The period from Chinese New Year to Lantern Festival is the busiest time in Goulan every year.
Li Yi sits in front of the window of the small building, writing the latest repertoire with a pen. Goulan can be popular with the audience for a long time, thanks to the endless wonderful stories, which are the essence of the Chinese nation's culture for thousands of years in his mind. The old-fashioned scripts collected below obviously cannot meet the needs of the people.
Wan Ruoqing opened the door and came in, holding a food box in his hand, and said softly: "I have been busy all morning, I made some porridge, you can drink some."
"It's okay, you put it there first, and I'll eat it after writing this discount." Li Yi raised his head and said something, but his stomach growled.
From morning to now, I haven't eaten anything, but I'm really hungry.
However, in fact, there was not much left to write, and he didn't want to interrupt halfway, which would seem troublesome.
Wan Ruoqing came over with a food box, took out the bowl of porridge, sat beside him, and said, "Eat some first, the script is not in a hurry."
Li Yi didn't say anything more this time. He picked up the spoon with one hand, and the other hand was not idle. He took a sip of porridge, wrote a line, and then took another sip...
Thinking in my heart whether a certain part of the bridge is suitable for this place, I hold the spoon in my left hand and gradually stop in the air.
Then, a soft hand took the spoon from him and brought the spoonful of porridge to his mouth.
Wan Ruoqing smiled and said, "I can't do two things with one mind, so let me do it."
Li Yi smiled awkwardly: "This...how embarrassing."
Stretch out your hand when you come to clothes, open your mouth when you come to eat, the treatment that only a rich young master of a rich family can have, it is too extravagant and depraved. In order to express his inner uneasiness and apology, Li Yi decided to write two more discounts to get a little peace of mind.
Li Yi swallowed a mouthful of porridge she fed, and asked casually, "How are those children recently?"
"In the past few days, I'm asking them to learn something from the old man in the Goulan." Wan Ruoqing nodded and said, "It's not an option to keep doing cleaning work. Learn more, and you can support yourself in the future. When the time comes It’s up to them whether to stay in the tick box or choose something else.”
Li Yi thinks this is a good way. Although they are all children, there are still some very talented people in it. They grew up in Goulan, and their feelings for this place are naturally comparable to others. If they are cultivated well, maybe in the future Can also be entrusted with important tasks.
I also chatted with her about Gou Lan, but even though the drama could not be finished, the porridge would always be finished, and when Wan Ruoqing put down the bowl, it would be pointless to write any more.
He stood up, stretched his body, and said, "Go for a walk."
Wan Ruoqing nodded slightly, even though Goulan had a lot of things to do in the two days before Lantern Festival, what could be better than two people walking together
Of course Li Yi knows that even if it's just two people walking together, she can be in a good mood all day long, but he doesn't know that just after walking downstairs, she meets someone he doesn't want to meet now, especially at this time. to the people.
The new Mr. Jing Zhaoyin Zeng was dressed in casual clothes and had no entourage around him. He could easily be lost in the crowd in the crowd of people coming and going.
Zeng Shichun stood opposite, looked at him and said, "Zi Mo said you were here."
Of course Zui Mo knew he was here. He came from Yangliu Lane. Li Yi looked at him and asked tentatively, "What's the matter?"
"Something" means that if you have something to do, just say it's okay and then leave quickly. I didn't see that I still have important things to be busy here. Do you know that you can't change the time because you appear inappropriate now
Obviously, Master Zeng didn't understand what he meant, and said, "This is not a place to talk."
A slight smile appeared on Wan Ruoqing's face, and said, "My lord, come in and talk."
Li Yi shook his head and walked into the small building again.
Zeng Shichun picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said: "I have had people repairing that house. It has been too long, and it cannot be exactly the same as it was ten years ago, but it is estimated that seven people can repair it." Eight points are similar, Zui Mo's birthday is in April, so the time comes quickly."
Li Yi nodded and said: "In that case, Liu Yishou found some doubts from the files of the Criminal Ministry a few days ago, but after all, it was a case thirteen years ago. It has been a long time, and the servant of the household department died again On the road of exile, many clues are difficult to check... However, this is not difficult for him, and he should be able to catch up."
Zeng Shichun raised his eyes to look at him, and asked: "A few days ago, the rumors about the eldest princess spread among the people, you should know who did it?"
Li Yi shook his head: "The one who will benefit the most from summoning the king of Shu back to the capital to replace the eldest princess will naturally be the one."
"The head of the Cui family, Cui Qingze, has fallen ill." Zeng Shichun put down his teacup and said, "Now the head of the Cui family is Cui Qingming, the second son of the Cui family. This person is more difficult to deal with than Cui Qingze. Regardless of the consequences, you should be careful."
He looked at Li Yi, and said again: "Don't think that the Cui family only has this ability. This time His Royal Highness dismantled Si Tianjian, and the Cui family's rumor offensive also ran aground among the people, although I don't know what you think , but thinking about it, you don’t want King Shu to return to the capital to take over the eldest princess’s place of administration..., not to mention anything else, if Grand Tutor Chu takes the lead this time, it will definitely not be so easy to resolve this matter.”
"Chu Taifu, will you directly stand up because of the Cui family?"
Li Yi's impression of that Mr. Chu is actually good. The old man doesn't look as pedantic as he imagined, and this time he didn't stand with the Cui family to make trouble. If it is really like what Zeng Shichun said, then things will really change. trouble.
Zeng Shichun shook his head and said, "According to the temperament of the Taifu, no."
He changed his voice and said again: "I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?"
Zeng Shichun shook his head again, and said: "I should be thinking too much... In short, the Cui family will not give up easily, so be careful."
Li Yi nodded and said, "I know."
In his heart, he has never underestimated the Cui family. Certain extreme methods are not easy to use until the last moment, and it is better to proceed step by step.
Afterwards, Zeng Shichun just drank tea and didn't say anything else. Li Yi suppressed some thoughts and thought about going out for a walk with Ruoqing. Seeing that Mr. Zeng had no intention of leaving at all, he asked tentatively: " Master Zeng, do you want to stay and have a meal by the way?"
Generally speaking, when visiting someone else's house temporarily, when hearing that the owner is so convincing to stay, you should refuse and get up to leave. This is an invisible tacit understanding between people.
However, he regretted it as soon as he said it, because historical experience shows that Lord Zeng and him did not have such a tacit understanding.
Sure enough, Zeng Shichun put down his teacup, raised his head, and said, "Okay."
…
The Chu family, after the family banquet, when Chu Ping helped Mrs. Chu back to the room, he suddenly asked, "Grandpa, when is the next time we go out?"
"I'm old, I can't walk any more," Taifu Chu said, then raised his eyes to look at him, and asked, "Why, you don't like the capital and want to go out again?"
"No..." Chu Ping shook his head again and again: "Although the outside world has more knowledge, there are also good things in Kyoto..."
Mrs. Chu nodded, and said: "You have seen a lot outside these years, what you need now is to calm down and settle down, don't follow those people to mess around outside..."
"Grandson knows." Chu Ping nodded again and again, and said: "Grandson is not messing around, but he has improved in the art of piano recently, and he often goes to the music workshop to listen to music..."
"Okay..." After returning to the room, Mrs. Chu waved his hand and said, "The Lantern Festival is approaching, so you can relax a little bit. Go ahead..."
Chu Ping helped Taifu Chu to the bed, and then said: "Grandfather, rest well, grandson will leave..."
"Miaoyin Pavilion, Shuangshuang girls..."
The Cui family, Cui Qingming stood in front of the door, looked into the distance, and murmured.
