Bai Feng came in with a tray, "Grandma, Mrs. Xie specially asked the kitchen to stew soup for you." ”

Steward Lin immediately pulled Steward Liu to retire.

The two of them put the twenty books in the basket and lifted them, and there were only the master and servant left in the room, Bai Feng gave the soup bowl to Lin Qingwan, bowed and stepped aside.

Lin Qingwan stirred the soup with a soup spoon, "Mrs. Xie has it?" ”

Bai Feng couldn't help laughing, "Yes, Mrs. Xie was worried that you wouldn't drink it, so she drank a bowl herself." ”

Lin Qingwan shook her head and smiled, Mrs. Xie seemed to be obsessed with conditioning her body, and she always asked Dr. Xu for advice on conditioning during this time.

At first, Lin Qingwan could still drink the soup she stewed, but three times a day, some medicinal herbs were added to the soup, and the taste was always a little indescribable.

So after she drank it for a while, she resolutely stopped drinking, Mrs. Xie had no choice but to drink with her by herself, and Lin Qingwan reluctantly accompanied her.

But Lin Qingwan's pulse has not changed for more than half a month, but Mrs. Xie is making up soup, and she climbs the mountain once a day, her face is a lot ruddy, and with Lin Qingwan tossing her, her heart is gradually opened, and the sadness on her eyebrows is much less.

Mama Yang looked very happy, staring at the cook stewed soup every day, and sometimes Mrs. Xie forgot to remind her, so Lin Qingwan has been living in dire straits.

Lin Yubin expressed deep sympathy for her, but every time Lin Qingwan looked at her and wanted to ask her to help share the burden, she slipped away.

Lin Qingwan waited for the soup to become warmer, and then took it up and drank it slowly, this is to replenish qi and blood, Lin Qingwan felt fortunate that what she ate didn't seem to be able to make up for her body, otherwise she would definitely become a big fat man, and Sister Wan was going to cry to death in the underworld.

"Where's the eldest lady?"

Bai Feng took the soup bowl and said to Chunxiaoyuan: "Learn the piano from Mrs. Xie, aunt, the eldest lady is really good, almost as soon as you learn it." ”

"The Lin family has always been blessed with learning." Whether it's a boy or a girl, they're all academic bullies.

Mrs. Xie's piano skills are famous all over the world, and she was even specially summoned and praised by the Queen Mother when she was young, and I don't know how many people want to worship under her.

It's just that although Mrs. Xie is a good teacher, she is very picky, and so far she can only be looked at by Sister Wan, and only Lin Yubin.

Lin Yubin can also play the piano, but she has only learned a little, and her sister-in-law used to guide her, but since her uncle died, her sister-in-law no longer uses the piano, and Lin Yubin is not easy to mention to make her sister-in-law sad, so she can only teach herself when she goes home.

But now with Mrs. Xie's guidance, Lin Yubin's piano skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and she took the lead in the last piano class.

With such results, Lin Yubin liked the piano more and more, and almost left the archery skills he had learned to learn the piano.

It's just that the sister-in-law didn't allow it, and asked her to spend at least three quarters of an hour every day to practice archery, and promised her, "When you learn archery, I will ask the master of the family to make you two sleeve arrows." ”

Lin Yubin's black head, "Sister-in-law, it's obviously what you want, why are you pulling me as an excuse?" I don't want Hidden Arrows. ”

Lin Qingwan didn't admit that she wanted it, and nodded her forehead and argued strongly: "Danger is everywhere, do you think it's a peaceful and prosperous world now?" Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all things that cultivate sentiment, but if you really fall into danger, you will find that these things are useless, it is not as important as running fast, there is a martial arts in the body, and then there are weapons to accompany you, you have a lot more chances of living than ordinary people. ”

Lin Yubin said indifferently: "Jiangnan has been safe for a long time, it is impossible to come to Jiangnan first from where to fight, and my sister-in-law is too worried." ”

That being said, every day when she came back from school, she still went to Mrs. Xie to learn the piano after learning archery seriously, and every time Xiu Mu would take out half an hour to pull the bowstring.

She hopes that if she encounters danger one day, she can not only protect herself, but also her sister-in-law and the people around her.

Lin Qingwan also wanted to learn, but her strength didn't rise, she couldn't even pull the bow, she couldn't learn arrows at all, this body was more or less fixed at this degree, she wouldn't get sick, but she wouldn't get stronger.

She also thought about waiting for the master to do a good job of practicing the sleeve arrow, and she also had the skills of self-defense.

When Lin Qingwan arrived at Chunxiao Garden, Yubin was learning to learn the guzheng, playing the famous song of the ancient music house, the spring river flower moon night, the music was clear, the tune was tactful, she couldn't help but pause, standing on the side of the road to watch the two people under the tree.

Mrs. Xie was pointing at Yubin in a low voice, and when she looked up, she saw Qingwan, and saw that her expression was a little dazed, and she couldn't help but pause when she was about to greet her hand.

Why did she forget, Qingwan and Erlang often play this piece together, and now the tune played by Yubin is still changed by Erlang.

Mrs. Xie looked at Qingwan with some concern.

Lin Qingwan listened to this familiar but unfamiliar tune, and couldn't help leaning against the door, of course she wasn't thinking about Xie Yiming, she was thinking about her grandfather.

After she was 12 years old, she became more and more angry, and if someone in the school called her a wild seed, or talked behind her back that she didn't have her parents, she would jump out and beat people up.

