After a while, Cheng Yuanjing came out from inside. When they saw that Cheng Yujin was gone, they asked, "where's Miss Cheng?"

"She reads and writes in it." Cheng Yuanjing said lightly, "she's still young. She can't leave her homework behind."

This sentence sounds strange. Lin Qingyuan says with a smile: "Jingxing, you have changed a lot. At the end of the palace examination, many people secretly asked if you were married. You said it was too troublesome and refused. Why are you so patient now that you are in the mood to instruct your niece in her lessons? "

Li Hanji, an old scholar, became a scholar in the imperial palace. But teaching the younger generation homework is at least the hobby of the elderly. Cheng Yuanjing is only 19 years old, so it's too early to worry about the reading and writing of the next generation.

Cheng Yuanjing rarely pause for a while, and then lightly cover up the past: "she is irritable, I don't look at her, no one will look at her."

Lin Qingyuan and others think that this is to say that only Cheng Yuanjing can control the young lady. If he doesn't care, no one else can. But Huo Changyuan hears that Cheng Yuanjing says that if he doesn't care about Cheng Yujin, no one cares about her.

Huo Changyuan suddenly had some strange emotions. When he was engaged to Cheng Yujin, he heard a lot about Cheng Yujin's situation. He knew that she was adopted as soon as she was born. Although there was a noble princess, Qingfu didn't care about her at all. People only love her. Ruan has real feelings for Cheng Yujin, but Ruan has deeper feelings for Cheng Yumo.

As for Mrs. Cheng, she is a snobbish woman who wants to claim power regardless of everything. She favors the granddaughter who is useful, and favors the granddaughter who brings the most benefits to the marquis. In this environment, Cheng Yujin actually had a hard time.

However, she grew up smoothly and became a well-known lady, which shows the tenacity of her heart. Cheng Yujin '. However, Huo Changyuan only two months to leave, he also became one of those who hurt Cheng Yujin.

Huo Changyuan originally resented Cheng Yujin for cheating him, but at this moment he watched another man defend Cheng Yujin and plan for her. He felt dull pain in his heart. As if, once there was a treasure in his hand, he didn't cherish it, now it belongs to others.

Xu Zhixian sat down for a while. He came into the inner door to look for his grandmother and cousins. Before he left last time, he didn't talk to Cheng Yujin. Xu Zhixian felt uncomfortable when she came home. It seemed that he had to talk to her. Now when Cheng Yuanjing talks with Lin Qingyuan, he doesn't understand and is not interested. Xu Zhixian wants to talk to sister Jin inside.

Xu Zhixian just stood up and took two steps. Cheng Yuanjing, who was talking with Lin Qingyuan, pressed his eyes accurately: "what are you doing?"

Xu Zhixian was startled, subconsciously stood up straight, respectfully replied: "go to find sister Jin."

I haven't seen the rules of posture when I was lecturing.

Cheng Yuan Jing look unchanged, said: "she is busy, inconvenient to disturb."

Xu Zhixian holds his fingers in a tangled way. He is different from these people here. He stays in the inner house all the year round. He knows that women's families have a lot of time, and they don't need to take the exam. There's nothing really important that can't be bothered at all. Xu Zhixian is not willing to give up, struggling: "but she is alone in it, no one talks, I'm afraid she will be bored."

"She's not bored." Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Xu Zhixian, as if casually, "when the banquet was held in the front yard, madam Hou sent someone to ask you to go to Shouan hall after the banquet. It's late now. It's not good to keep the elders waiting for a long time. "

Xu Zhixian believes it and runs to Shouan hall. Xu Zhixian's figure soon disappeared. Cheng Yuanjing faintly took back his sight. In a twinkling of an eye, he just collided with Huo Changyuan.

Huo Changyuan is looking at him thoughtfully. Cheng Yuanjing doesn't dodge. His eyes are calm, and there is pressure in them. Huo Changyuan soon can't hold on and turns his eyes.

After half, Huo Changyuan never saw Cheng Yujin again. It's strange to know that she is just across the room, but Cheng Yuanjing is lying in the middle. Lin Qingyuan and Huo Changyuan left one after another. When Huo Changyuan was not able to sit down, he got up. Huo Changyuan thought to himself that Cheng Yujin would never miss such a big thing as seeing off guests because of her comprehensive etiquette and her refusal to let others talk. However, he was wrong. Cheng Yuanjing sent them to the door. The door and window of the study were still tightly closed.

