Fang Zian was once again surprised by Shi Ningyue. This woman is really extraordinary. Although she is only an eighteen-year-old girl, she is obviously different from other women. Looking at her paintings, you can tell that what she has in mind is different from others.

.In fact, there are not many women these days who know how to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I am afraid that the vast majority of women only paint flowers, birds, fish and insects and other small romantic objects. But Shi Ningyue's paintings are splash-ink landscape paintings, with the meaning of the painting.

It is really rare to have the whole world in mind.

"With Young Master's guidance, this painting is completed. However, this is a painting that we completed together. Ningyue feels very honored. How about Young Master writing a signature for me?" Shi Ningyue said with a smile.

Fang Zian quickly waved his hand and said: "No, no, this is Miss Ningyue's painting. I cannot use fame and reputation to take away other people's beauty."

Shi Ningyue smiled and said: "What's the point? I draw for my own entertainment, and I don't put it out for others to see."

Fang Zian said: "Miss Ningyue has elegant taste, which is admirable. I don't want to ruin this painting. My handwriting is very ugly. I'll just wait until I practice calligraphy before I can show off my shame."

Shi Ningyue smiled and no longer forced herself. She realized that Fang Zian just refused, and the rest were all excuses.

"Okay. Master, please sit down. I want you to give me your advice on the lyrics I wrote. I can't refuse."

Fang Zian nodded and said, "Of course, I agreed."

Fang Zian sat on the chair. Shi Ningyue went to one side, reached out and rummaged through a pile of poem manuscripts in the corner of the desk, took out two pieces of paper and handed one to Fang Zian. Fang Zian took it, and the hairpin on the paper was

There is a small poem neatly written in Hua Xiaokai.

The poem says: The silk threads of the willows are made soft, and the wisps of smoke are woven into sorrow. Before the rain on the crabapples, the pear blossoms first snowed, and half of the spring is gone. Now it is difficult to remember the past, and I return to my dreams and wander around the Qin Tower. The lovesickness is only on the lilac branches and the cardamom tips.

Fang Zian couldn't help but smile. Shi Ningyue was indeed still a girl, and this poem was suitable for her age. A girl in Huaichun, in her prime, is always a little carefree, with inexplicable lovesickness in her heart. There is a sense of desolation in the poem.

, but they are just flashy words after all. However, the use of words and sentences is quite concise, such as "Begonias have not yet rained, pear blossoms have snowed before". For example, "Acacia is only on the lilac branches and the cardamom tips". These sentences are quite well written,

Fang Zian asked himself that he couldn't write it.

"Why are you laughing? Did I write the song "Eye Mei" very poorly?" Shi Ningyue said.

Fang Zian smiled and said: "The writing is very good, with the style of Li Yian's early lyrics. At your age, it is already very good to be able to write such lyrics. Miss Ningyue has indeed read a lot of poetry and written beautiful books.

.”

Shi Ningyue tilted her head and said, "Why do I feel that your words are not sincere? I felt something was wrong with your smile just now."

Fang Zixin said: Women are really very sensitive. They all have special powers and can always smell some hidden meanings. She just smiled and she noticed it.

"What's good is good, what's not good is bad, Master Fang, don't hide it. If Master Fang is not honest, then what is the purpose of asking Master for advice? Isn't it true that I will never make any progress?" Shi Ningyue said softly.

Fang Zian nodded and said: "But this poem is indeed very well written. The words and phrases are all skillful. There is no parallelism, but it is meaningful and fresh. So I said it is a bit like Li Yian's early poetry style. You remind me of Yi

The sentence in An's poem: There is no way to eliminate this feeling, so it's only on my brows and on my heart."

Shi Ningyue smiled and said, "Really? That's such an award."

Fang Zian said: "Of course it is true. However, since you said you wanted my advice, I will give you some advice. Don't be offended."

Shi Ningyue said: "I can't ask for it."

Fang Zian said: "What I said before was about the words used as words, in terms of the meaning of the words.

