In this era, whether it is a monk, a Taoist priest or a Taoist aunt, the world is either hospitable or kind to ask them to leave, few people dare to speak ill of them, and few people dare to rudely drive them away.

Therefore, although Aunt Dao came to the door very abruptly, the housekeeper did not dare to take the initiative to invite people away, but sent Lily of the Valley to report to Qingshu.

Whether it is a monk, a Taoist priest, or a Taoist aunt, Qingshu will not blindly admire it like the world, she hoes the grass seriously, and she can't say it if she doesn't want to.

Lily of the valley was puzzled, but she didn't dare to delay, so she hurriedly went back to pass the word to the housekeeper. Soon, she came back again, holding a letter in her hand, "Miss, the letter from the Daoist aunt outside." ”

Qing Shu was slightly stunned, put down the hoe in his hand and stood up, and took the letter to read. Juanxiu's handwriting is full of style: Has Lu Xuanfang quit drinking? How are you doing?

Qing Shu hid the waves in his eyes and slowly closed the letter, "What about people?" ”

Lily of the Valley replied, "I'm already gone, and I'll come back at this hour tomorrow." ”

Qing Shu stood thoughtfully in place for a moment, sent Lily of the Valley back, and then took the letter to the school. There was a loud sound of reading in the school, and it was obvious that the gentleman and the student had not yet reached the recess. She couldn't wait, and slammed the door three times.

After a while, the door of the school opened, and the sound of reading continued. Mr. Lu personally came to open the door, his face was not very good, and his eyes were full of unhappiness when he looked at Qing Shu.

This is to be expected. Mr. Lo doesn't like to be interrupted from school. Qing Shu didn't say a word and handed the letter over.

Although Mr. Lu's face was not good, he also reached out to take the letter. After reading the two short sentences, he frowned slightly, and asked thoughtfully, "Where did this come from?" ”

Qing Shu paid attention to Mr. Lu's expression and replied, "There is a Taoist aunt who came to the mansion, claiming to be related to me and wants to see me." I refused, and she gave it. ”

Mr. Lu closed the door of the school, and then paced back a few steps, and suddenly said, "Go quickly, bring that "Morning Dew Peony". ”

Qing Shu didn't understand what he meant, and with doubts, he went back to get the picture scroll of "Morning Dew Peony" and held it to Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu took Qingshu into the school and let the four students in the school go out to play. Then, he took the scroll that Qing Shu held in his hand, opened it and spread it on the bookcase. Then, he unfolded the letter in his hand, placed it on the scroll, and compared the words on the letter with the poem on the scroll. Suddenly, he let out a long sigh, his face was mixed, and whispered, "Sure enough, it's her." ”

At this point, there is still something I don't understand. Qing Shu was apprehensive and speechless for a while. Dao Gu is none other than the concubine who abandoned the folk by the martial arts of the three clans for treason (that is, the concubine of the former queen Wu's sixth uncle's family), and the peony fairy who is one of the two talented women of Da'an in the eyes of the world, that is, Wu Mulan.

It's just that why did the missing Wu Mulan appear in Kangxi Town and find her? It stands to reason that she has nothing to do with Wu Mulan.

Coming for Mr. Lu? It's not right, Mr. Lu said that he only has a three-sided relationship with Wu Mulan, and how deep the three-sided relationship can be!

Could it be that he is coming for Zhou Boyan? It doesn't make sense. The eldest princess and Wu Mulan used to be very good, and they were like sisters. But in the middle, the eldest princess inserted a bar to point Zhou Qiao as a concubine, as long as Wu Mulan is not stupid, she will definitely turn against the eldest princess. The eldest princess is too, there are so many men in the world, who is not good for the horse, so she has to rob the man that the sister likes.

The predecessors made the relationship so complicated, and the most uncomfortable one in the middle was none other than Zhou Boyan. Although Zhou Boyan is the son of Zhou Qiao, who Wu Mulan loves, he is also the son of the eldest princess whom Wu Mulan hates. What does Wu Mulan think of Zhou Boyan? Why did Wu Mulan come to her door? When she refused to meet, why did Wu Mulan mention Zhou Boyan's name again?

Mr. Lu put away the scroll, "Girl, what are you going to do?" ”

Qing Shu was stunned, "What?" ”

Mr. Lu asked again, "She wants to see you, what are you going to do?" ”

Qing Shu's face was full of confusion, "Sir, don't you think this is strange?" I didn't know her at all, and my parents didn't seem to recognize her. No one has ever mentioned her name to me except you, nor have anyone ever mentioned her paintings to me. You said she had been missing for years. It always felt too strange for her to suddenly appear like this at this moment. Gu Ye had mentioned the word Wu Mulan without a head, but she didn't take it to heart at that time.

