Chapter 118: The Wandering Monk (1)
85_85563Xia Qingyun stood up and looked out the window, there was a tall man standing behind the maid, judging from his clothes, he looked like a merchant from other places, but if he looked closely, that person was tall and calm, and he was by no means an ordinary businessman.
The maid led the man into the study, and the man took out a letter from the boot, Xia Qingyun recognized the envelope at a glance as Si Hongbowen's handwriting, and was overjoyed, and said, "Is it okay for your son-in-law to come in?" ”
"Childe is all right," he bowed slightly, took out two bamboo tubes, one large and one small, from the blanket on his shoulder, put them on the table, and said: "This is given to Miss by Childe, and I have to hurry, so I will leave first." ”
Xia Qingyun closed the door and couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.
Unlike in the past, Si Hongbowen's letter was written very long, and it can be seen from the handwriting that the letter was written several times. At the beginning, he talked a little about the situation in the southwest, and then he poured out his feelings for her, and Xia Qingyun, who watched it, blushed and heartbeat.
After reading it several times in a row, she put down the letterhead, picked up the small bamboo tube on the table, and shook it gently, and there was a fluttering sound from inside.
"Messenger Bird?" Her heart was hot, it must be that Si Hongbowen was afraid that she was in a hurry, and Zhiqiu was not around, so he gave her the news bird from the shadow gate, which shows that although he has only heard the news for so long, he still cares about himself as before.
I picked up another large bamboo tube, but it was empty. She took a closer look and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, this turned out to be a tea tube with a bouquet of garlands engraved on it, she guessed that this must have been made by Si Hong Bowen himself.
Why give yourself a tea cone? She looked at the bouquet of flowers, and suddenly remembered that early morning in Qingyun Tea Garden last year, he hid behind a big tree and gave herself a bouquet of rainbow colors and a fiery kiss, and a red cloud suddenly flew on his face.
Remember then. He was not yet injured, and he told her to leave for a while and marry her when he returned. Didn't he use the flowers on this tea tube to remind himself not to forget the promise of that day?
Xia Qingyun's heart was sweet, he folded the letterhead carefully, picked up the bamboo tube containing the messenger bird and flashed into the Ruyi Treasure Pavilion.
"Qingguo, help me make a bird cage!"
She didn't know why the bird was holding in the small bamboo tube. No eating, no drinking. However, I won't need it for a while, and I don't understand its habits. It wouldn't be a pity if he died.
Qingguo moved quickly, and after a while, he brought a delicate birdcage.
She once flown for Si Hong Bowen once, and knew that this bird was extremely fast. It's such a big space, if it flies away, it's hard to catch it again. Carefully align the door of the birdcage. Opening the bamboo tube, the snow-white bird fluttered its wings and jumped into the cage.
The messenger bird was clearly not well adapted to the new environment, and rushed up and down in the cage, trying to fly out.
"What a cute little bird. Sister Qingyun, where did you get it from? Cher jumped over and teased her fingers into the cage.
Xia Qingyun smiled and knocked her hand away. "Be careful, don't scare it! I don't know how to raise it when someone else gave it. ”
"Leave it to me!" Cher patted her chest and reassured. "I catch bugs every day and give them to eat. Hmm, it's snow-white, so let's call it Xiaoxue, okay? Xiaoxue, what kind of bugs do you like to eat? ”
Cher muttered to herself in the cage, and strangely enough, the bird listened to her words, fell quiet, fell over, tilted its little head, and stared at Cher with little black bean-like eyes, jumped two more steps, jumped to the edge of the cage, and pecked Cher fingers with her beak.
"Wow, it got it!" Xue'er shouted excitedly, and Xia Qingyun smiled: "It seems that it likes you a lot, you have to be careful, don't raise it to death." ”
"No, it won't." Cher happily held the birdcage and hung it under the eaves of the tea room.
After setting up the messenger bird, Xia Qingyun put the letterhead in the study of the treasure pavilion, and simply took the floor plan of the farm from the outside, and sat at the desk to plan.
At the end of the day, Hua Sedum sent the title deed with the seal of the government, Xia Qingyun remembered that his father was going to Yuzhou, and asked him if the elders of the Hua family still planned to go to the south for the New Year.
"I was supposed to go to the front station first, but I just bought Zhuangzi, and the teahouse is about to open a franchise store, I was so busy hitting the back of my head with my heels, and I didn't have any skills!"
Hua Jingtian thought for a while and discussed: "Why don't you work hard for your father and let him bring Hua Ling and them back by the way?" ”
From the capital to Yuzhou, it has been more than two months, and if Hua Sedum is gone, many things here will have to be left behind. Xia Qingyun also had this intention, when he went, he let Black Star follow, and when he came back, there were more Hua Da and others, and nothing should happen along the way.
After agreeing, she went back to the other courtyard and told her father that her father had calculated the days and planned to leave early the next morning and return early.
That night, Xia Qingyun handed over the task of escorting his father to the south to Black Star, and Xue'er had to go with him.
"You're gone, who cares about Xiaoxue? By the time you get back, it'll starve to death. ”
"Aren't there still green plums?" Cher is coquettish.
Qingmei hurriedly raised her hands, "I can't get it, the bird was shocked when it saw us, and I only kissed you alone." ”
Cher pouted unhappily, "Then I'll take it with me, okay?" ”
Xia Qingyun flicked her head helplessly, "I really can't do anything about you, it's okay, I'm more relieved to have one more person, but I can't take the bird away, I will take care of it every day." ”
Xue'er cheered and hugged Xia Qingyun's neck, and Xia Qingyun instructed again: "The mountains are high and the rivers are far away, you must not conflict with others along the way, especially when you are returning, with a few children, if you can avoid anything, don't hold it up, just come back safely!" ”
"Leave it to me, you can rest assured!" Cher looked confident.
"Hmph, I'm not at ease if I'm leaving it to you!" Black Star teased from the side, and Xue'er glared, "Looking for a fight, aren't you?" When he raised his foot and was about to kick, Black Star turned around and hid behind Qingguo, grimacing at her.
"Look, pinch before you leave! I don't know how lively this road is. Qingmei covered her mouth and smiled.
Xia Qingyun shook his head with a smile, talked and laughed with a few people for a while, and then went to the study to spread out the drawings.
She can't stay in the river for a long time, Si Hongrui in the capital is still waiting for her to go back, so that she can transport supplies to the treasure pavilion, she has to make the plan of the farm this morning, and hand over a flower sedum and Yao Xili to implement.
After staying up all night, Xia Qingyun folded the pile of drawings he had drawn, bathed and changed his clothes, and came to Qingyunxuan with Xue'er and Black Star.
Dad came earlier than her, and waited in the private room with Yao Xili, Tian Zhenyu and others for refreshments.
After breakfast, Hua Sedum prepared a spacious and comfortable carriage, and there were many special products from Hejian and the capital tied to the roof, saying that the eldest aunt bought it last afternoon and brought it over to Qingyunxuan Jiang and the children over there.
Seeing them off, Xia Qingyun sat down and talked to Yao Xili and Hua Jingtian about the planning of the farm, and suddenly heard a loud noise outside the window, looking out of the window, at the door of the restaurant opposite, the shopkeeper and the guy were pulling a wandering monk.
I only heard the shopkeeper of the Cloud Tower say loudly: "Why are you monks talking nonsense!" Our restaurant is not a place to eat white food, go quickly, believe it or not, make trouble again and let someone arrest you? (To be continued).
