Two days passed quickly. With the help of Wang Bolin and the captured young men, the Yunjing family's land was almost sown, and in a blink of an eye it was the day they agreed to go on an outing.
Wang Bolin and the others are children of a wealthy family in the town. They have never experienced hardship since they were young. They come to Yunjing's house to play and have to farm. It is really difficult for them, but they have no regrets. From this, we can see how many
human relationships.
In their words, this is called experiencing life, and they enjoy it. However, they also made a lot of jokes during the period, and sometimes it was not helpful. However, farming is not high-tech. As long as you are not a fool, a few lessons will do.
OK, it's not a big problem.
"Uncle, aunt, old man, let's take our leave now and come back to visit you another day."
At the entrance of Yunjing's courtyard, several people who had eaten some light farm breakfast were saying goodbye. They were very polite and showed no domineering behavior as a young master from a wealthy family in the town.
One thing to say is that several of them are educated. Although they have no great achievements, there is nothing to say about etiquette. The teacher taught them with a stick, and it is engraved in their bones.
Strictly speaking, the larger the family, the more attention it pays to the etiquette of the younger generations. In this era, people attach great importance to face. No matter what happens behind the scenes, the superficial demeanor must still be maintained...
"Good boy, you have worked hard these past two days. Come and play often from now on, and aunt will prepare delicious food for you." Jiang Susu looked at Wang Bolin and the others with a kind face and smiled.
She likes the liveliness at home, and it doesn't matter if she is busy. She doesn't feel annoyed at all. When Yunjing's friends come, she treats them as her own children.
Zhou Jintai scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Don't worry, Auntie, we will come often in the future. It's just that I eat too much, so I'm embarrassed."
"Fat man, you also said that half of the food cooked by my aunt went into your stomach. You are just like a pig," Chen Yijian said with disdain.
Wang Bolin thought deeply and said: "I want to taste everything, and I wish I could take a bite of mud. When will this temper change?"
"I'm just greedy and I can't change it. What do you think I should do?" Zhou Jintai said with a smile on his face.
Looking at the commotion of a few people with a smile, Jiang Susu turned around and took out a few pieces of bacon and said: "You guys come here, there is nothing to entertain at home, here, take these bacon back and try them, there are not many, don't dislike it."
"How embarrassing is this?" Wang Bolin waved his hand immediately.
Yunjing shook his head and said, "Just take it for you. The bacon smoked by my mother cannot be bought elsewhere."
"Really?" Zhou Jintai couldn't hear this, his eyes lit up and he licked his lips.
With an aunt's smile on her face, Jiang Susu handed the bacon to them and said, "Okay, let's go play. Have fun, but also pay attention to safety."
"Thank you Auntie, let's go first." Wang Bolin and the others still accepted the bacon. Yunjing's family came here countless times, so they didn't want to be too polite, otherwise they would appear to be indifferent.
Yunjing said: "Mom, go and do your work. We will go and play in two days and then come back. It will be fine."
The place where you want to go for an outing is neither far nor close. One day is obviously not enough. If you want to have a full time, you naturally need to spend more time.
After Yunjing and the others left, Jiang Xiaoxi came out of the house and said slightly worriedly to Jiang Susu: "Sister, do you want me to follow you secretly and keep an eye on them? They are still children. If you encounter bad people when you go out..."
"No need, they are not young anymore, and they will bring guards. Besides, Xiao Jing has even been to the border. If you are sensible, the children will always grow up," Jiang Susu said with some emotion.
After thinking about it, Jiang Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Yes, I can't see clearly Xiaojing now. I thought he was only that old when he went back with you, but it's been a few years in the blink of an eye."
"Don't worry about them. Today, sister, are you going to follow me and learn female red, or will you plant your few acres of land?" Jiang Susu turned around and said.
With a hesitant smile, Jiang Xiaoxi said: "Let's go farming."
She doesn't like female red makeup very much. It's not that she can't learn it. After all, she can learn anything as complex as martial arts. But now, who will reward her for being able to embroider red makeup with female red makeup?
After coming out of home, Yunjing and the others went straight to the town.
Wang Bolin and the other three rode to Yunjing's house. The horses given to Yunjing by his senior brother were kept in the town and looked after by Song Yan, so they could only ride with Chen Yijian.
They arrived at Niujiao Town in a noisy way. The group of people temporarily separated and agreed to meet on the other side of the town in an hour.
