Qingxue has been in a nervous, curious and expectant mood for the past two days. Her eldest cousin, who is married to Peach Blossom Villa in Qinliu Prefecture, sent a letter a few days ago saying that she is about to give birth to a baby in ten months and will become a mother for the first time in her life. Although I was happy, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so I missed my loved ones even more. She was eagerly looking forward to Qingxue and Zimeng, Xinlan's biological sister, coming to stay with her while she was giving birth. It would be great if they could stay with her for a little longer. After all, the three sisters had been inseparable since they were children and talked about everything. Qingxue's cousin-in-law, whom she had never met before, agreed very much with this and had sent his cronies and two servants to pick them up. He expected to arrive in the next two days. In fact, Qingxue had already arrived at her aunt's house to wait. In the past few years, although the eldest cousin Xinlan got married, the second cousin would still invite Qingxue to her home from time to time to keep her company as before. The two sisters would eat and live together, go in and out together, and were as close as siblings. If they got a little bored after studying piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, they would go out for an outing nearby. The days would be as beautiful as a fleeting moment, and the mountains could be expected.

In the afternoon of this day, Qingxue and Zimeng came to the hillside to fly kites. It was the season when the grass was growing and all things were recovering. The peaches and plums on the hillside were blooming and bright, blowing in the spring breeze. Swaying. The beauty and the beautiful scenery make passers-by stop and admire it. Qingxue was flying a wild goose kite, rising precariously into the air. She felt so comfortable and relaxed. She smiled and said, "The breeze is trustworthy, and the white clouds will fly together in the end." The beauty's kite actually flew higher, almost reaching the sky, so she said with emotion: "At this time and place, the spring breeze will send you to the sky." Unfortunately, the joy is short-lived and the beauty is fleeting. Suddenly, the beauty kite The kite suddenly fell down without any warning or trace. "Piao Ling Ling, the kite string broke in February." Zimeng couldn't help pouting and sighing. "You can't keep it when it flies. Who can you turn to for news from the end of the world?" Qingxue agreed while caressing the back of her hand. At the same time, she was a little worried about her kite and unconsciously retracted the kite string in her hand. The two of them were closely following the "wild goose". From the corner of her eye, Zimeng caught a glimpse of her personal maid running all the way towards the end of the hillside. As she ran, she shouted excitedly: "Miss, my wife!" Miss, someone is here...to pick you up." Although Zimeng had already guessed, she deliberately asked: "Liandie, who came to pick us up?" "Yes, it's someone from Peach Blossom Villa who came to pick us up. You guys." "Did you hear that, Qingxue, it's my brother-in-law who sent someone to pick us up." Zimeng's voice trembled slightly because she was so happy, and she shook Qingxue's arms as she spoke. Qingxue was stunned for a moment, until the thread in her hand suddenly loosened, and the "wild goose" fell down like that, she woke up and smiled at Zi Meng, all the expectations in their hearts were and excitement are all indescribable.

After the two returned home, they began to pack their clothes and luggage. Qingxue's aunt Hua Yang gave them a lot of instructions and warned them that although they were not ladies from a famous family, they were still knowledgeable. Li Xiaojiabiyu. When you arrive at Peach Blossom Villa, you must observe etiquette and follow the rules, and you must not act arbitrarily like you would at home. The two of them thought she was too verbose, but on their faces they could only pretend to be helpful, nodding frequently, smiling and saying nothing.

When it was time for dinner, Mrs. Hua Yang enthusiastically took the most decently dressed entourage to the table. Haikuo, who was the second master's confidant, waved his hands and declined and said: "As a servant, how dare I talk to your wife and the two of you?" It's really not etiquette for a young lady to sit at the same table." "Alas, this place is no better than your Peach Blossom Villa, and everyone pays attention to the rules and regulations." She smiled kindly and said, "After all, you are a guest from afar, how can we I can't show my gratitude to the landlord." "It's still inappropriate. If the second master finds out, he will definitely blame me." Seeing Haikuo's strict etiquette, Liandie couldn't stand it, so she directly pressed him on the stool. He went up and said cheerfully and humorously: "If you don't tell us, if we don't tell you, how will your second master know? Could it be that he is some kind of clairvoyant?" Zimeng smiled after hearing this, and said to Liandie: " This girl just can't change her outspoken temper. How about this, you sit down with Haikuo, and he won't be so restrained with you as his company." "Thank you, Miss Liandie, for the seat." After that, she said generously. He sat down somewhere.

