The moon is very high; The whole night sky was as quiet as ink, and the holy goddess of light hung high in the sky, looking down haughtily and indifferently from everything below.

In the light of the moon, a light boat sailed past them; The man on the boat suddenly shouted:

"Lord Shen! We're really fated to do it. ”

It's Liu Tingbing, and there is only one person. Shen Ruoyu asked in surprise:

"Second young master, don't your brother, sister-in-law and sister come out to play?"

Liu Tingbing instructed the boatman to go on two boats in parallel, and said to Shen Ruoliao:

"We came out together, and they took a different boat that was a little bigger. I thought it was freer and more interesting to be alone, so I got on a boat. Do you want to try the mooncakes of our Liufu? ”

He took out a box of mooncakes and handed them them. The mooncakes are very delicate and small, and they are obviously all high-quality ingredients. Shen Ruoyu took a piece, smiled and took out his moon cake, and said:

"This is made by the two of us ourselves, although it is not as good as the craftsmanship of your house, but do you want to taste it?"

Liu Tingbing happily took a piece and sighed:

"Such a beautiful day, it is a pity that there is no beautiful woman to accompany you. There is a lady next to the adult, but Ting Bing is alone. If only Yun'er were here. ”

"Still thinking about Jiaoyun Niang?" Shen Ruoyu sneered, "People are now on Jing Yuluo's boat." ”

Another boat rowed past them; When a man and a woman on the boat heard his words, they burst out laughing:

"Is it on the boat or in bed?"

There were not only Jing Yuluo and Jiao Yunniang on the boat, but also Hong Jiang, who had obviously been uncomfortable alone for a long time, and seeing Shen Ruoyu was like seeing a relative, calling out for brothers again and again. Then, he jumped onto Liu Tingbing's boat, and in the name of keeping the three boats balanced, avoiding the pair of mandarin ducks who kept flirting.

"There are moon cakes," Jing Yuluo saw the moon cakes on Shen Ruoyu's boat, and couldn't help but reach out and grab them, and unceremoniously grabbed a few pieces and shared them with Jiao Yunniang. Nangong Qiu also picked up a piece, broke it in half, and handed half to Shen Ruoyu.

The two men on the other boat could only watch the woman they liked leaning on the other man's arms to divide the moon cakes, and neither their eyes nor their thoughts stopped at themselves for a moment, and they were naturally extremely melancholy.

Liu Tingbing couldn't help but sigh: "The autumn wind is lonely Qin Huaiyue, and the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless. ”

Shen Ruoyu heard him sigh, turned around and looked at Shang Hongjiang's focused and melancholy gaze on Nangong Qiu, his heart moved slightly, and said loudly:

"By the way, these mooncakes made by me and Qiu'er all look the same, but one of them is very special. Everyone comes and eats it and sees who can eat it. ”

"There's something special?" Nangong Qiu asked in surprise.

Shen Ruoyu smiled: "That's right; But I can't see it from the outside, I can't even tell it myself, only those who eat it know. ”

"You put something in there?" Nangong Qiu shouted, "What did you put away, why didn't you tell me in advance?" ”

Shen Ruoyu said mysteriously: "Of course I can't tell you; Everyone comes to eat moon cakes, and whoever eats them will give that thing to Qiu'er as a birthday gift for you. What do you think? ”

"Is it Madame's birthday?" Liu Tingbing and Jing Yuluo both asked in surprise.

Hong Jiang had long known that he sat aside and did not speak.

Jiao Yunniang giggled: "Since this is the case, that piece of moon cake must be eaten in Lord Shen's mouth, there is no suspense." ”

"What, don't you all want to celebrate Qiu'er's birthday?" Shen Ruoyu asked rhetorically.

"Why, I wish I had this honor to give my wife a birthday gift, or let me eat two more pieces?" Jing Yuluo quipped.

"I'll come first," Liu Tingbing raised the half-eaten mooncake that Shen Ruoxiao gave him in his hand, "There's nothing in this piece anyway." Can I still eat two more pieces? ”

Shen Ruoyu said: "Of course; There's so much more to it here. ”

Jing Yuluo hugged Jiao Yunniang, her mouth was stuffed, and she said vaguely:

"No, no, and more, and ......"

