Li Tingyou drank this cup of peony wine, ran away with a smoke, and went to the opposite side of the pond to play with other sons.

Li Tingyou's back was almost deserted and fled, Duanmu Jun couldn't help but hook his lips when he saw it on the side, looking at his sister's bright smile, he felt that he should let his sister come out to play, this time really made his sister stuffy.

Dangui and Lan Tingyun couldn't sit still, and after talking for a while, the two of them ran to play wooden shooting with someone.

Duanmu Fei continued to draw with her pen again, and this time, she drew three or four fire carp with different shapes in one go, which were vivid and leaping on the paper......

"Smack!"

Suddenly, there was a crisp slap from behind.

This sound is not particularly loud in the graceful pipa sound, but it also alarmed many sons and girls in the garden, and they followed the prestige one by one, including Duanmu Jun and Hanxing, who were watching Duanmu Fei painting by the pond.

I saw that under a willow tree not far away, two girls confronted each other, glaring angrily, one twelve or thirteen years old, and the other seemed to be a year or two older.

The former wore a pink lotus-patterned engraved silk jacket with a moonlight skirt, a green silk combed into a double flat bun, and a pair of red gold enamel butterflies between her sideburns.

The older girl was wearing a moon-white dress, her right hand was raised slightly, and she choked up: "Like a cousin, how can you say this about me?!" I'm your cousin anyway! ”

The girl in the white dress looked weak, and her weak eyes were hazy with tears, as if tears would overflow her eyes in the next moment.

She is Ji Lanzhou, the cousin of Xuanwu Marquis Mansion.

"Ji Lanzhou!" Wang Wanru, the fifth girl of the Wang family, was so angry that her little face turned red, she covered her left face with one hand, pointed at Ji Lanzhou with the other, and took two steps closer, "You dare to hit me?!" Her mind was blank with anger, and her previous playfulness was gone.

"You are just a drag oil bottle under the fence, eating our royal family, wearing our royal family, you still dare to beat me?! Are you trying to turn the world upside down?! Wang Wan stomped her feet in anger, angry and ruined.

Ji Lanzhou seemed to be frightened by her, and took several steps back, her eyes were filled with tears, her chest rose and fell slightly, and her slender figure seemed to be weaker and helpless than the willow trees fluttering in the wind on the side.

"Like my cousin, I know that my mother and I are under the fence, and I can let you do anything on weekdays, but you ...... How can you just say that my mother is...... Is it ......" Ji Lanzhou's voice choked, and his body was even more shaky, looking pitiful.

"Why can't I say that?! Your mother is hooking up with three and four, and she is shameless! The more Wang Wanru spoke, the more angry she became, and she felt that the eyes of other people around her were hot, stabbing her face like thousands of sharp arrows.

"Like cousin, my mother is your aunt, I am your cousin, how can we say that we are also a 'family', how can you speak ill of you like this......" Ji Lanzhou's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the tears in his eyes finally overflowed uncontrollably, and a line of clear tears fell down his cheeks.

When Wang Wanru heard the words "family", she was even more angry, and her eyes seemed to be breathing fire.

She stepped forward quickly, pushed Ji Lanzhou, and said rudely: "Your surname is Ji, our surname is Wang, who is a family with you!" ”

Wang Wanru's voice was so sharp that it spread almost throughout most of the garden, causing more people to look over here.

Ji Lanzhou was pushed by Wang Wanru violently, stumbled under his feet, took two steps back in embarrassment, and saw his right foot tripped over his left foot and fell backwards......

"Be careful." Duanmu Heng was admiring peonies a few zhang behind him, and when he saw this, he hurriedly helped Ji Lanzhou on his right arm.

When Ji Lanzhou stood firm, he immediately retreated, and said to Ji Lanzhou seriously: "Girl, offended." ”

Seeing this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Wang Wanru's mouth, "Ji Lanzhou, I didn't say anything wrong about you, you ......"

"Fifth sister, don't say a word." Seeing the movement here, the third girl Wang hurried over, interrupted Wang Wanru with a voice, and then looked at Ji Lanzhou a few steps away, and gently persuaded, "Lanzhou, you also know that the fifth sister is young and anxious, don't worry about her." ”

"Cousin." Ji Lanzhou called in a low voice, a weak smile appeared on her beautiful face, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, Chu Chu bowed her head pitifully slightly, and didn't say anything again.

Wang Wanru was still angry, and continued to scold: "Third sister, she beat me!" This little slut really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall......"