While serving Haikuo vegetables, Mrs. Hua Yang asked, "Is your uncle still unmarried?" "No," Haikuo replied casually while chewing vegetables. "If I remember correctly, he is three or four years older than my son-in-law. How come he is being compared?" "It's a long story." "Oh, then you should keep it short. Why is it like this? Mother-in-law, mother-in-law." Lian Die said happily. "Liandie", Zimeng glanced at her angrily and said with a smile to Haikuo, "Yes, my brother-in-law already has a wife and a concubine. Why is the eldest son, the eldest son, alone?" No wonder, even though the wife was the first wife and had a legitimate son, she always received little favor from her. She even took the old man to raise him when he was a child, but his father did not like him. It was not until he was crowned that the old man gradually took him around to take care of the family business. , seeing that he acted steadily during this period, the old man entrusted him with important responsibilities. After the old man unfortunately suffered from wind paralysis a few years ago, he divided the family business into two parts according to the north and south regions, and handed them over to the eldest and second master respectively. Xu It’s because the uncle has been ignored since he was a child, and he wants to prove his talents too much. Since then, he has been busy with everything and is obsessed with business, and he has no time to pay attention to the trivial matters of the love between his children. "

After listening to Hai Kuo's story, everyone felt a little sad, but Qingxue couldn't help but asked: "What about your third master? Why is he the only one who doesn't get a share of the family business?" "Well?" Hai Kuo said. He scratched his head and thought for a while and said, "Firstly, he is the youngest, and secondly, he is indifferent to fame and wealth. He only likes to write and write, and does not like to be a dog. His temperament is exactly the same as his mother." "His mother is another concubine of your old man. Right?" Hua Yang asked inquiringly. "Well, Mu Bai unfortunately contracted typhoid a few years after giving birth to the second master. Before she died, she assigned her dowry maid, the third master's mother, to the old master as a concubine, and entrusted the second master to her to raise. Mu Zhou lived up to her trust and valued her second master a hundred times more than her own son. It was not until she saw him getting married and establishing a career that she put an end to her worries. Her body and bones gradually weakened, and she passed away two years ago. After leaving, now only the old man is left." Hai Kuo said with some seriousness. "I am so jealous of beauty." Hua Yang said with emotion. Qingxue also praised thoughtfully: "This Mu Zhou family has such a profound understanding of righteousness, her biological son must also be a gentle and gentle gentleman." Zimeng touched her elbow and blinked. She said with a smile: "Isn't there someone who always appreciates the most noble and noble character like a gentleman?" Hearing this, Qingxue suddenly turned red with embarrassment. She looked at Hua Yang for help and said coquettishly: "Auntie, please take care of Zimeng. She hasn't learned well lately. She makes fun of me when she has nothing to do." Zimeng argued unconvincingly: "Who doesn't learn well? I am sincerely thinking about you, Ru Ruo You and the third master share the same interests and create a good story, wouldn't it mean that you can be with your sister day and night?"

