Chapter 710 Chapter 710
When he leaned back to look, he saw two beautiful young women, surrounded by maids, walking towards Pei An. Although they looked about the same in their eyebrows, the difference could be seen at a glance.
One is simple, elegant and quiet, gentle yet a little cold.
The other one was bright and beautiful. When she saw him from afar, she was already waving a cocoon fan, and her voice was as fresh and melodious as a yellow oriole. "Sanlang, your place is really elegant, a good place to hide away."
She was smiling brightly, and her clothes and ornaments were dazzling.
Huang Zhi was in a panic. Seeing these two figures, he was just glad that his elder brother was not there, because half a step behind Song Guanzhou was the plain and elegant Xu Lingqiao.
When revisiting the old place, Xu Lingqiao came to this place by accident.
When she saw the pond in the yard again, she felt dizzy and would have almost fallen if Dieyi and Lianhua hadn't supported her on both sides.
The only ones who were unaware of the situation were Pei An and his wife.
The two of them greeted Huang Zhi, who suppressed all his emotions. Song Guanzhou, on the other hand, took Xu Lingqiao's arm and said, "Sanlang has also seen my sister, right?"
"Huang Zhi has met Miss Cousin."
He bowed and greeted Xu Lingqiao, who knelt down to return the greeting without saying a word from beginning to end. Song Guanzhou didn't understand the deep meaning of this and said it was a coincidence.
He then mentioned the bonsai sent by Mu Yunzhi and expressed his gratitude in many ways.
Huang Zhi repeatedly said he didn't dare, "My cousin said that the young lady would definitely like it. It's true, the young lady has a unique taste."
So he called the servants and asked them to put chairs and stools in place.
Song Guanzhou saw that there was no maid, so he asked Diewu and a few others to help. They all sat down under a Podocarpus carpus tree in the courtyard. Xu Lingqiao suppressed his fear and terror, lowered his head and said nothing.
Song Guanzhou seemed to see that she was uncomfortable in the presence of a strange man and wanted to take her away.
Xu Lingqiao quickly held her hand and said, "Good sister, just rest for a while. I saw that Brother Linshan and his men were repairing the car very quickly, so it shouldn't take long."
"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me in a low voice and we can go for a walk together."
The two of them were talking in low voices, and Huang Zhiju saw it all.
"Madam, cousin, it's a bit cold outside. There is an observation deck on the east side of my house. You can see the beautiful scenery of autumn leaves. Why don't I send someone to take you there to rest for a while?"
Xu Lingqiao was afraid that people in the house would recognize her, so that morning, she jumped into the pond. Fortunately, she survived, but her face was seen by many people.
Walking around?
Absolutely not!
Xu Lingqiao got anxious and quickly stood up, not even bothering to greet him. She said anxiously, "Don't bother me, my sister and I will just rest here for a while."
Huang Zhi could clearly see the panic in her eyes.
Feeling even more guilty, he could only nod his head, "Okay, if the cousin and the young lady need anything, just tell them."
Pei An and Huang Zhi had more common topics. They gathered together and talked about the direction of the court. Huang Zhi sighed, "I'm afraid it will be another cold winter this year. I just hope there won't be a blizzard, otherwise it will be another snowstorm."
Pei An nodded.
"I met Lord Lin from the Imperial Observatory a few days ago, and he said that this year is fine, but the sky is unpredictable and no one can tell for sure."
When the gentleman talks about things, he always puts the big things first.
Song Guanzhou looked at the sun getting higher and higher, and became a little anxious. He told Hehua to go and see, and when he came back to report, he said it would take a while.
The carriage was in good condition, but the shaft broke when it was going downhill.
Xu Lingqiao was even more anxious and wished she could leave the place where the nightmare happened immediately. She had no appetite to enjoy the fresh fruits that Huang Zhi had people bring her.
Instead, Song Guanzhou dragged Xu Lingqiao up and walked around the yard with interest.
He loved all the flowers and plants he saw. Finally, he saw a beautiful double-petaled red camellia and sent someone to report it to Huang Zhi.
Huang Zhi:……?
Die Wu covered her mouth, looked at her fourth son and the third son of the Huang family, and said with a smile, "My young mistress has taken a fancy to the camellia. She saw that there were more than a dozen flowers blooming on several camellia trees. She sent a servant to beg the third son to let her pick two flowers to wear. Is that okay?"
"Of course you can. Please don't be polite, Madam and Miss Cousin."
Pei An held his forehead with his hand, "My wife is very childish, fortunately Sanlang tolerates her."
"Silang, you don't have to be polite. If there are flowers to be picked, you should pick them. Otherwise, there is no one to appreciate the flowers in this yard on weekdays. Many beautiful flowers will just bloom and wither quietly, which is boring. It is also a blessing for them to be appreciated by the young lady today."
With permission from her host, Diewu ran toward the camellia tree.
Song Guanzhou tilted his head, seemingly talking to Xu Lingqiao about something happy, his smile was as beautiful as a flower, very pleasing to the eye.
Pei An seemed a little worried.
So she stood up and walked over, "Have you picked them?" As soon as she finished speaking, Diewu had already lifted up Dieyi, "Fourth Young Master, please make way..."
Pei An: ...Fortunately, I know some Kung Fu.
Song Guanzhou pointed at the pink-purple camellia on top and said, "That one. Sister doesn't want to wear it in her hair, so I only want this one."
Huang Zhi did not come forward, but just watched Pei An and his wife from a distance. The two were talking and laughing. When Die Wu and the other woman picked the flowers, they handed them directly to Pei An.
Pei An took it, plucked off the extra leaves, and looked at Song Guanzhou, "Where did you say the hairpin is?"
Song Guanzhou pointed his finger at the right side of the high bun and looked at Pei An sideways.
"Thank you, Shiro. Here is the hairpin."
Pei An readily agreed. He held her bun with one hand and gently inserted the other hand into the bun. After gently stroking the tangled hair, Pei An took a half step back and looked her up and down.
"Well, people are more beautiful than flowers."
Song Guanzhou's eyes were smiling, very naughty, "Silang is a lover's eyes see beauty in everything, let me ask my sister."
Turning to look at Xu Lingqiao, Xu Lingqiao forced a smile, "Not bad, it matches your skirt today very well."
"Sister, wear one too..."
Xu Lingqiao waved her hands repeatedly, supported Lianhua and took two steps back, almost bumping into Huang Zhi, "Miss, be careful."
Lianhua exclaimed, and Xu Lingqiao stopped quickly.
Huang Zhi wanted to reach out to help, but felt it was inappropriate, so he quickly stepped aside and said, "Cousin, please be careful where you step."
Xu Lingqiao nodded slightly and walked forward a few steps holding Lianhua.
Song Guanzhou walked over with her skirt lifted, looking very graceful. Under the long skirt with a moon-white base and peach blossom-colored surface, she looked like a fairy descending from heaven.
"Be careful, sister."
Xu Lingqiao felt more and more uncomfortable. "Guanzhou, I wonder if the carriage has been repaired? It's getting late."
Song Guanzhou frowned, "That's true. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to play in the water."
When he turned around and was about to urge Pei An, He Hua rushed in again, "Fourth Master, Young Madam, Brother Lin Shan said that the car can't be repaired for a while..."
Good guy!
Song Guanzhou was slightly disappointed and turned to look at Pei An, "How far is this place from Wenxi Villa?"
Pei An estimated, "About ten miles."
