Chapter 18 Who is the Red Line?
Before they left, Ah Zhiniang stopped talking a few times, Ruan Xingyan saw it, and asked her directly, "Mother-in-law, what do you want to say?" ”
Ah Zhiniang sighed, "Apricot, can the old woman tell you a few words alone?" ”
Ruan Xingyan never thought that Ah Zhi Niang wanted to talk to her alone because of Brother Ah Zhi.
"Apricot, how old are you?" Ah Zhiniang asked her.
"I just turned 19 years old, and yesterday was my birthday. Mother-in-law, what's wrong? ”
"The seventh day of the seventh month, what a good day! Good girl, our Ah Zhi is twenty-two years old, three years older than you. ”
Ruan Xingyan nodded. Hearing her mention Ah Zhi, a bad feeling slowly emerged in her heart, is this to be a matchmaker?
"Although the old woman's eyes can't see, her heart is bright, and she knows that you are a good girl. Ah Zhi has not been married in his twenties, just because I want to follow his heart and marry what he is willing to marry. But it's been several years, and Ah Zhi doesn't have a mind. The old woman also recently found out that we like you. When she said this, she paused, "Apricot, my wife also let out this old face today, so I will ask you if you are willing to marry our Ah Zhi, it doesn't matter if you don't want to, my wife won't force it." ”
Ruan Xingyan sighed secretly, it was really a proper matchmaker!
"Mother-in-law, that ......"
"Our family's family is not good, my wife knows. Alas, if it weren't for me, a blind old woman, my Ah Zhi would have gone to the Imperial City a long time ago. She let out a long sigh, "His grandfather was also the first imperial city physician from our Baizhi Town, and now only our orphans and widows are left, and everything is empty!" ”
"Mother-in-law." Ruan Xingyan was careless and unbearable.
"Don't pity my old woman, Apricot, it doesn't matter if you don't want to, just treat it as an old woman and don't say anything."
To say that Ruan Xingyan is nineteen this year, she has just been in the drama for a year, from junior high school to college, there is no shortage of various suitors, but Ruan Xingyan has always avoided them. It's not that she doesn't like one, it's that she doesn't want to at all, she doesn't want to touch her feelings, and it's more because she's afraid of being hurt.
"Seventeen, that mother-in-law wants Apricot to marry Ah Zhi." Yaoji, who was waiting outside the door, said to Seventeen Jun with a smile.
After hearing this, Seventeen Jun was stunned for a moment, and then used a voyeurism to listen to them.
"Mother-in-law, I don't want to marry Brother Ah Zhi, it's not that Brother Ah Zhi is bad, it's not that I dislike your family background, but I don't have the heart to marry, and a person like Brother Ah Zhi must be able to find a virtuous and better girl."
"Mother, I'm back." At this time, Ah Zhi came back from the mountain and saw that Seventeen Jun greeted him first, and then said hello to Yaoji, and then raised his voice to greet his mother.
Ruan Xingyan helped Ah Zhiniang out.
"Apricot girl."
"Brother Azhi."
They shouted at each other at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.
"There is no red line between them, you don't have to worry about your apprentice getting married." Yaoji's secret voice reached the ears of Seventeen Jun.
Then she said "huh" again, and looked at each other in surprise between Seventeen Jun and Ruan Xingyan.
"Yaoji, what are you looking at?" Ruan Xingyan came over at this time.
"Whose hand am I looking at your red thread?" Yaoji whispered to her, "It's not that Ah Zhi. ”
"Brother Zhi, we're going back." Ruan Xingyan said goodbye to them.
Ah Zhi also wanted to give them some silver, but Ruan Xingyan didn't take it this time.
When she left, Ruan Xingyan asked Yaoji, "Are you Yue Lao's apprentice?" How do I know who has my red thread? ”
Yao Ji smiled a little shyly, "Grandpa Yue taught me a little, so my red line physiognomy is not very good." She endured it, but still kept silent about the faint red thread she had just seen between their master and apprentice. She felt that it was strange that they were a mortal, an immortal, and that they had a red thread, and it must be because of her lack of skill.
Yaoji's beauty, even if she wears plain clothes, it is difficult to hide her elegance, coupled with her innocent personality, she looks even more lively and cute, so Ruan Xingyan likes this lively and sincere girl very much, there is no pretension, not delicate, naturally she is like a person very quickly, and she sticks together wherever she goes. On the contrary, it is the total shadow of Seventeen Jun.
The three of them went directly to Dongqi City this time, and Dongqi City has jurisdiction over four towns and eighteen villages, including Baizhi Town and Wansha Village. The scenery of the city is naturally more exquisite than that of a town. Pavilions, high gates, courtyards, red walls and green tiles, Yao Ji and Ruan Xingyan looked at it in amazement, just like a little village girl who had never seen the world, and was often looked at sideways by others.
However, because of the three of them, their appearance is too high, so more people are ashamed of themselves after looking sideways.
"Apricot, haven't you been to the city?"
"It's not just that I've never been to town. By the way, I didn't tell you, I came from a thousand years later, and our house there is not the same as here. Although I have seen many ancient towns, as well as the Forbidden City, it is the first time I have seen the real thing, and the houses here are still different from the ancient towns I saw, after all, the future ancient towns have been renovated. ”
"A thousand years later? Can mortals travel through time? Yao Ji's surprise was no less than the red line that she saw before, they immortals couldn't travel through time and space, how could she do it as a mortal?
"I don't know how I got here, anyway, I was pushed into the lake by my classmates, and after falling into the water, I appeared in another place, and it was Master who saved me."
Yao Ji suddenly stopped, "I want to go back to the Heavenly Palace." ”
"What's wrong?" Ruan Xingyan didn't know why.
"I'll go find the Star Immortal Venerable, he may know the reason, I'll help you ask." Yao Ji shook her head and just wanted to leave.
"Wait." Seventeen Jun called out to her and looked around on the street, "You can't leave here." ”
"Why?"
Ruan Xingyan also understood the character of this person who said that wind is rain, "If you suddenly disappear as a big living person, others will think that you have seen a ghost." ”
"So how do I get there?"
"Go to a place where no one is around." Ruan Xingyan pulled her away, but she still persuaded all the way, "You said that you would accompany me to the rivers and lakes, how can you say that you will leave?" ”
"I'll be back soon, although I'm young, but my fairy skills are very good, and I'll be back soon." Yao Ji was too curious about the origin of the apricot, "By the way, I can still find the widow God, he is broad and profound, and he must know some things." ”
Seventeen Jun heard Yaoji say this, and was a little hesitant to let her not tell the master about his condition, he didn't want to leave Apricot for the time being.
He wanted to speak and stopped, looking at Ruan Xingyan, but saw her staring at him for a moment, such a complicated gaze made him feel distressed. He said to Yao Ji, "When you see my master, don't talk about me first. ”
