Chapter 59: The Ghost of the Mountain Villa (3)

Mingyue immediately opened the door, and sure enough, she saw Su Yunkai standing at the door.

Su Yunkai saw the wooden stick in her hand at a glance, and couldn't help laughing, "Scared you?" Think it's a thief? ”

Mingyue sneered, and threw away the wooden stick with a "bang", "Why are you still here so late, this place is far away from your house, right?" She looked at the official uniform on his body, and there was a faint smell of alcohol in her nose, and whispered, "They dragged you to drink again?" ”

"In the officialdom, it is inevitable to exchange pleasantries, there are many people who are drunk more than me, I don't drink much, and the smell of alcohol is also smoked by them."

"How can you smoke it like this?" Mingyue leaned around and said, "Come in, I'll go cook you a hangover soup." ”

Su Yunkai stepped forward to progress, his left foot was out, but he was forced to retract it, three shifts in the middle of the night, a lonely man and a widow...... smiled, "No need, I'm here to ask if you've been having a good time lately." ”

"Great, the little monkey took me everywhere and took me to ride a horse, the horse farm is so big, you can't see the end at a glance. There is also Momoyama, but the peaches are not ripe, and he said that when they are ripe, he will take me to pick peaches. And ......"

Mingyue said a lot in one breath, and Su Yunkai was relieved, it seemed that she was really playing well. It's just a little monkey and a little monkey, he is still a little panicked in his heart, the person who accompanies her to do these things should be his, not Qin Fang.

"It's good if you have fun, I'll accompany you when you're free."

"Hmm."

Su Yunkai said again, "I'm free tomorrow, what about you?" ”

"Yes, I'm just eating, drinking, and having fun now."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Then I'll pick you up tomorrow evening, I said that I would go to see the lanterns and put Kong Ming lanterns together, although I made an appointment with the Daimyo's Mansion, but Kaifeng's Tanabata Festival is also very good." ”

Mingyue didn't expect him to remember, and he came over to talk about it, was he afraid that she would forget, or was it to show solemnity? But no matter what it was, she felt that Su Yunkai respected her wishes very much, and her worries in the past few days were turning over at this moment, and she really wanted to keep him for a while.

At this time, someone in the alley came out to pour water, and the sound of water was loud, and Su Yunkai said, "Then I'll go first." ”

Mingyue was reluctant in her heart, but she nodded, he took care of her reputation, she should love herself more, "You go back and be careful, it's too late." ”

Su Yun smiled, the meaning of tomorrow's invitation was conveyed, and when she agreed, it was like a matter of heart was over, and when she came out of the alley, she felt that her steps were much lighter.

Walking home, Master Su and Mrs. Su had not yet gone to bed, and when they heard him return, Mrs. Su ordered someone to send the soup stewed in the kitchen. When the next person came back, he asked him if the young master had drunk well, and the next person replied, "The young master said that he would not drink, and he would sleep after washing, for fear that he would not be able to sleep after drinking." ”

Mrs. Su said, "It's strange, isn't the young master always going to bed early, always busy until the middle of the night, and I can't wait to finish all the official duties of the year." ”

Master Su and his wife have a good relationship, and when he looked up, he saw the faint moonlight outside the window, and remembered something, "Tomorrow's Tanabata, is it an appointment." ”

Mrs. Su smiled, "Impossible. ”

Master Su smiled, "How is it impossible? I spend Tanabata with you every year, why can't your son spend time with a girl? In terms of age, it's time to arrive. ”

"But where does Kai'er have time to meet the girl, he knows that he is buried in the yamen every day."

Master Su thought about it, his son was very obedient, he didn't like to go to the wine and drink, and he didn't like to go to the banquet, either to accompany Shangfeng to drink, or to guard the yamen, how could he know the girl's family. He said after a while, "But do you remember the maid next to him when he was in the Daimyo's Mansion?" If you are close to the water, that girl is most likely. ”

"She also came to Kaifeng?"

"Xu yes, isn't the white catcher who was recommended to go to the government with that girl, he is here, and the girl may also come."

Mrs. Su's face was slightly heavy, she sat down slowly, and asked tentatively, "Female servant...... Where is that girl's hometown, and how old is she? ”

Master Su smiled bitterly, "How do I know, if you are curious, call your son to ask now." Maybe we thought about it too much, but in fact, the two had nothing to do with each other, and the girl didn't come to the capital. ”

"It's not." Mrs. Su interrupted him, "I was wondering if that girl could be from Qinghe County." ”

Master Su was stunned, "Can't ......"

"Why can't you, who would take a girl as a servant, unless it's the family that does this." Mrs. Su's heart was a little tumbling, "No, I have to ask someone to inquire about her life experience." ”

Seeing that she was firm, Master Su didn't refute it, read a good word, and told the housekeeper to check it out, and finally he said, "If you think about it too much, but the two are indeed close, you should be a mother, take care of it." ”

Mrs. Su wrinkled her eyebrows and looked at him, "Fool...... Your and my lives were saved by pretending, did you forget? ”

Master Su chuckled in his heart, and he had nothing to refute for a while.

On the day of Qixi Festival, Qin Fang went to the government office early in the morning to wait for Baishui. There were many people in and out of the yamen, and there were always a few who knew him, and as soon as the people in the yamen said it, Bai Shui immediately heard it and knew that he must have come to find him, so he looked for an opportunity to go out.

