Chapter 035: Night Talk
Gu Yu came to the study, and at the same time called Shiqin and Shihua to the study, but Miaowei stood anxiously outside the door, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped, looking extremely pitiful.
"Sister Miaowei, why don't you go and rest, lady has me and Miaoyu waiting here, you can rest assured." Shiqin said with a smile.
Miaowei's face couldn't help but turn even paler, let her rest is to think that she is an eyesore or useless, the lady has really become more and more alienated and cold to her since she got these two maids, and she doesn't even seem to feel her existence.
"Yes......" hesitated for a while, Miaowei still held back the tears in her eyes, smiled and bowed to Shiqin and Shihua, "Then it's hard for the two sisters to take good care of the lady!" Thanks a lot! ”
"What are these words, taking care of the lady is also our duty!" The poem and painting continued.
Miaowei felt even more embarrassed, bowed again, turned around and trotted away, but unexpectedly, a voice suddenly came from behind her: "You wait!" ”
This is...... Lady's voice!
Miaowei was overjoyed, stood up straight, turned around, and saw that the lady was coming out of the curtain, so she said, "What does the lady command?" ”
Gu Yu said: "You prepare a feather fan, Ruyi, square mattress and tailoring, and go to Yuquan Mountain with me tomorrow!" ”
Going to Yuquan Mountain? In other words, to participate in the Xianyuan Poetry Club of Bilan Pavilion on Yuquan Mountain? The lady actually took her to participate in the Xianyuan Poetry Meeting, which was a banquet that only nobles with status could attend!
Miao Wei suddenly felt that her chest was as if a warm spring poured in, and she couldn't help but gush out of her eyes for a while, wiped a handful of tears, and said happily: "Okay, slave go and prepare immediately!" ”
This time, he trotted away without any grievances on his face.
She didn't want her to hear them, and the girl was always in front of her very inappropriately, or eavesdropping, or interrupting her to do something important, like the last time when she was about to unveil the violinist's hat.
Whether she was intentional or unintentional, sincere or extremely good at falsification, she could no longer trust her as she did in her previous life.
Take her to Yuquan Mountain, just to test it, is there any kind of connection between her and Huan Che?
"Lady, what are you going to do with the cuts?" While she was thinking, Shihua asked curiously, have you ever heard that girls have to bring tailoring or something like that when they go out.
Gu Yu smiled and didn't answer, but said, "This time I went to the Xianyuan Yaji Poetry Meeting, I may not bring you!" ”
Hearing this, the eyes of the poems and paintings will inevitably darken, this is a rare opportunity, I heard that the healthy scholars such as Langya Wang, Chenjun Xie, Gaoping Xi, Yingchuan and Langjun of the Qian Guohuan clan will come here to participate in the Qing Tan Yaji hosted by Yi Shaogong, although it is different from the virtuous poetry of the noble girls, but they are all on Yuquan Mountain, and those noble ladies are nothing more than looking for this opportunity to let the old lady of the Wu County Gu family and the Lu family hold this banquet.
Shiqin quipped: "The lady won't let us go, there must be something important for us to do!" ”
Gu Yu smiled, raised his hand and motioned for the two maids to come to the bookcase, then took out the book slip and wolf hair, and said, "Yanmo, I'll teach you to write!" ”
Shiqin was overjoyed, but she didn't expect the lady to remember this incident, she thought that these things had happened, and the lady would forget it, but she didn't think about it......
Deeply moved in her heart, Shiqin said "eh", hurriedly came to the desk, picked up the ink ingot, added water to the inkstone, and carefully and evenly pushed and grinded it in one direction, this kind of thing she had done a lot when she was by the old lady's side before, so it was also very easy to do, meticulous, and after a while, a delicate ink was presented in front of Gu Yu.
Gu Yu praised it casually, and then picked up the pen and wrote it on a book like flowing water, this time she did not use Wang Yishao's grass and subordinate books, but the extremely beautiful hairpin flower Xiaokai, which is easier for beginners to accept.
