said that over there, Jia Lian led Hongjin and Mo Xuan, the prince of Wujun, to his study. Without waiting to sit down, Wang Shizi of Wujun asked: "I heard that Cousin Ling worshipped Mr. Huang Jiyun as a teacher, and at that time he also held a worship ceremony according to the ancient rites?" Is this true? Obviously, this is a topic that the prince is very concerned about, Jia Lian smiled and said: "It is true to worship Mr. Huang as a teacher, but I only heard about the apprenticeship ceremony, and I didn't come to Beijing at that time." When the prince heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "Mr. Huang is in the house now?" Why don't you see Mr. come out today? Jia Lian said with a smile: "Mr. is less than in the house, he can come to the house for half a month a year, and he mostly comes to teach his cousin once every three or five months, but he is fortunate to be guided by Mr. for a few months." Otherwise, with my qualifications, even if I studied for another eight or nine months, I would not have been able to pass the Tongsheng examination. Speaking of this, Jia Lian is still very complacent. Although Tong Shengshizi doesn't look at it, it is still rare to be admitted after only eight or nine months of study. I couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to meet Mr. I really don't know how beautiful my cousin is, but he has to be favored by Mr. as the only disciple. It's a pity! Jia Lian understood what the prince said before, even he was jealous of his cousin's good luck, but he didn't know what the son was sorry for. When I thought of it, I asked it out of my mouth. Shizi said: "Let my cousin be taught by Mr. Tou, and his knowledge must be excellent, but it's a pity that his daughter can't serve the country, isn't it?" Jia Lian smiled with relief when he heard it.

Here the son and Jia Lian were talking enthusiastically, but Mo Xuan picked up a book on Jia Lian's bookcase and flipped through it, not wanting to just turn a few pages, he saw a small bookmark appear in front of him, the palm-sized leaves only have meridians, and the landscape map is embroidered on it with very fine silk threads between the meridians, and two lines of small characters are embroidered next to it: There is a road diligent path in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea. It is obvious that it motivates Jia Lian to study and make progress. It's very chic and exquisite. Then he took it in his hand and admired it.

It happened that Jia Lian saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time, and he was afraid that he would be snubbed, so he turned around and prepared to talk to him, but he saw him holding a bookmark and playing with him. I didn't know how to react for a while, it was a gift from Daiyu when he was admitted to the Tongsheng Examination, but Daiyu was only more than six years old at the time, and there were not so many men and women, but now Daiyu is about to be seven years old, but how is it good? Jia Lian was secretly anxious in his heart, so he heard Mo Xuan ask: "What a delicate bookmark, I don't know where Brother Lian got it?" When Jia Lian heard this, he was even more anxious and sweating, and suddenly he thought of a set of bamboo leaf sticks he had prepared for Daiyu, and the words on it were still begged by Mr. Huang for a long time, and Mr. Huang wrote it as a reward for being admitted to the child. Although it hurts, it is better than letting Daiyu's things out. So he pretended to be relaxed and said: "It's not a good thing, who remembers where it was obtained." If Brother Xuan likes bookmarks, I have a better one there, you can use it. After saying that, he hurriedly turned around and looked for it. Who knew that Mo Xuan didn't appreciate it and said: "A gentleman doesn't take people's favor, it's just a bookmark, Brother Lian keeps it for his own use, it's good for me." As soon as these words came out, don't talk about Jia Lian, even the prince Hongjin was stunned. Hongjin saw that Jia Lian's face suddenly became ugly, so he took out the bookmark from Mo Xuan's hand, and Mo Xuan saw that his cousin came to pick it up and was afraid that he would break it. Hongjin took a look at it in his hand, and knew that this was a woman's thing, although the thing is not big, but the stitching method is fine, especially the color matching, the distant mountains and near the water are vivid, and the artistic conception of splashing ink landscape is well reflected. The heart is really exquisite! glanced at Jia Lian and saw that Jia Lian's brows were deep and his face was ugly. glanced at Mo Xuan again, but saw that he stared at the bookmark in his hand without turning his eyes, and his head suddenly became bigger. Fortunately, how much exercise did you have to stabilize your mind by King Wujun's side, and said to Mo Xuan: "You still have few bookmarks?" Go back and I'll find a good set for you, and you don't have to be a guest at someone's house and ask for things! After speaking, he didn't care about Mo Xuan's face, so he handed the bookmark to Jia Lian.

