Lu Xiao remembered his intentions at this time, sat back and said, "I came for you yesterday." I admire that you can ignore your life and death for the sake of your lover, but you have to tell me in advance if you have to write something for me to prove next time. I have been entrusted by your stepfather to protect you, and if you die suddenly, I will have to give him an account. ”

Although Chen Nian listened to his words, he had to admit that he was reasonable, and said: "This time I was wrong, I will change it next time." ”

Lu Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and involuntarily played with the words he had just learned, and said: "It's really teachable, and knowing mistakes can improve a lot!" ”

Chen Nian couldn't help but have a headache when he heard his words, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Speak well!" ”

Lu Xiao was a little proud, and said, "You don't understand either?" Let me tell you, Shunping specially invited an old gentleman to me, who was much more knowledgeable than the previous servant, and I couldn't understand eight out of ten sentences. ”

It turned out that Lu Xiao lived in this house and had nothing to do, and he had been learning to speak Chinese with the little guy who was waiting around him, since yesterday Shunping saw him and Chaoyangzi's scolding war, he felt that this person was a talent that could be created, and immediately replaced him with an old gentleman, who specialized in explaining the broad and profound Sinology, which not only pleased Lu Xiao, but also took advantage of his efforts, so as not to cause trouble.

Chen Nian couldn't help but stroke his forehead, and the secret path Shunping was really a talent. The old gentleman is much stronger than the little guy, Lu Xiao didn't even go to the koi pond today, and followed the old gentleman to learn idioms and allusions for a full day, and was trying to find a place to pour down. Chen Nian saw his eager appearance, and was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped him before he could speak, "Stop!" She didn't ask much questions in her stomach, but her brain was flexible, she thought about it for a while, and said, "Lu Xiao, the things you learned are useless, I'll teach you a useful one, right?" ”

Lu Xiao was really fooled and asked, "What is useful?" ”

Chen Nian coaxed him: "Do you know why you don't speak Chinese well? That's because your tongue can't bend, I have a mantra here, you go back and memorize it, and you can speak Chinese well. ”

"What's the mantra?" Lu Xiao asked again.

Chen Nian didn't care about the ointment on his face for a while, cleared his throat, and read quickly: "Cowherd loves Liu Niang, Liu Niang misses Cowherd, Cowherd loves Liu Niang, Liu Niang misses Cowherd, Lang Lover comes to Niang Niang, Nian Niang Niang, Nian Niang, Nian Lang, Niang Lang, I can't get around, I'm busy!" ”

She was articulate, her voice was crisp, and she crackled and memorized a tongue twister, very neatly, and then asked Lu Xiao, "Did you hear clearly?" Let's try it. ”

Lu Xiao was already dumbfounded when he heard it, and he opened his mouth to try to read it again, but his tongue was knotted before he finished the first sentence. Chen Nian Zhengse said: "I'll write it down for you, you go back and ask the old gentleman to teach you to read, as long as you are familiar with this, you don't have to learn anything." ”

The maid had already been sent away by Chen Nian, so she took pen and ink herself, wrote down the tongue twister and handed it to Lu Xiao, and solemnly instructed: "Go back and read it carefully!" You have learned Chinese these days, and you should know that we Xia people have a saying, that is, hard work pays off, as long as you work hard, there is nothing that you can't learn! ”

Lu Xiao really had to go out with the piece of paper, and when he went out with his front foot, Chen Nian couldn't help but laugh and fell on the bookcase, but he forgot the ointment on his face, and rubbed it everywhere for a while, so he had to call the maid to come in and help her clean it up.

In the next few days, Lu Xiao really didn't bother her again. However, the days of the New Year are not easy. Chaoyangzi came every day, staring at her to go to the sun at three o'clock in the afternoon to exercise the exercises, but he sat in the shade of the tree and instructed her on the method of exercising the exercises. This method of luck is different every time, and the order in which the true qi travels in the meridians is also completely different, so she sits until the sun is in the west, and Chaoyangzi will come forward and slap her on a certain acupoint on her back, forcing her to spit out some poisonous blood, and the day's healing will be completed.

Qingzhou is located in the north of the Yangtze River, the climate is hot and dry in summer, the sun is very scorching, so every day for an hour, Chennian's skin is red and itchy first, and then it begins to molt, and then a few days later, although it is not red and painful, the complexion is getting darker and darker. Even though she used to run around with Ye Xiaoqi, Chen Nian's complexion has always been extremely fair, and now looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't help pounding the table in annoyance, and turned around and asked Feng Junyang: "Did you say that the black old man deliberately wanted to tan me as black as him?" Otherwise, why do you have to sit facing the sun? ”

Feng Junyang knew that a girl of her age loved beauty the most, so he smiled and said, "Where is it dark?" It's that the mirror is a little darker, and when I turn around, I'll ask someone to find a good mirror. ”

He opens his eyes like this and speaks nonsense, but there are those who do not open their eyes. Yun Sheng was locked up by Feng Jun Yang for many days, and as soon as he was released, he ran to look for him, and happened to meet Chen Nian, Yun Sheng was stunned at first glance and didn't recognize who was coming, and he looked at it twice more before he recognized her, and couldn't help but be startled, and shouted loudly: "Oops! Sister Xie, what's wrong with you? Why is his face as black as the bottom of a pot? ”

Chen Nian's face suddenly stiffened, Yun Sheng looked at her like this, and suddenly felt that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly added: "...... It's not so dark, like the bottom of a copper pot, not like the bottom of an iron pot! ”

It's better not to say this, Chen Nian's pretty face couldn't help but get darker, turned around and glared at Feng Junyang hatefully, turned around and slammed the door out of the house. Yun Sheng hurriedly asked Feng Junyang carefully, "Cousin, is Sister Xie angry with me?" ”

Feng Junyang was also helpless to Yun Sheng, looked at her and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Yun Sheng pursed his lips slightly, and said, "Then I'll go and apologize to her in a while, I didn't mean to, she is really a lot darker!" You don't allow me to go out of the courtyard these days, how do I know what's going on with you? When she said the back, her words couldn't help but bring some grievances, "I knew that you were going to lock me up like this, so I wouldn't have come to Qingzhou to look for you!" ”

Feng Junyang sighed unconsciously and said: "Yun Sheng, the current situation in Qingzhou is still unstable, there are many crises everywhere, and in the past half a month alone, there have been several groups of assassins here. I was busy with affairs a few days ago, and I have been healing, so I really can't take care of you. For your safety, I had to ask someone to seal your yard first. ”

Yun Sheng had heard about the assassins, and just two days ago, an assassin had accidentally broken into her courtyard and killed and injured several maids beside her, if Zheng Lun hadn't arrived in time with someone, she was afraid that she would have been injured by the assassin. When Feng Junyang mentioned this, Yun Sheng had nothing to say, and pouted and said, "I'm also bored in the yard alone, like a prison." The weather outside is so good, if you are in Taixing, it is a good time to go boating on the river. ”

Feng Junyang smiled when he heard this, and said, "Then who asked you to come to Qingzhou?" There's no river to call you to play. However, your twelfth brother is coming soon, and when he comes, you can ask him to accompany you to hunt in the mountains. ”

Yun Sheng was naturally happy when he heard this, and asked a few more words when He Ze would come, and whether he would bring Xian'er over with him, until Shunping came in from outside, and stood there with his hands down, as if he had something to report to Feng Junyang, so he reluctantly left.

Shunping saw Yun Sheng coming out of the courtyard, so he took out a letter sealed with fire paint from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to Feng Junyang with both hands, and said: "Lord Shizi, the lord of Shengdu has replied." ”
