Chapter 100: A Perfect Match
Zhuang Xiaomeng came to Song Yu's room with a pale face, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Song Li sitting there casually. She paused, and subconsciously was about to exit the room.
"Xiaomeng, are you here? Come and have breakfast together. When Song Yu saw her coming, a smile instantly bloomed on his face. Song Li looked at Song Yu fixedly, only feeling that since those things happened to him, Song Yu didn't seem to have smiled at him like this.
She lowered her head and squeezed the spoon in her hand a little tighter.
Zhuang Xiaomeng stood at the door of the room awkwardly, looked at Song Li cautiously, and saw that she did not move, so he slowly walked to Song Yu's side and sat down, "Xiaomeng...... Also passing by......"
When Song Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, "Why are you passing by?" I've sent someone to your room to invite you. ”
As soon as her words fell, she seemed to think of something, and immediately raised her head to look outside, and sure enough, she didn't see Zhuang Xiaomeng's maid, "You came alone?" ”
Song Yu lowered his head again and asked. Zhuang Xiaomeng nodded lightly and didn't say anything superfluous, which made Song Li secretly relieved. At the same time, she was a little unwilling. She didn't believe that Zhuang Xiaomeng was such a weak person, an ignorant girl's heart was tied to her second brother, and she would be unmoved after hearing those things about her second brother's sweetheart.
Thinking of this, Song Li finally raised her head and looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng and said, "My cousin got up so early, and he came alone, which is really scary." I remember right, there was a garden between your room and your mother's courtyard, and it was fortunate that you didn't get lost as a newcomer. ”
Zhuang Xiaomeng listened to Song Li's words, and subconsciously raised her head to look at her, and when she saw that the other party was looking at her with a smile, she suddenly felt a little shuddered. This person is really terrible.
Zhuang Xiaomeng thought like this, and couldn't help but grasp the placket of his clothes. Maybe her scared look was too obvious, so Song Yu couldn't help but look at her twice. After looking at it like this, Song Yushi finally saw some differences, "Xiaomeng, are you cold?" This cloak looks quite familiar. ”
"On my way over, I happened to meet my sister-in-law. She was collecting dew in the garden with her maid, and when she saw that I was thinly dressed, she lent me a cloak to wear. When it comes to Ah Jin, Zhuang Xiaomeng has mixed tastes. The sad feeling that had been suppressed just now suddenly burst out densely, occupying her heart inch by inch.
Her calm answer surprised Song Li a little. She was really surprised, she didn't expect this Zhuang Xiaomeng to speak so impartially when she knew that Song Wenyuan's sweetheart was Shen Mojin.
Song Li lowered her head, took a sip of porridge, and suddenly said, "I said, it seems that my sister-in-law sent you over, right?" The sister-in-law is really, since she has already arrived at the door of her mother's room, she doesn't come in. ”
Song Li's seemingly unintentional words made Song Yu's heart feel a little dissatisfied with Ah Jin, but she didn't show it, but reprimanded Song Li a few words, "Speculation, it's just a borrowing of a cloak, how can you extend so many things?" ”
Song Li glanced at Song Yu in silence, and then lowered his head to drink porridge again. Zhuang Xiao dreamed that Song Li always seemed to be unhappy with Ah Jin, intentionally or unintentionally, although he didn't know what it was for, he still said a few words for Ah Jin, "It turned out that my cousin misunderstood, my sister-in-law just borrowed my cloak, and after leaving the garden, the two of us broke up and said goodbye." Now, the sister-in-law should be preparing lunch for the eldest brother in the east wing. ”
Song Yu nodded and looked at Zhuang Xiaomeng lovingly. No matter what the facts are, this child's soft and kind heart makes her feel more and more that she will definitely be a good match for Song Wenyuan.
"Alright, let's stop discussing these irrelevant things, let's eat while it's hot. Later, if your uncle-in-law comes home and sees that we haven't even finished breakfast, he will definitely say that I, the elder, let you go. Song Yu said, then took the lead in picking up the rice bowl and began to drink porridge.
