In Fengchi Mountain in the early morning, the twilight and autumn colors complement each other. Thousands of maple leaves are dyed layer by layer, colorful and radiant. A mountain wind blows, and the maple leaf forest rustles like a tide. A white
The birds flew up from the depths of the woods, raising their heads and rushing toward the rising sun.
Lu Yan held on to the fence of the viewing platform and concentrated on chasing the flying bird. The mountain wind blew his robes making a beeping sound, as if he was about to fly away accidentally.
Lin Jinrong walked up the stone steps alone, climbed onto the stone platform, and stopped beside him.
"Are you here?" Lu Mian's tone was gentle and calm, as if he was chatting away.
"The morning breeze in the mountains is cool, so don't let it blow for too long. It's a critical moment now, so you can't get sick." Lin Jinrong walked to him, squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and sighed softly: "It's so beautiful."
The flying bird on the sky turned into a small black dot and was no longer visible. Lu Yan withdrew his gaze and smiled slightly: "It is very beautiful. I came here to offer incense in the past few years. I never thought that one day I would be able to be here with you."
Looking down at the autumn colors from the observation deck.”
Lin Jinrong thought about the year when Lu Yun proposed marriage to the Wu family and was rejected, and couldn't help but laugh too: "It can only be said that things in the world are unpredictable."
Things in the world are impermanent. Lu Yan understood this deeply and said with a smile: "At that time, I was sitting here alone at night, looking at the yard where you live, thinking about my life events. Don't look down on me. I have known myself since I was sensible.
She must be marrying the daughter of the Lin family, but I don’t know who it will be. What were you doing at that time?"
"I won't tell you." Lin Jinrong was holding Tao's knees and crying loudly, crying and shouting that she wouldn't marry him. The result was that fate was not as good as fate.
The sun was getting higher and the sunlight was getting stronger. Lu Yan squinted his eyes and looked into the distance: "Forget it if you don't tell me. I'll tell you. Marry a virtuous wife. Among the daughters of the Lin family, you are undoubtedly the one with the best talent, appearance and conduct. No matter what
What do the elders think? You were the one I wanted to marry at that time, even though I knew you didn’t want to see me. You probably don’t know that since you and I got engaged, I feel so happy when I hear people praising you, and I always feel like God
He didn't treat me too poorly, and he didn't treat me like an unscrupulous concubine or someone with bad conduct."
Lin Jinrong didn't know how to answer his words, so he just stood aside and said nothing.
"I know you are not satisfied with this marriage, but I think that for a lifetime, you will always know how good I am. We have been working together for a year and a half, advancing and retreating together. Just when we are deeply in love and can't let go, we suddenly reach this point.
, it’s beyond my expectation. Isn’t it true that things in the world are fickle?” Lu Yan took back his hand on the stone railing, turned to look at Lin Jinrong, and said seriously: “Arong, you are really full of lies towards me.
Pretense? I have thought a lot. You have planned everything for me and helped me so much. Nothing about the clothes or food you made for me is not to my liking. Is this possible just by perfunctory? You are on my collar
You were angry and angry when you found Rouge. You and I fell out and quarreled and refused to let me take people in. Are you doing it just to deceive me? Are you really not interested in me at all? There are many ways to make me give up.
, but why don’t you do it?”
Lin Jinrong opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't want to listen to her anymore: "Okay, no more. I feel that I have made a lot of progress in the past year or so. I am not as aggressive as before, and I can always think more broadly when things happen.
, thinking about it over and over again, I feel that it is indeed of great benefit. But I have figured it out, but you have not figured it out yet. You can think about it slowly when I am not at home."
Lin Jinrong frowned slightly when she saw the stubborn look on his face. He was going in another direction again.
After returning from Pingji Temple, it was the night of August 20th in the blink of an eye.
After the whole family had a farewell meal specially prepared for Lu Mian, Mrs. Lu gave Lu Mian a few words and repeatedly asked Lin Jinrong: "Have everything been packed?"
Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "It's all packed up."
However, Mr. Lu was worried and asked Lin Yuzhen: "Are the arrangements for everyone to go with him appropriate? Do you have enough money?"
Lin Yuzhen said seriously: "This is a big deal, and my wife must be extremely cautious."
Mrs. Lu said angrily: "Didn't I just ask a few days ago? Now I'm asking again."
Mr. Lu stroked his beard and smiled: "Erlang has become more and more promising recently, so I can be more confused."
Lu Yan smiled shyly: "My grandfather taught me well."
Mr. Lu glanced at him and Lin Jinrong, and waved generously: "You go back first."
The two of them bowed and said goodbye to everyone, and left Rongjing Residence together. There was no moon that night, and the weather was neither cold nor hot, so Lu Yan told Lychee and Cherry: "You go back first, and grandma and I will take a walk in the garden."
Lychee hurriedly handed over the lantern, but Lu Mian refused to accept it: "Just go for a walk, no need."
Lychee smiled furtively at Lin Jinrong, pulled the cherry and hurried forward. There was no one around, so Lu Yan tentatively pulled Lin Jinrong's hand. As soon as Lin Jinrong's finger moved, he grabbed it.
He said seriously: "I'm not at home, so be more careful."
Lin Jinrong also whispered: "When you go out, be more careful. It's cold in autumn, remember to put on more clothes, and pay more attention to safety."
