Fragrance Returned

Chapter 324 Name Change

Ding Xiang took out a picture she had drawn at home, which was of the shark from "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

The paper is only 32K and has no coloring, but the alternative and novel shape completely subverts all Xun Qiandai's previous understanding of mountains and seas.

It turns out that you can draw like this, it turns out that sharks can be so beautiful...

After admiring it, I immediately asked for a calligraphy treasure.

Ding Xiang gave it to him generously, and he said that he would give Ding Xiang a piece of his calligraphy.

After giving each other calligraphy treasures, the two felt more like-minded.

Ding Xiang didn't want to keep talking about painting, so she turned the topic to Spanish, the other side of the ocean, and then talked about landscape travel, astronomy and geography...

Ding Xiang also found out as she wished that there was a large reclining Buddha on Tujing Mountain in Qianzhou, with the Yinjiang River flowing through the mountain. There are many barbarians scattered in the mountains of Qianzhou, such as the Miao and Buyi people...

Listening to his description, Ding Xiang concluded that Tujing Mountain and Yinjiang River were the scenes in her dream, and the reclining Buddha on the mountain was the Buddha in her dream.

Prince Consort Xun invited Ding Xiang to go to the princess's house for a discussion and to have more friends with his daughter.

Ding Xiang refused very rudely, "I am from a farmer's family and grew up in the countryside. Your daughter is from a clan and has a well-known talent. I have nothing to say to her."

Xun Qiandai didn't think Ding Xiang was impolite. Thinking about my daughter's character, they are indeed not the same people.

He added, "Junior sister goes to Master's house every Saturday to study. If I have nothing to do, I will make time to go there."

Through more than an hour of conversation, Ding Xiang got to know Xun Qiandai better.

His true character is not as cold as he appears. Although he is relatively naive about many things and people, is arrogant about his talents, and is not good at dealing with the world, he is a good person and is not overbearing and overbearing like most children of aristocratic families and clans.

Family values ​​and patriotism are not very strong, nor are they absent.

He has a wide range of interests, advocates freedom, and is quite romantic. He can be a poet, writer, scholar, scientist... but he definitely cannot be the leader of a large feudal family.

There were many people with this personality among the high-IQ elites in the previous life, including her in the previous life.

In the previous life, this kind of personality was characterized by individuality, aloofness, and being beyond the control of others. But in ancient times, when families were fond of staying together, and they were born into high-ranking official families and clans where political struggles were more complicated, they were at a greater disadvantage.

Look, his daughter was replaced without even realizing it, and his wife almost took over the family by randomly standing in line.

No matter what, as long as he is not a villain who benefits himself at the expense of others, Ding Xiang is still willing to continue to be on good terms with him.

You can deny this father, but you still have to recognize this senior brother.

After that, Ding Xiang told how her little brother Ding Li was talented in arithmetic, how she couldn't find a suitable husband, and how she admired him.

Xun Qiandai had never thought of recruiting students, thinking it would be a burden. But the junior sister proposed it, and it was not his character to avoid difficulties...

He was a little confused.

Ding Xiang smiled and said, "Didn't Senior Brother just say that promoting national strength cannot only rely on the Four Books and Five Classics, but also on the laws of nature and natural objects. There are not many people who like to study the laws of nature and natural objects, and my third brother is one of them. He is also extremely talented. , after training, maybe he can become the second Zu Chongzhi."

Tianli Tianwu refers to the natural method, and its extension is natural science.

Xun Qiandai decided to take the Ding Li Lai test. If he was as good as his junior sister said, he would take the time to teach him while he was in Beijing.

"Junior sister is so loud, I just want to take a look."

Ding Xiang called Ding Li over. Brothers Xun Yibo and Ding Liren saw it and followed them.

Ding Li came and took out a pile of papers he had prepared and asked Xun Qiandai for advice.

Ding Xiang secretly glanced at Xun Yibo.

She likes her little brother.

She discovered that Xun Yibo would also glance at her secretly.

When their eyes met, they both smiled at each other.

The little brother is still a little embarrassed.

As for Xun Qiandai, his attitude was first perfunctory, then serious, and then solemn, explaining to Ding Lilai very seriously.

More than half an hour later, Xun Qiandai said with a smile, "Another arithmetic prodigy is about to be born. Of course, the teacher must guide him well first." He cupped his hands at Ding Xiang and said with a smile, "Junior sister has a keen eye for pearls and found a good seedling for me."

Several people went to the hall and asked everyone to testify. Ding Li came to kowtow and worship.

Xun Qiandai is relatively busy. When he was in Beijing, Ding Lilai went to Dongyang Princess Mansion to study for two hours every morning on holidays.

Xun Qiandai then found a good teacher for Ding Li, and he usually studied with him.

Ding Zhuang, Ding Chi and Tang were very happy.

It was already the end of Shenshi, and the Xun family and the Shen family stood up to say goodbye.

The Ding family stayed for dinner.

As soon as he got on the carriage, Xun Yibo couldn't wait to tell Xun Qiandai, "Dad, I think the fragrance on Cousin Ding's body smells very good, just like the smell of my sister when she was a child."

He vaguely remembered that his sister could emit fragrance when she was a child, which was more fragrant than the flowers in the yard. Later, it disappeared. My mother said it was because my sister was ill, and the illness took away her fragrance.

He cried for days.

As I grew up, I gradually forgot about that incident. But today when I smell the fragrance of lilac, that long-standing memory comes back to me.

Although the fragrance was faint, he could still smell it clearly. It was different from the fragrance of flowers and plants, the fragrance of honey, ambergris, and agarwood.

Xun Qiandai pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

My son is young and mature, and it is rare for him to be so childish.

He said, "I also smelled it. The fragrance on my junior sister's body is the fragrance of honey and butter. How can it be like your sister when she was a child?"

When he returned to Beijing, his daughter's natural body fragrance disappeared due to a serious illness, which made him regret for a long time.

Xun Yibo said stubbornly, "There are honey-fat fragrance powder and pendants in the house, and the smell is different from the fragrance that cousin Ding and my sister used to have when they were young."

He took out the colorful bracelet given to him by Ding Zhao and his wife and smelled it.

Xun Qiandai has done a lot of research on fragrance and said, "The fragrance of honey is divided into three colors: purple, red, and brown, which are further divided into medium-grade, top-grade, and top-grade. The taste of these varieties is generally the same but has subtle differences, such as fresh, fruity, floral, Sweet aroma, woody aroma...you have to distinguish carefully to smell the difference."

Xun Yibo felt that what his father said made sense, but in his heart he still felt that the scent of cloves was like that of his younger sister when she was a child.

Prince Consort Xun said again, "Xiao Dingxiang has a great talent and is a relative. Let's get along well with him in the future."

"Yes, I will. Cousin Ding is also doing very well in his studies. He will take the imperial examination in May...My mother and sister always say that a young lady looks better if she is thinner, but I think Cousin Ding is chubby and still very good-looking."

Prince Consort Xun thought about what the little girl looked like. The eldest brother said that the child has a lucky look, and he looks very pleasant indeed...

Returning to the princess mansion, the two went directly to the main hall.

Princess Dongyang was banned and could not even leave the main hall.

Xunxiang is also here, leaning on Princess Dongyang's arms and acting coquettishly.

Seeing his father and brother coming back, he stepped forward and asked, "Dad, have you asked Ding Xiang to change her name?"

The day before yesterday, Xunxiang told her father that she wanted Dingxiang to "change her name."

Not only did her father not agree, he also scolded her.

She entered the palace when she was angry.

Xunxiang thought that if her father could see that she was angry, she could get the girl named Ding to change her name.