Seeing this, Zhuang Xiaomeng also obediently picked up the bowl in front of him with both hands. Only Song Li's face was gloomy, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
……
Ah Jin returned to the east wing with a small wooden barrel, and before he could sit down, he saw a small bamboo tube in the swallow's nest under the eaves. She looked stunned, and then went up to the roof and took down the small bamboo tube.
Ah Zhen carried a small wooden bucket to Ah Jin's side and took a look, and her face changed, "Girl, something happened in the pavilion?" ”
Ah Jin glanced back at her, shook his head, and focused on the small note again, "Ah Zhen, I have to go out later." You stay and cover up for me. ”
"The slave knows." Ah Zhen nodded, and went down to get busy. Ah Jin put the note into his sleeve, looked at the clouds in the sky and couldn't help but sigh.
"The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings......" she muttered, turned her head and walked into the room to disguise herself, and immediately slipped out of the Song Mansion without noticing.
At the same time, Song Wenyu was standing among the civil and military officials in the court and quietly listening to the invitation of other officials, and suddenly his right eyelid jumped several times, which made him frown, and he always felt a little flustered, but he couldn't say why.
……
Ah Jin hurried to the door of a mountain villa in the suburbs, and she first looked left and right around the surroundings, and then knocked on the closed wooden door several times according to the method written on the small note.
As soon as there was a knock on the door, the door opened. Ah Jin saw that the door had opened, so he immediately got in. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the villa, a dagger was put on his neck.
Ah Jin was shocked, and as soon as he shrank his body, he wanted to dodge the dagger's attack, but he saw that the dagger was like a ghost, like a shadow. Ah Jin felt strange while coping, and it was not until he saw the figure that came out of the darkness that he suddenly realized.
"Senior sister, it's really you." Seeing that it was Liuli, Ah Jin didn't dodge the dagger again. Strange to say, as soon as she stood there and did not move, the dagger disappeared immediately.
Liuli smiled and said, "I won't come out, are you planning to fight with this shadow dagger of mine for the rest of your life?" ”
"Not really. After trying a few tricks, you will notice that something is wrong. Ah Jin replied, "I heard from Hatsumi that you have left the royal capital. How...... It's back this time? ”
"The pavilion is here, as the chief disciple of the Thousand Faces Hall, how can I not accompany me." Liuli subconsciously covered up the details before she came to the royal capital, and said.
"Oh," Ah Jin replied, not knowing how much she believed it, "I saw the little note you left behind, and I came over." What about my stepfather, where are the others? ”
"You come with me." Ruri said and walked straight ahead. Ah Jin walked behind her, looking at her purple-clothed appearance, even if she was a woman, she couldn't help but be a little drunk.
Ah Jin pursed his lips, not knowing whether he should mention Lotten. While hesitating, Ruri stopped in front of the door of a room, "This is it, you can go in by yourself, I'll be guarding outside the door." ”
"Hmm." Ah Jin pushed open the door and found an old man sitting there on crutches, not moving. She was wondering, and when she turned around, she saw Liuli looking at her with a smile, and immediately understood, "Father-in-law." ”
Ah Jin closed the door and sat down in front of the old man. Liang Qi'an opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, "Coming?" I thought you were going to play dumb until I was done and left. ”
"How come, father-in-law, don't forget, the news was passed on by me," Ah Jin smiled, and after saying this, his expression became more solemn again, "Father came to me this time, did he plan to tell me all those past events?" ”
Liang Qi'an did not answer the question directly, "What do you want to know?" ”
"I want to know what kind of trick Ah Jiu has in the hands of that man in black. Also, who is this mysterious man in black? Why did he have those long-lost kung fu on the rivers and lakes? And these martial arts cheats are all collected in my Tongtian Pavilion so coincidentally? Don't...... Is there really a ghost in the Tongtian Pavilion? ”
"There are no ghosts in the pavilion, this is just the injustice of more than ten years ago...... Liang Qi'an sighed, his thoughts drifted a little far away, "More than ten years ago, when my father-in-law was just past the year of his establishment, the current sage Xiao Wusheng led eight thousand iron horsemen to break through the territory of Izumo Country, and for a while, the Izumo Country was ruined. Xiao Wusheng adopted a gentle policy towards the common people of Izumo Kingdom, but for the royal family of Izumo Kingdom, he was wiped out, leaving only a princess. ”
"Concubine Liang, Hanayara?" Ah Jin looked at Liang Qi'an and suddenly asked.
