In late April, all the peonies in the Lu family garden were blooming. Zhu, the grandmother of the Duke of Chu's mansion and several wives sat in the pavilion to appreciate the flowers. Xiao was also accompanied by her. One of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was beautiful and the other was noble. They became the king of flower among the female relatives of similar ages, which attracted much attention.
Outside the pavilion, the big girls and little girls rarely come out to visit. They were as happy as birds leaving the cage, gathered together with their friends and enjoyed the flowers in groups of three or five.
Lu Jinyu was there for the hospitality guests, and Lu Huaiyu helped him. What Lu Mingyu did the main thing today was to look at his younger brother.
"Sister, I want to stink." Heng Ge'er held his sister and looked at a few peonies, suddenly raised his head and told his sister without any shame.
Lu Mingyu looked at the boy suspiciously, "Is it true or false?"
Brother Heng nodded seriously, then shaking his sister's hand dependently, "Sister will accompany me."
Children rely on others, and few who like him can resist it. Lu Mingyu touched his younger brother's head, sent the maid beside him to talk to his elder sister Lu Jinyu, and then led his younger brother to the clean room. Halfway through, Lu Mingyu lowered his head and asked his younger brother, "Can Brother Heng still bear it?"
Brother Heng looked at his sister, blinked his big eyes, suddenly grinned, threw himself on his legs, hugged his sister's thigh and acted coquettishly, "Sister, I want to go to the lake to play."
It turns out that stinking is an excuse!
My younger brother would lie at such a young age. Lu Mingyu pinched the boy's face with a tense face, pretending to be angry and said, "No, the male guests are there today. My mother said that we are not allowed to go there." After that, he led his younger brother to turn it back.
Heng Ge'er likes the most lively. He went to the lake to see which guests came to his house. When he heard that his sister refused to help, the little guy immediately stopped doing it. He pulled his sister's skirt and acted coquettishly, insisting that his sister take him there. Lu Mingyu refused to agree. Heng Ge'er looked at his sister's serious face, as if he knew that coquettishness would not work, and curled his lips and cried when he opened his mouth.
Words may be fake, but tears are real.
My younger brother is ignorant, and Lu Mingyu feels ache and feels so sad. He squats down to reason with his younger brother. Brother Heng doesn't listen, and the more he cries, the more fierce he becomes. Lu Mingyu frowned, and finally he is reluctant to let his younger brother down, so he has to say, "Brother Heng is obedient. My sister will definitely not take you there. My mother will scold me when she goes there. In this way, my sister takes you to the He Pavilion. Can we stand on it and watch secretly?"
My grandfather liked to climb high and looked far away, so he specially ordered craftsmen to build a hill about one meter high in the northwest corner of the garden, called Qiushan. Plum pine trees are planted everywhere in Qiushan Mountain, and the three-story attic on the top of the mountain is the Hanhan Pavilion. In the Hanhan Pavilion, you can overlook the entire Lujia Garden, but the distance is too far to see the people walking around inside.
Brother Heng looked at his sister with tears in his eyes, because this was different from what he asked for, and the little guy was still unwilling to do so.
Lu Mingyu wiped away the tear from the corner of his brother's eyes with a veil and threatened calmly: "Do you go? If you don't go, forget it."
"Go!" Brother Heng hugged his sister's neck and rubbed it with grievance.
Lu Mingyu laughed secretly, and his brother picked up the person and walked forward, coaxing his brother to forget the grievances just now. She had no strength. Then she let go of his brother. The brother and brother walked slowly hand in hand. A quarter of an hour later, Qiushan arrived. Lu Mingyu stood in front of the winding path, smiling and teasing his brother, "Are you going to such a high mountain? "
"Go!" Heng Ge'er said very firmly.
Lu Mingyu pursed her lips and smiled, holding her younger brother upwards. After walking a few steps, Brother Heng tilted his body towards her. He wanted his sister to hug her but was a little unwilling to admit defeat. Lu Mingyu pretended not to know. Soon, Brother Heng was so tired that he forgot the dignity of the little man, turned his head and asked his sister to hug her. His legs were short and he couldn't climb anymore.
Lu Mingyu had no intention of actually climbing up. She squatted in front of her younger brother and gasped in a big breath, "No, my sister can't climb anymore. Brother Heng, let's go back?"
Brother Heng looked at his sister blankly. He hadn't breathed before he could breathe, so why did he squat down like this?
Brother Heng was too young to see through his sister's bad thoughts, but he wanted to go to the top of the mountain to see the guests, so he still hummed and begged his sister to hug her. When he was tired of squatting, Lu Mingyu simply spread the handkerchief flat on the ground and sat there to delay with his younger brother. Anyway, she had time and was afraid that she would not be able to deal with a three-year-old child?
"Sister hug me..."
"Sister can't hold it anymore..."
The breeze with the smell of plants and trees blew from one side, blowing away the tender and cute children's words of the siblings.
Lu Mingyu was having fun teasing his younger brother. Heng Ge'er was so anxious that hugging his sister's left shoulder didn't work. Heng Ge'er decided to try it on the right. When he looked up, he saw a tall man walking down, just as far away from him and his sister. Heng Ge'er stared at the man's face curiously, as if he had seen him before, but he couldn't remember who this person was.
Facing the "birthy person", Heng Ge'er couldn't help but turn to his sister's arms and whispered: "Sister, who is he?"
Lu Mingyu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the foot of the mountain. There was no one. At this moment, footsteps finally came from behind. Lu Mingyu turned around in surprise and saw Chu Xing wearing a plain brocade robe, walking towards the siblings slowly, with cold eyes. Lu Mingyu didn't expect to meet Chu Xing here, and froze there in shock.
