Section 317 Worries (2)
Walked along the fence by the river for a while. Yueqing sighed again.
Stopped, leaned on the railing, pulled off a petal, and threw it into the water, the flower in her hand no longer had a few petals. After watching the petals drift for a while, he simply threw the whole flower in his hand.
A tender green willow branch stretched out beside it.
Yueqing turned her head to look and saw Mo Xue holding the willow branch and reaching out to her.
Yueqing smiled, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Seeing that the petals in the young lady's hand are gone, I handed over a new branch, but unfortunately there are no big flowers here, so I can only replace them with willow branches."
Yueqing smiled, and the willow branch shook it twice.
"Let people see you folding flowers and plants, and it will damage your image."
"What image can Mo Xue have?"
"Humble son, gentle and reasonable, how can this kind of person fold flowers and plants?"
Mo Xue smiled, "Miss really thinks highly of me. ”
"That is, any of us can break flowers and plants, and Mo Xue is the most unlikely of you."
Mo Xue smiled softly and did not refute her. "Mademoiselle sighs more today than ever."
Yueqing tugged at the corners of her mouth, turned to look at the river again.
"Miss is unhappy, it must be because of the words of the Seventh Elder, but because of the matter of the leyline altar? Did the Seventh Elder tell the young lady all about this altar? Mo Xue guessed that the Seven Elders must also say that the master of the Peony Courtyard was the spirit girl who guarded the altar. ”
Yueqing said, "Isn't this a secret of the villa?" Why do you keep asking? ”
"It's true that it's a secret of the villa, but it affects the mood of the young lady, so we can't ignore it."
"How? It doesn't work. I thought about it for a long time and didn't have a good way, you are not the spirit girl of the Chang family, what can you do. ”
"How does Miss know that we can't do anything, maybe Miss can tell us. Since leaving the villa with Miss, it is not the first time that Mo Xue has violated the rules of the villa. ”
Yueqing laughed. "I heard from the Seventh Elder that you called me Miss instead of the courtyard master, and reprimanded you. In other words, are you deacons not afraid of elders? ”
"It's not a matter of being afraid or afraid, now that we are by Miss's side, we have to think about things with Miss's thoughts. Maybe this matter does involve the secrecy of the villa, but now the young lady can't find anyone to discuss, right?
All of us came out with Miss to deal with this kind of problem. Miss still remembers that before leaving the villa, the great elder explained that a few of us can represent all ethnic groups and have certain rights.
Although the matter of the leyline altar was managed by the Chang clan, the elders of the mountain villa and the patriarchs of the various clans knew about it. We don't know the whole story, but we know the situation.
The young lady should know that many historical documents of the villa are kept in the ancestral hall of the Mo family, and the Mo family knows no less than the Chang family about what the villa is all about. My status in the Mo clan is not much lower than Chang Ge's status in the Chang clan. Knowing this, does the young lady think it is strange? ”
Yueqing looked at him. "You're right, the Seventh Elder told me that the Peony Courtyard is mainly going to guard the altar. If you go to that place, you can't come back, not only can't she come back, but Changzhu and all the people in the Peony Courtyard can't come back.
I asked the Seventh Elder why he treated the Spirit Girl like this, and she said that this was the duty of the Chang Clan, if there was no Spirit Girl guarding the altar, everyone in the mountain villa would be injured by a strange force underground, especially the woman of the Chang Clan, the reason why the Lord of the Wutong Courtyard was seriously ill was this reason.
As long as there is a spirit maiden guarding the altar, the situation can be improved, otherwise everyone will suffer. But the price paid by the spirit girl was her and the lives of everyone in the courtyard, and what was even more infuriating was that such a heavy price could only make the villa stable for decades. ”
After speaking, she looked at Mo Xue. "Is there anything you can do about it? Let me tell you first, only the spirit girl can do this, and no one else can do it, so you don't have to think about what other people from the five clans can do. ”
Mo Xue was silent for a while. "I see, although I know that the Chang woman is congenitally weak and sickly, I don't know that she is burdened by the people in the villa."