Cheng Yuanjing noticed Huo Changyuan's action, eyes deep, looking at him not to speak. After waiting for everyone to leave, Cheng Yuanjing stood outside and walked slowly back to the house.

In the study, Cheng Yujin was really busy. She practiced according to Cheng Yuanjing's handwriting for a long time. Suddenly, she felt that she wanted Du Ruo to go back to the yard to get her embroidery basket. Now, she is sitting on the chair, with a pile of sewing and cloth beside her, and she is concentrating on walking the needle.

When Cheng Yuanjing came in, Cheng Yujin was already taking up the line. Cheng Yuanjing watched the white hands flying up and down. His fingers were incredibly flexible, as if with a strange rhythm. Cheng Yujin noticed that Cheng Yuanjing was not far away and asked, "are all the guests gone?"

"Well." As soon as the words came out, Cheng Yuanjing was stunned. What did he do to answer this question? He was his guest. What's the matter with Cheng Yujin's familiar master tone?Cheng Yujin didn't notice that their conversation is like an old husband and wife. She sewed the last few stitches and hid the thread. Then she put down the embroidery stand with relief and said, "I was just embroidering the important part. I can't go out to see the guests off. Elder brother Lin should not blame me for my impoliteness? "

Are you calling brother Lin? Cheng Yuanjing didn't answer the question. He picked up the cloth that Cheng Yujin had just embroidered, looked back and forth for a while, and naturally changed the topic: "these words are the worst for you. It looks like a model when they are embroidered. There shouldn't be much left? "

"Yes." Cheng Yujin nodded along with his words, "the most difficult part has been embroidered, and the rest is just a few more days."

Cheng Yuanjing rubs the handwriting on the embroidery sample. He doesn't care much about foreign things, but beautiful things naturally make people like them. He is extremely satisfied with Cheng Yujin's screen.

"Your progress is much faster than planned. There is no need to rush in time."

"I understand." Cheng Yujin rubbed her wrist and raised her head to smile at Cheng Yuanjing. "Uncle Xie cares."

Care? Who cares about her. Cheng Yuanjing put down the embroidery and sat on the other side coldly.

Although Cheng Yujin said that she was not in a hurry, she was very interested in embroidering the screen. If it was too late, it would be better to finish the embroidery as soon as possible. She went on for several days and finally finished the last word.

Cheng Yujin hasn't been so happy for a long time. As soon as she put down her needle and thread, she didn't have time to loosen her stiff neck, so she called Du Ruo: "Du Ruo, is uncle Jiu there?"

Du Ruo rushed in from the outside and said, "it's raining today. I haven't heard Jiu Ye go out."

Cheng Yujin found out that it was raining outside. Spring rain is rare. Cheng Yujin stands up and loosens her muscles and bones. She says, "take the screen off the embroidery frame, and I'll take it to Uncle Jiu."

"Girl, the screen hasn't been washed yet."

Because embroidery is often held in the hands of people, it is inevitable that it will be rubbed black and stolen, so it is only after washing water that it can be seen by outsiders. However, Cheng Yujin couldn't wait so long, and said, "it's OK. Uncle Jiu doesn't know how many times he's seen it. Does he still care about the black? Just take it down and we'll take it with us. "

Cheng Yujin ran to Chenming courtyard, but as soon as she entered, she found a pair of rain gear under the eaves. Cheng Yujin stopped for a moment, and the servant reported: "big girl, editor Lin is in it."

Lin Qingyuan? Cheng Yujin didn't realize that she was the first to get upset, as if she was upset by someone. But soon, her rational line, immediately analyzed that this is simply a good time.

The people inside had heard the news, and a Qingyue voice rang out: "Cheng Yujin? Come in

The servant girl takes off her shoes and changes into a new one. As expected, Cheng Yuanjing and Lin Qingyuan sat opposite each other to cook tea. The place they were in was a pavilion, separated by a pure wood Wanzi moon door, which formed its own space. Through the wooden partition door, you can see a one foot high platform with a cushion on it, a tea table in the middle and two tall row windows on the side, which can be completely removed. At the moment, when you cook tea in the rain, the fragrance of tea is winding around the wooden pavilion, which is indescribably elegant.

