[Comprehensive] leaning on flowers and bamboo

You made a mistake, but you should bear it if you do it. After thinking about it for a few days, the only one who feels sorry is you. Don’t blame me in the future. I will repay your kindness in the next life. "

Team leader Huang didn't say a word, but his eyes gradually became moist, and he couldn't help clenching his hands in his sleeves.

"Mr. Gongsun, Lan Sheng is innocent, and so are the people in the theater. I know that Lan Sheng let that heartless man deceive his heart and body, but I don't blame him. He has been close to me since he was a child. Who knew that? The bastard actually has feelings for Lan Sheng, it's really not an exaggeration to kill him a thousand times, Xiang'er just begs you not to embarrass the people in the theater, Lan Sheng is a sensible child, he must know my feelings, and will take good care of me My father can be regarded as a successor to the Huang family, but—" Huang Xiang'er knelt with her back straight, "This matter must not be known to others, otherwise Lan will definitely not be able to hold her head up after her birthday."

Gongsun Ce stood there, staring at Huang Xiang'er, after a long while, he finally nodded and agreed, "Don't worry, Hang Yue will take care of them."

"Thank you, Mr. Gongsun, my wish has come true, you—"

Lan Sheng suddenly rushed out and hugged Huang Xiang'er, "Sister Xiang'er, don't talk nonsense, you covered it up for me, I did it all, I did everything!"

Lan Sheng knelt there and grabbed Gongsun Ce's trousers and kowtowed non-stop, "Mr. Gongsun, I did all of this, my lord, please let me go, I did all of this, really, you believe me, this I did everything!"

Huang Xiang'er stood up, bent down to help Lan Sheng up, and wiped off the blood on his forehead, "Fool, since Mr. Gongsun is here, he has obtained evidence. Even if there is no evidence, I planned to surrender myself and escaped." After a few days, I figured it out, you will take good care of my father for me in the future, and I can feel at ease underground."

"No! You can't go, Master will be sad."

Lan Sheng grabbed Huang Xiang'er's hand and stared at Gongsun Ce warily, "You can't take her away, you can take me away, Sister Xiang'er said that to protect me—"

Leader Huang suddenly said, "Lan Sheng, your surname will be Huang from now on."

The three of Gongsun Ce were stunned and looked at Team Leader Huang.Huang Xiang'er knelt down, "Father, my daughter is not filial."

Huang Xianger followed Gongsun Ce when he came out of the theatre. Seeing this, Hang Yue shook his head and signaled the two policemen to take him away.Looking at Gongsun Ce, he saw that Gongsun Ce's expression was in a trance, as if he was thinking about something, and the corners of his eyes were a little red.

Before he could ask how he was doing, Hua Manlou had already stepped forward and patted Gongsun Ce, "Are you going to the Yamen?"

Gongsun Ce shook his head, "The evidence has been handed over to them, Hangyue can do the rest, I...I want to go back to the inn." After Gongsun Ce finished speaking, the last sentence had a nasal sound, Hua Manlou knew his current mood Not good, nodded in the direction of Hang Yue, and walked in the other direction with Gongsun Ce.

Hang Yue stared at the direction where the two left, and looked at Lan Sheng and Team Leader Huang who came out of the theater. Lan Sheng supported Team Leader Huang, and Team Leader Huang pursed his lips, without saying a word, just staring at Huang Xianger being taken away back.Hang Yue clasped his fists at Team Leader Huang and said: "In the future, I will protect the theater, and whoever has trouble with the theater will have trouble with me. You can just sing at ease, and those messy things won't happen."

Team leader Huang was taken aback for a moment before he said, "Okay, thank you Hang Butou."

At night, Gongsun Ce woke up from a dream, sat sweating profusely, and the Huamanlou next to him moved, Gongsun Ce apologized a little: "Did you wake up?"

"No, I didn't sleep well."

"I..." Gongsun Ce has been in a daze since he came back to the inn in the afternoon. He just fell asleep for a while, and he has been talking in his sleep a few times. Now that he woke up with a start, it must be related to this case.

