Lin Tianqing didn't sleep peacefully, waking up and sleeping, as if he was caught in a nightmare, although he could hear the low whispers of the maids, but he was weak and couldn't get up.

Fu Shou noticed Lin Tianqing's soft moaning, so he stepped forward to check, only to see that her eyebrows were slightly frowned, sweat was oozing from her forehead, and she was still sleeping groggily. Fushou didn't wake her up, but he just twisted the handkerchief to wipe her sweat, and this action knocked down the veil in front of the bed and swept across Lin Tianqing's fingertips.

Fu Shou was about to go out with a basin, but when he turned around, he saw Lin Tianqing's sleeping face dimly printed on the thin drapery, like a painting wet by water. Fu Shou sighed lightly, and instructed the little maid standing outside the door to pay attention to Lin Tianqing, so he lifted the curtain and went to the front yard.

Fu'an was still kneeling under the porch, and Mother Wei, who was beside Xiao Chen, was sitting on the Taishi chair beside her, cross-legged, peeling a kumquat slowly. Fushou thought that if he was lucky in this life, he would probably be able to survive to the status of Wei's mother.

This season is the time to eat oranges, but the grade of this orange is also good and bad, the emperor rewarded the tribute oranges to several henchmen, and the Lin Mansion is naturally indispensable. Lin Tianqing's small courtyard has just been divided. Lin Tianqing didn't like to eat oranges, so he gave them all to the people below, and he didn't know which one ate the inside and outside, and took the oranges out to flatter.

Fushou stood by the door and watched quietly for a while, whether he went out to persuade him. She is just a subordinate, and the masters want to punish her, can she stop it? The little girls outside don't know why Fu'an was punished, but Fushou vaguely knows, and it's hard for Miss to be infatuated, but what can they do as subordinates? It's just following the master's wishes.

"Sister Fushou, Miss has called someone." The maid guarding the door passed the word, Fu Shou glanced at Fu An, only to see that she couldn't hold on, and her back was soft, so she was whipped by Wei's mother with a rattan. Fu'an snorted and closed his eyes.

Fushou couldn't bear to look at it anymore, handed the basin to the little maid, and turned around and went to the room.

"Where's Fu'an?" Lin Tianqing just broke out of the nightmare, and she was weak and weak.

"I'm being punished under the porch." Fushou did not hide it and blurted it out.

Fushou and Lin Tianqing are not as close as Fu'an, but she and Fu'an have known each other since childhood, and their feelings are very different, and they will not be suspicious because of who is more embarrassed in front of their master. Fu'an has Lin Tianqing's reuse, she is not very happy, because she really feels sorry for Fu'an's busy all day long, and even the grace that the maids can leave the house once a month is often useless because Lin Tianqing can't leave her.

"Why was he punished? Ahem, ahem. Lin Tianqing took a sip of the decoction that had been warm on the stove with Fushou's hand, and when he heard this unexpected words, he was surprised for a moment and choked on it.

"The slave maid didn't know, but the lady commanded, saying that she should kneel for three hours." Fu Shou pressed the corner of Lin Tianqing's mouth with a handkerchief, and still fed the medicine one by one.

Lin Tianqing lowered her eyes a little weakly, took a spoonful of medicine, pushed the medicine cup, and signaled herself not to drink it. "Madame, but you're back? Let her get up. No penalty is required. ”

"Mother Wei is watching. It is said that you must kneel for three hours, and your waist must be straight, and you can't move at will. Fushou put the medicine cup aside, took the candied fruit on the table, and fed Lin Tianqing to eat one.

A little sweetness spread from the tip of the tongue, this candied fruit was hand-selected by Fu'an, boiled with Xie Lingtai's prescription, and dried little by little by the fire.

"Then the knee must not be broken?" Lin Tianqing was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Chen's trick of killing chickens and showing monkeys.

Fu Shou raised his eyebrows, just held the fruit plate obediently, and did not speak.

Although Lin Tianqing was angry, he lay back after drinking the medicine, and he didn't even go out to take a look, nor did he let Fushou go out and say a good word. She rolled over lazily under the covers and fell asleep again.

Fushou stood on the side of the bed and looked at Lin Tianqing quietly for a while, she remembered that Fu'an tried medicine for Lin Tianqing again and again, and her stomach was broken, she couldn't eat ice fruit drinks in summer, and she was even more prone to stomach pain in winter.

She suddenly had an unworthy thought for Fu'an, and the little maids all said that Lin Tianqing had a gentle temperament and was the best master. But Fushou felt that she just thought very highly of herself. Because I feel that I am noble, I especially like to make a feeling of grace to the bottom.

In fact, Fu'an is no different from other subordinates in her eyes, just a slave who is more convenient to use.

Even if Lin Tianqing had turned around and couldn't see it, Fushou still obediently blessed himself before retreating. It was as if this deferential attitude had become a mask for her, just perfunctory, and without real intentions.

……

There are two ginkgo trees in the Hanlin Courtyard, I don't know what year they were planted, and the two ginkgo trees need to be surrounded by five people to hold them. The ginkgo tree is full of yellow leaves in this season, and when the autumn wind moves, it will rain a sparse golden rain, which is extremely beautiful.

