Passing through the moon gate and entering the garden, Song Lingyue breathed a sigh of relief, she remembered that when she walked out of the garden, she arrived at Xiaoxiang Courtyard, where she dined in the evening, and when she walked there, she could know how to go back.

Song Lingyue quickened her pace, and the hem of her skirt was hooked by the branches that Yueji poked out, but she didn't realize it.

Walking all the way forward, she vaguely saw a faint light floating not far away, Song Lingyue was overjoyed in her heart, and hurriedly quickened her pace.

When she got to the bright place, she was dumbfounded, this was not the Xiaoxiang Courtyard she thought she thought was at all, but an artificial lake.

There are many water lilies planted on the surface of the lake, the evening breeze brings the fragrance of lotus flowers, and you can hear the sound of frogs in the pond.

The silver moonlight sprinkled on the lotus leaves, and the dewdrops were round, rolling on the lotus leaves like night pearls, blooming with a faint brilliance.

"Didn't I run to the East Wing?" Song Lingyue muttered to herself as she walked.

According to her observations along the way, she had discovered that the entire Song Mansion was built according to the principle of symmetry.

If you look down from above and divide the entire Song Mansion into two, then this mansion should be able to overlap perfectly.

The only difference is that the north window of the east wing can see the peak of Fairy Peak in the distance, while the west wing can only see the beautiful scenery of the lake as in front of you when you open the window.

"Oops! Oops! It seems that he really ran to the east wing! Song Lingyue secretly screamed badly, but her eyes couldn't help but linger on the lotus pond in front of her.

Squinting his eyes, there is a pavilion in the center of the lake, just in the middle of the lake, covered by lotus leaves and lotus flowers, with this ethereal moonlight, it is really like a fairyland.

Song Lingyue couldn't help but yearn for it, and she forgot her hungry stomach, climbed the stairs, and came to the lake.

The one that connects the lake and the pavilion in the center of the lake is not an ordinary stone bridge, but a bluestone slab stone pillar.

On the plane of the stone pillar, it is carved into the shape of lotus leaves by skilled craftsmen, and if you don't look closely, you will really mistake it for the lotus leaves carved in the stone to float on the surface of the lake.

Song Lingyue carefully stepped on the path where the fake lotus leaf was ridden, and by the moonlight, she jumped three times and two times, and she had already walked a little and a half way.

"Watch your step." A pleasant male voice came from the air, which frightened Song Lingyue, who was focusing on the stone bridge under her feet, and her feet were weak and she almost didn't fall.

"Beware!" The voice was full of concern.

Song Lingyue squinted her eyes and raised her eyes to look, it turned out that there were already people in the Lake Pavilion who were already admiring the lake and mountains.

Seeing that Song Lingyue was frightened and almost fell, the man hurriedly took the fire fold and lit the lantern at hand to illuminate Song Lingyue.

Through the faint candlelight in the lantern, Song Lingyue recognized that the person was none other than Song Xuanran.

With the help of candlelight, Song Lingyue easily boarded the Huxin Pavilion, patted her chest, and glared at Song Xuanran angrily: "Your sudden voice almost didn't scare me." ”

"Not mine." Song Xuanran smiled apologetically, not only was he not angry at Song Lingyue's coquettishness just now, but showed a touch of joy.

"You can't sleep?"

"You haven't slept yet?"

The two spoke almost in unison.

Song Lingyue couldn't help but snort, and smiled embarrassedly: "I didn't eat enough for dinner, I wanted to sneak into the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat, but I didn't expect to get lost, and I came here in a daze." ”

"Why don't you call them Huan'er Pei'er? Could it be that they all slept to death? Song Xuanran's face was cold, and he looked a little angry.

Song Lingyue hurriedly waved her hand: "I made my own opinion, seeing that they slept soundly, I didn't want to quarrel with them, so I secretly left it out by myself." However, if it weren't for that, how would I know that your home still has such a beautiful scenery? ”

Song Xuanran's frowning brows eased a lot, and motioned for Song Lingyue to sit down beside him.

"Look at what you've done, it's embarrassing." Song Xuanran suddenly stretched out his hand and stroked the top of Song Lingyue's head, Song Lingyue was so frightened that she shrank and was about to dodge, "Don't move, you have leaves stuck on your head." ”

His tone was very soft and soft, and his slender fingers delicately pulled down the leaves standing on Song Lingyue's hair to show her.

"Maybe I accidentally got it while walking through the garden." Song Lingyue didn't care very much, waved her hand, and asked Song Xuanran: "Are there any other leaves?" ”

She turned her head sideways and asked Song Xuanran to help her check, Song Xuanran shook her head, "No, that's it." ”

Song Lingyue brushed her hair with confidence, Song Xuanran noticed that the hem of her skirt was stained with mud and a little dirty, but Song Lingyue didn't seem to notice, and a pair of idle eyes looked at the surrounding beauty curiously.

Song Xuanran also pretended not to see it, chuckled, and enjoyed the beautiful scenery in front of him with Song Lingyue.

A gust of night breeze blows across the lake, blowing lotus flowers, the flower shadows shake, the wind is graceful, and the fragrance is fragrant.