When going on an outing, especially if you have to spend the night in the countryside, you have to prepare something.
The place they want to go for an outing is called Qingxi Stream, which is more than 30 miles away from Niujiao Town. The scenery there is beautiful and it is a good place to go in spring. On these days when the warm breeze makes tourists drunk, it can really attract many people to go there.
Arriving at the small courtyard on the outskirts, Song Yan was already waiting here.
"Master, everything is ready," Song Yan said as soon as he saw Yunjing.
Because he was going on an outing and had two days of sightseeing, he had to prepare some things. Yunjing took the time to come here last night and told Song Yan to prepare them in advance.
Song Yan was still very relieved when he was doing things in Yunjing, so he nodded and said: "In that case, let's go when we are ready."
"Okay, young master, please wait a moment. I'll drive the ox cart over. Do you really don't need to bring two maids from the master's house to protect you?" Song Yan said hesitantly.
Yunjing can now be said to be a respectable person. How can he not have a maid to protect him when he goes on an outing? Although Yunjing has always been low-key, he naturally has to think about his master.
Yunjing shook his head and said: "No, going out for an outing is all about the fun of doing it yourself. If everything is done by others, what's the point?"
"I understand." Song Yan was not surprised and went out to catch the bus.
Soon after, he drove an ox cart to the road not far from the small courtyard, and Yunjing closed the door and passed by.
The oxcart was pulled by a large buffalo. It was very spacious and covered with soft blankets. It had no carriage, but it had a large, umbrella-like canopy covering the top to protect it from the rain.
After all, Yunjing is a scholar, not a man of the world. He prefers to travel leisurely and leisurely, so he doesn't use horse-drawn carts. Oxen are good, and he travels slowly and leisurely.
The car is always equipped with pens, inks, paper and inkstones, as well as a small table, pillows and cushions, which are convenient for Yunjing to read and relax while in the car.
In addition, Yunjing also asked Song Yan to prepare a small red clay stove, good charcoal, and some fresh vegetables and seasonings. Pots and pans were also prepared. For an outing, while having fun, there were also
There is a saying called picnic. Anyway, you will be happy anyway.
Yunjing put on the pure white scholar's clothes. After getting in the car, he took off his shoes, leaned on the soft cushion, held the book in his hand, smelled the spring breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers, and said: "Let's go and wait for the king at the entrance of the town on the other side."
Berlin them”
"Okay, young master," Song Yan nodded. He acted as the coachman and drove the coach slowly forward. Next to him, a long knife lay quietly.
Yunjing didn't bring a escort maid, so Song Yan had to wear multiple hats, including coachman, servant, and bodyguard. Fortunately, he had gotten used to it over the years. Although Yunjing was very capable, he couldn't rely on Song Yan to protect him, but how could he bother with small things?
Yunjing came forward in person? Otherwise, what's the point of being a servant?
Song Yan is a swordsman, he is not a scholar and does not need elegance.
The weather was very good that day, the wind was sunny, the roadside was covered with green grass, and some wild flowers were blooming, red, white, yellow, and purple, and the faint fragrance of flowers filled the air. The breath of spring was endless and beautiful.
Farmers are working in the fields, children are happily flying kites, tourists are strolling along the paths, and some ladies are stepping out of their boudoirs to feel the breath of spring...
The cloud scenery reading leisurely on the bullock cart is a bit drowsy. This kind of leisurely day is really intoxicating.
When they arrived at the agreed place, Yun Jing was not the first to arrive. Wang Bolin shouted from a distance: "At A Jing's side, the swordsman and the fat man haven't come yet, and so have those two guys. They are so stained."
Compared with Yun Jing's light and simple travel, Wang Bolin was much more grand, with a spacious ox cart with two maids on it, and also brought the concubine who had been troubled by him early, and then the cart driver and book boy, and there were other people around.
There were four mounted guards, and then there was a carriage behind them. Good guys, there were almost ten people in the group. Those who didn’t know better thought they were moving far away.
As a big family in the town, Wang Bolin's family has done a good job in going out.
Song Yan drove over and greeted Wang Bolin immediately.
"I've seen Master Yun." The servants Wang Bolin brought also saluted respectfully towards Yun Jing. Those on horseback dismounted, and those on the bullock cart simply squatted down and saluted.
