MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 284 considerate
Gu Jingyun put down the teacup and turned to Qin Lao Liu and said, "Uncle Liu, when I was in Qiongzhou, my uncle always thought of you. This time I am going back to Runing, but my uncle and aunt have prepared a lot of things for me to bring to you. I will finish the meal later. , your nephew and nephew's daughter-in-law will bring it to you in person?"
"What gift can you give me when your uncle just came back from Qiongzhou?" Qin Laoliu pouted childishly: "Don't take anything to prevaricate me."
"It's not really valuable, it's all local specialties in the capital, including smoked ham, Shangji's pork jerky, and some ink ingots from Lingsheng Street. If Uncle Six doesn't like it, I can keep it myself. "
Qin Lao Liu was stunned, his eyes were reddish, but he slapped him with his hand and said lightly annoyed: "Stinky boy, even knowing that those are my favorite things and robbing me, your uncle is not as naughty as you are."
Qin Laoliu grew up in the capital. Those are the things he is most familiar with and loves most. Although they are not precious, they are full of memories.
Although Qin Laoliu is the same generation as Qin Xinfang, he is older than Qin Xinfang's father Qin Wentian. He and Qin Wentian grew up together, and their uncle and nephew have a very good relationship, so Qin Wentian went to Songshan Academy to become a mountain. After a long time, he went to Songshan Academy to be a teacher. When Qin Wentian turned to Qingxi Academy to be the mountain chief, he resigned from Songshan Academy and ran to Qingxi Academy.
Although Qin Xinfang was his cousin, he watched him born and grew up, and he was in love with his father and son.
Qin Laoliu's son belongs to the group of people who sent things to Qiongzhou after Qin Xinfang was exiled.
Now his son is still an official in a foreign country, and there are only two grandsons and their daughter-in-law at home, um, and a series of great-grandchildren that he can't even name.
The Qin family, apart from the direct branch, the side branches are particularly strong in reproduction, otherwise the population of a large county would not be born. This is still the result of continuous division of clans, and the clan radiates all over the country, otherwise Runing will not be affected by Qin. Occupy?
But what really shocked Li Baolu was the control of the Qin family's direct branch over the collateral branch. In any family, there will be a phenomenon in which the lateral branch develops too quickly and suppresses the direct branch, but it seems that such a situation does not occur in the Qin family.
Qin Xinfang's people didn't come back, they just asked Gu Jingyun to stop at the main house, and Qin's people obediently gave up the main house and the fields, as if there was no contradiction at all.
Scanning the crowded crowd, Li Baolu once again sighed that there were a large number of people on the side.
The clan feast began, and the dishes were served one after another. Gu Jingyun used a bowl to fill half a bowl of soup for Qin Lao Liu, "Uncle Liu warm up with a sip of soup."
Qin Laoliu's grandson immediately stepped forward to take it, and half bent over to feed him, not a drop of soup fell on the front of his clothes, it seems that he often does this kind of thing.
Even someone as critical as Gu Jingyun couldn't help but be convinced, it seems that these two brothers served their grandfather a lot.
Gu Jingyun then turned to the next chapter to talk to Yingzhi County, and sometimes pulled Qin Chengyu and several cousins into the conversation circle. Most of them talked about Runing's customs and the situation of spring farming and autumn harvest, and occasionally talked about the Book of Songs and Buddhism. Said, Gu Jingyun took care of everyone, would not leave anyone out in the cold, and also got the news he wanted to know.
On the other hand, this guy didn't pay attention to what he said, with a look of listening on his face, but he picked up a bowl in his hand and picked the dishes on the table. He picked two or three items and handed them to the side and back. Li Baolu took the small bowl. Eat slowly, and then go back after eating, Gu Jingyun will choose for her again...
The two elder nephews who stood behind the two and witnessed everything: …
The Jiang Shi, who had been paying attention here, also noticed Gu Jingyun's small movements. She was shocked and couldn't help but look up at Li Baolu with the help of the person in front of her.
