Chapter 13: Heroes Save Beauty?
Qiao Hongshi was stunned and embarrassed, and he was secretly angry in his heart, and the eyes of his colleagues around him were like thorns in his back, so he had to shut up.
Lou Yunxiao chuckled, she likes this Mu Lingci's temperament quite much, and like her, she can't tolerate others blindly deducting.
Everyone was silent, Qiao Nanyi felt that his face was gloomy, but his head was now slightly lowered, his hands were clenched into fists, and his teeth bit his lips fiercely, but he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the smile on the corner of Lou Yunxiao's mouth, and suddenly became even more angry.
At this time, Lou Yunxiao also noticed Qiao Nanyi, looking at her annoyed and angry look, she thought that she must be the little lady of Qiao Shangshu's family. Lou Yunxiao put away her smile, she didn't want to clash with people here.
"This coral is very beautiful, it is difficult to find such a treasure for the abyss, and the old man likes it very much. Come and set up a chair for Mu Shaoqing. Mrs. Chengguo said kindly.
"Thank you, old lady."
Mu Lingci originally planned to leave after giving the gift, but he didn't want to leave at this time, since someone couldn't get used to him here, then he wanted to stay, anyway, it must be the other party who was not happy.
After the feast, it is free time to visit the garden, although there are no flowers, birds and trees, but there are musicians and dancers everywhere in the garden, but it also has a unique flavor.
Lou Yunxiao pulled Sister and Chun'er away from those nobles, especially Qiao Nanyi, looking at her as if she was going to eat people, it was better to hide quietly.
The three of them stopped at a pond where the pines and cypresses were trimmed and some snow was still falling.
Lou Yunxiao thought to herself, the Qihua jade tree here is much more beautiful than the red coral, so she pulled her sister and Chun'er to sit under the porch.
The sound of silk and bamboo came from afar, and I closed my eyes and listened, and my heart settled down a lot. The greasy smell of fragrant powder in her nasal cavity finally dissipated, but she always felt that there was still some residual smell in her throat, and she took a few deep breaths, trying to filter out the disgusting smell.
"Xiao'er, look, those little ladies seem to be coming at us." Lou Yunshuang looked at the group of noble girls who were approaching with great momentum and suddenly felt bad, and held Lou Yunxiao's hand tightly.
Lou Yunxiao opened her eyes and looked over there, her eyebrows frowned slightly, wasn't that the leader the little lady who was blue and green on the table, she got up quickly, pulled up her sister and Chun'er and was about to go in the opposite direction.
"In front of you are the three ladies of the Lou family!" Jonanyi raised her voice and shouted at them. Her shout didn't matter, and it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Lou Yunxiao: Stepping on a horse! I can't afford to provoke and hide!
She turned around and protected her sister and Chun'er behind her.
"Presumably this is the little lady of Qiao Shangshu's family, disrespectful and disrespectful." Lou Yunxiao bowed slightly, and a pair of smart eyes looked at her directly.
Lou Yunshuang and Lou Yunchun also saluted when they saw this, but they both lowered their eyes and didn't dare to look directly at Qiao Nanyi.
Qiao Nanyi rolled her eyes disdainfully, gave the nobles behind her a look, and then stepped forward and took Lou Yunxiao's hand and walked to the pool. The ladies stopped the two sisters in their way.
Anyone can see that this Qiao Nanyi has the intention to find trouble with Lou Yunxiao, but who would offend Qiao Nanyi for the lady of a small official family, for a while, the people around stopped to watch, and other people who were wandering around also heard the noise. In less than half a cup of tea, under the corridor, on the wooden bridge, and on the other side of the pool, there were people standing to watch the excitement.
Lou Yunshuang and Chun'er were surrounded by other nobles, and they couldn't go to report to their brother, so they could only watch Lou Yunxiao being dragged away by Qiao Nanyi.
Lou Yunxiao tried her best to break free, but she was not too rude in front of so many people, and finally simply gave up struggling, anyway, if she was injured, she would definitely not let this little lady of the Qiao family be safe and sound.
Everyone knows that Qiao Nanyi is domineering, and she doesn't care about the eyes of others, and she drags Lou Yunxiao's hand until the edge of the pool before letting go.
She looked around, deliberately raised her voice, and said sneeringly: "It's the first time for Lou Sanniang to come to such a big banquet, after all, she came out of a poor country, and it is normal to not know how to be polite if she has never seen the world." However, I heard that Lou Sanniang's biological mother became a monk early, so you are a little wild seed with a mother and no mother's education, so it seems that it is understandable. ”
As soon as these words came out, the people around them began to discuss, and the voice of the crowd even overshadowed the voice of Sizhu.
This is the knot in Lou Yunxiao's heart, and it is also her sore spot. But she still tried her best to suppress her anger, and the tingling sensation of her nails embedded in her palms calmed her down a little.
