Volume I: Ancient. Dream Frontier Chapter 37 Misunderstanding¹
It was late afternoon, the sky was still gloomy, gray clouds, lively and lovely running around, one moment to the east, the other to the west.
The cold wind blew through the courtyard of the Su family, and the bare branches on the trees shook slightly.
The green bamboo outside the Qingfeng Pavilion has survived the cold winter, and the cold wind is blowing, clapping his hands happily, showing his posture.
"Girl, the second girl of the Wang family is here, she went to the lady's courtyard, I heard that it seems to be looking for you."
Xu Yue was sighing and lying on the desk, when she heard someone walking in from outside the door, she raised her eyes and saw that it was Youlan, so she sat up straight and lazily, and listened to Youlan say to her.
"Huh? How did she get here? When Xu Yu heard that it was Wang Zhi'er coming, he stood up in surprise and asked Youlan.
"Oh! It wasn't her own that came, but several girls from the Wang family came. Youlan hurriedly explained.
"Oh! Who did you listen to say, she came to me, impossible, just like the second lady last time, how could she let her be with me. As he spoke, he lay down on the table boredly.
"Yes! I was also scared the day before yesterday, and the second lady said that she would change her face, and I didn't know how to offend her. Oh! Girl, the second girl is really looking for you, just now the second girl's maid, the little girl asked you! Youlan walked up to Promise, shook Promise and said.
"Yes! Got it. Xu Promise straightened up, looked at the book she placed on the table, and replied flatly.
"Girl, what's wrong with you, hurry up and tidy up, go see Miss Wang's second girl!" Youlan looked at Xu Yue and read the book again, and said in a hurry.
"Oops! What's the hurry, if she looks for me, she'll come by herself in a while, I don't want to go to the front yard. Promise flipped through the book in front of him and replied casually.
"Girl, you're still angry with the third girl." Youlan looked down at Xu Promise and asked in some surprise.
Promise: "No, I forgot about it, she!" It's just that he doesn't have any heart, and he can say whatever he wants. ”
Youlan: "Girl, you are really generous, that day, we just looked at the face of the second lady Wang, returned to the old lady Wang's house, and were told by the third girl, and then the lady took us back." Ay! ”
As soon as Youlan's words fell, Mama Qiu's voice came from outside the door.
"Miss Wang, slow down. On this bluestone slab, it has not yet thawed, and the road is a little slippery. ”
When Youlan heard that it was Miss Wang who was attracted by Mama Qiu, her eyes widened in fright, and she stared at the promise.
"Don't worry, she didn't hear it." Xu Promise got up slowly, walked to Youlan's side, and whispered in her ear.
Xu Yue looked at Youlan and relieved himself, and reminded: "Don't go quickly, prepare some refreshments." ”
"Oh! Yes, the slave and the maid will go. Youlan replied hurriedly.
Mama Qiu opened the door curtain with a smile and said to Xu Nuo, "Girl, the second girl of the Wang family has come to see you." ”
"Huh! Come in, come in. Xu Yu listened to what Mama Qiu said, greeted her affectionately, but questioned in his heart that I was not sick again, and it was like saying that I was about to die, and she came to see me for the last time.
"Sister, I'm bothered a lot today." Wang Zhi'er walked up to Xu Promise and said softly.
"Don't bother, don't bother, how can you say it's bother! If my sister can come, that's what looks like me. Promise returned the salute to everyone.
"Youlan, hurry up and serve tea, Mama Qiu, go get some charcoal!" Xu Yu shouted to Youlan upstairs, and then commanded Mama Qiu.
"Girl, sit downstairs, or go upstairs and sit." Youlan leaned on the railing and asked.
"Oh! I haven't asked my sister yet, are we going upstairs or downstairs! Xu Yu listened to Youlan and asked with a slight smile.
Wang Zhi'er thought for a while and responded: "Huh? Kindness! So there it is! I told them that I had come to ask you for a book, and that I would be back in a moment. ”
Xu Promise looked at Wang Zhi'er suspiciously, pointed to the bookshelf behind him, and said politely: "Want a book?" What kind of book does my sister want? There are a lot of books here. ”
Wang Zhi'er explained: "Oops! No, when I came, the little boy gave me the way I wanted, saying that you took the book from me the day before yesterday, and I came to pick up the book, so that I would have an excuse to come to you. ”
Xu Yu was amused by what she said and smiled: "My sister wants to come to me, just come, and I still need to make excuses." Hehe! ”
After the promise was finished, looking at Wang Zhi'er, who was shy about to answer, she knew why she came to her, and she needed an excuse, because among them, except for Wang Zhi'er and Su Rou, they still treated her as before, not cold, and the others didn't like her a little, and she also felt that Chen Jing didn't seem to like her very much these days.
Xu Yu was stunned for a while, pulled Wang Zhi'er to sit on the small couch, and asked with a smile: "Sister, sit down!" Tell me what is important about you going to such great lengths to find me today. ”
"It's nothing, it's just what you said about Cousin Su's ability to play the piano." Wang Zhi'er lowered her head shyly and said softly.
"Oh, that's what you're talking about! Look at how ashamed you are, I thought something was going on. Before he could speak, Wang Zhi'er, who blushed first, quipped.
