After the discussion, the three of them walked down to the attic together. Perhaps because of the heavy topic just now, they walked along the corridor together for a long time, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was very dull.
At this moment, Wang Feixiao suddenly said: "In the old house in Qixian County, the stone crack at the entrance to the hall is still there."
Qin Liang didn't know what his second uncle was talking about and was confused.
Linghuyu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed out loud: "It must have been more than thirty years, does the second uncle really keep it?"
Wang Feixiao also showed a smile: "I didn't keep it on purpose. Later, no one lived in the old house, so no one rebuilt the foundation. Will it always be there?"
The second uncle glanced at Qin Liang and explained: "Your cousin was very noisy when he was a child. Once when he came to live with the Wang family, his grandmother wouldn't let him climb a tree to dig out bird's nests, so he took a wood saw and cut it hard.
A deep crack was cut out of a stone at the door of the main room, and the breath was released just now."
Qin Liang also laughed out loud after hearing this.
Linghu Yu was a little embarrassed and said: "Zhong Ming is a junior, what are you going to tell him about those old things?"
Wang Feixiao said: "At that time, my brother said that he should keep the stone until he gets married and show it to his cousin."
He then turned around and said with a smile, "When your cousin was a child, he had a fierce spirit that refused to be obeyed by anyone, and no one could control him. But when he grew up, he was still able to obey others. Emperor Wen asked him to change his name, and he did so.
Yes, haha!”
In fact, Qin Liang doesn't mind being ignored. Sometimes he doesn't say much.
Linghuyu shook his head, but sighed: "My grandmother was still alive at that time, alas."
After saying this sentence, the atmosphere suddenly became a little sad. Linghuyu went on to say: "It happened many years ago. My grandmother doted on me the most. It seems that just in the blink of an eye, I have reached the age of forty. It's like a dream."
Wang Feixiao said to Qin Liang: "One time when your third uncle was beaten, what did you say? He was not as good as an outsider from the Linghu family."
Linghu said with a foolish smile: "Yes, I am an outsider."
The three of them chatted for a while, and when it was almost noon, Qin Liang returned to the courtyard where Wang Guang lived to have lunch.
His expression has returned to normal, and there is almost nothing unusual about it. After enduring fear for a long time over the years, he has developed skills and improved his control over his emotions.
Miraculously, it only took one morning for my maternal aunt Zhuge Shu to get along well with Lingjun. Zhuge Shu and Wang Guang seemed to be very distant from each other, but they became familiar with Lingjun first.
After all, she was only a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, and her thoughts were relatively simple. Wang Lingjun was respectful and polite to her, so Zhuge Shu was very kind to her, and even persuaded her to eat more meat during meals.
In fact, Wang Lingjun is probably not very satisfied with this matter. The new mother is a few years younger than her, and Wang Guang is still in mourning. However, since Zhuge Shu is the wife of his father's matchmaker, with Wang Lingjun's temperament, it is impossible to treat his elders.
No disrespect, at least she can't fault her etiquette.
And people are all mutual. With Zhuge Shu's attitude, Wang Lingjun seems to have gradually begun to accept this young mother. Because Wang Lingjun also made sweet mung bean soup in advance today.
Qin Liang has many teenage mothers-in-law, so he doesn't feel too bad about it. After all, there is still a big difference between mother-in-law and mother. Moreover, he has a good impression of Zhuge Shu.
After lunch, your Majesty put the mung bean soup in a celadon basin, soaked it in well water to cool down, and asked the maid to bring it to the room. Then she took out a small iron bowl, put some tonic in it, and added
Put the small iron bowl into the celadon basin.
Ling Jun added water to the small iron bowl, and the supplement quickly melted. After a while, a layer of ice quickly appeared on the surface of the mung bean soup in the celadon basin.
"Ah!" Zhuge Shu exclaimed like a child, looking at the ice layer on the soup with curiosity, as if watching a trick. Her voice was also full of surprise, "How did you do it?"
Wang Lingjun said softly: "You can use Buxiao, which will make the soup cooler. In the north, ice cubes will be stored and used when the weather is hot. The snow in Huainan is not heavy, and sometimes it doesn't snow, so it is more convenient to use Buxiao."
.”
Lingjun filled a bowl first, glanced at Wang Guang, and then brought it to Wang Guang with both hands. Wang Guang said: "Let your stepmother taste it first."
Zhuge Shu took it and took a breath, her small eyes smiled like the moon, "It's really cold, cold and sweet."
Qin Liang looked at his grandma's appearance and suddenly felt that when he was young and innocent, he actually had a better life experience. A little fresh things could make him happy for a long time. But an old man in his forties like Wang Guang, and a living person like Qin Liang
People who have lived two lives no longer have a strong sense of many things.
Qin Liang said: "The best place to sell this thing is in the State of Wu. The State of Wu neither produces supplements nor icehouses, and the noble merchants there are very rich. As soon as summer comes, the caravans of the Wei State and the Shu State will
I will transport this kind of stuff to Wu State."
Zhuge Shu said softly: "What does Zhongming know?"
Qin Liang said: "I don't dare, I just know this."
Wang Guang and Qin Liang looked at each other and showed a slightly relieved smile. The family relationship is harmonious, and everyone hopes so.
At this time Wang Guang said: "Guanqiu Jian has a concubine named Yang Ying, who actually sent a congratulatory gift from a long distance for General Guanqiu. Guanqiu Jian has little contact with the Wang family. Is it because he has made friends with Zhongming?"
Qin Liang didn't remember the name at first, but after a while, his face suddenly became clear.
He had little contact with Guan Qiu Jian, because after Qin Liang became an official, Guan Qiu Jian was almost absent from Luoyang and did not have much opportunity to move around. Even when he gave gifts during the New Year, he could not send them to Guan Qiu Jian; Yang Ying and Qin Liang
It's quite related.
Yang Ying was the dancer in Cao Shuang's mansion, and Qin Liang also gave her a generous dowry.
Qin Liang couldn't say much for a while, so he could only nod and said: "Back to my uncle, we have some contacts."
Wang Guangdao: "That's right. I heard that Guanqiu Zhonggong defeated Goguryeo last year and made outstanding military achievements. Zhongming is good at military affairs. If he couldn't be the governor of Lujiang at the beginning, it would be good to be the governor of Youzhou. He will definitely be able to do it this time.
Make military exploits."
Qin Liang thought to himself: What's the use? At most, he can only be granted a title of marquis, but can he be given the title of governor or governor? Guanqiu Jian destroyed Goguryeo, and no one under his command was promoted to governor or governor.
In comparison, it is better to be the guard of Lujiang County. Lujiang now has basically mastered the private soldiers, garrison guards, and Qin Liang, and promoted a large number of lower-level generals; if there are middle- and upper-level generals who do not obey orders, they can directly use Yang Wei and others
Just replace him with someone. The main reason is that under Wang Ling's command, at critical times, the Wang family is still more reliable than Guanqiu Jian.
Qin Liang thought for a while and nodded: "What my uncle said is true, but it would be more satisfying to be under my grandfather's command."
The four members of the family drank ice-cold mung bean soup to relieve the heat and talked. The sultry afternoon seemed not so difficult after all.
