Chapter 1 The first sight of the flower town
"Mother, I want to go to Duhua Township to play." The little girl tugged at the hem of the young woman's garment and begged.
The young woman scratched her nose and laughed, "You're fifteen years old, and you're still so naughty." Wait until next time your father has time to take us out. ”
"No, people just have to play now! Brother Du showed off to me just now that he had been there, and I would go too. He said that there were a lot of beautiful little brothers and sisters there, and there were tweed everywhere. Fragrant. Xueyin's favorite place full of flowers! The little girl made an exaggerated gesture, her eyebrows fluttered, and she danced happily as she spoke, her eyes full of yearning for it.
"Snow yin, can't be naughty. Your father is busy, and your mother can't take a break from it. There will be a chance. The woman restrained her smile and touched her head and whispered softly.
When the little girl realized that she could not do as she pleased, she immediately burst into tears and said aggrievedly, "Mother said the same thing last time. Xueyin is fifteen years old this year, and her mother still agreed when Xueyin was seven years old. Father and mother are liars. Promise Xueyin has never done it! ”
Then she shook the woman's hand away and sat down on the ground in anger. Tears welled up in his eyes.
At this time, an old man walked out of the living room, with kind eyebrows. A long face with thick eyebrows, thin eyes, and a hooked nose, smiled shallowly, and was full of love for the girl's willfulness, but it seemed that there was still some treachery in his countenance.
The grandfather came and sat down next to the girl, smiling kindly and stroking her hair. The little girl's face looks very cute, with white skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, neat teeth and a small mouth. The tears fell straight down, and he pouted and looked at the sky with tears.
"Alright, alright. Go as you want. It just so happened that Steward Chen was going there on a cloudy day to discuss a business, so he would take you to play for a while. Since we want to go to Xueyin, let's go and see how beautiful the place that even Chengye said is good. We've been here for five or six years, and we haven't been to so many beautiful places, which is a pity. It's okay for grandpa to spoil you, you can go, but you have to listen to Steward Chen's words, don't run around there, in case you run away, let grandpa find you somewhere. Xue Yin is so well-behaved and obedient, she naturally understands. The old man laughed, picked her up and sat on his lap, and wiped her tears with his fingers.
When she heard that her grandfather had promised her to go, she was naturally happy. With a sleeve to his face, he jumped off his grandfather's lap and ran around happily in the yard.
"Okay, come back to Xueyin and bring you the most beautiful flowers there! And give two more to grandpa! Liang Xueyin ran and jumped. Use her little hand to figure out two. ran out of the yard again, and said happily as he ran: "Little brother and sister, I'm here, hahaha." ”
Seeing her run out, the woman asked worriedly, "It's good there, but... ”
"Out of the way. Steward Chen has also followed me for so many years, and he knows how to measure. The old man stretched out his hand to stop her, "Naturally, someone has to send someone to keep an eye on her." It's good for her to go out and meet her. Living under our shelter is not good for her. Born in our family, she had to learn to be smart as soon as possible. ”
"Don't worry, the young lady, the old slave naturally takes care of the young lady. If the young lady is lost, the old slave will not come back. Steward Chen hunched his waist on the side and said respectfully.
"Steward Chen, of course I don't worry about you. It's just that this kid has been naughty since he was a child, and he doesn't know what trouble will happen there. So many pairs of eyes on us. The woman frowned slightly and sighed.
"You don't have to worry about that. The only daughter of the Liang family, she has to save her life even if she gives up her old life. The old man coughed a few times and replied to her.
"Then let's hope she doesn't meet those guys. I heard that the prince of Ye Guo was also there. Even if he ran out secretly, there must be guards around him. ”
"My Liang Zong's granddaughter is also a dragon and phoenix among people. It's not inferior to their bunch of kids. In another three years, it will be time for Mr. Wei to fulfill his promise. I'm going to let Xue Yin go to Mr. Wei's to study for a year, you are her mother after all, what do you think? ”
"Fathers have their own considerations, just do what you want. The daughter-in-law agreed. ”
"Okay, okay."
The last rays of light on the horizon also fell, and even the last tenderness of the day disappeared.
There are also many flowers planted in Liang's house, all of which are her favorites. But she still wants to see the sea of flowers the most. I really want to see where Brother Du shows off to her!
