Chapter Forty-Eight: Refusing to Travel and Visiting the Garden
If Hua Chen really didn't care about the Lan Cheng girl they were talking about, how could she say such a thing to the second prince on the observation deck?
As a younger brother, he shouldn't care about his brother and sister-in-law. Especially as Hua Chen, who has such a relationship with his sister-in-law, he should avoid suspicion.
But these two silly girls are dedicated to the main thing, and naturally help Hua Chen speak everywhere, so it is inevitable to see him reluctantly let go of Qiu Mingyuan, as if he has broken off with the past, but he has lost his sense of proportion for his old love today.
The heart knows this, but it can't say that. Luan Ge leaned on the bedpost, and when he slowly recovered his breath, he said to Yi Bi: "Well, I will definitely convey your son-in-law's kindness to my senior brother." Don't worry, even if there were ten or eight girls living there before, my senior brother wouldn't mind, in the boudoir's dream, I'm afraid that it's too late for him to be happy!"
Listening to Luange's jokes, Yi Zhu and Yi Bi looked at each other, and then couldn't help laughing.
Knowing about Qiu Mingyuan's affairs, thinking that it didn't have much to do with himself and Shu Yang, and wouldn't cause too much trouble, Luan Ge didn't care about it anymore. Seeing that it was getting late, and the strength of the wine slowly dissipated after taking a bath, she told Yizhu Yibi and the others to rest, and she also went to bed to rest.
By the time Shu Yang returned from the gazebo with the smell of wine, the house on the other side of the lake had already been lit up and the house was dark.
Walking into Qiu Ming Garden, Yun Qing and Yun Wan hurriedly greeted them, one holding a water-soaked handkerchief, and the other holding a cup of hot tea.
took the handkerchief and wiped his hands, and was about to take a bath, looking at the six taels sleeping on the soft couch on the side, Shu Yang paused:
"Why didn't Liuliang pestering Luange tonight?"
"Who knows. Since beating us back. I've been lying there, I'm afraid I'm greedy for our family, Ah Lan, and I'll be here to be courteous. Yun Qing looked at Liuliangdao. Then he asked Shu Yang: "If Mr. doesn't like it, I'll go and send this stinky fox with no conscience to Jiexiangju." ”
Looking at the six taels, Yunqing still remembered that it had forgotten about the old master on the mountain before, and felt that it had no conscience.
"I'm just asking, but I don't have to. Shu Yang shook his head, "It's already resting over there, so let it sleep there." ”
As he spoke, he walked and washed up and went to bed.
So far. Nothing was said all night.
On the morning of the second day, Luan Ge went to Qiuming Garden to find Shuyang after breakfast.
When Yibi came back in the morning, she said that it was because Hua Chen was in the court, so today Su Yi would take Shu Yang and Luan Ge to familiarize themselves with the environment in the mansion. By the way, let the people below recognize their faces, so as not to collide and cause any misunderstanding.
And the reason why Luan Ge was in such a hurry to find Shu Yang was to refuse.
Although Su Yi took the initiative to be transparent with herself last night, it can be regarded as abiding by the agreement. But today he leads the way. I had to fight him again.
And for this person, Luan Ge only felt too strange, and for some reason always felt that he didn't seem to be as simple as it seems, so when she finished explaining to Shu Yang, Shu Yang stopped writing in his hand, looked at her and said:
"I forgot to ask, yesterday Su Yi took you to Jiexiangju, it's nothing, right?"
"It's fine. I asked him why he kept looking at me and he didn't say anything. Anyway, I said to Yun Wan that there was no malice in what he said, and he wouldn't be so abrupt in the future, I saw that he didn't stare at me again last night, and he didn't put it in his heart, but I still don't want to see him again today, I always feel that this person is a little strange. ”
Glancing around, seeing that there was no one, Luan Ge poked the spine of the bookshelf with his fingers, and said to Shu Yang in a muffled voice.
"In this case, it's up to you, but it will inevitably happen in the future. But don't be too careful, so as not to respond to all changes, I will take a look again today, if there is really any problem, I am still here. After finishing the words in the pen, Shu Yang followed her meaning.
Then he put down the pen in his hand, walked around the chair to the bookshelf, and found some book inside, but his mouth did not stop:
"But if you're bored, you can go out and take a look. Hua Chen told me some things this year, but there are still many things that can only be done by looking at the past records, so I may be a little busy these days and can't take care of you very much. Be careful, and if there's anything you can't handle, come to me. Also,"
Pulling out a book, Shu Yang turned his head to look at Luan Ge: "Keep the agreement, don't enter the palace casually." The second prince also avoided it carefully. ”
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid, I'm not familiar with anything and it's so easy to move. What kind of second prince is that, looking at it, he is not a righteous gentleman, if I provoke him, I must have a bad head. ”
Luan Ge glanced at Shu Yang angrily, feeling that he was doubting his IQ with such a hint.
