September is full of flowers

Not long after Tang Jiuyue finished speaking, Shen Man saw some people slowly approaching the desolate field.

"What's going on?" Shen Man asked with his ears pricked up.

Tang Jiuyue has already left the field, her side face is illuminated by the setting sun like a wonderful figure painting, "The people gathered in front of my uncle's carriage are all ordinary people, and those who can find here are the real candidates. In fact, among them Some came months earlier."

"A few months earlier?" Shen Man also rolled up his trouser legs, and followed Tang Jiuyue to the field, "Could it be that this topic of Tianwenmen has been out for a long time?"

"Yes." Tang Jiuyue slowly walked towards the center of the field.

Shen Man concentrated for a moment, "Since you are looking for the most delicious white radish in the world, why do you all come to this field ridge instead of going to the vegetable market to find old farmers and ask them. Compared with other people, old farmers should be the ones who know the most about planting."

"The radishes grown by the old farmers in the vegetable market are really ordinary. Do you think they can really pass the eyes of the examiners of the Tianwen Gate?" Tang Jiuyue looked at Shen Man, with probing and suspicious eyes, "No matter what other people grow, they can't compare with the ones cultivated by myself. .”

Shen Man watched those people get off the ground one after another like Tang Jiuyue, and thought about what she said just now, and realized something, "So, the reason why you gathered at the weather gate is because the best places in the capital are all in the weather gate." , The whole world's planting technology is also in the weather gate. You don't want to find the world's most delicious white radish, but want to plant it yourself, so you all came here by coincidence!"

Tang Jiuyue nodded and said, "Indeed."

Shen Man smiled, "Miss Tang, have you ever thought that maybe this topic is not as profound as you imagined, it's just because someone in Taige wants to eat delicious white radish?"

If Tang Jiuyue was in office at the moment, Shen Man could confidently say that it must be because Tang Jiuyue wanted to eat carrots.But as the saying goes, there are such apprentices as there are masters, and the gate supervisor Zou Yan who can teach Tang Jiuyue such a disciple must not be a serious role.

"Perhaps as you said, the reason we are working so hard is because some people want to eat radishes." Tang Jiuyue bent down and fiddled with the leaves of one of the radishes. The leaves were a little sleepy, but Tang Jiuyue When you touch it, it immediately becomes energetic and full of vigor.

She straightened up and patted the dirt off her hands, and said slowly to Shen Man, "But as long as he wants to eat radishes, we will make the best radishes. If you want to be freer in the future, the best thing is to be yourself Become this person who eats radishes, and in the future, there will definitely be a lot of people who will think of ways to give you radishes of various flavors and shapes."

Shen Man looked at her with mixed feelings in his heart.She had never seen Tang Jiuyue like this before in her dreams, she thought she was always a genius who had no desires or desires.Whatever Tang Jiuyue wanted would be delivered to her naturally.Therefore, Tang Jiuyue is the most unruly character.But in front of her, every word faintly reveals her pursuit and yearning for Taige.

Shen Man smiled and pointed at Tang Jiuyue's radish and said, "I think your radish is almost mature."

Tang Jiuyue glanced at her and said, "I built a shed next to it, let's go in and have a cup of tea."

"it is good."

Tang Jiuyue's so-called "shed" looks simple and unpretentious from the outside, but the interior layout is extremely extravagant.The outside is framed on the field ridge with a few wooden stakes, covered with a layer of bamboo, and it is stable.When I entered, I regretted that not only the furry tiger skin was covered on the floor, but also a low table made of ebony was placed. On the low table was an exquisite fruit plate filled with seasonal fruits.

The two sat down separately, and Tang Jiuyue poured tea in silence.Shen Man looked around and found a finger-thick rope hanging from the corners of the four walls, and a bell was hanging on each rope, so he asked, "What is this rope for?"

Tang Jiuyue put down the teapot, "Just pull it and you'll know."

Shen Man stretched out his hand and tugged on the string, and the bell rang softly, crisp and sweet.Then, the bamboo curtains hanging around were rolled up with a clatter, and the shed they were sitting on suddenly became a bamboo platform with ventilation on all sides, and the scenery of the fields on all sides could be seen.

Shen Man happily said, "What a delicate design."

Tang Jiuyue didn't answer for a long time, and then said slowly, "Although it's quiet and peaceful now, and the scenery is pleasant, something will ruin the scenery in a while."

Shen Man looked at Tang Jiuyue in confusion, and Tang Jiuyue also looked at her, with a secretive expression on her face, making it impossible to see her emotions at the moment.

While speaking, there was a faint sound of piano playing from a distance. The player who played the piano was extremely steady, but also faintly ruthless.Shen Man had never heard such a weird piano sound, it was fast and slow, high and low.There are often people who are called talented men and talented women playing the long piano, and there is often a theme, through which the emotions of the time are expressed.

