Chapter 188: Tragedy

"Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring. May you pick more, this thing is the most lovely. ”

Huang Yueying put down the white silk in her hand, picked up the string of hand beads made of red beans from the stone table, her cheeks were red, and she showed a happy smile.

This string of hand beads was wrapped in white silk and secretly handed to her by Gan Ning early in the morning.

It is said that this hand bead was worn by Cao Peng all night. The five-character poem on the white silk is also written by Cao Peng. Huang Yueying put the white silk on her cheeks, looking like a little woman. 'This thing is the most lovely'? Ah Fu still expressed his love after all...... "Ah Ugly, what are you doing?" ”

A deep voice sounded behind Huang Yueying.

Huang Yueying suddenly came to her senses, quickly stood up, and hid the white silk behind her.

"Dad, why are you here?"

"I've been here for a long time, and I saw you smirking here alone."

Huang Chengyan's face was gloomy, and he couldn't see the slightest smile.

In fact, he's been on that face for a while lately. On the surface, he discussed Huang Lao's technique with Ge Deru every day, and it seemed that he was too busy to pay attention to Huang Yueying. But secretly, Huang Chengyan's attention to Huang Yueying can be said to have not been relaxed for a moment. Watching Huang Yueying go out happily every day and return happily, Huang Chengyan didn't feel good in his heart.

How can a parent not want the good of his children?

But the question is...... Huang Chengyan's concept of portal is very strong!

The Jiangxia Huang clan is a well-known Jingxiangwang clan, and if Huang Yueying and Cao Peng are combined, it will inevitably make many people laugh. At this point, Huang Chengyan and his nephew Huang Jie are on the same front. Of course, he wants his daughter to be happy, but he also has to consider the family's face.

If Cao Peng is from a big family, Huang Chengyan may be able to reluctantly accept it.

But he ...... It's just a common person in Zhongyang Mountain, which is something that Huang Chengyan can't bear.

"What's on your hand?"

Huang Chengyan's eyes were very sharp, and he immediately saw the string of red bean hand beads on Huang Yueyinghao's wrist. At the same time, he also saw the white silk that Huang Yueying was hiding behind him.

"Well...... It is a handball. ”

"What's in your hand?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Is it that Cao Peng gave it to you again?"

"Hmm......" Huang Yueying lowered her head and replied softly. However, she reacted immediately and protested: "Daddy, in fact, Ah Fu's talent is very good. Didn't you praise him at the beginning? Also, his poetry is also very good, and he has also done the seven-word poem "Pan Zhenze" before, and even Zhang Zibu is amazed by it...... Dad, Ah Fu is a good person, why do you always target him? It's not ......."

"Really?"

Huang Yueying hurriedly handed the white silk to Huang Chengyan, "This is the five-character poem he just made." ”

"Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring...... May you pick more, this thing is the most lovely? ”

Huang Chengyan read the poems on the white silk, and a complex color flashed in his eyes. After a while, he sighed softly, "Ugly, it's not that my father is stubborn, it's really ...... That Cao Peng and your cousin have a hatred for ruining their family, if you are with him, it will be difficult to be a man sooner or later.

I don't deny that this five-character poem is good, but it doesn't mean anything.

I'm still saying that, I won't agree with you and his affairs...... Tomorrow, tomorrow we'll go. It's a mistake to bring you here this time. ”

"Huh?"

When Huang Yueying heard this, she was immediately shocked.

"Daddy, didn't you say you'd leave later?"

"I've changed my mind!"

"However, but Ah Fu is not in Wu County now, I always have to say goodbye to him. Daddy......"

"Hugh is long-winded, I have made up my mind." Huang Chengyan suddenly became angry and shouted. Looking at his daughter's sad and pleading face, Huang Chengyan couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. But when he saw the white silk in his hand, Huang Chengyan knew that he had to be ruthless at this time.

Yueying is obviously deeply rooted, if she continues to stay in Wu County, sooner or later something will happen.

For the sake of Yueying's happiness and the face of the Huang family, Huang Chengyan knew that he couldn't be soft-hearted no matter what.

"From this day forward, you are not allowed to take half a step out of this courtyard.

Someone, keep an eye on Miss...... She must not be allowed to leave. I'm going to say goodbye to my brother, and we'll leave after dark. ”

Huang Chengyan had a sense of imminent urgency.

The matter of Huang Yueying and Cao Peng was like a needle piercing his heart, which made him very uncomfortable.

Originally, he planned to leave in two days.

But after reading the poems on the white silk, Huang Chengyan knew that if he didn't leave, something might happen...... Therefore, he was ruthless, ignored Huang Yueying, and strode away.

