Qing Shu shouted so loudly and in such a hurry, Zhou Boyan, who was not too far away, quickly ran over to meet her, and at the same time, the alarmed guards also ran to this side. The people working in the fields are far away, but no one pays attention to this side.

Zhou Boyan asked what was wrong, but Qing Shu didn't care to answer, pulled him to run in the direction just now, urged him to hurry up, and pointed to the direction of a few trees in front of him. It's just that there is nothing there except those trees, wild vegetables and weeds on the ground, could it be that she is dazzled?

Qing Shu was stunned, slowed down unconsciously, and stopped. How so? I was just there, and I was still smiling at her.

Zhou Boyan, who was being pulled by her, also stopped, and found that she was just staring at a certain place in a daze, so he followed her line of sight and found nothing.

The guards rushed over, looked around, and found nothing unusual, so they stood there staring at each other.

Qing Shu frowned slightly, not believing that he could be wrong. turned his face and wanted to talk to Zhou Boyan, only to find the guards, and stared at their feet, and shouted, "Ah, my wild vegetables, go away, go away, they are all broken, you go away." ”

The guards were silent.

Qing Shu's eyes turned under everyone's feet at this time, and he found that Zhou Boyan's left foot was also stepping on wild vegetables, and he counted with a displeased face, "Hide, you dodge, look at you, you have trampled on wild vegetables, why are you so annoying!" ”

Zhou Boyan moved his big foot away and asked uncomfortably, "What happened to you just now?" ”

Qing Shu opened his eyes and said nonsense, "What else!" It's just that you look at you standing there doing nothing, as if you're bored, and you want to find something to do for you. "No, you're idle anyway, help me dig wild vegetables!"

Zhou Boyan watched the guards hide back and cleared his throat, "They don't know how to dig, and besides, they don't have the tools to dig vegetables." ”

Qing Shu pointed to the knife on the guard's waist, "That's not." ”

The guards all ran away with their knives.

Qing Shu was very unhappy, "Hey, you guys, come back." But the guards pretended not to hear and ran away. Qing Shu pinched his waist with one hand and pointed at Zhou Boyan's nose with the other, "Look at your subordinates, what are they all lazy into?" It's just digging a wild vegetable, and it can run faster than a rabbit. Since they won't help, here you go. ”

Zhou Boyan asked helplessly: "You are shouting just to find someone to help you dig wild vegetables?" ”

"yes, what else can you do? Hurry up and dig up, if you don't dig enough baskets, this girl will throw your baggage out of the house when she returns. Qing Shu put down the cruel words.

Zhou Boyan cried and laughed and picked up the corners of his robe and squatted down, "Which one to dig?" ”

Qing Shu pointed to the young seedlings of the dandelion, "This." ”

"Dig with what?"

"Dig by hand. Of course, if you can dig with your feet. ”

Zhou Boyan was speechless when he listened, and after observing for a long time, he couldn't find a place to start. The dandelion leaves grow close to the ground, and you can't find a place to start if you want to pull them with your hands. It wasn't until Xiaojuan took the basket and gave him a knife to dig vegetables that he dug up the first wild vegetable.

Xiao Juan saw that Qing Shu assigned the noble son to dig vegetables, and looked at it very strangely for a while, and when she saw the clumsy digging method of the noble son, she was very disdainful in her heart, and ran to the other side to dig.

Someone had already helped dig up the wild vegetables, Qing Shu shifted his attention, looked at the big tree thoughtfully, thought about it, and walked over. She paused as she passed the sweet grass she had found earlier, and quickly walked on again. Step by step, she stopped, staring at the small corner of her clothes peeking out from behind the tree. Because the garment had faded from washing, and was so close to the color of the bark that it was hard to see from a distance. Even if you get closer, if you don't deliberately observe carefully, it's really not easy to find.

Qing Shu turned around and saw that Zhou Boyan was not digging wild vegetables at all, but stood there with his hands behind his back to look at her. She turned her face to look at the big tree, the corner of her clothes behind the tree was still there, so she turned back and beckoned to Zhou Boyan. When Zhou Boyan walked over, she pointed to the thickest of the trees in front of her and spoke silently, "Someone." ”

Zhou Boyan wanted to call the guards, Qing Shu made a silent movement, shook his head, pulled his sleeve and hurried forward. Zhou Boyan cooperated, but pushed Qingshu behind him. Turning to the back of the tree, Zhou Boyan stopped and remained motionless, and Qing Shu poked his head out from behind him, stunned. I thought that people were hiding behind trees, but I didn't expect it to be just a piece of cloth wrapped in something, and a dagger was inserted into the tree pole.

