"Sister Qiyue, look, look, are these flowers pretty?"
Zhuma, who was walking forward, suddenly heard a thick rural accent, "I just picked this in the woods and gave it to you."
She instinctively stopped and looked sideways, only to see a young man about thirteen or fourteen years old, plainly dressed, with a strong build, and full of country atmosphere, squinting his face and grinning, while
A handful of colorful flowers was handed to a cute lolita with flowing silver hair and pink makeup, who was as delicate as a porcelain doll.
The young man was obviously not very good at hiding his thoughts. Even from a long distance away, Zhuma could clearly read his admiration for the silver-haired girl on his face.
“Rednecks are hillbillies!”
Before the silver-haired loli could take the flowers, another loud voice suddenly came from not far away, "Sending gifts in such a tacky way is simply an insult to the July girl."
Before he finished speaking, another slender figure came quickly, and soon stood beside the silver-haired Loli.
I saw that the young man was also thirteen or fourteen years old. He was dressed in rich clothes and had a graceful demeanor. He could tell at a glance that he was the son of a wealthy family. He was completely opposite to the young man before.
Zhuma recognized these three people as Qiyue, a disciple of Piaohua Palace, Li Xian, the prince of Daganlu, and Liu Tiedan from Luohe Village. His eyes rolled around and he stopped unconsciously, watching with interest.
stand up.
"Li, what do you mean?"
Liu Tiedan was ridiculed, and immediately jumped up and shouted, "My flowers are fragrant and beautiful, how can they be tacky?"
"The most important thing in giving a gift is not the gift itself, but the thought."
Li Xian glanced at him with disdain and said calmly, "How do you know how much you care? Of course it depends on how much effort the giver put into preparing this gift. Just pick a few flowers on the road and give them to him.
Miss July, she doesn't spend any money or effort, so she obviously doesn't take her to heart at all."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Liu Tiedan's face turned red. Although he retorted loudly, there was not much confidence in his voice, "I, I just think these flowers are beautiful..."
"Good-looking? Flowers only look good if they are alive!"
Li Xian sneered and said, "The flowers you picked will wither soon. How long can such cheap beauty last?"
"you you……"
Liu Tiedan was born in Luohe Village. He used to date straight men like Zhang Bangbang and Wang Yutou. How could he understand these frivolous things? In terms of eloquence, he was a world away from Li Xian, who was a child of the royal family.
, completely different from each other. He was stunned into silence after a few blows from him. After a long while, he hesitated and asked, "Then you, what good things can you give me?"
"What is my identity?" Little did he know that Li Xian had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. When he heard this, his eyes lit up. He took out a small and exquisite box from his arms, opened the lid, and carefully took out a string of crystals from it.
The clear beads were slowly raised to the top of the head, "How can the gift I gave you be compared to a country bumpkin like you?"
Liu Tiedan looked at it carefully and saw a total of twelve beads, most of which were light blue. Only the seventh one was chosen to be silver for some reason. Each one was translucent, brilliant and pure.
Under the sunlight, it emits a breathtaking and attractive light.
Looking at this string of sparkling and noble beads, even though Liu Tiedan didn't know anything about jewelry, he knew that this was definitely a rare treasure of great value. It would bring together all the wealth of Luohe Village.
I'm afraid I can only buy one or two of them.
This is because he overestimated his hometown.
In fact, with the wealth of Luohe Village, even if three generations of the village have worked tirelessly for a lifetime, they can probably only afford this beaded rope.
"No, it's just because the family has some bad money."
After all, he was in front of the girl he loved. He knew clearly that this was a treasure that he would never be able to save in his lifetime, but he still insisted on arguing, "How much effort did you put into going to the merchant store to buy beads?"
"Buying beads?"
Li Xian's face was full of disdain, and he looked at him as if he was standing in front of a fool, "I personally designed this for Miss Qiyue, and also invited the top jewelry master in Daqian to do it.
Now, why don't you go to the store and find a bunch to take a look at?"
"It's so mysterious." Liu Tiedan became increasingly unconfident, "Other than being brighter, what else is different?"
"Forget it, discussing elegant things with a country bumpkin like you is just playing the harp to an ox." Li Xian laughed angrily and simply ignored him. Instead, he handed the beads to Qiyue diligently, "Miss Qiyue must be able to see that.
What’s extraordinary about this bead.”
