Enter the Room

"Open the ancestral hall?!" In the Yinyu Hall, Yuan Yunzhong looked at Zheng Quan with some surprise.

Zheng Quan said "hmm" and while instructing the servants to lift the heavy boxes and cages to the corner of the hall, he said: "These are all gifts brought back to you by our eldest lady from Nanjing."

As he spoke, he also took out a gift list and gave it to Yuan Yunzhong: "Everything is here."

Yuan Yunzhong looked at the bright red and gold list and felt it was a bit dazzling.

He thought Song Jiyun would come in person.

What's more, gift lists are only used when giving gifts. Who in the family cares about these?

He was too lazy to accept the gift order.

When Shao Qing saw it, he rushed out from the side. Not only did he accept the gift list, he also patted Zheng Quan happily on the shoulder and said: "Hey, Old Zheng, when you go back, thank Boss Song for our young master, and say we My young master will invite her to dinner another day."

After saying that, he was shocked to realize that he had been following Song Jiyun these days and was used to being carefree, and he had forgotten how picky their young master was. He made random promises without the young master's consent. The young master didn't say it openly, but he would definitely deal with him afterwards.

But you can't blame him. Who made him recognize one of the boxes?

What can be packed in that box is a bamboo dragonfly.

And it’s not just an ordinary bamboo dragonfly.

The bamboo dragonfly is two feet long and half a foot wide. I don't know what it is made of. Use two wooden sticks to tie their special cowhide rope around the wooden pomelo, and throw the bamboo dragonfly into the air. The bamboo dragonfly will hover in the air, flying around buzzing, and not falling for two quarters of an hour. .

The crowds in Nanjing city blocked the Qinhuai River and made it impossible to walk.

Selling each for two thousand taels of silver!

At that time, Boss Song also thought it was quite interesting and bought two of them. He thought he bought it for her two younger sisters, but unexpectedly he gave one to the young master.

He wants to play too!

When Shao Qing thought of this, he stiffened his neck and glanced at Yuan Yunzhong.

Their young master is not angry at all!

He also personally sent Zheng Quan out! !

Zheng Quan was also shocked.

He could see how arrogant Yuan Yunzhong was these days.

As soon as he came out of the moon gate of the courtyard, he stopped and said stumblingly, "Sir, please stay!"

Yuan Yunzhong had no intention of continuing to send him off, but he did not turn back. Instead, he told him one thing: "You let the Song clan know overnight that the eldest lady of your family has made a lot of money in Nanjing."

Zheng Quan was puzzled and said: "My boss once said that we should keep silent to make a fortune."

The implication was that he couldn't do this, he had to listen to Song Jiyun.

Yuan Yunzhong suffered from chest tightness.

If not to make the news more credible, why would he use Zheng Quan?

"If you want your eldest lady to get what she wants tomorrow, just follow my words." Yuan Yunzhong said forcefully.

The more Zheng Quan came into contact with Yuan Yunzhong, the more he became afraid of him.

He didn't dare to refute Yuan Yunzhong, but he could tell Song Jiyun and let Song Jiyun decide what to do!

"Okay!" Zheng Quan nodded obediently and came out of Yinyu Hall and went straight to Song Jiyun. Knowing that Song Jiyun had not returned from Qian's place, he diverted to Qian's place.

From a distance, he heard a burst of laughter in Qian's yard.

It was Song Jiyun who was telling Song Jiyu and Song Jixue how to play with bamboo dragonflies.

The eaves of the main house were filled with maids and women watching the fun.

Song Jiyun stood in the courtyard holding a hand stove, which was rare, and loudly shouted to Song Jiuxue with a rosy face: "Over there, over there!"

Song Jiuxue has already gone crazy playing. She kept chasing the bamboo dragonfly and shouted loudly to Song Jiuyun: "It's so fun! Sister, I want to take it with me tomorrow so that my brother-in-law can play with it for a while!"

Song Jiyun waited for Song Jixue to hold the fallen bamboo dragonfly in his arms and ran over. Then he took the handkerchief from the mother-in-law's hand and wiped the sweat on her head, saying: "It's too late today, be careful of the bamboo dragonfly flying." If you go out, you won’t be able to fly back. Let’s play again tomorrow.”

Song Jixue nodded obediently, and Song Jiyu led him down to wash up.

Song Jiyun and Zheng Quan went to the nearby tea room.

"Why are you here so late?" She made Zheng Quan a cup of tea and put her hand on the smoke cage to light a fire.

The winter in Jiangbei is also wet and cold. No matter how many years have passed, she still misses the winter with heating.

Zheng Quan told Song Jiyun what Yuan Yunzhong said.

Song Jiyun was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile.

"Just do as he says!" She said softly, "He is also doing it for my own good!"

Zheng Quan was even more confused.

But Song Jiyun didn't explain, and he didn't ask any more questions and went to arrange the matter.

Song Jiyun leaned on the smoke cage, and after a while, he laughed out loud.

Song Jiuxue, who had been cleaned up by the maid and mother-in-law, poked her head out of the door: "Sister, what are you laughing at?"

In her memory, her sister had never smiled like this.

It is like the peach blossoms that bloom in March, with the tenderness and beauty of spring flowers, and the brightness and sunshine of spring.

Her mother used to smile like this when her father went out.

She asked her mother why she was smiling, and her mother told her that she was thinking about her father.

"Sister, are you thinking about your brother-in-law too?" She ran in and took Song Jiyun's hand.

Song Jiyun gently touched her head.

The winter nights are long, and the orange peels placed next to the incense burner exude a fresh fragrance. The longans are roasted until they explode with a "bang", revealing the crystal clear flesh inside.

Before dawn, the news that the Song family was going to open an ancestral hall spread throughout the streets and alleys of Jingdezhen.

By the time the Song clan members opened the door of the auditorium, cleaned the yard, wiped the tables and chairs, and prepared refreshments, the walls and trees outside the ancestral hall were already full of people.

Everyone is waiting to see the excitement of the Song family.

And all the people from the Song family who were qualified came.

The three large open halls and two courtyards were full of crows and people.

They were discussing the opening of the ancestral hall in twos and threes. Their voices were not loud, but they were talking about each other, making it as noisy as a vegetable market.

Song Jiyun was quite surprised to see such a scene when he entered.

She thought that the Song family would only invite clan elders and highly respected elders.

The person who accompanied her in was the son of Master Song Shiyi. Song Jiyun wanted to call him "Uncle Xi". He whispered: "Everyone knows, and they are all coming!"

In other words, it couldn't be stopped.

I wonder if it has anything to do with what Yuan Yunzhong asked Zheng Quan to say yesterday?

She walked calmly across the courtyard and into the lobby.

The place she passed was quiet.

The place behind her left would be filled with even more enthusiastic voices than before.

The thin sunlight in winter shines through the patio and onto the bluestone slabs.

When the clan elders saw her, several of them couldn't help but stood up. When they saw that some people were sitting still, some looked embarrassed and hurriedly sat down again, while some disagreed and took the initiative to say hello to Song Jiyun: " Boss Song is here, sit down quickly! Sit down quickly!"

Song Sanliang's mother and son, who were standing nearby waiting for Song Jiyun to arrive, suddenly turned dark.

These people all received heavy gifts from them.

Song Jiyun smiled slightly, pretending not to notice at all, and was chatting with everyone in the hall.

Hey guys, due to emergencies, I don’t know if we can add more updates tonight, so please don’t wait...
