Xiao Baozi was obviously unfamiliar with the name Guiyuan.
Xiao Baozi was not interested in getting to know the so-called owner of Guiyuan.
She only cares about her cow in the love table!
So she refused without hesitation, which made Mr. Tu Er quite embarrassed, because Guiyuan was in Wu State, and his reputation was not well known. He was not as well-known as those so-called aristocratic families, but in fact Guiyuan's The strength far exceeds people's imagination.
It is also far above those aristocratic families!
There are only a handful of people who know Guiyuan’s strength.
These few people were all eager to meet and exchange a few words with the owner who returned to the garden, but the owner took the initiative to invite Miss Xiao, but they were unwilling.
Just when Xiao Baozi was about to leave on his little black donkey, Mr. Tu Er said again: "The matter involves Li Chenan, girl, should you go or not?"
Xiao Baozi turned the donkey's head and said one word: "Go!"
…
…
Return to the garden and leave the tower.
On the ninth floor of the nine-story tower, it is very high and there is a different world here.
It is a huge pavilion!
There is a wonderful cave inside this pavilion!
Because there are rockeries, flowing water, pavilions, and several flower beds of different sizes and shapes inside!
There was only one kind of tree growing in those flower beds!
Plum tree!
Lots of well-proportioned plum trees!
It is already February, and the plum blossoms have passed their peak blooming season.
There are only a few sparsely hanging flowers on a certain branch of a certain plum tree.
But the ground under the tree was covered with red!
When Xiao Baozi followed Mr. Tu Er up the stairs to the ninth floor, she was stunned by the red color all over the floor.
Walking on the bluestone corridor, she looked around at the scenery here with great curiosity. She had to admit that the owner of this place had great taste.
And of course, rich!
As she walked, she suddenly felt that this place had a familiar feeling.
I always feel like I’ve seen it somewhere.
But she was sure that she had never been to Guiyuan, which was hidden in the city.
It wasn't until she came to a plum grove and saw an elegant xuan that she was suddenly surprised——
There is a plaque hanging on the lintel of Xiaoxuan, with three words written on it: Painted Mei Xuan!
There is also such a small pavilion in the Plum Garden in Yujing City, Kyoto, Ningguo.
It is also called Hua Mei Xuan!
The Plum Blossom Pavilion here is built exactly the same as the Plum Blossom Pavilion in Meiyuan!
Even the three words on the plaque are exactly the same!
She suddenly turned back and looked carefully again.
The layout here is exactly the same as that of the plum garden in Yujing City!
No matter how crazy she was, Xiao Baozi, she still connected this place with the Plum Garden in Yujing City.
Mr. Tu Er asked in a low voice at this moment:
"Is Miss Xiao still familiar with her?"
"familiar!"
"How does this place compare with the Plum Garden in Yujing City?"
"It's a little less smokey... It's too high, it's very cold at high places!"
Mr. Tu Er grinned: "Being tall also has its benefits."
"What's the benefit?"
"The first thing is to be clean, and the second thing is... to stand high and see far away!"
Xiao Baozi curled his lips and said, "In terms of purity, it is not as good as my Wanxi Zhai. If you say you can see far... standing on the top of Wangui Mountain, you can see a hundred miles away!"
"I don't know much about elegance. I just think that although this place is good, it's not what I like."
Mr. Tu Er was startled, thinking that among the countless people who had been here, they all praised it highly, and this Miss Xiao was the first one to say she didn't like it!
"Then what does a girl like?"
Xiao Baozi looked at the lintel again, pondered for three breaths, and said:
“Down to Earth!”
"There is smoke and fire on earth!"
"There is a field when you go out!"
“There are still cows plowing the fields!”
She turned to look at Mr. Tu Er, her slender eyebrows raised slightly: "Do you think this girl is just a mountain girl?"
Mr. Tu Er smiled awkwardly and was about to speak when a voice came from the Painted Plum Pavilion.
A woman's voice!
"Miss Xiao is really kind, no wonder Chen An falls in love with you!"
"Whether it's a girl from a mountain village or a rich lady, these are not important..."
The door to Hua Mei Xuan opened with a creak.
A middle-aged woman stood at the door.
Obviously she should be the owner here!
Xiao Baozi's eyes fell on this woman at that moment.
She was not wearing gorgeous silk and satin, but she was also wearing extremely simple linen clothes!
I don't know if she has applied makeup, but she looks very pretty, probably in her thirties.
Except for a black jade pendant hanging around her waist, she had no extra accessories.
Even her bun was only worn with a willow hairpin, not even a pendant.
She also wore a pair of blue cloth shoes on her feet, with her ankles exposed and obviously not even wearing socks.
But it happened that she was dressed like this, and in Xiao Baozi's eyes, she felt that this woman gave her a sense of nobility——
Still the expensive one!
It’s so expensive that she doesn’t need anything else to set it off!
Her temperament.
Her demeanor.
Those deep eyes of hers!
And the casualness and ease with which she stood in front of the door!
Xiao Baozi had not met many noble people, and she subconsciously felt that Zhongli Ruoshui seemed to have a similar temperament.
It's just that Zhongli Ruoshui is a little thin, and this lady looks thicker.
Thinking about it is the accumulation of years.
If Zhongli Ruoshui had reached this age, he would probably be the same as this lady.
So she always believed that Zhongli Ruoshui was the most suitable person to stay with Li Chenan for the rest of his life!
If Li Chenan really becomes the emperor, Zhongli Ruoshui will be the most suitable queen for Ningguo!
Only then can she be the mother of the world.
As for me... it would be most appropriate to stay in Wanxi Zhai if I occasionally use that ox to plow the fields.
"Miss Xiao, please come in!"
"Thank you!"
Xiao Baozi rarely said thank you to someone, but at this moment she said thank you from the bottom of her heart.
This noble lady did not make her feel unfamiliar, that is, there was no indescribable sense of distance.
She wasn't being condescending.
She is very easy-going and approachable.
She felt like a sister to Xiao Baozi. She made Xiao Baozi's heart very stable and comfortable.
Xiao Baozi took a step forward and the woman turned around.
Xiao Baozi stepped into the threshold of Hua Mei Xuan and suddenly asked: "What do you call my sister?"
As soon as she said this, the lady paused obviously, as if she was extremely surprised by this title, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Mr. Tu Er, who was following Xiao Baozi, was also startled.
He looked up at Xiao Baozi's back, with a strange look in his eyes.
The lady suddenly turned around and looked at Xiao Baozi with her still bright eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up, revealing her teeth as white as jade.
"Just call me...Sister Ruyi!"
Xiao Baozi also laughed: "Oh, my name is Xiao Baozi, but you can't call me Sister Baozi."
The woman raised her eyebrows: "Why not?"
"It doesn't sound good!"
"Then what should I call you?"
"...How about you call me Sister Xiao, it sounds better."
"good!"
Mrs. Ruyi turned around again and took Xiao Baozi to an antique tea table.
"Sister Xiao, please sit down!"
"Thank you sister Ruyi..."
Xiao Baozi did not sit down, her eyes fell on a desk next to her.
There are pens, inks, paper and inkstones on the desk, as well as some writing papers!
The paper was written in extremely beautiful small regular script with hairpin flowers. Xiao Baozi couldn't appreciate the calligraphy, but she knew the words!
That’s the lyrics written by Li Chenan!
On the top piece of paper was written the song "Jiang Cheng Zi" about ten years of life and death.
Xiao Baozi's heart skipped a beat. She walked to the desk calmly, picked up the pile of paper, and suddenly asked:
"Sister Ruyi... also likes Li Chenan?"