Yunjing was Wang Bolin's best friend, and they all knew it, so they didn't dare to show any slights. The situation where a servant dared to be displeased with his master's friend simply didn't exist.
Yunjing put down the scroll, nodded first without getting up, and then said to Wang Bolin: "Just wait, I think it won't be long before they come."
"Those two guys have agreed a long time ago, but now there is no one to see." Wang Bolin said speechlessly, then looked at Yun Jing and said in shock: "What, A Jing, there are only two of you?
"
"That's good," Yun Jing said with a smile.
Looking at the two maids and concubines beside him, Wang Bolin said, "How about I ask Xiaojuan to come over and serve you?"
Xiaojuan is not his concubine. Although the current custom is that concubines exist... um um um..., Wang Bolin is still a little reluctant to let go. The maid named Xiaojuan is fifteen or sixteen years old, petite and exquisite. After hearing Wang Bolin's words
Quietly looking at the cloud scenery, my cheeks are slightly red, and my heart is filled with joy.
Yunjing shook his head and said, "No, I'm not used to it. This is fine."
Xiaojuan suddenly felt lost...
Rolling his eyes, Wang Bolin joked: "That's right, Ah Jing, you don't need a maid at all. Hehe, I guess as long as you are willing, there are plenty of beautiful girls on your fingertips to come and serve you wholeheartedly. Look, there are many girls around you secretly
Look at you, you are all shy and timid, I’ll forget it if you’re so annoyed.”
"You guy, what have you been thinking about all day?" Yunjing was speechless.
With a smile, Wang Bolin said: "You don't understand me yet."
While they were talking, Zhou Jintai and Chen Yijian arrived one after another, followed by a large group of people, including the maids, guards and servants.
Among them, Chen Yijian wanted to join the world after all. Although he had prepared an ox-cart and a horse-drawn carriage, he was riding a horse. He was dressed in fine clothes and had a long sword hanging from his waist. He came on horseback. It looked like that.
"You have fallen into a trap, it took you so long to come here," Wang Bolin shouted immediately.
Zhou Jintai struggled to sit up on the bullock cart and curled his lips and said: "Lin Zi, you are right. We made an appointment for an hour and it didn't go out. Why are you urging me? Men, many times too much is not good. I can see it.
Well, you are a gentle guy who has become weak after staying in this gentle country for too long, so you want to do everything quickly?"
"Gungungun, I'm in good health, so I'm not weak." Wang Bolin immediately glared.
The concubine who was squeezing his shoulders blushed with embarrassment. Wang Bolin was a pervert who tormented her a lot. If Wang Bolin's real wife hadn't married her yet, her belly might have been enlarged several times.
Already...
Chen Yijian coughed, attracting everyone's attention and said: "What do you think of me? Do I look like a knight-errant?"
"What the hell are you knights? There is no knight who doesn't live alone, like you, with a group of guards and maids around him," Zhou Jintai choked him.
Chen Yijian's servant wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh. He was holding back because his young master had always yearned for the world, but he didn't want to be a scholar. It was a big difference.
Rolling his eyes, Chen Yijian said: "You know nothing, just wait, I will become a world-famous hero in the future, see how I play at your door."
Yunjing interrupted them and said: "Okay, everyone is here, let's go, it's getting late."
"That's right, let's go for a walk. Walking along Qingxi Stream, I've gained weight from staying at home, so I have to go and have some fun," Zhou Jintai urged.
Wang Bolin curled his lips and said: "You guy, you grow fat just by drinking water."
"Bah, you're just drinking water." Zhou Jintai disliked him for not being able to speak.
Unexpectedly, Wang Bolin laughed and said, "You know nothing about the taste of saliva, tsk..." As he said that, he looked at the small mouth of the concubine next to him.
His concubine immediately blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and said, "Mr. Lang, so many people are watching."
"That's serious, you're killing the dog. Let's go, let's go, out of sight." Zhou Jintai immediately rolled his eyes.
Chen Yijian curled his lips, with an expression like "I am devoted to Xiangwu and I have no interest in women."
Everyone was here, chatting and laughing as they set off in a grand way. Yunjing was also amused, so he just went out for an outing. There was such a big group of people...
The journey to Qingxi Stream is not far or near, and it takes a while to get there. After starting the journey, Wang Bolin and the others simply came to Yunjing's car. His side was spacious and there was no room for the maids to occupy.
