Chapter 122 Picking up maple leaves

Li Mian was idle and suddenly had a whim. He took Zhinu and Yunniang out of the mansion.

Leaving from the back door, he came to Shichahai, and boarded the cruise ship in the mansion.

Rafting on the lake, enjoying the beautiful scenery of Shichahai.

Li Mian sat in the pleasure boat in the cruise ship, pushed open the willow pane and admired the shimmering scenery around him.

Yunniang put down the Duanmu Liangjin box in her hand, held up the blue mattress, pressed it under her legs, and then raised it to outline a beautiful curve.

She half-kneeled and half-sitted beside Li Mian, holding the pipa in her hand, and played the music for the son-in-law's entertainment.

Chi Nu was barefoot, lying on a boat outside, humming an unknown tune in his mouth, but it echoed with the sound of the pipa played by Yun Niang, which was quite pleasant tone.

Li Mian didn't expect that Zhinu and Yunniang had good musical skills. She closed her eyes and listened for a while: "Although it is a little deficient than Chen Yuanyuan, it is a bit funny and it is really beautiful."

Zhinu and Yunniang heard the son-in-law say something that was not enough than Chen Yuanyuan, and there was no loss, but instead looked joyful.

The tone they played and sang randomly was actually comparable to Chen Yuanyuan, the number one actor in the capital. My son-in-law was so proud of them.

Yunniang played for a while and was exhausted. She put down the pipa in her hand: "It would be great if Sister Yuanyuan could be in the pleasure boat. With her singing, my son-in-law would definitely feel better when he came out to enjoy the scenery. I can also ride another pleasure boat on the pleasure boat, blocking it nearby. If anyone dares to come close, he needs to hand it over to me one or two taels of silver... no... ten taels of silver, and you will make a lot of money at that time, hehe."

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Li Mian thought Yunniang was considering him, but she still couldn't do without Xiaocai's thoughts.

He laughed in silence, stretched out his hand and flicked Yunniang's head: "If you have the ability to convince Chen Yuanyuan, it would be a good way to make money. You can also benefit from it with you, listen to Chen Yuanyuan singing Kunqu."

"Son-in-law~~"

Yunniang rubbed her painful forehead: "I just said casually, "Where is the ability to invite Sister Yuanyuan. If it were a son-in-law, it would be almost the same. In the whole capital, only the son-in-law has the same face. She can invite Sister Yuanyuan who washes her hands and stops singing Kunqu Opera again, and sing the Chen tune that has become a hit."

Li Mian was a little moved. He had the honor to hear Chen Yuanyuan sing Kunqu Opera once. In the past, he was dissatisfied with Chen Yuanyuan's Kunqu Opera, and after hearing that, he still missed it all.

Li Mian just thought about it and cut off this idea. Chen Yuanyuan obviously didn't want to retake her old career, so why bother to force others?

"Son-in-law."

At this time, the cheerful voice of Chi Nu came from the bow of the cruise ship's pleasure boat: "A red maple leaf floated from the lake."

Red maple leaves?

Li Mian and Yunniang heard the cheerful voices outside and were confused at the same time. It was the sunny time, and there was no autumn yet, where did the red maple leaves come from?

Li Mian stood up from the soft couch, pushed open the wooden door and walked out. He originally wanted to say that Chi Nu might have read it wrong, but when he looked at Chi Nu's little finger, he saw a red maple leaf.

Driving with the flow, I quickly floated to the pleasure boat in the downstream.

Li Mian had a long arm. He stretched out his hand and picked up the red maple leaves on the lake, took them in his hand and looked at them. He couldn't help but smile: "Where are red maple leaves, it is clearly maple leaves cut by others with red silk."

When Yunniang heard the word "Hong Ling", she quickly poked Chuyunji's head over, looking happy: "This trip didn't come in vain. She also picked up a piece of red silk. She should be able to sell it to the satin shop for a lot of money."

Yunniang suddenly exclaimed again: "Sister-in-law, look, there are still handwritings on it. Could it be that some young man is idle and has a vassal of the elegance of Hongye who conveys love."

Zhinu also looked over, but shook his double ring bun's head: "It's not like the handwriting of a young man, you can see Xiujuan's small calligraphy on it, it is obviously written by a lady."

Yunniang had studied in the inner study room in the past, and she was quite knowledgeable. After taking a closer look, she said a different view: "Although the handwriting is delicate, the fonts are full of grandeur. It should be a small calligraphy written by a young man."

When Li Mian heard the two personal maids beside him, he discussed whether they were an official lady or a young man, and he was vassal of Hongye's elegance.

He didn't care whether it was a lady or a young man. Being able to meet was also a fate.

“Life is short.”

Li Mian read out a few words on the Hongling and stretched out his palm: "Go and bring the brush. I just happened to be idle, so I added the second half of the sentence on it."

Zhinu put down the oar in his hand, ran into the cruise boat with a goose yellow skirt, and found the lake pen and dye in the Liangliu bookcase.

The dye spreads out in the red silk inkstone, grinds out thick ink, and puts it on the mahogany plate and takes it out.

Li Mian became interested and dipped a lake pen in a red silk inkstone and added a few words to the point of life.

Carpe Diem.

After Li Mian finished writing the words, he held them in his hand and waited for the words to dry. Yu Guang suddenly saw Yun Niang looking at him with a gaze, as if he wanted to leave and sell Hong Ling for money.

Li Mian said with a smile: "If you want Hong Ling, go back and take out a piece from the warehouse in the mansion for you. Today, you will have a rare pleasure. This red maple leaf cannot be given to you."

Yunniang first showed a disappointed expression, and soon smiled again: "The money you picked up for free will make people happy, but compared to the good mood of my son-in-law, I am happier than picking up the money."

Li Mian stretched out his finger and bounced Yunniang's clean little forehead again: "This is pretty good. I will take you two to Chen Yuanyuan's tofu stall to eat a bowl of tofu flowers."

Zhinu and Yunniang both laughed happily, one because they could eat delicious tofu again, and the other because they didn't have to spend money on their own.

The dye on the red maple leaves was dried, and Li Mian stretched out his hand and swung it gently, and continued to go downstream along the water flow again.

Li Mian waited until the red maple leaves disappeared, and took the two of them to the shore and walked towards Chen Yuanyuan's tofu stall.

It’s a pity that today I didn’t happen, Chen Yuanyuan was taken to her house by Shen Yixiu and did not come out to sell tofu flowers.

Li Mian had a life without seeing Chen Yuanyuan, and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. The Zhinu and Yunniang next to him were still happy.

If you can't eat the tofu flowers made by Chen Yuanyuan, you can also eat the cold tao next to you, which is also a rare and delicious food in the capital.

Li Mian, Sun Gong and Yuan Gong chatted for a few words. After finishing the meal, Leng Tao continued to take Zhinu and Yunniang to wander around the capital.
