"Xiyu, what are you still standing here? Tea is not served yet. He picked up the small plate of puff pastry with his own hands and smiled at Leng Ruoyun, "Let's go, fourth sister, let's go to the tree to eat and chat." ”

Xiyu saw that Leng Ruolan was fine after eating the whole puff pastry, and was temporarily relieved. instructed Xiaocui to make tea, but he still didn't feel at ease and kept following the two of them.

The two drank tea, ate snacks under the tree, and chatted for almost an hour before Leng Ruoyun got up and said goodbye, "Sister likes to eat, next time Xiaohong goes to buy it, I ask her to bring you an extra one." Leng Ruoyun took Leng Ruolan's hand intimately and stood up as she spoke.

"That's very good, I've thanked the fourth sister here first."

"My sister is polite to my sister. Then I'll go back first, and I'll come back tomorrow to accompany my sister. ”

"Hmm," the two walked hand in hand to the door of the Xiangyuan Garden, and Leng Ruolan stopped. Xiyu followed behind Leng Ruolan and waited until she couldn't see Leng Ruoyun's figure, "Miss, don't you think that the fourth miss has been a little abnormal recently?" ”

"Anomaly?"

"Fourth Miss didn't run to the Xiangyuan every day like she does now," Xiyu said simply.

"I know what you're trying to say, but people always change, so don't be suspicious all day long." In fact, Leng Ruolan also suspected Leng Ruoyun's motives, but she didn't want to jump to conclusions until she found evidence.

People change, what matters is why they change, and it is impossible to say that they will change. But since the young lady said so, it was inconvenient for her to say more, so she had to pay more attention to herself. Xi Yu just wanted to remind Leng Ruolan to go back to the house to rest, but saw that she had already raised her feet first, but the direction was not in the Xiangxiang Garden.

"Miss, why did you come to the library? If you want to read any book, just ask Xiyu to get it. I followed Leng Ruolan all the way, thinking that she just wanted to walk outside, but I didn't expect that she was coming to the library.

"I'm going to have to look for it myself to find out which one to read. Why didn't you see the scholar? You go find the bookkeeper to open the door, and I'm going to go in and find some books. ”

"Yes, Miss wait a while, Xiyu will come when she goes."

It didn't take long for Xiyu to bring back an old man who looked like a teacher. This is the "Book Waiter"? When I first heard the name of the scholar, I thought it was a little boy like a scholar, but I didn't expect it to be an old man!

When Lin Xuezhi heard that Leng Ruolan was coming, he hurriedly ran to open the door. There are several sons and young ladies in Bishui Pavilion, and only this second lady likes to run to this library, so Lin Xuezhi is also familiar with her.

"Ruolan girl hasn't been to the library for a long time? What kind of wind has blown you here today? ”

What is the relationship between this old man Lin and Leng Ruolan, why is he so affectionate? Although his heart was strange, his face was silent, "During this time, Ruolan is ill and rarely comes to the library to walk around, I hope Mr. will forgive me." ”

"It's still just as serious, it's just that, I won't tease you. I heard that I fell into Willow Lake a few days ago, and my body is okay, right? ”

"Mr. has a heart, Ruolan is fine."

"That's good, be careful in everything. By the way, I heard that the second lady is going to be a bride, congratulations. ”

"Sir, don't laugh Ruolan," his face matched with his voice, which made Lin Xuezhi laugh even more. Xiyu stood aside, also pursing her lips and snickering.

"What book do you want to read today, do you need me to introduce you?" Lin Xuezhi asked as he opened the door.

Leng Ruolan shook her head, "Don't bother Mr., Ruolan just wants to take a look at it at will." ”

"Okay, what do you need to call me again."

"Well, sir, go slowly."

Waiting for Lin Xueyi to leave, Leng Ruolan pushed the door and rushed into the study. As soon as I entered, I was taken aback by the rows of bookshelves, so many books! The collection of books here is equivalent to that of a small modern library. Looking at the rows and rows of bookshelves, Leng Ruolan couldn't help but admire Lin Xuezhi. All the books were organized into categories, even in the same way as a modern alphabetical search, in each category by the number of strokes. This Lin Xuezhi is not an ordinary person!

Xiyu couldn't help but feel strange when she saw Leng Ruolan walking around the bookshelf without reaching out for the books, "Miss, don't you have a book you want to read?" "It is said that the young lady should be familiar with how to arrange the books in the library, and it is the first time that she has seen her walk around the bookshelf like this after so many times with her.

"Oh, I want to go first, I haven't been here for so many days, and I miss the smell of books here," Leng Ruolan said the reason she had come up with.

Xiyu heard her say this, and sure enough, she didn't ask any more. After walking through the entire study, Leng Ruolan walked back to the target bookshelf she had just written down, looking at the titles on it, looking serious and thoughtful. At the moment when she couldn't help but speak, she stood on tiptoe and took out a copy of "Walking Blue Waves" from the bookshelf above, flipped through it casually, let her take it, and took out another copy of "Flying on Water", flipped it over, and stuffed it to her, and finally took "Like Water" and "Lengjia Swordsmanship" in a row, leaning on the bookshelf and reading it.

"Miss, what do you think of this?!" Xiyu snatched the book from Leng Ruolan's hand and didn't let her read it.

Tsk, the effect is surprisingly good. "I think if I know martial arts, I won't be afraid to fall into the water again, and I can fly on my own."

"Didn't the pavilion master say that the young lady's body is congenitally deficient and she is not suitable for martial arts?"

