"Ah, my daughter, what's wrong with you?!" The master of the Xu family just came back after watching him at home, and he looked so embarrassed, and his clothes were still wet, so he anxiously came up to check.
"My daughter is okay, dad, I'm going to change clothes first." Xu Ranshuo bowed to her father, and then walked to the backyard.
"Tell me, what's going on?" As soon as Xu Ranshu left, Mr. Xu changed his face and became stern, questioning Xu Guli.
Xu Guli sighed and said, "Dad, can't you let me change my clothes and explain to you slowly?"
Xu Guli was a little sad. They said that other people's families favored sons over daughters. But my own family was good and favored daughters over sons. She was the tool to manage the family, and her sister was the one who loved her most.
Coming back from Liusu Mountain, fortunately, I met a group of people coming back from Daoxuan Temple on the way. I used a face-saving excuse and promise to avoid being drenched in the rain all the way back. I was also greatly stimulated by the autumn rain.
Why can my sister go to rest and still have to be interrogated here as if she was being punished?
"No." Mr. Xu sat down on the chair, waiting for his son to give an explanation.
At this time, a servant brought a bowl of ginger soup. Xu Guli took it and drank it without saying anything. The coldness in his body made him very uncomfortable.
After finishing the drink, Xu Guli breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had come to life again, and sat down on the chair carelessly. Seeing his father's cold eyes from the corner of his eye, he hurriedly replied: "We
Went to Daotu Temple."
"Nonsense, of course I know you can go to Daotu Temple, but why did you end up like this? Did you meet a prodigal or a gangster? Didn't Si Si and Gan Mu follow you?"
"Dad, please listen to me slowly and don't get excited." Xu Guli calmed his father's emotions and continued. "We went to see the Inverted Hanging Temple, which is famous for its peculiarity. We also had a lot of fun. Later,
Met... a friend."
In an instant, Xu Guli changed the situation about Gan Mu's friend. This incident could not be entirely blamed on Gan Mu. He also agreed at the time.
"Then what?"
"Then I went to the Red Dust Garden with that friend." When he said this, Xu Guli's voice became much weaker, and then he secretly looked at his father's livid face.
"It's over." Xu Guli muttered in his heart.
With a "pop", Mr. Xu threw his teacup on the ground in front of Xu Guli. The teacup shattered to pieces and the tea spilled out in a fan-shaped shape.
"Did I remind you before you set off that you can go anywhere in Liusu Mountain, but you can't enter or get close to the Hongchen Garden. You get hot-headed whenever you meet any friends from the world. Look, you've harmed your sister.
Yes, how can you get married in the future, you evil son!!!"
Mr. Xu was so excited that he was looking for something.
"I, I have to break your legs today!"
"Dad, dad, dad! Ran Shu is fine, Ran Shu is fine, she is still fine, the jade belongs to dad, the jade belongs to dad," Xu Guli said quickly while his father did not find the weapon he could take advantage of.
After hearing his son's nondescript idiom, Mr. Xu calmed down his temper and stared at Xu Guli, waiting for him to give him a complete explanation.
Xu Guli watched his father calm down and breathed a sigh of relief. He really believed that he would break off two of his legs and keep the third one to carry on the family line.
Xu Guli quickly told his father everything that happened in Liusu Mountain.
It was late at night, and the hall was quiet. It had not rained for a moment, but there was not a single shadow of stars and moon in the night sky.
"Dad?" After Xu Guli finished telling the story, he waited for his father's next words, but did not get a reply for a long time. His body began to feel cold again. After all, wet clothes are not comfortable.
"It's Chen Mo again. He saved our daughter from fire and water both times. He is really our family's great benefactor." Mr. Xu took a long breath and heard the name again, although he had never seen it before.
The noodles gave him mixed feelings.
At this time, Pastor Gan and his sister changed their clothes and appeared in the hall. They came to apologize to the Xu family master. After all, it was Gan Mu who put them in danger.
"Xu..."
As soon as Gan Mu's words came out of his mouth, Xu Guli hurriedly said to his father: "Dad, the child has to change his clothes. He is really indispensable."
"Well, go ahead." Mr. Xu seemed to be thinking about something and nodded.
Xu Guli turned his back to his father and hurriedly gestured to the two of them with his eyes, then pulled them away from here.
"Chen Mo, you are indeed our family's benefactor, but you have also harmed our daughter." Mr. Xu sighed again.
...
The Xu family is just temporarily living in a friend's villa, this is not their home.
Xu Ranyan's room.
Xu Ranyan took a hot bath, put on a new set of dry clothes, and sat quietly in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror with the bright candlelight in the room.
Ever since she met Chen Mo for the first time, Xu Ranyan's personality has changed. She is no longer the temperament of galloping on a horse, but has become more like a lady, just to show her most gentle side in front of the man she likes.
