Jingyi opened her mouth first and said "early".

"Early." Tao Xiang glanced at her as he sat down. Her face looked unusually pale this morning.

Being watched by him, Jingyi was a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Zhang's mother wanted to give them breakfast, and the question distracted him.

Tao Xiang is still coffee toast, and Jingyi only needs a bowl of porridge.

Caozhu came over with the plate and stood behind Zhang's mother, and accidentally dropped the plate. The coffee toast on the plate suddenly fell to the ground. Mother Zhang forcibly suppressed her anger and glared at Cao Zhu, turned around and said with a red face: "Young master, young grandmother, I'll make another pot of coffee right away." Da"

Jing Yi looked at Cao Zhu's frightened face and said, "What's wrong with Cao Zhu, but I've been doing things with Qiu Wei for a long time, and I'm panicking." ”

"Miss is using me as a pawn again." Qiu Wei hurriedly came over to help and cleaned up the dishes on the ground. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he even took the plate in Caozhu's hand, and took it down with a smile.

Jingyi smiled. Seeing that Caozhu had not yet come to her senses, he motioned for her to go down.

Zhang's mother wanted to hurry up and prepare another coffee, so Tao Xiang said, "Forget it." Bring me a bowl of porridge too. ”

"Yes, young master." Mama Zhang saw that his expression was as usual, and she was relieved seriously. I also served him a bowl of porridge.

Jing Yi saw that Zhang's mother, the old man of the Tao family, was like this, and thought to herself that Tao Xiang, even if he didn't lose his temper, he would be intimidating enough when he had a straight face. She thought so, and glanced at him again-Tao Xiang usually had the habit of reading newspapers, but today the stack of newspapers in his hand did not move, as if the bowl of porridge tasted very good, and he had to concentrate on dealing with it...... She looked at him like this, but her bowl of porridge was a mess.

Tao Xiang only ate a bowl of porridge.

He got up together, and Jingyi also got up.

Tao Xiang turned his eyes to see Qiu Wei put the things she took down on the shelf.

It is a pair of copper paperweights and two boxes of delicate letterheads.

There are also two boxes that I don't know what they contain.

"Are you willing to give this away?" He took the holster from Atul's hand, glanced at the copper paperweight, and asked in a soft voice.

"What's so reluctant about this? It's not very valuable. Jingyi asked rhetorically.

Tao Xiang didn't say anything more, Atul had already held an umbrella and was waiting outside, eager to catch him and hurry away, and he left.

Jingyi followed out and stood by the door looking at him.

The dark gray military uniform was like a little smoke-colored ink on rice paper on a rainy day...... She sensed something was not right, and turned around to take a closer look at the shelves.

When she picked up the pair of paperweights, she called "Qiu Wei, come".

"Miss, what's the matter?" Qiu Wei asked.

Jing Yi took the paperweight in her hand, looked at Qiu Wei's confused face, and was about to teach her a lesson, but she was silent. I looked at this thing in my hand, and my heart moved...... Looking back, Tao Xiang has already gone far.

"Miss?" Qiu Wei called her again.

"It's all right." Jingyi put the paperweight down. I checked what was in front of me. Especially for those French perfumes, she specially arranged the bow on the crystal bottle to make the bottle look extraordinarily gorgeous and solemn. "Let Zhang's mother find a red silk seal and send it to the young grandmother. Just say what I said, and ask her to hand it over to the second lady. ”

"Yes." Qiu Wei promised, "Miss, can you eat some more?" She saw that Jingyi barely touched a bowl of porridge, and she didn't know if she had no appetite or what's wrong. Obviously, I was quite happy last night...... "Miss, don't forget about sending a telegram to the third lady." ”

Jingyi thought to herself, probably Tao Xiang will not forget.

"Pack it up. I went to the study to write a few letters. Jing Yi turned around.

Qiu Wei knew that she meant not to be disturbed, so she nodded hurriedly.

Jingyi stood down again and said, "Mother Zhang, let Caozhu come for a while." ”

Zhang's mother was cleaning up the table when she heard her instructions, and when she heard that she was going to see the grass beads, she was busy responding.

It rained for two days, and as soon as the sky cleared, Er Yi took his classmates in to find Jingyi to take pictures together. Tao Xiang was not at home these days, and Mrs. Tao asked people to come to see her, and also told her to take medicine on time for maintenance. Jingyi finally recuperated quietly for a few days, and felt a lot lighter on her body. As soon as Er Yi came, she went with them and took pictures with her camera. At first, he walked around the Lang Garden, but then Er Yi remembered that there were many flowers and trees in the nearby back garden, so he thought of going to the back garden to walk around and take pictures. Jing Yi thought that she had already agreed to help Eryi anyway, so it was better to simply send her happy, so she didn't object.

The back garden is more remote, Jingyi has never been to the Tao family, but she has never set foot in it.

