Chapter 66: The Mei Family's Strange Affair

The canal water in June was not too cold, but the unprepared entry into the water still made Qiu Yebai shiver at the moment of entering the water, and she immediately forcibly urged some dantian internal force to look at the water to find that shadow.

Although the water of this canal is clear, it affects the sight because of the moss and aquatic plants growing at the bottom of the water, and Autumn Leaf Bai found in the process of searching that the water of this canal is unusually deep, and she can't see the bottom of the water.

But fortunately, Mei Xiangzi entered the water for a short time, she held her breath, and after swimming for a while, she could already vaguely see a pink shadow of lotus root.

Autumn leaves immediately swam over, only to find that Mei Xiangzi seemed to have fainted, the delicate and pink skin in the water became pale, but he was still dragging the flower basket in his hand, the petals floated out of the flower basket, floating up with the bubbles of the water, almost wrapping the plum Xiangzi in the middle, the girl's skirt fluttered in the water, making her whole person look like a flower scattered in the water after blooming, there is a calm and quiet beauty of ice,

Akiba Bai was stunned for a moment, and immediately swam over, reached out and went around Mei Xiangzi's neck from behind, clasped her chest, and swam up.

"Bang" The water waves parted, and Qiu Yebai wiped his face and found that there were several more boat maids who came down to save people in the water, and there were already many servants and maids on the shore, and there was a lot of noise.

It was still Mei Xiangzi's eldest girl who reacted the fastest, and when she saw that the water waves were scattered, and there was a pink robe on the surface of the water, she immediately screamed in surprise and jumped to her feet: "Miss, Miss is there, hurry, hurry!" ”

There was an uproar on the shore and underwater, many people jumped into the water one after another, and the second housekeeper also jumped into the water and swam towards the location of Qiu Yebai and Mei Xiangzi, and immediately shouted: "Quick, hurry up and save the eldest lady ashore!" ”

Seeing this, Autumn Leaves Bai couldn't help frowning slightly, there were many people, this plum Xiangzi's clothes were wet, the clothes were light and thin in summer, and they must be curvy, how could so many people see it.

She ignored the people who swam towards her, and swam to the nearest canopy boat with Mei Xiangzi in her arms, and the second housekeeper saw that Autumn Leaves had taken people away from them, and suddenly became anxious, and shouted: "Hey, what are you doing...... ”

When the word came to his mouth, he swallowed it back, just because Qiu Yebai swam to the side of the canopy boat at this time, she grabbed the eaves with one hand, and her posture was chic like a dragon out of the water, and she jumped and hugged Mei Xiangzi to leave the boat in an instant.

As soon as Qiu Yebai got on the boat, he immediately half-squatted on the side, helped Mei Xiangzi to lean on his lap, rested his fingertips under the tip of Mei Xiangzi's nose, saw that her breathing was intermittent, quite weak, frowned slightly, and immediately patted her back several times with force.

Mei Xiangzi was hit in the back, and immediately spit out a few mouthfuls of water: "Cough, cough, cough......." ”

Seeing Mei Xiangzi spit out water, her breathing seemed to be much smoother, so she looked at the boat lady who was standing stupidly on the side and said, "Go and get that coat for your young lady." ”

Akiba Bai carefully rested Mei Xiangzi on the boat, and calmly ordered the boat lady on the side.

The little boat lady looked at someone suddenly jumping up and didn't react, at this moment her eyes touched the beautiful face of the autumn leaves white with water droplets, and the young man spoke to herself before meeting again, and suddenly her face was slightly red, and then her eyes fell on the young man's arms, and suddenly saw her eldest lady's slender body line exposed, she was startled, and then nodded indiscriminately, and went to take the lily coat and cover it for Mei Xiangzi.

