Chapter 12: The Way Is No Sunny But Sunny

Because the vegetation is denser, the weather in the countryside is slightly cooler than in the capital city. However, the sun is almost at its peak now, and the feeling of walking in the scorching sun is absolutely uncomfortable.

Before, she walked from Zhang's house at the beginning of the village to the temporary school at the end of the village. Now she had to walk from the end of the village to the end of the village. Zhu Ying was sweating profusely and felt that her clothes were all clinging to her body, which was extremely uncomfortable.

.

As she walked, she thought that on weekdays, every hot day, she would hide in a room full of ice basins to avoid getting red and tanned, or ruining her makeup with sweating.

What kind of class was she teaching? She wouldn't come out in such a scorching sun and walk so much!

Although she found something, the guy still ignored her!

Moreover, she either took a car or a sedan in the capital, and mostly rode a horse. This was the first time for her to really walk such a long distance on two legs. You must know that even when she entered the palace in the past, she

He was always treated favorably and always had someone to sit on.

Zhu Ying unconsciously raised her sleeves to block the scorching sun, but after taking a few steps, she suddenly felt that her eyes, which had been too hot to open due to the sun, suddenly darkened. She thought it was clouds finally coming from the sky, so she hurriedly

I put down my sleeves and looked up, only to find that what was covering up the scorching sun was actually a big red oil-paper umbrella!

The most important thing is that there is a poem written on that umbrella, it is "Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night"!

She stared at the handwriting for a long time, and suddenly she felt that it looked familiar, and then she thought of looking at the person holding the umbrella. As soon as she turned her head, her eyes froze, and the irritation she had just felt completely dissipated.

Jing, even he stutters a bit when he speaks.

"You...how did you..."

Zhang Shou reached out and handed over the umbrella calmly: "Don't go out in summer. Use an umbrella when you go out, otherwise it will be too late to get a tan."

After saying this, and waiting for Miss Zhu to take it blankly, he nodded slightly and left without looking back.

After a long while, Zhu Ying suddenly came back to her senses. She saw that the beautiful paper umbrella in her hand not only had a round and smooth handle, but also the ink-stained poem on the umbrella paper and the occasional embellished patterns were also pleasing to the eye. She couldn't help but feel...

After feeling better, he actually forgot that there was a dull gourd next to him. He turned around and shook the umbrella in his hand and asked: "Your young master made this?"

"No, Carpenter Xu did it in his spare time." Ah Liu's answer was still stiff, but then he suddenly changed the subject and said, "But the words above were written by the young master. It is a poem he likes very much."

At this moment, Zhu Ying suddenly beamed with joy. She was not the kind of talented girl who could recite poems rightly with her mouth. She had been studying since she was a child, and she was familiar with dozens or hundreds of Tang poems and Song lyrics easily. However, she liked this gorgeous and timeless poem the most.

, a single article covers the whole Tang Dynasty, Spring River Flower Moonlight Night, but no one mentioned it.

What a good fate...but this bad handwriting is really irritating!

She was so happy that she no longer cared about Ah Liu's initial half-sentence, and continued to move forward holding an oil-paper umbrella. Even though the sun was still fierce in the sky at this moment, it was very uncomfortable to walk on the muddy ground in the village, and she was still sweating.

, but she was holding a big red oil-paper umbrella but she was very leisurely, and she even couldn't help but think of a digression in her mind.

Does Zhang Shou know that red oil-paper umbrellas are said to be used by grooms when picking up their brides?

Although she had thought about taking a quick shower, changing clothes, and then lying on the bed without getting up, with the big red oil paper umbrella to shade the sun, Miss Zhu finally cheered up, thinking that since she was visiting her father

If you live in Zhangjia under the pretext of property, you should take a walk around the village. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a joke if you don’t know anything after you go back?

As a result, the children in the village were fortunate enough to see a completely different scenery than when Mr. Zhang Shou passed by.

I saw a young man wearing elegant blue silk clothes but with a striking appearance. He was holding a big red paper umbrella and walking through the dirt road in the village. He walked here and looked there, as if a flower of wealth suddenly appeared in the pastoral picture.

Peonies are extremely eye-catching.

With the first child following behind in confusion, when Zhu Ying walked around the village, she was already followed by a long line of children. When she saw a rice field on the edge of the village, she finally

Sensing something was wrong, I turned my head and saw there were men and women behind me, some older and some younger. The older one was only four or five years old, and the younger one was just old enough to walk.

When facing her gaze, many people ran away, but stopped after running a short distance, turned around and continued to stare at her.

If it had been anyone else, it would have been baffling, but when Zhu Ying was riding a horse on the streets of Beijing, she had already experienced the attention of the crowd. At this time, she was just slightly startled and then giggled: "These little guys, they do know beauty and ugliness!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Ah Liu's voice: "Miss, it seems that there are guests at home."

Miss Zhu immediately turned her head to look, only to see that the Zhang family was indeed not far away. At this moment, there were many carriages and horses parked in front of the gate that was empty when she came out. The carriage alone was enough

Seven cars!

With her excellent eyesight, she recognized that those carriages were from home. Her first feeling was not happiness, but... nervousness!

