"That's right, this woman is not simple, although she is a daughter, she is familiar with the art of war, Wen Taowu strategy, and more importantly, her identity, the princess of the distant tribes. It is not so much that His Highness is jealous of her, but that there are some places that have to rely on her. Hey, actually, His Highness is much more difficult than us. ”

Zhu Lian said, a layer of fog appeared in her beautiful eyes, why didn't she want to be by His Royal Highness's side, just like when she was in Kaifeng Mansion, one stood in front to show off her might, and the other came up with ideas in the back.

Whenever her heart is not quiet, Zhu Lian likes to go to a place with few people, if she is in the capital, she will go to the south of the Bianhe River, if she is in Fuxiang, she will go to Tanshui Lake. Now I think of that person again, and my mind is confused, so I want to go out for a walk. Along the west bank of the Bianhe River, looking at the bustling crowd opposite, Zhu Lian was in a trance, how good would it be if he could live as carefree as these people? Walking and walking, I unconsciously came to the wooden bridge again.

The winter wind is not as cold as Guanzhong, the small bridge is flowing water, the elegant courtyard, there are a few naughty children blocking the door, a little girl combing two maids, a small mouth, revealing two big teeth, maybe it's a little cold, the little girl opened her mouth, and the snot flowed out, "Sister Xuan'er, you promised to give candy to eat, give it quickly, if you don't give it to us, you have to call Mr. to evaluate it." ”

"Ah, sister forgot, little broad bean, is this good, I will definitely buy it tomorrow, double it for you, is it okay?"

"Sister Xuan'er, don't deceive people, pull the hook hook" The little broad bean tiptoed and stretched out a dirty finger, Xuan'er put down the things in her arms, squatted down and pulled the hook with the little broad bean.

These naughty children have been learning with Master Li these days, when Master Li lived here at first. Most of the neighbors didn't want to talk to her. But it's been a long time. The neighbors also know a little bit about this teacher. Although she looks a little cold and arrogant, she has a really good temperament, especially teaching children to read and write for free, which is a good thing for the people around her. Lizhoufang, where Master Li lives, is not a rich area, it can only be barely considered medium, and most of the people living around it are small traders. Most of the children of these families are not allowed to attend private schools. But fortunately, they are all responsible people here, and they don't want to be in Nancheng, there are many scoundrels, so Master Li lives here quite at ease. During the day, I have nothing to teach the naughty boy to read and write, and I do some embroidery in my spare time.

Life is always a little hard, so the teacher wondered if he could do something else, Bianliang and Luoyang are surrounded by rich families, and rich families love vassal elegance. The teacher knew this very well, so she planned to put some thought into this aspect. Waiting for the spring of next year, I will plant some peony flowers in the yard. As long as the flowers are well conditioned, the income is also expensive, which is always better than those embroidery.

Xuan'er sent the urchins away, then pushed the door and ran into the courtyard, where the master was wearing a blue coarse coat and holding a feather duster in his hand. The New Year is approaching, go to the old and welcome the new, the people of Bianliang have the habit of cleaning the dust years ago, in fact, cleaning the dust, just means to sweep away the previous unhappiness. The master wiped everything in the house, and personally cut some festive things, and after some cleaning, he finally had the appearance of a home.

Speaking carefully, it is the first time for the teacher to celebrate a real year, and he used to celebrate the New Year, but he didn't celebrate it for himself, so it's always a pity. Although there are only her and Xuan'er in this family, it is better to get through Yuelou.

Outside the courtyard, Zhu Lian looked at Yiqiē in the low wall with a smile, this Master Li is getting more and more adapted to the current life, but does she really think that she can live peacefully like this in this life? Some women want to be vigorous but can't, and some women want to be safe but impossible. Master Li belongs to the latter, a peerless red face, talented and beautiful, like such an excellent woman, it is too difficult to leave the sight of others, the reputation of the official family can only be suppressed for two years, at most only three years, waiting for those people to be sure that the official family has forgotten Master Li, they will not be able to wait to pounce.

Outside the post on the side of the broken bridge, lonely and ownerless. It was already dusk and I was alone, and it was even more windy and rainy.

has no intention of fighting for spring, and a group of people are jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before.

A song of Lu You's "Fortune Operator", how many lives are helpless, plum blossoms bloom in winter, small bridges cross, flowing water gurgling, is Master Li plum blossoms? She is, how can she, a woman, be able to stop the torrent of this earthly world?

Walking into the small courtyard, Xuan'er had sharp eyes, and when she saw someone coming, she hurriedly shouted into the house, "Sister Li, Sister Li, Mrs. Zhu is here." ”

Why did Mrs. Zhu come here at this time? The teacher frowned in confusion, she thought that she had no friendship with Mrs. Zhu, but during these days, the lady often came, and sometimes brought some food and tea, as if she had made a special trip to visit. Throwing down the feather duster in his hand, he told Xuan'er to make a pot of tea, and the master wiped his hands and went out. I haven't seen her for a few days, and the eldest lady is still the same as in the past, and she can't see any changes.