"Huh, what about people?" Qing Shu quickly looked around, and wanted to look elsewhere.

Zhou Boyan pulled her back at once, didn't let her go, then pulled out the dagger, took off the old cloth that was wrapped in the shape, and opened it, revealing a neatly folded paper. "Who was here just now?"

"The guy I met yesterday at the restaurant. I just came over, and he sat under this tree and smiled at me, and I went to call you. But he disappeared all of a sudden, and I thought I was dazzled by the mistake. There was no one around, Qing Shu said nothing, and when he saw him put things away, he asked, "Don't you look?" ”

Zhou Boyan pressed her shoulder, "Can you be curious not to be so heavy?" So it was yesterday, and it is so it is today. If the other party has malicious intentions, you just get up like this, what if something happens? ”

Qing Shu pushed his hand away, "He wants to hurt me, so he did it yesterday." After a few steps, he stopped, glared back at him who was standing there, "Hey, don't forget to dig up a basket full of wild vegetables, don't try to fool around." ”

After a while, I saw Xiaojuan fiercely directing the brocade guards to dig wild vegetables, while Zhou Boyan stood in front of the wheat field and didn't know what he was thinking.

Qing Shu was very busy, busy catching the two "chicks" protected by Chen Qiaojiang, the "old hen". Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong were behind Chen Qiaojiang, laughing and dodging the capture of Qingshu, the "eagle". If Su's mother was here, she would have killed Qing Shunian a long time ago.

After having lunch in Zhuangzi, Chen Qiaojiang didn't want to leave, and pulled Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong not to let go, which means that if he doesn't leave, these two can't go either.

Qing Shu went up and pulled his ears directly, "Stinky boy, it's itchy again, right!" Hurry up and get in the car. ”

Chen Qiaojiang screamed and got into the carriage quickly, leaving Qingshu's sphere of influence, and did not forget to pay tribute to Qingshu, "A fierce stinky woman, she can't marry for the rest of her life."

Qingyang beat him angrily and didn't allow him to speak ill of his sister.

After returning home, Qingshu changed her clothes and took Xiaojuan and Lily of the Valley to work in the vegetable garden that was opened up after the beginning of spring. This vegetable garden is not big, there are five vegetable beds in total, and it is a small vegetable garden dedicated to Qingshu. Qingshu planted the seeds that Mr. Kong gave him last year and the little pepper seeds he collected, and planted a vegetable furrow for each of them. When they just broke through the soil, Qing Shu was really excited, because she was sure that the seeds given by Mr. Kong were tomato seeds. Now the tomato seedlings and pepper seedlings have grown to a length of more than a bunch, and they are ready to be transplanted.

The three empty vegetable beds had been turned over once two days ago, and now they had to be turned over again, and then the pits for planting tomato and pepper seedlings came out. This job was done by Qingshu and Xiaojuan. And Lily of the Valley is responsible for carrying water and watering the vegetable furrows of tomato seedlings and pepper seedlings thoroughly, so that the tomato seedlings and pepper seedlings can be raised well.

The three of them were doing it seriously, and Qingyang took Luo Xiaorong to join in the fun. Seeing that Qing Shu's forehead was sweaty, Qing Yang thought that Qing Shu was tired, so he snatched the pickaxe in Qing Shu's hand and wanted to work on behalf of Qing Shu.

Qing Shu teased him, "I can't even hold the pickaxe, and I still want to dig a pit, but don't hurt myself." ”

Qingyang patted his chest, "I have more strength than my sister when I move." Putting down the words, he began to dig holes in the turned vegetable furrow as Qing Shu had just looked.

Qing Shu smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Be optimistic, the distance between the two pits should neither be too close nor too far, and the depth should also be grasped." Then he pointed to the pit he had just dug up, "Subject to them." ”

Qingyang stopped and looked, "I know. Then he got back to work.

Luo Xiaorong stared at it for a while, and asked Qingyang in a low voice, "Brother, what am I going to do?" ”

Qingyang was asked now, and he didn't know what work to arrange for Luo Xiaorong for a long time.

Qing Shu beckoned to Luo Xiaorong, "Come to my sister's side and help my sister get vegetable seedlings." ”

Luo Xiaorong smiled shyly and walked to Qing Shu's side. Qingshu took the shovel, grasped the distance and dug a shovel down, then tilted up, took the shovel away, squatted down, grabbed a tomato seedling from the loose soil and lifted it gently, and the roots of the tomato seedling came out with a little soil.

