Don't be tempted, sir
Chapter 46 Uncut Jade
Su Yunze was embarrassed to let Song Xiaoyuan look at his calligraphy and painting, so he gestured for him to sit inside. Shen Yining had been staring at the old peach tree beside the fence. The peach tree was in full bloom, and the pink color was very beautiful.
Song Xiaoyuan said gently, "Go sit under the peach tree!"
Su Yunze was happy. "Not bad! It's just that the wind is a bit strong today. Just sit down and I'll go get some water."
Song Xiaoyuan sat down and saw Shen Yining looking at the peach blossoms above her head and asked, "Do you like it?"
Shen Yining raised his head and replied, "It looks good. I have never planted peach trees in my garden."
Song Xiaoyuan replied, "Because peach trees are prone to caterpillars, they are most numerous when the fruit is ripe! There are so many that they crawl all over the trunk."
Shen Yining shuddered all over, "Oh~ So that's it!"
Song Xiaoyuan got goose bumps on her face when she saw her, and smiled slightly when she felt it was interesting. Su Yunze brought the tea out of the room and looked at the gentle and gentle Lord Song [He is so gentle to Miss Shen! ]
"Ms. Shen, Mr. Song, have some tea! Are you used to drinking ordinary tea leaves?"
Shen Yining took a sip and it tasted slightly bitter, then sweet. He asked, "What kind of tea is this? It tastes like green tea, fresh, but bitter and sweet."
Song Xiaoyuan answered calmly, "Luochun tea is good for quenching thirst."
Su Yunze scratched his head embarrassedly. "This is ordinary tea on the market. I usually drink it to relieve fatigue when I read by lamplight. Haha, Miss Shen, do you want to change to plain water?"
Shen Yining took another sip and said, "No need to bother, it's not bad."
Song Xiaoyuan drank his tea and said calmly, "The spring exam that takes place every three years will begin next month."
Su Yunze replied seriously, "Yes! I am not talented enough to make the list."
Song Xiaoyuan: "I will attend the meeting, but I will not be able to enter the palace examination"
Su Yunze was surprised, "Really? How did Lord Song know?"
Song Xiaoyuan continued, "After I pointed it out last time, I changed a lot, but..."
Su Yunze looked into the distance and said, "As long as I can make the list, even if I'm average, my dream will come true! This is my last exam, and I will go back home after it's over."
Shen Yining noticed that Su Yunze was full of worry and asked, "Why?"
Su Yunze looked at the Luochun tea in his cup and sighed, "Life is a dream, how many times has life gone through autumn? I have been in Beijing for four years. I used all my wealth to rent this small courtyard to prepare for the exam, but I overestimated my ability. It was only after the autumn exam three years ago that I realized that there are always people better than you and there are always mountains better than you! Yuanniang has been waiting for me at home for four years without getting married. She used to write to me once or twice, but now there has been no letter for half a year. I have been alone in this capital, enduring the lonely days and nights. After the spring exam next month, I will go back to make money and marry Yuanniang!"
Shen Yining knew what it felt like to miss someone, so he asked, "Why don't you bring Yuanniang to live with you in the capital?"
Su Yunze felt guilty, "Because my parents and Yuanniang's parents are old, this..."
Shen Yining understood and stopped talking. Song Xiaoyuan didn't know what it meant to miss someone, nor did he know the unbearable feeling of separation when loving someone. He didn't interrupt and just listened.
After a moment of silence, Song Xiaoyuan asked, "I wonder if Mr. Su is willing to give up the spring exam and take the autumn exam instead?"
Su Yunze asked in confusion, "What's the difference?"
Shen Yining replied, "Of course it takes time to carve a rough jade!"
Su Yunze recalled that when he entered the room, Miss Shen called him unpolished jade. Now she also called him unpolished jade carving. He was surprised and said, "Really? Am I an unpolished jade?"
Shen Yining affirmed, "Yes! Lord Song said you are a rough diamond, you must be a rough diamond."
Su Yunze looked at Song Xiaoyuan, "Really? Sir Song!"
Song Xiaoyuan didn't say anything. "Yeah."
Su Yunze happily stood up and bowed, asking, "Master Song, are you willing to carve the raw jade?"
Song Xiaoyuan took a sip of tea and said, "I'm very busy. I don't have time."
Su Yunze put down his hands, the light in his eyes disappeared, "I am sorry for being rude!"
Song Xiaoyuan put down the tea bowl and said, "But my father is free."
Su Yunze raised his head sharply. "Master Cassiae! Is it Master Cassiae?"
