Chapter 15: Moonlight on the Roof
With that, I quickly ran to the side.
The sturdy woman was stunned for a moment, and then burst out with a lion's roar: "You disciple!" Dare to play with the old lady! ”
She lifted her arm and looked at the boy's face. It can be regarded as a young man's quick reaction, on the side of his body, he can avoid a slap, and said with a bitter face, "This eldest sister, this has nothing to do with Ben Shao, Ben Shao is in a hurry to go home, and ...... trouble"
"You disciple! Dare to quibble, I won't spare you today! The woman said that she was going to go again, and when the boy saw that the explanation was useless, he simply ran away, and the woman scolded and jumped after him, until he could hear the sound far away.
Hmph, let you mess with me!
Smiling slightly, holding my chest up and raising my head, I took the green bead back home with satisfaction.
When I returned to the house, it was almost unitary time.
The maid had already prepared dinner, two meat and two vegetables, plus a clear soup, and it was appetizing.
After eating, Lu Zhu brought the fried medicinal juice, and just after taking a sip of the cool blow, there was a shouting and scolding outside the courtyard. Listen carefully, it was Su Tianliu's voice, presumably she woke up and felt angry and ran to find fault.
After tossing for an afternoon, he was also tired, and he was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he ordered Wu Ding to watch the door and concentrate on drinking the decoction.
I rinsed my mouth and ate preserves, and it was already dark.
Su Tianliu, who was outside the hospital, didn't know when he had left, Xu is medicinal soup was effective in calming the nerves, but he was very sleepy, so he went back to his room to sleep after simply washing.
After sleeping for about two hours, I woke up shallowly, many familiar people and pictures were shaking in front of me, and my heart was irritable, so I put on a coat and sat at the stone table in the back of the courtyard, looking at the sky aimlessly.
I don't know how long I watched, I was a little thirsty, I saw that there was a tea cup on the table, so I poured a cup and drank it lightly, the tea soup had not been swallowed, I heard a chuckle next to me, a nice male voice laughed and said, "You can't sleep, wait for me here?" ”
"Why are you again!" I felt a sense of irritation in my heart.
The man hooked his lips and smiled, "You girl, you don't want to see me so much." I'm still thinking about you, I really don't have a conscience. ”
"What are you doing in my yard in the middle of the night!"
"Ha, you little girl is so strange, if you didn't come out in the middle of the night, how would you know that I came to your yard?"
My eyes were angry, and I was bumping into the man's smiling peach blossom eyes. The irritability was even better, and when he saw him leaning on the fork of the tree, he sarcastically said, "If you don't take a good road, the non-learning monkey goes up the tree in the middle of the night, and the current people are really strange." ”
He burst out laughing, changed his comfortable posture to look at the sky, and said softly, "Don't you think it's beautiful to look at the moon at this height?" ”
I took a sip of tea and hummed, "The roof is higher, and it will be more beautiful to see the moon, why don't you go to the roof." ”
He was silent for a moment, and then said very seriously, "Girl, I think what you said makes sense." ”
"Poof......" A mouthful of tea almost squirted out, and I had to take a closer look at him.
This person's IQ is really worrying......
I sat down, sipping my tea, and he wasn't talking. In the distance, there are bursts of cicadas chirping, and the moonlight is extremely quiet.
The noise in my heart gradually faded, and I thought of Ah Duo again.
After I leave, she should go to find Sister Lan.
There is no Oiran in the Red Pavilion, and business is very bad. At this time, if Ah Duo went to her and told her that he could make her more money, Sister Lan would naturally be moved.
There is more than a month, which is August 15.
Every festive season, the Red Mansion Youth Hall will hold some gatherings to select some talented and virtuous girls to serve as oirans.
The red card of the red house was ransomed, but if it was at this time, there were rumors that there was a new stunning beauty here, but she only sang and did not show up, which naturally aroused curiosity.
I asked her to sing only one song a day in the Red Pavilion until August 15, when she showed up in shame, which would definitely cause a small sensation. Even if you can't become an Oiran, it must not be difficult to become the top brand of the Red Mansion.
As long as she is obedient, don't be confused by the temptation of a daughter's daughter and a beauty, and expose her true face in advance.
In fact, there are other plans to put her in the Yin Red Mansion.
Looking at the appearance of the second lady today, it must not be the first time to go there.
I don't know if yesterday's assassin was really sent by her, but the fox will show its tail when it is hidden. An Yiyi's eyes are in the Red Mansion, so that she can easily find out her movements.
If Ah Duo succeeds in becoming a red card, I want her to develop some forces for me to use.
The Qinglou Red Pavilion is a good place to gather intelligence, although I am bent on revenge, but I am weak, but fortunately, this body is only nine years old, and there is still time to prepare.
Baili Tianqi seized the military power left by the emperor this time, it was high-spirited, the third prince of Dongmu has been eyeing him, and in order to be honest, he will be very quiet for the time being.
I'm going to hurry up and take care of my wings, and find a way to meet him when he's not quiet.
He wanted to be a goshawk, so I cut off his wings, and if he wanted to become a dragon in nine days, I gouged out his eyes.
Revenge is not just about talking.
It's just that some things still need time.
Today, it is only a small step on the road to revenge.
Road...... It's still a long one......
With a deep sigh, I took a sip of herbal tea and looked up at the sky.
