Chapter Thirteen "Recalling the King and Grandson"
The boss was stunned at first, but then he was overjoyed and said with a smile on his face: "Okay sir, take this first, and I'll bring the little one to you."
Xiao Guanhong took the warm jasper rouge box and felt helpless. He turned around and glanced at his delicate sister, stretched out his hand, smiled slightly, and said coolly: "Here, I'll give it to you."
Xiao Shuiling was stunned for a moment, looking at his younger brother with flashing eyes. He didn't say anything for a while, and subconsciously took the cigarette grease box. He only felt that his younger brother was so tall, handsome and handsome today. He was so moved that he almost cried.
His eyes flashed with excitement. Then he suddenly said with joy: "Ah - brother, brother, you are so good!" After saying that, he still felt that he was not satisfied, so he immediately rushed over and kissed Xiao Guanhong's white and tender face.
.
Xiao Guanhong's face turned red because of her. He never thought that his sister would do such an unusual thing. He thought to himself: This beauty is so popular, a kiss is worth fifty taels...
At this time, everyone in the store looked over and saw that someone had already pursed his lips and smiled.
The boss also took the rouge, smiled and handed it to Xiao Guanhong's hand, then rubbed his hands without saying anything, waiting for Xiao Guanhong's movements.
Xiao Guanhong looked at his sister's happy expression and felt like crying without tears. Angrily, he took out the two fifty-tael silver notes from his arms and handed them over.
Xiao Guanhong was so angry that his teeth itched, and he cursed in his heart that some bastard who had been stabbed a thousand times invented such a thing called rouge that was harmful to the world and the country and the people. As he was cursing, he found that the boss still had some conscience, and saw Xiao Guanhong buying two in a row.
, which was cheaper by ten taels of silver.
After Xiao Guanhong walked out of the store with his sister, he raised his head slightly and looked at the sky quietly, thoughtfully, his eyes seemed a little moist. The scene in his mind flashed from the sky and the clouds. With a slightly sad expression, only he
A voice could be heard murmuring to himself: "All kinds of delicious food... Goodbye, I will miss you."
Seeing that everything was in order, the siblings picked up their horses and headed straight to Meizhuang.
When they arrived at the gate of Meizhuang, the siblings were filled with joy. After running around for so many days, they finally got over it. In fact, from far away, they saw the long wall of Meizhuang and couldn't help but sigh at the scale and financial resources of Meizhuang.
huge.
When I walked in, I saw two mighty stone lions standing at the door, each holding an hydrangea in their hands, one with his head tilted to the left and the other with his head tilted to the right. Except for the different patterns of the hydrangeas, the two lions were exactly the same.
.
The vermilion door is closed tightly, solemnly and solemnly. There is a plaque horizontally above the door, and the two golden characters "Mei Zhuang" shine under the sunlight. The plum tree planted in the village pokes its head out to welcome
Looking at the guests arriving from far ahead.
There were several young nurses in front of the door. When they saw these two people coming, they hurriedly greeted them and asked who the two guests were so that they could go in and report. One of them was an old man and he recognized the two of them and welcomed them with a smile on his face.
, while letting the waiter in to inform, he let the siblings in.
When you walk into the door, you will see a huge screen wall in front of you. The colorful paintings on it reflect a plum forest. The pure plum blossoms are blooming proudly in the wind and snow.
Turning around the screen wall, a vast field suddenly opened up in front of me. It was divided into two parts. The front part was paved with square brand-new marble tiles. Every few blocks there was an unpaved area, which was planted with seeds.
Tall plum trees. The back half is a clear blue pool with sparkling water. There are no plants planted in the pool. The entire pool surface reflects the shadow of the surrounding plum trees. The scenery is picturesque.
In the center of the venue is a tall and majestic meeting hall with its back to the lake. It is built on a three-foot-high stone platform. The green tiles above face the gradually setting sun, emitting a faint blue light. The front half of the courtyard
There are also many huts built next to the wall, which should be the residences of the servants. At the junction of the courtyard and the lake, there are two walls on the left and right to separate the inside, and there is an arch on each wall.
Standing in the yard and looking back, across the lake and through a layer of screen-like plum blossom trees, one can slightly see the outline of the houses in the backyard of Meizhuang. Xiao Guanhong vaguely remembered that it was a very large house.
, are the residences and guest rooms of Meizhuang disciples.
Behind the arch on the left should be a large training ground. Although there are eighteen kinds of weapons, the disciples mostly practice light kung fu and hidden weapons. Inside the arch on the right is a rockery mountain, pavilions, gardens and the houses of the village owner and his family.
.
