Chapter Nine: Su Yan (Middle)
Later, in the days of Su Mansion, it was also very stable, Yu Yao became famous, and when she entered and exited the mansion, people would call her with a smile.
She is already young, and everyone in the Su Mansion treats her like their own children, and she is free to come and go. Although I still felt restrained in the early stage, after a month or two, I mingled with my subordinates. Today I will go to the stream to pick up stones and play, and tomorrow I will go to the field to catch butterflies.
That Su Yan has always treated his subordinates very well, even if Yu Yao was sometimes careless and did something wrong, he just whispered, "Be careful next time." He touched her head, and there was no too much reprimand. If she finishes her work, she can also go to the study to watch Su Yan write. If Su Yan is free, he will also teach her to read and play the piano.
In Yu Yao's impression, Su Yan seems to be omnipotent, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, nothing is difficult to defeat him. And every five days, Su Yan would go to the back mountain of Su Mansion, bringing only a piano and a stick of incense. Yu Yao also inquired about her mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law only said that Young Master Su was good at music theory, and he went to the back mountain to compose music.
Finally, Yu Yao still mustered up the courage, and when she saw that Su Yan was going to take the piano to the back mountain again, she hurriedly stopped her and begged Su Yan to take her there. Su Yan saw that she was persistent, but she couldn't resist it, so she nodded.
The back mountain of Sufu is the highest vein in the Longzhong Mountains, with lush vegetation and evergreen all year round. The most common is the ancient trees in the sky, which are lush and green. Sunlight leaked through the gaps in the leaves, and the stones on the ground shone with dazzling spots. Squirrels and rabbits can be seen everywhere, and they are not afraid of people, and if they bring food, they will even take the initiative to meet them.
Su Yan chose a larger stone and sat down, while Yu Yao was busy burning incense and repelling insects and setting up the guqin.
"I came to this back mountain, but to compose music and self-cultivation, if you feel bored, you can go to the bottom of the mountain to play." After speaking, Su Yan tried the tune of the strings, and then began to play the tune he had composed.
His slender ten fingers gently stroked the strings, and after contemplating and pondering, the sound of the piano sounded in vain in the mountains, the music was sometimes crisp and sometimes tactful, and the timbre was like a pool of clear water, clear and clear, like Su Yan.
Yu Yao closed her eyes and listened, the sound of the piano was melodious, and she hummed unconsciously. It was a song that Ning Qing once sang to her sweetheart, and the unexpected sound of the piano was harmonious, not only not abrupt, but had a unique charm.
"When it is not a sway, the sun and the moon in the cage depend on each other. The world is suitable for passing by, and the dust on all sides is not far away. The old tree has no branches and is empty, and I don't know where to return to Spring Mountain......"
At the end of the song, Yu Yao was still immersed in it, but was grabbed by Su Yan.
"Who taught you this tune?" Yu Yao looked at Su Yan, hurriedly shook off her hand, and retreated a few in a row.
"It was made by an old man of Yu Yao, and Yu Yao just secretly learned a few words......"
"Can you take me to see him, I have been deliberating about this score for more than a few months, but I still feel that something is wrong, but I can't say it. Today, when you sing like this, it wakes me up. I don't know where the master is? ”
Yu Yao touched the bracelet on her hand, and the ninja didn't let her voice fluctuate. "Dead."
"Huh?" Su Yan didn't hear clearly, and asked again.
"She's dead! She left me this bracelet! Push me down, and then you can ...... yourself" Yu Yao's tears couldn't be contained after all, and they burst out of her eyes. She doesn't cry often, it's just that she said to Ning Qing that she would be with her for a lifetime, but now yin and yang are separated, even if she has no heart and lungs, she is not sensible, but Ning Qing is a hidden disease that she doesn't want to touch, and she also knows that he won't understand and it is not appropriate to say this in front of Su Yan.
"It's all gone." was wiping her tears, Yu Yao had been taken into Su Yan's arms, this was the first time Su Yan had hugged her. Su Yan gently stroked her head, white clothes, plum fragrance, warm arms, and her mind once again overlapped the figures of Su Yan and Ning Qing, crying even more embarrassed.
Sometimes people who have to deny that they are strong on the outside are often so vulnerable on the inside, as long as they touch the softest corner, the defense line will collapse.
"Since this song makes you sad, I won't play it again in the future."
Time flies quickly, the first snow is gone, the weather is warmer again, and Yuyao has been working in Sufu for a year.
