Chapter 12: The Heart Is Frosty

On the way back, the rain gradually stopped. Ye Ling put away the oil-paper umbrella, shook off the remaining raindrops on the umbrella, and entered the Song Mansion.

Seeing that Fan'er was standing in the compound, she seemed to be very anxious and stomped her feet again and again.

"Fan'er!" Ye Ling walked over while shaking the raindrops on the oil-paper umbrella.

When Fan'er saw Ye Ling return safely, she was very excited, and Fang Cai's extremely anxious appearance disappeared.

Fan'er went up to meet Ye Ling, and before Ye Ling could react, she hugged her: "Sister Ling!" You're back! I'm worried about dying! ”

Seeing that a trace of transparent and crystalline tears flashed in the eyes of the little girl's fair face, Ye Ling couldn't help but touch her forehead to comfort her.

"Okay, aren't I back now?"

"Sister Ling, Fan'er thought you had met a bad guy! Why did it take so long to come back? ”

"Hehe, Sister Ling is going to meet a friend!"

If Fan'er knew that she was going on a date, she would definitely get to the bottom of it, or don't tell her.

However, Ye Ling only felt that he was absent-minded today, and he seemed to be unable to do anything.

No, Fang Cai, pouring tea for Fan'er, was so distracted that he almost filled the entire table.

Watered the backyard with flowers, and almost watered those pots of flowers.

Do the kitchen a favor, and throw that good dish on the ground as rotten leaves.

Today, I was reprimanded by the housekeeper and the kitchen, but I was also distracted and could not listen. He said to them with dull eyes: "Well, good, yes." ”

"You say, you maid, ha, stay by Miss's side all day long, don't do anything, and say to serve Miss, Miss doesn't know if she is looking away, so she asked you to be the maid of the Song Mansion, and you don't serve Miss well all day long, just like a pig, you only know how to eat!"

Ye Ling was still as unrelenting as ever, her eyes were dull, her mind always appeared with Liu Gongzi's face, as well as those gentle eyes like water, looking at the face of the housekeeper in front of her, it was also Liu Gongzi's face, and she seemed to keep asking her: "Ling'er, do you like me?" ”

"Yes, yes."

The housekeeper saw that she insulted Ye Ling so much, she was still so happy, she couldn't help but make her have some big iron glasses, and looked at Ye Ling with a wink, how could this girl who even the old lady dare to scare on weekdays, how could she be cowardly today?

"This girl... The maid is crazy! The steward maid was so frightened that she hurriedly ran away, leaving only Ye Ling in place, standing there in a daze.

She recalled that day the lantern festival, the lights were dim, she met him for the first time, her heart stayed on him, and he bought a hairpin for her.

Today's small pavilion in the rain, the rain spread, wetting the whole pavilion, she held up the faint butter paper umbrella, that song of the sheng flute, she was fascinated, the figure in the pavilion was hard to find, he got up and put on earrings for her, at that moment, whether he was beating a drum in his heart, staying for her...

"Miss Ye, if we see each other again in the future, I will go to this pavilion."

"Later... Call me Ling'er. ”

Liufu.

Liu Gongzi was sprinkling some fish food on the surface of the lake, and all the small fish on the lake flocked to this side.

"Childe, but did you see that girl?" The guard asked, standing beside Childe.

"Well... See, Lin Feng, I went to the Song Mansion to report the news that day, and no one recognized you, right? Liu Gongzi still brushed up the sleeves of his somewhat pale blue shirt in a chic manner.

The guard also looked into the lake and said, "Don't worry, son, nothing will go wrong." ”

Liu Gongzi didn't speak again, fed the fish food for a while, stopped his movements, turned his head and walked down the pavilion porch, and the guards followed behind.

After sinking for a while, the son said, "This girl, really, looks like a frost." ”

"Childe, is this Miss Yuan?"

Liu Gongzi shook his head and sighed lightly.