"I'm with Wu Xiang and others. There are more than ten people in the group. We all know each other and take care of each other. It won't be a problem." Lu Yan handed something over: "Here you go."
Lin Jinrong felt it was just a piece of cloth, but it was dark and he couldn't see clearly what it was, so he asked, "What?"
Lu was silent for a moment and said, "Your sleeves."
Lin Jinrong was angry and funny: "Is a piece of sleeve worth hiding for so long?"
Hearing the smile in her tone, Lu Yan felt relieved: "I didn't want to give it to you at first, but you were so anxious. I've been waiting for you to ask me for it again, but you haven't asked me for it. You really can't bear it.
.”
"Erlang! Erlang!" Tu's breathless shout came from behind, and then he ran up to him in small steps supported by Aunt Hui.
Lin Jinrong saw that she was holding a package in her hand and looked at Lu Yan eagerly. He knew that she had something to give to Lu Yan and that she wanted to talk about herself. Although he didn't like her being so sneaky, he didn't want to be in this kind of situation.
Whenever he provoked her, he took his hand out of Lu Yan's hand and said with a smile: "I'm going back first." After saying that, he nodded with Tu and left.
When they returned to the room, Lychee was instructing several little girls to clean up the room and prepare bath water. Brand-new quilts were put on the bed, and the sweet scent of lilies was burned in the incense burner. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like you were gently swiping your gums and waiting for you.
The appearance of returning.
Seeing Lin Jinrong coming in alone, Lizhi asked curiously: "Grandma, where is the second master?"
Lin Jinrong did not disappoint her and said with a smile: "The third wife is looking for him to talk to."
Li Zhi was a little annoyed with Mrs. Tu. Even Mr. Lu knew that he wanted Lu Yan and Lin Jinrong to whisper a few more words. However, she chose this time to find Lu Yan. This was not intentional.
Huh? But he didn’t say anything. He just dragged Lin Jinrong behind, took a fragrant soup to bathe her carefully, changed into light clothes, pressed her down in front of the photo booth, and combed her hair into a lazy and charming hairstyle.
She wanted to apply rouge on her bun, but Lin Jinrong held down Li Zhi's hand and said, "No need for this."
Lychee pursed her lips and tried to tie the hairpin for her with the pearl hairpin that Lu Yan gave to Lin Jinrong. Lin Jinrong couldn't laugh or cry, so she pulled it out again: "It's time to take off my makeup and go to bed, but you come to put my makeup on at this time?"
Lizhi couldn't help but feel anxious. Others didn't know it, but she knew it. Lin Jinrong and Lu Mian had really treated each other like guests these days. This was the best opportunity to break the deadlock. Otherwise, if a talent like Lu Mian went to Beijing, he would win in one fell swoop.
If someone catches her, what will she do? So she took it and put it on Lin Jinrong’s hairpin: “Grandma, just listen to me this time.”
Lin Jinrong said softly: "Litchi, it's not up here."
Lu Yan walked in with a baggage in his hand. He clearly knew what was going on, was expecting and excited, but pretended not to know. He looked sideways at Lin Jinrong and said with a smile, "What are you doing?"
Lychee's face immediately turned red, and she bowed and left: "I'll prepare some hot water for the second master."
Lin Jinrong tightened his collar, stood up and said, "She is joking with me."
Lu Yan's eyes dimmed, he smiled faintly, and motioned for her to go over and look at the package Tu gave her: "I made two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes for me."
Lin Jinrong called Dou'er: "Go and put these two sets of clothes and shoes into the second master's luggage."
Lu Yan said hurriedly: "That's all, it's already packed. It's troublesome to unpack it. It's the same if you leave it at home and wear it when I get back."
Lin Jinrong said: "It's what she wants after all. Just wear it for the exam, otherwise she will be sad."
"A Rong..." Lu Yan suddenly reached out and touched her face, as if he wanted to say something, but quickly retracted his hand and walked quickly behind the screen to wash up.
Lin Jinrong sat at the table, staring at the flickering candlelight in a daze.
After Lu Yan finished taking a bath, he walked out from behind the screen, looked at her and whispered: "It would be bad if I went to sleep next door again tonight, right? I would gossip."
Lin Jinrong got up and put up the tent, Lu Yan blew out the lamp, and the two of them lay down on the bed carefully. In the darkness, Lu Yan gently stretched out a hand to hug Lin Jinrong, only holding her quietly, without saying a word.
For other actions, he only said softly: "Ah Rong, I will wait for you in the capital."
"I wish you all the best in high school." Lin Jinrong smelled the familiar fragrance of ink on his body, and her eyes suddenly became moist.
Early the next morning, Lin Jinrong saw Lu Yan off in the morning light.
At the beginning of September, Lu Jing got married, and brothers Lu Shao, Lu Lun, and Lu Gen rushed back to Pingzhou from Taiming Mansion. The Song family also rushed back from their old house in the countryside. Lu Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and there was a scene of chaos.
Happy. Only Lu Lun seemed to be a different person. He was no longer as jumping up and down as before. He sat wherever he wanted, with a gloomy face and said nothing, as if someone owed him rice to pay him back.
General chaff.
Lu Jianzhong chased and scolded him several times, but he remained the same, lazily ignoring him.
Lin Jinrong knew that Lu Lun escaped from home at this time that year, and the day he came back would be the time to die. She would not allow this to happen again.