Song Xiaoyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "But...my father doesn't know how much you have learned. I came here today just to ask if you are willing to learn a thing or two!"
Su Yunze agreed without hesitation, "Yes, I am willing! I am willing to receive guidance from Master Song and Master Jueming, even if it is just a few words!"
Seeing the wind starting to blow, Song Xiaoyuan stood up and waved his sleeves, "Okay, then I'll trouble you to come to the Song Mansion tomorrow afternoon."
Su Yunze clasped his hands together helplessly, not believing it was true. He nodded repeatedly, "Okay, no need to bother. I am sorry for disturbing you! I would also like to trouble Lord Song and Miss Shen to go there in person."
Shen Yining stood up and waved with a smile. Song Xiaoyuan looked at Yining who was in a good mood at the moment and said, "The wind is blowing, let's go!"
"Okay! Goodbye, Master Su."
Su Yunze said excitedly, "Okay, goodbye Miss Shen! Take care, Lord Song!" He wanted to see them off to the village entrance, but A Wu stopped him and said you're welcome. Su Yunze then stood at the door and saw them off until the four of them disappeared into the distance.
In front of Su Yunze's house is a winding field path. Carriages cannot go up, so people have to walk. In fact, it is just a thatched hut for guarding the fields. Su Yunze said that he could help look after the house while he was studying at night, so he rented the hut at a low price.
Walking in the rapeseed fields, Shen Yining reached out and stroked the golden rapeseed flowers on both sides, and said happily, "Master Song, have you ever been to the fields?"
Song Xiaoyuan behind him said in a gentle voice, "I passed by here when I was on business."
"The wind is blowing, Lord Song! Open your arms!"
The wind was so strong that Song Xiaoyuan couldn't hear clearly and asked, "What?"
Shen Yining turned around and walked behind Song Xiaoyuan, raising their arms like birds spreading their wings freely, their moon-white robes and feather silk shirts fluttering in the wind.
Shen Yining recalled behind Song Xiaoyuan, "In the past, there were mountains full of rapeseed flowers in Yongzhou! Every time the wind blew, I would open my arms and feel like a spring swallow flying in the wind! Lord Song, do you think we are like spring swallows at this moment?"
Song Xiaoyuan did not reply, but followed Shen Yining in raising his hand. This was the first time he had truly felt the wind blowing across his cheeks and through his body. Just as he was about to close his eyes to feel it, Shen Yining excitedly said, "Master Song, look at the rapeseed petals dancing!"
Song Xiaoyuan didn't see it and asked, "Where?"
Shen Yining motioned for him to bend down so that he was level with the rapeseed flowers. "Did you see it?"
At this moment, the rapeseed fields swayed in the wind, and the petals that fell were flying on the tops of the flowers. Song Xiaoyuan watched quietly. "This is something I have never heard of in my life!"
Ah Wu accompanied Xingyue to pick a lot of rape flowers. Shen's mother in another field also sighed, "Husband, this field reminds me of the rape flowers all over the mountain when we were in Yongzhou."
Shen Rushan was immersed in watching the beautiful Zhao Ruohe, the youngest daughter of the Zhao family, who had accompanied him for half his life! At this moment, there were traces of time in the corners of his eyes.
He called out in a gentle voice, "Ruohe, you didn't choose Emperor Yan at that time, but followed a reckless man like me! You also gave birth to so many filial children for me, thank you for your hard work, Ruohe!"
Mother Shen hadn't heard her husband call her by this name for a long time. She was a little surprised and a little disappointed when she spoke: Rushan, I have been married to you for more than 20 years, and everyone calls me Madam Shen. I almost forgot that I have a name! Zhao Ruohe. "
Shen Rushan felt guilty. "It seems that after returning to Beijing from Yongzhou, everyone started calling me Madam, and I gradually changed my way of addressing you. Now I realize that I have been so busy and neglected you all these years! Ruohe is really sorry!"
Mother Shen smiled gently, "Rushan! I haven't called you by your name for a long time. The capital has changed a lot of habits. I suddenly miss Yongzhou!"
Shen Rushan said in one go, "I'm not busy these days, and Changjun and his wife are on their own. I'll take a day off tomorrow! Let's go back to Yongzhou to take a look! I'll take good care of you, Ruohe, along the way!"
Shen's mother stopped him, "Nonsense! No way! What about Yi Ning? Chang Si is still young!"
Shen Rushan said seriously, "Leave it to me, Ruohe."
Everyone is happy today, except...