The fair and ruddy face still has baby fat on her face, so she looks chubby. At first glance, she looks like a very healthy little girl, but she also looks very childish, with a beautiful appearance and a slender figure, even in the Qin family who is used to being beautiful. It can also be ranked in the upper middle, let alone the outside.
Her beauty can be regarded as first-class, but that's all. It is impossible to say how amazing she is. In contrast, the cool and handsome Gu Jingyun is even more outstanding. The two stand together, and they feel Li Baolu only from the outside. Not worthy of Gu Jingyun.
Her family background is not obvious, so why does Gu Jingyun value her so much?
To be so considerate that she felt bad for her unused dinner in front of all the adults, choosing dishes for her in front of the adults, and serving her dinner?
Not to mention in public, this kind of behavior seems too intimate and solemn even in private.
Jiang shi stared at Li Baolu for a long time, but did not find that she had anything worthy of Gu Jingyun's love. She was a little disappointed in her heart. Just as she was about to look away, she saw Gu Jingyun pouring a cup of boiled water from his teacup and handing it back, she was fine. Her eyesight allowed her to see that Li Baolu just took a sip and returned it, while Gu Jingyun continued to hand the teacup back. She saw Li Baolu pouting slightly, as if she had stabbed Gu Jingyun's waist twice with her fingers.
Gu Jingyun sat as still as a mountain, and the teacup was still handed back. Li Baolu had no choice but to take the teacup and drank the boiled water in it.
Gu Jingyun was satisfied and continued to pick dishes for her.
The movements of the two were obscure, and Gu Jingyun was talking to people from time to time, so no one noticed their small movements except for the Jiang family who deliberately stared at them. Even the two grandsons standing behind Qin Laoliu didn't notice it. point.
Jiang's heart raised Li Baolu's status a little bit, it seemed that she had to be more polite to this cousin.
Li Baolu looked up suspiciously. When she saw that no one noticed her, she lowered her head and continued to eliminate the food in the bowl. Well, Qin's family has accumulated hundreds of years of farming and reading. The chef's dishes are delicious, I don't know them Mind if she takes one or two away.
Jiang's youngest daughter-in-law, Dong, has not been in the house for three years, and this is the first time she has participated in such a big family banquet. She is very nervous.
She was in charge of the drinks and snacks for tonight's clan banquet. Seeing that the girl who was responsible for serving drinks and drinks on Gu Jingyun's table was walking past her with a tray, she had a wrong feeling, so she hurriedly stopped people and opened the teapot to see what was inside. It was boiled water, her face changed slightly, her eyes shot at the girl like a knife, and she lowered her voice and said angrily: "Cousin is a distinguished guest, who gave you the courage to use boiled water to fool people?"
The girl was so startled that she almost burst into tears, "Grandma Fifth, spare your life, this is what the wife ordered, saying that Mr. Biao doesn't need to serve tea at the table, only boiled water, and wait for two quarters of an hour after the meal is taken out to serve tea. The slaves and servants are all obedient and do not dare to be self-reliant."
Dong shi frowned, obviously not believing what the girl said, but this girl is a second-class girl, she would never dare to lie in front of her.
Dong Shi was a little unable to make up his mind, when she saw her mother-in-law approaching with a smile, she hurried up to meet her, and whispered: "Mother, I just saw the girl bring tea to my cousin, and the teapot is actually boiled water, this, this... "
Jiang shi raised his hand to interrupt her and said, "This is what I arranged. Your cousin is weak and has his own way of maintaining health. They don't drink tea during or after meals, so the teapots are filled with boiled water. You have to wait for two quarters of an hour after the meal to serve tea, you have to remember this rule, and the descendants will be treated like this when they return to their hometowns.”
Mr. Dong was speechless, co-authoring this is the rule of the entire descendant?