Er Yi volunteered to be a guide and guide Jingyi and her classmates. This back garden covers a wide area, and it is the season when flowers bloom everywhere, and the fragrance of flowers is fragrant and fragrant. It's just that for some reason, I didn't see anyone in the garden, even the maintenance florist. The flowers and trees grow very casually, and if you look closely at this garden, it doesn't look like someone is carefully maintaining.

Jingyi walked in the meantime, and he was a little confused.

Although there were only a few of them, it was very lively to come all the way to talk, laugh, and look at the flowers and plants. Just looking at the quiet ripples, the shade of the trees here shades the sky and the sun, but it is not a good place to take pictures. But at this time, Er Yi was so happy that he couldn't take pictures, and took his classmates to visit the novel places in the garden, and walked away...... Jingyi has just recovered from a serious illness, and her physical strength is not comparable to them after all. When I walked for a little longer, I sweated profusely on my forehead. If you are slow, you will fall behind. She didn't let people follow because she was too cumbersome, and as soon as they left, she was left alone. After sitting on the stone bench for a while, he gradually recovered, and then looked up, where was there still the shadow of Eryi?

She was worried that she would get lost if she walked around, so Er Yi couldn't find her when she came back, so she just sat there and waited. I can still hear Eryi's laughter, so it can be seen that they haven't gone very far.

The fragrance of flowers wafted over, which was also refreshing.

She played with the camera in her hand. Looking at the flowers and trees in the garden from the camera, it is very interesting.

Jingyi was almost resting, so she wanted to get up and take a look. It didn't take long to follow the trail through a small forest and come to the water's edge. There are lotus flowers raised in the water, and the color is not visible at this time, but the growth is quite vigorous; Koi swimming under lotus leaves......

She suddenly thought of the pond of koi fish at home. Yamei saw it that day and said that the Tao family's grandmother also raised a good pool of koi.

I just don't know if that's it.

She walked slowly, looking at the fiery carp in the water, still in the turquoise water.

There is a gazebo in the porch, which peeks out to the water. Jing Yi was curious and looked to the other side of the corridor. Clumps of bamboo cover the windows of the porch, faintly unreal, and there is a well nearby, but the mouth of the well has been killed...... Suddenly, a gust of wind passed, the bamboo leaves rustled, and Jing Yi felt that the wind was blowing in her face, and her back was cold.

She was in a daze when she heard someone say, "The koi in the backyard of Xuanruitang is the best in the house." Grandma likes it, and even has a special person to feed the fish, so we are not allowed to feed it easily. ”

Jingyi hurriedly turned around, and saw that Fushun was pushing Tao Jun's wheelchair and had already reached behind her. Her heart was still pounding, and she was busy greeting Tao Jun.

Tao Jun looked at her, dressed in a silver-gray dress, like a faint shadow, under the emerald green tree, by the pond of Qingling, it was really frightening...... But his face was pale, I am afraid that not only did he recover from a serious illness, but also because he was frightened, so he said: "I disturbed the seventh sister." ”

Jingyi was indeed a little frightened.

It's not just because of Tao Jun's master and servant, but also because of the gust of wind just now.

"Think about it, every time I meet the seventh sister, the seventh sister is frightened. I should really apologize to the seventh sister. Tao Jun saw that she was silent and smiled.

Jing Yi looked at him very well. Xu was due to the hot weather, he changed into summer clothes, not so bloated, and his face was thinner...... Looking at it this way, it is not difficult to imagine Tao Jun's heroic appearance back then, I am afraid that he will never let his two brothers ...... Even now, the demeanor is excellent.

"Does Big Brother often come to this garden?" Jingyi asked softly.

"Occasionally. It's a secluded place, but you can spend half a day without anyone disturbing you. Tao Jun said, motioning to Fushun. Fushun pushed his wheelchair.

Jing Yi dodged to the side.

Fushun pushed Tao Jun's wheelchair into the gazebo and then stood aside, Jingyi was two or three steps away from Tao Jun.

She had the heart to ask why no one came to visit this garden when it was so good. There is no shortage of florists and servants in the Tao family, and they have made the garden deserted like this? Thinking about the well just now, the dark bamboo forest, she didn't ask.

"It's a little more secluded. Today is the rise of the eighth sister, so I followed her in for a walk. She whispered.

"If the seventh sister walks by herself, it's better not to go deep into the garden. This garden has been unmanaged for many years, and it is somewhat deserted. Tao Jun reminded.

"Yes." Jing Yi thinks about it, isn't it? Fortunately, they are with them today.

"It wasn't like that. There are three or four more courtyards from here. In the past, when people lived there, this garden became more popular. It's just that later, the population of the family is not so much, and a few courtyards are idle, and this side is more remote, so I don't usually come over. It's been a long time, even if someone maintains it, the flowers and plants are idle, no one appreciates it, and it's probably boring, and it's barren when you look at it. Lately, I think there are more cats than people in the garden, and this has become their world. Tao Jun said.

His tone was slow, clearly talking about the flowers and plants in the garden. In Jingyi, it sounds like some things are used as metaphors for people, and it also makes a little sense, so I can't help but laugh.
