Chapter 12 Calligraphy and Painting Pavilion
It's so simple! Li Si couldn't say anything about Li Congwen, but Zhao Guangliang, who always said anything, didn't care so much, just rolled his eyes.
"Come on! What's so pitiful about Yao Bijing? She doesn't lack food or clothing! Humph!" To be honest, although Yao Bijing is very beautiful, Zhao Guangliang really doesn't like Yao Bijing very much. He always thinks she is too fake and pretends very much.
If he hadn't seen his brother thinking about her every day, he wouldn't have asked her! His mother almost thought he was interested in Yao Bijing!
"But……"
"Don't let it go, they are heading to the calligraphy and painting pavilion. Do we want to follow us?" Li Si reminded several people.
"Of course I went there. The calligraphy and painting pavilion is a place to view the peach blossom forest! We can enjoy the flowers and drink tea there. Look! I brought all the good tea my father had hidden!" Li Guangliang signaled them to see the package held by the book boy following behind them.
No wonder! Li Si noticed the package in Shutong’s hand just now at the door, and wondered how to see peach blossoms, and he was holding such a big package.
The calligraphy and painting pavilion is located deep in the Peach Blossom Forest. It is surrounded by many small pavilions. The scenery is magnificent and is the favorite place for many scholars and unmarried men and women. Due to the delay on the road, when several people arrived at the calligraphy and painting pavilion, the calligraphy and painting pavilion was already crowded. Several people walked around several places but couldn't find an empty pavilion.
"Hey! I'm so tired, I shouldn't have come today. Why are there so many people? Are all the people from Taohua County here?"
Not only Zhao Guangliang was so tired that he was breathing heavily, but the others were no exception. On the contrary, Li Si did not feel tired at all. He was just led by Zhao Guangliang and was a little confused.
"Brother Guangliang is exaggerating! There are more than so many people in Taohua County?" Wang Weisheng, who was a little silent along the way, leaning under a peach blossom tree, reflecting his already handsome figure even more elegant. There are already many girls watching nearby.
Of course, among the few people, except Bai Fengyang is not good-looking, the others are all handsome young men. Even Li Si, who is only 7 years old, is very good-looking, especially Wang Weisheng, who is good-looking.
Not to mention that a few people except Cheng Zhuo and Li Si dressed in a relatively ordinary manner, the others could tell that they were rich people at a glance. Therefore, many of them noticed them in the calligraphy and painting pavilion.
Maybe I saw their embarrassment, and after a moment, a servant came over.
The servant looked about fifteen or sixteen years old and bowed to the few people: "Young Master Zhao, our wife is welcome."
After saying that, he also signaled to them the location of their wife, and saw a lady waved to him in a pavilion thirty steps away.
Several people looked at each other and finally looked at Zhao Guangliang. Generally, everyone listened to Zhao Guangliang's ideas in this situation, after all, he also organized this time.
"Since someone invites you, let's go over and visit! Maybe it's the wife we know?" If the situation is wrong, just leave later. Zhao Guangliang signaled everyone with his eyes.
Everyone understood, so the few people followed the servant to the pavilion. Each pavilion on the calligraphy and painting pavilion had a small stone table, which was round and not big, and there were only four people sitting in total.
At this time, three people had already sat in the pavilion, and there were several servants standing behind him. Not to mention that there was only one seat, even the standing place was very narrow.
The faces of the few people suddenly turned dark. What's the situation? I invited them to come, but I didn't even have a seat. Where did I let them sit?
After all, the few people are young and inevitably feel a little angry. How can they bear this situation when they see it?
"Madam Ding, is this your way of hospitality?" Zhao Guangliang really knew the wife who invited them. She had visited their house and was considered a friend of his mother.
Mrs. Ding’s boudoir is named Ni Fanghua. Although she is the same age as Zhao Guangliang’s mother, she looks so small and delicate, and looks weak. Especially when she hears Zhao Guangliang say this, her face is even more like crying.
"Young Master Zhao, I'm very sorry, I'm not careful in my family." Then he scolded the two teenage girls beside her, "Wanwan, Shishi quickly get up, there is no wink at all, so he won't let the young masters sit down."
Mrs. Ding gave birth to a son herself, who was seven years old at the same time as Li Si. The two girls were the concubines of the Ding family, one of whom was thirteen and the other was fifteen this year. It was when she was talking about the marriage that Mrs. Ding didn't want others to say that she was not kind, so she brought the two to see each other today.
The two little girls were timid. When they heard Mrs. Ding say this, they quickly got up from their seats and stood behind Mrs. Ding.
Li Si stood at the end of the few people, a little speechless, and was a little grateful that he had dressed as a man. In this era, it is still more free to be a man.
"No need for Mrs. Ding, we have five people in total. This position is not enough to sit, so it's not trouble. We brothers go to other places to see the scenery and don't bother with the wife." Zhao Guangliang was well educated after all. In addition to the atmosphere at the beginning, his mood has recovered now.
So when he saw the pitiful look of the two little girls, he felt a little reluctant, and he didn't like Mr. Ding's style, so he directly asked to leave.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Ding's face looked ugly for a moment, but she smiled softly: "It's because I'm not thinking well, let's do it! I'll give this pavilion to you. The person we made an appointment has arrived. Let's just go to the pavilion there."
Although Mrs. Ding was so angry that Zhao Guangliang didn't give her face, she thought that her business had to rely on the Zhao family, so she could only smile. Fortunately, she brought two concubines to a blind date today, and that family happened to be not far away, so she gave herself a step.
Then before the few people refused, they stood up and left with the people. The few people looked at each other speechlessly and couldn't understand. However, they had already given up the pavilion, but the few people were not ungrateful. They thanked Mrs. Ding and sat down.
But even so, there are only four seats in the pavilion. Not only did Zhao Guangliang bring, but there were five people. In the end, only seven years old Li Si took the initiative to stand up.
"Let me stand! I'm not interested in drinking tea anyway." He was also afraid that a few people would be embarrassed and smiled, "And I'm not tired yet. If I'm tired, you can just let me sit for a while."
"Okay, they are all their own brothers. We will take turns to sit in a row. Come on, don't waste time, come and taste the good tea I brought." As soon as Zhao Guangliang sat down, he couldn't wait to let someone take out the tea.
Whether before or after rebirth, Li Si didn't like to drink tea. He always only drank boiled water, and it had to be warm. After rebirth, he was disliked by his aunt because of this problem.
Li Si looked at the few people drinking, and turned his head out of the pavilion without any interest.
