Chapter 9 The Most Beautiful Color of Eighteen Years
In this way, Yan'er drank the soup that the senior sister cooked for her every day, and after a week, Yan'er's face was obviously much better.
On this day, Murong Feng saw that the little junior sister was playing with some flowers and plants planted in the yard. Originally, the master had always not allowed the apprentices to plant things in the courtyard, so the entire Murong Mansion was lifeless. However, the second senior brother is a person who pays attention to temperament, and he tried his best to persuade the master, saying that he wanted to plant some medicinal herbs in the courtyard, after all, the second senior brother was proficient in pharmacology, and the master thought that he might be able to use these medicinal materials in the future, so he agreed. So the second senior brother planted medicinal herbs in the yard, and in this way, the yard finally had some greenery and finally had a little vitality.
When the senior sister saw this, she planted some small flowers in the gap between the medicinal herbs. Under the cover of the medicinal herbs, these flowers did not appear obvious, and the master did not notice it, and the ancestor's eyes were not good, so naturally he would not notice anything.
No, the geese are fascinated by these flowers at this moment.
"Yan'er, what are you thinking?" Murong Feng walked over and asked.
"Senior brother, I suddenly want to go down the mountain to have a look. ”
"What, how did you suddenly have such a thought. Murong Feng was taken aback.
"Every time Master comes back from outside, I want to ask Master what the outside world is like, but Master always doesn't tell me, and, moreover, I find," Yan'er suddenly stopped talking.
"What did you find?"
"I found that Master didn't like me very much all along. Yan'er lowered her head.
"Yan'er, how can you have such an idea. If Master doesn't like you, why do you still exhaust your skills to heal and detoxify you every time? ”
"I know this, and I have always been grateful to Master. However, for as long as I can remember, Master has never smiled at me, and although Master has never treated me badly in terms of food and clothing, I obviously feel that I am treated differently from my senior sister and second senior sister. I remember one year, Master went down the mountain and came back and bought a lot of things, and every one of you had gifts, but I didn't have anything. ”
Hearing Yan'er say this, Murong Feng seemed to remember.
It was the winter of one year, and when Master came back from going down the mountain, he brought gifts for everyone. When it was time to distribute the gifts, all the children gathered around the master, but only Yan'er did not get anything. At that time, when the senior sister saw such a scene, in order to make Yan'er not sad, she gave the red hairpin that the master bought for herself to the little junior sister, but she didn't expect the master to snatch it over, and said something that made Yan'er sad and even more sad for Murong Feng: "Wan'er, the red hairpin was bought for you, and your black hair looks good together." Yan'er, your gray hair is strange enough, so don't bring any hairpins. ”
Since then, Yan'er has never worn any hair ornaments on her head. Whenever the senior sister wanted to braid Yan'er, Yan'er always refused, so Yan'er's white hair was draped all day long, and Yan'er always hid in the house and didn't want to come out.
It took a long time for Yan'er to forget about this incident, in fact, in Yan'er's heart, this incident will be her eternal pain.
Thinking of this, Murong Feng also felt strange, several of their brothers and sisters were all picked up by the master from the bottom of the mountain, but why did the master be so harsh on Yan'er, but the master obviously didn't like Yan'er, but why did the master still heal Yan'er.
These questions made Murong Feng feel anxious, but at the moment, there is something more important than thinking about these problems, that is, hurry up and make Yan'er happy.
"Yan'er, don't you want to go down the mountain to have a look?" said the senior brother.
"Yes, senior brother, do you have a way?"
"Of course there is, but Yan'er has to wait for the time obediently, and when the time is ripe, the senior brother will take you down the mountain to see the outside world, and moreover, you have to buy some delicious things for Yan'er. ”
"Really, senior brother, your words count. ”
"When did Senior Brother lie to you? ”
Yan'er was very happy, but what happened next made Yan'er and Murong Feng even happier.
Murong Feng suddenly saw that among Yan'er's silver-white hair, there was suddenly a black hair hidden.
So, the two of them looked at this hair very happy, especially Yan'er, from bottom to big, the white hair at this end made her feel particularly inferior, the second senior sister always made fun of her with this, and now, finally has a black hair, in her opinion, this black is actually the most beautiful color she has ever seen in the past eighteen years.
Saying goodbye to Yan'er, Murong Feng happily ran to the senior sister's room. He wanted to tell the senior sister the good news as soon as possible, perhaps, the reason why Yan'er has black hair is because Yan'er has been eating lotus, which may be a sign that Yan'er's illness is getting better.
Perhaps because he was too happy, Murong Feng forgot to knock on the door and rushed into the senior sister's room at once.
The moment he pushed the door open, Murong Feng was stunned, and Senior Sister also screamed.
It turned out that the elder sister was taking a bath.
So, Murong Feng saw the long black hair like a waterfall scattered by the senior sister, and the snow-white and smooth back under the black hair.
Murong Feng hurriedly said sorry, then quickly came out of it and closed the door.
"You, do you have something to do with me?" asked the senior sister inside the door in a low voice.
"It's fine, nothing important. ”
"Then go back first, I'll look for you in your room later. ”
Murong Feng left without saying a word.
When he returned to the room, his heart was still pounding, to be honest, Murong Feng had reached the age of falling in love, and in his heart, he had always regarded the senior sister as his ideal object in the future, the senior sister was beautiful, as clear and jade as a lotus, and more importantly, the senior sister was still so gentle and kind, if he could really marry the senior sister as his wife in the future, Murong Feng believed that he would have no regrets in this life.
Moreover, since the senior sister was a child, she has had a magical fragrance on her body, and the moment she pushed the door just now, such a fragrance was even more coming.
