Bao listened to Master Lu crying for a long time, and then he knew the reason for Fang Caimen.

It turned out that Miss Lu went out to visit the spring a few days ago, and was inadvertently seen by the prefect's son, and was shocked, so she brought someone to propose marriage the next day. Seeing that he was frivolous, the Lu family only deduced that he could not be married without a matchmaker, so he took the person away for the time being, and sent another person to inquire, only to know that the prefect's son had already married a wife, and there were many concubines. The Lu family naturally refused, and refused when the matchmaker came to the door. The prefect was annoyed, so he would personally bring someone to rob him.

Master Lu cried that his daughter has been pampered since she was a child and is talented, so she must find a satisfactory son-in-law. In previous years, when Zhang Feihu was still living here, he also planned to give his daughter to this young military attaché, but his daughter disliked him as a gentle martial artist and refused to give in. This prefect is both white and has many vices, and he still wants to be a concubine, and his daughter refuses to marry even if she dies.

Zhang Baohaosheng appeased Master Lu, sent him away, thought about it carefully, and thought that he had intervened today, if that person knew what was good, he should no longer come to entangle, and he was about to avoid the limelight now, so he should wait and see first.

Who knew that the prefect's son was not a good person, and the next day he brought people to entangle, and even went directly to the inner courtyard to rob people. Unexpectedly, Miss Na Lu stood on the embroidery floor, put a pair of scissors against her neck, and threatened the group to retreat, saying that she would not marry such a gentleman if she was dead. Mrs. Lu was so frightened that she fainted, and Master Lu couldn't persuade her. I had to hug my son and cry.

The housekeeper of the Lu family was a clever man, and quietly called someone to invite Zhang Bao. When Zhang Bao hurried over from the field, the prefect had already commanded the slave to snatch the scissors, Miss Lu was ruthless, and she hit the corner of the table, but fortunately, the maids pulled quickly, only hit a small cut on the forehead, and they were bleeding non-stop. Miss Lu had already fainted.

Zhang Bao ordered someone to help pull the prefect away. The man was annoyed. Then he said, "Why are you so nosy? But like my father, he is a prefect, and he is still an inappropriate person, don't you know the truth that it is better to demolish a temple than destroy a marriage? ”

Zhang Bao laughed angrily: "I don't know the truth? I am an official, you are a white body, when you see that I don't salute, you don't say anything, but you contradict me. So you're a sensible person? Maybe you robbed the people's daughter and almost killed you, I'll send you to see the official first, and see how the people of Shuntianfu treat you, the son of the prefect of the Daimyo Mansion. ”

When the prefect heard this, he was afraid. His father was the prefect of the Daimyo Mansion, and this mountain was far away from his jurisdiction, so he was really going to make trouble. I'm afraid that my family can't save me. I had to hum a few words to the Lu family and walked away. Zhang Bao didn't stop him, and first asked the doctor to treat Miss Lu.

When Zhang Bao left. Before the onlookers dispersed, a young scholar was filled with indignation and said ruthlessly: "It's really a bad day! In broad daylight, the son of a small prefect dared to commit murder and rob the daughter of this big family as a concubine. What are the officials and locals doing?! He was so angry that he wanted to scold, and he was already dragged away by a junior next to him who covered his mouth.

Wang Er saw Zhang Bao looking at the scholar, so he reported back: "That is the nephew of the Li family after Lin Zihou, and he is also the son of the current imperial examination, and he lived in his uncle's house after falling off the list, and I heard that he will return to Shanxi in a few days." ”

Zhang Bao did not speak, and as soon as he returned home, he began to write to the daimyo prefect. This prefect is the same year as Chen Liangben, and his official reputation is still passable, but he can't help his son who is doted on by the old people in the family. Zhang Bao wrote a letter to explain the matter, and said that Fangshan is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and now it is also surging upwards, and persuaded him to take care of his son, so as not to be stabbed into Beijing, but he will miss his own future.

The Daimyo's Mansion was a one-day journey, and the prefect received the letter and hurriedly ordered his family to bring his son back. Although his son was not convinced, he heard that Miss Lu had a scar on her forehead and her appearance was ruined, so he lost his interest and went home obediently.

The Lu family breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Zhang Baomen again. In addition to her talent, his daughter has a reputation for being chaste in the countryside. When Shuning heard this, she also admired it very much, and reflected on herself a little, whether it was too unkind to laugh at Miss Lu behind her back in the past, in fact, she was just an overconfident person, but this kind of self-confidence is also the source of self-esteem and self-love.