Liang Qi'an nodded, and continued to recall the past, "You should still remember, right?" When you were four years old, there were a group of children who went up to the Unruly Mountain, including Ah Jiu Ah Zhen Chu Ji, a total of about 20 people. They are of different ages, some older and some young...... These children are the orphans of the Izumo Imperial Iron Guard, and some of them can be regarded as the blood of the Izumo Imperial Family. Do you know who the Iron Guard is in chief? ”
Ah Jin shook his head, and a strange feeling appeared in his heart. She almost blurted out an answer, but she wasn't sure, "Could it be the mysterious man?" ”
"When you say that the man can fold his hand, I already know it in my heart. When Aya Luo died in the pavilion, the palace guards who went up the mountain with her were missing, and there were several martial arts cheats hidden in the pavilion that disappeared with him. That person, named Feiyun, was once the commander of the Iron Guard in Izumo Province. Later, Ayara entered the palace, and he also went with him......"
Ah Jin was dumbfounded, staring at Liang Qi'an for a long time and couldn't speak, "So, that mysterious person is ......"
"It's Feiyun," Liang Qi'an said these words slowly, reached out and picked up the boiling kettle, and made a cup of hot tea soup for Ah Jin, "Not only that, Feiyun should be the pavilion master of the Star Picking Pavilion." Your master once met him in the northwest, and she said that she thought this person was familiar. Now that I think about it, it turned out to be an acquaintance. ”
"Since he had gone up the mountain with Aunt Ayara, he should have known how Tsutenkaku spared no effort to turn the tide at that time. Why did he still trap the Heavenly Pavilion in injustice, and even drag those orphans into the water. Ah Jin thought of Ah Jiu who had turned his back on him, and his heart ached. Ah Jiu is not a sister to her, she is better than a sister, and now she is suddenly provoked by someone to centrifuge, which is simply cutting her flesh and blood.
Compared with Ah Jin's excitement, Liang Qi'an behaved very blandly. He focused his attention on the bowl of turquoise tea soup in front of him, the snow-white tea foam was layered on top of each other, clinging to the black porcelain bowl wall, "Probably, he still hates it in his heart." ”
Ah Jin knew that Liang Qi'an meant himself, even though he had a thousand complaints in his heart, he didn't say it again. She could see that although many years had passed, her father-in-law was still very uncomfortable when he mentioned this matter.
Hua Ayaluo's death has become a hurdle that he can't cross in his life.
Ah Jin sighed, stood up and said, "That's it, since I already know all these things, there is nothing to be afraid of." ”
"Ah Jin, the enemy is dark and I am clear, and everything must be careful. Besides, your husband-in-law......"
"What's my husband-in-law, isn't my husband your son-in-law?" Ah Jin crossed his hands on his hips and glared at Liang Qi'an and said.
"Okay, well, my son-in-law, he is still on the cusp of the storm, and he doesn't know that he is being used as a gunman."
"Actually, he vaguely knew it in his heart," Ah Jin lowered his eyes, remembering Song Wenyu's cheerful expression, and couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm, "Although he couldn't figure out the strangeness of this, he still chose to do it." On weekdays, he is not such a character. It's just that this time, it was his former friend who died in vain, and he was such a person. When he was wronged, he didn't say a word, but he couldn't see others being wronged, especially the people he cared about. ”
"Well, I don't care about others, he just doesn't let you be wronged." Liang Qi'an stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, looking like an old man.
Ah Jin glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "Don't worry, father." He won't. ”
"Hmph, it won't be the best," Liang Qi'an snorted lightly, really feeling disturbed. His sons and daughters, one by one, did not want to go back. Even the most proud disciple standing outside the door had to beg to follow the royal capital in vain.
Although Liuli didn't say it explicitly, Liang Qi'an knew what was going on with his toes.
"You young people...... Liang Qi'an said halfway through, and some couldn't go on.
After all, he was once so young and frivolous. In that case, what right does he have to accuse them?
Liang Qi'an looked at Ah Jin, who had become a big girl, and there was a trace of distress in his eyes, which was a loving look that belonged to his father alone, "Okay, you go back quickly, don't make people suspicious at this juncture." ”
"Got it, so if there's anything, let's get in touch with the 'pigeons'."