Qin Fang, who had been scorched by the sun for a long time, was almost sunburned, and when he saw her come out, he immediately ran over, but she stared at her. He slowed down and followed her far behind. After turning a lot of roads, I saw her enter an alley.

"Water, water."

Bai Shui turned around and glared at him, "Don't call my name outside, what are you doing here?" ”

Qin Fang didn't answer, and touched the top of his hot head, "Is there white smoke coming out of my head?" It's all on fire. ”

Bai Shui pushed away his head and twisted his eyebrows, "What do you have to say, I have to go back on an errand." ”

Qin Fang put down his hand and said seriously, "Today is Qixi Festival, I found the two best locations on the largest flower boat in Jingshi, let's go to see the river lantern together." ”

“…… How do two 'men' go together? ”

Qin Fang then remembered, "I was negligent, so let's find a quiet place to sit." ”

Bai Shui thought for a moment, "If there is nothing wrong with the Yamen, I will leave early, and then I will see you in the small stream in the southwest, where the river is small, and it is estimated that there is no one." ”

After hearing her words, Qin Fang was satisfied, "Then I'll wait for you." ”

"Got it, you go out first, don't let people see it."

Qin Fang only felt that they were even more constrained when they came here, and it was better to be in the Daimyo's Mansion. And at that time, she was still under the same roof, and she could see it every day, but now she is not in the same place, she sees it rarely, and she is desperately on an errand, bent on taking root, and she has no time to meet.

Looking at her emaciated cheeks, Qin Fang reached out and touched it, "Shuishui, don't be too difficult for yourself, eat and sleep well, don't collapse your body." ”

Bai Shui grabbed his hand and put it down, and quickly glanced outside the alley, fortunately there was no one, "If you don't go, I'll go first, see you later." ”

After saying that, she ran away, and Qin Fang didn't even have time to answer. Seeing her running away in a hurry, Qin Fang stood in place for a long time, he and Bai Shui shouldn't be like this. She was mad when she came to Kaifeng, he understood her urgency to find her brother, but she seemed to have completely forgotten about him.

It's a really bad feeling.

After lunch, he went to the best restaurant in Kyoto early to order two boxes of dishes and a bottle of mild millet wine, and on the way, he carried a pocket of small river lanterns, and went to the creek to wait for the white water to come.

At sunset and dusk, Mingyue was also ready to go out, she ran outside the door to look at it several times, knowing that Su Yun was not so early, she still went to see it a few times, for fear that he would come and wait.

As soon as the unitary hour arrived, there was a gentle knock on the door outside, accompanied by Su Yunkai's voice inside.

Mingyue trotted over to open the door, saw that he was still wearing the official uniform of the Ministry of Rites, looked up and down, and said with wide eyes, "You go out in an official uniform, aren't you afraid that others will look at you?" ”

Su Yun laughed and said, "I'll come over when I release the ya, but it's okay to be in the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if you point to it at the feet of either an official or a powerful person, the people are not surprised." And I think, there must be a lot of people tonight, I'm wearing an official uniform, and others don't dare to squeeze too hard. ”

Mingyue smiled, "It turns out that the official uniform is armor. ”

The two laughed and went out together, it was almost dusk, and there were already many young men and women walking around in pairs on the street, or the girls' families were walking together, all of them holding small lanterns in their hands, and it seemed that they were looking for a river to put lights.

Su Yunkai still had a red rope in his money bag that had been put in the morning, and he heard Qin Fang say that when the lantern was finished, he would be able to go to the Yuelao Temple, so that he had a better chance of success. He smiled, when did he believe this.

Mingyue suddenly laughed when she saw him, she didn't know what she was happy about, and when she saw him laughing, she smiled herself. Su Yunkai saw her smile and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"When I see you laughing, I want to laugh too."

The two looked at each other and smiled, no temptation, no restraint, no rustiness, walking side by side, occasionally saying a word or two, and feeling that there was a warm current in their hearts, overflowing their hearts.

As dusk fell, and as soon as the night began, the lights on the streets were lit one after another, and the silver trees were all over the place, like the stars turned upside down.

The small river passing through has seen lanterns drifting, all of which are very light and chic, and they have not sunk for a long time.

Su Yunkai and Mingyue went to the stall to pick up two lamps, and also found a place to light up the drifting.

It's fun here, Qin Fang has been feeding mosquitoes in the stream for a long time.

I spent half a day in the sun during the day, and now I have waited for half a day, and I have been bitten by mosquitoes with five or six red mouths. He couldn't wait for Bai Shui, and his stomach was hungry, so he silently nibbled on the pastry, patting the mosquitoes from time to time, thinking about when Bai Shui would come.

Su Yunkai and Mingyue came out after putting out the river lanterns, went to eat some fruit snacks, and then went to the tower to release Kong Ming's lanterns, which is more than half of the Qixi Festival.

Coming down from the tower, Su Yunkai shook the red rope in the money bag, looked at Mingyue and said, "It's still early, it's better to go ......."

"Su Yunkai?"

The voice is hearty and energetic, with a loud laughter, Mingyue listened to the voice of a bold person, turned her head to look, and saw a man in a fancy dress of about twenty-seven or eighteen walking quickly here, but his tough face was not too fair, but it seemed to be from the military.

Su Yunkai lowered his head and said quickly and softly, "Pingxi Hou Yu Fenglin, as a general, has been stationed outside the Saiwai for a long time, and has only returned to the DPRK in recent months, and has military merits, and is a famous 'Wu Prime Minister' in the imperial court." ”
