Cold Sword Perched Peach Blossom

Seeing Lin Rufei's shocked face, Gu Xuandu also realized that he seemed to have misunderstood what he meant, and quickly said: "It's not what you think - I mean, it's grown by me, you can eat it anyway .”

Lin Rufei looked carefully, only to find that the chirping little doll was a little ginseng tied with a red string, but it had hands and feet, and it looked like it was crying on the table, no matter how you looked at it, it was no different from a human child. .

Gu Xuan was annoyed by the baby's crying, he slapped the table and said angrily: "What are you crying for!" The little baby stopped sobbing, fell down on the table and turned into a hard ginseng again.

Lin Rufei's voice was still very weak: "My body is weak and cannot be nourished, and taking these tonic medicines is of little use."

Gu Xuandu said: "This ginseng is different."

Lin Rufei said, "What's the difference?"

Gu Xuan thought for a while: "Special love!"

Lin Rufei couldn't help laughing. He said that for his body, the Lin family bought eight hundred tonics, if not one thousand, but they didn't see any effect after those years of supplementation, which made him tired of these tonics. .I don't know where Gu Xuandu found the ginseng doll, it was still alive and kicking, so he carried it to the dining table, wanting to feast on it.

Fortunately, Gu Xuandu didn't have any obsession with supplementing Lin Rufei's body. Seeing Lin Rufei's firm refusal, he sighed a pity, then grabbed the ginseng doll by its hair and threw it on the ground.The ginseng doll entered the soil as soon as it saw it, but disappeared on the ground in the blink of an eye.

Lin Rufei burned for a day and a night, her bones were almost burnt, and she leaned limply on the head of the bed.

Fuhua Yurui, who had been waiting outside, heard the sound of him waking up, and then entered the room, and fed the freshly made porridge to Lin Rufei's lips,

Lin Rufei didn't have much appetite, so she said she was full after taking two sips in a foolish way.

After Fuhua persuaded her softly for a long time, Lin Rufei reluctantly drank another half of the bowl, and was unwilling to move the rest.

Helpless, Fu Hua had no choice but to put down the bowl in her hand, and said softly: "Master, the Meng family knew about our coming to Xinzhou, and wanted to send someone to pick us up to the Meng Mansion this morning... but you were still asleep, so we declined gone."

"They knew I was coming?" Lin Rufei coughed a few times, "How did they know so quickly?"

"It seems to be because of the movement on the river..." Fuhua said, "The dragon is gone, and several forces will naturally inquire about it, but the Meng family's actions are relatively fast. Go to Meng's house and hand in the invitation card of the sword club, and then find a better inn in the city to recuperate?"

The Meng family is a big family in Xinzhou, and one of the invitation targets of the Kunlun Sword Association. Lin Rufei's Xuna ring contains an invitation card belonging to their family.

What Fu Hua said was somewhat reasonable, Lin Rufei didn't know when she would recover from her illness, if she wanted to wait until her illness recovered, she might have to leave the Meng family alone for ten and a half months.

So Lin Rufei agreed to Fuhua's proposal, and decided to go to Meng's house to hand in the invitation today.

He rested for another half an hour, and barely had the strength to go down to the ground. Fuhua found a cloak, wrapped Lin Rufei tightly, and carefully tied Lin Rufei's waterfall-like black hair into a crown. .

Lin Rufei sat in front of the mirror with her chin propped up and was manipulated by the two maids, almost falling asleep again.

After finally finishing it, the three master and servant went out.

The sun had already set at this moment, but the city of Xinzhou was very lively.

It's a pity that Lin Rufei was dizzy and didn't have much thought of admiring the scenery. Fuhua bought a horse from a nearby post station, and he sat on the horse, and was led slowly into the city by Fuhua.

In this area, the word Meng is a common surname, and out of ten people, at least seven can be picked out with the surname Meng.

When they arrived at the gate of the Meng Mansion, Fuhua went to call the door, but the person who opened the door just opened the door, and before they could introduce themselves, they were warmly welcomed in by the gatekeeper who had prepared for a long time.

"This is Mr. Lin Rufei! The master of the family has long heard that you have arrived in Xinzhou, so he reminded the little one early." The gatekeeper was very enthusiastic, helped Lin Rufei off the horse, and called the maid, He led Lin Rufei into the main hall.