"Thank you...... Xie Gongzi! ”

While speaking, the second housekeeper had already climbed up in a wet wolf, looking at the eldest lady lying on the side of the boat covered with a lily coat and not moving, he immediately rushed over in a hurry, his fingertips trembled and probed down Mei Xiangzi's nose, instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered to himself: "Amitabha, fortunately, the eldest lady is fine!" ”

Only then did he think of Qiu Ye Bai who was standing on the side, and only then did he turn his head to look at Qiu Ye Bai, who was also wet but did not show wolf bΓ¨i, his eyes were a little complicated and dark, but then he immediately laughed, with a grateful look: "Thank you Master Qian for saving my eldest lady, the villain will definitely return to the eldest young master!" ”

Qiu Yebai twisted the hem of his soaked clothes, and said lightly without much care: "Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention that it's just a gesture, don't worry about it." ”

The butler smiled dryly while directing people to hurry up and let the boat dock: "My lord is really a bodhisattva. ”

Akiba Bai laughed softly and didn't make a sound.

She didn't expect that because she saved Mei Xiangzi, the Mei family would be merciful to her subordinates, not to mention that she saved Mei Xiangzi, it was indeed a habitual pity for the jade, and she didn't have any purpose.

When they arrived at the shore, there was a soft sedan chair waiting early, just waiting for their boat to pull aside, and immediately a servant woman and maid rushed up to carry Mei Xiangzi onto the soft sedan chair and left in a hurry.

Everyone surrounded Mei Xiangzi, the scene was a little chaotic, as soon as Mei Xiangzi left, everyone suddenly scattered, almost no one remembered that there was a wet rescuer on the boat, only a small guy hurriedly came up, handed a robe to the autumn leaves, and said a little nervously and respectfully: "The adults have worked hard, please change clothes with the villain, so as not to catch a cold." ”

Qiu Yebai knew at a glance that it was the second housekeeper who sent someone, although it was just a small house, but someone still remembered that she saved Mei Xiangzi, and secretly said in his heart that the people in this Mei Mansion were not completely brainless, so he nodded and followed him.

The little guy led her all the way to a small building nearby, and said with some apprehension: "This is the eldest young master's hidden stone pavilion, this is a convenient place for adults to change their clothes recently, and please take care of it first." ”

Qiu Yebai looked at the little guy's uncomfortable timid appearance, and knew that he was the kind of low-level guy who rarely saw outsiders, so he smiled and nodded: "It's okay, you go and prepare some hot water and get a shirt for me first." ”

Seeing that Qiu Yebai's attitude was not arrogant at all, the little guy even smiled at himself, first stunned, and then immediately nodded shyly: "Yes, the little one will go!" ”

After that, he forgot to salute, so he hurriedly turned around and ran out.

Autumn leaves saw that the little guy ran away, completely forgot to take her into the building first, a little funny and helpless, she turned to look at the attic, reached out and tried to push the door, and saw that the door was not locked, so she simply entered the door by herself.

The clothes on his body were wet and sticky, and although it was June, it was still a little cold when the wind blew.

This small building is indeed not big, the door is a room and a living room, the four walls of the flower hall are treasure play shelves, and the four or five long cases placed in the flower hall are full of all kinds of stones, some are exquisite, some are simple, there are ordinary bluestone, and there is also a look at the jade rough that is extremely valuable.

The other rooms were simply covered with stones, and the desks were full of stone chisel tools.

Qiu Yebai looked at the unfinished stone carvings on those stones, and wondered in her heart, this is probably the stone carving room of the eldest young master of the Mei family, seeing that there is almost no place to settle in the inner room except for the eight immortal chairs behind the carved table, she finally understands why the little guy looked so worried just now.

It's a workshop, not even a rest room.

Xiao Qi followed her and looked around, and said angrily: "Really, how did you find such a place!" ”

She had to go upstairs, and when she went upstairs, she found that there was a stone hiding room upstairs, but there were still some places where there were no stones to settle down.

The little guy came back soon, and although he had never seen the world, he was not stupid, and he and the other little guy were holding a basin of hot water and a set of clothes.

If he did bring in a bath bucket, there wouldn't even be a place to put it.

