The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 657 Don't be afraid of old methods, just work

It's evening.

Jiao Shun rushed back home, and Shi Xiangyun, who came out to greet him as soon as he entered the courtyard, said, "Come and see what treasures I have collected!"

As he spoke, he stretched his hand into his sleeve as if he was about to take out something, but he didn't want to make a 'huh', so he froze on the spot frowning.

"what happened?"

Shi Xiangyun has long been used to the small surprises of life that he brings from time to time, and he is full of anticipation to round his beautiful eyes. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Could it be possible that the master lost something again?"

Jiao Shun has scattered a lot of things in the past few years. For fear of capsizing the ship if he is not careful, he deliberately created a character set that is careless, and the explanation can be used as a prevarication-or it is not easy to be the king of the sea.

It also happened that he had gradually developed a relationship with Shi Xiangyun because he pretended to lose the golden unicorn.

Now that this person is set up, it can be regarded as having a beginning and an end.

"It's not all lost."

Jiao Shun scratched his head in embarrassment, took out the red and white rain flower stone from his sleeve pocket, spread it out and showed it to Shi Xiangyun, and said, "I collected two heart-shaped stones, thinking that each of us would have one, each on top Write down the words you want to say, and then exchange them with each other on Qixi Festival, who would imagine..."

Shi Xiangyun felt a little regretful when he heard it, but immediately snatched the rain flower stone, and said with a smile: "Master always gives me gifts, but this time I don't want you to give them, you just wait for my return!"

Seeing her lively, gentle, playful and heart-warming appearance, even people like Jiao Shun couldn't help feeling ashamed, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, I specially prepared two props for Minger to enter the palace to give lectures. , one of them is in the palace, and I brought the other back specially, do you want to have a look?"

"Of course!"

Shi Xiangyun got excited again, she had learned a lot of the tricks that Jiao Shun performed for Prince Yao, and immediately grabbed Jiao Shun's sleeve and said eagerly: "Can it be changed for others to see, or..."

"This doesn't seem like a trick."

"Then call everyone to watch together!"

Hearing that it is not something that can be performed for others, Xiangyun hurriedly ordered Xiangling and Cuilu to invite Xing Xiuyan and Ping'er, and ordered Qingwen to rush to the guest house...

"Look at you."

Jiao Shun hastily stretched out his hand to stop Qingwen, and said angrily, "It's almost time for dinner, and you're not afraid of disturbing Sister Lin—it's not very big, after dinner, you can take it to her to see Just voila."

Shi Xiangyun just gave up, and only gathered a whole yard of Yingying and Yanyan into the living room of the main room.

Hearing that there was another novelty item for 'coaxing the little prince' to see, most of the crowd cheered and cheered. They surrounded Jiao Shun like a moon and watched him carefully take out a strange-looking object from the box.

This thing is a bit like a miniature version of a clothes rail, but it is made of metal as a whole. There are silk threads hanging from the beams, and a dozen small balls are hung on the silk threads. These balls are divided into two types, and the singular numbers are colorful. , Even numbers are all white balls.

Everyone watched and whispered among themselves, but they still couldn't guess what this thing was for.

Shi Xiangyun waited impatiently, he hurriedly took Jiao Shun's arm and urged him coquettishly.

So Jiao Shun placed the thing against the wall again, motioning for everyone to stand back and watch, and then used the wooden board to support the small balls at the same time, and when the angle reached about 45 degrees, he suddenly pulled out the wooden board.

Those small balls that were intertwined with each other immediately began to sway, sometimes connecting into a serpentine shape, sometimes scattered, and sometimes white balls and colored balls lined up separately, and the people who were looking directly were dazzled and admired.

After a long while, those little balls gradually stopped swinging.

Seeing this, Shi Xiangyun picked up the wooden board without saying a word and pushed it again. Seeing the ball start to swing in a snake shape again, she couldn't help asking: "Master, what's going on? It didn't take much effort, why? Can it move for a long time, and still change around like a living thing?"

"I only know that it's because they are intertwined with each other, and the ropes on them are of different lengths, and the others are..."

Jiao Shun spread his arms as he spoke, expressing his helplessness.

Shi Xiangyun has already gotten used to the fact that he only knows what it is but doesn't know why, so he refocused his attention on the serpentine shape, as if he wanted to understand the principle through observation.

When the ball stopped for the second time, she subconsciously went to grab the board again, but Jiao Shun quickly held it down, and said helplessly, "We'll play later, let's eat first."

"Oh."

Shi Xiangyun reluctantly agreed, pretending to get up, and when Jiao Shun let down his vigilance, he suddenly pushed the ball with a wooden board, and immediately she pulled away and ran, laughing happily: "Giggle~ Let it go first!" Moving, anyway, it won't affect our meal."

Unsurprisingly, she ate much faster than usual.

After eating, she leaned her elbows on the table and rested her chin on her hands, staring at Jiao Shun without blinking her two watery almond eyes.