As he walked, he thought: The kid from the Zhuge family that Degong had recommended to me before could be admitted to the school. Although the Zhuge family is not as good as the original, it is a Langya clan after all, and it will not be ashamed to say it...... Well, when I go back, ask Degong, and then take the school exam. If you can, settle the marriage as soon as possible, so as not to let Yueying think wildly and dream a lot at night.

Thinking of this, Huang Chengyan subconsciously grabbed the white silk in his hand.

Huang Yueying stood in the courtyard as if she had lost her soul, a little dazed and at a loss.

"Miss, go back to the house and clean up."

A maidservant stepped forward and whispered persuasion.

It was a good intention, but it annoyed Yueying.

"Go away, I don't need you to worry about my business."

With that, Huang Yueying rushed to the room. When she entered the house, she closed the door and shut the maid out of the house.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”It's a rare good weather.

Huating Lujiazhuang, the lanterns are colorful, filled with a strong sense of joy.

Cao Peng and Xiahou Lan came to Lujiazhuang with Xun Yan. Lu Xun went out very warmly to greet them and asked people to arrange them properly.

It can be seen that Lu Xun is very busy.

He is not only the one who wants to be the groom, but also the head of the entire Lu family. Huating Lu's is not as good as it was at the beginning. In the early years, the Lu family was an official for generations, Lu Xian was the Huangmen squire, Lu Jun was the western governor, and Lu Kang was the Lujiang Taishou...... And now, no one in the Lu family has come out.

This also caused Lu Xun to lower his posture and maneuver among those old people as a junior.

Watching Lu Xun greet everyone with ease, Cao Peng also had to sigh that this life can create a person...... Without a blow to the naΓ―ve, it turned out to be so. If it weren't for such a huge change in the family, it would not be the turn of a fifteen-year-old child.

If there is no experience in the Gang Discipline Portal, Lu Xun's achievements in the future may not be too big.

Cao Peng couldn't help but be a little envious, and at the same time a little happy.

He envied Lu Xun's calmness in the face of those old people, and at the same time he was secretly glad that he didn't have Lu Xun's experience.

Suffering can hone a person.

But if it weren't a last resort, who would want to accept these ordeals?

Cao Peng followed behind Xun Yan and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Suddenly, Cao Peng saw a person. In the corner not far away, a girl dressed in white was standing quietly.

There was no one around her, as if she was isolated from the crowd.

Cao Peng recognized at a glance that the girl was the woman he had seen in the garden of Lujiazhuang before.

"Sir, who is that woman?"

Looking in the direction of Cao Peng's finger, Xun Yan shook his head.

"I don't know. But looking at her clothes, she must be a child of the Lu family.

Bo Yan has two brothers, but I haven't heard of any sisters...... Well, it may be the son of Beifang. ”

Beifang is Lu Kang's family.

Cao Peng nodded suddenly.

For this girl in white, for some reason, Cao Peng always felt a little weird. Perhaps it was that night that the girl's look back that made a deep impression on her; Perhaps, it was the madness when she smashed the piano that made Cao Peng feel palpitations. Anyway, he didn't feel like something was right.

The girl's gaze stayed on Lu Xun's body.

A moment later, she quietly departed, as if she had come quietly, silently.

Because the next day, Lu Xun was going to Gu's house to greet his relatives. So I rested early in the morning...... It's still the same house that day, it's still the bed it was that day. Cao Peng couldn't tell why, anyway, he had insomnia again! Turning over and sitting up, Cao Peng walked out of the room.

As if by the ghost, he came to the flower hall again.

The wisteria flowers hanging down in the flower hall are even more gorgeous than the last time.

In the moonlight, small flowers bloom, rippling with the wind, like purple waves.

The faint fragrance of flowers made Cao Peng suddenly shudder. He paused under the wisteria flowers, closed his eyes, and remained motionless for a long time.

He finally remembered why he felt familiar with this floral fragrance.

He had ever smelled the aroma.

Cao Peng hurriedly returned to the room and woke Xia Houlan from her sleep.

"Ziyou, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter?"

Xia Houlan opened her eyes sleepily, yawned and said, "Is there anything that can't be asked after dawn?" I'm so sleepy! ”

"No, this matter must be asked now, human lives are at stake."

"Okay, okay, you ask."

"Do you remember that Roke enemy of the Dantu?"

"Of course I do." Xiahou Lan scratched her head and asked with a blank expression, "Didn't he go to Haixi?" That night, I was in a room with him and talked a lot. What, something happened to that guy? Impossible...... How do you know he's in trouble? ”

"Who told you something happened to him?"

"Didn't you say that human lives matter......

