Volume 1 Nandu: Prosperity in the Last Days Chapter 83 Out of the Water Lotus

Looking at this handsome but serious young man in front of her, Li Xiaojun couldn't help but feel a little depressed, she had met many people in her previous life who talked about their philosophy of life while saving runaway women, but she didn't expect that the first customer who came to this world to receive was also such a person. However, from his sincere tone and clear and transparent eyes, she could probably tell that he was from the bottom of his heart, unlike other men who were just dressed in a layer of sect master's clothing.

For the sake of being so handsome, she forgave him.

Li Xiaojun looked at him seriously, and saw that he was about thirty years old, about 1.7 meters tall, with a well-proportioned figure, a fair complexion, a high nose bridge, and a few short whiskers under his chin, which were obviously freshly repaired. Although he wore a moon-white robe that is standard for scholars, he did not have the rotten smell of nerds, but looked quite capable and full of masculinity. In particular, those clear and transparent eyes seem to be able to see through people's inner world, which makes people feel frightened unconsciously.

It's so handsome and MAN!

The first time he met this kind of heroic ancient beautiful man, Li Xiaojun's careful liver jumped non-stop, and he felt like he was in love. Last night, I was still thinking of where to find a way out, God sent her a handsome guy today, I really fell asleep and sent a pillow!

must take down the Gu Gongzi in front of him, even if he can't marry him in the end, he has no regrets if he can meet a handsome guy before he is disfigured.

Gu Jiang saw that Li Xiaojun didn't speak for a long time, just stared at him, and felt a little unhappy, so he took the initiative to find a topic and said, "The couplets of the eldest lady are so difficult to match!" I don't know where you learned about these couplets, and they almost stumped the talents of my Sanwu land. ”

Li Xiaojun smiled faintly, and kept warning himself in his heart that he must be tense, and he must not show his feet, and said crisply, "Isn't this still not stumped for you?" ”

A hint of smugness flashed on Gu Jiang's face, and then he regained his righteousness, and said proudly, "I just said that the couplet is just a small skill of carving insects, if the eldest lady tests me an eight-strand system, it will really stump me." ”

Li Xiaojun smiled helplessly and said, "The slave didn't know that Gu Gongzi was afraid of the eight-strand system, if he knew, he would definitely embarrass you." ”

Gu Jiang laughed, although he was admitted to Xiucai at the age of fourteen, but after participating in four township examinations, he failed to make the list, and each time it was worse than the other, and then he felt that he was really not that material, so he gave up, and so far he is just a Xiucai.

Fame is his biggest weakness, but he can also see it, and often laughs at himself about it, but Li Xiaojun dared to take this stalk when they met for the first time, which not only did not make him feel angry, but narrowed the distance between them.

After saying a few more words that were not painful, seeing that the situation was about to fall into an embarrassing situation, Li Xiaojun stopped going around in circles, and went straight to the point, "Since Gu Gongzi has made a couplet, the slave family will fulfill its promise, I don't know if Gu Gongzi wants to taste tea, listen to music, or ...... first."

Halfway through speaking, she suddenly remembered to be reserved, and hurriedly stopped.

Outcome...... Counterproductive!

She was so straightforward, Gu Jiang suddenly felt embarrassed, coughed lightly, and said with a straight face, "The eldest lady misunderstood, I came here this time to be entrusted by Quanzhou Zheng Sen and Yixing Qian Sun Aishi brothers, and I came to visit the eldest lady, and I have no other intentions." ”

He was determined to learn when he was a child, and he was very ashamed of Jiangnan Shizi's behavior of sleeping flowers and willows in the name of research, so although he came to Nanjing several times, he never set foot in the land of fireworks, and every time he rushed out to accompany his mother after finishing his errands. This time, he was recommended by Yang County's order in Kunshan to serve in the court, and he wanted to report directly to the military department, but his friend Guizhuang, who was traveling with him, said that he was going to visit Qian Qianyi, so he went with him.

When he arrived at Qianfu and visited Qian Qianyi, he was stopped by Qian Sunai and asked him to give the scholars in Jiangnan a long face. After the last fiasco, Zheng Sen and Qian Sunai were actively reflecting and re-recruiting talents, but unexpectedly discovered Liu Ru's conspiracy to be a ghost behind the surface, although they were very angry but helpless, they had to think of ways to avoid her ears and eyes, and at the same time conceal part of the truth, so as not to be rejected by some upright people.

Gu Jiang came to Meixianglou under such circumstances, and he still didn't know that it was their old sister-in-law who was sitting in front of them.

