64. Reconciliation
The door of the girls' temporary dormitory was closed, Rui'er shouted several times outside without responding, Zhuo Xi stopped Rui'er, walked to the door and patted it, and said: "Sisters, I am Zhuo Xi, what can you say to me face to face, no matter what, I don't want to have a misunderstanding with everyone." ”
Leaned slightly, the door slowly opened with a "squeak", Ran Yu appeared behind the door with a gloomy face, and the other girls were standing beside Ran Yu, and they couldn't help but bow their heads when they saw Zhuo Xi standing outside the door.
Looking at the girls' depressed expressions, Zhuo Xi smiled lightly and asked, "Can I come in?" ”
Ran Yu turned sideways without saying a word to give way, and the other girls also automatically retreated, and when Zhuo Xi came in, they all stood in their own positions silently.
After all, in the ranking of girls, they are only the lowest beginners, and even if they complain, they can't say it openly, and they can only express their dissatisfaction with silence.
Zhuo Xi looked at the people who bowed their heads and said silently, "I don't know why everyone is like this, if I do something wrong, please tell me directly." I only hope to do my best to help you, and I hope that you will have a happy and fulfilling life! ”
Perhaps touched by Zhuo Xi's words, Ran Yu slowly raised her head, looked at Zhuo Xi and asked, "May I ask the girl, why did we come here?" ”
"It was Miss Wan Tang, the owner of the Moon Pavilion, who transferred you over." Zhuo Xi replied calmly.
"Why did you transfer us here? Why are we here? Ran Yu asked with tears in her eyes and a trembling voice.
Zhuo Xi sighed secretly, she looked at the women sincerely, and said, "Miss Wantang made an agreement with me to improve your skills and learn a dance within three days. ”
Ran Yu's tears burst out of her eyes, and she choked up and said, "So, we are just a pawn in your bet, and we will decide which of you wins or loses according to our performance, right?" Girl, you know what? We respect you so much, we appreciate you so much, we feel that we have met the best people in the Condensation Hall, and we all treat you as our own sisters, friends, and even relatives! But I didn't expect that this is just our wishful thinking, we are deceiving ourselves, and we are always just other people's bargaining chips! Maybe we don't deserve a sister or friend like you! ”
The other women also cried sadly, and Rui'er on the side was anxious and angry, but Zhuo Xi stopped her several times when she wanted to speak.
Zhuo Xi sighed and said, "I did make an agreement with Miss Wantang about your dancing skills, just for..."
"Miss Zhuo Xi, please go back!" Ran Yu wiped a handful of tears, ran to the door, pointed to the door and said, "Please go back, we are not worthy of your teaching, in the future, we will still practice and live in the same way as before..."
Rui'er on the side couldn't hold back any longer, and rushed to Ran Yu and shouted at her, "Do you know why Miss Zhuo Xi is here? She was placed under house arrest by Miss Wantang, and their agreement was just to return Miss Zhuoxi's freedom! ”
What, house arrest? Is Miss Zhuo Xi under house arrest here? Everyone looked at Zhuo Xi in surprise, wasn't she the jade girl of Fushan Courtyard, how could she be placed under house arrest here?
Zhuo Xi smiled faintly at everyone and said: "No matter what the reason for our agreement is, you just need to remember that you should seize every opportunity to improve yourself, and only by making yourself constantly excellent can you control your future!" This is what we learned yesterday, we should all remember it, right? ”
"Girl..."
"Girl, we can't stop you..."
We misinterpreted Miss Zhuo Xi like this, but she still taught us that we only cared about our own feelings and never thought about her! Ran Yu finally couldn't bear the guilt and suffering, and suddenly ran to Zhuo Xi and knelt down, and the other women also knelt down.
"Girl, we misunderstood you, and we thought... You taught us for your own good. Ran Yu said while shaking her head while crying.
Zhuo Xi hurriedly helped Ran Yu up, and said eagerly: "Sisters, hurry up, you don't have to be like this." Ran Yu, in fact, what you said is right, I am for my own benefit--- I can leave here as soon as possible and return to Fushan Courtyard, so I promised Miss Wantang to teach you, but I really hope that the sisters can gain something, no matter what it is. ”
Ran Yu regretted that she was too reckless and instigated the sisters to strike without finding out the truth, and she asked remorsefully and embarrassedly: "Girl, are you still willing to continue to teach us?" ”
Everyone also looked at Zhuo Xi with expectant eyes, and Zhuo Xi smiled sincerely and said, "Of course, I'm also very happy to be with you." Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief and laugh knowingly.
"Ran Yu, I have some doubts and want to ask you..."Zhuo Xi pulled Ran Yu and said.
Ran Yu nodded and said, "Girl, I know what you want to ask, at noon, Mengqin and I met a little girl not far from the lotus pond, she accidentally fell off the cake to Miss Wantang, we helped her up, she said thank you for us and told us that you have a gambling contract with Miss Wantang!" ”
"How can there be any gambling contract, in fact, Miss Wantang had already transferred you all at that time, and only then did she tell Miss Zhuo Xi, the girl didn't want to agree, but after seeing you later, she agreed." Ruil said with a pout.
"Ah, that's what happened!" Everyone sighed again. It turned out that it was all the idea of Miss Wantang alone, and this Zhuo Xi girl was also subject to her, but she still taught everyone wholeheartedly, thinking about this, everyone felt even more guilty, and at the same time, their admiration for Zhuo Xi increased a little more.
