Drawing Crescent Eyebrows: Alluring Zinnia with a Smile

Chapter 42

Ye Xu turned around when she heard the sound, looked at her playing with the strings with both hands, smiled sincerely, put her arms on the window sill, "Listen carefully."

Qingyou turned her eyebrows, moved her seat and brought the piano to the front of the table, tapped lightly with her slender jade fingers, and a piece of "Spring Dawn in the Jade Tower" gently and softly rippled on the side of the sinking water.

In late autumn, the air is bright, the wind is soft and the water is still, and the maple leaves and green cypresses overlap and reflect each other in the refreshing scenery.

"Wake up in the spring sleep, the breeze wants to be drunk. This song expresses the feelings of a boudoir daughter, but it's just light and quiet. How do you feel like this now?" After listening to her play, Ye Xu never thought of getting rid of the pipa. Still have such kung fu on the zither, it's just a thought, but it's groundless.

"Play this song just because of the word 'Yulou', it can be regarded as comforting Qi Ye's mind." She responded lightly, there was no intimacy in her words, but they were also gentle.

Just as he was talking, Suqin's Yinyin came out from the inside before he heard the sound, "This Lu'an tea is very hard to find. It turned out that Lord Qi hid it in a sandalwood box!"

Seeing her come out, Qingyou nodded her head as a signal, and heard Ye Xu say: "Aren't precious things always kept in sandalwood? You are confused!"

Suqin smiled slightly, "That's right, this servant is confused." As she spoke, she boiled the tea again.

Qingyou was startled secretly, not knowing what he meant.

After a long while, Suqin said again: "Qi Ye brought the concubine and master here, do you intend to stay here for a long time?"

But in this sentence, she seemed to be cautious.

Qingyou's eyebrows tightened, and she also looked at Ye Xu.

Ye Xu's expression froze for a moment, then he suddenly smiled, and said in a clear tone: "It's not necessary yet."

At that time, Qingyou didn't understand the deep meaning implied in the words of the two masters and servants. She didn't know what the word 'living for a long time' meant until the next late autumn, at the same sinking water.

She got up and walked around the room slowly, and asked Ye Xu: "Master Qi brought me here, why didn't you tell me?"

Only then did Ye Xu get to the point, and smiled lightly, "I'll go home tomorrow, I have to prepare something for my father-in-law, right?"

Qingyou was stunned for a moment, but then she was relieved, and said lightly: "I don't know that Qi Ye is still such a scrupulous person, he just wanted to bring the golden pig, what else do you need?"

Suqin laughed from the side and said: "My lord concubine doesn't know something, the seventh master has already started to prepare these when the decree of giving the marriage is issued, it's not that the slaves are boasting, the seventh master is usually not willing to order the Duke Fu to come out of the mansion It’s just that it’s about the concubine’s master, but I have to ask my servants to do it myself!” Then, he handed over a gift list to Qingyou, “My lord, please take a look, everything is fine and small, the seventh master is personally involved, The slaves don't dare to be negligent."

Qingyou took the gift list, held it in her hand but did not unfold it, sighed softly and said to Ye Xu: "Since it was prepared by Qi Ye, it is naturally something that is qualified to enter the Sixth Army Commander's Mansion, so I don't need to read it again."

Ye Xu smiled slightly, and said to Suqin: "Then you go and prepare, and bring us back to the mansion later."

"Yes, this servant obeys." Suqin blessed her body and left the house again.

Qingyou rubbed the odd acupoint outside the meridian, and said a little weakly: "Qi Ye brought me here just for this?"

"What's more..." He circled around the two harps, waved his hand, and brought out a melodious sound, "I want to ask a master, if he has a sincere heart for all the strings and bamboos here?"

Qingyou hummed in her heart, but said lightly: "Qi Ye bothered, Qingyou... still likes her old pipa."

"That's good..." Ye Xu nodded slightly, his eyes far away, "It's as it is now, very good..."

While talking, there was a gust of cool wind blowing, which only made you feel comfortable in your heart, but suddenly there was a thought, thinking that it would be great if there is such a small room above the sinking water, cool and lonely... …
