Chapter Seventy-Nine: Harmony of the Piano
The sky of Moran was like silk, without a trace of clouds. The bright moon like a silver plate fell into the sky, exuding a soft light.
The lake is quietly lying below, and there is also a full moon on the water surface, but when the wind blows, the surface of the lake is rippled like fish scales, making the moonlight flow, a little less cold and a little more interesting than the moon in the sky.
The lake carries the moonlight to flow, and when it gathers to the pavilion in the center of the lake, it is blocked again, and waves of ripples open, and on the surface of the lake, the dense shadows of the trees are reflected, and the rockery and roof ridge faintly appear behind the trees.
The pavilion is decorated with light yarn around it, the tulle rises with the wind, and the water vapor lingers, like a fairyland, which is very poetic and picturesque.
And in the middle of the pavilion, there is a guqin horizontally, on which there is a silver jewel, and the silk silk is swaying in the wind.
A woman in white clothes with her back to everyone, sitting behind the piano, dissolving with the beautiful scenery, so beautiful that it is like a fairy descending from the earth, which is suffocating.
On the opposite shore of the lake, the color shed is hung high, the color ball is hung high, and under the color shed sit Mrs. Jin, Jin ingots and a group of relatives and servants of the Jin Mansion.
Mrs. Jin looked at the gazebo on the lake and nodded with satisfaction: "It's no wonder that Xiaoxuan has to prepare for such a long time, it is really ingenious, it is indeed emotional." β
Hearing his mother praise Jiang Xiaoxuan, Jin Yuanbao's heart blossomed, but on the surface, he said quietly and lightly: "I hope it's not just a flower shelf." β
Mrs. Jin turned her head to look at him and said earnestly: "Whether it's a showmanship or not, it's always good for her to put so much effort into it." β
When the gold ingots heard this, their hearts were even more joyful. But he still said stubbornly: "Mother, she is trying to please your old man, so she has gone to such great lengths." β
"It's hard for her to be so filial." Mrs. Jin smiled slightly: "Tell Xiaoxuan." It's time to go. β
A small guy on the other side shook the lantern three times, and the fairy in the gauze tent slowly moved.
The shadow of the water vapor and the moon lingered, and the music flowed out.
The melodious and clear sound of the piano, sometimes naughty and jumping like a stream between streams, is clear and unrestrained, lively and joyful; Sometimes it is like the wind blowing in the pine forest, gentle but with a different kind of calmness; Sometimes it is like snow falling into dust, light and ethereal. It makes people's hearts calm down.
From a distance, the figure of the fairy is graceful and delicate. Elegance and Extraordinary ......
Whether it is this situation, this scene, or this sound and this song, it is intoxicating.
Mrs. Jin admired intoxicatedly: "This old daughter of Jiang Ge really lives up to her reputation, and she is really good at the piano. β
Seeing that his wife can please her mother so much. The gold ingot's heart is extremely comfortable. The corners of his lips gradually outlined a good-looking arc, but he was still silent, just staring intently at his wife, who was as beautiful as a fairy, and listened attentively.
Liu Wenzhao also listened to it on the sidelines.
Liu Qianqian looked left and right, her heart was full of jealousy, and she sneered: "Why is my sister-in-law playing the piano with her back to us?" If you have the ability, turn it around! β
As he spoke, the lantern on the other side shook again.
The person in the pavilion stood up slowly, and then supported the bottom of the guzheng with one hand. Continuing to play the music with one hand, he turned around gorgeously.
Fluttering clothes. Smiling.
Somehow, suddenly seeing her carefully dressed face, the heart of the gold ingots actually popped and jumped quickly.
With the deepening of the music, the jade unicorn is becoming more and more free, quite a human and piano in one.
However, if someone stood in the pavilion and looked closely, they would find that her slender jade fingers did not touch the strings, but only floated on the strings in a pompous posture.
Yu Qilin muttered to himself while pretending to play the piano: "I don't know whose brain is so good." Hehe, my jade unicorn is smart, such a good idea can be thought of by me, oops, I'm really jealous of myself. β
At this time, in the dark corner of the pavilion, a corner of the guzheng was exposed, and if you looked closer, it turned out that Jiang Xiaoxuan was sitting in the grass, Jiang Xiaoxuan was wearing clothes of the same color as the surrounding trees, her face was painted with green paint, and her head was stuck with leaves and straw, and she was very embarrassed and was bowing her head and playing the zither. While playing, he said angrily: "Stinky girl, I am leisurely on it, let me suffer here, see how I will clean you up later!" β
Although it is a fake bullet, the jade unicorn is very involved in the performance, the more the jade unicorn plays, the more cool it becomes, and the movement of the virtual bullet with both hands is getting faster and faster.
