Chapter 136: Meeting in the Plum Garden (Addition)
He Linwan smiled "poof", the sad feeling of revisiting the old place just now dissipated a lot, and turned back to ask Li Yu: "I wanted to ask a long time ago, where did you get this living treasure?"
Li Yu glanced at Gao Feng and said coldly: "He is my master's only son, and he entered the palace through the door. ”
Gao Feng was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Yu who dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak.
Their carriage had just stopped after entering through the side gate of the plum garden, and the garden was very empty, and there was no popularity, but He Linwan felt kind, and she found that although the house had changed hands twice, not a single grass or tree in it had changed.
Entering through the cave door and into the eaves, the pots of ordinary Ruihua that she had planted for medicinal purposes had passed their flowering period, but they were still in the distance and had not been replaced. The word "Qingyin" on the door of the moon cave not far away was mentioned by her own hand. After coming out of the eaves, you can see a pond, which she dug up and wanted to plant water lilies, but then changed her mind and left it there for the time being, so it is not very beautiful to look at it from the outside, and it is still the same here.
Li Yu has been by He Linwan's side, and when He Linwan stopped, he also stopped, He Linwan didn't make a sound, and he didn't speak.
He Linwan didn't walk quickly, not even like she wanted to see Xiao Mu urgently, and she stayed in the garden for a long time.
Li Yu said suddenly: "Go in, I promise that he is the person you are looking for." ”
At this time, Mama Chun walked out quickly with a maid, and when she saw Li Yu and He Linwan, Mama Chun's face immediately bloomed.
Li Yu stretched out his hand to support Mama Chun, who was saluting. said to He Linwan: "This is Mama Chun, who has taken care of me since I was a child, you have seen it." ”
He Linwan knew that Li Yu introduced this, which showed that Mama Chun had a high status in his heart, so when Mama Chun saluted He Linwan, He Linwan also supported her and returned her half a salute.
"Where's the little wood?" Li Yu asked Mama Chun.
Xiaoman, the maid on the side, replied first: "Back to the world, Mu Gongzi is practicing calligraphy in the Surprise Pavilion." ”
Li Yu glanced at Xiao Man at this time.
Xiao Man has a smile on his face, his head is slightly bowed, his posture is graceful, and his eyebrows and eyes are charming. People can't help but want to look at her twice. It's a pity that if she hadn't grabbed the words just now, Li Yu wouldn't have noticed such a person at all.
Xiao Man immediately seized the opportunity and said: "Shizi, the slave is Xiao Man, do you remember." ”
Mama Chun frowned. I just wanted Xiaoman to step down. Gao Feng behind Li Yu stepped forward. reminded in a voice that was not too small and just enough for everyone to hear: "Lord Shizi, she used to serve in your yard for two years, and she came out of your study late one night wearing ...... Cough. was not dignified enough, and was later sent to the plum garden. ”
Li Yu looked at Gao Feng and smiled slightly, Gao Feng couldn't help but take a step back vigilantly, not wanting to be too late.
Mama Chun rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward to grab Gao Feng's ears fiercely: "You dead child! You have been able to talk nonsense since you were a child! It's so bad! Look at me if I don't clean you up today!"
Gao Feng was rudely dragged away by Mama Chun.
Li Yu motioned to He Linwan to follow him, Xiao Man wanted to follow, but was swept away by Li Yu's faint eyes but unconsciously froze in place, not daring to follow again.
The Pavilion is a two-storey building in the west of the plum garden, the place is not big, but it is quiet and exquisite, and the second floor has a small study room in addition to the living room.
He Linwan followed Li Yu upstairs in silence all the way, Li Yu raised his hand to push the door, but He Linwan grabbed his sleeve. Li Yu glanced at He Linwan, and then stepped out of the way.
He Linwan stood in front of the door for a while, and then walked slowly towards the window on the right, this is the south-facing window in the study, it may be that the people inside are afraid of the heat, so he opened a door at this moment, and from the outside, he could see the situation in the study at a glance.
A green-shirted maid is sitting on a small stool not far from the window doing needlework, there is a big mahogany low-legged desk in the middle, the table is full of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, a small figure is sitting upright at the desk with a pen and bowing his head to write, his eyes are seriously staying on the end of the pen, his lips are tightly pursed, and a small face looks a little serious and old.
He Linwan was overjoyed, distressed, sad, and glad when he saw this little face...... All kinds of emotions rolled in her heart, He Linwan's legs were a little weak, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Gu Yu, who was sitting by the window doing needlework, inadvertently looked up and saw He Linwan outside the window, and couldn't help but be stunned, and when he saw Li Yu still standing behind He Linwan, he came back to his senses, quickly put down the needle and thread in his hand, stood up, and ran to open the door.
Xiao Mu, who was practicing calligraphy, finally looked up and looked at it suspiciously, and when he saw the stranger standing outside the window, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he immediately lowered his head to cover up.
Since Xiao Mu was brought to the Plum Garden by Li Heng, in addition to going to Mr. Qiu Yu to study every day, he has never been in contact with people outside the Plum Garden, even on the way to Mr. Qiu's house, he always restrained the children's curiosity about things, and rarely lifted the curtain.