"I see." Li Xiaojun sighed, his heart was full of disappointment, and he said in his heart, you won't turn around and leave, then isn't the determination I finally made up just now going to be in vain?

The woman's mind is very complicated, she desperately didn't want to see anyone before, but as soon as she saw him, her heart beat faster, and she was ready to dedicate herself at any time, but she found that she was not his dish at all, and this sense of loss was stronger than committing herself to Yang Wencong and Tian Yang.

However, she quickly adjusted. In this society, women always have to rely on men, although it is not difficult to survive with her ability, but when she thinks that Ruan Dacheng and Tian Yang may attack her at any time, and the Qing army is coming again, she must give up her unrealistic reserve.

The person in front of him is young and handsome, and he won't be disgusted when he is with him, plus he has a meritorious reputation, ordinary people don't dare to bully. Looking at his outfit again, the conditions at home should not be bad, and he can temporarily avoid the limelight in his house, and wait for the Ming and Qing dynasties to pass before thinking about him.

Thinking of this, she cheered up and said generously, "However, since Gu Gongzi is here, why don't you take a break here, drink tea, listen to music, and relax." ”

Gu Jiang thought for a while, nodded and said, "I have heard the music of Meixianglou for a long time, and I will bother the eldest lady." ”

"Oh, good, good!" Li Xiaojun breathed a sigh of relief, led him to the piano room, sat down in front of the guzheng, plucked the strings gently, and the melodious sound of the piano slowly flowed out.

This song "Out of the Water Lotus" has been played by her since she was a guzheng in elementary school, and she is naturally familiar with it, and the tune of more than five minutes is completed in one go, and it couldn't be more perfect.

Gu Jiang was immersed in the clear tune for a long time, and it was not until the last trace of voice disappeared with the wind that he took a long breath and sighed, "The eldest lady's song "Out of the Water Lotus" is really extraordinary, much more clever than playing it under it. ”

"You can play too?" Li Xiaojun was stunned, and said no! She remembers that when she was a child, she heard the teacher say that this was a Hakka song, how could he be?

It seems that the traverser is not so easy to be, it has only been a few days, and the stuffing has been exposed twice.

Gu Jiang smiled rarely, and said, "This piece is an ancient song, and it is naturally learned in the thick tone, but the skills are not as good as the lady." ”

"Oh, I see!" Li Xiaojun smiled with difficulty, it seems that this time he can fool the past again.

Speaking of music, the two finally have a common topic, although Gu Jiang is a nerd, but in order to cultivate sentiment, readers in this era will learn some other hobbies, such as Yang Longyou loves painting in addition to reading, Ruan Dacheng is also an excellent screenwriter in addition to being admitted to the Jinshi.

Although Li Xiaojun does not have to participate in the scientific examination, she has learned to sing and dance since she was a child, painting, broadcasting and hosting, and is almost a pentathlon.

There is no other reason, there is a tiger mother at home, and it has to be like this.

The tunes that have been passed down for thousands of years will naturally not be set in stone, Gu Jiang raised several objections to Li Xiaojun's fingering, and Li Xiaojun drew the score while listening, corresponding to what he said.

Gu Jiang looked at the strange symbols on the paper, couldn't help but be stunned, and hesitated, "How can the eldest lady know this Western Lepu?" ”

Li Xiaojun was also stunned, and asked rhetorically, "Mr. Gu knows that this is Western Lepu?" ”

It's weird, how does he know about staves?

In fact, she is lonely and unheard, there were already many Western missionaries in China in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions were the most prosperous, and there were many Westerners.

Gu Jiang smiled and said, "I met a Western priest a few days ago, discussed with him, and accidentally learned about Western music scores, and immediately asked him for advice, but now I only understand a little." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Li Xiaojun nodded and took the initiative to confess, "Me too, it's all about the same, but I learned it before you, so I made a fool of myself...... Hey, hey, hey. ”

Gu Jiang's eyes widened, and he said happily, "Do you also know Mr. Yang Mano?" ”

"Sheep, horses, and mules?" Li Xiaojun glared, who is it in his heart? Then he smiled awkwardly, "Maybe I know." ”

Gu Jiang was a little speechless, and asked anxiously, "What does 'possible acquaintance' mean?" ”

Li Xiaojun was in a hurry and said, "I know a Western priest, but when he introduced himself, he said a long list of names, I didn't hear it clearly, and I didn't remember it, now I should be him when I hear you talk about it." ”