Hearing this, Qingxue couldn't help but feel more and more ashamed. Just when she was about to defend herself, Hua Yang rushed to the forefront and asked: "What about Meng'er? Don't you want to accompany your sister day and night and support each other? "While everyone was slightly dazed and confused, Liandie asked wisely: "Madam, when you say this, you must be hoping that the young lady will also marry into Peach Blossom Villa, right?" Hua Yang took a bite of the dish and smiled. language. "Then madam, who would you like to be your second son-in-law? I guess it must be the prudent man, right?" "Oh~ how can you tell?" Hua Yang asked with raised eyebrows. "The second master is already your eldest son-in-law. Needless to say, the third master's character is what my cousin appreciates the most, so the only one left is the most suitable candidate." Liandie said with a quick smile. "This girl is becoming more and more like a ghost!" Hua Yang said half in praise and half in anger. After hearing this, Zimeng lowered her head in thought and said nothing, not saying a single word to express her attitude. However, Qingxue felt a little embarrassed on her face, so she directly attacked the instigator: "It's really more and more insignificant. He actually openly discussed your young lady's life events, and said the right thing to a son-in-law and the right thing, the girl's family Are you ashamed?" After hearing this, Liandie stuck out her tongue first, then shrugged and said, "Okay, why don't I stop talking?" She noticed that there seemed to be something on the sea surface next to her. He was laughing at him, so he angrily turned his anger on him, "What are you laughing at? Are you gloating about others' misfortune?"

Haikuo shook his head and said with an honest smile: "I think your place is warm and harmonious, and everyone is kind and easy-going. It's not like the solemn and solemn atmosphere of Peach Blossom Villa, where everyone is cold and distant. It's not interesting to think about it." I think you are in the midst of blessings and don’t know how to be blessed.” Liandie said to him with an unconvinced look, “I heard that in Peach Blossom Villa, there are not only many pavilions, strange mountains and rocks, but also a huge peach forest. It stretches for ten miles, and the scenery is incomparable. When spring comes, it is as beautiful as a fairyland on earth, not to mention the food and clothing expenses!" "Well, the Ten Miles of Peach Grove is the place where my second uncle often visits. Because Mubai loved peach blossoms, the old man specially asked people to plant this peach grove. There are countless rare varieties of peach blossoms in it. The villa has since been renamed Peach Blossom Villa. As for its original name, people have gradually forgotten it. After hearing this, Qingxue couldn't help but said with emotion: "Perhaps this is the so-called thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, thousands of miles of dust, one emperor and one courtier." "Oh, look at our Qingxue, not only is she beautiful, but she is also rare. He is so talented, if he goes to Peach Blossom Villa, why won't he be favored by others?" Mrs. Hua Yang looked at Qingxue and said with a heartfelt smile. When Qingxue saw everyone's eyes turned to her, she quickly put down her chopsticks and gently said: "I'm full, please use it slowly." After saying that, she ran out with a blushing face. Seeing this, Mrs. Huayang said to the absent-minded Zi Mengxiao: "Meng'er, come and take a look. That child Qingxue must be shy." "Oh, really." Zi Meng agreed while saying He followed with a dull face. "What's wrong with Meng'er? She looks like she's out of her mind!" Hua Yang said with a puzzled look on her face. "I'm going to Peach Blossom Villa tomorrow. The young lady must be too excited and nervous to be so distracted." Liandie nodded seriously. "You are not talking about yourself, right?" Hua Yang said and smiled at Haikuo opposite her. Liandie did not dare to be disrespectful to her wife, so she could only make a face at Haikuo to express her dissatisfaction.

The night was as cold as water, and the two sisters lay in bed without any sleep. Qingxue put her hands behind her head and asked casually: "Zimeng, do you think Peach Blossom Villa is really that beautiful and good?" Zimeng poked her forehead and said angrily: "Call me second cousin." "Oops. , Wouldn’t that call you old? After all, you are only a few months older than me.” “A few months older is also older than you, so don’t make excuses for me. When we get to Peach Blossom Villa, you will be like this too.” There are no rules?" "What's the matter? Didn't Cousin Xinlan say that my cousin-in-law has always been courteous to others, and even if we do anything that goes against the rules, he will tolerate it." "Look what you said, in the manor, Is it just your cousin and cousin-in-law who live there? Others may not matter, but Shui Hanshuang is not an easy person to get along with!" "Shui Hanshuang? Cousin-in-law, the wife of a royal family?" Hmm." Zimeng sighed softly, looking a little lonely. "Cousin Xinlan will soon give up her mother to her son, but she has nothing to show for it so far. Why do we need to look at her face!" Qingxue said nonchalantly, and then she couldn't help but yawned. "Having said that, my sister is soft-hearted and always thinks that peace is the most important thing. I'm worried that she will suffer a big loss sooner or later..." "Don't look for trouble. Cousin Xinlan will definitely be blessed. ", she changed the subject and asked, "I heard that my cousin-in-law is often called the reincarnated Pan Lang. Is it true?" The speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional. When she thought of her brother-in-law, Zimeng's face couldn't help but smile slightly. reddish. "After such a long time and we only met once, I can't remember clearly." She replied against her will. "Isn't it? You will forget Pan Lang's appearance again?" "Sister is just a concubine he kept. She doesn't need three matchmakers and six hires, so she can't be an elegant person. He showed up not long after the wedding day, and each of them A quick glance..." As she spoke, Zimeng found that Qingxue beside her had fallen asleep at some point. She suddenly felt angry, funny, and a little relieved. She almost couldn't hide her thoughts: Although It was a quick glance, but it was already engraved in my heart. She closed her eyes silently in her mind, and what kept appearing in front of her eyes was that handsome and extraordinary face that made people forget to see ordinary things...

