"Yo-this son, buy a box of rouge and give it to your beloved girl!"

Hearing this, I couldn't hold back and laughed.

Stopped, adjusted his expression, turned around, frowned slightly with a pair of clear, childlike eyes, looked at the lady with a thick fat powder on her face, and asked in a slow voice: "You call me?"

"Heh-" The eldest lady was obviously startled by my eyes, and the fat powder on her face fell off, and replied: "This son, you look too clear!"

With another smile in my heart, I looked at her carefully: Fengyun's figure, medium height, white top, bright red long skirt, and a crimson half-open peony embroidered on the hem of the skirt.

I looked at her quietly.

The eldest lady suddenly remembered that she hadn't done anything yet, so she asked: "Do you want to buy a box of rouge and give it to the girl?"

I followed her gaze, and it was a red wooden box of the same color as the skirt, the size of a palm, and the carving was simple and a little rough, but who would know that this was a carved knife that had been forged for many days, and it was extremely sharp.

"Oh, that's it," I put away the small sandalwood folding fan with long fingers in my hand, and said with a frown: "My mother didn't give me money when I came out, my aunt, I still won't buy it, it won't affect your business, I'm leaving." With that, he lifted his feet and walked forward.

"Wait a minute—" The eldest lady looked at me with a touched face, as if her long-lost kindness had suddenly returned.

She picked up the box of "Little Face Red" brand rouge, grabbed me, stuffed it into my hand, and said solemnly and bitterly: "Child, take it! Go home and rub it on your mother! Your mother gave birth to a good son!" Before she finished speaking, the eldest mother's eyes turned red.

My heart was calm, but suddenly, a ripple stirred up, and the hand holding the rouge box tightened.

"Auntie, this is not good. ”

The eldest lady didn't look over, she couldn't bear to look at the seemingly innocent and lovely person in front of her again, and wiped her tears and said, "Child, let's go!"

"Then, auntie, thank you, I'm leaving. I held the "little blush", glanced at the eldest lady again, nodded, and walked in front of her.

"Let's go-let's go-" The eldest lady's tears rained down, the cry shook the earth, tears and the fat powder on her face, and after a while, there was a pile of ** on the ground.

Walking out of the eldest lady's sight, I stopped and looked at the rouge box in my hand again.

Is it life or death?

Life and death are fateful, but it is also up to me.

Who am I?

Falling off the remnants of the red began to spit out the fragrance,

The good name is called the King of Flowers.

Peony, peony,

Is it life or death?

You'll soon find out.

Sighing softly and putting away the rouge box, I shook my head and continued walking.

......

"Hang red silk, light red lights, set off firecrackers, welcome the bride, talented women are in harmony, and husband and wife grow old together. ”

"Hahahaha-well said!"

Ji Zhong, the head of Yunfu, smiled happily and instructed his subordinates: "Take this cute little girl to the hall to get a red envelope, and by the way, send some gifts to the little girl to take back." ”

"Yes!"

Ji Zhong looked up at the two words "Yunfu" written by Yun Yuelang himself, his eyes were full of joy, and he stroked the short beard on his chin that was half an inch long, and sighed: Time flies so fast! The palm-sized child back then was about to marry a wife and have children, and the status of our Yunfu in the martial arts has been higher since then! What a relief.

"Xishan sent Huang Zhangmen to-"

"Master Huang, you're here, here, please. ”

"Lead the way to Master Huang. ”

"Yes!"

"Childe is?"

I smiled at the gaze of Kamiji, took out a greeting slip from my cuff, and handed it to him.

After he saw the prayer post clearly, he was obviously surprised, and after a long time, he replied to me: "Son, wait a minute, go down and go back." ”

"Good. ”

The courtyard of Yunfu is not considered magnificent in Yancheng, the state capital of Hongzhou, the whole architectural style is solemn and solemn, and it is still simple to go to China, which can be seen from the main entrance of Yunfu: the black lacquered gate, wide and high, and the whole façade is only decorated with a carved door knocker. Of course, today's Yunfu has changed its style, with colorful lights and festive announcements to people: a wedding banquet is being held in the mansion.

The wedding banquet almost couldn't hold back, and I was about to laugh out loud again.

"Drop off the sedan chair—"

Looking at the sound, a plain but elegant sedan chair stopped, the same simple entourage opened the curtain, and a middle-aged man in plain clothes and medium stature walked out of the sedan chair, tidied up his clothes and walked up the stairs.

"Wenren Zhuang Owner, you are here, please. Shi Qun, the second head of Yunfu, temporarily replaced Ji Zhong, walked out of the courtyard, and saw Wen Rensi, the owner of Wensi Villa, who came over.

"Mr. Shi hasn't seen him for a long time, and he has worked. Wen Rensi raised his hand in return.

"Who is this?" Wen Ren thought past me, stopped, and asked Shi Qun.

I turned my head, smiled faintly, and clenched my fists: "Wenren Zhuang owner, look up for a long time." Younger generation Shui Xihan. ”

"The surname Shui is rare. Wen Rensi nodded at me seemingly casually, and shook his head as he walked by.

"The surname Shui is indeed rare, and our late lady was also from the Shui clan. ”

I looked at Ji Zhong, who was walking out quickly, with a smile in my eyes.