The servant girl's name is Zhuyin, she is very beautiful, and her dress is even more gorgeous than Fuhua's. Along the way, she introduced Lin Rufei's scenery in Meng's mansion with a smile, which seems to be from Meng's mansion. old man.

The styles of Meng's Mansion and Xie's Mansion are very different. They are located in the plain area and close to the big lake. The pavilions and pavilions in the mansion are a bit more beautiful. There is a stream running through the garden, and the garden has the charm of the south of the Yangtze River.When Lin Rufei asked, she learned that the hostess of the Meng Mansion was from the south of the Yangtze River. Because she missed her family, she arranged the Meng Mansion in this way.

Zhuyin probably saw that Lin Rufei's health was not in good condition, so she slowed down her walking speed very considerately, saying that the master had a banquet in the back garden, and you can see it through the corridor in front of you.

She was talking to Lin Rufei, when a small wind blew in the corridor, accompanied by the sound of fierce footsteps.Lin Rufei turned her head and saw a short-haired young man in a strong suit and carrying a long bow running quickly in front of her. A slender braid.

"Master, run slowly, don't startle the guests!" Zhuyin scolded softly, saying that she was scolding, but her tone was full of pampering.

"Hey, who is this young master, and when did he enter the mansion?" The young man called the young master by Zhuyin came to Lin Rufei in the blink of an eye. He opened a pair of shiny black eyes, like a curious little The dog said, "You are so handsome! I wonder if Miss Xu is here?"

Lin Rufei smiled and said, "Not yet, the young master plans to introduce one to me?"

"Hey, I have an unmarried older sister, she is very beautiful." The young master said with a grin, "I think you are suitable for her, but she likes weaker ones, and doesn't like those lunatics—"

"Young master, young master!" Zhuyin heard her young master talking nonsense, and immediately became anxious. This Lin family is a distinguished guest, how can they provoke them, if they change to someone with a bad temper, the young master will make him anxious. It's not easy to deal with the aftermath, and he said anxiously: "This Young Master Lin is a distinguished guest, if you continue to speak out here, be careful that Madam beats you!!"

"Tsk tsk tsk." Hearing this, the young master clicked a few times, and ran away like a gust of wind. Before leaving, he still made an appointment with Lin Rufei, saying that his sister's matter was settled like this. He immediately brought it up with his parents, and the angry Zhuyin stomped his feet.

"Mr. Lin, don't take it to heart. The young master is my wife's youngest son. He is loved the most in daily life. He has an innocent and straightforward personality. If his words are offensive." Zhuyin said, "Don't take it to heart. ah."

Lin Rufei shook his head, indicating that there was no hindrance. He had a pretty good impression of the young master. Presumably, his elder brother and second brother also wanted to spoil him like this, but they didn't succeed. This matter became their heart Knot.

There are luxuriant wisteria flowers on both sides of the corridor, and there is a clear stream running under it. Carps and shrimps playing in the stream can be seen faintly, which has a special charm.

The atmospheres of Meng Mansion and Xie Mansion are very different, one is cold and quiet, while the other is warm and lively, Meng Mansion is more like a home.

Zhuyin lifted the bamboo curtain hanging at the end of the corridor, leading Lin Rufei into another world.

In the garden, all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, and there are flowers in all seasons. Lin Rufei saw a lotus flower in full bloom on the lake, and on the tree beside the lake, there was a brilliant red plum tree, and the stamens of the two different seasons complemented each other. , very strange.

A few steps forward, I saw the family banquet set up by the Meng family. Beside the family banquet, the head of the Meng family and his family had been waiting for Lin Rufei for a long time. When they saw him coming with Zhuyin, they all stood up to greet him.

The head of the Meng family is named Meng Xiangxing. Although he is a hundred years old, his face is no different from that of a young man. It should be the result of breaking the five realms at the age of 20. Once he passes the five realms, his face will not change again, but Maintain the appearance of youth.

There were four people standing beside Meng Xiangxing, two men and two women. One of them should be his wife, and the others should be his children. One of them was the heroic young man he met in the corridor just now.