Early the next morning, Qingxue and Zimeng took Liandie, and set off in a carriage with the two servants of Peach Blossom Villa and Haikuo. Hua Yang stood by the roadside and waved goodbye to them, and the morning light shrouded in light smoke shone. Her face looked even more kind and kind. The carriage drove slowly and hurriedly along the way, and finally arrived at Peach Blossom Villa at dusk on the fourth day. This journey made Qingxue feel particularly mixed. She was already a little motion sick, and the carriage kept bumping on the mountain road. She felt like her stomach was churning, but when she thought about the majestic sight she was about to see, I can't help but yearn for the ten-mile peach forest. And what kind of romantic figure is her cousin-in-law who lives in legend? It would be better to see how talented he is in both civil and military affairs, and how handsome and suave he is.

While Qingxue was thinking wildly, she suddenly heard Liandie shouting: "Here we are, miss, cousin. We have finally arrived at Peach Blossom Villa." Qingxue quickly shook her head gently, reminding herself to take back her thoughts. Mengzi unconsciously held Qingxue's hand tightly, as if seeking some encouragement and courage. After the group got off the carriage, they cheered up and walked slowly into the manor. They saw that the manor was indeed full of pavilions, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, and countless strange mountains and rocks paired with exotic flowers and plants. It was a picturesque scene. Just like the north and south of the Yangtze River, they were mesmerized by the sight of Qingxue. Not long after walking, they suddenly smelled the fragrance of flowers, and they couldn't help but quicken their pace. At this moment, they suddenly saw thousands of peach trees, decorated with pink and white flowers, along the green fields, and they were caught off guard. caught the eye. There are also wisteria trees with astonishing fragrance in the middle. Such an intoxicating fragrance and such magnificent beauty cannot be described in words for a moment. Zimeng said in admiration: "It's really as beautiful as a fairyland on earth, don't you think so, Qingxue?" "It's like a fairyland on earth, like a paradise on earth, it's so beautiful." Qingxue said as she closed her eyes and indulged in the beautiful scenery in front of her. middle.