But this person who plays the qin seems to have an extremely unrestrained temperament, and the sound of the qin is not accurate, he can play it however he wants, ordinary people play it like this, it will be unpleasant and harsh, but this person's playing is messy, but the lingering sound is lingering Unconsciously, I was immersed in it, and I couldn't help but want to listen to it.

Tang Jiuyue saw Shen Man leaning forward slightly, looking very interested, and asked, "Do you know the rhythm?"

Shen Man shook his head and said, "I don't know much about it, but I think this person is very powerful."

"Why do you say that?"

"I don't know why, but I think she is amazing."

So Tang Jiuyue stood up and suggested, "Then let's go and see the piano player together."

The two followed the sound of the piano, Shen Man and Tang Jiuyue walked side by side.The path was rugged and muddy, and Shen Man could feel Tang Jiuyue sneaking glances at him from time to time along the way.When I remembered that when I met her, she also had such a icy and cold demeanor, but after getting along for a long time, you will find that she is a person who is cold on the outside and warm on the heart.Shen Man was not surprised by her vigilance at this time.When she peeked at her again, Shen Man simply turned her head and looked directly into her eyes. When the other party froze for a moment, she grinned and continued walking forward.

On the field ridge in front, a young girl sat cross-legged, with a carved long piano on her lap.The girl was covered with a veil, her long hair was tied by a headband, she was not tall but had a graceful figure.At this moment, she was facing the two of them sideways, and she continued to sit as if no one else was there, and she was facing a field. There was no crop anywhere in that field, except for two radish leaves in the middle, which must be her treasures.

"Girl, what are you doing?" Shen Man didn't expect to meet her, and he was overjoyed for a while, so he walked over and asked her.

The girl raised her eyes, "Why is it you again?" She shifted her gaze from Shen Man to Tang Jiuyue on the side, then suddenly stopped playing the piano, picked it up and hugged it in her arms, stood up respectfully She saluted Tang Jiuyue respectfully, and said in a slow tone, "Miss Tang."

Tang Jiuyue said, "Miss Qingning."

Qing Ning continued, "Hello Miss Tang."

Tang Jiuyue replied, "Hello, Miss Qingning."

"Miss Tang, long time no see."

"Well, long time no see."

"How's your turnip?"

"My radishes are pretty good," Tang Jiuyue rolled her eyes, "How's your radish?"

"Please worry about Miss Tang, my white radish should be good. These days I change the music every day. It is said that listening to the music in the evening is the best time to relax, so I play the piano in the evening, but I am afraid of thieves in the nearby fields. I’m also secretly listening, so I can lower the tune.” Speaking of this, she sighed deeply, “It’s a pity that Miss Tang’s radish field is far away from here, otherwise your white radish can also hear mine. Once the song is done, it will definitely grow better."

"Miss Lime, please worry. My radish should be deaf like me and don't know the rhythm. After listening to your piano, I just want to sleep."

"It doesn't matter," Qing Ning said, rubbing her chin seriously, "I often hear people say that children need to sleep more to grow fat quickly."

"That's a child, not a carrot." Shen Man couldn't help interjecting.

Lime said firmly, "It's the same with radishes, my radishes are my children."

Shen Man was speechless.

Tang Jiuyue said, "When we grow radishes, we have to hand them in for evaluation, and maybe they will be chopped up for cooking. Do you want to chop up your children and steam them or pickle them?"

Lime, "..."

Shen Man, "..."

Shen Man didn't want the topic to become too embarrassing, pointed to a field next to him and asked, "What is this person doing again?"

Qing Ning cleared her throat and hugged the piano, "He is holding a pen and paper in his hand, with some calculation formulas densely written on it, he should be an examinee of arithmetic, and he is measuring the length, width, soil weight and other messy things of the radish field. I guess this guy really has no means, but he is much better than the one over there."

As she spoke, she pointed in a direction, where there was a middle-aged man with a bitter face.Qing Ning said, "This person has learned a skill called 'Character Measurement', which can deceive some people on weekdays, but it will not be a problem when encountering radishes."

Shen Man understood, and couldn't help laughing, "Luobo doesn't know how to write, no matter how good his 'writing skills' are, it's useless!"

"Did you see the other man with an astrolabe in his hand?"

"I see," Shen Man replied, "he is holding an astrolabe in his hand. Could it be that he is a student studying astronomy?"

"That's right," Qing Ning said, "he came all day long in the evening, sat on the ground with an astrolabe, looked at the stars and the moon, ignored no one, just muttered to himself, Sometimes I really want to knock him out with the piano, it’s so annoying.”

Tang Jiuyue said, "He wants to use the theory of astrology to calculate the fate of radish..."

Qing Ning said weakly, "Astrology is said to be unfathomable, but it is the most powerful Taoism. It could have predicted the fate of the country, but..."

Shen Man heard this a lot, but at first he thought it was weird, but in the end, a few fat white radishes kept popping up in his mind, dancing around in circles...

She tapped her head with a headache, and said in a low voice, "It seems that I really don't want to see white radish for a while..."
