The person whom he had been looking for for more than ten days was right in front of him, so Luo Mingda couldn't care less to compete with Zhang Qingyang, so he pulled Zhang Qingyang away and ran over there.
Zhang Qingyang: …
At this moment, Fang Xin was admiring the scenery by the stream with his cousin and the servant basket.
"Hey, son, look, there are little fish in the water." Basket pointed to the water and asked his master to look in surprise.
"Eh? It's still so cold, so there are little fish? Let me see... Hey, there really are. Xin'er, come and see." Fang Xin's cousin Qi Ge'er heard the words and looked into the stream , If he saw a group of small fish swimming by, he called Fang Xin to come and see.
Fang Xin followed their line of sight and took a closer look, and found that there were about seven or eight little fish, swimming freely under the sparkling water, looking very content.
"Xin'er, you don't come out often on weekdays. These people are mostly children of famous families in the capital. I'll take you there to get to know them later. Take a look at it today. If you like any one, tell me, I know. Are you done?" Fang Qi whispered to Fang Xin after watching for a while.
His cousin is good-looking, smart, and knowledgeable, but he doesn't usually like to come out. He likes to read books, raise flowers, etc. at home. He has reached the age of marriage, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry. Uncle looked anxious. Knowing that he would come to the outing organized by the Prime Minister's son today, he asked him to bring Brother Xin to walk around as well.
Fang Xin looked at the little fish in the creek and was about to answer, but was interrupted by a voice next to her.
"This son, it's a coincidence that I didn't expect to meet you here."
The owner of the voice is naturally Lominda. Seeing the real person at the moment, he was excited and a little nervous, deliberately adjusted his clothes and trimmed his hair, and then folded his fists and gave a slight salute.
Fang Xin looked sideways and found that it was Luo Mingda. She turned around and said to Fang Qi, "Brother Qi, it's a little sunburned here. Let's go to the shade of the water pool over there?"
Fang Qi glanced at Luo Mingda, then at Fang Xin, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go."
With that said, the two walked to the pool under the waterfall in front, and the servant basket followed by the side.
Luo Mingda looked at the sun in the sky, the warm sun in the spring, the hairy sun, and the warmth of the human body, where would it be sunbathing
Apparently it was rejected again!
He didn't understand, he was so good-looking, why did the fairy always dislike him when he saw him
However, Luo Mingda has no other advantages, that is, the person he likes will never give up lightly!
He thought about it, pulled out a folding fan from behind, patted it twice in his hand, and then chased after it.
Didn't the friend who played with him before say that now the brothers like elegant people, so he also specially prepared one.
After a few steps to catch up with the three people in front, Luo Mingda took the fan and poked the servant boy, motioning him to give way, then he squeezed to Fang Xin's side, opened the folding fan with a snap, and blocked Fang Xin's head, saying: " Young Master, in Xia Luo Mingda, it is my destiny to see Young Master again today, dare I ask what Young Master is called?"
Fang Xin glanced at the folding fan above his head. The picture on the fan turned out to be a pine tree with a proud peak and ridge, with a tall and straight posture and awe-inspiring force. He was a little surprised and paused.
Seeing the fairy looking at his folding fan, Luo Mingda asked, "Young master likes this folding fan? How about giving it to you? I drew it myself."
Fang Qi glanced at her cousin strangely.
Fang Xin returned to her senses, waved her hand to lift the folding fan, gave Luo Mingda a slightly complicated look, and said, "No need."
Then, he pulled Fang Qi forward again.
Luo Mingda didn't give up, and stepped forward again and said: "Hey, son, I don't know your name yet, let me know next time, okay? If we meet in the future, it's better to have a name."
Fang Xin frowned.
Seeing this, Fang Qi smiled and said, "Young Master Luo, I'm really sorry. I still need to take my cousin to meet some friends over there. They are waiting for us. Let's talk later when we have time."
Speaking, without waiting for Luo Mingda to answer, Fang Qi took Fang Xin and pushed the person forward, where the barbecue was starting.
After walking out a distance, Fang Qi saw that Luo Mingda hadn't caught up, and she was still a little far away, so she told Fang Xin seriously: "Xin'er, let me tell you, this Luo Sanshao, you are a thousand Don't get close to him. Others spend every three days with Chu Rong and the others going to Hualou to drink flower wine. The whole capital knows. It's not good for them to mix. If he comes again, you can ignore him, it's not good. "
Fang Xin frowned, shook his head and sighed, "He wasn't like this before."
