Chapter 331: March Spring Flowers Wake Up Gradually

Chapter 331 The Spring Flowers of March Awaken Gradually

The spring rain was pattering outside the window, and in March, the Qinhuai River gradually began to rise.The rain came in a hurry, a teal was writhing in a mess on the noodles, and the maid, Kou'er, put away her clothes outside.Yuan Jin'er stood on the edge of the terrace facing the river and poked it with a branch, then turned to look at the flower boats passing by on the river.

The windows of the flower boats were open, and there were also feasts and singing, and girls and talented scholars who were disturbed by the heavy rain ran to the windows to look around, and some teased and hugged each other.Yuan Jin'er leaned against the railing and watched this scene. After a while, Yunzhu also came out to watch the rain. The wind blew the hair of the two women on the balcony, and the eyes of the talented people on the boat were also attracted. They looked over here, and at the same time He also received hostile gazes from several women.

Yuan Jiner suppressed her hair, curled her lips and snorted softly, and dragged Yunzhu back to the room, only opening the side window to watch the rain.

This is Yunzhu's room. There are needles and thread and some clothes on the bed. It is obvious that Yunzhu was sewing here before going out.These are old clothes for the adopted children. Some of them are torn, but Yunzhu is fine, so bring them back and mend them.Jin'er has no accomplishments in needlework, not because of her personality, but because she hasn't learned much. Women in brothels need to learn folk art and dance, and various skills to cater to men. If they mend clothes for customers at night, they will redeem themselves and marry The trend has become, mothers are not forbidden to learn, but they will not deliberately teach.What Yunzhu knows is the craftsmanship left behind when she was an official lady.

"I wanted to go to Qingyuan to have a look, but it's raining, so boring."

Yuan Jin'er knelt on the chair and dangled boredly.

"Come and mend clothes with me if you're bored."

"will not."

Yuan Jin'er had the same head, and smiled, feeling a little shameless.Yunzhu smiled, and leaned against the bed to pick up a needle and thread. She was dressed in elegant clothes and had a graceful figure, leaning against the bed as if she were a lady.Jin'er looked at it for a while, and became a little bored again. She drank tea, rolled around, bounced around for a while, and fiddled a few times like a guzheng.

"Rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, the waves scour the heroes, right and wrong ~ success or failure ~ turn your head to nothing... the green hills are still there, and the sunset is red for a few times..."

Although Yunzhu is good at folk art, but when she sings casually, Jin'er's singing is melodious and refreshing. Yunzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at her, and Jin'er sang half a song on her own, The song stopped when it reached Baifa Fishing Reef, and then it became a more casual hum.After humming the song, she hugged the pipa and glanced at Yunzhu: "Sister Yunzhu, don't you feel bored?"

"What's boring?" Yun Zhu bit off the silk thread and changed into another dress.

"It's boring to be quiet all day long, sister Yunzhu, you always enjoy yourself so much..."

"You feel bored, let's fight Shuanglu, it's okay to call Kouer in." Yunzhu smiled.

"It's not interesting to play with that all day long." Jin'er shook her head, put down her pipa, went to the bedside and helped Yun Zhu sort out a mended piece of clothing, then lay on the bed with open hands, and asked again after a while , "Sister Yunzhu, what was it like when you were an official lady?"

"Study women's training, become a female celebrity, play Shuanglu with others, hide and seek and so on." Yun Zhu paused, "Actually, it's the same as now, but I was still young at that time, and I found it interesting to do everything."

"Do you want to get married?"

"How old was I at that time?" Yun Zhu gave her a blank look, "But later on, although I don't know what it means in my heart, I probably understand that I am like my parents, spending my whole life with one person... but Boys are very boring, so I thought at that time, maybe getting married, just find a boy and talk all day, it will be very interesting.”

"Just talk all day."

"Just talking." Yunzhu laughed, then lowered his eyes, "Later... I hope someone can save me out. Who knows what it's like to be married, but I just heard people say that being married is very happy Things happened. At that time, I hoped that someone could redeem me and marry him, so I tried my best to learn the piano and sing, but after seeing a lot of things, I don’t think these things are any fun...Anyway, no matter when The things I think about now seem to be just a few simple things, so I don't feel bored now."

"Uh..." Jin'er rested her arms on her pillow, looking at the mosquito net above her head in distress.Yunzhu smiled: "You just want to go to Qingyuan to see what those talented scholars are saying? I have never seen you so boring."

"Hey." Jin'er grinned.

What the two were talking about was actually an incident that happened in Qingyuan yesterday.Yunzhu and Jin'er were there at the time, and accidentally bumped into a group of talented scholars who praised each other and wrote poems to each other. Heng will only be a coward, and has no real material or anything. He also said that he has not come out with any new words recently. Now, Yunzhu went to the courtyard next door to play the piano and sang the song "The Immortal of Linjiang".Rolling Yangtze River East Passing Water".

This is naturally a good word, but Ning Yi didn't show it to everyone in the past, but told Yunzhu in the form of singing.She intentionally let the people next door hear it, and after singing a song, there was no sound there. When a group of talented scholars asked whose new work it was, Yunzhu called the people in Qingyuan and told them that it was Ning Yi's lyrics , Pull Jin'er and leave.

She is not a showy character on weekdays, but only occasionally has such a reaction when it is related to Ning Yi.Jin'er wanted to hide there secretly to see the expressions on the faces of these talented people, and hugged the pillars and refused to leave, but she was finally pulled away by Yunzhu.