At this moment, Murong Feng was very annoyed, he was angry that he had just made a sudden mistake, and he actually offended the senior sister, alas, he blamed himself for not being calm in trouble, the boudoir of the girl's house, he could say that he could break into it.
Just when Murong Feng was ashamed, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?" This can be said to be a knowingly question, in Murong Feng's heart, he already knew that this must be the senior sister, but he was embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so he had to ask like this.
"It's me. The voice of the senior sister came from outside the door.
Murong Feng opened the door, and the two of them kept their heads down and blushed.
Although Murong Wan'er is the senior sister, she is only three years older than Murong Feng, and both of them are at the age of understanding the love of children, so they will naturally be a little embarrassed.
I don't know how long it took for Murong Feng to remember and speak: "Senior sister, what happened just now ......"
"Didn't you say you had something to do with me?" Senior Sister interrupted Murong Feng's words.
"Oh, by the way, Senior Sister, I just saw a black hair on Yan'er's head. ”
"Really?"
The news of Yan'er's improvement made the two of them happily forget the embarrassment just now.
"In this way, it is really the lotus flower that has worked, and the master has detoxified Yan'er, I believe that Yan'er will get better soon. Senior Sister said happily.
"yes, yes,"
"However, in the past few days, I have used up half of the lotus flowers for Yan'er's soup, and it seems that to completely cure Yan'er's illness, the remaining lotus flowers are not enough at all. Senior Sister said worriedly.
Murong Feng also fell into deep thought.
"By the way, before leaving, Zhong Shen told me that I could come back to get the lotus when I ran out. ”
"I'm afraid this is just a polite remark. Think about it, this lotus flower only blooms once in 30 years, naturally it is really very precious, even if you saved Zhong Shen's life, but people gave you a three-petal lotus flower is already considered benevolent and righteous, if we ask again, I am afraid that we ourselves are insatiable. ”
"So what can I do about it?"
"Forget it, let's take one step at a time, let's eat like this now, and then talk about it later. ”
It is said that in the Zhong family, the family is sitting together and eating a reunion dinner.
Zhong Dushan came back from the Tibetan Wushan martial arts competition, this time, Zhong Jin, the eldest son of the Zhong family, also went to see the martial arts competition with his father, after all, Zhong Dushan is now older, and the entire Zhong family's family business will eventually be handed over to his two sons.
Every year at the Dance Forest Conference in Zangwu Mountain, Zhong Dushan is respected as a senior, and since his daughter was stolen eighteen years ago, he has never competed with others at the martial arts conference. As he grew older, Zhong Dushan would sit at the conference and watch other people's martial arts competitions every time.
This time, before leaving, Zhong Jin strongly asked his father to bring him, Zhong Jin is twenty-six years old this year, and he has already reached the age of marrying a wife and having children, but this child is young and vigorous, always puts martial arts practice in the first place, and delves into magic with one mind, and never takes the matter of starting a family to heart. Many of everyone's girls asked someone to inquire about Zhong Jin's meaning, but Zhong Jin couldn't help but refuse.
Seeing Zhong Jin's obsession with martial arts, Zhong Dushan always recalled himself back then, strong in blood, eager for quick success, and always thinking about relying on his martial arts to conquer everyone. Such ambitions are good, but they can be irreparable mistakes if left unchecked.
Just like myself back then, if I hadn't wanted to show myself too much in front of everyone, if I had told everyone about Jiang Rufeng's rebellion earlier, if I hadn't been so desperate back then, maybe, all the stories would not have ended like today. It was himself, in a sense, who hastened Jiang Rufeng's demise. Later, when he experienced the pain of losing his daughter, Zhong Dushan reflected more than once, maybe this was God's punishment for his wrong decision back then.
"Jin'er, how is this year's martial arts conference?" Mrs. Zhong asked Zhong Jin, and also pulled Zhong Dushan back from her memories.
"Back to my mother, the child has really gained knowledge this time. The dance forest conference really lived up to its name, and the child saw many talented people in the martial arts, and suddenly felt that there were people outside the mountain. Zhong Jin said.
"Twilight, you see, our son is really grown up now. Mrs. Zhong said with relief.
"Jin'er, my father has always had high hopes for you, and your martial arts are getting better and better, I believe that you will definitely carry forward the Zhong family in the future. ”
"Thank you, father, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the second elder. ”
"There's just one thing," Zhong continued, "your competitive spirit is really too heavy, and this must be changed. Otherwise, you will suffer a big loss. ”
"The child knows, at the martial arts conference, I was indeed a little impatient and reckless. ”
"What's going on?" asked Madame Chung.
"That's right, Mother. I walked into the ring and waited for the challenger. There were several people in a row, but after a few rounds, none of them were my opponents. Just as I was about to go down, a woman suddenly came up. Seeing that she was a woman, I wanted to give her three points, who knew that she actually used a secret trick on me, I gave her a slap in a fit of anger, which probably made her hurt a lot. ”
"It's not right to use secret tricks, but, you shouldn't be so impulsive. Zhong Dushan said.
"The child knows that he is wrong, and he will not be so impulsive in the future. ”
"Okay, okay, now that the child already knows it's wrong, don't be unforgiving, let's eat quickly. Mrs. Zhong said.
"In the past few days since I've been gone, nothing has happened at home, right?" asked Zhong Dushan.
"It's not a big deal, by the way, Shen'er almost had an accident, thanks to a good man named Murong Feng who saved his life. This Murong Feng is also from this Lingyun Mountain, and there is a little junior sister in the family who is highly poisonous, so I gave him some snow lotus. Also, this little junior sister is also eighteen years old this year, the same age as our Shui'er, but on her chest, there is no cinnabar mole. After Mrs. Zhong finished speaking, her eyes turned red.
Zhong Dushan also sighed helplessly.
