Chapter 367: The Moonlight Falls

The attendant looked at Yuan Xiu and heard her say sincerely: "If you want to talk about sending flowers, let's be safer." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"After picking the flowers, let's take a wooden box each."

Yuan Xiu paused and said, "Let's send the flowers to Lord Liu's side, what do you think?" ”

The attendant listened to her say a few words one after another, and then his eyes fell on Yuan Xiu's face.

The attendant scrutinized her expression.

He is also a person with a cheerful personality, and after listening to it, he thought about it and nodded and smiled: "This is the best." ”

"It's getting dark, and I'm worried about the flowers falling."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the gardener, and turned his gaze to Yuan Xiu again: "It's cold, since your grandfather has a leg disease, he is not well yet...... Don't let him run hard. ”

"Ah Xiu can also help with something!"

There is nothing wrong with this matter, because almost everyone in the house knows Yuan Xiu.

Yuan Xiu himself is also happy to go on this trip, instead of his grandfather with inconvenient legs.

The gardener thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.

There is still business tomorrow morning, if he has something to do at night, then the matter of going out tomorrow will be in vain.

So, after the three of them discussed, Yuan Xiu took the attendants to the warm house in the flower garden.

As soon as I walked in, a heavy curtain separated it, and there was obviously a heat inside...... It's a stark contrast to the freezing outside.

From the moment the attendant entered the conservatory, his eyes were already drawn to the flowers that bloomed on the winter night on the shelves.

Where can you see such a splendid scene in the town of Northland in winter!

Pots and pots of flowers...... His eyes widened and he couldn't catch it.

Yuan Xiu stood patiently aside, knowing that it was rare for the attendant to come and see this scene, she would naturally feel novel, so she waited quietly and occasionally glanced at him.

As for deciding what flowers and plants to choose, there are quite a few greenhouses here.

Yuan Xiu believed that the female official should have given instructions to the attendants before coming.

The choice now is actually up to the squire.

However, if the other party is dazzled and feels embarrassed...... Yuan Xiu is very willing to recommend it to him.

...... Calming down from the initial dazzle, the attendant began to examine the pots carefully, his eyes drawn to the small flowers that bloomed exceptionally luxuriantly on the shelves.

Yuan Xiu followed his eyes, knew what to expect, took a step forward and pointed to the potted flowers, and smiled at the attendant: "This is also the flower seed sent from the national capital, which was sent last year." ”

There will be some connection between the national capital and the Northland, and the first stop of the car is often the town of Northland, where some letters and items will be delivered from time to time.

Correspondingly, there are also many things that have passed from the Northlands.

"Grandpa will try to carry seeds with us after he gets them," Yuan Xiu paused and continued, "After planting, "there are only two pots that can survive." ”

When Yuan Xiu spoke, she remembered some things mentioned by her grandfather.

In fact, there is another layer of inside information here, and the attendants are not clear.

The Yuan family has a distant relative who works in the flower garden in the palace, and the gardeners are also a little connected to the national capital.

The master surnamed Yuan, who also worked in the flower garden, had some convenient conditions because he was in the flower garden in the palace.

The flower seeds that can be transported here from the palace are a little implicated by that side, but the steward of the palace flower garden did not object, and the flower seeds can be sent smoothly, which shows that this matter was allowed by the female official.

In Yuan Xiu's impression, she only saw that relative when she was a child, and she was the same person with a hearty personality.

Many years have passed, and Yuan Xiu hasn't seen him since then, and he has no intention of coming here in the palace for many years, but the gardener will occasionally mention it when he knows how to do things in the flower garden.

Yuan Xiu has also heard of it.

She retracted her thoughts and looked at the attendant and explained, "We have planted flowers in the greenhouse...... A pot has been sent to the National Teacher. ”

Yuan Xiu paused, thought for a while, and said, "Right now, there is only this one pot left in the greenhouse. ”

The attendant stared at it for a while, and the flowers and plants in the pot were indeed pleasing to the eye, making it difficult to look away.

When he heard that the National Teacher had taken a basin, he couldn't help but nod, and secretly said in his heart that the eyes of the people around the National Teacher were also the same.

