Ruan Mingyu was silent for a long time before he asked astringently, "What happened later?" In fact, he already knew the answer.

"Later, I heard that Fluttershy committed suicide by throwing herself into a well in the middle of the night." Li Jingshan's voice also became heavy.

As soon as the words fell, Ruan Mingyu hugged Li Jingshan tightly, with so much force, as if he wanted to embed her in his body, "I won't let you suffer such a thing, no, never!" No one can say anything wrong about you. My family won't and can't. Jingbao Pavilion has been in the capital for a hundred years, and its big boss manages eight branches in five provinces, if he can't even protect his beloved woman, he won't be confused! I'm not going to let you hurt a second time! ”

The defense line that Li Jingshan had just established in her heart collapsed in an instant, and her mixed thoughts were crowded in her heart, so that she couldn't hold it in her heart, and she wanted to overflow from her eyes.

After a long time, she patted Ruan Mingyu's back and said softly, "No injuries." ”

"It's okay...... Well? What did you say? Ruan Mingyu suddenly pulled Li Jingshan in front of him and looked at her with wide eyes, "What did you just say?" ”

Li Jingshan chuckled, "I'm not hurt. The girl who died was the first and only one to be bullied and humiliated. Later, General Chu attacked the fortress very tightly, and the bandits couldn't take care of us at all. In fact, all of us who were taken captive to the mountains were innocent. ”

Ruan Mingyu was stunned for a moment, the boulder that was pressing and in his heart was removed, and the depression and regret in his heart disappeared suddenly.

He glared at Li Jingshan, although he knew that he couldn't make a mistake in front of such a heavy topic, he still couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth from curling high, hugged Li Jingshan's waist and brought people close to him, and laughed, "So you...... It turns out that you are already thinking about how to go with me to meet your in-laws! Haha, where do you want to run this time? ”

Li Jingshan blushed from laughter at him, and wanted to weakly resist and talk about it, but she was infected by Ruan Mingyu's hearty laughter, and she laughed when she looked at him.

The laughter spread far away. Ruan Shu and Ruan Mo sat under the tree, watching the two figures in the distance separate and merge, merge and separate. Ruan Shu stabbed Ruan Mo, "You say, will Miss Li really be our third young grandmother?" ”

Ruan Mo lay beside him with his arms on his pillow, and spit out three words briefly, "Ask the young master." ”

Ruan Shu cut and pulled the grass around him in boredom. After a while, he turned around again and said with great interest: "Otherwise, let's make a bet, and bet on a set of eight brocade pastry gift boxes in Drunken Xianju." I bet that the young master will eventually marry Miss Li! ”

Ruan Mo raised his eyelids and glanced at Ruan Shu, and said slowly, "I also bet that he will marry." ”

"Wow, you are cheating, how can you bet like this!"

A group of four people traveled day and night, and finally arrived in the capital on the evening of the eighth day of August.

When Li Jingshan saw the towering city gate and the various official residences in the distance, her heart suddenly welled up with pride, and she really felt that this was the place she longed for and the place where she realized her dreams. The sky is high and the earth is thick here, and the waves here are magnificent.

Here, she thought, one day her name will be engraved again.

Ruan Mingyu turned to her and said, "I'll take you back to the courtyard where I live on weekdays first, and then go back to the store tomorrow to listen to the arrangement." ”

When Li Jingshan heard this, she thought to herself, could it be that this young master still wants to continue the habit in Minzhou and continue to use her as a rough girl?

I heard Ruan Mingyu continue: "Your Ah Jue is also there now, waiting for the reopening of the Guozijian after the autumn examination, so that he can sign up for school." ”

Li Jingshan didn't say a word, and followed the young master home.

After the disciples of the Ruan family and the crown, although they did not divide the family, they all set up their own courtyards outside according to the rules. Nguyen Minh Yu's "Sky Star Pavilion" is located in the northeast corner of the ancestral house. Although there are alleys and partial doors, they are independent and independent courtyards on weekdays.

For the sake of freedom of access, Ruan Mingyu also likes to stay in other courtyards. He is now taking Li Jingshan to the other courtyard.

Ruan Shu had already informed the subordinates in the courtyard, and when their horses turned into the alley, they saw that the subordinates greeted them in front of the door early, and the young man in the sky blue robe stood at the front of the crowd and stretched out his head to watch, but it was not who Li Jingjue was!

Li Jingshan got off the horse, and Li Jingjue jumped up and hugged her, "Sister, sister" and shouted. His half of the young man is now taller than Li Jingshan, Li Jingshan was almost pounced on by him and couldn't stand still, so he had to make fun of him for only a few months, why did he become more and more clingy.

saw Li Jingjue's eyes red, and she choked up and said, "You scared me to death, scared me to death!" I thought I'd never see you again! ”

Li Jingshan: "......" My younger brother, why is he still only tall, not brainy, and he has passed the hospital exam, how can he still not grow up.

Her heart moved, and she hurriedly grabbed Li Jingjue and asked, "Does my mother know about me?" ”

If she let her mother know, in the past few months, she has entered the bandit den first, and then entered the epidemic area...... Heaven, thinking of Mrs. Li's tearful nagging, Li Jingshan's face even changed.

"Don't worry, I came to Beijing to hear Uncle Chang talk about you, and she doesn't know yet."

