Chapter 726: Enlightenment
An Shi's eyes lit up suddenly.
Although he did use the piano to achieve his ambition just now, ordinary people can hear the bubbling of the spring water and the chirping of birds, and feel that their hearts are open, and they realize that he is pinning his affection on the landscape. But the one who can accurately hear what he thinks in his heart and point out the words he wants to express is the only human ear so far.
The young man in front of him, whose appearance and temperament are above him, is either brilliant in piano skills, or he has a clear mind and can perceive everything. Or both.
He stomped deeply: "It is an honor for An Shi to be able to play the piano for the young master." โ
His kick is different from the previous one. The previous kick was forced by the situation and had to succumb to Du Jinning; And now, he's genuinely convinced.
Du Jinning bowed his head slightly and looked at Yao Shuqi: "Steward Yao, there is a corner of the garden that has been built, right?" Is there a courtyard where people can live? โ
"Yes, it's been built and can live in it." Yao Shuqi hurriedly said.
"Then let Anshi live there."
Saying that, Du Jinning looked at An Shi: "I think you also have some money on hand, I suggest you go and buy two people now." It's a huge garden, and you live alone, it's too desolate. And ......"
She glanced at An Shi's hand: "The pianist's hands need to be maintained, and someone has to do the rough work of washing and cooking for you." โ
An Shi smacked deeply gratefully: "Thank you, young master, for thinking about the villain." โ
He was cultivated as a celebrity in the Chu Pavilion, and he has been carefully served by his subordinates since he was a child, and he really can't do laundry and cooking. Du Jinning said that his hands need to be maintained, but it is just to save face for him.
In addition, he has been in the Chu Pavilion for so many years, and he has some savings. Now that life is settled, it is really not difficult to come up with some money to buy two or three people.
He also understood Du Jinning's intention to let him buy people by himself. If Du Jinning was to give him someone himself, he would definitely suspect that Du Jinning was using these subordinates to spy on him and imprison him. But it's different when he buys people himself. The deed is in his hand, and the monthly silver of the subordinates is also received from him, and these people are his people, and there is no such thing as surveillance or imprisonment, and he makes it easy for him to arouse these subordinates.
"Of course, if you feel the need, it's okay to ask Steward Yao to arrange two subordinates for you. You can discuss these with Steward Yao. Du Jinning said, picking up the teacup.
"Yes, the villain is retiring." An Shi hurriedly picked up the piano and saluted Du Jinning.
Yao Shuqi said: "If the young master has no other instructions, I will go and arrange for Anshi." โ
"Go ahead." Du Jinning stood up and walked out of the courtyard.
She returned to the small courtyard where she lived, slowly polished the ink, and wrote a word: "Don't be shocked by the humiliation, watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court; Go and stay unintentionally, wandering with the clouds outside the sky. โ
This couplet, from the Ming Dynasty Chen Jiru's "The Story of the Small Window" and Hong Yingming's "Caigen Tan", is a peaceful and natural state of mind, which is very suitable for comfort.
When the ink was dry, she instructed Aoki, "Send it to Anshi." โ
"Yes." Aoki rolled the paper, put it in a shaft, and sent it to a comfortable new place in the garden.
This matter is just that Du Jinning saw such a person as An Shi and listened to him for a piece of the piano, and he felt it in his heart, so he remembered such a sentence, wrote such a word, and gave it to An Shi, and that's it, and there is no deep meaning. After sending the letter, she put the matter behind her and continued to patrol the fields.
On Qi Muyuan's side, although he pondered Du Jinning's words all the way, he didn't dare to delay in the slightest on the itinerary, and finally entered the city before the city gate was closed.
"Young Master, are you back? The old lady asked a few times. The porter trotted into the door with Qi Muyuan, and came to Qi Muyuan and handed over a word.
"Got it." Qi Muyuan strode inward, with long legs and long feet, and after a while, he turned behind the shadow wall and was out of sight.
Guanqi took out a small handful of copper plates and sent the gatekeeper away, and followed closely.
If the porter didn't deliver the message, Qi Muyuan planned to go back to his courtyard to freshen up and change his clothes first, and then go to greet his grandfather. But when the porter handed over the message, he did not go back, but went directly to Qi Bokun.
Qi Bokun also estimated that Qi Muyuan would come back at this time and was waiting in the hall.
Seeing his grandson come in and salute him, he said softly: "Okay, I've been riding a horse for a day, are you tired?" Hurry up and sit down. โ
When Qi Muyuan sat down at his bottom, he raised his hand, and some people successively served hot water and towels to Qi Muyuan to wash his face and hands.
The old lady of the Qi family died ten years ago, and Qi Bokun did not remarry, but there was a concubine by his side. This old aunt has no children and no daughters, and her temperament is quiet, she never makes trouble, and Qi Bokun has no intention of lifting her up, so she doesn't have much sense of existence in Qi Mansion.
Because of the old aunt, Qi Bokun's yard has always had maids.
The people who gave Qi Mu the water from the far end just now were the two maids.
Qi Muyuan has never cared about these, but Guanqi glanced at these two maids.
He had never seen these two maids before, and they should have only entered the mansion in the past two days. And what made him muttered a little in his heart was that the two maids were extremely pretty, one was dignified and quiet, and the other was lively and cute. That's a bit of an anomaly.
You know, Qi Bokun has never liked too beautiful maids or little maids. He thinks that such people are easy to attract bees and butterflies and cause trouble. He was tired enough of political affairs, and when he came home, he wanted to relax and be comfortable, and he didn't want to deal with trouble.
And now, there are beautiful maids in the old lady's yard, and there are still two of them, so I can't help but think about it too much.
He raised his eyes and looked at his young master. But when he saw it, he was stunned.
Qi Muyuan didn't know if he was influenced by his mother, or if he was born like this, he avoided the beautiful maid even more than Qi Bokun. Usually in his own yard, he doesn't let the maid to serve; And when he went to his mother Su Shi to say goodbye, when there were maids who offered him courtesy, he was often embarrassed by his indifference and indifferenceโno matter how beautiful the other party was, he never looked at them squarely, and was completely flattering to the blind.
But what do you see now?
At this time, although Qi Muyuan was washing his hands, his mind was obviously not on washing his hands, but staring at the hand of the maid holding the basin.
Guanqi followed Qi Muyuan's gaze, and saw that the maid had slender jade fingers, snow-white skin, fingers like onion roots, and her hands were indeed very beautiful.
It was the elegant maid who served the water, and at this time, seeing the young master's eyes attracted by her beautiful hands, she was shy, and secretly rejoiced in her heart.
The other lively, seeing this, was unwilling, and hurriedly put the cloth towel in his hand into the basin, and asked Qi Muyuan: "Young master, do you want the slave to wipe your face with a handkerchief?" โ
Qi Bokun took great pains to break his grandson. He specially asked the old aunt to buy two beautiful maids to come in, hoping that these maids would be able to climb into Qi Muyuan's bed and give birth to grandchildren for the Qi family. Maybe Qi Muyuan tasted the taste of a woman and became normal?
At this time, seeing Qi Muyuan staring at the maid's hand, he was so happy in his heart that he couldn't wait for Qi Muyuan to refuse, and said continuously: "Yes, yes, twist the handkerchief and wipe your face." It was dusty and dirty along the way. โ
Hey, this kid, hey, finally got the hang of it.