Although Jia Lian saw that Mo Xuan's face was about to drip ink, he didn't dare to hesitate at all. I immediately took it and put it in the drawer next to the bookcase. casually took out the set of birthday gifts prepared for Daiyu and handed it to Mo Xuan. Seeing that Jia Lian had already put things away, Mo Xuan just stopped thinking, who knew that Jia Lian really took out a red lacquered nanmu inlaid treasure carved box and handed it to Mo Xuan and said, "This is a good thing!" I begged Mr. Huang for a long time to get it. You take a look first, if you like it, take it, and I will apologize to you. It's not that I'm stingy, to tell you the truth, that's what my cousin did when she was a child, and there is no reason for it to flow out. Hearing Jia Lian's words, Hongjin and Mo Xuangu's eyes lit up, but the former was because of Mr. Huang, and the latter was because it was consistent with what he guessed.

Without waiting for Mo Xuan's reaction, Hongjin had already taken the box and opened it, a set of twelve bookmarks, each with only one word: Zi Chouyin Maochen has not applied for Youxu Hai at noon, it is actually a beautiful thin gold body, and there are very few people who still write this kind of character now. I also saw that the bamboo leaves were also sealed with gold juice, and the plum blossoms were pointed, which was very elegant. couldn't help but look up at Jia Lian, there were doubts in his eyes, and he was reluctant to push the box in front of Jia Lian and asked, "This set of bookmarks Brother Lian didn't ask for himself, right?" This made Jia Lian stunned again, so he was not embarrassed, and quickly reacted: "Anyway, it's a gift, who is not a gift?" Today, I swept Brother Xuan'er's excitement, and I should apologize. After speaking, he picked up the box and handed it to Mo Xuan with both hands, but Mo Xuan smiled: "Fang Cai was the little brother who was abrupt, where is there still a reason to let Brother Lian apologize?" Brother Lian is about to lose my face. As he spoke, he stuffed the box into Jia Lian's arms. Jin Hong saw that the words had been spoken, and remembered that Mo Xuan and Miss Lin had met each other, so he said to Jia Lian: "If Brother Lian really thinks that Brother Xuan has swept away Brother Xuan'er's interest, why don't you invite us to visit the courtyard of the house?" "It's okay for Jia Lian to hear it, I can't stay in my study anymore, Daiyu has sent a lot of things to herself in the past, and I have to take care of it when I go back. So he smiled: "I don't dare to ask for ears" and then made a gesture of please, and the action camera took Lin Ruhai.

The three of them went out of the side yard where Jia Lian was and did not enter the weeping flower gate, but only went up from the side into the outer corridor, and then turned into the garden from the corridor. At this time, many trees in the garden are new species, not very luxuriant, even the original weeping willows are now just budding, but the four seasons roses are very colorful. There is a Taihu Lake stone mountain in the garden, which is not high, but there is a thatched house built on the top of the mountain, Jia Lian saw that Hongjin and Mo Xuan were very interested in where they were, so they led the two of them to where to go.

Walking along the gravel path between the cracks in the stones, three thatched huts stand proudly on top of them, and you can see the whole garden from the front of the thatched huts. The left and right two thatched huts are windowed, leaving only a doorway hole in the middle, on which a plaque of Qingfengju is hung, and the three thatched huts are only separated by half a wall. There is a bamboo table in the middle, and there is a charred wood board on the table, and a small red clay stove is left on it. A few bamboo chairs enclose it in the middle. Behind the half wall on the left and right sides, build a bamboo couch with a height of more than a foot, and there is a straw mat on the couch, and a small bamboo case is placed. There is no redundancy. Even in the place of the window, only the window hole is left without the window sash, and the snow-white light gauze curtain is hung, and it is uncomfortable to lift and fall with the wind.

Hongjin and Mo Xuan walked around inside and out, and the three of them found the bamboo couch on the left and sat down. Hongjin came here to see where Wanyu was, but at this time he sighed: "It's so easy and wanton!" This must be what Mr. Huang likes. "Wanyu has long been left behind. Mo Xuan's heart moved: "It's more elegant than the pavilion, it can be seen that he is a really elegant person, so he is willing to spend so much effort." After speaking, Gu looked at Jia Lian. In fact, the two of them didn't know that Jia Lian was also in the garden for the first time today. Seeing this, Jia Lian smiled bitterly and said, "I've been busy before, so how can I have a little bit of leisure?" Today, it is only through the light of the two brothers that we can know this wonderful place. After speaking, Jia Lian also felt relaxed, and simply no longer cared about any physique and demeanor, and lay directly on the couch with his arms cushioned. Seeing Jia Lian like this, Hongjin and Mo Xuan looked at each other and smiled, and followed Jia Lian to lie down with his arms on his hands.

