Strange Tale of Qingluan

Chapter 97 Chapter 97

As soon as Tiansun Qingming's voice fell, no one spoke again, and the situation suddenly turned into a stalemate. Tiansun Qingming refused to speak again, and Su Zhongming and the others had nothing to say. They looked at each other, secretly embarrassment.

"Then... we all know each other well, why don't you play the song again now?" The person who broke the silence among the few people was precisely Wu Yan. This young boy seemed to like Tiansun Qingming very much. Using the erhu to play the piece, I begged him to play it again, but Tiansun Qingming refused.

Tiansun Qingming said flatly: "No, I'm tired, I'll stop here for today, as for the next time...it depends on my mood, you won't make things difficult for others, right?" Wu Yan was stunned for a moment, "Do things difficult for others, me? Tiansun Qingming nodded slightly, "Yes. Because I am in your house now, you are the little master, and I am the guest."

Wu Yan reacted, and couldn't help but smiled and replied: "That's true, I can indeed force others to do what's difficult for me," and crossed his arms again, jokingly, "If you don't do what I ask, if you want to leave Yangui Island or I want to have a meal on Yangui Island, as long as I get in the way, you will suffer! But... I see that you saved my life, so of course I won’t do that.”

Tiansun Qingming took a look at Su Zhongming and said, "Look, you and I have been talking to each other from the beginning to the end, making everyone else stupefied." Before Wu Yan could answer, Su Zhongming opened his lips first: "If that's the case, then we will Don't bother me any more, Mr. Qingming, please." She bowed her hands to him, then turned around and led everyone out of the yard.

"My mother asked me to take them out for a stroll. My mother's order must not be disobeyed. I'll leave first. I'll come and talk to you when I'm free later." Wu Yan said, turning around too.Tiansun Qingming thought for a while, and blurted out: "I am the distinguished guest who came to Yangui Island first, so I should be the one to entertain you, right? If you want to talk to me, you don't have to wait. I'm afraid you will come back next time When you meet me, you are in a bad mood."

Wu Yan turned around, hesitantly, "But... I'm afraid my mother will scold them if I don't treat them well!" Tiansun Qingming smiled slightly, "Why worry? Why don't you ask the servants at home to show them around? Are you ready?"

After thinking about it, the little boy thought it was feasible. He stepped out of the yard and took a look. He found an old servant sweeping the floor, so he called him to his side to give orders, and then apologized to Su Zhongming, "I'm really sorry. My benefactor couldn't resist his kindness, so I had to be wronged." You guys, my servants are taking you around."

"It doesn't matter, it's the same whoever stays with you." Su Zhongming didn't mind at all, and after saying that, he left with the old servant along with the others.Wu Yan watched them leave, relaxed, turned around, and walked back to the yard, Tiansun Qingming stood there waiting with the erhu, and then invited him to the house, Wu Yan didn't think much, and happily followed into the house.

Su Zhongming just followed the old servant of Yangui Island to a small path in the garden, and began to tear away the pretense of calm just now, stopped walking, and rubbed the two dials together, but he still felt a lingering feeling in his heart. The chill is hard to shake off in a short time.Yan Ying was the first to notice his strange behavior, she was slightly surprised and said, "My lord, what's wrong?"

"Sun Qingming... this person makes me feel chills from top to bottom. I don't know why." Su Zhongming replied.Yan Ying raised her lips slightly, and was taken aback for a moment.When the other partners heard the words, they just looked at each other in blank dismay and didn't speak.After a while, Yan Ying comforted him: "We don't know him before, the lord is probably overwhelmed. If it's cold today, it must be because we don't have enough clothes."

"In the first lunar month, Yangui Island is colder than the mainland. Young people, if they don't have the habit of getting up early to practice, will be very vulnerable to the cold." The old servant suddenly interrupted, walking slowly, leading Follow them forward.Su Zhongming didn't think about it any more, and just followed along.

After wandering around for two hours, the crowd returned to the lobby where visitors were entertained. Just as they entered, they saw Murong Qinxue and Murong Qinmei still staying there. Qin Mei turned her head and saw them coming back, walked up to greet them with a smile, and said with concern: "Why did you come back so soon? Is Yangui Island fun?"

