091 Wind and vinegar
Bitong has never been on an equal footing with her master, and she is still so close, she was busy struggling to stand up, but she was held down by Cheng Xueyan.
"What's the panic, sit well, let's talk......
Cheng Xueyan said, lying on the ground.
The grass is so soft and thick, like a good carpet, and it is cool, driving away the heat of early autumn. She sighed contentedly and closed her eyes comfortably.
The girl seems to be a little ...... like this Indecent, Bitong wrinkled her nose, but ...... She carefully arranged her skirt and lay down gently next to the girl.
…… It was so comfortable!
She squinted her eyes and looked at the layers of branches and leaves above her head, smelling the faint aroma of grass leaves...... Seem...... It seems that I used to be so comfortable when I was very young.
She also closed her eyes and gently hummed a song she had heard as a child.
"I am, the lotus girl, and I haven't complained of tears like rain. If you see lotus tears, can you know how bitter the lotus is? I am, the Lotus Girl, but I just made a promise with you. Sing for you tonight, every sentence is a sad song......"
Cheng Xueyan opened her eyes: "What song is this?" ”
Bi Tong shook her head: "It's the little mother who taught me to sing......"
Cheng Xueyan tilted her body: "Why have I never heard you mention your family?" ”
Bitong's eyelashes twitched, and she opened her eyes slightly, but she looked at the wisteria swing.
"Does the girl remember the story of the epiphany told by Mr. Dai? When I was very young, my mother also told me the story of wisteria flowers. Once upon a time, there was a beautiful girl who prayed to Elder Moon for a marriage. Yue Lao gave her a dream, saying that when spring came, she would meet a man in white in the grove in the back mountain, and he was her love. The girl waited until the spring flowers bloomed, and really came to the back mountain grove alone. But until it was almost dark, I didn't see any man in white, but I was bitten by a snake in the grass and couldn't walk. It was getting darker, and she was terrified. But at this moment, a man in white appeared, stepped forward and helped her suck out the poisonous blood with his mouth. The girl thought to herself that Yue Lao really didn't lie to her. However, the man in white came from a poor family, and their marriage was opposed by the girl's parents, and they both jumped off the cliff and died in the end. But in the second year, a tree grew on the edge of the cliff where they were loved, and a vine was wrapped around it, and every spring it bloomed in clusters of flowers, purple and blue, as bright as clouds. Later generations called it wisteria flowers. Wisteria flowers need to be entangled in trees to grow, and they cannot survive alone. Some people say that the wisteria is the embodiment of the girl, and the tree is the embodiment of the man in white......"
Cheng Xueyan looked at the wisteria: "Why are the stories of flowers so poignant?" ”
Bi Tong's expression was gloomy: "I used to only tell a story as a mother, but later, I ...... Mother jumped off the cliff with a man I had never seen before, I was only five years old at the time, naively thought that wisteria flowers would grow on the edge of the cliff, but waited, waited, waited for my father to say that I was not his own child, to sell me into the green building, fortunately Cheng Fu was choosing a maid, and my father sold the death deed in order to make a few more money......"
"I'm sorry to bring up your sad ......"
Bi Tong smiled sympathetically: "What is sad or not, so many years have passed, I can't even remember what my mother looks like, and the most excessive thing is that I don't even remember her death day, I only remember that it was autumn......"
There was a long silence, only the leaves squirming, the sound of grass shallow, and occasionally small insects jumping on people's faces. The wind blew from moment to time, stirring the branches and leaves, and the sun was exposed, stinging people's eyes.
Cheng Xueyan turned her face slightly and looked at a small grasshopper on a blade of grass. The little grasshopper was so lovely green that it only stared at her with round eyes, and its two tentacles swayed thoughtfully. It's still so small, but winter is coming......
"Girl, girl......" Bi Tong whispered in her ear, tugging at her sleeve.
She opened her eyes in a daze, only to realize that she had fallen asleep at some point.
"Girl, listen ......"
She pricked up her ears......
A high-pitched voice drifted through the blades of grass, sounding as if it were at the edge of the forest.
“…… What is she? How dare you make irresponsible remarks about me? ”
The voice...... It seems to be Du Yingzi! The "she" in the words shouldn't refer to herself, right? It's possible, because who else but himself can make Mr. Du so furious? I was stimulated by her just now......
She immediately rolled over and sat up, but was held down by Bitong. The two exchanged glances, crept a few steps there, and hid behind a tree.
"It is said that the jade fox's eyes are above the top, but I think he is blind, so he went to find her......"
This must be his own! It looks very angry, is it to blame the jade fox for not going to her? Jade fox, how much peach blossom debt do you owe?
"Why should grandma be angry with such people? She has long been famous, alas, who makes the family beautiful? ”
This voice is a little unfamiliar, who is it?
Bitong whispered in her ear: "Zhen'er ......"
Zhen'er ...... Du Yingzi's personal girl. A woman with thin eyes immediately appeared in front of her, with a white face like her master on weekdays, her waist was extremely thin, and she walked deliberately twisting, except for Du Mizhen and the people around her, she didn't talk to anyone, for fear of losing her identity.