Qing Shu grabbed a little loose soil, wrapped it around the roots of the pulled tomato seedlings, and handed it to Luo Xiaorong, "Help my sister put it in the small pit that I have made, okay?" ”

Luo Xiaorong took it with both hands and replied with a serious face, "Okay." Then he moved his small steps upside down, like a baby, holding the seedlings in his hand and going to the vegetable furrow to make a good pit, he was embarrassed, he looked at it for a long time, and didn't know which pit to put in it, so he turned around, "Sister, where do you want to put it?" ”

Qing Shu couldn't help laughing, "You have to put one in a pit, you look at it." ”

Luo Xiaorong sighed, put it into the small pit under his feet, and returned to Qingshu again.

Qing Shu looked at Luo Xiaorong, who was like a little girl with red lips and white teeth, and felt cute, "Sister, okay to kiss it?" ”

Luo Xiaorong immediately got up embarrassed, but he twisted his little face in front of Qing Shu little by little.

Qing Shu felt more and more cute, so he couldn't help but kiss it twice, and then handed over the seedling with soil on the roots in his hand, "No." ”

Luo Xiaorong held his hands again, but he had something to say, "Sister, these are two." "The two seedlings are together, and the roots are covered with soil.

Qing Shu smiled: "Sister knows that the two trees should be put together just in case." If one doesn't make it, there's another. Wait, we're going to make up for the missing one. ”

Luo Xiaorong nodded as if he didn't understand, and ran to put it in the small pit.

Qingyang pouted, put his pickaxe down, moved to Qingshu's side and squatted, and didn't speak, looking sullen.

Qing Shu felt strange, "What's wrong?" ”

Qingyang didn't speak, lowered his head, and grabbed the mud in the vegetable furrow for a while. Luo Xiaorong came to talk to him, and he also ignored him, which was very abnormal.

Qing Shu seemed to think of something, looked left and right, and there was no one else except Xiaojuan, so he quickly kissed Qingyang twice on the face.

Qingyang's small mouth immediately bent up, took the seedling in Qingshu's hand and ran to put it in the pit.

Qing Shu almost laughed out loud and handed the other one to Luo Xiaorong, who was waiting on the side.

Xiao Juan, who was digging a small pit, turned her back and shook her shoulders.

When the seedlings that came out were enough, Qingshu taught Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong to cut the seedlings. First, put the seedlings in the pit to straighten, then fill the loose soil next to it into the pit, slightly compact the soil next to the roots of the seedlings, and then pour water, to water thoroughly.

The three of them were making their hands full of dirt, and Chen Qiaojiang, who had just been coaxed by the maid to take a bath, ran over, jumping to his feet angrily, saying that if there was fun, he would not call him, and so on.

Things suddenly became like a war, and Qingshu had to warn Chen Qiaojiang from time to time, so as to avoid Chen Qiaojiang from harming the precious vegetable seedlings.

The peppers from one vegetable and the tomatoes from two vegetables have been planted, and there are many seedlings that have not moved. Qing Shu pondered for a while, took people to walk around the inner courtyard, and felt that where he could get a vegetable field, so he shouted to let him out. Other houses are planting flowers and flowers, just for beauty, but Qingshu is the opposite, so that you can see a large or small vegetable bed everywhere in the entire inner courtyard. In the summer, except for a few flowers and plants in the front yard that decorates the façade, there is not even a single flower to be found in the rest of the ancient mansion, as long as it is a green plant, it is either a tree or a vegetable.

Of the three purple fruit trees in the mountain, Qingshu left two in the mountain and transplanted one of them and five or six seedlings that had newly grown under it into the yard where he lived. However, with the death of three seedlings, the survival rate is almost half.

After taking a shower at night, drying his hair, and lying down in the quilt to prepare for sleep, Qing Shu suddenly remembered the paper that Zhou Boyan took from the tree during the day. She guessed it was a letter, but she didn't know what was written in it?

When I woke up in the morning, it was a little cloudy outside, and there were scattered raindrops in the sky. After breakfast, Qingshu looked at the tomato seedlings and pepper seedlings planted yesterday, and when he went back, he flipped through his notebook of random notes, and always felt like he had forgotten to do something.

Xiao Yu came in from outside to report, "Miss, I invite you to come over." ”

Qing Shu didn't raise his head, "Sue him, Miss Ben is not free." ”

Xiao Yu said again: "But Miss, Yan Gongzi invited you over to say goodbye to you. ”

Qing Shu blinked, "He's finally leaving?" ”

Xiao Yu pursed her lips and smiled, "Yes, Miss." Listening to Gu Shi, it seems that something big has happened in Jingzhong, and he needs to go back to deal with it in person. ”

Qing Shu put away the notebook, "Where are the others?" He left, but the third prince stayed here, and she hated it.