It's a strange rule, but she didn't dare to say more. After she agreed, she waved her hand to send water to Gu Jingyun.
Gu Jingyun always eats only 70% full. Even if Qin's food is very appetizing, he only eats two more bites before putting down his chopsticks, and then concentrates on feeding his wife behind him.
The two eldest nephews stood in the back and watched silently as their uncle continued to bring food and water to the aunt behind them, and the stomach that was not hungry actually felt hungry.
However, the aunt's appetite is very large, the two brothers counted silently, and found that she ate more than three times as much as the cousin's. Although they knew it was impolite, the two brothers couldn't help but secretly glanced at her belly. It doesn't go up, it's not scientific at all.
Li Baolu was full of food and drink, and wiped the corners of her mouth very gently with a handkerchief, then got up and patted the shoulders of her two elder nephews: "You guys go down to eat, I'll serve Uncle Six."
The two of them were surprised, and when they were about to refuse, they saw their uncle also turned his head and smiled: "You go, there are me and your aunt here."
The two brothers have a look of embarrassment on their faces. Although you are of high seniority, you are young, and my son is five or six years younger than you. Do you have the nerve to speak to us in such a childish tone?
The two of them had a "cousin, don't make trouble" expressions on their faces, and they were about to refuse, but their grandfather turned around and nodded and said, "Okay, okay, you go, there is your cousin here."
The two brothers can't even think about walking now. It's just that my grandfather's eyes are not very good, and his ears are very sensitive.
The two retreated silently.
Li Baolu stood behind Qin Laoliu and picked something soft and warm to feed him. She is a doctor and has a very careful heart. Although some of her hand-born students are not as thoughtful as the two elder nephews, she is more considerate. Enjoyed the meal.
When he was happy and left the stage early, he took Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu away, and said in front of Qin Chengyu and a group of young and old people: "They are still children, but they don't like to play with you, you can play by yourself, I will take the children away. Now, you can't let you teach people bad."
Qin Chengyu is silent, Sixth Uncle, we are having a family banquet tonight, not a wine banquet outside. There is not even a lot of wine, there is no drama troupe, and there is no entertainment program such as the chaperone and dancer. How can we teach bad children?
But everyone knows that Qin Laoliu has been confused since his 70th birthday, sometimes forgetful, and sometimes making trouble like a child. No one dared to refute him. Yingzhi County and the registrar are outsiders.
Qin Laoliu wanted to take Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu away, Gu Jingyun could only apologize to his cousins in a group, and then helped Qin Laoliu go out and get on the car to the ancestral house of the sixth room.
After getting into the car, Qin Lao Liu's cloudy eyes stared at Gu Jingyun's face, and then stared at Li Baolu's face, before nodding his head in relief, "Okay, your face is ruddy, and your face is not tired, you can look at the same thing. Your uncles and aunts are much stronger, maybe you can really give birth to a few more babies, so that the direct descendants are no longer alone."
The two eldest nephews sitting on the carriage were horrified and stared at the coachman like electricity. Although the coachman did not understand the meaning of the old man's words, he also knew that it was inappropriate, otherwise the two masters would not stare like this. he.
His back was cold, his face was pale, and he almost fell out of the car. After being stiff for a long time, he trembled in a low voice: "Master, second master, the small family rents six-bedroom fields, the harvest is limited, I don't know the government. The boss has to be the next person, the younger sons and daughters are all grown up, and they can't do anything else, but they can do some rough work."
Qin was very satisfied, the sensible expression on his face was put away, and he said with a smile: "Tomorrow, you bring me over to see, and I will ask the eldest grandma to arrange an errand for them."
The driver nodded again and again, "Yes, yes." Hearing the sound from the carriage, he wanted to plug his ears.
Qin Da and Qin Er couldn't help but look at each other, both of them were a little helpless, but they quickly became firm.
That's all, since my grandfather wanted to repay the kindness of his descendants, they tried their best to do it.