Jin'er is a playful and quarrelsome character. I didn't enjoy the pleasure of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger yesterday. This morning I was going to tell Ning Yi about it when he came over, but Ning Yi probably had something to do and didn't come in the morning.She just wanted to go to Qingyuan during the day to see if the news spread, but it rained heavily again, which was really depressing.After laughing, she blinked her eyes: "Sister Yunzhu, tell me, he didn't come this morning, did the one in his family give birth?"

"Ah..." Yunzhu accidentally stuck a needle in his finger, put it in his mouth and sucked it, and then angrily slapped Jin'er who was looking over with great interest.

"Sister Yunzhu, you care too."

"Of course I care." Yunzhu replied softly.

"Men are really annoying." Jin'er turned her gaze to the top of the mosquito net and said this sentence slowly, "He didn't even say he married you, why do you still like him..." This is not a question, it's similar Things, the two have talked about it many times.They are not feminists. It is really difficult for Ning Yi to marry her, but there will always be some expectations in his heart.

Yunzhu was quiet for a while: "Jin'er, you know that Li Heng is very good at everything, right?"

"Well, I admit it."

"But he's not that good at all."

Jin'er's eyes widened, she turned over abruptly, lay there, twisted her hands together, and looked at Yunzhu: "Sister Yunzhu, what about you?"

Yunzhu pursed her lips, and kicked her lightly: "I didn't say that! I mean... keeping a woman outside is not a problem for those talented people you and I know, right?"

"Hey, um."

"He's very annoying, he looks like he doesn't know what to do, and he can't get over it in his heart. Although it can't be seen on the surface..."

"Uh...it seems a little bit." Jin'er thought for a while, "Tch, big man, it's really useless."

"I like it very much." After a while, Yunzhu stopped her needlework, lowered her head and smiled, and said softly, "I'm afraid he didn't realize it himself, but I like it very much. Those things that are very powerful to him, I just think it should be, of course it doesn’t matter if it’s not great. But it’s the fact that he’s not that powerful at all, Jin’er, I really like it.”

She blinked her eyes: "Liheng is calm all the time, but...maybe he really stayed in Jinfeng Building for a long time, only this matter, I saw it early in the morning, maybe he himself I can see it, but even if I can see it, there is nothing he can do. I think, if I can see him like this, let alone Nie Yunzhu who is now a good graduate, even if I am still the former lady of the official family, no matter what happens next So, I also recognize it..."

After she said this, she continued to mend her clothes with her head down. The rain was still falling. Jin'er lay there looking at her for a while, and finally sighed: "You..."

The spring rain submerged this small building and the entire Jiangning City in a mist.Su Zhai, the small courtyard where Ning Yi and his wife lived, was going through a half-morning hustle and bustle, because Su Tan'er had abdominal pain in the morning, and thought she was about to give birth. After the midwife took it, she found it was a false alarm, but The real childbirth, I am afraid that it will be in these two days, the midwife is retained to live in the mansion, and Ning Yi is also calming his wife's emotions in the room.At the same time, a strange rumor was being spread among several specific people in the second and third rooms of the Su family. This was the news about Ning Yi having an affair with a conscientious famous prostitute. The source of the news is temporarily unknown.

"Is it true?"

"I do not know……"

"If this is true..."

"It can be big or small, think about it clearly..."

"The last chance to break the game..."

The rumors in a small area in the dark did not disturb Ning Yi and everyone in Dafang for the time being, but also in this afternoon, amidst the increasing rainfall, a fight at one end of Jiangning City, under the cover of the rain, It happened in several courtyards in the city.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. These courtyards belong to a fairly large gang in Jiangning City. There is a difference in one word, it is called "Hundred Swords League".

But the strength is obviously much weaker.

Now the courtyard of the Hundred Swords League is full of corpses and blood. The ones who rushed in were more than a dozen men in black coir raincoats, some with burdens on their backs. They seemed to be dressed as travelers.The generals under Cheng Lie were all dead in the fight just now, now half of his body is covered in blood, holding a long knife that has been chopped off, leaning against the pillars in the main hall, watching the approaching men holding a pair of axes The strong man: "Who are you..."

"Hey, after you die, remember grandpa's name... Grandpa's name is Li Kui! Anyone who dares to touch my brother will pay for his life!"

The giant ax slammed down!

On the street outside the door, with a bang, a plaque with the words "Baidaomeng" fell to the ground in the rain. Xi Junyu, who was also wearing a coir raincoat, looked back and chatted with a man next to him. , a carriage came from the side of the street, and several people got out of the carriage, all wearing black coir raincoats that not only sheltered from the rain but also concealed their own characteristics.The first person was tall and tall, wearing a bamboo hat and carrying a spear behind his back. Although there was a rather handsome face under the hat, it seemed that there was always a sadness hidden in it.

Xi Junyu cupped his hands: "A few brothers have also arrived, Brother Lin, you are from Tokyo, what do you think of Jiangning? I know this place well, I will find a good restaurant later, and I will clean up the dust for my brothers."

A few people arched their hands, and the man at the front nodded, "Yes", and turned his head to look at the courtyard next to him. Although the courtyard door was closed and it was raining heavily, he could still hear what was going on inside. .

"Brother Xi, we came to Jiangning this time for business. I have nothing to say about your personal revenge. Don't miss the business."

"Naturally, Brother Xie Lin taught..."

"It's okay." The other party reached out, patted him on the shoulder, and then walked past him.

Xi Junyu breathed a sigh of relief. Although everyone has been referred to as brothers these days, for a long time, he still has an inexplicable sense of fear and awe towards certain people, such as military advisers, Another example is the former——

80 Imperial Army instructors!