"Oh my god, this is truly the most beautiful place I have ever seen since I was a child. It deserves to be the famous Peach Blossom Villa." Liandie shouted in a fuss, causing Haikuo to laugh and laugh. I saw her jumping and running forward, and soon she was in a ten-mile peach forest, lingering among the flowers like a butterfly, so happy that she forgot herself. Fortunately, Zi Meng was still awake at this time and hurriedly called out: "Liandie, come back quickly. Let's go see my sister first. My sister must be impatient at the moment." So, under the leadership of Hai Kuo, they walked through the flowers. After walking for a long time in Duliu Land, we came to a pavilion called "Lanxu Pavilion". The courtyard looked very solemn and elegant, and the layout was low-key and soft, which was quite consistent with the temperament of its hostess. "Qingxue, Meng'er, is that you?" A pregnant woman in the house was helped out by the maid. I saw that her belly was very high and it was difficult to move around, but she could still see her slender and graceful figure before, and her gentle and quiet face looked radiant, filled with the joy and beauty of being a mother for the first time. As soon as Qingxue saw Xinlan, she immediately stepped forward to hold her arm and said with a sweet smile: "Congratulations, cousin Xinlan, you are going to be a mother soon. Now Zimeng and I are here to keep you company." , I will accompany you to wait for the birth, and you will no longer have to worry." She touched Xinlan's swollen belly and continued to smile happily, "I can't help but be happy when I think that my little nephew is about to be born." "Look what you said, he must be my little nephew." Xinlan caressed her pretty face lovingly and said with a slow smile, "We haven't seen each other for a few years, but our Qingxue looks more and more beautiful in the future. I don’t know how many young masters I’m going to charm!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present laughed in agreement. Qingxue, who was standing aside, had already turned red to her neck. She had no choice but to hide behind Zimeng and cover her face and said: "Are you two sisters colluding? , you are making fun of me all the time, and if you continue like this, I will ignore you." "You are still so easily shy, okay, let's not talk about this anymore." After Xinlan said this, she looked at each other and smiled, Zimengla He held her hand and asked with concern: "Sister, how are you feeling lately? How good is your appetite, how well you sleep, are you tired with a big belly?" "Thank you for your concern, Meng'er. I'm doing well, actually. Are you exhausted from running all the way?" "Aren't you exhausted?" Qingxue posted up again and said charmingly, "But seeing that cousin Xinlan you are well and healthy, it's worth it no matter how tired you are. "It's such a sweet little mouth." Xinlan said while gently pinching her white and rosy cheeks. "Where is my brother-in-law? Is he good to you? You are pregnant now, so he should be very considerate of you, right?" A hint of loneliness fell on her face, and she quickly smiled and said to the two sisters: "He is very considerate of you, right?" I have always loved him very much, and by the way, I will take you two to see him after dinner."

Who would have thought that after dinner, Qingxue would sneak out alone without anyone noticing. Several maids searched around but could not find her, so Xinlan had no choice but to let her go. So, she took Zimeng to Dongli Tower to meet the second master of the Mu family. Her husband Mu Qianfan, who happened to be the most noble wife of the wife, was also present, and they took advantage of the opportunity to exchange pleasantries. Over here, Qingxue wandered around the huge villa for a long time, and finally followed the scent of wisteria flowers and found the peach forest. It turned out that she was thinking about her paradise. At this moment, she spread her arms and rotated her body, taking a deep breath and smelling the fresh and sweet air in the spring night peach garden. Turning around, something suddenly fell out from her waist. It turned out to be a pot of peach blossom wine that she had secretly collected during the dinner. This wine gave her a wonderful idea: "Why not sit on the tree and taste the fine wine?" , looking at the spring scenery in the garden, isn’t it one of life’s great pleasures!” After she made up her mind, she picked a tall wisteria tree and climbed up with both hands and feet, presumably her posture would not be good. "A cat is still light." She secretly rejoiced and found a suitable branch to lie down on, then opened the wine bottle in her hand and drank to her heart's content. "It's really a good wine." After just two sips, she suddenly felt the fragrance lingering on her lips and teeth. She began to drink more openly, and soon she felt that her whole body was a little light. When she leaned on her limp body and looked down, she saw a unique scene: the peach blossoms in the night looked shadowy, hazy and shy. From time to time, the spring breeze blew and rolled up countless petals. They flew around in the air for a while and then slowly fell down. It was really full of fallen flowers. The sky is full of reds and greens. The wisteria flowers swaying gently in the wind are dancing like purple elves. They are so beautiful that people are fascinated by them.