Qiu Yebai asked them to take all the things upstairs, refused their service, and only sent Xiao Qi to take them out to look at the door, she went upstairs by herself, and looked at the clothes, she couldn't help but sigh, it's really reckless today, although the material of this shirt is excellent, and the style is also elegant, but ...... It was noticeably larger than she was at least one size.

At first glance, this set of clothes is that the little guy is not enough to do things and is still not careful, and I don't know which master in their mansion it is, and I don't carefully check whether it is suitable and I got it for her.

Later, she will go to see the eldest young master of the Mei family, and her momentum will fall half of her momentum when she wears this dress, and she has made that arrogant appearance at the door of the Mei family before, originally planning to make the Mei family feel contemptuous, but she doesn't want to overdo it now.

Arrogance can make people underestimate the enemy, but it can suppress people on the face.

But now the appearance of such a wolf bèi will only make people despise and despise the enemy.

A wry smile appeared on her face a little helplessly, this is really self-inflicted, and she doesn't look at the ground!

But now that this is the case, she can't do it, so she has to deal with her mess with hot water first.

- Lao Tzu is Lao Tzu is lolo, and he wants to lie under the bed to see the dividing line of the princess Xiaobai on the kangβ€”β€”

Mei Mansion, Tianjiao Pavilion

This exquisite attic, which is full of flowers and full of Jiangnan charm, has lost its usual quietness at the moment, and from time to time there are servants and maids carrying hot water and decoction in and out.

Just because the master of Tianjiao Pavilion is lying in bed in a semi-coma at the moment, who doesn't know that the eldest lady is not only the only daughter of the lord and lady who has traveled, but also the most beloved sister of the Mei family, the eldest young master Mei, who is now the head of the Mei family.

In the garden outside the boudoir door, the second housekeeper didn't have time to change his wet clothes, so he stood behind a slender figure and didn't dare to come out, and said cautiously: "...... That's the way it is, young master, the slave didn't say a word. ”

The slender figure stood quietly, dressed in a robe with a dark brocade cloud pattern of azure after the rain, and a white jade and blue gold belt was tied around his waist to outline his broad shoulders and waist, and his back was quiet and elegant.

Mei Su was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked lightly, "Can you see Lord Qiu's skills clearly?" ”

The second housekeeper saw that his master didn't ask him about the young lady, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was the swing general, and he estimated whether his master suspected that the eldest lady fell into the water and the surname Qiu, so he thought about what he saw, and then said: "The slave can still see clearly in the water, and the swing always only pressed the eaves with one hand and jumped on the boat with one hand with the eldest lady and jumped on the boat easily. ”

There is a lot of resistance in the water, and the eldest lady is unconscious, and the unconscious person is extremely heavy, but that autumn leaf white not only hugged the eldest lady to the boat, but also has a free and elegant posture, relying on strength alone, ordinary people can't do it.

Mei Su didn't ask again, and he didn't know what he was thinking, the second housekeeper looked at his eldest young master standing with his back to him, neither speaking nor moving, and he didn't dare to move, just standing like this, shivering a little by the cold wind.

Just when he couldn't help but want to sneeze, Mei Su suddenly opened his mouth again: "You said before that Lord Qiu was arrogant and presumptuous outside the door?" ”

When the second housekeeper saw his young master asking like this, he couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, what is the matter with the eldest lady on weekdays, and the eldest young master is shushing and asking for warmth, why do you always ask around this surnamed Qiu today?

But he still said it again and again, and said angrily at the end: "As you expected, the surnamed Qiu couldn't bear to wait outside, so he treacherously moved the Queen Mother Lafayette out, so he immediately opened the door, but his attitude was arrogant, his words were vicious, and he didn't know how to restrain himself, let alone the relationship between us and the palace, he was clearly a brainless and arrogant person, so he didn't have to be afraid." ”

But this matter involves the eldest lady, and he still doesn't have the guts.

