When Li Qiusui said this, he meant equality and friendship, but the gap between the two families was huge at the moment, and people wouldn't think about it in this way.
Zheng Yuanzhen didn't expect this, and she praised Li Qiusui's magnanimity in her heart.
On Li Qiusui's side, the two sisters Zheng Yan who were eager to help were sent away for a while, and she got busy.
If nothing else, I will live in this courtyard for nearly two years. If I want to live a happy life, I must first tidy up the courtyard to my liking.
The tables, chairs, benches, furniture and furnishings in the inner room, including beds and screens, are all available.
The clothes and jewelry brought from Jinfuyuan, the wooden box for saving monthly money, and the calligraphy brush copybooks that were used to practice calligraphy were all arranged by Cuiping and Li Qiusui. Li Qiusui was more interested in the orchids that brought him the first pot of gold. Heart.
Qing Heng moved them over, and she stroked them one by one first, secretly inputting some abilities, and others just thought she was checking for damage.
The precious orchid is still placed in the back room for the time being. Over there in the main room, it is under the eyes of the green screen and green bamboo all day long. It is too troublesome to do anything about it. In the back room, they come here from time to time. Orchid has Despite the change, they only thought that Li Qiu Sui was very skilled in growing flowers.
Li Qiu Sui, who is highly skilled in gardening flowers, stood in the corner behind the yard and called for the woman who specialized in taking care of flowers and trees. "Call two more people to come over and clean up this small area. All the soil must be dug deeply." Once again, remember not to break up the lumps of earth."
The mother-in-law was appointed by Mrs. Zheng, and she would tend to the flowers and trees in the yard from now on. After listening to Li Qiu Sui's instructions, she hurriedly saluted and said in a stuttering voice: "Girl, what should I do with these flower seedlings?"
She was talking about the flowers and trees that Li Qiusui wanted to clear away.
"Doesn't the Zheng family have a flower room?"
"Yes, yes. The white-haired lion in our courtyard was bred by Chengxi." The mother-in-law said hurriedly.
Li Qiu Sui didn't know who Cheng Xi was. The white-haired lion meant the white chrysanthemums placed in the corridor.
"You return these to them."
You can still survive if you plant it again somewhere else.
They are all spring flowers, roses, autumn chrysanthemums, phlox and other seasonal flowers. They are all common varieties. The advantage is that they are easy to maintain. There are also bamboo and plum trees on the wall.
She had other uses for this area, otherwise she wouldn't have touched them.
No one had lived in the yard here before, and the flowers and trees were naturally grown and growing well.
"In this case, you go to the flower room and ask. If they don't want it, come back and tell me."
The woman nodded hurriedly, called the two of them over, explained them, and trotted out.
No one came to find out what happened next. After dinner, Li Qiusui went out to eat, and the place had been tidied up. According to her words, everything was thoroughly dug through, and the lumps were not removed.
I'm going back to Lijiacun tomorrow. I don't know how many days I'll be there, so I'll leave it here for now.
After working until late at night, Li Qiusui took off his shoes and went to bed peacefully.
…
…
Over at Jinfu Courtyard, Zheng Ying returned to the dark courtyard under the moonlight.
After three months together, the girl left and half of Jinfuyuan was emptied.
The inner room was also pitch black.
Qing Heng hurriedly walked a few steps and entered the house to light the lamp.
Logically speaking, there is a maid in the house, and someone should turn on the light as soon as it gets dark.
The young master gave all his people to Miss Li and refused to ask for any more servants. He and Qingyun were the only ones around him. They had been staying in the study and forgot about turning on the lamp.
"...light one more, Qingyun will bring you a book." Zheng Ying ordered Qingheng as he walked towards the clean room.
I came back a little early, not feeling sleepy, so I looked for a book to pass the time.
"Which one? Which one do you want, Master?" Qingyun asked after chasing him.
"casual."
"Whatever?" You are too casual! Qingyun only dared to whisper in a low voice.
What's wrong with the young master? He has kept a straight face all day long and hasn't said a few words in total. He usually doesn't talk much, but he's not so foggy and confused that people are confused.
Qingyun glanced outside, and after all this time, he still wanted to read!
…
…
It was still dark the next day, so Li Qiusui packed up early. Cuiping followed him back and Cuizhu stayed behind.
"Girl, please take me with you." Cuizhu begged with tears in her eyes while carrying a small bundle.
"Next time, I'll take you there next time!" Li Qiusui said embarrassedly.
Their house only has a few rooms. Zheng Ying followed her this time. She didn't know how to arrange it, so she brought green bamboo with her... It's winter now, and it's extremely cold at night. How can farmers have so many beds and quilts! Can people sleep on the ground?
Li Qiusui's movements were considered deft. Zheng Ying and Qing Heng were already waiting at the gate.
The two parties met, and the coachman drove the carriage straight to Shanghe Town. We were still walking the same way as before. It was late autumn and the crops on the fields were almost finished. Busy farmers could still be seen everywhere. They were resting the land and preparing to plant the next crop.
This time I didn't ask anyone to deliver the letter. The carriage stopped in front of my house. At first glance, it was still the original adobe thatched house, almost unchanged.
Li Qiusui jumped off the carriage and saw Xia He busy in the yard.
"sister!"
Taking advantage of the nice weather, Xia He was drying his bedding in the yard. Hearing people's voices, he looked toward the door of the courtyard where the noise came from.
"Sui Sui, you're back!" Xia He dropped his work and ran over. While looking at the person, he said: "Is someone bullying you? Your parents are here. I'll call their family."
In her opinion, her sister must have been bullied when she came home suddenly.
After Sui Sui left, my father and eldest brother frequently went to Fucheng to inquire about the Zheng family. They knew a little bit about Young Master Zheng's recovery.
It's so good, why did this person come home?
"Don't be afraid every time you come. Come home. Sit down by yourself first. I'll call my parents back." Xia He was so angry that he pulled Li Qiu Sui and walked into the courtyard.
Li Qiusui saw her sister's excitement, but was distracted by Xia He's words.
I'm afraid if she makes random guesses, there will be someone behind her!
He coughed quickly and said before he could finish his sentence: "Ahem! Sister, Zheng Ying came to live with me."
"Zheng Ying!"
Who?
"Are you from the Zheng family?"
Xia He still wanted to ask more carefully.
Zheng Ying got off the carriage, came forward to salute, and called "Third Cousin".
Xia He has been to the town several times since he was a child, and the most powerful people he has seen are only the members. I have seen his young master a few times. He is broad and fat and almost walks sideways in the town.
Have you ever seen such a humble and polite young master?
Xia He took a few steps back, waving his hands and saying, "Don't mistake relatives, I don't have a cousin like you."
Li Qiu Sui burst out laughing, looking at both sides of her with unkind expressions, and hurriedly introduced her sister, "This is Young Master Zheng."
Zheng Ying's face over there was dark and red. She had never encountered such a battle since she was a child! His mother had already asked people to inquire about the members of the Li family, and he had made some guesses about their personalities.
I finally worked up the courage to call someone my cousin, but was rejected by them.
Xia He blinked at his sister.
Li Qiusui nodded.
Xia He was stunned for a moment, then he changed his smile and said randomly, "Yes, he's a cousin from the Zheng family! Look at me, I'm so happy to see my sister! Well, sit at home and I'll call my parents." .”
He stuttered, and before he could finish his words, he didn't dare to look at Young Master Zheng's face, so he ran away in a hurry.
Li Qiusui looked at her sister's back, dumbfounded, and ran away!
He stole a glance at Zheng Ying and pretended not to notice his dark expression.
