Chapter Seventy-One: Two Little Guesses
Zhang Guyuan is a good talker, and when Mama Feng goes out to see off Mother Xu's Tongmoqi, he will bring someone back over there. It just so happened that Mother Li was also serving by Sister Hui'er at that time.
Seeing that Zhang Guyuan was anxious to speak, Xia Shi preemptively said: "What are you doing in such a hurry, although you are not going to learn the music class this afternoon, you should also read in the study, and be careful that your father will beat you when he comes back." ”
When Zhang Guyuan heard this, he bowed his head and bowed, and said, "My mother is right, then the son will go back to the study first." ”
Before leaving, he blinked his eyes slightly at Sister Hui'er, and the fan slapped his palms twice seemingly at random, making a nodding shape. Sister Hui was excited in her heart, afraid that Mr. Li was really looking for it.
As soon as Zhang Guyuan left, she pretended to say something insignificant to the Xia family as if nothing happened, and the two talked for about half an hour, and the Xia family inadvertently instructed Qinglian beside her: "You go and prepare some food, and I will go to see how the Shizi book is reading in person in a while." ”
"Yes." After a while, Qing Lian prepared a cup of lotus soup and a few light snacks and held them to Xia.
"Madam, this lotus flower was just sent from the south this morning, and the cook made a soup at this time, which happened to make the prince calm his mind and taste it, do you want to serve it now?"
"Huh? The godmother actually sent food to Brother Guyuan in person, and she didn't even bring a maid? Sister Hui took the opportunity to ask.
Xia nodded with a smile and took the food box handed by Qing Lian.
"I always don't like people around me to go over together and disturb the peace of Brother Yuan'er's study, but if you want to follow along, you can take a look."
"Hui'er has long heard that Brother Guyuan is very knowledgeable, and she has never seen him study, although Hui'er is stupid and doesn't understand, she also wants to take a look." He smiled and said, got up and followed Xia's side.
Behind him, Mother Wang and Mother Li also asked for it, but they were stopped by Sister Hui waving her hand: "You all stay here, I didn't hear what the godmother just said, if you disturb Brother Guyuan's study, you can't afford it." ”
Mother Wang stopped her steps, and Mother Li glanced at Sister Hui'er with a hesitant face, but Xia's faint eyes drifted by, making her hang her head and stop.
Sister Hui followed Xia to Zhang Guyuan's courtyard.
"Brother Guyuan, is Mr. Li available?" Sister Hui asked as soon as she entered Zhang Guyuan's study.
Zhang Guyuan came out from behind the desk, took out a letter from his wide sleeve, and said: "This is a letter from Mr. Li to you, I took someone out to look for it today, and I found someone, but Mr. Li didn't want to show up, so he only asked me to bring this letter to you." ”
Sister Hui now has a letter from Chu Jinmin on her body, and she hasn't had time to read it yet, but she really looks forward to her father's news, so she hurriedly opened Mr. Li's letter.
She roughly swept it, and Mr. Li told her that everything was fine in northern Xinjiang, and that they had heard a little about their sister and brother, and made an appointment to meet at Qingshui Nunnery on Guanyin's birthday five days later.
"Mr. said that there is a last resort, and he has to set off for the north after half a month, and I am afraid that it will not work to ask Mr. Xuan Ge'er to be the west seat, and I have to work hard for my godmother to go back to this matter."
Hearing this, Xia nodded and agreed: "I see that you should have asked Mr. Li to be Brother Xuan's Xixi before, because Mr. Li's own background is not suitable for being an official, and the old lady is easy to agree, which can be regarded as a coincidence, if I am afraid that I will not be able to find such a suitable one." ”
Zhang Guyuan pondered for a moment, frowned slightly, his fingers seemed to brush the edge of the table, and said slowly: "According to the current situation of Hui'er at home, Mr. Li is indeed the best choice, but what I see today, I see that the slaves around Mr. Li are people in the Three Princes' Mansion, and now I think about it, I am afraid that Mr. Li is already a staff member of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, but it is not suitable to be Mr. Brother Xuan, I can help find out about this matter." ”
Although this dynasty did not explicitly prohibit the criminal ministers from being officials, and the students of the criminal ministers were not allowed to be officials, but when it came to conferring the officials, it was to be criticized. Her move can also be regarded as a gamble, rather than being immortal and wasted in the hands of the old lady like this, it is better to take a chance, if the third prince ascends the throne in the future, Chu Jinmin mediates from it, and then Brother Xuan'er's apprenticeship will not be criticized.
