Chapter 102 Duan Xiaochen

The water of West Lake reflects the white sunlight, which makes people unable to open their eyes.

At noon, when the sun is so poisonous, it is the most unsuitable for cruise ships.

So at this time, there are many boats moored on both sides of the West Lake. The boatmen have gone to the nearby teahouses and restaurants to enjoy the cool, listen to books and eat melon seeds. There are very few boats still wandering in the lake.

There are very few, but there are.

A small boat was struggling to swim in the lake as if it had fallen behind.

After a long time, the boat stopped at the foot of the lonely mountain. Duan Xiaochen, who was dressed in green, jumped off the boat and hurriedly walked up the lonely mountain.

When she woke up this morning, she found that Mr. Du and Uncle Wu were not there, and they hadn't been seen until now.

She knew about Mr. Gu's disappearance. People from the Gu family came to Huxin Pavilion several times last night to inquire. Mr. Du seemed very worried.

I don't know how Mr. Gu is doing now.

She decided to go to Gushan to have a look.

Mr. Du would go to Gushan for everything and told Miss Song that he must have gone to Gushan.

The isolated mountain is densely shaded by green trees. Compared with the heat of other places, this place is simply a fairyland on earth.

When Duan Xiaochen came to Fanghe Hall, the courtyard door was unlocked, she was very familiar with it.

The yard was quiet, and in the corner, the little black she raised played very friendly with the original three white cranes, the big white and the little white.

This little heartless.

Duan Xiaochen muttered.

Stepping up to the study, she has lived in Fanghe Tang for so long, she has already been familiar with every plant and tree here, and knows that the study is Mr. Lin's favorite place to stay.

However, there was no one in the study.

It was quiet, only the pages of the book blown away by the wind swayed from side to side on the table.

Duan Xiaochen came to the desk, under the inkstone was pressing the note that Song Guichen had left in a hurry last night, picked up the note, Duan Xiaochen suddenly realized.

No wonder Mr. Du and Uncle Wu are nowhere to be seen today, they must have gone to Huzhou with Miss Song.

She felt a little envious.

Why is Miss Song so lucky, but Mr. Du is so obedient to her?

Why is this room full of books not his own?
Duan Xiaochen pinched the note.

She thought that when she was still living in Fanghetang, when she was still a student of Mr. Lin, the master would gently teach her to read "University" and "The Analects of Confucius".

She remembered something from a long time ago. At that time, she was still in the Du Mansion. There was a library in the Du Mansion called Yilan Pavilion, which was five floors high, and each floor was filled with books.

However, the Yilan Pavilion is not something that a rude girl like her can easily enter. Only during the monthly purge, she has the opportunity to change jobs with the lazy sister Ping, sneak into the Yilan Pavilion and take a peek for a while Feast your eyes on those books.

Duan Xiaochen can hardly remember the things that are more distant.

She remembered that Niangqin was a very gentle woman, she always hugged herself and gently read poems like songs.

"The reeds are green, and the white dew is frost; the so-called Iraqi people are on the side of the water."

"Guanguan Jujiu is on the continent of the river; a fair lady is a gentleman."

The clear whisper of mother is still in my ears, and the warm embrace seems to be still behind me...

However, everything is gone.

Mother is gone, Sister Ping is gone, and Master is gone.

Two drops of tears dripped on the desk, splashing two big snowflakes.

"Little friend, why are you crying alone here?"

It was Mr. Lin's voice.

Duan Xiaochen wiped away his tears quickly, and looked at Mr. Lin who was wearing a straw hat at the door.

"Master, ah, sir."

Lin Bu took off his straw hat and smiled gently: "Is Xiaochen not here?"

"Um, well, Sister Song is not here, I, I just came in involuntarily."

"No problem." Lin Bu said, "If my friend likes to read, you can read it anytime."

"Really, really? I can come to Fanghetang anytime?"

Lin Bu nodded: "Well, you can come anytime."

As he spoke, he came to the desk, saw the inkstone on the table was crooked, raised his hand and put it on the original position of the inkstone, and asked Duan Xiaochen, "When you came, what was there here?"

"no no……"

Duan Xiaochen blurted out.

Then he tightly squeezed the note in his palm, and shook his head hastily: "I just came here, and I saw the door of the study room was open, so I walked in. There is nothing here."

"That's it."

When Lin Bu came to the courtyard, the three white cranes raised their heads and croaked. The sedges around them had been eaten up, obviously no one had fed them for a while.

How could Xiaochen be so careless, even the crane forgot to feed it.

He pushed open Song Guichen's bedroom door, and there was no one inside.

"First, sir, Sister Song, maybe she went down the mountain."

"Ah."

"Sister Song is sensible, she should be back soon."

"Yeah." Lin Bu rubbed his eyebrows, "I'll go out for a while."

"Where are you going, sir?"

"Go down the mountain."

"Ah? But isn't Mister never going down the mountain?" Duan Xiaochen chased after him, "Actually, actually, Sister Song left a message..."

"is it?"

Lin Bu stopped walking outside, turned his head and looked at Duan Xiaochen encouragingly.

Duan Xiaochen lowered his head, pursed his lips, mustered up a lot of courage, then raised his head, let go of his hand, and handed the crumpled note to Lin Bu.

"I... I was impulsive and lied to Mr.

"No problem."

Lin Bu accepted the note with a smile, unfolded it, glanced at it, and nodded.

"Sir, you don't blame me?"

"What's your fault?"

"Blame me for lying to you."

"Are you lying to me on purpose?"

"I……"

Duan Xiaochen hesitated to say anything, she didn't intend to lie to Mr. Lin, but subconsciously blurted out "No", the words had already been spoken, and she wanted to take them back, but it was too late.

I had to keep hiding it.

"The angles of viewing right and wrong are different. If there is a slight difference, what you see in the end is quite different. My friend just said something unintentionally and corrected it afterwards. Why should I blame you?"

"gentlemen."

"Okay, it's hot outside, little friend, let's go inside." Lin Bu interrupted Duan Xiaochen, "Little girl always cries a lot, so be careful not to turn ugly."

Duan Xiaochen smiled "puchi", blessed himself, turned and went to the study.

Lin Bu looked at her back and sighed deeply.

Xiaochentuer is clever and lively, carefree, he can say what is on his mind, he can't hide his words at all, and all his thoughts are written on his face.

This Duan Xiaochen is sensitive and suspicious, with low self-esteem and melancholy. He thinks a lot, worries a lot, tears a lot, and his thoughts are not like that of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

Lin Bu felt it when she was still in Xiaochentuer's body.

And these two girls are so similar to their mother.

One is like a gorgeous summer flower, and the other is like a quiet autumn leaf.

The world is impermanent, good fortune tricks people.

Sighing, Lin Bu looked at the three white cranes waiting to be fed, and took the sedge with a smile, squatted on the ground, and fed them one by one.

Xiaohei and Dabai Xiaobai were still fighting tit for tat a few days ago, but today they may be starving together, but they actually fell in love with each other.

Lin Bu praised: "That's right, I'll get you some meat later on."
