Chapter 36 Birthday Blessing (5)

"What do you call it?" Princess Jiang Jun was listening attentively to the two talking, she gently pushed Mrs. Xu's hand away and said casually: "Then I'll be rude, don't worry, Sister Tian is fine."

"No matter what, she is still a child! That... how could she have good intentions!" Mrs. Xu looked at Li Tian worriedly and said anxiously. Princess Jiang looked back at Mrs. Xu helplessly and said: "This room is full of people, she What can I do with her? Besides, don’t worry, I’ll be fine if I say it’s okay, just listen to your show.” After saying this, she no longer cared about Mrs. Xu, her eyes seemed to be looking at the stage, but her attention was focused on the corners of her eyes. He only stared at the two of them and Mrs. Sun, and only listened attentively to what Princess Ningguo and Li Tian were talking about.

"Let me tell you, you can't just listen to the shopkeeper's orders on this matter." Princess Ningguo's tone was very concerned. Li Tian looked up at her, his eyes seemed to be full of trust and said: "When grandma is here, As I said, this business depends entirely on the shopkeeper, so you must trust the shopkeeper."

"That's true." Princess Ningguo changed the tone, and then asked: "The ten thousand silver in Qianchunfang is the net profit of last year? It seems a little less."

"Well, there were more than 2 taels the year before last, and it was also the year before last. Shopkeeper Zhao said that the sales of wine in the second half of this year were not good, and the profit was a little bit thinner." The princess replied, Princess Ningguo frowned and wanted to ask again, Mrs. Sun leaned forward slightly, and interrupted the two of them with a smile on her face: "You two don't watch the show, what are you talking about?" He smiled and replied: "The eldest princess is teaching me general affairs."

"Good boy, you are the only one who is willing to listen to her nagging." Mrs. Sun praised Li Tian, ​​then turned to look at the eldest princess and laughed, "Why are you like me, wanting to give pointers when you see everyone? As soon as you get old, you can be a teacher? Let me tell you, Eleventh sister showed me a painting before, and I taught her. When I saw your painting, I knew that you used a bald pen. Eleventh sister is a Children who know how to be frugal can’t go too far, can they? This money can’t be used when it’s bald.”

The eldest princess looked at Mrs. Sun with a smile on her face, but a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. Mrs. Sun sighed while laughing and continued: "Poor Eleventh Sister is honest, how dare you refute me, just listen like that." , Elder Twelfth Sister has a straightforward temper, so she pulled me and muttered, the ancestors have wronged people again, it is not because the pen is bald, it is a kind of brushwork for landscape painting, what is it called chapped! Look, I still make people more Send a few boxes of pens to Eleventh Sister!"

The whole room laughed out loud at what she said, and the eldest princess felt annoyed in her heart. Was she laughing at her as a layman teaching an expert?Although he was annoyed in his heart, his face was still full of smiles. He looked at Mrs. Sun and said, "Even the sisters in your house have painted landscape paintings? The fourth brother loves landscape paintings, and all of your family fell in love with this? I remember The king of Dongyang County used to love fine brushwork flowers and birds, but now he has changed his temper with his fourth brother and fell in love with splashed ink landscapes."

"That's not it." Mrs. Sun didn't seem to understand the sarcasm in Princess Dachang's words, and replied with a cheerful smile: "I told him that too, do you know what he said? He said that the fourth brother is so good My child, who doesn’t love it? Speaking of the fourth brother, this child is really nice. I remember when he was seven or eight years old, he once ate a mouthful of oriole bream somewhere, and fell in love with it. If he wanted to eat it, the imperial concubine asked him to take him to see how the oriole bream was made. When he saw that the small pot of oriole bream was going to kill so many orioles, he couldn't bear to eat it anymore. An eight-year-old child, it can be seen that this benevolence and kindness is born."

"That's not it!" There was a flattering voice all around: "Speaking of this splashed ink landscape, the more refined it is, the more elegant it is, the more refined it is, the more flavorful it is. It's really majestic and elegant. It's no wonder Fourth Master likes it. It's so natural and interesting." , it really makes people love it more and more!"

"Speaking of this elegant and natural." Princess Jiang raised her voice, and answered with a smile: "Yaoyao and sister Tian thought of a new trick for the song of Bijian Liuquan, and it sounds so elegant to me. And natural taste."

"Really? Why don't you hurry up and play it for us." Mrs. Sun laughed, and Princess Jiang hurriedly stood up and looked around: "Why don't they play it in the pavilion by the lake? The sound of water sounds better."

"This is the best. Stop this play for now. You guys, go and let me listen carefully. I like the song Bijian Liuquan the most." Mrs. Sun gestured to Li Tian and Lin Ke with a smile on her face. Waiting for someone, the three had no choice but to stand up, Lin Ke picked up Jiang Shan, and the four of them went to the pavilion by the lake to play their self-created Bijian Liuquan.

In a spacious hall on the other side of the Prince's Mansion in Dongyang County, Lin Yangfeng stood absent-mindedly beside Jiang Hong, unconsciously turning the folding fan in his hand, keeping his eyes on the side of the fourth prince, frowning, racking his brains to figure out How can I get together to thank Li Tian for saving his life.