Shen Ruoyu saw that Hong Jiang didn't move, and said with a smile: "Brother Hong Jiang, you can eat too, what's polite." ”

Hong Jiang smiled melancholy, took a piece, hesitated, didn't bite it, but broke it directly, and saw that there was only pure stuffing in it, and he was a little depressed, so he had to eat it.

Shen Ruoyu has been secretly observing Hongjiang; If he really let this opponent eat the birthday gift, he really doesn't know if he will be angry.

Seeing the mooncakes going down piece by piece, no one ate anything. Shen Ruoyu was a little strange. Hong Jiang couldn't hold it back. Others had more and more expectant expressions on their faces. Soon, everyone had already made their stomachs, and there were only two mooncakes left. Liu Tingbing burped and said:

"No, you can eat these two pieces, I really can't eat them."

Nangong Qiu looked at Shen Ruoliao with blank eyes:

"Can I eat a piece? Why don't you let me eat it? What if I eat it myself? ”

"That's boring," said Jing Yuluo, "Madame can't touch it." ”

Shen Ruoyu asked, "Brother Jing, can you still eat?" I don't seem to be able to hold on to it. ”

Jing Yuluo shook his head: "There are only two pieces in total." I eat Jingyuluo, and it is not okay not to share it with Yun'er. If both pieces are given to us, there will be no suspense. If I divide a piece and eat it, who do you think it should be? Is it me or Yun'er? ”

"Then it's only Brother Hongjiang," Shen Ruoyu smiled a little unnaturally. He covered up and brought the plate to Hong Jiang. "You take it first; The rest is mine. ”

Hong Jiang looked at him silently, then looked at Nangong Qiu, hesitated for a while, and didn't decide whether to stretch out his hand. Jing Yuluo and Jiao Yunniang already knew Hong Jiang's thoughts about Nangong Qiu, so they didn't speak, but only watched from the sidelines; Liu Tingbing also saw the clue at this moment, and looked at the two of them with some surprise.

At that moment, a painting boat floated down the river, getting closer and closer to their three boats. The quiet and moving sound of the piano floated out from the covered bamboo curtain, like a jade bead ice spring, mournful and resentful, not at all as happy as the sound of flutes floating from the green buildings of restaurants on both sides of the river and the flower boats on the river. When the six people heard the sound of the piano, they were in a daze for a while, as if the noise around them was suddenly alienated and blurred, only the sad sound of the piano fell one by one on the long Qinhuai River, like a rain.

The sound of the piano stopped suddenly; They involuntarily turned their heads, and the painting boat had already sailed in front of them, it was not too big, and the decoration was very simple and elegant, beautiful and subtle. Through the low-hanging bamboo curtains on all sides, the orange light softly cast the standing shadow of a maid on the bamboo curtain, and there was a quiet sitting figure of a woman on the side; For a moment, the six people and the three boatmen did not make a sound, but were just stunned.

A young woman's voice asked:

"Brother Boat, where are you?"

The boatman replied, "It's time to go to Momobadu." ”

The maid's shadow turned in a different direction and bowed her head to the seated woman.

"Miss Liang, I've arrived at Taoyedu."

A woman's voice, as quiet and touching as the sound of the piano, said softly:

"Momohato?"

The boat and the three boats were moving slowly together. A string of plucked strings was fleeting, but the aftermath rippled on the surface of the river for a long time.

The woman's voice rang out again:

"It is said that this place has been turbulent and dangerous since ancient times, and it seems that this water is quite calm now."

She sighed softly and groaned with some amazement:

"Peach leaves are peach leaves, peach trees are peach roots. Pity for each other, and make me diligent alone. ”

The six people listened silently, and their hearts were sad; But the voice was silent. For a time, the river was so empty and deserted. Liu Tingbing couldn't help but open his mouth and continued:

"Peach leaves are peach leaves, and you don't need to cross the river. But there is no suffering, and I will welcome you. ”

The woman in the painting boat hesitated for a moment, and said softly:

"Rouge, go and see what kind of layman is outside."

The lights flickered. The bamboo curtain gently lifted a corner, and a young maid poked her head out, a little surprised to see the three boats in front of her.

