Between the vast sea of ​​clouds

Chen Jun led the horse into the stable, and found a bag of hay from the corner. This yard used to be the property of the Wei family, but now it was sold to Yunzhou native 'Yu Jun' several times. Meditating, I don't dislike the taste of this old forage, I just lower my head to eat grass.

Qingping and Liu Zhen went to the room and found quilts and mattresses in several dusty boxes, but these things had been stored for a long time, and they smelled musty.But it was already dark at this time, and I was afraid it would be too late to go to the street to buy new ones.

Fortunately, Chen Jun is not a particular person, so the three shared their bedding and made do with it for one night. The next day, Qingping changed back into the clothes worn by servants and swept the floor in the yard. Chen Jun took Liu Zhen to the street. Buy some essential household items.

The morning sun shines into this small courtyard. Qingping picked up the bamboo poles and wiped them clean, and made a simple shelf for drying quilts. There is a small well behind the yard. Added some.

There is a big tree outside the yard, and some of its branches extend into the backyard. Qingping has been busy all morning, and only three houses have been sorted out. The kitchen is full of dust. Qingping cleaned the stove and planned to use it for cooking meal.

Chen Jun came back at noon. They bought too many things and hired a cart to pull them back.After those things were moved into the yard, Qingping and Liu Zhen were busy tidying them up for a while before putting them away one by one.

The three of them had dinner in the afternoon. To Qingping's surprise, Chen Jun could cook, which completely overturned Qingping's cognition; when Chen Jun brought the dishes to the table, Liu Zhen and Qingping were almost stunned, Liu Zhen is about to kneel down and plead guilty.

"Don't talk nonsense." Chen Jun said impatiently, "Eat well, there are things to do later."

After eating, Chen Jun took Liu Zhen out again. Before leaving, she warned Qingping: "Close the door well, if someone comes, don't bother."

Qingping nodded, and after they left, he fixed the latch and continued to do her housework.

Time flies, and five days have passed in a blink of an eye. Chen Jun takes Liu Zhen out early and returns late every day, not knowing what to do.Qingping stayed at home alone and read the two books over and over several times.Sweep the yard when you have nothing to do, or stare at the horses by the stables.

The horse's leg looked like it had been sawed off, and it also looked dumb. There was newly bought horse feed in the stable. Qingping came to feed the horse on time every day. Gradually, the horse could recognize her. Her footsteps would flick her tail cheerfully, and she would make a humming sound from her nose.

From Chang'an's Palace to Hezhou's Le'an City, it seems that only one place has changed, and nothing else has changed. The branches in the backyard have begun to sprout. Qingping stays in this small courtyard to watch the sunset and sunrise every day. I don't know why. , but my heart is very peaceful.

Probably Chen Jun promised to return her contract of selling herself to her when she returned to Chang'an.This is much more cost-effective than working in the palace for ten years. Qingping propped his head on his hands, thinking about what he would do after he became a free agent.......It should be to go back to Qiongzhou to see his parents first, and then Let's look at finding a job to support myself, and when I have spare money in the future, I will travel around other states and counties.

Thinking of this, Qingping is suddenly a little confused, the future life is still too far away, but if she looks at the present, she doesn't understand what Chen Jun is doing at all, and Chen Jun doesn't seem to want her to participate in his plan.Most of the time, Qingping feels that she just needs someone who obeys orders.

Chen Jun is really a very strange person, Qingping thinks, there are many contradictions in her body, sometimes Qingping thinks that she is like another person, a young lady who was born in a palace, and she has never traveled far a few times, but the journey along the way Her words and deeds are like someone who has wandered in the wind and dust, old and steady.

Finally, on the morning of the sixth day, Qingping ended his days with Ma Zhaoxi.Liu Zhen put on a new outfit for her, Chen Jun nodded in satisfaction after seeing it, and they left the yard, a carriage was parked outside the door.Qingping noticed that Chen Jun was wearing a dark blue robe today, she looked very mature, and there was only a silver hairpin on her head, not a crown.

The carriage drove across the long street, and turned into a quiet alley after exiting the noisy market. Chen Jun raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Madam has told you that if you are doing business in Le'an City, you should not delay Miss's homework."

