"I have never seen this kind of brushwork before!" The maid squatted beside the young lady, holding her chin in her hand, with little stars in her eyes, and murmured: "It would be great if someone could draw something like this for me!"

The woman in the white dress smiled softly, stretched out her white jade-like fingers, flicked the maid's forehead, and joked with a smile: "Xiaoyue has grown up, and she feels like spring! Haha!"

The maid's face turned red and she pouted in protest: "Miss...!"

The woman in the white dress stretched out her hands that were as strong as frost and snow, gently rubbed the maid's head, and said softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely find a good family for you, Xiaoyue!"

The maid pouted, blushed and shook her head, waving her pigtails back and forth: "No, if Xiaoyue doesn't get married, Xiaoyue will stay with the lady!"

"Again, miss, the eldest young master of the Su family is really nice to you!" The maid remembered that this afternoon, the eldest young master of the Su family spent a lot of money on a flower boat to let his young lady play a song.

He was heroic and his eyes were full of twinkling little stars. He chirped and said: "Master Su has a good family background, is tall, handsome, and talented..."

The maid squatted there cutely counting the benefits of Mr. Su's son with her fingers. As she was talking, she found that the young lady seemed to be distracted and did not listen to her at all. The maid coquettishly shook the young lady's arm: "Miss..."

The woman in the white dress smiled softly and teased the maid: "I think you have fallen in love with the boy next to Mr. Su!"

The maid immediately blushed, lowered her head and hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

The woman in the white dress looked at the maid's shy look, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes. She sighed in her heart and said: "Xiaoyue, Su Wenzheng is a man of talent and learning, but his appearance is also good.

Handsome. However, this person has bad character and is definitely not a destined person!"

"Why, why!" The maid was very confused. She looked up at the young lady with a faint smile on her face and asked in confusion.

The woman in the white dress shook her head and said nothing. She stood up with her hands on her knees. She raised her head, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and sighed softly.

In the blurred night sky, the crescent moon is like a dignified swan, swimming leisurely in the night ocean. The bright moon sheds thousands of silver rays, covering the foggy Qinhuai River with a thin layer of silver light.

yarn.

The woman stood there, her long white dress exuding a faint fluorescent light under the moonlight. Her jade-like cheeks carried a thin hint of coldness.

She looked at the crescent moon in the sky. After a long time, the look in her beautiful eyes was erratic. Inadvertently, her small jade hands had been clenched into fists. She looked at the vast and deep night sky, her beautiful eyes were as frosty as lightning, and she murmured word by word.

murmured.

Su Wenzheng, son of Su Guangyi, ha!

When Lu Heng returned home, it was already evening.

Chaimen under the setting sun is covered with warm sunset glow. It looks very warm.

When you walk into the courtyard, you are greeted by a burst of fragrance. In the courtyard, the seeds planted by Liu Qingqing have already grown and bloomed. The colorful flowers bring a strong sense of spring to this small courtyard.

After walking through the gravel path, Lu Heng gently opened the door.

"Uncle is back!" In the room, Liu Qingqing, wearing a floral apron around her waist, was busy in front of the stove. When she saw Lu Heng pushing the door open, she smiled brightly.

Lu Heng took off his long gown and put it aside. Then he squatted in front of the stove and started to help light the fire: "I finished the job early today, so I went out for a walk in the afternoon. I came back as the night was approaching!"

"Uncle, hurry up, I'd better do it as a concubine!" Liu Qingqing, who had said this several times, reminded him in a dumbfounded voice when she saw Lu Heng squatting down to light the fire again.

Lu Heng smiled, but still did not get up. Instead, he pulled up the small bench, sat down, and started to light the fire in a formal manner: "They say that Bai Wuyi is a scholar. Now, he can't even do this kind of work.

Then I will be useless! Sister-in-law, why don’t you let me become a useless person!"

"But, but!" Liu Qingqing stood in front of the stove at a loss, wiping her little hands on her apron, not knowing what to say.

"Hey, hey, the water is boiling!" Lu Heng opened the pot, took a look, and reminded him hastily.

Seeing that the water was boiling, Liu Qingqing also threw aside the reminder to Lu Heng that Junzi was far away from the cook, and hurriedly ran to the outer hall.

Not long after, Liu Qingqing came back with some dumplings.

Seeing Lu Heng's surprised look, Liu Qingqing smiled lightly, with a hint of anger in her tone: "Today is my birthday!"

Only then did Lu Heng remember. Seeing the flash of anger and resentment in Liu Qingqing's beautiful eyes, he hurriedly patted his head and apologized with a wry smile: "Look at my poor memory, I almost forgot!"

A few days ago, Liu Qingqing told herself this. Although the other party seemed to have mentioned it to her accidentally, when she saw her saying these words, there was a hint of hope in her eyes.

, probably hoping that he would say something.

Lu Heng pulled the wind box twice with a roar, and while filling the stove with firewood, he raised his head and said to Liu Qingqing: "I will give you a birthday gift later, uh, it is a birthday gift!"

Liu Qingqing seemed to be in a good mood today. Seeing Lu Heng's mysterious look, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, "I'm waiting for uncle's gift!"

Lu Heng smiled and nodded, and said mysteriously: "Then just take a look!"

It seems that I have prepared something years ago, but never had the chance to give it away. Today is a good opportunity.

The lights were like beans, and they were adjusted slightly. The light in the room was also bright and dark. The shadows of the two people were reflected on the somewhat worn wall, which was very warm.

When the dumplings were picked up and placed on the table, Lu Heng washed his hands and walked out.

In Liu Qingqing's suspicious look, she turned back after a while. However, her hand was still empty.

Under the light, Liu Qingqing glanced at Lu Heng with empty hands, feeling a little disappointed.

While eating, Liu Qingqing lowered her head and took small bites of the dumplings without saying a word. The light of the dancing oil lamp shone on her face, making the faint look of despair appear particularly clear.

Lu Heng sat opposite, watching Liu Qingqing lower her head and eating without saying a word. Feeling amused, she reached into her pocket and took out something.

He coughed and shook himself a few times in front of Liu Qingqing under the dim light.

"Uncle, stop making trouble and eat quickly... Hey, what is this?" Liu Qingqing, who felt uncomfortable, raised her head and frowned slightly. When she was about to say something to Lu Heng, she suddenly saw the hand in Lu Heng's hand.

Just a gold hairpin.

At this time, the gem pendant at the end of the golden hairpin shimmered in the dim light, reflecting dazzling light.

"Sister-in-law Qingqing, happy birthday!" Lu Heng said softly with a faint smile on his face, looking at her moist eyes.

This was also the first time that Lu Heng called the other party by her first name. However, in order to avoid being too ambiguous and spoiling the atmosphere, he thought about it for a while and added the word sister-in-law at the end.

The red gemstone pendant was swaying gently. The dim light reflected the dazzling light under the refraction of the red gemstone. At this moment, looking at the constantly swaying pendant in front of her, Liu Qingqing felt warm in her heart.

He really remembers it!
