Chapter 79: Love on a Rainy Night

Lin Yuelan put away the envelope that had been approved, put down the pen, and the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, "Ruo'er, I've kept you waiting." Then stretched out his somewhat stiff body, ready to listen to Mo Xiruo's words, and looked at her with long and deep eyes, "What are you going to say to me?" ”

Mo Xiruo held back for more than half an hour, and as soon as the conversation box was opened, she happily chatted about a lot of stories that were not her childhood, or the things between Situ Nanyun and Xu Xifeng, and finally looked at him with a resentful face, "Brother Lan, you see how much love Brother Xifeng and Yun'er have, the two of them are in pairs, the two practice swords together during the day, and go to the street together at night, I really envy them." Brother Lan, you are always busy and don't have time to accompany me, if only you were as good as Brother Xifeng to Yun'er. ”

Lin Yuelan originally listened to Mo Xiruo's narration while flipping through the book, at this time, her fingers stopped on the book and did not move, her face was a little bad, but this was not good for a moment, looking at Mo Xiruo's eyes that were like smoke and mist at him, and paused, "Okay Ruo'er, don't complain, I'll blow you a tune." ”

He picked up a jade flute on the table, and tapped his slender fingers on the jade flute, so that a fresh and slightly sad song flowed out.

"Brother Lan, this song is so good, it sounds very kind and familiar." Mo Xiruo's face was intoxicated.

"Familiar?" Lin Yuelan's eyes perked up at this time.

"yes, it sounds like a nursery rhyme sung by my mother when I was a child." Mo Xiruo saw the look in his eyes and explained happily.

"This is a tune that my mother used to hum to me when I was a child, and it is indeed a children's song," Lin Yuelan's eyes were a little gloomy, "I thought you had heard it, probably because most of the tunes of the children's songs are close, so you will have a sense of familiarity." ”

"Well, when I was a child, I liked to listen to my mother's humming ballad the most," Mo Xiruo was immersed in the good memories and couldn't help humming, "'The stars are shining, the moon is bending, the fragrance of acacia flowers in the courtyard is floating over the east wall and flying on the beam; Knowing the joy, the finches are annoying, and the fireflies are busy carrying lanterns, sneaking around the grass and into the house. When I was a child, I couldn't sleep well, and I could sleep peacefully when I listened to my mother's humming, alas......" she sighed, "and now I miss my mother." ”

Lin Yuelan was a little moved when she heard this, and the lines on her face were very soft, "Yes, I miss my mother too, and she also hummed this song before I fell asleep." She was a beautiful and gentle woman, but unfortunately she died when I was five years old...... When I think of my mother, I blow this tune. ”

"Brother Lan, I didn't expect you to have a sad childhood, my mother also passed away when I was very young, and my father was not very good to me, he later married his stepmother and had other children, so it was even worse for me." Thinking of the past, Mo Xiruo was a little sad, and there was a layer of mist in his clear eyes, which was pitiful.

Lin Yuelan stroked her head and comforted, "Ruo'er, don't think about it, it's all over." Your mother is watching you from heaven and wants you to be happy. ”

"Brother Lan, you are so good, thank you, can you play another tune for me? I love to hear it. Mo Xiruo unconsciously snuggled into Lin Yuelan's arms and smiled toothily.

Lin Yuelan nodded dotingly.

When he returned to the courtyard, Situ Nanyun happened to hear Lin Yuelan's familiar flute, and his thoughts were lingering for a while, and the scene of his first acquaintance with Lin Yuelan came to mind, and he couldn't move his steps, standing in the middle of the courtyard in a daze.

"Yun'er, let's go, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, don't get wet." Xu Xifeng covered Situ Nanyun's head with his sleeve, and pulled her to leave.

"Xifeng, you go back first, I want to stay in this courtyard for a while, don't worry, such a little rain won't make me cold." Situ Nanyun pushed Xu Xifeng's hand away, and her attitude was a little different from the previous insistence.

"Okay then, you wait for me a while, I'll go get an umbrella." Xu Xifeng turned around and left after speaking.

Situ Nanyun walked towards Lin Yuelan's study.

In the study, the light was scorching, through the oil-paper window, shining on the ground one meter away from the window, Lin Yuelan and Mo Xiruo's laughter was clearly transmitted through the study, the atmosphere inside was extremely harmonious at this time, Situ Nanyun was stunned, so she stopped her steps, standing under the dark locust tree a few meters away from the study, the drizzle fell on the leaves of the locust tree, the leaves could not bear the weight of the raindrops, and when the wind blew, it was slightly tilted, and the scattered raindrops fell on her body.

I don't know how long it took, the door of the study "creaked" open, and two beautiful figures, one red and one white, appeared at the door, which looked particularly eye-catching in the night.

"Then, I'll go back and rest, Brother Lan, you should rest early." A sweet and glutinous voice came out of Mo Xiruo's mouth.

The corners of Lin Yuelan's mouth hooked up a good-looking arc and nodded.

