Chapter 39
I didn't tell anyone about the shifting light, but it was undoubtedly a huge blow to me, and I was visibly silent, everyone noticed the change in me, and they were all quietly concerned about me, but no one dared to ask me what was going on. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Wu Sisi and Xie Qing Xie Ni went to the kitchen early in the morning to be busy with something, and I sat under the big tree in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness, not so much to enjoy the coolness as to be in a daze.
Shu'er couldn't help but come to me, she whispered, "Young Master! ā
I didn't notice her voice, and it wasn't until she called me a second time that I woke up from a dream.
Shu'er wrinkled her nose dissatisfiedly and said, "The young master hasn't been to the city for a few days, doesn't Lan Kwai Fong's business care?" ā
I smiled indifferently and said, "Where is there any business, in a few days, I will resell Lan Kwai Fong!" ā
Shu'er said: "Young master, you have changed a lot......"
Looking at Shu'er's innocent appearance that wanted to speak and stopped, I couldn't help laughing: "Little girl, how have I changed?" ā
Shu'er said: "The young master always likes to talk and laugh on weekdays, but since he got sick, he has become silent, and most of the time he is thinking about his thoughts, Sister Sisi, they don't dare to ask you, but they don't shed tears for the young master behind their backs." ā
I trembled in my heart, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the kitchen, just to see Xie Qing standing outside the door looking at me, and when she met my eyes, she hurriedly lowered her head and walked into the room. I felt a wave of guilt in my heart, because I had been depressed a lot in the past two days because of the blow of the light, but I didn't notice that my emotions had brought too much sorrow to the people around me.
Shu'er said: "We still like the way the young master used to smile and smile!" ā
I couldn't help but smile: "Silly girl, when people are sick, their mood will naturally become much lower, don't I even have the freedom to get sick?" ā
Shu'er shook her head and said, "Young master, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as being sick, although I'm young, I can see it." ā
I laughed, stretched out my arms, got up and took two steps, and said, "I suddenly feel better!" ā
"Really?" Shu'er was pleasantly surprised.
I nodded heavily and said: "Since it's an unhappy thing, why should I put her in my heart, not only affects my mood, but also causes the people around me who really care about me to worry about me, don't worry, from today on, I will still be the same turtle who laughs all day long!" ā
Shu'er jumped up happily.
I picked up a branch from the ground: "Come, we're idle anyway, stay with me for two tricks!" ā
Shu Erjiao smiled: "Young master, I still don't want it, what if I accidentally hurt you!" ā
I exhaled angrily: "What a rampant little girl, I just recently learned a very powerful set of swordsmanship, I have to beat your ass today!" ā
Shu'er snorted unconvinced, and also found a branch, and you and I went back and forth on the grass to dismantle it. Since the white ape instructed me in swordsmanship that night, it was the first time I had broken up with someone else, and I couldn't help but be a little rusty at first, but as time went on, my swordsmanship became more and more proficient.
For a while, Shu'er was forced to be in a hurry, and while she was unprepared, the branch in my hand lightly knocked on her buttocks, and laughed: "Are you convinced?" ā
Shu'er shook her head and said, "It's just that I underestimate the enemy, young master will come again!" "This time she took the initiative to attack me, I looked at the direction of her sword, a homeopathic pull, Shu'er's petite body rushed forward, I skillfully moved behind her, and poked her jade buttocks, of course, I didn't have an obscene element, I have always treated Shu'er as my own sister. Shu'er blushed and said, "Don't play, don't play, where did the young master learn such a powerful swordsmanship?" ā
I smiled and said, "I realized it myself." ā
Wu Sisijiao smiled and walked in our direction, with the freshly washed fruit in the tray in her hand, I clapped my hands and said, "Okay, rest for a while!" ā
Xie Ni brought water over, washed my hands for me, and saw that my face finally returned to its former smile, Xie Ni and Wu Sisi looked at each other and smiled, my heart moved, my emotional changes actually affected the hearts of so many girls around me, and today I realized how important I am to them. If I do be able to go back one day, how will they be sad?