Gongsun Ce shook his head and said, "I think..."

"Knock Knock-"

"Who?"

"The two young masters are from the government." Xiao Er agreed outside: "If it is convenient for the two young masters, he will wait for you downstairs."

Hearing that Gongsun Ce lifted the quilt, put on his coat, and ran downstairs without waiting for Hua Manlou, seeing a policeman standing there, Gongsun Ce had a bad premonition and asked, "What's the matter?" , you have to come in the middle of the night."

"...Huang Xiang'er committed suicide in prison."

This sentence shocked Gongsun Ce, and he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, "I see, you go to the yamen first, and I will go there early tomorrow morning. By the way, do you still want to go to the theater? Don't go for now, tomorrow morning ... let's go again."

"Yes."

The police left quickly, Gongsun Ce stood there, motionless, suddenly a gust of wind blew, felt a little cold, looked at his feet, only to find that he ran out without even wearing shoes, couldn't help but smiled wryly and shook his head, intending to go back upstairs superior.

Standing at the door, Hua Manlou heard the sound of Gongsun Ce coming up, and pushed the door open, "If you can't sleep, sit and talk for a while."

"Shouldn't I?"

It shouldn't be that Gongsun Ce didn't say anything, but for the first time, some wanted not to catch the murderer, and suddenly remembered the previous cases, it seemed that every time he hovered on the edge of truth and emotion, the murderer was someone he knew and was a friend, but they killed him. Killed people, some killed innocent people, some killed damned people, for a moment Gongsun Ce didn't know whether he should or shouldn't persist in this way.

Huamanlou was taken aback when he was pouring tea, and then said: "Your persistence is the truth, and the things behind the truth have nothing to do with you."

Gongsun Ce felt guilty, because the murderer committed the crime with justifiable circumstances, but killing is killing, which is understandable.Those reasons have little to do with Gongsun Ce, even if they are extenuating, they have nothing to do with Gongsun Ce.

Hearing this, Gongsun Ce smiled wryly, holding the quilt with both hands, "Huang Xiang'er committed suicide."

"It might be better to do this."

Being able to keep the theatre, can avoid an interrogation, the interrogation cannot escape the reason for the murder, if the reason is revealed, how will Lan be a man in the future?Being forced into child molestation?For people to have fun, or to say that you want to get involved in the relationship between two people?

The dead die, but the living continue to live.

Sitting at dawn, the two of them changed their clothes and went to the yamen. At the gate of the yamen, they ran into people from the theater. Lan Sheng, together with several other troupe disciples, was carrying two corpses.Lan Sheng saw Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou, nodded to them, and then told the rest to leave.

Hang Yue came out from the yamen to see them, stepped forward and said: "The body was brought back for burial."

"kindness."

"are you OK?"

"Do I look bad?"

Hang Yue rubbed the back of his head, "No, I'm just worried that you think it's your fault, but this incident is nothing more than a tragedy. Tomorrow is July [-]th, and they will be buried just now."

"From now on, the theater will have to trouble you to take care of it."

"What's the matter, I see these boys are safe and sound, it's okay for me to take care of one or two, besides, Yueying also likes to listen to operas, so she might take advantage of going to listen to operas." Hang Yue deliberately joked: "The case is understood, and the case four years ago has also been solved. Where are you going?"

When Hang Yue asked, Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou didn't answer for a while, Hua Manlou thought for a while and said, "I'll leave tomorrow and go to Jiangnan. Stay here for a few more days."

"Jiangnan is good. It's only a few days away from here. The scenery there is beautiful and charming. If there is a chance in the future, I will take Yueying back. She misses it very much."

"Yueying is from Jiangnan?"

"kindness."

The three were chatting, and Hang Yue said that he had prepared good wine and food today, and asked them to be guests at home.Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou thought they had nowhere to go, so they went back together with Hang Yue, bought some cooked food on the way, and just after paying the money, they met Xiuhe's mother and son.

Seeing the three of them, Xiuhe nodded with a smile, "Thank you, my lords, for not embarrassing Lan Sheng."

