Chapter 166: Long Time No See
On earth, four years later.
In the courtyard, the fragrance of flowers is pleasant, the fragrance of flowers is everywhere, the trees are lush, and many colorful butterflies are dancing among the flowers with their wings.
"Young master, you go slowly!" Qiaoyu shouted anxiously behind the little kid who was still walking and had a butterfly trap in his hand.
The butterfly fluttered its wings in the net, struggling, but he didn't stop. Instead, he took the butterfly in his hand to show off to his mother.
"Mother, mother, look at it, the butterfly in my hand is not beautiful." Xiao'er went to show Bai Qiuyue the butterfly in his hand as if he were invited.
Bai Qiuyue watched him take out a butterfly from his net pocket, and the butterfly fluttered its wings and struggled in pain.
Bai Qiuyue told Xiao'er bitterly: "Xiao'er, butterflies are like people, if they are caught, they will be very sad." If I catch you with my hand, it won't hurt you! She pretended to pinch Xiao'er's fleshy arm.
"Yes," Xiao'er thought seriously, and said to Bai Qiuyue in a milky voice: "Then I'll listen to my mother's words and let the butterflies go......"
And the butterfly flew away in Xiao'er's hands. And Xiao'er watched the butterfly fly away, looking up very happily, his eyes were innocent, and when he was happy, he showed a few teeth and laughed like a silver bell.
Bai Qiuyue smiled and touched Xiao'er's fleshy face, Xiao'er's eyebrows were very thick, her eyes were big, and she looked like his father, and at this moment she was embroidering a shirt, which was made for Xiao'er.
Seeing that Xiao'er was really so obedient and let the butterfly go, Bai Qiuyue said to Xiao'er: "Xiao'er, you are so good!" To reward you, I embroidered a butterfly on the shirt I embroidered for you! This way the butterflies will stay on your clothes. ”
"Really? Mother! Xiao'er looked very happy, his eyes were bright and clear, as if there was a spring water, he was different from other children, he was a child who liked to explore new things.
Not to mention that there are many Tang poems in 300 poems, and even the extremely difficult nine-chain toy he quickly unraveled, and the toy was given to him by his mute uncle.
And he often goes to the Jiahui County Lord's Mansion, so he always meets a dumb uncle, and the Jiahui County Lord has always liked Xiao'er very much, in the past few years, it is indispensable to take care of him, his favorite food is the lactose given to him by the Jiahui County Lord, and the Jiahui County Lord also deliberately found someone to make a few more for him to eat.
And Bai Qiuyue smiled and joked to Jiahui County: "This child's teeth haven't grown yet, if he eats lactose, how good is his teeth." ”
And the county lord of Jiahui said, it doesn't matter, his eyes are full of love for this child.
At this moment, Xiao'er took out a wood carving from her arms, and said innocently: "Mother, look at this wooden statue is not like me?" ”
Bai Qiuyue saw the wood carving, the wood carving was a very cute villain, chubby, and the same as Xiao'er! She looked at this very delicate wood carving, and knew who gave it to him, and said with a smile: "It's a toy given to you by Uncle Liao again?" ”
And Xiao'er has been very curious since he saw Liu Yanxi at the county lord of Jiahui one day, he doesn't know why this uncle is wearing a mask, and the difference between that uncle and others is that he can't speak, and Xiao'er asked Bai Qiuyue innocently: "Why can't he speak?" ”
Later, Xiao'er also inadvertently heard that he was a mute from the maid of Jiahui County, so he called him Uncle Dumb, and later Bai Qiuyue corrected him and called him Uncle Liao, but he couldn't change it, so he called him Uncle Dumb.
And Liu Yanxi was also very good to him, always teaching him to draw simple paintings on the ground with tree branches, and always holding him to see the ducks and fish in the river.
And Xiao'er also has a very cordial feeling for Liu Yanxi, and he will also take his own toys for Liu Yanxi to play.
Liu Yanxi also gave him a nine-link link, Xiao'er couldn't put it down, and every day he pondered how to untie this nine-link, what made people feel surprising was that Xiao'er had such a ability, and this nine-link was untied in his hand!
Xiao'er's intelligence and intelligence since she was a child made Bai Qiuyue happy.
And now he is interested in showing this wood carving to Bai Qiuyue, Bai Qiuyue carefully looked at this wood carving, and found that this wood carving is very beautiful, it is a very cute little doll, and Xiao'er's appearance is somewhat similar, it seems that Liu Yanxi himself carved it according to Xiao'er's appearance.
And in recent years, he has rarely talked to Liu Yanxi, usually when he sees him in the Jiahui County Lord's Mansion, he simply takes a look at him, and in recent years, Liu Yanxi has been dealing with flowers and plants every day, he likes flowers and plants very much, every time he sees him, he is hoeing weeds, or trimming the dodder on the flowers.
