Chapter 207: Coincidence
The little girl came over to salute Liu Ruoxi, saying that it was a message from Su Qingnuan, and Su Qingnuan and the three sisters of the Wei family were playing in the courtyard and invited Liu Ruoxi to come over.
"The seventh girl said that she didn't have time to talk to the third girl today, she missed the third girl very much, and asked the third girl to go over, so everyone could talk slowly." The little girl said with a smile.
The little girl was talking at Liu Ruoxi's table, and Su heard it over there.
“…… Since it's the Seven Girls and the Nine Girls, they call you, it's time to go shopping. It is better for you young ladies to be in one place than to sit here with us. Su Shi smiled and said to Liu Ruoxi.
The little girl came to pass the word, Liu Ruoxi wanted to find an excuse to excuse herself, but Su Shi said this again, and Liu Ruoxi couldn't refuse for a while.
Second Mrs. Liu nodded to Liu Ruoxi.
"It's the kindness of the Seventh Girl and the Ninth Girl. After sitting for a long time, let your sisters also go and disperse. Second Mrs. Liu also said to Liu Ruoxi.
Liu Ruoshan glanced at Liu Ruoshan, Liu Ruoshan is a lively personality, and she can't wait to go around, so she smiled and nodded to Liu Ruoshan, she naturally wanted to go with Liu Ruoshan.
"I'm also going for a walk with my third sister." Liu Ruoyuan was on the side, and she was already a little uncomfortable. Many things that have happened in the Liu family recently still have a lot of impact on Liu Ruoyuan. For example, when she came to Yongjing Mansion today, Liu Ruoyuan was much more honest and silent than before, and she also learned to look at the faces of Second Mrs. Liu and Third Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu San exchanged glances with Mrs. Liu Er. Mrs. Liu San was reluctant to let Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan leave her sight, but at this time, it was not good to keep only the two of her by her side.
"It's okay for you all to go for a walk," Mrs. Liu San said, looking at Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan with a warning in her eyes, "Don't go far, come back early." You're the big sister. Don't forget the old lady's instructions. ”
"Don't dare to forget the old lady's instructions." Liu Ruoyuan said busily.
Liu Ruojuan also chimed in.
Mrs. Liu said that if Liu Ruoyuan or Liu Ruojuan make any more trouble today, then don't think about leaving the house again in the future. Liu Ruoyuan knew that the situation was out of her mind, and although she was unwilling, she had to abide by her duty.
Mrs. Liu San nodded at this time.
Liu Ruoxi got up, and Liu Ruoshan, Liu Ruoyuan, Liu Ruojuan, and the eldest sister came out of the warm pavilion, and the little girl who came to talk just now led the way in front, and walked all the way to the west end of the garden, very quickly. Liu Ruoxi saw that in front of her was the wall of Yunshuiju, and then there was Zhiting.
Su Qingnuan, Miss Wei Jiu, Miss Wei Wu and Miss Wei Liu were not in the Zhiting Pavilion, but on the shore, talking and laughing, looking very harmonious and cheerful from a distance.
When Liu Ruoxi approached, Su Qingnuan came over and took Liu Ruoxi's hand affectionately.
"When I came out of the warm pavilion just now, I wanted to greet you, and I was as fascinated as you watched the play. My ninth sister and I had to come out first. After playing this for a while, I really missed you, so I sent the little girl to invite you. Su Qingnuan smiled and talked to Liu Ruoyuan, but only nodded lightly to Liu Ruoyuan, who came with her. Isn't it disturbing you to watch the play? Don't blame me! ”
"Where's the word?" Liu Ruoxi also smiled, although she tried her best to endure it, but being grabbed by Su Qingnuan's hand still made her feel very uncomfortable. Liu Ruoxi pretended to be unintentional. But he resolutely withdrew his hand, "I was also thinking about going out for a walk, just so you sent someone to call me." ”
"That's just right." Miss Wei Jiu came over. smiled sweetly, "Just say that a few of us are not lively." Third sister, I haven't seen you for two months since we last met. ”
Miss Wei Jiu also made a gesture that she missed Liu Ruoxi very much and was very intimate with Liu Ruoxi.