Mei Su, who was facing away from him, listened to him, rubbed the jade wrench on his thumb for a moment, and chuckled: "This person is a contradiction, so not careless and arrogant, but he still remembers to bring Xiangzi on the boat and cover Xiangzi with a robe." ”

The second housekeeper didn't quite understand what his master meant, so he stood with his head down, but he muttered disapprovingly in his heart, he didn't think it was contradictory at all, that Qiu Yebai was not only a brainless, but also a lustful one, and when he saw the eldest lady, he couldn't move his feet, and jumped down desperately to save the eldest lady, impulsive, lustful, and strong in martial arts, this kind of person is the easiest to use as a gunman.

"Is he in the Hidden Stone Pavilion at the moment?" Mei Su asked suddenly.

The second housekeeper didn't care that the master couldn't see it with his back to him, and nodded subconsciously: "Yes, there is no other suitable place to change clothes nearby." ”

He thought about it for a while, and said with some apprehension: "The slave is good at making claims, so he asked the people below to take a set of old clothes of the eldest young master and send him a ......." ”

Mei Su interrupted him lightly: "What you did is not wrong, after all, Qiu Yebai is an official of the imperial court, and he is indeed ordered to investigate the case, if he is allowed to save people here, but he has a reputation of being seriously ill and can't investigate the case, I'm afraid it will be our Mei family." ”

The second housekeeper was originally considered Mei Su's henchman, but he suddenly nodded and said, "Then the slave immediately asked people to cook ginger soup and invite the best doctor to go to the Hidden Stone Pavilion?" ”

If Akibabai can't investigate the case, then who will carry this black cauldron at that time?

So they can't let Akibashiro get sick here!

Mei Su bowed slightly: "Well, it seems that the eldest lady is fine, and there will be a while for her to wake up, so I will go to meet this Lord Qiu for a while, and thank him in person for saving his life." ”

Looking at Mei Su's back, the second housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "But...... At the moment he should be in the shower and changing clothes. ”

Gentleman...... I actually went to see an unrelated passer-by, instead of staying by the eldest lady's side as usual, is this a red rain?!

Mei Su didn't stop, and only said casually: "Lord Qiu is a martial artist, so I don't want to stick to these small sections." ”

The second housekeeper looked at the back of his master who was floating away, dumbfounded, and it took a long time to retract his chin, and his expression was a little complicated, and he turned his head to look at the exquisite Tianjiao attic.

I don't know why, this time the eldest lady fell into the water, which made him seem to feel something strange and strange, and also noticed some strange details that he had never noticed before.

Miss...... No, does the eldest young master really love the eldest lady as much as everyone thinks......

No one can guess the mind of the eldest young master.

And the eldest lady, why did she jump into the canal by herself, or in front of an outsider she saw for the first time?

Yes, he was very sure of the eldest lady, she must have jumped into the water by herself, and it was definitely not an accident.

……

Something strange is about to happen.

A cool breeze blew, and in the scorching June, the second housekeeper couldn't help but shiver.

"Haqiu!"

……

Let's say that in this hidden stone pavilion, Autumn Leaves Bai took off her clothes in a slippery manner, wiped her body with hot water, and prepared to change into this ill-fitting clothes after a while, and then let people get her a new set of well-fitting clothes after she didn't catch a cold and could see people.

Just because of this set of clothes, she is embarrassed to put on her body like this - how do you look like a second child who steals adult clothes.

Even if a woman is about the same height as a man, the difference in bone structure will make the man's clothes at least one size bigger, not to mention that the owner of this suit is obviously at least a head taller than himself!

Autumn leaves looked at the pants he had just put on with black lines, the crotch reached the middle of his thighs, and the trousers were pulled twice to barely show his feet, and his clothes were even looser.

And those shoes...... She glanced at the shoes and decided that she would wear her own wet shoes and not go out in a pair of slippers to make people laugh!