"It took many years for your siblings to meet again, but now Lan Sheng may not be able to accompany you often."

"It's okay, it's good to know that he is doing well." After Xiuhe finished speaking, she took the child and left.

Hang Yue shook his head and sighed, "Things in this world are impermanent, no one can tell what will happen in the future, just like me, I never thought that Yueying would leave everything behind and come here with me, but since she is willing, I You must treat her well for the rest of your life."

"You are so happy today, could it be something good?"

"She doesn't hide wine anymore."

"Hahaha, you really are a drunkard."

Hang Yue also laughed loudly, "It's not too bad to be a drunkard, but there are quite a lot of drunkards in this stomach."

When they came to Hangyue's house, Yueying had already prepared a table of good wine and food, and the two of them gave the cooked food to Yueying. After all, the truth has come to light, three busy people, don't talk about the case at the dinner table this time, the imperial wife."

"How dare you."

"Madam has already spoken, so I naturally won't mention it anymore."

Yueying smiled and poured wine for the three of them, "Hangyue is lucky to be able to make two friends."

"My sister-in-law is polite, but I heard that my sister-in-law is from Jiangnan. We are going to Jiangnan now. If you want to go, you might as well come to us and exchange our friendship as a landlord." Gongsun Ce said: "Otherwise you will eat and drink for nothing. I can't hang on to this face."

"Gongsun Gongzi's words are outrageous, but I haven't gone back to Jiangnan for many years. I don't know where you plan to go?"

"Gusu."

"Is it Gusu? It just so happens that my natal family is also in Gusu."

In this way, it is fate.

At the dinner table, I didn't feel that there was nothing to say, chatted a few words, sipped wine and delicious food as a backdrop, it took an hour for the four of us to finish the meal, Hang Yue was not drunk this time, but he was Thinking of something, he asked: "Last time, Playboy said that he agreed to compete with me, how about now, I want to ask Playboy for advice."

"This is--"

"Tomorrow you are leaving. It is better to hit the sun than choose the day. Right now, I will make the first move." Hang Yue did not play the card according to common sense at all, and directly made a move at Hua Manlou, who was quite helpless. The fan blocks the fist and moves back.

Raising the corner of his mouth, he said, "That's an offence."

Gongsun Ce and Yue Ying had no choice but to clean up the table, so as not to shatter the bowl later.

Moving the table away, the yard became more spacious, Yue Ying and Gongsun Ce sat on the side to watch the two gesture.

"Sister-in-law is pregnant?"

Yue Ying looked at Gongsun Ce in surprise and said, "Are you good at medicine? You didn't even notice him, and you still stay with me every day. What a fool."

He couldn't help complaining a few words, which made Gongsun Ce laugh and said: "Hang Yue is just slow to these things, but my sister-in-law is only a month pregnant, so it's better to be careful during this time, but I see your pulse should be stable, my child Looks great."

"I went to see the doctor quietly, and the doctor said the same thing."

There was a gentle smile on Yue Ying's face, she stared at Hang Yue and said: "I have never regretted it, even though it was hard to be with him at the beginning, it was worth it for him to be nice to me, two people have to look at each other His mind and character are good, so I naturally follow him."

"Sister-in-law can see clearly that he has always felt ashamed of you."

"That's what he is."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gongsun Ce, and then looked at Huamanlou over there with a deep smile, "You will do the same, I can tell that he protects you everywhere, even blocks the wine for you, and even the slightest bit Without showing any traces, with delicate thoughts and rare seriousness."

Hearing that Gongsun Ce's ears were burning, he didn't expect Yueying to see it, but - this is not something that cannot be said.

"I know he's good, otherwise I wouldn't be with him like this."

"It's worth it for him to be able to make up his mind. In this relationship, no one suffers and no one owes anyone." After Yue Ying finished speaking, she stood up and looked at Hang Yue over there, "This man can't beat him but still fights hard. Playboy is really right. He's being polite, so we should take a good look at his spirit."

Gongsun Ce laughed and said, "Sister-in-law really knows people with eyes."

