Chapter Seventy-One: Building an Earthen Kiln
"White Night, go and call Twilight." Qi Lichen cut a few bamboo branches outside the courtyard and inserted them in a vase, and said with great interest.
"Back to the pavilion master, Miss Xi said that she can't be empty, and she will see you again." After a tea time, Bai Ye came back from Xi Duyun's side and replied.
The next day, Qi Lichen painted a picture of enjoying flowers in the snow at dusk: "White night, go and invite Duyun to come, just say that I asked her to come to watch the painting." ”
After a while, Bai Ye rushed back from Xi Duyun's side, and his breath was steady and returned to Qi Lichen: "The girl said that she was busy, let the son change the day." ”
Qi Lichen frowned slightly, nodded, let Bai Ye go down, looked at the painting that was spread on the table and dried the ink, and put the painting away with an expressionless face. For several days, Qi Lichen didn't see Xi Duyun, Mo said people, and he didn't see a shadow.
The dignified Qingyu Pavilion Master, only others have always looked forward to seeing him, where is the reason why he is looking forward to seeing others!
"White Night." Bai Ye sat under the porch and wiped his sword, and Qi Lichen's death call sounded again in the room. Bai Ye's eyes were dark, so he had to get up and answer, and as expected, Qi Lichen ordered him to invite someone again.
"The Spring Festival is approaching, and Duyun is still wearing old clothes, so I asked Buzhuang to make two new clothes, and I also bought a few beaded hairpin jewelry from Baibao Pavilion and asked her to come and try it." Qi Lichen calmly traced Qingzhu's figure on the rice paper, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Bai Ye wanted to sigh, but he didn't dare to sigh, he replied sullenly and withdrew, this time Bai Ye went for a long time, and half a pillar of incense came back.
"How?" Bai Ye only returned to the Moon Cave Gate, Qi Lichen didn't raise his head, and when he heard the movement, he didn't wait for anyone to come in and asked.
"The girl said that there are still a lot of clothes in the closet, and the son doesn't have to bother with these things, she has her own silver taels to buy ......"
"Click!"
Before Bai Ye finished speaking, there was a sound of the pen breaking in the room, Bai Ye pursed his lips tightly, he should let Bai Bing be on an errand today.
"Xi Duyun! You're good now! I can't ask you to see you, and I have to come here in person to see your honor, right? Qi Lichen came to Xi Duyun's courtyard angrily, and as soon as he entered, he smelled a puff of firewood.
Xi Duyun's gray face came out from behind the earthen kiln, took the handkerchief and wiped his face, and quickly walked up to Qi Lichen and saluted: "Childe, this is tormenting me, saying such things, I can't leave, otherwise I will run to Childe's side non-stop." ”
Xi Duyun blinked at Qi Lichen with big innocent eyes, and was stunned to see that Qi Lichen felt that he had done something wrong.
"Xi Duyun, shut up for me! See people talk about people, and talk about ghosts! I came angrily, not because I was going to be angry and said that I didn't have these things, I had people come to invite you a few times, and you didn't see a single one. ”
Qi Lichen calmed down and glared at Xi Duyun angrily. He looked like he couldn't afford to lose to Xi Duyun, and Xi Duyun couldn't help but laugh when he saw it. Xi Duyun threw out the veil and pretended to wipe away the non-existent tears on her face.
"This is Childe, you're wrong, who of you hasn't been busy with your career, Childe is busy, isn't it not for many days?" Xi Duyun said that Qi Lichen was stunned, her acting skills were at the peak, and Bai Bing and the others quietly rolled their eyes.
Taking advantage of Qi Lichen's lack of reaction, Xi Duyun took advantage of the victory to chase down and said, "Did I ever complain about my son at that time? ”
When Xi Duyun pretended to be pretending, her nails accidentally scratched her eyeballs, and her eyes were sore, and she really shed tears.
Seeing that her eyes were red, thinking that she was really crying, Qi Lichen stood in place at a loss, Xi Duiyun's eyes became more and more sour, and the tears couldn't be stopped.
"Childe is looking at me upset? I'm going to go away. Xi Duyun shook the handkerchief very pretentiously, lifted the hem of her skirt and ran away with small steps, not forgetting to look at Qi Lichen three times when she ran.