Lin Rufei was looking at them, and they were also looking at Lin Rufei. Although he had already heard about the fourth son of the Lin family, seeing him is better than seeing him once. The fourth son of the Lin family is really handsome. It made people feel a little sick, but this pale face on Lin Rufei only gave him the charm of a sickly beauty, and those black eyes, which were slightly lighter than ordinary people, were slightly curved to reveal a little With a faint smile and thick eyelashes like a black butterfly about to fly, it seems a little sick like Xizi Sheng Sanfen.

Lin Rufei has a crown of black hair, wearing a white dress made of brocade with dragon patterns, a cloak of the same color, and a belt with a nephrite cloud pattern around her waist. Although there are few decorations, she is very luxurious, and she is a man of knowledge. People can tell at a glance that their identity must be unusual.

"Young master, please come this way!" The young master of the Meng family grinned when he saw Lin Rufei, and warmly greeted Lin Rufei to sit beside him. After being stared at by his mother for several times, he refused to restrain himself until he was grabbed. Close your ears.Mrs. Meng gritted her teeth and whispered in her son's ear, "Mr. Lin is a distinguished guest. Who told you to speak up? You are always messing around. At critical times, don't be willful—"

Young Master Meng, who was grinned by his mother, still did not give up. Although he stopped talking, he still winked at Lin Rufei. Lin Rufei also had a good impression of him, smiled, and actually sat beside him.

"Mr. Lin, the dog is naughty——" Meng Xiangxing was about to persuade him, but he saw Lin Rufei waving his hand, indicating that it's okay, and he said with a smile, "Uncle and my father are family friends, so there is no need to be so polite. Your son is very interesting. I like very much."

"This..." Meng Xiangxing hesitated for a while, and his son climbed up the pole. He filled the wine glass with a smile, and drank it down to Lin Rufei, saying that he would make a toast first.

Lin Rufei said that she was sick, so she paid tea instead of wine.

With such a living treasure, the atmosphere at the dinner table was lively and harmonious. During the conversation, Lin Rufei learned that the Meng family had three sons in total, two boys and one girl, the eldest brother Meng Lanchao, the second sister Meng Youyue, and the youngest son Meng Lan. If so, it is the lively and active young master in front of him.

Knowing that Lin Rufei's physical condition is not good, the food on this table tastes very light, which is very suitable for sick people.

Although Lin Rufei had a bad appetite, she still tried her best to eat some food, which gave the Meng family enough face.

Satisfied with wine and food, Lin Rufei took out the invitation card from the Sword Club from the Xu Na Ring and gave it to Meng Xiangxing.

Meng Xiangxing took the invitation, bowed to Lin Rufei, and asked him where he planned to go next.

Lin Rufei coughed a few times in a low voice, and said that she planned to find an inn in Xinzhou City, and make plans after recovering from her illness.

When Meng Lanruo heard this, she immediately put her face in front of Lin Rufei, and said excitedly, "Since this is the case, Mr. Lin, why don't you stay in the Meng Mansion first? I can assure you that there is no inn in Xinzhou City with a better environment than the Meng Mansion." It's-"

Lin Rufei was stunned for a moment, but before she could speak, Meng Langruo started talking about the advantages of the Meng Mansion, such as soft beds, delicious food, and even the flowers blooming in the yard are more colorful than those in other places.He spoke so fast, Lin Rufei didn't even have the time to intervene, and in the end it was Mrs. Meng who gave him a thump on the head, and said angrily, "You're only talking about yourself, and you don't even look at other people's guests. His reaction——" Looking at Lin Rufei with a smile, he said, "Young Master Lin, he has always been like this, so don't take it to heart."

Lin Rufei smiled and waved her hands to indicate that nothing happened.

But Meng Langruo still didn't give up, reached out and grabbed the corner of Lin Rufei's clothes, and said shamelessly: "Mr. Lin, you are going to leave after eating this meal, and you are still staying in an inn outside. Let other people know, wouldn't you be happy?" Blame our Meng family for not treating guests well?" He muttered again, saying that it was boring to be alone, and it was a pity to let an interesting playmate finally come and let him go...

Lin Rufei couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

Meng Xiangxing smiled and said, "Why don't Mr. Lin live in my Meng's house for a while?"

Lin Rufei was worried about troubling the Meng family and wanted to refuse, but Meng Langruo almost pressed her face to his nose, looking at him pitifully with a pair of black eyes, Lin Rufei couldn't stand it, so she could only agree.This Meng Lanruosheng is full of heroism, but when she acts coquettishly, she is really powerful.

