After Ying Ze and the others ate the banquet, they dispersed one after another.

It was still early, Xun Qingran sat in the warm pavilion, and discussed with Malt, Xu Mama and others, they had just moved over, and they should visit the host, but they didn't know who the hostess of the hugging Puyuan was.

"The slave has been cleaning up in this courtyard for the past two days, and the jade void scattered people live in a simple place, as if they have no wife's room. I have seen a Mrs. Yan, who should be the junior of the Yuxu Sanren, managing the affairs of the inner house. Mama Xu said.

"Just prepare a few rulers, and bake two kinds of dim sum and send them over. Let's see when it's convenient for Mrs. Yan, let's go over and pay a visit. Xun Qingran commanded.

Mama Xu promised to go down and prepare.

The gift was sent over, and Mrs. Yan took the initiative to come over to see Xun Qingran.

This Mrs. Yan looks like she is about 30 years old, petite, dressed very neatly, with a pink and white melon seed face, soft and glutinous when she speaks, and is a typical Jiangnan person.

"I should have come to see earlier, knowing that my grandmother was pregnant, I was afraid that my grandmother would move over and take a break before I would see anyone." Mrs. Yan said.

The two exchanged politeness.

Xun Qingran carefully inquired about what taboos the owner had in this garden.

"Grandma just thinks of this place as her home, and she can do whatever she wants." Mrs. Yan hurriedly said, "It's just that my father likes to be quiet and has a somewhat eccentric personality. If the etiquette is not good, please don't be embarrassed by grandma. ”

Xun Qingran naturally said that it was okay.

"If you lack anything, send someone to it, it's better than buying it outside." Mrs. Yan said.

Xun Qingran only regarded it as a kind word, and naturally responded politely.

Seeing Mrs. Yan away, everyone had to talk about it.

"Although it is a businessman's family, it is different to be rewarded by the emperor, but the rules and etiquette are the same as those of everyone."

Although the master is not picky, Xun Qingran still told Mama Xu, Kikyo and others to restrain their maids and sons-in-law and not to be evil guests.

In the evening, when the husband and wife went to bed to rest, Xun Qingran asked Qi You about the Yuxuan people.

"It's an old man, and he doesn't talk much. He was more like a Confucian than a businessman. "This is Qi You's evaluation of the Jade Void Sanren, "It's indifferent to me, but it's very good to Junhui," Qi You remembered the situation when they met that day, "His attitude towards Junhui is a bit like an elder, but he doesn't have a shelf, but he has a little more respect." ”

"What are they doing to raise such a big house?"

"Some of his children are still doing business in Jiangnan, and they send their own money to the capital every year." Qi Yu said.

Xun Qingran was even more curious about the Jade Void Scattered People in his heart. On the third day after she moved here, she met this long-known strange man.

At that time, Xun Qingran was taking Fusheng and Xuan'er for a walk by the maple forest, and saw someone fishing by the lake from a distance. She saw that the man was about fifty years old, dressed in a navy blue outfit, which was exactly the appearance of the jade void man that Qi You had said. She remembered what Mrs. Yan said, and hesitated whether to step forward to say hello, or to bypass so as not to disturb the Yuxu Sanren.

The Jade Void Sanren stood up and walked towards them.

The Yuxu Sanren walked up to the front and bowed to Xun Qingran.

"Greetings to Madame."

Xun Qingran hurriedly curtsied back.

"The old gentleman is the master of this room? Are we bothering you? ”

"It's the old man. It's just that I have nothing to do and go for a walk, so I can't talk about disturbing. "Jade is scattered and humane.

"Both are Madame's children?" Yuxuan Sanren looked at Fusheng and Xuan'er and asked.

"This is my daughter, this is my adopted son." Xun Qing said, so he let Fusheng and Xuan'er see the Yuxuan people.

The Jade Void Man looked at Fusheng and Xuan'er, and then took out two jade pendants from his arms.

"This is enshrined in front of the Buddha, and it is worn by my brother and sister to my side, or it can drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters."

But they are two small pendants, the jade is warm and clear, but it will not be expensive and unacceptable. Xun Qingran made a slight push and accepted it.

Yuxu Sanren had no intention of leaving, but accompanied Xun Qingran to walk slowly along the lake, and said that he had seen Xun Qingran's door plaque couplet at Xun Junhui.

“…… Jun Hui said that he still learned his words from his wife. "Jade is scattered and humane.

Directly calling his brother's name, the tone is cordial, and when it comes to the things of the sister and brother when they were young, it seems that the younger brother and this jade void are not ordinary.

Xun Qingran thought so, so he smiled and nodded.

"I was also a child at that time, my sister and brother copied the same copybook, Junhui was young, and sometimes I couldn't sit still, I just supervised a little."

"Madame's words are a must. With all due respect, although Ling Zun is very knowledgeable, when it comes to calligraphy, he is slightly inferior to his wife. At that time, Madame was very young, and she was willing to work learning calligraphy, presumably under the influence of other elders. ”

At the beginning, the purpose of practicing calligraphy was actually very simple, that is, I hoped that Xun Junhui could become famous in the imperial examination. In order to urge her younger brother, she also liked it, so she put in that effort, and it became a habit.

"The Xun family is a generation of scholars, and reading and learning words has become a trend, if you talk about influence, it should be the influence of this style."

