Chapter 47: Sheet Music (2)
In the eyes of a young man who has just fallen in love, his sweetheart's every move is beautiful.
The shallow smile on the girl's smooth cheeks, as well as the soft voice of Yuanqing's cousin (people originally had such a voice, okay), all made Chen Yuanqing's heart flutter
Ji Yu couldn't help but quietly glared at Chen Yuanqing.
Chen Yuanqing reluctantly restrained his mind and said with a smile: "Cousin Jin, this is a guqin book, which I spent a lot of effort to obtain. I heard my cousin say that you are also good at piano skills, so you might as well practice more piano scores. ”
Nowadays, qin scores are rare, and guqin scores are even more precious. When people who love the qin get the guqin scores, most of them will carefully collect them, and they will not take them out to show off. I don't know where Chen Yuanqing got his piano score.
Xu Jinyu's heart flashed slightly, and she replied casually: "This guqin score was specially given to your cousin, how can I be embarrassed to practice it." ”
Chen Yuanqing blurted out without thinking: "Actually, I originally planned to give it to you." I'm just afraid that I will be too presumptuous and make my cousin unhappy! ”
Ji Yu: ""
Who was the courteous and flattering person who held the piano score to please before? Who said that "Cousin Yu's piano skills are unparalleled, this guqin score is only the most suitable for Cousin Yu"?
After Chen Yuanqing said his words, he realized the gaffe, and remedied with a wry smile: "Don't be surprised, cousin, I don't mean to feel sorry for this guqin book." ”
Ji Yu glanced at Chen Yuanqing with a smile, and said coldly: "It's useless to feel distressed. Since it was given to me, it is mine. Whether I show it to Cousin Jin or not depends on how I feel. Unfortunately, I'm not in a good mood right now. ”
Chen Yuanqing: ""
Xu Jinyu couldn't help but chuckle.
Chen Yuanqing's handsome face flushed, fortunately, he was not a shy and shy person, and soon returned to normal, and apologized to Ji Yu with a smile: "I was a momentary gaffe just now, cousin Yu, don't be surprised." ”
With Xu Zheng in the way, it was difficult for him to see Xu Jinyu. Fortunately, he was smart, and he quickly thought of starting from Ji Yu's side. Ji Yu is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and her cousin's pleas will never be ignored. Therefore, Chen Yuanqing finally succeeded in meeting Xu Jinyu today.
Therefore, Ji Yu must not be guilty!
Ji Yu knew about Chen Yuanqing's little abacus, and said with a smile: "If I am surprised, will you never come to Agarwood Pavilion again?" ”
Chen Yuanqing smiled cheekily: "Cousin Yu is the most kind-hearted, where is she willing to be angry with me." ”
This time, even Ji Yu was amused. The little sulking that I had before disappeared in an instant: "Forget it, I don't have the same knowledge as you." Cousin Jin, come over and read the sheet music. I've just watched some of them, and some of them are very difficult, so I don't know if I can play them! ”
Xu Jinyu responded with a smile and walked to Ji Yu's side. The two of them put their heads together and studied the score. Naturally, there is no time to deal with Chen Yuanqing.
Chen Yuanqing did not feel dull and bored at all. It's rare to have such a good opportunity to stay with Xu Jinyu, even if there is Ji Yu next to him, even if the two don't say much, just looking at her quietly, he is satisfied.
Those two bright and enthusiastic eyes are really impossible to ignore. Even Ji Yu felt a little uncomfortable. Xu Jinyu looked at the score intently as if she hadn't noticed anything.
Ji Yu couldn't help but have a little more affection for Xu Jinyu.
But all women have some vanity. Chen Yuanqing's family background is outstanding, talented, enthusiastic, hearty and likable, under the admiration of such an excellent young man, Xu Jinyu is not complacent or fluttering, this calmness has to be admired.
Xu Jinyu raised her eyes and smiled: "Cousin, just looking at it like this, it's like scratching your boots." I'd like to borrow your piano. ”
Ji Yu nodded happily: "I also have this intention." ”
Turning his head and commanding, soon a maid came with a piano in her hand.
The piano was placed on the piano stand, and a piece of sandalwood was burned, Xu Jinyu washed her hands and sat down, her slender fingers gently plucking the strings. Because it is an unfamiliar sheet music, it is not skilled in playing and intermittent.
After playing, Ji Yu was about to speak, but Chen Yuanqing had already taken the lead: "Cousin Jin has only been reading the piano score for a long time, and she can play so well, it's amazing!" ”
Xu Jinyu smiled slightly: "Cousin Yuanqing praised it falsely!" My piano skills are mediocre, far worse than my cousin. ”
As soon as the words fell, a surprised girl's voice sounded at the door: "Cousin Yuanqing!" ”
It's Ji Yu here!
Ji Yu saw Chen Yuanqing just as Chen Yuanqing saw Xu Jinyu, her eyes were full of joy, and she trotted all the way to him: "Cousin Yuanqing, when did you come?" Why don't you go to Qingzhiyuan to find me? ”
Ji Yu: ""
People are not familiar with you at all, why should I go to Qingzhiyuan to find you!
