CHAPTER XXXI
After washing up with hot water, I suddenly felt a lot more comfortable, changed into clean clothes, stood in front of the window, the raindrops fell on the window and clicked, it was late, and Ai'er had not come back.
Tonight, presumably the courtyard of Bai Xiaoqiu's house must be brightly lit, with laughter, singing and dancing, then tonight's Chu Lianwei must also be radiant, charming and infinite, heroes and beauties since ancient times, unconsciously smiling and muttering to himself, the peach is dying, scorching its glory. The son of the family should return to his room. Think about it, and read again, in the past, I was in the past, the willows were still around, and now I am thinking, the rain and snow are falling.
After reading it, my heart trembled slightly, maybe because of the rainy day, this situation actually made me feel a little melancholy, turned around and just sat down, looked at the window again, but saw fourteen young people standing in my courtyard in the rain. How could Fourteen Shao come so late, I didn't want to think about it too much, and hurriedly ran out and pulled him into the house, and exclaimed, "Fourteen Shao, why are you standing in the courtyard and come in quickly."
Fourteen young standing in front of me, raindrops from the roots of his hair down to the ground, I hurriedly pulled out a silk handkerchief to wipe the rain on his face, and asked him with concern, "Fourteen young man, what is wrong with you."
Fourteen Shao looked at me steadily, and suddenly grasped my hand, as if he was in a bad mood and drank some wine, his breath was so strong, so strong that it made me daunting, and made my heart beat wildly.
I broke free with all my might, left the silk handkerchief in his hand, and shouted at him with a little resentment in my heart, "Fourteen Shao, what are you doing", and even turned my face away from him.
Fourteen young people wanted to wipe the rain off my face for me, I took a few steps back, and said sharply, "Fourteen young people, men and women can't stand it, don't go any further, just Feifei has lost his sense of proportion in front of the fourteen young people, and I hope that the fourteen young people will clean themselves."
Fourteen Shao Hula threw away the silk handkerchief in his hand, glared at me with an iron face, and yelled at me, "Why, why are you so cold to me, why can't you treat me like other major generals, you can play the piano with Nineteen, chant poems and paint, you can play with Seventeen, laugh heartily, you can drink with Eleven until midnight and don't return, and even fight for Twelve and Chu Lianwei, but you just turn away everything I do to you, you avoid me, dodge me, and try not to meet me." , is it in your eyes that I am so unpopular, you say, what did I do wrong, you say, you say".
I was stunned by the sudden bombardment of the fourteen young man, I didn't know why he lost such a big temper, I just stared at him with a pair of eyes, and only said after a while, "Fourteen young man, I, you。。。。。。 ”。
Fourteen Shao looked at me coldly and said, "How about it, I was right, I have nothing to say, right?"
I said earnestly, "No, I didn't want to avoid you, it's really that I'm busy with the affairs of the academy during this time."
Fourteen Shao sneered, "Since you are so busy, how can you still have leisure and elegance, and you can be alone with Eleven and hug each other in the rain."
I don't have a good heart, I'm just afraid that Fourteen will have a misunderstanding, but I don't want to explain more, and I just said, "Maybe you won't believe it, it's just a coincidence."
The fourteenth young man looked at the table and sneered again, and said, "Now you are even so perfunctory to lie to me, even if it is a coincidence, what about Jun'er, who doesn't know that the academy has long since run out of students, and the twelfth will send Jun'er over, he has good intentions for you, you won't even be able to see this."
I muttered, "Fourteen Shao, you misunderstood me."
Fourteen Shao took a few quick steps forward and pulled me into his arms, and I trembled violently, trying my best to break free from his embrace.
He asked, "You're scared of me."
I shook my head again and again, but I was scared to death, and I didn't know what to do.
"Why, why did you look at me with an affectionate look from the beginning, your smile was so tender and tender, from the first time we met in the back mountain, you looked at me with such a different look, you were careful with me everywhere, you respected me, you cared about me but you were polite, when I thought you had begun to like me, you kicked me away mercilessly, and turned to other men, you made me almost crazy." Fourteen young people once again embraced me into his arms, his arms around me tightly, and this time no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break free.
