09 A different spring breeze
"yes." Duan Lianyi replied in a low voice, not knowing whether he was agreeing with Yun Sheng's previous sentence or answering Yun Sheng's last sentence.
Yun Sheng hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, and suddenly changed the topic: "Yesterday, that Du Gongzi seems to have gone to your Qingyi Pavilion to find you again." ”
Duan Lianyi changed when he heard this, but he tried his best to pretend not to care, and only nodded.
Yun Sheng noticed that her fists were clenched, and sighed, feeling that there was something that should be said or said, so she spoke: "Your mother in Qingyige told him that you have returned to your hometown, and he was going to leave, but then he didn't know what was going on, and he was left behind by Miss Qufu. ”
The implication is already very clear, the two are just a dewy marriage, she thinks too much, the love in the land of fireworks is false, if she believes it, she can only blame herself for being too stupid.
Duan Lianyi's expression didn't change much, but the atmosphere around her was obviously colder, which was something that even the noisy little parrot noticed it, jumped twice, closed its mouth and refused to speak again.
It's a funny little thing, after almost starving to death, but learned to read people's eyes?
After a long while, Duan Lianyi withdrew his gaze from the river to look at Yun Sheng, and said thank you softly.
The voice was slender, with a hint of imperceptible trembling.
Yun Sheng smiled: "I said earlier that you don't need to be polite to me, after all, I am older than you, if you don't dislike it, I can be regarded as your sister, if you need any help, just tell me." After that, he grabbed a little feed for the parrot from the bag, then turned around and grabbed Duan Lianyi's hand again, snickering: "Let's go, I'll take you to find something interesting." Still without waiting for Duan Ripple to agree, he directly dragged her away.
The two of them went to the front building of Chunfeng Ferry this time, the scorching sun was shining outside, and the girls gathered on the first floor to talk and laugh, and the business had not yet come to the door, and everyone was not in a hurry. Doing manual work to practice calligraphy and painting, some things are to pass the time.
Yun Sheng passed by the second floor, and a girl below saw it and beckoned, "Yun Sheng." The lover just sent some fruit and lotus seed soup, come and taste it. The voice was slender and gentle, and it didn't have much strength to listen to, but it was the usual tone of the girls in the land of fireworks.
Duan Lianyi poked his head and saw that there were many girls gathered in the private room on the first floor. Some are playing chess, some are playing mahjong, smiling, eating melons and fruits. Of course, there are also disputes, and the bad brand loses a game and keeps complaining, which angers the other party, and the two quarrel, which is a little better than the shrew on the street.
Won't the shopkeeper scold like this? Duan Lianyi felt a little incredible, no wonder everyone could hear the laughter and laughter from Chunfeng Ferry all day long in Qingyi Pavilion, and thought that the business of Chunfeng Ferry during the day was as good as at night. Everyone was jealous, but they didn't expect that it was the girls who were entertaining themselves.
Even though it was daytime, there were guests who came, but there were fewer in the morning than at noon and in the evening.
At the door of the speech, a man in a long shirt came, wearing a melon skin hat, a mustache, and a rat's head. Duan Lianyi knew him, and this person had also been to Qingyi Pavilion - the money shopkeeper of Chengxi Baili Wine Workshop, who had a good face and loved to take advantage. There is a tigress in the family who is very strict, and often sneaks to the flower street in the morning to be happy and happy, but the tigress is deceived that she is going to the store to do things.
Liu Qi will remember this person because he is stingy.
As soon as he entered, two girls greeted him. After a few compliments, the money shopkeeper's eyes turned to a girl who was playing chess on the side.
"Well, Boss Qian has kicked the iron plate, and when Green Jacket plays chess, she hates others to disturb her the most, and every time she plays chess, she must play until the winner is decided. Hongmei's chess skills and green jackets are indistinguishable, and the two of them basically won't stop for an hour, so the boss of this money can wait. Yun Sheng smiled on the side, quite gloating.
Sure enough, the boss of the money pushed aside the two beauties beside him, and walked straight towards the green jacket who was playing chess, smiling and shyly and not knowing what to say, the green jacket was stunned and didn't reply to a word, but only played chess vigorously, which made the boss of the money ashamed and annoyed, but he was reluctant to leave.
