The Lady of the Farm in the Red Mansion

When she woke up the next day, Xiuyan found herself sleeping on the bed with all her clothes on, while Li Mu was sitting on the bamboo couch by the windowsill, with his arms propped up on the couch, playing with a bamboo dragonfly in his hand. His neck was very long, and his hair was on one side. , the morning light shone on his snow-white neck, adding a layer of brilliance.

Xiuyan rubbed her eyes, smacked her lips, and thought, Brother Mu, how can you look so good-looking!

Seeing that Xiuyan woke up, Li Mu held a bamboo dragonfly and asked softly, "You made this?"

"En!" Xiuyan nodded, her voice was barely audible.

"It's beautiful and delicate, it's nice to give it to me!"

Xiuyan didn't expect that Brother Mu would praise her, and exclaimed excitedly: "Of course! You want to take everything!" Xiuyan forgot to look when she was happy, waving her arms.

Li Mu stared at her blankly, and saw that she was wearing a moon-white tulle with a collar, and a low-necked long gown with light snow and green prints and goose yellow flowers in the middle. White tulle, and a red tulle gown with a layer of velvet coiled flowers on the outside, with a cloud bun and velvet flowers on the hairpin.It's just that after sleeping all night, the pile of clouds is a little crooked, showing a bit of lazy posture, which has a unique flavor.It looked like she had put on her makeup carefully.

He smiled at her, then stood up and said, "I still have some things to do in my house, so I'm leaving first!"

He got up and walked out, Xiuyan grabbed the corner of his sleeve, the persimmon pattern embroidered with gold and silver two-color silk thread on the sleeve was a little bit sticky.

"What's the matter?" He didn't turn around, let alone turn around, his voice was so gentle that it melted into boiling water.

, Xiuyan pursed her upper lip, swallowed the words, she was afraid to ask him that question, she was afraid that the answer she got would break her last will, she stroked the persimmon pattern on his sleeve, wanting to ask I don't want to ask.

"Okay, don't be childish!" He gently pulled off his robe, and when the pattern embroidered with gold and silver thread ran across her fingertips, it hurt.

When the last hem of his robe flashed across the threshold, she mustered up the courage to ask: "Brother Mu, you won't marry Princess Pingting, right?" She bit her lip, waiting for his answer.

And he just stood there in a daze, neither turning around, let alone looking back, the wind was blowing his hair, showing a trace of depression.

As time went by, her heart became heavier and heavier. The weather was originally very warm, but why was the tip of her heart trembling, tears were about to fall, she stubbornly raised her head.

He turned his head suddenly, and she was afraid that she would see him, so she quickly turned her face to one side, biting her lip to keep the tears from falling.

When he saw her crying, his heart was troubled again, he turned his head, his right hand pressed heavily on his chest, he closed his eyes and panted, his long eyelashes made his fair face extremely handsome, and his thin lips were pursed into a line Lines, gradually printed bloodstains.

Seeing that his thin back was trembling slightly, Xiuyan frowned and asked softly, "Brother Mu, what's wrong with you?" She tilted her head, and slowly moved forward, the long cloak with flowers on the ground Thin Susuu voice.

Sensing her approaching, he quickly wiped off the blood stains on his lips with the back of his hand, pursed his lips, and returned to normal.

"Brother Mu, what are you doing?"

"nothing?"

"Let me see your hands!" Xiuyan's scalloped eyelashes fluttered in doubt.

Li Mu hid his right hand behind his back, the moment Xiuyan grabbed his hand, he put it on her shoulder first, grabbed her shoulder with both hands and said softly: "Are you satisfied with this house?"

Xiuyan knew that he wanted to change the subject on purpose, she didn't answer, but still stubbornly tried to break his hand on her shoulder, her body trembling but she couldn't break it off.

He used a little more strength in his hands, and continued: "How about I give this house to you!"

"Give it to me?" Xiuyan stopped swaying, her brows were brought together in the center, she wasn't surprised, let alone happy, she was just wondering what brother Mu was planning.

Li Mu pursed his lips and smiled, gently stroked her gathered brows with his fingers and said, "I recognize you as my younger sister, this house is my gift to you!"

His words were originally so gentle, but when Xiuyan heard them, they hit her head like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, her head was buzzing, but the strength in her hands pushed him away. She staggered back, leaned on the chair and sat down, tilted her head, smiled wryly twice, and murmured: "Sister, he actually wants to recognize me as his sister and give me such a big house!" She Looking up at this Nuoda house, I find it ridiculous.

This was her brother Mu, whom she had liked since she was a child, so in his heart, did she come for his money?

Xiuyan raised her face stubbornly, her eyes were red, and asked, "Brother Mu, is that how you miss me?"

Li Mu frowned, not knowing what she was going to say.

