Mrs. Qi's summer village has a large garden with many flowers and trees. However, the flowers and plants are all transplanted from the mountains, and they are not famous products.

After breakfast, Qingshu accompanied Mrs. Gu to the yard to eat, and saw someone wanting to go down to the pond.

Qing Shu looked at a few people with some curiosity: "Do they want to dig lotus root to eat?" ”

Mrs. Gu said: "Your aunt is going to make lotus leaf chicken, this is to let people go down to pick lotus leaves." ”

Looking at the two servants in the pond picking a large handful of lotus leaves, Qingshu smiled and said, "Grandma, you don't need so many lotus leaves to be a lotus leaf chicken, right?" ”

Old Mrs. Gu: "Your aunt likes to drink lotus leaf porridge, and Zhuangzi will dry the lotus leaves at this time of year." ”

Qingshu said seriously: "Grandma, I think you should learn from your aunt." ”

Mrs. Qi has been living a lot of life this day. Wake up every morning and box; Listen to a book or watch a play in the morning; In the afternoon, listen to the piano, play chess or listen to music. The dishes served for three meals a day are not only delicious, but also very beautiful.

Qingshu thought that when she was old in the future, she would definitely enjoy life like Mrs. Qi.

Old Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Your aunt also asks about business matters on weekdays, and she doesn't have to worry about other things, just enjoy her happiness with peace of mind." ”

It's not like her, the heart that can't be.

Qingshu was silent and said, "Grandma, when I grow up, you won't have to be so tired." ”

Mrs. Gu shook her head: "It's actually good to be tired, I'm afraid I'm afraid that I have nothing to do alone." ”

Gu Xian was reluctant to come to the Gu Mansion to visit her because of gossip, and she didn't like her to go over, and Gu Heping and her two children were not close to her. During that time, it was very lonely to live alone in a huge mansion, and those days were boring.

Qingshu hugged Mrs. Gu and said, "Grandma, don't worry, An An and I will always be with you." ”

Old Mrs. Gu touched her head and smiled: "Qingshu, when you get to Mr. Fu, you must eat and sleep on time, and don't study too late." ”

"Grandma, don't worry! With Jiao Xing, the little housekeeper watching, I think she won't agree to sleep late. ”

Old Lady Gu smiled.

When the two returned to the main courtyard, they saw Han Xiang bringing a plate of lychees. Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "This lychee was just delivered, and it tastes good." Qingshu, you can bring a basket when you go to Mr. Fu's orchard. ”

Lychees are picked without ice cubes, and they will change color the next day. So, the farther north you go, the more expensive it is.

"Okay."

Mrs. Qi also told Qingshu to let her learn things from Fu Ran, so she sent her out with Mrs. Gu.

Qing Shu got into the carriage and turned around, but still didn't see Gu Xian's figure, showing disappointment.

Mrs. Qi watched the carriage disappear in front of her, and she said to Mrs. Gu: "Sanniang, in the future, Gu Xian should be scolded and punished, and you can't indulge her because you feel distressed." You don't love her, you hurt her. ”

It was also Qingshu who went to Fu Ran's to study, otherwise, even if Gu Xian's situation was special now, she would not agree to Qingshu leaving Zhuangzi.

Old Lady Gu looked ashamed.

Mrs. Qi shook her head and said, "Not only Gu Xian, but also Gu Heping, you didn't teach it well. Now God gives you another chance, don't repeat the mistakes of the past. ”

"Don't think about her, for Qingshu and An An, I can't follow her anymore."

Mrs. Qi hummed and said, "Qingshu, this child is well-behaved and obedient, the key is to be intimate with you." ”

Every time she saw Qingshu hugging Mrs. Gu intimately, her eyes were very hot. This grandson is just not as intimate as his granddaughter.

Old Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Don't be greedy for me, the two nieces and daughters-in-law are still young, and you will be able to hold your granddaughter sooner or later." ”

Mrs. Qi was a little anxious: "No, I have to write a letter to urge me." Otherwise, who knew that Ma Yue in the Year of the Monkey could add a granddaughter to me! ”

Mrs. Gu said with a smile: "People write letters urging their sons and daughters-in-law to give birth to a grandson as soon as possible, but you might as well do the opposite." ”

Qingshu went directly to the fruit farm, but did not go to Fu's house.

Sitting in the carriage, Qingshu thought about it and asked Shen'er: "Sister Shen'er, it's about to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, why do you want to go to the fruit farm?" ”

Shen'er didn't hide it from Qingshu, and said to her: "Mrs. and grandmother want Mr. to marry Sun Tongzhi, but Mr. is unwilling and unwilling to quarrel with them, and when the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, Mr. will go back for the holiday." ”

Qing Shu had heard Old Lady Gu mention this before: "Then Sun Tongzhi hasn't continued for so long?" ”

Shen'er nodded: "He said that he would not marry Mr. Fei in this life, no matter how long it takes, he is willing to wait." ”

Qingshu sighed, and said no more. I don't know if this person is sincere.

Shen'er reminded Qingshu: "Just know about this, don't do it in front of Mr." ”

On that day, in order to avoid this Sun Tongzhi, Mr. ran to Taifeng County. I didn't expect that more than a year has passed, and I still haven't avoided it.

Qingshu laughed and said, "Why am I mentioning this?" This is a private matter for the gentleman, and I am sure she will take care of it. ”

Shen'er is not a person who talks much, but the people of the Fu family have been forcing Fu Ran to marry, which makes her very dissatisfied. Therefore, she couldn't help but complain: "The girl doesn't know, not only the wife and grandmother, but also the other wives and grandmothers of the Fu family always persuade Mr. to marry that grandson." The gentleman kept refusing, but they seemed to not understand people. ”

Qingshu smiled and said, "I think they are just jealous, and Mr. Jealousy is living freely." Therefore, I want to drag her into the sea of suffering. ”

Shen'er listened to it fresh, and when she thought about it, she felt that it made sense.

When we arrived at the fruit farm, it was already afternoon.

Fu Ran asked, "Qingshu, do you read the book by yourself or continue the class?" ”

Qingshu naturally chose to go to class: "By the way, sir, can I let the master also live in Zhuangzi?" ”

She persuaded Master Duan to move to Fucheng with his wife and children to continue teaching her martial arts.

Fu Ran smiled and said, "Of course, you can have someone send him a letter later." ”

In the evening, after dinner, Fu Ran and Qingshu said, "Let's go for a walk in the mountains." ”

The road from Zhuangzi to Guolin is very smooth. From here alone, it can be seen that Fu Ran likes this Zhuangzi very much. Otherwise, the road would not have been built so well.

Fu Ran said to Qingshu as he walked: "When I was in Fucheng before, I would come here in summer to escape the heat. ”

It's cool and clean here, and I came here to escape the heat and escape the forced marriage at home.

The two came to a jujube grove. Qingshu asked Shen'er to pick a jujube and took a bite: "Sir, this jujube is not very sweet." ”

Fu Ran looked at her childlike appearance, and said with a smile: "Your dates look red, but in fact, they are just red skins, and they will not really ripen until after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and at that time, these dates will be very sweet." ”

Qingshu wanted to eat peaches: "Sir, do you grow peaches here?" ”

Fu Ran shook his head and said: "I don't like to eat peaches and plums, so I don't plant them, if you want to eat them, I'll let people buy them for you." ”

Qingshu shook his head and said, "No need." It's too wasteful to buy so many fruits on Zhuangzi. ”

Fu Ran nodded, smiled and said to Qingshu: "When this red date is ripe, it will be taken to the market or dried and sold, or made into candied fruit." As long as it tastes good, it can be sold at a good price. ”
