Like a gust of wind blowing, they neatly take away the noise, and the silence falls again around. If it weren't for the lingering fragrance in the wind, I would have thought it was a dream. I vaguely felt in my heart that this scene seemed familiar, but there was no way to verify it.

It's dreamlike and trance-like.

It wasn't until the fat parrot pecked my palm that I came back to my senses.

Just a short moment ago, the few melon seeds in his hand were peeled by it again. When it saw that it woke me up, it turned its head to look at the food box containing melon seeds, which seemed to mean "come again"! So I picked out a few melon seeds from the jar and fed them in the palm of my hand as before. When the last melon seed in the palm of my hand was swallowed, the pair of shiny black beans stared at me again.

I was amazed at its shrewdness: "Still?" No......"

If I had clairvoyance, I might have seen that the fat bird in front of me contained a human soul......

I put the tips of my fingers together to make a triangular tower shape, and the index fingers and thumbs of both hands are interlocked in a circle, and the two circles overlap to form an "eye", and then I look at it through this "eye".

Well, I don't have clairvoyance, I can't see anything.

I let go and laughed at myself for being stupid, and pinched the melon seeds again.

"Who are you?" Suddenly, a question came from behind him. I jerked my head back at the sound and met a pair of flying eyes that looked at me coldly.

The young master of the law family was standing behind me, he was clearly ...... just now

I hurriedly straightened my posture - my hands were naturally clenched, and my chin was bowed: "I am Mu Xuezhou." ”

"Pastoral Prefecture?" He muttered and repeated, his eyebrows instantly tightened, "You are from Licheng, Mu Rusheng's daughter?" ”

"Yes."

He seemed disappointed to learn who I was, and he muttered, "I'm really ......"

He examined me a few times, his gaze a little colder than before, and finally, he frowned and admonished, "Who allowed you to feed the professor?" ”

I was stunned by the rebuke, and after a slight pause, it dawned on me that the "professor" he was referring to should be the parrot's name.

Ah, can't you feed it?

"I'm sorry." I apologized, and at the same time, I couldn't help but have an itchy throat and coughed a few times while holding the mask on my face.

He sneered: "It's up to you, and you're worthy of taking the things of the law family?" You'd better think about whether your neck is hard enough to carry it! ”

I lowered my head and saw that I was still holding a few white melon seeds in my palm, so I silently put the white melon seeds back in the food box and said, "I'll go back."

Him: "......"

He squinted, looked at me again, and finally left with a cold snort.

I packed up the food box and prepared to leave, and I felt that the back of my head was hot, and when I turned around, sure enough, there was a curious baby standing behind me, it was the young man in white who came with Lu Zhaochuan, Qingqing seemed to call him "Young Master Ning". I saw him with his round eyes open, hiding behind a pot of spring feathers and secretly observing me, because I suddenly turned around, and he was startled, and he hung his head in panic, pretending to admire the pot of lush greenery in front of him.

Of course, I know how scary my "looking back" is.

"You have a question for me?" I opened my mouth directly.

He was stunned, slowly walked out of the cover of spring feathers, and walked in front of me: "Why do you ask that?" ”

"I'm scary, you're scared, but you won't leave."

Hearing this, he said: "I'm not afraid, just now, I thought I was seeing an old friend I hadn't seen for a long time...... I'm sorry, I was mistaken. It didn't look like he made it up, and when he finished speaking, a look of memory appeared on his face.

I compared my big swollen face: "I hope it didn't ruin your memories." ”

He laughed heartily when he heard this, and stretched out his hand to me: "I'm Su Weining." ”

I hesitated a little, but finally caught him: "Mu Xuezhou." ”

We had just finished introducing each other, Secretary Gao came, she greeted Su Weining first, and then warmly invited him to sit in the living room. It turned out that Secretary Gao also had a warm spring. Su Weining replied with a smile: "Okay, Aunt Gao, I'm not an outsider, you don't have to greet me, I'll wait for him in the Lizhaochuan house." ”

After Su Weining walked away completely, Secretary Gao immediately switched back to the usual mode: "Mr. Lu called you." ”

"Oh." I promised to raise my legs to prepare, but Secretary Gao opened her hand to stop me, and she frowned: "You are dressed like this to see Mr.?" ”

I wore old clothes that I brought from home. Freshly washed hemp dresses are soft and breathable, just right for summer. I love it and often wear it in Licheng.

