Chapter 089 What are you doing?
At this time, Liu Xi, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked in: "Brother Xuanlang, are we going to Santou Peak for the spring outing tomorrow?"
Meng Xuanlang checked the weather and said, "Let's go. We couldn't go last time because it rained. The weather has been nice these past few days." He said to Ouyang En and Xie Jian, "The peach blossoms are in full bloom now. The scenery on this mountain is truly breathtaking."
"Then I'll go to meet my elder sister. She's in a bad mood. Let's take her out for a walk." Liu Xi happily ran to meet her elder sister.
When Liu Zhiyue came out, everyone was already waiting for her outside.
Chen Heng saw that Miss Liu's face was indeed not very good. This beauty was beautiful, but she had a weird look.
Santou Peak and Boyun Mountain belong to the same mountain range, both of which are famous for their towering peaks.
From a distance, they could already see the mountain covered with pink peach blossoms, clusters and clumps of them, blooming all over the mountain, embellishing the entire mountain forest like a paradise.
"There are quite a few people." Ouyang Enyu.
Looking at the crowds at the foot of the mountain, Meng Xuanlang sighed, "There are far fewer people this year than in previous years. When the snowstorm hit, many people lost their loved ones and homes. How could they still have such leisurely time?"
As they walked towards the mountainside, they admired the beautiful scenery around them.
"Brother Ouyang, please walk slower. Are you here to enjoy the flowers or to climb the mountain?" Meng Xuanlang laughed and shouted when he saw that Ouyang En had left him and his group far behind.
"You weak scholars, it's really suffocating to hang out with you." Ouyang En was waiting for them in the corner.
Liu Xi was a little tired after walking, so she asked Liu Zhiyue beside her: "Sister, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"
Liu Zhiyue kept an eye on Chen Heng and Xie Jian from time to time. The two of them were talking and laughing together. Whenever Chen Heng saw a beautiful flower branch, she would stop to admire it, while Xie Jian would stay by her side and wait quietly for her to enjoy it.
Seeing the girl stop, the maid beside her hurriedly put the stool beside her and said, "Miss, Master, it's cool here."
Liu Xi sat down and saw Xie Jian talking to his wife not far away. He said, "Sister, I heard from Brother Xuanlang that Xie Jian is quite remarkable. He said before that he would definitely get the top three places, but this time he was wrong and got the last place. But if he can get the Juren and Jinshi degrees, it would be a great achievement for a commoner."
"How could such a person pass the exam?" Liu Zhiyue snorted coldly, "If I were an examiner, I would never let such a person pass the Juren and Jinshi exams."
Liu Xi looked curious. "Such a person? Is Xie Jian a bad person? I heard that it was thanks to his help that the people of Southern Ming survived the snowstorm so quickly."
"What's the meaning?"
Liu Xi recounted what Xuan Lang had said, "Xie Jian's experience is worthy of sympathy. His father was unjustly imprisoned and executed, and his mother and brother have disappeared. He has been ostracized and looked down upon by others, which has made him a bit cold-tempered. But Xuan Lang said that he has a righteous character, is extremely knowledgeable, and never flatters others. He is a person worth making close friends with."
"A good character?" This kind of person will do anything to achieve his goal. Liu Zhiyue thought that she was plotted to death by him, and he was a murderer.
My elder sister's reaction was a little strange. Liu Xi said, "From what Brother Xuanlang said, I think Xie Jian is indeed a good person. His wife is also a good person. She never left him when he was in humble circumstances. Just like when Xie Jian passed the imperial examination..."
Liu Zhiyue's eyes suddenly became fierce, and she knocked over the tea that the maid brought to her.
Chen Heng was admiring the mountain of pink peaches. She had never been in such a good mood since she came here. When she heard the sound of breaking lamps, she turned around.
Lady Liu is in a bad mood, and no one knows what's going on.
"The flowers ahead are blooming better." Xie Jian glanced at Liu Zhiyue coldly and pulled Chen Heng forward.
There are several pavilions halfway up the mountain, but not many people there.
"Ajian, don't always stick with your sister-in-law." Meng Xuanlang pulled Xie Jian over and called Liu Xi and Ouyang En to go to another pavilion. Men should be with men.
