected with a smile: "Liu Shuang, you are too modest." Liu Shuang is the title of Yuan Yuyi. Qu Jiayue and Yuan Yuyi have not been close since they were young, and they have always used each other's titles. commensurate.
Qu Jiayue picked up a sheet music on the desk beside her, stepped forward and said, "I just happened to find a remnant of "Butterfly Sleepwalking", and just now, Miss Hua and Miss Chang were trying to recompose this remnant. , but the first paragraph has not yet been completed, and Miss Hua and I have already had an ambiguity... Why don't you look for us, Liu Shuang?"
Yuan Yuyi was also aroused a little interest, and looked at the scores of Qu Jiayue and Miss Hua, frowning slightly.
Before she could speak, she heard the sound of "Zheng", and looked down, only to realize that Xiao Xiaoyu walked to the piano case at some point, stretched out his small hand and plucked the strings, then raised his face, Looking at Yuan Yuyi with burning eyes: "Auntie, play the piano!" Quickly play it to Brother Yu!
Xiao Yi took Xiao Xiaoyu away in a funny way, and played it on his forehead, "You stinky boy, you are used to calling people!" Seeing how skilled this stinky boy looks, he must have used his mother to play the piano at home. Listen to him!
Xiao Xiaoyu looked at his father aggrievedly, he didn't do anything? !
However, Xiao Xiaoyu's words made Yuan Yuyi a flash of inspiration, and she smiled: "Brother Yu is right, just play it and you will know." She looked around and said, "I have nothing to do anyway, everyone should listen. , maybe they can take their own advantages.”
Qu Jiayue smiled even more, patted her palm and said, "You have such a good idea, Liu Shuang! Then let me try it out first."
Qu Jiayue has always been very confident in her own piano skills. She has no children, but she is able to emerge in the harem of the Western Night King. First, her appearance is outstanding. Ye's vulgar fans, I don't know how many out there.
After Qu Jiayue burned the incense and cleaned her hands, she went to the piano desk and sat down. After trying the sound, she began to pluck the strings.
The melodious sound of the piano sounded, melodious and broad, clear and moving, and gradually became sad...
This is only the first paragraph of "Butterfly Dreaming", and soon the piano sound came to an abrupt end, and other people in the elegant room were a little bit unfinished. Liu Wugong praised: "Miss Qu is really excellent in piano skills!"
Yuan Yuyi glanced at Qu Jiayue, and a touch of complexity flashed in her eyes.
"It's shameful." Qu Jiayue Luoluo stood up generously, blessed everyone, and returned to her seat.
Then, it was Miss Hua's turn. The beginning of the tune was the same. After two melody, it began to be slightly different. The tune was ethereal, vivid and smooth.
When Miss Hua pulled her hands away, there was silence in the private seat, until Xiao Xiao Yu clapped his hands "papapapa", very admiring his face.
Yuan Yuyi frowned and pondered, no wonder they couldn't argue, and it was really hard to say which one was better. Different people have different understandings of the qin music. When I first heard it, it was Qu Jiayue's tune that was more distinct and left a deeper impression. In comparison, it seemed that Miss Hua's piece was a bit bland, but it was light and flavorful, with a lingering aftertaste. ...
The two have their own strengths and weaknesses, but...
"It's better for Miss Hua..." Yuan Yuyi said honestly.
Qu Jiayue's smile froze, she took a deep breath, and said reluctantly, "Liu Shuang, why?"
Yuan Yuyi pinched her chin and said in a deep voice, "I can't tell..."
Qu Jiayue pursed her cherry lips, and said in a serious tone, "Liu Shuang, you have to let me lose clearly, right?" After speaking, she looked at Guan Yubai in the front right, got up and said, "Marshal Wen Wu Shuangquan, omnipotent, can you give Mingyue some advice?"
For a time, everyone's eyes were focused on Guan Yubai who was drinking tea.
Guan Yubai put down the celadon tea cup in his hand and said, "Can you lend me a look at the remnants at the back?"
Qu Jiayue saw that Guan Yubai seemed to decide for her, with a happy face, and hurriedly presented the original incomplete score.