The little devil Yitian was exhausted. Hearing this, he couldn't help rolling his eyes, and complained in a low voice: "After walking for two hours and walking so much, I haven't rested. I'm about to have leg cramps and I don't like it." Hurry..." Murong Qinmei didn't hear these words, neither did Su Zhongming and others, only A Lintian who was standing beside Yitian heard it, she was stunned, and smiled at him again.Yitian didn't know what she meant by her smile, turned his face away, and said unhappily: "What's so funny, hum..."

Su Zhongming only answered Murong Qinmei's question, "Well! I didn't expect that there are so many interesting places in Yangui Island. I wanted to see the wintersweet planted by Mrs. Zun, but I couldn't move anymore." Murong Qinmeilang smiled After a few times, he said: "There is still a chance in the future, don't rush today!"

Su Zhongming deliberately looked at Murong Zhuxue again, feeling slightly worried in his heart, "Senior..." Murong Qinmei still didn't care, "It's just because of Wen Qian's marriage, it's no big deal. Mr. Su, since you like Yangui Island so much , Why don't you just take this place as your home? Ah? Hahaha..."

Although he didn't say it clearly, Su Zhongming still knew the original meaning hidden in the words. He opened his mouth to speak, but before the voice could come out of his throat, he was abruptly taken a step ahead by a sudden voice.

"Fourth brother! Didn't I make it clear enough? Don't miss out on Wen Qian's marriage! Who she should marry is up to me! You have to be clear, she is my daughter!"

Su Zhongming's heart trembled slightly, staring at Murong Qinxue's angry face, he dared not speak for a while.Murong Qinmei turned her head back, looked at his angry and firm eyes, was silent for a long time, finally sighed, as if to admit defeat, "It's not easy to see my niece, the head of the family is naturally thinking of her, but since this marriage cannot No matter how hard it is, I won't insist on anything, third brother, you are right, she is your daughter, so it should be up to you to decide, but... I will ask Mr. Su clearly."

He turned to Su Zhongming again, and asked, "You really don't regret it? You won't object when Wen Qian marries into someone else's family?" Su Zhongming simply replied, "Why? It's too late for me to be happy! All this time, I only thought of her It's my younger sister, if she marries someone else, no matter who it is, I will celebrate her and give her a gift."

Wen Qian happened to come back with the fourth lady, and stood outside the threshold. When she heard his heartfelt truth, she suddenly became sad, her eyes were moist, and she ran out without the fourth lady.Seeing this, the fourth lady yelled, "Wen Qian! Come back! What's the matter!" Everyone immediately turned their heads, but only saw the fourth lady standing outside the door, and Wen Qian only saw her back.

"Wen Qian, hello, Wen Qian!" Yang Bin chased him out without even thinking about it. Seeing the situation, Ye Shuangshuang also wanted to catch up to check the situation, but was immediately stopped by Su Zhongming, "Shuang Shuang, don't go! Let Yang Bin go after him." Good!" Ye Shuangshuang turned her head and hesitated, Su Zhongming shook her head at her, she had no choice but to obey his wishes and give up chasing.

Seeing that it was getting late, Murong Qinmei arranged a residence for them, and when they arrived at the residence, they went to their own rooms.Su Zhongming picked a good wing room, and when he opened the window on the east side, he could see a tall kapok tree, but it was a pity that it was cold winter, and the kapok tree's branches were all bare, without flowers and leaves.

After a while, there was a clear knock on the door. Su Zhongming turned and left from the east window, opened the half-open door, and saw that it was the fourth lady standing outside holding a teapot.The fourth lady said with a smile: "The chime mouth picked yesterday has dried up, and now it has been brewed into Qingkou tea. I specially sent it here for you to taste."

"It's so kind, the fourth lady can ask someone to send it over, why do you have to send it over in person?" Su Zhongming replied politely, without any intention of refusing, and happily invited her into the house.

"Is Mr. Su satisfied with this place?" The fourth lady entered the room, put the teapot on the table, and asked casually.Su Zhongming nodded, and replied politely: "Well, it's very quiet and elegant. I really care about being in charge." Then he took a look at the teapot and found it was a purple clay pot. Since it is scented tea, why not use an ordinary teapot?