She was about to take off the silk middle garment, readjust her clothes and put them back on, when suddenly there was a very faint clicking sound in the air, and she suddenly put her clothes on her body, and without looking back, she swept her hand, and a basin of water instantly rolled behind her.

"Bang dang!"

Immediately behind her, there was a loud sound of a copper basin hitting the wall.

"Four less!" Downstairs, Xiao Qi heard the sound and was shocked, and immediately broke into the building and wanted to rush upstairs.

"Xiao Qi, stop, I'm fine." Qiu Ye immediately stopped Xiao Qi in a cold voice, and Xiao Qi suddenly remembered that his master had not finished changing his clothes, so he stood obediently in place, only glancing upstairs with some concern.

"Don't look at indecent things, don't you know?" Qiu Yebai didn't turn around, only tore off his coat and put it on neatly, then took his belt and tied a knot at his waist at random, and straightened his shirt again, before turning around, looking at the person standing not far behind him with cold eyes.

Behind her, the place that had been the treasure chest had now quietly moved a door, and a person stood silently in front of the door of the black hole.

It was a young man with a long body and a jade body, white skin and green sideburns, but it was a pity that the facial features were too plain at first glance, but only a little more, but found that his eyebrows were not bland, but light - this lightness was dyed out with the top Huimo Lake than the light hook, just like the famous ink painting scroll with evergreen ink, the corners of the eyes were light to the extreme, but just right to the extreme.

He just stood there, and he reminded people of the smoky rain and azure color in the south of the Yangtze River, verdant and indifferent, eyebrows and eyes, there is color everywhere, but everywhere is a scene.

A line of ink color into the water blue, covered with thousands of red dust.

"Master Mei." Autumn leaves quietly looked at the ink beauty in front of him for a moment, and opened his mouth indifferently but surely.

Is Jiangnan specialized in such wonderful people, or is this Mei family gathering the aura of Jiangnan, and these two brothers and sisters are contained in the aura of the water town and have been to Jiangnan, so she thinks that the latter is more likely.

"Lord Qiu, your eyes are really good." Mei Su looked at the young man in front of him, or rather, he felt that there was a young man in front of him, and he was still a beautiful young man who was not fully developed.

Of course, maybe it's because the other party's clothes are too ill-fitting to wear their own clothes, loose and drooping, making him more and more thin, well, and just now he caught a glimpse of the half snow-white back of this autumn adult, and the lines of his body seemed to be a little too graceful and silky.

Of course, it is also very pleasing to the eye, like a lotus with buds that has not yet opened.

Qiu Yebai looked at Mei Su and smiled, as if the quiet Jiangnan smoke and rain picture was alive, and the charm between the elegant eyebrows was simply impossible to take off his eyes.

This is a man who is completely different from the thick and peerless elegance of the beginning of a hundred miles.

It's a pity that in addition to wanting to sigh, she really can't lift her spirit to appreciate the beauty of ink and wash, because the more outstanding the other party, in addition to the more she sets off her wolf bèi at the moment, it still sets off her wolf bèi to the extreme!

's completely different aura made her original plan to play with the opponent she staged completely unplayed, and she completely fell behind!

"Young Master Mei, don't you think you should explain to Ben Qianza why you suddenly appeared here quietly?" Akiba Bai exhaled lightly, but still stabilized his expression and asked coldly.

If it weren't for the fact that she had opened the threshold of life and death, and now that the five senses and spiritual consciousness have jumped to a new level, I am afraid that I will not be able to hear the faint sound of the mechanism, if the other party breaks through her true body, I am afraid that there will be a murderous scene at this moment.

Mei Su keenly felt a sharp fluctuation in the air, he had been in business for many years, and he was no stranger to this kind of fluctuation, that was - killing intent.

He looked at the person in front of him quietly, was this Lord Qiu really angry?

But, why?

Because he bumped into him changing clothes, or was it because Akiba Bai was disgusted with other people's frivolous offenses?

