The courtyard is deep, it's easy to get lost in this huge garden.
Cui Xiaoxin's courtyard is located deep in the Cui mansion's garden, she likes quiet. Back then when her father and uncle fought fiercely, she was taken away by her aunt and fled to Jiangnan. After a few years, when she came back, the small courtyard was still the same, but the scenery in front of her has become unfamiliar.
At that time, the tender morning glories had already climbed over the courtyard wall, the Tiandu cherry blossom that she personally planted had grown to the height of a person. The purple flowers bloomed beautifully, making her, a flower lover, want to reach out and caress every petal.
At that time when she planted it, her thoughts were pure, she did not expect to reap the feelings she has now.
"Xiaoxin — – Xiaoxin — –" A familiar voice sounded, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Cui Xiaoxin turned to look at her cousin, Yan Xiangma, who was striding over, and said: "Cousin, you're in such a hurry, what's the matter?"
"Not good. Li Muyang came first in the exam. "Yan Xiangma ran over to Cui Xiaoxin's side and shouted.
"What?" Cui Xiaoxin looked puzzled, asking: "What first?"
"Li Muyang, that kid came first in the exam, the first in the entire West Wind Kingdom, how is that possible?"
Cui Xiaoxin was stunned, then relaxed, a smile gradually blossomed on her face as she said: "I should have guessed it."
"Guessed what?"
"Only the questions that he can answer, then it must be correct. This year's exam questions are very difficult, and there are a lot of questions that I have explained to him before. He answered all of them, so naturally it's all correct. First in the exam is a matter of course. "
"It's hard to believe, did that kid cheat in the exam?"
Cui Xiaoxin's brows lightly wrinkled as she said: "Cousin, have you ever seen someone cheat?"
"That's not true. I wasn't in the same exam hall as him, so how would I know if he cheated or not? "
"Since cousin did not see Li Muyang cheating, then don't easily deny a person's efforts — -Because you saw others achieve such results, but you don't know how much effort they put in to achieve this result." Cui Xiaoxin's expression was serious, her words carried a hint of admonishment.
"I was just saying. At that time, I heard that you were tutoring a male student every day, so I asked someone to get his information. But when I looked at it, well, it nearly blinded me. What kind of people do you know? He's a pig — -Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying Li Muyang is a pig. I just find it strange. How can there be a freak who always scores last in the whole school? How can he perform so consistently? " Yan Xiangma chuckled, blinked his eyes and looked at Cui Xiaoxin with a grin. "Cousin is so nervous about him, could it be — —"
"Cousin, don't talk nonsense." Cui Xiaoxin sternly interrupted Yan Xiangma's teasing.
Yan Xiangma looked around and found that there was no one around to listen, only then did he feel relieved.
If his careless words were to reach the ears of someone, perhaps cousin Xiaoxin would be fine, but the black sheep far away in Jiangnan would suffer a thunderous blow.
"Cousin, don't blame me, I was just joking." Yan Xiangma stopped smiling and said: "My father rewarded him with two thousand gold coins and praised him as' Jiangnan's famous colt '. Now there's a lot of discussion in Tiandu, many people say they want to see what kind of three heads and six arms Li Muyang has — —"
The corner of Cui Xiaoxin's mouth curved into a sneer as she said: "The one who kills the noble horse is by the roadside."
"What do you mean? What do you mean the one who kills the noble horse is by the roadside? "Yan Xiangma asked aloud.
"It's written in 'Custom Guide': The long history of the horse is fat, the spectator is fast, the rider is happy with his words, he gallops endlessly until he dies." Cui Xiaoxin explained aloud, looking at Tiandu's cherry blossoms in front of her full of worries.
"Cousin, what do you mean?" Yan Xiangma's expression turned serious, his face filled with disbelief as he said: "Are you suspecting that my father deliberately praised Li Muyang to death?"
"Otherwise, how do you explain the two thousand gold coins?"
"Maybe it's just because my father admires his talent, so he rewarded him."
"What about 'Jiangnan's famous colt'?"
"For Jiangnan's talent to become famous, why not?"
"Cousin, what do you think of uncle's impression of Li Muyang?"
