While gossiping, Ke Mingxu took Jinghu into a courtyard. There are a lot of orchids in the courtyard, some of which have begun to bloom in the season, while others are still green.

In the courtyard, there is also the scenery of rockery and plain flowing water, moss on the stone, winding paths are secluded, quite interesting.

Ke Mingxu stopped and explained to Jinghu, "There are many men walking around in the academy, for fear of abruptly abruptly the little county lord. In the end, it is set up for business, and for the small county owner, it is about a little boring. ”

"This is the courtyard where the teacher usually lives in the academy, no one else will come, and it is also the best scenery in the academy. The little county lord might as well rest here for a while, and when I finish my work, I will come over to find the little county lord and send you back to the Yongning County Palace. ”

"If you're tired, I'll have someone bring tea over, and the little county lord can also sit in the room."

Jinghu appropriately expressed her well-behaved, "Master Xiao Ke just needs to do his own thing, I'm not in a hurry." It's rare to see so many orchids, and I just want to enjoy them. ”

Ke Mingxu didn't say anything more, nodded with her, turned around and walked out of the courtyard.

knew that he was going to leave her here alone, so she brought Baolan in, and was still waiting at the gate of the academy.

She said that she wanted to appreciate orchids, but in fact, she didn't know how to distinguish orchids. Although in the early years, the mother concubine also specially invited a female official with mercury poisoning to teach her how to distinguish famous flowers and how to arrange flowers for tasting, she did not learn at all.

It's just orchids, what do you have to do to separate you, mine, three, six, nine, etc. To appreciate a flower, but also to appreciate the color of the flower, the shape of the flower, and then drag some sour words, otherwise it will not be over, she is really bored.

She had an impression of such a thing when the third prince and the fourth prince chose the princess the year before last. At that time, the peony flowers in the palace bloomed the best, and she went into the palace to see Zhenning, who said that a flower viewing party was being held in the imperial garden, and she was actually choosing a concubine for the princes.

Jinghu naturally couldn't help but join in the fun, sneaked into the peony garden, and heard a few little ladies talking, that is, talking about these boring things. Then she went back to the palace with Zhenning early.

Originally, a good piece of purple and red, the peony with a natural fragrance was evaluated by others, and he deliberately wanted to show off his talent, which was really unappetizing.

What she doesn't want to learn, she will never be able to learn.

Ke Mingxu left, and since she said that she should be allowed to walk around here, she also went shopping. In addition to some very common varieties, she also recognized the first product of Song Jinxuanmei that Ke Mingxu gave her in the past, and she didn't know if there was anything here.

However, now is not the flowering period of Song Jinxuanmei, and she can't tell the difference just by looking at the leaves. After admiring a few pots of flowering orchid grass and taking a turn in the yard, Jinghu couldn't help but feel a little bored.

Give her a deck of dominoes, even if she doesn't play, she can feel interesting by touching this and that, and she can sit for an afternoon. But if it's flower viewing, she really can't do it.

There was no sunlight in the courtyard at this time, and she felt a little cold after standing outside for a long time, so after thinking about it, she decided to go to the house to sit.

As soon as I entered the door, I first saw a painting hanging on the nave. It's not a painting, it's just a blank scroll. Ke Mingxu said that this was his teacher's courtyard, so the layout here should have always been his teacher's favorite.

What a strange person. Since he is a great Confucian in the world, at least the calligraphy should be good, even if he writes two words and hangs it, it is better than now.

The other furnishings are mediocre and invaluable. This old gentleman Zhou is also the descendant of the eldest princess of Chong'an, and he doesn't even have a few good antiques in the house he lives in. Maybe this is a strange literati.

is also a descendant of the eldest princess of Chong'an, and there are several interesting things in the Songhe Hall of Mrs. Zhou of the Dingguo Mansion. She's got a cup of hazy moon porcelain.

After turning around, he didn't think it was interesting, so Jinghu sat down by the window. There was a teapot and a cup on the table, and Jinghu poured a cup of tea for himself.

She didn't walk around the courtyard for a long time, and the temperature of the tea was just right, and it was a good Pu'er tea. Usually in the house, if she eats too much greedily, her mother will ask Mama Zhao to make her a pot of Pu'er, just to eliminate food.

Perhaps this is also Ke Mingxu's carefulness.

Since the last time he was scalded by tea, Jinghu drank tea again, and he was a little cautious.

Even the maid in her house was a little frightened every time she served her tea, and she had to tell her to drink it slowly before she was willing to give her the teacup.

Jing Hu slowly drank the teacup, felt that it was not enough, and poured himself another cup. I drank half of it, but I couldn't drink it anymore, and I felt a little bored, so I simply dipped it in tea and scribbled on the small machine.

She doesn't like to read and write, and she draws patterns of dominoes. It was the first time she wiped dominoes, and the appearance of winning cards. It's been a long time, but it has a special meaning for her, and she remembers it clearly.

After painting for a long time, she gradually felt a little tired, and she often felt a little irritable for a while, and in the middle of the night she had to pull the maids in to wipe the dominoes, and she didn't sleep well for several nights.

Lying on the small machine, I fell asleep in a hazy way.

“…… This girl is using my little machine as her poker table. ”

"The little county lord is young and ignorant, so don't worry about her. If this trace can't be removed, I'll accompany you to choose a good piece of wood and make another one in the future. ”

Although their voices were deliberately lowered, Jinghu still felt a little noisy, frowned, and suddenly remembered that he was in Songshi Academy, and was immediately startled and sobered up.

When she opened her eyes, she saw two men, an old man and a young man, both bent over, looking at the patterns she had drawn on the small machine by the light outside the window.

Seeing her wake up suddenly, both of them maintained their posture, as if they had forgotten to move.

Jinghu sat up straight and stared at them for a while, Ke Mingxu and the old man stood up, and he introduced her, "This is my teacher, the mountain chief of the academy, Mr. Zhou." ”

Jinghu glanced at him, and then realized that he was a junior, and he should greet his teacher first.

She hurriedly stood up and saluted him, "I've seen Mr. Zhou." ”

His mother is the eldest princess of Chong'an, and she has half of the Jing family's bloodline, and they can still be more or less related, and her father can call him a cousin.

He didn't react, instead staring at her. Ignoring her, he turned back to talk to Ke Mingxu first, "Her father and my sister's eldest man had a good time, and it was common in the past. I didn't expect to give birth to such a beautiful daughter. ”

"In my opinion, it's similar to the little countryman in my sister's house."

Jinghu didn't like others to compare her with Huaiyi Township, and the next moment, the old man turned his head and said something that pleased her.

"I think I'm a good match for you."
