Chapter 19 Mind Below

The next day, sunlight shines through the dense layers of foliage to the window of the house in the west courtyard.

Situ Xiuyuan pushed open the window made of tissue paper, looked out, and saw that the housekeeper had been standing at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, and then he realized that it was not too early.

After Situ Xiuyuan was dressed neatly, he walked to the butler unhurriedly, he smiled, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

"Childe, please come with me."

The housekeeper was dressed in a dark Luo robe, with a few elegant bamboo leaves embroidered on it, and he looked a lot younger.

The housekeeper asked Situ Xiuyuan to wait in the courtyard, which was the school where the craftsmen spent a day and a night hurrying out.

The housekeeper pointed to the position of the master of the school and said, "Childe, please sit down and wait for a while, the kitchen is already arranging breakfast, and a maid will bring it in a while." ”

Situ Xiuyuan nodded playfully and said with a smile: "There is a labor housekeeper, so when can I start teaching?" How many people are there? ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he said, "The young master and young ladies will come after breakfast, and please arrange the content of the lesson." ”

The number of Situ Xiuyuan's characters is not a problem, what he is most worried about is the problem of age, wait for the prime minister to arrange all his children for him and let him teach, won't he faint!

"Is there a difference in age?"

He replied 1510: "Between the ages of ten and fifteen, the master said that there will be differences in the knowledge received by the age difference too much, so the master asked the younger master and young lady in the Gongzi Sect Mansion." ”

Situ Xiuyuan seemed to have a stone hanging in his heart to the ground, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, I know." ”

"Childe, please familiarize yourself with the environment first, and the small one will retire first."

After Situ Xiuyuan listened, he waved his hand and signaled that he could go, and the housekeeper bowed and retreated.

Situ Xiuyuan finished breakfast, he took advantage of the fact that the young master and young ladies had not yet come and he was observing the four big pillars, the eaves covered with tiles on the top of the pillars, from the top it was indeed no different from the usual house, but this large pavilion with ventilation on all sides, this is a pavilion for people to rest, and the four corners are covered with thin silk fluttering in the wind, and the junction of the roof and the pillars is decorated with flowers.

The school is surrounded by flower beds, there are flowers and plants to enjoy, fortunately the workers have installed curtains like mats, otherwise the noon sun shining in will not affect the interest of these daughters and sons?

Just as he was thinking about the rationality of the building, a young girl with a body as light and flowing as the petals of a flower in the air walked with small but elegant steps.

The girl wore a slightly simple plain white brocade robe, the embroidery on the clothes was very peculiar, it was embroidered with brown embroidery thread on the fabric of the beautiful and straight branches, the branches were dark green and tender green gradient bamboo leaves, the bamboo leaves extended from the skirt to the waist, a long ink-colored satin tightened the thin waist, showing the slender figure, but also gave people a feeling of weakness.

She was dressed in a blue open gauze dress, her long black hair was scattered, and when the wind blew, it fluttered like a wicker, as if she had come out of a painting.

The girl approached him, and he gradually saw the woman's appearance clearly, her fair skin could be broken by blowing, and her face was amazing.

The girl was facing him, smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly: "You are the master invited by your father?" I thought he was an old man who was older than Uncle Butler! My name is Long Road, what about you? ”

The corners of Situ Xiuyuan's mouth hooked his lips, his face showed a slight joy, and said, "Situ Xiuyuan." ”

"Master, please take a seat, they are coming."

After saying that, Lu Long turned to choose a place to sit down, and she chose the first table on the far right.

Situ Xiuyuan nodded with a smile Looking at the back of this girl, it turned out that there was an embroidered pattern on her gauze dress, which was a white green bamboo, and the embroidery thread revealed colorful colors in the sun, which was very gorgeous.

Situ Xiuyuan sat on the main seat, and before the others came, he opened his mouth to ask her, "The embroidery on the girl's robe was embroidered by herself?" ”

Lu Manman looked at him and nodded.

Situ Xiuyuan couldn't help but sigh: "The girl's embroidery is amazing! ”

Lu Chang lightly opened his lips, "The master praised it falsely, it was my mother who taught it well." ”

He said respectfully, "Really? Are you lucky enough to witness the face of the Prime Minister's wife? ”

Lu Manman's eyelids drooped suddenly, the expression on her face lost her brilliance, and she said glutinously: "My mother just left......"

Situ Xiu saw that the tears in her eyes were about to overflow, and he hurriedly apologized, "Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know, I'm sorry." ”

Situ Xiuyuan suddenly thought that the Prime Minister's Mansion had just finished doing white things, why did he forget it so quickly? Could it be that this girl is the first talented girl in the capital? What is the name of the girl who moved the capital? It seems to be her, it turns out that she is the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion!

It dawned on him that he was doing what he was doing. I don't usually forget so much when I read, why is this brain not good now?

"I'm so embarrassed."

At this point, the two did not speak until the others arrived.

After Situ Xiuyuan finished the morning class, he found that there were really not many people, only three young ladies and one son, and the four of them were quite smart and clever, so he didn't have to worry about whether they could understand or not.

After lunch, Lu Manman came to Situ Xiuyuan's residence alone to look for him.

Situ Xiuyuan was very surprised by the appearance of Lu Manlong, so he asked the girl's intention, "Why is the eldest lady here?" ”

I saw Lu Manman smiling slightly, and said softly: "I want to discuss with the master if I can add an extra place." ”

When Situ Xiuyuan heard that it was a loss-making deal, he wanted to refuse, but under someone else's roof, he couldn't help but bow his head!

He said expressionlessly: "The eldest lady has something to say, so you don't need to discuss it with your subordinates." ”

Lu Long said carefully, "I want to invite the young master of the Gu family to come and listen to the master's teaching, I have already asked my father." ”

Now Situ Xiuyuan doesn't know what expression to put on, why are you looking for him after the prime minister's consent? Can he refuse?