This situation made her inspired by poetry, so she improvised a poem "Like a Dream", and she slowly chanted: "I always remember the early spring in the peach forest, I am so drunk that I forget the way home... After drinking, I returned to the pavilion late, and I missed it." Into the depths of the purple flowers... hanging and swaying, like elves dancing." After reciting the poem, she took a few more sips of peach blossom wine. At this time, she caught a glimpse of a pavilion not far away. It was very exquisite and unique, as carefree and ethereal as a fairy mountain pavilion. This reminded her of a poem: "Mountain springs flow around the steps, and thousands of peach blossoms reflect the small building. I haven't gotten up yet while reading Taoist books, and I'm combing my hair under the crystal curtain..." "It used to be difficult to deal with water, but Wushan is not a cloud. I looked back lazily at the flowers, half as a Taoist and half as a king." Suddenly, Qingxue seemed to hear something under the tree. There was a man's voice, and she couldn't help but wonder: "What's going on? I must be a little drunk." She shook her head and continued to sing to herself, "Seeing the willows flying, I'm drunk on the peach blossoms. . The fragrant breeze blows through the cabinet, and the dusk rain falls one after another behind the heavy door." "I am afraid of dusk and dusk again, how can I not be in ecstasy if I am not in ecstasy. The marks of new cries press the marks of old ones, and the heartbroken person remembers the heartbroken person." He had just harmonized with the voice of the poem with her. It appeared again, and this time Qingxue heard it really clearly.

"Who is under the tree?" She asked as she turned back to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, her foot slipped and her whole body lost its center of gravity and fell backwards. "Oh, this is terrible!" Qingxue secretly cried out in her heart and closed her eyes in fear. Fortunately, the man standing under the tree had quick eyesight and quick hands, and hurriedly opened his arms and caught her firmly after she fell. "It's strange, why it doesn't hurt at all, but it still feels soft." Qingxue thought to herself, while slowly opening her eyes and looking up, she saw a strange man appearing in front of her. I saw that he had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. He looked majestic and handsome. He was dressed in white and had an air of immortality. Qingxue felt unbelievable about the scene in front of her, and couldn't help but murmured: "Am I too lost in my soul to wander, how could I see my immortal brother?" After hearing this, the man smiled and asked softly with concern: " Girl, are you okay?" He gently put Qingxue down and looked at her carefully. He saw that she was wearing a sky-blue fairy skirt, with blue soft smoke tied into an elegant bow around her waist. , a silk-like thick black hair is delicately rolled up, with a lavender plum blossom hairpin inserted diagonally on it. Her skin is as crystal clear as snow, she is pure and unadorned, her brows are furrowed and her eyes are autumnal. Her face has both the naughty look of an elf and a clear and calm attitude, which is truly refined to the extreme.

"Dare I ask Brother Immortal, were you talking to me and Shi just now?" Qingxue blinked and asked charmingly. "Yes, I was lucky enough to hear the girl's improvised dream order." The man in white nodded. Hearing this, Qingxue's face became even hotter. She bit her red lips and said shyly, "I'll make you laugh." "How could it be so? In my opinion, the story was quite artistic. She was so drunk that she forgot about her way back... mistakenly Entering the depths of the purple flowers, you are like an elf dancing. In my opinion, with your peach-blossom face at this moment, you really look like a peach-blossom elf." His dreaming eyes tightly wrapped around Qingxue's face, and he fell in love for a moment. The snow felt like falling into the clouds, the flower moon, or the dream... "Girl, are you a little drunk? How about I take you back?" Just when Qingxue was drunk and hazy, the man in white hurriedly Call her softly. "Well... At this moment, I just feel weak and weak all over. How can I go back?" Qingxue said softly, half drunk and half awake. "Yes, what should we do? How about I go find two servants and take the girl back?" The man in white pretended to be very confused. "Wouldn't it be troublesome to go back and forth like this?" Qingxue rubbed her sleepy eyes and said a little bit shamelessly, "Brother Immortal, you look at how powerful you are, you should not be able to trouble you to carry me all the way back. Right." The man in white couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and his smile turned even more handsome. Qingxue looked at him blankly, and couldn't help but wrap her hands tightly around his neck. As a result, the man in white had no choice but to pick her up and asked softly: "Excuse me, which mansion does the girl live in? Why have I never seen you before?" "I have never seen you either. Ah, could it be that you are really a banished immortal from the sky?" She tilted her head, smiled and chanted happily, "Slender clouds make tricks, flying stars spread hatred, silver and silver are far away in darkness. As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win. There are countless people in the world." After chanting, Qingxue couldn't help but marvel at her own fearlessness. It seemed that the pot of peach blossom wine must be at work. What should I do? She felt a little rude, so she simply closed her eyes tightly to hide the panic in her heart. With shame on the face.

