The cold wind blew a plum blossom in the silvery white snow, and when it was covered with a layer of snow particles, it became a notice of crystal carving and dyeing. Xiangmei's shoulders were covered with snowflakes, her nose was red with cold, and her eyes were red and shiny, which was quite pitiful and lovely.
Mammy White, the housekeeper, stood on the bridge in front of the goddess the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon. Seeing that the little niece's eyes were red, she knew that she had been cornered by the moon, so she hurried to catch up, took the box in Xiangmei's hand, put a clay hand stove in Xiangmei's hand, and rubbed her already stiff and purple fingers. I dare not say that living on the moon is wrong, so I have to sob and comfort myself softly: "Today, my wife asked me to transfer you to Cang Yue Mountain to serve. This is the cleanest place, and it is also the place that ladies and gentlemen value most. When she gets there, even if she has any skills, she can only stare. "
I nodded gratefully to Mei, wiped away the tears in my eyes, and said hoarsely, "Thank you for your careful planning for me. In the future, Xiang Mei will be regarded as a cow and a horse, and she will repay her kindness in rebuilding her life. " Thinking that she is about to get rid of suffering, Xiang Mei feels that the suffering in recent years is nothing, and the scars on her body are not as burning as before.
Looking around, she dared to ask Mammy Bai in a low voice, "Sister, this Cangyue Mountain is a treasure in my wife's heart. I don't know how many people are jealous, but my sister took this good job. I am afraid that Sister Wang will give you a hard time. " Sister, I'd better wait for this matter. It is also impossible to go to Mount Cang Yue, a nice place, and other young ladies' yards. "
White mammy lovingly patted Mei on the shoulder, knowing that this was her niece's love, fearing that she would be stuck in the house, but it was really not her own idea.
"I know you are filial, but it's really not my sister who left, so that I can get the money. It was the message from the lady herself that asked you to serve. " White mammy's face was beaming. God knows she was so happy when she heard the news that she didn't know what to do. I can't wait to run out of the house right now, set up a fairy lamp for my wife and pray day and night, just to wish her a happy life. After some courtesy, I quickly came to find someone.
Xiang Mei stared in surprise, not knowing what to look at, and finally stammered incredibly, "What's going on? I don't always walk in front of my wife, and I'm not as smart as a bell. Why does my wife want me to wait on her? "
Cang Yue is the residence of Chen Ling, the eldest son of the first lady of the Chen family. Extremely elegant and exquisite, with flowers and trees, one step at a time. Among them, the growth of phoenix flowers and trees is a landscape admired by countless people throughout Yuzhou. Since Chen Lin left, this place has been sealed off, and even the son of the beloved old lady is not allowed to go in.
I wrote a letter from my eldest son the day before yesterday, saying that I would go home in a few days. The first wife is busy packing and carefully arranging the whole Cangyue Mountain. Even Qiu Ping, who has always had a face around the old lady, has been dialed to serve. Everyone knows that the future of entering Cangyue Mountain can be expected. I don't know how many people will go in. Xiang Mei can't believe that such a good thing will fall on her.
See white mammy nodded hard, eyes full of joy. Smile at Mei and the heaven. "Now I want to thank my wife. If menstruation doesn't come with me, it's better to receive the reward together. " Then she went to Xiaoxiangzhou, where the first lady lived, with the white mammy who refused Youzi.
Xiaoxiangzhou is in Xiyuan, facing a half-moon lake. The lake is now frozen by Bai Bing. A few red berries on the river bank were covered with fluffy snow foam, and several little girls chattered with silver scissors to cut some particularly good ones and put them in the basket. Seeing Xiang Mei and Bai Mammy together, the faces of several little maids were very wonderful, and the complex mood of jealousy and pleasing flashed across their faces. Finally, they just knelt down respectfully to Xiang Mei and took the initiative to say hello. No longer when I was at work a few days ago, my words were soft and my expression was high.
Xiang Mei has no proud black color. She holds her head high and her mouth is bent, so she is very humble. "This red plum is excellent, but this red plum is a lady's favorite thing in the world, and no one is allowed to pick it. Today, why ... "
A little maid with a beaming face and pleasing appearance said first, "Isn't this because the eldest son is coming back? The lady said that the eldest son likes the elegant fragrance of flowers in the house, so let's cut some vases here. "
The answer of an epiphany, bid farewell to a few little maids, turned a zigzag bridge and entered Xiaoxiangzhou. At first glance, I saw a beautiful maid standing in the yard next to the first lady, picking things, and occasionally I heard a few immature cries of cats and dogs.
