Farming and teaching across different worlds

It's been on my mind for a long time.

At the end of the Qiaotou market, next to the small hospitality courtyard, there used to be a wasteland of rocks, but now the villagers sorted it out and planted sunflowers and rapeseed.

When the season comes, there will be a sea of ​​golden flowers, which is too beautiful to behold. Before that, people often mentioned it in Ji Xiuran's ear, and he remembered it.

Speaking of which, Ji Xiuran had only seen such pictures before, but hadn't seen it with his own eyes, so he was a little excited when he thought about it.

It's a pity that they came back in the wrong season, the rapeseed had already been seeded, and they were all collected and sent to the oil mill.

In the past, Ji Xiuran only saw a piece of reddish-brown land.

Some sunflowers can still catch up with the end of the flowering period, and most of them can only see the flower discs with large and full fruits.

It is impossible to see the golden sea of ​​flowers.

Ji Xiuran was walking on the small path in the middle of the flower field, looking at the sunflowers in front of him with some disappointment, and said with regret: "The timing is unlucky, and I won't be able to see the magnificent scene of the sea of ​​flowers."

Shi Jingchen looked up, and didn't quite understand Ji Xiuran's pursuit. In his opinion, rape and sunflowers are just used to extract oil, and there's nothing good about the flowers.

However, seeing Ji Xiuran's disappointed look, he didn't speak out what was in his heart, but raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, comforting him: "If you can't see it this year, you can wait for next year."

There is still a long time to come, and there will always be a chance to see it.

Ji Xiuran cheered up after hearing this, looked at Shi Jingchen with a smile and said in agreement: "Third brother, you are right."

Thinking of this, he no longer struggled, and walked leisurely in the sunflower field in a good mood.

Although there are no flowers to look at, the tall sunflowers stand neatly in the field, blocking the strong sunlight at noon, making them very comfortable.

The wind blows, and the unique scent of balsamic is also inexplicably relaxing.

Ji Xiuran took Shi Jingchen's hand, and walked leisurely among the big fruit-filled flowerpot.

While the two were enjoying their leisurely time, they suddenly heard a loud laugh: "Xiu Ran is really enjoying it here, let us find it easily."

Ji Xiuran looked back, and saw Li Wen in a blue straight gown, Liu Xiang in a light-colored cloth robe, and Shu Mingyan in a moon-white gown walking towards them.

Ji Xiuran cupped his hands at them with surprise on his face, and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Li Wen accused him very dissatisfied and said: "We came to look for you when we knew you were back, but who knew that you were not at home, so let us look for it. Fortunately, someone in the village saw you coming this way, so they gave us pointed a way."

When they heard that the Taoist priests of Qingyue had returned, they knew that Ji Xiuran and the others should also be home, so they made an appointment to visit together.

Unexpectedly, the timing was not coincidental, when they arrived at Ji's house, Ji Xiuran and the others had just gone out.

They searched for them non-stop, asking several villagers along the way before finding them here.

Hearing his words, Ji Xiuran raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "That's really hard work for you, I'm very sorry, little brother."

Only then did Li Wen put away the dissatisfaction on his face, and nodded with feigned reserve: "It's good that you know, so...don't forget the good wine and tea."

After hearing this, Ji Xiuran cast a sideways glance at him speechlessly.

Still Liu Xiang couldn't see it, he coughed, and said, "We prepared some tea at the Tingbo Pavilion, let's sit there and chat while drinking tea."

You can't just stand on the side of the road and talk all the time.

This Tingbo Pavilion is a newly built pavilion beside the Wenshui River. From the pavilion, you can not only clearly see the scenery over the stone bridge, but also the green water surface of the Wenshui River, and the beautiful scenery of Daqing Mountain and the opposite bank. Unobstructed.

After it was completed, it was quite sought after by these literati, and it was also one of their favorite places to go.

Naturally, Ji Xiuran wanted to see them, and when he received their invitation, his eyes lit up, he looked back at Shi Jingchen, and silently asked for his opinion.

Shi Jingchen nodded with a smile, Ji Xiuran then turned to them and said: "Since that's the case, then brothers should lead the way."

Liu Xiang stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation, and walked to the Wenshui River first.

Li Wen wanted to talk to Ji Xiuran, but was also dragged away by Liu Xiang.

This person is too blind to see, didn't he see that Xiu Ran and Shi Jingchen were walking side by side, and went over to join in the fun.

Shu Mingyan kept watching with a calm expression all the time, and didn't speak. Seeing that they agreed to go back, he just raised his heels with a calm expression.

Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen followed behind them, walking side by side, looking at the people in front of them, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but slightly twitch.

He said to Shi Jingchen in a low voice: "I never thought that these people could get together and get along so harmoniously."

No wonder Ji Xiuran was surprised, this Shu Mingyan came from a family background, and treated others with a certain arrogance, while Liu Xiang and Li Wen, although they came from poor families, had their own integrity.