"Shui Gongzi, I've been waiting for a long time, please come with me. ”

"I'm in trouble, Mr. Ji. ”

"Manager Ji, don't worry, take me and my brother with you by the way. ”

A cold voice appeared in my ears, neither high nor low, but deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. I looked at him: tall, thin, straight, with a delicate face. Dressed in a cool light blue robe, perhaps on a long journey, he was covered with a thin floor-length cape.

When he saw me looking at him, he looked at me, his eyes as deep as a bottomless pit.

Behind him came a little boy of no more than four or five years old, dressed in the same costume as him, even the color and material were very similar, and when I saw him, he also looked at me, but his eyes were full of curiosity and pleasure.

"Tang Gongzi, you have worked hard all the way. Is this the second son?" Ji Zhongjian was the son of the Tang Mansion, and he greeted him with a thorough manner.

"It is the second brother Tang Shengyuan. ”

"Mr. Ji is polite, the first time we met, my name is Tang Shengyuan. The little boy replied, and his mouth was very cute.

"When we met for the first time, Tang Ergongzi's young age showed everyone's style. Ji Zhong looked at Tang Shengyuan, his eyebrows and eyes were full of loving smiles.

"Hello, my name is Tang Lingshu, I don't know what to call the son?"

I couldn't hold back again, I lowered my head and smiled, raised my head, looked into his eyes, and replied, "Shui Xihan." ”

He was visibly stunned.

I would have explained, "The morning light will be bright." ”

He nodded, his brow furrowed slightly.

Tang Shengyuan looked at me with a surprised face, and suddenly smiled at me after hearing my explanation, I don't know if it was an illusion, I actually saw a little cunning.

Two entourages rushed behind him and took the cloaks from Tang Lingshu and Tang Shengyuan.

These two people are walking faster than their own team?

"Two Tang Gongzi, Shui Gongzi, please here. ”

Ji Zhong led the way in front, Tang Shengyuan looked happy, followed closely, Tang Lingshu and I were side by side, and their entourage walked at the end.

I didn't say anything all the way, I quietly slowed down my pace, but Tang Lingshu didn't know if it was intentional, but he always kept the same pace as me. Obviously, there is a big difference in leg length, is this logical? I can't explain it.

The building of Yunfu is not ostentatious, but the garden is not small, after all, this is the mansion of Yun Yuelang, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance.

After walking for a while, Ji Zhong suddenly stopped, beckoned to a few maids waiting on the side, and said to Tang Lingshu: "Tang Gongzi, after the door in front of you is the living room, and the wing room has been prepared." Before the hour came, the two sons took a short rest. Ji continued to guide the water boy. ”

"Shui Gongzi, please come here. ”

I saw Tang Lingshu looking at me, nodded at him and said goodbye, and also glanced at Tang Shengyuan, who looked at me with curiosity.

Under the guidance of Ji Zhong, he walked around the garden for a while and entered a deep courtyard.

If you look closely, it looks like a study. Ji Zhong walked in front of the door, knocked lightly, only paused for a moment, then pushed the door open, looked at me, and said, "Water boy, please." ”

I nodded, and as soon as I walked in, the door was gently closed by Ji Zhong outside.

Sure enough, it was the study, with several rows of bookshelves standing in the distance, faintly, you could smell the fragrance of paper and ink.

The desk was not far away, I approached, in addition to the pen and ink inkstone and a piece of paper with half of the ancient poems written on the table, there were two letters of worship, one was handed over to Ji Zhong by himself, and the other was presumably the one that had been left in Yunfu.

"Since the death of their mother, the Shui clan has re-lived in seclusion, and agreed with Yunfu that if one day, the Shui clan people come back, they will use this specially made worship post as a token. ”

I stopped at the table and listened quietly, not in a hurry to look at the person who was speaking, for I could hear that he was slowly walking towards me.

"I've compared the posts, and they're all the same. I don't know what to call the girl?"

It's rude, I'm wearing men's clothes today. My face was a little cold, but I still smiled a little, turned around, and looked at him beside me: he was really tall, and like Tang Lingshu, he needed me to look up to see them, his face was cold, and he was wearing a dark blue robe, although he was angular and extremely handsome, there was always an indescribable coldness on his body, which made people unconsciously avoid it. The eyes are also deep, even a little cold, and no one dares to take a second look, for fear that if one is not careful, he will be sucked out of the trembling soul. But I wasn't afraid, so I looked at him so calmly.

"Shui Xihan. I replied.

He didn't care about my name, walked around me, walked to the table and sat down, looked up at me and said, "I'm Yun Qinglin." Tell me, why are you here this time?"

Without a hurry to answer, I picked a chair by the window and sat down, and replied to him: "I need to have an identity in your mansion and borrow it for a while." As for what to do, on the premise of not affecting the Yun family, the person carrying the prayer post can choose not to answer the question of why and what to do. ”

It wasn't close, but I could still feel his gaze on my face.

There was a dripping clock in the corner of the study, and the room was silent, except for the ticking of water droplets.

Finally, he spoke: "As you wish." ”

I breathed a sigh of relief.

"At this hour, the bridegroom is still not going to change his clothes?" I was in a good mood and began to put on close.

He was obviously not interested in talking to me about such an in-depth topic, so he got up and walked towards the door.

"By the way, I can attend your wedding feast, I haven't eaten today. "I'm telling the truth.

It was quiet again, and he slowed down a few steps, opened the door, and left me with a word: "Of course, cousin." ”

I was amused to hear it.