Sitting there, looking at Huamanlou, Gongsun Ce felt that Huamanlou's smooth kung fu was really pleasing to the eye.

The next day, Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou were walking on the street with their bundles on their backs, and the coachman was tying the horses with ropes. Suddenly, there was a sound from the corner of the street. The sky was dark, and the sound of suona on the street attracted the attention of the three of them. Gongsun Ce heard the sound and looked around, seeing that it was Huang Xianger and Yan Yu's funeral procession, he froze there.

Team leader Huang walked in the front, Lan Sheng was holding the tablet, and a group of people walked in front of them all the way, Gongsun Ce shook his head and turned around and said, "Ada, drive out of the city."

"Yes, son."

After getting into the carriage, there were faint voices from outside, but Gongsun Ce calmed down the guilt in his heart, put aside the things here, looked at Huamanlou and said, "I won't encounter anything else this time, otherwise this It will take a while before I can go back to Jiangnan."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou smiled and agreed, "Of course nothing will happen to me again."

The weather is getting better and better, but the closer it gets to Gusu, the hotter the day makes people feel drowsy and exhausted. I wish I could soak in the water and sleep for twelve hours.In the scorching summer, it took three days to arrive in Gusu.Hua Manlou and Gongsun Ce got out of the carriage, paid the driver a lot of money, and let the driver settle down by himself.

"Why don't you go directly to Hua's house?"

"The scenery in Gusu is so beautiful, even the houses on the street are very elegant. It doesn't take much effort to walk in from here." Huamanlou waved a fan, and walked in with Huamanlou, "But the Huamanlou The owner is not here, this is just my residence."

Gongsun Ce raised his eyes and looked at Huamanlou suspiciously, "So that's the case, but you are really strange, everyone doesn't live together, Hua Yixuan lives in Yangzhou, you live here, the owner of the Hua family is Master Hua It’s really interesting to not be here or in Yangzhou.”

"People from the Hua family have always been used to being free." After Hua Manlou finished speaking, he and Gongsun Ce gradually walked into the downtown area.

Gongsun Ce, who had never been to Gusu before, looked around. No matter whether it was a man or a woman, they all behaved elegantly and gracefully, and they were outstanding. "I've lived here for a long time, so I don't want to leave. No wonder you like it here."

"Here, you can always calm down."

"kindness."

While speaking, there was a rush of footsteps coming towards them. Before Gongsun Ce could see who the visitor was, the visitor grabbed Hua Manlou who was beside him and said, "Master, you may be considered to be back. If you don't come back , the word in Baihualou will suffer.”

Hua Manlou was also taken aback, thinking that he was in the original world, but then he couldn't help laughing when he thought about it, "I usually ask you to take care of it, but you are always lazy. You know everything else, but you haven't learned how to treat these flowers and plants. "

"Young master taught me the lesson, Huaping will never dare again in the future."

"A Ce, let's go back first."

Gongsun Ce was taken aback, nodded, and asked in a low voice as he walked, "Is he the one who usually takes care of you by your side? What kind of name is bad, but it's called Huaping. Didn't you give this name?"

Hua Manlou laughed but said nothing, Gongsun Ce almost choked on himself, "Actually, this name is easier to remember."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou smiled even deeper, "It is indeed easier to remember."

When he came to the Baihua Building, Gongsun Ce realized that the Baihua Building was not an exaggeration. You can see the flowers and plants on the second floor below. When the flowers are in full bloom, there are a few butterflies flying among the flowers. Gongsun Ce raised his head After staring at it for a while, I looked back at Huamanlou, "I'm afraid I can smell the fragrance of this flower when I sleep at night, but the smell is somewhat similar to yours."

"Perhaps it has been in these flowers and plants for a long time."

However, it has been nearly two years since he left Baihualou. Gongsun Ce can still remember the smell on his body that day. He is surprised, "It will be better to go up and see."

"Where's Huaping?"