I suddenly realized that no matter how long I could stay here, I had to try my best to create a better future for them, so that they could live happily, I couldn't continue to live in a mess, and the reason why I wanted to poison me was because she thought I couldn't give her the happiness she wanted, I didn't hate her, and I was determined not to interfere in her life again. The girls in front of me have already linked their happiness with me, and I must cherish them. If you stay in this era, you must make them as happy as possible.
Wu Sisi put a peeled pear into my hand, and I picked up the knife in the tray and cut it in half. But I heard Wu Sisi exclaim: "Don't ......"
I looked at her in surprise, and Wu Sisiqiao said with a pale face: "Childe, have you forgotten what day it is?" ā
I frowned and looked at Wu Sisi in surprise.
Wu Sisi said softly: "Today is August 15, the day of the full moon, why did the son commit the taboo of dividing pears!" ā
I laughed and said, "I really forgot, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival!" I ate both halves of the pears into my stomach and smiled, "Now it's okay, it's all in my stomach, and it's reunited in my stomach." ā
Wu Sisi couldn't help laughing, seeing her seductive appearance, remembering that I hadn't been close to her for the past two days, the lust in my body couldn't help but rise, Wu Sisi seemed to realize something from my gaze, and two pieces of red glow quietly flew up on her pretty face. Biting his lower lip lightly, he said, "I'll go to the kitchen to help......"
Shu'er's cheerful voice sounded from the gate: "Young Master, Eighth Master Wang is here!" ā
Wang Bafang's laughter and scolding sounded in his ears: "Xiao Nizi, if you call me Uncle Wang, who asked you to call me Uncle Wang?" ā
Shu Erjiao smiled: "I always feel that Wang Baye is more pleasant!" ā
I hurriedly got up to greet him, but saw Wang Bafang walking in with two servants and carrying large and small gift boxes.
I smiled and said, "Big brother, it stands to reason that I, as a brother, should go to your door to give gifts, how dare I work for you!" ā
Wang Bafang said happily: "I'm waiting for you at home to come and not coming, and I'm waiting for you to come yet, so I, the eldest brother, can only come to you with a cheeky face." ā
We laughed and sat down by the tree, arm in arm, and Shu'er took the two servants to put the gift box into the room.
Wang Bafang said: "I heard that you are sick, and you have been busy with casino affairs for the past two days, so you can't take care of it, my brother won't blame me for being a brother, right?" ā
"Where is the eldest brother, I just suffered a little wind chill in the rain, and now I am completely fine."
Wang Bafang looked at me carefully and said, "Seeing that you are as strong as a calf, there is obviously nothing wrong with you, by the way, is your Lan Kwai Fong completely closed like this, and you don't plan to continue?" ā
I smiled embarrassedly and said, "It seems that the eldest brother was right, it is really unwise to open a nightclub in Huiji." ā
Wang Bafang said with a smile: "Since you don't want to do it, just take it out as soon as possible, and staying in your hand will only put more money in it." ā
I nodded, "I'll get the news out in two days." ā
Wang Bafang said in a low voice: "Mu Heng is dead!" ā
This was expected by me, so I didn't show any surprise and said softly, "Is there anything unusual in the city?" ā
Wang Bafang shook his head with a smile and said: "As soon as Mu Heng dies, everyone in his gang of scoundrels will be in danger, not to mention that Yan Zifeng does have some skills, I think it won't take long for him to completely straighten out the forces left by Mu Heng." He paused and said, "I heard that you asked Kaolie to help him, are you worried that Yan Zifeng's ambition will swell after he sits down?" ā
I smiled and nodded: "Yan Zifeng is the eldest brother who should know better than me, for such a guy, the necessary beating should be carried out early, which is called prevention before it happens." ā
Wang Bafang nodded sympathetically, and said in a low voice: "After Mu Heng died, the gangsters in the Huiji area were much more honest, but Lu Ergou's gang of subordinates were still not very obedient, and I heard that Lu Ergou quietly slipped back again." ā
My eyes burst out with anger, and I said coldly: "That bastard, I caught him this time, and I will never let him go!" ā
Wang Bafang said in a low voice: "What are you going to do, brother?" ā
"I want my eldest brother to come forward and settle this matter!"
