Chapter 24: The Blood Jade Mandarin Duck Appears
When they met, Wang Heng knelt down first and kowtowed to the old lady and Mrs. Wang three times. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The old lady hurriedly asked someone to help him up, ordered him to sit down beside her, and happily took him by the hand, her eyes were full of kindness, and she looked him up and down, while asking about the cold and warmth and official business.
Wang Heng went back one by one.
Madame Wang glanced at everyone and ordered, "The eldest young master is back, tell them to prepare for the banquet." Go and prepare, too. ”
Everyone said yes in unison, stand down.
There were only three of them left in the room.
The old lady put on a solemn look and said to Wang Heng: "Antai, grandmother won't mention the past, so as not to make you sad." You have traveled abroad for two years, and later you took the top prize, and now you are an official in the imperial court, and you know more about the big truths of right and wrong than your grandmother. For the sake of your mother giving birth to you and your grandmother looking forward to you, you should also get married! Qingquan has stayed in Huayang Town all these years and served your mother and me wholeheartedly, so it's time to give her an explanation......
When Wang Heng heard this, he interrupted the old lady and said, "What did grandmother say? What else to marry?"
The old lady said bitterly: "Antai! Xin'er has gone!"
Mrs. Wang continued, "Yes. Qingquan has ...... in recent years"
Wang Heng interrupted his mother's words again and said, "Marriage, marry back as an ornament, mother, let's save some face for my son!"
Mrs. Wang was shocked, "What do you mean?"
The old lady looked equally shocked.
Wang Heng was about to speak, when he heard the maid outside exclaiming, "Don't go in!" and someone shouted, "Stop it!" In the confusion, Mo Yun came in, ran to him, flicked his tail at him, and rubbed his legs one by one.
He hurriedly said, "Don't worry about it!" Then he lowered his head and stroked the black dog's head, smiled affectionately and asked, "Miss me so much?"
The black dog tilted his head, pressed down on his palm, and spat out something in his palm. He fixed his eyes, his face changed greatly, and he asked in a lost voice, "Where did you get it from?"
Mo Yun wagged his tail proudly: "......"
The old lady and Mrs. Wang looked at his hand, only to see a red blood jade carving on his palm, a jade mandarin duck, and their hearts sank at the same time.
Wang Heng came to his senses: the dog can't speak, and he can't ask questions.
He stood up and shouted, "Where did you pick it up, take me there!" With that, he dodged out of the house without even saying hello to the old lady and Mrs. Wang.
Mo Yun followed behind him with a puff of smoke.
Madame Wang even called out, but she couldn't get him to turn back. She turned and said to the old lady with tears in her eyes, "Mother, what did he just say?"
The old lady said heavily: "No matter what it means, don't think about him getting married this time! That jade mandarin duck appeared, and it was lucky that he was not crazy." ”
Mrs. Wang was puzzled: "Could it be that Xin'er's girl is not dead?"
The old lady didn't answer, and ordered in a loud voice: Tell the housekeeper to take someone to follow the eldest young master.
Wang Heng rushed out of the house, turned over his big black horse, and ordered Moyun to lead the way, urging the horse to leave. Behind him, a group of young men and women poured out, looking at his distant back in a daze. Suddenly, they asked each other like a honeycomb.
"Why did you just come back and leave?"
"Yes, eldest brother hasn't seen Sister Meng yet. ”
"Sister Meng is so aggrieved!"
"Big brother is really crazy!"
"Why?"
"How do I know!"
……
No one could answer them as to why Wang Heng came back and left.
Wang Heng followed Mo Yun all the way, and returned to the ferry in a blink of an eye, and when he saw Mo Yun spinning on the grass by the river, he asked in horror: "That's the jade you picked up here?"
Mo Yun looked at him, and "Wang" called twice.
Liang Xinming's face instantly appeared in front of Wang Heng's eyes.
He clenched the jade mandarin duck tightly and chuckled, "Sure enough, it's you!"
Starry eyes swept towards the ferry, and there were only a few small boats. At this time, it is the time of sunset, if you take such a small boat, I am afraid that you can only reach Hecheng in the middle of the night, and it is not safe to sail at night, I am afraid that the boatman will not agree. The Wang family has a larger ship, but unfortunately I went to buy it elsewhere, and I heard that I could only return to Huayang Town tomorrow.
Wang Heng thought about it, turned the horse's head and left.
He couldn't wait for a moment, and had to go to Hecheng by land.
The housekeeper of the palace just led people to chase him to the ferry, but he saw the eldest young master riding a horse and running on the official road, so he hurriedly asked the people around him: "Where is the eldest young master going?"
Wang Heng's entourage also followed, who can answer him?
Wang Heng galloped in the starry night, and it was already at 10 o'clock in the evening outside Hecheng. Standing on the side of the road under the hillside outside the Wangjia Garden, by the half moon in the sky, he looked at the mountain, and there were several courtyards with lights, and a wisp of piano music echoed in the night sky.
He jumped off his horse and threw the reins of his horse, and there was a knock on the door from his attendants.
Yi'an was explaining tomorrow's arrangements to the housekeeper of the annex in the gatehouse when he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he found Wang Heng walking in, and asked in surprise, "Why did the eldest young master come back so quickly?
Wang Heng didn't answer, but asked, "Have the guests been arranged?"
Yi'an replied: "It's all arranged." Lord Zhou and Lord Hong lived in the East Guest Courtyard, and Liang Juren's family lived in the West Guest Courtyard. ”
Wang Heng asked, "Who is playing the piano?"
Yi'an said: "It seems to be Liang Juren." ”
Liang Xinming plays the piano?
Wang Heng smiled meaningfully.
Coming from Huayang Town overnight, he not only did not feel tired, but was very excited. He has been thinking about it for many years, and once there is a result, he is eager to find out and uncover the truth. Hearing Yi'an say that Liang Xinming was playing the piano, he thought it was very interesting. - Lin Xin'er, his little wife, is not an ordinary girl, she is a cunning little fox!
He was sure that Liang Xinming knew that he would come back and had been waiting for him. Because Lin Xin'er hated playing the piano the most, she didn't want to learn the piano back then, so she chose to learn to play the flute. Liang Xinming played the piano late at night, in order to prove to him that he was not Lin Xin'er?
He had to believe it!
Wang Heng raised his feet and left, and hurriedly followed.
The guest house is in the second entrance.
Wang Heng entered the second gate, turned left into the verandah, and climbed three five-level stone steps in the middle. It seemed to follow the sound of the piano, and as he got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer. When I stood at the door of the West Guest Courtyard, the sound of the piano was no longer blocked, and it was suddenly clear.
I saw a young man sitting behind the piano case under the laurel tree in the courtyard, playing "Mountain Dwelling Yin" intently. The moonlight was like water, illuminating the small courtyard clearly, and under the shade of the laurel tree, his face was a little hazy. Facing the green mountains and the bright moon, it seems that he forgot that he was in the world, sitting in the clouds.
Wang Heng stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked at him quietly.
The night is also silent!
I don't know how long it took, but the sound stopped.
Wang Heng still stood still.
Hometown timidity!
He was suddenly a little frightened and did not dare to step forward.
At this moment, Li Huiniang came out of the house, put a piece of clothing on her arm, went to Liang Xinming, put it on him, and said softly: "Stop playing, go to sleep." ”
Liang Xinming turned his head, held one of her hands, gently took her into his arms, and chuckled at her without makeup: "Okay." ”