"Since you've been busy these days, I won't come here to bother you, and it will save Yunqing from being angry when she looks at me. But the one you mentioned is not bad, anyway, it's also a garden, just so I can ask Yizhu Yibi to take me there, they are the big girls next to Hua Chen, and it's not bad. ”
"Hua Chen gave you his own girl?" Shu Yang frowned.
"You don't know, do you?"
Luan Ge moved from the bookshelf, walked to the chair next to him and sat down, told him what happened last night, and finally teased him: "There is another thing that you don't know." ”
"What's the matter?" Shu Yang faintly had a bad premonition.
Whenever Luan Ge laughs like this, nothing good happens to Zhun Bao.
"Do you know that the place where you live now is the former residence of Hua Chen's good friend? It is the sister-in-law who has rumors with him, and she is also the current side lady of the second prince Hua Shuo. ”
Shu Yang's face suddenly turned a little green.
"Poof, okay, don't think about it, I'm just teasing you. Although this place was lived by that Lan Cheng girl, it was Hua Chen's summer residence in the first place, so you don't have to worry so much. Luan Ge kindly comforted.
Shu Yang didn't speak for a long time, and in the end, he only held back one sentence:
"You know a lot. ”
Luan Ge was about to speak, but suddenly heard a voice outside, and looked from the window, sure enough, it was Su Yi.
didn't care about saying too much, Luan Ge was busy hiding behind the bookshelf, and he was busy hiding behind the bookshelf.
But he was pulled out by Shu Yang. Shook his head helplessly and said, "Yizhu and Yibi are still outside, can't you see Su Yi?"
“……”
Luan Ge didn't know what to say, so he saw Shu Yang step forward and open the door. Motioned for her to follow.
Reluctantly followed Shu Yang, Luan Ge didn't say a word, listened to the two of them for a while, and then didn't wait for Su Yi to mention Luan Ge, he listened to Shu Yang:
"Just looking through the old classics, Yang found some strange places, Mr. stayed in the house for a long time. I just wanted to ask Mr. 1 or 2, and we talked as we walked. As for Luange's child's temperament, how about letting Yizhu Yibi play with her?"
Hear this. Su Yi's gaze moved to Luan Ge's body.
After a while, I heard him smile and said, "Su Yi has no opinion, I'm just afraid that I will snub the girl." ”
"Don't slack off, don't slack off, you get down to business. I'll just play with Yizhu Yibi by myself. I can't lose it anyway. Hearing this, Luan Ge hurriedly raised his head and said.
But with Su Yi's playful eyes, she knew that she had been fooled, but she was afraid that Su Yi had already seen that she didn't want to see him.
Thinking like this, Luan Ge simply didn't hide behind Shu Yang, and looked directly at Su Yi and said:
"Mr. Su's kindness Luan Ge understands, but since you have something to say with your senior brother, Luan Ge naturally needs to avoid suspicion. Yizhu Yibi and they have been in the house for many years, and it is the same to take me around. ”
As he spoke, he turned to Shu Yang and said, "Senior brother." Then you get busy first. ”
Then without waiting for the two of them to speak, they shouted "Yizhu Yibi", followed by Qiu Mingyuan, leaving Shu Yang's helpless laughter behind him.
Coming out of Qiu Mingyuan, looking at the lotus leaves all over the lake, Luan Ge suddenly didn't know where to go, so he turned around, looked at Yizhu Yibi, who also ran over with him, and asked:
"Where are we going?"
"Didn't the girl let us familiarize ourselves with the environment in the lower mansion?" Yi Zhu asked, and then doubted Luan Ge's memory.
"I ......"
I can't say that I just said it so casually, Luan Ge shrugged his shoulders, and then said, "I mean, what should we do next." ”
"We are now in the East Garden, and the place where the master lives is in the main courtyard, and it is from this road. ”
Yi Bi pointed to a road on the left-hand side, and then continued: "After the past, and then to the west, it is the place where the housekeepers and servants and maids in the house live, which is more messy, and the main courtyard is not here now, so it is inconvenient to go over. Why don't you go with us to the verandah and the lotus pond first, where the scenery is the most beautiful. ”
Anyway, as long as you don't meet Su Yi, so no matter what Yibi said, Luan Ge nodded and let her lead the way.
In the end, he has been in the mansion for many years, and he has stayed by Hua Chen's side, Yi Bi explained the layout of the Three Princes' Mansion clearly in a few words.
In the middle is the main courtyard, the east garden is the guest room, the west garden is the residence of the servants and maids, and the large area in the front is the garden in the house.