"Lady, although the words you wrote this time are different from last time, they are also extremely good-looking, last time they were shaped like a dragon, this time they are like a flower arrangement dancer, and the beauty is on stage, anyway, they are all beautiful!" After saying that, his expression darkened again, "I'm afraid that the slave is one of the tenths who can't get used to a lady in his life!" ”
"Therefore, if you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles. If you don't accumulate small streams, you can't become a river. The gentleman said, green, taken from blue, and green in blue, learning is like this, writing is also the same, and doing everything is even more so.
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold! ”
I vaguely remember that Huan Che had also said this sentence to her, at that time, she couldn't practice calligraphy well, or she couldn't practice to the extent he wanted, so he punished her for grinding ink for a whole day and night, until her arms were sore and swollen, and she still didn't stop.
Later, she wrote day and night, over and over again, step by step, perfectly, just to get a word of praise from him, or to see his smile that could be satisfied.
Thinking about it, Gu Yu secretly smiled bitterly, got up again, asked Shiqin to come to the place where he was standing, and ordered: "Come, you can write it yourself!" ”
Shiqin responded happily again, came to Gu Yu, picked up the pen and wrote carefully on the book, but unexpectedly, her hand shook, but a little black juice dripped on the book.
Shiqin was embarrassed, and her face turned red.
"It's okay, it's going to be a little nervous at first." Gu Yu encouraged again.
"Has the lady ever been nervous? You can't see the wonderful wind. Shiqin joked again, and sighed secretly in her heart, I really haven't seen the lady when she is nervous, the lady seems to understand everything, and she can understand everything.
"You write, I'll read it!" Gu Yu didn't answer her words, but read directly, "One coin of angelica, two coins of mulberry white bark, one coin of loquat leaves, three coins of white flower snake tongue grass, one coin of soil fritillary, two coins of Angelica dahurica, three coins of cloud ginseng, and four coins of licorice......
As Gu Yu continued to read like this, the poems and paintings were both confused and puzzled.
"Lady, this is ...... Is this all the name of the herb? Shiqin was even more surprised.
Gu Yu then said: "Yes, the name of the medicinal materials, after you finish writing, I will come to see that none of the medicinal materials in this can be wrong, not less, and not the slightest difference!" ”
Shiqin felt that the original lady asked her to write these things for a purpose, and it was of great significance, and she became nervous unconsciously.
"You are right just now, I do have important things for you to do, so you have to learn more things in the future in order to meet my requirements and stand on a higher place."
"If you want to stand on a higher place and see more beautiful scenery, first of all, you have to make yourself a scenery that people can't ignore and make yourself more useful!"
After that, she turned to the poetry and painting that had been standing aside without speaking, and said, "Miaoyu, can you understand the meaning of my words?" ”
Shihua's heart trembled, his face was shocked, and he hurriedly bent his head and said: "Lady, Miaoyu has no complaints in her heart!" She just felt that she couldn't go to Yuquan Mountain with her mother, and she felt a pity, but she didn't expect that this little bit of caution could be seen by the lady, the lady is really ......
"I don't mean to blame you!" Gu Yu smiled slightly, and then had a solemn facelift, "After the eldest lady hands over the personnel account books to me, Miao Yu, you will take care of the account books in the future, and report to me after sorting out the transfers of some personnel in the house and their origins in chronological order!" ”
Shiqin looked horrified, and couldn't hide the joy in her heart, so she hurriedly said: "Yes!" ”
After speaking, Gu Yu turned to Shiqin again and instructed, "As for you, practice calligraphy well, it will also be good for you in the future, in addition, according to the medicinal materials I just read, you will go to the Fulisi Pharmacy tomorrow to get them and give them to Chen Yu." ”
"This matter, you can't say that I need it, and you can't let more people in the mansion know about it, so this matter is more difficult for you to do, you need to have a good relationship with the manager of the pharmacy, and you can't let her know your intentions, can you do it?"
"Is the lady asking for those medicines for ......" Shiqin couldn't help asking, but why can't people know? She suddenly thought that when she was asked by the old man in Yixin Hall today if she could cure Aunt Shen's illness, the lady said that she didn't know how to medicine, but now it seems that she clearly understands......
Gu Yu didn't want to confess to her grandfather, and she didn't want people to see her as a monster who could do anything, although she was now a monster in the mansion, which scared a little people.