Both sides have their own insistence, and they are not the ones who deliberately flatter them, Ji Xiuran always thought that they would not get along, but now it is surprising that they get along well.

At the beginning, he proposed that Li Wen teach in the academy, but was rejected, but after returning to Daoluzhou, Li Wen experienced some things, and Li Wen was a little disheartened, and finally chose to come to the academy.

Entering the academy, you will be attracted by the simple and rich life here.

Besides, Liu Xiang, an acquaintance, was there, so he happily stayed.

But Shu Mingyan was beyond Ji Xiuran's expectation.

Shu Mingyan's natal family was implicated because they didn't choose a good team at the time, and fell into decline.

Shu Mingyan's father began to treat his wife and son with contempt.

This change made him grow up rapidly, and he was no longer the casual noble son he used to be.

After settling down with his mother, he didn't want to go back to that ruthless Shu's house, so he wandered around.

When I came to Qingshan Village again, I accidentally came to Qingshan Academy, so I came up with the idea of ​​staying in the academy to teach.

At that time, the husband also wrote a letter to ask Ji Xiuran, after Ji Xiuran nodded in agreement, Shu Mingyan stayed.

His accomplishments in calligraphy and painting are comparable to few people in Great Xia, how could Ji Xiuran let go of such a great master.

And since there is such a master, the reputation of the academy has increased a bit.

As for causing trouble to the upper body that the husband is worried about, given his status, he doesn't need to care about it at all.

Even if he resigned, wouldn't Shi Jingchen still be there, it would be more than enough to protect the academy and these people in the academy.

In this way, Shu Mingyan stayed. Although his temper was still cold, he unexpectedly got in tune with Liu Xiang.

The two often met in the beautiful scenery of Daqing Mountain to enjoy the scenery and drink tea.

Even if one is immersed in creation, the other can be at ease.

And Li Wen was an acquaintance. After he came, he quickly joined their small group, going in and out together.

Shu Mingyan didn't have any feelings for this newcomer, and when the three of them were together, he was always immersed in his own creative world, and he didn't feel any hindrance, but he didn't pay too much attention.

But gradually, he found that although this person chattered a bit, he was also warm-hearted and helped him a few times unintentionally, so he accepted this new friend from his heart.

The few people became close friends.

……

Several people came together, and after a short walk, they came to Timbo Pavilion.

Ji Xiuran looked up and took advantage of the protruding terrain on the Wenshui embankment to build an octagonal pavilion with carved beams and painted buildings, which was very exquisite.

Next to it is the path along the river, and the willows hanging down from the weeping willows beside the road are swaying with the autumn wind, and against the light of the water, they are even more graceful.

Ji Xiuran paused to appreciate the beautiful scenery, and then took Shi Jingchen's hand into the pavilion, and sat down according to his seat.

After bowing hands with everyone, he picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Before he had time to taste it carefully, he was about to turn his head and talk to Shi Jingchen when he was attracted by the beautiful scenery outside the pavilion.

I can't help but think about looking at the right side carefully, the panorama of the stone bridge comes into view, the figures shuttle back and forth on the stone bridge, the reflection of the stone bridge in the water, and the dense tree shadows in the distance form a pair of Breathtaking beauty.

He has never seen this stone bridge from this angle, and it looks even more charming when he sees it this way.

I couldn't help showing a bit of surprise in my eyes, and after admiring it for a while, I picked up the teacup at hand again, put it to my mouth to take a sip, and turned my head to look to the other side.

The Wenshui River is rippling and rushing away, encircling the green hills on the bank like a jade belt.

Between movement and stillness, people feel the rigidity and softness of the harmony between water and mountains.

Ji Xiuran felt it with great interest for a while before turning around and looking behind him, which was the direction of Daqing Mountain encircling Qingshan Village.

The dense mist from the Daqing Mountain is intertwined with the graceful cooking smoke from the houses in the Qingshan Village. The fairy air is mixed with the human smoke, making it difficult for people to tell whether they have come to the fairyland or are still in the mortal world.

After feeling it carefully, he slowly let out a mouthful of turbid air, sat upright, and his eyes naturally fell to the front.

I don't know when there was a large piece of red flower amaryllis on the other side.

Now is the flowering period, the bright red ones are not mixed with certain different colors, and the fiery red ones hit people's eyes.

Ji Xiuran looked at the unexpected beauty on the other side with amazement, and it took him a while to calm down, still looking at the other side with deep appreciation in his eyes.

He couldn't help but sighed to the crowd: "It is said that Tingbo Pavilion has scenery on all sides, and the four seasons are different. Now Jun is lucky to see this autumn scenery, and I am deeply honored."

Everyone has been sitting there with a relaxed expression since just now, drinking tea, watching the scenery outside attentively, and no one opened their mouths.

After listening to Ji Xiuran's words
