Chapter 111

The snow on Mount Canaan does not melt all the year round. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep. It is summer, and the snow is just beginning to melt. The mountain stream water mixed with broken ice flows slowly, scouring the brightly colored pebbles on both sides. The pine forest is covered with ice crystals. At a glance, it looks like the scenery of northern China.

Xiao Shao went through the plum blossom array at the foot of the mountain to the Lvyang villa at the top of the mountain.

The plum blossom array was set up by Mr. Baqi himself. There are eight rings in all. It spreads from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. No one can break the array except our disciples. Xiao Shao has been here many times, but he is familiar with it. When Fang entered the gate outside Lvyang villa, the big green haired parrot at the gate began to flap its wings and yell: "someone's coming! Someone's coming

Different from the scenery of Canaan mountain, Lvyang villa is full of birds singing and flowers fragrant, and flowers blooming, just like early spring. When Xiao shaochao walked into the villa, the repair of the huge villa was exquisite and wonderful, but there was no one. A moment later, a low voice came from the yard: "ah Shao?"

The sound is melodious like a bell, close to the ear, listen carefully, but it seems to come from far away, misty. Xiao shaochao walked into the yard. Under the pear tree, an old man with a white beard in a gray shirt was sitting at the chess table, holding a box of chess pieces in his hand.

"Master." Xiao Shao walked over to him.

The old man in grey is Mr. Baqi. Now he is in his old age. He looks like an immortal, but he has a pair of smart eyes. Without looking up, he devoted himself to studying the chess game in front of him and said, "come back from southern Xinjiang?"

"Yes." Xiao shaodao. After he came back from southern Xinjiang, he was busy dealing with all kinds of things on weekdays, but Mr. Baqi was still closed. It was only these days that he found a chance to go to mount Canaan, and it was time for Mr. Baqi to go out.

Mr. Baqi put down his chess box and finally raised his head. Mr. Baqi has eight disciples in total. Xiao Shao and Xuanli have a gentle smile, modest and full of ambition. Xia Cheng and Jiang quanyue feel that their choice is right. Xuanli had the talent to manage the world. At that time, he was now the only one in the world.

On the other side, Xia Yan is talking with Shen Rou, the eldest grandmother of the Xia family. Shen Rou looks at Xia Yan's stomach and says with a smile, "my aunt's stomach is more and more pregnant. When I was pregnant, it was not so big. I can't say it was twins."

Xia Yan's face was stiff, and he gave a bitter smile in his heart. His twin son, whose child had already died, only said that as soon as he thought about the miscarriage that night, Xia Yan would like to tear Hongying and Jiang Ruan to pieces. Although I don't know how the two pieces of silk and fish were exchanged, I'm sure it must be the hands and feet of these two people. Xia Yan's eyes twinkle slightly, smile, then let them smile, and let them cry later.

Although Shen Rou is a woman who has given birth to a child, she looks more and more beautiful and plump, which is quite a young woman's style. In this way, it set off the sallow complexion of Xia Yan, who had just had a miscarriage, as if he was ten years old overnight.

Shen Rou looks at Xia Yan, but she is also suspicious. Xia Yan should have a good life in Jiang's mansion now. How can she look so haggard. Where is the original elegant and indifferent appearance of talented women? If you think about it again, you can understand the rumor that Jiang Quan had a preference for his aunt who was born in the brothel. I don't think I can tie my man's heart. Shen Rou can't see Xia Yan's lofty and magnanimous appearance. Now she sees it, comforting on the surface, but gloating in her heart.

The girl on the other side suddenly said, "why hasn't Jiang Ruan arrived yet? Is that the way the Jiang family treats guests?" The girl was wearing a light purple crepe robe and a cloud butterfly skirt. It's a pity that she is a bit irritable. It's Xia Jiaojiao, Shen Rou's own daughter, who came from the big house of Xia family.

"I haven't received a message from my wife before, nor heard of coming to accompany her. I don't know if someone is coming. How can I treat her?" The voice rang out from the door. Several people in the room looked up and saw Jiang Ruan coming.

