Chapter 140: Cui Ying's Love (1)

Shen Yan was praised with peace of mind and said.

Xu Jin couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth, and picked up a peach branch from the ground, with emerald green leaves on it, slim and vibrant, and the length was agreeable, and it was very easy to hold in his hand, as if it was folded specifically for Xu Jin.

"Then you'll have to be ready to praise me."

Xu Jin held the peach branch and smiled slightly, before Shen Yan could react, with a twist of his wrist, the peach branch was like an incarnation of a divine weapon in his hand, turning over and sweeping between his legs, the peach branch brought a sword wind, rolled up a few falling petals in the air, and danced with his figure flashing.

His sword moves are sharp, although he uses peach branches, but the fierce aura in it is not reduced, although he is in the peach forest, he still has a vigorous morning sun atmosphere.

Even the peach blossom forest with soft smoke is full of murderous aura.

In the end, Xu Jin tapped his toes on the ground, turned around and took the sword to stand still, looked deeply at Shen Yan, and stretched out his hand.

"Praise me."

Shen Yan was originally immersed in Xu Jin's sword dance and couldn't extricate himself, but when Xu Jin said this, he was directly stunned in place, and it took a long time before he said a sentence: "People are more delicate than flowers." ”

“……”

Xu Jin felt that he was about to lose his feet in an instant, and his originally stable expression suddenly cracked a gap, and even the peach branch in his hand was no longer slim.

What kind of strange compliment is this?

People are more delicate than flowers?

He smiled helplessly, threw away the peach branch in his hand, stepped forward and patted Shen Yan's shoulder, and said bitterly: "I originally wanted you to play for a few more days." Now it seems that it is time to find you a teaching gentleman. ”

"You dare!"

Shen Yan said angrily.

Don't think he doesn't understand, Xu Jin is scolding himself for being uneducated!

……

After returning home, although Xu Jin did not find a teacher for Shen Yan, he still threw her a thick stack of books. Shen Yan turned over the books on the table with resentment, and found that most of them were medical books, and there were a few English books in the middle.

"Where did you come from?"

Shen Yan took an old sheepskin English book in his hand and asked curiously.

Xu Jin smiled faintly, picked up the book, and said with some nostalgia: "Jiangcheng is a city and three states, and there are quite a lot of exchanges between shipping and Western countries, and this book was left by Yan Lao." ”

"Elder Yan?"

Shen Yan raised his eyebrows and asked. When she was in Jiangcheng, she never knew a person named Yan Lao.

Xu Jin lifted the hem of his clothes and sat beside her, explaining, "Elder Yan is similar to you, with golden curly hair and blue eyes, and he comes from the Ocean Domain. He came to Guzhou with the shipping transaction, and has been staying in Jiangcheng ever since. He also wrote an illustrated book of the Sea Kingdom, which recorded that he had been to a place else, and that there was maize in it. ”

Hearing the maize, Shen Yan sneered.

"I'm not a blond Westerner, you mistook it in the first place. I am a serious Central Plains person. But speaking of which, have you successfully planted maize? ”

Shen Yan's question is also a knot in Xu Jin's heart.

"I've tried many ways to distribute the seeds to experienced farmers in the field, but I haven't succeeded yet."

From Shen Yan's point of view, the cultivation of corn is simple. But for the people, it is a completely new crop, and it is a difficult process to find a way to grow it.

"Maize should be planted in early summer, and the land should be fertile, with no more water and no less. When you get the maize, it's too late, and you can't figure out how to grow it. ”

Shen Yan raised his eyebrows and said.

Xu Jin pretended to ponder and said, "You are obviously an emperor, but you understand such things. It's weird, weird. ”

"Believe it or not."

Shen Yan squinted his eyes and said, not retreating at all.

She looked like she was on guard, and she no longer wore a mask to Xu Jin to act.

"Letter, I'll write what you said in the fold and hand it back to Jiangcheng."

Xu Jin waved his hand and said very seriously.

"If it goes well, you can eat maize in midsummer or early autumn."

Shen Yan thought of roasted corn, boiled corn, and corn soup, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. If she can grow corn, she can be considered to be able to feast on it.

"Mrs. Cheng Jiyan."

When Xu Jin talked about political affairs, he got up and prepared to leave, turned around and bowed his hand to Shen Yan, causing Shen Yan to sit on the seat and feel a little at a loss. But this helplessness was immediately broken by Xu Jin himself.

"Look at these books. Although the Xu family is a family with little ability, they definitely have a lot of books. ”

Hearing Xu Jin's words, Shen Yan couldn't help but wrap up a bag of tears, and sighed with emotion, the sea of learning is endless, and it is the shore!

When Xiao Xing saw Xu Jin leaving, he entered the bedroom, and while helping Shen Yan pack up his things, he teased: "I was worried about the relationship between His Highness and the concubine, but now it's good to see you and you are happy." ”

"After all, life always has to go on."

Shen Yan looked at the parchment book in his hand and said leisurely.

Life is lived by itself. Give it a try with Xu Jin, and you won't lose a piece of meat.

At this time, Feng Xuan came in from outside the house, she jumped and half knelt in front of Shen Yan, and said with Guan Zi: "I went out to buy things today and heard some gossip, is Your Highness interested in listening to it?" ”

Hearing the gossip, Shen Yan decisively closed the book in his hand, hooked his finger towards Xiaoxing, and the three of them sat together ready to listen to the hot gossip news that Feng Xian had just brought back.

"Concubine Xian's mother's family, Cui's family, is an unattainable family. It is said that the daughters of the Gaomen family are extremely difficult to marry like the emperors of the heavenly family. Coincidentally, the Cui family now has a concubine, who is twenty years old and has a good age, and now she is the son of Lord Shangshu Cheng of the Household Department! ”

Feng Xuan clenched his fists, his eyes lit up, and said quickly.

Shen Yan thought of the woman in Tsing Yi in the peach forest, she was Cui Min's sister, and she thought that she was the concubine who was promised to someone else in Feng Xuan's mouth.

"What's the gossip about here, it's just a normal marriage."

Xiaoxing accosted on the side, obviously not interested in this gossip.

Feng Xuan pretended to shake his head profoundly, and said: "Although the head of the household is a high official, but his son is a person who does nothing, although this Miss Cui is not as noble as the virtuous concubine, that is also a talented young lady, she is definitely not looking down on this family business." ”

And there is a sense of that.

"I think your gossip seems to have an unfinished part."

Shen Yan looked at Feng Xuan's excited look and said intuitively. Sure enough, Feng Xuan nodded and continued to share his own gossip news.

"It is rumored that this young lady of the Cui clan has taken a fancy to the servant of the criminal department."

"That's not good, the squire of the criminal department is her brother!"

Xiao Xing shook his head violently with a frightened expression, feeling that this gossip was really a bit difficult to swallow!

Shen Yanle said with a smile: "Each of the six departments has two waiters. Thinking about it, this Miss Cui has a crush on another servant of the Criminal Department, Qiao Lingfeng. ”
