Chapter 195 Chuan Niang Folk Song

Unexpectedly, he encountered a big pit and the car swayed. Yufeng let out a light cry and turned to Lu Jinping. Lu Jinping naturally held her with the flow. Yufeng snuggled in his arms as if his muscles and bones were slimming. After a while, he struggled to sit up, stroked the messy hair on his forehead, and said with a flushed face: "Yes, sorry, this road is too bumpy..."

Lu Jinping's feeling of embracing the soft jade warm fragrance just now remained at his fingertips. He didn't dare to reminisce, so he asked casually: "What are you doing these days?"

"Well, I didn't do anything, I just wrote and played the piano."

"By the way, your piano skills are really good."

"Thank you for your praise. I will play the piano for you later."

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Okay, it would be even more interesting to be able to listen to your piano sound on the river."

As he spoke, the carriage left the city and came to the pier outside the city.

Sure enough, there was a pleasure boat parked on the dock, which was different from the one that Lu Jinping had kidnapped by Lu Niang before. It was a serious big ship, and this one was a small boat, with a pergola set up in the entire cabin, with two rows of seats on both sides. The entire cabin was transparent and bright, and it was completely visible.

The bow of the ship is flat. There is a jade zither on the deck and an incense burner is inserted.

Ye ●Qingqing took the lead in boarding the pleasure boat and quickly searched the entire boat. There was no problem, and there was no one else, except for the boatman who was lying on the boat. Ye Qingqing was relieved only when she saw that the boatman could not do anything. She had already made up her mind that this time, no matter what the reason was, she would never leave Lu Jinping.

Lu Jinping supported Yu Feng and stepped onto the pleasure boat, and Su Sanmei followed.

Yufeng ordered the anchor to mount the anchor. The pleasure boat slowly wandered towards the middle of the river. The gentle wind blew gently, and it was particularly cool in the cool summer. Although the sun was scorching, there was a pergola above my head to cover the sun, so I couldn't feel the hotness of the sun.

Lu Jinping sat cross-legged on the soft couch, and Ye Qingqing stood beside him. Su Sanmei and Yufeng's maid were responsible for placing food and tea.

When they were packed up and stood on both sides, Yufeng kissed a pot of incense, sat down in front of the Yaoqin, smiled at Lu Jinping, and gently tied his fingers and played them slowly.

Lu Jinping actually doesn't understand Yaoqin, but he likes the music of Yaoqin very much. It can make people very quiet, as if he returns to the wonderful scenery of the ancient mountains and flowing waters.

Just then, a dark cloud floated over and the sky drizzled. But at this moment, most of the sky was still bright and full of sunshine. This sun rain landscape was really amazing.

It is really a pleasure to hear such beautiful piano sounds in such a scenery.

After the song was played, Lu Jinping was so excited that he clapped and applauded. He said, "The classical sound of the piano is really refreshing. Thank you for your hard work. First, eat and drink, talk and rest."

Yufeng sat down next to Lu Jinping, reached out to grab a fruit, peeled it with a knife, and handed it to Lu Jinping.

Lu Jinping took a bite and looked at the river. On the wide river, there were many pleasure boats wandering among the rippling blue waves. There were many fishing boats of all sizes, including many fishing boats and fishermen casting nets. Some were wearing straw hats and fishing quietly on the river. What a pastoral landscape painting.

At this moment, a mountain song floated from the river:

I miss you, I burst into tears.

I think of the heartbreak of my heart,

I miss you, I can't be in pairs.

Tears under the bed turn into fish pond.

When he heard this song, Lu Jinping's mouthful of fruit stopped when he opened his mouth. He was neither swallowed nor vomited, and his eyes were fixed on the river. He seemed to be thinking about something.

Then, the singing of the woman from afar slowly floated over again:

So pitiful,

The melons and bitter melons are all in the field,

The sweet melon stole it,

Bitter melon comes to guard the empty fields in old age.

Lu Jinping thought he had heard it wrong. But this time he heard it really, and his chest was as if he had a heavy hammer, he stood up, walked to the side of the boat, held the railing and looked into the river. He saw boats of all sizes on the river, but he didn't know that the singing was coming from the boat, but the singing sound was pleasant and Lu Jinping would definitely not forget it. It turned out that this was Lu Niang who had kissed him in this river.

From afar, the graceful singing came again:

I miss you,

Nine of the ten hearts of liver are broken.

There is still a life left for raising a girl,

Brother wants to be willing to part with my heart.

Lu Jinping screamed, rushed out of the cabin, stood at the bow and looked at it, but there was no familiar figure among the boats up and down, and the singing was no longer heard.

Lu Jinping was disappointed and stood at the bow of the boat but was unwilling to go in.

Ye Qingqing was very nervous. Following him, she seemed to hear the sound that was the noble lady that day. So she was afraid that someone would suddenly jump out of the river and pull the Lord into the water. She would be really dereliction of duty.

Everything was very calm. Lu Jinping's eyes turned and turned around and said to Su Sanmei: "Can you sing a mountain song?"