Wan Ning was bored, and when she heard about Miss Lu's affairs, she was very interested, and instigated Shuning to invite Miss Na Lu to come over as a guest, or visit the Lu family at the other side. Shuning was unhappy in her heart, and said, "Miss Lu is recuperating from her injuries, how can she be alarmed?" If my sister has free time, it is better to read more books and practice needlework. ”

She was very reluctant to let Miss Lu see Wanning. Lu Ziyu's self-confidence stems from her talent, if she sees Wanning and suffers a blow, it will not be good, so even Yuehe doesn't want Lu Ziyu to see it. Wanning wanted to send Yuehe to send something to the Lu family to condole, so she excused herself that there was a daughter-in-law in the other courtyard who went out to deliver things full-time, and she didn't need the big girl in the inner house to send it, so she sent Wang Er's family to send it in person.

Wanning stayed in the courtyard for two or three days and felt very depressed. She wanted to go out for a walk, but the gatekeeper refused to let her go, and she had to repay Zhang Bao and Shuning's father and daughter. Shu Ning would definitely stop her, Zhang Bao would sometimes allow her to go with her to the slopes of the fields, but there were always a large number of people following, and she couldn't even talk to a village girl or a little shepherd boy, and she was more restrained than in the Earl's Mansion in the capital.

The maids who brought it were not allowed to go out at will, and even the green brother who lived in the front yard couldn't see it as soon as he wanted. And those in charge of the place said that it was not good for the guests to do things, and refused Fang Qingge to help them go out to buy. If it weren't for Fang Qingge's cleverness and coaxing a few old people in the gatehouse, it would be difficult for them to even find out what news was outside. The subordinate Yahuan of this courtyard is also angry, no matter how they buy it, they just laugh and don't say anything, forcing them to accept benefits, they also accept it, and ask them to help do things, but they just refuse. As soon as he turned around, there was a steward to speak, and he returned those benefits, so that Wanning's master and servant were faceless.

Wan Ning talked about boredom every day, so Shuning simply dragged her to Mr. Cai to attend class together. Mr. Cai is also very happy. It's just that as soon as the class began, Wan Ning's face began to look ugly.

For example, Qin, Wanning has not dropped it all these years. It's just that she loves to play the songs of later generations, although she can't remember it clearly, but she also made it up by herself. Because she was only shot in her room, and no one said anything. But Mr. Cai's class is a serious ancient song, which Wanning thinks is not good and lacks interest.

For example, chess, no one in the house plays with her. She only likes to play backgammon with the girls. The level of Go is compared to when he was ten years old. It's even worse.

Calligraphy is upside down, she practices from time to time Hit the Zhu Ding, the writing is okay, but it can't compare to Shuning, who works hard every day.

As for painting, Shuning had already learned Gongbi Loutai, and Mr. Cai taught her flower embroidery landscapes in order to make Wan Ning. But Wan Ning painted well except for the flowers

, all more like embroidery.

Seeing the disappointment on Mr. Cai's face, she felt that she had lost face in front of her cousin, so she avoided the important and inscribed some poems on the painting. This is all her own idea, but she is worthy of the name of the "talented girl", which is quite praised by Mr. Cai. But this kind of thing is too much brain-draining. Who is impatient to go every day? So it didn't take two days. She said she was sick and refused to go to talent classes again.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Cai was worried about her and sent a little girl to ask. But it just happened to break the truth that she was pretending to be sick. Mr. Cai sighed gloomily and silently returned to his residence, and the next day, the news came that he was sick.

After Shuning learned about it, she hurriedly called someone to ask for a doctor, and persuaded Mr. Cai: "The second sister has been concentrating on learning the rules of needlework in the past few years, and it is not surprising that she is a little relaxed in her homework, so Mr. Don't be too sad." ”

Mr. Cai sighed: "I'm not sad about this, but Sister Ling obviously has good talent, but she is unwilling to work hard, and she ends up like this, and she is another Zhongyong." Zhong Yong was mistaken by his family, but Sister Ling gave up on her own. I'm just sighing, I'll be fine in two days. ”

Shuning didn't say much, but asked Mr. Yang to enlighten Mr. Cai more. Since Mr. Yang moved out of the hospital, he moved into this courtyard to live with Mr. Cai.

Wan Ning never came to visit Mr. Cai once, and was relieved to see that Mr. Cai did not urge him to go to class again after he recovered from his illness. Recently, Fang Qingge coaxed a lonely old woman in the front yard to be happy, recognized her godmother, and occasionally went out, she hurried up to ask Fang Qingge to find out the news of Yunju Temple.

Waiting for the news was very boring, she remembered that she visited the garden a few days ago, and she took it with Shu Ning, and she only walked halfway, and when she saw that the sky was just right, she brought two big girl rings, and Shi Shiran went to the garden.

