Sure enough, as Wan Tang said, there was a small building on the side of the outer wall on the north side of the Moon Pavilion, and a small pavilion was built on it. The view here is wide, with mountains in the distance and stars in the sky.

It is said to be a loft, but it can actually be regarded as a small living room. The inside is very clean, a small bed that can only lie down one person, a slightly old but delicate desk, a bookshelf full of books... Seeing these Zhuo Xi secretly thought: Although this room is small, it is elegant, I don't know who lives here on weekdays? Wan Tang? It doesn't look like it...

Directly in front of the door was a slightly larger table with plates of pastries and a pot of tea. After Zhuo Xi and Wan Tang sat down, Wan Tang introduced the pastries on the table: "Come, sister, try this hibiscus cake, the entrance is crispy, sweet but not greasy; Try this piece of jade sand cake again, the entrance is soft, salty and sweet, you're welcome, come, try it! ”

Zhuo Xi picked up the pastry highly recommended by Wan Tang and took a bite and tasted it slowly, it was indeed as Wan Tang said, sweet and delicious, nodded and said, "Sister, the pastries here are really delicious!" ”

Wan Tang smiled proudly and said, "It's delicious, right?" This is a reward from Mrs. Fengqi, it is estimated that my sister has never eaten it in Fushan Courtyard, right? If you want to eat in the future, come to my sister's place, my sister's here is full of delicious food! After that, he looked at Zhuo Xi lightly.

This is clearly laughing at yourself for not seeing the world! Zhuo Xi put down the pastry in his hand, smiled faintly at Wantang, and said, "Thank you sister for your love, but my sister can't bear it." Although the pastries are delicious, they are only made of grains, and the coarse tea and light rice are simple but the most nourishing! Sister is still suitable for ordinary food. ”

A hint of fierceness flashed in Wan Tang's eyes, but he immediately squeezed out a smile and said, "If you don't say that my sister is different, sister, I really like you more and more." Okay, since my sister doesn't like these pastries, let's have tea. ”

Eru immediately lifted the teapot on the table and poured two cups, as soon as the tea came out, a fragrant and sweet smell suddenly came to her face, Zhuo Xi couldn't help but take a deep breath, that's right, that's the taste! Such as flowers, such as sweet honey, refreshing, pleasing to people's hearts. At that time, it was such a cup of tea, which saved Liu Yuzhen from being sent to the flower field, and at the same time made her lose her qualification to be a girl, and she could only do rough work and heavy work, and even the maids around the girls were not as good as her.

Seeing Zhuo Xi's intoxicated expression, Wan Tang smiled proudly and said, "Can my sister recognize this tea?" The name of this tea is called a beauty smile, this is the new favorite of Aunt Meng and Mrs. Fengqi, it is said that only a new tea master from Biyun Division will make this tea, come, sister please! ”

Zhuo Xi didn't talk to Wan Tang politely, he directly picked up the cup and took a sip, which was instantly sweet, and a warm feeling ran down his throat, and his abdomen also warmed up. After drinking, I only felt that my mouth was full of refreshment, and a thin layer of sweat appeared all over my body, and I suddenly felt a lot more energetic. Although the mouth is not sweet, this fragrant feeling has always lingered in the heart.

Wan Tang had been observing Zhuo Xi's expression, and couldn't help but sneer when he saw that she had been lingering in the taste of tea, sure enough, what Yuyin said was right!

In fact, Wan Tang doesn't like to drink tea, she really doesn't adapt to the bitterness of tea, and sweet and glutinous pastries are her favorite. She felt that she liked a kind of tea because she liked this person who was related to tea, and seeing Zhuo Xi so intoxicated, she must have had an unusual relationship with the tea-making maid. If that's the case, then this tea master named Liu Yuzhen is her weakness! Wan Tang secretly became proud.

After a long time, Zhuo Xi finished drinking a cup of tea and asked, "May I ask my sister, is that tea maker here?" Can you tell us about it? ”

"Oh, my sister wants to see this tea master, Eru, go and invite that tea master over." Wan Tang turned his face slightly sideways and instructed Eru.