The attendant made up his mind in his heart, and then looked at Yuan Xiu and said, "Just choose this, and ...... Pick another pot. ”

The pot of flowers just now was the first thing the attendant himself set his eyes on.

When he made his second choice in the flower garden, he listened to Yuan Xiu's words and also picked a pot of flowers and plants that looked vibrant.

Compared to the previous selection, the flowers selected in the second pot were a few points inferior.

The climate in the north is not good, and the attendant still has to choose the one that looks in better condition, and when the time comes, it will be easier to maintain.

If you take it and it withers in a few days, it will be more disappointing!

The people in the house are different from the gardeners.

Compared to the gardener, they are not insiders after all, and the flowers and plants grow well in the greenhouse, and once they are taken out, of course, they have to choose the ones with stronger vitality.

It took them some time to make a choice after comparing them in the conservatory.

During this period, the attendants were also amazed by the other flowers and plants, but Yuan Xiu knew that those pots were also for the house where the national teacher lived, so he told the attendants bluntly.

The latter can't be thought of, those pots of flowers have been included in the scope of the National Teacher's possession.

When they had put the flowers and plants in place in a wooden box to take them away, the gardener, who had been listening to the movement of the conservatory, finally couldn't help but come out of the house.

He leaned against the door frame and watched Yuan Xiu and the attendants come out of the warm room, and his eyes immediately fixed on the box in their hands.

Before leaving, the gardener looked at the flowers and plants that had been picked away, and his expression was a little depressed...... He didn't forget to tell Yuan Xiu a few words, which was nothing more than a reminder to be careful.

The flowers and plants that were taken away always made him feel a little worried, especially the ones he liked very much.

The attendant knew that the old man in the house carefully maintained these flowers and plants every day, and he was definitely a person who loved flowers and plants very much.

Listening to the other party's words to Yuan Xiu, he also echoed a few times.

"Ah Xiu, your grandfather really likes these flowers!"

After walking out of the road, the attendant glanced back at the gardener standing by the courtyard gate, and turned his head to Yuan Xiudao.

Yuan Xiu smiled when he heard this: "Yes, grandpa, he is a little obsessed, about his old man's opinion, these flowers and plants are almost the same as people!" ”

Hearing this, the attendant couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ah Xiu, you don't seem to be ah!" ”

He said in a somewhat teasing tone: "Speaking of which, haven't you always followed your grandfather and grew up beside him since childhood?" How come you weren't affected? ”

"Although I like flowers and plants, I haven't reached the level of grandpa," Yuan Xiu said frankly.

After a while, she turned her head to look at the attendant and said, "Please be careful with the road under your feet, grandpa is just worried that we will fall when we walk!" ”

If something goes wrong, the gardener will talk about it for a few days, Yuan Xiu knows.

...... The two walked through the path in the woods, and after walking for a while, they vaguely saw a light on outside the forest on one side.

Over there was the small courtyard where the craftsmen lived, and Yuan Xiu's eyes couldn't help but look in that direction.

The flower garden is close to the yard where the craftsmen lived, and both are located in remote corners of the house, and ordinary people rarely come here.

It was already night at this moment, and Yuan Xiu guessed that the craftsmen in the small courtyard must have returned, maybe a few of them were talking at this moment after eating!

Yuan Xiu remembered that Xiao Lin said that they would make their own food, and he didn't know what Xiao Lin's craftsmanship was?!

Her thoughts drifted away, and she was almost tripped over the fallen leaves and dead branches under her feet.

The attendant looked at Yuan Xiu and stumbled for a moment, but fortunately he didn't fall, and couldn't help but smile again: "Ah Xiu, you have reminded me, why are you not careful!" ”

"If you fall, whose fault is it?"

The squire couldn't help but tease her.

The moonlight sprinkled between the leaves faintly illuminated Yuan Xiu's face, and her face flushed.

Fortunately, it was night, and the blush was not obvious...... Yuan Xiu was a little embarrassed, and secretly reminded himself to hurry up and concentrate, hold the flowers and plants in his hand, and stop thinking about anything else.

She was also afraid that she would be distracted and attract the attendants to make fun of her.