What's more, Shen's is not a disease, but poisoning, in her previous life, she had known many kinds of poisons in the world under Huan Che's training, and she could also prepare corresponding antidotes, but the poison on Shen's body, she was not sure, the only way to use it was to use these drugs to temporarily suppress the toxicity, so as not to make her too painful and crazy.
But she must not let the murderer hidden in the shadows know about this matter.
When Shiqin saw Gu Yu groaning, she also realized in her heart, and replied cautiously: "Yes!" ”
After explaining this, Gu Yu also went back to sleep in the bedroom, she needed to take care of her spirits and do tomorrow's things.
And tomorrow's thing...... Gu Yu thought about it, and didn't know if Zhang Shishilang could understand the meaning of the book she gave?
……
"The wind is clear on Langya Mountain, the drunk and lying in the moon are different, the water in Peach Blossom Lake is thousands of feet deep, how can you know that the dragon and the tiger are jumping?"
The long night was silent, the pine breeze was in the ears, and the sound of the piano came from a gazebo.
After listening to the poem read by Zhang Shishilang, the man in Tsing Yi wearing a hat covered his hand and stopped plucking the strings under his hand.
"This poem is not a poem, what do you mean by Shi Niang sending me this? It doesn't seem to be like what is said in the Book of Songs, 'Weishi and the woman, Yiqi scorned each other, and gave them a spoonful of medicine'. After that, Zhang Shishilang came up to the man in Tsing Yi and said with a smile, "Qilang, can you help me guess?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi pondered for a moment, took the book in Zhang Shilang's hand, and read it carefully word by word.
"On Langya Mountain...... Drunk and lying in the moon......" The man in Tsing Yi recited it again, "Do these two sentences imply the name of King Langya?" ”
Zhang Shishilang's eyebrows frowned slightly, his expression froze, and he seemed to suddenly say: "Langya Wang Mingyue, just the same as the word moon, so what do the last two sentences mean?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi looked at the book again, and looked at it for a long time as if he was engrossed, before he shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe you are hinting that King Langya will encounter something when he comes to Jinling this time to patrol, right?" But...... The word ......"
"How? That's a good handwriting, isn't it? How does it compare to your third uncle's handwriting? Or rather, how does it compare to your words? Zhang Shishilang asked with a smile and a provocative smile.
The man in Tsing Yi still held the book and stared at it like he couldn't put it down, and after a long time, he put it down and said, "Ande? My third uncle's character is Jiangzuo's first product, and few people can match it! ”
"Isn't it as good as Yi Shaogong?" Zhang Twelve Lang asked again.
The man in Tsing Yi fell silent at this time, and his silence was an admission that although his third uncle's words were good, it was difficult to surpass Wang Yishao, who was known as the "book saint".
"Okay, you just don't want to admit that this is written by Eleven Niang, and you are so arrogant, you want to save face!" Zhang Shishilang stood opposite the man in Tsing Yi again, and said, "I said you!" Obviously, your family background is prominent, you just sit at home every day to eat and drink, and you will have a good future in the future as your identity. Why do you have to pretend to be some poor kid, travel around to study, and deceive other people's sisters-in-law......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Shishilang sneered.
"You don't understand, the prosperity and long-term inheritance of a family does not depend on the strength of one person or a generation. Don't you see, the Lu clan who crossed south with us gradually lost because there were no outstanding children among the younger generations? If you want the family to prosper, you must have hundreds of children in the clan, and prosper from generation to generation! ”
"This is what you call 'Zhilan Yushu Courtyard'?" Zhang Shishilang answered, laughed again, changed the conversation, and asked again, "However, why do you have to get along with the eleventh mother of the Gu family?" If you want me to lie to her with you, I feel very disturbed in my conscience...... When I saw her eyes, I wondered if I had the word 'liar' written on my face. ”
The man in Tsing Yi couldn't help laughing, his fingers fell on the strings again, and suddenly the crane sound protruded, like a long roar.
"What would you do if you knew that there was someone who would affect the fate of your family, or the fate of the Great Jin Dynasty?" He said.
