Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 747
An Shi's eyes lit up suddenly.

Although he did use his qin to show his ambition just now, but ordinary people can only hear the gurgling of spring water and the chirping of birds, and feel that their hearts are broad-minded, and they realize that it is he who puts his love on the mountains and rivers.But so far, there is only one person who can accurately hear what he thinks in his heart and point out the words he wants to express like Du Jinning.

The young man in front of him, whose appearance and temperament are both superior to him, if not his piano skills are superb, or his mind is so clear that he can see everything.Or maybe both.

He sighed deeply: "It's an honor for An Shi to be able to play the piano for the young master."

This turn of his is different from the previous turn.The previous turn was forced by the situation, and he had to bow to Du Jinning; but now, he is sincerely convinced.

Du Jinning nodded slightly, and looked at Yao Shuqi: "Steward Yao, has a corner of the garden been built? Is the yard there suitable for people?"

"Yes, it has been built and is ready for people to live in." Yao Shuqi said hastily.

"Then let Anshi live there."

As he said that, Du Jinning looked at An Shi: "I think you have some money on hand, I suggest you buy two servants right now. It's too desolate for you to live in such a big garden. And..."

She glanced at An Shi's hands: "The luthier's hands need to be maintained, and someone has to do the rough work of washing and cooking for you."

An Shi bowed deeply gratefully: "Thank you, Young Master, for thinking about the villain."

He was raised as a celebrity in the Chu Pavilion, and has been taken care of by servants since he was a child. He really doesn't know how to wash and cook.Du Jinning said that his hands need maintenance, just to save face for him.

In addition, he has stayed in the Chu Pavilion for so many years, so he has some savings.Now that life is settled, it is really not difficult to spend some money to buy two or three servants.

He also understood Du Jinning's intention to let him buy the man himself.If Du Jinning assigned his servants to him, he would definitely suspect that Du Jinning used these servants to monitor and imprison him.But it's different when he buys people himself.The body deed is in his hands, and the monthly payment of the servants is also taken from him. These people are his people, there is no surveillance or imprisonment, and he is free to call these servants.

"Of course, if you think it's necessary, you can ask Butler Yao to arrange two servants for you. You can discuss this with Butler Yao." Du Jinning said, holding up the teacup.

"Yes, the villain will leave." An Shi hurriedly picked up the piano and saluted Du Jinning.

Yao Shuqi said: "If the young master has no other orders, I will go and arrange for An Shi."

"Go." Du Jinning stood up and walked out of the yard.

She went back to the small courtyard where she lived, rubbed the ink slowly, and wrote a line: "Don't be surprised by favor or shame, just watch the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court; stay with no intention, follow the clouds and clouds in the sky."

This pair of couplets comes from Chen Jiru's "Small Window" and Hong Yingming's "Cai Gen Tan" in the Ming Dynasty. It is very suitable for comfort because of the peaceful and indifferent state of mind.

When the ink was dry, she told Aoki: "Send it to An Shi."

"Yes." Aoki rolled up the paper, put it in a shaft, and sent it to the comfortable new residence in the garden.

This matter is just that Du Jinning saw An Shi and listened to a piece of his piano, and he felt something in his heart. Then he remembered such a sentence, wrote such a word, and gave it to An Shi. That's all, it doesn't have any deep meaning .After delivering the letter, she put the matter behind her and continued to inspect the fields.

On the other side of Qi Muyuan, although he was pondering Du Jinning's words all the way, he didn't dare to delay the slightest delay in the itinerary, so he hurried on, and finally managed to enter the city before the city gate was closed.

"Master, are you back? The old man has asked me a few times." The porter trotted into the door with Qi Muyuan, and approached Qi Muyuan to pass a sentence.

"Understood." Qi Muyuan strode in, with long legs and long feet, and soon turned behind the screen wall, out of sight.

Guanqi took out a small handful of copper plates and sent the porter away, and followed closely.

If the concierge didn't deliver the message, Qi Muyuan planned to go back to his courtyard to freshen up, change clothes, and then go to pay his respects to his grandfather.But after the concierge delivered the message, he didn't go back, but went directly to Qi Bokun's place.

Qi Bokun also guessed that Qi Muyuan would come back at this time and was waiting in the hall.

Seeing his grandson coming in hurriedly and saluting him, he said softly, "Okay, you've been riding for a day, are you tired? Sit down quickly."

When Qi Muyuan sat down on his lower head, he raised his hand, and some servants brought hot water and towels one after another to wash Qi Muyuan's face and hands.

The old lady of the Qi family passed away ten years ago, and Qi Bokun never remarried, but there was a concubine by his side.This old aunt had no children, she was also quiet, she never caused trouble, and Qi Bokun didn't mean to flatter her, so she didn't have much sense of presence in the Qi residence.

Because of the old aunt, Qi Bokun's yard has always had maids.

It was two servant girls who brought water to Qi Muyuan just now.

Qi Muyuan never cared about these things, but Guanqi took a look at the two maids.

He had never seen these two maids before, and they should have entered the mansion only two days ago.What made him feel a little bit was that these two maids were extremely pretty in appearance, one was dignified and quiet, the other lively and lovely.This is a bit abnormal.

You know, Qi Bokun has never liked maids or servants who are too beautiful.He thinks that such a person is easy to attract bees and butterflies and cause trouble.He was tired enough with politics, and he wanted to relax and be comfortable when he got home, and he didn't want to have to deal with troubles.

But now, beautiful maids have entered the old man's yard, and there are still two of them, so I can't help watching chess without thinking too much.

He raised his eyes and looked at his young master.But upon seeing this, he was stunned.

Qi Muyuan didn't know whether he was influenced by his mother or was born like this, he avoided the beautiful servant girl even more than Qi Bokun.Usually, he doesn't let his maid serve him in his own yard; but when he goes to pay his respects to his mother Su, when a maid shows courteousness to him, he is often embarrassed by his indifference and indifference—no matter how beautiful the other party is, he never looks directly at her. They are completely winking for the blind.

But what do you see when watching chess now?
Although Qi Muyuan was washing his hands at this time, his mind was obviously not on washing his hands, but was staring at the hands of the maid carrying the basin.

Guanqi followed Qi Muyuan's gaze, and saw that maid's slender fingers, white skin, fingers like onion roots, and really beautiful hands.

It was the elegant servant girl who served the water, seeing the young master's gaze attracted by her own beautiful hands, she was secretly happy while being shy.

The other lively one was unwilling to see this, so he quickly put the cloth towel in his hand into the basin, and asked Qi Muyuan, "Young Master, how about I give you a handkerchief to wipe your face?"

It can be said that Qi Bokun took great pains to straighten his grandson.He specially asked the old aunt to buy two beautiful maids to come in, just hoping that these maids would be able to climb into Qi Muyuan's bed and give birth to grandchildren for the Qi family.Maybe Qi Muyuan became normal after tasting a woman?
Seeing Qi Muyuan staring at the maid's hand at this moment, he was overjoyed. Before Qi Muyuan could refuse, he said, "Yes, twist the handkerchief and wipe your face. There was a lot of dust along the way, and it was very dirty."

Hey, this kid finally got the hang of it.
