Seeing that his own girl was being snubbed, he carried the maid ring and said softly: "The girl is only from a poor background, otherwise what are these three young ladies worth?" Although it is rumored that she is a talented woman in Kyoto, we have not seen it, and the slave maid thinks that she may not have the talent of a girl, and she may be a blind cat who catches a dead mouse. ”

The corners of Liu E's mouth are tightened, she is from a Jinling family, she followed her father into Beijing last year, and only then did she start to communicate with the ladies, but whether it is writing and painting, there are always people who mention Luo Baoying. Last time in Liu's house, all the girls tried calligraphy, and Mrs. Yang was like this, saying that there was a big gap between her handwriting and Luo Baoying, and that the words were not right. But she is also a talented woman, and she has a good reputation in Jinling, and she has not fully revealed herself here, so she was suppressed by Luo Baoying, who has never met before, how can she have no resentment in her heart?

Now I see that the appearance is nothing more than that.

Reaching out to support her bun, she thought to herself, this skirt will not be worse than Luo Baoying when she wears it.

The ladies walked to the lotus pond one after another, and stopped to watch along the mahogany railing built on the shore of the pond.

The pond of the Wei family is not big, fortunately, the structure is exquisite, there is a huge pavilion in the center of the lake, which can accommodate twenty or thirty people, and the pink and white double-petaled lotus flowers are planted all around, reflecting the green lotus leaves, the colors intersect, and the heart is relaxed. In addition to a wooden bridge leading to the pond bank, there are rain curtains in the other three places that continue to slide down from the top, sitting in it, not only cool, but also a real sense of watching the lotus in the rain.

The first guests who came back could not be praised, Liu E took a look, and said loudly to Fan: "I heard that there are three major craftsmen in the world, one of them is surnamed Zhong, who is good at building pavilions, like Qingyun Tower in Lingzhou, and the Double Shadow Building in Hezhou, all of which are from his hands. ”

Fan was surprised: "Miss Liu Wu is very knowledgeable, this is indeed the pavilion built by Master Zhong twenty years ago. ”

Liu E was a little proud.

She likes to read since she was a child, and her father also satisfies her, so that people search for books all over Daliang, her vision is not narrow, she doesn't know that Luo Baoying is just a face? She turned her head to look at her, and asked: "Third Young Lady, I heard that you are very knowledgeable, and when it comes to the three major craftsmen, in addition to remembering one surnamed Qin, I can't remember the other one, can you help me?" ”

The crowd fell silent.

Since ancient times, women have no talent is virtue, not to say that they don't pay attention to talent, but the more important thing is obviously women's morality, to the Liang Dynasty, the girls of the family are even more at home, and the study is also a shallow taste, like many ladies and girls in the Wei family can not answer, they can't help but feel ashamed, of course, there is no shortage of people who know and wait to see jokes.

Luo Baoying was calm and calm, and said with a slight smile: "The surname is Xiao, if I remember correctly, he studied under the Mo family, and also worked in the Ministry of Industry for a while, but now I don't know where he is." ”

When Liu E heard this answer, the corners of her mouth curled: "Sure enough, she is worthy of the third young lady." ”

It seems that he still has some ability.

Fan's brows twisted slightly, feeling that this Liu Wu girl was a little aggressive, but Cheng liked it, you must know that their second room has been pressed by the third room, although this Liu E is a concubine, but her father is a third-grade official waiter, I heard that Liu E is also more favored at home, because the Liu family has a total of two concubines, after Mrs. Liu's death, Lord Liu was raised as a concubine. And her self-confidence is really not inferior to Luo Baoying, or it is not bad to marry her son, her eyes are dripping on Liu E's body.

Fan beckoned everyone to go to the pavilion to view the flowers, where a lotus feast was set up.

Luo Baoying sat on the edge of the pavilion, leaning on the railing to throw fish food into the water, and instantly a group of koi fish swam in, colorful, golden, red and black, like a colorful painting.

The skirt dragged on the ground, flashing with a cold light, revealing a pair of aqua blue embroidered shoes of the same color as the undergarment at the bottom, with two South China Sea pearls on the toe, which was rich and luxurious, Liu E glanced at it, and then withdrew her gaze, she should know that one day she could live such a life.

And Luo Baoying obviously gave her more confidence.

The two were separated by the farthest distance in the pavilion, Luo Baoying was a little noticed, and her eyes fell on Liu E, but she saw that she had turned around, thinking of the previous provocation, she smiled disdainfully, even if she didn't answer correctly just now, what could she say? There are people outside the world, and she is as small as dust compared to Mr. Shenji, and she doesn't even dare to ask him for knowledge, because she knows too many things in the world, and although she is proud, she also knows her own shortcomings.

However, some people don't know the height of the sky, and they show off with a little knowledge.

In the future, it will definitely be a problem.

She spilled all the fish food.

