The spring rain is dripping, and the buds and green flowers and plants in the house are becoming more and more green.

The girl hurried out of the kitchen with a tray in her hand.

"Sister, I'll help you hold the umbrella." Banqin said, hurriedly holding up the umbrella and keeping up.

The two hurriedly walked up the steps through the gravel path, collected their umbrellas at the bottom of the porch, and opened the door.

"Lady, I'm done." The girl said.

The girl walked in, Banqin lowered her head and pulled the door, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw the room mile Jiao Niang put down the book in her hand.

She was stunned outside the door for a moment, walked away a few steps, and stood under the porch to watch the rain make a slight noise.

"Lady, how about this?"

"Well, the fire is a little bigger."

"Oh yes yes, I made a note of the lady, I'll try again later."

"That's a good job."

"Really? Xie Lu Xie Niangzi. ”

"Thank me for what I did, it was your own heart."

There was a question and answer in the room, and occasionally there was a giggling sound of a girl.

Banqin couldn't help but look back, with a complicated expression.

If it wasn't at the beginning, the person who was laughing with the lady at this moment should be himself.

There are no ifs in this world, and if this is already the case, cherish the present.

She took a deep breath, opened the door on the other side and walked in, took the dress that had been washed and dried, lit charcoal and put it in the pipe, and slowly ironed and folded it.

In the courtyard of the Zhang family's house, the maid put away the umbrella, and a few maids and servants under the corridor greeted her with a smile.

"Sister Su Xin, why did it rain today?" They asked, laughing.

"Let's take a look at the master." The maidservant smiled as she walked into the hall, thinking of something and turning back to admonish. "Call me Banqin."

The maid and the maid looked at each other. Is the name Banqin good? Why are both girls called this?

In the hall, Mrs. Zhang put down the book in his hand. Look at the servant girl who prostrates to the priest.

"It's really rare, you still remember me, the old man." He laughed.

The handmaid laughed too.

"Master, the maid who said this is so unkind." She smiled, and reached out to take a thin book and pushed it over, "Not only does the maid remember the master, but the lady also remembers." ”

Old lady Zhang looked at it with a smile.

It's a homemade book with a somewhat uneven edges.

"The lady deliberately wrote the method of snacks by hand and asked the grandfather to eat it with tea." The maidservant said. "The lady said that the master does not think about eating, so he should eat less and eat more, drink more tea, and drink less alcohol.

Old lady Zhang laughed.

"Say, what do you want?" He asked.

The handmaid laughed too.

"There is a showman, I didn't pass the exam this year, and I have always admired the master, the lady asked. Can you ask the lord for a righteous interpretation? She said.

Old lady Zhang was a little curious and sat upright.

"It's from the Cheng family?" He asked.

The maidservant shook her head.

"That's pretty strange. Will your lady still have such kindness? Mrs. Zhang said with a smile.

"Master." The maidservant shouted with a little disobedience, "My lady has always been very kind. ”

Old lady Zhang laughed.

"Someone." He called.

The girl kneeling at the door of the house was busy responding.

"Go and tell the master and ask him to give Su Xin a book." Old lady Zhang said.

The girl responded, and the maidservant girl also hurriedly got up.

"I'll go with you, although it's because of the old lady's affection, the servant still has to kowtow to the old man to thank you." She laughed.

Old lady Zhang smiled and nodded.

"Take this, give it to the master, and let him explain it to the kitchen." He said.

The girl answered by taking the book.

Seeing the maidservant kowtow under the porch and thank you and get up to leave, Zhang Chun also stood up from the study.

"Master, this..."The girl asked, still holding the notebook handed by the maidservant.

The paper is simply cut, the repair is not neat, and there is no inscription on the cover, which is only seven or eight pages thin.

"Go to Madame, and let her explain to the kitchen." Zhang Chun said and didn't take it to see.

Mrs. Zhang Chun has her own literate girl by her side, and she is not afraid to teach a cook who can't cook.

The girl responded by saying goodbye.

The remnants of winter faded, and the capital in the rain had a different flavor.

Although it was raining, the number of cars and pedestrians at the city gate did not decrease, and it was bustling with people entering and leaving the city.

Because of the rain, Han Yuanchao and the others did not ride horses, but hired two cars, one for three people to sit and one for the scholars to sit on, and their respective horses accompanied them, carrying all kinds of specialties purchased in the capital.

Compared with the full ambition when they came, the three of them looked a little lonely.

"It's okay, I'll come back in three years." Han Wonchao smiled and comforted the other two.

"yes, yes." One of his companions laughed, lifted the curtains, got up and looked out and back, "Look at the gate again." ”

Everyone else laughed before they could speak, when they suddenly heard the voice of their companion.

"Yuan Dynasty, someone has come to see you off." He said, reaching out and pointing back.

The servant girl jumped out of the carriage, not caring about opening the umbrella, panting a little.

"Han Langjun, you actually braved the rain to leave, and you almost missed it." She said.

Han Yuanchao was very surprised, and a little unhappy, anyway, although they met in just a few days, they were also acquaintances in Beijing.

"How dare you work my sister to see her off." He said with a smile.

"I'm here to give a gift." The maidservant said, taking out a book from her bosom.

Han Yuanchao was a little puzzled and stretched out his hand to take it.

Analects.

It is not an unusual book, but it is not a carved print, but a manuscript, small and correct, and the rules are decent.

Han Wonchao's gaze fell on the bottom corner of the cover.

Jiangzhou, Ziran.

This is!

Han Yuanchao's expression changed drastically, and he looked at the maidservant in disbelief.

The handmaid smiled at him and gave him a salute.

