"Yes."

Ye Mengqiu's eyebrows were already furrowed unconsciously as the fingers supporting the case were exerted slightly, "Recently, you should pay more attention to your surroundings, and ask the disciples in the village to be more vigilant, in case someone makes trouble secretly."

Ye Hui breathed a sigh of relief after the Ye family brothers left the study, "Why is father's face so ugly, what's wrong with that knife?"

"Ao Shuang Dao." Ye Ying looked at the falling flowers in front of the court, her clear eyes narrowed slightly, "I'm afraid it's someone from Ba Dao Villa."

Ye Hui was startled, unable to recover for a long time.

When it comes to the history of Cangjian Villa, everyone in the Jianghu will mention the incident that was talked about ten years ago.The sword is a gentleman, and the sword is the overlord. There are many people dancing swords and swords in the rivers and lakes. Therefore, the Tibetan Sword Villa in the south of the Yangtze River and the Badao Villa in the North have always been holy places in the hearts of many people who worship martial arts. The place has always been in a hostile position from the start.

On the second day of February in the third year of Jinglong, it was supposed to be the day when the Ba Dao Order came to Ba Dao Villa, but on that day, all the knights in the rivers and lakes, regardless of whether they were in the south or the sea, received an invitation card for a hidden sword, and the time happened to be before they received the Ba Dao Order. an hour.Ye Mengqiu held the first famous sword meeting as a reward for meticulously refining the sword, and this day was also the day of the routine sword raising meeting of Badao Villa. Badao Villa is a century-old famous family. It seems like hitting a stone with an egg.

However, there is no basis for victory or defeat. No one knows who will rise or fall. The world is always unpredictable. Back then, Badao Villa did not have a famous sword, and Cangjian Villa officially proclaimed its rise in the world because of a "Royal God" sword.Since then, there have been many conflicts between the hidden sword disciples and the Ba Dao disciples, but because the two places are far apart, it is unlikely that any major incidents will occur.

Now the people from Badao Villa chose to come to the West Lake on the day of the Famous Sword Conference. Could it be that...

In the next few days, prominent people from all walks of life gathered in Hidden Sword Villa one after another. Ye Hui behaved calmly and politely, and followed his father to welcome guests. Ye Ying, the eldest son, was on the contrary, enjoying a leisurely life, reading books in Luomei Residence every day. flower.The rumors in the village spread quietly again, and by the time they reached Gu Xinlan's ears, the taste had already changed, full of disappointment and contempt for the young village owner's incompetence.

"Those snarky guys know how to gossip because they don't do things honestly." Gu Xinlan was really annoyed after hearing this, "They don't understand the difficulties of the young owner!"

Jing Shu was habitually lying on the window sill looking at the light rain outside, when she heard this, her dark eyes turned and she continued to be silently in a daze.A bright yellow color different from emerald green danced on the branches, and two or three crisp warblers caught that quiet gaze.

The thick clouds cover the sky, and the fine rain falls continuously, vividly interpreting the four words "continuous".Jingshu looked at the yellow shadow bouncing back and forth on the branch, and her anxious cry fell into her ears, her shallow red lips curled up, and she uttered a clear word: stupid.

"Eh?" Gu Xinlan, who was lying on the bed and sighed, heard her voice, "What?"

Jing Shu pursed her lips, jumped off the bed with fluttering legs, opened the door and walked out.The emerald green skirt flashed across the vermilion corridor, ran to the eaves closest to the tree, stared at the flustered birds in the rain with dark eyes, until those tiny eyes found the little girl standing under the eaves .

"Come." Jing Shu stretched her hand into the world outside the eaves, and the cold rain fell on her arms, bringing a sense of comfort. She waved to the birds who couldn't find a place to shelter from the rain on the tree, and the latter seemed to be watching Like a savior, he stumbled from the branch and fell into her cupped palm.

Suddenly, the wind that passed through the court blew up damp water vapor and patted her face, flapping her fine eyelashes, Jingshu closed her eyes subconsciously, but there was a tremor in her palm, and the wet ball of bird was rustling in the wind Trembling, she cried pitifully a few times, causing Jingshu to narrow her bright eyes.

"stupid."

As if she could understand Jingshu's words, the little bird that had nestled obediently in her palm earlier flew out with a whoosh, and landed in the corner of the corridor, revealing two small eyes, chirping and protesting endlessly.

"Just stupid."

The tiny claws scratched back and forth on the wooden floor. The despised little guy was very irritable, but Jing Shu still thought it was stupid without changing his expression.