Zhou Jintai brought the dried meat and preserved fruits that had been prepared in advance, Wang Bolin asked the maid to make a pot of tea, and Chen Yijian brought two jars of wine. They ate and drank, talking and laughing in the spring sunshine, not to mention how comfortable it was.
After chatting happily, Wang Bolin said that he didn't know where he heard the gossip, and said: "Have you heard about it? Recently, an extremely beautiful woman came to Niujiao Town. No one has seen her true face. She looks like
She was looking for something. Many people took advantage of her and she killed many of them. She was a powerful character. I heard that many blind people were almost beaten to death, and many had their hands and feet broken. It really made the town's medical center a lot of money.
made a fortune"
Yunjing had a hopeless expression on his face, drank a small glass of wine and said: "Lin Zi, you are quite powerful. I don't know about other places. Just around Niujiao Town, you probably don't know where there are beautiful girls."
Right? It’s not like you’ve never tasted fresh food, so why are you always thinking about the girl?”
"Ajing, it's not like you don't know, this is the only fun I have left in my life. I can't do anything in literature or martial arts, and if I'm not interested, I have some hobbies," Wang Bolin said without feeling ashamed.
Zhou Jintai interrupted and said, "Wait a minute, since no one has seen that woman's true face, how do you know she is beautiful?"
"I heard, do you understand what I heard?" Wang Bolin said speechlessly, then turned to Chen Yijian and asked: "By the way, swordsman, you just want to break into the world, haven't you heard of this?"
After pondering for a while, Chen Yijian said: "I have heard of this matter. That woman is very clever. No one around Niujiao Town is her opponent. No one knows her name. But she seems to be looking for someone. As for the specific person, she is looking for someone."
No one knows, I don’t know her anyway.”
Song Yan drove the car quietly. When he heard this, he said to himself that it was because the woman who came from nowhere had not seen the real horror of Niujiao Town. Not to mention the princess's house and the master's house, but our young master was here. Who dared to act like a grown-up in Niujiao Town?
Cloves of garlic?
Shaking his head, Yun Jing said with a smile: "Forget it, don't mention this, it's none of our business anyway. By the way, you may not know yet. I guess Lin Yexing will get married soon. I met him while studying abroad last year.
He, he and a woman are in love, and if things work out, the invitation might come sometime."
"Why is it none of our business? What if that woman is looking for you, A Jing..." Wang Bolin muttered, then he put it behind him and said happily: "Lin Yexing is actually getting married? When did it happen?
Tell me quickly”
"This matter has to start from Xieyang City. Speaking of that day..."
Qingxi Stream is not a scenic spot, nor does it have any towns or villages. It is just a wilderness mountain stream. I don’t know when someone discovered the beautiful environment here, and then spread the word, attracting an endless stream of people.
play.
Especially on this warm spring day, the flowers are in full bloom, making this a good place for an outing.
No matter where there are more people, there will always be economically minded people, and all kinds of vendors will be attracted.
At present, Qingxi Stream has not yet been damaged to the extent that the environment has been damaged, and no one has occupied it to open a shop to attract customers and collect tourist fees.
When Yunjing and the others arrived, it was already afternoon, and it was a lively time here. There were ladies, literati, and knights... There were many tourists who came after hearing the news. They were everywhere in the mountains and in the streams.
Leave their footprints behind.
"I just said it's fun here. There are so many people, so that's right." Wang Bolin said enthusiastically as he stood in the car, his eyes scanning around, obviously looking for a pleasing girl.
Zhou Jintai said with great interest: "I saw a few familiar figures. It seems that they also studied in the school in the town, but they are not familiar with them. Do you want to say hello?"
"Forget it, let's play our own game. Hey, look at the costumes of those people. They are obviously from Fengdaomen Liuye Sword Sect and Iron Spear Hall. I never thought that people from all the big sects in Xinlin County are here. Do we want to
Keep a low profile," Chen Yijian said in surprise.
Wang Bolin looked away and said speechlessly: "Swordsman, don't you just want to join the world? Why are you so cowardly? Shouldn't you go up and make friends?"
"You know nothing, don't you get into trouble when you go out?" Chen Yijian despised him for being uneducated.
Yunjing felt funny in his heart. He originally thought he could come to a quiet place with beautiful mountains and clear waters for an outing, but he didn't expect that there were so many people there, so there was more noise and less tranquility.
