The next day, Ren Shenzhi returned to Huaixing Academy, and before leaving, he went to Duanyi Garden to say goodbye, because the academy was close, You Ruoheng and Ban didn't care much, and only told him a few words to be diligent and not slack.

A few days after Ren Shenzhi left, Zhuo Chuan suddenly came back from the academy and brought Zhuo Zhaocui's letter, which was nothing more than greetings and renews safety, among which there was another letterhead to You Ruoheng, Zhuo Zhaojie speculated that his brother-in-law was afraid that he had encountered some problems - before Zhuo Zhuo Zhuo left, he still went to Binwei Courtyard to ask for peace, and asked Zhuo Zhaojie if he had a letter to bring to Zhuo Zhaocui, Zhuo Zhaojie thought about it, so he asked him to wait a little, and went into the study by himself, so that Mingji Yanmo quickly wrote a letter, and sealed it to Zhuo Zhuo Zhuo after drying.

In the letter she wrote, in addition to greeting and reporting safety as usual, it implicitly mentioned that Zhuo Zhaocui should take care of some prudent people in his livelihood 'privately', which is not a difficult thing for Zhuo Zhaocui, and besides, Ban did not hesitate to bear his own grievances, isn't it just to make the younger generations able to be harmonious?

Zhuo slowly accepted the letter, thanked Ming Ye for the reward, and withdrew, the courtyard 'door' was not closed, but he saw that the coral who was serving Ban's led two little messengers with things to come over.

At this time, Zhuo Zhaojie was standing on the cloister, and before he returned to the house, he stopped and asked, "What did you take?" ”

Coral smiled and saluted, and said: "Fang Cai Sanniang took a rest under the begonia tree, lychee and longan waited, I didn't want longan to call the bee to sting, the old lady knew, remembered that there was this soft smoke tent in the library, so she asked the maid to take the deputy over, saying that there is only one begonia in Sanniang's yard, and Qi Niang has an apricot and a peach here, and the bees and butterflies are afraid of more." ”

"My grandmother treated me so well." Zhuo Zhaojie sighed with emotion, "I still want you to run this trip." ”

"The servant is an errand snatched from the tortoiseshell." Coral covered her mouth and smiled, "Not to mention that the apricot peach here is a famous scene in Moling City, even if you ask the maid to take a few glances at Qi Niang, you don't feel hungry!" ”

Minghe smiled on the side: "Sister teach me a lesson, how can you not be hungry?" ”

"Not really." Coral smiled and said, "Is it delicious to show off your 'color'?" ”

Everyone in the courtyard laughed.

Zhuo Zhaojie has heard a lot of words praising his beauty since he was a child, and he didn't care, and said: "Then this tent is in the courtyard, the left and right 'doors' and windows are 'covered' with green veil, and bees can't get in." ”

Coral nodded, "Isn't it?" It is now this season that the 'girls' love to rest under the 'flower' tree will be stung. ”

One apricot and one peach two hundred-year-old trees in this Binwei courtyard are originally one in the east of the courtyard and one in the west of the courtyard, but because of the age, after the branches are prosperous, they each occupy half of the yard, but the whole yard is full, and the apricot branches and peach branches are 'intertwined' with each other above the cobbleball path in the middle, and the pink and white peach reflect each other, which is really like a mist and beautiful.

At the same time, the rain and wind have passed, and the large clusters of 'flower' petals are pouring down - as long as the 'flower' period is not, the branches are always clusters of clouds, as if they can't fall, as if they are faint but under careful inspection, they seem to be overwhelming The fragrance of 'flowers' fills the entire courtyard, and this Moling City is almost a well-known scene, if it weren't for You Ruoheng's special writing for this Binwei Courtyard after you Ruoheng did Hanlin, everyone knew that the You family had such a courtyard, and it was estimated that even the house would have been forcibly bought.

