A few days later, Mrs. Zheng even handed an invitation to invite Xu to visit her house.

Usually, it's not easy for Xu to go out, but this time I heard that Mrs. Zheng was looking for Xu. The old lady didn't mean to be embarrassed at all, so she answered directly. When he went, Xu took Song Rong with him.

As for Song Yu... Song Yu is still young and doesn't know the rules very well. It's easy to make trouble when he goes to someone else's house. Even if Xu wanted to take it, the old lady was not at ease.

This time I went to Gusu Academy. The academy is not in Gusu City, but on an island in the middle of the lake called Mingxin lake.

Suzhou has a lot of water, large and small, and many lakes. Mingxin lake is a holy land in Suzhou. It is very different from Honghu Lake next to Qinghu's home.

Mingxin lake has a lot of beautiful scenery, and the surrounding environment has been renovated. Among the Suzhou academies, this is the best one in Suzhou. Now there are people who have retired from the Imperial Academy to teach here.

Not only the people in Suzhou City want to study here, but also many people from several prefectures nearby are attracted by their names. It's just that this Gusu academy can't be entered by anyone, otherwise it would have been overcrowded.

Mrs. Zheng is the wife of the head of Gusu Academy. Her status is even higher than those ladies. After all, everyone wants their children to enter Gusu Academy. Can you get in if you offend Mrs. Zheng?

Even those who don't look forward to Mrs. Zheng's help have to worry. If she doesn't succeed, it will be bad!

Song Rong and Xu Shi are going to Mingxin Lake today.

After leaving the city, the carriage took about half an hour to reach Mingxin lake. From the central island of Mingxin lake to the outside, there is no bridge, only a boat. Xu and Song Rong had to get out of the carriage.

Fortunately, outside the lake, there is a special house to take care of the visitors and some servants who can't follow the past.

As soon as the two talents reached the stone platform by the lake, an old man came by with a boat.

"Is it Mrs. song and Miss Song?" the old man's voice was slightly hoarse.

The old boatman's pass is well supported. There is no feeling of shaking at all, and there is not a long way. Standing on the shore, you can see the island inside.

From a distance, you can see the pavilions on the island. When you get closer, you can hear the sound of reading from inside.

Song Rong secretly said that such academies should really be built in such a place. If they were in the city, there would be no way to live around. The sound of reading is good, but they will feel noisy when they listen.

The water of Mingxin lake is clear, and there are lotus flowers in it. Now these lotus flowers only grow green leaves and have not seen flowers and bones! Song Rong thought in her heart that if she came to have a look in midsummer, the scenery must be very beautiful.

As soon as I got to the island in the middle of the lake, there were servant girls waiting here.

The servant girl took Song Rong and Xu to bypass the backyard from the side path. Everyone knows that the path leads to the backyard where the chief lives. Therefore, few people come. It's also appropriate to let Xu and Song Rong go.

It's not good to see countless students all the way.

Xu's family is not shameful, but there are few men. It's always good.

After walking around for a while, Song Rong came to the backyard. Song Rong looked at the scenery of Mingxin Island, which is much more beautiful than ordinary houses. Living in such a place, you will even feel comfortable physically and mentally.

"Sister Xu, you can count it." Mrs. Zheng saw Xu and quickly got up to meet him.

Zheng Shi is wearing a light purple dress today, but she is bright and gorgeous. Even wearing such light colored clothes, people can't help looking more.

"Sister Rong is coming too. Let aunt have a look." Mrs. Zheng came over, took Song Rong's hand and said with a smile.

As she spoke, Song Rong felt her hands cool. Looking down, she saw that Mrs. Zheng had put a jade bracelet on Song Rong's hand.

The bracelet is engraved with cloud patterns. It is bright and has no defects. It is really a valuable thing.

Song Ronglian hurriedly said, "aunt, I can't want this."

With that, Song Rong would take the table, which was obviously much larger, off her wrist.

Zheng smiled and said, "take it with you. No matter how valuable it is, it's not mine. Now, I'll return it to its original owner."

to its origin owner? Song Rong still doesn't understand what happened.

Then, listening to Xu's light sigh, he said, "you still keep this thing."

"I don't just keep it, but I always carry it... Sister Xu, to tell you the truth, I'm still jealous of you, even a little jealous." Zheng smiled and said.

Xu's look flashed a little guilt. Before he could open his mouth, Zheng took her to sit down, and then continued, "but now I want to open it!"

When he said this sentence, Zheng's tone rose slightly and was a little relaxed.

"There are some things that can't be forced. I used to think that you are not as good as me and don't deserve second brother song, but now think about it. In the eyes of second brother song, you should be the best in the world, but I don't deserve him..." Zheng's voice was filled with a sense.

Xu didn't know what to say. He could only say, "sister Zheng is excellent."

"In fact, before the second brother song had an accident, I wanted to open these things, but I couldn't pull down my face to see you. This drag is now... So that the last time I saw second brother song was more than ten years ago." Zheng sighed.

Listening to another person, talking about his husband in front of himself, Xu should have felt bad in his heart.

But the premise is that Song Yun is still there, but Song Yun has left now. What's the significance of their struggle? What's more, Xu's heart knows that Song Yun has never moved a trace of affection for Zheng. To Zheng's deep love for many years, she already has some guilt for Zheng in her heart.

Most men have three wives and four concubines, and she is so selfish that she doesn't let Zheng enter the house as a concubine... In some people's hearts, she is a jealous woman.

Now Zheng's words fall into Xu's ears, which will only make Xu feel sad together.

As he spoke, Zheng's eyes became red. He could feel Zheng's sadness and didn't fake it. It started from his heart.

The last time I saw Zheng, Song Rong didn't feel so deep. This time, Song Rong suddenly felt that Zheng probably really loved her father.
