"It turned out that our university students from the north are here, distinguished guests, distinguished guests, Lin Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a few years, this time I am more and more dignified, come, come, come, fast forward, I don't know if I learned that Lin Gongzi went to the mansion today, and the lord happened to rest in the inner mansion library today, this time it is really too coincidental!"

Facing the enthusiasm of the old man, Lin Xiu paused for a moment, and then immediately recognized this person as Fu Bo, the chief housekeeper of the Chen Mansion, he walked two steps quickly, and stepped forward with his arms stretched out: "Fu Bo, I haven't seen you for a few years, your old body is still so tough!" ”

"What's tough, old is old, not as handsome as you juniors..."

Fu Bo kept laughing, took the gift box in Lin Xiu's hand quickly, and led Lin Xiu to the inner study. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Walking to the back garden, Lin Xiu saw a person standing in the pavilion through the bamboo leaf forest, the person was wearing a white plain dress, his posture was graceful but not bewitching at all, and the wisps of black sideburns were sprinkled on his shoulders at will, so pure and quiet beauty was really evocative.

Fu Bo swept Lin Xiu's expression and smiled secretly: "Lin Gongzi, since you left to enter the school, Miss is like losing her soul, except for this bamboo forest path in the back garden on weekdays, she has never even gone out of the front door hall, and on the day of the Lantern Festival last time, Miss was alone in the house, looking at the clay sculpture you once carved for her in a daze..."

Hearing this, Lin Xiu's heart was surging, and he wanted to go to the past immediately and pour the beautiful woman into his arms, but he just told himself rationally that he must not, and Fu Bo knew the situation, so he immediately alerted: "Lin Gongzi, you and Miss are deeply in love, I know that the lord knows, but Mrs. is prejudiced against you... So now it's better to go to see the lord first, and get the lord's permission, and you are not wrong! ”

"Fu Bo's heart, Lin Xiu is here to thank you!"

"Don't, don't, I'm just doing my duty, Miss went early, and this lady is... Alas..."Fu Bo didn't finish his words, but Lin Xiu knew the meaning, and then, Lin Xiu endured the thoughts in his heart and walked with Fu Bo to the study.

In front of the pavilion, Chen Shuling sat on the stone bench, looking at the green bamboo with fangs in front of him in a daze, and at this time, a childish but deliberately pretending to be old disgusted came out.

"Yo, my sister is so Yaxing today, when will you come to enjoy the bamboo?"

"Chen Tingbi, when do I need you to take care of what I will appreciate?" Chen Shuling's tone was stiff, and the meaning of destruction was completely revealed, behind him, a splendid young man with arrogant eyes who was about twenty years a year and stood in front of the stone steps with his head open, he was the son of the Yu family, and this younger brother was the same as his mother, and such a disgusting arrogant character was completely grown from his bones.

As soon as Chen Tingbi sat down, Chen Shuling had already gotten up and left.

Seeing this, Chen Tingbi bent the wall and took a green bamboo branch, and played with himself: "I said sister, don't you want to know what your brother is doing here?" ”

"What do you have to do with me?"

Chen Tingbi stretched out his hand to pinch off the green bamboo branch in his hand, it seemed that the crisp breaking sound made his heart feel comfortable, looking at his sister with a sullen face, Chen Tingbi said with a low smile: "Of course it matters, and it is a major event in your life!" Sister, don't you want to know at all? Brother, I came to tell you kindly! ”

Hearing this, Chen Shuling's heart trembled, and she suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Chen Tingbi saw Chen Shuling like this, got up and continued: "Yesterday, my mother came back from Lincheng Province and married you a family, he is the nephew of the Xiangcheng County Shou, I heard that he is dignified and erudite, but he is already the treasurer of the county government at the age of twenty, this is a fat difference, if you marry in the past, your future life will be excellent!" ”

"Enough! Shut up! As soon as these words came out, Chen Shuling was directly angry to the point of blood surging with blood, if it weren't for her daughter's family, she would definitely treat this gentlemanly brother with a vulgar courtesy.

Just as Chen Shuling and Chen Biting were smiling and facing each other angrily, Chen Yu's study boy hurriedly ran over.

"Miss, summoned by the master's study!"

Hearing this, Chen Shuling glared at Chen Tingbi angrily, suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around and left with the maid, but Chen Tingbi frowned: "Daddy summoned him to the study?" It's amazing! ”

In the study, Lin Xiu sat upright on the side chair, and after the desk, Chen Yu, the commander of Linshui County, who was nearly fifty years old, said with a smile: "Lin Xiu, I went to school, but it was a bright and right path, I wanted to enter the Shengde test back then, and finally failed to achieve results, you are too much stronger than me, and you deserve the name of the top prize in the four cities and twenty-eight counties in the north." Speaking of this, Chen Yu suddenly remembered something: "If I remember it well, uncle, you are in a weak crown, and you have the name of a disciple of Guozi Academy, I don't know if someone gave me words?" If there is no word, can my uncle do it for me today? ”

Lin Xiu was very relieved in his heart, and immediately got up and bowed his head respectfully: "Uncle Lao is worried, but after the nephew entered the holy virtue, he was diligent and self-encouraged, and he did not dare to relax at any time, so he won the favor of the dean and the master. ”

"Zhong Yi, Lin Zhong Yi!" Chen Yu pondered in a low voice several times, and then his face was radiant: "Lin Xiu, from the word Zhong Yi, you can know that this master attaches great importance to you, but if you give words, if you love your heart, you must take it carefully, in terms of human character, or based on the career of reason and righteousness, this master gave you Zhong Yi, in the eyes of my uncle, there are about two points, one is that the people of my northern Xinjiang are fierce, and the martial arts are still victorious, you are a child of northern Xinjiang, skilled in bows and horses, and you can go in martial arts, this is loyal to the country, and it is also Zhong, and second, my literary style in northern Xinjiang is quite weak, and I want to four cities and twenty-eight counties in the north, Nearly a million people, but the county students are only a few thousand, and the county examination is only a few hundred, you in the name of the county examination champion, this is the Wentu Xingrui, in the future, the academic body, it is also possible to enter the hall, this is the righteousness of the body, but also the same for the Yi, Zhong Yi together, also extended to the loyalty, civil and military complete, is really a great expectation for you, I hope you can be loyal to the country, to righteousness and Confucianism, to be the pillar of a country! ”

Hearing Chen Yu's words, Lin Xiu was like an enlightenment, his ears and eyes were clear, and he immediately clenched his fists: "My nephew is stupid, I never thought that a small word would contain so many expectations of the master, thank you uncle for your advice!" ”

However, Lin Xiu knew it in his heart, and then he said again: "It's just that the world is big, the pillars are at most, Lin Xiu is weak in it, this luck won the favor of the master, Lin Xiu will work hard, win a fame in time, and become famous in the house, this is enough, don't dare to look ahead!" ”

For this answer, Chen Yu stroked his beard and did not say anything, and then, the two talked for a few more words, and a softness came from outside the door.

"I wonder what my father summoned his daughter to here?"

When the words fell, Chen Shuling stepped over the threshold and walked into the house, and when she saw the person on the guest chair in front of her, her body trembled slightly, as if she was a little surprised, and seemed to be a little hesitant.