Wang Bafang smiled: "You are really my good brother, you are always the first to think of me when you are in trouble." ā
I happily said: "Who made us sworn brothers, as a big brother, you naturally want to help me clean up the trouble!" ā
Wang Bafang laughed, he nodded and said, "Okay, by the way, I'm here this time mainly for other things. ā
"What's the matter?"
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, according to etiquette, you should go to your relatives to pay respects, I see that my brother's condition has improved, is it time to walk around?"
He reminded me that I really should go around and say hello, and if nothing else, my two sisters definitely need to go.
Wang Bafang said with a smile: "I have prepared everything, they are all in the carriage outside, and my brother can set off at any time." ā
Wang Bafang and I first went to the mansion of Xiong Zedai, the Mid-Autumn Festival in the spring and autumn is much more grand than the modern society, but at this time there is no custom of eating moon cakes, but every household is lit up, and the streets are filled with a festive atmosphere.
Xiong Zedai and Xu Chunhua are not in the house, it turns out that they also went around, it seems that there is not much difference between ancient and modern habits, the more the festival is the peak period of gift-giving, Xiong Zedai and they are not exempt from vulgarity.
After leaving the gifts, Wang Bafang and I came to the Taifu mansion, came to the door, saw the gifts of the carriages and horses lined up, had to sigh the arrogance of the ancients, gifts are blatant, it seems that the supervision mechanism in the Spring and Autumn Period is not perfect, officials in the festival to receive gifts is a tradition, no one is dissatisfied with this.
Wang Bafang and I swaggered towards the door, and several officials couldn't help but shout when they saw that I had cut in line.
The servant at the door recognized me and said with a smile: "This is Madame's brother!" "After knowing my identity, the gift-giving officials calmed down their anger, and when I walked by, their faces changed to a cute smile, and I secretly cursed these two-faced guys in my heart, and they didn't look at them at all.
Walking into the Taifu Mansion, I saw that the gifts in the courtyard had been piled up, and more than a dozen doormen were busy there to enter the warehouse lightly, and the gifts brought by Wang Bafang and I were obviously shabby, and they looked at each other, and they all showed a helpless smile.
Walking into the back garden, I saw Tang Meng standing by the pond with dazzling eyes to feed the fish, today she was dressed very plainly, wearing a blue checkered dress, without any ornaments around her body, her long hair was tied with a blue ribbon, hanging down her shoulders casually, and a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the pond in confusion, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.
I coughed lightly, Tang Meng was awakened by me, turned around, a knowing smile appeared on her pretty face, she moved the lotus step lightly, came to me, and her spring-like fingers hit me fiercely on the forehead: "You bastard, I only forgot about me!" ā
I smiled and said, "Even if the little turtle forgets his mother, he can't forget his sister!" ā
Tang Meng whispered: "It's going to talk nonsense!" Turning to Wang Bafang, he smiled and said, "Brother Bafang is also here!" ā
Wang Bafang smiled: "The little turtle dragged me to give my sister some gifts, otherwise I wouldn't be able to remember!" ā
Tang Meng's eyes rolled, and he looked at me meaningfully and said: "You don't have to excuse him, this kid has the most conscience, I know better than anyone else, if you don't remind him, I'm afraid he won't remember to come to see me at all." ā
I smiled awkwardly, Tang Meng seemed to know me very well, but if I hadn't been sick this time, I would definitely come over to see her in advance. I said softly: "My sister wronged me this time, I accidentally got caught in the rain and suffered from the wind cold two days ago, and it wasn't until today that I was late." ā
When Tang Meng heard me say this, he hurriedly stretched out his slender hand and touched my forehead, and the soft palm was attached to my forehead, which made my heartbeat accelerate, seeing Tang Meng's concerned eyes, my heart was moved, Lu Xiaogui had a sister who loved her like this, it was really a blessing from her previous life.
"Well, are you okay now? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Tang Meng said with concern.
I smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry, I'm completely fine, by the way, where is my brother-in-law?" ā
Speaking of Qu Mu, Tang Meng's bright eyes suddenly cast a shadow, and she said coldly: "He went to Xindu, maybe he won't come back tonight......"