When Daiyu and Wanyu arrived, they didn't find the three people lying behind the wall. The treatment was to let Shi Nan light a charcoal fire to burn the spring water taken from Daming Temple on it, and asked Zhixuan to go back and get the tea set. I was preparing to listen to the wind and make tea.

The three of them were originally just lying down, but they didn't expect to hear someone coming in, and at this time they were not up, let alone lying down. When I was in a dilemma, I saw a girl wearing an olive short shirt, an orange cotton jacket, a Linghua skirt and a willow-colored sweat scarf walking in with a scarlet woven golden autumn pattern short pile blanket. Jia Lian immediately sat up when he saw a smile. However, he was startled by Hanxiao, summoned his voice to come to his senses, and hurriedly said: "I've seen Young Master Cousin, I've seen Master Shizi, I've seen Young Master Mo." Now they had to sit up together, but their faces were flushed with shame.

Originally, Daiyu didn't care when she heard the laughing voice, but when she turned her head, she saw Jia Lian and the other two sons sitting up from behind half the wall. Daiyu was not only startled, but also anxious in her heart, and stood up with her eyebrows. Daiyu didn't think of herself, but she was worried about ruining Wanyu's reputation, after all, Wanyu was more than two years older than herself, and Jia Lian was a foreigner in the fourteenth or fifteenth five-year period. Although he said this, his eyes kept glancing at Hongjin, and Hongjin Fang remembered his previous plan, but it was a coincidence.

Wanyu didn't wait for Hongjin and the others to answer, so she said to Daiyu: "Sister Yu'er, I'm afraid I don't know, this is my compatriot's brother, that, you have seen it before, I don't need to introduce it again." At this time, Daiyu also reacted, stepped forward in two steps and said deeply: "I have seen the son of the world." At this time, Hongjin was already calmed by Daiyu's appearance, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he only said: "Hurry up, please get up, you don't have to be so polite." Wan Yu smiled: "That's right, there must be so much courtesy there?" Since Yu'er is my sister, she doesn't have to be so polite to her brother. Daiyu didn't answer, only smiled and said to Mo Xuan: "Brother Mo hasn't seen you for a long time." Mo Xuan's face was already red with shame, but this time he was even redder and swallowed for a while before he said, "I don't know if Sister Lin's injury was so good back then?" I've been in Kyori and I haven't had a chance to visit you. "Well, people are still feeling guilty about what happened back then. Daiyu softened her heart when she heard this: "Brother Mo doesn't need to be like this, why mention the past today?" Besides, I'm already fine. Hearing Daiyu say this, Mo Xuan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. After Daiyu finished speaking, she saw Jia Lian standing aside with an awkward face, so she said to Wanyu: "This is my uncle's cousin Lian." He said to Jia Lian again: "This is my newly known sister, the sister of the son." did not mention Wanyu's name, Wanyu was very grateful when she saw this: "Since you have met, you are not outsiders, why don't you sit down and wait to eat your sister's good tea?" As he spoke, he pulled Daiyu to the bamboo table. It wasn't until this time that Hongjin came back to his senses and felt very embarrassed, so he had to sit silently next to Wanyu and not speak, Mo Xuan also sat down next to him, leaving Jia Lian's position on the right side, Jia Lian didn't shirk, and he couldn't let the foreign man sit next to his cousin. In fact, he forgot that he himself is also a foreign man, but after more than a year of getting along, he feels like his own sister.

A few people sat down and talked about this chic thatched house, you and I said all kinds of praise, Daiyu only smiled and waited quietly for the water to open. When they found out, the fragrance of tea was already overflowing, because there were doors and windows on only one side of this house, so the wind blew in, and the fragrance of tea wafted in this house, mixed with the smell of thatch. A few people felt more relaxed. At this time, Daiyu said: "This place was originally specially built for the master to drink tea. Daiyu said that here Hongjin's face has appeared, and he is very satisfied that he guessed correctly. I heard Daiyu continue: "The grass used in this house is half-dried straw, and it also has the fragrance of straw, and when you cook tea here, the tea fragrance is bound to mix with the aroma of straw, this taste master likes it again, but if the taste is too strong but not good, so these three rooms are built according to the west and facing east, and the most windward is not." This is why it was named Qingfeng Ju. I want to come back to the master and I will like it. ”

