Chapter 5

Lin Wangge lay on the bamboo mat and couldn't sleep, only a few of the light velvet quilts were slightly rolled up on her legs, and most of the quilts were piled up next to the curtains. After a while, Lin Wangge really didn't feel sleepy, so he simply got up and groped his way to the cupboard by the faint light.

With a squeak, Lin Elegy took out a small lantern from the cupboard, and between the light and shadow, the lantern had been lit.

Lin Elegy carried the lantern and walked in the deep corridor, the wind was quiet, the shadows of the trees were fluttering, and the only lantern was blooming warmly. Da da da, it is the sound of slippers stepping on the blue and white stone slabs, it is not very quiet, and the sound of cicadas on summer nights is one after another, spreading in the deep twilight.

I was about to arrive at Lin Bangyang's house, but I saw that the lights in the house had not been extinguished, and they were smeared on the window pane, but Lin Wangge's shadow was clearly described.

It's my brother and Nanjun, why are they arguing so late? Lin Wangge thought in his heart and wanted to go forward to open Lin Bangyang's door, but he felt that he was really dressed a little thin at this time, and saw that Nanjun was a little bad, so he gave up and turned back.

Turning to the small courtyard, I saw the starry fireflies circling around a vat of white gardenias, so I stepped forward, and the rich fragrance of gardenias came in bursts, Lin Elegy put down the lantern in his hand, and unconsciously exhaled deeply, wanting to pour the sweet floral fragrance greedily into his body.

Fireflies, these little things, seem to use their minds in the swaggering light, so they are far less sharp than other flying insects, Lin Elegy just pounced on his hands, and there was a firefly trapped in the palm of his hand, and the fireflies fluttering in his hands were like the light and fire scattered by meteors in the sky, desperately struggling not to become lonely ashes, and then let go of his hands, letting them wander in the night around him.

Time passed quietly, the night was dark, sleepiness gradually climbed up Lin Elegy's eyes, swaying in the winding corridor, finally, Lin Elegy returned to his bedroom, lying on the bamboo mat, easily fell asleep.

In the early morning of the second day, Lin Elegy got up early, and before the tassel entered the door, he was already sitting in front of the dresser and pouring up the rouge box on the table. The rouge box is wrapped with delicate cloisonné flowers, and the cloisonné enamel plum pattern style looks extremely elegant and classical.

"Miss, you're already up, and the tassel will dress you up right away." Tassel pushed open the wooden door and walked in, and saw Lin Bang Singer holding a rouge box, "Young Master Nanjun is leaving this morning, is Miss going to put on the rouge and then go to the dock to see him off?" ”

"Well, Tassel, you can roll up my braids today, I want to look fresh." Lin Elegy was a little embarrassed, still fiddling with the rouge box with his head down.

After washing the face with water, apply alabaster cream on the face, and the delicate fragrance powder perfectly fits the skin, making Lin Elegy's cheeks a little red, glamorous and vulgar, elegant and qualitative.

Lin Elegy changed into a light blue satin skirt, which was hooked with gold-woven embroidery, and the arc-shaped design with a slightly cinched waist made Lin Elegy's figure more slender. Although the heavens and the earth were still sleepy, the dew on the green plants was dripping with flowing golden light, and when the corner passed, the voices of Gu Nanjun and Han Leng came.

"Han Leng, you go home, we are not suitable, and besides, you have been out for so long, and the family should be worried." Gu Nanjun was a little impatient, but he still restrained the annoyance in his heart.

Han Leng wanted to get closer to Gu Nanjun and dragged Gu Nanjun's arm into his arms from time to time: "Nanjun, I like you, can you take me home?" You take me home, let's go see Dad, Dad, he will like me, I will be a good daughter-in-law, I will cook for you, wash your clothes, I will feed you water when you are thirsty, and I will beat your legs when you are tired. Nanjun, can you take me away? ”

"You're enough." Gu Nanjun struggled to break free of Han Leng's hand.

It was just wishful thinking but wanted to be liked by both parties, and two people who were not compatible were pushing and shoving in the corridor like this, and when they saw Lin Elegy's figure, Han Leng barely restrained himself.

"Elegy, morning." Gu Nanjun blushed and smiled awkwardly, wanting to say something to explain but couldn't say it for a while.