Liu Tingbing stood up and saluted: "Excuse me; We happen to have a friend's wife here is celebrating her birthday in the Mid-Autumn Festival today, and I am very sorry if I disturb Miss Yaxing. ”

The woman sitting upright in the boat heard this, and said calmly:

"I see; On the birthday of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I think it is the moon fairy descending to earth, and passers-by should congratulate them. Rouge, you take a plate of moon cakes and give it to a few guests, let's talk about birthday gifts. ”

Shen Ruoyu hurriedly said: "Don't be, Miss is too polite, we don't know each other, how can we accept gifts from others casually." What's more-a few of us have eaten too many mooncakes this night, and we really can't eat them, so please don't make a big fuss, I and I have received your wishes. ”

"It's the lady who has passed her birthday," said the woman, "'When we meet in the water, we are all guests from other places,' and the officials need not be so polite." When the moon is full, when the whole world celebrates, this plate of moon cakes is not a precious thing. ”

Shen Ruoyu had an idea and said: "Since this is the case, it should also be me and Cheap Nei, please Miss You eat moon cakes." ”

He brought the tray in his hand to the maid.

"Although there are only two pieces here, there is one of them, and there is a small birthday gift wrapped in the filling, and if someone eats it, ask that person to personally deliver the gift to the birthday boy. Xiao Ke was offended, so he asked the young lady to pick one of the two pieces, and the remaining one was given to one of Xiao Ke's friends. ”

The woman thought for a moment and said, "This is the first time that a concubine has heard of this idea of giving a birthday gift. Presumably the officials themselves came up with it, right? You're such a caring person. If the two of them look up to the concubine like this, the concubine will pick this piece of moon cake with a shy face. ”

The maid took the plate, turned and went into the boat, and held it before her master. Soon, she pulled the plate out again, and there was only one piece left in it.

Shen Ruoyu took the plate, looked back at Hong Jiang, and did not speak.

Hong Jiang looked at him, didn't speak, picked up the last piece of moon cake, but waited for a while, waiting for the woman in the painting boat to speak.

The woman, however, was evidently savoring, and did not move for a moment. Hong Jiang couldn't wait, and finally couldn't help but stuff the mooncake into his mouth and take a small bite.

Jing Yuluo laughed at him: "I said brother, even if the girl in the boudoir eats moon cakes, she will never eat it like you, do you plan to eat it until next year?" ”

Hong Jiang's face was red, his heart was red, he took a big bite, and bit off half of the entire moon cake.

He was disappointed; There was nothing in it except the unchanged lotus seed paste.

He wiped out the moon cake in two bites, and then, without saying a word, looked at Nangong Qiu, waiting for the mysterious woman in the painting boat to personally send the gift.

Shen Ruoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, didn't speak, just waited like everyone else. Everyone was waiting for the woman to show up.

Mooncakes are actually quite small; But the woman seemed to have eaten for a long, long time. Finally, the calm and soft voice floated out through the bamboo curtain again:

"It seems that another piece of mooncake has won; There is nothing in this piece of the concubine. ”

Shen Ruoyu was stunned when she heard this. Hong Jiang exclaimed incredulously: "No?!" ”

The six of them looked at each other, and for a moment they all felt like they had seen a ghost.

Shen Ruoyu suddenly had an epiphany, and laughed:

"Brother Jing! Brother Jing - Hurry up and hand it over. ”

Jing Yuluo was slightly stunned, and pretended to be stupid: "What to hand over?" ”

Shen Ruoyu smiled and said: "Come on, Brother Jing, you have already eaten it, and you are secretly hiding it from us, and you plan to give it to Jiao Yunniang, right?" Look at what garlic you have in front of us, who doesn't know what kind of goods you are. ”

Jing Yuluo said in surprise: "Ruoxiao, you have wronged me like this? You don't look at how unpalatable your mooncakes are? I drank too much, so I had to pretend to eat two more pieces? ”

"Okay, do you dare to say that the mooncakes made by Qiu'er are unpalatable?" Shen Ruoyu frowned, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't talk nonsense, do you want me to beat you up before you can admit it?" ”

Jing Yuluo sneered: "Knowing that your adult's skills are invincible in the world, I, Jing Yuluo, don't eat this set." If you have the ability, you can let the horse come over, and let the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty talk about it tomorrow and say that you, Lord Shen, knocked a person into the water in the Qinhuai River, and see who can hold it on his face. ”

Shen Ruoyu said: "Still energetic? Do it with people like you, and I'll drop the price. However, I would love to kick you down, and then the beautiful woman next to you will be at my mercy. ”

When he said this, he kept hugging Nangong Qiu tightly, letting her know that she was just joking.