"Sister Gu Yu?" Xiao Mu came out from behind the desk and shouted softly.
Gu Yu was about to open the door, when he heard this, he turned his head and said in a low voice: "It's our prince who is here! Don't worry, he is very busy and won't take care of you as a child, so he will definitely come and go after a circle." ”
Li Yu outside the door: "......"
After Gu Yu finished speaking, he opened the door and saluted Li Yu respectfully: "Slave Gu Yu has seen the prince. Then he looked at He Linwan again, and he didn't know how to change his name for a while, so he had to be blessed and said, "I've seen the girl." ”
Xiao Mu stood behind Gu Yu with his head down, looking very shy and afraid to talk to strangers, and when Li Yu landed his eyes on him, Xiao Mu's whole body tensed.
Gu Yu hurriedly said: "Shizi, this is Mu Xiaogongzi, the king of the county asked him to live in Meiyuan temporarily." ”
Yang Chengjie in He Linwan's eyes is a naughty and coquettish child, he loves to laugh, and when he laughs, his eyes will bend into a pair of crescents, which will make you can't help but be soft on him. But the child in front of him was sensitive, silent, and vigilant, with a calmness that ordinary children did not have.
Looking at Yang Chengjie like this, He Linwan couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
Li Yu nodded, and said in a gentle voice: "If you need anything, just tell Mama Chun." ”
Gu Yu was a little surprised that the dustless and indifferent prince would say such a thing, but the heart she had been carrying just now finally relaxed: "Yes, the prince." ”
Gu Yu secretly glanced at Xiao Mutou, signaling him to come forward to curry favor with this master, she knew that this man's thighs were much bigger than those of King Kangjun.
Xiao Mu came forward with his head bowed and whispered, "Shizi." "I was a little embarrassed about what to call when I was late.
Li Yu said: "Her surname is He, you call her sister." ”
Xiao Mu pursed his lips, his voice was very small, but he was a little stubborn: "Sister He." ”
He Linwan stepped forward and couldn't help but put his hand on Xiao Mu's head and rubbed it, the sudden warmth made Xiao Mu stunned, he couldn't help but look up at He Linwan, but he was not the person in his memory.
He Linwan saw the disappointment and sadness in Xiao Mutou's eyes, she couldn't help but feel distressed, and smiled: "Why don't you raise your head when you speak?"
Xiao Mu was silent, and Gu Yu hurriedly said: "Miss He, don't be surprised, Mu Xiaogongzi is more shy, but he is very smart, he can write a lot of words, and he can memorize a lot of books." ”
Hearing the meaning of maintenance in Gu Yu's words, He Linwan smiled at her, then stepped forward and gently and firmly held Xiao Mu's face to make him raise his head, looked into his eyes and said, "No matter who is standing in front of you, you must raise your head and speak!"
Xiao Mutou looked at He Linwan in a daze, he felt that the words spoken by Sister He in front of him and her movements and tone were very similar to his sister, this familiarity made him blink his eyes and nodded obediently.
He Linwan smiled and touched his little head.
I don't know why, Xiao Mu somewhat hopes that this hand can stay on his head for a while, although he doesn't like others to touch his head, but now this gentle pampering feeling makes him can't help but be nostalgic.
Gu Yu looked at He Linwan curiously, she didn't know who He Linwan was, He Linwan didn't look very old, but when she spoke, she felt very calm and magnanimous, and at first glance she was not a girl from an ordinary family. She also noticed that He Linwan seemed to like Xiao Mu very much, although his speech was faintly strong and instructive, but there was no malice, so Gu Yu silently stood aside and ignored it.
Li Yu said: "I'll deal with something." ”
He Linwan glanced back at Li Yu and nodded.
Li Yu turned around and went out, and took the door with him.
He Linwan walked to the bookcase to see the words that Xiao Mu had just written, Xiao Mu subconsciously followed, but refused to get too close, and only looked at He Linwan from five steps away.
He Linwan looked at the content written on the paper on the small wood, which was the "learning chapter" of the Analects.
He Linwan smiled and beckoned to Xiao Mu, who slowly walked in front of He Linwan and looked up at her.
"Have you studied the Analects?"
Xiao Mu nodded, and shook his head again: "The teacher asked me to copy it, but he hasn't explained it to me yet." ”
In fact, it was the teacher who asked Li Heng to copy, Li Heng was lazy and unhappy, and Xiao Mu accompanied him to copy it with the demeanor of a senior brother.
He Linwan was a little surprised: "King Kangjun also invited you a gentleman?"
Xiao Mu obediently answered all questions: "It's Mr. Qiu who taught Brother Junwang to read, and he also taught me to read." ”
He Linwan was silent for a moment and smiled: "Mr. Qiu is very good, you should learn from him." ”
Xiao Mu nodded ignorantly, and saw He Linwan casually took a pen and drew a circle on the words he wrote, Xiao Mu curiously leaned over to take a look, and found that she circled a word that she had accidentally written incorrectly.
Xiao Mutou felt a little blushing at first, and then the familiarity he felt before came back to his heart, and he asked He Linwan carefully: "Sister He, did I know you before?"