How could the man in white notice his daughter's family's little thoughts? He pondered for a moment and then chanted: "The east wind blows thousands of flowers on the trees at night, and even blows them down, and the stars are like rain... People have searched for him a thousand times, and suddenly they look back. , but that person is there, in the dimly lit place." After reciting the poem, he realized that the peach blossom elf was getting more and more sleepy at this moment, so he had to stop and gently shake her in his arms: "Girl, don't sleep. , you haven't told me where you live yet?" "Lan, Lanxuge, cousin Xinlan..." she muttered with her eyes narrowed. "My guess was indeed good. You are the pretty little cousin that Xinlan often mentioned." The man in white smiled to himself. It turned out that he was Qingxue's cousin-in-law Mu Qianfan. Seeing that there was still a long way to go back to Lanxu Pavilion, he put Qingxue down first and then carried her on his back again, so that both of them could feel more relaxed. Who would have expected that the cousin who had missed the meeting just now would meet him in this way in Taolin? This cousin Qingxue is really both pretty and refined, yet charming and cute. It seems that Xinlan is not exaggerating. Qianfan thought about it and couldn't help turning his head to look at her. Unexpectedly, because he was too close, his mouth accidentally kissed Qingxue's charming cheek. He pursed his lips, smiled and said softly: "Fortunately, the Peach Blossom Fairy is already asleep, otherwise she would have blamed me for being frivolous to her." "Everyone has been searching for him for thousands of times... The Peach Blossom Fairyland, but that person is here, a phantom. Heavy place...Brother Immortal..." Hearing that she was still making up impromptu poems in her dream, Qianfan couldn't help but feel more admiration for her, and unconsciously held her on his back tighter, which he had never done before in his life. Such an indescribable feeling, the corners of his thin mouth raised slightly, and his smile was so clear...

"Is Qingxue okay?" Xinlan asked Zimeng while lying on the bed. "It's okay, that ghost is probably just greedy." Zimeng smiled and climbed onto the bed. "I thought I could talk to you two all night long tonight, but she was so drunk." "Isn't it the same with me accompanying you?" Zimeng took her hand and said affectionately, "Hurry up. Tell me, does your brother-in-law value you more? He must be considerate, right?" After hearing this, Xinlan lowered her head and said softly: "My life is as cheap as a willow, how dare I have extravagant hopes? Just settle down and settle down." "Is Shui Hanshuang giving you a hard time?" "I've always behaved myself, and I'm very respectful to her, and she can't find anything wrong with me," Xinlan said thoughtfully, "But as a concubine, it is inevitable to be humble and dependent on others, so I don't want you and Qingxue to follow in my footsteps." After hearing this, Zimeng also said with emotion: "I remember when I was young, I didn't care about others. The three sisters in the world always say that when they get married in the future, they must marry in the same place, so that we can be together day and night." Xinlan nodded and said in agreement: "Even if we can't marry in the same place, we still hope that our husbands can be together. The three of us sisters are allowed to get together from time to time. If he dares not to agree, we will divorce him directly." After that, the two of them looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

