Chapter 156: Choosing Flowers
Ruan Mingyu asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Li Jingshan looked at the page of the sketch fixedly, it was Meng Shu's. She remembered that when Ruan Mingyu came to her, she was about to see Zhuang Runqing's drawing, which meant hidden affection. She guessed that this hidden affection might be for Meng Shu.
However, when I saw Meng Shu's sketch at this time, I was unexpected.
Meng Shu's brushstrokes have always been delicate, painting a pear blossom, for the meaning of the flower, she only accompanied a poem: the rain hits the pear blossom and closes the door.
Li Jingshan watched silently, from this poem, she couldn't see whether Zhuang Runqing was happy with Meng Shu, but she could see Meng Shu's disheartened state of mind because of infatuation.
Alas, although he and Ruan Mingyu have an unclear future, they are finally happy with each other. Why are the friends around me all having a bumpy love road? Ye Qing is the most complete, and now he is also suffering from the separation of the two places.
"What are you sighing for?"
"Ruan Mingyu." Li Jingshan looked up at him.
"Well, what do you want to say?" Li Jingshan rarely calls him by name like this, and every time she starts like this, there must be something important to say.
"What if your family doesn't agree with us being together?" Li Jingshan threw out this heavy question.
"Then let's elope." Ruan Mingyu is serious.
"How's that going to work!" Li Jingshan suddenly sat up straight, "Your Ruan family will split you, and I can't leave my mother and younger brother behind." ”
After speaking, when he saw Ruan Mingyu's narrow smile, he realized that he had been tricked. She was so annoyed that she curled up her fist and slammed it into Ruan Mingyu's chest, "People are serious!" ”
The fist was intercepted by Ruan Mingyu, raised to the lips and pecked.
"I'm serious, too." He smiled, "I just say this to reassure you, I only recognize you as a person in my life, even if I want to elope with you, I will never go with another woman." But we're never going to get there. ”
He hugged Li Jingshan's shoulders hard, "I'll figure out how to do these things, you don't have to worry about it." You just have to be yourself. ”
Li Jingshan looked at Ruan Mingyu quietly, and suddenly settled down.
"Why did you suddenly remember to ask this?" Ruan Mingyu continued to look through the album, "Is it because spring is coming, or is it because I see that even the flowers and plants are showing love?" ”
Li Jingshan thought about it and briefly talked about the ups and downs of several friends around her. Ruan Mingyu put his arm behind his head and said lightly, "Everyone has their own fate, and they can't ask for it." He also advised: "Other people's affairs, you can meddle if you want." But you don't care about the affairs of the county lord of Anping. It's not something you can handle. Do you understand? ”
Li Jingshan opened her mouth to say something, but finally nodded obediently.
When he arrived at the nursery in the northern suburbs, Ruan Mingyu personally helped Li Jingshan get out of the car. As far as the eye can see, the garden is full of spring. This is the largest nursery in the capital, most of the flowers in the capital are planted here, and large families often come here to buy flowers and trees. There are also half-grown children carrying flower baskets and shuttling through the flow of people to sell flowers.
"Young master, buy a flower for your beloved girl to wear."
"Childe, put a flower on your lady."
Li Jingshan's face was flushed, Ruan Mingyu laughed, and bought two hibiscus flowers, which were hairpinned on Li Jingshan's sideburns.
Against her reddened face, it is even more delicate.
Ruan Mingyu tilted his head to look at her and sighed with a smile: "The beauty laughs at the water." ”
The two walked hand in hand in the garden, the man's jade tree was in the wind, and the woman's delicate and demure attracted the attention of all the way. Li Jingshan was a little embarrassed at first, but when she saw Ruan Mingyu being generous, and even a little smug, she relaxed and wandered with him in the sea of flowers.
After Li Jingshan stood still in the nursery, picked out the flowers, and looked up at Ruan Mingyu, he saw that he had walked to the flower garden not far away at some point, and was talking to a middle-aged man.
Li Jingshan's eyes froze, that person was actually Yue Zangfeng.
Yue Zangfeng wore his regular clothes today, and his fierce momentum was a little tighter, and he looked like an ordinary rich man, but his expression was still cold from thousands of miles away.
Ruan Mingyu said a few words to him, said goodbye to him with a smile, and Shi Shiran walked back.
"It turns out that you have a friendship with Ouchi's Yue Zangfeng." Li Jingshan asked.
Ruan Mingyu raised his eyebrows, "You even recognize him?" Have you seen him at Si Zhen Fang? ”
Li Jingshan shook her head and talked about the chance encounter in the palace. Ruan Mingyu looked at Li Jingshan's angry and helpless expression, and said with a smile, "He is quite old-fashioned and strict. Therefore, the popularity in the palace is not good. If you don't like it, treat him as a fart and ignore him. ”
Saying this, Li Jingshan was a little sneering, "Actually, what he said is not completely unreasonable......
"This man is very talented." Ruan Mingyu smiled and said, "He has been in charge of the palace for many years, and he has never made a big mistake in dozens of banquets and festivals every year. It is evident that it has the means and capabilities. And,"
Although he doesn't care about the business of the private Si Zhen Fang, Si Zhen Fang is still his biggest proprietor, and it is also a signboard that he supports. Therefore, Jingbao Pavilion has entered the market of the eunuchs, and it will definitely conflict with Si Zhenfang. In the coming day, he will definitely be our strongest opponent. ”
"Are you afraid of him?" Li Jingshan asked.
