Chapter 004: Picking Peaches

In the garden of red flowers and willows, a carved hexagonal pavilion is located among a field of flowers and trees. The orange-red flowers are blooming brilliantly, and the single flowers look ordinary, far less than the peony, peony, orchid, plum blossoms, etc., but a large cluster of flowers blooms together lively, but it is an unusually warm beauty, and this beauty can also move people's heartstrings.

In the pavilion, Liu Mingru was dressed in a water-blue embroidered twig flower breast-length skirt, covered with a silver-veined silk smock, and her long hair like ink clouds was only loosely pulled, and there was no hairpin between the hairpins. She sat on the stone bench and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate with a little dissatisfaction.

Behind her, a rather beautiful maid was holding a fan to cool her down. Another maid was standing outside the pavilion, also looking in the direction of the courtyard gate. They wore double buns, and a small cluster of orange-red flowers was inserted between the two buns, which made their faces more pink and white.

On the table was a small bamboo basket and a knife.

"Eldest Miss, Third Miss is here."

Liu Mingru showed a smile with a little expectation, "Xia Liang, tell her to come quickly." ”

The maid who was standing outside the pavilion and named Xia Liang raised her voice, put her hands to her mouth, and shouted at the person who came over there: "Miss, you go faster, but we are in a hurry!" ”

Rao Xuekong frowned when she heard this, but as soon as she heard the words of Lancao, she came out, this Miss Liu is in a hurry, it's none of her business, who let her live in Ximo Courtyard so far away and so remote? Who made this Miss Liu's garden so big? As they walked all the way, the bluegrass was sweating, and they were breathing slightly.

And walking a long distance also made Rao Xuekong discover a very strange thing, it stands to reason that her body is also weak, but the blue grass is panting, but she is calm. Her stamina and stamina are as good as ever. Could it be that physical strength also follows the soul?

When she saw the Lingxiao flower in front of her, she sighed even more in her heart. This Miss Liu's garden is not only large, but also amazing.

Seeing the girl in the pavilion, Rao Xuekong took a look at it. The girl in front of her has a slightly round face, slender eyes, plump lips, and a small mole in the upper right corner of her lips, but you can't see it if you don't look closely. The figure is plump, although he is fifteen years old, but his body seems to be mature enough, and this appearance looks like the elders.

Because he didn't know what to call her, Rao Xuekong was silent, ready to wait for her to attack. Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, Liu Mingru pursed her lips and said, "Isn't the third sister angry with me?" Why don't you even call a big sister? ”

She, a twenty-three-year-old woman, is going to call a fifteen-year-old girl big sister one day.

Rao Xuekong sighed in her heart, no matter what, is she using this body now? Then you have to take the responsibility of the owner of this body, and you still have to call it. After doing a good job of psychological construction, she called out lightly: "Big sister." ”

Liu Mingru said: "Hmm." Are your injuries healed? ”

If you don't know if she's healed, why send her so far? It's hypocritical. But she still had to act along, "It's almost good." ”

Liu Mingru nodded comfortingly and said: "The third sister has passed this time, when she has a long memory, she must not steal anything in the future, if you want anything, tell me or my mother, my mother and I are not the kind of people who are stingy or harsh to concubines, can the third sister remember?" ”

Rao Xuekong secretly rolled her eyes, this is only a fifteen-year-old girl, where did she come from so many old-fashioned words? Is this what is characteristic of antiquity? As long as she is in this body for a day, she will naturally not steal, she is a policeman, how can she be a thief!

"The third sister is deaf?" Seeing that Rao Xuekong didn't answer for a long time, Liu Mingru was angry in his heart.

Rao Xuekong had no choice but to respond: "Remember." ”

Liu Mingru waved his thin sleeves impatiently, and said, "I suddenly want to eat peaches today, but my two rough maids in Zhuohua Courtyard are unfortunately sick, so I bother the third sister to pick a few for me, is the third sister willing?" ”

Isn't there a mother-in-law or something when the rough maid is sick? Besides, the two maids in front of her have no hands? There are no other subordinates in the house? I have to ask her, the third lady, to pick peaches.

"Okay." Rao Xuekong didn't want to worry about her, and she also wanted to go to the peach forest to see, it was better than staying in her Ximo Courtyard. With Rao Xuekong's character, he naturally doesn't think about anything, tries not to see anyone, and lowers his sense of existence to seek temporary safety, so that although the possibility of revealing flaws will be much lower, but he can't know much about everything in this mansion, and he can't see anything other than that.

It can be said that although encountering such a strange thing is unfamiliar here, Rao Xuekong has never been afraid.

Xia Liang handed the basket to Rao Xuekong, Rao Xuekong reached out to take it, and saw the thick disdain in her eyes.

"Bluegrass, go, go pick peaches."

When Liu Mingru heard this, he immediately added: "The third sister can't let the bluegrass be picked, the bluegrass is still a child." ”

The bluegrass head is buried even lower.

"Got it." Rao Xuekong naturally wouldn't ask Lancao to do it, she didn't want Lancao to lead the way, because she didn't know where Taoyuan was.

"Xia Liang, you follow and take a look, come back and tell me about Liu Yunwei's embarrassment, otherwise this day will be boring."

"Yes, Miss." Xia Liangfu was blessed for a while, and followed Rao Xuekong and them from a distance.

Liu Mingru pursed her lips and smiled. Today, she has to make Liu Yunwei ugly.

said that Rao Xuekong followed Lancao out of Zhuohua Courtyard, and he walked a long way. Fortunately, the scenery in this house is extremely beautiful, and it seems that Rao Xuekong is full of interest along the way. Every time she saw a yard, she would skillfully cover the bluegrass, and she would figure out a lot of places.

Seeing the door in front of him, which was obviously stronger and heavier than the other courtyard gates, Rao Xuekong secretly thought, this is the back door of the house, right?

Sure enough, I heard Lancao say: "The peaches are open in the back mountain, which is more secluded than the Ximo Courtyard, although the back mountain is also from Liufu, but after all, it is out of the house." Fortunately, the peach tree is now the fruiting period, three months ago, when the peach blossoms are blooming, the lord and the lady like to invite the sons and ladies of each family to come to enjoy the flowers, there are often outsiders, at that time if the third lady comes out, it is easy to collide. ”

Exiting the courtyard is a stone path that leads to a small hill two meters away.

The master and servant went up the mountain and walked for a while, and then they saw a peach forest of small and small sizes.

Rao Xuekong only glanced at it a few times and felt that something was wrong, those peach trees were not short, and the fruits below were all picked, and only a few peaches were left on each peach tree!

The blue grass soon found out, and immediately covered her mouth and shouted: "This, how can the third lady pick it?" ”