Let alone appear natural and not allow others to hear, even if all these are ignored, there is no way to talk to each other!What can be done about this?You can't go straight up and just say it, if that's the case, the Fourth Prince will take him as a madman?Lin Yangfeng was so distressed and helpless that his head ached from thinking about it, but there was nothing he could do. This was nothing to do!No one can think of a way!How can I explain to my mother when I go back?If it's because he can't get along with the fourth prince... He wouldn't want to say it even if he was killed. Lin Yangfeng shook the folding fan restlessly, closed and shook it again, and the tormenting fan crackled .

Jiang Hong looked at Lin Yangfeng strangely, seeing that the bones and skin of the folding fan were about to be torn apart, he couldn't help it, leaned over and gently poked him and asked, "Cousin, what's wrong with you? "

"Oh! It's okay!" Lin Yangfeng closed the folding fan with a 'slap', and shook it away again with a 'wow', turned to look at Jiang Hong, and couldn't help complaining: "It's your aunt, alas, it's not your aunt , It's not a big deal, it's just that there is something important to say to Fourth Master quietly, but look, Fourth Master is so busy, right? How can he be free? He's not free, how can I tell him?" Jiang Hong Glancing at the fourth prince who was sitting idly, the brows trembled a few times, he pressed a folding fan to his forehead, slightly lowered his head and forced back his smile, his cousin couldn't catch the fourth prince's eyes at all, but he wanted to save face , Jiang Hong smiled back, coughed lightly, turned to look at the fourth prince, then at his serious cousin Lin Yangfeng, thought for a while and said: "Why don't I write the first word, if I can get a Caitouer, maybe you can spare fourth master for a while."

"Huh? That's a good idea! Fourth master loves talents the most, if you can win the lottery... Well, forget it, how can this lottery be so easy?"

"It's not too much to try, even if you don't get a lot of money, it's not bad." Jiang Hong waved the folding fan leisurely, revealing a strong confidence, Lin Yangfeng nodded repeatedly, and beckoned the servant to ask for a paper seal Son, Jiang Hong took it and tore it open, looked at it carefully, twisted the note and went out of the window for a while, then turned around and walked to the long bench covered with paper and pens, and the pen was like a snake, slowly filling in the sound of the drawing. When he came out with a song, he picked it up and blew on the ink marks, and before it was dry, he handed it to the young boy who was waiting beside him.

The little servant rushed to the fourth prince and the others with his hands in his hands, and carefully spread them on the tables. The fourth prince glanced at it, straightened his upper body quickly, and gestured to pass it over while admiring: "What a stroke! It's rare! It's really rare!" As he said, he took the paper and held it up, read it carefully, and then read it again, and repeatedly praised: "Good words and sentences! What a handwriting! Which gentleman wrote this ?”

Jiang Hong wrote the good words and handed them to the boy, and walked back leisurely, shaking his folding fan, wanting to chat with Lin Yangfeng to show that he didn't care, but he saw Lin Yangfeng staring at the boy with straight eyes and a nervous expression on his face , staring at him spreading the paper full of words on the table, staring at the fourth prince and the others, only the tense Adam's apple kept rolling.Jiang Hong was so angry that he rolled his eyes several times, so he could only turn around and face the window, concentrating on admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window.

The servant hurried over, and respectfully invited Jiang Hong to go over. Jiang Hong pulled Lin Yangfeng who was nervous and pale, walked through the hall, stopped two or three steps away from the fourth prince, bowed gracefully and said: "Student Jiang Hong and Jiang Yan came back and met Fourth Master."

"Seeing that you are only seventeen or eighteen years old, you already have words at such a young age?" The fourth prince looked up and down Jiang Hong with eyes full of admiration, and smiled slightly in surprise. The elder gave me the letter." The surprise on the fourth prince's face became stronger: "I won the exam the year before last? It's really rare! I don't know such a young talent."

"Fourth master has won the award. How dare the students call them "talented scholars". When the students were in their hometown in Huaiyang, they often heard people say that the capital's literary style is very prosperous and talented people come out in large numbers. Today, thanks to the blessing of my cousin, I realized that what I said was true. Aside from other things, there are so many talents in this hall that the students are already dazzled." Jiang Hong said as he rushed around and made a group bow, Lin Yangfeng saw Jiang Hong mentioning him, and his reaction at the critical moment was not bad. Hurry up, hurried forward and bowed to the fourth prince to salute, and respectfully reported his name.

The fourth prince raised his hand to Lin Yangfeng with a smile, indicating that he doesn't need to be polite, then turned his head to look at Jiang Hong and continued, "Are you from Huaiyang? Are you from the same family as Shangshu Jiang?"

"Yes, Jiang Shangshu is the uncle of the student clan."

"Has five clothes been released?"

"Still within the third server."

A light flashed in the eyes of the fourth prince, and the smile on his face became thicker. He waved his hand and said: "No wonder you are so outstanding at such a young age. It really is because of the profound background and talents of the scholarly family. Jiang Shangshu's calligraphy is the most favorite of my father. We Brothers have all come across Jiang Shangshu's handwriting when they were young, judging by your handwriting, you have already established a strong character, and you will surely excel in the future, come, sit down and talk."