The two of them walked through the path, and soon turned and walked onto another path in the courtyard of the house.

...... I pushed open the door and walked into the woods outside the small courtyard, stepping on the fallen leaves on the ground, until I walked into the depths of the forest.

At this moment, the moonlight reflected the open space in front of me through the leaves, and I stood there, looking around.

I didn't see any unrelated people passing by.

I calmed down and listened for any noise other than the wind.

When I made sure that there was no one nearby, I took a deep breath and took out the piccolo that I had with me.

I don't know when the dark guard said he would return to the mansion at night?!

But it was the dead of night, and I thought he was probably back, right?

With a thought to myself, I brought the "piccolo" close to my lips and blew the first note.

I was so surprised when it made a sound that I paused for a moment and looked at the little thing in my hand in amazement.

I really didn't expect this humble piccolo to sound so pleasant!

After I settled down, I blew the second and third sounds in succession......

...... This part of Northland has a vast area and a deep courtyard, but the view of the backyard is a little different.

Looking up from the window, the distant mountains are faint, and the backyard is directly opposite a large beautiful lake view.

At this moment, the lanterns hanging from the curved bridge over the lake are still lit.

In the lakeside attic, incense is burning and smelling in the stove in the corner of the wall...... An aroma that will calm you down.

Yun Chu looked down at the chessboard placed in front of him alone, and his thick eyelashes cast a small shadow on his jade-like face.

Mo Yan stood in a corner of the room, his eyes were attracted by that figure again and again, he couldn't take his eyes off it, and he was fascinated when he looked at it.

Time passes imperceptibly.

It wasn't until Yun Chu's gaze suddenly turned towards him that Mo Yan hurriedly looked away.

Yun Chu seemed to feel something, and slowly stood up......

Mo Yan suddenly felt like a great enemy, and quickly dodged over to help him.

Soon, he was amazed to see that his son-in-law's pale face suddenly seemed to be smeared with a layer of brilliance.

Yun Chu's deep, inky black eyes stared at the windowsill, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, and then followed his line of sight, but he couldn't see anything special.

He looked down and thought about it, feeling a little strange.

At this moment, the night is already deep, and now I don't know why, his son-in-law looks a lot better.

Even Mo Yan noticed it, and Yun Chu's mood seemed to be very good at this time.

Mo Yan was puzzled.

...... As if the first time I had appeared inadvertently, I heard a low sound suddenly from a large tree in the forest, and my body sank.

I looked in the direction of the sound, and unsurprisingly saw the man in a night suit.

He was just like the last time he came, he could have appeared silently, but he deliberately made a little noise so that I could hear it.

"Hey, you're here!"

I was relieved to see him fly in front of me.

Before he appeared, I couldn't help but be a little worried, wondering if the promise of the piccolo sound was true.

The dark guard stared at me and said calmly, "Did you run into trouble in the mansion today?" ”

Hearing this, I was slightly stunned, and immediately remembered what he had asked me when he first appeared in the woods, and at that time he also specially reminded me not to conflict with others if I was in trouble.

He also said that he would help me out.

I hesitated for a moment, shook my head, and said, "I didn't have any trouble. ”

He stood not far from me, stared at me and frowned, and said in a calm tone, "You didn't tell the truth. ”

I felt deflated.

Compared to the Dark Guard, I'm really ...... If it's not enough to see, people will guess it!

I thought about it, but I still didn't think I should tell him everything that happened, after all, I didn't suffer anything.

I was pulled out of danger by my own mind, and the attendant who had sent me from an unknown origin to lure me away did not bother me too much.

At least in my opinion, the man also had scruples, and that was his weakness.

But I still have something to ask for help from the secret guard in front of me, and if I don't say a word, won't it seem too insincere?

I thought for a few seconds, looked at him and said in a serious tone: "When the house is big, there are many people." ”

"In my opinion, it is inevitable that each of them will have a small abacus, which is similar to the truth in the palace."

I glanced at him and said in a calm tone, "But those things are not enough to cause me trouble now, if it can't be solved, I will definitely ask you for help." ”

He glanced at me, nodded, and said, "You can say something directly." ”

I looked down and wondered, how could I better talk to him?
