Section 41 Talents
After Tang Wan'er came that morning, the generals of the garrison came and went to the official residence more frequently. The newspaper would publish a telegram from the northern government every day, recruiting overseers from all over the country to return to Beijing, much like recruiting Yue Fei with the twelve gold medals that year.
Bai Yun returned home, and Murong Hualou didn't dare to sleep lazy, so he got up early to have breakfast with him. Practice calligraphy in the morning and play erhu in the afternoon.
Although it has been pulled very smoothly, the poignant tone of the erhu is sad and sad to listen to and dislike it. Bai Yungui was not polite, and directly told her that the erhu was not allowed to be pulled anymore, it was simply torturous!
The next day, she asked someone to carry a grand piano to her, and asked her if she wanted to hire a family vocal teacher, but Murong Hualou didn't dare to answer.
Bai Yunling's feet were injured as long as his muscles and bones, and after seven or eight days of rest, he was able to walk on the ground by himself. That day, Murong Painting Lou practiced calligraphy in the room, and the pen was obscure, and it became more and more difficult to write.
"Why are you so angry?" Bai Yunling held a cane with one hand, standing at the door of her room and chuckling, her snow-colored Kraft thick long skirt swaying to the ground, her blue ink curls clinging to her white cheeks, smiling pleasantly, like a Barbie doll.
Murong Hualou looked at the stains on the table, and his arrogance was extinguished, so he asked the maid to come up and clean up the table, and then helped Bai Yunling downstairs. She was always lying down and needed some activity, and Murong Painting House would occasionally accompany her for a walk around the back garden of the Overseer's Mansion.
The branches of the wood hibiscus are full of flowers, scorching and gorgeous.
Vertical and horizontal flowers, falling flowers all over the ground.
"Sister-in-law, I want to take Lu Ran to the house to play......" Bai Yunling said cautiously, the official residence is an important place for military and political affairs, she has obviously heard of it, "She didn't mean to burn my feet, so she couldn't hide from it, she thought I was angry, and I couldn't sleep if I didn't eat well...... On the letter she wrote, tears were still visible...... Sister-in-law! ”
Kraft's thick and wide sleeves swayed, and the warm fragrance floated between the ups and downs, and Murong Hualou was pulled by her arm and shaken, and his head was dizzy, so he had to respond: "Give Miss Lu a good call, it's too troublesome to write a letter!" Let's ask her to come to dinner tomorrow. I'm going to tell the Overseers......"
After dinner, Bai Yun returned to take a walk on the path in front of the official residence, and Murong Painting House followed him attentively.
The orange light shrouded her moon-white oblique old-fashioned Uesugi, and the pavilion was like a white magnolia standing proudly on the branches, and the green silk was messed up by the evening breeze, and she pressed it with her hands.
Bai Yungui has already pulled out his cigar, and the aroma of tobacco hits people.
Murong Hualou raised his eyes to look at him, the cyan robe was elegant, the resolute chin was visible, the night was full of evil spirits, and the annual rings were also collected, and his demeanor was aggressive.
"You kid, how can you stare at a man like this?" Bai Yun returned his eyes and said, his gaze casually swept over her face, and when he saw that she looked a little embarrassed, he pursed his lips and smiled.
Just a joke, she laughed, "Shouldn't the Overseers be proud?" ”
Bai Yungui knew her praise, but deliberately distorted her meaning: "What can I be proud of marrying a stupid daughter-in-law?" ”
Murong Hualou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Red lips and teeth, radiant and beautiful, in the light.
The two walked slowly along the quiet path, and Murong Painting House told Bai Yungui about Bai Yun's request, and said, "I look at Miss Lu, who is both talented and thoughtful. Ling'er has the elder brother of the Overseer, and Miss Lu is afraid and does not dare to harm her. Since the two are on good terms, it is also a good thing to let Ling'er learn her shrewdness. ”
Bai Yungui frowned and was silent, his expression just now tense.
"The commander of the Overseer army is thousands of troops, his wisdom and courage are unparalleled, and he is still afraid of Governor Lu's little beauty plan?" Murong Painting House was blunt.
Bai Yungui stared at her for a moment, his expression gradually softened, and he smiled faintly: "Hospitality is a family matter, just let the lady call the shots, don't ask me." ”
When she went back and told Bai Yunling what the Overseer meant, she happily put her arms around Murong Hualou's neck and kissed her on the cheek.
invited a dinner, and Lu Ran came in the middle of the afternoon.
