The soft sword in Pei Yao's hand loosened slightly, Mu Chuyu quickly turned around, grabbed the sword, covered her mouth, and dragged her to a small elevated table with antique vases and squatted down.

The snoring sound came and went in an instant.

“……”

Mu Chuyu covered Pei Yao's mouth and took her to the backyard of Chunxin Building before letting go.

Pei Yao gulped in the first wave of fresh air that flowed under her nose, and then ...... I wanted to give Mu Chuyu a slap with my backhand, but the timing was not right, Mu Chuyu grabbed her wrist like an unpredictable prophet, glanced at her lightly, and said with a mocking smile: "You with thin arms and thin legs, you are not suitable for martial arts!" ”

"Cut! Isn't a woman like Liling also strong in martial arts? Pei Yao immediately retorted, as if she had almost forgotten about the "kidnapping" of Mu Chuyu just now.

"People have soft bones, suitable for martial arts, and are willing to work hard, what about you? The bones are hard, and they will make a crunchy sound when they move slightly, and they have a fifteen or sixteen-year-old face, but they support a sixty or seventy-year-old skeleton! The congenital conditions are insufficient, and the day after tomorrow will only 'fish for three days and dry nets for two days'......" Mu Chuyu triumphantly teased the three-legged cat's kung fu on Pei Yao's body, but before he could finish counting, disaster came out of his mouth......

Pei Yao kicked his inner thigh, yes! She did it on purpose!

Mu Chuyu was so painful that she let go of her wrist as soon as possible, her eyes widened, her eyes, ears, mouth and nose were held together, she clenched her teeth and bent over to gently rub the piece of meat that was kicked: "If you want to kick one more point, our Mu family's incense will be broken!" ”

Who taught you to talk nonsense and talk nonsense? What do you do with your mother fishing for a few days and drying nets for a few days? Moreover! You know a! Pei Yao muttered in her heart, tilted her chin, and glared at him pointedly.

"Forget it! I'm not joking with you anymore," Mu Chuyu waved his hand, shook his head as if admitting defeat, "Speaking of what I just proposed, do you think it's feasible?" ”

Pei Yao then remembered that she had taken out Mu Chuyu's suggestion when she was in Song's mother's room, and after thinking about it for a while, she said, "Okay!" But - I have to add one more condition! As she spoke, she took out a right index finger and looked at Mu Chuyu with a smile.

Mu Chuyu caught a trace of fleeting cunning from Pei Yao's eyes, but he still pulled the corners of his mouth and promised very crisply: "No problem!" You said! ”

Pei Yao walked up to him with her hands behind her back and stood upright, looking up at him: "Accompany me to Bishui Villa!" ”

Mu Chuyu: "......? ”

"Song Xiang, the old owner of Bishui Villa, wants to marry his daughter! I accepted the commission of Qi Chai, the richest man in the capital, to join the welcoming team responsible for escorting Miss Song to ensure her safety all the way north! I heard about Qi Chai's son...... It's called ...... What's going on? Pei Yao's fingers were about to pierce her scalp, and she didn't remember what the name of that "son" was.

"Qi Feng Su!" Mu Chuyu reminded her that the sneering attitude said it all.

"Hmm...... It's the same wind...... I heard that he has now gone to Bishui Villa! Pei Yao was not only grateful, but also rolled her eyes.

"The son of the richest man in the capital marries the first beauty in the rivers and lakes, interesting! Interesting! No problem! I'll accompany you to Bishui Villa! Mu Chuyu nodded, and couldn't help but say.

The two left the backyard, Mu Chuyu's clothes inadvertently swept over the white begonias swaying in the moonlight, Pei Yao's heart tightened and relaxed, and she followed him quickly with a smile. This white begonia is undefeated in all seasons, huge and dazzling, but it also disguises itself according to the flow of the seasons with different flower colors: white begonias in spring, violets in summer, golden flower tea in autumn, and tiger thorn plum in winter.

However, at the end of each night, he will restore his true body, absorb the aura of the moonlight, gather blood for miles to nourish the root body, and will not put on his disguise again until the time of the day, and smile brightly at the world.

If Mu Chuyu is careful enough, he will definitely find this weird begonia! It's just that the backyard of the general Qinlou Chu Pavilion will not be a place of defeat, here are scattered with a variety of flower stands, the fragrance is pleasant, the wooden swing under the flower stand also exudes a faint fragrance, even the rope hanging the swing is ingenious with the creeper circling up, plus the girls' dresses hanging in the backyard, as soon as the wind blows, the aroma of the soaphorn can be sent into the nose, not to mention that the men who come to the Spring Heart Building will only pay attention to the dazzling style of dresses, such as belly pockets, belts, tulle, etc., Who will enjoy the elegant courtyard view? And...... That begonia flower? Of course, Mu Chuyu was no exception, but for the sake of prudence, Pei Yao still tried to draw Mu Chuyu's attention to herself.

Bishui Villa is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery, in order to get there as soon as possible, Mu Chuyu proposed to take the waterway, and Pei Yao also nodded in agreement.