Wang Zhi'er gently retreated and promised, and explained shyly: "Sister, don't laugh, I heard my father say this morning that the frontier won the battle, General Li Shirui and Li entered the Beijing Division today, everyone went to greet them, the soldiers who returned triumphantly, and the people in the Guozi Prison also took a half-day vacation, so I came to take a look, did Brother Su come back." ”
"Oh! Youlan, has the eldest prince returned? Xu Promise nodded, turned his head and asked Youlan who was standing on the side.
"Back to the girl, it seems that the son has returned." Youlan replied respectfully.
"Exactly! My sister and Kaguya's brother are really fated! When he returns, you find it. Hehe! Xu Promise covered his mouth and joked with a smile.
Xu Yu looked at Wang Zhi'er's face, which became more and more red, like a ripe apple, cleared his throat and said, "Okay, don't make fun of my sister, let's go quickly!" Aren't you going back in a minute?"
"Eun!" Wang Zhi'er nodded lightly in response to the promise.
But after a while, Xu Promise pulled Wang Zhi'er, who answered shyly, and came to the outer courtyard where Suning lived.
"Brother Kaguya is here, my sister wants to ask my brother about something." Promise walked to the door of the house and shouted into the house.
"Cousin, the son is in the house! Second cousin, you're here too, please, please. Xiyue opened the curtain and said to Xu Nuo, and found that Wang Zhi'er was also there, so she hurriedly said.
"Huh? Xiyue, who came. Suning heard Xiyue's words and asked in the room suspiciously.
"Brother, it's me and Sister Zhi'er who have something to ask you." Xu Yue smiled and pulled Wang Zhi'er into the room, and said to Su Ningke, who was standing in front of the desk.
"Oh! It turned out to be two younger sisters, please come in. Suning said with a salute.
"Brother Kaguya." Wang Zhi'er replied with a soft and weak salutation.
"Oops! Sister, don't be restrained, last time I was here with my brother, I learned the piano for a few days! My brother's temper is much better than that of Mr. Teaching. ”
Xu Yu looked at Wang Zhi'er's face and was a little red, so he said directly to Suningke: "Brother, we are here today to let you teach us a tune, and I and Sister Zhi'er are a little confused about this score." ”
Xu Promise said, looked at Wang Zhi'er again and said, "Sister, take out your score and show it to Brother Kaguya." ”
"Give."
Wang Zhi'er turned around, took the score from the maid's hand, and handed it to the promise.
"Hee-hee! My brother will take a look at it first, and then he will teach us, okay. Xu said and handed the book to Suningke.
"Okay, sisters, sit down for a while, I'll take a look first." Su Ningke said to them, then turned to Xiyue who was standing on the side and said, "Xiyue, you go and bring some hot tea and pastries." ”
"Yes, Childe."
Xiyue responded, turned around and walked out of the room, promised to pull Wang Zhi'er to sit on the stool in the hall, looked at Suning Ke and smiled at them, and then sat at the desk and looked at the piano score seriously.
Xiyue held the tea tray, opened the door curtain, walked in, and said to the two of them, "Two girls, please use it." ”
"There is labor." Xu Yu just smiled and nodded, and Wang Zhi'er said softly to Xiyue.
But after a while, Su Ningke read the score, looked up at them and smiled: "Sister, teach now, or wait?" ”
"Huh? Teach now! Xu Promise was talking to Wang Zhi'er, and when he heard Su Ningke's voice, he subconsciously turned his head, smiled and thought about it.
"You, which of you learns first?" Suning Ke took the sheet music, walked up to them, and asked suspiciously.
"Sister Eldest Grandson, let's learn first! She's learned, let her teach me!" Wang Zhi'er said shyly.
"Huh? Then, then I'll learn first! Xu Promise looked at Wang Zhi'er suspiciously, looked at her slightly red face, and said with some hesitation.
After the promise was finished, she saw Xiyue bring out a guqin from the inner room, and she hurriedly packed up the refreshments on the table and handed them to Youlan.
Shigetsu walked over to the table and gently placed the piano on the table.
"Two sisters, please watch me play first." Suning walked up to the piano, stood up straight, and said softly to them.
After a song, Suning looked at the corners of the guqin's mouth slightly hooked, raised his eyes and smiled and said to them: "Sister, this song is really good!" ”
Xu Promise looked at Wang Zhi'er puzzled, and asked suspiciously, "Brother, where is this song good?" Sister brought it, I haven't seen it yet! ”
"Huh! After my sister learns it, she will be able to understand it. Suning Ning looked at the promise and planned to sell Guan Zi said.
After a while, Su Ningke looked at the promise that was staring at him blankly, and said with some doubts in his heart, why couldn't he understand what he said? I'm not saying it's easy! He walked quickly behind Xu Promise, raised his hand and held Xu Promise's hand, Xu Promise was stunned for a moment, Suning didn't pay attention to Xu Promise's reaction, held her hand, and bounced it gently.
Wang Zhi'er stared and looked straight at her, Youlan and Xiyue just wanted to open their mouths to remind, but they saw Su Ningke holding the hand of the promise and playing the piano, they closed their mouths and looked at Suning Ke and the promise quietly.
After playing for a while, Suning Ke stopped and asked, "Sister, do you understand now?" ”
Xu Promise nestled in Suning Ke's arms, nodded obediently, Suning glanced at Xu Promise, and was about to start playing the piano again, but saw Su Qi and Wang Ling'er lift the curtain and walk in.
When they came in, they were still smiling, and when they saw Suning holding the promise, they were instantly stunned in place.
