[Lu Xiaofeng] Beside the flowers and the willows

next day

Hua Manlou didn't know when she fell asleep. When she woke up, she only felt the warmth in her arms. She subconsciously stretched out her hand to touch it. When her palm touched a round and smooth shoulder, she suddenly trembled. He woke up completely, and his whole body was stiff.

After a while, until it was confirmed that the person in his arms was still asleep and did not wake up, he breathed a sigh of relief, carefully removed the little girl's hand holding him, covered her carefully with the quilt, and stood up. After getting out of bed, she opened the door and left her room almost in a state of embarrassment.

Hua Manlou closed the door of the little girl's room softly, feeling a little relieved, and involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief, but... the breath was not completely relieved, and her heart was immediately hung in her throat——

"Qitong, did you sleep well last night?"

Hua Manting was leaning against the door of another room, with a half smile on his face.

——Baihualou has only three bedrooms in total, which are arranged side by side. Huamanting leans against the door of his own room, so he can clearly see the scene of Huamanlou coming out of the little girl's room.

Hua Manlou paused, a slight blush immediately appeared on his face, he coughed twice in embarrassment, and did not answer, but asked, "Sixth brother, what time is it now?"

Hua Manting glanced at him, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's time."

Si time?Hua Manlou was slightly taken aback, suddenly a little bit at a loss, but Hua Manting did not let him go, walked unhurriedly from the door to Hua Manlou, patted his shoulder, his tone was full of meaning Shen Chang: "I only woke up at Sishi, it seems that I slept quite well?"

Hua Manlou opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't continue - he usually had a regular schedule and woke up on time every day, but today he was nearly two hours late... After all, I'm not used to lying, so I can't deny it. Although I was a little restless last night, once I fell asleep, it was a good night's dream. I slept more peacefully than ever before...

But things were not as Sixth Brother imagined—Hua Manlou was silent for a while, and decided to ignore his elder brother's teasing, but straightened his expression, turned his head to "look" at Hua Manting, and explained seriously: " Brother Six, don't get me wrong, Ah Mo is... still a child."

"Of course she's not a child anymore," Hua Manting continued Hua Manlou's words almost without a pause, the corners of his eyes slightly raised, implying something, "Girls in their [-]s and [-]s are the most beautiful and lovely, of course you are better than her." I know better, huh?"

"I..." Huamanlou was at a loss for words, and for some reason, the scene of the little girl yelling hot and rubbing against her arms from last night reappeared in her mind, as well as her round and lovely shoulders... Huamanlou Qingjun His face was blushed all of a sudden, and he couldn't speak a word.

Hua Manlou has been a well-behaved and mature child since he was a child. Hua Manting can't remember the last time his younger brother was so embarrassed and annoyed. After looking up and down for a long time, I finally had enough. I stretched my waist and stretched my muscles and bones, and leaned against the pillars in the corridor, with a smile on my lips, feeling very comfortable:

"Qitong, you said that you treat the little girl as a child and as a younger sister. Xia'er from Yunjian Temple and you are also childhood sweethearts, and they have a brother-sister relationship, but you don't even touch her head, and you never let go of her sleeves." Did she pull it? You have always had a good temper, but when did you become so intimate with a girl? You even slept in the same room with her, huh?"

"Brother Six, Ah Mo was drunk last night." Hua Manlou frowned, and was rarely in a hurry to explain, "I was caught by her and couldn't get away, that's why..."

Before Hua Manlou finished speaking, Hua Manting laughed out loud as if he had heard some particularly funny joke, so much that he could hardly straighten his waist:

"Qitong, are you lying to me or yourself? No matter how good her martial arts are, can she still be higher than you? Hua Manlou can't even get rid of a drunk girl?"

"Brother Six, I..."

"Okay Qitong," Hua Manting waved his hands, interrupted him helplessly, looked him up and down, shook his head and sighed, "What do you think, of course only you I know, I don’t need to explain anything to Brother Six, I’d better hurry up and change clothes and freshen up.”

Hua Manlou was choked by him, and felt that it was wrong not to explain to Sixth Brother, but when he explained it, he seemed to cover up, and he didn't know how to deal with it. He stood there for a while, at a loss, and finally waved his sleeves, helplessly "Alas", turned and went back to the room.

Hua Manting looked at his younger brother's almost once-in-a-century gaffe, and raised the corners of his mouth with interest.

……

When Liu Mogui woke up, it was already close to noon. The little girl rubbed her still aching head and sat up on the bed. Only then did she realize that she didn't even take off her outer robe when she slept last night, but her clothes were Being pulled into a mess, even his shoulders were exposed, he couldn't help scratching his hair with a guilty conscience—it's no wonder why the senior brother always doesn't let himself drink, yesterday should be... didn't do anything strange, right?