He said, "You said I misunderstood you, you said you weren't afraid of me, prove it to me." When he finished, he pressed his lips to mine, he was so eager, his soft and lubricated tongue wrapped around me tightly, caught me off guard, my heart pounded, and made me feel suffocated and dizzy. At this time, did Bai Xiaoqiu also hold Chu Lianwei in her arms, doing the same thing as the fourteenth youth, her heart was sour, and tears flowed down involuntarily, sobbing slightly.
Fourteen Shao stopped suddenly, looked at me with tears streaming down his face, panicked for a moment, he gently brushed away the tears on my face, and asked softly, "Why are you crying, I bullied you and offended you, right?"
I just convulsed and wept and wept without replying to him, and the more I cried, the more miserable I became, and I threw myself into his arms and cried.
It rained for seven or eight days, and as soon as the day cleared, it began to heat up, and I sat alone under the banana tree in the corner of the courtyard wall to enjoy the shade, looking aimlessly into the distance with a pair of eyes, which seemed to be very calm on the surface, but restless inside.
I've been wondering these days, is Fourteen serious about treating me, the words he said to me, the kisses he gave me on the lips, the gadgets he gave me, are these true? The Fourteenth Shaocheng Mansion is very deep, and he is the most unpredictable one among all the major generals, if I am really suitable for him, do I really like him, or am I only grateful to him, he helped me in my most difficult moments, so that I have different feelings for him and other major generals from the beginning, I don't know.
I saw Rourou coming towards me from afar, I haven't seen it for some days, and I haven't seen it for a few days, and I heard the people in the house say that during this time, Rourou and Bai Yanleng nested in the room all day long to play chess, and I have always loved birds like life. Also, with a beautiful woman by her side, where can you still manage the bird.
Rourou's whole person looks like a spring breeze, full of energy, the kind of joy and happiness that emanates from the inside out, so that a person with a sad face can't help but feel happy immediately.
I smiled and said, "It is said that people are in good spirits when they are happy, and it seems that Rourou has been living a very comfortable life recently."
Rourou smiled at me shyly, two blush floated on her cheeks, and said, "Mr. laughs at me, how can I compare to Mr. Being spoiled and protected by the people of the entire White Mansion."
I also smiled and said, "I am spoiled by the people of the entire White Mansion, I know that I don't have that ability." Chao Rourou swept around and asked, "Nineteen Shao, why didn't I come with you?"
Jujudo: "Nineteen young people went to Luoyang City".
I asked "what is he doing in Luoyang City".
Jujudo "Go buy birds".
I asked again, "Aren't there two birds in his house?"
I was fine just now, but I suddenly lost my smile when I asked, and sighed softly and said, "If you don't say it, don't worry, you will get angry when you say it, sir, you don't know."
I raised my eyebrows and asked, "What happened to you yesterday, you quarreled?"
Rourou Shun copied a chair and sat next to me, and said, "It's not just a quarrel, I almost started a fight, I didn't expect that the temper of the nineteen young people is really stubborn, to the point that it is unreasonable."
I quipped, "What the hell is going on, you can tell me well, and let me know how unreasonable the nineteen young man is in private."
Rourou said to me indignantly, "It's not because of those two nasty birds, chirping at the window all day long, and the nineteen young people ignore it, and they don't care, let them." Personally feed the birds every day, carefully serve, he spends more time with the birds than with me all day long, at first I also followed him to take care of the birds, and then gradually got bored, I now heard the birds' calls, the sweat all over the body exploded, I asked him to let the birds go, let them go wherever they wanted, but nineteen young just didn't listen. Yesterday while he was not at home, I secretly let the birds in the cage go, at that time I was still lucky, I felt that the left and right were just two birds, no one is gone, who knows that the nineteen young do not forgive, and I fight, accidentally I cut a handkerchief, who would have thought that the handkerchief was the relic of the lady, this time I had a big disaster, nineteen young yesterday ignored me, this morning the house of the spring said that he went to Luoyang City.
