With Shen Rouning's ice and snow intelligence, he shouldn't have thought of this.

What Qin Xu wanted to know was why the Chen family and her didn't do this. And when he asked such a question, Qin Xuergen was also a little feverish. This feeling gives him an incredible freshness, which seems to be extraordinarily interesting.

Shen Rouning was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then said calmly: "As the saying goes, when a woman marries, it is like being reincarnated again. How can you easily agree? As for me, the reason why I don't want to enter the palace to enjoy the wealth and glory is because of the word freedom. And in these two words, many times, the difference between entering the palace and not entering the palace is not very big. Once you enter the house, it is difficult to get out of the second door......"

Xu was because he had already revealed a lot in front of Qin Xu, and probably felt that Qin Xu was not the one who despised her age and despised her status as a woman, so he confided in his heart.

Although entering the palace is not free of all kinds of hypocritical struggles, but if you get married, not to mention how high-ranking and big-eyed, you are an ordinary rich and noble family, and there is less intrigue in the inner house? Moreover, the women of the inner house and the women of the inner house have to be content with the inner house, and they cannot come and go from their hearts. If it weren't for the fact that Master Shen Si came to Zhoushan County as an official, and he was dedicated to his wife's wishes, how could Mrs. Shen Si have the opportunity to enjoy the magnificent scenery of Buddha in Putuo Mountain?

Although Shen Rouning was reluctant to enter the palace at the moment, she was also unwilling to easily set a lifelong future for herself.

Qin Xu nodded thoughtfully, didn't continue to ask, chatted a few words, and left.

After agreeing on this matter, there was no need for Shen Rouning to continue living in Ningbo City. In the midst of these days of waiting. She has already experienced the customs and customs of Ningbo City, and she can see how gorgeous and colorful the lakes and mountains will be in this autumn when she looks at the city.

Shen Zhou is the most useful person around Shen Si Master, and after Shen Rouning and his party found a temple to help, they let him go back to Zhoushan County. She herself was in no hurry to go back.

As she feared, perhaps in three or five years' time, she would not have the free time she has now. After talking to Qin Xu, she cherished such a good time.

“…… The valley is a maple forest dyed with frost, bright as gild, bright as an open fire. It's gorgeous. The view makes people breathe and is shocking and unforgettable. My daughter wanted to paint the beautiful scenery on the end of the pen, but she couldn't find the paint she wanted, and she regretted it......"

“…… The Taoist temple has an immortal chief. The Tao is profound. He is especially good at Dandao. The cinnabar it makes is like a treasure. I sincerely consulted for a few days before I impressed the immortal chief and got him to teach the mysteries...... Daughter envisioned. In this world, the pigment is specialized, one is in the dyeing workshop, the other is in the ceramics, and my daughter has the heart to explore, but I don't know ......"

When Qin Xu, Chen Houji, and Ji Tong met again on this day to discuss the plan, and by the way, they went to Shen Rouning, who was practicing in the Taoist temple by the lake, to testify, Shen Rouning rolled up her sleeves and was grinding a rusty red stone on the stone mill. A book rested on a stone bench beside her. She was so focused and so hard that in the late autumn and late August, when the weather had cooled down, a hot fine sweat broke out on her smooth forehead.

Hongying and Chaoyan are also busy with their own work.

The late autumn sun shone on the whitening ground in the small courtyard, as if it had turned all this into a layer of golden light, which made people can't help but suspect that what they saw in front of them was not real.

Chen Houji's feet were raised, but he couldn't cross the threshold like this, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and muttered, "Are we in the wrong place?" ”

As soon as he spoke, Shen Rouning heard the movement and looked over.

Shen Rou Ning saw the three of them stop at the door, looking shocked, she couldn't help pursing her lips slightly, put down the stone pestle, wiped her forehead with a handkerchief, stood up, and greeted with a smile: "Cousin Ji, Xu Shao, Ji Shao...... How did you find it? ”

Her cheeks were stained with a red glow, as if she was a little shy, which was particularly eye-catching.

Qin Xu stepped into the small courtyard first, glanced at the small courtyard, and said with a smile: "In the past few days, Chen Erxiu and I have been on vacation, and I just want to discuss some plans with Ji Tong again. Thinking that Cousin Ning, you are also one of us, and you are not too far away from the neighborhood, so I came over. ”

"Unexpectedly, Cousin Ning happened to be busy." Qin Xu had already walked to the edge of the stone table as he spoke, his eyes swept over the book, and he suddenly saw the words "cinnabar" and "calcination", and then looked at the red stone that Shen Rouning was grinding, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Cousin Ning, this is ......?"

"Oh, I'm trying to make some paint." Shen Rouning did not shy away from it, and said: "I was fortunate to see the maple forest in the mountains before, and I suddenly felt that the pigments used in Danqing now could not meet what I thought, so I thought about starting to study it myself." Even just figuring out some of these truths can be very rewarding. ”

When embroidering women's red, it is necessary to match the color, and the painting should be matched with the color.

As far as today's painting style schools are concerned, and the colors are ...... Shen Rouning felt that it was too monotonous and quiet, and some were not lively and gorgeous enough. If she knows more about the various pigments, she will definitely be able to mix colors that are more suitable for her heart.

She loves to draw and doesn't have any reason for it. Therefore, she is only willing to follow her own heart's mind and does not mind how others see her paintings. So I don't mind what others think of what she's doing now.

Chen Houji came back to his senses and looked at Shen Rou Ning and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Ji Tong was not so familiar with a few people, especially when Qin Xu was there, he was still a little restrained now, and he actually changed his previous exaggerated and funny temperament, and he would not speak at this time.

Only Qin Xu was surprised when he heard this, and then said, "What Cousin Ning said is very reasonable. It's just that dyes obtained from ores, such as dansa mercury, are usually poisonous. When Cousin Ning handles it, you must be careful. ”

"Thank you for the reminder." Shen Rouning nodded in response to Qin Xu's kindness, and said to a few people: "...... Please sit down for a moment and I'll clean up. ”

Even if she is dressed as a Taoist child now, she is not as delicate and exquisite as the lady in the boudoir, but when a guest comes, she also needs to clean up and freshen up before she can serve tea to the guests.

Shen Rou Ning led the two maidservants into the house to clean up themselves, and Qin Xu and the three of them sat down around the stone table in the courtyard. The Taoist temple is not big, and the small courtyard that can be set aside for Shen Rouning and a few people to live in is even smaller, but some bamboo is planted in the corner, and other decorations are made.

But if the courtyard gate is wide open, you can see the distant mountains and green daisies, the lake and the clear water are beautiful, and everywhere you can see, it is all a great scenery, which makes people feel extremely happy. (To be continued......)
