The full moon hangs high in the sky.
The garden is shaded by green trees and covered with verdant rockery.
Next to a pool of clear water, there is an elegant pavilion with flying eaves, red pillars and green tiles.
In the pavilion, Miss Qin, dressed in a white dress, with fair skin and ethereal face, looked like a fairy from the Moon Palace who had fallen into the mortal world. She was sitting there quietly, staring at the moon in a trance.
Outside the pavilion, under the plum tree.
A cold girl in a green dress is holding a sword, her long black hair is dancing, her clothes are fluttering, and she is dancing with the sword.
This time the sword seemed much softer than the last time.
Luo Qingzhou took a look.
Then, without looking away, he walked to the pavilion and bowed to the dazed girl inside: "Miss."
The girl came back to her senses and looked at him with eyes as cold as the moon.
After looking for a long time, Fang nodded slightly.
Luo Qingzhou got a response and prepared to leave.
Just as he turned around and took a few steps, "Swish, swish, swish", the sword under the plum tree suddenly became sharp again.
Flower petals fall like rain and the garden is filled with sword lights.
A slight chill came with the night wind and the subtle fragrance.
"Uncle, is Chanchan's dancing ugly? That's why you're in such a hurry to leave?"
The voice of Bai Ling stirring up trouble was heard.
Luo Qingzhou ignored her, stopped and looked at the sword-dancing girl under the plum tree.
The girl under the tree has stars in her pupils and a sword in her hand that reflects the moon. She has a graceful figure and a beautiful face, but the sword's light is cold and her face is like ice.
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
Luo Qingzhou felt that the sword turned into a garden of swords, and a sharp edge turned into thousands of cold rays, dotted like stars, flying all over the body, extremely beautiful.
Of course, it is also extremely scary.
If you were hit by such a sword, your entire body would be riddled with holes in an instant, with no part intact.
"Uncle, Chanchan seems angry."
When Luo Qingzhou was watching in fascination, Bailing teased him again in his ear, and the fragrance of her words fell into his ears.
Itchy and numb.
Luo Qingzhou stood a few steps away without looking at her.
Bailing moved closer to him again, and said aggrievedly, "Son-in-law, you were not like this just now outside. You pushed me against the door frame and almost kissed me."
The sword light faded and petals flew everywhere.
The girl stopped under the tree, sheathed her sword, and looked over with cold eyes.
Bai Ling immediately said in a tender voice: "Son-in-law, just now outside, you sniffed me and said I smelled so good, so sweet, is that true?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, did not answer, and walked towards the round door.
Bai Ling hurriedly shouted: "Son-in-law, have you forgotten something?"
Luo Qingzhou said without even turning his head: "No."
Bailing reminded: "Didn't the son-in-law just tell me outside that you have something to say to the young lady?"
Luo Qingzhou stopped at the round door and turned to look at her.
He remembered what Xiaodie reminded him when they came.
"Sir, since Sister Bailing said that, it means...it means that Miss wants to sleep with you. You must take the initiative to say it."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the snow-white figure in the pavilion, then retracted his gaze and looked at the pretty girl in front of him who was blinking and secretly winking at him.
He remembered the familiar fragrance of the girl at the door just now, and the girl's charming shyness in the moonlight.
The garden was silent for a moment.
He said, "Nothing much to say, just greetings to the young lady."
After saying that, he bowed, walked out the door, and soon disappeared around the corner in the darkness.
Bai Ling was stunned for a while, then turned around and looked at the figure in the pavilion, then looked at the figure standing under the plum tree holding a sword, as cold as frost. He shrugged and murmured, "Someone would actually refuse..."
No one responded.
Silence returned to the garden again.
When Luo Qingzhou returned to the courtyard, Xiaodie was sitting in the yard with a wooden basin in front of her.
The fish is in the basin.
The little girl was holding a kitchen knife in her hand, her pretty and tender face full of confusion.
Seeing him coming back, she quickly stood up and said with a bitter face: "Sir, I still dare not kill..."
Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but laugh, and took the kitchen knife from her hand, saying, "Go and light the stove."
"oh."
Xiaodie quickly ran into the kitchen.
Luo Qingzhou sat down, and with his knife he skillfully scraped off the fish scales, removed the gills and fins, cut open the belly, removed the internal organs and the black membrane.
Cleaned up quickly.
After washing it several times with clean water, I went into the kitchen, put it in a clean basin, added some ingredients, and started marinating it.
Then help the little girl to make a fire.
Soon, the aroma of grilled fish wafted through the courtyard.
Xiaodie wasn't hungry.
Just now I was saying, "Sir, the fish is so pitiful, I won't eat it."
But when the fish was roasted on the fire and the aroma wafted out, she stood by and drooled, touching her belly and said, "Sir, the fish is so big, you will get a stomachache if you eat it alone, I will help you eat it later."
Luo Qingzhou deliberately said: "I can finish it by myself, you can go back to your room and embroider."
The little girl pouted her lips, pretending not to hear, and continued to swallow her saliva, looking very greedy.
The fish cooked quickly.
Luo Qingzhou took it off the fire and let it cool down for a while before washing his hands. He tore off the tender meat from the belly of the fish on both sides and put it into the bowl that the little girl had already brought. He said, "Let's eat."
After saying that, he held the fish with an empty belly in his hands and began to eat it with relish.
Xiaodie held the bowl and said with red eyes: "Master..."
Luo Qingzhou looked up at her and asked, "What?"
Xiaodie raised her hand to wipe away the tears that were about to overflow, and shook her head and said, "No, it's okay, I just feel so happy, so blessed."
Luo Qingzhou smiled and lowered his head to continue eating fish: "Just be happy, just be happy. Isn't the purpose of life to be happy and happy?"
"Um."
Xiaodie held back her tears and lowered her head to eat.
After taking a bite and looking at him, I decided secretly in my heart: For the sake of the young master, I must grow up and learn from Sister Xiaotao... learn some skills.
Under the moonlight, the young man has a face as beautiful as jade, handsome and gentle.
She thought foolishly again: "Tonight... I will serve the young master tonight... The young master is so good to me, I have no way to repay him, I can only use what Sister Xiaotao taught me... to make the young master happy... Xiaodie, come on!"
The evening breeze blows gently and the leaves rustle.
The Nine-Curve Corridor in the backyard of Chengguo Mansion.
Madam Wang came out of Luo Yannian's study, holding a lantern. She stopped at the vermilion railing in the middle of the corridor and looked ahead.
The bushes nearby moved slightly.
The second housekeeper Wang Cheng appeared and whispered, "He has been guarding there the whole time. He has never come out except for the last time he went to the bookstore. The one-month deadline is up, probably in the next two days."
Wang looked away, her face gloomy: "How many people?"
Wang Cheng said respectfully: "Five of them, all desperate criminals, one of them is a warrior. They are more than enough to deal with that kid."
"Where's Wang Pu?"
"He will follow from a distance and will personally verify the body afterwards. He has seen the boy in the mansion and knows him."
Wang lowered her head, looking at the flickering flame in the lantern in her hand, and whispered, "You know, Yu'er is preparing for the exam, and Longhu Academy attaches great importance to everyone's quality..."
Wang Cheng bowed his head and said, "Madam, rest assured. If there is any mistake in this matter, Wang Pu will bear the responsibility alone. I guarantee it with my life."
Wang said nothing more and left with the lantern.
After walking a few steps, he looked ahead and said, "I heard that he has a sister? Let's let his sister come into the mansion. Then she can accompany Yu'er to Kyoto."
When Wang Cheng heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly thanked her: "Thank you, ma'am."
Wang had a calm expression and walked away slowly.