I was stunned in my heart, judging from Tang Meng's performance, my godsister's real family life may not be as happy as she usually shows.
At this time, a slave walked in and whispered, "Madam, the Longyou City Guard and Madame have come to pay a visit." Tang Meng nodded.
Wang Bafang and I hurriedly bid farewell to Tang Meng.
Tang Meng said with no loss: "There is no way to greet the two of you today, and in a few days, I will ask people to invite you over for a drink." ā
On the way back, Tang Meng's eyes full of loss always echoed in my mind, and I secretly decided that if I had the opportunity in the future, I would definitely talk to her well, even if I couldn't help her, I could listen to her and share the depression in her heart.
Back at the villa, Kaoli and Dai Xiaolou Dai Kaishan brothers were already waiting for me there, and they also brought me gifts.
I haven't seen Dai Xiaolou for many days, and I'm very concerned about his current situation, but it's inconvenient to ask in front of everyone, so I invite them all to stay, since it's the Mid-Autumn Festival tonight, everyone can just get together and be lively.
Dai Kaishan and Kaoli sent a fat pig, and the pig killing business was naturally handed over to Dai Kaishan, while Dai Kaishan and Kaoli drove the pig to the back mountain to slaughter, Dai Xiaolou and I could finally talk privately.
"After going to Tucheng, are you still used to it?"
Dai Xiaolou nodded: "General Fan has taken special care of me, and they are all very good to me!" ā
I knocked on the side and said, "Are there a lot of beauties in Tucheng?" ā
Dai Xiaolou blushed and said: "There are indeed beauties from the Yue Kingdom concentrated in Tucheng, but I am only responsible for teaching their dances, and I don't dare to have other thoughts." ā
I laughed, this Dai Xiaolou clearly misunderstood what I meant. When I smiled, Dai Xiaolou's face turned even redder, and the ten fingers of his hands were twisted together to look extremely embarrassed.
I whispered, "Are there any girls among them who are extremely talented?" "According to my speculation, Xi Shi must be the most outstanding of them, otherwise why would he be selected in the end.
Dai Xiaolou thought about it carefully before saying, "There is a girl named Zheng Dan who is extremely good, and she is born to be a dancer's material. ā
Although I didn't ask directly about Xi Shi's whereabouts, it was the same when I found Zheng Dan, I was secretly surprised in my heart, and said in a low voice: "I'm in the ......" When I was about to say Xi Shi's name, I saw Xie Qing walking towards us, so I had to swallow the following words back.
Xie Qing smiled gently: "Young Master, the wine and food are ready, when will we start?" ā
Now that it was getting dark, and night was coming soon, I got up and said, "We'll eat in the courtyard tonight!" Just enough to drink and admire the moon, it's not too fast! ā
We all sat around the round table in the courtyard, this round table or I specially let the carpenter to make, in the Spring and Autumn Period people like to sit on the ground, natural tables and chairs are very low, I always feel unaccustomed to it, so I let the carpenter according to the drawings I drew specially made a round table and ten square stools, today finally came in handy.
According to Wu Sisi and Xie Qing, they didn't want to sit at the table, so I couldn't help but drag them all over, and said with a smile: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, if you want to be a family reunion, and Hemeimei, you must fill my round table!" ā
Kaoli and Dai Xiaolou and Dai Kaishan sat opposite me, and in their minds there was still a difference between dignity and inferiority, and they sat opposite me wherever I sit.
The servant served exquisite dishes, most of the dishes tonight were from Wu Sisi, Xie Qing, and Xie Ni, I saw that Xie Ni was still busy in the kitchen, and said to Shu'er: "Go and call Xie Ni over, no one can lack tonight." ā
Shu Erle nodded and hurriedly went, and after a while, Xie Ni came to the table with a pottery urn, and I smiled: "Eat for a while, and then go to work, the first three glasses of reunion wine must be drunk." ā
Xie Ni nodded lightly and sat down beside Shu'er.
