Chapter 14: Uncle
A few days later, Ah Jiu came back from the Yunlai Inn and reported Ah Yin's safety. Ah Jin frowned, and the movement of stroking the qin suddenly stopped.
"Are you saying that Ah Yin didn't leave the royal capital?" She turned her head and looked at Ah Jiu, saw that Ah Jiu shook her head, and then fell on the guqin: "What does he want to do when he stays here?" ”
"The young master didn't say much, just let me bring you a message, saying that he is all right, you don't have to worry."
"His temperament, how can I not worry." Ah Jin muttered, no longer interested in playing the piano at all.
Ah Jiu was silent for a while, and then suddenly spoke again: "This time I went, and I didn't see Senior Sister Liuli. The first time I saw me, I was told that Senior Sister Liuli didn't live with him anymore. ”
"Okay, I got it." Ah Jin knew the rules in the Tongtian Pavilion, so naturally he didn't ask where Liuli went. The two pieces of news she got today were not good or bad, which made her feel a little depressed.
A pair of plain hands gently rested on the strings for a long time, and suddenly there was movement again, even Ah Jiu, who didn't know anything about the rhythm, could hear the melancholy in this song.
……
Outside the east wing, the subordinates of the Song Mansion were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground, all of them were preparing for the return of the second young master who was about to return from a study tour of Guyue Academy. Song Wenyuan, the second young master of the Song family, and Song Li, both came from the Song Yu family, and Song Wenyu is a half-sister. Even so, the relationship between these three people is very good, and it is also a good story.
If there is a fly in the ointment in this matter, it is that although Song Yushi is generous, he is also sensitive and thoughtful. Facing Song Wenyuan, she always felt guilty because she was a continuation. This kind of guilt emanated from the inside out, wrapping Song Wenyuan layer by layer, making him breathless.
This is also why he didn't let the prince of the royal capital go, and he had to go to the Guyue Academy in Jiangnan. But the good times didn't last long, and seeing that the spring exam was approaching, the relaxed and happy days of the past few years were fleeting.
"Second young master, why don't we go and say hello to the old lady and the lady first?" As soon as Song Wenyuan entered the Song Mansion, he went in the opposite direction of the main house. The attendant Huaiyin kindly reminded him.
Song Wenyuan smiled slightly, and walked forward without looking back: "Don't worry, if you go to see your mother so early, I'm afraid that the day will be wasted." It's been a long time since I've been home, and I want to look around. ”
"Yes." Huaiyin has been around Song Wenyuan since he was a child, so he naturally knows his thoughts. The master and servant wandered in the garden one after the other, looking at the scenery of peaches, plums and flowers blooming, and unconsciously walked to the east wing.
Song Wenyuan suddenly stopped, and Huaiyin almost hit his back.
"Young Master?" Huaiyin looked up at Song Wenyuan with a puzzled expression.
"Shh Song Wenyuan signaled Huaiyin to silence him, and listened intently for a moment, and the smile in his eyes gradually deepened: "The person who played this piece is really good at kung fu, and I just think it's mediocre when others play this tune." After listening to such an interpretation today, I understand the beauty of this song. ”
Song Wenyuan muttered to himself for a while, and suddenly stepped forward again, obviously intending to follow the trail and take a look at the true face of the person who played the Lushan. Huaiyin followed him step by step, and under the traction of the sound of the piano, the two soon came to a courtyard, where a wooden door was hidden. Song Wenyuan stood outside the door and hesitated for a while, but in the end, he couldn't resist his curiosity and glanced through the crack in the door.
I saw a young woman sitting under the peach blossom tree and stroking the piano. Because of her loose hair, her face is faintly visible, which makes people look at it unrealistically. Song Wenyuan gasped, hurriedly retracted his gaze, and suddenly regretted his abrupt behavior.
Without the permission of his master, Huaiyin didn't dare to look inside. Seeing that Song Wenyuan hurriedly retracted his gaze, he hurriedly asked, "Young Master, have you seen the person playing the piano?" ”
Song Wenyuan's face turned red when he was asked, and he was about to say something, when the woman sitting in the courtyard spoke, with a soft and glutinous Jiangnan accent, which had a different flavor: "Who is outside the door?" ”
After Ah Jin asked this, he waited for the man's response. After waiting for a long time, Ah Jiu went to the gate of the courtyard to take a look.
"Girl, there's no one out there." Ah Jiu came back to report.
"Oh, then leave him alone." Ah Jin lowered his head and continued to play the piano.
