As soon as July passes, there is autumn in the air, and although it is still hot around noon, there are always a few wisps of fresh breeze and a few red leaves to remind the people of Sin'an that autumn is really coming.
On this day, Cheng Muyou was reading a book in the study, and suddenly heard Xun'er's cheerful shouts outside, "Sorry sister, you can be regarded as back, you have been gone for a few days, but you want to die Xun'er." ” Cheng Muyou then stood up from the table, pushed open the door and looked at the two people hugging outside, and sighed, "Do you want you to cherish your sister more, or do you want her to have more snacks in her package?"
” Xun'er stuck out her tongue and slipped off Jiang Xixi's body, and when her feet landed, the burden had been held in his hand, but he untied it and looked at it for a long time, only finding a bag of sugar horns, so he pouted and asked, "Sister Xixi, did you leave something behind, every time I came back from Bianliang before, my grandfather would pack a big bag of food for me, why is there only so little bit this time?"
” Jiang Xixi touched Xun'er's round bun, "Your grandfather is anxious now, where is there time to prepare food for you, this pack of sugar horns was bought by me on the road, you eat first, if it is not enough, I will go to Qinxiangzhai to buy some for you later." ” Xun'er opened the paper bag, took a candy horn and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and showed a happy smile on her face, "Why is my grandfather and his old man so anxious, is it because the DPRK is busy?"
” Cheng Muyou walked over and flicked a hammer on his head, "There are delicious foods that can't occupy your mouth, have you done your homework today, why don't you hurry to the study, I will take the test for you in a while." ” Xun'er glanced at her father timidly, grabbed the paper bag tightly and walked into the study, Cheng Muyou looked at Jiang Xixi, and asked softly, "The matter of the eldest brother is still not resolved?"
” Jiang Xixi shook his head and said softly, "For the sake of the eldest brother, the master doesn't think about the tea and food, and the whole person has lost a lot of weight, but the eldest brother still insists on marrying the girl and entering the door, and he also set the date without authorization, that is, the fifteenth day of this month, and he also said that he will let the adults and Xun'er pass by then." ” Cheng Muyou was stunned and said, "It's already like this, is he still going to do it?"
” Jiang Xixi covered her mouth and smiled, "This is not what the eldest brother meant, it is what the girl meant, but the eldest brother is now obedient to the bride who has not yet passed the door, and he will do what she says, and he will not take the old man's in his eyes at all." ” Cheng Muyou shook his head and smiled, "What is that woman's ability to make my honest brother obsessed with me to this point, I really want to go back and see if she is a flower or a willow." ” Jiang Xixi raised a finger and shook it a few times incomprehensibly, "I heard the lord say, this girl's can only be regarded as beautiful, and her talent is even more comparable to me, that is, Bai Ding, so while the lord is opposed to this marriage, he is also very puzzled in his heart, and he said that our eldest brother has fallen into evil, so he became a minister under the skirt of a flower girl." ” Cheng Muyou touched his chin, "Flower girl?
” Jiang Xixi nodded, "Didn't there be a peony flower market in Luoyang City two months ago, the eldest brother went with the people, and it was in that flower market that he met that girl." ” "Will someone like him still stage a scene of falling in love at first sight?"
"It's not that you fell in love at first sight and fell in love at first sight.
It is said that the girl was molested by several sons and brothers in Luoyang City that day, and the eldest brother rushed to protect her, and as a result, he beat those people to the head with one enemy and three enemies.
The girl regarded her eldest brother as a life-saving benefactor and regarded him as a hero in her heart, and he would not marry. ” Hearing Jiang Xixi say this, Cheng Muyou's face was even more surprised, "You said that he defeated three disciples in order to protect the flowers?"
How is this possible, when I was a child, the two of us went to the academy together, but whenever I met a fight with my classmates, he hid behind me, even if he was taller than me, he still had to rely on me to protect him, so many years, I have never seen him quarrel with someone, how did he become a flower messenger.
He thought about it for a moment and sighed again, "Maybe it's really deep in love and can't help it, so I abandoned the rules I have followed for many years and was impulsive." ” Jiang Xixi shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows?"
However, the eldest brother does not live in the mansion now, but moved with the woman, and has not been back for a long time. ” Cheng Muyou smiled bitterly, "But I can understand why he is so stubborn, he has grown up to his current age, to put it mildly, it is called being cautious, it is ugly, that is a nest, everyone says that he has no opinions, he is a good son who obeys his father's words, and now he has suddenly become a big hero in a person's heart, and his mind naturally swells up instantly, so no matter what his father says, he will not listen." ” Jiang Xixi groaned, "Then this marriage can't be stopped?"
” "Since my heart has been moved, how can I take it back, but even if the door is not right, my father will not object to this."
Jiang Xixi shook her head lightly, "I don't know, the master only said that when we meet her, we will understand why he opposes this marriage."
After that, she looked at Cheng Muyou, "My lord, when I entered the mansion just now, I saw that Li Chengye went out happily, did he get the silver from the Liu family?"
” Hearing her ask, Cheng Muyou's face suddenly darkened, "The crescent moon was taken away by Li Derang, and the Liu family is now considered extinct, so after the newly appointed county magistrate in Liaoyang sold their family's property and house, those who should be repaid should be repaid, and those who should be nationalized were nationalized, and Li Chengye naturally got his share of the money." ” Jiang Xixi couldn't bear it, "Is it true that the crescent moon won't come back?"
” Cheng Muyou sighed lightly, "I don't know, but although Li Derang killed her whole family, he was extremely attentive to her, and I think she shouldn't suffer in Liaoguo." ” Jiang Xixi bit her lip, "But Li Derang is the enemy who killed her whole family, if she knows about it one day, wouldn't it be even more painful?"
Speaking of this, she sighed deeply, "My lord, there is one more thing that I still haven't figured out, you said that the old way was pretended by someone else, who is that person?"
” Cheng Muyou turned his gaze to the wall next to him, on the white wall, the leaves of the brocade had turned from green to yellow, rustling in the breeze.
Jiang Xixi suddenly realized, "Is he Miss Yan?"
She was stunned for a moment, then looked at Cheng Muyou again, "It's just that only adults recognize her, and neither I nor Lord Liu recognize her." ” Cheng Muyou was stunned, his heart seemed to be surging into a stormy sea, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