"Ah~ that tea master... After making this pot of tea, it is... It's gone..."Although the girl explained her answer in advance, she was still a little nervous, after all, not everyone is suitable for lying.

"Oh, it's gone, what a pity!" Wan Tang glared at Eru, and scolded in his heart: It's really useless! Then he turned his head and said to Zhuo Xi: "If my sister really wants to see this tea master, my sister can invite her over tomorrow." Look at the starlight shining tonight, the clouds are slender, and it is the first time for our sisters to get together to drink tea, and my sister should be happy. ”

Liu Yuzhen is gone? Zhuo Xi was a little disappointed in her heart, and just now she asked Pan'er to go back and get the Ningshen Pill and bring it over, why did she leave? Alas, forget it, I still have too shallow fate with Sister Yuzhen.

"Who else is in my sister's house?" Wan Tang added a cup of tea to Zhuo Xi and asked casually.

"At home..."

Family? In these days when she is away, will she still be treated as family? Maybe her father has already set up a tablet for her, so will her mother get sicker because of her departure? Are the two younger brothers still as naughty as before? Zhuo Xi's nose couldn't help but sour, and tears almost fell.

"There's no one at home anymore..."Zhuo Xi replied by biting his lip.

"Alas, it turns out that my sister, like my sister, has become an orphan girl. If my sister doesn't dislike it, she will treat me as her own sister, and treat this place as her home, and she will often come and walk around when she has nothing to do in the future. Wan Tang looked at Zhuo Xi and said leisurely.

Eru is the boss with beads in his eyes on the side, what's wrong with her girl today, why is she so kind? She has been with Wan Tang for almost two years, and except for Lan Yang, she has never seen Wan Tang give anyone a good look.

"Thank you, sister, for your pity!" Zhuo Xi was also a little surprised, this is really different from the rumored Wan Tang, it seems that the rumors are indeed not credible, Wan Tang is not an arrogant and ruthless person.

"Sister, although I have a slightly better background than my sister, but so what? Once the family is ruined, those who chased and curried favor with you in the past wanted to hide as far as they could. Wan Tang thought of the distress, when those former regulars saw them, they drove them away like a plague, and they wanted to crush the teacup in their hands.

This Wan Tang is actually a poor person! Zhuo Xi looked at Wan Tang sympathetically, wanting to comfort her but didn't know where to speak, and finally only said: "Sister, let the past pass, let's live a good life in the future..."

"In the past? How is it possible to pass? I remember the evil that anyone has done to me, and I will definitely double it back to her if I have the chance! Wan Tang said viciously, and the tea in the teacup was spilled on the ground.

Zhuo Xi was taken aback, it seems that this Wan Tang is indeed very resentful, thinking about how many people she has experienced from a famous and noble show who is sought after by everyone to a prisoner, it is understandable to have these thoughts.

Wan Tang seemed to be caught in a memory, staring at the starry sky outside with a sloppy gaze and said hatefully: "What are you talking about the song race Huang Ying, but it happened that the second brother shot down a bird when he was practicing songs; What about dancing in the palace, it's just that my father dedicated a dancing girl to the King of Qi has some eyebrows and eyes similar to me. Just to please my father, even a concubine like me was passed on by them as a god, but as soon as my father was imprisoned, everyone turned their faces, and in the past, those guests and friends ran faster than birds and beasts, as well as those so-called friends in the DPRK and China, who knew that their father was wronged but did not even speak for him, poor father fought for the country all his life, but finally died unjustly in prison. Pity us women, what's wrong with us? We are all women who abide by the rules of the family, but they are bought and sold like animals, what are we doing wrong? ”

Wan Tang said hatefully, two lines of crystal tears sliding down his cheeks. Zhuo Xi was shocked, others only envied her glory when they rumored about Wantang's life experience, but who would care about the pain and scars in her heart, and who would really think about her? No wonder she has so much resentment in her heart, and so lonely...

Eru on the side was also shocked by Wan Tang's words, she only saw the girl's flamboyant and domineering side on weekdays, but she never thought that she had suffered so much damage, and she couldn't help but cry with sadness in her heart. Eru handed over a handkerchief, and said in a trembling voice, "Girl..."