"Big childe like these little things, don't use flawed things to fool people. If you let me know, you will feel better. " Cuiwei picked up a snow-white dog with a plum blossom on its ear and looked at it carefully with her fingers. Looking at the maid who entered the palace with the big lady, I still pay attention. After checking dozens of pets one by one, Cuiwei selected two of them satisfactorily. A snow-white four-month-old cat with long-haired mandarin duck eyes, a dog with wet eyes.
Seeing that Cuiwei finally made up her mind, Mammy, the stewards of pets, was relieved. He smiled and complimented, "The girl works hard, but what is there to like?" It is that there is no ready-made one here for the time being. Even if the old people have worked hard for half their lives, they will definitely find it for your wife. " Even if this job is a little tired, the pay is first-class and generous. If you die in front of your wife or even your eldest son, there will be another chance in the future.
Cuiwei gave the lovely mammy a gherardini look, and said nothing but, "I can't decide this matter. If you ask, you should call your wife. If your wife really likes it, that's your advantage. I just pick what I like. I wonder if you can satisfy your wife. "
After that, I asked two little maids with low eyebrows behind me to carry those two little things in. Only then did I see a silent Xiang Mei waiting there. She quickly changed her smooth face, grabbed Xiangmei's arm, kissed her warmly and said, "Why didn't you speak when my sister came?" You see, I was so busy that I forgot everything around me and ignored my sister. I hope this is not surprising to my sister. " Say eyes LengLi up a trace of frost, to the side of a few servant girls Chen Jiao complained, "to mei's sister, how come no one let me know, just watching one by one, don't know how to greet people. I said that what I don't know is that we in Xiaoxiangzhou don't know how to entertain guests. "
Xiang Mei is now a native of Cangyueshan, and the first lady personally pointed out the past, which is unique in Xiaoxiang State. In the past, Xiang Mei relied on Cui Wei and others' faces, but now the tables have turned and everything depends on Xiang Mei's glances.
Xiang Mei knows Cuiwei's ability. She has always been a powerful player. Except for a few immediate masters at home, Cuiwei has never been afraid of others. Now, seeing Xiang Mei's chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, how can there be no resentment in my heart? This sentence is not so much blaming the maid in the yard as alluding to Mei.
"Elder sister, what did you say? I didn't come for a while, and I didn't bother to see my sister busy doing things. " Xiang Mei's eyes are slightly bent and her eyes are slightly upturned. The appearance of smiling Yan Yan is particularly gratifying. "In addition, I also like to see these cats and dogs, and I don't think it's anything. Besides, I went out from my in-laws' house, and it is simply heresy for my sister to say so. "
"That's right. My sister used to come in with me to serve, but later she was assigned to Yueyue. After so many years, we gradually alienated each other. This time, it happens that the two of us will get together and call Ling Xue and them to have fun together. " Cuiwei's eyes lit up and she soon woke up. She kissed Xiang Mei's hand and walked into the house together.
The Chen family's eldest wife, Liu, is the daughter of Jiangyang County Magistrate. She grew up in a land of plenty and was born with a gentle look. Elegant and quiet, now the big lady is angry with her. Looking at Cuiwei's little darling, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yuheng liked these things since he was a child. When she was a few years old, she brought back a ferret from nowhere and held it in her arms. When I finally go to Tianmu Mountain, I don't need to bring anything except this. " Speaking of his favorite son, Liu's eyes are full of soft water waves, rippling slightly and full of infinite joy.
Mammy Liu grew up with Liu, watching Chen Ling change from a naughty and naive rich young master to this world-famous favored son. Hearing this is also quite emotional. "The old slave looked at childe grew up as a unique group. A small person was taken to such a distant border. This is the first time to come back after so many years. I feel sad when I think about it. "
At the age of seven, Chen Ling was taken away by Miao Yinxian who came here. Once she went to Tianmu Mountain and never lived at home for more than ten years. It is said that practitioners should not be too stained with the world of mortals and tacky, and they need to do their best to cultivate the essence of the sun and the moon. This year, because they are 20 years old, they need a coronation ceremony to be released.
Liu's heart is not missing, but he knows that it is a once-in-a-lifetime good thing to cultivate immortality at the gate now. What's more, it is the ancestral gate with a long history like Tianmu Mountain. Chen Ling is her first child. The little group of jade snow is lovely, and everyone laughs. It danced around her until she was seven or eight years old. She was taken away overnight, and the pain was no less than the pain of gouging out her bones. So many days and nights, every midnight, I miss my eldest son who is far away from home. Now when I hear Mammy Liu read, my eyes are red, tears are in my eyes, and I let out a sad cry.
