Chapter 64: Spontaneous
The two were talking, and the dishes arranged by the shopkeeper were put up one after another, and the two of them moved their chopsticks, while eating slowly, Tao Yao suddenly opened his mouth as if he remembered something: "Next ten days, it is the full moon of the second son of Mr. Chen's family, do you have to go over to eat the banquet?" ”
When Chu Ping heard this, his face was embarrassed, he thought about it again and again, and finally resigned: "To tell you the truth, I used to go to our family's almshouse every month to teach the orphans there to read. If I don't go, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the children. In addition, Mr. Chen's full moon wine did not give invitations to the students in the library, and I was too abrupt to rush over. ”
This is just one of them, but Chu Ping felt in his heart that the Shao Brothers and others he saw in the Chen family last time really made him dislike. I don't really want to see Shaw Brothers and the others again, and such a banquet, but a group of gentlemen eat and brag, which is very boring, and Chu Ping originally didn't like to join in such a lively scene. If it is said that it is for Taoyao, it will definitely be the foreign man in one place and the female relatives in one place, and it is not good to meet in private at that time, and it is inevitable that people will bump into another incident.
Seeing Chu Ping's resignation, Tao Yao was originally a little displeased, after all, he invited him. But after listening to his reason again, Tao Yao couldn't help but smile at the corner of her lips, going to the children of the nursing home to read is indeed much better than eating a banquet.
Tao Yao was even a little moved, and wanted to follow him to take a look, but unfortunately he had already responded in front of Tao Yu, and he was afraid that he would regret it again, so he could only say: "Okay, it's not in the way." ”
Chu Ping saw Tao Yao's expression as usual, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
While the two of them were talking, Chu Ping hastily had lunch, and he had to go back to the library after the morning, and he came out to eat at noon, and it was time-consuming to go back and forth, and besides, the old Mr. Qi who taught the classics and history books was so difficult to speak, and he had to go to his younger brother to take leave, if he was late again, I was afraid that it would be even worse.
got up early to say goodbye to Tao Yao, Tao Yao remembered that he was now "in trouble", and he was not embarrassed by him, so he got up and planned to send him out. It's just that Tao Yao himself has always followed the health regimen of "not having a quick appetite, hurting the spleen if you are in a hurry, and the law should be cooked and chewed".
Chu Ping stopped her: "Today is my fault, I can't accompany the girl to eat slowly." The girl doesn't have to send it, you can sit down and eat slowly. ”
Tao Yao was about to say something, but suddenly heard a thunder outside, Tao Yao pushed the window, and then saw that above the West Lake, the mountains were empty, and it was already raining.
The willow trees on the shore of the lake hang down the swaying willow silk, the breeze blows, the dancing willow silk gently caresses the lake, and the clouds and mist of Cangshan Mountain in the distance are shrouded, looming, like a splash of ink landscape.
The drizzle is sprinkled on the surface of the lake, and the raindrops linger on the lake, bringing fresh water vapor, refreshing and pleasant, making people feel refreshed.
Tao Yao loved the scenery outside the window, and then thought that she didn't have to do needlework or study, and she was overjoyed.
Chu Ping looked embarrassed, he came on horseback and did not bring rain gear.
Tao Yao looked at the bitter gourd face, inexplicably couldn't help laughing, and said, "If the son doesn't dislike it, you can take my carriage back to the library." ”
Chu Ping thanked Tao Yao.
Tao Yao also got up to send him downstairs, called Tao Yi, and instructed him to drive Chu Ping back to the library, and borrowed a set of clothes from the shopkeeper for Tao Yi.
Tao Yi thanked Tao Yao, waited for the shopkeeper to bring the clothes, and gave Chu Ping an oil-paper umbrella.
Tao Yao looked at the rain outside the window, full of interest, and thought that Qian Yu was going out tomorrow, Zhao Wanrong must be busy, and the two of them had to tell each other again and again, so they were sorry to say goodbye, and it was inconvenient for them to disturb more, so they should wait for her to talk to her when she was free.