I was so excited that I didn't fall asleep all night, but my mother said that no matter how sleepy she was at night, she would close her eyes and lie on her stomach, and she would not be allowed to secretly read and study at night, so she could only cover her head with a quilt and read a picture book. She doesn't like those military books! I don't like to fight and kill! Don't like to have people bleed!
She loves handsome little brother and beautiful little sister!!
Happy!
I didn't sleep all night, but I lasted until morning, and when the sun just came out, she yawned all day. After eating, not a word of her mother's nagging entered her mind.
The sunshine is so beautiful, and in the carriage, thousands of people told Steward Chen to call himself. After falling asleep, I don't know how long it has been. When you open your eyes, there is no one around. Very frustrated. When the curtain was opened, the pink peach blossoms were close in front of him, completely forgetting Steward Chen.
This is Duhua Township, the Xu family is a well-known local wealthy businessman, and half of the flowers here are planted by their hands. Make a fortune by planting flowers and get rich by doing business. They dedicated flowers to the royal palace. We do all kinds of business in the local area.
It's just a well-known local rich businessman, but it's not the richest in the country. The richest in the country is the Liang family. The Liang family has made achievements in several areas around the world. Specialized in business. The wealth is rivaled by the country, and the heritage is profound.
The nearby street is full of food. It is also a very lively commercial street. That's a lot of people. Fortunately, she secretly carried some silver when she came out, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to buy gifts. Deliberately wore her favorite clothes. A pink and white dress. Not very flashy but exquisite, like a little princess. also brought the Pixiu jade plate given to her by Brother Du.
I don't know how many turns she made, but she smelled the fragrance and walked.
Those paving were a dozen centimeters shorter than her. You can see the jewelry on the shop. It's beautiful. She grabbed one casually, and the style was beautiful. A lot of them are in the style of cherry blossoms and peach blossoms. I didn't expect these things sold outside to be very beautiful, not at all like my mother said, what I have is already the most beautiful in the country.
There was a hairpin in the shop that she looked at. This hairpin is silver. Half-moon shaped, there are many peach blossoms on the side of the moon, and even butterflies on the peach blossoms. There is also a jade hairpin in the style of flowing clouds. It's all good. Then buy them all!
"How much does this cost?" She asked, holding up the hairpin in her hand.
"The little girl has such good eyesight, these two are my best things. These two, I'm not bargaining. The female shopkeeper looked Liang Xueyin's dress up and down, and couldn't hide a smile on her face
Compare it with your hand to ten taels.
"It's so cheap." Liang Xueyin exclaimed, and obediently took out a heavy amount of silver from the money bag and gave it to her.
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and she carefully put the silver into her purse. This must be twenty taels, what a rich man. ’
"Little girl, I still have a lot of things here, you can take a look at them. Especially this one, many people value it, but I don't sell it. Just wait for someone to buy it. We also do business with integrity. Every piece of jewellery has its soul. ”
Liang Xueyin stood on tiptoe and looked at the jewelry that the shop owner had strongly pushed, and shook her head. I thought: It's too gorgeous for my mother.
So he turned around and prepared to go straight away.
"Don't go." A little boy about her age grabbed her. Shake your head at her. Then he said to the shopkeeper, "Auntie, you haven't found any money for her yet." She had just given at least twenty taels. Even if it's ten taels as you say, there's still ten taels to look for. ”
Liang Xueyin looked at him and saw that he had a pair of unusually beautiful amber eyes, and his heart was immediately moved.
The shopkeeper frowned at the boy, "Of course you have to find money." Look at how dirty your hands are and you still hold other people's girls' hands, and they get their hands dirty. Don't look at what other people's identities are, what identities you have. ”
She still reluctantly handed out ten taels.
The little boy got ten taels and stuffed them to Liang Xueyin. A look of disgust.
"Here you go. Others are stupid and have a lot of money. ”
Liang Xueyin was also a little unhappy, and said, "It's not just ten taels of silver." ”
"It's only ten taels of silver for you, and it may be a few months' food expenses for others." The little boy was not happy and blamed her.
"That's for you. I don't want it. Liang Xueyin gave him the money.
He dodge, don't. "I don't want ill-gotten gains. I earn all the money I use. No matter how poor you are, you have backbone. ”
"Hmph." Liang Xueyin puffed up.
Suddenly, someone ran up to her and bumped into her shoulder. The man fell and sat on the ground. And she was held tightly by the boy so she didn't fall.