"Morning, Nan-kun." Lin Elegy just wanted to leave early, and greeted him indiscriminately.

Han Leng looked at the two of them like this, and saw that Lin Elegy's mouth was a little sad and tilted to the left, so he stopped making a sound.

The four of them went to the main hall together, and at this time, Master Lin, Lin Bangyang, and Lin Bangtang were already sitting at the table. After everyone finished breakfast, Gu Nanjun was about to say goodbye: "Uncle Lin, Nanjun has been away from home for several years, this time I came to visit Uncle Lin's house, I want to come to my father at home and I look forward to it, Nanjun really wants to see his father soon, he will leave home today, if he has the opportunity to come to the house to have a good time." ”

"Then Nanjun will also say hello to Master Gu for me when he goes home." Master Lin helped up Gu Nanjun, who was doing tricks, and a light of love was projected at his moment.

Lin Bangyang, Lin Wangge and his party sent Gu Nanjun and Han Leng to the dock, where the trees were verdant, and the awning boats were shuttling back and forth on the waterway between the white walls and black tiles.

"Young Master, where are you going?" Old people rowing boats come to solicit business.

"The Gu family in the east of the city, the old man only needs to send me and this young lady to Shungeng Wharf." Gu Nanjun stood on the shore, although he was condescending, his words were respectful.

"Okay, young master, miss, please come on board." The boatman slid his oars to the shore, the clear water of the lake was squeezed out of a few flowing ripples, and the two semi-circular tents woven of bamboo were painted black, and two rows of bamboo chairs were placed in between, which could probably seat three or four or five people.

Gu Nanjun turned his eyes to Lin Elegy, leaned closer and said, "Elegy, wait for me, my father will arrange me to work in the big pharmacy in the west of the city." ”

Lin Elegy looked at Gu Nanjun, the unhappiness just now gradually dissipated, she still wanted to pretend to be angry, but the dimples on her cheeks faintly appeared, she really liked what Gu Nanjun said, so she simply grinned: "I'll wait for you to come back." ”

Gu Nanjun saw that Lin Elegy was happy, so he turned around and got on the boat with confidence, stood staggered and steady, and took Han Leng into the boat again.

"Goodbye, Nanjun." Lin Bangyang stood behind Lin Wangge and waved his arms.

"Goodbye, Bangyang, Elegy." Gu Nanjun stood up and said goodbye, leaving Han Leng alone with a lonely face.

Lin Wangge didn't say goodbye, and the farewell hand was only raised to his neck, watching Gu Nanjun's figure gradually become smaller and blurred, and a hot current suddenly surged into his heart: "Nanjun, I'll wait for you to come back." Lin Elegy squatted down and buried her head in her crossed arms, the warm summer breeze gently caressed her messy curls, and Lin Elegy would not say goodbye, because she felt that goodbye was never goodbye.

"Elegy, let's go, you forgot, you have to go to the Xia family's tea garden today." Lin Bangyang stepped forward and helped Lin Wangge up.

Lin Wangge was already crying and red-eyed, and followed Lin Wangyang back home in a trance.

"Elegy, you're back, I heard Uncle Lin say that you went to the dock to send the young master of the Gu family." A bright-looking woman ran out of the main hall, it was Xia Mo. Although Xia Mo is only one year old in the forest elegy, she has already had a mature charm between her eyebrows and eyes, and I saw that the trend of her eyebrows and eyes was different from everyone else, a pair of Danfeng eyes hooked inside and hanging outside, extending to the vicinity of the temples, all in one go. Between the closures, the brilliance shines. With the addition of a slightly offensive hooked nose and a short and pointed mouth, the whole person looks very attractive and charming.

"Xia Mo, you're here." Lin Elegy's mood had calmed down, and he greeted Xia Mo, "This is a handkerchief for you, and on it is the peony you like, is it good-looking?" ”

"It's so pretty, I love it." Xia Mo stretched out her hand and took it, her fingernails were painted with dazzling purple nail polish, which matched a well-cut and elegant cheongsam.

"Hello Miss Xia." Lin Bangyang also politely stepped forward to greet Xia Mo.

"Is it the elder brother of the Lin family? Do you remember me? The corners of Xia Mo's mouth rose up, and light flowed out of his eyes.

"Remember, remember." Lin Bangyang looked a little dazzled by the brilliance.
