Mrs. Tai's words were funny, Tao Wenjuan laughed, took the bamboo basket generously, and thanked softly: "Thank you Mrs. Tai, these fruits are excellent, I thank you for your family." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Mrs. Tai smiled and waved her hand, and for a while she seemed to remember something, so she slapped the fan on the palm of her hand, turned to Zhou Yu and said, "Look at my memory, I forgot that I still haven't taken the pill." You go to the shelf in the middle and bring the little box with lotus patterns. ”

Zhou Yu took the order, and after a while, she turned around, holding a small wooden box in her hand, which was only the size of a palm, although it was made of ordinary beech wood, but it was painted with good green lacquer, and it looked very exquisite.

Mrs. Tai took the box, handed it to Tao Wenjuan with her own hands, and said with a smile: "This is loquat pills, I used to eat this when I coughed in the past." I heard that Zunjun has a cough, and it will be better to eat this when you commit it, so you can take it back with you. ”

Her gifts and medicines are not precious things, but they are intimate, very considerate of the Tao family's family background, and there is no condescending attitude.

Seeing this situation, Tao Wenjuan was also sincerely moved in her heart, and thanked Mrs. Tai again and again before resigning.

Because the small bamboo basket and small box were not easy to hold, before leaving, Mrs. Tai specially sent a rough servant woman to carry things for Tao Wenjuan, and asked someone to prepare an ox cart to send her in advance, Tao Wenjuan and the servant woman walked out of Dehui Hall and went straight to the corner gate in front.

At this time, it was the afternoon, the sky was still gray, I don't know when it was clear, the sun was shining in the sky, the sky was dazzlingly blue, and there was not a trace of clouds. In the open space in front of the courtyard of Dehui Hall, there is a white sunshine, and there is nothing to shade.

The servant woman walked in front first, Tao Wenjuan followed, and the two of them avoided the sun and turned to the side of the corridor.

Tao Wenjuan walked and looked around.

This road was not the way she came, and when she came in, she came from the other end of the garden, but she had never seen the scenery here. Compared with the red and light English, tactful and affectionate, this large and empty courtyard shows an indescribable feeling, like vicissitudes, and seems to be decadent, even if the corner of the eaves is lacquered, it can't hide the coldness in the bones.

The so-called century-old scholars, now living in a corner and gradually falling, can not help but make people sigh. Tao Wenjuan saw the things and sighed in her heart, and was looking around, and suddenly felt a corner of the blue skirt floating in the corner of her eye.

She hurriedly retracted her gaze and turned her head to look, but saw a person walking at the corner of the corridor in front of her, but it was a young woman, with a green dress and a green skirt, a slender waist and a handy hand, and a graceful gesture.

When the woman saw Tao Wenjuan and the others, she was obviously stunned, stood in place for a while, and then continued to move forward.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Tao Wenjuan felt that since she saw them, the way the woman walked was a little different, with her eyebrows lowered and her hands hanging down at her side, which was much more regular than Fang Cai.

After a glance, Tao Wenjuan looked away.

The two strokes were not too fast, but this curved corridor was not long, but after a few breaths, the woman had already walked to the opposite side of Tao Wenjuan and the others.

At this time, Tao Wenjuan finally saw that what the woman was wearing was actually the costume of the maid of the Eastern Courtyard.

This discovery took her by surprise.

When she looked at it from a distance, she thought she had met a girl in the house, who would have thought that such a charming woman was actually just a maid, which was really unexpected.

She couldn't help frowning, the maid in green clothes was already standing on the side of the corridor at this time, and let the servant woman who had passed Dehui Hall bow down to Tao Wenjuan.

Tao Wenjuan showed a faint smile on her face, nodded at her, and glanced at her without a trace.

The woman's head hung very low, bent her back, and from Tao Wenjuan's angle, she couldn't see her face at all, she could only see the other party's pitch-black bun, but the bun was combed in the style of a woman.

Tao Wenjuan breathed a sigh of relief.

This makes the woman's demeanor too much, if it is an unmarried maid, then the family style of the Qin family can be seen, and she will definitely persuade Tao Ruohan to make a decision as soon as possible after she goes back. Now it seems that she is too worried. Since the maid is married, her graceful posture is not out of place.

When she thought like this, the two had already passed by. And the moment he walked by the handmaiden's side, Tao Wenjuan's nose suddenly floated a faint dark fragrance.

Such as orchid, elegant and clear.

Tao Wenjuan's beautiful face crossed a very faint surprise.

As soon as she smelled this spice, she knew that it was quite precious, and even when their Tao family had not fallen, she had never smelled such an exquisite incense.

In the end, it is a century-old scholar family, who is rich and wealthy, and even an ordinary maid can use such spices.

Thinking in her heart, Tao Wenjuan couldn't help but look back after walking a few steps.

The maid had already turned to the other side of the verandah, and the corner of her blue skirt had only flashed around the corner before disappearing, and the direction in which she was walking was towards the corner gate leading to the east courtyard.

Tao Wenjuan turned around slowly, reached out and stroked the hem of her skirt, but secretly smiled bitterly in her heart.

It's just a handmaiden who meets occasionally, even if the handmaid is a little out of line, it's not a big deal, she's suspicious here, it's really ridiculous.

She let go of her brow and sighed silently.

It seems that she was frightened by that Hu Tian, and she didn't trust these scholars a little, and she always felt as if they were hiding something.

She brushed her skirt again, as if to brush away the faint doubt, and went on again.

I didn't meet anyone along the way, and when I arrived at the Dejiao Gate, the ox cart of the Qin Mansion had been waiting for a long time, Tao Wenjuan rewarded the servant woman with two dollars, sent her away, and got into the car.

Tao Ruohan's courtyard is at the end of the lotus, and further on is Hehui Street, not far from Qinfu, but the time for a small half cup of tea has arrived.

Tao Wenjuan carried things into the courtyard door, and saw the green branches head-on, but it was a delicate rose curtain, the green leaves on the flower curtain overlapped, green like a curtain, when the breeze passed, the full green shadow trembled with the wind, as if to say hello to the comer. There are occasionally one or two Jiaona's light pink and drunken red among the leaves, but it is a rose flower that "is still spring in June in the world, and refuses to easily fall on the branches".

This courtyard is much more spacious than Shangjing, although only one has to enter, this flower curtain has divided the courtyard into two sections before and after, behind the flower curtain is the inner house, there are three main rooms with light and two darkness, a small room in each of the east and west compartments, and there is only a slightly larger room in front of the flower curtain, now it is Tao Ruohui's study, occasionally guests come, and they are also sitting in this study room.