She broke free from the boy's embrace. Trying to lift the child up, the boy grabbed her outstretched hand and shook his head at her. But she pulled his hand away again and lifted the child up.
"Are you alright?" She asked him affectionately.
The kid shook his head. "Thank you, sister, I'm fine."
He patted his ass and ran away.
"Which one is like you, covered in mud and doesn't care about your image at all! I don't help others yet, and my heart is not kind at all! Liang Xueyin was very angry and yelled at him.
The boy stepped back, disgusted, and said, "Who wants you to be as kind as you think?" I don't want your praise either. Stupidly stupid. I don't even know if I've been deceived by others. I'm going to be stupid too. I don't want to stay with you. ”
Liang Xueyin was very, very unhappy. He frowned and pouted, smacking his face.
Snorted, threw down the bitter face and left.
When I met this strange thing, I was in a bad mood. Walking around this street, I didn't pay as much attention to beautiful things as I used to.
When I went back, I told my mother about this strange thing. Mother must have thought she was right.
The further you go, the louder the noise in your ears.
There was a richly dressed woman who spoke very fiercely to a beggar child. That kid was her age.
"Why are you stealing my money?! Say! Don't learn well at a young age! How your mother taught you. ”
"I didn't steal your money, I didn't. I was wronged. The kid cried.
Everyone around them pointed at the boy, but Liang Xueyin didn't think so.
She suddenly felt a sense of justice and stepped forward. Pick the boy up. The boy was scared and kept hiding behind her.
She patted his hand. Reassuring, "Don't be afraid. ”
"Seeing that you are also a child of a big family, don't mix with these people." The woman tried to drag her over, but she shook her hand away.
"Don't! He said no, no, no! Don't keep pestering him. You are not short of money. Liang Xueyin opened the money bag and took out half of the money from it and gave it to her. Is this enough money to compensate you for the money you lost? ”
"You little girl." The woman was so angry that she picked up the money and turned away.
Seeing her leave, Liang Xueyin turned around and comforted the boy with a smile and said, "It's okay." She's gone. ”
"Thank you." The boy's hair was messy. Broken hair obscured the face. There is still ash on the face. I couldn't see him at all. The clothes were also mended, but they were still damaged. Just like the boy who was angry with her before.
The boy ran away. It's because I'm shy.
She also smiled and scratched her head.
Someone behind her suddenly spoke, completely despising her: "I don't know that the money was stolen, and I laughed stupidly." Is there anyone more stupid than you in the world? ”
Liang Xueyin quickly turned around, and was very annoyed when he saw his face. Touch your purse.
?
What about the money bag? Where's her purse?!
I'm really going to be.
She was still very stubborn and replied, "I'm not wrong! I'm doing what I'm supposed to do! Mother said that there is nothing wrong with kindness! ”
"Of course you're not wrong." The boy grinned, "You're just just stupid." ”
"I don't need you to laugh at me! I'll go find Steward Chen, and the butler will give me money anyway. I'll buy whatever I want! Liang Xueyin shouted at him.
The way she came to find her was full of people, and she couldn't remember where she had come from.
The boy ignored her and walked straight on.
Liang Xueyin found out that he was about to leave, and immediately grabbed his wrist. Some helplessly said, "Don't go, I can't find my way back." The look of the water in his eyes made the boy unbearable.
"My name is Ke Yangui." The boy said.
"Okay, Brother Yangui, can you take me to find my way back?" Her momentum softened. It's not okay to be soft.
"Wouldn't it be nice to do this sooner?" Seeing her suddenly coquettish, I was reluctant. So he rubbed her hair with his hands, rubbed her hair up, and slowly combed it back again.
"Uh-huh."
"Let's go. Do you remember anything that was particularly impressive when you came? Ke Yangui took her hand through his sleeve and asked her.
She thought for a moment and replied, "I don't remember." ”
Touching the rough fabric, it was uncomfortable, so I rolled up his sleeves a little and held his dirty hands directly.
Curious, he asked, "What are you doing?" Why is it all dirt? ”
"Nothing." Ke Yangui didn't want to say.
"Oh."
"I'm here to take you to find your way back, not for you to ask questions." Ke Yangui was a little annoyed.
"No, I can't. If I can't find my relatives, I'll have to pester you. ”
Ke Yangui let go of her hand, very disgusted.
"Pull down."
Liang Xueyin pulled back again.
"No~ I have to pester you. Otherwise, if a beautiful little girl like me is targeted by some bad guy. ”