My heart sank, I was gentle and thoughtful on weekdays, and I knew how to measure things, but I didn't expect such a fork to happen, and it broke the relics of Nineteen Shao and his mother, which is called how can Nineteen Shao endure it. It is said that among their people, the young woman who has not been out of the cabinet has to sew a handkerchief by her mother herself from birth, and she must not show her true face every day, and she will not take it off until the day of marriage.
Looking at Rourou's anxious look, I said, "What are you going to do?"
"Today I came to Mr. for this matter, I hope Mr. can help me come up with an idea."
I glanced at Rourou and said, "If there is something else that can be dealt with, but it is the relic of Old Madam Qiu, you cut her relic is undoubtedly a stab in the heart of the nineteenth young man, it is not trivial, you have caused your own trouble, what can I do."
Rourou put her hands on my lap and shook it, and said coquettishly, "I know that Mr. and Nineteen Shao have always been good friends, in this house, except for Twelve Shao, Nineteen Shao is the most obedient to Mr., Mr. might as well help me say good things for me in front of Nineteen Shao, and let him forgive me for my mistakes."
I was embarrassed and said, "I'm afraid this won't work."
Rourou pouted angrily, and said unhappily, "So Mr. won't help me." Say goodbye and don't look at me.
I thought about it for a moment and said to Jujudo, "Where is that handkerchief now?"
"I brought it, sir, look". Rourou took out a piece of cloth from her arms and opened it, wrapped in a piece of silk, with a soft and silky texture.
I took the handkerchief and looked at it carefully, and then held it up in mid-air to shine a light in the sun, and suddenly I had an idea in my heart, and asked Rourou with a smile, "Do you know how to make stitches?"
Rourou shook her head at me and said, "The two things I didn't know about in my life were cooking rice and the other being cloth needle threads.
I smiled and looked at Rourou, "You wait here for me for a while, I'll come when I go."
Mrs. Mu was virtuous and virtuous in the end, and after a while, she embroidered a swallow on her facecloth, and the swallow stretched out its arms, lifelike, as if it was about to fly, which was really beautiful.
When Mrs. Mu handed me the handkerchief, I saw a sad look on her face, and I said softly, "Madame, isn't she still worried about Miss Qingrui's marriage."
Mrs. Mu's eyes were gloomy, and she said, "It's not, seeing that she is so old, what qualifications do girls have to pick and choose when they are older, I used to think that she was young, and she was twenty years old in a blink of an eye, and I blamed me, I was too used to her, she was not by my side since she was a child, I always felt that I owed her, let her mess around, now that I am older, the marriage has not yet been settled, how can I not worry."
I comforted Mrs. Mu and said, "Madame, don't worry, Qingrui is smart and well-behaved, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a good person, maybe fate has not arrived, and fate can't stop it."
Mrs. Mu lamented and said, "Now I can only think like this." Mrs. Mu looked at me and asked, "By the way, you are the same age as Qingrui, and I have long regarded you as my daughter in my heart." How about the marriage matter, according to me, my nineteenth brother is very good, you used to be young, but now you are all grown, the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, if the gentleman agrees to this family matter, I will go and tell the nineteenth brother, it is better to do your business as soon as possible, but good."
I bounced up from the chair in shock, and said continuously, "Madam, I'm afraid this matter is inappropriate, Nineteen Shao is talented, a talent, I'm just afraid that I Su Feifei is blessed, not to mention that I am not suitable for Nineteen Shao, he is two years younger than me, no, no, I don't agree." Without waiting for Mrs. Mu to respond, I picked up my handkerchief and fled.
Speaking of this academy, when the house was renovated, the general separated the courtyard from the center and divided it into two, one side was my bedroom and Ai'er's bedroom and a few home remedies, and the other side was used as a academy, and the whole academy was still in my house.
