The rebirth of the son-in-law

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the first year of Zhengping, there were lanterns and festoons outside, people in the street were carrying lanterns, and scholars were in groups, and there were lively scenes everywhere.

Song Min was also dressed as a scholar, and went out to play with Song Fang and Song Zhi.But Song Fang didn't like to be with him, so he pulled Song Zhi around three times, and soon separated from Song Min.

Song Min is used to it, and he doesn't care about it. He is happy and relaxed by himself.While looking at all kinds of colored lights, he walked from this street to that street.Suddenly someone stopped him, he looked up and saw a handsome man with a white face and beardless.The man was holding a low-quality piano and smiled at him, his clothes were crumpled due to the weight of the piano.

"Sir, do you want to listen to the piano?" The man's voice was deep and pleasant, light but not heavy.

Song Min didn't have much interest at first, seeing him dignified and self-respecting, his heart moved slightly, so he couldn't help nodding his head slightly.

"There are too many people here, why don't we go under the bridge."

He really went with the luthier under the bridge, the luthier sat cross-legged on Hengqin's lap, he hesitated for a moment, and sat beside the luthier.The qin master plucked the strings, and the sonorous sound poured out from his fingertips. Song Min heard the noble and elegant voice in the sound of the qin.

At the end of the song, the luthier's eyes were clear, and he asked, "What do you think, sir?"

"It sounds good." Song Min nodded and said sincerely, "Mr.'s piano sound is really beautiful. Ah, what is your name? Where do you live? Who did you learn from?"

The luthier burst into a smile, as if the ice and snow melted and the spring rain moistened things.He said, "Which one do you want me to answer first? They all call me Fifth Young Master."

"Fifth Young Master?" Song Min smiled cautiously, cupped his hands and said, "My name is Song Min, and my name is Meng Xue."

The fifth son called out: "Meng Xue." He got up and put away the qin, and said with a smile, "I'm going back. Today is a riddle guessing bet between me and my friends, and if I lose, I want to listen to the qin. I'll go first, and see you later." .”

He came in a hurry, left in a hurry, holding the bad piano, and played a bosom friend.Song Min saw him return to his companions, talked and laughed, and said goodbye to him.Song Min was absent-minded, suddenly ran all the way, stood at the bridge and asked him, "Fifth Young Master! Where do you live?"

"See you by fate!" The fifth young master smiled back, without answering, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

When we met again, ten days later, he was drinking with his classmates in a wine shop.The fifth son walked in, and the two looked at each other. Song Min stood up and said happily: "I said that the magpie is screaming, so I want to meet you. Come and sit down!"

The fifth young master sat down unceremoniously, poured a glass of wine, and clinked glasses with him.Song Min introduced the fifth son to his classmates, who praised him for his good temperament.

After drinking for a while, the fifth son asked him: "I heard that there are perch released in Mingyang Lake, let's go fishing."

"Okay!" Song Min said enthusiastically, "Then let's go now?"

He asked his classmate if he would go, but the classmate declined, so Song Min and the fifth son went to Mingyang Lake together.However, Mingyang Lake was snowing at the end of January, and there were no perch at all. The lake was frozen, so even if there were perch, it had to be iced.

Song Min did not expect that the Fifth Young Master's news was obviously wrong.The two looked at each other, and the fifth young master suddenly smiled and said: "It seems that we have to learn from the ancients, lying on the ice and begging for carp."

"Huh?" Song Min didn't quite understand.

The fifth young master took a sip of the wine gourd, spread a white fur coat on the ice, and lay on it, watching Song Min with a smile on his lips: "Meng Xue, come on, let's be arty, come on." Lying on ice and begging for perch'."

He was drunk to do such a stupid thing.Song Min bent down to pull him back to the city, but Fifth Young Master pulled him instead, and he threw himself into Fifth Young Master's arms, blushing.Fifth Young Master let go of his hand and let him lie beside him, then looked up at the sky.The clouds were thick and it looked like it was going to snow.

"Tell me, will it snow later?" Fifth Young Master asked in a low voice.

Song Min's face turned dark, but she didn't blame him, she hesitated for a while and lay down to chat with him.

"Will do."

The fifth son laughed and threw the wine gourd to him: "Drink more, it's the first time I've used the sky as my house, if you freeze, it won't be beautiful."

Song Min took a sip of wine and warmed up.After a while, it really started snowing.Snowflakes fell on Fifth Young Master's head, body, and Song Min's eyes.

The Fifth Young Master approached him, and when he turned his head, the Fifth Young Master seemed to be curled up in his arms.The snow is getting bigger and bigger, but Song Min doesn't feel cold.

He carefully looked at the man in his arms, he was free and easy, but it just made him feel unspeakably happy.

Snow quickly covered the two of them, and Song Min also stretched out his arms to hug the fifth young master, and the two leaned together.This cold weather was warmer than any day in Song Min's 20 years at Song's house.

Later, Song Min and the fifth son went out to play every day, roasting rabbits in barren villages and drinking fruit wine in the mountains and wild forests, and a month passed like this.

However, on the last day of February, the fifth son disappeared.Song Min searched many places, but failed to find Fifth Young Master.He already knew that the fifth son was from the Chunfeng Pavilion, so he went to the Chunfeng Pavilion to ask, and the pavilion owner said he didn't know.

On March [-]rd, the ice of Mingyang Lake melted, and Song Fang asked someone to get a boat and said he wanted to swim in the lake.Song Min didn't care, because Song Fang likes to play and doesn't like to study, and going to the lake is not doing his job properly, he doesn't care about these.

