After the Lantern Festival, the Su family finally returned to Yuhang. Going down the canal all the way from Kyoto by boat is much faster than going overland.
After hearing that the Su family had returned, Duan Feiqing came to visit with a letter of invitation a few days later.
The one who received him was not the head of the Su family, but his wife Lin. Lin is from the Lin family in Kyoto, and she is also a heroine who does not allow men. When she was young, she was quite famous on the rivers and lakes. Even if she mentions a flower knife now, no one knows it.
Mrs. Lin called someone to pour some tea for Duan Feiqing and Lu Heng, and after a brief introduction, they started talking about business. The matter of the catalogue of mountains and rivers is of great importance. Duan Feiqing bluntly stated that this trip was related to the Duan family tragedy.
Hearing this, Lin's delicate brows lightly frowned: "Nephew Duan, after the incident with the Duan family, the old man and his husband went to Anyang County together. Later, he found that the Duan family had been torched. They have been trying their best to track down the whereabouts of the murderer, and it seems that there are some clues. But the details, only the old man and the son know."
"The next time I came here, I also found some clues, and I want to discuss the matter with Su Zhuangzhu." Duan Feiqing said.
Lin Shi said apologetically, "The old man and my husband are still staying in Kyoto to deal with matters. I'm afraid it will take some time to return."
After that, Lin shi turned his head and confessed something to the maid behind him, and the maid nodded and hurriedly left.
"Nephew, you and Yixiu haven't seen each other for many years. Not long ago, I heard him talk about wanting to discuss something with you." Lin pursed his lips and smiled, "You bastard, I heard that you broke out in the southwest. It's a bit unconvincing when it comes to the world."
"That's too disturbing to the mansion, so I rented a small yard in Wusu Lane next to Ah Heng, and it's okay to wait there for the return of the owner of the villa." Duan Feiqing said, "As for Brother Su, I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to catch up with him now."
"I just asked my maid to call Yixiu over, wait a moment."
After a while, the maid who had just left walked in, and there was no one behind her.
"Where's the young master?" Lin asked.
"Madam, I heard Xiao Lian say that the young master went to the Tibetan Fragrance Pavilion to drink flower wine with some friends." The maid walked to Lin's side and said in a low voice.
It's just that the people present were all martial arts practitioners, and the contents of the maid's words were clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
Duan Feiqing's expression was relatively calm, but Lu Heng distorted his expression almost invisible. In the teahouse, I heard those people talking about the affair between the young master of the Su family and Gu Qiqi, the top brand of Cangxiang Pavilion, but Lu Heng didn't take it seriously. Because Su Yixiu also had a cousin, Lu Heng thought that the young master of the Su family was this cousin.
Unexpectedly, it was Su Yixiu who had frequent contacts with this Gu Qiqi. Isn't this Su Yixiu a woman, what is going on in the brothel to drink flower wine? Lu Heng felt that he couldn't keep up with this change at all.
Lin shi was so angry that his face was blue, and he whispered: "Go and find that renegade son for me."
Since Villa Master Su and Su Yixiu were not in the mansion, Duan Feiqing and Lu Heng were inconvenient to stay. After Duan Feiqing got up to leave, Lin sent them to the door.
A few people walked to the gate when they heard a sound from outside the door. Then, the door was opened.
"Listen to the report, there is a distinguished person visiting. It turned out to be Brother Duan, I haven't seen him for many years, but are you all right?" A voice that was slightly clearer than an ordinary man's voice sounded.
That Su Yixiu, dressed in a delicate purple brocade robe, stood in front of the door with a long body. With a pair of Danfeng eyes, the ends of the eyes are raised, and there is an endless passionate look between Gu Pan.
She held a peach blossom fan with a cynical smile on the corner of her mouth. In the entire Yuhang City, no one knows the name of Yixiu's romantic and affectionate son.
Lu Heng saw that Su Yixiu's eyes swept lazily at the people in the door, and when she landed on him, her whole body froze in place, with a dazed look on her face.
"This sister, you are the fairy who met me every night in my dreams. It must be a gift from God that we met." Su Yixiu hurried to Lu Heng, raised his hand and wanted to hold Lu Heng's hand, but He was pushed open by Duan Feiqing with the hilt of his sword.
Su Yixiu didn't care, and continued to say with admiration: "Sister immortal, my surname is Su and my name is Yixiu. She is from Yuhang, and she has no wife at home. Can you tell me your name?"
Lu Heng, who knew Su Yixiu's real gender, was stunned by her actions. He was molested by a woman
"Brother Su, please be careful." Duan Feiqing's voice was extremely low. Lu Heng thought badly, and when he looked sideways, he saw Duan Feiqing's face was frosty.
"Nizi, what are you doing nonsense!" Lin shi shouted from the side.
"Mother, this time I'm sincere, this sister is the person I've been looking for for many years!" Su Yixiu explained sideways, then immediately turned his eyes back and looked at Lu Heng intently.
Lin Shi was so angry that he fell to his back, and Duan Feiqing's face here was too dark to look at.
