Shu Huan quickly dismissed Xu's away, then went to Pinzhuxuan to find Ji Danqing to learn painting, but unexpectedly met Gu Xiran there.
It turned out that when he asked Ji Danqing for advice, he was not an excuse to keep someone, but a serious one.
After returning from the mountain, Shu Huan brought the vanilla illustration handbook with him. In addition to discussing the possibility of artificial planting of these herbs with Ji Danqing, he also asked Ji Danqing to add more pictures that they didn't pick last time. Common or uncommon herbs.
Ji Danqing was very surprised: "Your Gu family sells incense products. If you want to know these things, you can just ask your father for advice when you go back. Why do you ask me, a layman?"
Gu Xiran smiled: "I'm afraid of trouble, so it's better not to make my elder brother unhappy."
Ji Danqing often goes to Gu's house, he doesn't know about the trivial matters of Gu's house, but now that Master Gu intends to train elder Gu Xitian to take over the business, he is still clear. Hearing what Gu Xiran said, he immediately understood that he wanted to avoid suspicion, and would Ask more, just nodded slowly.
Shu Huan was listening, and originally wanted to ask, but because of Ji Danqing's presence, it was not easy to ask. When Gu Xiran turned his face away and blinked at her lightly, she immediately decided to pretend to be dead. What do you want to say? Go back and ask him again, then turn around and go out to find pleasure.
I didn't think about entering the room where Xin Xin lived, and saw Xin Xin holding a pen in his hand, scribbling something on the table. Seeing her coming in, he threw away the pen in his hand in a panic, and then rubbed the paper on the table. In a ball, hid behind.
It's a pity that she has been seen, and it's useless for her to hide.
Shu Huan was surprised: "You can write?"
A woman without talent is a virtue.
These days, not all the ladies from wealthy families can read and write.
Xinxin panicked for a moment, and subconsciously denied it: "No... I can't read..."
It was the first time I heard her speak, but instead of showing joy, Shu Huan frowned slightly, looked at her seriously and said, "Then show me the ball of paper in your hand."
Enjoyment hesitated for a moment: "No... don't..."
Presumably because she hadn't spoken for a long time, her voice was hoarse and her tone sounded a bit awkward.
silence.
Shu Huan just looked at her like this, without saying a word.
Feeling a little uneasy when she looked at her, she lowered her head and clenched the hand holding the ball of paper.
Only then did Shu Huan sigh: "I don't know what happened to you that made you so wary of people, but you've lived here for a long time, do you still think we're harmful to you?"
No words, just shook his head.
Shu Huan didn't force her, just said: "I was just a little surprised to see you writing, and I didn't intend to explore. If you don't want to talk about the things you have experienced before, you can bury them in your heart. I can't get used to it, and I can leave if I want to... "
When she said this, she stood up in a panic: "I... no... don't want to leave..."
Seeing her panicked face, Shu Huan couldn't help laughing: "That's it. If you don't want to leave, it is very important to speak up. It is not for you to talk about the things you have experienced before, but for you to learn to communicate with others with words. After all You are not living in the barren mountains and wild mountains now, surrounded by people, you have to speak out your many thoughts before others will know."
She lowered her head, as if in deep thought.
Shu Huan said again: "For example, Xiaosi, if he makes you angry, you should tell him clearly that what he does will only annoy you, but you can also be like just now, I want to see the ball of paper in your hand, Just tell me that you don’t want to show it to me. If you don’t say it, others will easily get it wrong and force you to do something you don’t want to do.”
Enjoying the heart hesitated and nodded, hesitant to speak.
Shu Huan stared at her with interest: "What do you want to say?"
"I..." Yanxin hesitated again and again, but still tried to open his mouth: "I want... to help with something..."
Shu Huan laughed, and then looked at her ponderingly: "Do you think the day is too busy and boring, or are you afraid that if you don't do something, I will drive you out later?"
She was trying to lure Xiangxin to speak more, as long as she said it smoothly, there would be no psychological barriers to speak again.
Sure enough, Xianxin quickly replied this time: "You guys... saved me, I can't eat and drink for nothing..."
Shu Huan was slightly stunned, before he could answer, Shang Xin knelt down and kowtowed: "Second Grandma... you can take me as a maid... I don't want... go back..."
She didn't say the reason why she didn't want to go back, but she spread the paper in her hand, lowered her head, and held it in front of Shu Huan.
Shu Huan took a look, and there were only three words written repeatedly on the paper—
Jiang Yuqing.
Three gentle and poetic words.
"Jiang Yuqing." Shu Huan read it slowly, and while stretching out his hand to pull her up, he asked, "What's your name?"
"En." Xin Xin lowered her head even lower, not knowing whether it was preoccupied or embarrassing.
"It's a nice name." Shu Huan smiled slightly: "Then I'll call you Yuqing from now on."
Unexpectedly, Xiangxin panicked immediately, shook her head and said: "No"
Why not, she didn't explain, just begged and looked at Shu Huan helplessly.
Although he was a little curious, Shu Huan still didn't press the question, but simply replied: "Okay."
Only then did Xiangxin breathe a sigh of relief: "Then I'll go and serve Second Mistress."
After speaking a few more words, her speaking speed and tone gradually became normal.
Shu Huan mused and shook his head and said: "I can't stay in the other courtyard all the time, I always have to go back to my family's mansion. I can still make decisions here, but I can't help myself when I go back. Besides, the Gu family will not let anyone in casually." , if you want to follow me, you will need to sell your body, and you may be wronged at that time, so you should think it through before you speak."
"I..." Xin Xin was about to express his opinion immediately.
Shu Huan stretched his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture: "Don't make a decision so quickly, your leg injury hasn't healed yet, it doesn't matter if you think about it for ten days and a half months, because some things can't be regretted of."
Staring at her apprehensively, he nodded.
The two people here were talking, and Gu Xihe sneaked in to mess around. Fortunately, Shu Huan was watching. He stayed here for a while, but he also knew in his heart that Gu Xiran didn't have to go back, he couldn't, the old matriarch would not agree, so Shu Huan only gave a few words of persuasion, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only nod his head first.
Yes, yes, he is still bargaining: "I will go back the day before autumn."
Shu Huan shook his head: "No, it's too late."
"The other two days?"
Shu Huan sounded amused, and was about to answer when a voice outside the door said calmly: "You can go back tomorrow."
Gu Xihe saw Gu Xiran in a blink of an eye, and called out depressedly: "Second brother..."
The voice was full of helplessness and grievance.
Gu Xiran walked up to him, reached out and patted his head, and said with a smile: "Two days ago, someone sent a letter from the mansion, saying that the master and elder brother will go out after autumn, so you can go back to accompany him two days earlier, that's fine." To please the Taijun and the master, just endure it for a few days, and when the master goes out, you can play however you want."
When Gu Xihe heard this, he fell silent.
Gu Xiran smiled, ignored him, reached out to grab Shu Huan's hand, squeezed it tightly, and said, "Mother, let's go back."
This is simply showing affection in front of people.
Shu Huan glanced at him helplessly and followed him out.
After walking to the door, I heard Gu Xihe say to each other from inside: "See, there are not many couples in this world who are as loving as my second brother and second sister-in-law."
It's just holding hands, it's nothing normal, is it worth admiring in such a ostentatious tone
Shu Huan blushed, quickly quickened her pace, and left as if fleeing.