"The Seven Elders said it, it's not for you, the reason why they have to face this problem is because the forbidden place of the goddess is there, and the people of the Chang clan will always stay there and not go anywhere."
After speaking, Yueqing looked at Chang Yuxiao. "Chang Yuxiao, do you know? Her mother is also a woman of the Chang family, and if she returns to the villa, she will also be affected by that power, and it is a good thing for her to stay away from the villa. Do you say your mother knows about this? ”
Chang Yuxiao shook his head. "I've never heard her mention this, and since this matter involves Chang's secrets, I think she probably doesn't know."
Yueqing nodded. "I think so too, and I think that the Seventh Elder feels very sorry for her mother, although she has a bad temper and a bad tone, she really cares about the people of the Chang clan.
I can feel that she is also reluctant to let the Peony Courtyard Master go, but letting the Peony Courtyard Master guard the altar is the best way at the moment.
People with too low ability can't work, and the strong Wutong Courtyard Master is weak, and then it's me, but the Seventh Elder said that I am the hope of the Chang clan, and whoever guards it can't be my turn.
What do you say she is hoping for? ”
Yueqing turned around and looked at the two of them.
Mo Xue said: "It's probably a goddess." ”
Yueqing smiled helplessly, "But I don't want to be the hope of others, what I want to do most now is to leave here and go home to live a normal life." The Seventh Elder said, as long as the goddess is alive, there is no such thing as a spirit girl guarding the altar, Mo Xue, do you think I am responsible for this matter, just because I am the closest person to the goddess. ”
Mo Xue didn't answer her, because he didn't know what words to use to comfort her this time.
Yueqing sighed again.
"I've said everything I need to say, so yes, I said. It's useless to tell you, and there's nothing you can do to fix it. Don't worry, what I'm best at is self-regulation, and it's not going to happen tomorrow anyway, so think about it slowly. ”
Mo Xue nodded.
After being bored in the river for a while, Yueqing was a little hungry.
Back to the middle court.
Qing'er counted the landings. "Miss hasn't eaten lunch, how can there be any reason not to be hungry. Deacon Shen should be worried at this time. ”
"I don't know what he prepared, but I don't want to eat those dishes today, I want to eat hot pot."
"What is hot pot?"
"Put all kinds of meat and vegetables in a pot and cook them at once, and then everyone eats them with chopsticks. Served with sauces, it's especially delicious. Hey, Mo Xue, why don't we eat hot pot together in the middle courtyard today, this kind of thing has to be eaten by more people to be delicious. ”
"Okay, it's rare that Miss is interested."
"Mmmm, Qing'er, let's go back and tell Deacon Shen that we will have hot pot together in the evening."
"Okay."
The two returned to the courtyard and ate something at random, and Yueqing asked Deacon Shen to prepare the materials and specially explained that the mushrooms picked on the hill should be disposed of.
Yueqing also ran to the kitchen with Deacon Shen with high spirits, and watched it busily.
Chang Yuxiao stood behind her, and at this time, she couldn't tell that she was worried about the matter of the leyline altar.
After being busy for a while, he finally tossed and asked Deacon Shen to take it to the middle courtyard quickly.
Yueqing asked Qing'er to greet everyone over.
Cai'er went to Mrs. Fu's courtyard to ask Mrs., and after a while, she came back and said that she didn't want to go to such a noisy place. Yueqing was not reluctant, and asked her to bring some to Mrs.
Then he took all the people in the courtyard to the middle courtyard.
There were already several large tables in the open space of the middle courtyard, and when Yueqing came, he saw that everyone had already gathered.