Qi Lichen was taken seriously by Xi Duyun's bluffing, and chased after him with a look on his face: "Yun'er, I didn't mean that!" ”
On the side of the wall, Bai Bing and the others looked at the mud they were holding in their hands, and watched them run away in amazement, Bai Bing was speechless for a while, and said with a complicated expression: "Pavilion Master, isn't Mo stunned?" Miss Xi's despicable acting skills are believed by the pavilion master. ”
Bai Qi was also at a loss, stunned for a moment and continued to build the earth kiln. Cuiyun and Cuixin came to gossip, and got together to complain: "In the world, girls dare to make a mistake in front of their son, I used to think it was ......"
Cui Xin cautiously looked left and right, and forcibly pulled the white horse together: "I thought that the pavilion master would be a pair with Miss Luo." ”
When Xi Duyun didn't appear back then, Luo Qing'er and Qi Lichen were inseparable, and everyone in Qingyu Pavilion thought that they would become a couple.
"At that time, everyone in the cabinet talked about this matter, but I felt that the pavilion master and Miss Qing'er seemed to be close, but in fact there was no love between men and women."
Cuiyun rubbed her chin and disagreed with Cuixin's words. Qi Lichen is a cold person, and he cares about Luo Qing'er, but out of the affection of the old man, Qi Lichen can only look at Xi Duyun, and there is affection in his eyes.
Bai Qi's brick-laying hand paused for a moment, and his good-looking brows furrowed: "Speaking of Qing'er, I remember that she is coming to the house today." ”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked, Bai Bing and the others looked at Bai Qi in horror, and said in unison: "What? ”
Speaking of Xi Duyun's side, Xi Duyun ran back to the house with a smile, sat down on the table, heard Qi Lichen's movement catching up, sorted out his expression, and fell on the table to "sob".
"Yun'er, you really killed me, can't I apologize to you? Don't cry. Qi Lichen caught up, and saw Xi Duyun crying there, his thin shoulders trembling, pitifully tight.
Xi Duyun hid his face and smiled smugly, Qi Lichen, Qi Lichen, you also have today, see if I don't play a good trick on you.
"Aren't you very ...... majestic" Qi Lichen put his hand on Xi Duiyun's shoulder, Xi Duiyun pretentiously shook off Qi Lichen's hand, and was just about to "scold", but the action was too big, and he knocked down the script on the table, and the script fell to the ground and opened two pages.
Their eyes fell on the pages of the open book, and Xi Duyun's pupils suddenly widened, and he slammed to the ground to cover the book.
Silently closing the book, things happened too fast, Xi Duyun looked up at Qi Lichen, showing an embarrassed smile.
The book borrowed from Cuixin, Xi Duyun only read one, and the other Xi Duyun did not read it. She is casual, and the books are all placed directly on the table, without even looking through them.
It wasn't until the book was knocked down and opened just now that Xi Duyun remembered what Cui Xin said when she borrowed the book, there are many books that she treasures, and she doesn't borrow them from others, that's why! Those words are mixed with spring palace pictures!
Qi Lichen clasped his hands around his chest and looked at Xi Duyun with a sneer. Xi Duyun put the book on the bed behind him and smiled, "I think I can explain this matter." ”
"Explain what? It's nothing more than that this book was borrowed from Cui Xin, and you don't know it. Qi Lichen stared at her with eyes that saw through Xi Duyun's thoughts, Xi Duyun's shoulders shrank a little more, and he forgot to squeeze his tears.
"Haha, Childe is aware of everything, I haven't started reading these books yet, so I'm really wronged." I didn't have any of these books I had read, and I knew that Cuixin was talking about such "good things", so Xi Duyun hid it when she took it back.
"Oh...... In this way, it seems that you are also wronged by pretending to cry and deceiving my son? Qi Lichen's phoenix eyes smiled like two crescents, but Xi Duyun didn't feel gentle at all, as if the back of the neck of a kitten who had made a mistake was being lifted.
Xi Duyun wiped his face, the tears on his face had dried, and there was still a little crying.
"Hmm...... Childe, are you bored? How about we take a look at the book together? ”
Qi Lichen: "Huh? ”
