Chapter 4: Peony has no demons

"Father," he saluted Duanmujun, Duanmu Qing turned to Duanmu He again, and said with a slight smile, "The second brother is also here!" ”

It was rare to see his daughter so well-behaved, Duanmu Jun couldn't help but feel better, and his face looked much better, but thinking of the intention of calling her over today, he immediately made a straight face.

"As soon as I returned home today, I heard Manager Bai say that I saw your brother and sister outside, but you were dressed as a little girl, and I thought I had seen it wrong, can you explain it to me?" Duanmu Jun's voice had a stern flavor.

The head of this mansion is really surnamed Li! There was a cold smile on Duanmu Qing's lips, but when he raised his head, he looked calm, "Daddy, my daughter won't be next time." ”

"So, you admit it? Do you know that it is against the rules of your family to run away like this? But you have to be grounded for three months. As soon as Duanmuhe was called, he heard a bunch of justifications for her, but he didn't want his daughter to admit it.

"Second uncle, is it He'er's, I have to pull my sister out, and my sister has no choice but to agree when I am entangled." Hearing this, Duanmuhe immediately stood up and said.

This second brother is really ......

I couldn't help but slander in my heart, with my father's understanding of the two of them, how could he believe it.

"Daddy, in fact, Qing'er wanted to go out by herself, and she was annoyed that the second brother took me there." Duanmu Qing's face didn't have a trace of worry, as if he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at all, "I also know that as the eldest lady of the deep boudoir, I really shouldn't just run out, but I am in a hurry, and with the second brother here, I really don't have to worry about anything." ”

"In a hurry? What else is there to do when you leave the house? ”

Stretched out his hand and took a camphor wood box from Lu Xi's hand and handed it to Duanmu Jun, "That year, my father's Qianye Baihu was broken, although my father didn't blame it, but Qing'er knew that my father's heart was sad, and I heard that the old man Lu Ji was passing by Tianjing a few days ago, so I took it to him to repair it, and I was worried that the next person didn't know the original appearance of this Qianye Baihu, so I went to find him myself." ”

Hearing Duanmu Qing's words, Duanmu Jun's eyes flashed with excitement, and he immediately opened the box, only to see a one-foot-long wood carving, shaped like a plum branch, but it was a bamboo leaf, with a thin flower blooming one by one, but it was the appearance of a chrysanthemum, exuding a faint fragrance of orchids.

This is just a handicraft, but Duanmu Qing knows that this thing is very important in Duanmu Jun's heart, as for why, she doesn't know, and she doesn't really want to know.

Looking at the things in front of them, they were exactly the same as they were back then, and they couldn't even see the cracks they had fallen, as if they had carved them with their own hands, and they hadn't experienced any damage.

"Qing'er, you ......"

"Daddy, I was wrong back then, I broke my father's favorite thing by mistake, and today I sneaked out of the house, Daddy will be punished, and Qing'er has no complaints."

waved his hand, where could Duanmu Jun still say the word punishment, "Forget it, don't take it as an example, you go back!" After saying that, he took the box and went to the inner room.

Walking out of the study, Duanmuhe had a chance to speak, "What's going on, why is there an extra box all of a sudden?" ”

Duanmu Qing smiled slightly, "I have already asked the old man Lu Ji to repair this Qianye Baihu, but I have never had a suitable opportunity to return it to my father, and today is just right." ”

It's true that there is no chance, and Duanmu Qing in the past didn't know how to express his affection to his father at all, and he always felt that he was hypocritical.

"Miss, what did you tell me to do......" It wasn't until Duanmuhe walked away that Lu Xi hesitated to ask.

"The plan remains the same," Duanmu Qing said with a smile, and walked towards Wumo Ge without stopping, "Don't bother me if there is nothing to do these days, I have important things, if someone comes, just say I'm not feeling well." ”

Back to Wumoge, Cai Wei told her that Duanmu Zi had come, Duanmu Qing didn't say a word about this, just nodded lightly, and then nestled on the chaise longue by the window to read.

Lu Xi and Cai Wei obeyed her orders and blocked all the people who came to the Inkless Pavilion from the door, only Duanmu Qing was unwell.

On the fifth day, Duanmu Qing leaned on the head of the bed, closed the book, and instructed Cai Wei to change his clothes, and after instructing Lu Xi to say a few words, he took people to the back garden.

Today's dress is very different from the usual style, wearing a high flying bun, and deliberately hanging a few strands of long hair, falling like a waterfall on the back of his head. The bright red dress is ankle-length, and the layered skirt is like a huge blooming peony, beautiful and enchanting, with wide sleeves, stretched out like a pair of huge wings.

Along the eyeliner, the rouge of the same color as the clothes swept from the eyelids to the sideburns, the eyebrows were slender, the pink cheeks were peachy, and a little lipstick was applied to the lips.

Such Duanmu Qingmo said that it was someone else, even Cai Weilu, who was waiting on the side all day long, had never seen it, charming, beautiful, dusty, and suddenly seemed to be a different person.

