Zhuang Xiaoling walked alone and arrived at the top of Anying Mountain.

Next to the wooden house next to the pond, the mountain cherry blossoms are planted with a pink color, and they are bright and clear.

The door was pushed open, and there was a slight clanging sound, and Akiko stepped out of it, his footsteps on the plank, and the water's edge rippled.

Silent, slowly, rippling in the hearts of the two.

"Teacher."

Master Qiu was dressed in plain clothes, holding a bamboo basket in his hand, glanced at Zhuang Xiaoling lightly, walked around him to the cottage, walked through the dense forest, and came to a grave.

It seems that someone has just come, and there is a burnt incense candle paper money in front of the tombstone.

"Suxia, I'm coming to see you again."

A faint smile appeared on Qiu Fuzi's face, and he looked at the tombstone with affection, as if he was looking at a person through it.

On the tombstone is the seal character of Fang Zheng Juanxiu: the tomb of the deceased husband Su Xia.

This was erected by Master Qiu, who came back every year to worship and sit for a long time.

Zhuang Xiaoling also followed, standing in the distance and not daring to approach.

After a while, Master Qiu got up from the ground and looked straight at Zhuang Xiaoling, who was leaning behind the tree, with cold and indifferent eyes in his eyes.

"Why, can't you even come over and pay respects?"

Zhuang Xiaoling was stunned when he heard this, and seemed to be a little incredulous.

She had always refused to allow him to approach the tomb, and between the two of them, there was a dead man forever.

And the existence of this dead man separates the two of them from yin and yang.

Zhuang Xiaoling walked to the tomb at a loss, was kicked by Master Qiu and knelt on the stone slab, looking up at the tombstone.

Every word seems to be pierced into the bottom of my heart, evoking all the past.

Eleven years ago, the capital was changing, and the court was changing.

As a princeling, the Qiu family was dismissed for no reason and was idle in the house.

And Master Zhuang admired the profound knowledge of the Qiu family, and repeatedly begged the Qiu family to go out of the mountain to be the husband of the second young master of Zhuang.

"My father said that he was old and confused, and he was afraid that he would no longer be able to teach, so he would mislead his children and let contemptible people teach on his behalf."

"Good, good!" The housekeeper of the Zhuang Mansion saw that it was the "son of the Qiu family", and said again and again, "Then I will go back to the house to report to the master first, and I will send someone to pick up Mr. Qiu after the year!" ”

"Hmm." At that time, Mr. Qiu was only seventeen years old, and he only wanted to share some of the fatigue for his father, so he disguised himself as a man and took over the work of the Zhuangfu.

After saying goodbye to his father, Master Qiu got into the carriage sent by the Zhuang government.

The bookmaker does business in the capital, is quite popular, and lives in the suburbs of the south of the city.

As the carriage passed through an open field, Akifuko saw a group of children sitting on the grass outside through the carriage window.

This year is a leap year, and it will be quite warm after the year, and the paper kite is the favorite of the children, and it is the most beautiful to sway in these weather.

There were three or two tails dragging long, and in mid-air they were like butterflies chasing each other, and the children below were full of joy.

Akiko smiled.

When the coachman outside heard this, he shouted, "Master Qiu, can I call you that?" ”

"Yes."

"Master Qiu should also run and jump at this age, my second young master is like this, although he is twelve years old, he is a little taller than Master Qiu, but he always looks like a big man, and the master can't do anything about him."

The coachman's voice was pleasant and pleasant, and although his words to the little master were criticism, there was no disgust at all.

Qiu Fuzi smiled and didn't say much.

arrived at Zhuangfu, the courtyard of the second young master.

The housekeeper stepped forward to greet Master Qiu, and replied tremblingly: "Master Qiu, forgive me, the second young master just went out to release the paper kite!" ”

"Paper kites? In that flat field on the outskirts of the city? ”

"Did you see Master Qiu when she came?"

"Hmm."

The butler was dripping with cold sweat and wiped his forehead.

I can't figure out the temperament of the young master in front of me.

"Master Qiu, don't worry, I've already sent someone to call the second young master back."

"Okay."

The housekeeper looked at Master Qiu worriedly, afraid that this gentleman who had been asked for so hard would be yellow again.

After all, the second young master in the family has already taken away countless masters.

Alas, let's take it one step at a time.

The butler went down to do something else.

Akifuko was picking up her things in the room, and when she was making the bed, a shadow pulled on her, gradually covering her.

Master Qiu quietly turned around and startled the person in front of him!

"Ahh Why did you suddenly turn around! Zhuang Xiaoling opened his teeth and claws, as if he wanted to scare Master Qiu from behind, but he was recognized.

"Zhuang Xiaoling?"

"It's Master."

"Class tomorrow, I'll wait for you in the back mountain."

Zhuang Xiaoling looked at the deserted person in front of him, and suddenly became unhappy, but he didn't want to lose anything, so he turned around and walked out.

"Classes are classes!"

After a night of restlessness, Zhuang Xiaoling arrived at the back mountain early and put on a plush coat.

After a while, Akifuko also came.

Zhuang Xiaoling looked at the thin man who was wearing little clothes, and the aura on his handsome eyebrows decreased a little, and he muttered: "Didn't the housekeeper prepare a thick jacket for you?" ”

Master Qiu was stunned for a moment before realizing what Second Young Master Zhuang was talking about, and pulled the corners of his mouth: "No, I'm not cold." ”

"Cut!"

The two entered the back mountain.

The back hill is still the property of the dealer, with man-made flowers and trees in front and a natural forest in the back.

Master Qiu walked forward: "Today, let's first recognize things." ”

The early spring is warm, and the flowers and trees on the mountain are blooming, and they are full of life.

Qiu Fuzi's pace slowed down, and wherever he went, he pointed to a tree or a flower, and motioned for Zhuang Xiaoling to give an answer.

"White, plum flower."

"Pink, cherry blossoms."

"Welcome spring."

"White plum."

"Seven leaves."

"Zhennan."

"Hazelnut."

"Green ...... Green Banyan Tree. ”

“……”

“……”

The further back he went, the fewer names Second Young Master Zhuang could answer.

"You know, that's all. All that's left is what you'll learn later. ”

Qiu Fuzi lightly summarized today's teaching and arranged the follow-up.

Second Young Master Zhuang went from silence to anger, and stopped Master Qiu, who was about to leave, dissatisfied: "What's the use of understanding this, I'm not going to be a flower farmer!" ”

Master Qiu glanced at the servant lightly, then raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Xiaoling, looked directly into his eyes, and said seriously: "If you want to know the art of all things, you must first be able to know the description of all things. ”

Second Young Master Zhuang hummed unconvinced, picked a plum blossom and put it in the palm of his hand, took a look at it, and then picked a cluster of cherry blossoms to pinch, ran to the autumn master at the gate of the mountain, panted and asked: "Then you tell me, what is the difference between these two flowers." ”

"One Ling Han, one Yingchun. The flower only knows the warmth and coldness of the years, it perceives the rotation of the four seasons, and the order of opening, does not vary from person to person, and does not differ from good to evil. At the same time, flowers are also the most aware of the changes in life. Plum blossoms will not steal the limelight of the revival of all things in spring, and cherry blossoms will lead the flower fairies to decorate the wasteland. They abide by the mission of the years and abide by their own hours, this is the flower, this is the plum blossom and the cherry blossom. ”

I thought that Second Young Master Zhuang was thinking silently, but I didn't expect him to be stunned for a while and then say: "That young master likes cherry blossoms." ”