After Guan Yubai flipped through the remnants of the score, he stood up and walked towards the Qin table. Miss Hua, who was sitting behind the Qin table, guessed something, and hurriedly got up and gave the Qin to Guan Yubai.
After Guan Yubai tried the sound of the piano at random, he flicked the strings, and a string of piano sounds escaped from his fingers, as high as the sky, ethereal and free...
When he made his move, the other two masters of qin skills immediately produced extraordinary results.
This "Great Sage's Legacy" is considered to have life in his hands...
When the sound of the piano stopped, Miss Hua couldn't help but blurt out: "Flying and deified." She suddenly felt that this piano was really a waste in her hands.
"Foster father is nice!" Xiao Xiaoyu sat in his father's arms and clapped again.
"I understand." Chang Huanwei said thoughtfully from the side, "Miss Hua's composition is too smooth, while Miss Qu is... too radical. This is the first paragraph..." "Butterfly Sleepwalking" There are a total of seven paragraphs plus the ending. The paragraph that Qu Jiayue played was too intense and pathetic, and should not have appeared in the first paragraph.
Chang Huanwei was clearly talking about Qu Zi, but for some reason, Qu Jiayue always felt that the other party seemed to be saying that she was too radical.
"Marshal," Miss Hua looked up at Guan Yubai, her eyes burning brightly, and she said again, "Please forgive me for taking the liberty to play this song "Butterfly Sleepwalking"?" It's an astonishing song.
Who would have thought that, before Guan Yubai could speak, Xiao Yi directly refused: "You can find out the remnants by yourself, figure it out for yourself!"
Guan Yubai quickly glanced at his right hand, but after playing it for so long, his fingertips were already trembling slightly. He quietly tucked his hands into his sleeves.
Xiao Yi has always been sharp-eyed, and he had taken this scene into his eyes long ago. He casually picked up Xiao Yu and said, "It's time for a nap, Xiao Bai, let's go."
These two people are the most famous people in Nanjiang, and the others did not dare to stop them.
Poor little Xiao Yu didn't have a chance to object at all. When he reacted, the whole house of delicious food had left him. He looked at his father pitifully and said, "Father, cake and fruit!"
"Look at how promising you are!" Xiao Yi shook his head helplessly. He said it rudely, but he swept all the snacks in the snack shops along the street all the way. Poor Bamboo can only be obedient. Helping to carry those food boxes, he was almost overwhelmed by those food boxes in the end, attracting amusing glances from many people wherever he went.
Walking all the way, buying all the way, also extended the original journey of less than a stick of incense to half an hour, the little guy was completely satisfied.
When the father and son returned to Bixiaotang, the sun had already started to set in the west, and Nangongyue was in the small study room redrawing the dowry list for Xiao Fei.
After knowing that Yan Xijun needed to keep filial piety for a year, Xiao Fei came to Nangong Yue and discussed with her whether to go beyond him and betrothed to his younger sisters first.
Nangong Yue naturally knew that Xiao Fei meant that she was willing to wait for Yan Xijun for a year.
In Nangong Yue's opinion, a woman gets married once in her lifetime. In fact, as long as she chooses the right person, it doesn't matter whether she gets married early or late. In another year, Xiao Fei will be seventeen, which is the best time for the girl's body and mind. , enough to give birth to healthy children.
For this reason, Nangong Yue specially called Xiao Rongxuan and Xiao Rongying to come and told them that Xiao Fei's marriage was still under consideration, and I was afraid it would be decided later. Both girls said they were in no hurry.
Nangong Yue had already anticipated this point, Xiao Rongxuan promised it to Fang Shilei, and it is estimated that Xiao Rongxuan herself hoped that it would be one more year; Xiao Rongying is not too old, and she will wait another year to talk about marriage with the respect of a princess. , she would only be happier.
According to Xiao Yi, these things are nothing at all!
Since the marriage was a year later, Nangong Yue planned to add more dowry to Xiao Fei on the basis of the original one.
It turned out that the dowry share set by the Zhennan Palace was 20,000 taels of silver for the daughter and 10,000 taels for the concubine. Now Nangong Yue has added 10,000 taels to each, and is eagerly adding to the list, preparing to send people to Jiangnan. Go, get some more jewelry, buy some new fabrics.
She was pondering with her eyes down, when she heard Xiao Xiaoyu's clear voice: "Mother!"