Kaoli patted the mud seal of the wine jar, and an attractive aroma filled the air, and Dai Kaishan couldn't help but praise: "Good wine!" ā
Kaoli smiled: "These two jars of wine were given by Yan Zi, and his father is sick and can't come over in person." ā
I laughed and said: "Honoring your parents at home is the most important thing, Yan Zifeng is a caring person!" ā
I picked up the copper bottle and said, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, although my mother is not around, but I have so many of your good friends and sisters, it will be a complete and unforgettable night in my heart!" ā
Everyone was excited by my sensational words, and I said loudly: "Let us toast this toast, may our lives get better and better, may our relatives and friends always get together, and peace and tranquility will last forever!" ā
I was the first to drink it all, and everyone drank the wine in the bottle, Shu'er had never drunk before, and when she tried to drink it, she choked and coughed, causing everyone to laugh.
Shu'er protested: "It turns out that the wine is so unpleasant, why do you still like it so much?" ā
Dai Kaishan said with a smile: "I never felt bad to drink, it's good to get used to it, it's good to get used to it!" ā
The night sky is blue, the stars embrace a full moon slowly rising into the sky, like a jade disk like a full moon is entangled by a few wisps of clouds, a light wind blows, the surrounding leaves make a rustling sound, the full moon also takes the opportunity to break free from the shackles of the clouds, and rises into the pure night sky. The moonlight gently caresses the quiet earth, kissing the grass and trees under the luster.
Xie Qing praised softly: "What a beautiful moonlight!" ā
I smiled softly, and Wu Sisi quietly put the soft wattle into my palm, and gently flicked my fingers with her slender hand, and we held each other tightly.
Shu'er suggested: "Everyone is so happy tonight, shall we ask Sister Sisi to sing a song?" ā
The crowd cheered in unison.
Wu Sisi quietly shook my arm, looking at my beautiful eyes full of inquiry, obviously asking for my opinion, I smiled: "It's rare that everyone is so happy, you just sing a song to help everyone drink!" ā
Wu Sisi got my permission to leave the table and stand up, Shu'er took the guqin for her, Wu Sisi said softly: "I will sing the song that Gongzi taught me to the moon on behalf of my heart!" ā
The sound of the piano sounded melodiously with the soft moonlight, and Wu Sisi's heavenly singing voice resounded in the night sky: "...... You think about it, you go and see it, the moon represents my heart......"
I whispered to Wu Sisi's voice, my eyes entangled with her for a long time, and I suddenly understood that I didn't need to blame fate for being unfair to me, in fact, God has always been fair to me, and while I lost something, it also gave me a lot.
After the dinner, I personally sent them out of the manor, all the way to the front of the river, standing on the long bridge, watching them leave, just when I wanted to go back, I saw a carriage parked in the distance, and a long figure in front of the car stood there quietly, I was slightly stunned, only to feel that the figure was very familiar, and turned to Xie Qing and Sisi who accompanied me out and said: "You go back first, I'll go over and see!" ā
I walked quietly, my footsteps alarmed her, and the girl slowly turned around, I never thought that this girl standing alone by the river was actually my godsister Tang Meng.
Tang Meng's beautiful eyes were like smoke, and there were still undried tears on his face, obviously he had just cried.
I exclaimed, "Sister, since you're here, why don't you go in and sit?" ā
Tang Meng felt sad for a moment, leaned his head on my shoulder, and sobbed in a low voice. I gently comforted: "Sister, don't be afraid, if you have any grievances, just tell me, no matter who dares to bully you, I will not let him go first." But she vaguely guessed in her heart that it must be Qu Mu who made her sad.
It was not easy to persuade Tang Meng to stop crying, and I said softly: "Sister, why don't you go back with me, stay in the manor tonight, our sister and brother have a good drink of two cups, what do you have to tell me?" ā
Tang Meng nodded tearfully and beckoned into the distance, only then did I notice that there were two maids following in the distance, and when I saw the master calling them, I hurriedly ran over.