The two siblings heard from the servant leading the way that the owner of the village had not come back today. After a while, they saw the housekeeper coming over. He exchanged a few words with the two siblings and said that the young lady was at home and was probably practicing the piano in the pavilion. Xiao Guanhong was very happy when he heard this.
, after bidding farewell to the housekeeper, he pulled Xiao Shuiling towards the arch on the right.
As they got closer and closer to the arch, the siblings could only hear soft and melodious piano sounds coming from inside the door. As they got closer, the sounds became clearer. The two couldn't help but slow down their pace, for fear of disturbing the people playing the piano inside.
Accompanied by the melodious music of the piano, the sister and brother quietly walked to the door and looked inside.
This is a garden, mostly dominated by plum trees, with various flowers and plants planted around it, exuding a faint fragrance in spring. In the center is a small pavilion, behind the pavilion is a small rockery waterfall, and inside the garden is
Several luxurious houses should be the residence of the owner of Mei Village.
Even though the flowers were so delicate and the water was gurgling, the siblings had no intention of looking at them. They just stood quietly at the door, concentrating on looking at the figure in the pavilion with slightly closed eyes, dressed in white clothes like snow, playing the guqin lightly in his hands.
A sixteen or seventeen year old girl who was singing softly to the sound of the piano.
The beautiful face of the girl in white is like a newly blooming plum blossom, with a hint of mature arrogance in her tenderness. She is so spotless, so far away from the fireworks of the world, and so otherworldly. Her white and slender fingers are on a guqin
Caressing her softly, the cheerful and melodious sounds were like magic spells that made Xiao Guanhong's heart beat faster and his face turn red. It also made him feel like he was in a paradise, and his whole body felt relaxed and free from worries.
The girl put her whole body and mind on the piano in front of her, not paying attention to the arrival of these two people, and sang a song "Remembering the King and the Grandson":
"Snow is slowly falling into the mortal world, and the plum blossoms are blown by the wind and accompanied by traces of snow, disturbing the true love. My eyes are dim, how can I separate the snowflakes from the plum blossoms?"
Xiao Guanhong only felt that he was in a plum forest with falling snow, watching the snowflakes and plum blossoms flying one after another, it was such a pure world.
While Xiao Guanhong was lost in thought, the girl finished singing and paused slightly. Martial arts practitioners have to have keener senses. If they felt something strange, they raised their eyes and looked towards the door.
The moment Xiao Guanhong made eye contact with her, his ears suddenly turned red and his heart beat. He was at a loss. He also wondered, what was going on? He didn't feel like this the last time they met. He was so nervous that he even forgot to say hello.
The girl, on the other hand, was surprised at first, then happy. She raised her body and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, Sister Xiao."
Xiao Guanhong was a little nervous for no reason, and subconsciously smiled and murmured: "Mei Shimei."
Xiao Shuiling smiled slightly and walked up, "Wonderful, wonderful, Ru Xue, your piano skills are really getting better and better. Although I know the music, I am really ashamed of myself compared to my sister."
Xiao Guanhong followed suit and praised: "Yes, this song should only exist in heaven." Hmm... "Why do you hear it in the world today?" Xiao Guanhong couldn't remember the next sentence, so he scribbled it randomly.
Xiao Shuiling rolled her eyes at him. But Mei Ruxue pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Xiao Guanhong with a pair of eyes as clear as water. Not only was the elder brother who had not seen him this year a little taller, but he was also a little more mature and handsome.
Heroic. There was an indescribable meaning flashing between his eyebrows. "Sister, Brother Shi, you are too polite. My sister just sang a few lines casually, which made Sister, Brother Shi laugh." After a pause, he said, "By the way, I remember Dad.
The invitation has just been sent out, why did you come so quickly?"
Xiao Shuiling smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "It's not my brother who can't wait any longer. He keeps clinging to me saying 'hurry up, hurry up'. It seems that there is someone in Meizhuang that he misses very much."
Mei Ruxue's face turned slightly red after hearing this, and she bit her lips lightly as if she was embarrassed. But there was a trace of joy in her eyes.
Xiao Guanhong was also a little at a loss. Why did sister Xindao talk nonsense when they met? Just when she was feeling a little embarrassed if she didn't talk anymore, she had an idea and quickly took out the box of "Colorful Xiaguang" and handed it to Mei Ruxue."
Oh, Shimei, this is a gift I prepared for you. I don’t know if you like it or not."
Little did Xiao Guanhong know that giving the woman rouge had a certain meaning. When Xiao Shuiling saw this, she pursed her lips and snickered.
Mei Ruxue took the rouge box, her eyes lit up, she carefully opened the lid of the jade box, looked at the delicate and moist pieces of rouge, smelled the fragrant smell, her face turned redder, and she said a little shyly:
Chapter completed!
