Chapter 139, Dreaming of Juvenile Matters in the Dead of Night (2)
Liu Er saw that his plain white face was covered with rain and his hair was still dripping, so he handed over his handkerchief and said gently, "Childe, wipe it." ”
Guiyue said "thank you", took the handkerchief, but did not wipe her face, but opened the piano in the cloth bag, wiped it carefully, her expression was serious and pious, her long eyelashes were lowered, her face was almost transparent, Liu Er was stunned, Gui Yue finished wiping the piano, raised her head, and collided with Liu Er's sight, Liu Yue's little face was red, and she didn't know where to look at the corner of her clothes, Gui Yue sneered and laughed, this smile was like the sun in winter, with three or two points of warmth, he said: "This handkerchief is now returned to you, Or will I wait for the despicable person to go back and wash it before returning it to you? ”
Liu Er hesitated: "Whatever, whatever." ”
Guiyue folded the veil carefully and said, "In that case, the contemptible person should return it to the girl in a few days, I wonder if you can tell the girl her name?" ”
"Liu'er, Shangshu Mansion Cen Family Cen Liu'er." Liu Er lowered her head and said, her face in the hat was still red.
Guiyue nodded, and the smile on her face gradually faded, "It turned out to be the young lady of Shangshu Mansion." ”
"Where's Childe?"
"Huh?"
"What's Childe's name?"
"Rosemoon."
Liu Er raised her head, "Rosemoon? What a strange name. ”
Rosemoon smiled, revealing a small tiger tooth that made him look more like a child, and he said, "Magnificent Moon, the contemptible was born on the night of the blood moon. ”
"I see."
Guiyue wrapped the piano again and continued: "Because it was born on the night of the blood moon, the contemptible man was regarded as an ominous symbol, and the contemptible father wanted to strangle the contemptible person to death, and it was the contemptible mother's mother who desperately saved the contemptible and sent the contemptuous person out. ”
Liu Er opened his mouth to say something to comfort him, but he didn't seem to be sad.
"Ah, the rain has stopped." Guiyue stood up, took two steps and stopped, turned around, took out a small thing from her sleeve, and stuffed it into Liu'er's hand, Liu'er looked down, and in her hand was a small sitting lotus, and the petals were stretched out and lifelike.
"This is a thank you gift, goodbye." Guiyue left the pavilion with brisk steps, and after a while, the carriage of Shangshufu arrived late and picked up Liu Er and Xiaoman.
A few days later, Guiyue really came to look for her, but she came in over the wall, and saw Liu Er, who was not wearing a hat and not applying powder, sitting in the courtyard, his eyes flashed with amazement, but he tilted his head and asked her, "Have we met?" Before the last time? ”
Liu Er nodded and said with a smile: "I have indeed seen it, at Princess Xin'an's poetry meeting." ”
Guiyue showed a suddenly realized expression, "Are you the girl sitting in the curtain?" When the contemptible person looked over, you immediately lowered the curtain, and the contemptible person thought that he had scared you. ”
"That's not the case," Liu Er shook her head, "Last time, why did you laugh at my sister's poems?" ”
Guiyue snorted lightly and said, "The eldest lady of the Cen Mansion is famous, and she is admired by contemptible people, but it is not enough. ”
Liu Er was a little annoyed when she heard this, and said, "How can you see it? ”
"It's just a pile of flowery rhetoric, without depth, and with all due respect, as soon as you hear these poems, you know that the poet hasn't gone out much, but just picked up the wisdom of his predecessors."
Guiyue's words were unceremoniously, Liu Er's self-esteem was frustrated, and her face turned pale, but Guiyue changed her words and said: "But it's not undesirable, your sister is exquisite, and the metaphor and rhetoric are used very well." ”
Liu Er pursed her lips and snorted: "What if the person who wrote the poem is not my sister, but me?" ”
Guiyue was stunned for a moment with her hand holding the handkerchief, and her water-cutting eyes stared at Liu'er, "You are the one who wrote the poem?" ”
Liu Er nodded, and Guiyue's fair face was immediately dyed with a layer of redness, saying in front of the girl that other people's poems could not be successful, no matter how much she said it, it was too rude.
"Princesse Guiyue's evaluation is very pertinent, and Liu Er has been taught."
Guiyue bowed her head and apologized: "Contemptible people are just talking nonsense, girls don't have to take it seriously." ”
Liu Er smiled and said, "You don't have to call yourself despicable, I'm tired of listening to it." ”
Guiyue raised her eyes, a peach blossom just fell, falling between Liu'er's black hair, adding a bit of color, Guiyue was stunned, reached out to brush the flowers on her head, Liu'er lowered her head, Guiyue took the peach blossom in the palm of her hand, looked down for a moment, and said with a smile: "Although the peach blossoms are beautiful, I think the girl and the pear blossom are more compatible." ”
He took two steps back, looked up at the sky, and said, "It's not early, I should go back." ”
"Wait." Liu Er stopped him, "Will we meet again in the future?" ”
"Yes." Rosetsuki turned around and rubbed her hair.
Not long after this separation, Guiyue was summoned by the emperor to enter the palace and became the royal luthier, Guiyue usually eats in her own small courtyard, but since Guiyue entered the palace, she will eat with Master Cen and Mrs. Cen in order to find out the news of Guiyue.