Whether it is Su Qingnuan or Miss Wei Jiu, their attitude towards Liu Ruoyuan is a little light, not only very different from their attitude towards Liu Ruoyuan, but also very different from their attitude towards Liu Ruoyuan in the past.
At this time, Miss Wei Wu and Miss Wei Liu also came over, and everyone saw each other again. Miss Wei Wu deliberately glanced at Liu Ruoyuan a few times, and her eyes showed some disdain and schadenfreude.
Liu Ruoxi sees everything in her eyes, Wei Jiu girl is delicate and cute, Su Qingnuan is delicate and intelligent, at first glance they are two different types of girls, but in some ways these two people are very similar, they are both extremely shrewd and sophisticated people.
"Big sister's phoenix eyes are familiar tight," Fifth Miss Wei pointed to the phoenix hairpin on Liu Ruoyuan's head and smiled, "It seems that I saw the big sister wear it once a year ago, and this autumn in the palace, the big sister seems to wear this." If I'm not mistaken, it should be the most popular style in the capital the year before last. ”
Liu Ruoyuan's face was slightly red.
"The fifth sister is very careful, only staring at these. I don't care, it's all the girls around me. People like us are naturally no better than those merchants, who can only see gold and silver in their eyes, and the stench of copper on their bodies. Liu Ruoyuan said, her tone slightly sharp.
Wei Wu's family is a side branch of Uncle Dingyuan, and now there is no one in the family to be an official, except for Uncle Dingyuan's help, they make a living by operating some shops. Liu Ruoyuan's words suddenly touched on the sore spot of Miss Wei, and Miss Wei's face suddenly turned red, and she was about to ridicule her.
"What were you playing just now, it was very lively." Liu Ruoxi didn't want to see Liu Ruoyuan or Wei Wu, but she didn't want the two of them to quarrel and ridicule each other now, so she was busy diverting the topic.
"It's this Tingbu, the ninth sister said that it's fun, I've seen the little girl at home play something similar, and I want to play there." Su Qingnuan replied with a smile.
"Yes, third sister, you are here, just so everyone is playing together." Miss Wei Jiu also said with a smile.
Miss Wei Wu didn't have anything to say at this time, so she had to endure her anger for the time being, thinking that she would find a chance to find a way back to the field for a while.
Everyone laughed and walked a few steps forward, Su Qingnuan and Wei Jiu explained to Liu Ruoxi how to play this Tingbu, it was easy to say, but they just jumped over one by one.
"We all skipped just now." Miss Wei Jiu said, "Now it's your turn to be the third sister." ”
"There is no one else here, just a few sisters, and we don't have to learn from those small families. The third sister must understand that only a great hero can be true to himself, and he is a true celebrity and a self-......"
Su Qingnuan and Wei Jiu both said that they wanted to dance and play, just like ordinary girls playing with checketes. Liu Ruoxi remembered that she had just looked at them from a distance, and they really looked like they were dancing.
Listen to what Su Qingnuan and Miss Wei Jiu said. Liu Ruoyuan was a little eager to try. But this time Liu Ruoyuan learned to be obedient, and did not rush forward, but turned her face to look at Liu Ruoyuan's face.
Liu Ruoyuan is really a little scared of Liu Ruoyuan.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to." Liu Ruoxi smiled. It's not that she doesn't like to play, and a step doesn't seem a big deal to her. But the people around her are not right, and Liu Ruoxi has no intention of playing with them.
Liu Ruoyuan, Liu Ruojuan and the eldest sister saw that Liu Ruoxi refused, so they didn't step forward, Liu Ruoshan wanted to play, but she refused to come forward. Liu Ruoshan wasn't afraid of Liu Ruoshan anything, but she listened to Mrs. Liu San's orders, and she herself was very convinced of Liu Ruoxi. Whenever you go out, you will look forward to Liu Ruoxi.
Su Qingnuan and Wei Jiu girls blindly persuaded Liu Ruoxi, but at the same time, Wei Wu girls said that it was not fun to jump one by one like just now, and it was more fun to skip two at a time. Everyone hugged the ground and walked up, and when the fifth girl Wei grew up, she jumped over first, and sure enough, her body was light. The crowd watching couldn't help but admire.