Fang Qi asked curiously, "You know him before?"
Fang Xin nodded and said softly, "Well, I saw him twice when I was a child. At that time, he wasn't so lighthearted."
Thinking of the handsome young man in her memory, and of the current Luo Mingda, Fang Xin sighed in her heart.
How did it become like this in just six short years
Not far from them, Luo Mingda was still staring at Fang Xin's back in a daze. He couldn't figure out where he had provoked him. His dislike was so obvious, and in addition to disgust from the fairy just now, he could see it from the inside. The infinite disappointment implied in it.
Disgusted and… disappointed
Luo Mingda was inexplicably guilty, and was puzzled.
"Hey, Luo Mingda, what are you doing here? What are you trying to make trouble for?" Zhang Qingyang came up from behind and asked.
Luo Mingda was still immersed in his own thoughts, and did not hear Zhang Qingyang's words at all.
Zhang Qingyang flicked his hand in front of Luo Mingda's eyes and said, "Hey, what are you looking at? Everyone has gone away!"
Luo Mingda was startled and recovered. Seeing that it was Zhang Qingyang, he immediately rolled his eyes at him and said impatiently, "What are you doing! Am I familiar with you? Stay away from me!"
Zhang Qingyang glanced over there and said, "Do you think I want to get to know you well? You careless young man, who do you like? I can tell you that Fang Qi has already got a marriage contract, so don't let me know. It's a good thing for a bad guy."
Hearing this, Luo Mingda immediately got closer and asked, "Fang Qi? Hey, Zhang Qingyang, do you know them?"
"Have you really seen Fang Qi?" Zhang Qingyang looked terrified.
Luo Mingda blinked and asked, "Which one is Fang Qi?"
Seeing that he didn't even know his name, Zhang Qingyang pouted and gave him a big white eye. Then, he pushed Luo Mingda and said, "Am I familiar with you? Stay away from me."
Luo Mingda covered his shoulders, glared at Zhang Qingyang, then raised his chin a little in the woods next to him, and then said angrily, "Hey! Zhang Qingyang, don't be ashamed! It's none of your business for me to come here, it's not your Zhang family's, so what happened to me?!"
Zhang Qingyang rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then said in a louder and more annoyed tone: "We came first. If you don't go to Hualou to be happy, what's wrong with running here? Followers!"
Luo Mingda's eyes were about to fall out of his eyes. He grabbed Zhang Qingyang by the collar and dragged him into the woods. Mingda's surname is yours!"
"Hey, Brother Mingda, it's all about roasting chicken legs, why are you going?" Chu Rong shouted over there.
Luo Mingda replied loudly: "You bake first! I will teach this fellow a lesson!"
On the other side, Zhang Qingyang's group watched them scrambling into the woods, and also shouted, "Qingyang, hey, what are you doing? Do you want to help?"
Zhang Qingyang said: "No, just his three-legged cat, I am enough!"
When the two met, they fought each other and fought several times. Everyone was accustomed to it and knew that nothing would happen to them. After all, they were both sons of high officials, so they knew the importance, so everyone shook their heads and went about their own business.
When Fang Xin saw it, she frowned and asked Fang Qi, "Don't they need to go and see?"
Fang Qi shook her head and said with a smile, "They fight a lot, don't worry, each of them will be punched and kicked a few times, and their flesh will be injured, so nothing serious will happen."
"Oh. I'll go over there and help them get shiitake mushrooms." Fang Xin went over to the grill and helped put on the barbecue stuff.
Usually, these young masters and brothers don't wait for others to serve at home. They can't think of it, and they all make up their own skewers.
Fang Xin doesn't usually come out to hang out with them, so it's a little strange to meet them.
A few steps away from him, several young masters were chatting while wearing meat skewers. The voice was neither loud nor low, and it entered Fang Xin's ears unconsciously.
"Hey, this group of Luo Mingda is here to find fault again. Every time they meet Qingyang, it's like they've met an enemy. Do you think they're making a fuss?" said one person.
"The Prime Minister and Lord Luo can't get along well, it's well known throughout the dynasty, it's no wonder they can get along well!" Another replied.
