Chapter 16: Cousin

The mountain road is winding, the peaks and mountains, indulging in the landscape, Ding Rou is comfortable, she is still Ding Rou, not the sixth lady who was exiled to Zhuangzi to fend for herself, Liu let Ding Rou support, Ding Rou pointed out the beautiful scenery from time to time, Liu couldn't see what Ding Rou said, felt that Ding Rou's words were cheerful, Liu smiled and nodded in agreement with Ding Rou said, Liu found that his daughter Ding Rou had read a lot of books, and the export was a chapter, and the master would be relieved to know.

"Mother, let's take a break?"

Ding Rou helped Liu to sit on the protruding stone, and then walked forward is a gazebo, their mother and daughter identity is not suitable to go to the pavilion, Ding Rou is mainly to relax, by the way to enjoy the scenery, cause trouble Ding Rou does not do, sit on the stone with a handkerchief, rub her legs, exercise is not enough, you feel tired after walking a short mountain road, Ding Rou asked: "Are you thirsty?" ”

Liu shook his head and nodded again, Ding Rou heard the crisp sound of a spring, and Lan Xin said, "Miss, the slave is going to get water?" ”

"I'll go, you accompany my mother here."

Lan Xin's sense of direction is not good, it is not Ding Rou who knows the way, they may get lost, let Lan Xin go to get water, Ding Rou is not at ease, take care of Liu's family, and then go to Lan Xin who may be lost, Ding Rou's energy is limited, she took the deerskin kettle from Lan Xin's hand, and drank all the flower tea she brought out, Ding Rou regretted bringing another kettle.

"Whether it's someone you know or someone you don't know, you can hide far away, and if someone finds fault, wait for me to come back." Ding Rou explained to the Liu family and Lan Xin that there were many people climbing the mountain, and Ding Rou really didn't worry about the Liu family.

"The slave is awake."

In addition to loving to get lost, Lan Xin is more shrewd than Liu's, this little kung fu can't be a big deal, Lan Xin's makeup is well disguised, Liu's temperament is soft, even if someone bullies her, Liu's will only back down, bullying people will feel bored, Ding Rou looked around, the big stone they rested on is not in the way, and there is shade to block it, few people will pay attention, Liu's Lanxin is safe, the ancients paid attention to etiquette and education, and the people who climbed the mountain during the Double Ninth Festival were official eunuchs, young masters, merchants, ordinary people, and scholars, The ancients are more face-saving than modern people, unless it is the son and brother who are extremely sloppy and will provoke right and wrong, and the famous and noble sons are afraid that they will discredit the family because of their misconduct, and they will have to be beaten when they go back.

Rao is thinking, Ding Rou's pace accelerated, not at ease is not at ease, Ding Rou is afraid that she has to think carefully, and it is difficult to keep an accident happening, secretly annoyed that she has no strength, Ding Rou squatted down and took water from the spring, and erected a wooden sign next to it, the name "Qingshui Spring" is very appropriate, Ding Rou saw this spring in front of her eyes, in addition to being clear, Ding Rou did not see any benefit, Ding Rou was willing to boil the water to make flower tea, in modern times she would never dare to drink spring water casually, there was no pollution in ancient times, and no one would drug the spring water, just now Ding Rou saw passers-by taking water to drink, Ding Rou was relieved.

When filled with spring water, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy walked over, wearing a new burgundy robe, a palm-wide belt, eyes like stars, a crown like jade, although he walked anxiously, but it did not damage his weak temperament, Ding Rou saw that he should be the son of a big family, the bookish atmosphere was very strong, Ding Rou avoided to the side, the young man Ding Rou couldn't be provoked, so it was better to get out of the way.

When the young man saw Ding Rou, he smiled elegantly: "This young lady, how about passing on a word through your mouth?" ”

Ding Rou saw someone behind the young man from a distance, Ding Rou didn't want to cause trouble, although the young man called Ding Rou Miss in his mouth, but the contemptuous look in his eyes, Ding Rou didn't like it, Ding Rou made a confused look, the young man was used to being sought after by the young ladies, the young lady in front of him didn't care, not crazy, the young man felt a little strange, "You can't understand my words?" ”

Ding Rou felt the contempt of the young man, was looked down upon, as a small people in the countryside, Ding Rou lowered his eyes, calculated in his heart, since this is the case, don't blame me, Ding Rou raised his eyes and pointed to the flat ears, and then pointed to his mouth, the young man suddenly realized, it turned out to be a deaf and dumb girl, the girl in front of her eyebrows and eyes were beautiful, clean, regretted that it was a dumb girl, the young man listened to the footsteps and entered, and hid in the bushes behind Ding Rou, the dumb girl couldn't hear the words, and couldn't ask if she wanted to ask his whereabouts.

Ding Rou's lips curled, I never said that I was a dumb girl, I was a dumb girl by referring to my ears and mouth, there is another explanation, Ding Rou raised her feet and left, who the young man was hiding, it was none of Ding Rou's business, the young man watched the dumb girl leave, so strange dumb girl.

A gorgeously dressed girl walked in front of her, followed by two girls, wearing a golden hairpin on her head, "Where are you hiding, where are you hiding?" Cousin, cousin, you're avoiding me again. ”

The delicate girl's thin anger, a little brutal willfulness, makes people feel sorry, just want to meet her requirements, Ding Rou heard the girl's coquettishness, cousin and cousin have a lover, look at the girl's dress, much better than Li Manru, who is a talented woman, has the temperament of everyone's lady, Ding Rou bowed her head and passed by the girl.

"You, that's you, stop." The girl grabbed Ding Rou, "Have you seen my cousin?" ”

The girl who is not very deep, at first glance, is raised in a deep boudoir mansion, and the girl was stunned when she saw Ding Rou, "Didn't you see my cousin?" ”

The little girl behind her said, "Miss, she is a passerby, how can she know Young Master Cousin?" ”

"yes, yes, how did I forget about this stubble?" The girl smiled sweetly with a hint of apology, "I'm asking if you've seen a young man?" In which direction did he go? ”

If the girl is arrogant and rude, Ding Rou will not talk much, but the girl in front of her is proud and does not hurt people, Ding Rou likes it, and points to the bush next to her, the girl's eyes burst out with joy, and she thanked Ding Rou with a smile, and went straight to the bushes, Ding Rou expressed sympathy for the girl behind the girl, it is hard to follow a naΓ―ve master, Ding Rou has no bad intentions, what if you meet a bad person? It's easy to be deceived when you see a bright girl.

"Cousin, I got you."

The young man got out of the bushes, looked helpless, looked at Ding Rou who was gradually moving away, and said secretly, can she understand without making a sound? Or is she just brushing herself at all?

"Cousin, what are you looking at?"

"Ah, nothing."

Since the boy was discovered, he comforted the girl, and after a while, the girl laughed again and again, the slightest tenderness in his eyes became more and more funny, and he was always very happy around his cousin, Ding Rou heard the girl's laughter, and turned his head, the girl who was in love was not a person, the boy was handsome and elegant, considerate and gentle to the girl, it seems that he was born well, the child of the family, he is afraid that he is gentle and considerate to all women, and can be called a messenger to protect flowers, the young man is easy to be emotional, and it is easy to be entangled by a woman and do not know how to refuse.