"Oh," the Yuxu Sanren muttered, "the old man thought that Madame was influenced by Lingtang, and Junhui once said that Lingtang was very good at poetry. ”

Xun Qingran's heart moved. The Lingtang that the Jade Void Scattered people said was definitely not the Fang Clan. However, how could his younger brother tell him that his biological mother loves poetry.

"My mother-in-law was born in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and her poetry is mediocre. My brother and I passed away when we were very young. At that time, my younger brother was still in infancy, and I was older than my younger brother, but unfortunately, it was me, and now I can't remember what my biological mother looked like. Xun Qingran said and looked at the Yuxuan people.

A hint of gloom flashed in the eyes of the Jade Void Sanren. He did not continue the topic, but took Xun Qingran into the maple forest.

"This one was planted by the sixth generation of the Yan family...... Yuxusanren pointed to a big tree about two people hugging.

This maple forest has a history of 100 years, and the people of Yuxusan can clearly tell the origin of each tree.

Xun Qingran was a little frightened, but fortunately, when she talked about her biological mother with her younger brother, she sent the girls away. Therefore, only she can hear the words of the Jade Void Scattered People.

"The hundred-year-old clan disappeared overnight. After all, there was no burning of the harp and the crane, and there was still this garden left, and these maple trees,...... So that future generations can hang on to it. The Yuxu Sanren caressed a maple tree, and his eyebrows were full of sourness.

Xun Qing lost her mind for a moment, but she quickly calmed down.

"The old gentleman dressed up like this, presumably studied the Taoist classics and understood the world. Taoism is in the world, and the highest state pays attention to harmony with light and dust, and Shu scroll with the times. What does the old gentleman think? Xun Qingran asked with a smile.

"Madame is really knowledgeable." Yuxusan looked at Xun Qingran, looking a little melancholy, but also very pleased. "With the light and dust, with the time Shu roll. Madame is right, the old man also admires this way. ”

That's good, Xun Qingran said in his heart, smiled and nodded.

Yuxu Sanren is familiar with the past and the present, and is familiar with the story of the grass, trees, mountains and stones in this Baopu Garden, so he took Xun Qingran to see the past one by one.

"These stories, I think Junhui has already experienced them." Xun Qingran smiled again.

Yuxusan also smiled, "Ask him to move in, but he always refuses." If it weren't for the fear that his wife would suffer outside, he would never come to me. ”

Since then, there has been no separation between the guest and the host. Sometimes they see each other from afar, but they nod to each other, sometimes they come over and say a few words, and sometimes they just watch Xun Qingran play with the two children from a distance. Both sides are very natural and at ease.

Xun Qingran gradually fell in love with Baopu Garden and this maple forest.

Fusheng and Xuan'er obviously like it too.

It's late autumn now, and the forest is full of thick fallen leaves. The warm afternoon sun shone down from the branches, reflecting the fiery red maple leaves, and dyeing people's faces with a faint red glow.

Xun Qingran and Qi You walked slowly along the bluestone path in the forest. He has nothing to do recently, and he rarely goes out to socialize, and he has a lot of time to accompany Xun Qingye every day.

Fusheng and Xuan'er, two wrapped in round buns, were laughing while chasing the little sika deer and playing. The baby sika deer has grown soft antlers, it has become familiar with the two children, dodging lightly, and sometimes it will stop and be caught by the two children without struggling.

"Fusheng and Xuan'er have been playing wild these days." Qi Yu said.

"That's fine, you see Fusheng grow again. Xuan'er is also stronger than the average girl. Xun Qingran said with a smile.

The girls in the big family are all pampered, like Sister Jue, who is older than Xuan'er, but she never leaves her grandmother**'s arms every day, rarely walks around by herself, and it is impossible to play outside like this.

Sister Luan Yu said, Xuan'er is very good like this. When I grow up, my mind and vision will be broader. Xun Qing said.

"I didn't say it bad. Xuan'er is very good like this. Qi Yu said.

"If you're in the mansion over there, you're not so comfortable." Xun Qing said.

Qi You nodded, and reached out to remove a maple leaf that had fallen on Xun Qing's head.

"The fourth master went to the house today, the old lady is okay"

"Grandmother is fine." Qi You's tone was a little hesitant, "Mrs. was ordered into the palace by her mother the last time. ”

"The old lady didn't enter the palace to talk to the mother?" Xun Qingran frowned slightly.

"The old lady also entered the palace, but the mother was delicate and could not listen to many words. As soon as the old lady spoke, the mother said that her stomach hurt......" Qi You also frowned.

The two walked a few steps in silence.

"Let them be." Xun Qingran suddenly stopped, "What Mrs. is taboo about is just us, now that we are out, the fourth master deliberately avoided his friends in order to make them feel at ease, and refused to go out to socialize." What do they have to offer? ”

"I can't hide anything from you." Qi You looked at Xun Qingran and said, "Qingran, I did this, do you blame me." ”

Xun Qing was originally upset with Qi You, and he couldn't help but laugh when he heard Qi You say this.

"The fourth master accompanies me every day, and it's too late for me to be happy. I'm just afraid that the fourth master himself will feel depressed. ”

"I'm not depressed, I'm indulging in wine, and I don't want to make progress"

"No, it's Taoguang." Xun Qing dyed the color of the road.