"Although I'm poor, I still have backbone! Since you don't want me, I'll leave!" She turned around, opened the closet to tidy up her things, and suddenly thought that these clothes were bought with his money, she was speechless. Laughing, she pulled the hem of her skirt and laughed at herself, "I forgot, I have nothing to pack at all, and even these clothes on me belong to you, Brother Mu!" Her voice was a bit weird, trembling in a hoarse voice, There is also a little sadness.

"Xiuyan," he wanted to comfort her.

Xiuyan stood on tiptoe, put her fingers on his thin lips, and forced herself to smile: "Brother Mu, don't say any more, can you leave me with the last bit of dignity?" In the ear, it seems to be discussing, and it seems to be whispering.

Her weeping smile is like the rose with dewdrops in the morning, with a hint of coolness in the fragrance, soaking into people's hearts.

She turned around, raised her sleeves, and galloped out with light footsteps, with absolute determination, as gorgeous as manjusawa.

He reached out to grab her sleeve, but the redness slipped away from his fingertips like a flow of color.

He knew that she would never come back after she left, so he blurted out in a hurry: "How about being my concubine?"

Xiuyan's galloping footsteps stopped, the dancing sleeve corners and gauze hem also fell down slowly, her hair also drooped down slightly, and the whole person seemed to have calmed down.

Li Mu thought she would agree, so he repeated: "Stay here and be my concubine!" There was a rare hint of willingness in the gentleness.

Xiuyan stood there in a daze, like a blooming manjusawa between heaven and earth.

"There is no other way!" There was a hint of hoarseness in his usual gentle voice, which made people feel distressed.

Xiuyan turned around slowly, with a clear face, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, like a blooming rose.

Seeing her smile, Li Mu exhaled lightly, and the stone that had been stuck in his heart disappeared quietly.

"Brother Mu!" She called out so crisply and peacefully.

"Yeah!" He deserved that tenderness.

"How can you win fish and bear's paws!" As if the old master was teaching students, her voice was surprisingly gentle, and it was the same as his usual tone.

He didn't expect her to react like this, he just felt his heart was hit hard by something, his iceberg face was instantly shattered, his lips became whiter and whiter, but he still stood motionless between the sky and the earth.

"Brother Mu, take care!" Xiuyan gave him one last gentle smile, opened her arms, and flew out like a phoenix.

"Where are you going?" He chased after him, saw her red clothes drifting into a door, walked over and looked up, there was the word Xue Fu written on it, he thought, forget it, give her some time to let her go. Let her calm down, so she returned to the private house.

Subconsciously, Xiuyan ran to the backyard of Xue's mansion, she beat on the door vigorously, tears streaming out.

Baochai just woke up, when she heard the knock on the door, she walked lazily towards the back door, and as soon as she opened the door, a red figure rushed towards her, sobbing in her arms: "Sister, He still wants to marry her, what should I do?"

Baochai didn't understand for a while, but when she saw Xiuyan crying hard, she kept stroking her back and comforting her, "It's okay, is there a sister?"

After a while, the sobbing gradually subsided, Baochai helped Xiuyan to the porch and sat down, took her hand and asked cautiously: "What's going on? What do you mean he still wants to marry her?" He told Baochai about it.

Baochai asked suspiciously: "It's a common problem for men to enjoy the blessings of the same people. I thought my sister had already seen it?"

Xiuyan caressed the red lacquered pillars on the porch, looked at the Chiwei in full bloom, and frowned slightly: "I don't know what's wrong with me, but when I heard Brother Mu say that he wants to take me as a concubine, I didn't Feeling a little bit happy, but I feel that my heart is tangled together with R, it hurts, it hurts!" She put her hand holding the silk on her chest, and tangled up the clothes there, the corset was wrinkled, and her face was also wrinkled. A lump, as if the pain revived in an instant.

"Sister, you are well-informed, what do you think is wrong with me? Is it because I am too narrow-minded? Or do I not love him at all?" Xiuyan's breathing was a bit heavy, and the words she said were also full of love. vibrato.

Baochai let out a long breath, and lamented, "Sister, it's not that you don't love him, but you love him too deeply! Don't let you be his concubine, even if he marries you as his wife in the future, I'm afraid Even you can't tolerate him having other concubines! Of course, with my sister's kindness, you won't hurt his concubine's room, and with your sister's pride, you won't be jealous, you will only slowly grow up in self-pity The description is exhausted, and finally the fragrance disappears!"

Baochai's words hit the nail on the head, Xiuyan's legs trembled, and she swayed down the red lacquered pillar. It turns out that loving someone too deeply is so terrifying!

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Baochai stepped forward to help her up.

Xiuyan grabbed her arm and sat down again, took Baochai's hand, and begged eagerly: "Sister, I have nowhere to go, I beg you to take me in!"

"Silly girl, we are good sisters, Xue Mansion is your home, you can live as long as you want!" Baochai comforted her, stroking her hair.

Xiuyan tilted her head in Baochai's arms.