Jiang Xiaoxuan, who was in the dark of the pavilion, in order to keep up with the jade unicorn's faster and faster movements, could only follow the hard play, and the faster she played: "Stinky girl, can't you play slower?" You want to kill me! β
Jiang Xiaoxuan was concentrating on playing, when a small flying insect on the ground suddenly bit her hand, Jiang Xiaoxuan's hand trembled and went out of tune. Because of the sudden disappearance, Jiang Xiaoxuan was a little confused and paused for a few seconds.
The jade unicorn was still working hard to make moves, but the sound of the piano was broken, and the jade unicorn didn't know what the situation was, so he had to stop, he was in a hurry, and he couldn't find a way.
At this time, everyone by the lake was intoxicated by Jiang Xiaoxuan's piano sound, and suddenly the piano sound was interrupted, and everyone was stunned.
The jade unicorn didn't dare to look back to see what was going on with Jiang Xiaoxuan, so he hurriedly had an idea, and shouted to the shore through the light veil: "I am like a drunken person when I play this song "Mountains and Flowing Water"βis my mother still satisfied?" β
Mrs. Jin smiled: "Satisfied, satisfied, continue to play." β
Jiang Xiaoxuan blasted away the little flying insects, but accidentally knocked over the guqin, and was hurriedly setting the guqin at this time.
When the jade unicorn heard that there was no movement behind him, he was helpless, and the great god had to jump down: "Please Mother...... Considerately, I was too involved in the game just now, and my emotions were out of control. Ah, when is the bright moon ......?"
Mrs. Jin was surprised: "Why are you still chanting poetry?" β
The gold ingots praised: "The ancients were elegant, weren't they all playing and singing? β
Mrs. Kim nodded.
But where can the jade unicorn chant poetry, held it for a long time, and held back a sentence: "Even if the bright moon has ...... Look up at it yourself, regardless of whether it is round or lacking, and only wish people a long time. β
The gold ingots on the shore squirted out in his mouth with a sip of tea.
Mrs. Jin was even more strange: "Who wrote the poem that Xiaoxuan sang just now?" Why haven't I heard of it? β
Liu Qianqian also covered her mouth and smiled: "Yes, Mrs. Sister-in-law's ancient poems are all taught by the cooks in the house, right?" β
"Uh...... "The gold ingots help round the field." Ancient books have been circulated for thousands of years, and many poems have different versions, and Xiaoxuan is a famous talented woman. It is also normal to know some verses that we don't know. β
Mrs. Jin nodded: "That's right." β
Liu Qianqian sneered: "Do you want to play a tune slowly? Anyway, can you play it or not? Although she said it playfully, her eyes kept staring firmly at the jade unicorn, trying to see some flaws.
Liu Wenzhao didn't think it was strange: "It's common for a master to play the piano and be depressed. β
Seeing this, Mrs. Jin hurriedly called out loudly: "Xiaoxuan." The song doesn't end, and my heart is floating in the air with the boyazi period. Hurry up and finish playing. β
The jade qilin couldn't drag it out: "Uh...... I, I'm coming. β
Although through the gauze curtain, the gold ingots still saw the jade unicorn at a loss.
Before everyone could calm down, the gold ingots had already reacted quickly. Take out your flute and gently pick it up from where you left it off.
The sound of the flute came out of the air, adding a bit of elegance, and the gold ingots stood near the lake. Fluttering clothes. Under the moonlight, there is an indescribable grace.
Jiang Xiaoxuan, who was behind the flowers, heard the sound of the flute, and came back to her senses, Liang Mang continued the song with the sound of the flute.
The jade unicorn immediately realized that this was the gold ingots looking for steps for her, and seriously continued to put up a fight. The collaboration of the flute and the guqin. Jin Yuan Bao and Jiang Xiaoxuan are both masters, instantaneous. It's seamless, it's wonderful.
Mrs. Jin came back to her senses from the accident just now, listened to the ensemble of the flute and the guqin with satisfaction, and smiled heartily: "The qin is harmonious, and the heart is relaxed." β
Aunt Gu also immediately smiled: "Of course, it is worthy of a royal marriage, and it is indeed a match made in heaven." β
When Liu Qianqian heard this, her heart was full of sourness, and she pouted: "It was clearly a mistake just now, reversing black and white." β
Gradually, at the end of a paragraph, the flute and guqin are perfectly coordinated.
The gold ingot put down the flute and sat down again beside his mother.
Mrs. Kim looked at her son and rejoiced with satisfaction.
The solo of the jade unicorn alone came from the surface of the lake again, like a heavenly sound.
At this time, Jiang Xiaoxuan's playing was like a smooth flow and she had regained her freedom.
The performance in the second half is naturally very exciting.
After the performance, when the jade unicorn got up, he secretly smiled at Jiang Xiaoxuan to express his gratitude, and Jiang Xiaoxuan also smiled back lightly.