Not everyone is suitable for this job, such as Bai Qiuyue herself, she is not suitable for this job, because looking at a lot of weeds, she will be very bored, and this weed can not be removed every day, and there are many kinds of flowers in this garden of the lord of Jiahui, especially in the season when the flowers are becoming more and more charming, it is even more irritable.
But Liu Yanxi's heart is very good, unhurried, slowly and leisurely take care of these flowers and plants, from morning to night to do these things, Jiahui County Lord praised him more than once for being a very careful person. This garden is carefully tended by Liu Yanxi every day, and it is very pleasing to the eye.
The stone paths in this garden are also designed by Liu Yanxi, these stones are the pebbles he picked himself, and they are paved one by one, paving into a winding road, exuding a moving brilliance in the sun.
Bai Qiuyue looked at the wood carving in Xiao'er's hand, and saw that there was a small button at the bottom of this wood carving, she found this button, and felt very curious, and pressed this button, and the bottom of this was actually opened, and there was a small note inside.
This is really a good idea, Bai Qiuyue looked at this note, and opened it curiously, but saw that it was Liu Yanxi's handwriting, which read: "Can you get together, I recently got a new score on the Jiahui County Lord's Mansion, and I want to invite you to listen to the tune." ”
Bai Qiuyue read Liu Yanxi's note and was shocked. He had a good idea, and he actually conveyed the meaning to her through this toy, and he also wanted to thank him for taking care of his children over the years. The toys are also made by him for his children, and he has a heart.
Bai Qiuyue received his invitation, and she didn't want to go, so she went to Liu Yanxi's hut, and asked Qiaoyu to stay in the mansion to take good care of her children. And she didn't know that Hua Chen saw it behind her.
Bai Qiuyue came to Liu Yanxi's hut, that hut she had been to before, very similar to her own Qiuyue Xiaozhu, very close to her Qiuyue Xiaozhu, not very gorgeous but very simple and quiet style.
Liu Yanxi saw Bai Qiuyue coming, so he let Bai Qiuyue sit aside, and Liu Yanxi's room was burning incense, this kind of incense was a very good smell, Liu Yanxi told Bai Qiuyue that his new song was "Ni Dress", "Ni Dress" This song Bai Qiuyue has always heard of, and he got the score and wanted to play it, Bai Qiuyue was naturally very happy.
And she quietly listened to the willow gradually let this moving tune accompanied by the fragrance of incense, the melody is brisk and there is a sense of agility, and the gentle place seems to be telling a beautiful story, it is very beautiful, this tune is different from "Yangchun White Snow", this tune sounds gorgeous, not like it is close to the breath of life, but there is a bit of gorgeous color, it is the feeling of the palace tune, magnificent and gorgeous.
And Liu Yanxi's technique of playing the piano became more and more proficient, and Bai Qiuyue listened quietly, fascinated.
After the song is over, Bai Qiuyue is still unfinished. couldn't help but applaud, saying that Liu Yanxi's music skills are getting better and better, and listening to him play is simply a pleasure.
And Liu Yanxi smiled and said to Bai Qiuyue: "You can also try to play according to the piano score." ”
Bai Qiuyue took the piano score that Liu Yanxi gave her and tried to play it, but Liu Yanxi was close to Bai Qiuyue at this time, he paid attention to keeping a distance from her, but with this curling smoke, it was indeed very ambiguous. Bai Qiuyue was very uncomfortable, and Liu Yanxi warned her: "Look at the piano score and focus on it." ”
His hand touched Bai Qiuyue's hand, he was very close to Bai Qiuyue, he taught Bai Qiuyue to play this tune again, and the good smell emanating from his hair and body filled the tip of Bai Qiuyue's nose with this incense.
Although Bai Qiuyue looked at playing the piano, she was actually very flustered in her heart, and after Liu Yanxi taught him to play this song again, she consciously let go of her hand and smiled slightly: "You seem to be very afraid of me, what, are you afraid that I will plot against you?" ”
"It's not ......" Bai Qiuyue was speechless for a while, and she told Liu Yanxi the purpose of her coming here: "I just came to thank you, you know, I have been busy with my career and taking care of my children all these years, and I don't have time to talk to my friends, and I saw that you invited me to come, so I didn't shirk and came, I know, you have always been very good to my child, my child likes you very much... :”
Liu Yanxi smiled, he felt that Bai Qiuyue was so angry every time she talked to him, as if she had organized her language in advance, but seeing that she was a little nervous and a little at a loss, he thought it was very cute, "I know, I just suddenly remembered today that I haven't talked to you all these years, and I want to catch up with my old friends." ”
"I understand." Bai Qiuyue also replied.