Jiao Shun shook his head and sighed, and then he also began to intensify the grilling of the rice. After a short time, he swallowed the rice and made it [-]% full. He got up and said, "Okay, go if you want."

Shi Xiangyun jumped up all of a sudden, and greeted cheerfully: "Cuilu, Xiangling, bring your things, let's go play with Sister Lin!"

Cuilu was the first to go forward, tried it carefully, and found that the 'serpentine pendulum' was not too heavy, so she picked it up and said to Xiangling, "I'll do it myself when I go, and you can hold it when I come back."

Xiangling agreed naively, and immediately put her hands together and filled her eyes with anticipation: "When Miss Lin sees this thing, maybe there will be new poems."

Cui Ling rolled her eyes speechlessly, and followed Shi Xiangyun to the door step by step.

Xiangling also hurriedly grabbed the board and chased after it.

Seeing them leaving, Jiao Shun unconsciously became distracted, not knowing whether his secret arrangements were going well.

"That's right~!"

At this time, Shi Xiangyun's clear and clear voice suddenly sounded outside the door, which scared him into a fright. When he subconsciously looked back, he saw Xiangyun holding the door frame and sticking half of his head in. He confessed with a smile, "I'll come back later Put this thing in sister Xing's room, anyone of you can play with it, just don't break it."

After speaking, he ran away like a gust of wind.

This time she didn't look back, and hurried to the guest courtyard with two servant girls, coincidentally Daiyu had just finished her meal and was washing her hands and mouth at the table.

Seeing a strange-shaped object in Cuilu's arms, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and asked angrily, "Why, are you here to offer a treasure again today?"

Although she showed disgust on her face, in fact, she didn't have the slightest dislike for Shi Xiangyun's frequent behavior of offering treasures, because Shi Xiangyun didn't mean to show off from the beginning to the end, but simply wanted to share it with her. pleasure.

"Hee hee~"

Shi Xiangyun was poked into his mind, and playfully spit a little clove at Daiyu, and took the 'snake pendulum' from Cuilu's arms, making a gesture to put it on the table.

Zijuan and Xueyan hurriedly stepped forward to remove the food, Cuilu and Xiangling rushed forward and wiped it vigorously, at least a clean place was vacated.

Shi Xiangyun seemed careless, but actually put the ornaments on the table carefully, and said triumphantly, "Sister, please take a look~"

As he spoke, he gently pushed the balls up with a wooden plank.

Lin Daiyu was also amazed to see the little ball as if it had come alive, constantly posing in various poses, but it was a pity that Xiangling stared and waited for a long time, but she didn't see any new poems from her.

When the ball stopped, Shi Xiangyun stuffed the board to Lin Daiyu: "Sister, come and try."

Lin Daiyu also tried it with her own hands, and praised Jiao Shun's wonderful idea again and again, so Shi Xiangyun was satisfied, and collapsed on Luohan's bed, rubbed his stomach and said: "It's not done, it's not done, I was in a hurry to eat, and I was also in a hurry to leave , I'm a little panicked right now."

Lin Daiyu immediately stepped forward and pulled: "You are so flustered that you dare to sit down? Get up and move around to digest food!"

"嘁~"

Shi Xiangyun curled his lips half-truthfully and said: "Sister still knows to talk about me, she always begs you and begs you, you are too lazy to move!"

"Okay, this is here to set me up? See how I deal with you!"

Lin Daiyu made a gesture to tickle Xiangyun's itch, but Xiangyun hurriedly dodged and said repeatedly: "My good sister, if you spare me, I have a good treasure here for you to see."

Lin Daiyu was worried that she would feel uncomfortable after eating, so she had no intention of making a real move, so she put her waist on her back and said, "Hurry up and offer it, if it's not a good treasure, you will be fined twice later."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, it must be a good baby!"

Shi Xiangyun talked and laughed, and carefully dug out the Yuhua Stone from his purse, first explained the purpose of the calendar, and then sighed helplessly: "It's a pity that the master lost one on the way, if not..."

"and many more!"

Lin Daiyu showed a surprised expression at this time, and immediately turned to Xueyan and said: "Xueyan, bring the chicken blood stone we picked up."

Shi Xiangyun asked for it, and put it together with his own Yuhua stone, and found that the overall shape of the chicken blood stone was similar except that it was one size larger. of?!"

"It's over there between the two gates."

As Lin Daiyu said, she suddenly snatched the bloodstone and said narrowly, "You said it belonged to your family, but you can call it to agree? If it doesn't, you have to show some other evidence, right?"

Although Shi Xiangyun knew that she was joking, he still said seriously: "Our master said, the piece that was lost is male, and this one is bigger than mine, isn't it just the ambition?"

"Yes, yes!"

Lin Daiyu clapped her hands violently after hearing this, and said with a smile: "You will only carve the word 'ambition' on it at that time, wouldn't it be too late?"

