Xie Jiashu said to her, "When you first learn to paint, the first thing you need to learn is to see with your eyes, such as this old plum tree and this clump of bamboo, which is the easiest thing to paint."

But if you look at it with your heart, you will find that the cold and summer are different, the morning and evening are different, the clouds and sunshine are different, and even the temperature changes, there is wind and no wind, their shapes, gods, are all different, the so-called knowledge of things, this is the first realm of learning painting."

So, she stared at the old plum and bamboo all day long, Xie Jiashu sometimes accompanied her to watch, sometimes sat beside her to watch the writing, or draw a few strokes.

Later, when she grew up, she recalled countless times when she was with Xie Jiashu at that time, and she only felt incredible.

Xie Jiashu is silent and cold, and it can even be said that he is a little withdrawn, and he is only close to Xie Tanwei in the entire Xie Mansion, and he looks at Xie Jiameng differently, but he is not close, and he rarely takes the initiative to get close to her.

And she herself looks well-behaved and quiet on the surface, but in her bones she is cold and doesn't like to be disturbed, and she always keeps seven points of defense when getting along with others.

However, when they came together, he could sit by her all day without saying a word, and he didn't get bored.

And she, even if he was tired of being around her for a long time, she didn't feel bored.

At that time, as long as she was in Xie Mansion, if she didn't go to Chongguang Courtyard to look for him, he would definitely come to Liuyun Courtyard to find her, even if something stumbled, no matter how late he was, he would have to come to Liuyun Courtyard to take a look at her, so that he could go back to sleep with peace of mind.

Perhaps, the fate between people is so incredible.

Xie Jiashu's attention to her, and Xie Tanwei's love for her in the future caused her unique status in the Xie family, although her cousin was no worse than Xie Jianing and Xie Jiameng, the two serious Xie family girls, and in front of Mrs. Xie, she was even more favored than them.

For her, the Xie Mansion is more like her home than the Qiu Mansion.

"Third cousin, this is also carried with bamboo?"

Xie Jianing's joking sound sounded in his ears, Qiu Xiyin retracted his gaze, and smiled at Xie Jianing, "I don't want to learn from my cousin, Dong Shi Xiao makes people laugh."

"Yo, this little mouth is terrible, I just said a word to you, you have to resist me, say that I laugh at you."

Xie Jianing smiled and stepped forward to hold her arm, and she saw the conspicuous scar on the back of Qiu Xiyin's hand as soon as she made such a move.

Xie Jianing's eyes flashed slightly, she pretended not to see it, and said with a smile, "Come, clever little girl, I'll take you around, not only Liuyun Courtyard, but also the front and back yards of our house, you were sick when you first came, and you haven't had a good stroll!"

Ameng's idiot is painting again, and if she doesn't finish drawing, she won't get up, so let's not wait for her."

Everyone's girlfriend has an injury on her hand, it must be another story, she asks it is suspected of exploring people's privacy, and most of this kind of thing is difficult to say, she asked embarrassingly, Qiu Xiyin answered it must be even more embarrassing, it is better not to ask.

Xie Jianing was gentle and generous, patiently and meticulously took her around in Liuyun Courtyard, and took her to see Xie Jiameng and her own yard, and warmly and thoughtfully entertained her for lunch in her yard.

In the end, he personally sent her to the gate of the courtyard, and earnestly advised, "We live close, cousin is fine, come to me to sit, I have nothing to do, I have to go to my cousin often, cousin must not be polite, just take this place as your own home!" ”

Qiu Xiyin thanked her gratefully, and resolutely refused to allow her to send it forward, and said goodbye to Xie Jianing and returned to Liuyun Academy.

She has been sick since she returned to Beijing, although she is almost fine, but in the end she is weak, she is really tired after walking such a long circle, and she washes up and sleeps.

She slept very deeply this night, and when she woke up, she felt comfortable, and she was attached to the quilt and didn't want to move, so she lazily called Huang Xiu for a long time.

Huang Xiu entered the room with light steps, raised the layers of snail tents, and said softly, "Girl, get up, the fourth young master has been here for a while, and I told the slave and maid not to disturb the girl's sleep, and the slave and maid had to arrange the fourth young master to drink tea in the flower hall."

This kind of thing often happened in my previous life, Qiu Xiyin was neither surprised nor panicked, changed his clothes unhurriedly, and went to the flower hall after freshening up.

Xie Jiashu sat on the circle chair by the window and looked at a book, and when he heard the movement, he raised his head and saw that it was her who got up and waved her hands, "Third cousin."

Qiu Xiyin returned the salute, "Fourth cousin Lao has been waiting for a long time."

Xie Jiashu glanced at her, a small face was straight and serious, "The third cousin is recovering from her illness, and it is the time when she needs to rest, so it's okay for me to wait for a while."

Qiu Xiyin smiled sweetly at him, "Cousin, please take a seat, you're welcome."

Xie Jiashu did not have a familiar and tacit understanding with her in the future at this time, and after sitting down, he saw Qiu Xiyin not speaking but looking at him with a smile, moved his knees in a hurry, and spoke, "Uncle wants you to draw a picture for him to see, have you painted it?" ”

Qiu Xiyin then remembered that Xie Tanwei had assigned her such a task!

Xie Jiashu saw that she hesitated only because she was scared in her heart, and comforted, "Uncle just wants to see how you paint, you don't have to be afraid, just draw at will."

It's easy for you to say it, she is a person who has studied painting for more than 20 years, and she wants to pretend to be an eight-year-old child to draw a picture, neither can she show too much to make Xie Tanwei suspicious, nor can she hide too deeply to make Xie Tanwei think that she is a fool and has no spirituality at all, how easy is it to say?

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Xie Jiashu proposed, "The plum trees and bamboos outside the pavilion in front are very simple and picturesque things, and they can be painted well or brilliantly, why don't you go and paint that?" ”

Qiu Xiyin saw that he looked like he was ready to accompany him all the way, her head was even bigger, she couldn't grasp the heat well, and then she was stared at by his double pupils, maybe her hands would tremble!

"I, I'd better draw it myself, if it's my cousin's guidance, maybe my uncle will say I'm opportunistic."

When Xie Jiashu and Qiu Xiyin were together, they were very talkative, nodded after listening, and thought for a while before saying, "It's not interesting to play Shuanglu every day, I see that you take a good nap at noon, I think it's because I went to the garden with the second sister and the third sister in the morning, why don't I accompany you to the back garden for a walk, so that you can sleep well at night."

When he spoke, his tone was very unnatural, and his tongue was a little knotted, and he was obviously very unaccustomed to this kind of careful flattery.

Qiu Xiyin listened to the soft mess in his heart, and said with a smile, "That's good!" I often hear the fourth sister say how good the Xie family's house is, and I haven't had a chance to visit it until now! ”

Qiu Xiyin's bright smile and happy tone made Xie Jiashu also happy, he rarely showed a trace of childishness, and reached out to grab Qiu Xiyin's hand, "Then let's hurry up, the sun will go down soon."

Qiu Xiyin hurriedly retracted his hand, Xie Jiashu has always had good eyes, Qiu Xiyin shrank quickly, but he had already seen the injury on the back of her hand, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he said seriously, "Reach out."