The other boys and girls around also heard it, frowned slightly, and said secretly in their hearts: A "little slut", this is like a Houfu girl's house, worse than a market shrew.

"Smack!"

Han Xing was so loud that Wang Wanru's slightly sharp voice made her head big, slapped the case heavily, and said coquettishly: "There's still no end!" Han Xing frowned slightly, and did not hide the unsafe look on his face.

Really, if a good "Fire Carp Picture" of Cousin Scarlet is destroyed, can their Wang family afford to pay for it?!

Everyone else around them fell silent, and even the boys and girls who were not far away playing with pitchers, wooden shots, and admiring flowers were subconsciously silenced, and the surroundings fell into silence, except for the sound of the warm breeze blowing the willow branches.

Wang Wanting, the third girl, did not look very good-looking, and blessed Han Xing, "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, they are all sisters who are ignorant, please don't be surprised." ”

Wang Wanting looked at Wang Wanru, who was pale, and scolded lightly: "Don't you still pay compensation to Your Highness!" ”

She said this to let Wang Wanru compensate Han Xing, but not to Ji Lanzhou.

Even if Wang Wanru was unwilling, she didn't dare to offend Han Xing, bit her lower lip slightly, stepped forward half a step aggrievedly, and apologized to Han Xing: "It's the courtiers who are rude, please don't blame Your Highness." ”

Han Xing waved his hand impatiently and said, "If it's okay, just step down." ”

At this time, Duanmu Fei happened to draw the fire carp, breathed a sigh of relief, put the sheep's pen in his hand on the pen stand on the side, and didn't look at the Wang family.

Wang Wanru bit her lower lip again, and wanted to say something, but Wang Wanting next to her seemed to notice it, grabbed her wrist, and used a slight force in warning.

"Fifth sister, just now your fourth sister and sixth sister said that they were going to play peek-a-boo, and they have already called a few girls, so you can go play together." Wang Wanting said with a smile, and handed Wang Wanru a look, warning her that if she made trouble again, she would definitely tell her grandfather and grandmother when she went back.

"Yes, Third Sister." Wang Wanru could only swallow back the words that had originally come to her mouth, and said unwillingly: The fourth princess "helped" Ji Lanzhou once, and she couldn't help her for the rest of her life, and this account will be calculated later!

Wang Wanting smiled generously, as if nothing happened, she looked at Han Xing and Duanmu Fei and said, "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, the four girls of Duanmu, do you want to play with them too?" ”

"yes." The fourth girl Wang who was standing on the other side stepped forward half a step forward and said smartly, "Fourth girl Duanmu, I have already called seven or eight girls, everyone will play together, it will definitely be lively." ”

Before Duanmufei could speak, Duanmujun had already opened her mouth to refuse: "Thank you for your kindness." My sister has been a little weak lately, so she shouldn't move much. ”

The sisters of the Wang family didn't expect Duanmujun to be so faceless, and their faces were slightly stiff.

Duanmuqi and Duanmuyuan, who were not far away, also heard it, and they were all unimpressed.

Of course, Duanmuqi and Duanmuyuan knew that Duanmufei had a pox a few days ago, and it was just right, but since they came out to play, they were still so hypocritical, it was really childish!

"Second sister, our Duanmu family's face is going to be lost by them!" Duanmuyuan looked at Duanmujun and Duanmufei, and whispered in Duanmuqi's ear, "We must talk to our grandfather when we go back, grandfather can't always be biased......"

Duanmu Qi's eyes were dark, and he silently moved his gaze to the other side of the pond, where Yang Xuyao was playing with a few sons, laughing and dancing.

Duanmuqi's gaze stayed on Yang Xuyao's handsome face for a moment, and he subconsciously pinched the sleeve pocket of his left sleeve and took a deep breath.

Duanmu Fei showed a well-behaved smile and nodded, "I listen to my sister." She knew that she had scared her sister with the pox, so she was very obedient.

Wang Wanting's face stiffened for a few breaths, and she soon smiled casually, smiling gently and kindly, "Since the fourth girl of Duanmu is weak, let's rest here more." The peonies of this Luhua Pavilion are all famous products, and it is rare to coincide with the flowering season, and it is also very pleasant to enjoy the flowers and feed the fish. ”

Of course, Wang Wanting was also unhappy with Duanmujun's "rudeness" just now, if it was usual, she would have been too lazy to pay attention to the two sisters of the Duanmu family, even if they were girls from the Shoufu family, even if they were cousins of the fourth princess, but this time the flower viewing would be different.