Because the light in the courtyard was dim and there were branches to block it, Lin Yuelan didn't find Situ Nanyun standing more than ten steps away from him. However, Mo Xiruo was standing in front of Situ Nanyun, and he saw her in a blink of an eye, and beckoned, "It turns out that Brother Xifeng and Yun'er are also there, you are really good Yaxing, walking in the rain." ”

Situ Nanyun looked back in shock, only to find that Xu Xifeng was standing behind her, holding an umbrella for her, I don't know how long she had been standing, she was immersed in her own world, forgetting her surroundings.

Lin Yuelan turned her head, her eyes stayed on Situ Nanyun for a while, and she walked over, her face couldn't see her emotions, and her voice was a little unhappy, "Brother Xifeng, it's really not a good weather for a walk at night, so you better take Yun'er back to the house, so as not to catch a cold." ”

Xu Xifeng nodded with a smile.

Situ Nanyun was there, opened the corners of her mouth a little stiff, and was just about to explain that she heard his flute and came over, and it had nothing to do with Xu Xifeng, so she was pulled away by a strong arm, "Yun'er, no matter how good the scenery is at night, you can't let yourself catch a cold, let's go." ”

Xu Xifeng held an umbrella, protected Situ Nanyun in his arms, and walked towards her room.

Looking at their backs and leaving, unlike Mo Xiruo's eyes, a trace of almost imperceptible loss flashed in Lin Yuelan's eyes.

In the next few days, Situ Nanyun continued to practice swordsmanship as always. At the end of one day of sword practice, Mo Chunhua asked her privately why she hadn't seen Lin Yuelan's figure for a few days, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled helplessly, "I haven't seen him for a few days." ”

It was Situ Nanyun's turn to cook at noon today, she ran to the stove room early to cook and made a table of meals, Lin Yuelan didn't come back at noon, Mo Xiruo left a meal for Lin Yuelan, and prepared to send it to his study when he came back.

Situ Nanyun looked at Mo Xiruo's movements, and felt a little jealous in her heart, now that this serving of food has become Mo Xiruo's job, and now there are fewer and fewer opportunities to see that busy person, but people are the ones he likes, how can she be embarrassed to rob men with others.

She finished her meal unhappily, practiced swords in the afternoon, and had more time, so she sat bored on the railing in the yard, looking at the sky in a daze, and the "white hair" in her hand did not know how many times she had played with it in her hands.

"Yun'er, what are you thinking?" Mo Xiruo ran over and saw something white in her hand, "Hey, what's in your hand?" Let me see. Mo Xiruo had a childish heart, and without waiting for Situ Nanyun to react, she snatched the "white hair" and held it in her hand.

"Hey, Mo Xiruo, you give it back to me." After a while, Situ Nanyun found that Bai Mao'er had been snatched away, and hurriedly shouted out.

Mo Xiruo had already run away, laughing as she ran, "Yun'er, lend me a look, don't be stingy." ”

Situ Nanyun chased for a while and didn't recover it, so she didn't want to lose the reputation of a small family, so she went. Mo Xiruo dragged Bai Mao'er forward, and unexpectedly bumped into a hard embrace, "Ouch", rubbed his aching forehead, and was about to blame which daredevil, who didn't have long eyes, when he bumped into her, he raised his eyes and saw that it was Qingfeng, "It turned out to be you, Brother Qingfeng." Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a white shadow standing next to Qingfeng, and smiled happily: "Brother Lan, you're back." ”

Lin Yuelan nodded, and saw Mo Xiruo holding a familiar object in his hand, "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

Mo Xiruo smiled and spread out his hand, "Oh, this is a little monkey I took from Yun'er, and I don't know what this little thing looks like, Yun'er has been holding it in her hand for a long time." ”

Of course, Lin Yuelan is very familiar with this "white hair", that night in Liuye Town, he happened to see an old man on the street buying all kinds of small pendants, he saw such a jade monkey with a tuft of white hair on his head, so he bought it, and planned to give it to Situ Nanyun. Later, when I saw the scene of Situ Nanyun and Xu Xifeng hugging each other, I was distraught, this little thing fell out of nowhere, and I never found it again. At this time, when he saw Bai Mao'er again, a trace of joy appeared in his eyes, which was supposed to be given to Situ Nanyun, but he thought it was gone, but he didn't expect it to be in her hands.

"Ruo'er, give it to me."

Mo Xiruo saw a flash of brilliance in Lin Yuelan's eyes, and was very curious that Lin Yuelan was actually interested in this ordinary little object, and her blue brows furrowed incomprehensibly, "Brother Lan, do you like this too?" I'll ask Yun'er where I can buy it, will I give you one? You can't take this, it's Yun'er's. ”

Lin Yuelan smiled, "Just look at it, why are you so stubborn, and you won't be able to return it to Yun'er then." ”

So Bai Maoer returned to Lin Yuelan's hands.

When Mo Xiruo told Situ Nanyun, she thought that Bai Mao'er had picked it up anyway, but it just happened to be her interest, Lin Yuelan would take it if she wanted to, but she was a little curious why he kept this, did he also like Bai Mao'er?
