He noticed her just from a distance.

Today, he was pestered by his sister to go out for an autumn outing, but his sister went flying kites with other friends. He didn't like it, so he kept sitting in the shade of the tree and reading.

Ruan Tang's appearance attracted his attention.

In his more than twenty years of life, he had never paid such attention to a woman.

His mind has always been on books. His ideal is to go to Beijing to take the scientific examination, and then talk about marriage after gaining fame.

But Ruan Tang's appearance ignited a blazing fire in his silent heart.

After he saw her throwing the spool on the ground in annoyance, he finally couldn't hold it back and approached her to strike up a conversation.

If it were in the past, he would definitely not do such a thing.

In his view, such behavior was insulting to politeness.

But now he slapped himself hard, but he didn't regret it, especially after seeing her up close, he was attracted by her beauty.

Ruan Tangxu also noticed his gaze and turned his eyes back from the kite in the sky.

The man felt a little guilty and quickly averted his gaze.

After a while, he pulled the spool and walked to Ruan Tang, "Girl, do you want to try it?"

Ruan Tang was a little hesitant. She was afraid that if the spool was in her hands, the kite would fall to the ground again.

The man understood her thoughts and said, "The kite has already flown up and will not fall to the ground easily. Girl, give it a try."

With that said, he handed the spool to Ruan Tang.

Ruan Tang carefully took the spool, but after it was completely in her hand, she panicked again and didn't know how to operate it at all.

And the kite in the sky swayed left and right in the air because of her panic.

"It's about to fall, you better do it." Ruan Tang exclaimed, and directly put the spool into the man's hand.

The man did not expect that Ruan Tang would directly put the spool into his hand. In this way, the two people would inevitably touch skin, and the man was so embarrassed that his ears turned red.

His heart couldn't help beating violently, and his mind became a little dazed.

However, Ruan Tang didn't notice. After putting the spool into his hand, he began to urge, "Hurry up, the kite is about to fall."

The man's thoughts finally came back and he quickly moved his gaze to the kite in the sky.

He continued to tug and pull loosely as before, and soon, the kite was once again soaring smoothly in the air.

Ruan Tang saw that the kite was flying smoothly again and couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that you are still the best, I really can't handle it well."

The man turned his head slightly and saw a bit of disappointment on the face of the woman next to him. He knew that she was disappointed because he failed to fly the kite properly.

"Girl, how about I teach you." The man handed her the spool again.

Ruan Tang didn't want to, but seeing his eager eyes and the fact that she really wanted to try again, she finally took the spool.

The man was beside her, helping her pull the thread.

"You pull the string like this, pull it up and down, and the kite will fly smoothly. Now you can fly it higher. If you don't want it to go any higher, you don't have to let the string go. Just pull it and let it go."

The man spoke seriously, and Ruan Tang also listened carefully.

Ruan Tang also followed his instructions and put one hand on the line. However, before the man's hand could be removed, their hands inevitably touched each other.

The man panicked, quickly removed his hand, and then apologized, "I didn't mean to offend the girl. I hope she won't blame her."

For Ruan Tang, it was just a touch of hands, and she didn't feel anything.

She does not have some of the overly feudal ideas of this era. If a man and a woman touch each other accidentally, it is nothing.

But she knew that in this era there were still many people who were particular about whether men and women should be intimate with each other.

For example, the man in front of him had red cheeks and lowered his eyebrows, looking terrified.

"Young master, you haven't married yet?" Ruan Tang asked mindlessly.

The man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I'm not married yet."

"No wonder." A slight smile appeared on Ruan Tang's lips, "We just touched each other accidentally. Master, there is no need to be so scared. I am not that pedantic."

"On the contrary, I should also thank you for your generous teaching today, otherwise, my kite would not be able to fly."

Seeing that Ruan Tang didn't mean to be angry, the man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I have nothing to do anyway. It is my honor to be able to help the girl."

Ruan Tang nodded and turned his gaze back to the kite in the sky.

The man stood beside her, raising his eyes to glance at her profile from time to time, and then lowered his head shyly.

After repeating this several times, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Dare you ask the girl her name?"

"My name is Ruan Tang, Ruan from Yuan, Tang from Haitang."

"Don't boast when a hundred flowers bloom. Ruan Tang is alone in her beauty. It's such a good name."

Ruan Tang never thought that with just one name, he could compose a poem.

"Young master is very talented. What should I call him?"

"I'm Lu Zhenyi."

"Master Lu's name is also very nice."

When Lu Zhenyi heard this, he blushed again with embarrassment.

But the two of them didn't know that not far away, someone's eyes were fixed on the two of them.

The way the two of them talked and laughed, and how they flew a kite together, every frame and every scene was dazzling.

With his hands behind his back, his nails were about to pinch the flesh off his hands.

"Master, why don't you go over and send that man away?"

Nanfeng, who was standing next to Chu Mu, looked at the scene not far away, and then looked at the dark face of his Highness.

If it weren't for his current identity, His Highness would definitely step forward and throw away the shameless white-faced scholar.

"Why? I think they were having a good time chatting." Chu Mu's voice was full of sourness.

Nanfeng raised his eyebrows slightly but said nothing.

Obviously I don't care enough, I just want to be pretentious.

What's the use of standing here? Go ahead and grab it if you can!

But Nanfeng didn't dare to say it.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from beside him. Nanfeng looked sideways and saw Ruan Tiantian being carried off the carriage next to her.

A smile suddenly appeared on Nanfeng's face.

Just the next moment, he saw Qingfeng, the smile on his face disappeared, he felt guilty, and he quickly turned his head back.

After a while, he remembered that he and Chu Mu had changed their appearance at this moment. Ruan Tang didn't recognize them, so how could Qingfeng recognize them.

When I think about this, I feel relieved.

He quickly raised his hand and pulled Chu Mu's sleeve, "Master, look next to you, who is here?"

Chu Mu's eyes were always on Ruan Tang, and he didn't notice the movement next to him.

Hearing Nanfeng's reminder, he turned his head to look at where he was pointing with some displeasure.

Ruan Tiantian was standing on the ground looking around, as if looking for something.

When his eyes moved to Chu Mu's side, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Then the people from behind also cheered to him, "Uncle Ajiu, why are you here?"