Let me give you two words: Young people don’t know the feeling of sorrow, so they forcefully talk about it in order to compose new words. You are not worried at all, so how can you talk about melancholy? It is winter now, but you are sad for spring. Isn’t it just idle sorrow? You don’t have deep lovesickness at all.

What else should I write about lovesickness?"

Shi Ningyue's face turned pale. She didn't expect Fang Zian's criticism to be so disrespectful, sharp and direct.

"Is that how you see it? I'm very sad." Shi Ningyue said softly.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken like this. My mouth easily offends people. I will apologize to Miss Ningyue." Fang Zian realized that he had been too venomous and hurriedly stood up to apologize.

Shi Ningyue shook her head and said: "I'm sad not because you speak more directly, but... you don't understand me at all. You are not me, how do you know that I don't have any worries in my heart? How do you know that I don't have lovesickness in my heart? Maybe I do.

I have become an old writer, but what I write is the true feelings in my heart, and I am definitely not trying to express my sorrow. My true feelings are ignored by the young master, and this is what makes Ning Yue feel sad."

Fang Zian said hurriedly: "Sorry, sorry, I was vulgar. I drank too much and was rude. Yes, I am not you, how dare I speak nonsense about your state of mind. That's all, I can't talk nonsense anymore. Ning Yue

Girl, I’ll take my leave now and never show my shame again.”

Fang Zian stood up and said goodbye, thinking about leaving quickly. But Shi Ningyue shouted: "No, are you leaving now? You want to run away if you offend someone?"

Fang Zian smiled bitterly and said: "It's not about running away. I have limited knowledge, so how can I dare to be a teacher?"

"I don't care, it's not too late for you to leave after reading this poem." Shi Ningyue handed over another poem manuscript she was holding in her hand.

Fang Zian had no choice but to take it and read it. This one was not a poem, but a short poem: There is haze at the bottom of Aijun's pen, he pulled out his golden hairpin and paid it to the restaurant. A talented woman who has cultivated herself to the world, she is as thin as a plum blossom.

After Fang Zian finished reading this poem, he lowered his head and said nothing for a long time. Although this poem is simple, it is more touching than any verses piled up with gorgeous words. The poetic meaning is obvious, it is a woman's naked expression of love for a man,

A commitment that springs from the heart out of deep love.

Shi Ningyue said softly: "Master Fang...is this poem still worthy of your attention?"

Fang Zian pondered for a long time, then raised his head and smiled and said: "Miss has learned the essence of writing poetry, returning to nature, true feelings and moving. This poem is very well written, very good. This is definitely not a lie."

Shi Ningyue chuckled and said, "Young master, do you still think that my last poem was just to write a new poem about sorrow?"

Fang Zian smiled and said: "I was wrong, it turns out it's true. I apologize again. It's because I have limited knowledge..."

Shi Ningyue said: "It has nothing to do with talent and learning. Did Young Master Fang deliberately pretend to be ignorant? Didn't Young Master ask me who this poem was written for?"

Fang Zian smiled and said: "Why do you ask this? I don't like to inquire about other people's thoughts. It turns out that Miss Ningyue has a sweetheart. No wonder you have to let Master Shi give you some advice on your marriage."

Shi Ningyue smiled sweetly and said: "Yes, I have someone I like. I like a person who is knowledgeable and has good character. Although he comes from a poor family, he will definitely be a dragon or a phoenix among people in the future, and will definitely not be a thing in the pool.

.However, I like him, but I don’t know if he likes me or not. I confessed my love to him, but he pretended to be confused. Mr. Fang, what do you think I should do?"

Fang Zian scratched his head and said: "This kind of thing... I don't know what to do. If you ask me, I can't answer. I think this kind of thing depends on fate. When fate comes, everything will fall into place."

Shi Ningyue smiled and said: "Fate? I don't like such illusory things. Didn't Young Master Fang say before that you have to follow your inner thoughts? Tell me, what will he do if I directly tell him that I like him?

What? He shouldn't look down on me, right?"

Fang Zian smacked his lips and said, "That shouldn't happen.