Ruan Mingyu didn't get off the horse, looked at Li Jingshan's relieved expression, and smiled faintly, "If you want to talk about the old days, let's go in and talk about it." You've been on the road for the day, so you're resting early. I'll go back to the mansion tonight and say goodbye. I'll come back tomorrow morning and take you to the Treasure Hunt. Saying that, he beckoned to her, then turned the horse's head and took Ruan Shu and Ruan Mo to the mansion.

Li Jingjue hugged her sister and walked inside. Seeing his familiar appearance, Li Jingshan asked, "You have always lived here?" ”

"yes. I arrived in Beijing with my young master at the beginning of July, and he arranged for me to live here. Li Jingjue replied with an innocent face, "He said that it is not easy to live in the capital, he happens to have an empty house here, and it is not easy to find such a quiet and convenient house." ”

Li Jingshan grabbed her brother and asked quietly, "So- he didn't mention the rent to you?" ”

Li Jingjue nodded solemnly, and also quietly responded, "I mentioned it." He said he would ask for the money in the future. ”

Li Jingshan gritted her teeth: "............" She knew that this profiteer!

As he spoke, he had already entered the dining room, and the people had already prepared their meals. The two sisters and brothers are used to being comfortable, and they don't need to be served, they sit down and chat while eating.

"Young Master Ruan asked Uncle Chang to make arrangements for the month he came to Beijing. has already helped me register my name in Guozijian's birth book," Li Jingjue gave her sister a diligent dish, just like the little master here, "This year is the year of the autumn exam, Guozijian is closed to take the exam, and after the autumn exam is released, you can submit a post to apply for admission." ”

Li Jingshan ate silently, while listening to Li Jingjue's excited description. She knew that although her younger brother was indeed a good seedling for studying, if there was no mediation from the Ruan family, his younger brother's path to study would definitely not be so smooth.

"The young master said that I have been studying in Taixue for three years, and when I take the next autumn exam, I can try my skills."

Li Jingjue is full of confidence, and she is already beginning to imagine what she will look like in Toad Palace three years later.

Li Jingshan sandwiched a piece of chicken and blocked Li Jingjue's mouth, "Don't talk big yet." There are many talents in Beijing, and it is not comparable to a small place like Minzhou. Regardless of whether you can be lifted or not, the most important thing is to learn the real skills in Taixue. ”

In the past few months that she has been out to study, she has truly realized that there is a sky outside the sky and there are people outside the world. Craftsmanship and knowledge are honed by hard work and time.

Li Jingjue bit the chicken and babbled.

After dinner, Li Jingshan ran around all day and felt tired, so she washed early and rested. Before falling asleep, I thought in a daze that this was Young Master Ruan's home...... Will it become her home in the future?

A dreamless night.

The next morning, not long after Li Jingshan finished breakfast, someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard: "Miss Li, can Miss Li get up?" ”

As soon as Li Jingshan walked to the courtyard, she saw Chang Yong walking in quickly, and when she saw her, she was so excited that she strode forward, pulled her up and down, and choked slightly when she spoke, "It's okay if people are fine, it's okay if people are okay......

"The little woman asked Uncle Chang hello."

Li Jingshan knew that Chang Yong had tried to rescue her in many ways, and she was very grateful, and was about to bend her knees to give him a full salute, but Chang Yong helped her, "I can't help it!" Lao Ke didn't wait for you to rescue you in Linchuan, and after suffering so much after you, it was already difficult to feel at ease, where can I be grateful to you. ”

"Uncle Chang doesn't have to worry about it." Li Jingshan hurriedly comforted, "What you have done for the little girl has been done your best. The little woman took it to heart. The development of other things depends on the will of God. ”

Chang Yong admired in his heart, although Li Jingshan encountered an accident, she practiced more deeply and suddenly became proficient.

He nodded approvingly and said, "Today, I will come here and take you to Tianqiao Hall to arrange for admission." If you're packed, come with me and get acquainted with the place. ”

Li Jingshan hurriedly responded and followed Chang Yong into the carriage.

Most of the large, century-old jewellery shops have their own jewellery workshops, which are used by masters to create jewellery and where apprentices can learn the art. The Zhuoying Hall of Minzhou Sizhen Fang is such a comprehensive workshop. Lai Ching Shan also learned the craft at Cho Ying Tong when she was a child. Therefore, she had previously imagined that the Tianqiao Hall of the Treasure Pavilion was no more than a little bigger than the Zhuoying Hall.

However, when she got out of the carriage and saw the plaque of Tianqiaotang displayed in front of her, she realized that she was wrong—this place was as spacious as a manor!

"Tianqiaotang is a jewelry workshop set up at the same time in the early years of the establishment of Jingbao Pavilion. It's been more than 300 years. ”

Chang Yong couldn't close his mouth when he saw Li Jingshan in surprise, and only smiled slightly, almost all the students who saw Tianqiao Hall for the first time had the same reaction.

He led Li Jingshan inside, "There are more than a dozen independent and independent workshops such as jade carving, inlay, tired silk, gold and silver mistakes, etc., and each workshop has a master in charge to guide and select students. ”

He pointed to the big hall in front of him, "This is a place for students to learn jewelry knowledge every day, and on both sides of the hall are independent and independent workshops." It is also a place for your daily study, with a variety of materials and is open all day. ”

"Open all day? That is, can I come here and practice at any time? Li Jingshan asked, seeing Chang Yong nodding with a smile, she couldn't help but clench her fists excitedly.

Chang Yong saw her performance in his eyes, and knew that she was a diligent girl, so he smiled, "In order to make it easier for you to practice, the students' guest rooms are arranged in the back." Come, I'll show you. ”
