"Oh? Yang Mingxiu, that old guy? ”

Miao Yiqing's eyes looked at Tao Jiang with a little more inquiry--

Who doesn't know that Yang Mingxiu, who was once the emperor's teacher, is more elegant and elegant than the wild crane, and he regards them as grass mustard on weekdays, and he never gets to know each other.

Such a stinky and hard-tempered old antique, how could he come out to help the Tao family this time?

Tao Jiang stood beside her and did not answer, and the breeze of Tianba blew her skirt with a rustling sound, like a bee butterfly fluttering in the spring color of the neighbor's house.

Her thoughts followed the gloomy gaze across the bustling grange, through the clouds and smoke, and fell on the verdant Yiyun Mountain.

Two hours ago, Tao Jiang led the maid to Yiyun Academy.

The academy is located on the top of Yiyun Mountain, shrouded in smoke and mist, far away from the bustling city.

While rubbing his sore knees, Citrus muttered:

"Where is this academy good! Far away and remote, we got out of the carriage and climbed the mountain for at least an hour, and then we will go! ”

Under the high gray walls and green tiles of Yiyun Academy, the sound of reading aloud has been heard--

Like drums beating in unison, the rhythm does not stop; It is also like exquisite music, which makes people linger.

This place has green mountains and green waters, and there are few beautiful people, and sure enough, the children of the family have to choose a paradise when they study.

She nodded her chin slightly, signaled to the orange to button the gold-lacquered beast-faced tin ring on the vermilion lacquer door, and a little scholar in a blue robe and plain shirt walked out after a while.

The scholar saw two women standing outside the door, one was delicate and lovely but frowned and pouted, and the other was delicate and luxurious, smiling like a goddess of the Nine Heavens.

The scholar's ears were slightly red, and he quickly withdrew his slightly sluggish eyes, made a bow respectfully, and said in a deep voice:

"I don't know if the two ladies come to the academy in the morning, what do you ask?"

After speaking, he still didn't dare to raise his head, for fear of panicking after taking a second look, and it seemed that he was too unruly.

Citrus orange had already gotten up early in the morning, and had climbed the mountain for a long time, but he was already impatient at this time, and he watched the little scholar chewing on something with a red face "ask for advice", and even more anger poured out from the soles of his sore feet:

"My young lady is the young lady of the pharmacy Tao family's room, and she is here to find your dean!"

The scholar's waist bent lower:

"My husband's whereabouts are uncertain, if the young lady is not invited in advance, I am afraid that it will be ......"

Citrus Shi wanted to continue to make trouble, but was stopped by Tao Jiang's look, she looked at the open courtyard of the academy through the crack in the door, and said in a soft voice:

"Don't embarrass the boy. Just ask the boy to ask your husband, do you still read the peach blossom brew of the medicine merchant Tao's family? ”

Reach out and don't hit the smiley person. If I didn't bring a welcome gift, how could I visit so easily?

Only then did the scholar raise his head, and at a glance he saw the three white porcelain vases depicting peach blossoms in his hands, and immediately nodded, turned around and ran towards the academy.

Tao Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and exhaled softly on the top of the mountain covered by the white clouds.

As everyone knows, the former emperor Yang Mingxiu has three good things in life - wine, books, and paintings.

And wine, firmly in front of calligraphy and painting.

It is said that when the crown prince inherited the unification and became the new emperor, Yang Mingxiu complained that he wanted to return to his hometown with his success.

The new emperor was reluctant to give up the deep love between master and apprentice, and hoarded more than 3,000 jars of fine wine collected from all over the Qi country in the cellar of the palace, which kept Yang Mingxiu for four more years.

And the only relationship between Yang Mingxiu and the Tao family is also because of wine.

His father, Tao Changqing, once traveled to Dongyi and brought back three bottles of local peach blossom brewing. This peach blossom brew is not worth much money in Dongyi, but because of difficult transportation and lack of trade, it has become a rare object in Qi country.

I don't know where Yang Mingxiu got the news, knowing that the Tao family hid three bottles of peach blossom brew, so he sent a scholar with silver to buy it at a high price.

