Chapter 2, Section 15, Taihu Lake Romance 082
Taihu Lake Love
The sun is shining, Ren Tianqi and his party of ten people slowly walk on the mountain road on horseback, the big trees on both sides of the road, although it is the middle of winter now, but it is also dense branches and leaves, with the wind waving, rustling, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves, light and far-reaching.
Everyone left Murong Villa, and broke up with Mr. Big and went their separate ways. The panic on the road to Suzhou for several days has caused everyone to feel haggard and exhausted, and they are indeed in no mood to do anything else; the vast majority of people are coming to Suzhou for the first time, and they have long heard that "there is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below" The legend is that they all want to take a break to take a walk, so everyone is not in a hurry to go to Wuthering Heights, just inquire about the location of the villa, and then find a big inn in Suzhou City to live, sleep a few days of good sleep, and go out to visit the mountains and rivers, eat some snacks, buy some small playthings, buy some silk silk fans for the county lord, spices and powder, and forget about those unpleasant things, after a few days of peace of mind.
Four days have passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, everyone came to the Taihu Lake outside Suzhou.
The weather is cold and windy, the embankment is sparsely populated, there are few tourists, but this is exactly what everyone wants, everyone just rides horses all the way unrestrained, laughing and laughing so freely, and there is no need to care about the strange eyes of others. It was said that it was noon in the middle of the day, and everyone came to a stone arch bridge to dismount and rest, eat some dry food and drink some water.
There is also a tourist by the bridge, alone, dressed very exquisitely, red and white skin, more delicate in appearance, polite and polite, and is also dismounted and eating dry food in the saddle. When he heard the laughter and laughter here, he frequently cast his eyes curiously, which attracted Dongxue's attention.
This is also a young man with delicate eyebrows, and he can see that there is a long black cloth wrapped in the saddle, and he can see that it is wrapped in a long sword, and he thinks that this person is only afraid that he is making his debut, and his insights are not enough, and he is a little naΓ―ve. The sword is a sharp weapon for self-defense, and it is very useful for prestige, so it should be worn clearly, or it does not have to be a famous sword, and the precious things are not suitable for carrying, let alone being displayed in the eyes.
Dong Xue knew that this person must be the first time to set foot in the rivers and lakes, and she felt sympathy, so she couldn't help but look at the man a few more times, and immediately took out a water bag and handed it to Shaur, and said a few words of Mongolian in her ear.
Shaur nodded, walked up with the water bag and said a few words to the man, handed the water bag and returned.
The man bowed deeply, and everyone waved and smiled.
The people ate and drank to their heart's content, and then they took the lake embankment and walked as far as they could.
When the breeze came, I saw a boat rippling on the water, and the birds fishing on the boat never returned empty-handed; the old man was wearing a thin cloth shirt, sweating like rain, and was busy non-stop, and this scene was envied by everyone; in particular, in this winter snow, a few people live in the desert of the northern country, and rarely see water, let alone hundreds of miles of Taihu Lake, which is even more rare, and he stared at the boat without turning his eyes, and exclaimed in bursts of exclamation, Ren Tianqi laughed and said nothing.
Ren Tianqi was moved by the scene, smiled, and said casually: "
In the middle of winter, the white causeway is cold, and the lonely boat ripples in the water.
Who is the road to the wind and snow, and you can't see the birds busy with their clothes?"
Dongxue and other ordinary people don't learn many words, so they compete to say good and praise in private.
Tang Shengzhi is full of poetry and books, but he is not good at revealing it around, just smiling and laughing, not commenting.
Ren Tianqi looked up and saw the second brother smiling without saying a word, knowing that the second brother's talent was far better than his own, he hurriedly shook his head and smiled, and said: "You don't have to make fun of me, such foul words, touching the scene, talking about it by the way, it's not worth worrying about." β
A person next to him answered: "
The humane layman looked at the white causeway, and the three concubines and five dais accompanied him.
It is not cold in winter, and the gentleman's fence is beautiful.
