Bitong has never been on an equal footing with her master, and she is so close to her. She is busy struggling to stand up, but she is held down by Cheng Xueyan.
"What's the hurry? Sit down and talk..."
Cheng Xueyan said and lay on the ground.
This grass is really soft and thick, like a good carpet, and it is cool, driving away the heat of early autumn. She sighed contentedly and closed her eyes comfortably.
The girl seemed to be a little... indecent, and Bitong wrinkled her nose, but... she carefully tidied up her skirt and lay down gently next to the girl.
...It's so comfortable!
She narrowed her eyes, looked at the layers of branches and leaves above her head, and smelled the faint aroma of grass leaves... It seemed that she had been so comfortable when she was very young.
She also closed her eyes and hummed a song she had heard when she was a child.
"I am a lotus girl, and I don't cry like rain. If you see the tears of the lotus, do you know how bitter the lotus is? I am originally a lotus girl, but I just promise you. Tonight, I will sing for you, and every word is sad..."
Cheng Xueyan opened her eyes: "What song is this?"
Bitong shook her head: "It was my childhood mother who taught me to sing..."
Cheng Xueyan tilted her body: "Why have you never heard you mention your family?"
Bitong's eyelashes trembled and opened her eyes slightly, but looked at the wisteria swing.
"Do you remember the story of Mr. Dai's epileid? When I was very young, my mother also told me the story of wisteria. A long time ago, a beautiful girl prayed for a marriage to Yue Lao. Yue Lao entrusted her with a dream, saying that when spring comes, she will meet a man in white in the woods of the back mountain. He is her love. When the spring was warm and the flowers bloomed, the girl really came to the backwoods alone. But until it was almost dark, I didn't see any man in white, but I was bitten on my ankle by a snake in the grass and couldn't walk. It was getting darker and darker, and she was very scared. But just then, a man in white appeared and sucked out the poisonous blood with his mouth. The girl thought that Yue Lao really didn't lie to her. However, the man in white was poor, and their marriage was opposed by the girl's parents, and the two finally jumped off the cliff and died. But the next year, a tree grew on the edge of their emotional cliff, wrapped with a vine, and every spring, a string of flowers bloomed, purple and blue, as bright as clouds. Later generations called it Wisteria. Wisteria flowers need to be entangled in trees and cannot survive alone. Some people say that wisteria is the incarnation of a girl, and the tree is the incarnation of a man in white..."
Cheng Xueyan looked at the wisteria: "Why are the stories of flowers so sad and beautiful?"
Bitong looked gloomy: "I used to tell a story, but later... my mother jumped off the cliff with a man I had never seen before. At that time, I was only five years old. I naively thought that wisteria would grow on the cliff, but when I waited, my father said that I was not his own son and wanted to sell me to the brothel. Fortunately, Chengfu is choosing a maid. In order to make more money, my father sold the death deed..."
"I'm sorry to mention your sadness..."
Bitong smiled sadly: "What's sad? It's been so many years, and I can't even remember my mother's appearance. The worst thing is that I don't remember her death day. I only remember it's autumn..."
Long silence, only leaves are rustling, the grass is shallow, and occasionally small insects jump on people's faces. The wind blew and moved the branches and leaves, and the sun came out, which pierced people's eyes.
Cheng Xueyan turned her face slightly and looked at a small grass grassflies on the grass leaves. The little grass-fly is cutely green, staring at her with round eyes, and the two tentacles swinging thoughtfully. It's still so small, but winter is coming...
"Girl, girl..." Bitong whispered in her ear and gently pulled her sleeve.
She opened her eyes in a daze and found that she didn't know when she fell asleep.
"Girl, listen..."
She raised her ears...
A sharp and thin sound floated over the grass leaves, which sounded like it was by the forest.
"...What is she? How dare you say something to me?
This sound... seems to be Du Yingzi! Shouldn't the "she" in the words refer to herself? It is possible, because besides himself, who else can make Mr. Du so furious? Besides, I was just stimulated by her again...
She immediately turned over and sat up, but was held down by Bitong. The two exchanged glances and walked a few steps there, hiding behind the tree.
"It is said that the jade fox's eyes are higher than the top, but I think he is blind and went to find her..."
This must be said to be yourself! It looks very resentful. Is it complaining that the jade fox didn't go to her place? Jade Fox, how many peach blossom debts do you owe?
Why does grandma have to be angry with such a person? She has already been famous. Alas, who makes her beautiful?
This sound is a little strange. Who is it?
Bitong whispered in her ear, "Really..."
Really... Du Yingzi's personal girl. A thin-eyed woman immediately appeared in front of her. She usually had a white face like her master, and her waist was very thin. She walked deliberately. Except for Du Mizhen and the people around her, she did not talk to anyone for fear of losing her identity.
