The rain poured down, and the sky and the earth were white. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xiangyue stood under the cloister, watching the trees in the yard washed by the rain, shivering uncontrollably, the raindrops the size of beans, blown by the wind, smashed on her from time to time, splashing goosebumps, she shrunk her shoulders, leaned under the eaves, turned back and said to the little girl behind her who was bowing her head to arrange the umbrella, "Good guy, I haven't seen such a heavy rain this year, when I went to that yard in the morning, it was only cloudy and not yet it fell, and it fell so big in a blink of an eye, if I didn't run fast, I would have been photographed as a soup chicken." ”

"But no, I heard my father and mother who farmed in the countryside say that this kind of rain will fall in the spring, and it will be more expensive than oil, but at this time, the crops that have already set ears will be pat down in the field by the rain, and there will be no way to harvest it, and the past two years, the year has not been very good."

"It's true, it's not easy for the croppers, all year round, just look forward to this little harvest, or how to say, 'Who knows that the food on the plate, the grains are hard'."

"Sister Xiangyue is really knowledgeable, I have heard Young Master Yuan read these two sentences before." The little girl flattered.

Xiangyue said with a smile, "I can't recognize a basket of big characters, what kind of knowledge do I have?" By the way, this day, Young Master Yuan didn't go to school, what are you doing here, I just went in to say hello to my aunt, and she is still worried about it. ”

The little girl pursed her lips and said with a non-shaven face, "Sister will know if she goes into the house by herself." ”

Xiangyue looked at the little girl's appearance, felt strange, and thought that this Songbai Hall was also a bit excessive, how could a little girl also speak in this tone, and she wanted to talk to Ruyan when she turned around, this yard has to be well managed, and it can't be so unruly. While thinking, he walked to the main house, and faintly heard the sound of "ding ding ding" from inside, accompanied by laughter and applause, "What is this doing?" ”

Xiangyue came in with a curtain, and saw that in the middle of the main house, there was a porcelain vase more than a foot high painted insects and birds on the white ground, and a few chopsticks were scattered around. Brother Ying and another little girl stood to the side and watched with a blank face.

"You are too bold, if the housekeeper sees it and reaches the ears of the eldest lady, you will be beaten." Xiangyue jumped to her feet in fright, "What if the bottle is broken?" What if someone asks? ”

Shi Yuan was ready to throw, but when he heard Xiangyue ask, he stood up with a smile, "What are you afraid of, there are so many useless bottles and cans in this room, what if one is broken?" No one can tell. It's hard to take a day off, good sister, you just let me play for a while, loose and loose. ”

Ruyan also said, "Such a heavy rain, the idle person will come here, and no one will come on a serious day!" ”

Xiangyue had a cold face, turned around and commanded Brother Ying and the two of them, "You guys quickly put away all the things, where they come from, where they go!" ”

Brother Ying and the little girl hurriedly came over to pack up their things.

Shi Yuan pouted, "Sister is too careful." ”

Xiangyue coaxed him, "Little ancestor, you stop and stop, how many eyes are staring at you, staring at the front yard, when you have a family one day, how many do you want to play, why bother to hand over the handle to others at this time." ”

Shi Yuan sullenly handed a pair of chopsticks in his hand to Brother Ying, "I know, I'm tired, lie down for a while." As he spoke, he turned around and went back to the bedroom, muttering in his mouth, not afraid of being heard, "I finally escaped the nagging Tai Sui, and there was a steward Yaksha." ”

Xiangyue heard it clearly, and she didn't dare to answer, but just stared at her angrily.

Ruyan's face sneered, "In order to make him happy, it's really hard to study lately......"

Xiangyue sighed, "You, sooner or later, you will have to break into a catastrophe." Come here, I have something to discuss with you. ”

Ruyan walked up to Xiangyue, "What's the matter?" ”

"Go over there."

Xiangyue pulled Ruyan to sit on the bed in the ear room, and called Brother Ying, "You are standing at the door, someone is coming, tell me." ”

Brother Ying nodded, thinking to himself, isn't it just letting the wind out, "Understood." ”

"Yesterday, you took Young Master Yuan over to say goodbye, but did you go to your aunt's bedroom?"

Ruyan tilted her head and thought about it, "Well, I went, Ruyu asked me to go and see the painting, and I came out after reading it, what's wrong?" ”

"Did you see the paintings?"

"Well, I saw it, put it next to the embroidery case, what autumn travel map, I can't understand it, what's wrong?"

"You didn't touch it?"

"No, I didn't even touch it, so I followed Ruyu and took a look, and then came out."

"Who's in front of you?"

"No one."

"That's weird." Xiangyue leaned back on the table, staring at the cup thoughtfully.

Ruyan shook her arm, "What's the matter, I'm half-talking, what's going on with my aunt?" ”

Xiangyue glanced up at her, "I don't think it has anything to do with you, I'll tell you first, it's good if you know it yourself." The painting you looked at yesterday is gone. ”

"Gone?"

"Yes, it's gone."

"Why is it gone?"

"It's just gone."

Ruyan tilted her head and looked at Xiangyue, "This...... What do you mean? ”

Xiangyue spread her hands out, "It means that the painting is gone." ”

"That'...... Auntie, what kind of embroidered screen is she shining? ”

"What embroidery? Then there is no way to embroider, and Longxiangyuan is about to turn the sky upside down. The little girls have even looked for the cracks in the stones in the garden, and there is not even a shadow. One by one, they cried anxiously, but fortunately, the eldest lady didn't know yet, what Xiangyun meant, if you know Xin'er, hurry up and help find it, otherwise, will there be a good life over there in the future? ”

Ruyan was stunned, and suddenly pointed to the sky, "Good sister, although I like to joke, but I really don't know about this painting." The sky is above, if I steal my aunt's painting, I will not die well, and I will have boils all over my body, and I will not be able to die completely. ”

Xiangyue took her hand, "I know it's not you, just ask, go to doubt." You say, it's a copy, it's worthless, who's going to steal it?" ”

"It can't be that the wind is blowing away." ”

"Nonsense, it was so hot last night, how could there be a trace of wind, besides, everyone was in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, and such a big piece of paper flew out of the window, how could it not be seen."

"How's that going?"

"If you don't find it before dinner, go and talk to the eldest lady."

Ruyan slapped the table, "That's not possible, the eldest lady can't take advantage of this opportunity...... Xiangyue, you know ......"

Xiangyue hugged her knees and said with a sad face, "Of course I know, I know better than you!" ”

Brother Ying, who was standing at the door, listened to the conversation between the two people clearly, she lowered her head and thought for a long time, and finally made up her mind, turned around and came in, "Two sisters, I may know where this painting went." ”

Xiangyue stared at her fiercely.

Ruyan asked strangely, "How do you know, you didn't go to Longxiang Garden last night to ask for peace, and you have been studying with Young Master Yuan at night, haven't you?" ”

"I didn't say I knew, I said I probably knew, I ...... Sister, don't rush me, I'll tell you as soon as I have news, give me some time, I, I'll go see Young Master Yuan first. ”

Xiangyue lowered her head and thought for a while, "Hurry up, if there is any news, don't forget to inform me." ”