Immediately after the sound of the curtain being lifted, the little guy rushed in and didn't see his mother for a long time. He hugged her arm affectionately, and carefully avoided her mother's high bulge. abdomen.
After acting coquettishly, he put on the appearance of a big brother again, put his ears on her abdomen, and asked, "Mother, is my sister good today?"
Xiao Xiaoyu's cute and caring look made Nangong Yue's mouth slightly cocked, and a shallow smile formed on her lips.
"My little sister is as good as Brother Yu." Nangong Yue coaxed two at a time, and the little ancestor in her belly seemed to be quite satisfied, and gave her a light kick.
The little guy also felt it, and shouted excitedly, "Mother, Daddy, my sister is greeting me!"
Xiao Yi, who followed his son into the house, was already so dark that ink was almost dripping from his face. Hearing this, he could no longer care about settling accounts with his son, and couldn't wait to get his hands on Nangong Yue's stomach.
Seeing the father and son's big and small heads sticking to their stomachs one by one, the smile in Nangong Yue's eyes grew even stronger.
It's a pity that this little ancestor in her womb is also naughty, making the father and son wait for a while, and there is no movement.
However, the little guy is also unwilling to give up. He insisted on waiting for his sister to play with him again. In desperation, Nangong Yue sat on the beautiful couch beside him, and the little guy who was tired but still refused to close his eyes snuggled up beside him. . She patted him regularly, trying to coax him to sleep without a trace.
"Where did our brother Yu and foster father go to play today?" Nangong Yue asked with a smile.
"Anxingzhuang..." Xiao Xiaoyu yawned while talking about what he had seen and heard about Anxingzhuang, about veterans, about fields, about fish ponds... Naturally, he also mentioned Mr. Hui and " Chaotic thieves" or something.
Nangong Yue pursed her cherry lips slightly, frowning involuntarily.
Of course Xiao Yi, who was leaning on the beauty's couch, also heard it, still with that casual expression, and said lightly, "Xiao Bai also told me about this just now."
The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth drew a mocking arc, "They are so loyal and patriotic to the king, but I have never seen them join the army and kill the enemy for Da Yu. It seems that the so-called loyal king is nothing more than this! This kind of person should not be taught badly. Children are taught to be pedantic."
Xiao Xiaoyu looked curiously at his father and then at his mother, his eyes narrowed into a line from sleepiness.
Xiao Yi calmly took advantage of the little guy's yawning, helped him adjust a posture, let him snuggle into his arms, and patted him lightly on the back a few times.
After playing for a long time, the little guy finally couldn't resist the call of the sleepy bug, and fell asleep snoring.
Seeing Xiao Yi skillfully coaxing their little guy, Nangong Yue's eyes became softer, like a Wang Chunshui, she took the small thin quilt on one side and put it on the little guy.
The little guy smelled the familiar smell on the quilt, snorted, pinched a corner of the quilt contentedly, and fell asleep more deeply.
Nangong Yue gently clipped the sideburns scattered on the little guy's cheeks behind his ears, and said, "Ayi, it's not a problem for someone who is black and white and never bends his back."
Saying that, Nangong Yue's eyes flashed, and her tone became meaningful, "I'm afraid that some people think they're 'bearing humiliation' and stay in the southern border to 'mistaken one's children'."
Originally, the way of Confucianism and Mencius of Confucianism is based on the foundation of loyalty to the ruler. If someone intends to instill some pedantic and ignorant thoughts in these white-paper-like children through teaching, I am afraid they can do it without knowing it.
Xiao Yi was stunned, and narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, Ah Yue was right.
"I'll discuss this with Xiao Bai later... It's not a big deal." Xiao Yi said, sitting up, slender fingers caressing Nangong Yue's cheeks, and said lightly, "On the battlefield with fate The fighting has also come, but they are just pedantic literati!"
Now that he has been on guard, he won't let some people take advantage of it.
Southern Xinjiang is located in the frontier. After years of wars, protecting the family and the country is naturally a top priority. It can be said that for hundreds of years, Southern Xinjiang has tended to focus on military force and less literature. Now that the situation is stable, for the sake of "more" In the long run, they should also carefully consider the issue of "reading"!