But what kind of family is the Tao family, how rare is it in the eyes of the reader to break the silver taels, and immediately expelled the little scholar in a hurry.

Yang Mingxiu knew that he was rude, and a few days later, he personally visited the Tao Mansion and stretched out his hand to hand out a "Lady Hairpin Flower Picture" by Zhou Tang, a former hand-painter of the country.

Although Tao Changqing was born in the door of a merchant, he also read poetry and books, and his family industry also has a pawnshop.

That day, his father and Yang Mingxiu spent an afternoon drinking paintings and tea in the study, and it was not until the golden yellow of the sunset sprinkled the west study through the window lattice that Yang Mingxiu walked out.

The original body hid behind the pillars of the cloister, looked at Yang Mingxiu with a regretful face, his steps were slow, and he took away the "Lady Hairpin Flower Picture" that he didn't send out in the wide sleeved robe.

As for what a businessman and an emperor talked about in the study, the original body is unknown.

Tao Jiang was thinking about it, Yang Mingxiu, who was dressed in a wide aqua robe, walked out quickly, Xu was a little anxious, the lacquered sarong crown on his head was still a little crooked, and the leather sand on his feet had not even had time to pull it up.

And the red cloud above his head is faintly golden, which is scorching to the eyes - after all, it is normal for people who have mixed under the roots of the imperial city to have a little golden light and dragon energy.

Tao Jiang secretly wiped the halazi on his lower lip, and his throat tightened.

Before Yang Mingxiu had one foot crossed the mottled threshold of the academy, his voice came out from afar:

"Little girl of the Tao family, did you bring peach blossom brewing?"

Yang Mingxiu was still followed by the scholar who had just answered, and when he saw that his husband had lost his old Dao bone fairy style, he was no different from a drunk who was addicted to alcohol on the street, and he couldn't help but sigh and sigh.

Tao Jiang nodded to Citrus Shi, and Citrus Shi took two steps forward and handed over the three white porcelain vases with peach blossoms and branches in Yang Mingxiu's hands.

Yang Mingxiu didn't have time to ask more, he immediately pulled out one of the corks, sniffed deeply in his nose a few times, and then said:

"That's what it tastes like! More than 10 years ago, I traveled to Dongyi and drank this wine in a village and town called Taohuazhuang. ”

After speaking, he quickly stuffed the cork, for fear of overflowing a little more wine.

Yang Mingxiu turned around and handed the three bottles of peach blossom brew to the scholar behind him, and threw him a terrifying look of "If you miss, you will die", then straightened the cage crown on his head, squatted down and pulled out his heels, and said slowly:

"The little girl of the Tao family is so gracious, she must be asking for something, right?"

Smart people speak, pay attention to a straight line.

Tao Jiang didn't turn around, and blessed his body:

"If I'm not mistaken, today should be the Academy's monthly Human Day Festival, right?"

The original brain is like a compiled Xiangxi County Chronicle, and any information Tao Jiang can trust at his fingertips.

Yang Mingxiu was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know what Tao Jiang wanted, so he could only respond vaguely first.

The seventh day of each month is the day festival of Yiyun Academy, which is taken from the meaning of "people's day inscription poems are sent to the grass hall, and the old people miss their hometown".

On this day, all the teachers and students of the college were boating on the lake under the leadership of Dean Yang Mingxiu, or inscribed poems against each other, or sang on the piano, which was extremely elegant for literati.

And every day, it is best to follow Yiyun's ship closely behind the elegant Xiangxi Thirteen Young Boats.

The thirteen people led by the second ancestor Cheng Dashan only hope that a certain poem or a certain pair of their own will enter the eyes of Dean Yang and take them under the door exceptionally, which is also the glory of the ancestors.

This kind of thing is known to everyone in Xiangxi County, how can Tao Jiang not hear of it.

So, she handed the crabs that had been cooked in the bamboo basket to Yang Mingxiu with the ginger vinegar sauce, and her eyes were full of cunning:

"My request is very simple, if Mr. today is chanting poetry on the lake, just use my crab as the theme."
