Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 545 Human nature
In the main courtyard of the west courtyard, there is a small corner courtyard in front of the west ear room. Few people pass by here, so it is very quiet, so it was converted into an inner study.

Different from the large study room in the side hall of the front yard, the two walls of the bookcases are filled with various books, which are neatly divided into five areas: classics, history, philosophy, collections, and miscellaneous.

There is a screen, a treasure cabinet and several rare objects to decorate it. This ear room is worthy of the word "inner" in the name of "inner study".

Although there are large bookcases on two walls filled with various books, it can be said that all of them are collections of books, among which are the old blue-covered thread-bound books copied by Zhou Banxia.

But today, in front of a large desk by the south window, Gu Wenxuan was lightly pressing a corner of rice paper with one hand and writing something with the other.

Zhou Banxia did not turn the pages of the book. She stood aside with a cup in her hands, and cheered from time to time when Gu Wenxuan wrote.

it is good!
At this moment, Gu Wenxuan and Zhou Banxia did not know that many people were studying them today. Of course, they would not be surprised if they knew.

No one doesn't talk about others behind their back. Everyone is talked about behind their back.

Human nature.

Seeing that Zhou Banxia kept repeating the word "good" over and over again, Gu Wenxuan put down his pen and rubbed his wrist as he looked at the rice paper full of words, asking her to quickly change the word and praise him.

"Excellent!"

"anything else?"

"For example?"

"The font is rigorous, well-structured, and has profound skills. The brushstrokes are vigorous and powerful, and the tiny details are lively and lively. It has a unique style, etc."

"Indeed, your writing seems to be interrupted, but in fact, it is coherent. You have already mastered the charm of writing brilliantly. I am so ashamed that I cannot praise you any more, but you have indeed made great progress."

Gu Wenxuan couldn't help laughing and pointed to a chair beside him.

Zhou Banxia saw this and did not shirk responsibility. She sat down directly and saw him tidy up the rice paper on the table and then wash the brush. "Are you not going to continue practicing calligraphy?"

Gu Wenxuan raised his chin towards the window and said, "No need to look at the hourglass. The shutters will need to be hung in two quarters of an hour at most. It's better to wait until after dinner to read."

There is a window guard outside the upper and lower windows.

This window guard is much better and more convenient than straw curtains or cotton curtains. In winter, you only need to hang it up at night and take it down in the morning.

It was almost 3 p.m. when we came back from the main courtyard. The sky was getting darker and the wind was getting stronger. We had to hang up the window guards in advance even before dark.

Naturally, there was no need for him to do the job of window guards himself. After putting the things on the desk back to their original places, Gu Wenxuan immediately took his wife back to the warm room.

Considering that someone did not have a lunch break today, if she were to lie down and take a rest now, she would definitely fall asleep and miss dinner time, so he came up with a new idea.

Play chess.

The game of chess was going back and forth, but the winner had not yet been decided. It gets dark early in winter, and the night covers the earth before dinner time.

Why play Go? Gu Wenxuan quickly touched his belly. As he expected, his wife, who had a strong desire to win, missed the opportunity to meet Zhou Gong in advance.

Similarly, his wife had no time to pay attention to how heavy the snow would be tonight. Less than a quarter of an hour after digesting the meal, she was so sleepy that she even yawned.

As the night deepened, big red lanterns swayed under the eaves. The dim light made it difficult to see what was going on in the courtyard, but it was still easy to tell whether it was snowing or not.

Zhou Banxia pretended not to know Gu Wenxuan's trick and followed his pace, so that he could go to the study room early to complete the study plan for the day and not have to stay up late. She didn't say much, just told Gu Wenxuan not to forget that it must not be later than midnight, but he was still working in the study room and wanted to stay up late.

No matter how many candles you light, it will affect your eyesight. Those who don't occupy the time playing on the computer will not become nearsighted. If you torture your eyes, don't even think about getting glasses now.

As for the fact that there is plenty of light in the villa, you can just go into the study room to read and study. However, unless it is a few days before the scientific examination, it is not necessary.

There is still more than half a year before the provincial examination, why rush...

Gu Wenxuan just listened to Zhou Banxia finish speaking, then he lay down, covered himself with the quilt, and almost started snoring. He didn't know what he was mumbling, and he couldn't hear clearly.

On ordinary days, he would wake up his wife every now and then to ask her what forty, twenty, and sixty meant. Don't think he has a low IQ, because he is the one who is grumbling.

How could he be forty? Even now, he is less than twenty years old. He is not young, but too young. I just don't know what he is trying to express with his mumbling.

Zhou Banxia had a good sleep, and when she woke up, she found that, very rarely, Gu Wenxuan, who usually woke up earlier than her, was still sleeping.

Although I couldn't hear any movement from the maids and old women outside, the bed curtains and window shades were not drawn, and I couldn't see whether it was dawn or bright outside.

But when she was asleep, the man in her family who was studying late into the night got into bed in the middle of the night. She woke up for a while in a daze, and then went back to sleep.

In addition, he went to the master bathroom to relieve himself. Zhou Banxia thought that based on his sleep schedule over the past month, it should be at least six or seven in the morning by now.

as predicted.

I glanced at the numbers on the alarm clock in the villa's study and it was almost eight o'clock.

Normally, at this time, her husband would have already gotten up. Even if he didn't go out for a morning run or exercise, he would have been reading in the study.

"Awake?" Gu Wenxuan reached out and touched Zhou Banxia's forehead, and stretched out his other hand to her neck, "Head, I didn't dare to hug you when you fell asleep, for fear of pressing on your stomach."

Zhou Banxia understood and raised his head, letting his head rest on his arm. "What time did you go to bed?"

"A quarter after eleven. I was just about to rest and take a hot shower in the bathroom when the night watchman rang. It would have been less than eleven-thirty at the latest if I had gone to bed."

"I told you not to stay up past twelve, but you stayed up until half past eleven. Next time I'll tell you not to stay up past ten. Do you have a midnight snack?"

"Of course there is. As for you, I didn't wake you up because you were sleeping so soundly." Gu Wenxuan gently stroked her belly, "Is my daughter hungry?"

Zhou Banxia smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be more appropriate to ask if your child's mother is hungry? She has no appetite after just waking up, so she has to wait for at least half an hour.

Not busy this morning? Why are you staying in bed so long? Did you suddenly get some inspiration or a breakthrough when you were writing an article last night, or are you tired and want to relax? "

"Both. The most important thing is that you fell asleep last night and ignored me. Normally, you would only turn around and want to stay away from me when the weather is hot, but not when it's cold.

When the weather gets cold, no matter how deep you sleep, you will snuggle into my arms. Last night, you slapped me in disgust. This is a serious problem. I have to reflect on it."

“Are you reflecting, or am I reflecting?”

"Husband and wife are one, so why should there be a distinction between you and me?"

"What's not yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine? You said it. Okay, enough joking. Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

"I can't sleep. Don't worry about my lack of sleep. I did get enough sleep. But you, do you have a lot of things to deal with today? Maybe you can't even take a nap?"
