The sun was shining at noon.

In the secluded courtyard, no one is swinging.

There is a small spring in the southeast corner of the courtyard, which continuously emits the sound of "ding dong ding dong", emitting a hazy mist like a light veil, which seems to be a rare hot spring water, which is very rare in this slightly cold autumn day.

The autumn wind swept the fallen leaves on the bluestone slabs, and although the spring was surrounded by pebbles in a small circle, there were still brave flying leaves in the air from time to time, floating on the warm water, like a small boat riding the wind and waves......

The sound of the subtle spring water echoes and amplifies, making the atmosphere in the courtyard even more quiet.

The orchid fragrance after the beauty comes out of the bath is entangled with the dipterocarp in the bottle, and it is difficult for the autumn wind to blow them away.

And in front of a certain table, two figures standing side by side are the same, and the autumn wind can't blow away.

Two figures, a man and a woman.

Handsome men and beautiful women.

All are slender.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, where nutrition was generally insufficient, the two of them were considered to be long or tall.

If there are outsiders present at this time, and you see the tall young man and the tall and beautiful woman side by side at the table from a distance, you will envy the sentence "beautiful people become a pair", a pair made in heaven......

Perhaps it was Ouyang Rong's clumsy and rusty technique of arranging vases, and the two people standing at the table gently bumped their shoulders from time to time.

Bumping, bumping, a tall and beautiful woman moved aside, separated by a little distance.

When the young man noticed it, he quietly took a step in her direction.

Shoulder to shoulder again, the two of them clinging.

She moved again, he made it up, she moved again, he still made up......

In the end, the tall and beautiful woman was squeezed to the far right edge of the table by the tall young man, and there was no way to retreat, so annoyed that she turned her head and glared at him fiercely, as if she was angry and slammed him on the shoulder......

The eldest young man suddenly fell to the ground, frightened the tall beauty immediately dropped the vase, squatted on the ground to help him, full of concern, but after she pulled him to stand up in her hug, she saw a blinking "hip face" in a blink of an eye, and she was still alive, she was angry and her silver teeth clenched, pushed him away, and turned her head to ignore the liar anymore.

But this wrongdoer continued to arrange vases of flowers like kraft candy, and at the same time his body continued to come up unrelentingly, firmly clinging to her shoulders, and the red rope clogs couldn't drive away from his instep, and this cheeky enemy even leaned his nose over and sniffed, as if he liked the orchid fragrance after bathing in her neck...... It's infuriating and funny.

In the end, Xie Lingjiang could only compromise slightly, let him stand close to his shoulder, and bumped her from time to time, she was not far behind, and bumped his shoulder again and again, so the two of them were angry and naïve, and a little ...... Tacit understanding.

It's just that Xie Lingjiang's pretty face, I don't know if it's a normal reaction of the skin being steamed white and red after bathing, or what's going on, her white skin is faintly covered with a faint layer of rouge, some like the pink of plum blossoms in early winter, which is very good-looking.

provoked Ouyang Rong's eyes next to him frequently, looking left and right.

"Look at beating you again."

Xie Lingjiang showed two small tiger teeth.

"Don't let you look good, right, don't look so good if you have the ability."

"Don't look at it."

"I don't have the skills."

“……”

Ouyang Rong grinned, causing Xie Ling Jiang Xiang to hit him on the shoulder:

"Originally, the maid helped me to arrange a vase of flowers, but I came to the door halfway, so I had to let them retreat, you compensate me, honestly help me to arrange chrysanthemums, and I should enjoy chrysanthemums in autumn, I have to prepare a few, go back to appreciate the chrysanthemum banquet and bring it over, and make an appointment with Sister Qin and Sister Bao'er."

"No, I'm here, why do you want them to step down?" Someone knowingly asked, "What is the little sister trying to do to me?" ”

She had a little itchy teeth: "Ru Lianghu? ”

Ouyang Rong nodded unyieldingly.

"Phew, shameless."

"Then I'll come early next time."

"If you come early today, I won't open the door for you, think beautifully."

"Why is that?"

"It's useless for the senior brother to pretend to be stupid, wait a while to help me post the books, there are still some books in the room, and the maid is halfway there, stop, you accompany me in the afternoon, finish it honestly, do you hear."

Ouyang Rong glanced at the courtyard silently and looked around.

Sure enough, there are a lot of rare books spread out on the ground, and there are also a few familiar oil-paper umbrellas, which have been carefully opened and placed on the ground, basking in the sun, and the poetry and love words on the umbrella surface can be faintly seen.

It was the love umbrella that Ouyang Rong gave to Xie Lingjiang at the beginning.

