Chapter 388 Academy (1)

After a night's rest, she woke up early in the morning and listened to the sound of reading. Chu Xue looked out the window. The ray of sunshine in the early morning shone on her face, and she couldn't help but gently raise her hands to cover her eyes.

"Miss, the Ninth Young Master is in the northwest. Lu Mao won't fly back to the capital to find him, right?"

Tao'er brought water into the house and prepared to wait for Chuxue to wash up. Chuxue turned around and slowly walked over and said with a smile: "Lu Mao is smart. Senior brother left almost two days later than us. He sent me twice in the meantime. How can I be wrong?"

"

"If Mr. Ninth knew that the young lady had also gone to the northwest, he would definitely be worried."

Tao'er sighed, she was always on tenterhooks all the way anyway.

Chuxue pursed her lips and pulled back her hair with a smile, "Don't worry, senior brother is smart about his departure. He definitely won't have time to go to Mushan before leaving, and I'm afraid he won't have the time to think about anything else."

"Miss, how long do we have to go northwest?" Tao'er helped comb her hair. She kept things simple when she was away from home.

Chuxue frowned and thought for a while, "Let's watch while we walk."

Looking along the way, except for the people who came from the northwest border, basically the local people were relatively calm. They knew that the war was going on, and they were not as scared and uneasy as they imagined. The days were not much different from usual. In short, there was no such thing.

A sense of tension in the face of battle.

This is a very bad signal.

Moreover, the people migrating inward from the Northwest Inner Pass were not too panicked. They met some on the way. After chatting with them, Chuxue found that they did not feel the cruelty of the war. Most of these people who moved in had relatives to seek refuge with.

, or those with some wealth. It is reported that many people in the pass have no plans to migrate.

Chuxue learned from their mouths that the first six cities were lost without any big scenes. Polo attacked the city very quickly, and after seizing the city, there was no mass killing or looting, so the people were not as concerned as they thought.

So panicked.

For most people, as long as life remains peaceful, they really don't seem to care who is an official or who is in charge of the family.

This situation is very bad for Dayuan, although Chuxue cannot specifically say what is bad about it, in short it is not good.

Jinxiu also came over while the master and servant were talking. Not long after Jinxiu arrived, Mrs. Yuan came over with her two daughters.

"Both ladies are up."

"Hello, madam, hello, ladies!"

Chuxue and Jinxiu got up, they still had to treat themselves as guests.

"Why are you so polite? You haven't had breakfast yet. Let's go and have dinner together. The academy is simple and simple, and the two young ladies don't dislike it."

Mrs. Yuan and the two young ladies are also dressed simply, but dignified and elegant, with the air of a scholarly family.

Chuxue smiled and replied, "What did Madam say? It's Chuxue who disturbed you." Chuxue followed her to have a meal. The courtyard where Yuan Xiuhe's family lived was not very big. After leaving the door, they walked through a patio and arrived at the flower hall.

Breakfast has also been laid out.

The two young ladies were very curious about Chuxue. Although they were similar in age, according to their seniority, they had to address him respectfully because he was from the same family as their father.

The meal was very quiet. After finishing the meal, Mrs. Yuan asked for tea, "This is the scented tea made by my Shuya herself. You can try it."

"Sister Shuya made it herself? Then Chuxue must try it." Chuxue could already smell the fragrance of jasmine. She was really not good at this kind of thing.

"Have a try, what's the habit of living here? It's a rare visit. If nothing happens, just stay here for a while and let Shu Yashu Xin take you around for a while. The crabapples are in bloom right now."

Chuxue's eyes lit up, "When I came here, sir, he told me that I had a good eye, and that the begonias in Yiming Academy were one of a kind, just in time for the flowering season."

"Really? We see it all year round and don't realize it, but we do have a lot of varieties of crabapples here." Mrs. Yuan spoke casually, Chuxue was easy to deal with, and she became less unfamiliar as she talked, and Jinxiu was

Sitting quietly aside, she still knew the priorities.

"Then you have to take a look. Madam is only busy with your business. Let's follow the two sisters to enjoy the flowers."

"Okay! Shu Ya, Shu Xin, you have to take good care of the two young ladies."

"What's wrong with Miss? My two sisters are a little older than me, so just call me Chuxue. Sister Jinxiu is the same age as them, so just call her by her first name."

"Sister Chuxue is right, don't call her by name, come on, let's walk." Shu Ya stood up with a smile, and stepped forward to hold Chuxue's arm. She looked so familiar that it didn't make anyone feel embarrassed.

Mrs. Yuan smiled and shook her head, "Don't be surprised, these two girls in my family have been used to wild things since they were young."

"I just like the temperament of the two sisters." They don't have the pretense of those girls in the capital. Although they are casual, they are not impolite. My aunt said that education is something that is engraved in the bones, not shown out or pretended.

from.

After watching the children leave, Mrs. Yuan served tea and sat down to sip it slowly, while the maid and old lady tidied up the things in an orderly manner.

"Madam, what do you think of this Miss Chuxue?"

Who is not curious about the female disciples that Mr. Sohe accepted?

"Last night, my husband told me that the female disciples he accepted are indeed somewhat different. Seeing them today...I think my husband's evaluation is a bit low. I don't know how talented he is, but his conversation, how to deal with people, and how he behaves are better than Shu.

Ya, they are much stronger."

The serving woman smiled and said, "Madam, have you exaggerated? Which of our two young ladies wouldn't say a few words of compliments when we see you?"

"I didn't say they were inferior, but in comparison, just because she was able to accept Sou He as her student, she was outstanding. This woman has an... indescribable magnanimity.

Did you see that the person next to her is the daughter of the head of the Jin family, a real young lady from an aristocratic family, but in front of her, everything is dominated by her, which is evident from this."

Mrs. Yuan couldn't describe her feeling for a moment, it was just different.

"Indeed, if nothing else, this girl has a smile on her face all the time, which makes people feel comfortable looking at her."

"Yes, it makes people look comfortable, and you can't tell what she is thinking. How old is she? She seems to be about fourteen or fifteen years old. Do you look like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child?"

As Mrs. Yuan spoke, the smile on her face gradually faded. At this age, she hides all her thoughts so that no one can see them at all. How could she do this if she was inexperienced in the world and didn't know the warmth and coldness of time?

"It's true what Madam said. Madam, you said she has only one daughter, and she comes all the way from the capital. Aren't her family worried? What is she doing out here?" She doesn't want to travel around, right?

"I heard she is an orphan. Hey, don't ask so much. Later, you can ask her girl what she likes to eat. Don't neglect her."

He is also a poor child, but he forgot to ask his husband what he is here for. If he comes to the academy specially to visit, he will be treated well.

As Mrs. Yuan said, there are many varieties of begonias here, ranging from single to double petals, red, pink, green, purple, and all kinds of colors. It is dazzling to see. The most important thing is that the begonias here are

They are all arranged casually and have a sense of fun.

It's just that Chuxue didn't expect that just to enjoy flowers, she would run into the man from last night again.