The people of Hanlin Temple regard these two ginkgo trees as extremely important, and even have two servants who take care of the trees, which can be said to be the most extravagant thing for Hanlin Yuan, which is famous for its nobility.

The Hanlin courtyard has always been extremely quiet, and the people rarely whisper, and in their spare time, they just took a broom and stood under the porch to watch the scenery like Wen Xin, and there was only the light sound of the wind blowing the leaves in the courtyard.

"Hello Mr. Lin." Wen Xin saw Lin Tianlang coming from not far away, so he said hello.

Hearing this call from his subordinates, Lin Tianlang was stunned and showed a somewhat childish smile. He's still a little unaccustomed to this title.

The bachelor of the Hanlin Academy is proud of his identity, although he will not speak coldly, but he rarely talks to his subordinates. The new group of young scholars do not have the old-fashioned temperament of old pedants, and occasionally gather under the corridor to talk and laugh, which seems much more easy-going.

However, there is a new editor who doesn't have a good impression of Wen Xin, and he talks to him coldly, and Wen Xin seems to be scolding him! Wen Xin thought how reserved this person was, when the university scholar came to the Hanlin Academy a few days ago, he rushed to the front and smiled like a pug!

'Yo, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived, it can be seen that you can't talk about people behind your back, you can't even think about it. Wen Xin saw Rui Xi coming over from a distance and greeted Lin Tianlang.

Rui Xi's footsteps froze and said hello to Lin Tianlang. Lin Tianlang only nodded expressionlessly, the look on his face was not as enthusiastic as when he was facing Wen Xin!

Wen Xin couldn't hold back a smile and hurriedly turned around, but it was too late, the snickering expression on Wen Xin's face was being seen by Rui Xi!

Wen Xin took a broom and pretended to sweep the dust-free floor tiles, and Rui Xi walked past Wen Xin's side with a gloomy face.

It was not surprising that Lin Tianlang was indifferent to himself, after all, there was a misunderstanding of the Lin Mansion first, but a little subordinate didn't even take himself seriously! Rui Xi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, almost suffocating herself.

He gave advice to the Eighth Prince, and he tried his best to think about it, but he begged him to help him find a position in the Hanlin Academy, and he was also ridiculed in every way. In the end, he only got a final edit, and he had to work hard in the Hanlin Academy, how could he be so happy as Lin Tianlang, he was a third-class bachelor as soon as he came up!

Rui Xi's heart became more and more uneven, and he thought to himself, "When I studied in the Lin Mansion in the past, I was on par with Lin Tianlang's knowledge. Seriously, Mr. praised himself more often, Lin Tianlang can get a Tanhua, if he hadn't been kicked out of the house because of that woman's matter, stay in the house and study hard, maybe he would be able to win the top prize! ’

Rash and here, his eyebrows twisted into a deep knot.

"Brother Rui, what's wrong with you?" A Qiao editor in the same room with him looked at him with some concern, not because he was worried about him, but because his appearance was too scary, he was afraid that Rui Xi would suddenly become angry.

Rui Xi looked at the fragments of an ancient book that Qiao Le was holding in his hand, and said angrily: "Repairing ancient books here all day long, this is obviously the work of the next person!" How to distribute it to us! ”

Qiao Le didn't think so, he cautiously touched the ancient book in his hand, and said puzzledly: "Brother Rui's words are wrong, the ancient books are seriously damaged, and some places need to be supplemented by our handwriting, which must be a little literary and knowledgeable!" How can it be the work of the inferior? ”

"But would those bachelors do such a thing?" Rui Xi was still very resentful, "They can follow the scholars to discuss the world's major events, they can write books, and they can make articles, which are all good things that can be famous for eternity!" ”

"So we're editors, they're bachelors." Qiao Le retorted softly, he came from a humble background, and he had studied hard for decades to become a minor official who edited and revised, and it was very comfortable to be accompanied by books all day long.

When Rui Xi heard this, she couldn't refute it, but stared coldly at the ancient books waiting to be repaired on her desk.

Qiao Le pursed his lips, and didn't dare to say anything, only to concentrate on doing what was in front of him.

The Hanlin Academy usually leaves work at the beginning of the Shen Dynasty, but the Hanlin Academy is very close to the Lin Mansion, so Lin Tianlang will stay for a while, sort out his daily notes, and then walk home slowly.

"Master Lin, Master Lin."

When he heard the first sentence, Lin Tianlang had already recognized Rui Xi's voice, he turned around and looked at Rui Xi calmly. "What?"

Rui Xi walked to his side, his expression was extremely natural, as if the two were still in the same relationship when they were in the Lin Mansion together.

"I have something in my heart, and I don't vomit or be unhappy." Rui Xi said with some embarrassment, "I was really wronged by the matter of the eldest lady of the Song family before, I just wanted to come to the front yard to take a look at the painting, and I accidentally pushed the door of the room." ”

After Rui Xi finished speaking, she looked at Lin Tianlang with some expectation, hoping that the two of them could release their previous suspicions.

"I believe what you say." Lin Tianlang said lightly: "It's just that the Tao is different, Brother Rui is now under the command of the Eighth Prince, and we are not all the way." ”