Su Qingnuan and Wei Jiu followed, but they only jumped a little, and they all laughed, and everyone stood on top of Ting Bu one after another. The laughter was endless.
At this moment, I heard footsteps behind the bushes nearby, and the sound of men talking. At this time, I can walk freely in the back garden, and I can still talk loudly like this. Naturally, he is the master of the Yongjing Palace. Several girls on Tingbu suddenly stopped talking, and they didn't know who screamed first, as if they were unsteady on their feet. Liu Ruoxi heard the sound of someone falling into the water, and then Liu Ruoxi felt that someone had slammed into her, and she suddenly couldn't stand steadily, and got down from Tingbu with one foot and stepped into the water.
Fortunately, Liu Ruoxi walked up to the back, not far from the shore, so the water here was not deep, but before her shoes passed, the corners of her skirt were immediately wet.
At this time, it was already winter, and there was already a thin layer of ice on the lake in the Yongjing Palace, which could not withstand people stepping on it at all, but this ice water was cold to the bone.
Next to her, Liu Ruoshan also followed Liu Ruoshan into the ice water, and the two hurriedly walked ashore hand in hand. At this time, Liu Ruoxi noticed the others.
Miss Wei Wu and Miss Wei Liu both fell into the water, and it seemed that they still fell, their skirts were a little wet, and their hair was slightly scattered, and they seemed to be frightened. Miss Wei Jiu screamed the loudest, but only the corners of her skirt were slightly wet, and then there was Su Qingnuan, which was similar to Miss Wei Jiu's situation.
Liu Ruoyuan and Liu Ruojuan were both wet/shoes, and the corners of their skirts were also wet/, but the eldest sister walked the slowest and did not fall into the water.
All the girls who followed and waited hurriedly stepped forward, and after a while, several girls arrived on the shore. Everyone was wet/Some of their clothes were wet, and when the north wind blew, they suddenly felt extremely cold.
You have to find a place to change your clothes and shoes as soon as possible, otherwise it is not a trivial matter to get caught in the cold. Liu Ruoxi was thinking like this, when she saw a little girl running quickly from the bushes, holding a dark fox fur in her hand.
There was such a mess just now, Liu Ruoxi didn't pay attention, and the man who walked to the back of the bushes seemed to notice that there were female dependents here, so he avoided it behind the bushes for the time being. Looking at the style of the big man, it is obviously worn by a man. I don't know who was behind the bushes, but I saw them wet/wet/their clothes, so I sent this big coat over.
The little girl came over, holding the big crush in both hands, and met Su Qingnuan. The little girl said something, and at this time, there was a commotion around, and Liu Ruoxi didn't hear it clearly.
“…… The big one sent by my brother," Su Qingnuan turned around, and when she saw Liu Ruoxi, she pointed to the little girl, as if she was signaling the little girl to give the big girl to Liu Ruoxi.
The little girl hurriedly stepped forward and handed it to Liu Ruoxi with a big coat.
"No need." Liu Ruoxi waved her hand and refused, "I also bothered the seventh sister to find a room, and everyone changed their clothes." ”
When the little girl saw Liu Ruoxi's refusal, she was a little stunned, and turned her face back to look at Su Qingnuan.
A pair of slender little hands stretched out at this time, and without waiting for the little girl and everyone to react, they took the big and draped it on their bodies.
Two blushes appeared on Miss Wei Liu's pale face, her teeth seemed to tremble a little, and she lowered her eyes slightly, wrapped tightly in the big curtain.
"Exactly, exactly, everyone come with me to ......" After a moment of silence, Su Qingnuan said, while leading everyone to the side.
Liu Ruoxi was surrounded by a few girls and walked forward, and couldn't help but look at the Wei Liu girl in front of her a few more times. Unexpectedly, Miss Wei Liu looked honest, weak and slender, but she was so resolute and neat.
Just now in the warm pavilion, Su Shi chatted with Mrs. Dingyuanbo, and once said that today, the prince Rong Chengyi and the second master of the palace, Rong Chengxiang, both went to the Great Xiangguo Temple to kneel and kneel, and they could not come back until the evening, and the old prince was called to the palace to discuss matters.