"Haha, don't worry, it's just like Luo Mingda, who looks like a brother, and goes to Hualou every day to be happy and happy, I'm afraid that all the spirits will be sucked up by the fairies in that Hualou, how can I have the strength to fight Ah?! Surely they can't beat Zhang Qingyang."
Fang Xin frowned.
Over there, the other shook his head and said, "Brother, you don't know this. You haven't come out for too long, and the news is old."
"What's the matter?"
"Hey, let me tell you," the man winked at everyone and said, "Luo Mingda, it's still a child!"
"No way?" The man before was shocked and said, "He will go to Hualou at least ten times this month, but he is still a child?! How is it possible, don't make fun of me."
"I lied to you as a puppy!"
Seeing what he said, everyone else believed it.
Their voices were a bit loud, and everyone around heard them, and they all looked over there immediately. Some of them understood, and they all smiled with understanding. Others who didn't understand began to inquire.
After a while, the story that Luo Mingda was still a child spread all over the place. Even some of the brothers and servants who came with them knew it, and they kept blushing and snickering.
Fang Xin paused, looking at the forest in the distance, thoughtfully.
In the woods, Luo Mingda put his arms on Zhang Qingyang's shoulders, rubbed the mud on the soles of his feet and stepped on Zhang Qingyang's boots, and asked, "Hey, hurry up, tell me, who are those two brothers just now? Who is it?"
Zhang Qingyang let him step on it, and when he finished stepping, he also rubbed a foot in the mud, then bent his legs and stepped on Luo Mingda's robe.
Stepping on a yellow mud footprint is particularly distinctive.
"Hey, don't bother stepping on it, just say it." Luo Mingda glared.
"That's Fang Qi and Fang Xin. Fang Qi's father is You Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, Fang Xin is his cousin. Fang Xin's father is the minister of punishment." Zhang Qingyang replied, then frowned again and said, "I But to remind you, Fang Qi already has a marriage contract, so don't hit him."
"Officer of the Department of Punishment?" Luo Mingda didn't listen to what Zhang Qingyang said at all, and when he heard the words of the minister of the Department of Punishment, he suddenly remembered the brother he told him, and he moved in his heart and asked, "Which is the Department of Punishment? The elder brother of the waiter's family? The shorter one or the taller one?"
Zhang Qingyang looked at Luo Mingda and asked suspiciously, "Tell me first, do you like the shorter one or the taller one?"
Luo Mingda smiled and said, "The taller one."
Hearing this, Zhang Qingyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately. The taller one is Fang Xin, the eldest brother of the Shi Lang's family."
"Fang Xin? Which Xin?" Luo Mingda's eyes lit up and asked.
Zhang Qingyang said, "Ri Jinxin."
"Rijinxin? Xinzhe, bright and bright." Luo Mingda muttered to himself, a dazzling smile jumped on his face, and said, "Fang Xin, what a good name, just like his people, bright and moving. Hey. , do you think he is as beautiful as a fairy in a painting?"
Saying that, Luo Mingda looked in the direction of the previous barbecue, but unfortunately they walked a little far in order to hide their eyes and ears. They could only see the trees, but not a single figure at all.
Zhang Qingyang looked at Luo Mingda strangely, looked at the smile on his face like a ghost, and got goosebumps, and said, "Hey, stop laughing, it's disgusting."
"No vision!" Luo Mingda rolled his eyes at him, turned his head, and then smiled again: "So he is the brother that Ah Me wanted to tell me. If I knew it was him, I wouldn't refuse Ah Me!"
Rejected twice! what a shame! Go back and find Ah Mo to say kiss!
"Do you really see Fang Xin?" Zhang Qingyang asked Luo Mingda's shoulder.
Luo Mingda nodded and said: "Yes, such a good-looking brother. You don't know, on the Lantern Festival, I went shopping for lanterns and met him. As soon as I saw him, I fell in love with him. Later, I found him ten For many days, I didn't know who he was, which made me find trouble."
"Tsk tsk tsk, then you probably have no hope. I advise you to give up as soon as possible." Zhang Qingyang shook his head.
"Why?" Luo Mingda hurriedly asked. Brother Xin had disliked him very much before, and he wanted to know why, so that he could go after others with the right medicine.
"Let me tell you, I heard that Brother Xin hates people who are frivolous and unbridled, you, alas, there is no hope." Zhang Qingyang said and shook his head.