Seeing Lin Rufei's embarrassed appearance in front of Meng Langruo, the Meng family couldn't help smiling, while Meng Xiangxing ordered Zhuyin who was standing beside him to prepare a good room for Lin Rufei and his maids. guest room.

So the matter of living in Meng's house was settled like this.

With enough food and drink, it was getting late. Meng Langruo wanted to chat with Lin Rufei, but Madam Meng grabbed Lin Rufei's ear and pulled her away. Madam Meng smiled apologetically at Lin Rufei and said Mr. Lin is exhausted, take a good rest today, and talk about other things tomorrow, and you can tell Zhuyin if you have anything.

Meng Lanruo shouted to Lin Rufei at the top of her voice, saying that she would come to play with him again tomorrow.

Lin Rufei smiled and nodded.

Zhuyin then led the three of them to the prepared room. Meng's house was huge, walking through it was like walking through a maze. After turning left and right in the garden for a while, they saw a neat row of buildings .

The building was born among lush flowers and plants, and there is a small bridge and a shallow stream beside it, so the environment is very good.

Zhuyin said that this is usually the place where the young master lives, and everything is well prepared, and it was cleaned up today, so that Mr. Lin can relax and feel like he is at home.

Lin Rufei nodded in thanks, and took out some broken gold from her cuff to reward Zhuyin, but Zhuyin refused with a smile. She said that she was the big girl next to Meng Langruo, a girl like her, There are four or five more, how dare you accept things from customers.

Seeing this, Lin Rufei didn't hesitate.

After sending Lin Rufei into the house, Zhuyin withdrew, saying that she was waiting outside, and would come if she called for anything. Fuhua and Yurui also went to the rooms on both sides, and the rest of the house was left. Lin Rufei was alone.

Gu Xuandu has been missing since Lin Rufei entered the Meng family, and only then did he reappear beside Lin Rufei, took a sip from his teacup, and said, "The young master of the Meng family is quite interesting." .”

Lin Rufei raised her eyebrows: "Interesting?"

Gu Xuan nodded.

"What's interesting?" Lin Rufei asked.

"The older brothers in your family probably want to pamper you like his innocence." Gu Xuandu's slender fingers hooked the rim of the cup, "But..."

Lin Rufei raised her eyebrows: "It's nothing."

Gu Xuandu smiled and said, "But I like you too."

Lin Rufei smiled, but she was already used to this senior's flamboyance.

Because she was still ill, Lin Rufei soon became tired, and after taking another dose of medicine, she went to bed to rest.It was just before going to sleep that he vaguely smelled a strange floral fragrance, which he had never smelled before and did not know what it was. The smell was fresh and elegant, but it was not too annoying.

"What's the smell?" Lin Rufei asked sleepily.

"It's Kirin Grass." Gu Xuandu vaguely replied.

Unicorn grass?He remembered that this herb seemed to have the effect of calming the nerves... Lin Rufei let out a bewilderment, and fell into a naive and sweet dream.

Lin Rufei slept very well that night, and didn't have a single strange dream. By the early morning of the next day, his low-grade fever had subsided, and his spirit had improved a lot.

After breakfast, Lin Rufei was debating whether to take another dose of medicine, when Meng Langruo's voice came from outside the door, he rushed in regardless of Zhuyin's obstruction, and saw Lin Rufei sitting at the table While looking at the medicine and worrying, he couldn't help laughing: "Young master Lin, the weather is so good today, do you want to go out with me? A few high-quality horses have just arrived at my racecourse, they are very beautiful!"

Lin Rufei looked outside the house. Today is indeed a good day. Although it is early in the morning, the bright sun has already emerged, sprinkled in the lush garden, and coated the stamens with golden new clothes.

"Mr. Meng..." Lin Rufei just opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Meng Langruo, who grinned and said, "Mr. Lin, don't be so polite, just call me Langruo! Let me tell you, then It’s not just the horses that are beautiful on the racecourse, there are other things too…”

"What else?" Lin Rufei asked.

"You'll know when you see it! I guarantee you won't be disappointed!" Meng Lanruo patted her chest.

Lin Rufei thought for a while, and agreed. After all, Meng Langruo was so enthusiastic, it was a pity that his interest was dampened. Besides, the weather outside was not bad, so going out for a walk was not a bad thing.