Liang Qi'an lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "No need, it will be troublesome to let those children pass on the news at this time." You've been to this villa before, so if you're in a hurry, come here and make peace with us. ”
"Okay," Ah Jin nodded, and said, "When does my father plan to leave the royal capital?" ”
"Ten days later, ten days later...... Who will be in charge of this royal capital has nothing to do with us Tongtian Pavilion people. When the time comes...... If you want to leave with us, just come here. ”
Ah Jin grinned, obviously not taking Liang Qi'an's words seriously. I saw her wave her hand and said very freely: "Don't worry, I will take care of Ah Yin in the royal capital, and he will not make any trouble." ”
Liang Qi'an looked at her and left without looking back, shaking his head angrily. When Ruri entered the room, she heard him sitting there alone muttering, "What's the use of raising a pair of children?" In the end, it's not all about running away with people. ”
Liuli looked at Liang Qi'an in some surprise, and wanted to laugh, but she just held back the laughter.
……
When Ah Jin went back, he happened to meet Ah Zhen's six gods wandering around the room without a master. Seeing that she was back, he quickly grabbed her and said, "Girl, you are finally back." Today, an aunt brought back a Yama prince, and he wanted to stay in the house to eat. I'm still wondering how I'm going to fix the fact that you're not in the house if you don't come back at noon. ”
"Am I not back...... What Lord Yama? Ah Jin asked as he walked behind the screen to change his clothes.
"That's it." When she mentioned this man, Ah Zhen looked hated and afraid.
Ah Jin thought she looked weird and cute, changed her clothes and walked to the dressing mirror and sat down, and began to tease her deliberately, "How did he mess with you again." ”
"He didn't mess with me, but we didn't mess with him either. Why do I always feel that this person is always having trouble with you? ”
Ah Jin handed a golden hairpin he picked to Ah Zhen, and said with a slight smile: "Because he is a good brother of your aunt and a friend in trouble." ”
"So what?" Ah Zhen neatly put a falling horse bun on Ah Jin, and gestured on the bun with the gold hairpin, and then found a suitable place to insert it.
"So, he's afraid that I'm a goblin, and he eats his good brother." Ah Jin looked through the mirror, looked at Ah Zhen with a puzzled face, and said with his teeth and claws.
Ah Zhen burst out laughing, and was about to say something when the door was pushed open.
"What do you two say, so happy?"
Ah Jin turned around and saw Song Wenyu walking towards him, so he also stood up, "We were talking about the story just now, the story of the goblin eating the scholar." ”
As soon as Ah Jin's words fell, Ah Zhen covered her mouth and giggled again. Song Wenyu looked at the two of them inexplicably, and looked at Ah Jin with some helplessness: "The girl's family, why do you always talk about such a glamorous thing, and you still laugh so happily." ”
"In the boudoir, that's all there is to it, don't embarrass me," Ah Jin let him lead him out, and asked as he went, "Where are you taking me?" ”
"Go see a friend," Song Wenyu didn't look back at her, but answered her question.
"Oh, it's Lord Luo."
As soon as Ah Jin's words fell, Song Wenyu's footsteps stopped. He turned around, first glanced at Ah Zhen, and then looked at Ah Jin and said, "Ah Zhen told me?" ”
"Naturally, I said. Didn't you send someone here just so that I could freshen up and welcome my guests? ”
Song Wenyu frowned and looked at Ah Jin, who was smiling, and really couldn't figure out the meaning of her words. After a while, he said: "Ah Teng came over for a light meal this time, and it was also a coincidence." You don't have to be too nervous. ”
"I'm not nervous, and neither should you." As he spoke, Ah Jin patted Song Wenyu's chest a few times with his hand, and then walked straight forward past him.
Song Wenyu covered his chest that had been touched by Ah Jin just now, and his heart was even more uneasy. He turned to look at Huairen, pointed to Ah Jin's distant back, and asked, "Do you know what Madam means by that?" ”
Huairen hurriedly shook his head, thinking, Childe, you don't know what Madam means, how can I know.