It's strange that the girl in Cheng's house is more or less similar to her master. Sometimes even if she doesn't know which room she is in, as long as she says a few words or looks at the expression on her face, you can easily guess. Is it really close to Zhu and black?
"I have a fart reputation!"
Du Yingzi pulled out a high note.
Cheng Xueyan even threw out her "fart" when she heard it, which showed that she was really angry. It's all right, and there is no outsider. There is no need to worry, so Coco vents vigorously, and she is waiting to listen to the following with great interest.
"I don't know how long your eyes are, but they say that she is beautiful. In my opinion, she can't even compare with my Yixue. He is as thin as a needle. At first glance, he is a blepless person. His face is as white as a dead man. His big face with mustard seeds has double walnut-sized eyes and pointed monkey cheeks. Is there anyone else?
Cheng Xueyan's comparison, um, it's really not human.
"How can it be like my Yi Xue? She wants to have a look, a figure, and a lively beauty embryo. When she was a child, she always dreamed of things in heaven. Other fortune tellers said that she was a fairy. Can she compare with her?
Cheng Xueyan is puzzled that I don't compare with anyone...
"Isn't it? Our girls have become better and better in recent years, and even if they are in the palace, they are not inferior to those women!"
She really spoke in a hurry. Her voice was actually the same as her master. If she hadn't been there, she would have thought Du Mizhen was talking to herself.
"Isn't it? This green is better than blue. I was the first beauty in Canghan in those years. There were countless people who came to my house to ask for marriage. Didn't the jade fox wander under my window every day and hide in the tree to look at me? He begged me to open the door several times, but I didn't!"
Du Yingzi is 29 this year. If you talk about "that year"... It should look like 17 or 18 years, and the jade fox himself has not seen it. It seems that it is only in his early 20s. According to Du Yingzi... Oh, my God, this jade fox is too precocious...
"Isn't it?" Zhen'er immediately echoed: "Grandma just married a little early, thanks to that, otherwise the begging person will squeeze the house..."
"It's all in the past, and now I'm too lazy to think about it. A real beauty should know how to hide her glory and keep a low profile. How can she be like her? She is swaggering around and has been rested by people. Isn't she calling the jade fox to let others know that she is as beautiful as a fairy? Even if she is a remnant of flowers and willows, some people are rare. She thinks that this can raise her value? She hummed and suddenly changed the topic: "Oh... Did you think that man was really a jade fox last night?"
Cheng Xueyan understands why Du Yingzi hates herself so much, but she is also an old man. Jealousy is a child's trick.
"Who knows? Anyway, everyone is saying that it is the jade fox. Well, in fact, grandma just didn't expect that the jade fox was chased by someone at that time and went to her in a panic. According to his affection with his grandmother, he would go to grandma anyway. Besides, grandma's Ying Yixuan is so close to Guan Juguan. How can he come here?
"You're right," Du Yingzi's voice finally slowed down: "This jade fox has been passed down for so many years. I really don't know what it looks like, but she saw it..."
Cheng Xueyan is confused. Isn't she "affecating"? Why didn't she even see her appearance?
She couldn't help secretly leaning down, but saw Zhener take out a small target mirror from her arms. Du Yingzi took it, closed her hair, and took a piece of red paper and squeezed it.
"Grandma is more beautiful than that man even if she doesn't dress up..."
She really missed the opportunity to flatter. When Du Yingzi withdrew her eyes with satisfaction, she also took the opportunity to take two glances.
Cheng Xueyan found that Bitong's body trembled slightly, but when she looked back, she blushed and couldn't help laughing.
She pulled Bitong's sleeve and was ready to leave, but she saw You Cui rushing on the maple bridge.
"Sister You Cui, where are you going?"
At first sight, he is a person in Du Mizhen's room, and his mouth is really sweet.
"Go find the big girl. I just went to Yanran Pavilion, but I didn't see anyone. Along the way, some people saw her coming to Xinyuan..."
Even if it is so far away, you can see that the faces of the master and servant are white.
"This way..." Zhen'er's tongue was a little knotted and hurriedly looked at Du Yingzi.
Although Du Yingzi was a guilty thief, she still stared at Zhener fiercely: "Really stayed here with me for a long time, and I didn't see anyone. It's probably someone misread..."
"How come? Xiyu said that he saw her swing here with his own eyes..."
He chewed his tongue behind his back but was heard by the person... Cheng Xueyan suddenly wanted to see what kind of expression Du Yingzi would look like if she saw her coming out of the forest, but after thinking about it... Forget it, but...
"I'd better look over there..."
You Cui didn't have time to talk to them, so she raised her feet and walked this way.
Du Yingzi was stunned and hurriedly pulled You Cui.
"Why are you looking for her in such a hurry?"
"Alas, Lieutenant Gu is here..."