Everyone drank tea for a while and saw Jin'er hurriedly come in, and saw three men and two women in the house, although there were maids waiting on the side, it was not a proper system, but they knew that all the guests who came today were distinguished guests, so they stabilized their hearts and said: "Girl, Mrs. has set up the table and let the girl lead the county lord over." After speaking, he said to Jia Lian: "The table in front of you has also been arranged, why don't you lead the two masters into the table?" After saying that, he looked down at the ground. Daiyu thought for a while and said, "No wonder I'm a little hungry. In this case, my sister and I will go to my mother's side first, and Cousin Lian will lead Shizi and Brother Mo to my father's side as well, okay? Mo Xuan heard this and immediately said, "Since you feel hungry, hurry over, I want to come and wait for my aunt and Mrs. Lin in a hurry." Daiyu nodded and stood up, Wan Yu also stood up with this, but she didn't want to hear Hongjin say: "Why do you call your sister sister, Brother Guan Xuan is Brother Mo, and Brother Lian doesn't say that it's your cousin, just me as the son of the world?" All of a sudden, several people were stunned, but Daiyu smiled and said: "Brother Shizi thinks a lot, but he just thinks it's not good." After speaking, he smiled and took Wanyu's hand and walked out. At this time, Jia Lian reacted and smiled. Hongjin didn't understand what he was laughing at, so he glared at him, Jia Lian saw this and explained: "When I first arrived in Gusu, I asked my cousin to call me Brother Lian, who knew that my cousin said: 'I don't know, I think I stutter and can't tell the two brothers' I am the second oldest in the family, so I said that it is called the second brother Lian, but the cousin glared at me with eyes and said: 'The two brothers can't say clearly, and the two second brothers!'" Who has two second brothers? After saying that, he left angrily. Today's cousin probably thought of it," Jia Lian also grinned when he said this, at this time Mo Xuan had fully understood, and said with a smile, "Brother on the persimmon tree, isn't it Brother Persimmon?" Hongjin cried all of a sudden, neither laughed, nor was he a little blind.

After eating, Wanyu and Daiyu chatted with Princess Jia Min for a while, and there was a word in front of them that the prince had called back. Wanyu reluctantly said goodbye to Daiyu, and only when she got into the carriage did she find a large brocade box, and when she opened it, she saw a two-foot square embroidered hanging screen. It is Daiyu embroidered in a realistic way of oil painting, in a glass frame, the colors are bright, the layers are clear, the three-dimensional sense is strong, only one Wanyu is already happy. Princess Wujun was also amazed when she saw it on the side.

Below are two small and one large three boxes, open the largest box, inside is a powder blue embroidered white cloud pattern edge smoke Luo yarn inlaid with rabbit fur dress, Wan Yu couldn't help but admire: "My sister is smaller than me, but her hands are so skillful, not only skillful." Princess Wujun asked in surprise when she heard this: "You mean that these are all made by the girls of the Lin family?" Wanyu smiled proudly: "Of course, otherwise I'm not rare." After speaking, his face was full of uncontrollable smiles. He pointed to the hairpin on his head and said: "Mother concubine, you see, this hairpin is the first one carved by my sister, although the jade is not very good, but my sister is ingenious, this carving is more flavorful than flawless jade." "Open a small box and inside it is a set of twelve bookmarks that Mo Xuan and they have seen in Jia Lian's study, but they are embroidered with twelve flowers, which are also vivid. The other box contained a vivid little puppeteer, wearing a wide-sleeved shirt and a pomegranate skirt, with an embroidered lotus belt tied on it, and a hair made of black silk threads was coiled high on the top of her head. At the bottom of the brocade box is a goose yellow square cushion, which is a big-eyed baby cushion that I have forgotten. Wan Yu pulled it out and hugged it in her arms, and said to Princess Wujun: "My sister gave me a lot of good things, but I don't know what to give in return." After speaking, he didn't see a sad face, but smiled without seeing his eyebrows. Princess Wujun also had to sigh that Zhenzhen'er had never seen a smarter girl than this. Thinking of her words and deeds, she was polite and polite, and I didn't feel even more happy in my heart. Even if he and Jia Min met late, they talked very happily, but it was a pity that if it weren't for Lin Ruhai's delicate position now, he could have a good relationship with this family. Princess Wujun didn't know what to think in her heart, Wanyu didn't know. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that tomorrow was Daiyu's seventh birthday, and she was thinking about what kind of chic gift she wanted to give. Thinking about whether to tell Mo Xuan again? Thinking about it, Mo Xuan should make up for the events of the year and give a gift, whether it is to congratulate the birthday or apologize, even if he is his sister, he should also ask Mo Xuan for his sister. Thinking about it, Mo Xuan should not be so stingy as to oppose it. I couldn't help but laugh when I thought about it. Princess Wujun glanced at Wanyu and closed her eyes to recuperate, thinking that Wanyu was still rejoicing in those exquisite gifts, thinking of the tube of flower tea she received, she seemed to have some taste and felt that it was not worth mentioning. I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth.