Yue Ke was looking around the hot pot, and when he saw Yueqing coming over, he said: "Miss, this way of eating is really unique, this dish is put aside raw, and the way to eat what to eat is really wonderful, and looking at it like this, many ingredients can be shabu-shabu." ”
"We're so popular, are we all here? How do you feel like a few are missing. ”
Qi Jiao said: "Chang Huai is still guarding the back mountain, and Chang Bai is still in the front yard. ”
"Okay, I'll send them some later. Let's start the chopsticks and taste it, we have worked hard for a long time. ”
As she spoke, Yueqing picked up the chopsticks on the side, scooped up a slice of mushrooms and put it in her mouth. "Well, sure enough, the mushrooms I picked myself are the most fragrant. Eat it, everyone. ”
The crowd began to move their chopsticks.
Yueqing watched everyone eat and sighed in her heart.
Qing'er handed her a small bowl next to her: "Miss, Qing'er has clamped it for you, Miss, don't clip it, be careful to burn your hands." ”
Yueqing looked at her and wanted to say that she had to clip it herself to feel it, but people were also kind: "Thank you, but you also have to eat, I feel fun by myself." ”
Cai'er said: "Miss, be careful." ”
Yueqing nodded: "Well, you can eat it too." ”
Cai'er picked up the bowl.
Yueqing was satisfied, and seeing that Chang Yuxiao hadn't eaten a few bites, she hurriedly went over and gave him a lot.
"Chang Yuxiao, eat more."
Chang Yuxiao looked at the bowl in his hand: "Thank you, Miss, Miss also eat more." ”
"Well, this meat is well cut, I've already eaten quite a bit."
Yue Ke said: "It's a good cut, but the weather is hotter, if it is later." ”
"Yes, you're so right, and it's best to eat this with a particularly delicious carbonated drink, but unfortunately I don't know how to do it, otherwise it would be even more enjoyable."
"What is a carbonated drink?"
"It's a kind of bubbling water, especially delicious, especially thirst-quenching, and even better when chilled. Oh yes, and the music. ”
"Music? Miss still has to play music when you eat? ”
"I don't listen to it every time I eat, some stores will play music, and I feel good and have a good appetite."
Mo Xue smiled: "It's already strange to have to stand when eating, but I didn't expect to play music, it's really very different from here." ”
"We listen to music not only when we eat, but also when we sleep, which is called lullaby, when we are tired, when we are unhappy, and when we are bored. In short, you can listen to music at any time. ”
Mo Xue said: "Where are there so many performers. ”
"You don't need anyone to play, just record it in advance and play it on your mobile phone, stereo, and TV, and those who listen to people play are the work of rich people."
"I see."
"By the way, did I bring that kite?"
Qing'er said: "I brought it, and I put it in the courtyard." ”
"Didn't I say I could play too? I haven't played it for you yet, let you listen to it today, Qing'er will help me get it. ”
Qing'er answered the call to get it.
The crowd looked at each other.
Yue Ke smiled: "It's really a blessing today, I can hear the music played by Miss, but it's a pity that Yue Chi is not there." ”
Yueqing said: "I'm not a professional, I just learned some business, and I can't play well, so don't laugh at me." ”
Qi Jiao said: "Miss, don't worry, no one dares to laugh." ”
After a while, Qing'er came, Chang Shen had already set up a seat on the side, and Qing'er put the zither on the table.
Yueqing quickly finished eating the contents of the bowl, handed the bowl to Cai'er, wiped her mouth and hands with the handkerchief handed by Cai'er, and sat in front of the zither.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him: "You eat yours first, I'll debug it first." I didn't move for a long time, and I forgot a little. ”
After speaking, Yueqing tried a few notes and found some feelings.
Then she played a cheerful blue bird, and everyone looked at her.
After curling, Yueqing raised her head.
Yue Ke said for the first time: "Wonderful, this song is very wonderful." ”
Yueqing said: "If you play well, you have to applaud, like this." As he spoke, he took the lead in clapping.
Yue Ke was the first to react and applauded, and there was a round of applause in the courtyard.
Yueqing stood in front of the zither and smirked.
