Tan He doesn't read many books, and he often hears girls recite poems and talk about them. At this moment, a sentence suddenly appears in his mind.
It is like a zhi orchid and jade tree, which wants to make it grow on the courtyard steps.
It was still Qin's mother who was very knowledgeable. Although she was surprised that Mr. Xiao was so young, she smiled:
Why don’t you see Mr. Xiao’s seat and serve tea.
Xiao Jing gave in and sat down in the nanmu ring chair at the bottom. The girl brought up the newly brewed tea. He drank it in a pastel colored stone green official kiln cover bowl. As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was as gentle as jade, and he was as gentle as he was:
Good tea, the snow buds of the silver mountain, are indeed worthy of the word "excellent".
Qin's mother couldn't help but look at him a few more times. She was dissatisfied with the Cheng family's attendant, but the more she talked to him, the more she felt she was more and more disgusted.
It turned out that at that time, scholars mostly focused on the imperial examinations. Those who were willing to be Western Conferences either failed or old Confucian scholars, and had no industry at home, so they needed to rely on high-ranking families.
But Xiao Jing was young and had a proper conversation and attitude. He saw the Qin family's wealth and honor, and he seemed to be ignorant and very calm.
Thinking that Cheng Hai also praised Xiao Jing in the letter, and said that he had acquaintance with his gentleman and was also helpful in official business. Qin's mother originally had some complaints about Yu Shu's age and still had to be with a young man every day, but she said:
In the future, my granddaughter's schoolwork will rely more on the teacher.
Xiao Jing smiled faintly: The old lady is so polite. Miss Cheng is talented and can only point out a few points from the side. How can the word "reliance" come from?On the contrary, in the next country, I feel sorry for being so beautiful as the old lady and Cheng Gong.
Upon hearing this, Qin's mother became more and more happy and asked again: Has the sir's house been resettled?There are not many other things in our house, and there are all empty houses. The teacher wants to teach my granddaughter how to study, and he lives in an outer courtyard, which is also cheaper.
Xiao Jing said: I am a person from the capital, and I also have houses in the capital. Thank you for your worries.
However, Qin's mother tried to keep him and asked him to send him a few servants whom she usually ordered. It was not until Xiao Jing repeatedly refused and gave up.
After saying some gossip, Xiao Jing quit.Qin's mother sat on the long bed of the red sandalwood carved Fulu and Lu double stars, but she didn't say anything for a long time.
She didn't say anything, and everyone in the room didn't dare to say a word. After a while, Tan Hefang spoke carefully: Is the old lady tired?If you are tired, just be tilted for a while.
Qin's mother seemed to wake up from a dream and waved her hand: It's okay... Mr. Xiao always feels kind-hearted...
The second half of the sentence was extremely low, and only Tan He could hear it.
The next day, Qin's mother had already ordered the inner study to be cleaned up for Yushu. A clamped tunnel next to it led directly to the two doors, so that Xiao Jing could enter and exit without causing him to hit the female family in the inner courtyard.
Yushu took the hand of Ling Bo, the big maid beside her, and four or five little girls and women came here slowly.
In the study, the tables, chairs and screens were all decorated. She sat down behind the screen, and the table where Xiao Jing taught was on the other side.
In this way, the teacher will not be able to see the lady's appearance, and can also teach you to preach.
As soon as she winked, Ling Bo smiled and said: Moms have worked hard. The girl doesn’t like too many people to disturb her when she is studying. I will serve her here. Moms will go to the corridor to have tea.
After saying that, he grabbed a handful of money and put it into the hands of the leading woman. The women were so happy that they smiled and agreed to go.
Ling Bo sent away the remaining two little girls, and returned to Yushu and stood behind him.
There was a Western-style enamel clock in the corner of the study. The pendulum could not stop ringing. Suddenly, the master and servant both jumped in their hearts. The hour hand pointed to the middle of the year, and a slender and powerful hand raised the bead curtain. The man's voice was faint, with a smile, but it seemed that people could not resist:
The girl is here?
OK, then please ask the girl to wear a loose dress.