I lie on the bridge alone, and his person is like the wind sending spring light. β
When everyone heard the sound, they looked back, and it turned out that they had just met the young man, who was talking to himself on the embankment not far away.
Ren Tianqi turned his head and alluded to the person, and said in a low voice: "Look, this is the Temper Essence Theory, this is called a well-educated person, that Sven like my half-hanger!"
Ma Benqing laughed and said, "Brother, it's funny! You're not afraid that others will feel shabby? If you don't show us, how can you know your ability, what's the hypocrisy? Isn't your master casually looking forward to a few of us saying a few nice words and singing a lot?"
The crowd laughed.
Ren Tianqi slapped his buttocks, blushed and had a thick neck, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Come on, let's go, I don't know you in general, and I ignore you." Or, Second Brother Tang, you can say a few words!"
Everyone knows that Tang Shengzhi is both civil and military, low-key, not good at words, and very shy, he must be embarrassed to refuse the wishes of others, so the group started to coax.
Tang Shengzhi saw that he couldn't resist everyone, and said with a smile: "Cheng, then I'll make up a song too." Whether it's good or not, I hope you don't want to laugh!"
Ma Benqing said with a smile: "The second master just talk about it, it's a big deal, let's not laugh, don't talk or be sarcastic." β
Everyone said yes again and again.
Ren Tianqi turned around and looked at everyone.
Tang Shengzhi frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't make jokes, everyone! The white causeway, the water and the sky are connected, and the green water reflects the blue sky. The lonely boat ripples in the water, and the ripples ripple out of the water.
Everyone praised each other, and made fun of Ren Tianqi again.
Everyone got on their horses and walked to the inn, but the wind rose again on this fine day, and the gray-red clouds in the sky were about to fall, and it seemed that it was going to snow again in the evening. Everyone scolded God for this, this year's snow has fallen very frequently, especially heavy and early.
Back at the inn for dinner, Ren Tianqi and Dong Xue sorted out the things they bought in the room, and Gong Ming opened the window on the side to look at the night scene outside the store.
The wind swept the lights out. Ren Tianqi scolded: "Little San, can't you die of the heat in this winter? Close the window, look at the lights are almost gone!"
Gong Ming smiled, closed the window, turned his head and said with a smile: "I said master, in such a cold day, if a person stays out for one night, will he freeze to death?"
Ren Tianqi was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Who hasn't treated you badly, dress well, eat well, isn't it too bad to be such an exquisite inn, don't you and Dongxue also live here?
Gong Ming said with a smile: "Where, I can see that on the street downstairs, there is a person leading a horse downstairs and walking back and forth with his hands up, constantly jumping, presumably this person has no money, and he is reluctant to sell this horse, so he has nowhere to go, he is hesitating in all directions, but he is freezing unbearable!"
Ren Tianqi smiled and scolded: "This person is not the same as you, his brain is in water! It is right to sell the horse first, fill your stomach and sleep well!"
Gong Ming nodded and said with a smile: "That's it, that's it, Xiao San thinks the same way, but there are really stupid people in this world who are more stupid than me!"
Dongxue packed up her things and interjected, "Who are you two talking about? Look at the way your master and servant are gloating!"
Gong Ming glanced at the window and said with a smile: "By the way, this person is a little involved with your winter snow, it seems to be the young and handsome person we gave water at noon!"
Dongxue was stunned for a moment, got up and said hurriedly: "Where is it?"
Gong Ming didn't understand, shook his head in surprise and said, "It's just outside the window!"
Dong Xuefei stepped forward, pushed the window probe boy to take a closer look, and sure enough. Hurriedly closed the window, pushed the door and ran out.
Ren Tianqi and Gong Ming were inexplicably surprised.
Gong Ming patted his head and said with a smile: "Yes, the female university is not staying, and the female heart is extroverted! Also, has it been done in the past few days?" Gong Ming stepped forward and whispered.
Ren Tianqi shook his head, he couldn't guess the reason, and said with a smile: "Nonsense, what kind of thing has not been done, Dongxue is not that kind of person!"