The jade unicorn left the pavilion, and walked towards everyone with fluttering clothes and ribbons, and the curtain call.
Mrs. Jin took the lead in applauding, and the people around her hurriedly applauded, and for a while, the applause was thunderous.
The jade unicorn walked in the applause, walked up to Mrs. Jin, and saluted: "Mother, my daughter-in-law is ugly." β
Liu Qianqian looked at her and sneered, "What happened just now?" The song suddenly stopped, did you miss it? β
Seeing this, Jin Yuan Bao grabbed the jade unicorn and defended: "It's not a mistake, it's a small design, since the harmony between husband and wife is called Qin Se and Ming, then this song dedicated to my mother "Mountains and Flowing Water" is of course indispensable from my harmony." β
Mrs. Jin took the hands of the two with satisfaction and folded their hands together: "Originality, seamless, Xiaoxuan ingots, I have worked hard for you today." β
The two glanced at each other and said in unison: "Thank you for the compliment!" β
Jin Ingot looked down at the beautiful woman beside her, her eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the red mole behind her ear, under the moonlight, in her wide collar, the crystal white skin was faintly visible, and there was a corner of the red belly pocket.
"Knock knock...... Knock knock...... "His heart beat violently, like a big drum beating in his chest, and he was a little out of breath.
Subconsciously, Jin Yuan didn't look at her at first, but unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, he bumped into Liu Wenzhao's blazing eyes.
The gold ingot's eyes narrowed, and a vigilant light flashed in his eyes.
Liu Wenzhao hurriedly smiled slightly, made a light appearance, and slowly looked away.
The gold ingots frowned, led the jade qilin to the side and sat down, pulled the shawl in Ah Fu's hand and handed it to the jade qilin.
The jade unicorn took it a little inexplicably: "What are you doing?" β
The gold ingot's expression was complicated and indistinguishable, pursed his lips, and said with a stiff face: "Put it on, wear it so little, be careful to freeze you to death." β
The jade unicorn felt warm in his heart, grimaced at the gold ingot, and obediently put on a shawl.
After the banquet, the jade unicorn was about to go to find Jiang Xiaoxuan, but was stopped by the gold ingot.
Jin Yuanbao had a cold face and looked careless: "I played the piano well just now, but if you want to play it, you can play it well, why make some bells and whistles to add to it." β
Jade Qilin was angry: "What are the bells and whistles, I've been thinking about this idea for a long time." β
"That's right, your brain, it's already the limit to think of this." The gold ingots laughed.
Jade Qilin Qi knotted: "If you have the ability, you can play one." This girl doesn't have time to pay attention to you, I still have to go to Cher. With that, he turned around and walked away.
Jin Yuan was in a hurry, and suddenly found that there was a touch of pink on her hair bun, and hurriedly called: "Hey, you have a petal in your hair." β
The jade unicorn stopped and touched his hair: "Where?" β
"A little back, a little bit ahead."
According to the instructions of the gold ingot, the jade qilin still did not find the right place.
"I'm stupid in my brain, and I'm sluggish in my hands." The gold ingots took a step forward and reached out to twist off the petals, but the sleeves were hanging on the jade unicorn's hairpin!
The gold ingots were helpless, so they had to press the jade unicorn's shoulder with his other hand, trying to untie the sleeves from the hairpin.
The jade unicorn was pulled so hard that his scalp hurt, "What are you doing?" Got my hair. β
The gold ingots hurriedly held her down and shouted in a low voice: "Don't move!" Your hairpin hooked into my clothes. β
The jade unicorn was helpless, so he had to stand honestly and remain motionless.
The gold ingots stood in front of her, pulling at their sleeves, and with their hands held high above her head, she inevitably approached him, her face almost touching his chest.
The jade qilin stiffened his neck a little nervously to prevent himself from approaching him, but when he raised his eyes, he could still see his perfect chin and gently pursed lips, and his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate.
The jade qilin asked embarrassedly, "Have you taken it off?" β
"What's the hurry? I'm working on it. The gold ingots replied impatiently. In fact, he didn't mean to untie his sleeves at all, he held it high with one hand, and hugged the jade unicorn with the other hand to let her lean on his chest, and the two seemed to "hug" each other.
He looked down at the face of the jade unicorn, his heart was as sweet as honey, but his mouth was unforgiving: "This hairpin is really ugly, why are you still so bad in taste with me all day long?" β
As soon as the jade unicorn heard this, even if he was in a hurry, he ripped off the hairpin and threw it into the arms of the gold ingot: "I wear mine, you don't care if I look good!" With that, he turned around and left.
The gold ingots stood stunned and motionless, until a cool breeze blew and he shuddered before he came back to his senses.
The jade qilin didn't know what to say at all, just now she tore off the hairpin, and the moment a wisp of green silk slipped off, it was deeply engraved in the heart of the young master Jin. (To be continued......)