During that time, her grandfather had to go to school almost every two days to bring her back, watching her grandfather bow and apologize to the teacher, she also knew that it was wrong, but she just couldn't help it.

can't suppress the anger and grief in his chest, and often he has already taken action as soon as his mind is hot. Grandfather could only let her practice calligraphy and compression, but it didn't work.

Grandfather looked at the calligraphy on the back of the paper, and silently enrolled her in the guqin class. In order to let her obediently go to this special class, her grandfather specially led her to the music shop, and played a song for her on a moonlit night in the spring river with the guzheng inside.

He told Lin Qingwan, "As long as you learn the guqin, then you will also learn the guzheng, learn one instrument and know two, and you can play whatever you want when the time comes." ”

Twelve-year-old Lin Qingwan likes the liveliness of the guzheng very much, and the sound is crisp and pleasant, which makes people happy when they listen to it, just like mountain spring water.

So she listened to her grandfather's trick and went to learn the guqin, which is thick and simple, not only difficult to learn, but also difficult to listen to when she can't play.

But Lin Qingwan has always been stubborn, and she has set a goal to complete, so she suppressed the irritability in her heart and tried to play it little by little.

From the beginning of playing for about ten minutes and walking around frantically, to finally being able to sit in front of the guqin for two hours, even if she played wrong, she no longer stomped her feet irritably, but patiently went back to turn over the score, and then when she played the wrong game and turned back without moving, her temperament was grinded.

At that time, she already knew that learning the guzheng did not mean that she would be able to learn the guzheng, and it could only be said that it would be much easier for her to learn the guzheng again, and she could learn all the ways.

But she wasn't angry then, she could already understand her grandfather's painstaking efforts, she no longer went to learn the piano, but she didn't fight people anymore for some gossip, she had learned how to ignore the malice.

"Sister Wan?" Mrs. Xie pushed her with distress in her eyes.

Lin Qingwan came back to her senses and smiled at Mrs. Xie, "Mother." ”

Yubin also dropped the zither, trotted over and hugged her arm and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Sister Danlan said that my grandmother misses us, and I have one day off tomorrow, shall we go to see my grandmother?" Madame also goes, grandmother has long wanted to see you. ”

Lin Qingwan looked at Mrs. Xie.

Seeing that Qingwan's attention was diverted, Mrs. Xie also nodded and said, "It's okay, since you have come to Suzhou, you should go to see the old lady." ”

The Xie family and the monk's family also have friendships, so she naturally won't go to visit as Lin Qingwan's mother-in-law, but as the Xie family's housewife.

Mrs. Xie turned her head and instructed Mama Yang: "Someone hand over a post to the Shang family." ”

Mama Yang glanced at Lin Qingwan and saw that the trance on her face was gone, so she responded with a smile.

Mrs. Xie took Lin Qingwan's hand and said with a smile: "Come and talk to me, I don't know what you're busy with these days, and I won't be able to see you after the morning." ”

Mrs. Xie vaguely knew that the Lin family was in trouble, she looked at Lin Qingwan with pity and said, "Let them be busy with the things outside, if there is something difficult, tell Mama Yang and let her help you." ”

Lin Qingwan didn't refuse her kindness, "When I can't solve it, I will invite Mama Yang out of the mountain, and then my mother won't think that I have taken advantage of your talents." ”

"You are my daughter-in-law, and you are also her master, and you will leave it to you in the future, how can I dislike it?"

Hearing this, Lin Qingwan's heart jumped, and even Mama Yang looked up in surprise, but she only glanced at Mrs. Xie and restrained her expression.

However, Lin Qingwan was a little hesitant, glanced at Mama Yang and said, "If my mother gives my mother to me, I will naturally be happy, but who will serve my mother?" ”

Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "There will always be times when I get old." ”

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes, she didn't think that she could live longer than Mrs. Xie, after all, when Yubin grew up, got married, and had children, her task would be completed.

It can be as short as seven or eight years, or as long as ten years, she will always leave, and then it will be the time when this body dies.

And Mrs. Xie is in the prime of life, if she can think about it, she will definitely live for a long time.

Seeing that Lin Qingwan smiled lightly, Mrs. Xie was a little flustered, and asked with a forced laugh, "Sister Wan, what problems have you encountered?" ”

"It's not too difficult, it's just that the bookstore has encountered some problems, and I have already thought of a solution."

Mrs. Xie frowned slightly, "What's wrong with the bookstore?" Your Lin family's bookstore is a time-honored brand, and it has been in the Jin Dynasty, what can be the problem? ”

"So it's not a big problem," Lin Qingwan smiled lightly: "It's just that some people are not convinced, thinking that our aunt and nephew are young and weak, so they want to replace them." ”

Mrs. Xie's face turned cold, "Falling into the well is not a hypocrite, or a real villain, who did it?" ”

Lin Qingwan didn't hide it, "Jiangdu Zhao family." ”

Lin Yubin's eyes were red with anger, "Why is it their family again?" ”

"What's the matter, the Zhao family has done other things?" Mrs. Xie turned her head to look at her.

Lin Yubin nodded aggrievedly, and said with red eyes: "Since my father's death, they have been calculating step by step, if it weren't for my sister-in-law's cleverness, we don't know how much we have suffered." ”

Mrs. Xie looked at Lin Qingwan with disgust, "Why don't you tell me these things?" ”

"It's not too difficult," Lin Qingwan said with a smile, "If I really encounter something I can't solve, I will ask my mother for help." ”

Mrs. Xie saw that she was sincere, so she believed her and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
