Chapter 25 XXV
twenty-five
Early the next morning, Chu Liuxiang woke up Ye Changsheng, who was reluctant to hum and chirp and didn't want to get up, and then washed and dressed up for breakfast. He's getting more and more comfortable doing this now, and he's no worse than those maids.
After breakfast, he took someone to find Shen Rushan, and usually at this time he would drink tea in the small pavilion in the middle of the lake.
At the same time, in the small pavilion, Shen Qing pestered her father early in the morning: "Daddy, daddy, promise me!" I'm going to marry Sheng Sheng! ”
Shen Rushan was too big, and scolded softly: "Don't mess around!" Didn't you say you liked your big brother Chu before, clamoring to marry him, why did you change your mind in just one night? ”
Shen Qing tilted his head and thought for a while, and said dissatisfiedly: "Yesterday was yesterday, today is today, it's different!" Besides, Brother Chu is so old, and he always doesn't come to see me, I don't like him anymore. I fell in love with Sheng Sheng at first sight! Daddy, you don't know he's so smart, he can do anything! Compared with him, Brother Chu is a vulgar thing, who can neither draw nor recite poetry! ”
What is this, Shen Rushan refused with a stiff face: "Dad is not allowed." That kid looks short-lived, ugly, and you die of this heart. ”
Hearing that he was so ruthless, Shen Qing stopped doing it: "I don't want it!" I just love Shengsheng! Sheng Sheng also taught me to write, play chess, and draw, and he could also read poetry! I just like him! ”
Shen Rushan was so noisy by her that her brain hurt, Qingqing was spoiled by him, and the noisy had to achieve the goal.
The two of them were facing each other, and Chu Liuxiang came over with Ye Changsheng. Today, Changsheng wore a yellow robe, which looked as pleasing as a chick from a distance.
Shen Qing saw him from afar, and his eyes lit up and he rushed out: "Shengsheng! You're here so early? ”
Ye Changsheng got up early, the whole person was still confused, breakfast was fed by Chu Liuxiang one bite at a time, and Shen Qing pounced on him and didn't stand firm, but fortunately, Chu Liuxiang took the person into his arms in time and didn't fall.
"Qingqing, Changsheng will play with you later, you let him rest." Chu Liuxiang was kind enough to persuade the little girl who was in a hurry.
Shen Qing looked at Ye Changsheng's eyes blankly focused, and asked Chu Liuxiang a little helplessly: "Brother Chu, why doesn't Shengsheng seem to know me?" ”
Speaking of this, Chu Liuxiang was also very helpless, he found that as long as he slept late at night and was called up in the morning, there was a blank period of nearly half an hour in between, Changsheng was in this state of ignorance, no one knew anyone, and no one cared about it, and the whole person looked like a wandering spirit. If someone takes the opportunity to pinch his face and rub his hands, he will not react at all, and he will do whatever he wants.
"Humph!" Shen Rushan's mood was even worse when he saw his daughter wandering around that kid, "Come to bother me early in the morning, Chu Liuxiang, you are really guts!" ”
Chu Liuxiang, who was inexplicably shot, touched his nose, "Brother Shen, you forgot that you asked me to come to you this morning last night." ”
Shen Rushan was dumbfounded, and thought about it for a long time, as if he was drunk yesterday. However, not only did he not apologize, but his tone became more gloomy, "Then why did you only come here now?" It's all three poles in the day! ”
Shen Qing glanced at her father with disgust, and dismantled the stage: "Dad, it's just sunrise." ”
Shen Rushan, who was slapped in the face, was congested, Chu Liuxiang was afraid that he would not answer any of his questions as soon as his temper came up today, so he hurriedly took Ye Changsheng over and sat down: "It's all mine, Brother Shen, don't be angry." ”
Hearing his apology, Shen Rushan, who had found the bottom of the steps, snorted coldly and sat down. Chu Liuxiang took the peach blossom cake on the table and stuffed it into Ye Changsheng's hand, "Eat some snacks." ”
Ye Changsheng obediently took a bite and chewed silently, and Shen Qing hurriedly ran to sit beside him.
