Chapter 133
"Wait. Xie Yi didn't want Xie Cheng to slip away so quickly, he looked at Shen Lang, and replaced his father's sternness with the kindness of the elders and asked with a smile, "Zichu is idle and boring, why don't you just play with my son?"
Shen Lang is quite literate, and Xie Cheng is involved in both literature and martial arts, but he still prefers more martial arts, so Xie Yi wants to put Shen Lang next to Xie Cheng, so that his son is not inferior to others in terms of literary talent.
Seeing that Shen Lang was a little moved, Xie Yi smiled again: "Your cousin learns riding and archery martial arts in the morning, and follows Mr. Ye Chiye in the afternoon. After all, he would feel lonely and bored by himself. ”
Ye Chi is famous, although he is not as good as the great Confucian, but he is not bad. Today, the saint admires his talent and fame, and sent someone to invite him to enter the court as an official three times, and even promised him the position of prime minister, but he was rejected three times. He once swore in front of his mother that he would never enter the profession for the rest of his life.
The emperor didn't blame when he heard this, he just sighed: "Mr. is talented, he can pass through the heavens and the earth, but he is only willing to be idle clouds and wild cranes, which is really a pity." ”
Because of this sentence, Ye Chi's reputation is even better.
Shen Lang also knew Ye Chi, so he looked at Xie Yi and couldn't believe it.
Xie Yi smiled: "Mr. Ye is my old friend, and now he is a guest in the house." ”
Xie Yuan had no interest in any of this, and after drinking a bowl of sour plum soup, she got up and said goodbye to her father and went back to Jinlan Garden.
After taking a nap, Xie Yuan took the book and sat upright at the desk and read it carefully.
I don't know how long it took, there were three knocks on the door outside the small study, Xie Yuan put down the book in her hand, and felt that it should be the lotus seeds in the four maids who knocked on the door, she was the most secure in doing things, and she couldn't tolerate a single mistake.
Sure enough, Lianzi's voice came in outside the door: "Girl, do you want to have a cup of tea?"
"Come in. Xie Yuan rubbed her temples and felt that her eyes were a little sour.
Lotus Seed pushed open the door and brought tea and snacks in, the tea is mint tea, which can be drunk in the summer to cool off the heat and clear the heart, and the dim sum is a piece of cake pinched into the shape of a flower, with the fragrance of lotus leaves, which is very top-notch.
Xie Yuan was happy when she saw the food, she unhurriedly put a bookmark in the page, cleaned her hands and picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in her mouth. Hou Mansion has three meals a day, for Xie Yuan, who is recuperating her body, eating a little outside of the main meal can make her body better.
Lianzi also felt happy when she saw the girl like this, she was originally the little maid by Xie Yuan's side, but her status was not as high as it is now, at that time, the girl ate what she ate and vomited, and finally ate a little milk, and vomited it out again that night...... She looked distressed.
Now that the girl is well, she likes these foods, which is really a gift from God.
"You taste it. Xie Yuan noticed that Lianzi was staring at the small snack and thought that she wanted to eat it too.
Lianzi hurriedly refused: "Girl, this is unacceptable." The maid just remembered that the girl had lost her mind in the past. ”
Xie Yuan smiled: "Why are you so entangled in the past?"
Lianzi was about to say something, when there was a knock on the door outside the small study, and the knock was a little impatient: "Girl, the eldest prince is here!"
Xie Cheng is the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, and according to the convention, he inherits the title, but everything has not yet been listed, so the subordinates of the Hou Mansion call him the eldest prince, not the prince.
Xie Yuan has four maids who serve with him, lotus seeds, longan, lilies, and almonds. Lotus Seed has the most calm personality, doing things properly and quickly; Longan has a timid, soft and glutinous personality, but is the most meticulous; Lily is a little grinning and has an unforgiving mouth, and is the most spicy and difficult to provoke; Almond is good to everyone and has the most popularity.
Such an impatient act, there is no one else but Lily.
Seeing the displeasure on Xie Yuan's face, Lianzi hurriedly said loudly: "The girl knows, you go down first!"
Xie Yuan stuffed the last piece of pastry into his mouth, drank the mint tea slowly, and wiped his fingers with a towel. Only then did he get up slowly and went out to greet the big brother of this body, Xie Cheng.
Xie Yuan hadn't experienced too many intrigues in her previous life, because she had always reasoned with her fists, but this did not prevent her from seeing the careful thinking of others. There are many flattering people around, and I can always tell the difference between true feelings and falsehoods.
Xie Cheng is very smart, maybe he is Xie Huan's good brother, but he is by no means Xie Yuan's good brother.
When Xie Yuan came out, Xie Cheng was talking to Zhang's mother, and the conversation was nothing more than Xie Yuan. Seeing her, Xie Cheng also stopped talking, and looked at her with a smile: "Is Sister Yuan reading? ”
Xie Yuan answered, the expression on her face was very flat, as usual, as if the person sitting in front of her was not her own brother, but a stranger she didn't know.
Xie Cheng is not Xie Yi, and he doesn't have much affection for Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan's feelings for him are also very light, and the throbbing of blood in his blood is almost non-existent.