After listening to Yibi's introduction, Luan Ge knew that the verandah they walked on when they entered the mansion yesterday was part of the garden.
Just this part alone made her a little confused.
"Rest, I can't walk. ”
I knew that this prince's mansion was big, but I didn't expect it to be so big, and I knew that the verandah was chaotic, but I didn't expect it to be so messy.
There is also this eyes full of water, and the eyes are full of lotus, how to look at how to make people feel luxurious, and easy to appear aesthetic fatigue.
The people of the Southland are really strange.
Finding a stool in the pavilion on the side and sitting down, Luan Ge breathed a sigh of relief, and then instructed Yibi to bring some of the lotus seeds he picked back to Jiexiangju first.
Yesterday, I tasted the Baihua wine in Yunhe Tower, and Luan Ge suddenly thought that he had buried several jars of Baiguo wine on Yunyang Mountain, but unfortunately he forgot it at that time, and now it is inconvenient to take it.
Today's visit to the garden, seeing this large piece of lotus seeds, and moved the mind of brewing lotus heart bitter wine, along the way I chose a lot of satisfactory lotus seeds, which can be regarded as a harvest after exhaustion.
Beating his legs and looking around, Luan Ge opened his mouth and asked Yi Zhudao:
"Is your house built on water? And this lotus flower, which looks good in summer, but in the other three seasons, isn't it just bare? ”
"Girl, this is a joke, how can it be possible to build a building on the water? This foundation alone is unstable, how can people live?"
Yi Zhu listened to her words, couldn't help but smile, and then after a while, he lowered his head again with a little melancholy, and began to tell another paragraph:
"In fact, this is not the case in our house, and it was no different from an ordinary house before, with flowers blooming in all seasons, nothing more than planting some ordinary flowers and plants. But later, after Miss Lan came here, because she liked lotus flowers, my son-in-law planted a pond of lotus in the lake on the edge of Qiu Mingju; Later, because this verandah was to be rebuilt, Miss Lan said casually, 'The blue water verandah listens to the wind, it is better than the good season in the world', and when the son heard it, he ordered people to divert water from the gap between the verandah, and the red lotus was in it, so it became what it is now. ”
"In this way, your son-in-law is an infatuated person?"
Luan Ge smiled, only feeling that this Hua Chen was a little stupid, not at all like the kind of person with lofty ambitions and ambitions that Shu Yang said, on the contrary, like a swinger brother who only has beauty in his eyes.
Is there really no problem with Shu Yang's ability?
Thinking like this, Luan Ge thought in his heart whether to calculate Hua Chen again after he went back.
"My girl and Miss Lan Cheng just like each other, it is the second prince who snatches love, relying on his mother is the most favored Concubine Su today, so he asked His Majesty Xià for marriage, he originally intended to break up Miss Lan and my son-in-law!"
Luan Ge shook her head helplessly, was this girl poured some ** soup by Gu Nian named Li Lanhui? Why is it that the second prince who has been denouncing it all the time, but she has never found a problem with this Li Lanhui?
This kind of thing has always been a slap in the face, if it is really Lang You's concubine who has no intention, where will such a thing be scattered because of a holy decree?
When you meet someone who really has a temperament, don't say a holy decree, that is, to force each other to die, and you must fight against the sky.
In the final analysis, Hua Chen is just happy and unintentional.
Luan Ge naturally wouldn't say this, Yizhu is not Yibi, and some things can't be seen clearly, but it makes sense, besides, Hua Chen and Li Lanhui have nothing to do with her, and she doesn't bother to argue.
So he sat down in the pavilion, said that he wanted to rest, and went back to the Xiangju with Yizhu.
Lacking interest, in the end I nested in the house, and turned over the ice basin for a long time without mentioning the books I brought from the mountain.
Shu Yang had already said that she might be busy, so she didn't go to Qiu Ming Garden, and Liuliang pulled Ah Lan to be courteous all day long, and she didn't bother to pay attention to it, and after taking lunch, she rested for an hour, and she was a little bored and couldn't sleep.
Lying on it with his eyes open, listening to the squeaky cicadas outside the window, Luan Ge was rarely stunned, not knowing what to think.
Suddenly, she sat up suddenly, startling Yibi, who had just come in with ice water, shaking her hand and dropping the ice cubes in the basin to the ground.
"What's wrong with the girl?" Yibi asked hurriedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, I just remember one thing. Luan Ge hurriedly waved his hand, saw the things scattered on the ground, and said, "I'm sorry to scare you." You clean up first, leave me alone. ”
"But by a nightmare?"
Squatting down to put the ice cubes scattered on the carpet back into the basin, and placing the basin at the humble feet, Yibi asked.
"Come out with me later, right?" Luan Ge didn't answer her, but said something else. (To be continued.) )