It's strange to say, the girls in this Cheng Mansion are more or less similar to the master, sometimes even if you don't know which room she is in, but as long as you listen to her say a few words or look at the expression on her face, you can easily guess, is it really close to Zhu and red and black to ink?
"There's a fart reputation!"
Du Yingzi pulled out a high note.
Cheng Xueyan even threw out the "fart" when she heard it, which shows that she is really angry. This will be fine, there are no outsiders, no need to scruples, Coco can vent vigorously, and she waited with great interest to listen to the following.
"I don't know how long your eyes are, but she is good-looking, in my opinion, she can't even compare to my Yixue. Thin as a needle, he looks like an unblessed person, his face is as white as a dead man, his face is the size of a mustard seed and has eyes the size of a walnut, and he has sharp-beaked monkey gills, does he still look like a human? ”
Cheng Xueyan compared, well, it is indeed not human.
"It's like my Yixue, I want to look good, I want to have a figure, and I want to be a beautiful embryo alive. When I was a child, I always dreamed of things in the sky, and the fortune tellers said that she was a fairy descending to earth, how could she compare? ”
Cheng Xueyan wondered, I didn't compare with anyone......
"Isn't it? Our girls have been getting better and better in recent years, even if they are in the palace, they are not inferior to those girls! ”
Zhen'er hurriedly spoke, the voice was the same as her master, if she hadn't seen her gesturing there, she would have thought that Du Mizhen was talking to herself.
"Isn't it? This blue is better than blue, I was the first beauty of Canghan back then, and the number of people who came to my house to ask for marriage is countless, just the jade fox, isn't it every day under my window, and hiding in the tree to see me? I begged to open the door several times, but I didn't! ”
Du Yingzi is twenty-nine this year, if you talk about "that year", ...... It should be seventeen or eighteen, and the jade fox himself is not unseen, it seems to be only in his early twenties, according to Du Yingzi...... Oh my God, this jade fox is too precocious......
"Isn't it?" Zhen'er immediately echoed: "Grandma just got married early, and thanks to this, otherwise the suitor will crowd the house......"
"It's all in the past, and I don't even bother to think about it now. A real beauty must know how to keep her down, how can she be like her, swaggering everywhere, and she will not stop when she is rested, and she called the jade fox to come, not to let others know that she is as beautiful as a fairy, even if it is a broken flower and a willow, it is rare, she thinks that this will raise her value? She snorted contemptuously, and suddenly changed the subject: "Hey...... Did you say that man was really a jade fox last night? ”
Cheng Xueyan kind of understands why Du Yingzi hates herself so much, but she is also an old person, and jealousy is a child's trick.
"Who knows? Anyway, everyone is saying that it is the jade fox. Hey, in fact, grandma just didn't expect that the jade fox was being chased tightly at that time, and she went to her in a panic, according to his relationship with grandma, how could he also go to grandma. Besides, grandma's Yingyi Xuan is so close to Guan Ju Pavilion, how can he get better? ”
"You're right," Du Yingzi's voice finally eased: "This jade fox has been rumored to be rumored for so many years, and I really don't know what it looks like, but she saw it......"
Cheng Xueyan was confused, didn't she have "affection", why didn't she even see her appearance?
She couldn't help but poke her head secretly, but saw Zhen'er take out a small target mirror from her arms, Du Yingzi took it, gathered her sideburns, and took a piece of red paper and sipped it.
"Grandma just doesn't dress up, and she's seven points more beautiful than that person......"
Zhen'er lost no time in flattering, and when Du Yingzi retracted her gaze with satisfaction, she also took the opportunity to take two looks.
Cheng Xueyan found that Bitong's body trembled slightly, but when she turned around, she saw that her face was flushed, and she couldn't help laughing.
She tugged on Bitong's sleeve and was about to leave, but saw Youcui hurrying over the maple bridge.
"Sister Youcui, where is this?"
When I saw that it was the person in Du Mizhen's room, it was really sweet.
"Go find the big girl. I just went to Yanran Pavilion, but I didn't see anyone. Along the way, some people said that they saw her coming to Xinyuan......"
Even if you are so far away, you can see that the faces of the master and servant are white.
"This way...... Zhen'er's tongue was a little knotted, and he hurriedly glanced at Du Yingzi.
Although Du Yingzi is a thief, she still has a posture that the sky is falling and she is on top of, and glared at Zhen'er: "Zhen'er has been here with me for a long time, and I haven't seen a single figure, eighty percent of them are wrong......
"How so? Xiyu said that she saw her swinging here with her own eyes......"
chewing the root of the human tongue behind his back, but the person concerned heard it word for word...... Cheng Xueyan suddenly wanted to see what Du Yingzi's expression would be like if she saw her walking out of the forest, but she thought about it...... Still forget it, but ......
"I'd better look over there......
Youcui didn't have time to talk to them, so she raised her feet and walked this way.
Du Yingzi was stunned and hurriedly grabbed Youcui.
"What are you looking for her in such a hurry?"
"Alas, Captain Gu is here......"