Su Sanmei blushed a little and said, "Of course we all have it in the mountains when singing a mountain song."

"Okay, then you sing, I'll tell you what to sing."

Su Sanmei nodded and stood beside Lu Jinping and looked at him. Lu Jinping thought about it and said in a low voice. Su Sanmei didn't remember it at once. Lu Jinping repeated it twice, and then she remembered it, cleared her throat, and the melodious singing sounded melodiously:

Willows are green and green rivers,

Writing the sound of sister singing on the river,

The sun rises in the east and the rains in the west,

Tao is ruthless but affectionate.

This poem is the famous "Bamboo Branch Ci" by Liu Yuxi, a poet of the Middle and Late Tang Dynasty, which appeared seventy or eighty years later. However, it just conveys the mood at this moment. Lu Jinping couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had for Lu Niang, but he just felt that after so long, he had gradually forgotten it, but he was awakened by this unexpected song that happened half a year ago. He was excited and couldn't help but let Su Sanmei sing this poem.

This is a quatrain that has been passed down through the ages, and it is not comparable to those slang folk songs that seem simple. It just so happens that the drizzle is drizzling while shining brightly on the sun. This poem is very relevant to the topic. Especially the last sentence, the sun rises in the east and rains in the west, it says that it is ruthless but affectionate. It really touches such a scene and the tender string in the deepest hearts of the literati and poets, which attracts many literati and poets on the river to stop boats and watch and praise them at the intersection.

Listening to the song, it was sung by a pretty village girl. There was a handsome young man standing next to him, far apart but I don’t know who it was. Many literati and poets wanted to come over to make friends, but a small boat came to Lu Jinping’s pleasure boat like an arrow.

The boatwoman pressed the cloak on his head very low, half of his face blocking it. He was wearing a very wide coarse short shirt, but he couldn't hide his figure. Just looking at this figure, Lu Jinping couldn't help but feel a sudden jump in his heart. Could it be that Lu Niang is here?

This thought came out of his head. The boat girl had already taken off the hat on her head, stood at the stern of the boat, looking at him with a smile. It was no one else, it was Lu Niang who had a skin-loving relationship with her.

"It's really you? Madam, are you okay?"

Lu Niang smiled sweetly, blocked the hat in her hand in front of her chest, and slapped her gently twice. The breeze blew her hair: "Your mountain song is not just a mountain song, but also a wonderful poem. If you can make such a beautiful poem, if I don't come out to see you, I'm afraid I will be snatched away by someone else. You wouldn't let me talk to you through the boat like this, right? Do you dare to come on my boat?"

"Why don't you dare?" Lu Jinping said with a smile.

Lu Niang had said before that she would not come to arrest him again, and even if Lu Niang was entrusted by someone to arrest him, he still wanted to follow this vine to find out who the person who was arresting him. Now that she met Lu Niang, the clue was re-released, hoping to gain something. So, he agreed without hesitation that the boatman should get off the ship immediately.

Ye Qingqing quickly stopped him and said, "Sir, no!"

Lu Jinping patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I really want to know her. This is a rare opportunity, you should know."

Ye Qingqing remembered that Lu Jinping had said before that he deliberately asked Lu Niang to capture her, just to investigate the person entrusting Lu Niang later. In order to capture the real murderer instructing her behind the scenes, this was still worth it. Ye Qingqing had to let go of her hand slowly.

The boatman took the boat board and put it between the boat and the pleasure boat. Ye Qingqing wanted to support Lu Jinping, but Lu Niang jumped gently onto the pedal and reached out to pull Lu Jinping.

Of course, Lu Jinping would not retreat. He reached out and grabbed her slender hand. Under her guidance, he walked past the flashing pedal and boarded Lu Niang's boat.

At this time, several pleasure boats came from afar, and several literati and mobs stood at the bow of the boat and wanted to say hello. Seeing that Lu Jinping had already boarded a boat with only one boat girl, I was a little surprised. I wonder what this talented young man meant to be alone with a boat girl on a boat? Of course, they didn't know the true identity of the boat girl.

Lu Niang gently supported the bamboo pole in her hand on the side of the pleasure boat, and the boat sailed forward like a sharp sword. The boat was too big to turn around, and she did not follow the boat, and in a moment she was left far behind by the boat.

Of course, Ye Qingqing and his boats also chased after them like crazy, but did not get close, because after getting rid of the literati and poets who wanted to come up to talk to Lu Jinping, Lu Niang no longer carried the boat and let the boat float on the river. So Ye Qingqing and his boats quickly caught up with Lu Jinping and his boats, but of course, they knew that they had to talk, so they could only follow them far away and not get close.

Lu Niang put down the boat pole, sat cross-legged at the bow of the boat, looking at Lu Jinping without blinking. Lu Jinping felt a little embarrassed when he was seen: "Why do you look at me like this?"

"I always dream about you during this period. I finally saw you, of course I have to take a closer look."