As soon as he answered, Meng Lanruo grabbed his shoulders and pulled him out of the room.

The scenery of the Meng Mansion during the day and the Meng Mansion at night have their own flavors. When you look at it during the day, you can see that there are a lot of flowers everywhere, which is very lively.

The racecourse that Meng Lanruo was talking about was also in the Meng Mansion, it seemed to be a separate area, and it looked very spacious.

As soon as Lin Rufei arrived at the racecourse, she understood what Meng Langruo was talking about. On the racecourse, there were several young girls in strong outfits playing polo fiercely, with their skirts fluttering. It's really a wonderful scene.

The most eye-catching person among them is Meng Youyue, the elder sister of Meng Langruo whom I saw at the family banquet yesterday. She holds a long pole and easily steers the steed under her. look.

Meng Lanruo waved at the audience and shouted, "Sister—"

Meng Youyue turned the horse's head and galloped towards this side. When she got in front of them, she let out a long "wow" and said with a smile, "Langruo, why did you drag Mr. Lin here."

"Didn't I just watch Mr. Lin idle in the house, so I asked him to come out and look around?" Meng Langruo said, "There are only a few good horses coming to the racecourse, so I thought I would ask Mr. Lin to come and take a look." look."

"Really." Meng Youyue smiled.

The two siblings were talking, but an unharmonious voice came from the side: "Meng Langruo, I haven't seen you for a few days. When did such a handsome young master come to your family?"

Lin Rufei turned her head, but saw the owner of the voice. The man was dressed in fine clothes. Although he looked handsome, he exuded an air of arrogance. Although he smiled and looked at Lin Rufei, deep in his eyes The hidden hostility was still captured by Lin Rufei.

"None of your business." Meng Langruo yelled without hesitation, "Qi Yansheng, go away quickly, don't spoil my interest."

Qi Yansheng smiled: "Oh? Is that so? I also said that I begged a longbow made of ten-thousand-year-old ebony from the autumn mountain the day before yesterday, and I wanted to show it to you. Since you don't like it, then forget it."

"Hey—a longbow made of ten thousand years of ebony?" Meng Lanruo was immediately aroused, her eyes lit up, "Give me the palm of your hand!"

Qi Yansheng said: "It's not here, it's on the shooting range."

"Then let's go to the shooting range?" Meng Langruo's hands were itching badly, but then he remembered Lin Rufei who seemed to be unable to shoot arrows beside him, and immediately shook his head and said, "I won't go, I'm still going I'll be with Mr. Lin, and I'll ask you to have a look in a few days."

"I wonder if this Mr. Lin is...?" Qi Yansheng asked.

"Mr. Lin is the son of the Lin family in Kunlun. He happened to come to my house to give away sword stickers these few days. He is not the same as you. He is a distinguished guest!" Meng Lanruo said, "Don't say anything annoying, Mr. Lin , This is a friend I don't know very well, named Qi Yansheng, others hate him, and what he says is also annoying, you don't need to pay attention to it."

Qi Yansheng was not angry when Meng Langruo said that, instead he laughed and bowed to Lin Rufei: "I have admired the name of the Lin family in Kunlun for a long time, and seeing you today, the young master's demeanor is really impressive."

Lin Rufei returned the salute and said, "Praise."

"I wonder if my lord is interested in seeing that longbow?" Qi Yansheng smiled, "Maybe Mr. Lin doesn't know that the bows of the Meng family are really beautiful. If you have nothing to do now, why don't you let Meng Langruo show you a skill?" ?”

He was obviously smiling, and there was nothing wrong with what he said, but Lin Rufei could hear the provocation in Qi Yansheng's tone, he restrained his smile, looked over with a blank face, and said lightly: "I don't know Qi Yansheng How is your shooting skill?"

Qi Yansheng proudly said: "There is no opponent in Xinzhou."

Lin Rufei said calmly, "Then it's okay to have a look."

He wanted to know what this Qi Yansheng wanted to do.

The author has something to say: Even Gu Xuan is shameless: I know there is something special.

Lin Rufei: What?

Gu Xuandu continued to be shameless: eat to ensure that the disease will be cured.

Lin Rufei: You speak as you speak, why do you untie your belt——
