Chapter 126: It's hard to meet when you meet (5)

After all, Li had read the book, and was shocked when he finished listening, knowing that I was comforting her. But if this poem is attributed to her name, it is the generosity and tolerance of being a regular wife. It would be nice to come to Liu Gongzi.
The other ladies also chewed the poem slowly. They naturally knew that Li did not write poems before, but it is not easy to break at the moment, so they all smiled cateringly: "Ms. Liu's poem is indeed good."
Liu Gongzi was overjoyed after hearing this: "Your song last night was not bad, and today is even more profitable. I heard from the book boy, you ask him to find some ancient books to read. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me. ."
Li raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, her face became delicate, and her waist softened: "Thanks to my husband."
Afterwards, Mr. Liu talked and laughed with several other ladies, which was very familiar to him.
Xi He looked at me, his eyes were clear. I walked under a plum tree, folded a plum blossom in my hand and smelled it gently. He walked over with me and whispered quietly: "Ms. Liu's song last night, "Last night, I can drink a cup of nothing." You made it."
I said lightly: "We will have to deal with Gongzi Liu and the others in the future. I know his wife, so it should be." Then I sighed: "I looked at them, and thought of the women in the harem who were talking to each other, but they were facing each other. I have to make a peace of mind. I have gotten away, but they still can’t and don’t want to. I help a bunch of Lis, count as helping an original self, and do my best."
"Vil, stop thinking about the past, okay?" Xihe's hand held me.
I smiled sharply at him: "Don't worry, I never want to remember the past."
The setting sun was hanging in the western sky, and there was a bitter cold wind blowing. I gathered my cloak and looked at Li, who was calling everyone to have dinner, with a sympathetic smile.
After dinner, Liu Gongzi asked Xihe to paint. We asked him, so we had to answer. Li's family naturally wanted to go with him. I thought about it and went with it.
When the plum blossoms are in bloom, painting is naturally plum.
Xihe's painting skills were guided by Daxi masters, and he was naturally good. At this time, a few simple strokes outline a picture of Momei. Liu Gongzi drew a tree of red plums in pastels.
I looked at the red plum tree and suddenly thought that before entering the palace, my third brother also drew a red plum tree branch for me, but it suddenly disappeared half a year before I entered the palace. However, these belong to Ling Xuewei's past, so I no longer think about it.
"Weir, come and see." Xi He called me.
When I stepped forward, I saw a few plum trees on the painting, some plum blossoms on the branches, and another plum blossom in the blank space. I glanced at Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu who were talking over there. Seeing that they were not paying attention, I took a pen and wrote on Xi He’s painting,
If you don’t believe me, let’s see thousands of trees. Spring is when the east wind blows down.
He smiled and put the pen in his hand.
There is warmth in my heart, this is the life I have longed for. Add fragrance to your beloved one, stand and watch calligraphy and painting, watch step by step and walk on the moss. The two love each other, such as a knife can not open water. Don't worry about someone assigning that person's love to me.
Now, in Liu Gongzi's study room, I look at Xi He Junyi's figure and feel that my dream seems to have come true, although it is not true.
Xu Ye felt my gaze, Xihe smiled at me and threw the pen into the lotus-like brush wash, like an ordinary man, chose a thin wolf pen and slowly painted the details.
I was upset. This is not our home, everything in front of us looks like illusion. I took another look at the Liu Gongzi and his wife over there. Their husbands sang women's notes. If they didn't have those concubine rooms, they would have been more happy.
The silence of a room was broken by the sudden laughter. I saw Li frowned slightly, and then looked towards the door, I saw Han Yun came in with a few plum blossoms and took off the cloak. Inside, the veil of sakura, red and broken plum blossoms was double-sided, and the bottom was a moon-white water-patterned wavy skirt. , A plum blossom silver bead long hairpin, very charming and graceful.
"The plum blossoms in my Broken Moon Pavilion are blooming. I saw that they were blooming just right, so I folded a few branches and gave them to my husband." She smiled cleverly, and only then saw us after speaking.
"I don't want to thank you son, are you bothering you?" She smiled.
Xihe waved his hand, and Gongzi Liu said, "I have asked Brother Xie to paint plums here, and you can come and take a look."
Han Yun glanced at the Li next to Gongzi Liu, but didn't move forward. "Since the husband is painting plums and does not understand painting with rhyme, how about playing a song for him?"
Li brought a warm smile: "You are pregnant, it is better to have a good rest."
"It's okay, but play a piece. My husband also loves my pipa very much."
She looked around, but there was only one guzheng, and she couldn't help showing an embarrassed look.
I thought for a while and stepped forward: "Since the second lady is pregnant, it is still inconvenient and tired. But if it is accompanied by the piano sound, it will naturally be more elegant. Why don't I play a piece, please comment?"
Liu Gongzi said in surprise: "Xie Niang can also play the piano?"
I smiled: "It's just fur." ​​Then I looked at Xi He: "It's just that Xie Lang likes it, so I learned it."
After the words stop the drum, the lips are opened, and Yingying sings: "In the morning, the color of snow is condensed, and the new year is transformed into plum blossoms. The tree loves spring and flourishes, and the window is stunned. The cold river adds powder to the wall, and accumulates moss on the moss. Six clearly out of Switzerland, hidden A few branches open. Hearing the flute, the flowers are suspicious, and the piano is excited. The song is not widowed, and it makes you think slowly."
After the song was finished, Han Yun clapped his hands first: "Xie Niang, your piano is so good, and you can sing well." She said and looked at Liu Gongzi: "It's Peony, it's better than Xie Niang."
