There was a constant influx of coolness in the large open window, but the rain was tightly blocked by the canopy, so lying on the kang bed next to the window to cool off became the most pleasant thing in this evening. Lan Ting stood for two hours in the last day to "supervise" the public trial, and at noon he ran a trip to Jiao Sanbo's slope with a hungry stomach against the sun, and returned to the state government in a hot sweat, and was busy with many matters in the aftermath, after all, it was only at this time that he was a little leisurely, although a burst of rain eased the sullenness, and somewhat refreshed the spirit, but a pair of legs and feet were really tired today, and he was completely unfamiliar with Chungui, too lazy to sit upright, half leaning on the pillow and turning sideways from the window, with some lazy talk to Chungui.
Seeing that he was tired like this, and as if he was about to talk about the process of the public trial, Chun Gui hurriedly stopped: "The situation Ah Low has already told us, we all know that the process is quite smooth, although Wu Ergui did not admit his guilt, and Hu Duan still has to wait for the court to decide, but we all believe that the evildoer will be punished, and now the people in Manfenyang firmly believe that Wu Erzhen is the murderer of Hu Duan, even if Yuan Ge Lao and Shi Liangxing exonerate Hu Duan, it will be useless, not to mention that Shi Liangxing is still difficult to protect." ”
After speaking, he glanced at the rain and fog seeping through the window at night, and was very concerned about Lan Ting's diet: "You have been busy all day today, you must have used lunch well, and dinner is also used in the outside office?" It must be to fill my stomach at will, this son will rain so much, it is inconvenient to go to the kitchen, but I see that the rain is coming quickly, most of it will not last, at most half an hour will stop, or you can sleep for a while, and when I wake up, I can just prepare a supper. ”
Chungui said that he was about to get up, but he didn't think about it but was pulled by Lan Ting, just lightly, expressing his intention to stop, and then withdrew his hand and patted another pillow: "I didn't care about lunch, when I was on the road, the soup back stuffed me with some dry food, and I didn't let my stomach empty after all, although I was a bit picky eater, but today I was really hungry and tired, and at dinner time I had the same wind and clouds as those officials, and I had the strength to come back when I was full, and I was afraid of accumulating food when I ate supper, and Huihui also saved a lot of busyness, so I also accompanied me to talk crookedly, Save me from falling asleep so early, and wait for some food to be able to take a bath. ”
There is no maid in the room who is as eyeless as the maid to follow in, this will be crowded at the bottom of the corridor to watch the rain and wind, although Chun Gui feels that a man and a woman are so crooked on the same Zhang Kang is too ambiguous, the nature is completely different from Lala's little hands, but she peeked at Lan Ting's expression at this time, it seemed to be a little shy, she lowered her eyes and didn't look at her, only the corners of her lips stretched, and because he curled his body slightly, he really revealed a bit of rare childishness compared to the usual, for some reason it touched a corner of her heart a little soft, and she felt that if she rejected him, he would definitely feel embarrassed, Maybe I'll keep my distance from her for a long time.
Chungui felt that he didn't want to be estranged from Lan Ting, and he couldn't stand the embarrassment and embarrassment of the two of them for a long time, and they did worship the Ming media who had married the church, and there was no need for "men and women don't kiss......
So he replied "yes" sharply, and in addition to his shoes, he was also crooked on the pillow.
When the two pairs of eyes met, they gradually smiled, and the smile spread to the corners of their eyebrows and lips.
At this time, the room has actually been darkened, because of the strong wind, there is no maid to come in to take charge of the lamp, except for the two pairs of eyes are clear, as if everything is in the dim and obscurant, revealing the meaning of indescribable, but the roof tile is noisy, the sound of rain mixed with the sound of the maidservants laughing, Lan Ting thought that this scene may be able to enter the painting, but he thought more about the scene that is not suitable for the painting.
Chungui is obviously more pure, she thinks that the gradual closeness makes her more accustomed to it, and she regards all kinds of things as an aid to the soul, and has not thought of many scenes that are not suitable for painting, so she is very frank and lies down and smiles, and she really began to perform the duty of "accompanying and talking", and the first thing she mentioned was that she was still a "foreign girl".
"I heard Ah Low say that a person came directly to him after the public trial today, so don't speak? Ah Low said, it seems that the man is not very righteous. ”
Lan Ting reacted for a moment before overlapping the faces of "Ah Low" and Yin Xiaomei, and then reacted again, only to remember who the person who was unfortunately judged by Yin Xiaomei to be a treacherous villain might be, he didn't answer, pretending to be annoyed: "Ah Low has really become Huihui's ear report." ”
"Uncle She's acting like this, if he can still be seen and heard by Ah Low, it must not be such a confidential matter, and I am afraid that she will report to God by ear?"
Lan Ting was very satisfied that Chungui was not in a hurry to justify, so he said: "It is true that he is not a righteous person, that person's surname is Wen, he ranks second in the family, his name is Jing Zi Shouchu, his family is a noble general, but he is a liberal arts student, and he has not participated in the township examination yet, but he is known as a talented person among the Fenyang students." ”
Chun Guicai was very interested when he heard the first sentence, and he endured it, and only after Lan Ting finished speaking, did he say: "Don't say that he is not a righteous person?" Did you have a relationship with him? It's not like you've met once and said a few words to have such a judgment, right? ”
The continuous questioning made Lan Ting a little stunned, he simply supported his forehead with his hand, and thought slowly for a while: "Although today is not the first time I have met Wen Shouchu, I did have a bad impression when I first saw him, yes, he has a hooked nose ......"
