Chapter 18: A Glimpse of the Flood (3)
Entering the Song Mansion compound, but seeing that the pavilions and pavilions here are not only wide, but also gorgeous, the four corners of the hall are high and upturned, wrapped in platinum. The east and west corners of the door are all mothers-in-law, small maids, and maids coming in and out, and there are many people.
Walk through the three gates, enter the upper hall, look around, see the white jade on the ground, inlaid with gold beads, the beams of the house are carved with the peony, hibiscus and other flowers that symbolize wealth and auspiciousness, the petals are fresh and exquisite, even the stamens are delicate and recognizable, the two sides pass through the mountain verandah wings, hang all kinds of birds and phoenix pictures. There is a night pearl hanging on the roof, shining brightly, which is really splendid.
is so poor and beautiful, Bai Hongyan is the first time to see it. Although the specifications of the White Mansion and the Song Mansion are similar, compared to the elegance of the White Mansion, this Song Mansion is magnificent, which dazzles him. He thought, "This Song Mansion is really luxurious!" He couldn't help but think of the poverty scene of the people's houses in Qiaodong, and sighed slightly.
Just as he was distracted, the housekeeper suddenly turned around and said, "Mr. Bai, please come with me." Bai Hongyan went out of the hall with the housekeeper, turned the interstitial screen, and there were three small halls, and behind the hall was the main courtyard at the back.
Entering the weeping flower door, the housekeeper suddenly turned around and saluted, and said with a smile: "Mr. Bai, please, my young lady is waiting for you in the backyard!" When he had finished speaking, he withdrew himself.
Bai Hongyan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Old man, where are you going?" ”
I saw a dozen maids dressed in red and green sitting in front of the door. When the maids saw Bai Hongyan, they greeted him with a smile, three or four people raised the curtain cage and saluted Bai Hongyan, and the rest of the people scrambled to take the scroll he was holding, and led him to go inside.
Bai Hongyan was surrounded by all the maids, walked through the hall, crossed the stone bridge, and wore flowers and willows. He saw that these maids were all looking at him with a smile on their faces, and whispered as they walked. He felt extremely uncomfortable, wiped his sweat, and thought: "This eldest lady of a rich and noble family, pampered, is served by so many people, her sex must be arrogant, and I don't know if I will get along well in the future?" ”
Thinking about it, after walking another hundred steps, I suddenly heard the maids say: "Miss! Miss! Mr. White is here! Mr. White is here! Bai Hongyan raised his head again, and the maids had quietly retreated. When I looked around, I saw a pond in front of me, and I saw that the water was covered with flower petals, and the water was crystal clear, and carp were rushing to the surface of the water. There are two rows of weeping willows by the pool, mixed with peach blossoms, and the spring breeze is blowing, but there is no trace of dust.
Behind the pond, is a two-storey wooden building, downstairs is full of narcissus before and after, inside the paper window wooden couch, where you can see, but the board bed wooden bench, the bamboo table next to the bed is placed on a yaoqin, a sword, compared with the front hall, the wealth and nobility here are like a wash, there is a quiet and vulgar artistic conception.
Bai Hongyan only said that the person who lives here must be the gardener of the Song Mansion. There was no one around, and he couldn't help but wonder, why did those maids bring him here? Where is that eldest lady?
Suddenly, someone behind him smiled lightly, Bai Hongyan turned his head, and a carp jumped up in the pond, turned over in the air, "bang", and fell into the water, splashing, the breeze blew, and the petals danced all over the sky.
Suddenly, on the other side of the pond, a woman looked at Bai Hongyan with a smile, with long hair and a shawl, her skin was as bright as snow, wearing a lychee golden hairpin, and a red satin skirt embroidered with water patterns.
