After the rebirth, I lay in the arms of His Highness and won

Chapter 60
Watch the clouds and water pavilions.

Exquisite tea utensils are placed on the carved wooden table, and there is a semi-circular sink more than one foot wide beside the table. Slender bamboo tubes go into the sink, and a trickle of water leaks out, which is clear and cool.

Several maidservants rolled up their sleeves and half-kneeled to wash the tea, brew it, and seal the pot.

Mrs. Ruan is sitting on the main seat, beside her are the big house and the three main rooms as a foil, and directly opposite are the Lin family of the Pei family, the Yang family of the Qin family, and the wives of each house.

Eight or nine noble ladies, with appropriate expressions, were gentle and reserved in their gestures and gestures.

With slender hands, Yang picked up the jade cup and took a sip, saying:

"Sister Ruan has a heart. In this weather, it's comfortable to drink cold spring tea, but are you using silver needles?"

"It's good that you like it." Ruan Yun smiled modestly, "I don't quite understand this. The Marquis brought it back a few days ago and said it was a gift from the Holy One."

"The tribute from Guangfu Prefecture." Lin Shi casually pushed away the cup, gathered the silk gauze and said, "there are many in the house, I have a weak spleen and stomach, and I never drink cold ones."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I was negligent." He hurriedly called the big maid, "Luo Mei, go make a pot of scented tea and put a spoonful of locust honey."

After explaining, he asked politely: "I remember that the general's wife likes to drink like this, I don't know if it's right?"

"Hmm." He nodded slightly, and his posture was full.

Yang's eyes are on the nose and the nose is on the heart, so it's inconvenient to say more.

Although general Pei and the Marquis of Chu were equal in terms of status in the court, Lin was born in a family of officials and his father was an elder in the court, so he seemed superior in every way.

At first, he even disdained to sit at the same table with Mrs. Ruan, but in recent years, seeing that her seat is secure, his attitude has improved.

"In the entire Qingxiao Kingdom, Dongling only accepts two hundred students, and our three families have seven or eight places."

Chen, the second resident of Pei's mansion, wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said overjoyed that his son was also one of them.

"Look at your worthless appearance." Lin sneered at her family, not to mention being soft-hearted, "What's so exciting, it's just expected."

Chen's face turned red and then pale, and she smiled apologetically and said: "Han'er and Ling Fei are incomparable."

"My son is very strong, and he hasn't worried about it since he was a child." Lin said with pride, "If Ding Shibo, who reviewed the papers, advocated Confucianism, and Ling Fei's articles were biased towards Mohism, how could he Fall to sixth?"

"It's a pity. I heard that No.1 is the son of a commoner. How can he be better than the rich and well-educated Young Master Pei?"

"You should ask them to change the person and re-mark the test paper,"

Several women echoed each other with righteous indignation.

Ruan Yun and Yang Shi listened silently without interrupting.

"It's okay." Lin waved his hand as if he didn't care, "It's just the ranking. Ling Fei's excellence is not only in knowledge. As the son of a general, he goes to the army to practice every year. Don't look at him thin, let me tell you, riding a horse Archery is no problem..."

"Ma'am, it's bad—"

A young servant staggered into the water pavilion, beads of sweat dripping down, showing his eagerness to run.

"What's the matter?" She was interrupted when she was talking, and Lin's face was dissatisfied, "It's not that I talk too much, as the mistress, I have to discipline the servants well, and those who are reckless like this should be dragged out. Slap yourself ten times, and report again."

Hearing this, the boy's eyes widened and he covered his mouth in panic.

"Ah Hong doesn't usually do this." Ruan Yun explained lightly, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, tell me in detail, what happened?"

"Fourth, Miss Four... kicked a young master into the pond!"

"Jiuqing?"

The wives of the Chu family felt incredible.

The little girl is so soft and sticky that she can hardly step on an ant.

"Which young master is this...?"

Ah Hong shrunk his neck and said anxiously: "General Pei's eldest son, Pei Lingfei."

"what?!"

The roar of broken sound resounded over the water pavilion.