"He went to the back kitchen to prepare food, and wrote a letter to tell the elder brother that I'm back." After Hua Manlou explained, he took Gongsun Ce to the second floor, and it was no different from the Baihualou in his memory. Manlou felt relieved and said with a smile: "There is a yard behind, a kitchen, a place where Huaping lives, and a pavilion."

Hearing this, Gongsun Ce nodded and agreed, "I will definitely live here for a long time, and I will know it slowly."

On the second floor, when you open the door, you will find a bedroom full of flowers. The place where the bedroom sticks out is the place where those flowers and plants are placed. There are no doors to separate them, but two curtains, one thick and the other light, the usual thick one They are all opened to one side, and will be put down when the weather turns cold.

Glancing at the tea set on the table, Gongsun Ce reached out and touched the cup. Seeing Huamanlou walking among the flowers and plants, holding the kettle next to them to water the flowers and plants, he simply sat down and stared at Huamanlou with his chin in his hand. , playing with a teacup in his hand.Huamanlou's movements are very gentle, treating those flowers and plants as if treating a young baby, meticulous and careful, and you can see the smile on the corner of his mouth from the side.

Gentle as water.

Hua Manlou suddenly raised his head and turned to Gongsun Ce's direction, Gongsun Ce was taken aback for a moment, as if he felt that Hua Manlou could see his own appearance, he felt awkward and nervous, and the smile on the corner of his mouth froze instantly.

"Do you like it here?"

"what?"

"I want you to know my usual life."

Huamanlou was with Gongsun Ce, and already knew about Gongsun Ce's daily life, but Gongsun Ce didn't know what he was doing before Huamanlou met him. , "I will be with you and live your life in Baihualou."

Holding Hua Manlou's hand, Hua Manlou smiled and nodded.

Hua Ping opened the door and came in and shouted, "Master, Master Gongsun, I have finished the things for you to wash away the wind and dust. I am not good at craftsmanship, so I ordered some from the restaurant, and the restaurant has already delivered them. I don't believe it. It was given to the master."

"kindness."

Hua Ping put down his things, closed the door and went downstairs to work, Hua Manlou put down the kettle, and went back to the room with Gongsun Ce, they sat down, Gongsun Ce saw the dishes on the table and knew it was Hua's restaurant, " Could it be that your eldest brother really listened to your words and gradually turned the Hua family's main business into business? But it's good, it's better than being tricked by others in the Jianghu. You have to think about it if the people above are asking for schemes."

"Brother has long been interested in it, and that incident just played a role in promoting it."

"By the way, next month is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Do you want to go back to the Hua family's main house?"

"If you receive a letter, you will naturally have to go back." Hua Manlou finished, "Don't worry, the Hua family will not make things difficult for you."

"I'm not worried about this reborn farmer raising wolves." Gongsun Ce pouted and said, "Forget it, don't mention this, it's the same anyway, but I heard that the Lantern Festival at night in Gusu Mid-Autumn Festival is very beautiful, no Know--"

It was only after Hua Manlou heard what Gongsun Ce cared about, "If you want to be here, here it is."

"But every time the Lantern Festival always encounters something, it makes me afraid to go again, lest it will be another disaster." Gongsun Ce thought of Huang Xianger's matter, but only a few days have passed, and now looking back, he feels vague If it's a lifetime away.

It was originally a good marriage, but it was ruined by Yan Yu's life, and Yan Yu's intentions were all to blame.

Poor Huang Xianger, father and daughter and Lan Sheng.

"Go for a walk in the back garden later?"

"It's better to sit in the temple. I have been haunted by nightmares for a few days, and I always feel a little uneasy. I go to the temple to talk to the abbot, and maybe I can get rid of my knot." This matter is not his fault, but Gongsun But Ce was plagued by nightmares and couldn't rest well for several days, always thinking about that case.

I don't believe there are ghosts in the crime, but Gongsun Ce made this request because he was afraid that his restless sleep at night would affect Huamanlou.

Hearing this, he said, "Do as you say."

After the meal, the two walked towards the temple while walking. When they reached the door, there was a little girl selling Buddhist beads at the door, and said: "You two come to offer incense? Look at my beads, they are very beautiful, and they will definitely bless you. safe and sound."