Jing Yuluo said: "Lao Tzu has grown so big, this is the first time someone has publicly called me to rob a woman?" - You don't count, Second Young Master Liu, we were joking that time. - I said Yun'er, you can hear Lord Shen's words clearly, if I fall into the water, you must be as strong as jade and unyielding. ”

Jiao Yunniang pushed him and sneered: "With Lord Shen here, who still cares about you." I'm going to push you down now. ”

"Alas, alas—" Jing Yuluo shouted, "Alright, well, I've lost; I lost to you even as a woman, why do I still desperately want this pair of broken ears. ”

He spread out his palms like a trick, and a pair of delicate earrings lay in the palms of his palms. He took one to Jiao Yunniang, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled heartily, dragged Nangong Qiu over, one on each side, and hung the earrings on the earlobes of the birthday star.

The phoenix pendant inlaid with beads dangled under Nangong Qiu's ears, absorbing all the light between heaven and earth, the bright moonlight, the brilliant lights, the reflection of the river, and the different lights that flashed in everyone's eyes, all of which perfectly melted in the crystal clear pearl and jade, constantly reflecting in all directions, reflecting Nangong Qiu's cheeks more and more delicate, and a pair of bright eyes were as immortal as the phoenix pendant. Shen Ruoxiao and Hong Jiang couldn't help but be stunned. Liu Tingbing couldn't help but admire:

"It's beautiful! The moonlight is beautiful, the lights are beautiful, the water is beautiful, the pearlescent is beautiful, and the beauty of Jinling is not as good as the beauty of this person in front of you. ”

Jiao Yunniang looked at the painting boat, smiled lightly, and said, "Look at the smoke in the world, I'm afraid there is no second one." ”

She has something to say; The other five, however, heard nothing. At this time, Liu Tingbing also glanced at the painting boat, and even he didn't know why. He happened to see that the bamboo curtain on the side wall of the painting boat was lifted, and a woman was quietly looking at them from the window, looking intently at Nangong Qiu who was surrounding them.

At this moment, the moon suddenly burrowed into the thin clouds. The heavens and the earth were darkened, a breeze blew, the shadows of the trees rustled, and it seemed that all the lights had dimmed, and the soft orange of the painting boat had faded, leaving only the beautiful face of the fairy. There is still lively singing and dancing music around, but he can't hear anything, he can't see anything, only the Qinhuai River soup soup flowing close at hand under the night, the inky black river like the night, quiet like the Milky Way in the sky, the stars are sparkling and shining, and on the other side of the Milky Way, a fairy in a dream is looking at him across the bank, except for her, he can't see anything.

Shen Ruoyu noticed Liu Tingbing's demented appearance, which was a little strange, and followed his gaze. The woman also noticed Liu Tingbing's stunning gaze at this time, and immediately lowered the curtain to cover everything.

Shen Ruoyu didn't see anything, and was even more puzzled, raised his hand and shook it in front of Liu Tingbing's eyes, and said:

"What are you looking at?"

Liu Tingbing woke up, and there was nothing in front of him. He sighed, still looking dejected, staring at the figure on the bamboo curtain of the painting boat, shook his head, and groaned in amazement:

"The crowd is looking for him a thousand times. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, and the lights were dim. ”

Shen Ruoyu had just chanted this sentence to Nangong Qiu, and at this moment, when he saw Liu Tingbing reading the same sentence in confusion, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He followed his gaze and looked again, only to see a tightly covered painting boat and a still shadow on the bamboo curtain.

