Chapter 06: Drunken Lovesickness
"Girl...... I'll be waiting for you there. ”
This ethereal voice, coming from the dense mist, was warm in the ears.
The purple kite's cold body trembled a little, and opened her eyes slightly, but her eyes hurt from the sunlight shining in from the window. She stretched out her hand to block out the light, and slowly got used to it, looking at the unfamiliar room in front of her little by little.
The plain white walls are not elegantly hung with a few calligraphy and paintings like ordinary people, but they are cleaned and cleaned, and the decoration is very simple, but it does not feel monotonous, but looks down-to-earth and generous.
Here it is......
The purple kite sat up with a confused face, the quilt slid down, and a chill hit her back. She looked down and suddenly realized that she was naked, blushing and pulling up the quilt to cover her chest. She couldn't remember how she had become like this, and her mind flashed back to last night's scene after scene. She thought of falling into the water, and also remembered the "beauty" who was the culprit...... But who rescued her from the water? The way she looks now is probably the work of the person who "saved her"?!
Don't...... Is it the "ghost beauty"? But she felt in a daze that it was a pair of strong arms, and a warm chest, just like ...... Just like him. The purple kite lowered her head and smelled the faint fragrance of the original owner on the quilt, a unique smell that she would never forget. She chuckled in her heart, and a light red rose to her cheeks.
Was it him? Mo Siyou? Last night, he saved himself?
Purple Kite knew that a gentleman like Mo Siyou, even if he stripped himself naked and put it on the bed and lay in front of him, he would never do anything deviant. So, if it was really him, she could breathe a sigh of relief.
As she thought, she looked out of the corner of her eye to a neat stack of clean clothes on the desk. She took her clothes over and changed them, and thought to herself, I don't know if Mo Siyou is the owner of this house. She opened the window and looked out, and there was a big tree covered with paper cranes outside the house, and her thoughts stopped for a moment, as if she couldn't connect this slightly romantic thing with Mo Si's cold face.
"Wow!" Pin Yan knocked on the door. "Girl, are you still there?"
"Well, Pinyan, come in. The purple kite fastened her belt, but found that there was no bronze mirror in the room, and she didn't know how she looked in this dress.
But when he heard Pinyan, he exclaimed in surprise: "Ah, the clothes picked by the fourth senior brother are really very girly!"
"Huh?" the purple kite looked back at Pinyan. "Brother Mo?" she was a little flattered, what did she mean, was this the clothes he had prepared for himself?
Pin Yan smiled and said: "Yes, the girl is really a blessing, let the fourth senior brother take care of it personally! The fourth senior brother never lets outsiders into his room on weekdays, and it is the first time I have come in, so it can be regarded as the girl's light!"
"It's ...... Brother Mo's room?" Although she had already guessed it, Purple Kite couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
"Hmm. Pinyan nodded, looking at the purple kite with an envious expression. "The fourth senior brother said that the girl fell into the water last night, and he was afraid of the cold, so he went to do the morning class, so he asked me to bring you some ginger soup. ”
It's really him! Purple Kite couldn't help but frown, thinking to herself, then he took care of himself all night last night? If he was around, it was no wonder that he slept so well and didn't feel cold at all. She stretched her waist, drank all the ginger soup sent by Pinyan in one go, and pestered Pinyan to take her to the practice ground.
Pinyan, who was scolded last time, didn't dare to commit it again so soon, although it was a big guest, but he refused to agree, just said that the morning class would be over in another hour, and it would not be too late to find the fourth senior brother then. Purple Kite felt that what Pinyan said was reasonable, and now that she went to the practice ground, maybe Mo Siyou didn't have time to take care of her.
"Why don't we go to the streets, I'm so old, it's the first time I've come to Green Grass Villa, and I haven't done a good walk!" said Purple Kite's eyes lit up.
"If the girl really wants to go, I'll accompany you. Pin Yan smiled. Then she tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "There are so many delicious and interesting things here, I'm afraid that the girl won't have enough time to play in a day! In a few days, there will be lanterns at the annual party, and it will be very beautiful!"
The purple kite almost jumped up when she heard this, and hurriedly pulled Pinyan out of the house. As soon as she got out on the street, she ran like a child.
As a large town in Suzhou and Hangzhou, Bicao Villa not only retains the simplicity and graceful style of the water charm of the south of the Yangtze River, but also does not lose the wealth and prosperity of Kyoto.
"Sugar gourd - sell sugar gourd - fresh sugar gourd!"
The old man's loud shout came from the noise, attracting the attention of the purple kite. She turned to look at the red glossy hawthorn fruit that had been strung together, and her saliva was about to flow.
"Little girl, do you want a bunch?"
The old man asked with a grin, but was disappointed to see the purple kite shake his head. Then, she stretched out three fingers, a pair of big eyes sparkled, and said to the old man, "Can I ask for three strings?"
"Okay!"
Purple Kite was satisfied with three strings of sugar gourds, bouncing through the flow of people, continuing to look for novelties, and Pinyan was almost unable to catch up with her footsteps behind. But in the place ahead, the purple kite suddenly stopped, as if attracted by something. She saw the purple kite walking towards a small bookstall in the corner of the street, and the stall was set up by a gentlemanly and elegant young man, who arranged the books on the stall neatly one by one, and carefully swept away the dust on them with a feather duster, and seemed to cherish these books very much.