I heard that Guiyue was the youngest violinist in the palace, and he was very favored by the emperor, and the emperor connived at him, so he was pampered and arrogant, openly disobeying the holy order, arrogant, and most people in the palace didn't like him, but there was nothing they could do about him.
Liu Er knew that Guiyue was not arrogant, but because he was a cold and arrogant person in his bones, and he would not give a good face to those who were not used to it, even if the other party was the emperor.
It was already winter when I saw Guiyue again, and the flowers and plants in Liu'er's small yard were withered, and Liu'er stood under the eaves for a while, looking at the bare branches, and sighed.
Her sister Cen Xue was engaged to someone half a month ago, and she will get married in the spring of next year, and she will be married in the spring of next year.
"Miss, why did you come out wearing such a little bit? It's getting better these days, but it won't be good if you catch a cold again! Xiao Man put a cloak on her while chattering, and handed her the stove, Liu Er took the stove, sighed comfortably, and said, "I want to come out and have a look." ”
"What's there to see? The yard is bare, and it should be snowing in a few days. Xiaoman pushed Liu'er to the house, and when she saw the people under the eaves in front of her, she was stunned and turned to look at Liu'er.
Liu Er raised her head, saw that it was Guiyue, and as soon as her hand was loosened, the stove fell, and she rolled out of the distance with a bang.
Xiao Man hurriedly went over to pick it up, and Guiyue walked over and said with a smile: "Long time no see." ”
Liu Er felt that her eyes were a little hot, she sniffed and nodded, "Well, it's been a long time." ”
Xiao Man made a pot of hot tea and went to the kitchen to ask for some pastries. The second lady of the Shangshu Mansion family had a private meeting with the royal luthier, if this was known, it would be a matter of losing his head, Xiaoman did not dare to be ambiguous, and was careful for fear of letting people know. Fortunately, no one in the house cared about Liu'er, so Guiyue came to Liu'er many times this winter, but no one noticed.
After the New Year, Guiyue knew that Liu'er was about to be in time, so she carved the Autumn Mountain jade given by the emperor into a pear blossom hosta and gave it to Liu'er.
She could see that her young lady was in love with the young luthier, and he also liked her own young lady, but it was impossible for the two of them to be together.
Few people paid attention to Liu Er's ceremony, and everyone began to prepare for Cen Xue's marriage, not caring about what was happening in this remote courtyard, and the number of times Guiyue came became more and more frequent.
On the day of Cen Xue's wedding, there were few people left in Cen Mansion, Liu Er was one of the people who stayed, she was sitting in the courtyard reading a book, and suddenly heard the sound of a piano, she raised her head and saw that Guiyue was sitting on the wall, holding the piano, her fingers gently plucking the strings, he lowered his head, and his eyes were like a pool of lake water, rippling waves.
Guiyue jumped down, sat down opposite Liu'er, and asked, "Why is your house so deserted today?" ”
"Today, my sister got married, and she went to her in-laws' side."
Guiyue nodded, after these time of getting along, he also knew Liu'er's situation, he took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "When I leave the palace, I will marry you." ”
"But will the Emperor allow you to leave?" Liu Er was a little worried.
"Liu'er, are you willing to elope with me?" Rosemoon said suddenly.
Liu Er's heart suddenly began to beat violently, and she looked at Guiyue's eyes, and her shadow was clearly reflected in those eyes.
"I ......"
Looking at Guiyue's eager gaze, Liu Er turned her head away, the smile on Guiyue's face froze, and said, "It's okay if you don't want to, it's me who is abrupt, I'm sorry." ”
"That's not what I meant!" Liu Er tugged at his sleeve, "I do, but, but-"
"But what?"
"What should Xiaoman do?"
Guiyue blinked, not far away Xiao Man was coming over with a food plate, he knew that Xiao Man was no less than his own sister to Liu'er, and she couldn't let go of Xiao Man and leave alone.
"Let's go." Rosemoon Road.
"Nope." Liu Er still shook her head, "Guiyue, forget it, we're already fine now, I don't expect anything else, I just hope that we are all well, I don't dare to take this risk." ”
Guiyue took Liu Er into her arms, and when Liu Er saw this scene, she stopped, not daring to step forward to disturb.
Unbeknownst to the others, there was one who was hiding behind a pillar and was watching everything.
At dinner, Liu Er was called over by Master Cen, and Liu Er just went over to salute, but before she could say anything, she was slapped to the ground by Master Cen.
Xiaoman hurriedly went over to help Liu Er up, Liu Er covered half of her swollen face, her eyes were full of tears, but she didn't know what she had done to provoke him.
The eldest lady looked gloating on the side, and Liu Er frowned and asked, "Daddy, what did Liu Er do wrong?" Why are you hitting Liu'er?! ”
"Immoral things! You're still cheeky to ask me what you've done wrong?! Master Cen's old face turned red with anger, "Say!" Who's that man in your backyard today?! ”
Liu Er's eyes widened, was seen today's events?
"Dad, did you misunderstand? How could there be a man in Liu'er's yard? ”
"Dare to quibble?" Master Cen said that he was going to fight Liu'er again, but Xiaoman hurriedly blocked in front of Liu'er, "Master is angry!" Miss is not in good health, I can't help you to fight! ”
