He was born thin, with a slender body and clear eyebrows, as if drawn in ink. I was slightly stunned, as if I had seen this person somewhere.

Wu Zhen stopped his steps and whispered, "Let's go sit somewhere else, shall we?" ”

I thought the same as her, we haven't finished talking yet, and there has to be a clear plan about this matter. How can you say those things in front of outsiders?

Just as we were about to move, the boy stood up and called out, "Witch girl." ”

I turned my head suspiciously, and he smiled slightly: "I didn't expect to meet a witch girl here, my surname is Qi, Qi Boxuan." After a pause, he said, "We've met in Tujiazhuang." ”

I remembered for a moment why I thought he looked familiar.

In Tujiazhuang! The boy who sent the centipede and forced the owner of Tu Zhuang to commit suicide! I didn't see his face, but I was impressed by his voice.

But—I haven't spoken to him in person, how does he know about me?

The girl behind him said with a smile: "This is the Wuning girl that Brother Yao said?" I didn't expect to meet here. Meeting is fate, why don't you sit together? ”

Wu Zhen looked at them warily.

I had doubts in my heart and politely refused: "Thank you." But we've been out for a while, and we're about to go back. ”

The girl came over, she was born beautiful and beautiful, her gestures were graceful and measured, and she knew at a glance that she was a woman of the family.

"The witch girl must have doubts in her heart, and she does not know where we people come from. My surname is Yue, and my single name is a Tong character. Bo Xuan is my cousin. She pointed to the girl sitting upright behind her: "That's my sister Yue Zhu." ”

She is polite, and we can't just turn around and leave, we can only greet her and report her name.

"Miss Wu Ning, Miss Wu Zhen, maybe you have some misunderstanding about my cousin, and he is too anxious. It is better for everyone to sit down and explain things clearly, and save you from doubts, there is always a knot there, and after a long time, I am afraid that the prejudice will become deeper and deeper. ”

Surname Yue? I suddenly remembered the last time Uncle Bai heard him talk about the number of great families in the capital.

"I don't know what Yue Xiaosheng's seniors and girls are called?"

Yue Tong smiled: "It's my father." ”

It turned out to be really that Yue family.

Yue Xiaosheng is the first person among contemporary swordsmen, and he is from the royal family, which is indescribably expensive.

She took my hand and entered the pavilion. I couldn't force my hand out, so I had to follow in.

"Sit down." She pointed to the water boiling on the small stove next to her: "This is the snow that has just been picked from the plum blossoms, just for tea." ”

We've done things like this too. I got up early to collect dewdrops, but it doesn't snow much in Guanghua Mountain, so I didn't pick plum blossom snow.

"What kind of tea is this?"

"It's snow tea." Yue Tong said softly: "Although it is called snow tea, it is produced in the southern Xinjiang where snow never falls. Cooking with snow water is not interesting. ”

The thin snow-white tea leaves in the cup are like white chrysanthemum petals. A refreshing scent of grass leaves.

I've heard of snow tea, it's a tribute, ordinary people don't want to taste it, even if they can't see it.

I picked it up and smelled the tea, and under the table, Wu Zhen gently kicked me with his toes.

I knew she was reminding me not to drink this tea. These people are of unknown origin, and there may be something strange in the tea.

Yue Tong took a sip first, smiled at me and said, "Taste it." The taste of this snow water tea is different from that of drinking it on weekdays. ”

She smiled with clarity, as if she could see all the suspicions in me and Wu Zhen's hearts.

In fact, I also understand that if Yao Zisheng is here, he will make a move. There is no need for such a crude method as poisoning tea. The power of the Yao family is that they have mental calculations and unintentional, if you let you know how you are poisoned. That's a fall. Many more people don't know when they die that they've been poisoned, and certainly don't know how or what they do.

Qi Boxuan remained silent, and he didn't say anything except the beginning sentence.

But I don't dare to take this man lightly.

Qi Boxuan's method of calculating Tujiazhuang is obviously meticulous and ruthless, calling back and forth, where can he talk about being too anxious? If he is in a hurry......

But whether he is anxious or calculating, what does it have to do with us? A girl with the status of Yue Tong in front of her can't explain anything to two country girls like us.

There is a saying: Nothing to be courteous is either a traitor or a thief.

We can't do anything about it, what does this noble lady want us to do?

No matter how I think, she didn't have a reason to be so warm and attentive to us. I haven't seen Qi Boxuan face to face, and I don't know this Miss Yue.

Yue Tong smiled: "Although I didn't go to Tujiazhuang, I also know some ins and outs." Tujiazhuang was not originally surnamed Tu, and its name was Lianhua Villa. She pointed at Qi Boxuan: "My cousin is the younger generation of the owner of Lianhua Villa. Tu Anxiong deceived his heart and betrayed the master, and the dove occupied the magpie's nest, and my cousin was already merciful. ”

The reason is similar to what my father said, and it is clear which is right and which is wrong.

Wu Zhen couldn't help but say: "But Mrs. Tu, the owner of Tu Village, is already very old...... As soon as he died, the people of the Tu family lost their shelter again......"

Yue Tong was not angry, and said with a smile: "The family surnamed Tu has enjoyed wealth for many years, those that did not belong to them, they plotted and stole them, and they should return them to their original owners." ”

Wu Zhen was choked and turned his head sullenly.

Yue Tong is reasonable, while Wu Zhen argues from human feelings. But of course, this word is occupied by the other party, and Wu Zhen's reason is too untenable.

Yes, Mrs. Tu, Miss Tu San, they are pitiful. The owner of Tu Zhuang committed suicide, they had no support, and they were swept out of the house again......

But poor people also have something to hate.

They have lost a comfortable and wealthy life, but this comfortable and wealthy life does not belong to them in the first place. According to his father, the owner of Tu Zhuang was just a small guy at the beginning, what means did he use to seize Lianhua Villa, his father did not say it clearly, and Yue Tong did not say it, but he was only afraid that his hands would be stained with human life, and he must have done a lot of things that were not light, otherwise he would not have to commit suicide when Qi Boxuan came to the door.

If you do something wrong and take something that doesn't belong to you, you have to pay it back.

Yes, Qi Boxuan and Yue Tong are in charge.

But...... I always had a strong rejection of them in my heart.

These two people, one is decisive in his means, and the other is exquisite, even if everything they do is reasonable, they can't get close.

Yue Tong diverted the topic and pointed to the food box we brought: "What, haven't you had breakfast yet?" ”

"I wanted to come out to enjoy the morning plum, so I brought some snacks."

"Do the two witch girls live in the White Mansion? Is it the White Mansion of Fuxi Fang? ”

There is a white character engraved on the handle of the food box, and her observation is really nuanced.

I nodded, and she said, "I heard that the dim sum on the White Mansion is very exquisite, and I can't say it today, but I can taste it with the light of the witch girl." ”

She said so, Wu Zhen had no choice but to open the food box, which was divided into four compartments, and there were three plates of small snacks in the first compartment, one of which was a pale green five-petal shape, dotted with delicate early plum petals, exuding a sweet aroma.

"You don't need to eat this plum blossom cake, just smell it and it will smell tight."

Qi Boxuan said softly: "Senior Bai is so good and beautiful, and he is famous for his good food and wine, and he is famous in the capital. ”

I looked up and met his gaze.

There seemed to be some warmth and kindness in his eyes, but the whole person made people feel as calm and cold as the ice and snow outside, unattainable.

It's really strange how anyone can make people feel cold and hot at the same time? (To be continued)