Everyone watched the flowers and laughed and didn't know who could get up, saying that at this time, only appreciating the flowers and not listening to the music was always lacking, so the girls went up to stroke the qin, and played them one by one, and finally it was Liu E's turn, she moved the lotus step to sit in front of the yaoqin, raised her hand and gently supported the strings.

As if seeing the beautiful jade, the girls have set their eyes on her hands, only to see the fingers slender like spring onions, at this time they can't help but feel envious, and when the song is played, they are even more surprised, they can't hold their breath, Cheng saw this and whispered a few words in Yahuan's ear, and the little girl ran quickly from the wooden bridge to the pond bank.

The sound of the piano is as cold as snow in the mountains, and like rain in the clouds, flowing out one by one, dispelling the dryness brought by the hot summer, even Luo Baoying has to admit that Liu E's piano skills are good, this is the second skill she showed today, is she trying to marry Wei Heng?

Thinking of Cheng's face, Wei Lian's brainlessness, and Wei Heng's narrow-mindedness, Luo Baoying shook her head, I don't know if this Miss Liu's luck will really be so bad.

The pavilion is not far from the shore, and Wei Lang, Wei Heng, Wei Chong and several sons are also watching the lotus nearby.

Hearing the news that Yahuan got from her mother, and there was a beautiful piano sound in her ears, Wei Heng couldn't help but feel a little curious about this Liu E, if it was really as his mother said, then Liu E was born no worse than Luo Baoying, then he really wanted to take a look.

After all, after a while after leaving, he missed the benefits of having a wife, concubines were different, and he should have had a child at this age.

Liu E finished playing the song and won full applause.

Not to mention the impression of her, he was still impressed by the piano artist, Cheng smiled: "I didn't know that there was such an outstanding girl in Kyoto, and she was also likable to look at." Saying that, he looked at Luo Baoying, "It's all girls playing the piano, and the ladies haven't had one yet, Baoying, why don't you also present a song." ”

It seemed to be natural, but Luo Baoying guessed that she was trying to suppress her arrogance.

Everyone stared, including Liu E, who couldn't push back, and said with a smile: "Then I'll be ugly." ”

Sitting in front of Yaoqin, she also showed her hands.

Compared with Liu E, there is a different charm, Liu E's is more delicate, like a flower branch that breaks when it is broken, but she is weak and contains strength, which reminds people of the demeanor she once rode on horseback, which is not something that a weak woman can do. Before she played, the girls were already secretly looking forward to it.

There was a moment of silence, and the melodious sound of the piano sounded and reached the shore.

A song of spring, like the warm sun, gently sprinkled in the pavilion, in this heat, people yearn for that season to go to the spring day, fresh clothes and angry horses, galloping in the mountains. Everyone else was intoxicated, but Liu E was disdainful, because she felt that Luo Baoying was not better than herself, or rather, she played better.

But at this moment, a flute sound came from the shore, Qingyue melodious, like a cloud crane breaking through the sky, blending into the spring day.

Luo Baoying's hand froze slightly, and then in an instant, she knew that it was Wei Lang who heard her playing the piano, and she didn't know what he had in mind, but she was already a young woman, so she didn't have to compete with the girls, so why not play the same song at this time. Her fingers plucked the strings with joy, and the beautiful music flowed down the mountain like a stream.

In this spring, suddenly there is a pair of fairy couples, as if they can see them under the moon, see them riding horses side by side, see them sleeping together, the full of sweet taste filled in the sound of the piano, the sound of the flute, let everyone be immersive, some girls even can't help blushing, but in their hearts can't help but look forward to when they can have such strong and deep feelings.

When the song was finished, everyone was still immersed in it, and a lady smiled and said, "Needless to say, the flute must be Master Wei." ”

Wei Lang's talent is obvious to all, and the champion of the year doesn't know how many girls' hearts he has taken.

Luo Baoying's face flushed, but she still said generously: "Xianggong is much better than me in both playing the piano and playing the flute, if you think you can play this song well, it is mostly his credit." ”

Everyone laughed and said she was modest.

The topic began to revolve around Luo Baoying, Liu E was secretly annoyed, originally Wei Lang didn't stretch out her hand, everyone would definitely compare her with Luo Baoying, but now what limelight does she have? It can be seen that Luo Baoying is really married to a good husband, not to mention becoming a cabinet minister at a young age, and having such talent, speaking of which, this flute is indeed played well, even if Liu E has a high heart, she is ashamed of herself.

Because of this, Luo Baoying's spring song is particularly vivid.

I don't know what Wei Lang was like, Liu E heard a few girls around her muttering, thinking that she had heard of his name early in the morning, but she had never seen it, but she was a little curious.

After seeing the lotus flowers on the pavilion and having used the feast, the ladies came down from the wooden bridge and planned to look elsewhere in the garden.

Seeing that Wei Lang was not leaving, Wei Heng said lightly: "I was in the limelight just now, and I still want to show my face in front of the girls?" Are you trying to pick a concubine among them? ”

Now that these girls know what he can do, Wei Heng really can't not hate him. These three brothers have been his nemesis since they came from Jiangnan, and they don't know how to converge yet, obviously it's a gathering of female dependents, what kind of excitement does he play the flute to? Won't the two of them close the door?

