Chapter XXVIII

At the beginning of the lanterns, the moon is as bright as a mirror, and the circle is like a disk.

The stars that pierced through the staggered fields finally woke up the dull bell of glory.

He raised his eyes and saw Lin Jing's worried gaze, "How are you?" ”

"How am I?" The evening breeze woke him up, but he only felt in a trance.

What happened to him? He's just drunk.

"You're drunk?" Lin Jing suddenly became a little dignified, "Call the bell, I have known you for so many years, but I have never seen you get drunk once." ”

"Yes, not once." He suddenly felt ridiculous, and when he looked at the half bowl of wine poured in the bowl, he only felt a turbidity.

It's like a peach under a tree, and even the fragrance of the flowers is a little pungent.

He's still drunk, but somehow.

"How did I get here?" He clearly remembered that it was on Huafang Lake.

"I don't know." Lin Jing was also stunned, but just shook his head, "When I saw you, you were already here, you are good, even if you are drunk, you still know the road." ”

But there was something flickering in Rong Zhaozhong's eyes.

It's just that at this time, the orchestra is hoarse, and there are dancing girls circling between the cups, and the dinner party begins.

Li Ran'er stayed in the house, only looking at the lights outside that were brighter than the starlight, listening to the annoying song and swallow dance, only to feel more and more annoyed, just swept the pen and inkstone on the table to deflat, "It must be that damn Xue'er, she is so bold!" ”

"She may not have such courage," Shen also felt that there was no face, but when he thought of the eldest grandmother You Shi in the Rongguo Mansion, Shen's eyes were vicious, "I'm afraid that some people are annoyed that your father is in a high position, so they did something." ”

Li Ran'er finally remembered, "Mother is talking ......"

Shen Shu only let out a low cold laugh.

At this time, elsewhere, Zhen Niang just looked at the prosperity outside the house with envy, "It's really lively!" ”

Chu Muran just smiled faintly, "Don't Zhen Niang want to go over?" You are the second girl in the Guogong Mansion, and you should be in the past. ”

"Me?" Zhenniang looked down at herself, and remembered that Ran'er took a brocade robe, "Standing next to Ran'er, I should be very ugly." Besides, I don't have decent clothes. ”

"Zhenniang." Chu Muran put away the pen in his hand, "It turns out that you are worried about this." ”

She got up as she spoke, and just took out a simple set of pure white soft silver light lily skirts from the counter, only with a thin veil of emerald water, which looked only light, and it couldn't be more simple.

Zhenniang is puzzled, just based on these?

"You have an unusual charm, that brocade dress matches you, cheesy." Chu Muran only said shallowly.

Zhenniang was stunned for a moment, and there seemed to be something blocked in her mouth, and she couldn't say anything.

"I mean, clothes, vulgar and unbearable." Chu Muran only chuckled, then pulled Zhen Niang to change her clothes, dyed her eyebrows with a faint rouge, and used a small pen, just a few strokes, and outlined the outline of the eyes, only to feel that the starlight between the bright eyes was shining, just a light plum blossom makeup, which showed an outstanding demeanor and a face that captivated the country and the city.

Zhen Niang seemed to be incredulous, her right hand lightly covered her face, and her eyes were full of wordless amazement.

"It's just ......" The moonlight outside the house was too cold, like a sudden coldness in her heart, "Mu Ran, I'm not a long-sleeved dancer. ”

Yes, Zhenniang has been frail and sick since she was a child, and she lies on the bed all day to recuperate, but she just reads a few books and can write a few words.

Neither can play the piano nor have the strength to dance, so naturally Li Ran'er has lost her elegance.

Such a self, no matter how amazing it is, is just a vase.

Zhenniang thought about it like this and became depressed again, her face was full of sadness, I really felt pity.

Chu Muran only smiled faintly.

The courtyard was lively again, and after the singing and dancing, I don't know which family's son-in-law seemed to be a little displeased, "Why don't you see a son-in-law girl from the Li family, don't you look down on us?" ”

Then came the echo of the crowd.

The maid hurriedly informed Shen, and Shen couldn't help but feel worried.

Li Ran'er was even more at a loss, and threw herself into Shen's arms and only cried, "Mother, how can I meet people?" ”

"You just go out, it's just a momentary loss, these people, also forget." Shen really has no choice.

"They must be laughing at their daughter, don't you know how hateful those sons are, not to mention ......" and Lin Rui, but she didn't know if Lin Rui saw her embarrassment during the day?

The disdain in the courtyard grew up.

"Could it be that Lord Li only has one daughter?" Lin Jing shouted loudly with the intention of drinking.

Rong Zhaozhong stopped drinking, but just sneered and looked at Lin Jing with a smug look on his face.

"Jing'er." Lin Rui seemed to have some blame in his eyes.

"Brother." Lin Jing pouted, "I just can't get used to seeing people in their family look down on you and look down on our family." ”

Lin Rui suddenly stopped talking and didn't say any more.

"Mother, you listen to them!" Li Ran'er became more and more panicked.

Shen's face turned completely cold.

Could it be that Master Li only has one daughter?

Li Incheon naturally has more than one daughter.

"Go, invite the second girl over." Shen said coldly.

Li Ran'er quieted down a little, it was time to let Li Zhenniang come out, she had neither virtue nor art, and she had been lying on the couch since she was a child, and she didn't have a few decent clothes.

Since she is ugly, she can't let Li Zhenniang be proud!

"Yes, let her go!" Li Ran'er hurriedly agreed.

The maid immediately went to invite Li Zhenniang.

But she didn't want to, Zhenniang had already stepped out of the door.

Under the dim moonlight, I saw a woman dressed in white, just wearing waist-length long hair, wearing a simple white dress, so simple and elegant, so simple, is it really impossible to take out clothes?

Are the corners of Cui'er's mouth faintly disdainful, or is she sick and confused?

Thinking like this, Cui'er had already stepped up to Zhen Niang, leaned over slightly and said, "Second girl, the eldest lady invited the girl to the courtyard. ”

"Got it." The voice was cold, but the answer was Chu Muran, without a trace of emotion, making people feel like an abyss of ice.

Cui'er shuddered, and didn't dare to stay any longer, but led the two to the courtyard.

Zhen Niang finally slowly walked into the center of the courtyard, the song and dance faded, and she was alone, white clothes scattered, but she was at a loss.

The darkness covered Zhen Niang's face.

The bottom turned their heads and ears, just looking at the woman who was standing, with deeper disdain in their eyes.

Li Ran'er stood in the shadows and finally laughed softly.

Rong Zhaozhong had already left unintentionally, got up, "Let's go." ”

Lin Jing was dissatisfied, "I haven't finished reading this joke yet." ”

"I'm leaving." Rong Zhao Zhong has long been impatient, without wine, it is hell on earth.

It was at this time that the music poured out from the flowers, like moonlight from the horizon.

Rong called the bell for a moment, for the music, but also for the fragrance of the tip of the nose.

Refreshing and cool.