"You are so young and don't know what it's like to be sad, but now it seems like it's just a dream." Zimeng sighed and said with emotion. "It's not just an idle dream. After I finish my confinement, I will introduce you and Qingxue. Anyway, my uncle and brother-in-law are not married yet. Your two's looks are enough..." Xin Xin Lan said with a half-serious smile. "Sister, why are you..." Zimeng was so embarrassed that she hid her face in the quilt. "I'm serious, and I'm not making fun of you. Don't you two want to stay in Peach Blossom Villa, take care of each other, and advance and retreat together with me?" "Don't ask me, I... don't know anything." "Could it be that you Already have your heart together? Tell your sister who the person in your heart is, okay?" Xinlan gently opened the quilt, looked at her and asked softly. Facing her sister's concerned gaze, Zimeng was a little flustered and hurriedly defended herself: "No, not really. I don't want to be like you. I can only obey the orders of my parents and the matchmaker when getting married. I want to control myself. fate." After saying that, he got up quickly, got out of bed and walked out. After walking a few steps, he turned back to her and said slowly: "I'm not the only one who has this thought... Qingxue is so high-minded. How can you be so arrogant and let yourself be manipulated by others and resign yourself to your fate?" "Be at the mercy of others and resign yourself to your fate..." After hearing this, Xinlan couldn't help feeling uneasy and repeated this sentence in a low voice. "It doesn't matter whether you marry far or near, whether you are a wife or a concubine. As long as you love that person, you will not be afraid of status and distance, because these are not obstacles." Zi Meng said firmly, and then He turned around and left, leaving Xinlan leaning on the bedside in a daze...

The next day, Qingxue, who was still hungover, actually slept until midnight. She still stayed on the bed and refused to get up, muttering from time to time: "The Fairyland of Peach Blossoms... There are so many phantoms..." With sleepy eyes, she I vaguely remembered the wonderful encounter in Shili Peach Grove last night. There was a fairy brother who seemed to fall from the sky. Not only was he angry and angry, but he was also extremely gentle and approachable. He said that he looked like a peach blossom, and in his eyes, he looked like a peach blossom elf. He also recited "The Green Jade Case" by Marry Xuan Jushi for himself: People searched for him thousands of times, but suddenly looking back, he was there, in a dimly lit place. All of this was simply unbelievable, like a lingering dream. At this moment, Qingxue just hoped that she would not wake up, so that she could sleep in it forever. Just like that, by the time she reluctantly got up and finished washing, it was almost dusk outside. While she was fixing her makeup in the mirror, there was suddenly a burst of hurried and chaotic footsteps in the main hall, and she heard a group of servants and maids calling respectfully in unison: "Second Master." Second Master? Yes, because I was playful last night, I secretly went to Taolin to drink, but I didn't go to see my cousin-in-law. It was really rude to think about it. Qingxue thought this in her heart, and her hands moved faster. She put off her makeup and straightened her clothes, and then planned to go out to apologize to her master. She walked out of the room and saw her cousin-in-law with his back to her at the moment. Looking from behind, he was dressed in plain clothes, with straight black hair, and a tall, slender but not rugged figure, like an eagle in the night. Leng Ao Qing Qing and arrogant. Qingxue's heart was beating violently for some reason, and she always felt that the figure from behind seemed familiar.

Xinlan, who was following the second master, hurriedly waved to Qingxue and said with a smile: "Come and meet your cousin-in-law." "Qingxue has met my cousin-in-law." Qingxue leaned over and saluted Qianfan Yingying before raising her head. As soon as I came, I bumped into his bright starry eyes. "Brother Immortal?" Qingxue couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice, and her mind suddenly went blank. "Qingxue, what's wrong with you?" Zimeng asked in confusion. "You were drunk in Taolin last night. Fortunately, your brother-in-law found you by passing by and carried you all the way back. Don't you remember?" "Really?" , is there such a thing?" Qingxue said casually. "You, when you first arrived, you traveled so far alone, and you were so drunk. You were too willful. You must have forgotten all your aunt's instructions to you." Xinlan scolded, pretending to be angry. . "I just can't bear to live up to the spring beauty of the ten-mile peach forest." Qingxue said softly and melancholy. "Okay, I know you are a person of temperament. Su Xi likes to be at ease." Xinlan couldn't bear to blame after hearing this, and couldn't help but smile pitifully. "Brother-in-law is coming to have dinner with us tonight, and we can discuss how my sister will prepare for the birth." Zimeng said happily, pulling Qingxue towards the restaurant. As Qingxue walked, she looked back at Qianfan, but saw that he was not squinting, only talking to Xinlan, so she couldn't help but look away in loneliness, feeling confused and confused. Little did he know that the next second, Qianfan stared at her figure wantonly for a long time, his heart agitated.
