Chapter 20: A Bag of Gold

Gu Chu really didn't mention her mother's affairs for a long time, for fear that this girl would be sad and sad.

While the two were walking on the road, Gu Chushi asked, "What does Sister Lu think of Sister Xiyan?" ”

Lu Manman was slightly stunned, her eyelids drooped, and she asked with a smile, "Xiyan?" How could Brother Hatsushi think of her? ”

Gu Chushi smiled and said gently: "Every time Sister Lu returns home, I can see her, I think she is following you." ”

"And Sister Xiyan has pestered me for a while."

He didn't hide what Lu Xiyan had done to him, and told Lu Manman everything.

Lu Manman was his fiancΓ©e first, and then a friend, and Lu Xiyan was just a friend's sister, but he didn't want to affect his relationship with Lu Xiyan because of the matter between him and Lu Xiyan.

She was still bright and gentle, but her words were mixed with a tone of relief, and she said, "I know, she stalked me, and I beat her for her shameless behavior." ”​

Seeing this, Gu Chushi tried to say good things for Lu Xiyan, "She is actually a very good person, and the two of you have your own advantages......

He said good things for Lu Xiyan not to ask Lu Manman to forgive her, but his identity didn't need to worry about her at all.

He has also seen how the concubines in the house teach their children since he was a child, that is, to compete with the lineage, he does not feel that this method is very open, but feels shameful, the road is a long way to be a girl's family, she should be pampered as a girl who looks down on everything, and should be as proud as herself.

Lu Manman raised his eyebrows and said in a tough tone: "It's a pity that she can't find her position, I didn't hate her from the beginning, and I don't bother to go against her." ”

She didn't have the time to think about it.

Gu Chushi chuckled when he heard this, thinking to himself, this is the kind of spirit that can match himself.

He smiled all over his face and said, "Don't say it, I understand, I'll send you home first." ”

Lu Manman nodded, she held an oil-paper umbrella, and Gu Chushi beside her was next to her.

The sun shone on the road, and the figures of the two strolling were reflected in the lake.

After returning home, Lu Manman first took Gu Chushi to the school to review his morning homework, and then waited for the master to teach.

On the other side, in Mo Chuqing's house.

Mo Chuqing ushered in another thing that she felt distressed about, that is, her uncompetitive daughter had a depressed face and hung her head.

She sighed, a few wrinkles appeared on the originally delicate makeup on her face, she frowned, and asked, "Little Ancestor, what's the matter with you?" ”

Lu Xiyan sat on the chair with Erlang's legs crossed, one hand on the table with her cheeks propped up, the dark green long skirt drooped, she was dressed today without losing the long road, but this behavior was very disappointing.

She didn't have a good voice and said angrily: "Mother, the master who taught us today is Situ Xiuyuan, the champion of this year's palace examination." ”

Mo Chuqing didn't understand what she meant, she only thought it was a good thing to have such a talented master to teach, and she continued: "What's the matter? Wouldn't it be good for him to come and teach you? lest you fail to learn and complain that the master did not teach well. ”

Lu Xiyan turned her face away, pouted and looked at her mother, her words were very unconvinced, "Lu Manman is very close to him, and my daughter is afraid that she will learn more than her daughter." ”

Mo Chuqing looked at her daughter with burning eyes, and said something reassuring to her, "Your future will naturally take care of you, that's all!" I know. ”

However, Mo Chuqing wondered, the road was long and he didn't know Situ Xiuyuan, what could the two of them do?

She asked, "Isn't this the first time you have seen your Master?" How can you get close to a long way? It's just that the seat is close to the main seat, and you don't even accept this? ”

I saw Lu Xiyan clenching her clothes tightly, and cautiously complained about Lu Manman, "No, as an eldest lady, she ran to the guest room to find him, how bad it would be if it got out!" ”

Mo Chuqing couldn't help but sigh, how did her daughter become sentimental?

"Yo? Are you still thinking about her? You have reminded me that Situ Xiuyuan is now annoying the emperor, that is a well-known thing, don't you like her fiancΓ©? Then don't worry about the long road, she is not yet old, and her mind is not mature enough, if she has a good impression of Situ Xiuyuan, then she will make a wrong step, a wrong step. ”

However, Lu Xiyan's words made Mo Chuqing notice, her eyebrows and eyes curled, and she laughed.

Lu Xiyan looked at her as if she didn't understand, and asked, "What does my mother mean?" ”

She smiled and patted Lu Xiyan's shoulder and said, "If you like to follow her, follow her If something goes wrong, report it to me immediately, and let your mother help you with the rest." ”

Mo Chuqing looked at the daughter in her eyes, her mind was not pure, she was so scheming when she was so old, and she could rest assured that she would compete head-on with Lu Manman in the future, maybe she was beaten by that cheap girl last time.

The daughter taught by Lin Tingcheng has no brains, isn't this giving her a chance?

"It's getting late, it's time for you to go to class."

Mo Chuqing really can't stand her daughter's sitting posture, she doesn't look like a good girl, I hope she won't embarrass herself when she goes out!

Lu Xiyan immediately stood up and nodded, "My daughter knows." ”

After sending Lu Xiyan away, Mo Chuqing also started to act, she stood at the gate of the West Courtyard with a painting fan in her bare hand and waited for Situ Xiuyuan to appear.

Sure enough, it was a good idea to wait for the rabbit, and Mo Chuqing saw that it was time for him to teach.

After a while, Situ Xiuyuan really went out.

Situ Xiuyuan held a book in his hand and put it behind him, and he saw a woman he didn't know at the gate of the courtyard, it should be the mother of a young master or young lady, and she must have come by himself.

