Chapter 4 Lay the foundation for your future
86_86270Qin Mengdie was a little embarrassed about her faux pas: "I'm sorry, this son misunderstood, I think about things alone, it's not for you, sorry for disturbing me." ”
The older man didn't speak, he looked at Qin Mengdie expressionlessly, his resolute and handsome face was a little cold, and his deep eyes seemed to be separated by a layer of mist, which made people unable to see clearly but wanted to analyze, Qin Mengdie felt her heart stop beating for a moment, and then avoided her gaze, she said that she would not be tempted by any man, but this man's eyes seemed to have a kind of magic that people couldn't help but pay attention to.
The young man still had a warm smile on his face: "Then I misunderstood Childe, I invited you tonight." ”
Qin Mengdie shook her head with a smile: "It's useless, the son is polite, you can continue to eat, I won't bother." In fact, Qin Mengdie knew in her heart that she was laughing at others, so she didn't want to say much, not to mention that she didn't want to cause any trouble when she came out dressed as a man for the first time.
The young man said apologetically, "Then we're welcome." He talked to the older man again.
Qin Mengdie herself was not hungry, she just wanted to taste the dishes, and felt that the time to come out was not short, so she took out the silver, called Xiao Er to settle the account, and said goodbye to the two sons and returned to her dream house.
Climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard, Shui Ling stood at the door of the room and paced back and forth, it seemed that he was waiting for himself, Qin Mengdie felt warm in his heart, maybe this little girl was the one who really cared about him, but think about his younger brother, he should go and see it when he has time, it must be the blood relatives of the original body.
Shui Ling saw Qin Mengdie striding up to meet him: "Miss, but the slave and maid are in a hurry, we haven't been separated for so many years, I really don't feel at ease when you go out by yourself, haven't you encountered anything?" ”
"Don't worry, I know in my heart, the two of us are about the same age, I can still lose it, you don't have to worry about me so much in the future, I am not the young lady before, from now on we have to start a new life."
Shui Ling was a little happy and a little excited: "Miss, I believe in you, I will listen to you for everything." ”
Qin Mengdie observed his yard at this time, leaning against the northwest corner of the mansion, the generally good yards are in the southeast, it seems that he is really unpopular, fortunately, there are courtyard walls on both sides of this courtyard, and it is convenient to go out, that is, if there are bad people coming in, he is the most unsafe, and he lives in the main house.
The west side room is the next person to live, there is a small warehouse, the east side is a side room is also considered a guest room is temporarily empty, and there is a small kitchen on the side. The management is not large, and the five sheets are all in place. There is an osmanthus tree near the gate, it blooms immediately in autumn, and there is a grape trellis by the east wall of the yard, the layout is good, and I like it.
Let Shui Ling prepare bath water, soak in the petal bath comfortably, sit in front of the window while drying her hair, while looking at the night, the air in ancient times is not polluted, and the fresh smell reminds her of her grandfather's house in the countryside when she was a child, when there were many friends, climbing mountains and rivers every day.
Behind the school is the mountain, climb the mountain early in the morning before the high school entrance examination to memorize the syllabus, at that time there was a boy with his crush, his own little dreams, unrestrained.
After graduating from college, I was assigned to the border and it is a less polluted place, I can breathe fresh air every day, I have my own love, I think that's what I'm pursuing, but it's a nightmare, and this nightmare hasn't woken up, I may have died in my previous life, so I have to live well now, for the past life and for this life, a soul is alive for two people, so I have to live better.
Dried his hair, lying on the bed, no sleep, I don't know what time it is, this is a few more I am also confused, there are a lot of things to learn, there is nothing in this backward era, I just found a few books to see, fortunately I can understand, the management is traditional characters, but I can vaguely distinguish, it seems that I have to practice calligraphy and literacy these days, otherwise I can't understand the recipe how to order? She half-leaned on the head of the bed, flipping through the book and reading, not knowing when she fell asleep.
I was woken up by Xiaoxiao early the next morning, and Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Mengdie at the head of the bed: "Mother, it's time to get up and practice swords." ”
Qin Mengdie didn't know what time it was, he used to have the problem of being lazy in the morning, and he had a bit of a messy life in this dynasty where he couldn't figure out the time, looking at the sun seemed to have just risen, plus it was autumn, it should be around six o'clock, it was really early, but there was no entertainment in ancient times, he went to bed early at night, got up early in the morning, got up and put on his clothes, stretched his waist and smiled and smiled in the yard to practice sword and boxing until eating.
After breakfast, Shan Xing took the dirty clothes to wash, and Sister-in-law Li slipped out to chat with a few mothers-in-law outside, helping the eldest aunt collect intelligence. Qin Mengdie called Shui Ling to the inner room.
