Chapter 302 Who Knocks on the Window on a Snowy Night(1/2)
"It's snowing. It's snowing again!" Tingting shouted outside the door.
My master, Sixteenth Lady, and I were drinking together, but we didn't move. The snow outside the house seemed to have nothing to do with us.
Sixteenth mother stared at me and said, "The official from the North Gate used to come to me to drink. As long as I put my chopsticks and wine glasses, he would definitely come, but these days... he has never been there again. No one uses this wine glass and chopsticks."
It turns out that the chopsticks and wine glass were prepared for the officials of the North Gate. It seems that I am self-indulgent again. However, now the Sixteenth Lady asked me to use these chopsticks and wine glass. Is it because she was hinting to me?
"Aren't you afraid that the officials from the North Gate will come. When you see me drinking with you, will you blame you?"
"He won't come. No." Sixteenth Lady kept shaking her head. Some ladies seemed to be desperate when a man was distant.
I stood up, walked over, and grabbed her hand, "I will accompany you!"
She did not hide, but looked at me blankly, as if she had lost her soul. She wouldn't have regarded me as a great official in the North Gate. In terms of feelings, the ladies also like to move flowers and trees. It seems that they are good to this, but in fact they are another in their hearts.
"Xixteenth Lady!" Yizhen suddenly broke in like a snowman and stomped her feet. I quickly let go of the hand holding Xixteenth Lady to get the pot, pretending to pour wine for Xixteenth Lady.
"Oh, I'm drinking again." Yizhen said as if she didn't see anything, walked towards the door, and turned around and shook the snow on her headscarf.
Sixteenth Lady said: "It's a cold day! You can sit down and have a drink!"
"How dare we be servants? You drink, I'll go to the study first and wait for Teacher Zhou to teach me to write." Yizhen ran out quickly.
Sixteenth Lady said: "Xiao Zhou, how about this wine?"
“Very, very good.”
"This is Xiaolei who went to make a drink. Although Xiaolei is a little ugly and lazy, she can do something even if she is forced to run errands."
"Well, if Sixteenth Lady can tolerate her, we have nothing to say."
"It's not that I can tolerate it. Let's take a look. If there is a suitable one, I'd better find a way to sell it. If you have some food, go quickly. Don't let Yizhen wait for you."
I nodded, dried up the wine, and started to eat. After slim my mouth, I went to the study to teach Yizhen to write.
I read the word really written for a while and thought that her handwriting was very stylish, so it was really hard to talk nonsense, so I said, "Your handwriting is pretty good, just practice it in your own style. Have you learned calligraphy before?"
Yizhen said: "My grandfather's handwriting is very good. I learned it from him when I was a child."
I said, "To be honest, my words are inferior to yours."
"Where is it? Teacher Zhou's calligraphy has a fairy spirit that cannot be learned. Of course, I really ask you for advice because I appreciate it. Teacher, why don't we make a game and write poems together on the same piece of paper."
"How to write?"
"Actually, it's simple. I'll write one sentence, you write one sentence. But there is one sentence, each sentence must come from a different poem, and you can't think about it for too long. Do you think it's okay?"
"Okay. You write it first."
Yizhen and I were in writing and ink against poetry. In fact, when I was mute, I had once faced Furong like this.
Yizhen wrote: There are beautiful women in the north,
I wrote: The mind cannot speak.
Three days into the kitchen,
The jade plate is worth ten thousand yuan.
How deep the courtyard is,
The snow presses the plum blossoms on the top of the wall.
At this time, the Sixteenth Lady walked in.
"Write quickly, continue writing." I urged Yizhen.
Yizhen smiled with a pen and said, "You lost!"
"Why did I lose?"
"Which poem is the snow pressing against the plum blossoms' heads from? Which one wrote it?"
"Of course there is a source, but how could I write it out without it? This poem is called "Ode to Plum Blossoms". As for who wrote it, it did not leave its name, but many people in our village will recite this poem."
"Then do you think behind the scenes?"