Whenever I teach Jun'er to read and paint in the house, Bai Xiaoqiu sits on the chair next to him and watches, how long Jun'er learns, how long he watches, sometimes he will move the small round table in my room to the shade, lean on my recliner and read a book leisurely, just wait for Jun'er to finish learning and then go back together.
Last night, the mosquitoes that flew from nowhere, buzzed in my ears, disturbed me so uneasy, turned over and got up and whirled around with the mosquito for half a night, until I saw it under my palm, I fell asleep with peace of mind, I didn't expect to oversleep this sleep, until the next day at four o'clock woke up.
In the scorching summer, there is a long wind blowing over, it is really pleasant, I can't help but turn sideways and open my eyes, either I am wrong, or I am dazzled. But when I saw Bai Xiaoqiu sitting in front of my bed, holding a pu fan in one hand to fan me, holding a teacup in the other, drinking tea with relish, when I saw him, he happened to be puffing out his cow-like eyes and looking at me without blinking.
I sat up from the bed in shock, with a messy head of hair, very embarrassed, and called him "Twelve young is good".
Bai Xiaoqiu coughed lightly and said with a light smile, "Mr. has finally woken up."
My face was hot, and I finally woke up, as if I often woke up late. In my memory, there are not many days when I can sleep until four quarters of the hour, except for being sick and injured, this is the first time, why was he bumped into it, and besides, he is still fanning me, what is going on.
Pointing to the pu fan in his hand, he said embarrassedly, "Thank you Twelve Young Men for fanning me, it's not hot anymore."
Bai Xiaoqiu smiled faintly, put down the pu fan naturally, and said, "I just saw that Mr. was sweating, and it looks fine now." lowered his eyebrows, pulled his neckline, and suddenly said, "It's really hot this weather."
I didn't see it, there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and he hurriedly picked up the pu fan and fanned it towards him, he waved his hand and said, "How dare you bother Mr."
Looking at Bai Xiaoqiu, I couldn't help but sigh three times in my heart, when did we become so polite between us.
I grinned at him without smiling, and when I saw the shirt on the chair stretched out but couldn't reach it, Bai Xiaoqiu pursed my lips and smiled, and without saying a word, I got up and brought the shirt and handed it to me.
He put on his clothes, jumped out of bed, and freshened up, everything was so fast, just to go to the academy as soon as possible, so that Bai Xiaoqiu would have no reason to stay in my room anymore.
Just as everything was picked up and ready to go out, Bai Xiaoqiu stopped me behind me, "Jun'er and Shaoyuan are very well-behaved, they are both writing in the academy, Mr. can rest assured, eat this crispy longan cake and then leave, if you are hungry, who will teach my Jun'er to read and write." After finishing speaking, he put the bamboo basket behind him on the table, and brought out two plates of pastries from the bamboo basket, one of which was a crispy longan cake, and the other plate I also recognized, it was the jade celery shrimp dumpling king, and the plum blossom cake.
Once upon a time, longan cake was my favorite food, and in the past few years in Baifu, I have never eaten it, and it is a unique food in my hometown of Jizhou. When I first came to Luoyang City, my mother prepared a basket full of baskets for me to eat slowly.
I forgot about the food for a while, I only looked at Bai Xiaoqiu fixedly, and I couldn't say a word of excitement, looking at these old delicacies, it was like seeing my mother.
Bai Xiaoqiu said lightly, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and taste it, this is what I brought from Jizhou a few days ago, I have long heard that this crispy longan cake is very famous in Jizhou, and you happen to be from Jizhou, I must have heard of it, Mr. has accepted my family Jun'er as a student of the academy, I should be grateful, be careful, and hope that Mr. can like it."
Seeing that the food in front of him couldn't care about anything, and he didn't know if what Bai Xiaoqiu said was true or false, so he hurriedly copied a piece to eat. Sure enough, it's the taste of home.