"Lady Qiao, I don't know what kind of rudeness I have offended you? If you really want to talk about it, Qiao Niangzi made such a fuss at the birthday banquet of the Taishi Mansion and said bad words, which is the real rudeness, right? ”
"How dare you talk back!" It was the first time that Qiao Nanyi met the little lady who dared to talk back to her, and now her anger burned even more.
At this time, Mu Lingci stood quietly on the wooden bridge, his outstanding figure was even more pretentious among the group of Langjun, and the eyes of the little ladies instantly converged, but his eyes looked at the little lady of the Lou family opposite Qiao Nanyi.
Although he looks only twelve or thirteen years old, and his face is a little immature, he is already very delicate and lovely.
Slender willow eyebrows, a pair of apricot eyes are as clear and clear as a pool, a small and straight nose is like a beautiful mountain, cherry-like vermilion lips are also ruddy and translucent without lipstick, a goose egg face is round and exquisite, and she seems to be coated with a layer of blurry and bright light under the background of the sun, even if he does not apply powder, it is enough to make him unable to take his eyes off.
It was the first time for Mu Lingci to look at a little lady like this.
But he didn't know that Princess Changhe on the other side of the pool had a full view of all this, and her eyes were a little vicious when she looked at Lou Yunxiao, and she secretly scolded: "Fox Meizi." ”
Lou Yunxiao saw that there were more and more people around her, and said respectfully: "If you offend Mrs. Qiao because of the banquet, I will make amends to you here." ”
Qiao Nanyi sneered, how could she let Lou Yunxiao go so easily, and approached her step by step, "Do you think it will be useful to make amends?" ”
The voices of the surrounding people were getting stronger and stronger, and they all wanted to see how this newcomer should deal with it, and at this moment Lou Yunxiao remembered the picture of watching the gorillas beating each other in the zoo, but at this moment she became the beaten gorilla.
Seeing Qiao Nanyi pressing forward step by step, Lou Yunxiao had to retreat step by step.
Lou Yunxiao caught a glimpse of the pond just one step away behind her, immediately stopped, and raised her voice, "I have apologized to Mrs. Qiao, but you are still struggling." Qiao Niangzi was not angry because of the conversation between Mu Langjun and Qiao Shangshu on the banquet, so she deliberately asked me, a powerless little lady, to be angry, Qiao Niangzi bullied others, is this the style and upbringing of famous families? ”
As if she had been told something in her heart, Jonanyi's face became even worse, and she just wanted to pounce and make a move when she felt her arms being clamped by the person in front of her.
"Poof!"
Both of them fell into the water, and the splash even formed a rainbow in the sunlight.
In the eyes of others, Lou Yunxiao was forced to take a step back by Qiao Nanyi, and her center of gravity was unstable before she grabbed Qiao Nanyi, causing the two to fall into the water together.
But only Qiao Nanyi saw Lou Yunxiao showing a triumphant smile at her when she fell into the water.
Seeing the excitement of the crowd, there was an uproar, even if Lang Jun fell into the pool on such a cold day, he might not be able to bear it, let alone two squeamish little ladies. The crowd rioted for a while, some went to inform Ning Taishi, some went to find bamboo poles to save people, and some continued to watch the excitement......
The two of them in the lake kept splashing, Qiao Nanyi was strong and still had the strength to struggle for a while, but Lou Yunxiao's body had become weak because she had been sitting in a wheelchair all year round.
The icy pool water quickly soaked through her dress and invaded her entire body, and at that moment Lou Yunxiao seemed to be in the ice and snow, she held her breath and wanted to drive her limbs to flutter twice, but her limbs were numb, allowing her to sink slowly.
She could swim, but it seemed to be out of order at the moment. She thought to herself, Xu is too delicate to withstand such a strong stimulation. When her consciousness was slowly blurred, she seemed to hear the cry of the sister by the pool.
"Help! Xiao'er, she doesn't know water, please save her! Lou Yunshuang's eyes were red, choked up and desperately shouted for help.
Chun'er on the side was already frightened, she seemed to remember something terrible, her face was frightened, she picked up her dress and ran out of the crowd.
People on the wooden bridge also began to riot.
Mu Lingci looked down at the location where Lou Yunxiao fell into the water, and there were ripples in a circle, but she never saw Lou Yunxiao swimming up, frowning slightly, she really didn't know water? Seeing that she deliberately provoked Qiao Nanyi, and pretended to slip under her feet and dragged Qiao Nanyi into the water together, she thought that she would swim up by herself, but something seemed wrong with this situation, could it be a way to hurt the enemy by a thousand and lose eight hundred?
Thinking of this, he untied the rope from his robe, took off his robe and threw it to the guards accompanying him, and jumped into the pond.