"Lady, why did you come to the slave house at this time?"

"Hehe, what's the matter, come to the master to take a look, do you have to pick a day?" Zhu Lian entered uninvited, looking at the spotless furnishings in the room, she also had to admire Master Li's skillful hands. As the head of the Oiran line that was once famous in the capital, it is really unexpected to be able to do laundry, cook, and embroider like an ordinary woman. Others don't know, anyway, Zhu Lian feels that if he is himself, he will definitely not be able to do this. Touching the smooth desktop, Zhu Lian said with a smile, "The master is becoming more and more like a woman, if any man marries you, it will be a blessing." ”

"Lady don't want to make fun of the slave family, most of the men in this world are busy people, which one has the courage to cover the sky?" The teacher smiled self-deprecatingly, why didn't she yearn for a man? But most of the things she likes don't look down on her, and the ones she doesn't look down on pounce on like dogs, which of those people didn't come for her appearance?

An official family, a king of Yongning County, every time she thinks of these uncles and nephews, the teacher feels disgusted, she feels that she is dirty and despicable. It's also curious, how did the eldest lady survive, the regret of marriage was all over the city, and almost the entire Great Song Dynasty knew that the king of Yongning County was angry and married the daughter of the dart master and the woman of the Qinglou, wasn't she angry at all?

Xuan'er brought tea, the two sat opposite each other, Zhu Lian said some interesting things that happened in the capital recently, and the teacher listened carefully, and occasionally smiled faintly. Seeing that Zhu Lian was in a good mood, the teacher finally asked the question that had been going on for many days, "Lady, I have always had a question for you, I don't know how you survived after so many incidents?" ”

After taking a sip of tea, Zhu Lian looked at the master with a smile and said softly, "What did the master say about regretting the marriage?" ”

"Exactly, this question is a bit abrupt, if the lady doesn't want to say, she hasn't asked since she was a teacher, so there is no need to force it" The teacher added, because she felt that it was still rare in the world to be willing to talk about this kind of thing.

Zhu Lian didn't care much, she stretched her eyebrows, looking very calm, "There's nothing that can't be said, in fact, it's not a good way, just do what you don't do." ”

The teacher naturally didn't believe it, how could it be considered that what had happened had not happened? How did she know that Zhu Lian really didn't lie to her.

Master Li wants to find a way to forget the past, and he is destined to find the wrong person, although he has also experienced an unforgettable thing, but one is fake and the other is true, how can he treat it the same?

"Master, have you been doing a peaceful life lately? I've heard that there are a lot of people who come to harass teachers these days! ”

Listening to Zhu Niang's words, the master was stunned, and then looked at Xuan'er next to her, Xuan'er also looked very inexplicable, someone came to harass her, why didn't their master and servant know it? Xuan'er was puzzled, but the teacher quickly figured it out, she still wondered why she had been here for two years, but there were no scoundrels who came to sprinkle, it turned out that she was driven away early.

Who will help her Master Li? Who can there be but the eldest lady, but why does the eldest lady help her like this?

"Lady, why do you always help the teacher? In this way, the teacher always feels that he owes the lady, so if the lady has something, she will say it directly, and the teacher will feel better! Master Li said this, which means that Zhu Niangzi has some purpose, which makes Zhilan very angry, and wants to open her mouth to tease her, Zhu Lian has already opened her mouth first, "Master doesn't have to think about it, Zhu Lian is doing this, it is definitely not for anything, as for the reason, the master will know later." ”

Zhu Lian's expression didn't seem to be fake, if she was solemn, it would be difficult for anyone to doubt the words she said. The teacher was even more puzzled, if there was no plan, what was the reason, the teacher really couldn't think of any other reason for Zhu Lian to help her like this.

"Lady, if you do this, the teacher really deserves it!"

Zhu Lian frowned lightly, this Master Li is also too serious, isn't it good to live a good life, why bother looking for the truth in everything? Seeing Zhu Lian frowning, Zhilan was naturally very displeased, snorted, and said, "The lady is not doing so much for you, but you are self-inflicted and take yourself too seriously." ”

Zhilan was straightforward, Zhu Lian couldn't stop it, she turned her head and glared at Zhilan unhappily, "You talk too much, don't go out yet." ”

"Oh!"

Zhilan pouted and walked out of the room, and it didn't take long for Zhu Lian to lead Zhilan out of the small courtyard. However, the speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, Zhilan's words made the teacher fall into contemplation, not for her, then for whom, who is worthy of such a big lady? There are too many doubts in my heart that need to be solved, but there are some questions that the eldest lady will not tell no matter how you ask them. (To be continued......)
