Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Flowing Water (Three Watches)
In a blink of an eye, it was the third day of the third month of March, and Luo Yan took Ran Ying to the suburbs.
Shangsi Festival is a festival to welcome spring, and unmarried young men and women will go to the suburbs to meet secretly. If Luo Yan knew that Li Yu would go, and she was embarrassed to go alone, she also took Ran Ying to go with her.
There is a river in the suburbs, and the meandering water meanders. In the distance, I saw a group of young people gathered on the bank of the river to play a game of flowing water, such as Luo Yan pulling Ran Ying over to watch the excitement.
This game was popular among young men and women of the gentry clan. Put the amphora feather cup filled with wine on top of the lotus leaf, put it in the running water, let it float down the river, and stop in front of whoever will drink the wine in the cup. Wang Xizhi once wrote in the "Preface to the Lanting Collection": "There are clear streams and turbulent streams, reflecting the left and right, which is regarded as flowing water." ”
Gradually, teenagers and girls who are interested in each other use this game to communicate with each other.
When the two of them arrived at the waterside in the suburbs, as Luo Yan saw in the group of teenagers gathered downstream not far away, Li Yu also crowded in it to drink and play. He didn't care about it, and when he saw a wine glass flowing down, he went to grab it, and he didn't look at who put the wine glass upstream.
If Luo Yan saw it, he was a little unhappy at the moment.
But among the teenagers over there, someone noticed her.
Not long after she came to Jingzhou, all the young people of the upper class clan in Jingzhou knew that Jingzhou Thorn Shi had a beautiful wife and sister to be in the boudoir. At this time, when the young men saw her coming, they were all looking forward to it, waiting for her to put down the wine glass.
Seeing that Ru Luo Yan's face was not very good, Ran Ying laughed at her: "Oh, isn't it that fool Li Yu who drank two glasses of other people's wine, why is he so angry?" Who made you late? Your Li Lang can't wait. After speaking, he giggled for a while, and then said: "I told you a long time ago, if you like him, let him know earlier." He's a stupid man, you can't guess anything if you don't say he's stupid. ”
For example, Luo Yan listened to her half-mocking and half-threatening words, so she stretched out a wine glass, poured the wine and put it on the lotus leaf, and watched the wine glass flow downstream with some nervousness.
When the teenagers saw that Ru Luo Yan put down the wine glass, they couldn't wait for the lotus leaf to stop by itself, and they all stretched out their hands to grab it. Li Hao squeezed inside stupidly, and also joined in the excitement to grab it, but he never grabbed it. When Luo Yan saw it, he wanted to give him wine, and he put it on several times, and was finally robbed by Li Yu. Li Yu raised the wine glass in his hand and shouted, "I grabbed it!" I grabbed it! ”
For example, Luo Yan lowered her head shyly and laughed.
When all the teenagers over there saw this, they all made "oh-" sounds, and they all went to tease Li Hao: "It turns out that the wife and sister of the assassin family like you!" ”
Li Yu came back to his senses at this time, saw the slim figure of Luo Yan from a distance, and thought of all kinds of things since Chang'an accompanied him all the way, and then he understood. He looked at Ru Luo Yan's pretty figure, his heart fluttered for no reason, touched his head and smiled stupidly.
For example, Luo Yan is pretty and moving, has a straightforward temper, and is kind and simple-minded, she is really a rare good girl.
The young men instigated Li Hao to come over and return the wine glass, and a group of people coaxed and embraced, pushing Li Hao half-pushing and half-pulling, and shouted at Ru Luoyan: "Li Lang is here!" Li Lang is here! ”
Li Yu smirked, handed the feather cup in his hand to Ru Luoyan, wanted to raise his eyes to look at her, but lowered his head embarrassedly, and said, "The wine glass will be returned to you...... What kind of wine is this, it's delicious......"
The teenagers burst into laughter.
Ru Luo Yan took the wine glass from his hand with a red face and said angrily: "What a fool!" ”
"Fool ——!" The young men dragged out their voices and laughed, until they coaxed Luo Yan's face as red as a drop of blood, and their heads almost fell to the ground.
Seeing that she was embarrassed, Li Hao opened his hand to coax the group of teenagers: "Oh, what nonsense!" Let's go! Go away, go away! ”
Ran Ying watched from the sidelines, thinking that this time Luo Yan got what she wanted, and finally didn't have to doubt her anymore.
For no reason, I thought of Yuwentai again. I don't know what that idiot is doing now. Spring is good, he won't be bored in the study to watch the folds.
I don't know if the begonias in his yard have bloomed.
Does he think of her once in a while? After more than 40 days, I don't know if more than 40 days is enough to forget a person.
At this time, Yu Wentai was passing by Qingsong Academy because of something. He couldn't help but stop his horse, remembering that it was also the time of year last year, and he met Ran Ying here for the first time dressed as a man and mingling with a group of students. Today, the academy is still there, but most of the students in it have changed.
In a year's time, things have changed from people.
"Ah Ying!" For example, Luo Yan saw Ran Ying stunned, and handed a feather cup to her: "What are you thinking?" Come and play too! She whispered in her ear, "The one over there in the stone blue shirt looks like a gentleman." Ah Ying give him the wine. ”
Ran Ying glanced at the young man as Luo Yan said, his eyebrows were clear and his eyes were weak, and he kept peeking at Ran Ying, and when he saw that she was also going to see him, he lowered his eyebrows in embarrassment, and there was nowhere to put his hands and feet.
Ran Ying poured wine into the wine glass, put it on the lotus leaf, and put it into the water like that, watching the green lotus leaf staggering down along the current, and it seemed that it was about to flow in front of the group of teenagers.
Although the young people did not know whose girl this woman was, they saw that she was tall, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and a cold expression, and that she had a different style compared with the shy and gorgeous girls, so they eagerly wanted to drink her wine and get acquainted with her.
Who wanted to wait for the lotus leaf to flow downstream, a person suddenly walked to the river, gently stretched the ape arm, and fished the lotus leaf out of the water steadily.
When the teenagers saw that they were being taken first, they couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Ran Ying raised her eyes and looked, yo, isn't that Qingyan?
Qing Yan held the wine glass, walked up to Ran Ying, drank it dry, and called softly with a smile: "Ah Ying, I see you again." ”
Ran Ying was very surprised that he appeared here, she thought of him a few days ago, and she saw him today.
When she met her old acquaintance in another country, she laughed happily and said, "How can I meet you anywhere." ”
Qing Yan smiled and said, "I heard that Ah Ying was hurt and left Chang'an, so I don't feel at ease with you, so I came over to take a look." ”
Ru Luoyan on the side pulled Ran Ying's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Who is this?" ”
Ran Ying said: "This is a friend of mine. I was seriously ill once, and he saved me. ”
Qingyan didn't seem to see Ru Luoyan, only looked Ran Ying up and down, and sighed twice: "Oops, Ah Ying has lost a lot of weight." It's really distressing. ”
Ran Ying pouted: "Then treat my injuries quickly." ”
Qing Yan smiled: "I'm not a doctor. Even if I were a doctor, I wouldn't be able to heal you. - It's a pity, I thought that after the trip to Qinzhou, he would change. He pinched Ran Ying's face: "Who would want to hurt my Ah Ying like this." ”
Ran Ying shook off his hand dissatisfiedly: "Don't talk nonsense, who is your Ah Ying!" ”
Qing Yan was not annoyed, and still smiled: "Ah Ying, I am so good to you, you don't even take me to heart at all." He leaned down and whispered in Ran Ying's ear, "Tomorrow morning, I will wait for you at the east gate of the city." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