Song Lingyue couldn't help but squint her eyes and sighed: "It's so comfortable!" Compared with your house, my small yard is no different from a pig's nest, and I am worried that I will not want to go back after living with you for a long time. ”

Song Xuanran pursed his lips and smiled: "Then it's good to live here, anyway, I don't have much else here, it's just that there are many rooms." ”

"That's so embarrassing." Song Lingyue stuck out her tongue.

"What's so embarrassing? My mother also told me before that there are many people in the family to become popular, otherwise she would always feel empty when she lives in such a big house alone. Under the night sky, Song Xuanran's inky eyes shone brightly.

Song Lingyue could only laugh dryly, not knowing how to answer. said that it would not be lonely for Song Xuanran to marry another daughter-in-law to accompany the old lady, but she had just heard Huan'er say how Miss Xu tried to harm Yanyan, wouldn't mentioning this add to Song Xuanran's heart?

"Living in such a big house, but it is inevitable to feel lonely. Don't you have any other relatives in your family? Ask them to come and live together, won't it be lively when there are many people? Song Lingyue pursed the corners of her lips.

Song Lingyue's voice had just fallen, but Song Xuanran's face was gloomy, "Those relatives ......"

He pursed his lips and hooked up a sarcastic arc, "My mother and I didn't wait to see us when we were poor, and when we saw that we made money, we all came to fight the autumn breeze one by one." If you really want to call those relatives, my Song family will really have no peace. ”

"Ugh." Song Lingyue patted Song Xuanran's shoulder in understanding, wanting to comfort but feeling powerless that she couldn't speak.

"So, if you're willing to stay, that's fine." Song Xuanran turned the topic back again.

Eyes burning.

Song Lingyue pursed her lips as if she hadn't heard, and her eyes fell on the lotus flower not far away.

"Yeon-yeon likes you very much and is very close to you. Since her mother left, I have rarely seen her so close to anyone. Song Xuanran seemed to sigh, "Didn't you just ask me why I didn't sleep so late?" To tell the truth, in fact, today is Tong'er's life sacrifice. Tong'er is Yanyan's mother. ”

"How to ...... up and down in the house" attaches great importance to sacrifices, both ancient and modern, and it is the birth sacrifice of Yanyan's mother, so how should the house be worshipped.

But along the way, let alone worship, there was not even a person who burned paper.

"We didn't dare to tell Yanyan that her mother was gone, for fear that she would be too young to understand." Song Xuanran's eyes were slightly downcast, and when he talked about his daughter, a layer of soft light appeared on his handsome face. "We only told Yeon-yeon that her mother had gone far away. I'm going to tell her the truth when she's older. ”

"You have worked hard, it's hard to hide from Yanyan like this, it's difficult." Song Ling Yueguang thought that there were dozens of people in this huge Song Mansion alone, and it was so difficult to hide from Yanyan.

"It's fine." Song Xuanran only replied with these two words, his tone was very light, but there was a murderous aura.

Before I thought about it, it was not that there were no people chewing the root of the tongue, and they must have been disposed of by Song Xuanran.

"Yeon-yeon rarely gets close to other people, but you are the exception." Song Xuanran raised his eyes and looked deeply at Song Lingyue's eyes, his eyes were scorching, which made Song Lingyue feel pressured.

"So......" his thin lips lifted slightly, and a trace of apprehension crossed his handsome face, "you, do you want to stay?" ”

"Stay?" Song Lingyue was taken aback.

"Yes, stay! Become Yanyan's mother and become the ...... of Song Mansion Hostess. The last three words escaped from Song Xuanran's thin lips, and Song Lingyue almost didn't break her jaw.

"You're not kidding." Song Lingyue pulled an embarrassing arc, "Brother Xuanran, this joke is not funny at all!" ”

Her heart was pounding, and she took two steps back nervously, her face already in a defensive posture.

Song Xuanran didn't get any closer and kept his distance from her: "I'm serious, I really want you to stay." Yanyan likes you very much, my mother also likes you, if you come to be Yanyan's mother and my mother's daughter-in-law, they will be very happy. ”

"What about you?" Song Lingyue couldn't help but blurt out, and she was a little remorseful after asking. She asked this, don't be misunderstood by Song Xuanran.

But obviously, Song Xuanran really misunderstood, his originally dark eyes were instantly lit up, and a faint smile escaped from the corner of his lips:

"Me? Naturally, I'm happy. From the first time I saw you, I felt that you were different, unlike any other woman I had ever met. ”

"Huh." At this moment, Song Lingyue felt that she couldn't seem to say anything other than laughing.

"Lingyue, don't laugh at me, what I said is true." Song Xuanran's expression was sincere, and there was even a shyness in his eyes that only a young man could have, which gave Song Lingyue goosebumps.

"Lingyue, you are different." He looked at Song Lingyue's eyes with a little more fanaticism, "There are so many women who don't care about my Song family's wealth, but there are only you, only you, I sent so many gold and silver treasures, you don't care about it, treat money as dung, from that moment I know that you are not a woman who loves vanity, but the woman I Song Xuanran wants." ”

Song Lingyue had the urge to cry.

Big brother, who told you that she treats money like dung?! She also loves money very much! It's just a little more principled!
