Li sighed, "It's not that the eldest prince is feasting in front of him, and he has recruited a bunch of dramatists, who think I am disgusted with them, and drive me out of the East Pavilion." I don't like to look at them, so I go to my sister-in-law's place. ”

Guo Wenying let the maid serve tea, and the two sat together to talk.

After talking for a long time, there is nothing to talk about, the boudoir women are shallow, what they say is nothing more than some rouge gouache, embroidery and embroidery thread, and Li does not like to talk about people's rights and wrongs, and after talking for a while, he can't talk anymore.

Guo Wenying has a match or not, and she is not very interested in looking at it.

Seeing that she didn't react, Li smiled and said, "It's okay left and right, sister-in-law might as well go to the garden with me, the flowers are blooming just right now, pick some and let's make flower tea to drink." ”

Guo Wenying suddenly came to her senses and said busily: "Okay." ”

The two got up and went out, and they didn't bring any subordinates, only one of them brought a maid, and then walked to the back garden. Talking and laughing all the way, when I arrived at the garden, I saw a lot of flowers, purple and red, there were blooming roses on the left side of the wall, small white and pink flowers, slim and elegant, surrounded by flower plates, and the fragrance of flowers was overflowing.

Seeing the rose, Guo Wenying lost her mind for a moment, she was also under this rose when she was young, she played hide and seek with her mother, and people drilled under the flower, and her mother couldn't find her at all. Once she fell asleep under the trellis, and her mother searched the whole garden but could not find it, and she was so anxious that she went crazy. She will always remember the moment when she came out from under the trellis and shouted "mother", her mother hugged her tightly, and tears were about to flow out.

Reminiscing about the life I used to have, it was a really carefree day, so that occasionally I would think of this rose stand when I dreamed back at midnight.

She stood in front of the flower stand for a long time, and when Li saw that she didn't move, he said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, let's go over there and have a look." ”

Guo Wenying nodded, and followed her along the stone path, this Hou Mansion is the mansion left by the old Hou Ye, and its specifications and layout are not comparable to ordinary mansions. On the east side of the garden there is a courtyard, which is full of flowers, the flowers are not very large, and from a distance they are dotted with yellow, red, and white - and they exude a burst of fragrance, and the courtyard is also richly decorated. The western part of the garden is dominated by rockeries. The rockery is stacked on top of each other, and the design is very realistic, giving people the feeling that they are visiting in the real mountain, lifelike.

The two maids each took a basket and walked through the flowers, and in a short time they gathered a lot.

Li was very pleased, and said to Guo Wenying: "I'll go and put down the flowers first, and then take the tea set, let's cook tea in this garden for a while, okay? ”

Guo Wenying said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is going by herself." ”

"Okay, then you wait here for a while, don't go far. Li said, and asked the two maids to go with him.

Guo Wenying is here alone to enjoy the flowers, she doesn't like the flowers and plants very much, she just thinks it is pleasing to the eye, and she just looks at it once in a while.

After a while, a maid came running over in small steps and smiled at her: "Miss, the young grandmother said to wait for you in the courtyard on the east side, where there are more flowers, and the yard is quiet." ”

Guo Wenying glanced at her, "It wasn't you who followed your grandmother just now?"

The maid said: "I'm Xiang'er, it was Gui'er who followed the young grandmother just now, and Gui'er was busy, so let me call the young lady over." ”

Since she was Li's maid, Guo Wenying didn't think about anything else, so she followed Xiang'er to the east. This courtyard on the east side was built by my grandfather and named it Xiantingju, and my grandfather occasionally lived here when he was alive, and it was idle after he went. However, as usual, someone came to clean it, and the inside was still the same as when my grandfather was alive. Speaking of which, this courtyard was the only place where he still had his thoughts.

Guo Wenying used to like this place very much, and the Li family chose to cook tea here, which was exactly what she wanted.

She entered the room, and before Li came, there was a complete set of tea sets on the table, and a pot of boiling water was steaming.

Xiang'er said: "Miss sit down for a while, our grandma said to change clothes and come." ”

Guo Wenying nodded, just sat for a while, didn't wait for Li, but heard a man's voice in the courtyard: "What kind of place is this? Ronggui, go pick one and put it on for your master. ”

With the voice, a man in brocade clothes walked this way, this person was twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and he looked a little heroic, but his face was covered with a layer of white powder, and there was a large pink moon flower on his head, which was not commensurate with his angular face, and he squeezed out a little ridiculous.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he suddenly saw a woman with a beautiful face and an extraordinary temperament looking at him through the window, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said with a smile: "There is still such a beauty here? ”

He was a wanderer, and he didn't care whether he could enter this place or not, and strode in.

When he arrived in the inner hall, he sat down on the chair with a big grin, squinted at Guo Wenying, and his voice was very annoying, "Little lady, what are you doing sitting here alone?

If it was another weak woman in the boudoir, when she saw such a person who did not look like a good person appearing in front of her, she would not immediately scream, but she would have cried at that time.

Guo Wenying didn't even look at him, he reached out to take the teapot to make water to drink, that posture was not elegant, but a little unexpected.

That man was Ling Yangxu, he was so big that he had never been treated slowly, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and said angrily: "You little girl, what do you ask you about, are you dumb?"

Guo Wenying glanced at him and said lightly: "There is no dumbness, it's just that a dog came out of nowhere, and it is annoying." ”

Ling Yangxu was stunned, and suddenly laughed, "You are the eldest lady of the Guo family that Wen Yun said, aren't you?" Wen Yun said that she is a sharp and spicy person, it is really unexpected, look at this mouth, scolding people is really damaged." But no matter how sharp you are, you are also a girl, if you get married in the future, you will be obedient if your husband does not pick it up. ”

When Guo Wenying heard him say this, she secretly said in her heart, this person should be a guest invited by Guo Wenyun, this is the inner courtyard, how could he have come here if no one took him with him? Looking at him like that, he drank a few more glasses and was a little drunk, and I don't know if he came unintentionally, or was brought by someone with a heart. But either way, nothing good will happen to this person.

Since she arrived in this Guo Mansion, she has been careful everywhere, for fear of falling into other people's ways. If it weren't for Li's looking for her today, she wouldn't have come out, and it seems that this play is afraid to sing something new.