You know, she was forced to stay yesterday because of her little temper. Not to mention that the second brother would definitely be furious. Even her grandmother, who always loved her and doted on her, might not tolerate her continuing to do this. What if this group of people came to pick her up?

What to do? She hasn't found out what she should ask clearly. Zhang Shou still seems to be hidden in the clouds and fog, and she hasn't been able to understand it at all!

She didn't care that her legs felt like lead after walking too much today, so she hurried over quickly.

Before she reached the door, Zhu Ying heard some noises inside, and she felt even more anxious. But immediately after, she saw two figures rushing out of the door angrily. When they saw her, they

He immediately ran over like flying.

Recognizing her two most trusted eldest girls, Zhan Jin and Liu Yin, Zhu Ying felt slightly relieved. Before they could speak, she quickly asked: "Why did you get out of there? What's going on with this noise? Could it be Er?

Brother is here?"

Zhan Jin, who was tall and wearing a honey-colored dress, was overjoyed when he saw Zhu Ying. A slight dimple appeared on his right cheek. When he heard Zhu Ying's words, he showed an angry look.

"Liu Yin and I couldn't stand Mother Zhao's frivolous behavior, so we planned to come out to find you! The Second Young Master didn't come, and the Madam grounded him and sent Mother Li and Mother Jiang to bring us here. But God knows that Second Young Master is here.

What did the young master think, he actually instigated Mother Zhao to lead someone to stop our car on the way!"

After hearing this, Zhu Ying was immediately furious. No one knew better than her what kind of person her wet nurse, Mrs. Zhao, was. Relying on the fact that she had taken care of her late biological mother and fed her for another two or three years, she had always been a nurse.

She bullied others in the house. She was kept in the dark at first, but when she found out, she immediately became furious and kicked people out of the house forcefully, calling it a glorious name.

I didn’t expect that this shameless person would be led here again!

The next moment, she heard clearly the sharp voice of Zhao's mother: "Any corridor in the house is bigger than this one. How can people live in such a cramped place! How can the eldest lady, who is so rich and noble, listen to people's deceptions and live in such a pig?"

A circle-like place?”

Knowing that if she didn't stop Zhao's mother, all her hard work in staying in the Zhang family would be in vain, Zhu Ying almost burst her fists. But she was about to rush in and stop this talkative woman, but she glanced at the way she came from the corner of her eye.

She saw Zhang Shou coming back at some point, and he was standing side by side with Ah Liu not far behind her.

It's not clear whether he heard Mother Zhao's shouting. She couldn't help but screamed in secret, but then Zhang Shou's name irritated her.

"Miss."

"I told you to call me Yingying!"

When she thought that Zhang Shou had never called her Yingying from yesterday to today, and had always kept a distance from her, Zhu Ying became extremely angry. She instantly realized that she shouldn't be arrogant in front of the girl.

Temper, Zhan Jin immediately refused Zhan Jin who was reaching out to help him get the big red oil paper umbrella, and asked Zhang Shou with some embarrassment: "Why are you stopping me? I want to go in and chase away that shrew!"

Zhang Shou pretended not to notice her change of mood and asked calmly: "How are you going to chase her away? Scold or fight? Why argue with a shrew until you get angry? The right way is to conquer the enemy without fighting.

It’s the best policy.”

Zhan Jin and Liu Yin, who were standing behind their young lady, had all four eyes fixed on Zhang Shou at this moment.

They didn't know what happened yesterday at all, so much so that their young lady stayed in the countryside without even a change of clothes. But now when they saw Zhang Shou, they completely understood.

The young gentleman in front of me is first-class in terms of appearance and demeanor. No one in the capital can match him. Even the calm tone of his words makes people feel happy...

It’s just that it’s a bit outrageous to deal with Mother Zhao on paper right now!

Zhu Ying was also a little dissatisfied: "Zhu Gongquan is still a scholar after all, and your tricks will work. But the one who is making trouble now is my wet nurse. She is illiterate and unreasonable. In the past, few people dared to mess with her. You can only argue with her."

You will be so angry that you surrender to others without fighting?"

Zhang Shou looked calm as if a mountain man had his own clever plan: "After you go in, ignore her, just talk to the people sent by your grandmother, and let them deal with her. Your second brother is so powerful that your grandmother can ground him, you are a wet nurse

Can you handle your grandmother's cronies?"

Zhan Jin and Liu Yin looked at each other, a little surprised, but Zhu Ying's eyes lit up, and she directly handed the big red oil paper umbrella to the two of them, and then smiled sweetly at Zhang Shou: "Well, the authorities are confused, but the onlookers know clearly, I will

Try your idea!"

Thinking of what she saw and heard in the village today, it was enough to prove that Zhang Shou was not exactly a country man with a good skin. Now this idea sounded reasonable. She glanced at him with excitement, and then held her head high.

Entered the gate.

Without even looking at the brightly dressed Mother Zhao, Zhu Ying walked straight across the yard, came to Mrs. Wu, and asked with a smile: "Aunt Wu, I'm hungry, what's for lunch today?"

Outside the gate, Zhang Shou couldn't help but touch his nose. Should he say that this rich lady really knows how to draw analogies?

She actually did it more thoroughly than what he suggested. Not to mention the shrewish wet nurse, even the people sent by the Mrs. Zhao Guogong's mansion ignored them all!