Qingping was a little confused, and Liu Zhen smiled from the side: "The manager has been working hard these few days, working up and down, and found a good place to study for the young lady, which saved the young lady from being delayed. Let's wait for this matter, the madam asked about the young lady's studies , it’s good to have an explanation.”

The carriage stopped, and Liu Zhen came down to support Qingping. Only then did Qingping see that they were in front of a simple and elegant courtyard. The courtyard was huge, and the long street was within its range. No wonder they didn't hear any noise when they came. .The vermilion gate is majestic and majestic, with several heavy cornices, and a plaque hangs high in the middle, which reads "Lize Book Hall" in running script.

At the foot of the entrance is a stone-paved road. Looking around, there are Jiangnan buildings with white walls and black tiles, and a lush bamboo forest on the right.Chen Jun brought Qingping to a yard, and the sound of reading could be faintly heard. Qingping looked up and saw many patterns of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting painted with ink on the edge of the wall, and a door was half-closed. Chen Jun asked Liu Zhen to wait outside. , pulled Qingping and walked in.

The room here is very elegantly furnished. There are several sets of wild grass hanging on the wall, and a stone-patterned screen is placed inside. A middle-aged woman in a Confucian robe sits in the hall. Her skin is yellowish and she wears a Confucian crown. She looks very Serious look.

Chen Jun said: "This is Wang Jiaoyu." After speaking, he brought a cup of tea from the side and handed it to Qingping, "Go and serve tea to Jiaoyu."

Qingping obediently took the tea, knelt in front of Wang Jiaoyu consciously, served the tea with both hands, Wang Jiaoyu took a sip of the tea, and said to Qingping: "I heard that you have been bedridden for a long time due to illness, so you have delayed your studies. In the school hall, you need to be diligent all the time, obey the rules, and don't waste time."

Qingping wanted to understand even if she didn’t understand it now. Chen Jun asked her to come to the school to study. She knelt down to salute, kowtowed three heads and got up and said, “I would like to follow the instruction.”

Wang Jiaoyu was worried that she was a spoiled child in the family before, but now seeing that she is very young, but her words and deeds are very restrained, and she is not a mischievous person, so she said with satisfaction: "Let's go to school today."

Chen Jun said from the side: "Miss, don't worry, the accommodation has been arranged and the things have been moved in. You can live in the study hall today."

Wang Jiaoyu got up and brushed off his robe, cupped his hands and said, "You can take care of yourself, I will go ahead and send Yu Jun to the courtyard later."

After she left, Chen Jun looked down at Qingping, feeling that she was a little depressed, and asked softly, "What's the matter, don't you want to go to school?"

Qing Ping shook his head, she only reached Chen Jun's shoulder, as long as he lowered his head, Chen Jun would not be able to see her face.Qingping thought for a while, then asked: "Do I want to live in the book hall all the time?"

Chen Jun looked at her with complicated eyes, finally squatted down, pressed Qingping's shoulders and said: "The school is safe, you don't have to worry. Someone will pick you up every month, and you won't be kept in the school all the time." .”

Qingping noticed that she used 'monthly', which meant that they might stay in Le'an for a long time. The book hall is a safe place, so is it very dangerous outside the book hall?What is Chen Jun doing? Qingping does not believe that she sent her to the school out of good intentions and considering her own safety. There is a reason for everything. Chen Jun always plans before doing things, and does not do stupid things that waste time and energy. lift.

"Dangdangdang-"

The bell in the study hall rang three times, and Chen Jun took Qingping to see where she lived. It was a small room, and everything was well furnished.When they left the residence, many children suddenly appeared outside, all wearing uniform little white robes, Qingping realized that he was wearing the same clothes as them.Those children looked at Qingping with curious eyes, Chen Jun led her to the door of a small courtyard, and said to her: "Go in, Xiu Mu will pick you up again."

After she finished speaking, she left, and Qingping stood at the door, watching her go away.She couldn't tell what was going on in her heart, but it felt like she was back in her previous life when she was in an orphanage. When she was young, she was adopted by a family, but not long after, her adoptive mother became pregnant and Qingping was sent back.The feeling of shattered hope had a great impact on her. Fortunately, she did not pin this hope on others and avoided the pain of disappointment.

There were children playing and laughing in the yard. When they saw her standing at the door, they surrounded her curiously, and let them watch calmly. A girl raised her chin and asked, "Nuo, are you new here?"