"Shuang'er, she left a few years ago, this girl is very similar to Shuang'er in terms of personality and behavior, and sometimes, I even think that Shuang'er is back."

The guard said again: "It's possible, it's really Miss Yuan!" ”

Liu Gongzi sighed softly again, and then shook his head: "This girl and Shuang'er have different appearances, maybe they are just a little similar inside." ”

Seeing that Childe was a little sad, the guard also sighed lightly: "Childe, over the years, you have been a lot of sorrow for Miss Yuan, although the deceased is gone, Childe, if you think that Miss Ye is good, why not..."

Liu Gongzi waved his hand and said, "Perhaps, it's just that the girl has the shadow of frost." ”

The guards did not speak.

"Childe!" I saw one of the guards coming.

"What?" Childe asked unhurriedly.

"Madame, please."

"Okay, I see, let's go down."

"Yes!"

Liu Gongzi flicked his sleeves and put his hands behind his back.

The guard next to him snickered and said, "Childe, presumably Madame is looking for a beauty for you again!" ”

After saying that, the boy gave him a look, and the guard covered his mouth, not daring to make a sound.

When he came to the lady's room, Liu Gongzi saluted and asked, "What is the matter with the mother looking for the child?" ”

When the lady turned her head, she saw her eyes like ginkgo, a lot of fine hairpins on her head, a violet robe, some jade rings in her hands, and some rouge on her face.

When the lady saw Liu Gongzi coming, she got up and came to him, held his arm, looked up and down, left and right, and her eyes seemed to bloom.

"Oh, look at my son, the more handsome he gets!"

Liu Gongzi was a little helpless.

"Mother, tell me anything!"

The lady returned to the main chair and motioned for Liu Gongzi to sit next to her.

After tasting the tea, the lady smiled and said, "Feng'er, mother looks at your age, you should get married... Ahh ”

As if he had guessed his wife's intentions, Liu Gongzi covered his temples and closed his eyes lightly.

"Mother, you've discussed with your child 6 times this month!" Liu Gongzi had a headache.

"Really? This... Mother cares about you too! Madame counted with her fingers.

"Mother, if you really care about the child, don't force the child anymore!"

When the lady heard this, she seemed to be a little unhappy, and she glanced at Liu Gongzi, and slapped the table.

"You kid, why do you talk like that! I think your father has been doing business abroad for many years, and I don't do all the family affairs alone! Now, you are so tired of officiating at your marriage, do you still want to become a monk? Mrs. was a little angry, seeing that Liu Gongzi was silent, he sank, and seeing that Liu Gongzi was so reluctant, she also slowed down her tone, and said: "Feng'er, mother knows, you can't let go of that Yuan Shuang'er, but you have to understand that people can't be resurrected after death, although she was alive, her mother also liked her very much, but everyone has their own lives, the so-called red face and thin life, Feng'er, mother doesn't want you, you can't forget a dead person!" ”

Liu Gongzi didn't seem to be able to listen to it, and was a little angry, so he stood up: "Mother, if it's okay, the child will go first!" ”

"Stop!" Madame roared, walked up to Liu Gongzi, and said, "What? Is this the attitude towards mothers? Did the mother say it wrong? ”

Liu Gongzi seemed to feel that Fang Cai's attitude was not good, so he sank and was a little angry, so he turned around and saluted his mother: "Mother, the child is wrong, the child is not because of frost." ”

Madame is not so harsh at this time

"Oh? Does that Feng'er have a sweetheart? Which girl is it? ”

Liu Gongzi shook his head, and said to his wife: "Mother, the child has no sweetheart. ”

When Mrs. heard this, she was a little relieved: "That's good, Feng'er is neither because of Yuan Shuang'er, nor because of her sweetheart, then listen to your mother, mother, I will find you a woman who is both talented and beautiful, and who will be your companion!" ”

Liu Gongzi had no choice but to agree and left.