He stepped forward and asked, "I wonder if I can help Madame?" ”

Mo Chuqing showed a kind smile, although she was getting older, her voice was as crisp as a girl, and she said softly: "Childe is Situ Xiuyuan?" ”

Situ Xiuyuan bent down towards Mo Chuqing, put his hands together, and straightened out to salute, "It's here, Madame has something to say." ”

Mo Chuqing covered the lower half of her face with the fan, and lightly opened her lips through the fan, "I want to ask my son to make up for my daughter's lesson." ”

Situ Xiuyuan didn't want to agree directly, and said respectfully: "It's no problem, stay until the evening, and you will have free time at that time." ”

Mo Chuqing nodded, very satisfied with his attitude, and saved himself from having to say more, "Okay, I'll let someone call you in the evening." ”

Situ Xiuyuan stared at her and said, "Okay." ”

"A little care, not respect."

After speaking, Mo Chuqing took out a purse from his arms and put it in Situ Xiuyuan's hand.

Situ Xiuyuan took the heavy purse and did not forget to thank him for giving him the opportunity to work part-time, "Madam is polite." ”

Immediately, in order not to delay his own teaching, Situ Xiuyuan opened his mouth to send people away, "Madam, it's time to teach next, please go back after Madame explains." ”

Mo Chuqing lowered his head and said with a smile: "It's troublesome." ”

After speaking, what should the two of them do?

Situ Xiu weighed the purse in his hand as he walked away, and he opened it curiously to see that it was full of gold.

This generous woman Situ Xiuyuan saw it for the first time, and his wealth was not exposed, so he hurriedly put it away.

On the way to the school, he kept wondering which child was the woman. He really couldn't figure out that his ability was like that, and he spent a lot of money to teach himself, in case that kid was really untalented, wouldn't he be particularly embarrassed?

Thinking of this, Situ Xiuyuan really regretted his outspoken actions.

The phrase "what comes is what you come to you is safe" has always been his mantra to relax his mind, and now he really has to relax like that.

After noon, the sun still did not change its intention to scorch the earth, and a few rays of sunlight fell on the tables and chairs through the gaps between the curtains.

Situ Xiuyuan sat on the main seat and began to count the number of people, and the extra young man should be the son of the Gu family that Lu Manman said.

Situ Xiuyuan glanced up and down at the young man, not much smaller than himself, the man looked handsome and chic, and he didn't know if he was worthy of this little girl.

Situ Xiuyuan's mind today is all on Lu Manman, and for some reason, her heartstrings were fluctuating at first sight, this is a feeling that has never been felt before, it is amazing.

Lu Manman turned his face away and whispered to Gu Chushi, who was sitting beside him, "He is the master." ”

Gu Chushi observed Situ Xiuyuan sitting on the main seat intently, he was really young and handsome, and it was not surprising that his face was a beauty.

Situ Xiuyuan saw that it was not too early, and it was time to get to the point, so he coughed lightly, "The main body of this lesson is to write lyrics and poems. ”

Lu Man sat with her back straight, holding the ink-stained brush in her hand, and she was ready to start writing.

"Five words, flower, medium, partial, love, chrysanthemum, seven words, can be disassembled and reorganized."

Situ Xiu said from afar, and wrote it down on rice paper with a brush while the road was long.

Gu Chushi spoke first, he stood up and hung his face, "Master, can it be like this, if the flowers prefer chrysanthemums, the peony peony can't compete." ”

A smile appeared on Situ Xiuyuan's face, and he nodded and said, "Imagination is very rich. ”

Lu Xiyan was eager to try, "What about this?" It's not that a hundred flowers love chrysanthemums, but only chrysanthemums like it. ”

Situ Xiuyuan shook his head when he heard this, lowered his eyes, didn't have the heart to pick a thorn, and couldn't help but sigh, if this was the lady's child herself, would she resolutely give up?

Situ Xiuyuan's face was not very good.

Gu Chushi teased: "Sister Xiyan, your poem doesn't rhyme correctly, and it's incoherent." ”

"Don't you think Brother Hatsumi is the same as me?"

Lu Xiyan was unconvinced, obviously the two of them were about the same, why could this person be praised! And I can't do it, it's obviously the first time, what's wrong with not being able to compose poetry?

Gu Chushi said disapprerovingly: "It's the same, but I'm better than you, it's just that the artistic conception is different." ”

Lu Xiyan was very aggrieved after hearing this, she angrily supported her jaw with both hands, staring at Gu Chushi's actions.

Situ Xiuyuan slapped the ring ruler on the table, making a loud noise, and he said solemnly: "Quiet." ”

The crowd stopped muttering.

"It's a long road, you come."

Situ Xiuyuan pinned his last hope on Lu Manman, hoping that she would not lose the name of the first talented woman in the capital!

Lu Manman put down the brush in her hand, her white fingers slid on the rice paper, she slowly stood up, lowered her head, the appearance of a chicken eating rice, glutinous and glutinous: "The autumn bush is like a potter's house, and the edge of the fence is becoming more and more oblique, not the flower prefers chrysanthemum, and this flower blooms even more flowerless." ”

Situ Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed, his eyes revealed a glimmer of light, and he was overjoyed, and said: "Yes, the poems reveal shallow sorrow, as if the lonely phoenix is groaning, extremely exciting, moving, great!" ”

Lu Manman's face praised him, her face couldn't help but have a slight redness, she looked into his eyes, clear and transparent, she was shy, her feet did not obey, and she sat on the stool with a shake and made a "fluttering" sound.