Shuning was taking care of housework in the main room of the second courtyard, but she heard a report from the little girl, saying that the second girl had screwed up with Niu Xiaosi in the garden, and asked her to go and see it. Shuning hurriedly rushed over to take a look, and sure enough, she saw Qiaoyun arguing with Niu Xiaosi from a distance, went over to pull people away, and asked clearly, only to know that Wanning wanted to take someone from the woods to play in the Pillow Xia Pavilion, but was stopped by Niu Xiaosi, Qiaoyun thought he had offended his own girl, so he quarreled.

Shuning secretly gave Niu Xiaosi an appreciative look, and then put on a smiling face and said to Wanning: "This kid didn't make his words clear, but he didn't deliberately bump into his sister, and asked my sister not to be surprised." This forest, the water pavilion, and the opposite hillside are usually not allowed to go to the idlers......"

Before she finished speaking, Yuehe interjected without yin or yang: "The third girl said so, could it be that our girl is also an idle person?" Shuning frowned and said, "I'm talking to your girl, what are you talking about?" ”

In Yuehe's room, Wan Ning helped her speak first: "Why did the third sister say that?" I've always been like Yuehe and Qiaoyun are sisters, and they just help me speak. ”

Shuning smiled, ignored it, and continued: "The reason why no one is allowed to go is because last year and this year, someone was stung by Mifeng in the forest, and the injury was serious; There are snakes, insects, rats and ants on the mountain, and they are afraid that they will bite people; And the water in the small lake is also very deep, and a few people have been drowned, although no one has died, it is very dangerous in the end, so my mother will order that no one is allowed to go to these places at will. This Niu Xiaosi's elder brother was stung by a bee and damaged his face, so he was particularly loyal. ”

Niu Xiaosan's injury was healed early, but Niu Xiaosi was very clever and nodded along with his girl's tone.

Wan Ning's face turned cloudy and smiled: "So that's the case, just say it directly, what are you trying to stop me from?" Actually, I saw that the water pavilion was quite beautiful, so I just thought about it. ”

Shuning narrowed her eyes, feeling that there was no one in the Pillow Xia Pavilion now, so it was better for her to let her, so as not to arouse her suspicions, so she smiled and said, "Then I'll take my sister to see it, let's go to the bamboo bridge." ”

When she walked to the Pillow Xia Pavilion, Wan Ning looked inside and out, and felt that the place was really beautiful, and saw that there was a bed, so she asked, "Can people live here?" Shall I come to live there? ”

Shuning still smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's not very convenient." It's a special pack-up here.,Specially to receive my brother's friends.。 The second sister has probably also heard of it, that is, the prince of Prince Jian's mansion, Tongying Fuguogong, he sometimes comes to stay for two or three days, as long as the weather is warm, he will stay in the pavilion, saying that the scenery here is good, the place is spacious, and the eyes are clear in the water. ”

She took Tong Ying out as a shield, thinking that he was familiar with her family, so she probably wouldn't mind. Although since he turned out Sisi's belt in the pavilion, he has paid attention to the sanitation and cleaning of the place, and must ensure that there is no trace of Sisi's coming. But there is always a case, if there is really any flaw, it makes sense to push it on Tongying.

Wan Ning is not very interested in Tongying: "Oh, I've seen it, it's a painting nerd, I didn't think it at first, but then I found out that when he speaks, he will mention what ink and paper, where the paint is good, and who is good at painting people, who is the best at painting flowers and birds, it's really suffocating." ”

Shuning was silent: Did she say that the land was Tongying? Recognize the wrong person, right?

When she got out of the garden, Shuning was about to break up with Wanning, so she lowered her voice and said to her: "What the second sister said before that Qiaoyun and Yuehe are like sisters, it's better not to say it in the future." If the girls have become your sisters, who are I, my eldest sister, my fourth sister, and my cousin? Fortunately, I heard it today, but if it were other sisters, I was afraid that I would be annoyed. According to me, my sister treats Qiaoyun as a sister, which is a bit excessive, but Yuehe is just that, after all, she didn't sign a death deed, and after two years, she will still be a good citizen, and it is not too out of place to recognize a sister. ”

She said these words "bitterly", and did not give Wan Ning a chance to defend, so she went back to the second courtyard, sneering in her heart: I will remind you again today, if you continue to be fooled by Yuehe like this, I will not care.

I don't know what Wan Ning thinks after hearing this, but there seems to be no change for the time being.

She recently went to Ciyun Nunnery with Xiao Liu to eat fast, although the food was delicious, but the topic of Xiao Liu and her sister-in-law was very boring. When I wanted to walk around the hermitage, there were a bunch of people following. told them not to follow, but those people said that they were ordered by the master to take care of the second girl. Wan Ning couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

However, she finally arrived at a place far away from the courtyard, and quickly persuaded Xiao Liu to take her to Yunju Temple to offer incense.