Qingping nodded, and all the children said "wow", and the girl asked again: "Where are you from?"

Qingping replied: "People from Yunzhou."

"People from Yunzhou..." the girls chatted excitedly, and the girl who asked the question at the beginning said, "What kind of place is Yunzhou?"

Qingping thought for a while, shortened the sentence, and replied: "Yunzhou is very big, with grasslands to the east, desert to the south, and Juning Pass to the north..."

Before she could finish speaking, the bell rang again, and the children scattered and rushed into the courtyard.

The girl who just asked the question turned around and smiled at Qingping, and said, "My name is Wu Ying, how about you?"

"Yu Jun." Qingping said, "My name is Yu Jun."

The days in the school were very fulfilling. Qingping got up in the morning and went to study with the girls. Qingping finally understood why Chen Jun asked Liu Zhen to teach her how to read. The book they are holding now is exactly the same as the one taught by Zhiqi Liu Zhen. Basic enlightenment book.

No wonder Chen Jun said at that time that he would always use it, it was really exhaustive, Qingping thought, a little lost in thought.

After the morning reading, I started to learn how to read and write. Qingping’s literacy is not bad, but it’s not enough when I pick up the brush. The teacher who taught them passed by her and saw her hand, dog! Climbing characters frowned, saying : "You have to be slow when you pick up and close the brush, and you have to be organized when you write and draw, and you can't act too hastily."

Qing Ping blushed, nodded, and slowed down as he said.I began to write only after I had a rough idea of ​​the structure of the characters in my heart. Although this kind of practice was much, much slower than the people around me, at least Qingping's characters would not look like a black mass.

The girl named Wu Ying sat obliquely above Qingping. Sometimes when her husband was not paying attention, she would suddenly turn her head and smile mischievously at Qingping, and often dragged Qingping to the dining hall after class.But Qingping noticed that the girls around were very unfriendly to Wu Ying, almost ignoring her, even Qingping was treated like this.

Sometimes when the husband handed out papers, most of them were missing when they reached Qingping, and there was not enough to write at all.At first, Qingping held back, but one day, her husband sent a paper and left for business. In the end, there was only one piece of paper in Qingping's hands. She held the paper and looked at it quietly. The children around were laughing and waiting for her reaction. .

"Could it be that you are going to cry, haha." Someone said so

Qing Ping put the piece of rice paper on the table, her front desk was still giggling, unexpectedly Qing Ping got into trouble, walked up to her and asked, "Where's the paper?"

The girl was taken aback, and stammered: "...I...I didn't..." As she spoke, she took the initiative to open her own phone under Qingping's fierce eyes. Show her the book.

Qingping continued to walk to the seat of the previous person and said coldly: "What about you? Did you see my paper?"

The man was also terrified, shaking his head and spreading the book to show his innocence.

Qingping sneered and walked to the top person. At this time, the whole classroom was silent, watching Qingping furious quietly. The girl sitting in the first seat said to Qingping: "I didn't take your paper."

She put one hand on the table, this action is really not convincing, Qingping pulled out a stack of rice paper from her hand, said coldly: "There are so many, can you finish writing?"

The girl's face was flushed with embarrassment. At first she came up with this idea to torment Qingping, but Qingping didn't resist, and they classified this new student as a bully in their hearts, and she was still proud of it for a few days. .Now that he was exposed in public, he couldn't choose what to say for a while: "It's a waste of paper to write for you! You are with that kind of escape, and you deserve this paper!"

After she finished talking about Qingping, she slowly backed away, and the girls realized that at some point the husband was already standing at the door. The girl who spoke stood up in panic, and the husband said with a sullen face: "Xie Qi, what did you just say?" ,say it again."

Xie Qi didn't dare to speak, the gentleman came in and slapped the paperweight stone on the table heavily, and said angrily: "I teach you the words of saints on weekdays, and always remind you to reflect on yourself, respect teachers and respect, respect friends and relatives, you are Like this?!"

The room was quiet, Mr. sat down on the chair and said coldly, "Today, I will copy [-] more chapters of paper, so I will copy the "Ritual Law". Put it on the desk after class today, and I will check it out."

One person made a mistake and the whole class was punished. No one dared to say anything. Qingping took out the paper, turned to the page that needed to be copied, and began to write.

The author has something to say: Leave a message and ask for flowers