He was sitting at home reading, Zhang He came to visit, accidentally mentioned that Song Fang was not there, and went out to play.

"Song Gongkuan and the five sons of Chunfeng Pavilion are playing in Mingyang Lake." Zhang He laughed, "Why doesn't Meng Xue go together?"

"Which fifth son?" Song Min was taken aback.

"There is only one Fifth Young Master in Chunfeng Pavilion."

Song Min got up suddenly, threw the book away, and said to Zhang He angrily, "Go, go and have a look with me."

The two walked outside the door and met Song Xu.Song Xu Ning looked at them with eyebrows, and said in a deep voice, "Where are you going? Have you done all the homework I told you?"

Song Min's face froze, and he cupped his hands guiltily: "The baby is not ready yet."

"Hmph!" Song Xuwei said angrily, "I was not in the mansion last month, you went out to wander around and waste your studies, now that I am in the mansion, you dare to go out? Go back to study!"

Song Min's face darkened, and he turned around and walked in disappointed, but he reluctantly told Zhang He to go to Mingyang Lake to have a look, stare at Song Fang's movements, and then report to him.

Zhang He left in a hurry, but Song Min kept suffering in his heart.Where did the fifth son go these days, and why was he put together with Song?

After Zhang He left, he came to report the next day, saying that Song Fang sang "The Song of the Yue People" on the boat, and the five young masters used the piano to make peace with each other, envious of others.As he spoke, he looked at Song Min's face, which instantly turned livid.

"Song Gongkuan!" Song Min gritted his teeth, anger arose in his heart.

Zhang He persuaded: "Meng Xue, don't be angry, maybe it's not what you think. I don't think Gong Kuan may have any affair with the Fifth Young Master. If there is, I'm afraid that Mr. Situ will not be the first to spare him!"

After hearing this, Song Min restrained his anger.It's just that this incident made him unbearable. He thought that the fifth son was close to him, but now it seems that he doesn't think so.

Studying at home has always been busy, and finally waited until Song Fang came back.He went to see Song Fang, and Song Fang was wiping the "carmine" given to him by Song Qian, which was a valuable piano.

"Why are you here?" Song Fang frowned, not paying attention to this elder brother at all in his words.

"Gongkuan," Song Min said with a smile, "I heard that you got a good piano, so I came here to see it. Is this it?"

Song Fang responded indifferently.

"I heard that the Son of Heaven intends to marry Princess Xianning to the Song family." Song Min laughed, "I wonder if Gong Kuan knows about this?"

Song Fang's eyelids twitched, thought for a while, and pondered: "Did Father say who His Majesty prefers?"

"Of course it's you!" Song Min laughed loudly, "You are the son of the Patriarch of the Song family. If it wasn't you, could it be my turn for such a good thing?"

Song Fang's face changed, and he said angrily: "No! I can't marry Princess Xianning!"

Song Min saw his face, and the smile gradually disappeared.He pretended to be casual and said: "Why not? Could it be that you dare to resist the order?"

Song Fang's expression changed again and again.

"Hey, you are going to give this piano to the fifth son, right?" Song Min touched the rouge and said with a smile, "It's a pity, if the fifth son knows that the piano was given by you, I don't know if he will think you are Take the harp and seal his mouth."

Song Fang was in a panic. He looked at Qin, upset and didn't know what to do.

"How about this. You will definitely be watched and cannot go out recently. Why don't I buy this piano and give it to the fifth son. If Shifu asks me in the future, I will say that I gave it to you, and it has nothing to do with you. However, Do you really want to give the piano or do you want to be courteous? If you want to be courteous, you have to give it away, and let the fifth son accept your affection, but if Shifu knows, you may inevitably be beaten."

Song Fangsu looked down on Song Min. Song Min provoked him with words, saying that he was just spending a lot of money to win the five princes with a smile, and he was not sincere. How could Song Fang allow him to underestimate his feelings like this, so he immediately agreed and sold it to him for five hundred gold. Song Min.

Song Min spent many years of savings and embezzled the money Song Qian used for the riots, bought Yan Zhihong, and then went to Chunfeng Pavilion with the piano.Spring Breeze Pavilion was owned by the Song family, and the fifth son who was valued by the two sons of the Song family naturally couldn't easily accompany others, so when Song Min went, the fifth son was staring at the poems on the wall alone.

When Song Min came in, he wanted to give him a surprise, but when he found that the poem he was reading was actually "Song of the Yue People", his smile froze, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.As soon as he let go of his hand, Yan Zhihong almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he is a martial arts practitioner, so he reacted quickly, so he quickly picked it up.

Fifth Young Master looked back and saw him in a hurry, with a smile on his face, stepped forward to look him up, and sighed: "Meng Xue, you've lost weight."

"You too." Song Min looked at his thinning face, muttered for a long time, but still didn't mention Song Fang, he handed the piano to the fifth son, and said with a smile, "This is Carmine, and it's a good piano. I'll give this to you."

Fifth Young Master lowered his eyes and stared intently at Yan Zhihong, seemingly pleasantly surprised.He hugged Yan Zhihong, plucked the strings, and exclaimed: "Good qin!" He raised his head and said, "I heard that this qin is in the hands of Gong Kuan, why is it yours again?"

Song Min couldn't hold back his smile anymore.He looked deeply at the fifth young master, and pondered without knowing what to say: "Gongkuan? You call him so close?"

Fifth Young Master opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he just said lightly: "What does it have to do with you?"

Song Min stood where he was, expressionless.After a long time, he nodded and walked away.