After closing the door, Qin Mengdie said to Shui Ling: "I have something I want to do now, but we can't let Sister-in-law Li know, so what can we do to invite Sister-in-law Li out of our yard without others suspecting it?" ”
"It wasn't easy before, but now my aunt is not wary of us at all, it shouldn't be difficult, but we have to think of a perfect solution." Shui Ling nodded confidently and replied.
"Well, this matter really has to be discussed in the long run, otherwise it will be easy to leak my changes, and it will be difficult to do something when there is more trouble, let's both think about what to do these days, by the way, you will let Shanxing come to my room for a trip, I have something to find her."
Shui Ling is a sensible person, and he doesn't ask much about the master's affairs, so he walked out, and a cup of tea Kung Fu Shan Xing came in, Qin Mengdie sat at the desk and motioned her to close the door, Shan Xing closed the door and came over and gave a salute: "What do you command?" ”
Qin Mengdie took a sip of tea and said, "Don't be polite, I invited you over today because I have something to ask for?" ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Shan Xing's eyes, and then she was a little uneasy: "Miss's words have tormented the slave maid, I don't know if the slave maid did something wrong?" ”
Qin Mengdie stood up: "You are too worried, I want to beg you to teach me to write, you know that I have been addicted to martial arts all these years, but I must be a woman, and I am not too young, and my mind should be closed, but you also know my status in this backyard, and I don't want to attract the attention of others, so I want to worship you as a teacher in private." ”
Qin Mengdie knew that the status of teachers in ancient times was very high, so she didn't stand up, and she also wanted Shanxing to be completely on the same team as herself, so it was also a gentle policy, of course, learning to write and read was also true.
Shan Xing was a little flattered, and was a little puzzled by this young lady who had always been very indifferent and silent: "What Miss said is true?" ”
"Yes, but privately you are my teacher and I will respect you, but externally I hope it is a secret between the two of us." Qin Mengdie looked at Shan Xing's eyes firmly.
A long-lost smile leaked on Shan Xing's face: "Thank you, Miss, the slave is willing, Miss trusts the slave, and the slave swears to death." This is a show of loyalty to Qin Mengdie.
Qin Mengdie was very happy, but there was not much expression on her face, she must not be the fourteen-year-old little girl, retaining a certain amount of majesty would make the other party more convinced: "Then from today onwards, after you go out after breakfast every day, Sister-in-law Li will come to my room for two hours, do you think it's okay?" Of course, I don't call you a teacher in private, so as not to have ears and tongues on the wall, but in my heart you will always be my teacher, and if there are no outsiders, don't call yourself a slave, which is also my respect for you. ”
Shan Xing looked at the young lady in front of her, and felt completely different from before, the previous young lady was almost the same as herself, with empty eyes, no thoughts, and despair of everything, this similarity was also the reason why she was willing to stay in the Dream Seeking Academy.
But today she saw hope in the eyes of the young lady, and the temperament exuded by the young lady was definitely not the breath of a little girl, calm and powerful, which convinced her very much, and she deliberately avoided Sister-in-law Li to prove that she trusted herself. She didn't say politely, "Okay, I won't disappoint Miss." ”
Saying that Qin Mengdie prepared paper, pen and books, Shan Xing did not twist, and taught her attentively, she is not a person without knowledge, she must have graduated from college, so she learns very quickly, and there are also brush writing classes in primary school, so it is not so difficult to learn.
The book of ancient literature looks a little difficult, but over the years, he has studied the art of war and dabbled in ancient literature, and his comprehension ability is okay, plus hard work, he learned a lot of things in the morning, seeing that Sister-in-law Li was about to come back to make lunch, Shan Xing retreated, and Qin Mengdie took the sword and played again in the yard to avoid people's eyes.
After lunch, Qin Mengdie sat on the rattan chair under the grape trellis, it was the season when the grapes were just ripe, some of them had become completely purple and black, and the ones with the sun on their backs were still shy green, she stretched out her jade-like fingers, picked a grape, and put it in her mouth, the slight sourness made her frown.
She stood up and walked to the osmanthus tree, looked up at the budding osmanthus flowers on the tree, inhaled her nose hard, and a fragrance warmed her whole body, and said casually: "Why do you need light blue and dark red, it is the first class in the flower." ”
Shui Ling was walking over with tea, and was a little surprised to hear Qin Mengdie's poetry: "The first time I listened to Miss's poetry, it's so good, Miss, you are really different from before." ”
"People always have to change, otherwise how can they adapt to the environment of survival?" Qin Mengdie didn't move and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Shui Ling nodded thoughtfully, and stood aside, feeling that Qin Mengdie's aura was so strong that he didn't know what to say. Qin Mengdie didn't speak anymore, quietly enjoying the scenery in front of her