"...I, I," Luo Mingda was at a loss for words, and anxiously choked out a sentence: "I didn't let go!"
Zhang Qingyang looked at him up and down while shaking his head, and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, you will go to Hualou more than a dozen times this month, who do you want to believe that you don't let loose?"
"..." Luo Mingda glared at him and said, "I haven't slept with those brothers! Just drink and listen to music! I haven't settled with you yet. Did you say that I'm still a child? That group of people are laughing at me!"
Zhang Qingyang paused and hurriedly denied: "This is not me, this must be spread by someone in your group who drank too much!"
"Hmph, I believe it is strange!" Luo Mingda stared at him in disbelief, rubbed a foot of mud with his right foot, and kicked Zhang Qingyang's abdomen, kicking him back two steps.
"Hey! You really kicked!" Zhang Qingyang clutched his stomach. Although it didn't hurt, he obviously exerted his strength. He also kicked with a kick, "Look at you kicking me, I kicked too!"
The two of them kicked and kicked, and it was almost like a real fight. Although they had all tried their best, their clothes were full of footprints.
After kicking for a while, Luo Mingda was tired, sat on the ground, pulled a handful of dry grass, tore it around, and said angrily: "Then what should I do? I don't like them and only hang out with them, you group. I can't enter, I don't play with them, no one will play!"
"Hey, who made your father and my father so 'incompatible'." Zhang Qingyang patted Luo Mingda's shoulder sympathetically, and then said, "You are nineteen, listen to what brother said, take it well. Take care, if you want to hold the beauty back, if you change now, maybe there is still a little chance. Moreover, this year is autumn, so prepare well and pass the exam, maybe you can make Brother Xin impress you? "
Hearing this, Luo Mingda's eyes lit up and said, "Really?"
Zhang Qingyang coughed lightly, nodded and said, "Really! Work hard and let Brother Xin change his opinion of you!"
"...But I don't like to study, so I'm not a student." Luo Mingda sighed.
Zhang Qingyang: …
After talking for a long time, the two did not come up with any good solution. Seeing that the time was about the same, the two created some more "evidence of fighting", and then they came out of the forest angrily.
When everyone saw them coming out, their faces were covered with mud, and their bodies were covered in mud. At first glance, they had a hard fight. However, seeing that there were no scars on the two sides, the people on both sides asked, and the two said that there was no big deal, so they cleaned it up and uncovered it.
Fang Xin glanced at the two of them, stood up and went to wash hands by the pool.
Luo Mingda had washed his hands in some places downstream. Seeing that Brother Xin was at the pool under the waterfall in front, he washed his face and leaned over again.
"Xin, Brother Xin, are you washing your hands?" Luo Mingda squatted down next to Fang Xin, and also reached out to wash her hands, "The water is quite cold, be careful you're freezing."
Hearing Luo Mingda calling his name, Fang Xin gave him a strange look, "How do you know my name?" She was still asking before.
Luo Mingda paused, then scratched his head and said, "Just now, when we were fighting, Zhang Qingyang said it."
I see. Fang Xin lowered her eyes and continued to wash her hands without answering.
When Luo Mingda saw Brother Xin, he turned his head and ignored him again. He remembered that Zhang Qingyang said before that Brother Xin didn't like frivolous men, and remembered the disgusting eyes of Brother Xin before, and he was a little discouraged, so he washed his hands too words again.
Right at this moment, two and a half-year-old teenagers cut firewood and passed by the water pool to rest and drink water, but one of the teenagers accidentally slipped his foot into the water pool. He couldn't swim, and fluttered in the water.
"Help! Help!" The boy on the shore couldn't swim either, so he could only be in a hurry. When he saw someone on the opposite side, he shouted loudly.
Both Luo Mingda and Xin Ge'er heard it, and they stood up immediately.
This pool is about three meters deep. At this time, the young man who fell into the water fluttered, but slowly sank.
"Someone fell into the water! Does anyone know how to swim? Come and save people!" Brother Xin turned around and called out to the crowd immediately.
As soon as he finished shouting, he heard a thudding sound of falling into the water. When he turned around, he was surprised to see that Luo Mingda had already entered the water and swam to the other side. On the shore, he had taken off his cotton-padded coat, coat and boots.
Brother Xin looked at the figure in the water, and opened his mouth to speak for a long time.