He seemed to vaguely sense something, and said loudly to the painting boat:

"Distinguished guests from the neighboring boat, Pingshui meeting is fate, such a beautiful day, and thanks to Miss Eat a piece of moon cake made in the cheap, I wonder if Miss can enjoy her face to the bow of the boat, everyone has a drink of the moon?"

But the woman in the painting boat said lightly:

"Lord Shen has a good intention, but the cheap concubine really doesn't dare to be it, so she can only understand it. There are zero passengers floating on the water, regardless of whether they are high or low. The concubine was fortunate enough to get the moon cakes given by the adults and his wife, which was already a blessing from the previous life. As for drinking with the moon, 'when you wake up, you will have sex with each other, and when you are drunk, you will scatter together', which will only increase your sadness, so why bother. The concubine is sincerely willing to be ruthless with several nobles, and they are strangers to each other, but they don't know each other, and they don't return to each other. This cup of sake, please forgive the concubine for being difficult to accompany. ”

With that, she gave a word to the boatman, and the boat quickened its speed, and soon came ahead of them, and went farther and farther away, and gradually disappeared into the night.

Shen Ruoyu sighed helplessly and comforted Liu Tingbing:

"A noble lord, you can only wait for fate."

"Who is she?" Nangong Qiu asked.

Shen Ruoyu shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, I can't guess. The woman spoke so strangely that it was impossible to tell who she was. ”

"I can play the piano well," Hong Jiang sighed, "She has a good conversation, and she is a talented woman." ”

Jiao Yunniang has been lying in Jing Yuluo's ear, whispering something. Neither was involved in the comments.

Liu Tingbing was the only one who was still looking at the direction of the painting boat and staring at it for a long time. He groaned softly:

"The moon is harvested, and the clouds are light and frosty. Thinking of Jiaoyun, several times by the railing. I don't like flowers, I prefer flowers, and infatuation is the most bitter. All go, tonight the jade pillow falls frost and dew. The green waves rippled, and the Yi people returned from then on. Looking for traces, there are thousands of mountains to obstruct. This body is incarnated, the blue water follows, and the blue boat returns. Looking back, when will you allow Taoye to do it again? ”

It's so easy to fall in love at first sight. Shen Ruoyu lowered his head, looked at Nangong Qiu in his arms, and suddenly thought that in fact, he and Qiu'er also fell in love at first sight - right; and fathers and mothers; Even, isn't Hong Jiang just the first sight, and he has since recognized Qiu'er.

Taoye Ferry is a famous ferry port on the Qinhuai River since ancient times, named after the peach leaf of the concubine of the great calligrapher Wang Xianzhi. Taoye Ferry is located at the mouth of the river, the water is rapid and deep, capsizing occurs from time to time, Taoye is always very afraid every time he crosses the river by boat and meets Wang Xianzhi. Wang Xianzhi always picked up Peach Leaf in person at the ferry, and specially wrote several poems "Peach Leaf Crossing" for her, and the upper and lower sentences of Liu Tingbing picking up the woman on the painting boat just now are two of them. From then on, when the peach leaves crossed the river in a boat, they had to sing the song that their lover wrote to themselves, and they were no longer afraid in their hearts. The name of Momohado also spread, and since then it has replaced the original name of the ferry, Nanpudu, which has been passed down to this day.

Perhaps since then, Momohadu has been closely linked to people's love and fate, and even sometimes seems to be regarded as a symbol and sustenance by literati. Shen Ruoyu looked at Liu Tingbing's unruly appearance, felt a little sympathetic in his heart, and gently patted Liu Tingbing's shoulder. Liu Tingbing lowered his head dejectedly, and chanted the third sentence of "Peach Leaf Crossing" sadly:

"Peach leaves are peach leaves, and crossing the river does not wait for the oar. The turmoil is impermanent, and there is no life to cross Jiangnan. ”

This sentence is a little too frustrating, and it completely swept away everyone's Mid-Autumn Festival. Seeing that the situation was not good, Jing Yuluo immediately gave full play to his strengths and said a few nonsense words unscrupulously, which remedied the atmosphere.