Later, Luo Shangshu gave her a painting, and after Mr. Lu looked at the painting and mentioned Wu Mulan, she recalled it for a long time before she recalled the words that Gu Ye had said. Gu Ye's words, coupled with some of the information conveyed by Mr. Lu's words, she made a bold guess and came to the conclusion that the relationship between the eldest son, Zhou Qiao and Wu Mulan was a very tangled triangular relationship.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Mr. Lu asked, "You don't want to see her?" ”

"I don't want to." To her, Wu Mulan is just a passerby, and at the same time, she is likely to be a bane.

"You don't want to see her, but the boy wants to see her very much."

"How is that possible?" She asked subconsciously.

"When Yan Xiaozi was sick and crying when she was a child, she hugged Yan Xiaozi and coaxed her. Although a lot of things happened in the middle, and the relationship between the older generations was complicated, Yan Xiaozi had some admiration for her. ”

This relationship is indeed complicated. When the child is sick and crying, it is not his mother who is coaxed by him, but an outsider!

Mr. Lu earnestly persuaded, "Meet her!" The boy will be glad to find out. ”

Qing Shu didn't say yes, didn't say no, quit, and returned to the vegetable furrow to continue hoeing. The seedlings of red fruit and pepper are growing very well, and they will be ready for transplanting in five or six days. All the qiē is going on in an orderly manner, her life is busy and peaceful, but there is one less one of him by her side. I haven't received a letter from him for a month, and I don't know if he's doing well? She admits that she misses him a little.

In the afternoon, just after the time had passed, and not long after the flowers had dispersed, a large number of dark clouds drifted in the sky and engulfed the clear sky little by little. The people at home were busy putting away the things that were drying outside; Pedestrians rush to their homes or find shelter from the rain.

After a while, a light rain fell from the sky. A quarter of an hour later, the drizzle turned to a torrential downpour. Those who were doing things outdoors with a fluke mentality couldn't avoid it, and they were immediately doused with chickens in soup.

The peasants hid in their homes and watched the rain outside, discussing the good and timely occurrence of the rain with a happy face.

On the wasteland, Steward Zhang wore a cloak to check the situation of the thatched hut one by one. Because the roof of the thatched hut is made of tarpaulin, the thatched hut is in good condition, and none of them are dewy and rainy. Even so, Steward Zhang instructed them to always pay attention to the condition of the thatched hut where they lived. If there is rain in any room, you must report it quickly, and everyone should find a way to deal with the situation in time.

The ancient mansion of the town. Qingshu felt that this weather was the most suitable for eating noodle soup, so he sent a message to the kitchen saying that he would eat noodles at night. Because it was a rainy day, the light in the house was not good. Qing Shu was afraid of hurting her eyes, so she didn't dare to read a book, nor did she dare to be a female celebrity. She doesn't do it herself, and she doesn't allow the maids around her to be a female celebrity. So, she had nothing to do, she brought the maid to drink tea with melon seeds, and then chatted.

While they were talking and laughing, Lily of the Valley came over in the rain with an oil-paper umbrella. She pushed open the door, but fearing that her wet and mud-stained shoes would stain the room, she stood at the door and said, "Miss, the slave has something to report." ”

Xiaoyu, Xiaojuan and Xiaoya, who were sitting around Qingshu, hurriedly got up. Qing Shu also stood up, "After braving such a heavy rain, what's the important thing?" Come in and talk back. ”

"Miss, the slave's shoes are dirty, just stand here and talk." As she spoke, Lily of the Valley took two steps back, "Miss, Young Master Jia came in the rain to ask for help, saying that Miss Li was missing, and wanted Miss to send some people out to help find someone." ”

"Gu Li is gone again?" Qingshu frowned. After the escape from the marriage, Gu Li went out once, but was quickly recovered. Is this addictive to it, but it's still coming? Amusing. Besides, what does Gu Li's life and death have to do with her, it's raining so heavily outside, why should she send someone to find it?

"Yes. Young Master Jia said to the housekeeper that seeing that it was going to rain, he hurriedly collected the word stall and went home, not wanting to make a mess at home. His mother fell to the ground and was unconscious, and the mother-in-law went out to ask for a doctor, and only a maid and a few young children were left at home. The maid cried and told him that Miss Li had taken a few pieces of gold and silver jewelry and ran away, and everyone else went out to look for them. He couldn't take care of Miss Li, and when the doctor came and said that his mother was not worried about her life, he came out to find someone with confidence. They searched the town for a long time without success, and they were worried that people had run out of the town, so they wanted to borrow people from the government to look outside the town. Lily of the valley organized what she had heard, and explained it clearly before and after.

Qing Shu said lightly, "Go back and tell the housekeeper and let him watch it." ”

Lily of the valley got the order, retired, and held up an oil-paper umbrella to spread the word.

