Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 27
The two venues are close to each other, and the screen curtains are surrounded by peach blossom trees.Surrounded by screen curtains, from time to time laughter and music of silk and bamboo orchestras can be heard from various screen curtains.

In fact, it is not quiet.

Many women put on veiled hats and ran around under the protection of maids and servants.In the flat open space in the distance, there are children flying kites.

The peach groves on several hilltops are very lively.

As soon as Zhao Xiuyuan sat down, he quickly asked Chang Yu to take out a stack of Xue Tao notes.

To come out and write poems, Xue Taojian, the most popular in recent years, is naturally indispensable.Xue Tao paper is delicate, well cut, with a faint fragrance and special patterns, which is most suitable for writing poems.

Changyu was busy moving the small red clay stove, teapot, grilling net, and all kinds of snacks.

Ning Yong didn't sit down, but smiled slightly: "I'll go for a walk."

It is said that they are enjoying flowers and composing poems, but in fact, few people actually compose poems.Zheng Kaoxian is somewhat talented, but he is not good at composing poetry.And Shijia Saburo is best at writing poems that satirize the imperial court.Since he wrote that shocking poem a long time ago, everyone has unanimously decided that Shi Sanlang will not be asked to write another poem in the future.

Zhao Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Brother Ning Yong, don't go too far away." He was still waiting for Ning Yong to write a poem, and borrowed it for reference.

Ning Yong smiled slightly, and walked out of the screen together with Zhou Quan.

But it was a coincidence that after stepping out of the screen curtain, he saw Mei Ran, the maidservant beside Zhao Jinyi.

Ning Yong winked at Zhouquan.

Zhao Jinyi was sitting in the barrier, thinking about how to send a message to Ning Yong, when Mei Ran walked in nervously: "Girl."

Mei Ran clung to Zhao Jinyi's ear and whispered a few words.

Zhao Jinyi's complexion suddenly became more beautiful than the peach blossoms all over the mountain.

Ning Yong actually asked her out to meet her in front of the Taolin hut two quarters of an hour later.

Zhao Jinyi was so happy that he almost jumped up.Ning Yong actually took the initiative to ask her out!She is not wishful thinking, Ning Yong is also interested in her!
and many more!How did Ning Yong save her from being here?

Mei Ran was a little embarrassed: "Just now, my servant accidentally bumped into Zhouquan, a servant next to Erlang of the Ning family..."

It turned out to be the case.

Zhao Jinyi was so nervous that he took out the small bronze mirror. Just as he was about to adjust his makeup, he suddenly threw the small bronze mirror aside: "Bring the poetry collection."

When I meet Ning Yong later, at least she has to show off the peach blossoms everywhere.

While Zhao Jinyi was holding his feet temporarily, Zheng Kao winked at a few friends in the side barrier, and soon everyone found an excuse to get out of the tent.

Zhao Xiuyuan couldn't sit still originally, but because he was the host this time, he sat patiently all the time.

Changyu continued to carry things, and walked out quickly.

Only then did Zhao Xiuyuan realize that he and the girl disguised as a man were the only ones left in the tent.

Shi Xue'er lowered her head shyly all the time, looking at Zhao Xiuyuan from the corner of her eye.Zhao Xiuyuan is really pretty.She regretted not getting to know Zhao Xiuyuan earlier.Instead, Zheng Kaoxian ate a lot of tofu for nothing.

Zhao Xiuyuan recalled what his sister had told him, so he smiled kindly and politely: "This girl, are you brother Kaoxian's confidante?"

When Shi Xueer heard Zhao Xiuyuan ask her this, she lowered her head like a frightened little rabbit: "You, how did you save me from being..."

Zhao Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Although the girl is wearing a man's clothes, she still can't hide the girl's posture."

In fact, if Zhao Jinyi hadn't said it, he really wouldn't have noticed.After all, Shi Xueer's appearance was not his favorite type.

There is no one around, this is the opportunity her cousin created for her... Shi Xueer gritted her teeth, raised her eyes, and looked at Zhao Xiuyuan with burning eyes: "Erlang Jun, I, I have a crush on you..."