Nangong Qiu asked, "Second Young Master Liu wrote the poem just now, right?" ”

Hong Jiang said: "You know it as soon as you hear it; Except for the first sentence, which quotes Liu Ci "Lotus Picking Order", the others are all original works of Second Young Master Liu. ”

"Second Young Master Liu's words, of course, are also willow words," Shen Ruoyu said with a smile, "The style is so similar." I said young master, could it be that you are after Liu Sanchang? ”

Liu Tingbing blushed and said, "Lord Shen has lifted it; Ting Bing's level is still difficult to match compared to Liu Sanchang. ”

"Second Young Master Liu is modest," Jing Yuluo said with a smile, "'Where there is a place to drink well water, you can sing willow words', which shows that willow words are extremely approachable, popular and not flattering, just like this one of yours, not only is it affectionate, but even the liver and intestines of Liu Ci have learned home." No wonder Yun'er always likes to ask you to write words for her. ”

Liu Tingbing was a little surprised when he heard that Jing Yuluo, who was still scornful of his rival in love when they met for the first time, praised him when they met for the second time, and he was not sure if he was talking back.

"I won't have that blessing in the future," Jiaoyun Niang teased, "Listen, just now I still miss Jiaoyun, how many times I leaned on the railing', and in the blink of an eye, I will go to the jade pillow tonight, and now there is only the 'Yiren' of Taoyedu in people's hearts, and I want to turn into blue water and follow other people's Lanzhou." Really, 'But when the new man laughs, the old man cries'. ”

Liu Tingbing smiled awkwardly and melancholy, and did not speak again.

They played late, and everyone had a great time. Nangong Qiu had already fallen asleep in his arms as Shen Ruoyu wished. Six men went ashore.

Jing Yuluo sent Jiao Yunniang back to the Yuchun Tower nearby, and then walked with them in the direction of home. Liu Tingbing quickly said goodbye to them and turned onto Sanshan Street. Shen Ruoyu was left holding the second-rate son in one hand, carrying Nangong Qiu on his back, and walking unhurriedly with Hong Jiang and Jing Yuluo.

The moon is bright; The streets were still lit up with festive lights, but there were almost no people anymore, and it was dark and deserted.

Jing Yuluo opened his mouth and said, "Second Young Master Liu has taken a fancy to the woman in the painting boat, right?" ”

Shen Ruoyu sighed: "Yes, obviously. He probably saw her face, none of us saw it, it is estimated that she is a great beauty, otherwise he would not have empathized with her in the blink of an eye, leaving your Jiaoyun Niang behind, "Go too, the jade pillow will fall frost and dew tonight." ”

Jing Yuluo said: "That's for sure, it's strange if he doesn't empathize and don't fall in love." That woman is a man who will be as dissouled as he is when he sees it. ”

"What, do you recognize her?"

Jing Yuluo said: "I have indeed seen her; But I don't know her. ”

"Who is she?"

Jing Yuluo said: "At first, I really didn't know that she was in the painting boat. To be honest, if Yun'er hadn't told me quietly, I'm afraid I wouldn't have thought of it by now. You can't think of it, right? That boat is the painting boat of the Yuchun Tower. ”

Shen Ruoliao and Hong Jiang were both taken aback. "Yuchun Tower?"

Jing Yuluo nodded. "On a night like this, all the girls who have no owner in the Yuchun Mansion are on the big flower boat, and people like Yun'er are with their guests. But only one person can sit on that boat, and there is no red lantern with the name of the Qinglou on it, because the women inside are not takeaway. ”

"The Oiran Niangniang of the Yuchun Tower, the so-called No. 1 beauty in Zhili?"

Jing Yuluo said: "It's not so-called, she is; And I dare to say that she is not only in the territory of Zhili, but also very likely to be the most beautiful person in the world. ”

"Not necessarily, the so-called beauty and ugliness are not radish and cabbage, ring fat and swallow thin;" Shen Ruoyu smiled in disbelief; He had to maintain his biological mother's status as the number one beauty in the world no matter what, and said, "You said that a man would be disillusioned when he saw her, so why don't you go to her, don't you go to me and me with your Yun'er every day, Wushan**." ”

Jing Yuluo said: "That's not the same thing at all, don't talk like you're not a man, you should know what the difference between a face and a person." ”

"Sometimes, it probably doesn't make a difference," Shen Ruoyu said, "Otherwise, what do you say is love at first sight?" ”

"That's called fate, the sky is destined," Hong Jiang interjected depressedly.