Before he finished speaking, the handkerchief in his hand was knocked off by Wan Tang, and Eru reacted at this time, a girl is a girl, no matter how miserable she is, she is not a maid who can be pitied. A spirit, Eru lowered his head and stepped aside.

Wan Tang changed his previous elegance, directly touched the tears on his face with his hand, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Whoever is evil to me, I will remember; Who was good to me, I will remember more. In the past few years, only Mr. Hongan and Brother Lanyang have treated me sincerely, but Mr. Hongan is too weak, and when my father was in trouble, he hid here and didn't even dare to show his face, and in the end he only saved me alone. ”

Why do you say that Mr. Hongan is weak? Why don't you want to know if there is something hidden in the gentleman? Zhuo Xi recalled what Pan'er told her about Mr. Hong'an, and it seemed that she came here to avoid being chased and killed. It seems that hatred has clogged Wan Tang's mind, and she will only narrowly guess others according to her own mind.

"Only Brother Lanyang thinks about me wholeheartedly, when I first came, I was discouraged, it was he who kept comforting me and encouraging me, and he was even afraid that I would find a short time to accompany me every day. It was also he who taught me the techniques of dancing and supervised me to practice over and over again, so that my dancing skills continued to improve. At that time, he accompanied me to the hillside behind the Condensation Hall to see the white clouds in the sky, and listened to the sound of the wind in my ears, saying that it was for me to let myself fly and feel all things in the world; He made me watch the birds jump on the branches, the fish chasing in the water, and let me incorporate these agile gestures into my limbs..."

Speaking of this, Wan Tang's face showed an innocent smile.

Think about Wan Tang at that time, it should be the happiest! A picture came to Zhuo Xi's mind, a pair of young boys and girls sat side by side on the grass under a big tree, the young man held a handful of wild flowers and told gently, the bright sun shone on the girl's sweet smiling face, a gust of wind blew, dandelions flew everywhere, the girl closed her eyes and carefully felt the sun, felt the wind, felt her heartbeat...

was in reverie, suddenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and when he looked back, he saw Wan Tang staring at him viciously, Zhuo Xi couldn't help but shiver.

"It was Brother Lanyang who pushed me to the position of the first dance in the Condensation Hall, I will never forget Brother Lanyang's kindness to me for the rest of my life, and I will never forget a word of his teachings to me. After Mrs. Fengqi gave me this Moon Pavilion, the first thing I did was to renovate the abandoned lotus pond, and then build this Yuxing Terrace. Here, Brother Lanyang used to come often, accompany me to watch the sunset, accompany me to watch the stars, and when the moonlight is particularly good, he plays me to dance... When he was not there, I saw the fish swimming in the water, saw the reflection of the white clouds, and when I saw the stars and moon at night, I could feel that Brother Lanyang was always by my side..."Wan Tang's eyes were shining, flashing with longing, and also revealing madness.

Wan Tang met Lan Yang when she was about to lose everything, so Lan Yang became her only spiritual sustenance and the only one she wanted to protect, which is why she was so fiercely opposed to others approaching Lan Yang. Zhuo Xi slowly understood Wan Tang's thoughts, but he was just like an ordinary brother to Lan Yang, and he had no other thoughts. So Zhuo Xi was very calm and didn't react to Wan Tang's words.

Seeing that Zhuo Xi was looking at himself so calmly, Wan Tang slowly recovered, let out a long breath and looked at the starry sky outside, and said slowly: "Recently, Brother Lanyang has not paid as much attention to me as before, and he no longer talks to me too much except for practicing dance skills. I know that every woman in this Condensation Hall has a bad idea of her brother, and it must be a slut who doesn't know whether she is alive or dead and has pestered her brother! But none of them wanted to snatch Brother Lanyang, because my brother had told me that he was out of pity for the women in Ninglu Hall, and he had nothing else to think about. Those sluts are really delusional, and they still think about Brother Gao Panlanyang, and they don't look at their own identity to see if they are worthy? Sister, do you say? With that, he turned his head and looked at Zhuo Xi coldly.
