Chapter 24: Jealousy
Shangguan Li'er smiled lightly: "Senior brother, your idea is too cheesy!"
Yan Rui said with a smile: "Li'er, senior brother, I am a bay of water, I like to follow the trend, and be at peace with what happens, if I don't like anything, I will try my best to change, if I can't change, I will resign myself to fate, go with the flow, if the environment requires me to be what kind of person." To put it bluntly, I am a layman, but there are vulgar love and hatred, vulgar bitterness, vulgar ups and downs, vulgar return; vulgar people will sometimes be stubborn and unyielding, courageous, and vulgar people will sometimes seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and enjoy themselves, vulgar is the way of the senior brother, and it is also the soul of the senior brother, because of this, the senior brother will never embarrass himself, let alone despise himself. ”
Shangguan Li'er listened to Yan Rui's words, which was very meaningful, and even enlightened, her heart flashed, and she glanced at Yan Rui gratefully, she pondered for a while, took a long breath, raised her face, nodded, and said softly: " Senior brother, I understand what you mean, you can rest assured, my Shangguan Li'er is not a sentimental and trouble-seeking person, I figured it out, don't people live to pursue happiness and joy, instead of nostalgia for troubles and sorrows, there will always be some bad things in life, there will be setbacks, there will be regrets, there will be unsatisfactory, but everything will pass, no big deal, no matter what, people should be more positive, sunny, I think, even if the world has betrayed me and hurt me, but at least the sun above my head shines on my body, I am warm, it has not betrayed meI am still young, my life is still long, long, there are still a lot of delicacies waiting for me to taste, there are still a lot of beautiful clothes waiting for me to wear, there are a lot of magical scenery waiting for me to enjoy, I will do a lot of meaningful things, I will also find a man who really cares for me and I love to marry myself, I will give birth to a lot of lovely babies, I will enjoy my family, I will die peacefully, I believe that my life will be happy, brother, think about it, there are so many beautiful things in this future, waiting for me to pursue, to experience, to enjoy, I am too busy to be busyWhere is there time to be pained and sad for someone who doesn't care about me?"
Shangguan Li'er muttered, looking into the distance, smiling at the corners of her lips, and her big eyes with tears flashing with a strange light.
Yan Rui listened to Shangguan Li'er say this, and did not think that there would be a trace of naivety and stupidity in her words, but a young girl, a beautiful soul, a beautiful yearning for the future, and hope for happiness, his rich emotions and soul were immediately infected and moved by Shangguan Li'er's enthusiasm, his heart trembled slightly, staring at Shangguan Li'er, his eyes were full of love, and he couldn't help but shed tears of pity.
Shangguan Li'er stood on the edge of the cliff, surrounded by a layer of faint golden light of the sunset, facing the slightly hot sea breeze, her skirt fluttering, her jade face was tranquil, and she was outstanding, like a fairy, after a pause, she turned her face sideways, and saw Yan Rui's eyes infatuated, staring at her tenderly like water, she was slightly stunned, that is, her heart trembled, her pretty face was slightly red, she stared at it brightly, and said: " Senior brother, your sword flying skills have become more and more powerful recently, however, my little sister has occasionally had experiences these days, I really want to find someone to try the depth, why don't we compare!" After that, he took out the Qingluan Sword, threw it into the air, and then jumped forward, standing lightly on the Qingluan Sword, smiling, and looking at Yan Rui defiantly.
Yan Rui saw that Shangguan Li'er had regained her lively and playful temperament, and he was overjoyed, and shouted with a smile: "Okay!" He drew his blood sword, sacrificed it in the air, and jumped up.
Shangguan Li'er smiled and said, "Let's go!" recited the sword technique, and the sword went first.
Yan Rui shouted, "Lian'er, slow down, don't fall!" and hurriedly chased after him.
As soon as Yan Rui and Shangguan Li'er left, from behind a boulder behind the cliff, a person slowly walked out, only to see him blushing his face, biting his lip, tears in his eyes, his hands clenched into fists, he looked at Shangguan Li'er and Yan Rui's gradually distant figure with red eyes, and listened to Shangguan Li'er's long-lost copper bell-like laughter in the distance.
"Alas, if you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place, what is the trouble when the matter has come to this!"
Wei Ning was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around, only to see Wei Qingyuan standing behind him, his brows furrowed, and he looked at him with pity.
Wei Ning was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly looked at him, and asked in a snort: "Second uncle, why are you, why are you here?"
Wei Qingyuan stared at Wei Ning and asked, "Is it very painful to see Li'er and Yan Rui together?"
Wei Ning nodded, but then quickly shook his head.
Wei Qingyuan asked again: "Are you unforgettable for Li'er and still love her?"
Wei Ning's eyes turned red at once, and tears flowed down, first shaking his head, and then nodding hesitantly.
Wei Qingyuan saw Wei Ning's sad appearance, and his heart was not happy, but he didn't know how to comfort him, after a pause, he patted Wei Ning's shoulder, sighed lightly, and said with a wry smile: "Silly boy, there is no regret medicine in the world, since things are already like this, what's the use of you thinking nonsense, sad and sad, aren't you looking for unhappiness, you better go back and live a good life with Mei'er!"
Although Shangguan Li'er was hit by Weining's empathy and farewell, under Yan Rui's careful care and comfort, coupled with her open-minded nature, it didn't take long for her to let go, recover her cheerful and bright personality, and be happy again.
In this way, another period of time has passed.
This day is the ninetieth birthday of the old lady Han of Weimen.
Yan Rui took a few juniors and disciples up the mountain early to dig up the fern roots, washed the fern roots, put them in the pestle trough, mashed the juice, condensed the juice, and then made longevity fern cake to celebrate the birthday of Mrs. Han.
Shangguan Li'er has superb cooking skills and superb means, and she volunteered to take the heavy responsibility of being in charge.
The next night, in the courtyard of Weiliumen, the lights were bright, the dishes and chopsticks were ready, everyone gathered together, talking, frolicking, helping, the voices of people were boiling, so lively, revealing a festive atmosphere.
Shangguan Li'er is waving a knife like the wind in the kitchen, dancing with a spoon, showing off her nose, and cooking and stir-frying all kinds of delicious dishes with fragrant sweat.
Yan Rui worked as a cook on the side and worked hard.