Today's sunshine is good, it is a rare sunny day in autumn, the little sister should be bathed in incense, and the maid together, some books and objects in her boudoir are taken out one by one, basking in the sun, removing moisture and moisture.

Jiangzhou belongs to the south of the Yangtze River, Xunyang is close to the river, the humidity is still quite heavy, and the little sister is careful.

"Little junior sister, what are these words, I don't need you to say it, I was going to accompany you in the afternoon, otherwise why would I come here, you see, I bought all the chrysanthemum wine, and when I finish planting a bottle of flowers, let's have a few sips."

"Oh, I hope it's not someone who is afraid that my aunt will come to Xunyang for random spot checks, so I obediently come over and step on it regularly, well, I can't see safety, I don't have a sense of urgency for the time being, and I'm going to slip away at any time, but I'm used to it."

"Ahem, little junior sister, what are these words, looking at people in the cracks of the door and flattening people, it will be impossible today."

"It's up to you to behave."

"After inserting this chrysanthemum, what are you going to do next, you say, what the maid didn't finish just now, I'll help you do it."

"Dry the book first, then ......"

"And then dry rice?"

"Then the thrush touches up."

“……”

"What, not happy?"

"Happy, it's too late to be happy."

"Duplicity, reluctance, forget it, I'm here to teach you."

"Willing, willing, truthful, ahem, thrush I'm the best at it."

"Have you ever painted for other women? Vila? The tone was suspicious.

"No, just casually."

"Someone can't be saved."

"Really no, cough cough, the chrysanthemums are finished, and the books are dry, where is your study......"

"Wait, come back."

"What."

"Your stomach is growling, you haven't eaten lunch?"

"I don't think so, didn't I come to you for a drink, thinking about eating something together?"

"Why didn't you say it earlier, but now I have some faith in you. I've eaten it, you...... Wait, don't be stupid to go to the sun, I'll make you something to eat, and then I'll do it when I'm full......"

"It's easy to fall asleep when you're full."

"Then sleep, I'll accompany you."

"Little junior sister is so good today."

"Yesterday, the day before yesterday was big, and the day before yesterday was not good, right?"

"Okay, good, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be good."

"Virtue."

Xie Lingjiang put the vase of chrysanthemums planted in it, and turned to the back kitchen.

Ouyang Rong had nothing to do, didn't wait for her, went to the study to take out the remaining books, returned to the courtyard, and dried them on the bamboo mat one by one, with neat movements.

After finishing, seeing that the little junior sister hadn't made any good food, he wandered around, passing by the small hot spring in the southeast corner, and he looked at it curiously.

The water looks pretty clean...... I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows slightly.

After a while, Ouyang Rong walked into the kitchen and saw Xie Lingjiang's graceful back in front of the stove.

This white dress like pajamas after bathing brings out the tall figure.

Ouyang Rong suddenly felt that in addition to the canteen of his future son, the hips and crotches of the little junior sister were also not inferior to many plump wives and women, and the arc sign was attractive, but because of a pair of long legs, coupled with men's clothes on weekdays, it somewhat covered up this wonder.

Ouyang Rong stepped forward, stuck it up, hugged the waist of the beautiful woman who was making food in front of the stove from behind, and rested his chin on her smooth Xiaoxue shoulder.

"What are you doing?"

He glanced down at the stove and found that it was some fruit on the plate, pomegranates, pears, and autumn oranges, and the little sister was bowing her head, carefully cutting out the finely chopped flesh with a kitchen knife, and putting all of them on the plate, and then took out a small jar with fine sugar frosting, plum brine, and perilla seeds, scooped a spoonful from time to time, and mixed it into the fruit bowl.

It's a bit like a fruit salad.

"This dim sum is called Chunlan Qiuju, newly learned, you can try it."

Xie Lingjiang's eyes curled.

Ouyang Rong nodded, and quietly glanced at the "Chunlan Qiuju" on the plate.

Since he said so, even if it was a dark dish, he would have to laugh and eat it all.

Xie Lingjiang suddenly turned his head, and his white forehead lightly touched his slightly lowered head: "What do you think?" ”

"It's nothing, be careful, don't cut your fingers."

"Don't worry about my sword skills?"

As she spoke, she was still very ladylike a second ago, and suddenly her white and tender little hand flipped over, and a kitchen knife spun and flew, almost becoming a phantom, so easy as a hand.

Ouyang Rong was helpless: "Xinxin, be careful, don't fly in my face." ”

"Just fly, fly."

"Then someone will have to stay alive."

"That'...... Won't you be able to eat a feast? ”

“……？？” Ouyang Rong.

Facing the playful eyes of the little junior sister tilting his head and glancing at him, he was a little overwhelmed and hurriedly diverted the topic:

"By the way, you have been accompanying Qin Xiaoniang recently, what is the progress of her and Da Lang now?"