I was surprised, Peony? Thinking of having no choice but to hide in Wanchunlou before, Xiuhe once said that the top card of Wanchunlou was Peony. Reflecting on his performance in the past two days, it is really revealing too much, it will be suspicious. I had to smile without explaining.
Liu Gongzi looked at me with a little more doubt, but Xihe relieved me in time.
"There was a piano master from Jinling where we used to live. Niang Xie studied with her for a while, and she also praised her talent."
Han Yun nodded: "You are indeed talented. It's a pity that you are buried in the countryside with your looks."
I smiled slightly: "Xie Niang doesn't feel a pity, I have found a beloved who cherishes me, and my looks and talents belong to him. As long as he likes it, I will be satisfied."
Xihe shook my hand: "I and Wei Er, as long as we can stay together for a lifetime is enough."
Liu Gongzi nodded, respectful in his eyes. Li took the veil and pressed the corner of his eye, "The relationship between Master Xie and Niang Xie is really enviable."
Han Yun also smiled, Xu thought of his own life experience, even if the fireworks girl, who wouldn't want to find a lover? Although she is now married to Liu's house, she is a concubine after all, and it is regrettable that she is not liked by the old man.
In the bedroom at night, Xi He embraced me, listening to his heartbeat, my heart was at ease.
"Vil, don't you regret it?" His hand stroked my hair and said softly.
"You always ask me." I pretended to be unhappy.
"But I'm afraid, the life nowadays is very different from the one before you."
"Xi He," I sat up and looked at him: "If you say that, then you have to ask if you regret it, it should be me. I am a sinner who was expelled from the palace, and it is a blessing to be able to save my life. And you..."
Xihe sat up and laughed: "Okay, okay, I won't mention it." When he said that his hands were tight, his eyes burned, and then he kissed my lips.
His kiss was so hot, I hugged it tightly, and kissed it back. The red candle shines high, a charming room...
Because I slept late the night before, I got up later the next day. The things to buy are almost the same, so it doesn't hurt to get up later. On this day, I went to Anyang with Xi He. In Xu Ji Silk and Satin Village, Xi He insisted on buying a jade-colored satin dress for me, and bought a few more jewelry.
"Yu Huan, you don't have to spend money like this." I blamed slightly.
"The money we brought out is enough to spend, not to mention that you have done so much embroidery. When the spring day, I can go to the school as a teacher, and there are other calligraphy and paintings that can be sold on consignment. You don't have to be tired."
He smiled comfortingly at me: "So, you don't have to save like that. What's more, you will see your second brother tomorrow, so you can't let him think that I am neglecting you.
I got up early the next morning to dress up. Putting on that jade-colored skirt. The night before, I embroidered layers of patterns on the skirt with five-color silk threads. In this way, this skirt is comparable to what I wore in Lingfu, and it is lined with Wu cotton. , Is a beautiful dress. Sitting in front of the dressing table, pulling a wishful bun, Xi He took a jasper flower branch with a golden step, and carefully compared it between my hair, before solemnly inserting it on my bun.
I chose a few flower tins from the jewelry brought by Li and Han Yun, and put them on carefully in front of the mirror. The person in the mirror is completely different from the Xie Niang in Huangjiacun, but not the graceful queen in the Forbidden City. . The person in the mirror is slightly different from Miss Ling from the Ling Mansion. He looks like a married bride, and the corners of his brows and eyes are happy and sweet.
Come to think of it, this should be what the fathers and brothers once expected to see. After all, none of them wanted me to enter the palace.
"Let’s go. Let’s go to the restaurant on Qingrui Street. You can see your second brother from the window. Master Liu will have a banquet in the evening and we will go together. But I think it’s best to meet in the middle. I have already invited Brother Liu took us to the official post where the army is stationed. He is the master, and this can still be done." Xi He changed his clothes and said to me.
"How do you tell Master Liu?" I asked. After all, how could easily see the general.
Xihe smiled: "I only said that I really admire the general and hope to have the opportunity to meet. Liu Gongzi thought I wanted to recommend myself to the general, so he agreed to find a way."
I said: "Then it's not appropriate for me to go with you?"
"It's okay, you can do whatever you want with me." Xi He put on a cloak for me: "I have agreed with Gongzi Liu that I will bring you."
I pursed my lips slightly and nodded, but I became nervous.
The main road from Anyang City Gate to Qingrui Street has been cut off by the officers and soldiers. The people stood on both sides of the street looking forward to it. After all, the second brother is a famous general and the second son of the prime minister. He will soon become a messenger, which naturally arouses everyone's curiosity. .
I was standing in front of the box window on the third floor of Zuixianlou, watching the street shrugging shoulders on both sides of the street outside, and the crowd was crowded. I have seen this scene before. At that time, I was the protagonist of the people watching.
Brother Liu and Master Wu naturally went outside Anyang City to wait for the army. Although Xi He was chatting with me, I was absent-minded. I was always frightened and looked forward to it, which brought worries and expectations. Always staring at the direction of the far gate, the palms of his hands are sweating from tension.
Suddenly, a dry hand grasped my hand. I looked up and Xi He gave me a calm smile.
"Come on, you will see it clearly here, don't worry. I will let you see him alone later." Xi He smiled slightly, but his smile was also a little nervous. After all, seeing the second brother, we have to tell everything. Those, I don’t know if the second brother can accept him?
There was an uproar in the distance, as well as the cheers of the crowd. I looked up and saw the banners hunting, and there were the sound of horseshoes, armor rustling and brushing footsteps.
"Here." Xihe pointed to a team that came slowly. Right in front of him, riding on a black horse, wearing a golden armor, and a face like a majestic star, he was exactly Second brother.
His face was full of smiles, kind and gentle, but his whole body was awe-inspiring, majestic and heroic, and jade quality, which attracted the admiration of the people.
