Day 2, morning class.

Qiong also looked down and read the scriptures by herself, Sheng Xuanren silently turned her head to stare at her, her eyelids were swollen like bubbles spit out by a small fish, her expression was gloomy, she obviously noticed that she was looking at her, but she was unwilling to raise her face.

The two of them survived the half-day class, and when they finished school, Sheng Xuan wanted to take the opportunity to stop Qiong Yi, but after the master finished saying the word "class", he suddenly disappeared.

He chased out, and outside the house were the disciples who came out of the adjacent classroom, and there was no familiar light green figure in the chaotic vision, thinking that with the speed at which she moved, as long as she wanted to leave, no one could catch up.

Curious gossip classmates came over beside him: "Hey, Master Sheng, have you lost your temper with Miss Lu?" ”

"It's been a long time since I've seen you go apart."

"What's wrong?"

Sheng Xuan's ears buzzed, and he left a sentence and walked away: "Don't be nosy." ”

"Ah, dumped?"

"Let's go! Beware of being beaten! ”

Sheng Xuanyan rubbed his eyebrows, he suddenly hoped that Su Ye was still listening to his studies in the academy, and he could talk to him and drink some wine to relieve his boredom, or bring his tail with him when he came this year, and with it with him, he would not be depressed to this extent.

After thinking about it, he finally went to find Yan Tingshen, and was pulled by him to a small wine stall where people came and went, full of bowls of wine.

"Did Joan really say that?"

"Hmm."

"She's still hiding from you today?"

“… Well. ”

"Didn't you say the reason for separating from you?"

"No ......"

“…… Okay, Xuan, don't be too sad. Yan Tingshen patted him on the shoulder twice, so strong that he almost made Sheng Xuan resentful and fell into the wine bowl, "Actually, I am also responsible for this matter, when she used the Heartless Gu to test you, I knew about it, but I helped her hide it from you." After a sigh, he added, "I found that Joan also despised herself a little too much, and she probably just wanted to ask for peace of mind from you." ”

"I don't blame her for lying to me, but why would she despise herself?" Sheng Xuan couldn't understand: "She is talented and intelligent, and in terms of cultivation, the cultivation time is shorter than any of us, and her practice is better, doesn't she know this?" ”

Yan Tingshen smiled bitterly: "Xuan resentment, she was an abandoned son in the past, how many days have she been looked down upon by others, and the clay stove rope bed has passed?" You grew up respected, and everyone under the door has to be honored as a young master when they see you, she is different. ”

Sheng Xuan closed his eyes: "According to what you said, it's all my fault?" ”

"You didn't do anything wrong, it's her blessing that she can't stand it, since the two of you have separated, it's better to break it off."

"Brother Yan!"

"Oops, just kidding." Yan Ting took a deep sip of wine, smiled and shook his head: "I said she is not good, you are still unwilling?" Joan also avoided you, obviously wanting a calm time, she only said that she wanted to separate, and she didn't say that she would break off the relationship, I'm afraid she is still entangled in herself. In other words, your idea of proposing marriage is indeed hasty enough, and I can't complain that she will refuse. ”

“…… So what do I do? ”

Yan Ting smiled deeply: "I don't have much experience in coaxing the girl's family, but it's a pity that the person who understands the woman's mind best is not there, so you have to rely on yourself." ”

Sheng Xuan was silent.

Yan Tingshen reminded him: "If you can run a monk, you can't run the temple." No matter how she avoids you, it's impossible not to come to class, right? ”

"You should ask her from the bottom of her heart, is she afraid of the name of Bai Yu Ghost Mountain, or is it because of something else? Or maybe she just hasn't figured it out yet? ”

"It's good to include your sweetheart in the future, but Joan is also an assertive girl."

Sheng Xuan complained for a long time: "I understand, thank you Brother Yan for enlightening ......" After that, he lowered his head and reflected: I should give her some time, instead of saying that I proposed marriage yesterday and asked for an answer at night.

"It's not that sad, is it? Come, drink. Yan Tingshen filled a bowl for him again, "The apricot blossom wine brewed in early spring tastes really mellow, Xiao Er, let's serve some more food!" ”

"Come on!"

……

Joan also sat by the river and rubbed the corners of her eyes, she was sad all night last night, and when she got up in the morning, she found that her eyes were crying a little.

The words were said by her own mouth, and the people were pushed away by her own hands, but no matter how she thought about it, she would be sad.

"It's not time to talk about marriage, I don't want to think about him first." Qiong also said to herself, snorted and walked silently into the distance, and when she reached the area where there were few people, she called out the string song, and the sword flew up, and went to the school opened by Master Chu to meet Wei Xinxin.

Today, Master Chu has no classes in Qingfeng Academy, so he teaches students to write in the private school, and when Qiong Yi comes, it happens to be in his spare time, and the boys of all sizes outside the school are running in one place, only Wei Xinxin, a female doll, is shrunk in the corner, pinching a branch in her hand, as if she is writing something.

"Sister Lu!" Wei Xinxin saw Qiong Yi and hurriedly ran to her, Qiong Yi secretly handed a candy in her hand to her mouth, and whispered: "I'll bring one, don't be discovered by others." ”

"Hmm!" With a sweet mouth, Wei Xinxin nodded with a smile, and asked her again: "Sister Lu, did you go back and ask Brother Xiaoyu for me?" Why didn't he want to come to school? Grandpa Master is a good person, and he is definitely willing to have one more student. ”

After returning to the town from Sujiafu, Qiong Yi came to visit Wei Xinxin several times, she thought that the orphan named Xiaoyu would come to the school with Xiaoxin to read and write, but he didn't.

