Chapter 282: My Fair Lady, Good Gentleman
Xiu Yu stood in front of the arch, her clothes were extremely thin, and when she saw her coming, she asked in surprise: "Mei Gongzi, why are you here, a scholar?" ”
"The scholar is still discussing with Xiangye in the Prime Minister's Mansion, saying that you are still sick, and I am afraid that you will wait at home for a long time, and I can't rest assured that you can't stop you, so he asked me to come and see it on his behalf." Mei Xiaoren replied indifferently, took off his cloak and held it in front of Xiuyu with both hands, "Miss Xiuyu is weak, don't catch a cold." ”
Xiuyu hesitated for a moment, motioned for the maid to take it, and said, "Thank you Mei Gongzi." ”
The maid took the cloak and draped it on Xiuyu's body.
"You're welcome." Mei Xiaoren looked at the courtyard and said with a smile, "This is Miss Xiuyu's residence, it is inconvenient to speak, is the girl's body important, if it doesn't matter, I want to ask the girl for advice on piano skills, can you change places?" ”
"Xiuyu's body is fine." Xiuyu turned around and ordered, "Jin'er, go get the qin." ”
The maid obeyed the order, and Mei Xiaoren and Xiuyu chose a quiet place to sit down and talk.
"I heard from the university scholar that Miss Xiuyu's piano skills are amazing, I wonder if Mei will be lucky enough to reward her?"
Xiu Yuwan smiled, her onion-like fingers stroked the strings, gently twisted slowly, and the gentle sound of the piano entered Mei Xiaoren's ears.
Mei Xiaoren is also a person who has been learning piano and dance since he was a child, of course, he can hear whether this Xiuyu has real skills, which shows that he can make the university scholars feel pity when they see him, and he relies on his real talent and learning in addition to his scheming.
She listened quietly, and the bright moon was already hanging high outside the gazebo. Weifu is a famous family, the rules are very strict, even if there is no master, the people who come and go are all buried in their own ways, and everywhere seems to be extremely quiet.
The sound of the piano broke through the cold night, and the sound was like heaven. Mei Xiaoren thinks that she is a shallow learner and doesn't want to compare with it, but she thinks that when it comes to playing the piano, her grandfather still plays the best.
In the past few days, she has been running around for the Wei scholar and his wife, either running back and forth in the city, or going out of the city, helping the Wei scholar to get rid of people, and comforting Mrs. Wei on the other hand, but she has snubbed the prime minister, and she will definitely compensate him well when she turns back.
When Xiuyu stroked the qin, she raised her eyes and saw Mei Gongzi's calm eyes, but there was a smile on her lips, and the smile became deeper and deeper...... Xiuyu's heart seemed to be confused, and the music was low for a moment.
Mei Xiaoren didn't notice it, and only came back to her senses after she finished playing, and applauded with a smile: "Miss Xiuyu is really exquisite. ”
Xiuyu lowered her head timidly, "Mei Gongzi praised it." ”
"Where, a talented woman like Miss Xiuyu is really hard to find, in comparison, there is really no one who can compare to you when a university scholar made those confidants in the past." Mei Xiaoren thought for a while and said, "For example, the Linglong girl in Jinzhou, I heard that the scholar had already met the Linglong girl when she was studying in Jinshan Academy, and she had known each other for several years, but there was still no result, after all, there was a ...... like Weifu."
She paused deliberately, paying attention to Xiuyu's expression, seeing that her face was a little darker, and then said: "I didn't mean to offend, I don't hide it, I am also from the Shu clan, and I can't compare with the family background of a scholar, let alone laugh at the girl." ”
"Xiuyu understands that although Mei Gongzi and Xiuyu are both Shu clans, I heard the people in the house say that Mei Gongzi is already the right hand of the prime minister, and Xiuyu is just a mediocre woman......"
"Miss Xiuyu, don't be presumptuous, no one can choose her background, but she can take her future in her own hands." Mei Xiaoren casually took a sip of the tea in front of her, looked around and asked, "What does Miss Xiuyu think of this university scholar's mansion, is it comfortable to live here?" ”
"Xiuyu heard the rumors outside, and she was always ashamed, Xiuyu knew that it was not appropriate to live here, and she wanted to move back to ......"
The corners of Mei Xiaoren's mouth rose, "Yantai, do you hear me, Miss Xiuyu wants to go back to the other garden, and she doesn't go to prepare the car." ”
The inkstone immediately responded: "Yes." ”
Xiuyu was stunned.
She looked at Xiuyu, the smile on her lips was still the same, "I originally thought that the girl couldn't understand the benefits, so I talked to the girl about the future, since the girl understands that it is not appropriate to live here, it is the best." He also said, "The scholar is not afraid of trouble, but how can the master of the Taishi allow the sand to blind his eyes and offend the master of the master, and talk about the future." ”
Xiuyu kept her eyes calm and didn't make a sound.
"What I want to mention to the girl is that you don't have to worry about the green mountains without firewood, don't let the glory in front of you become a cloud of smoke." Mei Xiaoren continued, "Of course, there is something to give in the world, I will tell the university scholar that the girl moved back to the outskirts of the city because of guilt, and I and other men like understanding girls, what good is this for the girl, I don't need to say it, right?" ”
"Why does Mei Gongzi want to ...... To think about so much for me? ”
"My Fair Lady, Gentleman." Mei Xiaoren replied without thinking, stretched out his hand, and picked the strings a few times.
Xiuyu lowered her head, gently stirred the silk in her hand, and only after a long time did she open her lips and whispered: "That...... Thank you Mei Gongzi. ”
Mei Xiaoren sent Xiuyu out of Shangjing, and it was already late at night.
Xiuyu is gone, and the cloak on her body has not been untied.
Mei Xiaoren had pretended to be hardy in front of the beautiful woman before, and only shivered when the carriage was far away, and his hands were on his shoulders.
The carriage was given to Xiuyu, and she asked Yantai to send Xiuyu to the other garden, beware of her tricks halfway, and she walked back from the south of the city alone.
Mei Xiaoren passed by a familiar place, and then remembered that he still had a mansion in the south of the city. At the beginning, she left the mansion to Ye Zhi, and soon after Ye Zhi recognized Wei Guogong as his father-in-law and moved to the Guogong Mansion to live with Wei Guogong, so this mansion has been idle until now.
Mei Xiaoren stood for a while, saw that the door of the house was unlocked, and walked towards the door, wanting to see inside.
She stretched out her hand to push, and the two doors slowly opened, making a low sound because they had not been taken care of for a long time.
As the voice fell, an upright figure appeared in her sight.
The sky was dark, people and ghosts were indistinguishable, and Mei Xiaoren's heart trembled.
The only light was a lantern on the table, and by the faint light she could barely see a man standing inside.
Later, the man looked back at her, and she recognized him, and the tense heartstrings were released, but her mood was a little heavy and she couldn't relax.
"Lord Fu Yin still has the heart to come here?" He asked faintly.
Mei Xiaoren turned her eyes to look at it, since the battlefield was goodbye, she hadn't met Ye Zhi yet, and she was the only one who saw him in the carriage last time.
"Just passing by." She replied indifferently.
The most likely person in Shangjing City to be here, except for her, is Ye Zhi, but I don't know why he came here......
When she looked ahead again, Ye Zhi had already turned around and walked towards her.
She found that Ye Zhi had changed now, and he became more and more not like a well-mannered scholar, his back was straight, and his cuffs were tightly tied, looking really like a person from martial arts.