He said suspiciously: "I've already asked the master, why do you want to say it again?" ”

In the face of such a handsome boy as Situ Xiuyuan, Lu Long was really embarrassed to argue with him, so he could only lower his figure, for the sake of embarrassment: "I...... I'm afraid the master will mind. ”

Situ Xiuyuan's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this, this girl is interesting, and she can think about others!

He pretended to be particularly embarrassed: "Oh? So what if you mind? ”

Lu Changman was overwhelmed by the question, this is not the result she needs, can't this person respectfully follow his orders? How did it become like this?

She blinked, was slightly stunned, and frowned, "That'...... Then you can make a request, and the Master can do whatever he wants, just ask the Master to allocate an extra quota to me. ”

Situ Xiuyuan seemed to have achieved his goal, he pointed his smooth and delicate chin with his slender and white index finger, with a look of embarrassment on his face, as if he was cutting love to her, and said: "That's very easy to talk, the eldest lady embroidery is good, I don't know if there is an honor to get a piece of the eldest lady's embroidery?" It just so happens that there is a dress here that is too monotonous, can the eldest lady help? ”

Lu Manman saw him embarrassed, and felt a little guilty about him, and when she heard him say that, she said happily: "That master has agreed?" ”

Seeing her smiling, Situ Xiuyuan nodded silently.

He seemed to be smiling and smug thinking, the plan succeeded, I am afraid that he did not come to the prime minister's mansion to be a fairy!

Lu Manman hurriedly agreed, her fingers closed slightly, she calculated the time and said, "Then I will send it to the master in a few days, just three days, what does the master think?" ”

Lu Manman asked him cautiously, after all, he was asking for help now.

Situ Xiuyuan laughed, his narrowed peach blossom eyes were very charming, and he said in a soft tone: "Okay, the eldest lady will wait for a while, and go down to get the clothes." ”

After a while, Situ Xiuyuan took out a black Luo Yi from the house and handed it to her, and advised, "Eldest Lady, treat it well!" ”

Lu Manman took it and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's a trivial matter, leave it to me!" ”

After saying that, she ran away in an instant.

Situ Xiuyuan watched her easy figure gradually disappear, and couldn't help but think about her smile, thinking, I don't know which lover can enter her eyes.

After Lu Chang took the clothes back to the house and put them away, he left the house with an oil-paper umbrella.

In the middle of summer in July, there is no cloud in the blue sky, and the fiery sun is scorching the earth.

Lu Manman knew that at this moment every day, Gu Chushi would take time to go out for a walk, which was also an opportunity for them to meet.

Sure enough, as soon as I got off the bridge, I saw a handsome boy standing under the willow tree to enjoy the coolness.

Lu Long took a closer look, it was Gu Chushi who was right, his royal blue robe was shining purple under the sun's rays.

Lu Man walked forward with a smile and said glutinously: "Hey, Brother Chushi! ”

Gu Chushi knew that it was a long way to go when he heard the voice, but at this moment, when he went out in the scorching sun, he turned around and frowned: "Sister Lu, why are you here?" You shouldn't have come out on such a hot day. ”

Lu Manman still smiled on his lips, and his red lips closed one by one: "Bring you good news!" ”

Gu Chushi said gently: "Sister Lu, please speak." ”

The pear vortex of the road was lightly sunken, stroked the bamboo pole, and said with a light smile, "Daddy invited a master to come to the house to teach, and I thought about inviting Brother Chushi to listen to the class with me." ”

"Me? Is that possible? ”

Gu Chushi's brows tightened when he heard this, and he thought, rashly go to the Prime Minister's Mansion? Not good!

Lu Manman knew that he would have such an expression, so he said, "Relax, I have already asked my father, and the master is very welcome." ”

After hearing this, Gu Chushi put his mind at ease, nodded and said, "Oh, that's it." ”

She smiled mischievously and whispered in Gu Chushi's ear: "Brother Chushi, tell you quietly, that master is very young, and he is very good at lecturing!" ”

Gu Chushi was a little surprised, the experienced teachers he knew were all older, and he had never heard of young and talented.

He asked, "Young Master?" How big? What's his name? ”

Lu Manman began to describe the appearance of the master, "He is very handsome, elegant and easy-going, very scholarly, and he looks not much older than us, called Situ Xiuyuan." ”

Gu Chushi's eyes lit up after hearing this, his expression was stunned, and he hurriedly explained: "Situ Xiuyuan! He's the top student in this year's palace exam! ”

Lu Man blinked, revealing a look of surprise, and his lips trembled slightly, "Like...... Champion ......"

A soft smile appeared on Gu Chushi's handsome face, and he smiled: "Sister Lu has really helped me a lot!" ”

Lu Manman looked at Gu Chushi very happily, and she joked: "Then how is Brother Chushi going to reward me?" ”

Gu Chushi was not stingy at all, and said directly: "Tomorrow, I will make the ice jade in the house into a bracelet and give it to you, okay?" What color does Sister Lu want? ”

Lu Manman thought that Gu Chushi would not take it seriously, so she muttered in a low voice, "I was just joking, and let Brother Chushi break the bank." ”

His face was full of tenderness, and his eyes were all her, "What else is polite to me?" ”

Lu Long was no longer polite, she said: "Brother Chushi, can you pick a darker one for me?" ”

Gu Chushi stared at Lu Man's white and tender wrist, and after looking at it, he said, "Then it's light green, you have fair skin, and you must look good on your hand." ”

"Then I'll thank Brother Chushi first."

Lu Manman nodded slightly, the oil-paper umbrella drooped slightly, and the smile on her face deepened.