"However, Miss Wantang likes to eat pastries, for convenience, she always asks her subordinates to put the pastries directly in the dining room next to her bedroom, even from the kitchen to her dining room will not pass through the lotus pond, why do you want to take the pastries around a big circle?" Ruil tilted her head and said, she couldn't figure it out.
These few words woke Ran Yu up, and she suddenly remembered something and said: "I remember, at that time, I saw that the crusts of those pastries that were spilled on the ground were particularly dry, and it felt as if they had been drying outside for a long time, how could a noble woman like Miss Wantang eat pastries that had been dried for so long?" And even if it is to be thankful, a maid will not be able to tell us foreign girls about their own girls, I thought it was strange at the time, but I didn't think much about it, alas, I blame it! ”
"Okay, the misunderstanding has been solved, everyone don't take it to heart, we're still the same as at the beginning, okay?" Zhuo Xi said with a calm smile, but this time it made her know the people of the Moon Pavilion a little deeper.
"Thank you Miss Zhuo Xi for her magnanimity"
"Thank you, girl, regardless of the past suspicions......
Everyone was gossiping about gratitude, and Zhuo Xi said with some amusement: "Don't be so polite, let's hurry up and practice!" ”
While everyone nodded in agreement, Ran Yu pondered on the side, Meng Qin saw her strange appearance and asked, "Sister Ran Yu, what's wrong with you?" Are you worried about something? ”
Ran Yu sighed lightly and said, "Just the girl guiding us to practice dance can be calculated, I really don't know what else will happen in the future?" "I was almost taken advantage of by others today, and I feel scared when I think about it.
After Zhuo Xi heard this, he turned his head and said to them: "Ran Yu's worries are also right, but we must know that the road ahead is very long, and there will definitely be a lot of things." As long as we always remember our original thoughts, we must also keep our eyes open, tolerate good, and not tolerate evil! Send you a few words: Don't forget the original intention, distinguish between right and wrong! ”
"Don't forget the original intention, distinguish between right and wrong!" Everyone looked at Zhuo Xi and followed her to read these words several times.
"Okay, it's still raining outside, we won't go out, how about I teach you a little song here?" Zhuo Xi proposed.
"Good, good!" As soon as they heard the singing, the girls immediately became active.
"The peach blossom rain in March, the spring smoke makes filaments;
The wind blows the green silk dance, and the heart is wetter than the spring mud.
A small reed house outside the mountain, two flowers in front of the door,
The pears and apricots were put one after another, and the little slaves were not seen.
An empty sky flies like a yarn, Mu Jiaoyan, pecking mud only for home.
Even if there is a wandering thought, the mountains are separated, and the world is far away.
Spring water pays flowing clouds, just for a tree of flowers.
In March, when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it rains like a thin smoke in spring, and like a filament;
The wind blows and the hair flies, but the heart is sour and unspeakably wetter than the soil of this spring.
Thinking of a small thatched hut outside the distant mountain, there are two flowering trees planted in front of the door,
The pear and apricot trees bloomed one after another, but the little girl who was playing in front of the door was nowhere to be seen.
The spring rain in front of me is empty, the drizzle is flying like a thin veil, envying the vigorous flying swallows in the rain, pecking in the mud everywhere just for their own home.
I want to pin my thoughts on the wind, but I am isolated by this endless mountains, and for that small grass hut, I am already far away from the world.
My tears, along with the rain of this spring, were handed over to the clouds in the sky, and I hoped that it would go and see the blossoms of the tree in front of the gate on my behalf. ”
Zhuo Xi sang softly, everyone listened quietly, at first they didn't understand it, but after three or four times, they slowly felt the artistic conception in the song. Some people began to hum along, and then everyone began to sing along with tears in their eyes. The subordinates of the Moon Pavilion who were working nearby listened with their ears pricked up for a while and hummed softly. In this way, on this rainy spring afternoon, this mournful homesick tune was spread farther and farther away.
Wan Tang lazily reclined on the couch, fiddling with her nails, and asked Eru: "What are our Zhuo Xi girls doing on this rainy day?" ”
"I heard Jie'er say that those women hid in the dormitory in the afternoon and didn't come out, Miss Zhuo Xi sent someone to call the door and ate the closed door, and then Miss Zhuo Xi went to the dormitory in person, and she should still be there now." Eru bowed her head and replied.
"Oh, is it? She, a jade girl, deigned to go to the dormitory of these peach blossom women? It's really a natural cheapness, and it can't be changed at any time! Tomorrow I'm going to see how she teaches these women. Wan Tang sneered, then she thought about it again, sat up and said: "This Zhuo Xi is very good at winning people's hearts, don't follow her to practice after saying a few words to these women!" Eru, you go and watch for yourself, see who among them has the best practice, and then..."
E nodded knowingly and withdrew.
In the evening, Zhuo Xi got up and was about to leave, but Ran Yu pulled her and said, "Girl, Miss Wantang will be tested tomorrow, or will we practice again at night?" ”
"No need, in fact, you all already know it, your fish dance is much more difficult than Eru's dance! Rest well tonight, and we'll learn something else tomorrow morning. Zhuo Xi smiled and patted Ran Yu's hand and said.
"Girl, we must dance well tomorrow and let you win Miss Wantang!"
"yes, we'll definitely set her free!" ......
The girls all surrounded Zhuo Xi and expressed their attitude to her, Zhuo Xi looked at everyone, put away her smiling faces, looked at everyone seriously and said: "If you want to dance, concentrate on dancing and don't think about anything." My agreement with Wan Tang is a matter between me and her. You just have to remember to always be your best self! ”
Looking at Zhuo Xi's resolute face, everyone nodded.