The fourth lady straightened the purple sand cup upside down on the alchemy plate, poured hot tea into it carefully, and said casually: "I heard that Mr. Su has been to Liguo before and met Prince Zi there?" Su Zhongming slightly Surprised, "How did the fourth lady know the places I have traveled to?"

"I heard from Wen Qian, and you complained to me that you didn't take her there." The Fourth Madam replied calmly, picked up the cup and handed it to Su Zhongming.Glancing at it, Su Zhongming hesitated a little, but he was afraid of being rude, so he took it, carefully finished drinking, and walked to the table to put down the cup gently.

He stared at the teapot again, and said bluntly: "It seems that the fourth lady likes to make tea in a purple sand pot, no matter what kind of tea is made." The fourth lady turned her head and replied politely: "What does Mr. Su say Su Zhongming explained: "It is natural to use a purple clay pot to cook tea like Junshan Silver Needle, Biluochun Yulu, but this Qingkou tea is scented tea, so it is absolutely necessary to use a purple clay pot."

The fourth lady smiled, and solved his doubts after a while, "It seems that Mr. Su is also a person who understands tea. To be honest, Mr. Su, this has something to do with my surname. My surname is Zi."

Su Zhongming was very surprised when he heard this, and blurted out: "My surname is Zi? It turns out that the fourth lady is also surnamed Zi. When I met Prince Li Guozi, I thought that his family was the only one with the surname Zi. It turns out that there are also people on Yangui Island. Surname Zi."

The fourth lady sighed softly, sat down at the table, and said: "I used to have two younger sisters, one married into the court and was the king's favorite concubine, and the other died early. I was the only one who experienced wind and rain. After the wind and rain, I found a happy life here, husband and son..." His eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at the person in front of him.

Su Zhongming poured a cup of tea by himself, but he didn't drink it yet. Hearing what she said, he immediately felt very familiar. He slowly recalled while raising his right hand holding the teacup. Just as he was about to take a sip of scented tea, he suddenly recalled What happened, he was taken aback for a moment, but before he could ask, he heard the fourth lady's words that shocked him.

The fourth lady's tone suddenly became cool, like a flower scripture with thorns, "I have offended others, and I have always been most afraid of meeting their relatives! Isn't Mr. Su afraid that I will poison this tea?" The cup also fell to the ground, and the splashed tea scalded the back of his hands and even scratched a part of his clothes.

Su Zhongming's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it, "You are... you are the eldest daughter of Zi Qixiang?! How could..." The fourth lady's face was calm, still gentle and elegant, without any evil spirit, she nodded and answered Said: "Yes, I am the eldest daughter of Prince Li Guozi who has a grudge with you, the eldest daughter who survived all the humiliation!"

"You... do you want to avenge your father..." Su Zhongming felt uneasy on the back of his right hand that was scalded by the hot tea.The fourth lady smiled slightly, "Young master, do you think that if I poison the tea, is it to avenge my biological father?" Su Zhongming's uneasiness was revealed in the newspaper, and he said anxiously: "The fourth lady really poisoned the tea. kill me?"

The fourth lady calmly replied: "Mr. Su, don't be afraid. I'm just scaring you. There is no poison in this tea. I'm just afraid that you won't accept my identity, so I want to scare you like this." Hearing this, Su Zhongming knew that the tea was not poisonous , without any danger, he calmed down immediately, but doubts quickly overwhelmed his mind.

He asked: "Since you know that I have had a grudge with Zi Qixiang, why doesn't the Fourth Madam hate me? Why don't you take the opportunity to take revenge?" The Fourth Madam replied, "Mr. Su, you are the one who avenged me! It is because of him It was my biological father, and I have been slow to persuade the head of the family to go to Liguo to have a reconciliation with him, now that you have hurt him so badly, I don't have to live in this grudge anymore."

"You...hate your father? Because he sent you to the porches for his own jade?" Su Zhongming guessed carefully.The Fourth Madam gritted her teeth and beat her knees with her fists, "He is worse than a beast, and he does a lot of evil! At that time, I hated myself for having such a biological father!"

"Fourth madam, you are very strong. If you hadn't pursued your own way of life and survived, perhaps you would not have lived a happy and peaceful life like this." Su Zhongming spoke, as if to comfort her, calming her lips and teeth. Between hate.