However, today's spring scenery of the West Lake with a light rain cannot be disappointed, so he said to Xiao Er: "Is there still any idle boat in Tianxianglou's lake boat?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Yes, I will also find you Lao Liutou, he rows the most steadily." ”
Tao Yao said happily: "Help me move the beautiful meal to the lake boat, and warm me a pot of wine." The spring scenery of the light rain in the West Lake is the most suitable for the delicacies of your Tianxianglou. ”
The shopkeeper should go and arrange it.
Chu Ping was standing at the door waiting for Tao Yi to wear a coat to catch the carriage, he looked at Tao Yao with great interest from the side door of Tianxianglou lakeside inn, supported by Xiao Er on the boat, a leaf boat, a pot of old wine, full of delicacies, on this rainy day, boating on the lake, watching the spring rain continuously, from the lake to enjoy the scenery, to see the distant mountains and near the water, to go straight into the painting, become a scene of the lake and mountains, how to be at ease.
Chu Ping longed for it, but he had no choice but to be trapped in the mundane world, so he could only call the shopkeeper to come and pay for Tao Yao with the silver needed for today's wine tour in the lake.
After a while, the old master could no longer enter Chu Ping's ears and eyes, he sat in the school, and everything he thought in his heart turned out to be a peach on the boating lake.
Chu Ping felt a little regret in his heart, he had just promised her that if he wanted to go where to play, he would definitely accompany him if he raised his arms, but now, she was boating on the lake, and she was here.
He couldn't help but tilt his head to look out the window at the drizzle like a curtain, ticking down along the eaves.
Even Old Master Qi was surprised when he saw it, Chu Ping, who had always been attentive, would even run away, looking straight at the rain outside the window, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The classics and historical classics that I originally thought were interesting, but against the backdrop of the continuous drizzle outside, they became boring, Chu Ping never felt that reading was so difficult, Chu Ping suddenly laughed at himself, no wonder Tao Yao didn't like to read.
There are so many elegant and interesting things in her heart, and she feels that reading is boring.
When Chu Ping finally got out of school, he couldn't help but ride a horse to Tianxiang Building, and sure enough, he asked the shopkeeper carefully, and Tao Yao had already come to take advantage of the excitement and returned happy.
Chu Ping couldn't help but ask: "Peach girl ordered someone to warm the wine, can you be drunk when you leave?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "The peach girl has a bad stomach, so she doesn't drink often, so she warms a pot of wine, but she just pours a small glass and takes a sip to help the fun." It's the same as she never drinks tea, every time she comes back, she also puts a cup of tea next to her, just smell it a little, and ask for the charm of the flat boat cooking wine.
The wine has been rewarded by the old Liu, you see, the old Liu is still asleep. ”
As he spoke, Chu Ping looked out from the side door of Tianxianglou, and saw an old man wearing a robe, sleeping on the boat with a black canopy, and snoring sounded from time to time.
Chu Ping shook her head with a smile, she was really an interesting girl.
It seems to be spontaneous, but he also knows how to advance and retreat, and knows moderation.
It's just that in the second episode, to Chu Ping's surprise, Tao Yao never drank tea.
Suddenly, I remembered that I saw her for the first time, so I gave her tea, and I was a little uneasy.
It turned out that she followed her preferences and bothered to choose and send her, but she didn't like it. This is not necessarily her fault, or maybe she doesn't know her well enough, what she likes and what she doesn't like.
If the giver is happy and happy, and the person who can receive does not like it, then all the good will not be counted.
The shopkeeper suddenly remembered something again, and said, "Old Liu Tou said that the girl is in high spirits today, and she also chanted a poem." We don't understand, but Childe may be able to understand, call ...... What is it called'Jun No', and 'Narcissus King'. ”
The shopkeeper said with a smile, but Chu Ping's mind was hit, and he was stunned for a while, it turned out that he didn't accompany her, she was really unhappy.