Zhao Xiuyuan looked blank.The two met for the second time, why did Zheng Kaoxian's confidante suddenly change her mind and fell in love with him?
Shi Xue'er stood up recklessly, planning to bravely rush towards Zhao Xiuyuan and cook the raw rice.Just now my cousin and she made a careful plan in the carriage, as long as she and Zhao Xiuyuan get into a ball, the Zhao family, which has always valued face, the most polite and honest, will have to welcome her in.

But Zhao Xiuyuan stood up with a surprised expression: "Yi'er, why did you come in?"

Zhao Jinyi said mockingly: "If I don't come in, I'm afraid my brother will be eaten alive by tigers and wolves without knowing it."

Zhao Xiuyuan looked at Shi Xue'er in a daze, and then at his sister. What Yi'er said was that he was going to be eaten alive by the petite girl in front of him?Impossible?Just now this girl said that she likes him.This girl is not a vixen, she can still suck his blood and eat his bones?

Seeing his brother's confused face, Zhao Jinyi ignored him and only looked at Shi Xue'er, his lips slightly raised: "I don't mind this girl, what should I call her?" Just now she was going to Ning Yong's appointment, but Hearing that Shi Xueer was brazenly confessing her love to Zhao Xiuyuan.She had to leave Ning Yong behind for the time being, and rushed in to prepare to tear the slut apart.But now, she finally understands that Zheng Kaoxian's cousin has a lot of ambitions.No wonder women disguised as men went to visit their Zhao family.The co-author is planning to enter their Zhao family!

Shi Xueer looked at Zhao Jinyi, who was smiling but aggressive, and couldn't help feeling a little scared.Are all the little girls in this big family so powerful?

But after she was afraid, she plucked up her courage again: "Erlang and I were never married, why should I express my love to Erlang?"

Why didn't my cousin rush in to save her!
But he said that Zheng Kao was outside first, and became an ant on the hot pot in a hurry.He is outside, but he dare not go in.Just now, he was listening to an opera outside, but Zhao Jinyi got out from the next door somehow.

Zhao Jinyi gave him a hard look, and he didn't dare to move.This Zhao Jinyi has always been strict with her brother, and they are all good friends.

Zhao Jinyi made another look, and a strong young servant stopped in front of him, baring his teeth viciously at him.He was so frightened that he almost trembled.Changyu, who had gone to get things from the carriage, also came back, seeing the situation, he naturally stood beside his own people, and immediately stopped Zheng Kaoxian together with Changchun.

Zheng Kaoxian was very anxious, but he didn't dare to move at all.Today his cousin came with him, but he didn't bring a servant.How could he, a powerless scholar, push and shove with these rude boys!
Cousin, I'm sorry!I can only blame you for being unlucky, meeting Zhao Jinyi, the little Rakshasa of the Zhao family!

Zhao Jinyi sneered: "I see, girl, you don't just want to confess your love? Do you want to do something else?"

Shi Xueer suddenly calmed down.She hadn't done anything just now, when Zhao Erlang's younger sister barged in.What's so scary about her?At worst, I will go back to be a concubine for my cousin.

Thinking of this, Shi Xue'er also smiled: "Girl, did you see what I did? Under the blue sky and broad daylight, why don't you just bully me, a little girl from a foreign country, with red mouth and white teeth because of my family's great fortune."

After Zhao Jinyi heard this, he almost wanted to applaud Shi Xueer.This Shi Xue'er is indeed a relative of the Zheng family's third mother, and she is also eloquent with her mouth.

Zhao Xiuyuan was listening in a daze.Although I don't understand what happened, this girl was brought by Zheng Kaoxian after all, and she didn't do anything excessive, she just confessed her love to him.The little ladies who confessed to him in the capital are all gone, if they hold on to all of them, wouldn't the Zhao family offend everyone else?The younger sister usually understands righteousness the most, why is she confused today.

So he quickly smoothed things over: "I misunderstood, I misunderstood. Hey, the peach blossoms are blooming just right. How about a cup of peach blossom stuffing? Changyu, Changyu!"

Confused Zhao Xiuyuan!Zhao Jinyi was so angry that he wanted to turn around and leave.