"The lady wishes Langjun peace and smoothness." She said.

After that, he didn't wait for Han Yuanchao to speak again, turned around and got into the carriage.

Han Yuanchao came back to his senses and shouted a few times, but still did not stop the carriage from moving away, and he held the book in his hand a little dazed until the rain dripped on it. I came back to my senses. Distressed wipe.

Two companions gathered around. looked at the book in Han Yuanchao's hand in disbelief.

"It was written by Mr. Jiangzhou himself?"

"This, this is only what Chen Xianggong can get, right?"

"No, no, the maidservant said it was a lady."

"I just said that I was going to catch my son-in-law on the list!"

"I didn't get in, so I didn't catch it?"

"Yuan Dynasty, you have to think about your family affairs after you go back."

The two kept talking and laughing, and Han Yuan shook his head with a smile.

"Hugh is going to talk nonsense." "It's just a matter of righteousness." ”

"The Yuan Dynasty, although this time in Beijing failed to enter the first. But you've gained a lot. The companion said, with a complicated face, while reaching out and patting Han Yuanchao's shoulder.

It is suspected that Chen Shao and Chen Xianggong are favored, and they are presented with Mr. Jiangzhou's handwritten explanations, oh, by the way, there is a dry share of the restaurant.

"Just because you came out to help the cook say a few words, you got such good luck, I knew that I would have stood up first." The companions laughed.

"Sure enough, good people have good rewards. We won't dare to laugh at you for being so stupid in the future! The other laughed too.

Han Yuanchao also laughed, smiling and a little puzzled. I couldn't help but look at the city gate, and the handmaiden's carriage and horse were long gone.

Is it just because of that momentary righteousness?

Sure enough, do good people have good rewards?

The maid jumped out of the carriage and ran into the courtyard.

"Sister Banqin." Jin Ge'er said holding an umbrella for her.

The maid smiled and walked into the porch a few steps, but saw Banqin pull open the door and come out, holding a basin rag in her hand, obviously just finished cleaning up the room.

"Sister." Banqin Shili said.

"Is the lady gone?" The maidservant asked, looking in.

"Yes, and ......," Banqin said, but she really didn't know what to call it, that girl was also called Banqin.

"Go to the store with Sister Banqin." Jin Ge'er said.

Although they are all half-celery, they should be able to understand which semi-celery they are talking about.

A thought flashed in his heart, and Jin Ge'er felt dizzy.

"I'll go too." The maidservant said, and immediately turned out, "Rent a car, come back." ”

Watching the maid leave, a trace of envy flashed in Banqin's eyes.

Two and a half celeries, both are doing things for the lady, only themselves....

She looked down at the rag in her hand and took another deep breath.

I'm doing things too!

"Brother Jin, can you help me burn some more charcoal?" She raised her head and said with a smile, "I want to burn the lady's futon so that it doesn't get damp again." ”

The isolated restaurant in the rain outside the city looks even more lonely.

In the empty hall, the low cushions were removed, and Xu Maoxiu and the others sat opposite Cheng Jianniang.

"Is this a plaque to be added to the door?" Xu Mao said in the process of repairing the words pushed by Jiao Niang.

Cheng Jianniang nodded.

Xu Maoxiu unfolded, and the word Taiping was on the square paper.

"I didn't write well a few days ago, but after a few more days of practice, I can take it out." Cheng Jianniang said.

"Good words, good words." Xu Maoxiu said.

Fan Jianglin and other brothers also looked at it, and although they couldn't understand it, they all nodded their heads in agreement.

"Also, ask the cook." Cheng Jianniang said.

Xu Bangmal, who was sitting at the back of the most coquettish, immediately shouted at the top of his throat.

"Big Spoon!"

Fan Jianglin glared at him.

"Shout what to shout! Be quiet, scare your sister. He whispered.

Xu Bangmao smiled and turned his head to look at Cheng Jianniang.

Cheng Jianniang curled the corners of her mouth at him.

"Huh?" Xu Bangmao glared and said, as if he had found something, "My sister is smiling better than before!" ”

Better than before?

What do you mean?

Everyone couldn't help but look at it.

Cheng Jianniang's eyes seemed to be a little surprised, and then she smiled again.

The originally wooden, porcelain-like girl's face suddenly softened, and the corners of her mouth and cheeks showed a graceful arc.

"Lady, you can laugh!" The girl on the side shouted, unable to hold back her tears, "Lady, you are better again." ”

The younger sister is silent and has a wooden expression, Xu Maoxiu and others already know that the Tao is because of her illness, and she is very puzzled that her sister can come back to her senses, but she is helpless about her illness.

"That's great, sister is getting better." They laughed.

"Yes, it will always get better." Cheng Jianniang said, smiling again, "It's getting better and better." ”

Li Dascoo in the backyard reached out to hold his heart and swallowed his saliva.

"The owner called you, go quickly, what are you doing?" The old shopkeeper said.

"Brother, the owner, are you going to fire me?" Li Dasco said with a bitter face, "Look, this business has never worked..."

"If the business is not good, the popularity is not good, and the drunken Fenglou was at the beginning...."The old shopkeeper shook his head and said.

Li Dasco also shook his head, interrupting the old shopkeeper's words.

"You're here again, don't always mention Drunken Phoenix Tower, Drunken Phoenix Tower." He said, while he was happy again, "I shouldn't be dismissed, if I want to be dismissed, I have to dismiss you first." ”

After that, he happily copied his clothes and went forward.

"What words!" The old shopkeeper snorted and shook his head, "At the beginning, Drunken Fenglou also fired you first and then me." (To be continued......)