Boss Qian came, Duan Lianyi couldn't go downstairs, Yun Sheng took her hand: "Let's go, I'll take you to the Piao Piao room, and when you come out later, it is estimated that this Boss Qian is holding the wine jar and watching the green jacket play chess in a daze." ”
Duan Lianyi followed her step by step, but he didn't resist.
Just fluttering? Isn't it Liu Piaopiao, why did Yun Sheng take her to see Liu Piaopiao? Duan Lianyi soon knew the answer.
Yun Sheng took her to the door of Liu Piaopiao's room, knocked on the door, and without waiting for the person inside to answer, she said loudly: "Piaopiao, I'm coming in." ”
There was an almost imperceptible ** sound from inside, and I don't know if the two of them heard it, but Yun Sheng's hand had already pushed the door open first.
The room is very large, the decoration is gorgeous and exquisite, Duan Lianyi Fang walked into the room and felt a chill on his face, the temperature in this room was really different from the outside, he turned his head to take a look, only to find that there was a large basin of ice cubes around the corner of the room, which dispersed a lot of heat in the room. It's nice to be able to sleep in a room like this on a hot summer day, but if you use this method every day, you really have to burn a lot of silver.
Duan Lianyi's eyes looked at the only big bed in the room, only to see that the person above was rolled up in the quilt, she noticed the sound of the door being pushed open, moved slightly, as if she wanted to get up, but in the end she fell back again, let out a low sigh, and continued to fall asleep.
Hmm, is this a failure to get out of bed?
"Piao Piao is like this all year round, she is basically sleeping when she doesn't see guests, don't worry about her." Yun Sheng said as he entered the room by himself and walked towards the balcony, "Ripples, come and take a look, this little guy is still here." Yun Sheng's tone was a little excited, and he turned around and waved at Duan Ripple, urging.
Duan Lianyi hesitated for a second, then turned his head again to glance at the quilt rolled up on the bed, worried that he would make a noise to her, and deliberately slowed down and walked to the balcony.
I saw a rattan chair on the balcony, and a piece of cloth was tied to the handles on both sides of the rattan chair, so that a shaded place was separated between the rattan chair and the cloth. Yun Sheng smiled and pointed to the bottom of the cloth, Duan Lianyi looked down, it turned out that there was a big white cat lying inside!
Well, it's really a fat big white cat.
The cat is a sleepy animal, and it sleeps almost all the time when it has nothing to do, but it is quite similar to the personality of the owner of this room.
Duan Lianyi looked at the big cat. Somehow, I remembered the proud Persian cat of Qufu.
"What's its name?" Duan Lianyi asked.
"It's called Qin Chu, this cat was also given by your Second Young Master Wen, if I'm not mistaken, this name was originally the name of an old beggar. Back then, Miaomiao rescued you Second Young Master Wen once, and an old beggar got excited and wanted to do something bad to Miaomiao, but was bumped into by Second Young Master Wen and blasted away. Later, he gave the cat this name, and gave it to Miaomiao, probably because he wanted Miaomiao to vent his anger. But he didn't know that Miaomiao had always been knife-mouthed and tofu-hearted, where was she really willing to abuse this cat, and if she lost it, she was so anxious to look for miles all over the street. ”
"This cat belongs to the shopkeeper Shen?"
"Yes, do you want to hug it, this cat likes to be massaged, if you rub its back more, it will squint comfortably." Yun Sheng said, got up and uncovered the cloth.
Without the cloth, the sun shines directly on the cat's eyes. The cat was so stimulated that it opened its eyes and looked at the two people in front of her. Yun Sheng didn't wait for it to react, hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, reached out and grabbed the cat's hind meat, lifted it vigorously, and reached out to hold its buttocks. The cat was frightened and struggled for a while, Yun Sheng moved very quickly and pulled it into his arms, the cat got out of the state of suspension in mid-air and smelled the smell of the human body, and immediately arched his body. found a comfortable seat in Yun Sheng's arms, and collapsed again.
"Meow~"
Yun Sheng smoothed it out, and Qin Chu meowed at the right time, which was counted as a reward for Yun Sheng. This cat is not afraid of life at all. It looks very well-behaved, too.
Duan Lianyi felt novel, she had naturally seen cats, mostly wild cats on the streets and alleys, occasionally climbing on other people's roofs to make trouble, or stealing fish from vendors and being chased and beaten, a pair of bright eyes looked a little breathtaking. Coupled with that agile posture, ordinary people can't catch up with cats. There are others, such as the Persian cat that Qu Fu received, who was as proud as a princess, and didn't even look at people, but was willing to squint and sleep in Qu Fu's arms, and others couldn't look at it no matter how much trouble it made.
