Chapter 57: Door-to-door robbery
"Miss Gu, do you have something important to look for the general when you come here at this time?" The general's housekeeper heard the attendant of the gate guard, and hurriedly greeted her, and hurriedly bowed her waist to invite her in, followed behind Fu Liluo, who was dressed as a handsome son, and walked up the steps again: "Miss Gu, it's not a coincidence that you came here today, our general went to the palace to resume his life." ”
The old grandmother's wrinkled face was like a withered vine, and her brows were tightly locked and she couldn't see it, she rubbed her hands and followed Fu Liluo's sideways, and lowered her eyebrows respectfully: "Why don't you go to the front hall to eat tea first, and then bake the fire, according to the old slave, the general will come back after dark." The old lady smiled on her face, standing on the edge of the purple and red flower garden and looked at Fu Liluo.
"Your general has been so happy lately! I didn't come to him today, but to ask for what belonged to me. ”
Fu Liluo frowned lightly at the smiling old woman, and went straight up the pebble-inlaid blue jade path towards the small lake by the arch.
The last time she was here, she was no stranger to this place, and she made up her mind to follow the trail across the lake, and pass through the rockery to find the white horse faster.
The old lady watched her step directly onto the path, and followed behind tremblingly and wiped the corners of her forehead: "Miss Gu, let's go to the flower hall for tea first!" The old lady's dark yellow eyes turned, glanced at the shallow girl, and stopped in front of her and bowed her head: "The general estimates that he will come back soon, and please don't worry about Miss Gu." The old lady raised her eyes and looked at the bright girl in front of her, but her voice became lower and lower.
Fu Li Luo's moist lips pulled over and sneered, the plain hand hanging in the gauze sleeve suddenly tightened, and his little face raised slightly: "I said, I don't wait for Dou Xiaoyang, I just go to retrieve my things." Fu Liluo raised his hand to brush the green silk at the corner of his mouth, and glanced at the old grandmother who bowed down with low eyebrows: "Mama is the mother in charge of the house, and she should know that she doesn't need anyone's approval to get her things back, and she asks Mama to understand." ”
The cold words in this cold winter moon actually made the old lady on the side sweat on her forehead.
The cold wind blows, the delicate flowers in the courtyard sway in the wind, such as being in a sea of flowers, the stamens of all colors are faintly fragrant, fluttering from the front, and violently into the nose, Fu Li Luo's plain white skirt ripples and flutters under her feet, she lowered her eyebrows and smiled slightly, the bottom of her eyes is clear, such as the calm and waveless spring, deep and quiet, the shallow pear vortex blooms on the pale lips: "Mama go back! Don't be blown by the wind here." ”
After that, she pulled the hem of her skirt and passed over from Mama's side, and the old Mama vaguely smelled a cold fragrance, only to feel a dull pain in her scalp, and she couldn't tell whether it was the fragrance of flowers in the court or the fragrance emanating from the girl's body, the old Mama pinched Su Paton in place, looked at Fu Liluo's brisk back and said, "Miss Gu... Miss..."I stood trembling for a long time before I turned back stupidly, with an old face that was already angry.
—
Walking quickly through the rockery next to the green lake, Fu Liluo lightly went up to the corner tower, stood at the highest point of the corner tower, glanced at the hill bag that was near and far, and felt a burst of sullen pain in his heart, Fu Li Luo hurriedly leaned on the vermilion pillar upstairs, tilted his body and exhaled, the white mist, connected with the cold wind whistling in her ears, covered her bright and dark eyes, and suddenly the bottom of her eyes was slightly moist, and when she raised her eyebrows again, two lines of hot tears slipped quietly along the white jaw.
Fu Liluo flicked her painful eyebrows, walked up the stone steps of the corner tower, through the red nanmu window lattice, a pair of beautiful eyes flashed, looking at the white horse in the stable leisurely chewing grass, she leaned on the door frame and probed in: "Ling'er, Ling'er." ”
The white horse, who was still enjoying the delicious taste, hissed softly, raised his hooves in front of him, rubbed the saddle and looked at Fu Liluo, as if he was very happy to see the old man.
