Chapter 07

Rong Jin has been in good order in the other courtyard for the past few days, and she has not acted out of the ordinary at all, and Granny Su saw that she was so knowledgeable and interested, and she was originally a little bit of a mustard from her background.

After listening to Shang Lu's relay, she knew that she wanted to copy Buddhist scriptures for her deceased mother, and she was even more soft-hearted, so she specially asked someone to send a high-quality pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Since he was a child, Rong Jin has never used such a good pen and paper, and he is doubly careful when he writes, for fear of wasting paper if he writes badly.

The wound on his wrist has not healed, and after writing for a while, he has to put his pen on hold for a while.

Rong Jin rubbed the wound, and secretly sighed that when Shen Yu was ruthless, he would also think of the situation that night from time to time.

Shen Yu is really unpredictable, and her intuition makes her stay away, but she unconsciously thinks about it.

"Sister Yun, look," Shang Lu touched the little finch in his palm to Rong Jin through the window, "its injury is finally healed." ”

Rong Jin had gradually become accustomed to his sudden appearance and would not be frightened by it.

She put away the Buddhist scriptures that were dried on the small table, leaned over and leaned down by the window, looked at the old wounds of the little bird, and said with a smile: "Not bad." ”

Seeing that Shang Lu couldn't put it down, Rong Jin gave another extra advice: "It's okay to look at it occasionally, don't touch it more." If it is contaminated with too much unfamiliar atmosphere, I am afraid that its parents will not recognize it. ”

Shang Lu also woke up after she mentioned this, and then put the little finch back into the nest.

He patted off the dust on his sleeves, and then returned to the window, only to see Rong Jin sitting on the couch again, his back straight, slowly transcribing Buddhist scriptures.

The afternoon sunlight shines through the open flower window and sprinkles on her, making her look particularly warm and soft.

Shang Lu looked at it with his cheeks tilted, stunned for a while, and did not feel bored as usual, nor did he make a sound to disturb. When Rong Jin put down his pen and rested, he was curious: "Sister Yun, how long have you practiced this character?" ”

He has never been serious and enlightened, and he doesn't like to read, although he has been pressed by Shen Yu to study intermittently for two years, he also recognizes some common words. If you write it yourself, each "crooked melon and cracked date" is no different from insects crawling.

And the word Rong Jin looks beautiful and elegant, not like it can be written casually.

Rong Jin kneaded his wrist and said truthfully: "I haven't practiced it deliberately." ”

The family is not wealthy, not to mention that she is a girl, reading and writing is useless, so she will not deliberately teach her to learn this. It's just that because of her mother, there are many Buddhist scriptures stored at home, and she is also able to read and write.

"How is that possible?" Shang Lu said in disbelief, "I practiced for half a year earlier, but it was always not the same, and I almost ......made my son angry."

Shang Lu has no teacher in martial arts, but in terms of reading and literacy, he seems to be born with a lack of roots. Shen Yu tried to teach, but it was half the effort, and finally he stopped reluctant and let him go.

"The same goes for my little sister." Rong Jin remembered the old things, pursed his lips and smiled, "If you really want to write well, it's not difficult, but you have to be calm and persevering." ”

"But if you don't have the intention of doing this, don't force it, it's enough to be able to recognize and write."

Rong Jin looked at the dagger on Shang Lu's waist and sighed slightly: "If you ask me to choose, I hope to have such neat skills as you." ”

Come and go freely, without restraint.

Shang Lu thought deeply of Rong Jin's words, and didn't notice the vague regret in her voice, but praised Shen Yulai: "It's still the son who is the most powerful, he can write well, he knows everything, and he is good at it, he ...... back then."

His admiration for Shen Yu was beyond words, but he stopped abruptly in the middle of his words and pursed his lips fiercely.

Rong Jin guessed that he was thinking of Shen Yu's leg injury, thinking about Dr. Xun's "diagnosis" that day, and also understood that Shen Yu could no longer be like before.

No matter how he was on the battlefield back then, he was skilled, but now he can only be tormented by illness, and it is even difficult to walk freely.

Such a worldly different situation, in the eyes of outsiders like her, feel embarrassed, let alone those close to her?

After Shen Yu took leave, he recuperated in another hospital for a few days.

Xun Shuo can't wait for him to rest like this, stop working hard for those so-called government officials, and he can take advantage of this to make arrangements to properly regulate this old disease.

But everyone knows it's impossible.

With Shen Yu's current status, he is destined to "do his best" and it is difficult to be idle.

He took a leave of absence for a few days, and accumulated a lot of chores at hand, but before he could deal with it, he was summoned to Hanyuan Hall again after the morning court.

Xiao Pingyan first asked about some government affairs, and when the business was almost discussed, the conversation changed: "I heard that you have been staying in another courtyard for the past few days and have never returned home." ”

The Shen family is a century-old family since the beginning of the dynasty, Zhong Ming is a food, and Shen Yu is an impeccable descendant, and it is logical to inherit the family business. But because of the old things of his father's generation in his early years, Shen Yu was not close to the clan, especially after returning from Mobei, he did not often live in the Shen Mansion.

Xiao Pingyan naturally knew this, and had never asked much about it in the past, but now the rumors and rumors slandering Shen Yu were flying all over the sky, and even said that Shen Xiang begged for an outer room from the back house of King Li's mansion to raise, and he liked it very much.