"us--"

"Bring us two skewers."

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir." The little girl handed the beads to Huamanlou with a smile on her face, collected the money, and continued to sell.

Gongsun Ce looked curiously at Huamanlou and said, "What are you buying this for? We don't usually wear it."

"A little girl goes out to earn money."

Gongsun Ce smiled and said: "If you were someone else, they would say that you are going to take advantage of that little girl." After speaking, he also felt a little funny, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Tell me, is this the truth?"

"Isn't the story of the rich young master and the poor girl written like this in the playbooks? Or the other way around, the rich lady and the poor scholar." Gongsun Ce read some playbooks in his free time, and the more he read, the more he felt the story in the playbooks. As expected, things will only exist in the playbook.

How can there be so many coincidences in the world and how can there be so many resentful lovers.

"When did you like the playbook?"

"It's not that I like it, but I thought about it after that case and found some to read. I wanted to see what the people in the theater usually watched. After reading it, I found that maybe it was because there were so many plays that made the audience so excited. They think that the feelings in the world should be so vigorous and turbulent, that it is worth living once in the world, but they forget that it is not easy to have one person who loves each other and loves each other."

Gongsun Ce didn't want to read those scripts anymore, even though he felt that some plots in it did exist, but it shouldn't end like that.

Although the world is helpless, it will not reach such a point.

After entering the temple, they added incense, oil and money, and the two of them were led by a young novice to the outside of the meditation room where the presider usually practiced meditation. .

After Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou entered, they saluted the host.

"I've seen the host."

"Please sit down, both of you."

"Thank you, host, for the trouble."

Politeness is respect for the host. The two sat cross-legged, closed their eyes, and waited for the host to speak.

☆、105|〡〡〡Fat family

The host has been meditating, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, and beating the wooden fish in front of him, every time it seems to be hitting Gongsun Ce's heart.The red sandalwood incense in the room gradually dissipated Gongsun Ce's uneasiness for the past few days and the fear of nightmares in his heart. The sound of wooden fish came to his ears, and his heart became calm.

The leaves in the courtyard outside were rustling, Gongsun Ce closed his eyes, his brows stretched, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Half an hour later, the sound of the wooden fish stopped. Gongsun Ce slowly opened his eyes, looked at the host in front of him, and closed his palms together, "Thank you, host."

"Young Master is an intelligent man, and he understands at a glance that the old monk is just a wooden fish that has been knocking for half an hour." Sitting there, Wu Wu glanced at Gongsun Ce with a soft expression and kindness in his eyes, which made Gongsun Ce feel even stronger in his heart. Calm, nodding.

Hua Manlou next to him stood up, nodded to Wu Wu, and left the meditation room with Gongsun Ce.There was a bodhi tree outside the meditation room. The two stood under the tree. When they looked up, a gust of wind happened to blow by. The rustling sound of the leaves was clearer than that heard inside the meditation room.Gongsun Ce walked into the tree, and caught a glimpse of a piece of resin on the tree, inside which was printed the body of a bug, black and frozen inside.

Gongsun Ce stretched out his hand to touch it, and then said with a smile: "After decades or hundreds of years, this thing will have the value of collection."

"Everyone is like this, thinking that things from the past are more meaningful than things from the present." Hua Manlou raised his hand, held a leaf between his hands, and handed it to Gongsun Ce.Gongsun Ce smiled after being surprised, took the leaf, put it in the palm of his hand, and carefully looked at the texture.

I have been resting badly for a while, and now I am finally relieved.

Hua Manlou and Gongsun Ce left the temple and walked on the street, hearing the voices of peddlers and children joking.Gusu in August is very lively, and there are many people who come to play. The talented and beautiful women go boating to recite poems and compose Fu.Gongsun Ce and Huamanlou felt comfortable just walking like this, and before they knew it, they made a detour and returned to Baihualou.

Standing outside Baihua Building, Gongsun Ce looked up at the plaque, and suddenly asked, "Do you usually go up from the first floor?"