Only then did Su Yixiu feel something was wrong. As far as she knows Duan Feiqing, this person has always been a gentle and gentle gentleman. No matter what happens, he will not show half of it on his face. Now his anger is about to become real.
Could it be that this Miao sister is Duan Feiqing's wife? That would be bad. I have never attacked married women. Su Yixiu, who is very disciplined, decided it would be better to confirm it: "Brother Duan, isn't this sister-in-law? If that's the case, you can be me. I was just drunk and talking nonsense, please bear with me."
Duan Feiqing opened his mouth, but fell silent again. After all, he didn't say anything.
Su Yixiu looked over with a puzzled face, and wondered how this brother had become so weird after not seeing him for so many years.
"We are not husband and wife, he is my sworn brother." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lu Heng explained.
Hearing the fairy in his heart talking to him, Su Yixiu was so beautiful that he couldn't find the North, and he said without restraint, "Brother Duan, if you don't mind me, how about letting me be your brother-in-law?"
Lu Heng saw Duan Feiqing's fingertips trembling slightly, and his forehead twitched. He took a quick step forward. Lu Heng stood very close to Duan Feiqing. When he took a step, his wide sleeves happened to cover the back of Duan Feiqing's hand. In a place where no one could see, Lu Heng's hand gently pinched Duan Feiqing's fingertips.
"We Miao people do not intermarry with Han people." Afterwards, Lu Heng raised his eyebrows and threw out a sentence at Su Yixiu.
But Su Yixiu was also a wonderful person, and he was not discouraged when he was rejected: "Sister Miao, if I hadn't joined the family, I would be considered a Miao person."
Lu Heng felt that the fingertips of his palm moved again, and he thought to himself, this heroine of women, don't you want to kill yourself, okay
Fortunately, Lin Shi has recovered: "Nizi, shut up!"
Seeing that his mother was really angry, Su Yixiu closed his mouth sadly.
Now that Su Yixiu had returned to the mansion, the Lin family kept Duan Feiqing and the two for dinner. The dining table was just that, Su Yixiu seemed to really treat Duan Feiqing as his brother-in-law, and he was trying to please him. Fortunately, she didn't mention anything about being Duan Feiqing's brother-in-law, otherwise it would be impossible for this meal to end safely.
After dinner, it was already dark. Su Yixiu also said that he would have a drink with Duan Feiqing, and left the two to rest at Sujiazhuang tonight. Duan Feiqing thought about whether she could learn some news related to the catalogue of mountains and rivers from Su Yixiu's mouth, so she agreed.
In this winter in the south of the Yangtze River, after nightfall, it is even more bitterly cold. Lu Heng, who had poor internal strength, couldn't stand the cold, so he fled into the warm house early, leaving Duan Feiqing and Su Yixiu to enjoy plum blossoms and drink together in the courtyard.
"Brother Duan, I heard that you are already the eldest disciple of the Taichu faction. You are famous in the southwest region, and you have always been fascinated by you. I want to go to the southwest to discuss something with you, but unfortunately my family does not allow me to travel without permission. "Su Yixiu said.
"That's all my colleagues in the rivers and lakes. Brother Su, I heard that you have an understanding of swordsmanship. Lin Huaian in Kyoto has been defeated by your sword several times."
"What does Lin Huai'an mean if you win? The people in the southwest are sturdy and bandits are rampant. That's where the heroes like me should go to show their skills." Su Yixiu lay facelessly on the table, his tone dejected. Both she and Duan Feiqing became famous as teenagers. Now Duan Feiqing is able to stand on his own, but she is still under the protection of her family, which makes her a little nervous.
"Brother Duan's experience over the years must be very exciting. He actually went to the land of Miaojiang and met such a beautiful Miao sister." Su Yixiu was depressed for a while, and his eyes rolled again, bringing up the topic. On the beauty she longed for.
"..." Duan Feiqing didn't want to take her words, but he didn't want Su Yixiu to keep circling around Ah Heng, "A few days ago, Ah Heng and I went to see the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, and the leader this time was the Cangxiang Pavilion. "
"Ah, Tibetan Fragrance Pavilion." Su Yixiu showed a guilty conscience.
"I heard other people's comments, that Tibetan Xiangge Gu Qiqi seems to have a lot of contacts with Brother Su." Duan Feiqing raised his hand to fill the glass of wine, "I don't know if you have heard of Brother Su, Miao Nv is the most dedicated, if your lover and When others have an affair, it must be for those who betrayed to experience the pain that pierces their hearts and bones."
Duan Feiqing's tone was too gloomy, which made Su Yixiu couldn't help but fight a cold war: "This Miao elder sister can be tricked?"
Duan Feiqing raised his head, took a sip of the wine in his glass, and then smiled slightly: "Didn't I tell you, Ah Heng is the Gu King of Miao Border."
Gu, Gu king? Thinking of the unpredictable Gu technique of the Miao people that he had heard in various legends, Su Yixiu felt that for the sake of his own life, the gentle and watery Gu Qiqi was more suitable for him.
