Chapter 38: Overboard

Rong Changning stepped forward, picked up Rong Xin's hand, stuffed her handkerchief into her hand, and warned softly: "Look at the point when you walk, don't bump into people indiscriminately." ”

Rong Xin held the railing with his left hand, and his nails couldn't stop picking at the stubble on the railing, panicking like a war drum. Just a look, a word, was enough to make her feel difficult to breathe, and she didn't dare to say more than half a word to Bai Chuxi, let alone take a breath.

Seeing that Rong Xin was honest and shut up, Rong Changning turned to look at Bai Chuxi, glanced at it lightly, and went upstairs with the corner of his plain white skirt.

Xiao Dong followed closely behind Rong Changning and followed Rong Changning to the deck to blow the wind.

Further on, you will enter the mountain, the sunset weeping willows and long wind fill the sleeves, and the two sides of the bank retreat slowly with flowing water. After enduring it for a long time, Rong Changning relieved his breath.

The move actually touched his head, even if he didn't care so much about Bai Chuxi in his heart, Rong Changning always had to ask for his own face.

Holding on to the railing and looking into the distance, it was the road to Beixun.

"Miss Eiji."

Just listening to the voice from behind, he knew that it was Bai Chuxi who followed, Rong Changning turned around and was about to leave, but his sleeves were firmly held in his hands: "Where are you going?" ”

Seeing Bai Chuxi coming, the two seemed to be about to say something, and Xiao Dong waited in the distance.

Rong Changning glared at him and pulled back his sleeve: "The general is really in good interest today." ”

Bai Chuxi looked at the river, and replied without letting go: "Miss Rong's second interest is not bad. ”

"The general is a person, and the one-year covenant between you and me is still counted, right?"

Bai Chuxi suddenly chuckled: "Second Miss Rong, displeased?" ”

Seeing that Rong Changning looked at him coldly, looking like he had not received a satisfactory answer, Bai Chuxi had no choice but to reply: "Miss Rong Er said that she would count." ”

"In that case, I might as well add one more sentence."

"Okay, Yi, listen up."

"It has nothing to do with me how many concubines the general wants to befriend, the daughter of the Durong family, no."

At this moment, Bai Chuxi was already drunk, and looked at Rong Changning with humble eyes, although this condition was not excessive, he still asked: "Why?" ”

"Why?" Rong Changning looked at Bai Chuxi in disbelief: "Could it be that the general really has a crush on my little sister?" ”

"......Shh

Seeing Bai Chuxi's sneering appearance, Rong Changning didn't understand him well, men in the world are really the same, and they all eat the set handed down by Aunt Xu's mother.

This will be Bai Chuxi's little cousin who has forgotten his heart, just like his father forgot his mother. Staying with such a half-hearted person for a moment longer, Rong Changning felt that it would take time.

But speaking of which, isn't Yue Chu'er half-hearted?

In the end, it was someone else's business, Rong Changning didn't have any need to worry, and only said to Bai Chuxi: "General Wanwang is self-respecting." ”

Seeing that Rong Changning was about to leave again, Bai Chuxi turned around and leaned against the railing, looking at Rong Changning lazily with a provocative look, and asked with the smell of wine: "Could it be that you can still break the net with me?" Do you have to marry me? Or tell Xiao Zhengyu to cook me? Or is it a grudge? ”

Rong Changning was so angry by this sentence that he suddenly turned his head and looked at Bai Chuxi, and he didn't know which tendon he had made today wrong. Bai Chuxi only raised his eyebrows at her, looking like a prodigal.

"Whether it is a grievance or a prince of Mu Wangfu, Changning is innocent. It's a matter of honor, don't go too far with the general's jokes! ”

In addition to indifference in her eyes, Bai Chuxi couldn't find any other emotions, so she turned to look at the scenery, took a wine jug and poured a big sip of wine into her mouth, and then Changshu was depressed, turned her back to Rong Changning and said, "Okay, it's all good." Whatever you say, I'll just say yes. ”

His words were frustrated and lonely, Rong Changning looked at Bai Chuxi not far away, he wanted to ask something but he couldn't ask, so he had to turn around and prepare to go down to find the eldest sister.

Maybe it was because he didn't sleep well, Rong Changning didn't notice that there was something under his feet, and he just slipped and slammed into the railing, and his upper body leaned out of the fence and the whole person was planted down, Xiao Dong, who was standing in the distance, wanted to come over and catch it, but it was too late, and when Bai Chuxi turned around, the person had already fallen down.

"Missβ€”"

The hand under the indigo robe reached out to Rong Changning, but it didn't even reach the corner of her skirt.

She was like a white peony blooming in the water, and her eyes revealed this horror. Bai Chuxi was frightened when he saw her for the first time, so he didn't think about it, he dropped the wine jug and stepped on the railing to follow.

The river water poured into Rong Changning's mouth and nose, sealing her whole person, and she couldn't hear or see. Just when Rong Changning wanted to reach out and flutter, a pair of big hands held her up.

The sound of falling water attracted people to come over to watch the excitement, and in an instant, there were layers of people around.

Jiang Ning saw that it was Bai Chuxi's shadow, and rushed over to help pull Rong Changning onto the boat.

