Chapter 18: The Legendary Peach Blossom Luck

"What's the objection?"

"Sir, I'm afraid I won't understand!"

"It's okay, it's okay!" Old Master Gong waved his hand, "This book can comprehend as much as you want, you have wisdom, but lack of roots, this book can let you understand why you read, in addition to this book is also a law, can allow you to practice calligraphy, the world only knows the name of Bai Juyi's poems, calligraphy is not important, the words of Xiangshan monks are dignified and atmospheric, suitable for new people to copy, you can carefully figure it out." ”

"Thank you, Master!" Fan Ming bowed deeply.

There was always a sense of gratitude in his heart, which was out of respect for a great profession, perhaps because it was too easy to read, and he had never had such respect for a teacher in that era, and it was only in this environment that he truly understood the true meaning of 'reading the books of the sages' and 'teaching without class'.

After Old Master Gong explained to him the difficult points and allusions in the thousand-character text again, it was already close to dusk, and remembering Xiang Xue'er, who was still waiting for him to return the book, Fan Ming did not delay any longer and got up to leave.

When he arrived at the Caofu compound, the light in the sky was almost completely gone, and the Caofu compound also began to light up the lanterns, to his surprise, the old fortune was not there today, and a young guy was watching the door, and his face was tight, Lin Changfan hesitated whether to come forward to say hello, but the little guy said: "Don't wander here, and don't look at what place this is." ”

Fan Ming stepped forward and said, "Little brother, I'll go in and return the book." ”

The little guy obviously didn't take Fan Ming in his eyes at all, and raised his head slightly, "Is this also where you can enter casually?" ”

Just when he was embarrassed, there was a sound of broken footsteps behind him, and a pretty figure walked over from outside, and it happened to be the maid Xiang Xue'er who had seen that day, carrying something in her hand, which seemed to be bought outside.

After seeing Xiang Xue'er, the little girl instantly lowered her head and listened to her ears, stood aside in a regular manner, and shouted, "Sister Xiangxue." ”

Xiang Xue'er glanced at the situation and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Fan Ming didn't speak, and the little guy said, "This kid wanted to break in, but I didn't agree." ”

Xiang Xue'er nodded, "This is a student of Old Master Gong in the village, who came in to copy books, and don't stop him when he comes in to borrow books in the future." ”

The little guy glanced at Fan Ming secretly, and hurriedly nodded, "Yes." ”

"Fan Wu, let's go in!" Xiang Xue'er twisted her small waist and walked in, while beckoning to him enthusiastically.

"Oh." Ignorantly, he followed Xiang Xue'er's footsteps into the side door.

While walking in, Fan Ming stopped his eyes on Xiang Xue'er's back and buttocks, it was not sweating or wet, the thin shirt Xiang Xue'er was wearing was a little close-fitting, and the outline between her back and hips could be clearly seen.

After walking for a short distance, Xiang Xue'er seemed to feel Fan Ming's burning gaze behind her, suddenly stopped and turned around, and glanced back at him, with a trace of anger in her eyebrows.

Fan Ming's mind suddenly fluttered, this little girl was full of charm at a young age, and she didn't know if she was born or specially cultivated.

Looking at Fan Ming, Xiangxue wrinkled her beauty, puffed out her small mouth and crossed her waist, and said a little angrily: "Fan Wu, where are you looking, don't think that I don't know what is in your stomach, how can people who read books be the same as those wild men, be careful that I ask someone to beat you." ”

Fan Ming was stunned for a moment, and then smiled slightly, he was not afraid of dealing with this kind of little girl, "How do you know that I am looking at you, this shows that your mind has always been on me." ”

"Wow, think beautifully." Xiang Xue'er's beautiful eyes looked back and forth on Fan Ming's body, "Originally, I saw that you were a scholar, and I thought you were quite regular, but I didn't expect to be so flamboyant." ”

Fan Ming smiled, "My Fair Lady and Gentleman, I'm not a flamboyant tongue, besides, the rules also depend on who is right, the master and the elders are to be polite, but if you are always straight face to your friends and peers, wouldn't it make others think that you are very boring, and if you think a little more vicious, people will think that you have bad intentions towards him." ”

Xiang Xue'er tilted her head sideways and thought for a while, "This is a fresh statement, so what do you mean to see me as a red face?" ”

Fan Ming was slightly stunned, and nodded again, "If Miss Xiangxue doesn't mind, of course she can't ask for it." ”

Xiang Xue'er gave him a roll of the eyes with her big eyes, and turned around and left without speaking, but the moment she turned around, her face was slightly red, and her slender hand grabbed her sleeve tightly.

Fan Ming said it unintentionally just now, but it caused a wave in the heart of Xiang Xue'er, the listener.

Maybe in the eyes of people outside, she Xiang Xue'er is the personal maid of the third lady, and her status is even above the management, but in the eyes of others, she is always just an inferior maid, and she is almost close to either a person who tends to be inflammatory, or she is greedy for her beauty, and today this country boy actually said that she is a celebrity.

No one has ever used this kind of word to describe herself, which makes her heart a little messy in an instant, and she doesn't even know how to face this little guy who looks very pleasing to the eye.

Xiangxue's reaction surprised Fan Ming a little, and he didn't seem to be angry, but he ignored him, which seemed to be a little different from the reaction of girls in that era.

But after thinking about it, he understood a little bit that this little girl was pricked in the heart by herself.

Doing work, reading, flirting with maids, it seems that this kind of country life is not bad, it seems that when I was a child at my grandmother's house, I could be so comfortable and presumptuous!

Before he knew it, he was in the study, and Fan Ming remembered that he was here to return the book, took out the book of "Shuowen" from his baggage, handed it to Xiangxue, and said, "You wanted this book that day, thank you." ”

Xiangxue nodded, looking absent-minded, and said casually: "Where to put it, I will take it when I want." ”

Fan Ming didn't think too much about it, put the book back on the shelf, and while looking for the book he wanted to read, he was going to borrow it and read it slowly, the atmosphere couldn't help but be a little silent, and suddenly, Xiangxue suddenly said, "The third lady is back today." ”

"The Third Lady is back?" Fan Ming frowned, of course the third lady knew that the Cao family had a big business, and the usual business was handed over to the third lady to manage, it can be said that the third lady was the big boss on their heads, without the consent of the third lady, even Cao Huchang and Chen Qichang didn't want to be in this position, but what does this have to do with himself, he scratched his head, and asked in a daze: "And then?" ”

Xiangxue hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "Well, there is a shortage of people in the account room in the house, if you want to learn to do accounts, I can help." ”

Fan Ming was stunned for a moment, thinking that this girl was too simple, just teasing her just now and sending her to the door to change her job, is this the legendary peach blossom luck?