Fu Liluo strode forward, hugged Bai Ju's head with his hands, and the tip of his red nose, which was blown by the wind, gently touched Ling'er's wet mane: "Ling'er, can I take you back?" Fu Liluo looked around at Ling'er's separate stable, which had changed a lot compared to the last time he came, and the surrounding pillars were embedded with a square lattice, and the verdant fresh grass was stuffed with the lattice.
Fu Liluo could see that this Dou Xiaoyang was very interested in Ling'er, and he could get so much crisp grass in the middle of winter, and for Ling'er's convenience, he actually put a lattice on the pillar to store grass, which could be regarded as preferential treatment for Ling'er.
But when he thought that the fox-like man was going to be married, and the object was still the godsister he had just recognized, Fu Liluo felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.
"Let's go, Ling'er, let's go back, we're not here. Fu Liluo stroked the smooth hair of the white horse, carefully untied the reins, her pretty face was gloomy, and she bit her lip and was angry: "Let that fox marry him! He has a wife and will not have time to take care of you, you better go with me!"
"Sister Xi, what did you say! Brother is very precious to this white horse. The crisp voice came, Fu Liluo turned around and looked back, only to see Dou Yuan wearing a light yellow brocade dress and walking over with a smile, and there was no maid and grandmother beside him.
"Why did Sister Yuan come here?" Fu Liluo raised his eyes and looked at Dou Yuan, his hands kept moving.
Perhaps greedy for this delicious food and unique environment, Ling'er slowly lay down and refused to get up, only looking up at Fu Liluo, who was struggling to pull the reins, as if to blame her for her arrogance.
Dou Yuan leaned on the pillar, grabbed a handful of grass and rubbed it in the palm of her hand with her white thin hand, and her round little face was filled with a slight smile: "Ling'er is used to eating this and living here, so she will definitely not go with Sister Xi." Dou Yuan threw away the grass wool in her palm that was crushed by her, raised her black pupils and looked at Fu Liluo with a pale face, a pair of eyes looked back and forth at her dressed as a young man, and her eyebrows frowned tightly: "Sister Xi, this dress really looks like a relative of mine." ”
Dou Yuan suddenly floated out of her head, her black and white eyes dimmed again, and her hands clenched her sleeves tightly: "It's just that she died early." ”
Fu Liluo was stunned for a few seconds, and saw the sadness that Dou Yuan was about to overflow from the bottom of her eyes, and suddenly felt a tightness in her throat, she suddenly wanted to hug her, although she didn't know who Dou Yuan's relative was, Fu Liluo stepped up and wanted to pull Dou Yuan's hand, but she didn't want Dou Yuan's body to flash, so she hid to the side.
"Sister Yuan, don't be sad, the old man has gone, you should look forward. Fu Liluo retracted his hand blankly, stood on the edge of the pillar and sighed.
She didn't know why Dou Yuan, who had always been kind to her, suddenly became so cold! Was it because she saw Dou Xiaoyang carrying her back last time? She heard Manluo mention it once, saying that Dou Yuan's expression was very ugly at that time.
Fu Liluo didn't dare to think about it, and paced to Bai Ju again, rubbed its nose with his cold cheeks, and touched the mane on the side of its mouth with his bare hands: "Ling'er let's go!
The corners of Dou Yuan's lips on the side hooked, her dark eyes were full of doubt and indifference, she gathered the fine yarn on her sleeves, and raised her eyebrows to look at Bai Ju: "This Bai Ju is a treasure that my brother found, I'm afraid it's not good for Sister Xi to be so popular!" Dou Yuan pulled the corners of her mouth, and the good-looking water chestnut bowed a little sneer.
She also heard Mama Yang in the house say, Otsuka Zai's eldest lady came to the house suddenly, she ran over as soon as she asked, last time she felt strange, this white horse actually listened to Gu Xi's words, and shouted it softly, it ran towards her happily. Could it be that this Ling'er is really her old master, but why didn't she take it away last time, and why did she come to the door to ask for it coldly this time?