The water-stained dress was tightly attached to Rong Changning's body, and his graceful figure loomed, Bai Chuxi immediately hugged the person tightly in his arms when he got on the boat, and shouted at Jiang Ning: "Clothes!" ”

Jiang Ning hurriedly took off his coat and handed it to Bai Chuxi, Bai Chuxi wrapped Rong Changning tightly so that no one could see her body, and then reached out to wipe the water off her face: "Ask someone to release a boat and go back to the imperial city." "I love watching Chinese

Behind the crowd, Xiao Dong pulled his own son Rong Ruo towards the board, pushed away the restless crowd and squeezed forward, seeing Rong Chang lying quietly on the ground without moving, Rong Ruo pounced: "Second sister! ”

After living for sixteen years, Rong Changning also fell into the water for the first time, death was so close that it really scared her, and the Fengjiang water was still very cold in early summer, and she held Bai Chuxi's clothes tightly in her hand and refused to let go, and her hair was on the side of her face and she trembled slightly in fear.

"I'm here, you can rest assured. This will send you home. ”

"Childe, the boat is ready."

Bai Chuxi got up and picked up Rong Changning and walked straight to the back, Rong Ruo ran behind him, and when Rong Ling heard the voice, the person had already gotten on the boat: "Changning!" What's going on?! ”

Jiang Ning stepped forward: "Back to the eldest lady, Miss Rong Er fell into the water and was frightened, this will be the son to send people back to the imperial city, the boat is too small, the eldest lady and the fourth lady and the little son plus the entourage are really unable to take it, and ask the eldest lady to stay and take care of the younger siblings at home." There is a prince on the boat to follow, please rest assured. ”

"Good...... Good! Then there will be General Lao, and he will come to the door to thank him another day. I'll let the boat go back. ”

"What the general means, the waterway is not safe, it is better for the eldest lady to follow the big boat back, so as not to worry the second lady."

After speaking, Jiang Ning turned around and got into the boat, leaving Rong Ling to look at the flat boat that was walking away worriedly.

"How did this Miss Rong Er fall?" Hearing the whispering of the people behind her, Rong Ling slowly turned her head, although she only glanced at it softly, she could remind those people that the people of the Rong family were still on the boat.

This is Bai Chuxi's intention to ask Rong Ling to stay on the ship.

However, Rong Ling is also very curious, how did Rong Changning fall into the river?

……

Fengjiang water was so cold, so cold that Rong Changning couldn't let go of Bai Chuxi's clothes along the way, and returned to the Hou Mansion to soak in ginger water and wrapped in the quilt not long before he fell asleep groggily.

In a trance, I seemed to hear Jiang Ning follow him to the courtyard and say something to Xiao Dong, but as for what he said, he couldn't remember.

With a panicked sleep, Rong Changning slept in the dark, and he didn't wake up until dark. It's like I want to make up for the sleep I didn't sleep last night.

Rong Ling came back and was blocked by Aunt Lin outside, and she didn't see each other.

In the second half of the night, Rong Changning was finally awakened by the sound of stones hitting the window lattice.

Open your eyes and take a deep breath, turn over and get up: "Xiaodong? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The dark room was empty, and no one answered. There was another sound of stones knocking on the window, Rong Changning lifted the curtain and put on his coat, picked up the candlestick and walked to the dressing table, stretched out his hand to push open the window, and the toad light immediately flooded into the window to illuminate Rong Changning's little face. He frowned and looked around at no one.

Just when he was wondering, a sentence came from the top of his head: "Rong Er." ”

"General White?"

"Are you awake?" He was sitting leaning against the trunk of the tree, stepping on the branch with one leg and coming up, looking at Rong Changning and not planning to come down.

The courtyard is quiet, and Zi Shi Bangzi has just knocked on it, this person can't sneak in, right?

Thinking of this, Rong Changning pulled his coat in front of his heart: "Why are you here?" ”

"I see you're scared today."

"Who said I was scared?"

Rong Changning didn't admit it, and couldn't help but make Bai Chuxi laugh: "Don't be hard-mouthed, I can see it clearly if you are scared." ”

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed at Rong Changning's hand blocking his chest: "What are you blocking?" I can't do anything. ”

"The gate of my Hou Mansion is nothing to the general, and it is unknown what he will be able to do."

"I'm just here to see if you're okay. But it was too late, and I didn't want to alarm the big and small yards. I just heard from the maid in your house that you slept all afternoon, so I dared to knock on your window. ”

"General Lao is concerned." Rong Changning put down the candlestick and sat down in front of the dressing table next to him and waited for Bai Chuxi to say the next sentence.

But seeing Bai Chuxi stretching out his hand and pointing to the windowsill, Rong Changning looked at it, a typed paper bag.

"The chestnut candy in Honglong's shop will give you a crush. Today I am drunk, and my words are offensive, which can be regarded as reparation. As for what you said, I took it to heart. Actually, I and your sister are nothing, if you have a taboo in your heart, you can see each other in the future. ”

Rong Changning sat down, holding the thing in his hand with his eyebrows lowered, he didn't know what to answer, and after thinking about it, he said: "Thanks to the general today, it is really impossible to make amends." ”

"It's good not to be angry. I haven't been at home for a few days, and my grandmother is afraid that she will be angry with me. Earlier, her old man was chattering and wanted you to accompany her to Haihui Temple to worship incense. If you write down my favor today, you will accompany her when you are free. Thinking about Mrs. Ying Guo's shouting that if she didn't marry Rong Changning, she would recognize her, and Bai Chuxi's face showed a little helplessness.

"It turns out that this chestnut candy is not eaten for nothing, I have to coax my grandmother for you." Rong Changning raised his eyes to look at the people on the tree: "With only one side, I have gained such a great blessing." ”

The young man on the tree had bright eyes and bright teeth, rested on the trunk of the tree and breathed a long sigh of relief, the breeze was soft and comfortable, and he looked at the starry railing and looked at the bright moon and replied: "Yes, I didn't expect my grandmother to like you to this." ”