As the voice fell, Huamanlou seemed to be taken aback for a moment. Just as Gongsun Ce was about to speak, Huamanlou hugged him and went straight up to the second floor. Gongsun Ce glanced at the exclamational people on the street in surprise, and said with a smile: " At least you got me ready."

"A pleasant surprise."

"It's quite a surprise, but... I don't know if I like it or not." Gongsun Ce bent down to look at the flowers and plants, which were carefully pruned and taken good care of.Huamanlou's love and longing for life can be seen from these flowers and plants.

One can see a person's character by treating one thing. Gongsun Ce knew that Huamanlou was the same as what he thought in his heart, or even better.

Looking back at the Flower Manlou behind the veil, Gongsun Ce straightened up and walked in, "Qitong, tell me... how about I take care of these flowers and plants with you? You haven't told me how to take care of them. I haven't Got these."

"You want to learn?"

"Well, otherwise I can only watch when you take care of them." I always feel itchy while watching, and want to try it myself.But anyone can see that Huamanlou is very fond of these flowers and plants, and it would be bad if he touches them casually.

"after lunch."

"it is good."

Gongsun Ce heard a noise from downstairs. He went outside and looked downstairs, and found that several children were playing together and started fighting. The young one who was being bullied was squatting on the ground crying, and the others looked at each other. They all ran away.Gongsun Ce thought about it, and went back to the room to ask Hua Ping to see what was going on.

Upon hearing this, Hua Ping went down immediately, took a piece of candy, and coaxed the child after a while.

"Brother said, bring the child over."

"kindness?"

"The half-year-old child has not yet been named." After Hua Manlou finished speaking, Hua Ping brought in the lunch, put it down and left. "Master, Mr. Gongsun, as the young master said, the people from Yangzhou should arrive within two days, and there will be a wet nurse following them. You don't have to worry about the young master and young master, but the wet nurse is carrying a child, who is older than the young master. I'm afraid it's—"

Hearing this, Hua Manlou said: "Build a room in the back garden for the nurse, mother and son. When the young master comes, he will find a careful girl to take care of him. Remember to be quick and innocent."

"I know, sir."

"Well, let's go down."

In the afternoon, Gongsun Ce leaned on the door frame and watched Huamanlou watering the flowers and plants, while explaining what to do. When Huamanlou put the water bottle into his hand, he realized that he hadn’t remembered anything at all. I just wrote down one thing, don't water the flowers and plants too much, you need to water them in moderation, otherwise the roots will be soaked.Gongsun Ce thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know how much the right amount was, so he could only pour some casually.

As soon as it was poured, someone suddenly stuck up behind him, with his back pressed against his chest, Gongsun Ce couldn't help laughing, and turned his head to ask: "Young man, you are trying to benefit yourself from public affairs."

"Is there?" Hua Manlou asked back, with a serious tone, "Gongsun Gongzi should be more serious."

Being repelled by the general, Gongsun Ce curled his lips and bit his head at Hua Manlou's chin, "That dude, are you duplicity?" How can you do this, a teaser without changing your face.

Putting down the things in his hand, Gongsun Ce turned back and pushed Hua Manlou against the table, leaned over Hua Manlou's body, bowed his head and kissed him without any hesitation.

Hua Manlou circled Gongsun Ce's waist, let Gongsun Ce be self-willed for a while, then held Gongsun Ce's hand and stood up straight, rebelling against the guest and wreaking havoc on Gongsun Ce's lips, until the two of them were breathing quickly and heavily, and then reluctantly separated.Gongsun Ce leaned on Huamanlou's shoulder, and his breathing became steady for a while, before he looked up at Huamanlou, curling his lips in dissatisfaction.

"I envy you guys who know kung fu."

"Do you want to learn?"

"Forget it." Thinking about waking up early and practicing the zama step every day, it was really torture for Gongsun Ce.When he was still in the academy, he had to get up early every day, and he could sleep in if he didn't go to the academy, so he realized how happy Bao Zheng was when he slept in every day.

It's not lazy, just don't learn from young people at a young age.

