Chapter 55: Reluctantly Suspend School
The snow is getting heavier.
Looking out of the car window, the sky and the earth were white, and the only sound of the carriage "creaking" on the snow was silent.
Fuhua asked, "Do you know why I know about this?"
I shook my head. He smiled bitterly and said, "The **** saw you hiding under the corridor in the corner of the school, I was thinking if you had something on your mind, and I was just about to go over to sit with you, and I happened to see Luo Fuzi going, so I had to hear your conversation behind the rockery...... To tell you the truth, I didn't know how sad I felt when I heard those words......"
I didn't know how to respond to him, so I could only smile bitterly.
Fuhua's slender and clean fingers twisted the tassel on the jade pendant, and with a smile on his face, he continued:
"I listened to the conversation between you and the master that day, and I realized how bad I was compared to Jiang Ying in your heart, thinking of our love since childhood, I originally thought that I could go on with you for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect you to even have this thought, so I was a little disheartened for a long time......
I looked at Fuhua's lost eyebrows, my brain was hot, and I almost wanted to take him into my arms to appease him, and I endured this thought a few times.
Fortunately, Fuhua was only gloomy for a moment, and then continued to tell the story slowly, but it could be seen that the expression on his face gradually became solemn......
Five years after Jiang Ying left the capital with her father, I was close to the age of Lu, although I had not fully grown up, but I had already grown from a yellow-haired girl to a big girl.
When I was fifteen, at the end of spring, the city was full of fluffs.
Since I was a child, whenever I came into contact with these flying flotsam, I would be itchy and covered with red spots, so at this time of year, even if I was reluctant, I could only shrink into the room and be a quiet beautiful woman.
Because of the increase in age, I don't come and go with Fuhua and Huaiqing as often as I was a child, and Fuhua can no longer often come to the backyard of Chifu to look for me, and when I come again, I can only go to the front hall in the name of visiting my father, but because of my status as a prince, it is not convenient for the courtiers in power to come and go too closely, so as long as I don't go to the school anymore, we will hardly have the opportunity to meet again. But then again, those unruly princesses have only been in school for less than a year and no longer go, and I am the only woman in the whole class who is still sticking to it, and my father has advised me several times to ask a private gentleman to teach at home, but I can't hear it at all, but seeing that Ji Lu is about to leave, I have to suspend my studies.
Luo Fuzi finally got older, Shen Zhen relapsed, and half a month after I took a leave of absence, I fell in the school, but fortunately, the king sent a doctor to diagnose and treat, although he picked up a life, but if he wanted to teach, it was impossible, and he had to resign and recuperate at home. Even in the season when the city is full of fluffs, I have been covered with a veil, a hood, a cloak and a full armament to see this interesting old man a few times, and I can't help but sigh a little when I see that he can only linger on the sickbed now, and no longer has the spirit of the past.
The **** went to visit the master again, sat on the rocking chair with him for a while, basked in the sun, chatted about gossip, and saw that the master was tired of thinking, so he got up and went home. Because the master allowed me to enter his study, and said that as long as I fancied, I could take whatever I liked, so I would always take some ancient books, precious manuscripts of the former Confucian, Yishui inkstone treasured by the master, etc., in the spirit of "thieves do not go empty", several times, the treasures of the master's study were almost looted by me.
After the **** and the little guy worked together to help the master back to the bedroom, the master smacked his lips and said: "I suddenly remembered today, I remember that it seems to be in the north corner of the study, there is a black ground carved peony in the ground bottle, there are a few painting scrolls in the bottle, it is an ancient painting that I finally got a few years ago, you go and look for it, see which one you like and take it away......"
I covered the thin quilt for the master, and said with a sly smile: "Don't you say that I will also go to the study for a walk."
The master closed his eyes with a smile, waved his hand to signal that he was going to sleep, I got up and wanted to go to the study, and after walking a few steps, I suddenly thought of something, so I stopped and turned to the master and asked, "During this time, Jiang Ying really hasn't sent any more letters?"
Because of my correspondence with Jiang Ying over the years, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I always asked Jiang Ying to send it to Luo Fuzi's mansion first, and the master either secretly took it to me in the school, or I sent a confidant to pick it up, and one letter per month never stopped. But for some reason, I haven't heard from me for nearly three months, and when I send an inquiry, there is no news of me like a stone sinking into the sea.
The master slowly opened his eyes and looked at me, staring at me for a long time without showing emotion, and finally sighed and shook his head, then closed his eyes again and rolled over and fell asleep.
I saw that there was no result, so I could only go to the study to look for paintings in frustration.
But fortunately, I soon found a jar with a few painting scrolls, I opened them one by one, and was pleasantly surprised to find that each one is a treasure, all of which are rare paintings for my favorite painters, so I happily took it away, and walked out of the study with a celadon fish playing lotus leaf on the desk, and then happily went out of the house with a full harvest.