As soon as the word nose came out, Lan Ting saw that Chungui's eyes suddenly widened, and he was so surprised that the whole person barely bounced, and his body leaned more towards him, and a faint fragrance hit his face, and he could feel that his heart was beating heavily and completely losing his rhythm, as well as the uncontrolled swallowing and rolling of the throat.
He looked at her dark eyes, and felt that her surprised look was so vivid, he really wanted to obey the wishes of his heart, and kiss the pair of eyes that he had ever seen, the most beautiful eyes in the world, and the recent abrupt and presumptuous actions and emotions almost filled his dreams, sometimes he was obviously busy, but he was always inevitably distracted, and she seemed to be the only concern outside of his business.
It's a novel experience, but it also makes life more fulfilling.
But Lan Ting still resisted all the presumptuous at this time, he seemed to be enjoying this step-by-step, he saw that her unbearable look was really itchy, chanting the words "hook nose", the eyebrows were stretched, and the pupils were shining.
"What's surprising?" Lan Ting didn't know it, although he really didn't understand the surprise of the spring return.
"Ah Low also said the same, because that person was born with a hooked nose and felt inappropriate, I also secretly laughed at her for really judging people by her appearance, but I didn't expect that it was also this set of statements."
I see......
"Brother Yin Ren and I were taught by Min Gong, he has a saying that 'eagle falcon moves to eat people', so he pointed to his nose like an eagle kissing a person and a yin owl, I think Ah Low heard it from Brother Yin Ren, so there is such a coincidence." Lan Ting explained.
"Have you really learned the art of connoisseurship?" Chungui was even more surprised, although she had also heard her father say that physiognomy is also an esoteric science, not a specialty of the likes of gods, for example, the chief of the Xiaoyao Dao is well versed in this way, and the people are very accurate, but about Chungui has never heard the chief of the Xiaoyao Dao tell the mystery of this knowledge, but often listen to Mo Wen Xiaodao to blow the gods to deceive others, and really regard this as a crooked and evil way.
"My grandfather often discussed connoisseurship with Min Gong at that time, but this knowledge was not yet practical, and Min Gong praised me for being blue." After Lan Ting said this, he realized that he was quite suspected of boasting, and he couldn't help touching the bridge of his nose: it seemed that he was becoming more and more involuntarily, wanting to win more admiration for Chungui, which would make his grandfather and Min Gong still there, and he must have laughed at himself for being vanity.
But he couldn't help it: "Actually, Huihui doesn't think about this knowledge too mysteriously, just like when you interact with people, will you also pay attention to the other party's words and deeds, demeanor, and demeanor?" Or when there is a lack of judgment on a thing, it must be judged according to the various people involved, this is the art of appreciating people, in the final analysis, I can also judge someone's character and temperament, if you really say that judging the person's fortune by a person's appearance, whether it is good or bad in the future, it is absolutely impossible. ”
Chungui seems to understand: "Then don't believe the eagle hook nose statement?" ”
"Of course, it's not just through this little fur that you can easily cut off people." Lan Ting smiled: "Min Gong once had a writing, the theory of connoisseurs should first recommend the bones, followed by rigidity and softness, and then combined with appearance, mood, voice, complexion, etc., I saw Wen Shouchu for the first time, although I can't judge his righteousness and evil from a few words, just look at his bone color, which is in line with the 'young minister's half-green face', and according to his words, it seems to be sparse but is actually deep, but it is in line with 'the blue-faced person, deep thinking and ruthless, forbearance and determination'. ”
"Is this good or bad?" Chungui doesn't understand it anymore.
"This man is suitable for politics, but not for friendship." Lan Ting said: "The last time he came to visit, he just paid for entertainment, and he had many temptations for me, and today is the second time I saw him, after he watched the public trial, he claimed to be enlightened about one thing. ”
"What's the matter?" Chungui said curiously, without reflecting at all, she seemed to have committed the precept of "don't peep into foreign affairs" again.
"It was still the day when Mrs. Wu made trouble in the school palace, this Wen Shouchu had a small servant, who happened to witness it from the beginning, and found that Hu Duan's servants among the onlookers were mixed in the crowd, and later helped Wu Lao Niang to help her Zhang Jiu, a gangster in the market, and Hu Duan's servants had a lot of dealings, so Wen Shouchu specially told me about this matter today, reminding me that if Zhang Jiu is tried, it will be more conducive to sitting on the evidence of Hu Duan's crimes."
Chungui's curiosity suddenly decreased, but he wrinkled his brows and thought for a while, and guessed: "I think it's unlikely that Wen Erlang was enlightened today, and he should have taken the opportunity to sell favors." ”
"Indeed, he even mentioned the grievances he had for Jacky Hua at the beginning, and said that he would soon go to Peking to study, and he should have the opportunity to discuss more studies with me in the future."
Chungui smiled again: "Ah Low also reminded me that I must keep you away from this Wen Erlang, but I have already concluded that this person is not good for friendship, and I should understand how to deal with it in the future." ”
Since her husband is well versed in the art of connoisseurship, presumably this kind of communication does not need to be reminded by others, but since the topic has been carried out here, Chungui also talked about the visit of Ding's wife and concubine by the way, and naturally focused on Li Tongzhi's wishes, about Ding Niangzi's private request that had nothing to do with official business, Chungui only briefly touched it, not to mention the secret matter that he learned about by snooping.