And Bai Qiuyue saw some wood carvings on Liu Yanxi's table, and she looked at these wood carvings with interest, these wood carvings are very beautiful, and the most eye-catching thing is the wood carving of a woman, and the wood carving looks like a ...... Himself, the eyebrows and eyes of this wood-carved woman are somewhat similar to herself.
However, Bai Qiuyue didn't say what she thought in her heart, she just praised: "I have always admired you, you know a lot of things, even the carving, it is so beautiful." ”
"This is just my leisure time to kill time, and these wood carvings, I can carve how I want, this wood carving looks like a thing, but it is actually love." Liu Yanxi said with a smile, and his hand held the wood carving that looked like Bai Qiuyue and looked at it, "Look at this wood carving that looks like you~"
He deliberately said this to Bai Qiuyue, I don't know if it was choking on the smoke, or if he was a little flustered for a while after listening to his words, Bai Qiuyue's throat was dry and she coughed a few times.
At this time, I heard footsteps outside the window, and when I opened the door, I saw Hua Chen admiring the flowers outside the window, which actually seemed unintentional, but it was actually intentional.
Bai Qiuyue knew that Hua Chen had always been thoughtful, and Hua Chen glanced at Bai Qiuyue and Liu Yanxi, and she was a little suspicious, and she looked at the incense burning in the house, and listened to the sound of the piano in the house, if she didn't know her, it would be impossible to burn incense and listen to the piano, this kind of friendship must be extraordinary!
"Aunt Bai, do you know the consequences of your private meeting with a strange man? If the general knew, he wouldn't spare you! Hua Chen's personality has always been very serious and cautious, she naturally won't warn her in a good voice when she sees the scene in front of her, and she has always been dedicated to General Shao, if Bai Qiuyue did something to betray Shao Yifei, she would not be able to easily forgive her behavior.
And Bai Qiuyue knew that Hua Chen was suspicious, so Bai Qiuyue explained to Hua Chen: "Hua Chen, you listen to me. It's not what you think, he and I are just ordinary friends, can't you believe me? ”
Hua Chen looked at Bai Qiuyue's sincere, not like a deceitful gaze, and calmed down for a while, she knew that this was not like a lie, she looked at this man coldly, she wanted to see this man's reaction, she saw with her own eyes the note he wrote to Bai Qiuyue, which said to invite her and stroke the piano for her.
And if it's not an ordinary emotion, will you want to stroke the piano for her?
And Hua Chen carefully looked at Liu Yanxi's appearance, and so on...... Except for an extra scar on the corner of his right eye, how can he look so familiar? How can he feel so familiar to himself...... Could it be? He is?
But Liu Yanxi's gaze at Huachen was very complicated, a little soft, a little stunned, and a little moved.
And Bai Qiuyue hadn't realized anything yet, at this time, Liu Yanxi's words made Hua Chen's eyes flutter suddenly: "Fangchen, long time no see~"
And his words confirmed what Hua Chen thought, Hua Chen's attitude softened suddenly, and she also called softly: "Brother Gradual~"
When two people reunite after a long absence, what kind of scene will it be for people who have had deep friendships in the past to meet again? This scene happened in front of Bai Qiuyue, Bai Qiuyue was also moved by the two of them, and she also remembered that Hua Chen told her about her life experience, her sister was Dai Xu, that woman, was the woman that Liu Yanxi loved in the past.
"At that time you were a child, not that tall, you loved to laugh at that time, and you were innocent!" And when Liu Yanxi said this, he was a little speechless and stopped, his expression was awe-inspiring, if he didn't identify it carefully, he couldn't see that the little girl had changed so much.
Hua Chen's expression dimmed, and she just sighed: "People will always become when they grow up!" ”
"Well, the eighteenth change of the female college." Liu Yanxi also sighed, in order to hide his inner feelings, he praised again: "But when I grow up, I look better than when I was a child." ”
And Liu Yanxi knew that it was that man who changed her! Originally, she was supposed to be a lively character! Liu Yanxi sighed in his heart, blaming this fate for making people. However, he didn't want the atmosphere of reunion after a long absence to become sad, and he was naturally very happy to see the old man, and this joy was lost for a long time.
And he also wanted the long-lost time to become warmer, so he smiled and said: "Happy today, let's have a meal together, let's have a good chat!" I'll go grocery shopping, and you guys stay in my house. ”
Liu Yanxi revealed his hearty side, the way he laughed was very rare, smiling so happily, Bai Qiuyue was the first time he had seen it. She also knew that the years had caused this man a lot of pain, and he probably didn't know when he had laughed so heartily.