Xia Jiaojiao clenches her lower lip tightly and stares at Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan is wearing a simple Suzhou embroidered Yuehua brocade shirt. Her skin is better than snow, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and her eyes are amazing. Xia Jiaojiao, who had seven points of beauty, had less than 10% left by Jiang Ruan's comparison. Xia Jiaojiao is very angry. What makes her even more angry is the irony in Jiang Ruan's words. Isn't it? Once they came, they didn't post. Secondly, they never said that they wanted Jiang Ruan to accompany them. At present, the strange people are coming late, so it's unreasonable.

"Ruan'er, here you are. Jiao Jiao has wanted to see you for a long time. " Xia Yan digs the topic with a smile, but she still mutters in her heart. She thought it would take a lot of effort to invite Jiang Ruan out. She also thinks about some reasons, but she doesn't think that none of these reasons are useful. Jiang Ruan Shuang quickly agrees to come. But it's just right for her to take the next step.

Xia Jiaojiao turns her lips and doesn't care about Xia Yan's words. Shen Rou also looks at Jiang Ruan carefully. When Jiang Ruan came to Xia's house, she only thought that Jiang Ruan was a good orphan, but it was the girl who looked good at her that made Xia Jun suffer. Now she has changed into a princess of the dynasty. In the past three years, I heard that she was very popular with the empress dowager, and I think she should be rewarded with a lot of money. Shen Rou has a plan in mind. Xia Cheng intends to tell Xia Jun about Jiang Ruan. On the one hand, Xia Jun is bitter about what happened at the beginning, and has vowed to marry Jiang Ruan over the years. On the other hand, the forces behind Jiang Ruan will help him a lot if he marries him. Besides, he may have a lot of money.However, Shen Rou and Yu Ya, the second daughter-in-law of the Xia family, have never dealt with each other. Naturally, she doesn't want Xia Jun to have a good life. Shen Rou thinks that instead of taking advantage of Xia Jun, she doesn't want to take advantage of her brother. Shen Rou has a nephew in her family. Now she's at the right age to marry Jiang Ruan. If she does, she'll be considered a rich man.

Shen rouwu's good abacus, looking at Jiang Ruan's eyes, he has some strange fanaticism. Tianzhu frowned. Jiang Ruan said with a smile, "this is Madame Xia."

"Exactly. Ruan'er, I didn't expect that you would be so old in the twinkling of an eye. " Shen Rou re Luo Dao.

"Bold! I didn't salute when I saw the princess Tian Zhu drinks with a cold face, which makes Shen Rou jump.

Jiang Ruan said gently, "nothing. Madam Xia met me once. I think she was just too excited to forget it. It may as well be

This answer made Shen Rou's face red and white, white and red. When Jiang Ruan was in the ancestral hall, everyone could see clearly. Now the old story comes up again, but it's the face of the Xia family.

Xia Yan can't hang on her face, and Xia Jiaojiao is even more angry. However, she remembers her grandfather's instructions before leaving, and then she bears them down again.

Xia Yan suddenly bent down, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and retched twice. Lin Lang came over and patted Xia Yan's back and said, "madam, but you're not comfortable again?"

Xia Yan shook his head: "Xu is too stuffy in the room, and his chest is blocked." She laughed: "Jiaojiao, sister-in-law, ruan'er, why don't we go to the garden, the air is fresh outside."

Jiang Ruan looked out of the window. It was a very hot day and there was no cloud in the sky. At this time, he was not afraid to get rid of the heat. However, she said with a smile, "well, just in time, I also want to go for a walk in the garden."

Shen Rou and Xia Jiaojiao are guests, and naturally they will not refuse. The three of them got up and went to the summer garden. To be fair, although it was hot outside, Xia Yanhuai was afraid to use ice, so he had to work in the yard. The courtyard was clean and tidy. Half an hour later, someone sprinkled the cold water from the well on the stone slab. With the shade of the trees, it was cool. It's much better ventilated than the room.