"It's the master who wanted to engrave it and give it to me."

After Shi Xiangyun carefully corrected it, he said again: "Besides, as the saying goes, what is lacking can be filled. If you really want to engrave the word 'ambition', you should also give it to Brother Bao. Our master is not short of ambition."

Hearing the word 'Second Brother Bao', Lin Daiyu couldn't help feeling a little lost.

For a while, she was still troubled by the word 'love'. In order to clear up the confusion and find the answer, she secretly tried to reawaken the relationship between Ruiguan and Ouguan, but in the end she failed.

After Ruiguan was hired, he quickly integrated into the back house, without any nostalgia for the old days; but after hearing all this, Ouguan not only didn't complain, but was really happy for Ruiguan, and even said "God's will" in this way'.

Although Lin Daiyu also knew that in the eyes of the world, the choice of the two of them could not be more normal, but she was still troubled by it.

Could it be that……

Is there really no love in this world that can break through all obstacles? !

"Sister, sister Lin?"

Seeing that Lin Daiyu suddenly became dazed, Shi Xiangyun first called twice, but nothing seemed to work, and then he stretched out his hand and shoved her on the shoulder. Then Lin Daiyu suddenly woke up, and hurriedly said: "Sorry, I was a little distracted for a while."

Shi Xiangyun only thought that she remembered all the past with Jia Baoyu again, and couldn't help regretting that he should not have taken the initiative to bring up the second brother Bao.

Immediately, he quickly changed the subject and discussed with Lin Daiyu what words should be engraved on the Yuhua Stone.

However, Lin Daiyu would definitely not overstep the bounds on such private matters, at most she would just give advice in the general direction.

The two sisters chatted for another half an hour. Seeing that it was getting late, Shi Xiangyun got up to say goodbye and leave.

After sending Xiangyun away, Lin Daiyu went back to the room alone, looked at the dark night outside the window, and sighed unconsciously.

At this time, Xueyan suddenly walked in with her head poking around, first pretending to pick out the lanterns, and then said hesitantly: "Girl, when I was going to deliver something to Miss Baoqin today, I heard someone mention you. , say yes, say yes..."

"How did you say that?"

Lin Daiyu guessed that it was probably not a good word, so she raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Now that things have happened, do people still think I'm an eyesore?"

"This……"

Xueyan was flustered for a moment, and then said embarrassingly: "I don't know if it counts or not—the two women were gossiping at the time, saying that the second wife slandered your life in front of the old lady, because the old man is about to die in February , I couldn't restrain you, that's why I caused all the disasters later, and said..."

"What else?!"

Lin Daiyu raised her brows upside down, covered her chest with one hand, supported the desk with the other, and asked through gritted teeth, "What else did they say?!"

"Also, it's better to let you stay at Jiao's house and let Uncle Jiao take charge..."

Rao knew that her second aunt had always disliked her, but Lin Daiyu never expected that she would pour dirty water on her head like this, and what was even more unexpected was that the old lady also...

If not, why didn't he mention the matter of taking her back when Sanchun came two days ago?
Thinking that after Jia Baoyu, even the old lady who loved her the most since she was a child betrayed her, Lin Daiyu only felt angina in her heart, her eyes turned black and she was about to fall.

"Girl, girl, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

Xueyan hurriedly helped her lean on the bed, took the usual pills and fed her with tea.

After a long while, Lin Daiyu's complexion gradually recovered.

Xueyan breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said: "Girl, don't worry, let me tell you, it may not be as comfortable as here, if there is another title..."

"What are you talking about?"

Lin Daiyu heard her speak without restraint, and immediately scolded: "If you dare to speak nonsense again, see if I will spare you!"

"The slave is not lying."

Xueyan gritted her teeth, and knelt down in front of the bed: "Didn't Miss Xiangyun marry Uncle Jiao because she picked up a pair of golden unicorns? Today, the girl picked up the chicken blood stone." , maybe also..."

"What nonsense!"

Lin Daiyu was annoyed: "Speaking of which, it was Zijuan who picked up this thing at that time, and she was the one who wanted to get married!"

"Aren't we all following girls?"

Xueyan poked her neck: "If you want me to say, this may be God's will. The matter of the third girl and Uncle Jiao has not yet been cleared up - besides, we are the first, why should we give up to..."

"shut up!"

Lin Daiyu stood up violently and raised her hand to strike, but seeing the snow geese neither dodging nor dodging, she still couldn't calm down, so she pointed out, "Get out!"

Xueyan hesitated for a moment, thinking that she had said almost everything she had to say, so she obediently got up and went out of the room.

After Xueyan left, Lin Daiyu sat down on the bed again.

Perhaps it was because of her grandmother's betrayal that shook her mind violently, so that even though Jiao Shun had no love for men and women at all, Xue Yan's words just now kept recurring in her mind.

Especially the phrase "this may be God's will", which is far away from the official's "God's will is so" complement each other...