Sister Liu regretted that she had brought up sad things for no reason. Seeing that Liu was depressed, she slapped herself. She quickly comforted herself with a regretful voice: "Look at my mouth, it's all the fault of the old slave. It's all about ease and leisure. Madam, I want to punish the handmaiden for sweeping Cang Yue Mountain. I won't let the handmaiden go out if I can't wash it clean. " Mammy Liu told Liu with a flattering smile that her unsmiling face turned out to be an intimate chrysanthemum, which opened the eyes of the people behind.
Mammy Liu is an extremely embarrassed mammy of the Chen family. She has always been unsmiling and serious in front of my little daughter. Now she has never seen such a pleasing appearance.
I was born Liu, and when I saw Mammy Liu at work, a trace of gloom in my heart was always temporarily suppressed. Cuiwei looked at the gap and came forward with a sweet smile. "Madam, look who's here?" Say, let Xiang Mei go forward.
I respectfully kowtowed to Liu and said, "Thank you, Madam. I have nothing to repay you. I will definitely tie a wreath in the future to repay your kindness. " It's clear why Liu let her go to such a good place as Cangyueshan, because of the loyal service of White Mammy over the years, and because Lanyueju is the place where Aunt Miao, the great lady, doesn't like to live the most, even for Aunt Miao, she is willing to take it off.
When the first lady saw Xiang Mei coming to thank her at three o'clock, she knew that the girl was reasonable and didn't waste time choosing her. At present, he said kindly, "You are an understanding child. I know you've always been honest and steady. This time, I arranged for you to fly to escape. You deserve dignified care. In the future, you should take good care of Yuya. If you need anything, just ask Mammy Liu. " I'm too lazy to talk to Xiang Mei again and ask Cuiwei to send someone out.
Chen Fu was busy waiting for Chen Lin to come back here, but Chen Lin tripped over his brother there.
Chapter II: Tent Sword School.
Chen Ling stood on Longjian Mountain Road with Yu Di in his hand, looking helplessly at the waterinfo kneeling in front of him. "I'm going home for the coronation this time, and now I'm out of the mountain gate. How can I get back?"
Luoshui bowed to Chen Lin ingratiatingly. A pair of delicate faces were supposed to have fine eyes, and he huddled together and looked at Chen Lin with bitterness. "You know my master's temper, how can I persuade him to live? Yesterday, I tried my best to hide it. I heard the news that you were leaving when I was doing my morning class on Feixian Stage. At that time, I made a scene, threw my sword and came to you. At least it was stopped by the elders of the North Wind, so they were all black-faced and unwilling to face the elders of the North Wind. " Think of the angry God of the North Wind grabbing Wang Qi by the collar. He seems to see an ominous black gas hanging over his body. His eyes like a scraper cold and dense sweep, slightly touched his line of sight, like a layer of skin will fall off.
Luoshui admires his master for having the courage to go crazy in the morning class presided over by Elder Beifeng, who is the most heartless person and whose fame has never been heard. It's just that this fame is different from that of Qi Tangmeng, the founder of Jianzong, who moved the world in the name of kendo. Elder Beifeng's reputation for being cruel and bloodthirsty is frightening. The fine products found in Tianmu Mountain in those years were all written by Elder Shuofeng, who vomited everything in his stomach. Over time, even the disciples of this sect will cringe when they see Elder Shuofeng.
Ying chen naturally knows what kind of temper the North Wind Elder is. This man was the same in his last life, but now his fame has not spread to Zhongzhou and Northland, only in the Tian Ming Mountains and several major sects. It was not until later that disciples changed and many people defected from the mountain gate. I don't know how many disciples were killed by the people who led Qiumingjiao to attack all the way. Blood flowed down Jinshan Road like a waterfall, and Tan Yuling at the foot of the mountain accumulated a pool of blood.
At that time, it was the elders of the North Wind who slaughtered the rebels with their own hands, regardless of the orders of the master to temper justice with mercy, and their blood was foaming at the mouth. Even if you wash more Song Mingye, you can't stop the evil spirits. Since then, the fierce name of the elders of the North Wind has spread throughout the South China. Although there are still troubles, as long as he is in one day, no one dares to attack this Tianmu Mountain again.