Ruan Mingyu smiled slightly, "I was a little scared before. Not afraid now. ”
Li Jingshan looked at him suspiciously.
"Because I have you now." Ruan Mingyu pulled a lock of her broken hair behind her ear, "Don't be presumptuous, although you are not as good as him now, don't forget that you are like the rising sun, and he has passed the middle of the sky, and the sun is shining." You will surpass him one day. ”
He smiled smugly, "Ruan Sanshao, the most poisonous thing about me is these eyes, I have never missed them." You too. ”
Li Jingshan was also amused by his confidence. The two walked forward arm in arm, looking down and picking up the flowers and trees.
In the distance, a plain-clothed woman gently tugged at the sleeve of the brocade-clothed boy beside her, "Mingye, don't you see the third brother over there?" ”
The brocade-clothed boy was Ruan Mingyu's second brother Ruan Mingye, and the woman next to him was his wife Li Wanru, who had not passed through the door. He turned his head and said with a smile, "Isn't that kid still free to accompany the beautiful woman to the flower market?" I'm going to get him and come and give you a salute. ”
"Don't." Li Wanru stopped and said, "I don't know which famous lady that girl is, don't rashly ruin your brother's good deeds." ”
Ruan Mingye looked at it carefully, and suddenly frowned: "No, that girl is wearing the costume of a student from Tianqiao Hall...... My brother actually hooked up with a female disciple? ”
"Huh? Is that so? Li Wanru also knew the Ruan family's family rules, and said suspiciously: "Third Young Master, this is ...... What kind of fuss are you going to make? ”
Li Wanru also frowned secretly. I know that I can't marry someone to enter the door, but I still want to provoke others. also dared to go in and out of the double to show his head in the public, and he was not afraid of ruining the girl's innocence, it can be seen that it is rumored in the capital that this Ruan Mingyu is a gentleman, which is true.
Ruan Mingye's brows tightened, "This kid is playing off-road more and more." He was going to walk over, "I'll go over and ask for clarification!" ”
Li Wanru grabbed Ruan Mingye's sleeve and stopped, "You are asking questions in front of the public, but do you sincerely embarrass the girl and save your brother's face?" There's nothing you can't say when you go home. ”
Ruan Mingye nodded silently, "I'll go back to the mansion tonight to talk to my father." ”
Li Wanru has a gentle temperament, and after thinking about it, she said uneasily: "When you talk to your father, you can speak softly, don't make too much trouble, hurt the harmony of both parties." Don't make it difficult for the girls. ”
Ruan Mingye also had a headache when he thought of this, "A few days ago, because of a big fuss in the Chen family, my father almost sacrificed the family law. I didn't expect him to let Miss Chen go well, but he came to pull and pull with a female student. Is...... Alas! ”
-----
That night, in the Nguyen family's mansion, Mrs. Nguyen leaned on the couch and was helped by the maid kneeling in front of her to help her get her nails. She looked at it for a while, then looked up and said to Ruan Jinghong, who was reading in front of the case, "What are you going to do about what Ye'er said tonight?" ”
"Then Li Jingshan is the clerk he sent to Tianqiaotang to learn art." Ruan Jinghong turned a page of the book, "Originally, I had already sent her back to her hometown a few years ago. I don't know why I left her for the New Year. It's not impossible to catch her up now, but it's just that the name is not right, and I'm afraid that the third child will make trouble. ”
"Now the third child is bringing people in and out of the right way.
Can you still do it? ”
Madame Ruan raised a slender jade hand to look at it carefully, "The idea of this spring exhibition has been praised by your Elder Pavilion, and it is said that it is still the idea that this Nizi came up with?" ”
Ruan Jinghong smiled, "The third child probably wanted to praise her, so I said so." ”
Madame Ruan sent her maid down, got up and walked to Ruan Jinghong's side, and showed him the newly made nails.
"But Ah Yu, this kid will never come out of nowhere. This girl seems to have some ability. ”
Ruan Jinghong held his wife's hand and looked up at her, "I have an idea." If this girl is right-minded, and Ah Yu likes it so much, it is better to let Ah Yu accept her in the room. ”
Seeing his wife's disapproving look, he patted her hand and signaled to be calm, "Ah Yu is also old now, and it is always inconvenient to have no one in the house to serve him. If that girl is innocent and serious, and has been with Ah Yu for so long, it is not impossible to be a concubine in the room. ”
"You men," Mrs. Ruan poked her finger at her husband's head, "San'er hasn't married a wife yet, so you should take him as a concubine first, and you see if there will be any good daughters willing to enter the third child's house in the future!" ”
Ruan Jinghong sighed, covered his head and said, "Then what do you say?" Get that girl away? With the third child's temperament, I am afraid that if I go to drive people with my front foot, he will be able to chase him out of the city gate with his back foot and elope with others! ”
I have to say that the son is better than the father. Ruan Jinghong's guess is inseparable from Ruan Mingyu's inner thoughts.
"Besides, even if you want the third child to accept someone as a concubine, I'm afraid that the third child and the girl may not agree." Madam Ruan muttered, "I think Ah Yu wants her to enter the Jingbao Pavilion in the future. ”
