Chapter 64: Torn
The time flickered to the end of July, and Tanzhou was hot and rainy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lan Sheng's letter to his uncle had been sent for several days, but there had been no reply, and we waited anxiously and sadly for a reply.
A few days ago, Liang Gongzi came to bid me farewell, saying that he was going back to Qiantang. When I left, I was also given a folding fan with green jade, the fan surface is a pear blossom outlined in light ink, and a poem was inscribed on the reverse side: "Bright and quiet like a cage moon / fragrant cold is not chasing the wind / peach blossoms shine on the ground / finally being laughed demon red /".
I looked at the lustrous jade and thought that this folding fan must be a valuable item. He had helped me a long time ago, and I haven't thanked him properly. At present, this folding fan naturally cannot be collected.
But I couldn't stop his enthusiasm, so I had to take it. After taking it, I felt that it was very inappropriate, so I thought that it would be better to return the gift with a more valuable item.
was distressed, he spoke: "I saw Zhu Gongzi's folding fan with 'Shumei Tu' painted in Changle Building that day, which is very good, I wonder if Zhu Gongzi can give it to me?" ”
I was stunned, it turned out that he was thinking about the folding fan. Although my folding fan is painted with 'Shumei Tu', it is not as good as his green jade folding fan. He asked me directly, why did he give me this precious folding fan? Is he afraid that I won't be able to give up that folding fan?
I thought about it and felt that the mind of the literati was sometimes like this, willing to give everything they had in exchange for what they loved.
I have always carried the folding fan with the painting "Shumei Tu", which was originally intended to be used to drive away mosquitoes and fan the breeze, but now that he has my green jade folding fan, there is nothing wrong with giving him that folding fan.
So he gave him the folding fan.
Before leaving, he beckoned me to go to Changle Lou often to listen to the opera in the future, and there would always be a seat for me.
I thanked him, and Lehehe agreed.
During the day, I went to the school with Lan Sheng to listen to lectures, and in the evening, I had a tryst with him. Zhao Yuan doesn't know what he's been doing these days, and he's no longer sticking to me like before. I was very happy to enjoy the small world of two people with Lan Sheng.
On July 30, the College was closed. I wanted to go out with Lan Sheng, but early in the morning, Master handed me a stack of paper full of words and told me to copy it down.
I had no choice but to cancel my original plan and instead copy things for Master in my room.
was immersed in writing, Zhao Yuan suddenly came in. He didn't knock on the door, which startled me. Looking at his face again, it was even more inexplicable.
I looked at him quizzically.
He walked straight to the table, and with a "tom", he placed a flask on the table and took two teacups together.
I wondered, took the things on the table, and asked him, "What are you doing here?" ”
He sat down in front of me, stared at me and said, "Please drink." ”
I laughed dryly and said, "I don't drink." Then he pointed to the things on the table and said, "Look, I'm going to help Master copy things." ”
He didn't buy it, and said: "It's rare for me to ask you to accompany me for a drink, but you refused like this, isn't it too unrighteous, are we still friends?" ”
I laughed, spread my hands, and said, "Will my friends mess around?" ”
"I'm just messing around!" He slammed the table.
I was shocked and thought to myself, I was originally joking with him, why did he take it seriously? Still so angry. Zhao Yuan is generally not like this.
I smiled and said gently, "Zhao Yuan, what's wrong with you?" After a pause, he asked him again, "Who made you angry?" Are you having a sad encounter? ”
He lifted the paper from the spout of the flask, silently poured two teacups of wine, picked up one, and said, "Let's talk about it when I dry this wine." ”
I had no choice but to pick up the glass of wine, put it to my lips and take a sip.
He frowned at me and said, "You're too upset." ”
I waved my hand and said, "I really don't know how to drink, and taking a sip of power is 'sacrificing my life to accompany a gentleman'." If you have anything to say, just say it. ”
He looked at me fixedly, swallowed a glass of wine, then filled it, drank it again, then filled it again, and swallowed it all.
I stared blankly, thinking, what kind of magic wind is he in?
After he finished drinking, his eyes were a little red, and he looked at me and said, "Zhu Wan, did you lie to me about something?" ”
I was stunned and asked him, "Why do you say that?" ”
He said, "I've been in love with you for a long time, do you know? ”
I was so shocked that I couldn't say a word, just blinking my eyes desperately.
Zhao Yuan is really obsessed, right? How could he say something like that? How could such a rough man be a hidden broken sleeve?
After a while, I said, "But I'm just like you...... It's a man. ”
"No, you're not a man, you're a woman." He's serious.
I was surprised and weak-hearted, so I said "haha" twice and said, "What are you kidding?" You're not going to be drunk, are you? ”
There was no smile on his face and he said, "No, I'm sober." You're a woman. ”
How did he suddenly become so determined on this issue? He had been suspicious before, but never before had he been so serious and determined as he was today.
Angry and frightened, I said to him, "Go out and talk to me when you're really sober." ”
He took the glass of wine in front of me, shook it slightly, and said, "I know your real name, you are not 'Zhu Wan', you are the second lady of the Zhu family - 'Zhu Shuzhen'." ”
The palms of my curled hands sweated slightly, and I denied in my mouth: "I'm not 'Zhu Shuzhen', I'm 'Zhu Wan'." ”
He chuckled and said, "How long do you want to deny this?" I let others find out, in Qiantang, who is the identity I can't find? ”
I glared at him and said angrily, "Why are you checking my identity? ”
He took a sip of wine and said, "Actually, before, I was just suspicious of you, but later, I saw that you were so close to the man surnamed Lan. On the day of Qixi Festival, you went out with him...... I saw you and him cuddle together by the riverbank. At that time, I was somewhat convinced that you were a woman, and I sent someone to investigate, and sure enough, you were really a woman. ”
I listened silently, and suddenly felt a chill run down my spine. After a pause, I said, "What do you want to do?" What's the use of knowing my identity? ”
He looked at me and said, "Don't you remember?" ”
"What?" I asked.
"I wanted to buy you for a thousand dollars, just to meet you. But in the end, you gave it to someone else. He said.
I suddenly remembered that in my last life, Yue Ying had told me about this, could he be the "Lin'an Rich Merchant" in Yue Ying's mouth?
Is he fighting by saying this?
After thinking about it, I said, "It's just a painting, if Zhao Gongzi doesn't mind, I can give you another one." ”
He suddenly smiled and said to me, "Isn't it very fateful that we can meet here today?" ”