Long before the flower viewing party, Wang Wanting was repeatedly told by her grandfather and parents to let her go with the girls of those noble families in Beijing, especially the fourth girl of the Duanmu family, she is not only the granddaughter of Shoufu, but also the righteous sister of the Dongchang Governor Cen, I heard that the Governor Cen has always favored this righteous sister.

Now the power of Dongchang can be said to cover the sky with one hand, and in the court, it is even more Cen Governor who has the final say, and they Xuanwu Marquis Mansion and Cen Governor's righteous sister are friendly, and there is no harm in it.

Wang Wanru on the side pursed the corners of her mouth into a straight line, lowered her eyes and looked at the tips of her shoes, and thought disdainfully: Do these two treat themselves as sick Xi Shi?! Pretending!

Wang Wanting spoke for a while, and saw that Duanmujun and Duanmufei always looked indifferent, so she didn't stay any longer, and pulled Wang Wanru to retreat.

Ji Lanzhou blessed Han Xing, and also left with Sister Wang Wanting, leaving a slender back, looking more and more weak in the flying willow branches.

Han Xing frowned as he looked at the backs of the three cousins leaving, his eyes stopped on Ji Lanzhou, this Ji girl's soft and weak and aggrieved appearance made Han Xing think of another person.

Wei Ruxian.

Han Xing suddenly spoke: "Cousin Scarlet, have you heard?" Wei Ruxian had broken off her marriage with the Pan family not long ago. ”

Speaking of Wei Ruxian's divorce, Han Xing's tone was a little embarrassed and a little surprised, "She has now moved to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing to keep filial piety for her mother." ”

With Wei Ruxian's cowardly temperament being able to do this, Han Xing still feels a little incredible when he thinks about it.

Duanmufei didn't care about the Wei family's affairs, so this was the first time she had heard of it, she moved her eyebrows, turned her head and glanced in the direction where Ji Lanzhou left, and said meaningfully: "Cousin Hanxing, Miss Ji and Miss Wei are not the same. ”

Han Xing was stunned and sighed: "Also, Miss Ji is a ...... under the fence."

Duanmu just pursed his lips and smiled, and didn't say anything more.

Han Xing looked at the light smile on the corner of Duanmu's scarlet mouth, and for some reason, she always felt that her smile seemed mysterious.

Han Xing was about to ask Duanmu Fei, when a little girl in Tsing Yi ran towards her and curtled her knees and said, "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, our county lord invites you to go over and play wooden shooting together." ”

The little maid said and pointed in the direction she came, Han Xing looked in the direction she pointed, and saw an old locust tree in front of her, Dangui beckoned to her, her eyes were shining, and her face was full of flying light.

As soon as she saw Dangui's mouth, Han Xing knew that she was calling herself to save the scene, and her eyes lit up.

She loves to turn the tide the most!

Han Xing followed the little girl in Tsing Yi with great interest, leaving Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei sisters laughing.

Duanmu Fei took the pen again and continued to paint her "Fire Carp Picture", adding water waves and ripples to the painting, as well as the petals that accidentally floated into the pond, the petals rose and fell in the water, fluttering, and I don't know whether they were drifting with the tide or being teased by those fire carp......

Duanmu Jun watched his sister paint intently, and his eyes gradually became stupid.

On the white rice paper, the blue waves ripple, the lotus leaf field, the blue wave and the lotus leaf are almost integrated, in a piece of blue color, seven or eight fiery red fire carp flick the tail of the fish smartly, or play with each other, or chase each other, or spit bubbles, or spin, or fly up from the water, throwing out a clear splash in the air......

Looking at this picture, Duanmujun felt that she seemed to vaguely hear the sound of water splashing, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and she was reluctant to look away.

I don't know how long it took, Duanmu Fei finally put away the pen and smiled with satisfaction.

The effect of this "Fire Carp Picture" was not as good as she expected.

"Zhen Zhen, you say, is it better to use this picture to embroider a cloak or make a skirt?" Duanmu's face showed a deep groan.

Duanmu Fei had already thought about it, and said with a smile: "Sister, how about you make a set of riding clothes?" "If you let the needlework room rush, it will be nice for my sister to wear it next time she goes to play Kemari.

Thinking about it, Duanmu smiled more cheerfully, his eyebrows and eyes crooked.

Duanmu Fei carefully dried the ink, and beckoned the maid from Luhua Pavilion on the side, "I'm tired of getting me a painttube." ”

"Yes, Fourth Miss Duanmu." The maid bent her knees to receive her order, and she turned to leave, but she happened to collide with an oncoming little maid.