The girl waved her hand to Bai Hongyan and said with a smile: "Nerd, no, no, Mr. Bai, I have been waiting here for a long time, and I am waiting for Mr. to teach the little girl to solve my doubts." ”
Bai Hongyan was stunned for a moment, thinking: "She is the eldest lady of the Song Mansion!" Hurriedly stepped forward, looked at it again, and couldn't help but spin around. He saw that the girl's eyebrows, nose and nose were exactly the same as those of "Brother Jin", and said dumbly: "You...... You ......" only said the word "you" and couldn't take it anymore. On second thought, "That's not right! Why is Miss Song's surname Jin? ”
Bai Hongyan saw this girl's fairy appearance, Xia Zi and Moon Rhyme, delicate and moving, beautiful and refined. He is like a dream, this situation, this scene, such a beauty, can't help but think of Li Taibai's poems: Clouds want clothes, flowers want to look, and the spring breeze blows Revlon. If it weren't for the jade mountain, it would meet Yaotai under the moon.
The girl smiled and said, "I am your brother Jin." I saw her clothes fluttering gently in the wind, bowed deeply, and said with a smile: "The little woman's surname is Song Hongyue, and I have seen Mr. Bai, this is polite!" ”
Bai Hongyan's heart was beating, and he only needed to take another look, and he felt like he had arrived in the blissful fairyland. He was distraught and slowly took a few steps back.
Song Hongyue frowned slightly and said, "What? Don't know me? ”
Bai Hongyan said stupidly: "Brother Jin...... Miss...... What's going on......"
Song Hongyue said with a smile: "I will be your master, this time it is your turn to be my husband, and we will settle down." Come on, let the teacher finally open the Tongtian Spirit Treasure for you, close your eyes quickly! ”
Bai Hongyan listened to the tone of her voice, isn't it "Brother Jin"? He unconsciously closed his eyes, only to feel a warm little finger touch the center of his eyebrows. When I opened my eyes again, I saw Song Hongyue covering her mouth and giggling.
Bai Hongyan stretched out his hand to touch the center of his eyebrows, and there was a touch of red rouge powder. Bai Hongyan looked at her with a pair of plump autumn eyes, how did this naughty young man who had been called a brother and sister to him for a year suddenly become the eldest lady of the Song Mansion? Looking at each other, you look at me, I look at you, the two of them are speechless, the past time vaguely appears in front of them, and the smile gently ripples on the face.
Suddenly, Bai Hongyan thought of what "Brother Jin" said when he left: "This hexagram I divined for you is a marriage hexagram." On the first day of the next month, it will be fulfilled. I hope my brother will cherish it! In an instant, there was a ripple in his heart, and he knew that his daughter's family had good intentions.
Bai Hongyan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, calmed down the turbulent mood, and immediately returned the salute and said, "Miss, what should I call you in the future." ”
Song Hongyue thought for a while and said, "I call you Mr. Bai, and you call me Miss, and we will have a separation, which is not good." Well...... From now on, I'll call you Yanlang. What about you...... You call me Yueniang. ”
Bai Hongyan's heart gradually calmed down, shook his head and smiled: "You said that your surname is Jin Wukong, I actually believe it." You called me a nerd, but you didn't wronged me, it seems that you read too many books, but you don't understand the world. I can't call you Brother Kim anymore. ”
Song Hongyue said with a smile: "Opposite my house, there is indeed a Miss Jin, who is very annoying. I pretended to be a beggar and called myself Kim, trying to ruin her reputation. I never thought I would have met you. By the way, Yanlang, what are you going to teach me today? In addition to knowing a few words and a few poems by Li Taibai, I haven't read any books. Otherwise, let's practice swords together! ”
Bai Hongyan blushed and said, "Since I have responded to the matter of teaching, I have to teach you well." I brought a copy of "University", which is an article on the Confucian idea of self-cultivation and governing the country and leveling the world, which was originally the forty-second article of "Xiao Dai Liji", which is said to have been written by Zeng Zi, and was actually a Confucian work in the Qin and Han dynasties. ”
Song Hongyue was so uninterested when she heard this, she suddenly remembered an important thing, her face changed, and she said solemnly: "I have to tell you something important!" It's about your good sister, Satsuki! ”