Walking all the way to the back garden, the sight of everyone on the road alone was like the noon sun, scorching people's skin, but Duanmu Qing walked by naturally, his steps were not chaotic at all, and even his eyes did not have a trace of fluttering.

Walking straight into the pavilion in the lake, he smiled brightly at the two maids behind him, "How is this place?" In such a day's weather, only here will you not sweat profusely and lose your image. ”

Hearing this, Cai Wei was taken aback, "Miss, you ...... Do you want to do dance? ”

"What? Isn't it good? ”

"But, aren't you planning to present an embroidered picture on the queen's birthday?" Lu Xi was straightforward, she really couldn't figure out why the eldest lady suddenly decided to dance at this time, and everyone in the house knew that the second lady Duanmu Zi's dancing posture was as incomprehensible as her appearance, and the eldest lady didn't seem to be very good at this.

Duanmu Qing didn't care about the reaction of the two maids, and ordered: "Cai Wei, play." ”

Obediently took the piano case from the hand of the little maid in the back, Cai Wei began to play seriously, although the piano skills are not necessarily superb, but it is also very smooth.

With the sound of the piano, Duanmu Qing's body began to swing with the rhythm, his slender waist was like a willow, his long hair was like ink, and his steps were like a lotus.

When dancing, the red dress swayed, like a peony in full bloom to the extreme, warm and unrestrained, but the weak body made this peony prescribe a distressing beauty, like a beauty like duckweed, and like a fairy in the wrong world, blooming in hesitation and restlessness, and blooming from time to time.

As the sound of the piano rises, the dance steps under Duanmu Qing's feet are getting faster and faster, making people only see a big red dancing flame, as if they want to burn everything and destroy everything in the ultimate beauty, making people unable to look away or think.

The song gradually came to an end, Duanmu Qing's dance gradually slowed down the rhythm, experienced the enthusiasm just now, at this time the dance steps with a little artificial stagnation, it seems to be a kind of human life like fatigue, the weak and boneless waist makes her turn into a grass in the wind at this moment, which makes people can't help but feel pity.

The last piano note fell, and Duanmu Qing ended with a beautiful spin.

There is a thin wind blowing from the surface of the lake into the water pavilion, and the curtain of smoke gently swings, freezing the time of this moment.

"I didn't expect my sister's dancing skills to be so good, Zi'er was ashamed of herself." After a moment of silence, a crisp female voice sounded from behind, and if you listened closely, you could hear the jealousy and resentment contained in that voice.

Turning around, Duanmu Qing looked at the person outside the water pavilion with a surprised expression, "Ah! It's Aunt Li and the second sister, where are you going? ”

Compared with Duanmu Zi's gentle smile, Li Ningshuang's face was a little uncontrollable annoyance, and a pair of eyes seemed to see her through.

"We were going to go to my mother's place, but on the way, we heard that my sister was practicing dance here! I was curious, so I came over to take a look, so I saw such a wonderful performance just now, and my sister's talent was hidden deep enough. ”

waved his hand disapprenorantly, Duanmuqing picked up the tea offered by the little girl next to him, "How many catties I have, my heart is still clear, today I suddenly saw this dress, I remembered that I could wear it and dance, so I came here to try the effect, I didn't expect it to be good." ”

It was only at this time that Duanmu Zi found that the clothes on Duanmu Qing's body were different from the ordinary ones, and they were also different from the dance clothes she wore when she practiced dancing on weekdays.

As he was talking, the corner of his eye saw that Duanmu Jun was coming over there, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart.

"The eldest lady's dance is good, but it seems that you can't come out today!" Seeing someone not far away, Li Ningshuang deliberately raised her voice.

Duanmu Qing looked dazed, "Auntie said something strange, why can't I come out." ”

"Did the eldest lady forget that she was being grounded?" Li Ningshuang sneered.

Looking at the person opposite with a smile, Duanmu Qing asked rhetorically, "Why was I grounded?" ”

After Mr. Bai released the news of Duanmu Qing pretending to be a little girl to Duanmu Jun, he asked her to go to the study to talk, and then she continued to say that she was sick and did not go out, although she did not hear Duanmu Jun say it himself, but she also knew that she must have been grounded.

Today, she knocked down the muzzle of the gun, appeared in the back garden so publicly, and danced such a beautiful dance, how could she let go of this opportunity, if she was allowed to dance such a dance at the queen's birthday banquet, could Zi'er still attract people's attention?

"Doesn't the eldest lady admit it, this is the order of the Hou Ye! The reason why Hou Ye didn't tell the whole mansion was because he thought that he would take into account the face of the eldest lady. ”

"Oh?" The smile on his face became more and more mysterious and unpredictable, Duanmu Qing looked at Li Ningshuang, "Since Daddy didn't say it, I really don't know where Aunt Li found out!" ”

Duanmu Jun, who had been standing not far away for a while, looked stunned, and turned his head sideways to look at the white manager on the side.