"I don't practice martial arts, I practice internal skills, and the book says that good internal skills can be invulnerable and invulnerable!"

"Miss, don't listen to the nonsense in the book, there are also requirements for cultivating internal strength. Hasn't Miss been cultivating like water all the time? Just keep going, don't think about anything else. ”

"But Rushui doesn't seem to be of much use," Leng Ruolan looked disgusted, but in fact, she laughed quickly and hurt herself.

"The pavilion master asked Miss to cultivate like water to strengthen her body, not to hurt people, Miss is in such good health now that it proves that it is useful, isn't it?"

"Well, Xiyu knows so much, I don't even know that my father wants me to cultivate like water."

"Don't take it to heart, Miss."

"Don't worry, I'm going to reward you, if it weren't for you, I would have learned a lot." Thanks to you, I know everything. Well, it turns out that I really know how to use internal strength, "like water" is really soft enough, but unfortunately I can only use it "internally" and not "externally". "Alright, let's go back."

In the end, I walked around the library for a long time, and I came out empty-handed as when I came.

When passing by the garden, I happened to meet Liu Muqing's mother and son, and Leng Ruolan respectfully greeted her. Secretly looked around, but didn't see Leng Ruomeng's figure.

Liu Muqing didn't embarrass her unusually, and told her a few words to pay attention to her body, and continued to move forward with Leng Jinhan. Leng Ruolan felt flattered, and wondered in her heart, why did the top and bottom of Bishui Pavilion become so friendly for a while? It's just that why she always clings to her mother's cold dreams before she disappears? Thinking of the crazy that day, I don't know what happened? After thinking about it for a while, he didn't stop at his feet, and said casually, "It's strange, why don't you see the eldest sister these days?" ”

"Miss doesn't know? The eldest lady was grounded by the pavilion master. ”

"Grounded? Why? No wonder I didn't see her just now. ”

"I heard that she has been pestering the owner of Yuchi Village, and one night she even ran to the bed of the owner of Yuchi Village and didn't leave. When the pavilion master found out, he made a big fire, and ordered that before the owner of Wei Chi Zhuang left the Bishui Pavilion, she was not allowed to take half a step out of the Yimengju. ”

Uh, that's too extravagant! I didn't expect that there were such "informal" women in ancient times! "This can't be blamed on the eldest sister, she has liked Brother Xuan since she was a child, and it is normal for her to suddenly hear that Brother Xuan wants to marry someone else."

"Isn't Miss angry? The owner of the village is the husband of the young lady. ”

Angry?! If Leng Ruomeng can break up this marriage, I will laugh three times to congratulate me! I was speechless when I was suddenly accused of marriage, and I was still a troublesome man like Wei Chixuan, God was clearly playing tricks on me. "She is my sister, and she should have been the one who married Brother Xuan, but now that her father has arranged it like this, it is understandable that she is angry. If Brother Hyun says to marry his sister now, I will sincerely bless them. ”

"Miss is just too kind, no matter what, now the person Yu Chizhuang is mainly marrying is Miss, and Miss should defend her happiness."

"Xiyu is talking nonsense again, Ruolan is all arranged by her father, as for the rest, you can only go with the flow." Stopping the words that Xi Yu didn't speak, Leng Ruolan didn't say anything more, and walked forward silently thoughtfully. Liu Muqing's reaction was eerily calm, what is implied in this? These days, Liu Muqing has come to Xiangyuan with Leng Jianfeng every time, and then she stood quietly aside, Leng Ruolan thought that she was so peaceful because of Leng Jianfeng's presence, but she didn't expect that this time Leng Jianfeng was not present, and it was calm! Although her health has been almost better in the past few days, in order to avoid the difficulties that Liu Muqing may have, she used her body as an excuse that she did not heal and did not go to Zhendeju to ask for peace, after all, the cold that emanated from her eyes that day was so terrifying. Now it seems that tomorrow it may be time to resume the daily routine of greetings.

"Miss, Miss!"

"Ah, ah, what's wrong?" Leng Ruolan was so engrossed that she couldn't figure out the situation in the face of Xiyu's sudden call.

Xiyu looked sideways at the gate of the Xiangyuan Garden, and then looked at Leng Ruolan who couldn't enter the door, "Where does the young lady want to go, don't you go back to the Xiangyuan Garden?" ”

"Uh," Leng Ruolan's eyes blinked twice in confusion before she reacted, smiled awkwardly, and turned her front foot towards the gate of the Xiangyuan Garden.

Xiyu followed behind her, her eyes dark. Miss, what are you thinking?

Looking at the deep gate of Zhende's residence, Leng Ruolan's heart still couldn't help but tremble, she took a deep breath, what she always had to face, instead of guessing behind her back without knowing it, it was better to take the initiative to find out her true intentions. Waiting for the reported maid to come back and summon her, Leng Ruolan is no longer nervous! With a steady pace, he followed the maid to the hall, and looked around, all the members of the Leng family were basically there, but Leng Ruomeng was replaced by Wei Chixuan!

Seeing Yu Chixuan, Leng Ruolan was a little stunned, after meeting him in Liuhu the day before yesterday, she hadn't seen him, she didn't expect to meet on such an occasion. Thinking of the scene that day, he unconsciously glared at him, and then received a smile from Yu Chi Xuan. Leng Ruolan realized that she had done another stupid thing just now, so she turned her eyes away and ignored him. After respectfully saluting Leng Jianfeng and Liu Muqing, he walked to the position next to Leng Jinhan and sat down.