At the beginning, she thought that she was going to go on the road after saving enough money, but now that everything is going well in Su Mansion, she doesn't have to worry about being kicked out, so Yu Yao was a little shaken.
"Or, stay a few more days." Thinking like this, the days of leaving dragged on day after day, and later, the idea of leaving was directly thrown out of the clouds.
Although it was warmer, the wind was still blowing biting on days when there was no sun.
Yu Yao was originally in the Qinglou and had a lot of problems, and this chilblain is one of them, which repeats itself year after year, but it is not good.
On this day, Yu Yao was reading Su Yan's inscription in the study, and Su Yan suddenly asked, "Are the clothes enough to wear?" ”
"Huh? Enough, enough. That Yuyao was originally a little sleepy, and she was shaking her head, listening to Su Yan's sudden words, she was busy.
"Spring will start in a few days, so I'll take you to town to pick up a few beautiful things." Su Yan put down his pen, warmed his hands, and wrapped Yu Yao's little hands with chilblains, "By the way, let's see if there are any thick gloves." ”
Yu Yao hurriedly withdrew her hand and hid it in her sleeve, "Yu Yao doesn't want it, Yu Yao's clothes are enough to wear." ”
"Alright, obedient." Su Yan looked at the little person in front of him and smiled slightly, "By the way, go to the town and buy some items, my mother-in-law is old, so I can't let her go." ”
When Yu Yao heard this, she was still a little embarrassed. Su Mansion is located in the relatively remote countryside of Longzhong, inaccessible, so she can only go to the countryside to play on weekdays, but now she wants to go to the town, and it is not good to meet "acquaintances".
Su Yan seemed to see Yu Yao's uneasiness, and quipped, "What, I'm afraid of being abducted?" When you came here alone, I didn't ask what was going on. Now that you've been in my house for a year, if you were going to look for your relatives, you should have saved enough, so you can go to the town and inquire to see if you have relatives here......"
When Yu Yao heard this, her head suddenly emptied, and she fell directly from the stool like five thunderbolts, "Young master, don't rush Yu Yao, Yu Yao has no relatives, Yu Yao is not looking for relatives, Yu Yao is just ...... that day"
"Just what?"
“…… Flee from your enemies. ”
Su Yan laughed, "It's a joke at a young age, when you were only twelve years old, where did you come from?" I guess, the bastard who bullied you before? Or is it the fiercest dog in your neighborhood? ”
"Yes!" Yu Yao looked at him, "Yu Yao has an enemy, if it is discovered, they will arrest me, beat me and scold me, and ask me to go to ......"
Su Yan saw that she was serious, and she couldn't joke anymore, and touched her head, "Okay, I believe in you, but with me, no one will bully you anymore." ”
Finally, Yu Yao still went to the town with Su Yan, but she kept shrinking behind Su Yan, and Su Yan had no choice but to go with her. This trip has been fruitful, and seeing that the items purchased for the next year are almost complete, only Yuyao's new clothes are left.
"I don't know what the little girl likes to wear, so you can go in and see if you like it." Su Yan led Yu Yao to the shop that sold clothes. Yu Yao had never seen so many fabrics displayed in the room at the same time, she looked at the fabrics and ready-to-wear, and then at Su Yan.
"Young master, young master, can I really pick out my own clothes!"
"Why not?"
"Then I want this, it's got a bird on it!" Yu Yao picked up a horse beside her and rubbed it carefully.
"It's okay, the red one is festive." Su Yan beckoned the store to wrap up, and Yu Yao next to him was so happy that she almost didn't jump up. "Go back and let your mother-in-law help you cut, your mother-in-law's craftsmanship is very good, just tell her what style you want."
Yu Yao's little brain melon seeds were like rattles, and she was very happy.
Now that Su Yan is willing to buy new clothes for her, she always feels that she needs to return a decent gift, and Su Yan saved her from time to time and was kind enough to take her in, which does not mean that she feels that she can't get over it in her heart, and it seems that she is ungrateful.
But along the way, she thought about it carefully, and she didn't know what to buy, it was nothing more than hairpins, handkerchiefs, small clay figurines and the like, and she had no intention. Besides, she didn't know what Su Yan liked, Su Yan except for eating and sleeping, he was writing lyrics and practicing words and composing music, and occasionally chess friends came to meet him, or literati came to him to ask for Mobao. I don't have any special hobbies.
"What do you think?" Su Yan knocked on Yu Yao's little brain.
"No, nothing. It's windy, young master, let's go home. ”
Yu Yao didn't know why she said this, and she didn't even notice it herself.
By some point, she had a place to call home.