“----”
"Because he and I know each other, so it's impossible for uncle to like him. Am I right? "
"Perhaps after this exam, his impression will change — —"
Cui Xiaoxin smiled, shook her head and said: "Big shots like them, why would they care about an exam result? Whether it's a small exam or a big exam, it's just an exam. Even if Li Muyang came first in the kingdom's exam, so what? In which year did the kingdom not have a first in the exam? Well, we don't need to argue about this, when will Li Muyang arrive at Tiandu? "
"I don't know." Yan Xiangma shook his head.
"You don't know? Isn't he going to West Wind? The start of school, every new student has to report to school — — "
"Li Muyang did not go to Westwind University." Yan Xiangma said.
Cui Xiaoxin was stunned, a faint sense of loss in her heart.
After a long while, she asked aloud: "Where is he going?"
"I heard he's going to Starry Sky Academy. Where is Starry Sky Academy? Is it within the borders of the kingdom? How come I've never heard of it before. This school wouldn't be a scam, right? "
"Starry Sky Academy?" Cui Xiaoxin's face was filled with surprise.
"Xiaoxin, what kind of school is Starry Sky Academy? How come I've never heard of it before? "
"Because you didn't go in."
"What do you mean I didn't go in? Did I apply for it? But I never knew about this — — What kind of lousy school is that? Even young master doesn't want them, it seems the school isn't that great. Once I find out their address, I'll definitely tear down their school's gate. I, Yan Xiangma, am the most famous hedonistic son of rich parents in Jiangnan city, what can't I do? "
"— — This matter, you really can't do it."
"Why?"
"Because Starry Sky Academy doesn't have a gate."
“----”
While the brother and sister were chatting, Cui Xiaoxin's former servant Cui 'er trotted over and shouted in a sweet and melodious voice: "Miss, Miss, the young lady of the Lu Family is here, she said she wants to see you."
"Lu Qiji?" Cui Xiaoxin's eyes were misty, pondering over the deep meaning of the Lu Family's visit.
"Yes. She's talking to my mother in the living room. She said she heard that Miss was attacked in Jiangnan, she has been worried about you and brought a lot of gifts — — My mother told me to inform you in advance, I'll accompany her in a moment. "
"Lu Qiji? That purple-haired demoness? " Yan Xiangma's face lit up with surprise, constantly rubbing his hands together and said: "I heard she's the most beautiful woman in Tiandu, I've been looking for an opportunity to meet her, I didn't expect to bump into her today — —"
"Our family's Miss is the most beautiful woman in Tiandu." Cui 'er pouted and retorted angrily.
"Yes, yes, Cui 'er is right." It was only then that Yan Xiangma realised he had made a huge mistake. His face did not turn red and his heart did not skip a beat, he calmly said: "When I heard this rumour, my heart was filled with contempt and disdain. I don't believe that there's a woman more beautiful than my cousin Xiaoxin in this world? The reason why I want to see Lu Qiji is to examine her with a critical eye, I want her to know that the difference between her and my cousin Xiaoxin's beauty is at least a mountain of purple — — don't you think so, cousin Xiaoxin? "
Cui Xiaoxin was unmoved, she was not angry at her cousin for saying Lu Qiji is the most beautiful woman in Tiandu, nor was she happy that Cui 'er said she is the most beautiful woman.
The doubt in her eyes was still unresolved, but she said to Cui 'er: "Go tell mother, I'm very happy to have Miss Lu Family visit."
"Yes, Miss." Cui 'er answered and went back to report.
Yan Xiangma looked up at the courtyard next to him, waving his fan and repeatedly praised: "A winding path leads to a secluded place, this is cousin's courtyard — — Speaking of which, I've never seen the scenery of cousin's courtyard before, there's no time like today — —"
"Cousin, accompany me to receive Miss Lu Family." Cui Xiaoxin is also a tactful person, she smiled and said: "We're all young people, cousin will live in Tiandu for a long time, it's good to get to know each other. Maybe you two will have a lot of common topics? "
Yan Xiangma was overjoyed, he cupped his hands and said: "Since cousin strongly urged me to stay, then I'll accompany you to meet the Tiandu demon girl. I want to see what's so outstanding about her that she can stand side by side with my cousin Xiaoxin as one of the three bright moons of the capital — — "
"Don't say things like Tiandu demon girl again."
"Hey, I'm just saying it in front of cousin, we're family anyway. It's not a big deal. "
