Chapter Seventy-Eight: Relief from Worries
These words were so sour that they made people cover their mouths and noses, and the speaker's shrill voice when he was emotional, and the three people who heard it all frowned secretly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The girl's mother also felt that such behavior was against everyone's demeanor, and said softly: "This child is afraid that he has not seen his niece for a long time, and he will inevitably be surprised by his niece's extraordinary appearance at first sight, and my sister is not strange." ”
Mrs. Li was unimpressed, and continued: "The children are still young, and there are some who have no form of speech. Ignoring the woman's pretentious gestures, she asked her daughter to apologize.
After saying a word, Mrs. Li said goodbye and left, leading Li Jin into the hall behind the mother and daughter. Just because the guests in the hall were greeting inside, there seemed to be hundreds of birds chirping, and the whole inner room was boiling, so a storm in front of the door did not attract anyone's attention, and it was dull again.
Through the crowd of heads and the gaze of surprise, amazement, or jealousy, Mrs. Li took Li Jin to a quieter corner to sit and rest.
Maybe it's because of the restlessness, Mother Li's brows have never shown signs of stretching, and after sitting down at this moment, she occasionally has a slight cluster of eyebrows. Fortunately, everyone around was busy with their own communication, shuttling through the hall, and it seemed that they were just respectful of Li Jin's mother and daughter, and only occasionally passed by one person to pay attention.
The silence of her mother along the way and the entanglement at the moment made Li Jin feel quite uncomfortable, and she just wanted to say something for a while to divert her mother's attention. It's just that he didn't dare to speak casually, just because he was afraid that the flattering words he said would touch his mother's heartstrings and make the situation worse. When he was hesitating to say something, he saw a bunch of plums outside the courtyard in a blink of an eye. The yellow flowers bloomed half a month earlier than the other plum blossoms in the yard before, so he said happily.
"Mother, outside the courtyard is a rare Lingnan golden plum. No wonder as soon as I sat down, I felt a faint fragrance that refreshed people's hearts, and it turned out to be it. Golden like wax, frost and snow, it really deserves the title of tiger hoof plum. ”
Li Jin noticed her mother's gaze, and at this time she was finally attracted to the small bud outside. Because of this, Li Jin's mood was finally a little easier. After the changes of the past few days, Li Jin deeply understands that immersing himself in sorrow can only make people more lost and painful.
"'The branches and jasper are naturally thin, and the love of gold is extraordinarily fragrant' The ancients described it as exactly the same. Mother Li muttered as she looked at the branches covered with golden flowers that had probed over the wall.
"It's just that this thing looks like a plum instead of a plum, what's the use of an empty plum name?" When she said this, Li's mother's eyes were full of brilliance, and she seemed to fall into deeper grief.
Li Jin was secretly frightened, and immediately reflected on his childish thoughts just now.
I'm afraid that my mother's experience just now made the county lord's arbitrary behavior angry and shocked. I'm afraid that I will marry into such a place and feel sad in my heart. At this moment, no matter what you listen to or see, everything must not be at will, and sadness cannot be cured by simple empathy. At this time, the conversation brought out this mood, and I am afraid that everything in my eyes will also have such a color.
Li Jin thought in her heart that if she was so laissez-faire, she was afraid that before she got out of the banquet and returned home, her mother would be sick from this depressed breath.
At that moment, Li Jin rolled his eyes, and immediately continued: "Although this flower has no plum quality, it is also light yellow and snowy, frozen berries are frosty, the aroma is strong and clear, bright and vulgar, this is its own characteristics, why do outsiders need to put their beaks." The names are just called out by others, but there is no loss of the essence of this thing, so why should we take it to heart? ”
Hearing this, Mother Li was stunned for a moment, and her brows tightened. It was only after a moment that my mind seemed to open up. Raised his eyes and looked at Li Jin and said, "You little girl, I'm afraid that you already know it in your heart, so tell me about it when you return home." ”
seemed to sigh, and seemed to have finally let go, and the tone of Li's mother's words finally revealed a hint of relief.
Seeing that at this moment, her mother finally stopped thinking about what had just happened, and Li Jin was completely relieved in her heart. Now I can finally focus on dealing with what may happen later.
It's strange to say, everyone in the hall seems to be deliberately avoiding, and it seems that they are concentrating and chatting happily, and they have no intention of doing it, and the square inch around Li Mu and Li Jin is actually empty. Such a hollow area made the already crowded people in the hall seem more crowded, which was in stark contrast to the relative openness of the Li family's mother and daughter.
The conversation between Li Jin and Li's mother just now was so casual because he observed that the people around him were not far away or close in a hurry, so he could act like this in a low voice so that he would not be heard.
At this time, I regrouped my mind and observed the outside world to realize this strange scene.
Mother Li also found this strange scene after returning to her senses, and was glad that she chose a corner to rest, otherwise she could sit aside and avoid it around, if she was in the hall, she was afraid that it would become a wonder, but fortunately, behind her was a hanging window leading to the courtyard wall, otherwise it would be very embarrassing to be used to being indifferent.
The behavior of everyone who seemed to be jealous and seemed to be repulsive did not cause Li Jin to think too much, but it only made her subconsciously tense her spirit. Because of this, she actually heard the sound of clothes rubbing against the clothes outside the window behind her that seemed to be made when someone was moving, and it was said that such a subtle sound would never enter Li Jin's ears, who were filled with buzzing voices at this time.
Li Jin looked out quietly, there was a corridor outside the window, which should be set up for the convenience of people walking back and forth, and the servants who entered the hall at this time walked through the main door in order to respond to the needs of the guests in the hall in time, so there should be no people passing by here. But Li Jin was sure that the rustling sound just now could only be made by clothes.
Li Jin turned her head sideways and secretly looked at her mother's face, looking at the expression, Mother Li didn't seem to notice what was behind her. Was it an auditory hallucination?
Li Jin was going to get up and go to the window to find out, but before Li Jin could act, the attendants outside had already begun to report loudly that today's protagonist had arrived. Therefore, the originally noisy environment in the hall immediately became solemn, and everyone stood still, just waiting for the master to come and salute calmly, so now it is undoubtedly a fool's dream to lean against the window without attracting attention, unless Li Jin can hide himself with some Qimen Dunjia, probably can do it.
Unintentionally causing twists and turns, Li Jin secretly suppressed this thought, got up with everyone, and waited quietly.