Gong Ming smiled: "Master, this person's heart is separated from his belly, and he doesn't know people's faces." In this way, you must not be able to sleep well these nights?"
Gong Ming grinned and dodged Ren Tianqi's sweeping kick.
Ren Tianqi smiled: "Don't talk nonsense, lest you let her hear it." β
Gong Ming said with a smile: "There are really a lot of rules in this Murong family, and this sleeping woman is really powerful, and she tossed me for a night." This man from the Murong family is Yan Fu!"
Ren Tianqi smiled and waved his hand, and Gong Ming stuck out his tongue.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Dongxue led the young man into the room and introduced him to the master.
This person's name is Dongfang Bai, a native of Hangzhou, who came to Suzhou to visit the mountains and rivers, and unexpectedly encountered gangsters who lost silver taels, and had no relatives, so there was no way to live for a while.
Ren Tianqi looked up, and saw that this person had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and there was an indescribable charm, there were a few women's charming, it was estimated that it was the noble son of a big family, who had been spoiled for a long time, and was born so weak that he looked like a daughter.
Ren Tianqi smiled and comforted: "This is a trivial matter, the son doesn't have to worry; β
Dongfang Bai got up and thanked him.
Outside, Xiao Er served hot dishes and hot noodles.
This Dongfang Bai only ate a small bowl and stopped moving his chopsticks.
Ren Tianqi looked at it in his eyes, thinking that this boy seemed to be really from a wealthy family, how could he eat so little, like a woman, how could he eat five or six bowls in one meal. Yes, if you are not familiar with life, you must be embarrassed. Ren Tianqi didn't take this matter to heart.
Gong Ming must have been hungry, so he swept away the remaining noodles with Dongfang Bai's chopsticks.
Dongxue did her best to talk to Dongfang Bai, laughing.
Ren Gong and the others couldn't interject, and Ren Tianqi Suo wiped the spotted bamboo sword on the side. The sword light flashed so much that it aroused Dongfang Bai's curiosity.
Gong Ming yawned several times on the side, his eyes were hazy, and he said to his master with a smile: "It's not early, I should go to bed, master, you should also rest!"
Dongfang Bai's face turned red when he heard this, and he was about to get up and leave, but Dongxue hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed it, and asked Dongfang Bai to sit down with a smile.
Ren Gong and the two were taken aback, expecting that this winter snow was also a little bolder, and it was too out of line, and it was hurtful to be so men and women in front of the master, but both of them felt that the winter snow was strange today, and there was something to cover up unspoken, look at the corners of his mouth upturned, and a pair of eyes from time to time to the master, he was so tender that Ren Tianqi's heart was like a hundred claws scratching his heart.
Dong Xue smiled and stepped forward to Ren Tianqi and said, "Master, please sleep with Gong Ming or Tang Ye today, I haven't opened many rooms, so I won't be far away." As he spoke, he pushed his master outward.
Ren Tianqi glanced at Dongfang Bai with doubts, and was about to say something, when he saw Dong Xue turn around and smile: "Miss Bai hasn't seen our master soon?
Dongfang Bai took off his hat, shook his head, hung down his black and black three thousand long hair, stepped forward with a red face and gave a deep salute, and said in a low voice: "The little woman Dongfang Bai has seen Ren Gongzi." β
Ren Tianqi was startled, smiled, secretly exhaled, hurriedly returned the salute, asked Dongxue to help Dongfang Bai, turned around and escaped from the room with Gong Ming;
Ren Tianqi complained about Xiao San's chewing tongue along the way, and he had no beads.
It snowed for another day and a night, and there was no way to go, so everyone stayed in the inn with Dongfang Bai for two days, practicing swords, drinking tea, chatting, and playing chess. Although Ren Tianqi is not good at talking, he is also well-informed, and when it comes to interesting stories about the rivers and lakes, he also pinched it casually, plus Gong Ming and others added branches and ink leaves on the side, the Oriental girl really never got tired of hearing it, but it was too short;