Song Wenyu pursed his lips and stared at Ah Jin for a long time, until the other party stopped and waited for him, and then he followed with a heavy heart.
When people are in danger, they have some intuition. Now his instincts tell him that something is wrong.
Seeing Song Wenyu following him absentmindedly, Ah Jin pulled his sleeve and said, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" ”
Song Wenyu's body shook and looked at Ah Jin like a ghost. Because, she rarely calls herself that, "Not much, you ......"
"That's good, the husband is fine, the concubine will be relieved," said Ah Jin, who affectionately held Song Wenyu's arm and walked side by side under the flower corridor.
Although the two of them had done this action countless times, for some reason, Song Wenyu blushed unconsciously, "Ah Jin, let's go have dinner with Ah Teng later, don't mess around, you know?" ”
"Messing around? How could Ah Jin mess around? How to count it as a mess? Why don't you tell me clearly now? Ah Jin looked at Song Wenyu with a smile and hugged his arm tighter.
Song Wenyu looked at her cunning and smart eyes helplessly, and for the first time in her life, she had the urge to resign herself to fate, "Let's go, let's go in." ”
In the end, he didn't say anything superfluous, and led people in.
Ah Jin saw that he was reacting like this, and the smile on his lips spread. When Luo Teng stood up to greet the two, he happened to see her looking at Song Wenyu with a smile, and her affectionate appearance made him think of Ziyi for no reason.
Luo Teng's pupils shrank, and he secretly scolded himself for being unproductive.
"Brother Wen Yu." Luo Teng didn't rush to greet Ah Jin, just waited for Song Wenyu to introduce Ah Jin.
"None of you have officially met before. Ah Teng, this is Zaimeizi, Shen. Song Wenyu introduced to Luo Teng, and then turned his head to look at Ah Jin and said, "Luo Teng, you don't need me to say it, right?" You've heard the name of the jade-faced judge. ”
"Naturally, I have heard of it, and the name of Lord Luo is like thunder. Today, I finally saw my true body, and it was also a great blessing in life for the concubine. Ah Jin looked at Luo Teng with a smile, but his eyes were very cold. This is different from the look she had when she looked at Song Wenyu.
"My sister-in-law has won the prize." After Luo Teng said a few polite words, he returned to his position under the guidance of Song Wenyu. As soon as he sat down, he looked up at Song Wenyu and his wife, and his attention was always on Song Wenyu's body when he spoke, and his eyes never wandered.
Ah Jin sat on the side and looked at him quietly, saying in his heart that he was also a decent gentleman.
But so what, this elm pimple didn't make the senior sister sad. Ah Jin lowered his head, and when he thought of Liuli's crying appearance, his heart was not happy.
At this moment, the conversation between the two brothers suddenly shifted to her for some reason.
"Sister-in-law, have you heard of the Star Picking Pavilion?" Luo Teng's cold question, even Song Wenyu was stunned.
"Haven't heard of it, what is that? Restaurants? After Ah Jin asked, he took the chopsticks and gave Song Wenyu a few chopsticks and fish, and they all picked up the moon-white meat on the fish.
Song Wenyu originally wanted to leave these two pieces of the best meat for the guests, but Ah Jin stared at him silently and could only enjoy them by himself.
"Well, the name does look like a restaurant." Seeing that Ah Jin behaved naturally, Luo Teng had to skim the topic over.
Since then, Luo Teng will always throw out some attempts to test Ah Jin from time to time, but she has resolved them one by one. After a meal, Luo Teng's doubts were not dispelled, and his stomach was still a little hungry. Because most of the dishes went into Song Wenyu's stomach.
"I told my servants to make a pot of tea." After finishing the meal, Ah Jin found an excuse and left the small hall first.
As soon as she walked on her front foot, Song Wenyu began to make fun of Luo Tenglai, "How is it?" Satisfied? ”
Luo Teng looked at Song Wenyu with some blame in his words, "You told that person happily, why should I make such a decision." ”
When Song Wenyu heard this, he glanced at him and said, "Later, the tea and snacks will come up, and you can eat more refreshments to cushion your stomach; I drink more tea to eliminate my appetite. ”
Luo Teng looked at Song Wenyu with some anger, and only felt that this couple was simply an excellent match.
