After Liu Chunmiao left, Zeng Rong took the initiative to sit opposite Qin Chuxue, first glanced at the other party timidly, and when he was hesitating how to start, Qin Chuxue replied to her with a very shallow but warm smile, "Something?" ”

"Back to my aunt, Aunt Liu handed me the phoenix-wearing peony dress to embroider, I, I took this job."

There is no way, this matter must not be hidden, and in the end, this finished product has to be sent to this Aunt Qin, rather than when she learns about it from Liu Chunmiao's mouth, it is better for her to admit it herself.

It's just that she seems to be suspicious of standing in line and stepping on it, one is not sure, and it is easy to hurt two people at the same time, so she hesitates, and in order to wash away the suspicion of stepping on, she omits the process and only states the result.

Sure enough, as soon as Qin Chuxue heard this, she suddenly changed color, and spit out three words faintly, "I know." ”

Who knew that when Zeng Rong was waiting for the next article, Qin Chuxue looked down at the woolen insoles in his hands in a daze.

After a while, Zeng Rong saw that the other party still didn't mean to look up, so he had to ask tentatively: "Auntie, did Ah Rong do something wrong?" ”

Qin Chuxue raised her head and said "ah", hesitated slightly, and then said: "No, this is your duty, without you, there will be others." Besides, I brought you to design this pattern in the first place. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zeng Rong to answer, she continued: "Speaking of this trick, I remembered one thing, just now you said, you are from the countryside, and your family is very poor, but I think you seem to have read poetry and books to learn a lot, why is this?" ”

"My aunt praised it, I just happened to live in the academy for a few days and learned a little bit from others." After Zeng Rong finished speaking, he specially learned a rough idea of his experience in the past few months living in the academy, omitting the cause and effect, and also omitting Ouyang Si's age.

Seeing that the other party listened with relish, Zeng Rong specially picked a few interesting things, such as digging herbs in the mountains with his sister, picking up wild eggs and baking wild eggs, fishing in the mountain stream with his sister, and learning embroidery with Granny Liu.

"Oh, and what herbs do you know?" Qin Chuxue asked.

Zeng Rong reported several of the most common herbs in the mountains over there, and Qin Chuxue asked her about the use of these herbs, although Zeng Rong was surprised, he knew everything.

"Have you seen someone else?"

Zeng Rong shook his head, "No, someone was bitten by a poisonous snake, and the two of us sisters helped with first aid, and my sister once caught a cold, and I cooked some honeysuckle water for her to drink." ”

Qin Chuxue was overjoyed when she heard this, and was about to ask Zeng Rong how he entered Beijing and what his relationship was with the Xu family, when Liu Chunmiao's voice sounded in the courtyard outside, calling Xiaocui to go out to pick up things, Qin Chuxue had to change her mind and order Zeng Rong to help.

When Zeng Rong went out, Liu Chunmiao was sending two eunuchs back, she was carrying two food boxes in her hand, Xiaocui was carrying a basket of charcoal in her hand, and Zeng Rong took a food box from Liu Chunmiao's hand.

Liu Chunmiao carefully observed Zeng Rong's face before handing over the things, but didn't ask anything.

After entering the house, Xiaocui was busy using a small tandoor to make a charcoal fire, while Zeng Rong helped Liu Chunmiao to put out the contents of the food box, including cut mutton slices, and four kinds of vegetarian dishes, such as radish slices, cabbage, tofu, yuba, etc.

What puzzled Zeng Rong was that Liu Chunmiao still did not stay at this meal, after the meal, Qin Chuxue ordered Xiaocui to make a pot of tea and drink with Zeng Rong, this time the topic she provoked was poetry, she asked Zeng Rong what his favorite poetry was, and who his favorite poet was.

Zeng Rong didn't dare to show off, bowed his head and muttered for a while, and replied: "Aunt Hui, I haven't read many poems, most of them are read selectively, for embroidery, and later, although I also want to improve my cultivation, but the conditions are limited." ”

"Oh, how are the conditions limited?"

"One is that the time is not free, I want to embroider during the day, I can only look at it a few times at night, and the second is that I have never formally entered school, and I can ask others for a lesson or two if I don't understand something outside the palace before, but when I enter the palace, there is no suitable person around me to teach me, I can only explore it blindly."

"Oh, then you recite the song "Lonely Goose" to me, I want to know, how do you feel the word sadness in the lyrics?"

When Zeng Rong heard it, he had to recite "Lonely Goose" again, "Back to my aunt, although I don't know much about the background of Yi'an Jushi writing this poem at that time, but the words 'urging a thousand lines of tears' and the last two sentences 'blow the flute people go to the Yulou empty, and the intestines are broken and leaning on whom." A branch is broken, and there is no one in the world and heaven who can send it. I can still understand it, that is to say, she is a lonely person, whether it is dead or alive, there is nothing that makes her miss or nostalgic, such a life, I think, I can't think of a better interpretation except for the word sadness. ”

"'Neither dead nor alive, there is nothing for her to miss or cherish', what should be the interpretation of this?" Qin Chuxue asked, obviously not agreeing with Zeng Rong's point of view.

"Back to my aunt, if I don't understand this, it should be her husband, the person goes to the empty building, it must be gone, I think, between her and her husband, there must have been something bad happened before her death, otherwise, with her thoughts of her husband, she could have sent this plum blossom to her husband in the sky, but she said 'no one can send it', from her early works, it can be seen that their husband and wife relationship is very good, as for why it came to this point later, I don't know very well."

In fact, Zeng Rong still knows Li Qingzhao well, and she is not less embarrassed by her life encounters, and she also guessed that the Aunt Qin in front of her must be very respectful of this female lyricist, but what she doesn't know is whether this Aunt Qin has also suffered Li Qingzhao-style betrayal, so when she sees the two phoenixes standing side by side drawn by Zeng Rong, she suddenly loses her manners, so she doesn't dare to say some things too thoroughly.

Rao is so, her words are enough to make Qin Chuxue suspicious, a little girl who is only twelve years old, actually understands what husband and wife feelings are, with just a dozen words can read a wife's disappointment and grievances towards her husband, it seems that a person's understanding and background really have little to do with it.

You must know that Zeng Rong has never officially entered school, but only by groping by himself can he say this.

Could it be that this child was specially sent to her by God?

With the Xu family as a backer, he is smart and clever, and it is rare that he still understands a little pharmacology, but the only pity is that his background is too low.

But then again, the background is not low, and it can't be sent to her, so maybe he will go directly to the palace.

How exactly is she going to do this?

Also, what is the purpose of the Xu family?

Qin Chuxue fell into a tangle again.