The little maid let out a nervous whisper, and the tray in her hand fell out.

"Bang! Syllable! ”

The tray fell heavily to the ground, and even the two cups of peony wine on the tray were broken, and after the glass cup shattered, the red wine splashed in all directions, just splashing on the red pleated skirt of Duanmu's crimson water, which looked like it was dyed with blood, shocking.

"The four girls of Duanmu forgive their sins." The little maid was so frightened that she apologized again and again, "It's all slaves who are too careless." "The little maid was almost crying.

Duanmu Fei didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "I brought a dress, just change it." With that, she told Bi Chan to go to the carriage and get a new dress.

The little maid breathed a sigh of relief, "Then the slave maid will lead the girl to the ink Xuan in the back to change clothes." ”

Duanmujun invited a maid from Luhua Pavilion to look at the painting, and he accompanied Duanmu Fei to the direction of the backyard with the little maid.

"Duanmu girl, fourth girl, please go this way."

The little maid walked in front to lead the way, led Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei around the pond in front, and walked through a cobblestone path to a few hundred-year-old locust trees in front.

"Two girls, after the locust forest in front, it's Ink Xuan."

These five or six hundred-year-old locust trees are also one of the wonderful sights in the Luhua Pavilion, with thick trunks that can only be hugged by three or four girls, and the canopy is luxuriant like a huge flower umbrella.

At this time of year, the locust flowers, like strings of silver bells, will hang all over the branches, which is very lovely.

The breeze was blowing, rustling the branches and leaves, and the surroundings were very quiet.

In addition to the elegant fragrance of acacia flowers, there is also the woman's voice.

Duanmu moved his eyebrows, and the sisters continued to walk forward with the little girl, and the closer they got to the old locust tree in front of them, the clearer their voices became.

"Ji Lanzhou, you deliberately pretended to be pitiful, just to embarrass me, don't you!"

"Do you think I'm going to take you for nothing?!"

"I won't just settle this account!"

The girl's voice became more and more sharp, and she became more and more excited.

Her shrill voice was very recognizable, and Duanmufei immediately heard that this was Wang Wanru, the fifth girl of the Wang family, and Duanmujun beside her looked at each other.

Duanmufei stopped, and followed the prestige, behind a certain thick old locust tree, Wang Wanru and Ji Lanzhou could be vaguely seen standing in the shadows under the tree.

Immediately afterwards, I listened to Ji Lanzhou's delicate voice coming with the wind: "Like my cousin, today's flower viewing party invited many dignitaries in Beijing, and yesterday's grandfather and grandmother also specially told us to entertain guests...... And the four girls of Duanmu are also there. Like a cousin, you should still focus on the overall situation...... We'll talk about it when we get back, so don't let outsiders see the joke. ”

"Ji Lanzhou, when you slapped me just now, why didn't you want to make outsiders see the joke?!" Wang Wanru interrupted Ji Lanzhou impatiently, "Don't use chicken feathers as arrows!" What about the four girls of Duanmu? Do you think I'm scared of her? ”

As she spoke, Wang Wanru showed a touch of disdain on her face, remembering the ear of her grandfather, grandmother and parents yesterday, and asked her to get closer to the four girls of the Duanmu family today.

This Duanmu family is just from a poor family, and I don't know what my grandfather, grandmother and parents think, why should they bow to the Duanmu family in the Xuanwu Marquis Mansion!

The eldest girl and the fourth girl of the Duanmu family are also embarrassed, and they deliberately followed the fourth princess late, and they don't know what they are showing off? !

Even if they are the granddaughters of Shoufu and the cousins of the princess, there are many noblewomen in this capital who are more noble than them and whose family backgrounds are more prominent than them!

"Like cousin, of course I didn't mean that." Ji Lanzhou looked a little apprehensive, like a frightened deer, "Miss Duanmu is also a girl from the dignified Shoufu family, and her grandfather and grandmother have also said ......it."

"The first assistant?!" Wang Wanru said mockingly, "Hmph, what's wrong with the dignified Shoufu?!" I see, this Duanmu family is just like this, I heard that the Duanmu girl is almost seventeen years old, and the filial piety period has long passed, but she has not yet decided to marry, maybe she is infected with a bad disease, or there is something unsightly inside...... You can't get married! ”

"Otherwise, how can there be a few younger sisters who are married first, and her eldest sister still depends on the reason that she does not marry at home!"