The cheongsam embroidered with peonies in lilac is beautifully cut, the young body is plump and slender, and the delicate cheeks are delicately depicted, as if it has been carved flawlessly countless times. Lu Ran was originally beautiful, and a little dress was even more amazing.
Bai Yunling was also envious.
Lu Ran held a bag in his hand and handed it to Bai Yunling: "This is the coffee beans that my father's friend brought back from Japan, I heard that they are produced in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, and there are very few of them...... Rare things are expensive, and you can taste them. ”
Murong Hualou's eyes lit up. By the time of the 22nd century, the Blue Mountains were covered in snow and ice all year round, and the coffee beans that were originally famous for the century were no longer there.
Lu Ran also prepared a gift for Murong Painting Building, which was a bottle of red wine.
Bai Yunling looked at her sister-in-law's eyebrows and smiles, and knew that Lu Ran had done what she liked, and she was also happy in her heart. All she wants is for her friends to be affirmed by her family.
The maid made coffee, made a cake, and the three of them had afternoon tea on the sofa in the living room. Warm daylight shines through the lace screens, casting dappled shadows. Outside the window, the lush woods rustle, and the piano cover in the corner of the wall lifted a corner in the wind.
The coffee was fragrant, and Murong Hualou instructed the servant: "Send one to the Overseer!" ”
Lu Ran lowered his eyes, ecstatic in his heart.
The servant stepped back and said to Murong Hualou, "The Overseer said that the coffee was delicious, thank you, madam." ”
Murong Hualou's expression remained unchanged, and he squinted his eyes and tasted his own. Lu Ran was annoyed in his heart, looking at the simple and ignorant smiling face of Murong Painting Building, he was quite angry.
There are those who have the treasure that others dream of, but they don't see it.
"Hey, what a beautiful piano!" Lu Ran said suddenly.
It's just that the corner was lifted by the wind, revealing the lacquered lid, and she asserted that the piano was beautiful, how could Murong Hualou not know her plans, so she smiled and said: "The Overseer bought it newly and wanted me to practice." It's a pity that I don't have a lot of talent......"
Bai Yunling hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, Lu Ran talks about a good piano, let her teach you......"
Lu Ran's eyes were bright, but he said modestly: "I've only studied for a few years, and it's not satisfactory." I heard that Madame once played the piano in the Li Mansion, and she was amazed. ”
"Misinformation......" She didn't explain much, seeing the ripples of anticipation in Lu Ranqiushui's eyes, she was funny in her heart, for the sake of her coffee beans and red wine, help her, "Ling'er said that Miss Lu plays the piano well, and Miss Lu doesn't have to be too humble." Why don't you play it and let's listen to it......"
Lu Ran's afterglow swept over the roof of the building, and Bai Yungui was on the second floor.
She pretended to shirk it, but she couldn't stand Bai Yunling's insistence and Murong Painting Building's push, and sat on the piano bench elegantly, her white fingers dancing on the piano keys.
It's a Schumann tune.
However, the piano skills are medium to low, only a few points smooth, and they cannot interpret the brilliance of Schumann's music. Bai Yunling is not good at the piano, so he naturally doesn't understand it, and he applauds vigorously. Lu Ran's cheeks were flushed, and he was also proud in his heart.
Murong Hualou blocked his lips with a coffee cup and couldn't help laughing.
Bai Yungui's close lieutenant came downstairs and asked, "Ma'am, the Overseer asked who was playing the harp." ”
Murong Hualou pointed at Lu Ran, and said that it was Miss Lu.
The adjutant turned around and went upstairs, Bai Yunling took Lu Ran's hand and sneered: "My eldest brother also thinks it sounds good, so he specially called the adjutant to ask!" She is simple-minded and happy that her friend is so versatile.
"Maybe it's ugly, maybe it's disturbing the Overseers!" Lu Rantao's face was pink, and he said shyly, but his eyes were shining and dazzling. She was just a humble word, and the thoughts in her heart were roughly the same as Bai Yunling's.
Murong Painting House worked very hard, so he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
A young girl, indeed cute.
When she pulled the erhu for the first time, Bai Yungui asked the adjutant to ask who was pulling; The next day, I clearly told her that she was not allowed to pull it again!