Xie Cheng didn't care, he ordered his little servant to put a small vine box on the table, and said to Xie Yuan with a smile: "Sister Yuan, this is a funny gadget I bought for you on the street, it can be regarded as a meeting gift." ”
He opened the small box of vine rose, and there were several grasshoppers, beetles, and dragonflies woven of bamboo silk, as well as a few small dolls and small animals made of clay, and the workmanship was very delicate and meticulous, which showed that he had chosen them with heart. Xie Cheng's sister Xie Huan has always liked these gadgets, and every time she sees him in his free time, she will pester him to buy them.
When she went to visit her and got these things, she didn't know how happy she was.
It's a pity that Xie Yuan has no interest in the things that these children play with, she has lived longer than Xie Yi, so she just glanced at it lightly and looked away.
Xie Cheng felt frustrated, because several little maids were staring at the small box of vines and reluctant to take their eyes off, but the youngest sister had no interest in this - he originally thought that Xie Yuan had lived in Qiushan Temple for a long time and had no toys, and he would at least feel new when he saw these.
Mother Zhang stood aside and looked a little funny: "Childe, our girls never play with this." If you give her this, it's no wonder she doesn't want to talk to you. ”
Xie Yi loved Xie Yuan, and when he went up the mountain, he also brought these things that children liked, but Xie Yuan didn't even look at them. Mother Zhang looked at it and felt that the eldest son's heart was the same as that of Hou Ye, she was pure and kind-hearted, and everyone was a good word, where would she think that Xie Cheng actually didn't like Xie Yuan very much?
Xie Cheng felt annoyed, if he came and left his things, he would not end up in the current predicament. But everything has already happened, and we have to find a way to fix it.
So he put away his impatience a little, took out his brother's modest pampering for his sister and asked, "What does my sister like, my brother can help my sister and send it to my sister." ”
Xie Yuan looked at him, pointed to his coat pocket and asked, "What's that?"
It was like a little wooden box.
"Does my sister like this?" Xie Cheng took out the thing, it was a small wooden box containing Xie Cheng's new toy, Kong Ming Lock, which his peers were playing with in popularity, but few of them could put it together. Xie Cheng thinks that his intelligence is not inferior to those who can fight together, so he naturally has to hurry up and play with him, so as to show off with his friends.
The nobles in Baiyujing like to hold banquets, and Xie Yuan in Qianyuan Houfu will also hold banquets when he comes back from Qiushan Temple, inviting some famous families to come to the banquet. The children of each family will also follow, and over time, they have formed a circle, and the circle between these children will be Bai Yujing's new circle of elites after more than ten years.
Xie Cheng didn't think that Xie Yuan could see the fame in it, and he couldn't see what was inside, it was just a small wooden block with a strange shape.
As mentioned earlier, Xie Yuan's eyesight is excellent, even if the light is weak, she can see it clearly. So she immediately saw that this small wooden block with exquisite workmanship was actually made up of several small wooden blocks, Xie Yuan was curious, she took this Kong Ming lock and fiddled with it with both hands, because she had a good logical thinking, so it only took her a minute or so to open this Kong Ming lock.
"I see. Xie Yuan felt a little disappointed, there was a small pile of large and small wooden blocks that had been dismantled on the table in front of her, making people feel that it was not difficult for this Kong Ming lock to be unlocked at all.
Xie Cheng's lips moved, but he didn't speak, only to see Xie Yuan quickly spell the Kong Ming lock again, this time it was a little difficult, it took her two minutes, but it was enough for Xie Cheng to be surprised.
"Brother, here you go. Xie Yuan returned Kong Ming's lock to its original owner.
Xie Cheng woke up a little at this time, he was a little annoyed, and while Zhang's mother was not paying attention, he glared at Xie Yuan, still with a smile on his face: "Sister, take it to play." ”
He said it very generously, but with a hint of gnashing of teeth in it.
Xie Cheng got up, said goodbye to Zhang's mother, and wanted to touch Xie Yuan's bud again, but Xie Yuan couldn't hide from being touched again.
She was also annoyed, and the puffed appearance of her little face made Zhang's mother and the older maids laugh for a while.
"Girl, the eldest prince is your eldest brother in the end, the future prince and the marquis, it is always good to be closer. Mother Zhang couldn't help but persuade, "Madame also hopes that the girl will be closer to the eldest son." ”
Xie Yuan just smiled, as clear and clean as a child, as if she didn't understand anything.
The next day, Xie Cheng sent someone to send a small wooden box over, and when he opened it, it was a set of jade nine consecutive rings. To take out the nine rings of these nine rings completely, the trick is that even adults are difficult to master.
These nine rings are white jade, and the jade quality is not too good, but it is a brain-wrenching thing in the end. Xie Yuan fiddled with it for a quarter of an hour before he took out the nine rings completely, and he was surprised to see that the little guy who sent things. He knew that the trick of this thing was difficult to master, and even if Xie Yi made a move, it would take some time to get it done.
These three girls are too smart.
It is said that Huiji will be hurt, and the three girls have not been able to get better, is it because they are too smart that all the heavens can't see it?
The little girl returned this matter to Xie Cheng, Xie Cheng was stunned, and admired the three sisters a little more, and couldn't help but look up to her a few points, feeling that she was not an ordinary woman who only knew how to cry and cry unreasonably. Most of the boys of his age feel uncomfortable with everything, but for those who are really capable, they are quick to soften.
Xie Cheng has a good impression of Xie Yuan, and there is such a smart sister who can have a big long face in front of her friends, 3L4