"This is......"
After all, Qiyue was a girl, and she naturally lacked resistance to jewelry. Although she had no intention of accepting it, she couldn't help but look at the beads carefully. At this glance, she immediately discovered the doorway, "narcissus, magnolia, peach blossom"
......orchid......"
It turns out that these twelve beads have actually been carved with a kind of flower with clever hands, namely narcissus, magnolia, peach blossom, peony, pomegranate, lotus, orchid, osmanthus, chrysanthemum, hibiscus, rose and plum blossom.
, in the culture of the Dagan people, each corresponds to the twelve months of the year.
That is to say, Qi Qi has been fond of flowers and plants since she was a child, and she was very close to Yin Ning'er in Piaohua Palace. If it were someone else, she probably wouldn't be able to recognize even half of them.
"As expected of Miss Qiyue, she has extraordinary knowledge."
Seeing that she actually recognized all twelve kinds of flowers, Li Xian was delighted and admired her. He admired her even more. While admiring her, he also didn't forget to step on his love rival, "He's not like some country bumpkin who doesn't understand elegance."
"This silver bead is painted with orchids, does it symbolize July?"
Even though she didn't like Li Xian, Qi Qi couldn't help but be moved by his subtle thoughts.
"The wide hall is lightly fragrant, and the high platform is far away, and the orchid is the most suitable for the temperament of the girl in July."
Li Xian nodded repeatedly, not forgetting to express his gratitude and said, "Your hair color is so beautiful and so rare. In order to find this similar silver bead, I almost traveled all over the imperial capital a few days ago."
"Prince Lao has taken the trouble."
When Qi Qi heard this, she couldn't help but feel touched, but she still refused softly, "This gift is too valuable. Please forgive Qi Qi for not accepting it."
"Why did Miss Qiyue say this? With our friendship, what can't we accept?"
Li Xian also said that she was being polite, but persisted, "Besides, this is a jewelry made just for you. If you don't accept it, it will lose its meaning. I can only throw it into the sea. Wouldn't it be a pity?"
"Friendship, what friendship?"
Qiyue's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, but before she could reply, Liu Tiedan on the side had already sneered and said, "Is it because you sent someone to kidnap Sister Qiyue away?"
"fart!"
Li Xian was hit in a sore spot by him. His expression changed and he said angrily, "This is a matter between me and Miss Qiyue. What are you talking about, you country bumpkin?"
"Am I talking too much?"
Liu Tiedan was unafraid and did not back down and said, "I'm here to talk to Sister Qiyue, but I don't know who is this shameless person who insists on coming here to cause trouble?"
"Hillbilly, do you have the guts to say it again?"
"Just say it, so what if you say it a hundred times? You can't beat me!"
"you......"
Two hot-blooded young men actually started arguing loudly in front of their sweetheart, and their faces were red and their ears were red.
I wonder how Zhong Wen is doing?
Where he was, did he think of me?
While the two were quarreling, Qi Qiu unconsciously looked up into the distance, her thoughts no longer knowing where to go.
It’s great to be young!
Looking at the entanglement between the two men and one woman, Zhuma felt quite amused. She couldn't help but cover her lips and smile. Facing the three boys and girls who were not much younger than herself, she actually felt a bit like an older person.
.
"While you still have the chance, just enjoy your youth."
She murmured to herself, "I don't know if days like this will ever happen again."
At this time, a gentle touch came from her cheek. Zhuma turned her head slightly, and saw Xiao Ming, the golden-feathered roc, appearing beside her at some point. She was shaking her wings gently, and the feathers brushed against her skin, soft and itchy.
Yes, very comfortable.
"Xiao Ming, are you worried about me?"
Zhuma smiled gently at it, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Xiao Ming let out a sharp squeak, and then rubbed his head affectionately on her neck.
"When Zhong Wen leaves, let us hold on and wait for him to come back." Zhuma hugged its furry neck and said firmly in Peng language, "So before I see him, I will not lose, no matter what the opponent is.
who."
Xiao Ming raised his head and roared, his eyes shining with blue light, as if responding to her determination.
"Sister Zhuma?"
At this time, a surprising voice suddenly came from not far away, "Is that you?"
"Shui...little brother Jiang?"
Zhuma looked following the voice and saw the speaker clearly. Her eyes lit up and a charming and bright smile appeared on her face.