Me: "What's wrong with the clothes?" ”

Secretary Gao seemed to be forbearing: "There are new clothes in the closet." ”

I wondered, "...... Those aren't my clothes. ”

"That's your clothes!" Secretary Gao's voice suddenly became a few degrees colder: "Do you want to use this uncooperative attitude to tell Mr. Lu that we can't take good care of us?" ”

“……”

"If Miss Selangor is dissatisfied with us, you can just say it, and you don't have to make such a twist and turn to complain!" Secretary Gao was aggressive, and in a daze, I had already taken several steps backwards.

"I see." I say.

The wardrobe of the new bedroom is full of new clothes for the season, and you can smoke one at hand, either with rhinestones or dark beads, each of which is extremely luxurious. I didn't dare to keep Mr. Lil waiting, so I neatly took off my mask and necklace and put them in a drawer, and quickly picked out the simplest white dress from the wardrobe and changed it into. Even the simplest of them has a circle of delicate embroidery at the corners, and the craftsmanship alone declares it expensive.

This time, it was Secretary Gao who led the way, and after turning a few corridors, I arrived at the law firm's study. Before they could get close enough, they heard a quarrel in the study, and two unpleasant voices were colliding with each other.

"It's ridiculous, do I look like a garbage storage bag, all the bits and pieces? Father's amorous debts, why should I clean them up! ”

Mr. Lil: "Presumptuous, who connived at your lawlessness here!" ”

Mr. Ritsu's voice is completely different from yesterday......

Father and son are arguing?!

Is it appropriate to rush into the battlefield at such a tense moment? I was hesitating and thinking, but Secretary Gao had already ripped open the sliding door. So straightforward?! - Secretary Gao used a cold report: "Mr. Lil, Miss Selangor is here." ”

There was a little silence inside, and then I heard Mr. Lil's voice suppressing his breath: "Please come in." With Mr. Ritsu's permission, I entered the study tremblingly. Mr. Ritsu sat in front of the tea house, while his only son, Ritsu Terukawa, stood with his hands in front of the window.

Sure enough, Mr. Lu was also frightened by my face, and I hurriedly explained: "Uncle Lu, don't worry, this is an old problem, I have already taken medicine." After listening to my explanation, Mr. Ritsu breathed a sigh of relief.

He introduced me to Lu Zhaochuan: "Lu Zhaochuan, this is Uncle Mu's daughter Mu Xuezhou, in the future, she will be a member of the Lu family, you have to be called 'sister'." ”

Mr. Ritsu calls his only son by his first name.

I was as good as I was: "Hello, brother. ”

"Brother?" Ritsu Zhaochuan repeated what I said in a strange tone, as if listening to a big joke, laughing wildly, he raised his finger and tapped the corner of his eye, "If you want to be my sister, she is not worthy." ”

His obedience ignited Mr. Ritsu's anger again: "Ritsu Zhaochuan, what kind of attitude do you have!" ”

"That's the attitude."

"You ......" Mr. Ritsu froze, and he held his chest and frowned, as if in pain.

I hurriedly said, "Uncle Lu, just now, we met in the lobby and said hello." ”

Mr. Lu took a deep breath and adjusted his breath, he said politely: "You just came to Beijing, you haven't shopped yet, let him accompany you around." ”

Let him accompany? How dare I!

I waved my hand again and again: "It's okay, I'm okay." ”

Ritsu Zhaochuan's cold eyes were horizontal, and the cold air wave hit, I seemed to have a premonition of something, and took two steps back gently......

My hunch is always so accurate, but my hunch can't make me "seek good fortune and avoid evil" in time.