Even Zhuo Zhaojie, who has lived in this courtyard for nearly ten years, feels reluctant every time he thinks of returning to Chang'an after the end of the river - the Marquis of Chang'an Mansion is luxurious, even if he can find a house with a century-old 'flower' tree, but the 'flower' there blooms like a brocade, and the cooperation of the Jiangnan willow wind and apricot 'flower' rain is lost......

Zhuo Zhaojie looked at the 'flower' branch above his head, sighed leisurely, and said, "Just stand under the apricot tree." ”

——A few years ago, a swing frame was erected under the peach tree, and in order to make the swing look good, a dogll wisteria was planted under the swing frame, which was brought to the swing, and the swing was dressed up as a cluster of 'flowers', and those 'flower' trees took up a lot of places, but because it was a hundred-year-old peach tree, the tree was stout, and it was not that there was no place to place the tent, but the position was not as free as under the apricot tree.

Coral smiled and asked, "What does Qi Niang do not support in the middle?" It's best to look up like this. ”

"I'm afraid it will rain suddenly." Zhuo Zhaojie shook his head and said, "Jiangnan is already rainy, but as long as it is not very big, it will not get wet under the two trees next to it, and it will avoid the trouble of collecting it back and forth." ”

"Qi Niang is so smart, but the maid is a stupid person, and she almost gave Qi Niang a bad idea." Coral couldn't help but cover her mouth.

Zhuo Zhaojie pursed his lips and smiled: "If you are stupid, there will be no clever person in front of your grandmother...... You have a good idea, but I'm a lazy person. ”

Immediately went into the house and chose a Xiangfei couch that used to be carried to the yard for the cool glazed clouds, and a few low tables, tea sets and other things, Mingji went out and called a few sturdy rough envoys to come, and carried it to the bottom of the branch where the apricot "flower" bloomed most densely under the apricot "flower" tree - this ancient apricot was relatively close to the house, and now the tent is supported on this side of the courtyard "door", Ban's let the coral specially take the soft smoke Luo is really good, when you hold it in your hand, you don't feel it, after the branch is opened, it looks like a haze, soft as a thin haze, as if it is an apricot' The water cloud that fell from the flowers, the color of the azure after the rain and the light scarlet of the apricot "flower" fused together, surprisingly harmonious.

What is even more rare is that this tent is a cloud of smoke from the outside, but it is clear from the inside.

Zhuo Zhaojie went in and out, looked at it from far and near, and clapped his hands and said: "This soft smoke Luo is really good, in previous years, I used a blue yarn tent, and it is not always the same thing to see the apricot and peach flowers through the blue 'color', so I don't need to use it, and this soft smoke Luo's tent looks better." ”

Seeing that she was satisfied, Coral smiled and said, "Qi Niang likes it, the old lady must be even more happy, and the maid will go back and tell her that she may be able to get a reward." ”

"You don't have to wait for your grandmother." Zhuo Zhaojie was in a good mood, so he said, "Minghe went and took the pair of gourd pendants in the makeup box." ”

"Ahh The maid said casually, where can you be such a heavy reward as Qi Niang? When Coral heard this, he hurriedly excused himself, "Qi Niang can just reward the maid with a few pieces of dim sum and eat." ”

Zhuo Zhaojie pursed his lips and said: "It's gilded, it's not worth anything, it's just watching the 'fine' skillfully wear it and play with it." ”

Coral took another excuse before taking it, and said goodbye with a thousand thanks.

Here, Zhuo Zhaojie closed the courtyard 'door', turned around and looked at the place where the tent was located, although the outside was unclear inside, but in the end it was clear from the inside to the outside, and after thinking about it, he said: "Go and call Fang Cai's mother-in-law again, and move two screens from the library to block it." ”

Knowing what she meant, he suggested: "The maid thinks it's enough to move a small screen, just block the 'door' of the courtyard and see the tent." ”

"Now that the weather is hot, there are many shades under the trees, and if I am in it when something comes to tell you, you might as well come like this? This tent is light and soft, although it is not clear from the outside, but you can still see whether the silhouette of the person inside is standing or lying down, or blocking it well. Zhuo Zhaojie said.

