Chen Caozhi bowed to Lu Weirui and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, little lady Weirui, I can't play the recorder for you today."
Lu Weirui said: "It's okay, I came here specially to see you. Today is your birthday. You have been writing "Kaifeng" for so long. Do you miss your mother very much? When you write it over and over again, I also think of mine.
Mother, I’m crying.” After that, he smiled shyly, stood up and said, “Then I’m going back, come to my garden on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.”
Chen Cao said: "Would you like to eat a bowl of leek leaf water cake and then go back?" As soon as the words came out, he felt that something was wrong.
Unexpectedly, Lu Weirui opened his eyes wide and asked: "Have you prepared so many water-infused cakes? The short hoe is also here, as well as a coachman and two government servants."
Ran Sheng said: "Let the cook cook it again. There will be plenty of noodles. The more people who eat water biscuits on their birthdays, the more blessed they will be." He strode off.
Gu Kaizhi of the Wei Association also came and talked with Xu Zao in the main hall of the thatched cottage.
Lu Weirui asked Chen Caozhi: "Chen Langjun, can I ask Mr. Wei for advice on painting skills? When I came out, I told my father that I came to ask Mr. Wei for advice."
Chen Cao said: "Master Wei is a very easy-going person. It should be okay. You can come with me."
Lu Weirui asked her maid to go to the oxcart with a hoe to get the painting, and followed Chen Caozhi to the main hall of the thatched cottage to pay tribute to Xu Zao and the Wei Association.
That day at Zhenqing Taoist Temple, Wei Xie saw this pure and beautiful girl. When he learned that she was the famous Lu family nymphomaniac, he couldn't help but smile. He looked at Gu Kaizhi next to him and thought to himself: "This Jiangdong nymphomaniac is really good.
Marriage, Gu, the two Lu clans have not been in contact with each other for three generations, wouldn't it be great if they could form a marriage relationship!"
Gu Kaizhi followed his family motto closely and refused to talk to any of the Lu family's children when he met them, nor did he look at them seriously, because Gu Kaizhi's great uncle, Gu Rong, who was known as one of the three heroes of Jiangdong together with Lu Ji and Lu Yun, was once killed by Lu Ji's
He was humiliated by his younger brother Lu Wan. Lu Wan said that Gu Rong led the northern nobles to cross the river and harmed the interests of the Wu people. The Gu family was a sinner in Jiangdong. From then on, the Gu and Lu families became enemies. And this Lu Wan was Lu Na's father, Lu Weirui.
Ancestor.
Wei Xie unfolded Lu Weirui's drawing and took a look at it, then asked: "The young lady of the Lu family studied under Zhang Mo and Zhang Andao?"
Lu Weirui was a little worried and responded: "Yes, Mr. Zhang Mo comes here every six months to guide me for half a month."
Wei Xie said with a smile: "It's not that I have any prejudice against Zhang Andao. His painting style is very different. Zhang Mo's paintings, however, take elves and leave their bones to paint characters, which is inevitably weird. Painting flowers, birds and trees is just right. Lu
Madam Shi’s paintings are very good, and she has a lot of energy. I don’t have anything to teach you.”
Being rejected by the Health Association, Lu Weirui was a little embarrassed and looked at Chen Caozhi as if asking for help.
Chen Caozhi whispered: "Master Wei has seen your painting. I will ask his opinion another day and then tell you, okay?"
Lu Weirui curved her lips and smiled, thinking it was interesting to ask for advice in such a roundabout way.
It was a big event that Lu's girl wanted to eat leek leaf water cakes at Xu's school. Xu Zao had no female dependents here, so he had no one to accompany him, so he had to let Liu Shangzhi's maid Gillian accompany Lu Weirui and the short hoe master
The two maidservants ate leek leaf water cakes, and the driver and servants of the Lu family also ate two large bowls each.
Lu Weirui couldn't stay outside for too long. After eating Shuiyin cake, Chen Caozhi took her to the bullock cart to prepare for her return.
Chen Caozhi followed the bullock cart for a ride around the lake, then stopped and waved goodbye, but saw the little maid running over with a hoe, came to him and said: "Chen Langjun, my little lady asks you to carve a carving at noon tomorrow."
The Taoist temple is waiting for her, she wants to see you." After that, he turned around and trotted back.
"What does it feel like to think about the next time we meet before we say goodbye?"
Chen Caozhi shook his head and felt that he should not think about this. He was by no means inferior, but he also knew how big the difficulty was and it was completely beyond what he could bear now. He must be cautious, otherwise Chu Jian would not need to harm him, and he would
Pushed myself into a desperate situation.
Ran Sheng came over and said, "Young Master, that dog Ye Zhu is watching again and again. How long are you going to keep this guy? I feel unwilling to let him go without using him for a while."
Chen Caozhi raised his eyebrows and looked at the twelve-year-old boy in front of him with some surprise, who was half a head taller than him, and asked: "Xiao Sheng, how do you think we should use him?"