I just don't want Mr. Li to be Chu Jinmin's staff, I think it was because of a coincidence, he had already been introduced by Chu Jinmin to His Royal Highness the Third Prince.
"Brother Guyuan has helped me in this matter, and Hui'er is very grateful." Sister Hui bowed to Xia and Zhang Guyuan.
Xu is side is no one around, Zhang Guyuan saw this and gently reached out and touched Sister Hui'er's bun, Xia Shi looked at it, covered his mouth and smiled, and quipped: "What's the matter?" Do you like this bun that your mother combed for your sister? If you are a girl, your mother will comb it for you immediately. ”
Sister Hui glanced at Zhang Guyuan's embarrassed face and smiled.
"How can Brother Guyuan pat Hui'er on the head?" Sister Hui said angrily.
Zhang Guyuan swept away the embarrassment and said very proudly: "I asked you to laugh at me with my mother, my mother can laugh, but you can't laugh!" ”
"Humph! Brother Guyuan's relatives are different, and Hui'er will leave. Sister Hui got up and was about to leave.
was hurriedly pulled by Zhang Guyuan: "You and your mother are very important in my eyes." ”
"Humph! Brother Guyuan thought so in his heart, but he didn't mean it like this. Sister Hui silently calculated in her heart, she had to take the opportunity to blackmail something and leave.
As she spoke, she pretended to pull the embroidered handkerchief out to wipe her tears.
Zhang Guyuan's face was anxious, a pair of good-looking brows were wrinkled, and his mouth, which had always been kind to words, couldn't spit out, so he had to look at Xia and shouted: "Mother"
Xia has always loved to tease his son, slowly pulled his sleeves, and said: "You call me what to do, your daughter-in-law has to coax herself." ”
Xia's words were faint, but Sister Hui was panicked, and the embroidered handkerchief couldn't be taken down, Zhang Guyuan's face was also flushed, and he pulled Sister Hui'er's sleeve for a while and said: "Hui'er, don't cry, I'm joking, why don't I play a tune for you." ”
Sister Hui didn't want to make any more requests at this time, so she nodded and agreed, only her head was lowered, and she sat next to Xia with a red face.
Zhang Guyuan's usual Konghou was placed on the other side of the study, he walked over a few steps, and was about to play, but suddenly stopped: "Which song do you want to hear?" ”
"Yo, when is it not you fiddling with this thing, or your father and mother have to listen to it with you, you can still order music today, isn't it that the sun is coming out in the west." After Xia finished speaking, he looked at Sister Hui and smiled.
No matter how thick-skinned Sister Hui is, she can't stand it anymore when she burns up at this time.
Whispered response: "It's all good." ”
She happened to touch Zhang Guyuan when she started to talk, but saw that he was also always fair-skinned, and his complexion became crimson, and his handsome facial features were a little bit more delicate than his daughter's family.
Seeing her coming, she raised her head and returned a gentle smile, smiling all the time, closing her eyes slightly, her slender and white but bony fingers fluttering on the wide strings, but Xiao Que can make people enter the artistic conception of the song together.
Sister Hui has also been taught by Mr. Li for a few years, and the Qin family occasionally analyzes, and she also understands that such skills can indeed be called masters.
If you really want to describe the beauty of Zhang Guyuan's sound, then there are only a few extra piles of butterflies outside the window to peek at one or two, and I don't know what kind of music it is, but it sounds pleasant to be physically and mentally, and it is the appearance of the butterfly flying and enjoying it. For a while, there was silence all around, only the sound of immortals.
(There is no code word for a week, and you can give some advice to those who are not happy to see it, Pu Wei will be very grateful, and you can remember to collect it if you like it!) )