Dou Yuan's mind was full of questions, although she gradually recovered some memories, but except for remembering her true identity and remembering her relatives in the old mansion, she couldn't remember anything else, but in order not to affect her brother who was a general, she was afraid that she would have to pretend to be frustrated for the rest of her life and live as Dou Yuan.
Fu Li Luo raised her eyes with a shallow smile, looked at Dou Yuan with a deep face, she took a step forward with her hands in her hands: "Sister Yuan'er is really hurtful to say this, I originally had a deep fate with this white horse, you also saw it last time, as soon as I shouted it, it ran to me, so this "winning people's favor" in Sister Yuan's mouth is not accurate enough! I am an old acquaintance with this white horse. Fu Liluo lifted Supa to wipe the moisture on her cheeks, which Ling'er had sprayed on her face just now.
Dou Yuan bit her lip tightly, squinted her eyes slightly and glanced at Fu Liluo, secretly admiring her clever speech in her heart, but she didn't want to let her go easily: "Even if Sister Xi and this Baiju are old acquaintances, then you have to wait for my brother to go back when he returns home!" Dou Yuan was a little discouraged, but her straight back couldn't help but bow down a lot, and her originally translucent apricot eyes sank gloomily.
"Don't wait, the general will be overjoyed immediately, presumably today's affairs are busy, so I won't wait for him. Fu Li Luo's fair little face was slightly raised, and he glanced at Dou Yuan who was leaning on the side with a light smile, the pear vortex at the corner of his lips suddenly faded, and he leaned over to say something that Dou Yuan couldn't understand with Bai Ju.
"My brother was given a marriage, and my sister seemed very unhappy. Dou Yuan tightened the Supa in her palm, and suddenly stepped forward and stared at Fu Liluo, whose face was slightly pale, as if she wanted to find out all the emotions in her heart through the appearance.
Fu Liluo's hand suddenly froze, lowered his head and quickly disappeared the gloom under his eyes, raised his eyebrows and raised his white chin and smiled lightly: "What Sister Yuan said, I am not very familiar with the general, but it is just a few faces, he was given marriage, why should I be unhappy?"
Dou Yuan shook the black silk on her shoulder, squinted at the beautiful girl in front of her, her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she said suspiciously: "Sister Xi is really not sad?" Dou Yuan suddenly felt a big sigh of relief in her heart, but her words were still tentative.
She looked at her brother who had always been cold that day, and came out with a fainting girl, the nervous look on her face was something she had never seen, she thought that they were deeply rooted, she now listened to this Gu Xi, and her heart gradually became clear, it seemed that she was dazzled at that time, and her brother did not like Gu Xi, and Gu Xi did not like her brother.
Fu Liluo looked at Dou Yuan, whose face was gradually stretching, gently patted the grass wool on his clothes, pulled the white horse out of the stable, suddenly looked back, looked at Dou Yuan with a very light face, and said: "Please also ask Sister Yuan'er to inform the general, knowing that he has been busy recently, so I will take Ling'er back by myself, please don't miss Ling'er." ”
Dou Yuan leaned half of her body on the vermilion pillar, and opened her lips in a curt: "Sister Xi, you... You..."Looking at the girl in white like snow, and seeing her tender face, Dou Yuan opened her mouth wide but didn't know what to say.
Seeing Fu Liluo riding on horseback, staring indifferently ahead in the cold wind, the girl's crowned bun was loosened a lot, and the green silk raised her tightly pursed lips, and with a hiss, the white horse raised his limbs and galloped out of the empty corner tower courtyard.
—
The sound of the wind became more and more rapid, like a ghost's claws pinching her throat, Fu Li Luo crouched on the horse's back and only felt that her breath was not smooth, and she suddenly took a deep breath, and all that ran into it was cold, and what swept into her face was a burst of coolness swept by the wind.
The white clothes of the pony are integrated, and it looks a little lonely in this empty official road.
The white reeds swayed back and forth, covering the white horse's vigorous limbs, but the handsome man in the cyan carriage parked next to the dead wood still saw the white-clothed girl lying on horseback, he opened his long and narrow phoenix eyes, raised his eyebrows and looked at the pale girl, his slender fingertips clenched the holy decree in his palm, his heart was blocked, and he scolded coldly: "Go home." ”
