Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 482 There is a girl Jiao'e here
As Liang's father's official position in Beijing became more stable, Liang Xiankuan's voice in the clan became more and more powerful, and he became more and more busy.I have to take care of my studies here, and I have to take care of affairs over there. I can't wait to grow superhuman.Du Jinning always designs gardens once or twice a month, and it's not a special case. She doesn't want to bother Liang Xiankuan at all.

Liang Xiankuan thought about the unfinished homework assigned by his teacher, sighed, and said, "Okay then."

Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan went home for dinner and rested for half an hour, then met at the door and took a carriage to the east of the city together.Along with them was Liang Manchang, the steward of the Liang family.

"Uncle Liang, who is that family? Why would you rather pay [-]% more for me to do it? My fourth sister's garden design is not bad, and I will always design it until they are satisfied." Du Jinning asked puzzled.

Liang Manchang was also very puzzled: "This family's surname is Lin, and it's not a powerful family, but it has some family background. Master Lin has made a lot of money in business over the years. Maybe he wants to be arty."

Du Jinning smiled and shook his head.

After a meal, the carriage stopped in front of a courtyard.

When they got out of the car, they saw a few people coming out from the door, the leader was a fat middle-aged man, he smiled and cupped his hands as soon as they met, and said: "My surname is Lin, I have met Du Xianggong." He looked at Qi Muyuan and asked, "This is..."

Liang Manchang hurriedly introduced Qi Muyuan's identity.

When Master Lin heard that Qi Muyuan was the grandson of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, his eyes lit up immediately, and his attitude became more enthusiastic. He said, "You two have come from a long way, why don't you go in and have a cup of tea and rest before you get busy."

Impatient with wasting time, Du Jinning directly refused: "No need, let's go directly to the garden."

Seeing this, Mr. Lin couldn't force himself, so he welcomed several people in and introduced the situation of the garden as he walked.

This is the old garden of the Lin family. There are mountains and water inside, but the scenery is not exquisite enough, half of which are planted with many fruit trees.Master Lin had money in his hand, so he planned to rebuild it, and it would be more face-saving to treat guests to dinner.

A group of people walked to the edge of a bamboo forest, and suddenly heard the sound of "ding ding dong dong". Du Jinning stopped when he heard it, and asked Master Lin, "Is there still people living in this garden?"

Master Lin didn't seem to hear the voice at first, he was taken aback when he heard this, and listened intently, then asked his housekeeper: "Who is there?"

The housekeeper of the Lin family said: "Maybe it's the young master. The old slave saw him here this morning."

Master Lin smiled at Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan: "Maybe it's a dog. He is also a scholar, but his qualifications are not good. He only got a child at the age of 20. He has always admired you two very much. I think he is playing the piano." He gestured forward, "Your Excellency, please."

Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan looked at each other, and followed Master Lin to continue walking.

Turning the corner, the scenery in front suddenly opened up, and a gazebo that was blocked by bushes appeared in front of everyone, and the sound of the piano became clearer and clearer.A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in a pomegranate red dress was sitting in the pavilion playing the piano intently, as if she hadn't noticed Master Lin and his party; He didn't dare to make a sound, just bowed to this side, and then stood there with his hands down.

Master Lin didn't make a sound, he stood there and listened intently, as if carefully discerning whether the girl's piano sound had improved.Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan also had to stand there and wait.

Fortunately, the girl's piano sound gradually faded, and stopped after a while.

Putting down her hands and raising her head, she seemed to realize that Mr. Lin and his party were standing there, she stood up quickly, ran two steps with a smile, and called out: "Daddy."

When she said these two words, she was surprised to find that there were still two strange teenagers standing beside her father. Here is a blessing: "I don't know that Daddy has guests, my daughter is rude." The words are shy and the voice is sweet.

Master Lin laughed "haha", and said to Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan: "You two gentlemen, I'm sorry. I think I didn't expect a foreign guest to play the piano here, disturbing the quietness of the two of you. I'm really sorry gone."

"It's okay, it's okay." Du Jinning smiled, "Master Lin, since there are family members here in your garden, we can't disturb you, so let's take our leave." He cupped his hands, turned around with Qi Muyuan and walked back.

A look of disappointment flashed across Mr. Lin's face, he winked at his daughter, followed a few steps and said to Du Jinning: "Your Excellency, since you are here, please finish the garden, I will ask my daughter to avoid you."

Ms. Lin also hurried forward a few steps, getting closer to Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan, biting her lips and saluting with tears in her eyes: "You two, please stay. I thought no one would come to the garden today, so I came here to relax and practice." Qin, it's my fault, I'll leave now." She saluted, took two steps back, turned around and left quickly.

Her maid and mother-in-law hurriedly followed her with Qin in her arms.

"Du Xianggong, Qi Xianggong." Master Lin said apologetically, "This is my youngest daughter. She has been studying piano with Master Chen Xin for five or six years. Sometimes she comes to this garden to practice piano and read books. Today is also my negligence. I didn't inform her, she didn't know we were coming. If there is any impoliteness, please look at Haihan."

"This is your home, there's nothing wrong with her playing the piano here. We came here recklessly." Du Jinning smiled, and didn't say anything about leaving.

Master Lin breathed a sigh of relief; "No, no, no, it's because I didn't let anyone tell her, I was negligent." He patted his head with self-reproach, then smiled shyly and made a forward gesture, " Your Excellency, please."

Du Jinning nodded, and followed Master Lin to finish the garden.

Fortunately, until the entire garden was gone, Miss Lin was never seen again.

After watching the garden, Master Lin tried his best to persuade Du Jinning and the two to have dinner here, saying: "I still have some requests to tell Du Xianggong."

Generally, if there are any requests, they are put forward casually when looking at the terrain, instead of saying later, Du Jinning felt strange and refused: "No, we still have something to do, and we are in a hurry to go back. If you have any requests, you can talk to Butler Liang Say, he'll tell me."

As she said that, she said to Liang Manchang: "Uncle Liang, you will be troubled, stay here for a while. Let's go back first." As she spoke, she bowed to Master Lin, and then left with Qi Muyuan.

After getting into the carriage, she said to Qi Muyuan: "You said that in two days, the matchmaker will come to your house or my house to propose marriage?"

In the past two years, they have encountered this situation more than once.This master Lin's intentions can naturally be seen at a glance.

　If the schedule cannot be adjusted, the update time may not be on time in the past few days, please forgive me.