The two of them prepared enough dry food and came to the wharf to inquire about the price, an old boatman saw that they were extraordinary, outstanding in temperament, and in brocade clothes, dashing, guessed that it must be the son of a rich family, wiped a handful of old faces and walked towards them with a smile, and the face that had just been ironed immediately wrinkled into bark: "Dare to ask where the son and the young lady are going?" Why don't you give you a ride? He hunched his back and bowed his hand.

I don't know if it's because he's been in the water for a long time, Pei Yao feels a trace of dampness in his tone.

"Blue Water Villa!" Pei Yao replied politely.

The old boatman lowered his eyes, broke his scarred and rough hand, thought for a moment and raised his eyes and smiled: "How about fifty wen?" ”

Pei Yao saw the big hand that was about to reach her face, she couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart, turned her head and sought Mu Chuyu's opinion with her eyes, but Mu Chuyu lowered her eyelids and nodded.

"Not good!" Pei Yao suddenly retorted.

The old boatman was anxious all of a sudden, he had been carefully observing his words and feelings, seeing that Mu Chuyu nodded, the heart hanging in his heart finally fell by half of it, but before his heart was swallowed in his stomach, he was choked half to death by this girl's words, he wiped his muddy tears and complained aggrievedly: "This young lady, now the world is not good, bandits are rampant, we poor people are almost unable to drink porridge, please have mercy on me, I am a lonely old man, reward me with a bowl of porridge to drink!" ”

Mu Chuyu was thinking about how this person from Begonia Pavilion could be so ruthless, and he was about to poke Pei Yao's arm with his elbow, but found that she was already teary-eyed......

She pouted at the old boatman and said, "Old man, I mean it takes 7 days to go to Bishui Villa at the earliest, and you earn 50 wen too little!" I'll give you a tael! Her voice choked slightly.

The old boatman's joy and sorrow were too fast, and he didn't react for a while, and he was stunned for a few breaths before he wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Pei Yao stopped him and helped him up: "Old man! We're in a hurry, let's go! ”

After receiving the silver from Pei Yao, the old boatman thanked them again and again, and led them onto his own small rocking boat.

Untie the rope, raise the sail, hold the oars, all in one go, the old boatman smiled, and his hands were naturally full of energy.

After Mu Chuyu sat in the cabin, she was still puzzled by Pei Yao's tears at that time - a professional killer, although his martial arts are very bad, how can he look like a sentimental girl from a good family?

Pei Yao was originally sitting opposite Mu Chuyu, holding her chin to watch the old man rowing, but at this time, the waves were sparkling in the distance, and a gradient red glow appeared on the horizon.

She stepped out of the cabin, sat casually on the edge of the boat, and asked politely: "Old man, when you were at the ferry, I heard you say that 'bandits are rampant', is this really the case?" Doesn't the government care? ”

Mu Chuyu, who was bored, also walked out of the cabin and sat beside her, admiring the retreating green mountains and flowing clouds casually.

"Miss, you are so naïve! Even if the government wants to manage it, it can't control it! Those are all people on the rivers and lakes, coming and going without a trace, it's not easy to do! The old boatman dragged out the last word, like a mountain song sung in the sunset, but in fact it was a helpless sigh.

The old man pushed the oar and no longer opened the cavity, and the protruding shoulder blades fell together. Pei Yao was silent, she lowered her eyelids and played with the nepotism of her clothes, thinking of the sinister way of the world, and of the poor people surviving in the gap between the rivers and lakes and the imperial court...... Thinking about it, Pei Yao herself is just a "bandit" in the old man's mouth.

Mu Chuyu had been silent, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Pei Yao's eyelids, which were as thick and slender as butterfly wings, trembling in the soft light, and inadvertently lost his mind: Looking at Pei Yao like this, she is actually a great beauty!

Perhaps it was his snort that disturbed Pei Yao's contemplation, she raised her head suddenly, and the two faced each other, only a finger's width apart in between, and in an instant, her rapid and warm breath drove a frantic heartbeat. I thought that Pei Yao would blush immediately, but who knew that it was Mu Chuyu who blushed this time, and the color of his cheeks was comparable to the red sun that had just fallen.

Pei Yao pushed him away, causing him to sit on the deck with his buttocks, causing his butt to hurt, and the look in his eyes changed from the initial tenderness to the shyness of Fang Cai, and then to the current anger: "You! ”

"Stinky rascal!" Pei Yao threw down these three words and staggered past him, and walked back to the cabin quickly.

Even if Mu Chuyu was angry, he couldn't vent in the face of the little girl, so he could only cry and laugh, complaining that he was unlucky.

"My Fair Lady, Gentleman!" The old man who was paddling smiled into a slit in his eyes, and admonished the sky, "If the son wants to hold the beauty, I'm afraid he will have to put in a little more effort!" Ha ha! ”

After listening to the old man's words, Mu Chuyu smiled and said nothing, stood up and patted his clothes, calmly walked to the bow of the boat, and slid away the elegant paper fan in his hand.

His long back was gilded with a layer of gold, and he looked more and more personable.