Ran Sheng was young and didn't know how to think about Chen Caozhi and Lu Weirui, so he said: "This dog just wants to find out about Xiao Langjun. If there is any trouble, he will report it to the person named Chu. Why don't we let him report it?"
Go ahead and make fun of the man named Chu. Isn’t that what you want to do if you keep this Ye Zhu?"
Chen Caozhi smiled and said: "Xiao Sheng, you are very smart. Why does Run'er call you stupid?"
Ran Sheng stammered: "That's, that's because Miss Run'er is smarter than me."
Chen Caozhi laughed and said: "When I think about it, I can't make Chu Jian angry so as not to get burned, but I also want to give Chu a little lesson, so that he can't tell the story of the pain of eating coptis."
Chen Caozhi walked slowly back to the thatched cottage from the lakeside. He suddenly smiled and explained to Ran Sheng. Ran Sheng smiled and nodded repeatedly.
So, in the evening of that day, the dedicated spy Ye Zhu discovered an important piece of news. Lu Qin, the husband of the Lu family, was very angry with Chu Wenbin for some reason. He said that Chu Wenbin had humiliated him but had not apologized to him for a long time. His uncle Lu Na was too generous and did not want to
However, Lu Qin couldn't swallow this breath, and when he planned to return to Jiankang at the end of the year, he told his father Lu Shi——
Chu Wenbin quickly learned of this important bad news and did not dare to come to Xu's Cottage to listen to the lecture the next day. Since the last time he wanted to use Lu Qin to deal with Chen Caozhi, but Chen Caozhi broke it, Lu Qin
He always treated him coldly, causing several other gentry children to pay little attention to Chu Wenbin. Ding Chunqiu from the same county did not pay attention to him because of the estrangement between Ding and Chu. Chu Wenbin was very isolated and did not dare to talk to him.
He told his father about this, thinking that after a while Lu Qin would forget about it and the matter would be settled. But now hearing what Ye Zhu said, Chu Wenbin couldn't help but panic. Yes, Lu Qin is so arrogant.
Chen Caozhi often comes to the Lu Mansion. I heard that yesterday the Lu nymphomaniac went to the Xu Academy to ask for advice on painting skills from the Wei Association and ate Shuiyin cakes. This news should have been told by Lu Weirui, and there is no mistake.
Chu Wenbin scratched his head and thought for a long time, but he had no solution. This matter was not something he could solve. In desperation, he had no choice but to confess to his father Chu Jian. Chu Jian wanted to give this scoundrel a slap in the face, but at least it was
Gentlemen should pay attention to their demeanor, and should keep their emotions and angers hidden. After closing their eyes and adjusting their breath for a long time, they suppressed the urge to beat their sons and said slowly: "I warned you not to act rashly, but what did you do? Do it?"
If you made a mistake, you should have tried every means to recover it at that time. Do you think you can solve the problem by procrastinating?"
Chu Wenbin was dejected and did not dare to speak out.
Chu Jian said: "That's all Lu accepts. But Lu Qin's father, Lu Shiguan, is the Minister of the Fifth Army. He has a high and powerful position, and he protects his shortcomings. If you don't ask for Lu Qin's forgiveness, I'm afraid your future career will be hopeless."
When Chu Jian said this, he felt it sounded familiar, and he suddenly remembered that he had previously planned a conflict between Lu Qin and Chen Caozhi, but he did not expect that it would eventually fall on his son.
Chu Wenbin said calmly: "My son wanted to apologize to Lu Qian, but he ignored me at all."
Chu Jian said: "I can't come forward in this matter. If I come forward, the matter will become serious. You juniors will solve it by yourselves. Isn't Mr. He of Kuaiji a good friend of you? He is also a first-class nobleman. Please invite Lu Qin to the Fangyuan wine shop.
Lu Qin is young, as long as you apologize nicely, the feud should be resolved. You can put the blame on Chen Caozhi, but you don't need me to teach you what to say, right?"
In the afternoon, Chu Wenbin showed up at Xu's school again. After school, he invited Mr. He from Kuaiji, who also liked to apply powder and incense, to the Fangyuan wine shop to drink and listen to music. Mr. He was very happy. The bartender at the Fangyuan wine shop was
The most famous among the wine shops and pavilions in Wu County, he immediately went to invite Lu Qin. Lu Qin was happy to go at first, but later he became furious when he heard that Chu Wenbin had bought the wine as a gift. He thought that Chu Wenbin had made those things right.
He Zhu mentioned that he, Lu Qin, was almost deceived and used by Chu Wenbin. This was a very shameful thing. Ya didn't want others to know, and she didn't plan to tell her father Lu Shi. She just wanted to find an opportunity to humiliate Chu Wenbin once in the future.
stop.
Lu Qin's face was livid, and the ox cart drove away, but He Zhu didn't care so much. Lu Qin didn't want to go, but he wanted to go. Chu Wenbin had no choice but to offend He Zhu, so he and He Zhu went to Fangyuan Restaurant.
He Zhu was having a wild and playful banter with the charming wine girl. Chu Wenbin was worried in his heart, but he had to force a smile on his face. What he drank was not wine, but bitter water.
