Chapter Twenty-Three: Encounter Again

There were three people standing in the front hall, a middle-aged man with a face, who was estimated to be Master Yu who had never met before, and two people who turned out to be Mrs. Yan and Yan Xinghui, whom they had met some time ago. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Mrs. Yu greeted them, and Mrs. Yan's sharp eyes glanced at Duanyue, who was standing there in a daze, and hurriedly said goodbye, and Lord Yu also reacted quickly.

"I'll take the county lord to the mansion to have a look." Mrs. Yu said gently. She nodded slightly at the two of them and said goodbye, and walked to the back residence with Duanyue.

Duanyue couldn't help but look back at Yan Xinghui who was standing quietly on the side, and she couldn't help but have doubts in her heart. It is said that Mrs. Yan doesn't want to see his little son, whether it is in the teahouse or in the mansion, why does Mrs. Yan always take him?

Yan Xinghui stood boredly in the house of the two, listening to them discuss boring and tedious things, and he felt a trace of nonexistent gaze all the time surrounding him. He searched by his senses, only to see Mrs. Yu holding a smirking girl, he knew her, wasn't she the girl who was plagiarizing in the teahouse.

The two looked at each other, Duanyue looked at his calm eyes and was stunned, and before he could move away, he saw him make a naughty grimace at himself, which made Duanyue laugh out loud, and returned with a grimace with his free other hand.

When Mrs. Yu heard her voice, she lowered her head suspiciously. "What's wrong?"

Duanyue immediately put away her naughty grimace, but she still couldn't cover the slight rise in the corners of her mouth. She shook her head at Mrs. Yu and signaled that it was nothing. But he couldn't help but look back, and just happened to meet Yan Xinghui with a new grimace, which made Duanyue hide his face and giggle lightly.

Mandarin Yuan didn't expect Duanyue to come, so he simply combed his two braids. When he opened it, he saw Duanyue rushing over with a smile, only to feel that his appearance was uncomfortable, and his cheeks blushed with shame. Duanyue didn't care about these details, she held the mandarin duck's braid with her playful hands, and couldn't help boasting.

"Wow! Mandarin ducks have really long hair! She brushed her pigtails hanging from her temples and smiled embarrassedly. When I was a child, I twisted my hair while my parents didn't pay attention, and later I was scolded a lot! During that time, there was no way, and my father thought of a way to dress me in boy's clothes, which was not very weird. ”

She compared the long buttock-length hair of the mandarin duck and her shoulder-length hair, revealing envy.

The servants had already brought up the hot dishes, and the round table was full, and they didn't know where to put the rice bowls. Mandarin duck swallowed a mouthful of saliva quietly, she forced herself to look away from the food, and asked Madame softly. "Won't Daddy eat with us?"

"Your father and Mrs. Yan have something to discuss, so we won't wait for him." With that, he took the rice from the maid and handed it to the two of them. "But you have to eat more to grow your body."

Duanyue nodded happily, her smiling face was relative to the mandarin duck, and she praised it without embellishment. "The food at Mrs. Yu's house is better than that of Murong Mansion!"

The maid behind Mrs. Yu smiled and covered her face again and again. "What did the county lord say? The slave maid has relatives who are studying in General Murong's mansion, and I heard that a plate of fried eggplant can only be made with a dozen old hens. ”

Mrs. Yu glanced at her reproachfully, and the maid hurriedly silenced her and didn't dare to say more. "It's too talkative!" She grabbed a braised eggplant with chopsticks and wanted to hand it to Duanyue, but then she thought of what the maid had just said, so she had to put it back in her bowl. "Murong Mansion is naturally different from us." She carefully found a spring roll, put it in Duanyue's bowl, and put another one in the mandarin duck bowl.

"It's different. When I was in Murong Mansion, I ate a large table of dishes by myself, but I was comfortable in the mansion and could eat with a table of people. She opened her mouth, took a bite of the spring roll, and continued vaguely. No one in the house will give me food! ”

Mrs. Yu felt sorry that the child was always lonely, and today she went to Murong Mansion to teach the fourth day of Duanyue, during which she did not see anyone else visit except for Cuiguo, I was afraid that she would suffocate the child.

With a short sigh of pity, he gave her a few more dishes. This can cause the mandarin ducks to be unhappy.

"My mother really likes Xiaoyue, and the first chopsticks must be clipped!" The little girl pouted her mouth high, and if anyone had an oil bottle, she could hang it up and ensure that it would not fall.

"It's all there." Mrs. Yu's face was embarrassed for a while, and she immediately made up for the mandarin duck's share.

After drinking and eating, Mrs. Yu helped the mandarin duck comb her hair in a bun. Duanyue leaned to the side and watched very intently. Because her mother is a Uighur, she can't comb the hair of the Han people, and Duanyue has been waiting for her hair to grow for a long time because of her stubbornness, so she has never enjoyed the experience of being tied by her mother.

Seeing her so curious, the mandarin duck said with shame. "You always look at me like this, are you afraid that I will run?"

"I can't get tired of looking at the face of the mandarin duck." I don't know who I learned it from, but the cheeks of the mandarin duck were red, and he scolded delicately, "Little Deng's apprentice!" ”

The cute and shy double-ring bun, hanging with light blue tassels, shows that the mandarin ducks are delicate and cute. Mrs. Yu falsely pushed the two of them. "Mandarin Yuan, you take the county lord to the mansion for a walk, don't neglect the guests!"