"Ode to the plum blossoms, the jade flowers are broken and jade is long, the two mountains are the same color but speechless. But when the ruts are seen, there is no one, and the snow presses the plum blossoms on the top of the wall."
Yizhen said: "It's quite acceptable, but I always feel like you made up it up."
"Haha, you can't say that. There are many people who write poetry, and naturally there are many poems. There will inevitably be many people who are not as good as the classic ones, but even the people in our village remember this poem that is not as good as the classic ones."
"Don't be with your village, do you have to magnify your vision?"
As we spoke, we suddenly felt a little neglected by Sixteenth Lady, and I smiled at Sixteenth Lady.
Yizhen might have felt it too, so he quickly said to Shiliu Niang: "Sixteenth mother, do you want to try writing too?"
Sixteenth Lady said: "I don't recognize these words, and I can't write them."
Yizhen said: "Just compare to painting."
Sixteenth Lady took the pen from my hand and drew some characters that we didn't know.
Yizhen said: "Xixteenth Lady, what are you pronunciating these words?"
Sixteenth Lady smiled and shook her head.
The three of us wrote randomly in the study, which was quite interesting.
Yizhen said, "I'm leaving."
I said, "I'll give you."
Sixteenth Lady said: "Let Tingting give it to you. Tingting..."
Ai Tingting responded and ran in.
Sixteenth Lady said: "Go to send Yizhen with a lantern."
Tingting said, "The snow outside is so heavy! Why don't you go back and sleep with me."
Yizhen said: "How can that be done? It would be great if I could just take a break. If I leave for a long time, the officials from the North Gate will be unhappy."
Sixteenth Lady asked, "Are the official from the North Gate still there tonight?"
Yizhen said: "Beautiful lady has been feeling uncomfortable these two days. The great official went to Wu Niang's place early."
"Oh." Sixteenth Lady turned and left the study.
Yizhen said: "Sixteenth Mother, don't worry, I guess he will definitely come to you in the next two days."
Tingting said: "Sixteenth Mother, let Xiao Zhou accompany me to give me Yizhen, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come back alone."
Sixteenth Lady said, "Okay. Go and go back."
When I was sending Yizhen back, Tingting walked quickly in front. I walked very slowly. I was listening carefully to the sound of stepping on the snow, which was very nice.
Of course, my ears were so painful that my face was so painful that I kept rubbing my hands and face.
Tingting turned around and urged me: "Can you get faster? You don't want to freeze in such a cold day, right?"
I ran a few quick steps and kicked snow on my feet.
Tingting said, "I ask you, didn't you say that Zhang Jun's soldiers defeated Liu Zhe and Jin soldiers? Why are there still Jin soldiers around us?"
I said, "Our place is special. In the past, we were not at the border. Now, it is different and it becomes the border area, and it will naturally become chaos."
"Then you tell me, what if the Jin soldiers defeated our county town one day, will we die?"
"Not necessarily, you might be able to marry the officials of Jin Zhe and Liu Zhe as a wife."
"Bah! Who do you think of me? When they are coming, I will fight with them. I don't understand, if you have such a good kung fu, why don't you vote for Zhang Jun, Yue Fei, Liu Guangshi, and Han Shizhong? Why do you have to stay in this deep courtyard?"
"Haha, you know a lot, you know these people."
"I haven't seen it anyway. I always remember it when I hear others say it. Haven't you answered my questions yet?"
"I don't know what will happen to me in the future. I took one step at a time. When I saw that the Beimen family posted the list in Ruye County, I came out."
"I can see that you like Sixteenth Lady. Have you ever met Sixteenth Lady before?"
"Things are nothing."
"Then you just like Wu Niang."
"No."
"Then I ask you, do you like Jahani?"
"How could it be?"
"Why can't it? I have evidence."
"What evidence do you have?"
"I won't tell you!"
"We did nothing anyway."
When Tingting walked under a tree, I kicked the tree, and the snow fell on Tingting's head. Tingting shouted, "It's so cool!" and chased me.
I ran around the tree, and sometimes when she was about to arrive at the tree, I did the same thing and it was tried and tried again and again.
To be continued...