In this way, two glass screens that are not afraid of rain were brought out, each covering one side, only the direction of the ancient apricot tree and the east courtyard wall was empty, and no one passed by in these two places unless they were deliberate, so naturally they did not have to be covered.

Zhuo Zhaojie was very satisfied with the tent and went in, stacked a few pillows on the Xiangfei couch, leaned on it - rolled over, looked up at the hazy apricot 'flower' cloud shadow above his head, and then listened to the bee butterflies busy but could only stop outside the tent, which was really relaxing.

"Boil a pot of black plum and drink!" Zhuo Zhaojie instructed, "Bring all the books on my case again...... With this tent, the outside is much more comfortable than the inside! ”

Zhuo Zhao Festival here under the apricot 'flower' tree is so cool, very happy.

In Qujiazhuang, Yin Yuan fluttered his wings and flew down again, and with a few efforts, he knocked a few apricot 'flowers' that were blooming in the courtyard into pieces.

Ning Shaobi on the tree spit out a petal of apricot 'flowers', and when he got up, the apricot 'flowers' and apricots that were originally on his brocade robe suddenly fluttered again - he stroked the folding fan with his hand, frowned and asked Su Bo under the tree: "No one has come to the You family yet?" ”

"Nope." Su Bo said helplessly, "I'm sorry little master, a certain family seems to have guessed wrong." ”

"Could it be that Zhuo Zhaocui happened to write a letter home, so he exposed that Yin Yuan was originally a falcon raised by the son of this world?" Ning Shaobi muttered to herself, and then denied it, "Impossible, that day. Ben Shizi also went to the lake on a whim, and it was also accidental to bump into the You family...... Zhuo Zhaocui hasn't returned to your home in the past few days, right? Can there be correspondence? ”

Su Bo was puzzled: "Yes, there is, but it was Zhuo Zhaocui who wrote back to Youjia, and then Youjia replied." ”

"When?" Ning Shaobi asked with a deep groan.

"Today." Su Bo looked at the sky and said, "Zhuo Zhaocui's little guy who delivered the letter is afraid that he left the You family...... Do you want someone to send someone to stop it? ”

Ning shook her head and said, "I don't need it now...... It's been a few days...... Why is the wanderer silent? Didn't they all say that You Lao Hanlin was an old-fashioned and square person, how could this kind of person be rescued by someone in his younger generation, and he wouldn't even send a housekeeper over? What's more, although You Erlang was stunned that day, he was always grateful......" he said dissatisfiedly, "This Shizi said that it was a trivial matter and there was no need to worry about it, could it be that this You Erlang stayed to the point where he really didn't care?" ”

Su Bo was also worried: "This ...... Probably not, right? ”

"Hard to say!" Ning Shaobi sighed, "Poor You Old Hanlin...... His second grandson is also too stupid, and he is not the eldest grandson...... Hmm, it is said that none of the descendants of the You family entered Cui Nanfeng's 'door'? Is it because everyone is like this You Erlang? I really don't know how You Lao Hanlin got the second-class perch in the first place! ”

“…… Although You Lao Hanlin is the first of the top two ranks, because he is not good at being an official, he became a leader when he was in Hanlin. Su Bo also sighed, "This You Erlang is really the grandson of You Lao Hanlin!" ”

Ning Shaobi pondered for a moment and sighed, "I knew he was so stupid...... What kind of good people were there on the lake at the beginning? I should have just knocked their boat over for fun. ”

The master and servant are the two by themselves - the elder Su Bo has passed away for many years, Ning Shaobi is deeply favored by her grandmother, the eldest princess Ji Yang, and the master and servant are used to acting recklessly in Chang'an, but they never thought that the reason why no one in the You family came to the 'door' to thank them was because You Ju and the others were afraid of being known by the elders and receiving family law...... And from You Ju to Zhuo Zhaojie, they all thought that Ning Shaobi was such an arrogant and noble prince, and he was so cold on the lake that day, and he might have annoyed him by coming to the 'door' to thank him again...... In this case, they also kept the matter under their control......