Cheng Yuanjing looks back at her and waves to her. Cheng Yujin naturally walked over, folded up her skirt and knelt down beside Cheng Yuanjing.

"Uncle nine."

"What's the matter?"

Cheng Yujin came here on a rainy day. It's not a whim.

Cheng Yuanjing's expectation is not bad. Cheng Yujin smiles and says, "Uncle Jiu, I've done it."

"Oh? So fast? " Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Du Ruo, who was holding the brocade box on one side. His smile was clear in his eyes. "Brought it here?"

Cheng Yujin nods. Looking at Lin Qingyuan, she hesitates. With the coming of the Millennium Festival, all the governments are preparing their gifts and hiding them from others. It's enough to see that Cheng Yichun's house is the bottom screen of Qingyuan's house

Cheng Yuanjing just guessed Cheng Yujin's mind at a glance. He said, "it's OK. Lin Qingyuan can believe it."

Lin Qingyuan still remembers the eldest miss of the Cheng family. When he heard this, he said with a smile, "what did the eldest Miss prepare that I could not see?"

"Where does Lin edit it?" Cheng Yujin gives Lin Qingyuan an apology while sitting, and then says to Du Ruo, "take it out and have a look at it for uncle Jiu and Lin's editor."

Du Ruo joins hands with another servant girl and slowly opens the screen. Lin Qingyuan was really surprised when he saw it. He couldn't help but go down to the ground and look at the needle and thread trend up close: "double sided embroidery It's still a different kind of double-sided embroidery. I think this kind of skill has been lost. "

Lin Qingyuan looked at Cheng Yujin strangely: "this It turns out that... "

Cheng Yujin nodded with a smile: "it's embroidered by a little girl. It's vulgar. Please don't laugh at it."

Vulgar? Cheng Yuanjing smiles and glances at Cheng Yujin, thinking clearly about her care. Cheng Yujin also glared and motioned him not to dismantle the platform.

Standing on the ground, Lin Qingyuan didn't notice the lawsuit between his uncle and nephew. He praised them more and more: "it's true! On the one hand, Fu and landscape are ingenious! The front is Jingxing's handwriting, right? No wonder the young lady came to Jing Xing to learn to write last time. "Lin Qingyuan was so excited that he could hardly speak. At last, he had to bow his hands to the two people on the seat: "good handwriting, good literary talent, good embroidery!"

Cheng Yujin couldn't help laughing, and a bright light flashed in her eyes. She rarely has such a little daughter state, Cheng Yuanjing eyes also floating light smile.

After several months of hard work, Cheng Yujin asked Du Ruo to close the screen carefully. Cheng Yuanjing saw it and said, "just stay with me. Tomorrow I'll ask people to look for good wood for mounting."

"Good." Cheng Yujin can't help reminding, "I've been holding it every day these few months, and the cloth has been rubbed. Uncle Jiu, don't forget to wash it."

Have to wash again, Cheng Yuanjing reluctantly should be: "I know."

Lin Qingyuan was very excited when he saw this scene. He said: "Jingxing is not patient. He is impatient to hear people say long words. At the beginning, I didn't know how many people offered him a kiss, but he refused one by one. I thought he was really impatient with women. Now it seems that it is not all

It's a strange thing that Cheng Yuanjing hasn't married yet. Cheng Yujin's eyes turned and suddenly asked, "does editor Lin have a family?"

Lin Qingyuan shook his head and said, "no, I'm lonely and happy."

It's too late for Cheng Yuanjing to stop him. Cheng Yujin takes the opportunity to ask, "editor Lin, the number one scholar in high school, is young and promising. Why don't you get married?"

"My family lives in Jinan, my parents are far away from home, and I am the only one in the capital. If there is no elder, it will come down naturally. "

Cheng Yujin said with a smile: "the editor actually lives alone in the capital. Fortunately, there are close people around to take care of him. Otherwise, he would be too quiet."

This time, Lin Qingyuan shook his head more firmly: "no, there are ancestral precepts in the family. A man can't marry until he is less than 20 years old. He can't take a concubine until he is 40 years old. I don't have a concubine by my side. I don't have any intimate people. It's just the bookboy. "

Cheng Yuanjing clearly saw Cheng Yujin's eyes brighten, and her face suddenly changed. Cheng Yuanjing suddenly felt a sense of crisis. He knew that this time, Cheng Yujin was really moved.