Cao Peng couldn't help crying and laughing, and waved his hand, "It's not this thing." I want to ask you, did Luo Kedi tell you that the family he stole in Wu County was that family? ”

"This ...... It seems to have been mentioned.

But I don't remember it well. ”

"How can you not remember? Hurry up, think about it. ”

Xiahou Lan frowned, and tried to recall for a long time, and then said softly: "I only remember that Luo Kedi seems to have said that the family he stole was an outsider. It seems to be a surname...... Look at my brain, I really can't remember it all of a sudden, it seems to be my surname ......"

"Lee?"

"Uh, that's right, it's surnamed Li."

"Your name is Li Jing?"

"I don't remember this exactly."

Cao Peng wandered around the house, but Xia Houlan felt that the second monk was confused.

However, he also knew that since Cao Peng asked him so, there must be something important. Therefore, he didn't ask again, but watched Cao Peng wander around the room and was silent for a long time.

"By the way, what about my package?"

"Oh, I put it on the shelf."

As she spoke, Xia Houlan stood up, walked to the side shelf, and took off a black cloth package.

After Cao Peng took the package, he opened it on the bed. Xia Houlan lit a candle and stood behind Cao Peng. In addition to some miscellaneous items, there were two black lacquer boxes in the package. Cao Peng doesn't have a lot of luggage, so most of the time, he will carry it with him.

He opened the two boxes, and saw two stacks of Zuobo paper inside.

One stack is lavender, and the other is pale green.

Placing two stacks of Zuobo paper side by side on the couch, Cao Peng took a deep breath.

"Isn't this the box of love letters that Roque's enemies stole from him?" Xia Houlan pointed to the lilac Zuo Bo paper, and the color of doubt in her eyes was even stronger.

"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman! ”

Cao Peng stared at the two stacks of Zuo Bo paper, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "Ziyou, do you see anything?" ”

"Didn't see anything ......"

"It's all Zuobo paper, and they all have unique markings.

The purple Zuobo paper should be written by a woman, and the love poems written are all in the Book of Songs; The green Zuobo paper should be ......"

Cao Peng shook his head suddenly, and said to himself: "No, it shouldn't be like this." ”

Xiahou Lan was surprised and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Cao Peng waved his hand, "Don't speak, let me think again."

I always feel that there seems to be a very mysterious connection between these two stacks of paper. But I couldn't think of any of the tricks involved...... Let me think. Ziyou, you go to sleep first. I'll be quiet, you don't take care of me anymore...... Whew, that's a lot of fun. ”

was even more confused by Cao Peng's words.

However, Xia Houlan still accompanied Cao Peng and sat quietly next to her.

Time passed little by little, and Xia Houlan's sleepiness came to her. He had been driving for a day, and he was already tired! was tossed by Cao Peng for half the night, and finally couldn't stay up at this moment, and before he knew it, he fell asleep. When the early summer sun shone into the room through the window, Xiahou Lan woke up suddenly. Cao Peng was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly. Two stacks of Zuobo paper were spread out on the bed, looking particularly messy.

"Ah Fu, wake up!"

Cao Peng opened his eyes suddenly, and sat up straight.

"What time is it?"

"It's almost time...... Why don't you sleep for a while and I'll wake up Mr.? ”

"Forget it, don't sleep!" Cao Peng waved his hand, stood up and stretched.

Xia Houlan asked curiously, "What's the matter, what are the gains?" ”

Cao Peng smiled: "Yes...... When your mind is confused, don't think about things, otherwise you will get more and more confused. ”

"And then?"

"It's gone!"

Xia Houlan couldn't cry or laugh, looked at Cao Peng and said, "You have such a harvest this night?" ”

"How else?" Cao Peng said, put away all the Zuo Bo papers, and put them into two boxes. Then, he stretched his waist hard, moved his body bones, and said to Xiahoulan: "Let's go, call Mr. up, today is Lu Boyan's great joy." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” early in the morning, the morning sun is rising.

Lu Xun was wearing a bright red auspicious suit and sat on a white horse. On the horse's neck, there is also a big red silk tied around it, which looks particularly energetic.

The welcoming team was assembled at the gate of Lujiazhuang early.

Lu Xun was radiant, and in the blessings of relatives and friends, he greeted the rising sun, led the team to welcome relatives, and left in a mighty way.

Xun Yan and other guests who came to watch the ceremony did not accompany them to greet their relatives, but gathered together in groups of three or five under the greeting of the children of the Lu family.

Cao Peng stood in a secluded corner, without saying a word, staring at a person.

The girl in white yesterday changed into a faintly red dress today. She stood under an ancient locust tree, as brilliant as a flame......