Jing Yuluo said: "If you see Liang Rushui, you will understand that even if you have a strong will, even if you are hard-hearted, even if you are not a flesh-and-blood living person, you will not be able to resist her face." But when you calm down alone, you will find that while this beauty captures the hearts of all men, it also naturally rejects all men from thousands of miles away, because her face really can't be mortal, and no one will have the courage to approach her, let alone touch her. No matter how beautiful Guanyin Bodhisattva is, it will always be an ornament on the throne for you, and you can't be your confidante, let alone your wife. ”

Shen Ruoyu secretly sighed in her heart; He felt that his current situation was a bit similar to marrying a Guanyin Bodhisattva at home, and he absolutely couldn't move. Didn't Nightshade tell him a long time ago? On his wedding night, she had already foreseen all this.

He asked, "So, are you going to redeem Jiaoyun Niang and marry her?" ”

Jing Yuluo was slightly stunned: "I didn't think about it; Probably not. Wouldn't it be terrible if one day we suddenly hated each other and became husband and wife. ”

"The person you loved, if you don't have such a great hatred as killing your father and mother, how can you easily hate it." Shen Ruoyu said with some bitterness.

Jing Yuluo laughed: "I'm different from you, I don't know what to love or hate." I don't think I love Yun'er much, I can still eat and sleep soundly without her, but I have to have a woman by my side, right? I don't look down on anyone else, so it's her. She is the same, she also needs a man to raise her and spoil her, as for whether she loves or not, she can't see or touch, and she is not a little girl who is thirteen or fourteen years old and has not yet come out of the cabinet, so she has to coax her with some poetry. ”

Shen Ruoyu smiled helplessly: "Brother Jing's words, but he scolded me so much that I was ashamed." By the way, what did you just say, what is that beauty's name...... Cool as water at night? ”

"Liang is like water."

Shen Ruoyu thought about it. "I'd like to see this Liang Rushui," he said with interest, "to see if she has the qualifications to be the first beauty in the world." You've got to help me find a chance. ”

Jing Yuluo said: "What way can I go?" I'm definitely not as good as you in the capital right now. I only go to Jiaoyun Pavilion every time I go to Yuchun Tower, and the rest are all 'take the flowers and lazy review'. If you want to see Liang Rushui, she is not in the Yuchun Tower, but in an attic specially opened for her in the backyard. The attic is called Penglai Pavilion, but if you open your mouth and ask Penglai Pavilion as soon as you enter the Yuchun Tower, you will be kicked out immediately. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, it's a big name, it's not enough to be rich, you have to use your brain to see it. ”

Penglai Pavilion, this name is a bit kitsch when used on this Liang Rushui at the moment. Shen Ruoyu said softly:

"I don't want to see her, a girl in a green house who has never known her life, and I have nothing to say to her. I just wanted to see her face, I didn't want her to see me. So I won't ask Penglai Pavilion at all, I will find a way to sneak over and take a sneak peek. ”

Jing Yuluo said: "Then you can be careful; Don't think you're the only one who has hit this idea, the Yuchun Mansion is not fasting, and several prostitutes have broken their legs as thieves, even if they steal a glance. Let's see if our invincible Shen Qiufeng has this ability. ”

"And how did you meet her?"

"Hey, you don't care about that."

Hong Jiang whispered on the side:

"You're going to see Liang Rushui, don't you want to think about Qiu'er's feelings?"

Shen Ruoyu was slightly stunned, Nangong Qiu was still sleeping soundly on his back.

He said, "I can't betray one Guanyin Bodhisattva, just to find another Guanyin Bodhisattva. I just want to see if Liang Rushui is more beautiful than my mother. ”

Hong Jiang and Jing Yuluo were both taken aback. "Then you better not go; Imaginary things, I'm afraid you will be disappointed. ”

Shen Ruoyu said casually: "That's better." ”

These were his last words; When his mother spoke, he fell into a deep depression. Along the way, the two of them could no longer get a word out of his mouth.