"Like a cousin...... Ji Lanzhou's delicate face was even more flustered, biting his slightly pale lower lip, looking around in panic, and persuading, "Don't talk about it anymore......"

"Why can't I say that?!" Wang Wanru became more and more energetic the more she spoke, and her voice was full of disdain, "Just now I saw that the second and third girls of Duanmu quietly went to the back, hmph, I don't know what they want to do sneakily, they are all raccoon dogs!" ”

"No matter how bad the rules of our Duanmu family are, it is better than the rights and wrongs of the Xuanwu Marquis Mansion behind the scenes."

A crisp and soft female voice suddenly sounded, revealing a hint of careless coldness in the rustling of flowers and leaves.

Wang Wanru's face turned pale all of a sudden, unable to move like petrification, and watched Duanmu Fei walk out from behind a few old locust trees and enter her field of vision.

Why are they both here?! Wang Wanru's heart was pounding in shock, and the advice of the elders in the family was still in her ears.

Thinking of the solemn faces of her grandfather and father at that time, Wang Wanru's face turned even paler, and she panicked.

If these words were spread by the people he just said, my grandfather would have killed him, and even my father would not let him go......

"It's not me!" Wang Wanru said in a stiff voice, her slender fingers clenched the handkerchief in her hand tighter, and she raised her hand to point at Ji Lanzhou and said, "It's her." I didn't say what I just said, she said it. ”

Anyway, she just doesn't recognize it, who can do anything with her!

"Like a cousin......" Ji Lanzhou looked at Wang Wanru in disbelief, feeling as if she had been stabbed, her delicate body trembled, and she didn't know whether she was angry or surprised.

"Fifth sister, don't make trouble!"

At this moment, another familiar female voice shouted a little high, and it was difficult to hide the excitement in her tone.

Wang Wanru immediately heard that this was Wang Wanting's voice, her face changed slightly, and she turned around and followed the voice.

The canopy of these hundred-year-old locust trees is dense and the trunk is thick, just blocking a gazebo not far away, at this moment she turned around a little, only to see this pavilion, in the pavilion, or sitting or standing seven or eight girls, the girls all looked in the direction of Wang Wanru, all with subtle expressions.

Three of them are Wang Wanting and two Wang family girls.

Wang Wanting's face was not very good-looking, and her eyebrows were tightly locked.

She really slapped Wang Wanru's heart, but she could only press it. She was tired of playing with a few girls, so she rested in this pavilion, but she didn't expect to see Fang Cai's scene.

Wang Wan did this again and again, and repeatedly messed around in public, which simply made the Wang family lose face!

Wang Wanting was blessed apologetically, and smiled at Duanmu Jun and Duanmu Fei: "Duanmu eldest girl, fourth girl, my fifth sister has no intention ......"

"Third sister, fourth sister, sixth ......" Wang Wanru looked at the people in the pavilion crampedly, dumbfounded.

At this moment, Wang Wan was like falling into an ice cellar, her heart sank suddenly, and her whole body was extremely cold.

So many people have heard what I just said, and I can't hide it......

Wang Wanru's lips trembled violently, there was almost no blood on her face, and she blurted out without thinking: "She deliberately harmed me!" She pointed at Ji Lanzhou and emphasized, "She deliberately designed to frame me!" ”

Wang Wanru's voice became sharper, with a bit of hysterical despair, like a dying beast.

The girls in the pavilion did not speak, looking at Wang Wanru's expression more complicated, or frowning, or contemptuous, or sighing, or shaking their heads disapprovingly......

Obviously, no one believes Wang Wanru.

"......" Ji Lanzhou's lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end she didn't say anything, and lowered her head silently, her butterfly-like eyelashes fluttered gently, casting a faint shadow on her white eye sockets.

Another gust of wind blew, causing the branches in the canopy to crash against each other and crackle.

The wind was mixed with the whispers of the maidens.

"I heard that the Ji family has been passed down for three generations, and his ancestors have been imperial businessmen and have tens of thousands of family fortunes, but now he is only one daughter."

"When Mrs. Ji brought Miss Ji to the capital to join her parents, she brought all the wealth of the Ji family with her."

"Isn't that a mountain of gold and silver into the Hou Mansion?"

"yes...... I don't know who eats whom! ”

“……”

The girls talked to each other, and there was a bit of sarcasm in their voices.

------Off topic------

By the way, is there a girl who wants a keychain for Ain? Is it good to come back to the wave again this month?