Tang Meng said: "You go to the manor first and wait, with my brother with you, you don't have to worry." ā
The two maids were Tang Meng's cronies, and after respectfully bidding farewell to us, they drove the carriage across the long bridge, and Tang Meng pointed to the river bank in the distance and said, "Walk with me!" ā
We walked along the river, the moonlight shone quietly on the river, looking at it from a distance as if there was a moon in the water, Tang Meng said softly: "The moonlight tonight is so beautiful!" ā
I looked at her beautiful silhouette and said secretly in my heart: "No matter how beautiful the moonlight is, how can it match my sister's face!" "In my heart, I already regard Tang Meng as my own sister, and I dare not say this kind of blasphemous words to my face.
Tang Meng sat down on the pebbles of the river beach, gently removed his embroidered shoes, and soaked his white feet in the cool river water. I sat down behind her and lent her my broad, solid back to lean on.
Tang Meng said softly: "Since I married him, I have spent the Mid-Autumn Festival alone every year. ā
I whispered, "Since he has already married his sister Mingmei, why can't he take you over?" Could it be that his eldest wife is very powerful? ā
Tang Meng sighed quietly and said: "In his heart, the first place is power, and the second place is his son, and I can only rank third at most." ā
I turned around and sat side by side with Tang Meng, but saw that her beautiful eyes were already full of tears, Tang Meng seemed to be afraid that I would see her tears, raised her pretty face, and looked at the bright moon in the sky, but the tears were not suppressed after all, and still slipped from her cheeks.
I whispered, "Some things may not be changed at all, so why fight if you can't fight for them." ā
I leaned down, held Tang Meng's slender snow-white calves, gently placed them on my knees, carefully dried her with my sleeves, and said with concern: "The river is too cold, sister be careful to freeze!" ā
Tang Meng smiled indifferently, like a bright white lotus blooming quietly in a summer night.
My hand covered her thin and slender instep, feeling her delicate and silky skin, her jade feet became slightly cool because of the soaking of the stream, and gradually rose to a normal temperature under the ironing of my body temperature, Tang Meng subconsciously clenched his crystal toes, and said softly: "If I were given another chance to choose, I would rather marry into an ordinary family and live a dull life." ā
I smiled and nodded, in my opinion, the reason why Tang Meng expressed so much emotion was only because Qu Mu didn't accompany her tonight, in fact, no matter who it is, emotional fluctuations are inevitable, and I was also deeply hit by the matter of moving the light a few days ago. I can almost conclude that Qu Mu did not show that he loved Tang Meng as much, as Tang Meng said, the most important thing for him is power, and once a woman knows that her position in a man's heart is insignificant, it is natural for her to feel a sense of loss.
I said softly: "Since he doesn't cherish his sister, why should my sister pin all her feelings and life on him." ā
Tang Meng's delicate body was shocked, his beautiful eyes looked at me incredulously, and he whispered: "You little thing, where did you get so many weird ideas." ā
I smiled indifferently: "I'm just not worth it for my sister, since he thinks about his own power and son first in everything, of course my sister can also make her own plans." ā
After Tang Meng said it, he seemed to be in a much better mood, and said softly: "Forget it, in fact, I have long been used to him treating me like this, maybe all this is just my own trouble." ā
She wiped away the tears on her face and said with a smile: "When I came to the manor just now, I heard the laughter inside, but I hesitated, I was worried that I would be laughed at by you when I walked in like this." ā
I said sincerely: "Sister rest assured, in the heart of the little turtle, my sister will always be the most beautiful and worthy of my respect in the world, no matter what grievances you suffer outside, you must remember me, you must remember that you have a younger brother, and where I am there is your home." ā
Tang Meng's wonderful eyes were filled with tears in an instant, and she suddenly hugged me tightly and beat my solid shoulder and back: "Bastard boy, do you make me cry......"
I gently patted her fragrant shoulder and said softly, "Sister hasn't eaten yet, let's go back!" ā
Tang Meng suddenly snorted, but it was one of her embroidered shoes that was washed away by the stream.
I smiled and bowed down and said, "It seems that I am the only one who rides my sister as a horse!" ā
Tang Mengqiao's face suddenly appeared two blushes, she lay on my back, her slender and round legs clamped my waist and abdomen from both sides, I held her beautiful legs, forced myself to expel any disrespectful thoughts in my mind, and said softly: "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight......"
