Chapter 107: Liyuan Snow
After turning a few corners in the corridor, I saw a thin path of sheep's intestines, and the path was paved with white stones, even in the dim light, it was also dazzling white. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At the end of the path are two half-moon gates, surrounded by a flower wall, and outside the wall is a tall pear tree, under which is a thick pile of snow, still crystal white.
Qin Su looked up at the lintel, there was a lacquer plaque hanging on it, and the word "Xilu" was written on it, but it was Qin Shizhang's ink.
"This is it, Sixth Sister, please come in. Qin Yanzhao stretched out his hand with great masterly demeanor, and Ah Cheng had already stepped forward and pushed the door open.
Qin Su took Ah Li's hand and stepped into the courtyard.
This courtyard is quite large, but there are only a few pine and bamboo trees in it, and there are no other flowers and trees, and there is no superfluous decoration, a pear tree outside the courtyard door pokes into most of the body, and when it comes to spring, it is the only beautiful color in this courtyard.
Qin Su couldn't help but nod secretly.
Xilu was cleaned up very well, and it seemed that the Zhong family had taken care of Qin Yanzhao in all aspects.
Because after a search, the servants in the Xilu are all fresh faces, Qin Su has been looking at it for a long time, and he has not seen the few handmaidens he has seen in his previous life, only two or three young people are guarding the wings and other places, and most of the people walking in the courtyard are half a small house.
"Lang Jun is back. A small guy who was guarding the door of the main room saw Qin Yanzhao and the others coming, and hurriedly stepped forward a few steps, and when he caught a glimpse of Qin Su behind Qin Yanzhao, he was obviously a little stunned, and after a while, he bent down and saluted.
Another little guy guarding the door opened the curtain at this time, and said with a smile: "Lang Jun, please come in, girl, please come in." "The attitude is very earnest.
Qin Su secretly looked at the two little guys, but at the end of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Ah Li's cheeks bulging slightly, and seemed to be quite disapproving.
"What's wrong?" Qin Su asked softly, while pulling away from Qin Yanzhao in front of him.
Ah Li puffed out his mouth and glanced at the two little guys, Fang leaned into Qin Su's ear, and whispered quickly: "The little guy who lifted the curtain is the righteous brother of Ah Sheng's distant cousin." ”
Qin Su raised his eyebrows.
The Zhong family changed all the manpower in Xilu, and the two little servants who helped search the study in the west window were originally the servants of the Zhong family, and it was very suitable to be Qin Yanzhao's little servants.
Qin Su turned his mind around, and was invited into the main room by Qin Yanzhao.
The room is very simple and simple, and the tables and chairs are plain and unpatterned. Although the period of filial piety had passed for 100 days, there was still not a single superfluous object in the house, except for white and black, and even the clothes of the servants were not of this color.
It seems that under the influence of the previous overstep, Qin Yanzhao has been extremely self-disciplined in some subtleties, and I have to say that he is very pleased with this.
"Sixth sister, please come to this house, this room is a little warmer. Qin Yanzhao let her into the east room, and beckoned the little maid to send a warm bag.
The east room is only thicker than the curtain, and there are no carbon stoves and smoke cages for heating, which is still extremely simple.
Qin Su looked around, nodded in admiration, and said, "The second brother still obeys the system of 100 days, which really makes the little sister worship." ”
Qin Yanzhao's expression was sluggish, his face seemed to be a little uncomfortable, and he involuntarily turned his gaze to the window, paused for a while, and then smiled reluctantly: "This is the etiquette set by the ancestors, and it must be obeyed doubly." ”
Qin Su maintained an admiring look on his face, and sighed: "The second brother said it so well, the little sister has a lot of Furu, and she will have to learn from the second brother in the future." ”
Qin Yanzhao tilted his head slightly, a trace of gloom crossed his eyebrows, but he didn't answer again.
Qin Su knew that this topic made him a little uncomfortable, so he didn't continue, after a pause, he changed the conversation, deliberately relaxed his tone, and said with a smile: "Okay, I have come to Xilu with a smile, and I have entered the second brother's study, and I hope that the second brother will not hesitate to give pictures, so that the little sister can also gain some knowledge." ”
When Qin Yanzhao heard this, he smiled: "Sixth sister is interesting when she speaks. ”
His tone at this time was a little more relaxed, and after finishing speaking, he instructed Ah Cheng on the side: "You go to the big bookshelf in the middle, move the bookcase at the bottom, and if you can't lift it, ask Ah Shu to help you." ”
Ah Shu is Ah Sheng's cousin's righteous brother, listening to Qin Yanzhao's call, he stepped forward and said "yes", Ah Cheng also stepped forward to receive the order, and went to the east room with Ah Shu, and after a while, the two walked in with a large bookcase.
The bookcase is made of beech wood, and the whole body is painted with black lacquer, and it is not precious, but the body shape is very huge, and the weight should be very heavy when looking at Ah Cheng's hard work.
The two of them carried the bookcase and rested it under the large bookcase by the window, and then retreated silently.
Seeing this, Qin Su also turned to Ah Li and commanded softly: "That's it, while there is nothing to do at this time, you can go back to Dongli to get a warm bag for me first, and then go to the inner box to get a dime of silver, remember to avoid people." As he spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve and handed her a key, and said in a softer voice: "This is the key to open the box." There is also this money, but I forgot it when I came, but the old woman at the corner gate of the West Courtyard never gave a reward, so you took it and gave it to them. ”
These old women who guard the door and sweep the floor are the ones who love to chew their tongues everywhere. Qin Su knew that her little money couldn't stop them, but she didn't ask them to take the initiative to spread it.
The matter of her coming to the West Courtyard can be known later, it will be later, and it is better that no one mentions it.
The two of them spoke softly, and Qin Yanzhao opened the bookcase there.
There were three bright copper locks hanging on the bookcase, and it would take a while to open them, until Qin Su finished explaining, Ah Li took the order, and Qin Yanzhao was still holding the key and poking the keyhole of the last lock, looking extremely focused.
Seeing this, Qin Su felt another layer of trouble in his heart.
She didn't expect that Qin Yanzhao would lock this album so tightly, no wonder Ah Cheng said that he couldn't steal it. The three keys were all in Qin Yanzhao's hands, and the bookcase was stored in the inner bedroom, so ordinary people couldn't touch it at all.
With a "click", the last lock opened, Qin Yanzhao put away the key, and at the same time straightened up and smiled at Qin Su: "Sixth sister, do you want to laugh? The tone was slightly self-deprecating.
Qin Su hurriedly shook his head: "I won't laugh at the second brother." As he spoke, he lowered his head slightly, and his voice gradually decreased: "This is what I forced to see, and it is really not mine to embarrass the second brother." "The further down he goes, the lower his head hangs.
She has already felt the temperament of her second brother, and she has often practiced in the mirror recently, and now she is very handy in making this pitiful appearance.
Seeing that her black and thin little face was half-lowered, and the two maidens of the crow crow were hanging down with two white cloth bands, looking a little pitiful, Qin Yanzhao's heart had already softened, and he said softly: "The sixth sister said too much. You have a heart to learn, and you should help your brother. After that, he opened the bookcase, took out a picture album, handed it to Qin Su, and said warmly: "Oh, this is the mountain and river atlas, you can look at it." (To be continued.) )
