There is a lake to the south of the city of Wu Guodongxu.

The name of the lake is Acacia Lake.

There is an elegant courtyard on the shore of Acacia Lake, and its name is Acacia Residence.

Acacia Curie once had a girl, her name was Li Acacia.

Now this girl has become a half-old, her appearance has changed a lot from the past, what remains unchanged is the layout of this lovesick house, and her name.

And, of course, her skill in simmering deer antler velvet with cabbage.

Sitting in the Acacia Pavilion on the second floor of Acacia Residence, blowing the cool lake breeze in early autumn, drinking a cup of tea made from lotus leaves and lotus seeds, Hua Manting looked up at the person sitting opposite.

It was a woman.

Under the light of the red lantern, her face looked a little haggard, like the withered lotus leaves in the Acacia Lake, but it was difficult to hide the beauty of the lotus flowers when they bloomed.

And the charm!

She didn't apply powder.

She had only a very ordinary willow hairpin in her bun, and a small wooden pendant hung from it.

If you look closely, the pendant is carved with a butterfly.

She is more graceful than when she was a girl, without the childishness of the past, and she is more rich in calmness.

She is not Li Xiangsi.

She was...... Miao Qiuqin!

The former eldest lady of the General Wu Mansion, and now the wife of Xia Liu, Xia Hua, the wife of Xia Guogong's Mansion, Miao Qiuqin!

Prince Ann sat on one side.

He was facing Acacia Lake.

His slightly chubby face didn't lift up, he was concentrating on boiling lotus leaf lotus seed tea.

Hua Manting took a sip of tea and opened his mouth:

"Madam, the old man never expected the old man to come here, since the old man came, I think I came to ask the old man some people or some things."

"Madam, it's okay to ask, the old man knows everything!"

Miao Qiuqin smiled lightly, and two small pear vortices appeared on her cheeks.

She stretched out her hand and stroked the hair on her forehead, which was a little messy by the night wind, and asked seriously:

"My daughter Xia Hua, is she really in love with Li Chen'an?"

"Yes!"

"Did Li Chenan really enter the Forgetfulness Stage?"

"Yes!"

"My daughter's Heavenly Demon Appearance is really Li Chen'an?"

"Yes."

Miao Qiuqin took a long breath and turned her eyes to look at the dark Acacia Lake outside the window.

"In this way, she will not be able to marry in her life!"

Hua Manting pondered for a moment: "If Li Chenan can come out, of course she can marry Li Chenan." ”

Miao Qiuqin smiled bitterly:

"But that place is the Forgetfulness Terrace!"

"I've also read Li Chenan's poems and articles, that kid ...... I still like it very much, but I just want to get out of the platform of forgetfulness, but the poetry article is useless. ”

Hua Manting thought for a while and comforted: "Maybe he can really practice the Fuji Zhou Tian Technique to the Great Perfection." ”

Miao Qiuqin's eyebrows raised slightly, and she didn't have any hope for this.

It was the forbidden place of the Sword Washing Building.

It's also a Jedi.

For thousands of years, so many extremely talented disciples of the Sword Washing Building have entered it, and none of them have been able to get out, which of course she will not believe for Miao Qiuqin, who has already become rational.

Wu Huan, Prince An, who was making tea, looked at Hua Manting at this time.

There was some admiration, some loss, and some curiosity in his eyes.

"Hua Lao, this king never expected that he was Li Chenan!"

"This king really obeyed him!"

"Originally, the king admired his poetry and articles, but now he ...... Now this king admires him as a person! ”

"True temperament!"

"Because he is extremely emotional, his poems have that unforgettable soul!"

"This king is a brother to him, but this king is not as good as him!"

"After hearing the news that he was Li Xiaofeng, this king didn't sleep all night that night, it's a pity, it's a pity!"

Wu Huan shook his head and sighed: "I hope he can come out of the Forgetting Stage, he will reappear in the world, he is not just a poet, he is still ...... Martial Saint! ”

The world's No. 1 Zhou Tianjue!

If Li Chenan can come out alive, it means that he has practiced the number one divine skill in the world, which means that he has achieved the great grandmaster and is invincible in the world!

This is Wu Huan's good expectation, in his heart, of course, he also thinks that Li Chenan is impossible.

So, he extinguished the tea stove and put a jar of painting Pingchun on the table.

A woman about the same age as Miao Qiuqin walked over.

She has a pot in her hand!

Hot smoke wafted from the pot, and an enticing aroma wafted from the pot.

She is Li Xiangsi.

She put the pot on the table, wiped her hands on her apron, and whispered to Miao Qiuqin:

"It's been a long time since I've made this snow cabbage and simmered deer antler velvet, and there is no fresh snow cabbage at this time...... It may taste a little worse, ma'am, and try it. ”

Miao Qiuqin raised her head and smiled slightly, "I am naturally relieved of your craftsmanship, when the snow falls this winter, we will go to Sword Mountain to dig snow vegetables together!" ”

"Good!"

Li Xiangsi bowed and retreated.

Miao Qiuqin looked at Hua Manting: "Hua Lao, please try it." ”

Hua Manting picked up the chopsticks, put a chopstick in his mouth and chewed it carefully, and after a while, he put down the chopsticks:

"Good taste!"

Miao Qiuqin didn't hold chopsticks.

She suddenly lowered her head and sighed: "Back then, he brought me here to eat this dish." ”

"The first time I ate this dish, I thought it was the best taste in the world."

But then ...... Later, Hua Lao must have known that he was gone. ”

"After he left, I came here to eat again, but I couldn't taste it again."

"After that, I would occasionally come here, but I just sat and talked to my sister Acacia and drank the lotus seed tea she brewed herself."

"I never ate this dish again, but I drank a lot of that lotus seed tea."

"The bitter taste, which I never liked before, but since he left...... I just fell in love with the taste. ”

She raised her head and smiled again: "It's all over, he's been in Ningguo all these years, is it okay?" ”

Hua Manting took a sip of his wine glass.

What Miao Qiuqin is talking about at the moment, of course, is warm boiling rain.

"It's not good, and it's certainly not bad."

"Li Chenan trusted him, and he realized his ideals and ambitions in Ningguo."

"But in life, it's a mess."

"After he left the state of Wu, Yu Zhaohua went to Hui in the autumn of the third year, where he became a relative, married to the seventh princess of the Hui chieftain, and he gave her a Han name called Yewan."

"Later, he returned to Ningguo with Yewan and had a daughter named Wen Xiaowan."

"When Wen Xiaowan was two or three years old, Yewan left him and never came back."

Since then, he took his daughter to Guangling City and built a small building on the shore of Huaping Lake...... She was adopted by Shang Di, and later, later went to the Qinglou. ”

Miao Qiuqin was taken aback, and Hua Manting said again: "This is Wen Xiaowan's choice, she is quite resentful of Wen Zhuanyu's father. ”

"But Wen Xiaowan didn't do anything out of the ordinary in the Qinglou, and now she is still taking care of the Qinglou and helping Li Chenan take care of it."

"This girl is also ill-fated, and she also likes Li Chen'an."

"It's kind of fate."

Miao Qiuqin looked at the dark Acacia Lake again.

Pulling out the hairpin casually, her eyes fell on this extremely ordinary hairpin, the carved butterfly swaying and swinging.

It's like flying.

But he couldn't fly.

His daughter also fell in love with Li Chenan.

But Li Chenan may never be able to come out again.

After a bit of lovesickness, a few people can get sweet.

The infatuated people in the world will eventually end up with a ripple of tears.

"If Hua Lao is going back to Ningguo, please ...... this hairpin Give it back to him. ”
