Under the wisteria trellisa by the fish pond in the southeast corner of Qingran Pavilion, Jiang Shu wore a water-blue jacket and a bright yellow pleated long skirt, and leaned on the chaise longue with Erlang's legs crossed to read a medical book. On the stone table next to it were a few plates of snacks and a good pot of tea.

Last night the old lady said that how to punish her would be discussed today, and in order to keep the news with her, she got up early, had breakfast, and waited here.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for nearly an hour, the sun was a little southward, and there was no movement.

However, Jiang Shu was not in a hurry about this, turned over slightly, put the medical book in his hand on the stone table beside him, and squinted his eyes comfortably.

It was best that the old lady could forget about it, and then she would not have to be punished.

However, as soon as this beautiful idea was born, it was brutally shattered by a shallow and crisp and pleasant voice: "Miss, Miss, Sister Portugal is here......"

Jiang Shu reluctantly opened his eyes and looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see that on the flower path not far to the west, Ping Qian and Portuguese rain were walking side by side.

She sat up with her arms crossed, watched the two people approach, turned her head to Portugal who was standing on the right and asked, "Sister Portugal, has grandmother already thought about how to punish me?" ”

"No," Lu Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "It's His Royal Highness King Fu and His Royal Highness King Rui who have come down, and in the Shende Hall in the front yard, the old lady asked the slave maid to invite the fourth lady to come over." ”

"Zhu Changxun and Zhu Changhao?" Jiang Shu pursed his lips and thought for a while, "What are they doing here?" ”

Lu Yu smiled slightly and said: "The slave and maid are waiting outside, I don't know too much, it seems that His Royal Highness King Fu got a rare thing and specially came to give it to the fourth young lady, and His Royal Highness King Rui came with him." ”

"Rare?" Jiang Shu repeated in a low voice, slowly stood up, raised his feet and walked outside, "Then let's go over and take a look." ”

"Yes." Ping Qian and Lu Yu agreed in unison, turned around and followed her steps.

All the way to the door of the lobby of Shende Hall, the rain and the screen automatically retreated on the side of the door, and Jiang Shu walked in slowly.

At this time, Zhu Changxun and Zhu Changhao were sitting on the left and right main seats in the middle of the lobby drinking tea. Since the male dependents in the house were not at home, the old lady and the four ladies accompanied them.

Jiang Shu walked to a suitable position, stopped slightly, and thought that the old lady was watching from the side, and he couldn't be rude, so he bent down to the two people on the main seat, and said politely: "Jiang Shu has seen the prince, and he has seen His Royal Highness King Rui." ”

"No need to be polite, get up." Zhu Changxun put the tea cup in his hand on the table next to him and waved his hand gently.

Seeing her straighten up, he smiled faintly and said, "This king came here this time because he wanted to give you something." ”

"What's that?" Jiang Shu asked subconsciously.

But as soon as I exited, I immediately found that I was speechless, and in front of so many people, I shouldn't ask more, but I should bow my head and thank you.

Zhu Changxun didn't mind, stood up slowly, uncovered the red silk on a one-foot-tall thing on the table next to him, and raised his hand to remove the transparent cover that was fastened outside.

Then he turned his head to look at Jiang Shu, pointed to a pagoda-shaped yellow cancan item inside, and said softly: "This thing is called a self-striking bell, and it was bought by a foreigner named Matteo Ricci for a thousand taels of gold a few days ago. It is a tool for keeping time, and this king has tried, and it is much more accurate than an hourglass or a sundial. You see, like it or not? ”