Duan Lianyi thought that cats were like that, but he didn't want to be so interesting, he could be grabbed in his hand and rubbed and rounded, as long as it didn't hurt it, it would meow happily, and even took the initiative to hook people's hands with its paws, begging people to touch its head.
Duan Lianyi admitted that he was scared, the cat's claws turned out to be soft, and the middle turned out to be pink, without hair, and it would not show its claws casually.
"Can I touch it" Duan Lianyi said carefully, she had never touched this kind of thing since she was a child, wild cats and wild dogs had seen a lot, she used to be very disgusted with this kind of superfluous thing, why did they have to do nothing to have someone to feed them, but she and Daddy had to go hungry, and they really didn't live as well as cats and dogs.
Now looking at the soft little thing in front of her, she felt that there seemed to be a slight heat in her heart, and she was a little nervous and impatient.
"Of course you can, this thing stinks and sinks, and I like it when others touch it." Yun Sheng smiled, and as he spoke, he handed the cat forward.
Duan Lianyi stretched out her hand, and the first thing her palm touched was a soft hair, the cat was used to being touched, and stretched out her head and took the initiative to rub it under her palm. What the palm of his hand touched was a warm and soft mass, the cat was actually not as fat as it looked, Duan Lianyi pressed the hair down, and found that he could touch the cat's back.
It's really a novel little thing, now I finally understand why some people like to raise cats and dogs, it turns out that it's not just to catch rats or watch the door or something, it turns out that when you touch a small pet, your heart will be so happy and warm!
"Is this called Duan Ripple?" A voice suddenly interjected between the two, and the voice was sweet and light.
Duan Lianyi looked back, only to see Liu Piaopiao sitting on the rattan chair behind her, she was wrapped in a thin blanket, the whole person shrunk in the chair, holding her knees with her hands, tilting her head and leaning on the flower stand on the side to look this way, without applying fat powder, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her body was lazy.
This person is the top girl of Chunfeng Crossing! Duan Lianyi hurriedly turned around and nodded respectfully: "Hello Miss Liu." She remembered Qu Fu's usual style, and thought that every top girl in the family was a high-ranking look.
On the contrary, Liu Piaopiao blinked, looked at Yun Sheng strangely, and was puzzled: "Hello, Yun Sheng, do I have a feeling that it is difficult for people to get along?" ”
Yun Sheng was happy: "Didn't Miaomiao tell you about ripples?" ”
Liu Piaopiao looked melancholy, blinking her eyes as if she was trying to recall something, and finally sighed softly: "I remember, Miaomiao came once in the morning, I just sent the guests away, I was sleepy, I was sleepy, where did I remember what she said, I only remember a new girl named Duan Lianyi." ”
"It's really your usual style." Yun Sheng shrugged.
Liu Piaopiao glared at her lightly, but she was not really angry, then turned her head to look at Duan Lianyi, and muttered for a moment: "Duan Lianyi, can I call you Ripples?" There aren't many girls at your age, I don't know if you are."
Yun Sheng was anxious: "Liu Piaopiao, can you have a little memory, this one is from the opposite building, something happened, Second Young Master Wen entrusted her to Miaomiao's care, and she can't leak her things in Chunfengdu, especially to Mo Daofu and a man named Du Zimo!" ”
"Oh." Liu Piaopiao nodded very teachablely, then turned his head to look at Duan Lianyi, and changed his words: "Lianyi, you can call me Piaopiao, as the predecessor of Chunfengdu, I will give you two pieces of advice, first of all, the first point is to stay away from Yun Sheng, Yun Sheng is very pestering, especially good at pestering people, I'm not joking" Liu Piaopiao said while yawning sleepily, as if he felt that his appearance looked unconvincing, and he stopped immediately halfway through the yawn, and then settled down, He met Duan Ripple's eyes very seriously, and repeated it word by word.
Yun Sheng's hand shook, resisting the urge to push Liu Piaopiao off the chair.
Duan Lianyi smiled: "Hmm, I know." ”
Yun Sheng's hand paused, and he finally saw this girl really smile once. (To be continued.) )
