Chapter 22: The Dark Fragrance Floats

There is no snow today, and someone must have cleaned the courtyard, and there is no snow. The sky is exceptionally blue when it has snowed www.biquge.info and the sunlight shines on the inky hair of the scene, shining dazzlingly. Jing Shang wore a white cape with a fur collar today, and he was still wearing cyan clothes inside.

After he finished handling the puppy, he carefully put the puppy into a bamboo basket padded with cotton cloth, and then saw Zhan Ying standing in the courtyard gate, he smiled slightly, like the beginning of a cloud.

Zhan Ying approached him and asked curiously, "Since you are so loving to small animals, why do you have to save people?" ”

Jing Shang glanced at the basket where the puppy was located with compassion, and said to Zhan Ying: "The mother of this puppy was beaten to death, and the puppy was bitten off by other wild dogs in order to forage for food. He sighed softly, "How pitiful it is to not have the protection of my mother." And killing the mother of the puppy is so bad. People cherish their lives, but they don't know that everything in the world has a cause and effect. I saw their causes, and that's why I saved them or didn't save them. ”

Zhan Ying said: "I don't think God will give a person a talent casually, he must want people to use this talent to benefit the common people, although people are good and bad, but there is no difference in life." This was told to her by his father, who fought on the battlefield and guarded all the people in the country, both high and low.

Jing Shang was noncommittal, did not answer her words, and only asked her: "What book are you borrowing today?" Zhan Ying told him that he was interested, and it was necessary to learn the knowledge of institutions to protect himself.

Jing Shang smiled and said, "Don't you want to find Mo Li to help you?" ”

Zhan Ying raised his head and said proudly: "Others can only help me for a while, only I can rely on it for a lifetime." ”

Jing Shang shook his hand and said: "Okay, it's rare for a woman to have such arrogance, you can borrow Qing Yao's book at will." ”

Zhan Ying was pleasantly surprised: "So many books are available?" Unconditional? ”

Seeing her so happy, Jing Shang smiled and said, "It's okay, unconditionally." Then his face was slightly grim, "But to pay it back." ”

Zhan Ying felt that she had taken a big advantage, but the futility still made her feel uneasy. "That's it, you have so many books here, there are always damaged and broken ones that need to be repaired and copied, and I will come to help when I have time, and I can be regarded as repaying some favors, how about it?"

Jing Shang knew that she was strong and didn't want to accept kindness easily, so he agreed.

After a while, Zhan Ying got up to go back, and Jing Shang walked with her to a plum tree outside the courtyard and called the scholar to accompany her to pick up books. Zhan Ying was just about to take a step, and Jing Shang called her" and so on. ”

Jing Shang took off his cloak and tied it for Zhan Ying, the movements on the scene were gentle, the dark fragrance of plum blossoms floated, and Zhan Ying could see the flawless face of the jade carving on the scene when he raised his head slightly. Zhan Ying felt like a butterfly flapping its wings gently in her heart, difficult to notice, but slightly itchy.

"By the way, what about Moli?"

Jingshang's fingers froze slightly, "He doesn't like to be in front of people." ”

Zhan Ying walked with the scholar to the front hall of Qingyao, and when she reached the end of the corridor, she looked back, and the cyan figure was still standing under the plum tree, and her face could not be seen clearly.

Zhan Ying's heart was slightly sour, Jingshang was actually as lonely as Mo Li...... seems to be gentle and kind to everyone, but in fact, it rejects people thousands of miles away.

Zhan Ying picked up three books in the area of organ science, "Shuzang", "Tiangong Kaiwu", and "Qimen Dunjia", and handed them to the shopkeeper for registration before leaving.

The full days always fly by, and in the blink of an eye, it has been the twenty-fourth of the lunar month, the small year. The camp began to take annual leave on the 24th day of the lunar month, and did not restart work until the end of the Shangyuan Festival. The only exiles left in the camp were the exiles who could not leave, and the few laborers like Tie Bull who were alone and too far from home.

Zhan Ying had already finished reading those three books, and sometimes he poured some utensils from all over the place to make small tricks and small objects. She thought about refining it a little more, so she drew some drawings and asked Brother Tie Niu to help make a bigger mechanism.

Li Fugui and the Li family had nowhere to go, so they still lived in the camp. Because today is a small year, I invited Zhan Ying and Tie Niu to make dumplings together for the festival. Zhan Yingji was going to return the book today, and by the way, she picked a few more books to read, and Li told her to come back early. Zhan Ying took three books with him, and before leaving, he saw the washed and folded cloak, and after thinking about it, he also brought it.

When Zhan Ying arrived in Qingyao, he returned the three books to his uncle, picked a few more, and agreed with his uncle to help him repair and transcribe the books every day during the holidays. handed the cloak to the uncle and asked him to return it to Jingshang, and the uncle's expression was obviously a little surprised. Before Hou Zhanying took the book and was about to go out, he saw that the shopkeeper looked a little speechless, so he stopped, "Uncle shopkeeper, what is the difficulty for you?" ”

The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, and then said with determination, "Childe, I have been here in Qingyao for three years, and in the past three years, except for me and the scholar, only you have stepped into the backyard, presumably the pavilion master treats you extraordinary." Every New Year's Festival, everyone is with their relatives and friends, but our pavilion master is alone. Forgive me for taking the liberty of this year, when you come to copy the book every day, can you go and see our pavilion master? ”

Zhan Ying hesitated a little: "Whether you can enter the backyard or not, it has to be decided by your pavilion master, right?" ”

The shopkeeper uncle immediately replied: "The last time the prince came, the pavilion master had already sent someone to order me, this Qingyao's book was chosen by the son, and the backyard was also free for the son to come and go." ”

Zhan Ying hurriedly said: "Jing Shang has the grace to save my life, but I have to be entrusted by my uncle to think that I should have brought gifts to the door during the New Year and thanked the benefactor." I'm ashamed. "This is the etiquette of Yasukuni, Zhan Ying is not ignorant, but the scene is very human, she does not dare to disturb at will and destroy his tranquility.

The shopkeeper uncle bowed his hand: "Lao Yan has thanked the son." ”

Zhan Ying suddenly asked, "Do you see that your pavilion master has always been alone?" What about Moli? ”

Lao Yan looked a little puzzled: "Except for the pavilion master, Lao Yan has never seen anyone else in the backyard. Xu is because I don't live in the backyard, and I go back to my home every day when Qingyao closes the door. ”

Zhan Ying was also a little confused, but remembering Mo Li's indifferent appearance, and Jing Shang said that he didn't like to be in front of people, she knew that it must be Mo Li's deep residence and difficult to meet.

Jingshang told her to go in and out of the backyard at will, and since she is here today, it is a small year, so why not go and see Jingshang.

Thinking of this, Zhan Ying took the book and went directly to the back of the wooden wall, and stepped into the corridor. Merlin, who only arrived at the courtyard today, had already seen the scene, he was sitting at Merlin's stone table, holding a copy of the "Nine Classics of Eastern Medicine" and reading, when he heard footsteps, he looked up, and there was no surprise.

Zhan Ying was not a person who twisted and restrained, and sat down on the stone chair opposite him without waiting for Jing Shang to speak, Jing Shang smiled and asked, "Are you here to return the book so soon?" Zhan Ying only said: "It's just that I have a good memory, I just read the strong memory first, and I haven't understood it yet." ”

With a smile on the scene, the plum blossoms in the plum forest are discolored, and only the dark fragrance floats.