These two little girls have been looking forward to going out to play for a long time, and they don't know whether Mrs. Yu is intentionally or unintentionally creating opportunities. The mandarin duck led Duanyue and ran out.

"Just had a meal! Run slower! "It's like going crazy when two girls are together! Mrs. Yu sighed to herself and shook her head. Let them go.

After arriving at his own territory, the mandarin duck became much more cheerful. Along the way, I heard her chattering, first talking about the year and month of the tree and who planted it, then talking about the meaning of whose couplet the pavilion came from, and then why the lake was called this name. Duanyue pricked up her ears and felt tired when she listened, but the mandarin duck's energy only increased.

"Let's go for a walk by the lake, you're not too tired." Duanyue pointed to a stone table with two stone benches by the lake, just under a willow tree. Although the willow branches are bare in this season, they can only break off the branches and beat people, but standing by the lake, there is a feeling of "withered willow cables, and the waves are tired of the Baihua Bridge".

Mandarin duck has no objections, she is like a guide in front of her, guiding Duanyue.

"Mandarin Duck, I'm going to ask you, have those four people ever harassed you again?" Duanyue asked kindly.

The mandarin duck shook his head and smiled. "You have your authority, how can anyone dare to bully me." She took Duanyue's arm, and her tone was cheerful like a flying magpie. "They are also soft and hard-nosed people, if there are adults here, they always show an intimate appearance with me, and now that you have warned them, I don't think they dare to come."

I still remember that period of time, which was the darkest time for mandarin ducks. The friend became a stranger overnight, constantly bullying physically and mentally, but the mandarin duck couldn't tell his mother. She was afraid that her mother would be worried, and she was afraid that her mother would also poke at the sore spot because of this.

Since the life after meeting Duanyue, Mandarin Duck has felt unprecedented joy. Duanyue never bullied her with her own identity, and she didn't have the appearance of a county lord. After the teahouse incident, she didn't dare to get along with Duanyue because of her inferiority complex, but not only did she not care, but she also told herself the secret. With such sincere fellowship, how dare the mandarin ducks live up to it.

She held Duanyue's hand and involuntarily increased a little force, for fear that Duanyue would leave.

Yan Xinghui walked around alone, made a turn in the path, and just collided with the two. Seeing him, the mandarin duck hesitated slightly, and Duanyue was already greeting generously.

"Yan San Gongzi!"

Yan Xinghui hurriedly whispered to Duanyue. "I've seen the Lord of Shi'an." His official title caused Duanyue to laugh herself.

She looked Yan Xinghui up and down, and when she saw it up close today, she found that Yan Xinghui's appearance was soft and weak, not so much the son of a rich family, but actually more like a scholar. I don't know where the momentum came from that day to scare those girls away.

Duanyue cleared her throat and thanked him kindly. "That day, thanks to Yan Sangongzi's rescue, you were almost wronged."

Yan Xinghui was very at a loss by Duanyue's thanks, and he had also heard people say that this Shi'an County Lord was a person with a strange temper, and he didn't have a good look at anyone. Seeing her gentle personality today, I suddenly doubted whether what outsiders said was true or false.

"The county lord doesn't need to thank you, those four people bullied the two of you, and no one can stand it." The polite response made the atmosphere awkward all of a sudden. Duanyue didn't know what to say again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was cold, the mandarin duck hurriedly opened his mouth and said haha. Yan Xinghui also helped her that day, so she also thanked her. "Yan Sangongzi is righteous, thank you that day." She is the opposite of Duanyue's frank and atmospheric appearance, revealing the shyness of a little woman.

Yan Xinghui only felt that his head was big, and the two thanked him one after another, so that he had to say both sides in one sentence. He smiled lightly, as if he had the feeling of smiling but not smiling. "There's nothing to worry about." I thought I would be more comfortable slipping away from those two boring people, but I didn't expect to meet these two girls as soon as I came out.

He is the worst at dealing with girls, and he doesn't talk more than half a sentence. Because of these two girls, one is the lord of Shi'an, and the other is the only daughter of Yu Zhongshu. Yan Xinghui struggled for a while and said to the two. "I won't bother the two of you, I'll go first, and the county lord Miss Yu will talk slowly."

"Don't!" Duanyue hurriedly stopped Yan Xinghui, who was leaving. She grimaced at Yan Xinghui and asked playfully. "Where can you go back now? Otherwise, take a walk with us, and it just so happens that Mandarin Mandarin can be a guide. ”

"It's ......," he said, grimacing. Still don't talk about the two of you. ”

"This is the first time Yan Sangongzi has come, and he can't be lazy." Mandarin Duck followed Duanyue's words and also kept Yan Xinghui. It is true that there is no good thank you for the teahouse, and now it is in the name of the host, so it is natural to treat the guests well.

How good is that? Beads of sweat oozed from Yan Xing's forehead, he was really trying his best now, and he didn't know what to do.

"Star Return!" Mrs. Yan shouted sharply. A distraction, this son of a scumbag doesn't know where to go, and he loses face in front of the book.

Yan Xinghui turned around timidly, seeing his father's angry face, as if he had already known what was going to happen in the next second. He hurriedly said apologetically to the two. "I've got something to do first, so I'm leaving."