But whatever, just be happy.
Looking around, he said: "This mountain stream is deep and quiet, and there are too many tourists on the outside. Why don't we go deep inside and find a quiet place to camp?"
"Okay, but there is no road inside, so our carriages and horses can only be left outside," Zhou Jintai said tangledly.
Chen Yijian jumped off the bullock cart and said: "There are many of us, so each of us can move some, and just leave a few people here to guard the carts and horses."
"Haha, fat man is going to be unlucky. There is no road. I'll see how you go," Wang Bolin said happily, as if he wanted to see Zhou Jintai's unlucky face.
Little did he know that Zhou Jintai had already prepared for it and said, "Do you think I didn't think of it? I'll sit on the sliding pole and let Lao Deng and the others carry me in. If that doesn't work, I'll let them carry me on their backs. Humph, I won't suffer."
"You're too lazy to forget it," Wang Bolin despised.
The servants were very knowledgeable and sensible. After stopping, they started to carry the items they brought. There were dozens of people in the group, and each person brought some. It was not a big problem. The maid was weak, but she was not incapable of enduring hardships. She served the master, no matter how hard it was.
They have to endure it. In fact, they are very happy when they go out to play. Staying in the house all day is boring. When they go out, they are all very happy.
Leaving a few guards behind to guard the carriages and horses, Yunjing and his party headed deeper into the mountain stream when they were ready. No one came to trouble them along the way. They were all enjoying themselves. After all, no one knew anyone else.
When he came here, Yunjing did not use his mind to observe the surrounding environment, because that would be a lot less fun. Turning a corner, turning over a stone, it would be a different scene, leaving some surprises and expectations for himself, why not
Woolen cloth.
This kind of life is really comfortable. There is no fighting or intrigue. I invite a few friends to go out for an outing, chat, and leave laughter along the way. Isn't it wonderful?
Two or three miles into the Qingxi Stream, there were very few tourists who could come to this location. Yunjing and the others found a meadow with flowers in full bloom and stopped.
The trivial matters of setting up camp are naturally done by servants. They are going to spend the night here. Several guards consciously patrol the surroundings, while the maids are busy organizing items and preparing to light a fire for cooking.
As for Yunjing and the others, they just have fun.
"There is a small stream over there, and the water in the puddle is quite deep. There should be fish. I will go fishing for a while, but my hands are very itchy. If we catch something later, we will bake it and eat it. This time we will not be afraid of it.", Yun
Jing looked around and said with bright eyes.
Song Yan, who was watching him silently, quickly went to prepare fishing gear. These things were all prepared in advance.
Wang Bolin looked like a stray dog and said, "Okay, Ah Jing, go ahead. I'll look around. Hey, I don't know if there's any young lady hiding in a mountain stream to bathe."
"You're overthinking it. It's early spring, and it's warm and cold at first. Besides, what little girl in the wilderness knows how to bathe on the terrace? Anyway, please pay attention to your own safety," Yun Jing said silently.
"Don't worry, I'll take my guards with me," Wang Bolin waved his hands and ran away impatiently.
Zhou Jintai searched everywhere, looking like he wanted to try everything he saw. Not to mention, he even grabbed a few wild flowers and put them in his mouth. This guy was not afraid of being poisoned.
Chen Yijian looked around enthusiastically and said: "I'm going to climb a mountain. It's nice to stand on the top of the mountain and have a panoramic view of the mountains. Just wait. I'll see if you can hear me when I stand on the top of the mountain."
After saying this, the guy ran off to climb the mountain.
When you go out for an outing, of course you have to have fun. This is just the beginning. After enough fun, there is plenty of time for drinking and having fun.
"Mr. Lang, wait for me. I can wash it for you quietly later." Wang Bolin's concubine whispered as she caught up with him with a resentful look on her face.
As a concubine, in order to please her husband, she doesn't care about the cold water of the stream. If her husband likes this kind of tune, then she can satisfy him.
Yunjing didn't care about them. He came to the stream with his fishing rod and sat on a stone. He used earthworms as bait. After throwing the rod, he stared at the float and waited for the fish to take the bait. He took a sip of wine from time to time. These days were peaceful.
ah.
I would like to be drunk in this spring breeze, at this time, at that time, at that time.
I still want to express my love for the mountains and rivers, yesterday, today, tomorrow...
