Chapter 49: The Earrings Found (4)
As soon as Ying Hao turned around, he saw Zhishu snickering, and immediately glared at Zhishu and drove Zhishu out. Then he looked at her, and was surprised that he had let her into the study like this.
Zhishu touched his nose and retreated, thinking about closing the door, and smiled at Pear and Meizi, who were a little flustered at the door. Then the three of them seemed to have a tacit understanding all of a sudden, and they put their ears close to the door again. Originally, Zhishu would not do such a thing of eavesdropping on the corner, but this time she did. I just think that as soon as I come out, I see pears and plums eavesdropping, but I don't make people feel disgusted when they see it. They have a really good relationship with the master inside, out of concern. She couldn't help it. What will it say?
This was the first time she had entered his study, and she was inevitably a little curious, and although she pretended not to move, she quietly looked around.
His study was very clean. It is not used for entertaining guests, so there is only a desk at the door, and a pot of lilac orchids in full bloom is placed on it. On either side are two half-height vases, and the bamboos inside are green. The landscape painting reflects the entire wall behind it, and there is also a bamboo forest in the near part of the painting. It's as if the painting extends to reality, from black and white to color, it doesn't feel abrupt, but adds a touch of interest. Speaking of which, there is also a little bit of vermilion in the distance in the painting, which is the only color in the painting, like scattered mountain flowers, and like a little lamplight. She suddenly felt that this painting was not painted by him himself?
Whether it's flowers or not, it can be seen that he really loves flowers. Or the lights are good, and it is more leisurely under the east fence of picking chrysanthemums. She originally had the impression that he was a prince with great ambitions. At this time, he found that perhaps deep down in his heart, he was yearning for a casual and open-minded simple life.
Look again on the left-hand side. A large desk with four treasures in the upper study. Among them, the ink tray is faintly wet, which shows that it is not an ornament. And there are still two or three books on the table, and the top one is open, rolled up and placed, it must have been the last time I saw here, right?
Except for the large desk in the center. There is an octagonal window on the sunny side of the desk on the right side, and the scenery outside is not fully visible from her angle for the time being, but the window is faintly visible and all green. It was under this window that a low table was placed, on which was placed a zither that was black and red. There was only one incense burner next to the kite, and there was no incense burning in the furnace at this time. But it is also conceivable that when the zither moves, accompanied by the curling incense, the sound of the piano and the cigarette float out of the window together after a moment of encirclement in the room, drifting far away, drifting away...... In the end, it dissipated among the trees, or floated into someone's ears and nose. It's all about one word. She also noticed that there was a sword and a flute hanging on the wall next to the kite. I can't see how sharp the blade in the hilt is. It only sets off the unintentional gentleness of the flute and the zheng.
Finally, she was somewhat surprised to see a pair of pairs sitting opposite each other on the sunny side of the desk, and there was only one chessboard on the small table in the middle. What surprised her was not that there was a chessboard, but that there was clearly a halfway game of backgammon on the board.
She couldn't help but look at him. Did he play backgammon with Zhishu? Or did he ......
Knowing that she was secretly watching his study, he waited patiently for her to see. At this time, he noticed her gaze, and he hurriedly turned sideways, blocking her gaze as she continued to explore the chess board face. Oh no, he secretly practiced backgammon and she found out? What a shame......
Looking at his expression, I'm afraid it's not because he loses more and wins less, and he secretly practices?
"Hee......" she looked away before the laughter burst out.
He still heard it, and immediately because of his shame, he wanted to hide his subconscious and glared at her. Who knew that it was only on the side of her face. She was already looking at the room to the right of her study. Just looking at the side of her face, he still faintly saw the light in her eyes, and the light was getting brighter and brighter.
Wow!
It is worthy of the study of the four princes. The last time she went to a study on the street, she knew that books were still quite expensive at this time. She picked up a book casually, and when she asked, she asked for five fingers of silver in one hand. When he asked again, it became the number of silver with ten fingers on two hands. There are more expensive ones, not to mention. Some of the handwritten handwriting of famous artists are placed on the desk, and there is not even a trace of dust on it, which shows how carefully the seller takes care of it. She was just wandering around and didn't dare to ask. Of course, there are also some cheap ones, all of which are transcribed on extremely thin rice paper, and some don't even have a cover, just piled up together, mostly for poor scholars who are eager to learn but shy in their pockets. No need to ask, the price tag is marked on the bookcase, thirty wen a piece. Think about it, Brother Lu's chaos bowl only costs two pennies. It's still enough material for Brother Lu. Many diners who eat a bowl every morning are considered a luxury, and they feel full of strength and can work harder. There are also cheaper breakfast stalls, a bowl of porridge and two vegetable buns only cost a penny. This is the level of consumption of the common people. Thirty yuan is enough for one person to eat breakfast for a month. Come to think of it, it is really a poor scholar with four walls, and he also tightened his belt and saved a month's breakfast money to get such a book.
Let's take a look at these books of the Four Princes. A whole room! In addition to a desk in front of the sunny window, there is a pot of orchids on it. The other two sides are wall-sized bookcases. It can be about 10 meters long, and then in the middle of the room, there are rows of life-tall bookcases, which are arranged so closely that only one person can pass between the bookcases. That's still the figure of an ordinary person. She silently looked down at her round waist from the front to the side. I'm afraid she's going to squeeze it in sideways? I'm afraid I'm afraid I'm going to squeeze over the bookcase next to her, and even if I can't squeeze it, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll have to squeeze a few books.
And you don't have to look closely, a cursory look can tell that the study of the four princes is full of hardcover books. Also, how can there be a bargain in the study of a dignified man.
Seeing the light in her eyes, he couldn't help but suggest, "Do you like it? ”
"Okay?" she immediately looked at him with her sparkling eyes wide open. But soon the light in her eyes dimmed.
He couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't be afraid, the middle one is narrower, and I'll call someone to widen it up tomorrow." The gaps on both sides are big enough for you to pass through. You can take a look at those today. ”
Hey, he didn't even want to say that he was going to find someone to widen the distance between the bookcases for her sake, as if he was looking forward to her coming more...... He's not...... Forget it, she didn't notice him anyway.
Her eyes narrowed, and she hated it when she saw that the corners of his mouth couldn't suppress the upward curve of his mouth with a smile that he couldn't suppress. Yes, she's just fat, and she can't squeeze into the bookcase in the middle. But since he said she could go over and see it, she should go and have a look. Whether the gap on both sides is big enough, even if it is not enough, he can only consider himself unlucky if he touches any of his books. Anyway, he has a lot of money, and if he can't get used to the books and they are damaged, he will buy new ones.
Settled on this somewhat ill-intentioned idea. She immediately turned around and strode head-on. Halfway through, she was stunned.
She couldn't see the angle just now, but she didn't expect that there was another mystery hidden in this end!