Chen Ling sighed, and the gloomy color of her brow was dispelled by Wang Qi's boldness. She waved waterinfo up. "Where is your master now? If he can come out, let him come home with me, let him take shelter for the first few days, then come back with me and apologize to Elder Shuofeng. " Then take out an ice clearing token in the sleeve and pass it to waterinfo. "Take this token and tell Yin Suxian that I took her disciple. If there is anything wrong, please forgive her. "
Waterinfo nervously held the token in his hand. A palm-sized token has cold tentacles, and the dropped white ears are cool, slippery and flexible. Holding them in your hand is like holding the purest snow stone on the top of the mountain. This token was carved by Chen Ling's master ... Qi, the founder of Jianzong, is also unique in Tianmu Mountain.
This token is like Qi's personal visit. People who meet you can only accept life respectfully, except that it is not conducive to the entrance, and there can be no dissatisfaction. This token is so expensive that Chen Ling seldom takes it out. Now, in order for Wang Qi to escape from the gate smoothly and reduce his guilt, he really took it out.
Bow to waterinfo, with Chen Lin and personal service Lin Si standing on the mountain road, facing the fierce breeze wordless.
"Childe, this token is something from the patriarch's adult. You've been accepting it and won't take it out easily. It is said that the fear of hiring people to be jealous leads to uneven strength of the gate valve. How can I take it out now because the prince has been punished? " Lin Si puzzled frowned, suppressed for a long time, could not help but ask softly.
This Wang Qi comes from a small family. Because Yin Suxian likes his wonderful bones, she raised people and wanted to teach them well. Who knows that Wang Qi is good at martial arts, but he has a long temper. I often look at people in a gloomy corner. My eyes are a little red and green, staring at people like a wolf, which makes people shudder.
Tian Ming has always had many children from rich families, and there are even more princes and princesses in the royal family. Wang Qi, a gloomy and unpleasant guy with no family background, is very sad in Tianming Mountain. Even if Yin Suxian likes his wonderful bones again, he can't bear to cherish a silent, gloomy and cold disciple over time. I just swear when I see someone bullying me, and leave the rest to fate.
At the time of Chen Lingchu, he didn't know Wang Qi at all. He is deeply loved by Qi. From small to large, Qi almost grew up holding his hand and loving him. I wonder how many people are waiting to curry favor with him. How can I know someone who will never appear in front of me?
Coincidentally, when I was fishing in our new lake, I saw Wang Qi, a man who greeted the dawn with the brightest and purest sword from the sky. For the first time, he took a sword and made Chen Ling sit up and fall in love with Wang Qi. So in the long run is to let Wang Qi stick to Chen Lin's side, and follow him taciturn, just like a loyal little tail.
Because he often follows Chen Ling's side, Qi will pay more attention to his eyes, and Chen Ling also looks for it from time to time, so the fairy dare not put it aside again, and the disciple who bullied him in the door also carefully bypassed him, with tail between his legs. Did not dare to say anything on the tooling, respectfully, privately, Wang Qi thought deeply, holding Chen Ling's thigh to climb all the way. What's more, it is said that Wang Qi will betray Chen Ling in the future and put on a live show of farmers and snakes. Lin Si followed Chen Lin since he was a child. Where did he hear such words? He often persuades Chen Lin to let him be careful of Wang Qi. If he can hide far away, he will. Who Cheng Xiang took out the chicken essence token that easily left his body today?
Chen Ling smiled and touched Lin Si, who was a head shorter than him. "The chicken essence token given by the master is for use, and I haven't encountered any major events before. This chicken essence token naturally does not need to be taken out. Since Wang Qi is in trouble, take out this Phoenix essence token and give him a helping hand to make the best use of it. Why care how expensive it is? Besides, if I keep what my master gave me, it is also a waste of my master's mind. "
Lin Si also want to say, just Chen Lin eyes light discoloration, obviously has made up his mind, even if Lin Si more waste your breath, also won't change his mind, Lin Si had to remain silent.
Lin Si is 23 years old now. In an ordinary family, he must have bent down. It's just that I'm still dressed as a servant, with a plain navy hair band tied in a neat bun, blown over my shoulder by the mountain wind, and I look at Bai Junxiu's face with special eyes. Previous lives have been loyal to him, until the last moment, there is no place for him to settle down, just follow him around, hungry and cold.
"You have taken care of me very hard these years." Chen Lin smiled sadly. Lin Si is the child of his wet nurse. He is two years old, and Chen Ling is older than him. But for so many years, it was Lin Si who took good care of him. Finally, he was blocked by a knife and beheaded. After all, it's his fault. If there is a chance to repay in the future, it will definitely produce compensation.