"Hey, isn't this Liu Shusheng?" Pinyan was a little surprised.
"Do you know him?" Purple Kite turned to look at Pinyan.
"Hmm. Pinyan nodded and explained to Purple Kite. It turns out that this Liu Shusheng's real name is Liu Shusheng, and he is a well-known filial son here, and he is also a nerd. It is said that the ancestor had obtained fame in the examination and became a great official in charge of literature and history, but because he was too many, Geng Jie was excluded and expelled from the imperial court, and the Liu family was also implicated, and three generations were not allowed to take the fame.
This Liu scholar can be regarded as a full reader of poetry and books, and he is a little sour and rotten on weekdays. He is said to be a nerd, but because he is a philosopher, when his ancestors were officials, his family collected a lot of music scores, and I heard that there are many priceless books. Many people came to the door to buy his books, but he refused to sell them, not even to read them.
"I heard that the fourth senior brother also asked him for a music sheet called 'Acacia', but he also refused. In fact, he himself does not know how to play the flute at all. But...... How could he be willing to sell the book now?"
The book he wanted......
"There are so many books, so let's go and read them. ”
Purple Kite walked quickly to the bookstall and glanced at it casually, and saw many famous songs. If Fang Cai just listened to Pinyan say that, she didn't feel much, and she found that what Pinyan said was not exaggerated at all.
"Drunken Lovesickness, Volume 2. Purple Kite's eyes suddenly lit up, and she reached for the old book that was in the scholar's hand. The cover of the book has been stroked to the bridle, and the footer has been rolled up, and it can be seen that although the owner cherishes it very much, it still cannot withstand the erosion of time.
At this time, Liu Shusheng raised his hand to hold the book down, and smiled politely at the purple kite: "I'm sorry, girl, this book is not for sale." ”
"What are you doing here?" asked Purple Kite with an eyebrow.
"Nothing to do, entertain yourself. If it weren't for the fact that my mother was seriously ill in bed now and had no money for treatment, those scholars would not have put them out for sale. They are all treasures handed down from the ancestors, but they are broken in the hands of Xiaosheng's generation. Ashamed, ashamed!" Liu Shusheng shook his head.
"Didn't the doctor say that Aunt Liu was terminally ill and ...... at all" Pin Yan was halfway through his words, and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly covered his mouth.
Liu Shusheng's eyes darkened, and he muttered: "Even if the doctors all over the world say so, as long as the mother is still breathing, Xiaosheng will do his best to heal." ”
It sounds like a big filial son, but Zi Kite is not interested in the Liu family's family affairs, and her eyes have been stuck on the book "Drunken Acacia", and she is reluctant to give up.
"I heard that the score of "Drunken Acacia" is difficult to understand, and if you don't have profound attainments, I'm afraid it will be difficult to learn even the skin. What's more, this book is divided into three volumes, and you only have two volumes, so it's useless to keep them!"
This book is the only book handed down by the ancestors, and it has extraordinary value for Xiaosheng. Since it has flowed into our clan, it can be regarded as having a relationship with the Liu family. Although Xiaosheng can't study it thoroughly now, as long as Xiaosheng spares no effort to study it repeatedly, he will one day be able to learn and succeed, and he will not disappoint the painstaking efforts of his ancestors. ”
"Only when you are a bosom friend can someone appreciate its beauty. If you can't interpret it, why don't you give it to a real bosom friend? Let the good news be able to reappear in the light of day, which can be regarded as a comfort to the ancestors who wrote the score. You are destined to get a baby, but you are so selfish, it will only make a generation of famous songs end up with hatred and loss. ”
"What the girl means is that my Liu family is incompetent? My Liu family has studied music and rhythm for generations, and although Xiaosheng is gifted and dull, he is diligent and hardworking, and he will eventually be able to learn something! Not to mention that this is a family heirloom, how can he say that he will let it? If the girl can't read other books, please leave, don't trouble Xiaosheng. Liu Shusheng's face turned cold, as if he had given an order to expel customers.
Purple Kite shook her head and said disdainfully: "People like you don't understand where the beauty of music is, and they call it 'music idiot'!"
"Your agitation method is useless to Xiao Sheng, even if you use a knife on Xiao Sheng's neck, this book will not be sold!" Liu Shusheng shook his head resolutely.
"You!" Purple Kite glared at him with an annoyed expression, if it was a normal day, she would have left long ago. She really wanted to do this, but when she thought that the book was Mo Siyu's favorite, she relented. “...... Can't you think about it anymore? You can exchange whatever terms you want me to give!"
"A gentleman doesn't take the favor of others! Liu Shusheng replied resolutely.
"......" The purple kite bit her lower lip, although she thought that she was a woman, not a gentleman, but there was still worry between her eyebrows. What should I do? The book is close at hand, but there is no way to get it......
Purple Kite remembered that Lan Xuan said that Mo Siyou's favorite was the flute and his tree, and this score must be very precious to him. If she could, she really wanted to beat up this stinky scholar and snatch the score.
While thinking about it, the purple kite walked forward step by step, and an idea suddenly popped up in her heart......