The nine-year-old girl was wearing her favorite pink skirt, tilted her head, revealing her delicate white face, thin eyebrows, like a crescent moon, watery eyes, and full of light. She was still a child, but she skillfully held her younger brother in her arms, cute and obedient, and very painful.
Chu Xing had just come down from Fanghe Pavilion and was almost at the foot of the mountain. He found Lu Mingyu and his brother. Because he didn't want to meet Lu Mingyu in private, Chu Xing quickly hid in Lin Hai next to the road, intending to wait for Lu Mingyu and his brother to come up and then come out. Unexpectedly, the brother and brother actually sat there, shouting you and me, and I don't know how long it will take to stay.
Chu Xing was not in a hurry, he just wanted to help. Lu Mingyu couldn't hold his younger brother when he was young, and Brother Heng insisted on going to the mountain. Since he met him, he was a relative after all, so he couldn't stand by and watch.
"Why are you here?" Chu Xing showed up out of kindness, but he seemed to have just seen Lu Mingyu and asked unexpectedly.
Lu Mingyu finally came back to her senses. She realized her current posture and hurriedly helped her brother stand up. She quietly smoothed the possible wrinkles on the skirt behind her, and said with a red face: "I, I will take Brother Heng around. I'm tired of walking and sit down and rest." As she said that, she tried hard to calmly look at the man above, "Where is the cousin's uncle?"
Chu Xing said lightly: "I'll just go there too."
Because he realized that Lu Mingyu intended to keep a distance from him and had something to ask for but did not tell him bluntly, Chu Xing gave up the idea of taking care of the siblings and brothers. While walking down, he said in a tone of instructing his younger generation: "This is a bit far from the garden. You can sit for a while and go back, don't worry your family."
"Well, I understand." Lu Mingyu lowered his eyes and sent him to see him, "My cousin walked slowly."
Chu Xing nodded and walked around Heng Ge'er.
"Uncle!" Heng Ge'er suddenly called him.
Lu Mingyu thought to himself that his younger brother was not a polite person. He was about to glar at his younger brother and refused to let him talk nonsense, but Heng Geer happily threw himself on Chu Xing's lap, hugged Chu Xing's thighs very skillfully, and raised his head to beg, "Uncle hugged me, I can't walk..." Since my sister called him uncle, then this person was also his uncle, and his uncle would definitely help him.
Brother Heng looked at his new uncle expectantly.
Chu Xing did not move and looked at Lu Mingyu.
The younger brother was in a mess, and Lu Mingyu was so embarrassed that he bent down to pull his younger brother back, but his hand touched Heng Ge'er. The boy turned behind Chu Xing and stared at his sister with caution. Lu Mingyu couldn't catch the person, so he had to bite the bullet and beg Chu Xing, "Cousin, Heng Ge'er is ignorant, don't spoil him."
Chu Xing was silent for a moment, lowered his head and coaxed Heng Ge'er: "Heng Ge'er listened to his sister."
"I don't, my uncle hug you!" Brother Heng was anxious, his chubby little hand hugged his new uncle tightly, and rubbed him around coquettishly, "Uncle hug you, my sister can't hug you..."
When Chu Xing heard this, he suddenly realized. If his younger brother and sister didn't ask for help, he might not want to keep a distance from him, because she was still young and would not misunderstand anything if someone caught them together. Instead, he would be more likely to not bother him. If this is true, he would be polite to me. How could he really leave when his younger brother and sister need help?
After thinking it through, Chu Xing did not look at Lu Mingyu, bent down and lifted Brother Heng up, and walked down silently.
"Going up the mountain!" Heng Ge'er corrected it crisply. As the person was tall, the little guy looked around excitedly.
Chu Xing turned around and asked the little girl next to him with a complicated look on her face, "You want to go up the mountain?"
Before Lu Mingyu could answer, Heng Ge'er nodded seriously and nodded heavily.
Now that things have come to this point, what else can Lu Mingyu say? Last month, Chu Xing was indulging Heng Ge'er at his grandfather's house. As long as Heng Ge'er insisted, Chu Xing would definitely be accustomed to him. So instead of staying here and wasting time politely, it would be better to let Chu Xing carry his younger brother up. When he arrived at the top of the mountain, everyone divided his troops and worked together.
"Uncle cousin, I'm going to trouble you again." Lu Mingyu said ashamed, lowering his head.
"It's not worth mentioning." Chu Xing looked at her, and walked up with his feet.
Lu Mingyu waited for a while before slowly following up and keeping a distance of six or seven steps from Chu Xing.
The mountain breeze was blowing, and Lu Mingyu smelled the faint fragrance of Chu Xing's body, which was like cedars, clear and quiet, like his people.
Lu Mingyu couldn't help but look up, but she met her brother's naughty face, and she grinned at her like she was waiting for her, and was so proud that she was so arrogant.
Lu Mingyu was so angry that he gritted his teeth and made a move to pinch his face at his younger brother.
Brother Heng immediately turned back.
Chu Xing looked ahead and imagined Lu Mingyu's threatening brother, and his lips couldn't help but be upturned. His younger brother and sister looked so cute and innocent, but they were actually quite capable. Lu Zhan and his wife were harmonious, Lu Rong's eyes were bright again, Xiao was safe and sound, and even the war in Liaodong that year was the shadow of his younger brother and sister taking action.
By the way, Chu Xing wanted to...reward the little girl behind him who tried hard to protect his family and was righteous.
"Miss Four, listen to Lingzun, will you go to Yueyang at the end of the month?" Chu Xingtou asked without looking back.
Lu Mingyu looked at his back in surprise and replied blankly: "Yes."
