Stepmother Shaoguang

Chapter 37 Chongyang
On the Double Ninth Festival, people have to climb high. There is Jingshan Mountain outside the imperial palace in the capital. It is short and suitable for people like He Shaoguang who are not good at sports.

Before going out, I gave each of you a few leaves of dogwood and put them in your purse to ward off evil spirits.He took out the chrysanthemum wine again, after drinking it, it means avoiding the plague.

These are the traditions left by the ancestors.

Put on clothes that are easy to walk in, and set off in a carriage. The last time such a large-scale trip among the common people was in Qingming.

Today Shi Nianjiao didn't go out because of her hard pregnancy, only He Shaoguang and Xu Ruyun were in the carriage.Listening to the noisy conversation of the people outside, it is also comfortable and relaxing.

Seeing that she was almost slumped on the car mat, Xu Ruyun laughed: "Second siblings are so casual, uncle and aunt must love siblings very much, right?" There was envy in her words.

He Shaoguang pinched a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and gnawed it slowly.

"My mother often said that if I was born in someone else's family like me, I would be beaten every day. The most troublesome thing for her is me, but I think my second brother is also the same."

"Is it really a family? If you don't enter a family."

"That's right, but my elder brother is different. He is the most disciplined every day. I almost avoid him at home." Speaking of which, He Changfeng is about to end, right?Next year in autumn, when will you ask someone to go to the He Mansion to ask if you want to participate?

All the men in the He family said that they were married late, but Father He insisted that they should establish a career before starting a family.Speaking of which, if He Changfeng wins the exam this time, Haishi should show him a favor.

I don't know what kind of woman can stand his temper, alas, he is so rigid and black-bellied.

He Shaoguang held his face and yelled at his eldest brother's married life, thinking that it must be very boring!

I haven't seen them for a few months, but I miss them a lot.

Unexpectedly, at the foot of the mountain, I ran into the He family who also came to climb the mountain.

Just now, he was still smearing the image of the big brother in front of Xu Ruyun, now seeing that coffin face again, He Shaoguang felt guilty.

Xu Ruyun looked at He Shaoguang, then at He Changfeng.There is a difference between men and women, so she was embarrassed to read more, but she really felt that what He Shaoguang said was absolutely right, she really had a coffin face.

These brothers and sisters are really interesting.

He Changfeng's face was calm and there was no disturbance, but Haishi and He Jingsong seemed much more excited.

"Father, mother, what a coincidence for the eldest brother. Hey, where is the second brother?" It was strange not to see He Changjie.

"He went out with the army." It was He Changfeng who answered, but He Jingsong was fine, and he was worried when he mentioned this Haishi.

"Tell me, no one told him to go, he clamored to sign up! He couldn't even stop him." Hai's face showed disapproval. The child has grown up, and he really has his own ideas.

He Shaoguang pursed his lips and smiled: "Second brother has practiced for so long since he was a soldier in the camp, and his skills are pretty good. Go out and earn fame, and when you come back, your mother will have a bright face too?" It's just that Lu Xiaowen didn't tell her why ?Maybe she didn't remember that He Changjie was her brother at all?

He Changjie is now the head of a hundred households, and Lu Xiaowen may not even know him.

Although the words were so comforting, He Shaoguang was also worried.

"Let's not talk about the second brother, the eldest brother will end next year, right?" He Shaoguang thought about the question just now, even though he was out of breath climbing the mountain, he still took the time to ask it.

"Yes, with your eldest brother's knowledge, there is no big problem with this fate." He Jingsong was also happy when he said this.

He Changfeng studies hard and travels around the world. It is really not a problem if he wants to win the exam. It depends on whether he can get a good ranking and the starting point is higher.

"Then I'll wish my brother success here in advance." He Shaoguang said playfully, and Xu Ruyun came up with her, and also said a few auspicious words.

After all, it was someone who was praising him, He Changfeng stopped being stern, and eased his expression, thank you.

When we reached the top of the mountain, many people were already sitting on the ground. Young students were drinking and composing poems here, and families traveling together brought lunch to share food here, which is quite wild.

He Shaoguang brought a straw mat, spread it on the floor, and sat down with Xu Ruyun.He took out the Double Ninth Cake and half a jar of chrysanthemum wine in the morning, and asked if the He family would like to be together?
After all, they are two families. Although He Jingsong and Hai Shi wanted to get close to their daughter, they still refused.

He Shaoguang didn't hold back, anyway, we could still meet each other in the future, so he split the cake with Xu Ruyun.

After resting for half an hour, the number of people on the mountain gradually increased. Looking at the heads at the foot of the mountain, He Shaoguang wondered, "Why are there so many people?"

She used to climb this mountain too, and not so many people came. This year, there are really many people in the capital.

Xu Ruyun didn't like the crowd, so she proposed to go back.He Shaoguang also agreed, and after going out for half a day, she climbed another mountain. She was very tired, and it was only comfortable to go back and lie down.

Because they wanted to go back quickly, after signaling to the He family's parents in the distance, they chose another shortcut with fewer people and went down the mountain.

Not long after I got home, I heard news from outside that there were too many people on Jingshan, and some people fought for a place to rest, resulting in a stampede!
It seems to be quite serious. The casualties are being counted, and Jingshan Mountain has been temporarily closed. Jing Zhaoyin has sent people to evacuate the crowd in time to treat the wounded.

Xu Ruyun was so frightened that her face turned pale. If they came back a moment later, wouldn't they be trapped on the mountain now, or injured?
He Shaoguang was worried about whether the He family on the mountain would be trampled on.She hurriedly called Zhijun and asked her to go back to the mansion to take a look in person, and to return to her life after seeing that her family was safe.

After Zhijun left, He Shaoguang waited for a long time, and finally came back two hours later, his head was sweating and his clothes were a little wrinkled.

"What's wrong with you?" He Shaoguang didn't understand how she made herself like this when she went to He's mansion. Didn't she say that the place where she stepped on was Jingshan?

Although Zhijun was embarrassed, he still smiled when he saw He Shaoguang: "Miss, don't worry, the master and wife are fine, and the young master is fine. The servant girl went to the He Mansion, but the concierge said that the master and wife have not come back yet, and the servant girl is also worried. , I went to wait at the foot of Jingshan Mountain. Other places were locked there, leaving a few exits.
Before the servant could get close, he saw the young master from a distance.The young master cooperated with Jing Zhaoyin to evacuate the crowd, and the old lady rested in a place with few people.I heard that many of Jing Zhaoyin's tricks were watched by the young master's servants, which is very majestic. "

The words were full of pride, He Shaoguang heard her say this, and there was a picture in front of him.

Big brother is really reliable and really reliable.

He Shaoguang smiled, she was relieved that her family was fine.

Seeing the urgency of the situation, He Changfeng stood up without thinking too much.He is young, good-minded, and cautious.Jing Zhaoyin is also one who will listen to the suggestions below, so the two cooperated and the evacuation went very smoothly.

As for the fact that He Changfeng earned credit for himself later, and even made his name in front of the emperor, this was something no one in the He family thought of at the moment.