The moonlight is hollow, and the sky is dark.
The man in the tree suddenly jumped down, spun around and sat down opposite, leaned closer to me and asked, "You...... Seems to like looking at the sky? ”
I calmed down a lot, knowing that he had no malicious intent, so I said lightly, "I like to look into the distance." ”
He chuckled and said, "Girl, are you really only nine years old?" I always feel like you're not like a kid when you're serious. ”
I'm not a nine-year-old in the first place, and I'm not a kid either.
Seeing that I was silent, he smiled again and asked, "Hey, didn't you say that the moon on the roof is beautiful?" Why don't I take you to the roof to see the moon? ”
Rooftop, midnight?
Are you kidding!
"If you don't speak, I'll assume that you agree." After that, I only felt my sleeves being tugged, and the next moment, the person was already standing on the roof.
He smiled back, a flash of moonlight in his peach blossom eyes, and took me a few jumps before stopping at a higher tower.
"What are you doing!" When I reacted, I don't know how far I would have left the General's Mansion early. I wanted to walk in annoyance, but when I moved a little, I felt my feet fluttering, so I had to stand motionless.
He sat down with a smile, took out an oiled paper bag out of nowhere, took a cyan bamboo pot from his waist and opened it, raised his head and poured it.
"Come here, sit here." He gestured to the place beside him. I looked around and I really couldn't get down. He took a few steps and sat down cautiously.
He bent his lips and smiled, opened the paper bag, pulled the largest goose leg from the roast goose and handed it over, "Here, Yongchang roast goose, only a hundred are sold every day, and I waited for three days to buy it." The taste is very special and delicious! ”
In the middle of the night, this person actually made me eat roast goose on the roof?
I glared at him.
He was stunned for a moment, and then nodded clearly, "I understand the girl, you must be too little, then this leg belongs to me, and the rest is for you." ”
Seeing that I was silent, a touch of complexity appeared on his face, and he pulled a small half of the meat from the goose leg in a tangled way, and then put the leg in the oil bag and put it in my hand together, "These are all for you, I want a little bit, is it okay?" ”
Seeing that I still didn't speak, he seemed to be even more entangled, "Girl, don't be too greedy, you have to leave me some, this can't be given to you anymore!" ”
Me: "......"
"Hahaha...... he suddenly smiled, and Peach Blossom's eyes were full of smiles, "That's right, is this the expression that a nine-year-old child should have." ”
After speaking, he raised his head and poured a sip of wine, put the goose leg meat in his hand in his mouth, and lay flat on his back.
The smell of meat emanated from the paper bag, and my stomach couldn't help but gurgle, so I simply picked up a goose leg.
He's right, it tastes good!
Xu was in a hurry to eat, I was a little choked, and when I saw his green bamboo pot next to me, I picked it up and took a sip.
I don't know what kind of wine it is, it tastes sweet, with an indescribable sweetness in the mouth, and it tastes like goose meat, and I can't help but take a few more sips.
He smiled slightly on the side, "This is purple carrot sake, it tastes good, but it has a lot of stamina, so you better drink two sips less." ”
I ignored it, eating goose and drinking at the same time. After a while, the paper bag was empty.
When he was full of wine and food, he handed over a handkerchief, and I wiped my mouth without even looking at it. After wiping it, he found that it was a brocade with small purple flowers embroidered on one side, so he sarcastically asked, "This is what you stole from the girl's boudoir in the middle of the night, right?" ”
He didn't reply, stared at the sky, and half-loudly, he said, "The moon is so beautiful today." ”
Looking in his direction, the waning moon is bent, the sky is dotted with stars, and as far as the eye can see, there are all the eaves and tiles below, and the front is open.
There was no one at midnight, and occasionally there was a faint croaking of frogs and cicadas, and there was a different kind of silence.
I suddenly felt tired, and I lay on the tiles like him, and the sky seemed to be right in front of me.
Looking at the moon from the rooftop, it was indeed beautiful.
He suddenly turned his face, his eyes bright, "Girl, what will you look like when you get fat?" ”
What the?
He hooked his lips and smiled, and looked at the moon again, "I heard that ten miles away, there is a Spring and Autumn duck that is particularly delicious, I don't know if it's true or not." ”
Xu drank too much wine, but I was faintly in a trance, and the crescent moon in the sky slowly dissipated, and I couldn't help but close my eyes.
In a daze, I seemed to hear a chuckle, and then seemed to lie on my broad back......
When I woke up again, I was lying in the boudoir, with Midori and the maid standing aside, wearing last night's coat and the short blade tied to my arm.
I was stunned for a long time after I got up, and finally I couldn't help but laugh at myself for being confused, and I actually ate roast goose on the roof of the house with a stranger in the middle of the night to watch the moon, and fell asleep......
got up and washed, wore a set of plain lotus skirts, pulled the flower buds, and brought a string of purple leaf beads.
I'm thin and small, and I don't look good when I dress up, but last night the third prince sent someone to spread the word that I would be admitted to the Blue Pavilion today. Naturally, I can't be too abrupt.
The rule of the Blue Pavilion is that you can only go home once every seven days, and Lu Zhu has already packed up her change of clothes, and I thought about it, so I still brought the broken little crossbow with me.
Out of the gate, the butler had already prepared the carriage, and Su Huo sat on his general's horse, apparently to personally send me to the school pavilion.