Wei Lang raised his eyebrows: "I'm just on a whim, as for the concubine, that's what you like, I won't lose Bao Ying in my life, you still care about your future wife." ”

Wei Heng frowned, and was about to speak, but Luo Baoying saw them and walked over quickly.

called the second brother coldly, and she went to Wei Lang's side and said softly: "Why did you suddenly play the flute just now, startling me and almost playing a wrong note." ”

The girl tilted her head, her beautiful lips like water chestnuts hung sweet, although it was reproach more like coquettishness, and her towering breasts were against the man's chest, and the pear blossoms were about to come out. Wei Heng glanced at his throat and couldn't help but roll, turned his head and was about to leave, but his eyes were attracted by a girl not far away.

He was born extremely beautiful, with picturesque eyebrows, clear and lovely, and he couldn't help but lose his soul for a while, but when he looked at it again, his whole heart fell into the ice cellar.

Because Liu'e wasn't looking at him.

She was looking at Wei Lang.

Wei Lang was holding Luo Baoying's thin waist with one hand, bowed his head slightly and spoke: "Did those people envy you just now?" ”

"Are you doing this?" Luo Baoying poked his fingers into his chest, pouted, and said, "I've never seen you show off like this, don't you know what it means to cover up?" If you accompany me to play the piano today, maybe some people will say behind their backs that we are just doing it for others to see, maybe it doesn't fit in. ”

Wei Lang laughed softly: "Then let's quarrel in public last time, okay?" ”

More and more nonsense, Luo Baoying couldn't help but smack him, turned around and said, "I have to go, there are a few ladies who are very good, I want to make a few more friends." ”

Seeing that her rosy lips were like cherries, seductive and delicious, he pulled her in, turned sideways to block her, and lowered his head to kiss her.

Luo Baoying muttered, "I have to wipe my mouth again." ”

He didn't pay attention to it, and only let go of her when he kissed her enough: "You will be free in a while, come to the big study to find me." ”

The pampering on his face, let him look at it like this, his whole body had to soften, Liu E's heart beat violently, and when she saw Luo Baoying leaving, she hurriedly turned around. She now knows why those people always mention Luo Baoying, because she is really married to a man who is too outstanding.

is not only outstanding, but also so good to her, giving face in front of everyone.

She sighed, not knowing that she would be blessed with such a blessing in the future.

Wei Heng watched her blend into the female family again, and didn't look at him, his face couldn't help but turn blue, thinking of the original Luo Baozhang, the same is true, and Jin Huirui, her sister once told her that Jin Huirui deliberately fell into the water in front of Wei Lang, just to marry Wei Lang. Maybe she's right, if there is him Wei Heng in this world, there shouldn't be Wei Lang!

His eyes narrowed, and he strode away.

The weather is hot, Wei Lang drank a cup of herbal tea in the pavilion on the west side of the garden, rested a little and said to Jiuli: "You send someone to bring the file on my desk, I want to go to the big study to check some things, in addition, ask the kitchen to make a lotus leaf chicken at night, there is no banquet today, maybe I am afraid of being greasy, but the lady likes to eat." ”

Jiuli agreed and left.

Tiandong held an umbrella for Wei Lang, the two went to the study, Tiandong was guarding outside, Wei Lang walked slowly inside to look for the rows of bookshelves, and I don't know how long it took, I suddenly heard some sounds in the innermost, strange, as if I had collided with something. He knew that the study was very large, and there was a small door near the west, so he thought that Wei Chong was coming.

Wei Chong's place of residence is opposite, and there is no need to detour along the stone steps.

Unexpectedly, he saw a strange little girl half-sitting and half-lying on the bookshelf, he frowned and said, "May I ask which girl are you?" Why are you here? ”

"Where is this?" The little girl looked up at him and said confusedly, "How can I ......?"

She stumbled to her feet, and Wei Lang thought to herself, could it be that the ladies had been drinking just now? If it weren't for this, how could this girl be drunk, he was just about to open his mouth to shout Tiandong, but the little girl suddenly pounced, like a hungry wolf, he took several steps backwards to avoid it, and only heard her murmuring: "Master Weisan, hold me ......"

His face sank, and Tiandong's crisp voice outside the door sounded: "Young Master, Young Lady is here." ”

Luo Baoying stepped into the house with light steps, with a smile in her tone: "Third cousin, where are you, just help me find a book, I want to read Wu Qingcheng's chivalrous book, I heard that ......" She glanced over, only to see Wei Lang walking towards her quickly, not far away, there was a girl half-sitting there, leaning on the bookshelf, her clothes were messy, and she actually exposed a small half of her apricot yellow bandeau breast.

She froze and looked at Wei Lang in disbelief.

This girl, isn't it Liu E? How did she end up here?