He originally wanted to expose the matter and no longer bother with Shen Yu, but now he still can't ignore it.

"Yes." Shen Yu admitted it casually, and said helplessly, "You know the situation of my family, if you go back to the house to recuperate, there will be all kinds of relatives to greet and visit, it is better to be cleaner in the other courtyard." ”

"If you want to be pure, you really don't care about your reputation? I used to think you were a smart man, how could you be so ...... in this matter?"

Xiao Pingyan had never "hated iron but not steel" to Shen Yu like this, but before he finished reprimanding, the chamberlain cautiously came to spread the word, saying that the Queen Mother had sent the county lord of Ming'an to send dim sum.

When it comes to seniority, the county lord of Ming'an is Xiao Pingyan's cousin, who was raised under the knees of the queen mother when he was young, and was especially loved by her old man, and he was not far behind the princess.

Xiao Pingyan helped his forehead and glared at Shen Yu angrily.

Clear-eyed people know that the lord of Ming'an loves Shen Yu, and the queen mother also belongs to him, but Shen Yu insists on keeping the unfulfilled filial piety for his deceased parents, and no one can say anything.

However, the county lord of Ming'an recognized him, and he insisted on refusing to discuss his relatives in the past two years, and finally waited until the filial piety period, and the queen mother had the intention of giving marriage, who knew that Shen Yu went to the Li Wangfu and caused these troubles in the future.

After the Queen Mother learned about it early in the morning, her heart for marriage eased, but the county lord of Ming'an obviously couldn't let it go when she came back this time.

Originally, everyone was happy to be like this, no matter how much Xiao Pingyan relied on Shen Yu, he was still angry when he saw him.

After the county lord of Ming'an was summoned, he helped Bu Shao, and then took the food box from the palace maid, and Shi Shiran entered the door.

She was specially dressed up today, drawing eyebrows and eyes, with exquisite makeup, and a gorgeous pomegranate skirt was even more gorgeous and delicate. But Shen Yu lowered his eyelashes and did not squint, like a monk who had settled down.

Xiao Pingyan saw this in his eyes and sighed secretly.

In the past two years, he also saw that Shen Yu had no intention of Ming'an, but he was still thinking about matchmaking. First, it is to follow the queen mother's wishes, and second, it is to let his grandfather's family marry Shen Yu and be connected for a long time.

Regardless of his background or appearance, Ming An is the first class among the nobles of the family, and he is infatuated, but Shen Yu is always unmoved.

After Ming An saluted and greeted him, he asked Shen Yu with a smile: "I heard that Shen Xiang's old illness recurred a few days ago, but now he is better?" My brother recently got a snow lotus, which is the easiest to use medicine, so I will send it to you another day. ”

Shen Yu smiled slightly: "There is Lord Lao's arms." However, it has been a long time, and I can only raise it slowly, such valuable medicinal materials are actually useless, and it is a waste for me. ”

Ming An retorted: "How can this be called waste? Even if it can have some effect, it's good. ”

Xiao Pingyan was impatient to look at the pull of this child's affection, and simply said: "Ming'an is also a good intention, don't refuse." ”

Shen Yu responded.

Fortunately, Xiao Pingyan also knew that there were still a lot of affairs waiting to be cooked, so he kept him gossiping for a while, and then let him go.

The backlog of affairs in the past few days kept Shen Yu busy for most of the day, and it was not until dusk that he left the imperial city. He didn't take the daytime application to heart, never returned to the Shen Mansion, and still went to the other courtyard.

Shen Yu glanced at Cheng Ying and Changfeng who came up, and said casually: "What about Shang Lu?" ”

He didn't care about it at first, but after asking casually, he also realized that he hadn't seen much of Shang Lu in the past few days.

Changfeng said without thinking: "It should be in the Hosoliuyuan." ”

"Hosoyanagi-in?" Shen Yu paused, "What is he doing there?" ”

Cheng Ying pondered the wording and said truthfully: "That Yun girl is now living in Xiliuyuan, Shang Lu may be idle and boring, but he is familiar with her a little ......."

Shen Yu hadn't asked before, and it wasn't until this time that he knew that Rong Jin was arranged to live in the Xiliu Courtyard.

"But after a few days, can you be considered familiar?" Shen Yu sensed the subtlety in Cheng Ying's voice, raised his eyebrows, and chose the way to Xiliuyuan at the fork in the road.

If it weren't for the fact that there was something serious about him, Shang Lu would not be able to sit still, and Shen Yu had not thought of any ideas to polish it in the past few years, but it had little effect, and he couldn't think of anything interesting about such a small courtyard for a while.

The gate of Hosoyanagi Temple is half open, and when you look at it, you can see a beautiful woman sitting at the stone table under the tree.

She was dressed in a goose-yellow skirt, with a homely bun of ordinary silver hairpins, no grease powder, no jewels and jade decorations all over her body, and she was concentrating on writing something.

Shang Lu was opposite her, cutting paper quietly, and he couldn't see the slightest impatience.

Shen Yu brought people back from King Li's Mansion at that time, and he pushed the boat down the river and borrowed the hands of King Li to relieve the pressure on the royal family. There was a lot of gossip outside, about how he was so stupid and dizzy for a lowly woman, but he never took people seriously, and he didn't even know who her name was.

If you have to study it carefully, it's a good-looking, not noisy, and well-informed one.

And now, Shen Yu looked at her from a distance for a while, and suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated her.