The smile on Chen Yuanqing's face faded, and he responded politely and politely: "I got this piano score by chance, and I remembered that Cousin Yu is the best at piano skills, so I came here today and gave the score to Cousin Yu." ”
Ji Yu immediately looked at Ji Yu dissatisfied: "Second sister, why did you only call Cousin Jin over, but didn't let people go to Qingzhiyuan to call me?" I'm your own sister! How can there be an elbow turned outward? ”
The corners of Ji Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and she glared at Chen Yuanqing first.
Obviously, it was Chen Yuanqing who begged her to invite Xu Jinyu over, originally planning to hide it from Ji Yu, but she happened to be touched by Ji Yu, and she came to accuse her angrily.
Chen Yuanqing quickly replied with a "I'll leave this matter to you" look, and then quickly turned his head and put on an innocent expression
Look what a hassle this is!
Ji Yu held back a sullen breath, and her face and tone were not much better: "Don't you hate playing the piano the most?" The luthiers that your mother invited for you were all angry with you. I got the score, so I didn't think of inviting you over. ”
Ji Yu was exposed, and her pretty face suddenly turned red. I don't know if it's shame or annoyance.
Xu Jinyu couldn't help laughing and started a round: "Since Cousin Yu is here, you might as well take a look at the piano score." I practiced it just now, and there are a few places where I can't play smoothly. I just want to ask my cousin to play it again! ”
Ji Yu is still a little self-aware, knowing that her piano skills are really not good, and she doesn't want to lose this person in front of Chen Yuanqing. Hearing this, he pretended to respond: "It's okay, I haven't heard my second sister play the piano for a long time." ”
After speaking, he naturally stood on Chen Yuanqing's side.
Ji Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes, and sat down to stroke the piano with an expressionless face.
Xu Jinyu made up her mind to keep a distance from Chen Yuanqing, stood beside Ji Yu, and watched Ji Yu play the piano seriously and intently
Chen Yuanqing lay in the Agarwood Pavilion for an afternoon before reluctantly getting up and saying goodbye.
He wanted to wait for dinner before leaving, but it had been so long since he had slipped out that it was really unreasonable not to go back. There is a more important reason that Xu Zheng is back
Of course, he was by no means afraid of Xu Zheng.
My Fair Lady, Gentleman! He just likes Xu Jinyu, and he likes it at first sight. What's wrong with him going to the trouble of finding an opportunity to meet her?
As an elder brother, Xu Zheng's feelings of loving his sister and protecting his sister are understandable. However, there will always be a day when a girl grows up and gets married. Xu Zheng guarded him like a thief, and he was clearly pushing the best sister-in-law candidate. This is simply not an option.
Chen Yuanqing thought confidently, and said goodbye to Xu Zheng in general courtesy: "It's not been a short time since I've been here." If I don't go back, my mother should be worried and anxious. ”
Xu Zheng tugged at the corners of his lips lukewarmly: "Cousin Yuanqing walks slowly, my sister and I won't send you." ”
Chen Yuanqing smiled a little wryly: "If you come and go often, you don't have to be so polite." I'll go first, and I'll come back in a few days. ”
Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Xu Jinyu.
Xu Jinyu lowered her eyes and did not look at him.
Chen Yuanqing only thought that Xu Jinyu was reserved and shy, and he didn't take it to heart. Although I didn't say much, I have been staying with Xu Jinyu for half a day, and my mood is really wonderful.
Chen Yuanqing's good mood continued until he returned home.
As soon as he entered the mansion, a small servant hurriedly came to report: "Third Young Master, Second Young Master said, let you go to Moyuanju when you return to the mansion." ”
Chen Yuanqing paused, and his expression was inexplicably a little empty-hearted: "Second brother really said that?" ”
The little servant laughed and said: "How dare the slave lie and deceive the third young master, the second young master Shen Shi is returning to the mansion, and he has been waiting for the third young master for an hour." ”
Chen Yuanqing didn't know what he thought, and said with a slightly bitter face: "Okay, I know, I'll go." ”
Chen Yuanzhao stayed in the barracks all year round and rarely came back. has not married and has children, and the huge Moyuan is spotlessly cleaned, but it is deserted.
Except for a few small servants who did rough chores, all the guards who came and went were strong, and there was not even a single maid with a water spirit. At first glance, it looks like entering a barracks.
Chen Yuanzhao has had a cold temperament since he was a child, is not close to women, and never lets maids serve him closely.
Duchess An Guo was anxious in her eyes, since Chen Yuanzhao was fifteen years old, the Ye family carefully selected beautiful and clever maids to send to Moyuan Hall, and the intention was self-evident. It's a pity that Chen Yuanzhao didn't appreciate it at all, and unceremoniously kicked out all the maids. Then he stayed in the barracks for three months and never returned home.
Ye had no choice but to temporarily dispel the idea of having a maid in the room. Instead, he worried about Chen Yuanzhao's family affairs.
In Ye's view, as long as Chen Yuanzhao becomes a relative and tastes love, this problem of not being close to women will naturally change. It's a pity that Chen Yuanzhao didn't understand her intentions at all, and went to An Guogong in private. I don't know what the father and son said, An Guogong made the decision to let Chen Yuanzhao not marry for the time being. Although Ye was unhappy, he was helpless.
Chen Yuanzhao's family affairs have been delayed so far.
There has never been a hostess in Moyuan Hall.
Chen Yuanqing and Chen Yuanzhao have a good relationship, but what he is most afraid of in his life is his cold-faced second cousin. Especially when doing a small bad thing, R1152
