It's spring again.

It has only been half a year since Shen Yao refused to allow her father to return home, and at first Elder Shen Chong came to her, saying that he owed her and wanted to compensate her.

But now she doesn't need to.

She remembers that the time when she missed her father the most was when she was sick in the countryside, and although her mother took care of her, she always scolded her, and always said that she was dragging an oil bottle and that she had hurt her.

Later, when she returned home, she found that although her father was very good to her, she had become estranged from him after all, and what happened later, she would rather she not return to Kyoto City from the beginning.

If you stay in that small village for the rest of your life, maybe you will have a good life.

Later, the second sister also came a few times, the first time was when she was pregnant to give her good news, and she happily killed a chicken for the second sister to make up for her body.

The second time is that she is about to give birth, I hope she can go back to accompany Shen Xian.

She agreed.

It's just that when Shen Xian came out of confinement, she left again.

The third time is when the child turns one year old and brings her to recognize her relatives.

Later, she didn't come much, it is said that the prince was worried that she would not be able to walk the mountain road well, and because the child was young and could not leave her mother.

However, she can often receive gifts from Shen Xian.

Now Shen Yao has a very fulfilling life, getting up in the morning to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden to cook, going to water and fertilize the crops planted at noon, coming back to cook again, and sleeping in the pavilion he built in the afternoon, or to get out of his mind, and then go to cook again, or make a little pickles that can be stored and keep them for later.

It may be boring, but it's fulfilling and fun.

It's just that one day when she went up the mountain to water the orange tree she planted, she ran into a scholar.

The scholar was dirty and muddy, his clothes were torn, and he was still holding a pile of books in his arms.

At this moment, she fell under her orange tree, so that she could not even water it.

She crouched down and tried to wake him up, but the man was breathing heavily, as if he were asleep.

Shen Yao was helpless and said, "Forget it, I still have to water the tree, let's move you away first." ”

As she spoke, she went down the hill and brought up the cart, and it took all her strength to drag the scholar down the mountain and then transfer him to the bed, so tired that she didn't have the strength to water the orange tree again.

She is still waiting to eat oranges next year, and she blames this person.

She touched her stomach, as if she was a little hungry, and remembered that she had made a lot of salted duck eggs last year and had not finished eating, so she went to boil a pot of white porridge and ate it with shiny salted duck eggs for a while.

She was making porridge in the kitchen, and the scholar on the bed suddenly moved his nose when he smelled the fragrance, and his stomach made a gurgling sound, and then opened his eyes.

As if still frightened, he sat up suddenly and found that his books had been thrown on the ground, and in a panic, he fell and knelt all the way and ran over to hold all the books in his arms, and then carefully looked at the room.

When Shen Yao came in with white porridge and salted duck eggs, this person happened to kneel at her feet.

Shen Yao: "... Childe, it's still early for the New Year, and I don't have a red envelope for you. ”

The scholar realized that something was wrong, and immediately stood up, his eyes shining as he looked at the white porridge and salted duck eggs in her hand and drooled.

"You want to eat?"

The scholar nodded.

Shen Yao brought the things to the table, and after serving the porridge, motioned for him to sit down and eat.

The scholar licked his lips and was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, but he bowed slightly to Shen Yao and said, "Little... Xiaosheng Zhou Zheng, a person from the south of the Yangtze River, came to Kyoto City to participate in the scientific expedition, and he was tired and tired of the girl! ”

Shen Yao was stunned and laughed dryly: "Zhou Zheng... Good name, it's good if you call me shameless. ”

Then holding the salted duck egg cut in half in his hand, Zhou Zheng immediately puzzled: "Shameless? Why is the girl called this name, I think the girl is very good-looking. ”

Shen Yao pursed her lips, touched the veil on her face, and said in a low voice, "You didn't see it again." ”

"I saw it, the girl's eyes were very beautiful, and when I fainted, I also saw the girl's appearance without a veil, very beautiful."

Shen Yao's eyes dodged: "Is Gongzi Zhou so flattering to anyone?" ”

Zhou Zheng was suddenly shocked, afraid that she would misunderstand, and hurriedly said: "No, no, no, you misunderstood!" If the girl doesn't want to listen, Xiaosheng won't say anything. ”

After finishing speaking, she was about to leave, and Shen Yao was puzzled: "I didn't tell you to leave." ”

"The girl can come to the rescue when Xiaosheng is in danger, Xiaosheng already owes you a favor, and I don't want to drag the girl down any more, what's more..." ”

Shen Yao couldn't help laughing: "Why don't you take a look, there is a third person around here?" ”

"Even if no one knows, Xiaosheng should respect the girl."

It turned out to be an elm head.

Shen Yao sneered, turned around and continued to eat, and then the moment Zhou Zheng walked out, he said: "It's getting dark soon, you can't get out of this forest, and besides, you said that you want to come to participate in the imperial examination, but the imperial examination has been closed five days ago, and it is useless for you to rush over now." ”

Suddenly, there was the sound of something falling behind him.

Shen Yao turned his head to look, and actually saw Zhou Zheng looking lost as if he was being ghosted, and the next second he seemed to be about to cry.

"Uh... Are you okay? ”

Zhou Zheng indignantly wiped a handful of tears that had not yet had time to fall, as if he had sorted out his emotions again in just a moment, squatted down and began to pick up books.

But he chattered and said: "When I came, my mother gave me half of her life savings, but I met a thief on the way, and I begged them for a long time to return the book to me, I thought I could make my mother proud, but I still missed it." ”

"Your money was robbed, so how did you come to Kyoto City from Jiangnan?"

Zhou Zheng looked at Shen Yao like a fool: "I came over at the time, I have legs." ”

“......”

No wonder I didn't catch up.