The little girl rubbed her head and tried hard to think back, but found that her memory of last night was only that she secretly drank wine, and then Hua Manlou comforted her that she would definitely send her home, and then it was blank.

It should be that he returned to the room after sending himself back, right?Otherwise... nothing else will happen!The little girl thought hard and did not come to fruition, so she simply stopped entangled, lifted the quilt, got up and got out of bed, and was about to change clothes and wash, but suddenly heard a slight "click", and when she lowered her head, she saw A-Gump rubbing against her. legs and waist.

The little girl smiled, bent down and gave it a hug: "Forrest Gump, good morning!"

Forrest-Gump continued to rub her twice in response, the little girl was itchy for a while, and couldn't help laughing softly: "Forrest-Gump, don't make trouble, it's getting late and I have to get up to wash up!"

A-Gump has always been well-behaved, but at this time he didn't know why he suddenly became mischievous. Instead of letting go of the little girl, he even rubbed against the little girl even harder—Liu Mogui gradually seemed to realize that something was wrong, and stretched out He poked it with his finger, and asked with some hesitation: "A-Gump, do you have something to tell me?"

Forrest-Gump rubbed against her—is this considered approval?

The little girl froze for a moment, then continued to ask: "Then... what is it?"

As soon as the little girl's words fell, A-Gump seemed to get anxious, and rubbed his chubby body against the little girl again and again, as if there was something urgent, but—the little girl became more and more bewildered: "Ah Gan, what are you trying to say? I don't understand."

A-Gump can't speak, and doesn't even have hands—it only has two legs, a chubby body, and tool boxes on both sides of the body, and it can hardly express anything clearly.

A-Gump saw that the little girl was getting more and more bewildered, and immediately became more anxious. He ran around the little girl twice, and walked a few steps towards the wall. After working hard for a while, he saw that the little girl was still in a daze. , finally seemed to give up, and stopped "dejectedly", standing next to the little girl and never moving again.

Liu Mogui hugged it and stroked it soothingly, comforting softly: "A-Gump, don't be sad, in the future, I will definitely let you talk, just like the Wali that Master gave to Senior Brother Pei!"

A-Gump gently rubbed against her twice, as if he had finally given up completely and stopped bothering her, and stepped aside obediently, making room for the little girl to change her clothes.

The little girl quickly changed her clothes and combed her hair, opened the door and left the room, and then saw Hua Manting sitting on a chair by the corridor with a stack of snacks, eating one after another, There was a pot of tea and several teacups on the chair next to him, so he immediately greeted him obediently:

"Morning sixth brother."

"Morning Mo," Hua Manting waved to her and asked with a smile, "Did Ah Mo sleep well last night?"

"I slept well," the little girl laughed, tilting her head slightly as if thinking of something, "Last night's pillow seems to be very comfortable..."

As soon as the little girl's voice fell, there was a sound of staggering footsteps from the side. Liu Mogui was taken aback, and turned their heads together with Hua Manting, and saw Hua Manlou pushing open the door and coming out. He staggered and nearly fell.

"Hua Man Lou, are you alright?" The little girl ran over immediately, a little nervously trying to reach out to help him, but just as his hand touched his sleeve, he instinctively avoided it, and the little girl stretched out her hand to grab him. He was stunned for a moment, bit his lip, withdrew his hand and looked up at him, just about to ask him what's wrong, but suddenly paused, and asked a little strangely:

"Hua Man Lou, why is your face so red? Is it too hot from wearing too many clothes?"

"Cough..." Hua Manlou coughed in embarrassment, "Maybe."

"Then..." The little girl blinked suspiciously, and wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by Hua Manting:

"Qitong is fine, probably...the quilt was too thick and hot last night."

As Hua Manting spoke, he picked the corners of his eyes, and looked back and forth between Hua Manlou and Liu Mogui. Seeing the little girl's dazed expression, a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he coughed lightly in a concealed manner. With a cry, he hid the amused look in his eyes, lowered his head and poured a glass of water, and stretched out his hand to beckon the little girl:

"Ah Mo, are you thirsty after drinking last night? Come and have a cup of tea."

"Okay!" The little girl's eyes lit up when she heard the words, she trotted to Hua Manting's side, picked up the cup, raised her head and drank the water in one gulp, "Thank you brother six!"

Hua Manting shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand to pour another glass of water for the little girl, and asked tentatively, "Ah Mo, do you still remember what you did last night?"

The author has something to say: Of course she is not a child anymore, of course you know it better than me... Tsk, Brother Six must be issued a [Xiao Ming] certificate!

The pillows last night were very comfortable... Tsk ╮(╯_╰)╭
