The place where Wang Xuanji lives is in a courtyard to the east. After entering the courtyard, walk in and follow a corridor to the end. There is a small courtyard almost surrounded by houses on all sides. This is where Wang Xuanji lives. The small courtyard
It is a bit like a separate courtyard, but because there is no wall partition and no gatehouse to block it, it actually belongs to the same courtyard as the previous place.
But there is a small back door on Wang Xuanji's side, which can be bolted from the inside. The back door is still in the Wang family's mansion, not far from the gatehouse of Lingjun's place. Wang Xuanji always went to Lingjun's place in the past, because it was very convenient and there was no need to go there.
Detour from the front gatehouse.
It gets quiet after nightfall. It rained all day today, and there was not even the sound of the silk and bamboo orchestra at night.
Two little maids carried the hot water into the house, walked around the screen with embroidered water roses, and poured the water into the large wooden bucket. They ran several times before filling it with enough water. The maids were young and exhausted.
He sat on the hut outside the screen and rested.
Wang Xuanji knew in her heart that she wanted to take a bath, but when she got into the water, she found that she was still wearing her clothes, so she had to take off the wet clothes and put them next to the barrel. She still looks a little confused.
The light of the oil lamp in front of the screen was motionless, and there seemed to be no sound at all in the room. Wang Xuanji just came back to her senses, and soon she seemed not to know what to do. She stayed in the steaming white water, just hugging her with her arms.
She was scrubbing slowly and unconsciously, and her water-stained skin was very cunning, escaping under her hands. After a while, her hands felt tingling, and she finally woke up slightly from her daze, and stopped scrubbing the same area.
skin, otherwise it will have to be washed off.
"I don't even know what I saw." Wang Xuanji whispered to herself, shrank into the water, and hid her whole head in the warm water. The suffocating feeling of being unable to breathe underwater was dispersed.
She couldn't hold her breath anymore, so she came out of the water, took a big breath of air, and gently spit out the bath water from her mouth.
At this time, the maid in front of the screen said: "I didn't hear what the lady said clearly. Do you want to get something?"
Wang Xuanji suddenly turned her head and said, "No need to take it."
The maid's voice said: "Here."
Someone was talking to Wang Xuanji, and she felt like she was waking up from a dream, but she still saw Lingjun's face in front of her, and her look would pop up from time to time. Wang Xuanji slowly recalled it, and seemed to have guessed what Lingjun meant.
, it was probably the teapots and cups that day that caused Lingjun to misunderstand, and he was unwilling to lag behind others? Otherwise, there was no need for Lingjun to do that. In the afternoon, Wang Xuanji got close to Qin Liang first, but she did not take the risk, and let Lingjun do it at the last moment.
Jun gave me the burden, but she wasn't afraid anyway. The second time was that the two of them got close, so it would be unnecessary for Jun to do that again, so she had nothing to worry about.
Xuanji has known Lingjun since she was a child. Lingjun is always very polite and behaves in everything he does. Sometimes Wang Xuanji will say vulgar words, but she has always been elegant and dignified. Could it be that she has always misjudged the person?
But Wang Xuanji thought about it carefully for a while, and Lingjun seemed to be reluctant, and he hesitated before the accident happened.
Wang Xuanji didn't know how long she had been soaking in the water. She didn't come back to her senses until her skin felt a little uncomfortable, so she called the maid outside the screen to bring her a cloth.
Wang Xuanji didn't go to the courtyard at the back for several days. She didn't know what to say when facing Lingjun. Qin Liang and Lingjun stayed in the palace for several days and never left.
However, there will always be a time when a family must meet. It was the fifth day of rest. Wang Gongyuan got up and held a family banquet in the front hall. Wang Xuanji and the Bai family were both going to attend. Lingjun and his wife were still at the house.
, naturally will not be absent.
The men and women of the family sat on both sides of the hall, and in the middle of the hall were the performers. The atmosphere in the hall was very relaxed and joyful. Today, the performers did not sing or dance, but performed a variety of operas. Their movements were in harmony with the performance.
The dialogues were very funny, and from time to time it made someone laugh "haha".
Wang Xuanji didn't pay much attention to the program. She couldn't help but look at Lingjun next to her. She originally thought that she was very good at concealing her emotions, such as the self-created "mind emptying technique", but today Wang Xuanji discovered that Lingjun
Don't try to give in too much.
Your Majesty's sitting posture is very dignified, and his appearance is flawless. He can still enjoy the performance and watch the performance as if nothing happened. From time to time, he raises his wide sleeves to gently cover the lower half of his face and laughs while watching the actor's performance. Wang Xuanji pays attention to observing your Majesty and feels that it is interesting.
There seems to be a subtle change in Jun's expression and temperament... His behavior is still smooth, but he seems to be less meticulous than before, and he feels a little more lazy with his steady exertion.
As soon as Wang Xuanji saw Lingjun, she couldn't control her thoughts. She couldn't get rid of her face when she thought of it.
Therefore, Wang Xuanji might be seen as a little uneasy. Fortunately, she was mainly paying attention to Lingjun, not Qin Liang opposite him, so there was no big problem. Everyone knows that the two of them were very close in the past, and they were very close to each other.
It's normal to have a variety of emotions.
Mrs. Xue is also looking at Lingjun from time to time. There is a smile on her face obviously, and she may be very happy to see the changes in her daughter. Mrs. Xue is not like Wang Xuanji's mother.
Your Majesty's eyes are mostly on the performers, but she is a very attentive person, and she must have noticed that Wang Xuanji is looking at her from time to time.
Sure enough, Ling Jun turned around with a smile and looked at Xuan Ji unabashedly. She held the wine glass gently with one hand and gently held the sleeve of her robe with the other hand, then toasted to Xuan Ji. Her movements were very elegant and correct. Xuan Ji also
He hurriedly picked up the cup and the two drank together. Lingjun took a big sip of the wine, then glanced at Xuanji specifically. The wine stopped in his mouth for a moment, and then he made clear and subtle swallowing movements.
Wang Xuanji immediately averted her eyes and pretended to enjoy the performance in the middle of the hall. She heard the actors talking in ups and downs, but had no idea what they were talking about.
After a while, Xuanji turned to look at Lingjun again, and saw that her face was pure and beautiful, well-proportioned and dignified, and her skin was very fair, as if she had an aura that was not stained by the world. Xuanji felt for a moment that she had just done it before.
A dream.
After the luncheon, as soon as Wang Xuanji returned to the courtyard, her mother Bai came. When Bai entered the room, she said: "Your father has been in Huainan all year round and ignored you. I should bring a message to your father..."
"
Wang Xuanji suddenly said: "How about we tell my father and elder brother the whole story."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Madam Bai looked angry and raised her hands, but she saw Wang Xuanji's serious look, showing no signs of retreating. Madam Bai slowly put her hands down, "You're threatening me instead?
Who gave you the courage?"
Wang Xuanji said seriously: "We don't want to threaten my mother, we really should do this."
Bai was so angry that he sneered a few times, but was speechless for a moment.