"It's still like that."

"What's that?"

"The closest distance between walks is three fists, and I haven't touched my hands yet."

"Isn't it like a normal friend?"

"Hmm."

"It's almost ten years, why is it so slow." Ouyang Rong touched his chin and couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that they are talking about a very new kind of love?" ”

"yes, it's too slow. I don't know if it's new or not, but it's definitely time-consuming, and we can't wait for that day. Xie Lingjiang nodded in agreement: "If Da Lang has half the strength of the senior brother, the uncle and aunt will be married by now." It would be nice if the elder brother was on it, you said yes or no. ”

"That's right, Da Lang, Da Lang, it seems that you have to turn around and get rid of him......" Ouyang Rong stuck: "Wait, what do you mean to have half of my strength, what skills do I have, don't talk nonsense, I'll do it." ”

"Hmph. The more I think about it now, the more I feel that you were not honest before, and you just deceived me for being innocent and ignorant. ”

"Come, little junior sister, please touch your conscience here and speak, is it a little inappropriate to use the word innocence and ignorance on you?"

"Phew, take your hands away, I'll cut something, be careful that the knife flies out and cut someone's big pig's trotters."

Ouyang Rong took advantage of the situation to pinch it, withdrew his hand, rubbed his face, and looked at the little junior sister's virtuous cooking knife skills, he sighed softly.

"Got something to worry about?" She raised her little finger behind her ear and asked gently.

Ouyang Rong thought about it for a while, and roughly talked about what he said to Lu Jian not long ago.

Xie Lingjiang immediately put down the kitchen knife and frowned and looked back: "Senior brother suddenly asked Lu Jian what happened to the talisman?" ”

Ouyang Rong thought about it, silently took out a copy of "True Message" from his sleeve, and threw it next to the kitchen knife on the cutting board.

Xie Lingjiang was stunned at first, and then his eyes widened: "The core exercises of the Shangqing Sect? Wait, isn't there a Shangqing peerless ...... in it?"

Ouyang Rong nodded and talked about the matter of the frivolous Taoist priest in general.

"You...... Why didn't you say it earlier. Her eyes widened.

"On the night of Dagu Mountain, I solved the frivolous Taoist priest with my hands, I suspected that Sanqing was betting on both sides, for fear of revealing the feud, and you and the teacher, and Sanqing's personal relationship looked good, and it was also the palace that you introduced to the palace, I was afraid that you would be caught in the middle and difficult to be a person, so I pressed the table, I wanted to see Sanqing's follow-up performance, and see if I needed to pretend to be stupid...... "True Message" didn't mention it, and I didn't think that it would be practiced in a blink of an eye."

"It's not allowed to be like this in the future...... Wait, Senior Brother can cultivate it? Xie Lingjiang reacted, his expression was incredulous, and he looked at the somewhat unfamiliar ...... in front of him again Brother Demon.

Ouyang Rong said calmly: "My vein is a little special. ”

After a pause, he sighed:

"Mainly today, I learned the ins and outs from Lu Press. It turned out that the frivolous Taoist priest had a broken relationship with the Shangqing Sect, and Old Heavenly Master Yuan was gone again, so I was relieved. ”

"Senior brother's question today is too straightforward, Lu Jian may be suspicious, so he has to take precautions."

Xie Lingjiang didn't blame him for hiding it for many days, but frowned, quickly substituted it, and thought about it for him wholeheartedly:

"I'm going to look for him at night, and I'm going to think about how to help you talk, well, I have to make him think that I mentioned it to you, so you are curious to ask...... It is said that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and I have to find a reason for you. ”

He originally wanted to say that there was no need to be so troublesome, Lu Jian knew, and it was a big deal to return this "True Message" that had been memorized silently, and talk about manslaughter, anyway, Lu Pressure and Shangqing Sect couldn't think of people who were not Taoist Daoists, and they could practice the core exercises of the Patriarch Hall and Shangqing Peerless.

But looking at the cute frowning appearance of the beautiful woman in his arms who was wholeheartedly thinking of ideas for him, Ouyang Rong paused, suddenly lowered his head, and pecked the beauty on the forehead.

Xie Lingjiang pushed him down with a disgusted expression, and said with disgust: "Talking about business, there is no ...... all day long."

Ouyang Rong made a blank face and hugged her strongly.

At the same time, raise a palm.

"Smack——!

There was a crisp sound in front of the stove, and somewhere the powder buttocks trembled, and he used his might:

"Cook first, we'll talk later. starved to death, the little lady will not serve it again, and the king will eat you hungry first. ”

“……”

Xie Lingjiang "brushed" his face red.

There is no sound in front of the stove, for fear that the air will suddenly be quiet......