Lin Si strange looking at Chen Lin with your eyes open, "childe how can you say that, is it my bad hospitality? Or do you have a problem? If it is a big deal, it is better to go back to the patriarch now and ask for attention. " Lin Si always feels that something is wrong with Chen Lin these days. When she woke up in the morning, she was like a different person. The previous flying was slightly dull, adding a bit of sadness. I don't like playing and laughing as before. I often stay in one place, and I haven't moved for a long time, even my appetite is not good. Porridge dishes that used to be completely motionless can be eaten sweetly. Without his service, they have already put on their own clothes, not as casual as before, but a little more familiar and guilty.
This change, not to mention those who have been with him all the time, has long been noticed, and even Qi, who is closing the door, knows it.
Qi likes this apprentice very much, and he brought him up with his own hands, and his feelings are extraordinary. Even during the retreat, Lin Si was often called for questioning. Looking at Chen Ling unhappy these days, he never liked Qi Tangmeng who was involved in the world of mortals when Chen Ling went down the mountain. He also let go and let Lin Si wait on Chen Lin to go home for the coronation ceremony. Now see Chen Lin behave more unusual, Lin Si drums in the heart, without trace to persuade Chen Lin to go back, maybe meet with the old man, you can know the reason.
Chen Lin shook his head. "Nothing, just for an instant, I saw a lot of things. Besides, you grew up with me, no different from my own brother. I want to be nice to you, but am I wrong? "
Lin Si is young and experienced, and has always regarded Chen Ling as his younger brother, but his seniority is different, and he dare not interfere and care too much about Chen Ling. I'm not happy to hear Chen Ling say that now. As soon as my eyes lit up, my advice was swallowed. Looking at Chen Ling's handsome face under the foggy sky, I silently thought that maybe it would be better to go home and see his wife.
There was a cheerful jingle of bells behind him, and a golden figure jumped in front of Chen Ling.
The bearer was a little boy with a round face and a faint blush. He looked at Chen Lin with a pair of big round eyes, and his little green eyes were shining brightly. When he saw Chen Lin, a smile floated on his stiff mouth. It's just that this smile looks particularly grandiose and unnatural, which makes Lin Si standing beside him tremble with goose bumps.
Chen Lin didn't care. She took Wang Qi's arm and said, "I think you are boring in the gate. Why don't you come home with me and see the local customs of your hometown? I will apologize to Elder Shuofeng when I come back. I'll go with you. Presumably, the Presbyterian church in Shuofeng will be more fierce then. For my master's sake, he will be lenient. "
Wang Qi obediently nodded, he is not afraid of the punishment of the elders of the north wind. If he was afraid, he wouldn't contradict the elders of the North Wind and provoke his authority under the eyes of everyone. Only Chen Ling thought so, so he accepted it.
Sure enough, after a clever nod, I saw Chen Ling's bright smile. Even when she was quiet, her eyes were bright and black. Now she is full of smiles, as if she can see soft water waves inside, reflecting the golden sunshine that has just risen, which is particularly confusing.
When Wang Qi first saw these eyes, she was deeply fascinated, and then she tossed and turned, unable to sleep at night. I just want to be close to this person. I didn't expect good luck to come so quickly. Until today, when I saw this man, Wang Qi still couldn't help wondering, did this man really make friends with himself? But every time he smiles at himself, he can't help but throw away his dark doubts and can't remember what he wants to do, because he just wants to answer this person's words.
While Wang Qi was feeling a little self-loathing, he saw Chen Lin leading Lin Si down the mountain. Morning clouds were blooming all year round on both sides of the mountain road, only blooming in the morning and withering at night. When the sky just opens, it is the time when the clouds open. The big pink buds at the mouth of the bowl spread out slowly, holding a ray of golden skylight like satin petals and blooming like a pool of water in the middle of a lantern.
On the stone steps, there are petals withered last night. On one gray step after another, it seems that a colorful carpet has been laid on the long mountain road. Step on it, as soft as stepping on a cloud.
Every disciple who enters Tianmu Mountain will climb Jinshan Road, 9999 steps, and can only climb on foot to test a person's perseverance. I just climbed to the top of the mountain when I came at that time, and now I have seen such a beautiful scenery, which really makes Chen Ling feel a little sorry.
There is nothing wrong with the mountain gate to test a person's toughness. It is a pity to blindly pursue toughness and forget to pay attention to the scenery around you.
"Come on, the sedan chair is waiting for us at the foot of the mountain."
Lin Si gave a cry with great pleasure. This sedan chair is the privilege of disciples under the first peak of Tianmu Mountain. As the only disciple of the biggest frost blade in the mountain gate, Chen Ling has superior natural conditions. Think about the comfortable feeling that the hearse raised eyebrows in Yuzhou, let Lin Si can't wait to walk down the hill.