She went to ask the reason, and the boy, who was as thin as a hemp rope, stubbornly lowered his head, and could not persuade her.

"I don't study! I'm going to take care of my grandma! If I go, Grandma's legs are not good, and she won't be able to stand up if she falls! ”

Joan had no choice but to occasionally bring pen and ink to teach him to read.

"Xiaoyu, he expects you to learn more, so that you can go back and teach him." Qiong also took the branch from Wei Xinxin's hand and moved away from the topic: "What have you learned today, let me see how you write?" ”

"You scribble, don't teach my students badly."

The hoarse and old voice sounded from the side of the house, Qiong also hurriedly looked, Master Chu shook his head and sighed, and asked with a smile: "Skipping class and coming to me again?" ”

"Didn't skip class. I really didn't skip class this time. Qiong was also demolished by the master and muttered in a low voice, "Just stop by to see Xiao Xin." ”

"That's right."

Wei Xinxin was waved and shouted by the playful students, Qiong Yi and Chu Fuzi chatted a few words of homework, talked about the recent quiz, and after chatting for a long time, she looked at the kind old man beside her, and suddenly asked: "Master, I have confusion other than knowledge, can I ask you?" ”

"What confusion?"

"I ......" Qiong Yi couldn't speak, not wanting Master Chu to say first: "Did you have a dispute with Xiao Gongzi Sheng?" ”

"How do you know ......"

Chu Fuzi smiled and sighed: "Then let's talk about it, what is the dispute?" ”

Even the master knows about me and Sheng Jun, and I'm afraid there are few people in the school who don't know about it. Qiong Yi tugged at the corners of his mouth and replied: "Sheng Jun, he probably thinks that I have a strong affection for him and should be married, but I am not ready at all." He wants to take me to Luoyao, maybe he thinks it's right for me to go back with him, I don't want to ...... like that."

"Sheng Xiaogongzi has you in his heart, so he wants to make an appointment with the Lu family in the face of everyone's criticism." Master Chu stroked his white beard, "If he doesn't have the responsibility and courage, he won't think about proposing marriage early and ending the rumors in the market." ”

Seeing that Qiong Yizheng was undecided, Master Chu raised his hands: "The question you asked is really lifting the old man." The old man has lived most of his life, has not married a wife, has no children under his knees, and can't mention much about his young affection. ”

Qiong Yi's bulging upper eyelids turned into a mound of hair, "You are so good, how can you ......?"

"It's a pity to say that when I was your age, I also had a girl I liked, but I was bent on gaining fame at that time and chose to leave." The master closed his eyes lightly, "I came to Yichuan far away from my homeland, and I was admitted to the governor's mansion after studying hard for three years, but when I returned home, she was already married. ”

"Can I blame her? I chose to leave, and I can't blame anyone but myself. ”

"Later, I thought, if I hadn't chosen to leave, but had just studied in that village and opened a small private school, would it be much more stable and steady than if I had wandered for half my life?"

"But there is no turning back, child."

"Master Chu......"

"Although I have no wife and no children, but the garden is full of peaches and plums, if you really talk about remorse, it can't be counted." The old man even smiled lightly between his wrinkles: "But looking back, there will always be some regrets, who doesn't have a few regrets in their life, light or shallow." ”

"The old man knows that you are a good boy with ambitions in your heart, Sheng Xiaogongzi has few words and is quiet, but I can also see that he is a person with ambitions. If you can't talk about it, then you can solve the problem, and there will be a way to solve everything. You are still young, and in the future, when you encounter great tribulations, you will also have to be with your spouse. ”

"What are you...... Persuade me to take the initiative to reconcile with him? ”

"Is that to let the old man say this to him again?"

"No, no, no." Joan also waved her hand: "How dare you bother." She lowered her head and said softly, "I...... Think again. ”

"Well, this kind of thing should be thought through." Chu Fuzi called out to the students who were playing in the open space: "The hour has come, go back to the school room for class." ”

The students replied, "Yes, sir!" Then one by one he ran into the house, lest he would be left behind.

Qiong Yi bowed: "I won't bother you." ”

Master Chu waved his hand, which was regarded as a farewell, and then walked into the house, and soon there was a loud and immature sound of reading in unison from the room, followed by the old man's recitation, babbling and full of vitality.

Joan listened for a moment, then summoned the String Song Edgeworth to leave.

When Qiong also saw Sheng Xuan's resentment again, he was leaning against the beam in front of his room, holding a small bag wrapped in oiled paper in his hand, and he didn't know what was inside.

Almost subconsciously looked away, but he had already seen her not far away under the eaves, and her black hair was raised behind him with the movement of the step: "Qiong Yi, don't go!" ”

Qiong didn't plan to hide anymore, but Sheng Xuan was afraid that she would run away again, and when she got closer, she was visibly at a loss: "Can you, don't avoid me like this?" ”

“…… I don't want to be separated from you. He said, "Don't be so cruel to me...... Whatever you want to say to me, I'll listen to it this time. ”

"I ......" Sheng Xuanyan didn't finish the rest of the sentence before she was picked up by Qiong Yi, and she said, "I'm sorry." ”