"Brother Shen, have you ever heard of that place in Pingzhou?" Chu Liuxiang was relieved when he saw Ye Changsheng slowly eating snacks, so he asked the purpose of his visit.
Shen Rushan glanced at him, "Are you going, or are you going to go?" ”
"Naturally, it's Changsheng." Chu Liuxiang replied truthfully.
"I don't know." Shen Rushan replied coldly, "I haven't heard of this place. ”
"Sure enough, even you don't know ......" Chu Liuxiang frowned and muttered to herself.
They were talking here, and Ye Changsheng suddenly woke up over there, chewing the snack in his mouth and looking at a painting hanging on the pavilion and said in surprise: "Huh? Why is my painting here? ”
Hearing his voice, Chu Liuxiang smiled: "Awake?
Ye Changsheng nodded, and pointed with his hand, "That, isn't it my painting?" ”
Chu Liuxiang looked at the past, Shen Rushan has always been very fond of collecting calligraphy and paintings, and whenever he sees a good work outside, he will spend a lot of money to buy it, whether it is a great Confucian or a poor scholar, as long as it is written well, he is willing to ask for it. And because he can't handle his own calligraphy and painting, he has always been courteous to these people.
So it's really common for calligraphy and paintings to hang in this pavilion, Chu Liuxiang stared at the white plum picture for a long time, even though he is a martial arts person, he doesn't appreciate these literati elegant things, but he still has to admit that this painting is very expressive, and the painting is very good.
"I drew this, when I was thirteen." Ye Changsheng thought for a while, and then nodded definitely, "That's right, it's thirteen years old." At that time, it was snowing heavily in the capital, and the white plum tree in my yard bloomed overnight, and everyone said that it was an auspicious omen, and I liked it when I saw it, so I painted it. ”
"Really?" Chu Liuxiang was very surprised, he didn't expect him to have such talent.
Shen Rushan usually likes to play with this painting alone, otherwise he would not have deliberately hung it in the courtyard where he often stays. Every time he sits alone and looks at a painting, he always feels that the person who painted this painting must be a hermit master who is not stained with dust, just like him, he does not like the hustle and bustle of the world and sees through the prosperity of the world, as if the soul is transcendent. Therefore, he longed for the owner of the painting, and in his heart he regarded him as a confidant, and once thought of drinking with that person for three days.
Now, he glanced at Ye Changsheng, who was sitting across from him, pinching the peach blossom cake with a stupid face, and there was still residual sugar residue in his mouth, and he instantly felt like he had been disillusioned for many years. Therefore, he said angrily: "Nonsense! How can you, a yellow-mouthed child, be the owner of this painting! ”
"It's true!" Ye Changsheng defended, "I really painted it, I don't believe you can look at the small seal in the corner, it's me!" ”
Chu Liuxiang stood up and walked over, and after looking for a while, he finally found a small red seal next to the trunk in the lower right corner, because part of it was covered by black ink, so he couldn't see it clearly.
The seal is also very interesting, it is not the name of anyone, but a fat and round little phoenix.
"It was a seal carved for me by my second sister, I liked it at the time, and I carried it everywhere I went." Ye Changsheng said proudly.
Shen Rushan was silent, he looked at the painting silently, and then turned his head to look at Ye Changsheng, his face turned blue.
Shen Qing also ran over to look at it for a long time, although she didn't actually understand where the charm of this painting was, but in line with the idea that everything is good for the person she liked, she also followed with a look of worship: "Sheng Sheng is so powerful!" It's so good, my dad loves this painting the most! ”
Chu Liuxiang also smiled and praised without hesitation: "It's really a good painting." ”
was praised severely, Ye Changsheng's little vanity was satisfied, and the whole person was shy and didn't know where to hide.