When the housekeeper heard Qing Shu's words, he looked at Gu Qingjia's soaked clothes standing under the porch in front of him and shook his head. He called the four family members, instructed them a few words, and asked them to put on their robes and go with Gu Qingjia.

When it was time for dinner, it was raining and it was much darker than usual. Qingshu ate a bowl of hot noodle soup with two stir-fried dishes. When the maid closed the table, she asked if the housekeeper who had been sent out had returned, and the maid said no.

It was already dark, there was an oil lamp on the table, and Qing Shu sat at the table and tried to play chess. She didn't know how to play chess, she just tried to play it out of boredom to pass the time. She had thought about learning to play chess, but because she was always busy and had no time to spare, she just thought about it and didn't have the time to learn it. She will have the idea of learning chess, but everyone around her loves to play chess, and she can be regarded as influenced by the people around her!

Mr. Lu not only loves to play chess, but is now teaching Qingyang, Hao and Luo Xiaorong to play chess. Therefore, she does not expect to be a master herself, but at least she must be a chess person. One day, when her brother wanted her to play a game of chess with her, her eyes were dark and she didn't know anything.

There is also Zhou Boyan, who loves to play chess and often plays against himself. That made her feel that he was very lonely. During the Chinese New Year, he said that he wanted to teach her to play chess, but she didn't agree at that time, and he seemed a little disappointed. She had now figured out that when he came back, she would learn chess from him.

She randomly placed a number of chess pieces on the chessboard, and suddenly felt very bored, so she picked the chess pieces one by one and threw them into the wooden box containing the chess pieces. There was a faint sound of talking outside, and then Xiaojuan knocked on the door of the inner room. She called Xiaojuan in the door, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiaojuan leaned in and whispered, "The person sent out has returned, and Miss Li has found it." ”

"Hmm."

"I heard what the butler and the housekeeper were saying. Jia Ding said that Miss Li had the audacity to elope with someone this time, but she was deceived and almost sold to Willow Lane, Flower Street. However, even if it wasn't sold to that kind of place, it wouldn't be much better. When I found her, the clothes on my body were ......" Xiaojuan couldn't say anything.

"What's wrong with the clothes?"

Xiaojuan scratched her head, "It seems that she has no clothes on." ”

Qing Shu grabbed the chess piece's hand and frowned, "Did you hear it right?" ”

"When the steward found the slave and maid, he did not let the servant speak. But the ears of the slave and maid, what they said first were basically heard clearly. ”

Qingshu solemnly instructed her, "When you walk out of this door, forget about it and don't mention it again." If I let me know that the news has been revealed, I will not spare you. "No matter how much she hates Gu Li, but the woman has a heavy name. If there is news that a girl's innocence has been ruined, even if this girl does not commit suicide, her future life will be extremely difficult.

Xiaojuan is also a girl, so she naturally understands what Qingshu means. However, in her opinion, Gu Li was completely self-inflicted. Gu Li ran away from marriage first, ran away from home and then ran away, and now there is another elopement scene. What good girl would toss around so out of tune!

Because of Gu Li's news, Qing Shu was in no mood to fiddle with chess pieces. She put away the chess pieces and chessboard, washed up, and lay down on the kang early in the morning. In the current weather, the kang is burned once every two days, just to remove the moisture, and there is no need to heat the kang like in winter. Before going to bed, she thought that it was time to move to the Westinghouse to live in a bed, and the kang was no longer needed.

When I woke up the next morning, I found that the sky had cleared, and it was a cloudless and good day. Immediately after the rain, it will be clear, which is the greatest gift of God to the farmers.

The buds and sorghum growing in the fields, as well as the winter and spring wheat, were a bit fierce, and the heavy rain came at the right time, but it helped a lot. There was no continuous cloudy day and it was sunny immediately, which avoided insects in the crops, which was also a happy event.

Before breakfast, Qing Shu changed into cloth clothes and shoes, and went to the vegetable garden to take a look. There is some standing water in the vegetable bed, but not much. This stagnant water does not need to be treated, and it is estimated that it will all seep into the ground before noon, and the seedlings will not be waterlogged.

Qingshu went back in a good mood, changed his clothes, shoes and socks, and went back to the house after breakfast in the small dining room. She cleaned her hands and checked that the calluses on her hands would not scratch the silk, and then took the needle and thread and the material out to make the female red. Now her skills as a female celebrity are getting better and better, and she is making her own underwear, and she no longer relies on Xu Wuniang or maids.

Seeing that summer is approaching, in addition to making intimate clothes for summer, she also wants to try to make a few vests and short skirts. Tank tops and short skirts, which she wanted to wear when she was alone in the house. It's cool to wear in the house in the hot summer, and it feels cool just thinking about it.

At about the same time as yesterday, the word came from the front, and yesterday's Daogu came again.