When I smiled and waved politely, Ritsu Zhaochuan suddenly strode towards me, he was menacing, and I was stunned for a moment. Before I could figure out what he was going to do, his right hand had accurately clasped my left wrist and pulled it in his direction, my center of gravity was unstable, and I naturally fell into his arms, his hand slid to my back and held it, and his right hand lifted my face and forced me to lift up, I looked at his dark eyes with his frightened expression, frightened face. Then, as he lowered his head, my lips felt a moist warmth......

He actually ......

After a pause for half a second, I came back to my senses and began to struggle desperately. But there is a huge disparity in our strength, and my resistance is all in vain. Finally, I raised my foot high and stomped on the surface of his foot! He relented in pain, and I took advantage of the situation to push him away, and he staggered back several steps.

Secretary Gao was so shocked by the sudden situation that she forgot to close her mouth, and the fine lines on her face seemed to be stretched out at this moment, and she was full of anger. The corners of the initiator's mouth were indifferent and curved upward, revealing wisps of chill to the bone. He didn't mean to apologize at all. Of course, he wasn't looking at me, but locked on to Mr. Ritsu with a provocative gaze, as if he was trying to track something down from Mr. Ritsu's expression.

I rubbed my lips vigorously, my eyes were dry and painful, and I couldn't care much more, so I turned around and ran. I ran out of the door and didn't take two steps before I heard "Bang! "A loud slap in the face, and the sound of cups and saucers hitting the floor......

Even I myself would be frightened by the terrible face, Ritsu Zhaochuan actually ......

He's—he's not going to be a madman!

It occurred to me that just now, the sentence he whispered to himself was- "I'm crazy......"

Overwhelmed by the sudden impact, I ran into the courtyard, into the bushes, I hid behind a few bushes, let their lush foliage hide me perfectly, and I curled up as best I could, hiding in the corner.

I muttered to myself, "It's okay, I'm safe with my friends." ”

When I first woke up from my deep sleep, I was afraid to see people. Only hide under the banana tree, listen to the wind and listen to the birdsong, watch the ants work hard, and the round four-leaf clover dance with the wind. When I was with them, I forgot about being alone and afraid.

The wind was light and the daylight was warm. This corner is like the hometown of Licheng. Leaning against the corner, slowly, I fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up, it was already yellow, and I wanted to get up, but I heard someone coming—

“…… Why did you do that in front of Mr. Lil? ”

It's Secretary Gao!

"I'm his only son, and my deviance is the last thing he can stand."

Secretary Gao and Lu Zhaochuan talked, why did you come here?

"So, you're spying on purpose?"

"I'm curious how I would react to the woman's daughter if I treated her like this......"

I'm talking about it.

Lu Zhaochuan: "It's not enough for him to be angry with my mother, but he even brought her daughter to the house, our Mr. Lu is really infatuated!" ”

"Young Master! Don't talk nonsense! ”

I raised my hand and pressed it to my chest, where it seemed to be a stone that was pressing against me, making it difficult for me to breathe.

"Young Master, you have to be considerate of Mr. ......"

Secretary Gao tried to persuade in a soft tone, but Lu Zhaochuan didn't appreciate it, and directly interrupted Secretary Gao's words: "Secretary Gao, you are still standing on my father's side." Look at it, that Mu Xuezhou, I will definitely make her worse than dead! As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a series of distant footsteps.

"Young Master, don't be impulsive!" Secretary Gao shouted, hurriedly following.

I bit my lip heavily, my hands shaking uncontrollably.

Ritsu Zhaochuan's suspicions, his hatred. I get it.

This spring, when I was drying a book in my hometown, the wind blew a piece of paper from an old book, and I opened it to read it and found that it was a letter. Although it is old, the paper has been yellowed, and the pen handwriting has been obliterated by the drip watermark, and it is no longer easy to read. But the sad words are accurately reached on paper. It was an unsent love letter, and I remember the line, "I decided to never see you again because I loved you so much." ”

The recipient is Lu Zhan's name, and the payment is Bing'er.

And I, just knew, Bing'er is my mother's nickname.

Therefore, Mr. Ritsu and my mother were once lovers......
