Chapter 338 A Visitor in the Rain

The winter rain really came as promised, and after living in Xutang Town for a few days, the heavy rain suddenly came, although it was a symbol of cloudy clouds that came for a few days, but I didn't expect such a big formation.

There is no rainy or rainy appearance as imagined, but the fine rain is like a silk thread, constantly falling, from small to large. It's only been three days, and the small pond in the back alley is already full.

Such heavy rain caused great resistance to the construction of the embankment, so the government recruited some people from among the villagers, and the team was much larger than before. He also urged the people and river workers to work hard, and it was not very delayed for a while. Fortunately, in those days when the rain had not yet fallen, many sections of the river had been dug up, and only a few places remained. On the other side, the repair of the embankment is also going on at the same time, so it is not completely unprepared.

Guo Lin was too busy at this time, so he didn't see him again for several days in a row. The kind of shovel that Chunyu mentions has been made by blacksmiths, and a batch of not very delicate ones came out first, but they are much better than ordinary shovels, and they are directly of great help.

But the days of Chunyu here are not too boring, she has suddenly become obsessed with playing the network recently, this southern network is more fine, although it is time-consuming to weave, but after completion, it is much better than the previous spring peach weaving. So she followed Yun'er and began to learn to tie the strings, using all kinds of brightly colored silk threads or strings to weave various patterns, which was not boring.

In the blink of an eye, it was Laba, and when I got up in the morning, Chunyu and Yun'er boiled Laba porridge together. During this Laba Festival, there is no difference between the south and the north, and they all eat Laba porridge. However, the ingredients in the Laba porridge here are very rich, such as the main ingredients alone are Jiang rice, barley rice, wheat rice, sorghum rice, barley rice, millet, etc., and then add some auxiliary materials, such as peas, kidney beans, mung beans, black beans, flower beans, red beans, peanuts, large kidney beans, lotus seeds, chestnuts, etc., and then put some honey or rock sugar when boiling the porridge, but it is fragrant and sweet.

Today's rain seems to be lighter, so Chunyu plans to let Yun'er go to the mansion to see if Guo Lin is there, and if he is not busy, let him come to the house to drink porridge.

As a result, Yun'er was wearing a coat here, and when she was about to go out with an oil-paper umbrella, she saw a carriage coming from the door.

Chunyu heard Yun'er calling her, so she took an umbrella and went to the gate, but she saw Guo Lin get off the carriage first, and then held the umbrella, and took out a woman wearing a silver gray embroidered green calyx cloak from the carriage. It wasn't until the two of them arrived at the door that they saw her clearly. Not very beautiful but expensive in delicate, with the unique gentle and delicate facial features of Jiangnan women, almond eyes, shallots, nose, small mouth, pointed chin. There is no decoration on the black hair except for a begonia hairpin, and the whole person is elegant and tight. After Chunyu looked at it carefully, she felt that this woman was a little familiar, but she couldn't remember it.

"Chunyu, I have a reluctant invitation to come here today." Guo Lin said to Chunyu with some embarrassment.

"Let's talk about it in the house first, I just boiled Laba porridge, you and ...... This girl just tasted it. Chunyu didn't think much about it anymore, anyway, she would be able to know who this girl was in a while.

After a few people entered the house, Chunyu accompanied Guo Lin and the woman to sit in the living room, and Yun'er went to the stove to be busy serving porridge. Of course, it was time for lunch, so in addition to Laba porridge, other foods were made, and Yun'er prepared them one by one and served them.

As early as when Yun'er went to the stove just now, Guo Lin had already explained the reason, and the girl's identity was also introduced, and Chunyu knew that she was really someone she knew, but she was not very familiar with it.

It turned out that this woman was Guo Lin's mentor when he was in Moshan, Liu Juren's daughter Liu Yiting. A few years ago, at the lotus banquet in the Zhou Mansion, Chunyu met her, but she forgot it for too long, but now she remembered it again.

As for why Liu Yiting, who should be in Moshan, came here, the reason has to start from two months ago. Two months ago, Guo Lin wrote a letter to his husband, Liu Juren, who was far away in Moshan, about the good news of his high school, but he did not receive a reply. Later, he learned that Liu Juren took his daughter to visit relatives in the Jiangnan area, and Liu Juren's wife, who died early, that is, Liu Yiting's mother Liu Wu, was a person from Jiangnan, and this time Liu Juren took his daughter back to Liu Wu's maiden home.

A few days ago, when Liu Juren took his daughter back, he heard about Qiantang, and he actually knew that his powerful student Guo Lin was in high school to explore flowers, and he was also appointed to supervise the repair of the Qiantang River dam. So I thought that before going back, I would go to see my students first, so I went around and came to Qiantang again.

As soon as I arrived here, I encountered heavy rain, so I couldn't rush back for a while. So the father and daughter were ready to stay here until the rain stopped and then went back to Moshan. Of course, Guo Lin would not let his mentor who came to see him live in the inn, so he let his mentor live with him. Just to avoid suspicion, Liu Yiting couldn't live there, but she didn't worry about letting her stay in the inn, so she wanted to ask Chunyu to help and let Liu Yiting disturb her house for a few days.

After hearing this, Chunyu agreed without thinking, there are many people and it is lively, besides, Yun'er lives in the ear room, and the guest room in the west chamber is still empty. So after eating, he immediately asked Yun'er to clean up, and asked Liu Yiting to put the little gift baggage in.

As for Guo Lin, he was busy with official business, so he didn't stay here longer, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye to the two.

Liu Yiting is very shy, and she doesn't talk much, and the impression of Chunyu on the first side in the depths of her memory is still faintly there, so Chunyu doesn't feel anything. It's just that in the afternoon, Chunyu and Yun'er were talking, and Liu Yiting just watched quietly from the side and didn't speak. Fortunately, in order not to make her restrained, from time to time Chunyu would ask her a few words, her current life, or her hobbies on weekdays, and she answered in a soft voice.

Although she looks very easy to get along with, Chunyu is very stressed, this Liu Yiting basically doesn't take the initiative to speak, and it's too quiet to be too much. It's too easy to get along with, but it makes people think that she is very scared of life, as if she is being bullied. But Chunyu just thought about it, of course she knew that Liu Yiting didn't feel bullied, this was due to other people's temperament, and others were helpless.

It's just that the friendship of the landlord of Chunyu is a little tired, but fortunately, it is estimated that there will be no chance to meet in the future, and this time it is only for a few days...... (To be continued.) )