Thinking of young people, Gongsun Ce suddenly thought of Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao. He didn't know where Bai Yutang was, whether he went to Dingyuan County with Bao Zheng or continued to roam the rivers and lakes with Four Mouse.Thinking about it, he lost his mind, sat there and didn't even come back to his senses even when Hua Manlou called him.

Hua ManLou didn't bother, just walked out.

Hua Ping was cleaning, when he saw Hua Man Lou, he asked a little strangely: "Master, do you have any orders?"

"Is it because Big Brother made you like this?"

"Returning to the young master, the eldest young master said yes, and everything will be done according to the young master's letter." After Hua Ping finished speaking, he smiled, "The young master has really changed a bit when he came back from a long trip, but what the young master said in the letter Academy, there is one here, it’s not far away, I didn’t want it for half an hour in the past.”

Hua Manlou nodded when he heard footsteps, "Yes, go ask."

"Yes, master, I'll go right away."

Hua Ping went to the academy to inquire about things, Hua Manlou turned around and stood, and Gongsun Ce who came down from the upstairs stood there and said: "You have even thought of this, but the matter of going to the academy... is not bad, it can be regarded as regaining old career. "

"Growing flowers is not suitable for you, but being a husband is more suitable for you."

Hearing the teasing in the words, Gongsun Ce's ears were a little red, he touched the tip of his nose and said, "Everyone has their own strengths, as the saying goes... Well, does the child really have my last name? You..."

"No matter what the surname is, we are all the fathers of the child." Hua Manlou stepped forward and stood in front of Gongsun Ce. Because Gongsun Ce was standing on the stairs, he was a little taller than Hua Manlou, looking at Hua Manlou's face, he couldn't help but bend over. mouth up.

How lucky to have Huamanlou as a company.

In the early morning of the second day, there was the sound of wheels rolling outside the Baihua Building, and they stopped at the door.Gongsun Ce and Hua Manlou lifted the quilt and got up to get dressed. When they got dressed, Hua Ping had already brought in the mother and son and the young master of Baihualou.

Seeing the two people who came down from the stairs, the nurse embraced her child and said, "Yue Niang has seen the two young masters."

"En." Hua Manlou nodded, and ordered: "Hua Ping, you take Yue Niang to settle down in the back garden and give the child to me."

Hua Ping responded, carefully handed the child to Hua Man Lou, and took Yue Niang to the back garden.Gongsun Ce was still standing sleepily, rubbing his eyes and stretching his neck to look at the little guy in Huamanlou's arms.It was too early, and he was still sleeping with his eyes closed and a jade bone in his mouth. The sound of his thin breathing made Gongsun Ce smile in a daze, and reached out to touch his soft face.

Subconsciously said: "This child is so beautiful."

"Take it to sleep, are you still sleepy?"

"Hmm...it's still not bright, so I'm still a little sleepy, aren't you sleepy?"

Huamanlou shook his head, carried the child upstairs, Gongsun Ce wobbled to follow, arrived in the room, walked directly to the bed, and lay down on his own. Just when he was about to turn over, Huamanlou put the baby in swaddling clothes. Beside him, Gongsun Ce stopped in an instant.

"No, isn't it in the cradle?"

"kindness?"

"...In this way, I dare not turn over." Gongsun Ce used to sleep alone, but he was not restless, he just turned over habitually, and it was the same when he was with Huamanlou. Every day when he woke up and when he fell asleep, it was different. .

Putting such a soft child by his side, Gongsun Ce shrank back carefully, "I, why don't I get up too."

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "It won't be pressed, you can sleep peacefully."

Gongsun Ce didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and lay stiffly, "I can't sleep even more when you say that." Staring at the sleeping face of the child, Gongsun Ce yawned, his eyelids began to fight uncontrollably due to sleepiness.

Hearing that Huamanlou was sitting on the side, he couldn't help laughing, and went to those flowers and plants and started watering them.

But after a while, there was the sound of large and small breathing in the room, Hua Manlou raised the corners of his mouth, straightened up, put down the kettle, and turned back to the room.close