A few people walked, then went to the courtyard of the small pond next to the pavilion. The pavilion is Xia Yan's most proud hand. Xia Yan once had the name of a talented woman in Beijing. After entering Jiang's mansion, he had his own yard finished. The pavilion is next to the small pond, taking the scene of "Moonlight in the lotus pond" in summer. Cool summer night, full of lotus leaves green pool, lotus delicate, moonlight such as water, the scenery elegant to the extreme. After the pavilion was repaired, Jiang Quan loved it very much. I often drink with Xia Yan in the pavilion at night, which is a group of loving couples.

In Jiang Ruan's heart, there was a silent sneer. This place was the place where Jiang Quan and Xia Yan loved each other, but it was also Zhao Mei's sad place at the beginning. When Jiang Xinzhi was a child, he once had smallpox. Zhao Mei kept him for several days and nights. When Jiang Xinzhi woke up, he asked where his father was. Zhao Mei was sad, but she was drinking and having fun with Xia Yan when she found Jiang Quan. At that time, she was a child who didn't know anything. She only looked at the happiness of Jiang Quan and Xia Yan's smile and felt her mother's tears. Looking at the pavilion, Jiang Ruan said with a smile, "the lotus leaf skirt is cut in one color, and the Hibiscus is opened to both sides of her face."

When Zhao Mei and young Jiang Ruan came to Yanhua garden, they heard that the complacent Jiang Quan said to the gentle Xia Yan. The tenderness and affection in her eyes were something that their mother and daughter had never seen before.

Xia Yan was stunned and laughed: "Ruan Er, your father likes to sing these two poems most."

Shen Rou turned her eyes and said with a smile, "if you want me to say, my aunt can really enjoy it. It's hard to find such a good place in our house with lanterns on."

Xia Jiaojiao timely interjected: "naturally, my aunt was the first talented woman in the capital. Naturally, ordinary mountain women can't match her." Xia Jiaojiao always thinks that Jiang Ruan was raised by Chuang Tzu when he was young, and she was raised by Zhao Mei when she was not versed in poetry. Jiang Ruan only did not hear, still smile Yingying, Xia Jiaojiao see this, more angry in the heart.

But Xia Yan suddenly felt sad: "it's been more than ten years. When my sister was still there, she once praised the pavilion as beautiful. Ruan'er, now that you are so old, you will soon reach the age of matchmaking. I'm afraid that when you grow up in Chuang Tzu, there will be no one to educate you. My mother wants to find a nurturing mother for you, OK

Jiang Ruan gazed at her and said with a smile, "mother, what do you mean? Isn't the nurturing mother around the Empress Dowager a mother?"

Xia Yan is a Leng, but didn't think of this one layer, a time some language plug. However, when he started, he had to go on. He grabbed Jiang Ruan's hand and gently advised: "my mother knows you are a good and smart man. But the nurturing mother in the palace teaches you the rules of the palace. You will marry in the future. Naturally, you should learn the rules of being a woman. "

Jiang Ruan looks at her with a smile, but Xia Yan is a little flustered by the smile. She suddenly widened her eyes and said in a high voice, "Ruan Er, what are you doing?"

Then, Xia Yan's body suddenly retreated, but it seemed that Jiang Ruan gave her a hard push. It happened to be facing the steps of the pavilion, and Xia Yan fell heavily under the steps."Ah With a scream, Xia Yan's lower body suddenly dyed red, and his clothes were soaked with blood.

"Jiang Ruan!" A voice full of anger and terror came from the opposite side. Jiang Ruan looked up and saw that Jiang Quan, Xia Cheng and Xuan Li were standing opposite the pavilion. Jiang Quan's eyes were sinister and angry, as if he wanted to eat her.

Jiang Ruan stroked the bracelet on his hand and raised an unidentified smile on his lips.

The tortoise put out his head.

I've caught a cold recently. I feel dizzy every day. Please keep warm. Spring is coming. Don't wear too thin all of a sudden. It's hard to catch a cold.