Xiao Yu replied: "I am still in the courtyard where I live, and I said that I was packing up my things, and the young master has already passed." ”

As soon as he heard that Qingyang had passed, Qingshu didn't send someone to call Qingyang and brought Xiaoyu over.

As soon as he saw Qing Shu, Gu Shishi, who was standing in the courtyard with a burden, grinned and reported loudly to the people in the house.

Qing Shu asked if Qing Yang was here, and Gu Shi replied that he was. Qing Shu nodded and walked in. The sound of Zhou Boyan and Qingyang talking came from the inside, Qingshu coughed and walked inside, but he didn't expect Mr. Lu to be there.

Qing Shu saluted Mr. Lu and asked Zhou Boyan, "Do you have something to do with me?" ”

Zhou Boyan pushed a brocade box placed on the kang, "It's inconvenient to take it, I want to entrust you to keep it for a while." ”

Qing Shu didn't mean to answer, "You can ask Mr. Lu to help you keep it." ”

Mr. Lu waved his hand, "No, no, Mr. is rough-branched, sometimes he can't even find his own silver, how can he keep his things." ”

Qing Shu nodded, "Okay, leave me there for the time being." You'd better lock it up, I'm not responsible for losing something. ”

Zhou Boyan was not polite at all, "Cheng, you help me find a lock to lock." However, immediately take out a royal blue brocade and put it on the brocade box, "This is a thank you gift, don't shirk it." ”

Qing Shu looked at the familiar Jinpa, and said uncomfortably: "If you don't come to the door for trouble, I will be very grateful to you, and there is no need for a thank you gift." ”

Zhou Boyan no longer continued the topic, but told Qingyang, "Take care of my sister." ”

Qingyang looked at him reluctantly, "Well, I can take care of my sister, don't worry about my brother." ”

Qing Shu was speechless for a moment.

Mr. Lu glanced at Zhou Boyan meaningfully, stroked his beard, "Don't worry, it's yours, it's yours after all, and no one can snatch it away." ”

Zhou Boyan coughed uncomfortably and got up, "I'm leaving, I'll rush back when the matter is done, you guys are busy with yours, you don't have to send each other." ”

Qing Shu turned to one side, blocking his way, "What should I do about the affairs of the third prince?" ”

Zhou Boyan handed over the note in his hand.

Qing Shu was slightly stunned and answered suspiciously.

Zhou Boyan had a smile in his eyes, and when he walked past her, he quietly reached out and gently shook her hand hanging by his side.

was taken advantage of again, Qing Shu turned around to scold, but Zhou Boyan strode out without looking back, and Qingyang came over and leaned on her side. She moved her mouth, but in the end she didn't curse.

Inadvertently looked at Zhou Boyan's small movements, Mr. Lu's heart was happy.

Zhou Boyan left, and Mr. Lu took Qingyang to the school to teach.

Qing Shu walked over, picked up the brocade box placed on the kang, looked down at the royal blue brocade on the brocade box, and sighed. It stands to reason that her current temperament is very abrupt for this era, a little shocking, and no man should like it, right? But what's going on with Zhou Boyan? was stimulated or what, he actually said that he wanted to marry her.

However, the ancients often repaid their gratitude by promising or marrying the daughter of a benefactor. Could it be that he wants to repay his kindness, so he wants to marry her, who is haunted by the rumors of "a prosperous husband all his life, and no children all his life"?

She didn't know exactly what was going on, but she guessed that her general's father seemed to be gracious to him or someone he cared about. Otherwise, he would not have traveled thousands of miles to her father's grave on the night of the thirtieth night of the Chinese New Year's Eve every year to burn paper and kowtow to her father.

Qing Shu shook his head, whatever, it's useless to think so much, the most important thing is to live the current life. Xiaoyu wanted to take the brocade box in Qingshu's hand, but Qingshu didn't give it. If she remembers it well, this brocade box is the box that Zhou Boyan holds important letters, and she can't go on any errands. It's not heavy, and she is completely moving.

Qingshu just carried the brocade box back to the room and locked it in the box, Lily of the Valley came to report, saying that Cheng Niangzi was coming, and Cheng Niangzi said that the ancient mansion had asked her to inquire about it.

Finally there was news, Qing Shu got up and walked out, "Where are the people now?" ”

Lily of the valley followed behind and said that she was in the side hall of the front yard, and Su's mother was accompaniing.