, it’s just that the man she likes didn’t notice this about her.
With a "squeak", the door to the room was pushed open. Sun Sisi walked in from the outside, stood behind Xu Ranshuo, gently ruffled her still wet hair, and looked at the two people in the mirror.
"Ran Yan, are you still thinking about that person?" Sun Sisi said softly.
"Do you think we can still meet?" Xu Ranshan said in a daze.
Sun Sisi looked at her possessed look. If that person was not Chen Mo, she would have suspected that he had cast some kind of spell on Ran Sui.
"Ran Yan, you and him are not suitable at all." Sun Si Si turned Xu Ran Shan's body around so that she faced him, and looked into her somewhat blurred eyes. She had to make her give up.
"How do you know if I'm not suitable if you haven't gotten along with me before? He saved me both times. Isn't this fate?" Xu Ranshuo said. She firmly believed that the person she was looking for was the person she could spend her whole life with.
"During the two separations, has he ever felt nostalgic for you?" Sun Sisi said.
"Yes, he just didn't express it. He's not the kind of person who is good at expressing himself." Xu Ranyan explained to Chen Mo. Meeting Chen Mo this time made her even more sure that she and him were destined to be destined.
.
Sun Sisi was a little crazy, and her voice became stern, and said: "Did you see the girl next to him? In front of Zhuluyuan, didn't you see how he held an umbrella for that girl? The umbrella was all
I leaned towards that girl, but half of my body got wet. Maybe you didn’t see it, but I saw it.”
"There is also that person who wants to catch that girl behind her. Didn't you feel the protective look in his eyes?"
"Did you see the relationship between him and the girl when they were parting? If it wasn't a very close relationship, the girl would let him carry her without any scruples?"
"Don't tell me that they are brothers and sisters. One is Chen and the other is Yan. Please stop deceiving yourself, okay?"
"You and him are from two different worlds. Do you know who he is? Last time he said he was from Langzhou. This time he admitted that he was not from the Shang Kingdom. Maybe he was a spy from the Tang Kingdom. Then
The sword he uses is from the Tang Dynasty."
Sun Sisi gave a lot of reasons in one breath, just to make her hungry best friend recognize the reality.
"He said he is not from Shang country, isn't it just to be frank with each other? You can see that he still cares about me." Xu Ranyan said again.
Sun Sisi put her hand on his forehead and murmured: "It's bad, it's bad. Could it be that the rain damaged your brain?"
Xu Ranshan smiled, turned back, looked at herself in the bronze mirror again, and said, "Si Si, do I look bad?"
"Yeah." Sun Sisi nodded and looked at the mirror in the same way.
"Then I have to get better soon. I can't let him see me like this. I was really embarrassed before. Letting her see my ugly side will definitely leave a bad impression on him.
I want to take good care of myself, and when I see him next time, I want him to see the most beautiful me." Xu Ranyan gently touched her cheeks with both hands.
"You still want to see him?!" Sun Sisi was surprised.
"Yes, one after another, we will definitely meet more in the future." Xu Ranyan smiled foolishly, charmingly.
Sun Sisi didn't know how to persuade him. To untie the bell, he still had to tie it: "Then do you know how to find him?"
"I don't know, but as long as I look for him, I can meet him. I also want to go to Liusu Mountain. Si Si, will you go with me?" Xu Ranxiang looked at Sun Si Si in the mirror.
"I...."
Sun Sisi wanted to refuse but couldn't say it, when Xu Guli came.
Seeing his sister's smile, Xu Guli felt relieved and said, "It seems you are fine."
"What do you mean it's okay? The matter is serious." Sun Sisi pulled Xu Guli to the side and whispered.
Xu Guli saw Sun Sisi holding his arm so intimately for the first time. Oh, last time he was hugged by her and escaped from the small courtyard, but that time didn't count. Xu Guli felt happy, it seemed
The disaster in the Red Plum Garden improved their relationship a lot. It seems that good and bad fortunes depend on each other. The ancients do not deceive me.
"I think she's quite happy." Xu Guli responded in a low voice.
"Don't worry about this for now. She just said she was going to find Chen Mo. What do you think we should do? Chen Mo made it very clear when she left. Don't read it. The deeper meaning is to let Xu Ranshan die.
It’s a good idea, but she just can’t hear it.”
"Ah?! It's over, it's over. I promised my dad before that the jade was almost perfect, but now it seems that all my heart has been stolen. How can it be considered a perfect jade?" Xu Guli's face collapsed.
Come down.
"What idiom are you using?" Sun Sisi rolled her eyes at her.
"No matter what, it's better for my father to personally take action to save her precious daughter. I, as the eldest brother, have nothing to lose." Xu Guli looked at his sister's back, his face full of sorrow.