Shen Qing ran over and sat down, holding his face full of stars: "Shengsheng, what else can you do besides writing and painting?" ”
Ye Changsheng thought for a while and replied: "I can also blow the flute, my eldest brother and second brother and sister, they all say that I play well, listen to me for three days." However, they said that the would be tiring for me, so they tried not to let me touch it on weekdays. ”
As soon as he heard that he could also give a, Shen Qing clapped his hands happily: "Great! My dad can also blow the flute, he blows very well, usually the bamboo Xiao doesn't leave his body, dad, take it out and give it to Sheng Sheng to try. ”
The baby daughter turned her face and sold herself, Shen Rushan was heartbroken, and she didn't give it with a cold face.
Seeing that her father was not cooperative, Shen Qing began to make a fuss, "Daddy, don't be stingy, just lend Sheng Sheng for a while!" ”
After all, Shen Rushan couldn't grind the prayer of his beloved daughter, and after enduring it for a long time, he still took out the bamboo Xiao on his waist, and handed it to Ye Changsheng with his hands like Shen Qing's treasure.
Although he was unhappy, Shen Rushan would not admit that in fact, he had a little expectation in his heart, and a child who could draw so well would definitely not be bad at giving a.
Then he was slapped in the face by the magic sound.
Chu Liuxiang's hand holding the teacup shook, and he didn't care about the hot tea splashed on his hand.
He watched Ye Changsheng blow Zhu Xiao seriously, and the huge waves in his heart were already monstrous.
It's unbelievable that such a hoarse and hoarse tune was actually blown by the soft and cute Ye Changsheng.
And Shen Rushan and Shen Qing's father and daughter were already stunned, probably because they had never heard anyone play such an ugly tune.
Ye Changsheng didn't realize how much noise he had made, and seriously finished blowing a song of spring and white snow, and then turned his head to look at Chu Liuxiang, expecting praise.
Chu Liuxiang looked at his little face eager for praise for a long time, and decisively betrayed his conscience, "Changsheng played the tune...... Well...... Truly...... Extraordinary. ”
Shen Qing also came back to his senses and applauded: "Sheng Sheng is playing very well!" Better than my daddy! ”
Shen Rushan looked at his daughter and friends in disbelief and opened their eyes and said nonsense, "Are you all deaf?" This can also be called a tune!? The old woman in the countryside blows better leaves than him! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qing stepped on him under the table.
"Shengsheng, don't listen to my father's nonsense, you're good at blowing!" Shen Qing secretly glared at her father and smiled at Ye Changsheng.
Shen Rushan suffered unfair treatment, and he couldn't say anything after listening to such an ugly tune, so he stood up and left angrily.
Ye Changsheng sat there embarrassed, and said uneasily: "Am I, really hard to hear?" No one had ever said such a thing to him, and now that he saw Shen Rushan's reaction, he began to wonder.
Chu Liuxiang looked sad and worried when she saw him, and poured him a cup of tea to coax him: "No, the song is very good, don't you believe Brother Chu's words?" ”
"Faith." Ye Changsheng nodded, and was fed and took a sip of tea, "But Mr. Shen said ......"
"My dad hasn't been in a very good mood lately, don't worry about him." Shen Qing also agreed.
The two of you comforted Ye Changsheng with a word, and finally succeeded in misleading him, "It's not that I blow it badly, but because Mr. Shen won't appreciate it."
So Ye Changsheng, who was finally relieved, was happy again: "My father also said that I played it well, why don't I do it again?" ”
Chu Liuxiang's body stiffened, calmly took a sip of tea, and then put Zhu Xiao on a chair that Ye Changsheng couldn't reach, and coaxed gently: "Come and taste this wine-stuffed osmanthus cake, it is Brother Shen's best dim sum, and the is an individual job, what will you do if you are tired later." Well-behaved, obedient. ”
There was food coaxing, and Ye Changsheng, who had successfully been diverted, lowered his head and concentrated on eating snacks.
And Chu Liuxiang breathed a sigh of relief, but in her heart, she also sighed that the Ye family was reluctant to hit their own baby bumps, so they could only try their best to deceive, but they really couldn't stand the magic sound in their ears, so they changed their ways to prevent his hand from touching the flute, which was really embarrassing for them.
Wrap around the beam for three days...... In a sense, that's right.
