"I miss my relatives every festive season", it's the New Year, and Qingwen misses her parents even more.

A chaotic and rhythmless knock on the door pulled her back from her thoughts, and she quietly wiped the tears that overflowed from the corners of her eyes.

I can't think about it, I don't dare to think about it, I just want my parents to be healthy and happy in that world.

"Who? Come over at this time? ”

Jia Hui muttered quietly, holding a rag in one hand and a hand of ashes, and ran to open the door with a "click".

After a while, she ran back and said with a smile: "Girl, it's Si'er, say that the second master is waiting for the girl in the outer study, let the girl go." ”

"What do you tell me to do? Still going to the outer study? Qingwen said suspiciously.

She said that she didn't know either, and only said that the second master asked the girl to go. Jia Hui is crisp and authentic.

"Delay my work."

Qingwen grunted, jumped down from the stool, tore off the headscarf and the cloth towel covering her mouth and nose, patted her body a few times, pulled down her sleeves and walked out.

"Girl, won't you freshen up and change your clothes before you go?" Xiaohong hurriedly shouted.

"I won't freshen up, I'll continue to sweep when I come back."

Qingwen put on a homely jacket and walked out of the yard quickly, saying as she walked, "You don't have to follow, just finish sweeping it quickly." ”

Out of the Grand View Garden, it didn't take a few steps to reach Baoyu's outer study, and Qingwen was even more strange.

In the past, as long as Baoyu was here, it was always very lively.

A few small guys, such as tea, ink rain, hoeing, and sweeping red, will be outside the study, or watering flowers and feeding birds, or playing and playing, waiting for the second master to greet them.

Today, there is no one to see, and in the courtyard of the entire outer study, only the birds hanging under the edge of the corridor are "chirping", where are the people?

Qingwen thought to herself, and without pausing at her feet, she gently pushed open the door and walked in.

Baoyu was not in the house, and there was another person sitting in front of the big case of carved orchids and bamboos.

When she saw the beautiful son with a long and jade body, Qingwen was stunned all of a sudden.

"Mu ...... Mu Gongzi! Why are you here? ”

"I ......" Mu Nanfeng was also stunned.

Qingwen usually doesn't dress up very carefully, but she has a good foundation, her skin is as fine as cream, pink and translucent, like delicate and smooth jade.

Although the clothing is not luxurious, it pays more attention to simplicity and comfort.

But in Mu Nanfeng's eyes, she has always been decent, elegant, pretty and generous.

Now...... Where did this grizzled little girl come from?

His hair was a little messy, and he wore only a big ponytail.

There are a few invisible spider silk stains on the broken hair on the forehead, and there are two suspicious stains at the corners of the eyes on both sides.

"Oh, I...... I was sweeping the house just now," Qingwen casually tapped her cheek twice, "Is your face stained with ash?" ”

"Hmm."

Mu Nanfeng nodded, shook his head again, and said in his heart, it's okay if you don't scratch, this stroke will look better.

He couldn't help but pull out a blue handkerchief, got up and walked to Qingwen, and reached out to help her wipe her cheeks.

Halfway through his hand, he stopped consciously, handed the handkerchief to Qingwen, and said softly: "Here, wipe your face." ”

Qingwen glanced at the handkerchief and took a step back.

That's Mu Nanfeng's personal thing, how dare she take it?

The next time I see those two dead old men, I must ask clearly, how can this hateful exercise be able to be retracted and released freely?

At least she has to be able to control whether she falls asleep or not when she holds someone else's things.

"You, you dislike? The veil is clean. Qingwen's regression was too sudden, and Mu Nanfeng seemed to feel hurt, and said a little embarrassed.

"Oh, no, no, no, I have my own," Qingwen quickly took out her handkerchief and pulled it twice on her face, "My face is dirty, don't stain Childe's handkerchief." ”

Mu Nanfeng looked at her steadily, and the hurt look in his eyes did not disappear at all.

If you don't use his veil, you still dislike him.

"Childe, is there something wrong with me coming to me today?" Qingwen asked bluntly.

The atmosphere in the room was a little weird, and she wasn't going to continue the conversation with him.

"I ...... It's something. ”

Mu Nanfeng hesitated for a moment, took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and carefully opened it layer by layer, revealing a string of pearl bracelets wrapped inside.

The beads were evenly spaced and glittered in the faint light of the window.

"I think you dress simply on weekdays, and you should add something for the next year. I got a box of beads before, and I didn't use it much, and it was a tyrannical thing to put there in vain. I picked a few and skewered this bracelet. If the girl doesn't dislike it, please take it. ”

Mu Nanfeng's bright eyes stared at Qingwen with some burning, and the grievances of being hurt still flashed in his eyes.

Qingwen was stared at by him, and she felt a little guilty inexplicably, but she still politely refused: "Mu Gongzi, this is too precious, Qingwen can't accept it." ”

The string of beads is as red as blood, but crystal clear, if it is worn on Qingwen's white jade wrist, it will complement each other and shine.

Although Qingwen couldn't recognize what kind of beads it was, she knew that it must be of the highest grade, how could she accept it?

Mu Nanfeng held the string of beads persistently, looked directly at Qingwen, and said softly but firmly:

"Qingwen, you should know Nanfeng's intentions. You are already in the year of peace, and the south wind is nine out of ten. Next year, Nanfeng will participate in the spring festival, and then it will be the palace examination. If you are lucky enough to get a Zhongjin Shi and get a position, Nanfeng will come to Jiafu again and ...... with you."

"You...... Say no more! Lin Qingwen panicked all of a sudden, of course she understood Mu Nanfeng's intentions.

If he wins the Jinshi next year, he will have the qualifications to be an official, and if he can get a position, he will come to Jiafu and officially propose to her.

But how could she promise him?

She didn't belong to this world, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, maybe one day in the future, she would leave here.

At that point, what will happen to the two worlds? Long thoughts, endless waiting? It's better to persuade him to break this thought as soon as possible.

"You still hate me after all?" Mu Nanfeng's eyes suddenly lost their brilliance, and he muttered, "Do you think my family background is thin and unworthy of you?" I actually ......"

"Say no more! Whatever you think, I won't ask for your string of beads, and you won't come again! ”

Lin Qingwen interrupted him rudely, no matter what he said, the two of them could only have one result. So, she didn't want to listen to him anymore.

Mu Nanfeng's eyes were full of ashes, put the bead string on the table, and walked out.

"The south wind is reckless today, and we will discuss it later. Let this string of beads be kept, and it will not be in vain for me. ”

He walked outside, but Jia Baoyu hurriedly pushed the door in, and said hurriedly: "How many things have you two not finished talking about?" Brother Mu quickly hide, someone is coming. ”