Mei Su lowered her eyelashes slightly, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to personally confirm that the adult who saved my sister was safe and sound, so I took a shortcut, but I didn't want to disturb the adult." ”

Qiu Yebai looked at him, and a hint of sneering coldness flashed in his eyes: "Oh, yes, Ben Qianza still thought that Young Master Mei either owed a tutor, or just wanted to see what kind of person and temperament I was like under the emperor of the wolf bΓ¨i who came to find trouble?" ”

What a shortcut!

What does this Tibetan Stone Pavilion look like, will he, as the owner, not know, there is no place to stay downstairs, and he can only go upstairs to change clothes!

Mei Su was slightly stunned, she didn't expect that this young Qianzong, who had a face like a clear breeze and a bright moon, would make his words clear so directly, without any scruples, sharp as a sword out of the sheath, which was completely different from the twists and turns in the official palace on weekdays, and the hidden killing motives.

Even though the person in front of him was dressed in ill-fitting clothes and looked like a wolf, his momentum did not fall at all.

It's just that this person seems to be a little too composed.

"Whatever the adults say, it is, it's always Mei Su who doesn't think it through." Mei Su was not annoyed or angry, and smiled slightly, as if she was really apologetic.

It's just that he responded like this, but he took Qiu Yebai's question lightly, making people feel that if they didn't give up, it would be unreasonable.

Qiu Yebai paused, squinted his eyes and looked deeply at the man in the blue sky and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, but the other party didn't seem to be moved by her almost sharp eyes, only smiled indifferently.

The corners of her lips slowly hooked up a chuckle, and she didn't insist on asking any more, but said, "In the end, it is Young Master Mei, and his name is worthy of it." ”

In just a few words, her offensive was resolved, and the eldest young master of the Mei family was really as she expected, in addition to his outstanding appearance, his mind was not an ordinary person.

"Mei Su is just an ordinary businessman, and he doesn't dare to claim to be famous." Mei Su smiled slightly, and her eyes stopped on Qiu Yebai: "Fang Cai gave up my sister and fell into the water, Mei Su lost her sense of proportion, and let the people below mistakenly take the old clothes below to the adult, and ask the adult to forgive the sin, I will let people go and take a new set of clothes according to the adult's figure." ”

Qiu Ye Bai was stunned, she didn't expect that this shirt turned out to be Mei Su's, this feeling of wearing a strange man's clothes closely...... Belch...... It's really a little weird, and she immediately said kindly: "It's okay, Ben Qianza is waiting here." ”

Mei Su's gaze seemed to measure her figure, and she said casually: "Mei Su looks at the adults and is polite, and it is rare to see you with such a slender figure among the people of the Northland." ”

Qiu Yebai nodded, and said lightly: "Young Master Mei has a good eye, this Qianza's mother ancestor is a person from the south, and I also lived in Suzhou for a period of time in my early years, and your Wu Nong's soft language can also understand a little." ”

Mei Su smiled, her eyes seemed to be covered with a faint mist, which made it difficult to distinguish: "Yes, it seems that we are really fated, then I will make the decision to let the people below go to get a new set of clothes first, and my second brother is similar to the adult." ”

His gaze stopped at her throat, then nodded to her, and then went downstairs, carefully instructing the guards where to pick up their clothes.

As soon as Mei Su got downstairs, Qiu Yebai couldn't help but close his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and cursed in a low voice!

She's really stupid and nosy today!

Fortunately, she first removed her wet hair, wiped it briefly and tied it up.

Fortunately, she moved fast enough, and only let Mei Su see half of her shoulders, and didn't let him see the chest strap tied behind her back.

Fortunately, she coped with it properly, otherwise with a character with Mei Su's experience, I am afraid that she would have recognized her as a daughter!

Thinking of the seemingly bland conversation between Fang Cai and Mei Su, but every sentence was a hidden edge, the cold light in her eyes flashed slightly, this Mei family is really interesting.

First, my sister dived inexplicably, and then my brother, who loved my sister like my life, put down my sister who fell into the water to investigate the enemy.