Right, but if he doesn't like you, wouldn't it be embarrassing? I advise Miss Ningyue to act with caution. After all, it's about reputation, so it's better to find out."

Shi Ningyue shook her head and said: "I don't! I want to follow my inner thoughts and I want to tell him. How can I know if he likes me or not if I don't tell him clearly? I am not afraid of reputation or anything like that. I am a talented person in the world.

My wife, she is as thin as a plum blossom. This is what I think."

Fang Zian rubbed his hands and felt uneasy, smacking his lips and said: "This... this... it's better to be more cautious. At your age, you are sometimes impulsive and you may not think clearly. What's so good about that person? How much do you know him?

What is his temperament? Do you really understand whether he has a family and what his character is like?"

Shi Ningyue smiled and said: "Master Fang, what's wrong? Aren't you my friend? Why are you always pouring cold water on me? Don't you want me to marry a good man? It's really strange."

Fang Zian smiled bitterly and said, "If you think so, I have nothing to say."

Shi Ningyue said softly: "Master Fang, let's not play riddles anymore. Why are you pretending to be confused? Isn't Ningyue good enough for you? You clearly know that I like you, why do you pretend not to know? You...

…Don’t you have any love for me?”

Fang Zian looked at Shi Ningyue in shock, only to see Shi Ningyue's eyes pulsating and her face looking at him with a delicate red face.

"I...I..." Fang Zian stammered and was speechless.

Of course he had been pretending to be confused. In fact, Shi Ningyue's behavior was already very obvious. How could he not feel it? Shi Ningyue's parting hint that day was actually very obvious. She asked herself what she thought of Zhuo Wen.

Jun's, that means that Zhuo Wenjun pursued Sima Xiangru. One of Zhuo Wenjun's poems is a line that Shi Ningyue hinted at herself, "If you want to win the same person, you will never be separated." If this hint still exists

If it is too subtle, then giving yourself a piece of jade would be even more obvious. According to ancient custom, a woman giving a jade to a man is a sign of love. "Give me a papaya, give me a jade in return, a bandit repays you, and you will always think it's good."

.', Qiong Yao is beautiful jade, this hint could not be more obvious.

The reason why Fang Zian pretended to be ignorant was not because he didn't know how good Shi Ningyue was. Shi Ningyue was born, had a good appearance, and had excellent conduct. She was the wife that men dream of. But Fang Zian couldn't react.

There are two reasons. First, he had already promised Zhang Ruomei to marry her, and the two were already married. Even if Zhang Ruomei left the Song Dynasty and went to the North, and there has been no news so far, Fang Zian could not start the chaos.

Finally gave up. The position of the principal wife was naturally reserved for Zhang Ruomei. Shi Ningyue's family background was such that she was not willing to be a concubine, so Fang Zian naturally could not accept her love at will.

Another reason was Shi Hao's hint. Shi Hao seemed to have seen something. When Fang Zian was living in the Shi family, Shi Hao hinted at Fang Zian intentionally or unintentionally. The general meaning was that Ning Yue was his.

The apple of his eye, he wanted Ning Yue to live a happy life and would never marry Ning Yue to someone who was wandering and unstable. He didn’t want Ning Yue to suffer and be implicated. He even jokingly said to Fang Zian that if Fang Zian had a family background that he knew

As a young man with profound knowledge and a gentle temper, you might as well tell him that he might be able to find a good match for Ning Yue if he goes to look for her. Those words are actually hints and warnings to Fang Zian, telling him not to have such thoughts. After all,

Appreciation is appreciation, respect is respect, but the future happiness of his baby daughter still comes first. Fang Zian is in trouble even when he is just a commoner, and it is obvious that he is not the kind of person who is content with ease. Naturally, he is definitely not Ningyue.

A good match.

Therefore, Fang Zian has been pretending to be confused about this matter. But Shi Ningyue is obviously not an ordinary woman. Fang Zian was deeply moved after reading today's poem. Ningyue's deep feelings are touching, but Fang Zian really doesn't know what to do.