The boy sitting quietly in the room helplessly put down his book amidst the chaotic birdsong, signaled the maid who wanted to go out to stop her to silence, and walked outside quietly.

In the corridor behind the study, a girl in a smoke-green sarong squatted with her knees hugged, her jet-black hair tied behind her head by a green ribbon into a braid, hanging down from her thin shoulders.The wet yellow bird jumped angrily in front of her, splashing the water stains on its wings.

In the direction where Jing Shu turned her back, Ye Ying stood by the wall, looking at the lively birds in front of her, her small round eyes reminded him of those shiny black eyes a few days ago, and the corners of her lips pursed softly .

The wind under the eaves blew the back of Jing Shu's head slightly, her pupils that were staring at the bird suddenly dilated, she glanced around the corner behind her, and the young man in fresh clothes came into her eyes, she hurriedly patted her knees and ran away.

Qing Juan's eyes froze for a moment, looking at the direction Jing Shu was running away from, he was a little lost. If Zhuang Zhong's disciple avoided him because of his father's neglect, it would be fine, even such a young child...

Ye Ying's sighed slightly in her heart, but there was a bird's song in the wind. She raised her indifferent eyes slightly, and saw that Jing Shu who had just run away somehow came back, and the bird that had quarreled with her before stopped at the ground. On the shoulders, four dark eyeballs poked out cautiously from the corners to look at him.

When his mind was swaying, he and Jing Shu looked at each other like this, those tight cherry lips were about to open and close, as if they had something to say, but they were held back by the master forcefully.

He probably wanted to ask if the person who knocked down Gu Xinlan was caught.

It's just that there are as many people in Manlong Town as a cow's hair, if the Ba Dao disciple had something wrong last time, he might not show up openly in the near future.If I tell the little girl about this, I'm afraid she will be disappointed or unhappy.Ye Ying turned away the brilliance in her eyes, simply sat down on the floor in the vermilion corridor and did not respond, but raised her head and listened quietly to the rain outside the eaves.

The breeze was refreshing, and the pattering rain gathered a layer of mist, covering the green and red courtyard.The dark eyes secretly looked at the boy with closed eyes, the sideburns that were blown away by the wind gently brushed along his slender neck, and the five-petal red plum bloomed on the smooth forehead, adding a heartbeat to the boy's handsome face. beauty.

Little steps moved to Ye Ying's side little by little, Jing Shu blinked, and was about to get closer to look more carefully when she saw her drooping pupils suddenly lift up, her calm water-like eyes clearly reflected her enlarged version. small face.The little girl was startled suddenly, and she was about to jump back reflexively, but someone pressed her shoulders and held her in place.

Realizing that she was being cheated, Jing Shu immediately raised her beautiful eyebrows, and glared at Ye Ying angrily, how could this person be so good-looking!

Ye Ying, who was completely unaware that she had "seduced" Jingshu who was hiding in the corner, looked at the little girl with displeasure written all over her face, "Sit."

Stamping her feet angrily, Jing Shu had no choice but to squat down with her face pouted and her knees hugged.

She laughed at her childish movements, and when the corners of her lips were curled up, she seemed to have caught her eyes from the corner of her eye. If the little girl found out that he was smiling, he might be stared at him angrily for a long time.

Fortunately, Jing Shu seemed to be angry and ignored him. Ye Ying saw that she was sitting obediently and did not look like she was going to jump up and run away, so she withdrew her hand, and looked at the rain outside the eaves with her clear eyes. The fallen petals are in a trance.

The little girl wasn't quite at ease at first, her eyes rolled around, and she glanced at the handsome side face, trying to sneak away when he was distracted, but her eyes hit a pool of cold light, which was unadulterated. Any human fireworks.The light-colored cherry lips moved, and suddenly she stopped thinking and sat obediently beside Ye Ying.

When Ye Ying came back to her senses, she saw Jing Shu just looking over, with a slight warmth overflowing from Qinghan's eyes, "Why did you run away when you saw me?"

Hugged into a ball with her knees in her arms, Jing Shu gritted her teeth, and it took a long time to spit out two words, "angry."

Ye Ying was taken aback, for a moment he couldn't think of where Jing Shu's anger came from, and secondly, she was finally willing to speak to him...

Jing Shu pursed her lips tightly, as if she realized that she had accidentally slipped her tongue, and her eyes were full of annoyance.Even though she was still young back then, she still remembered this person, the boy with flowers on his forehead.

When Ye Ying left six years ago, she thought she would just leave for a short time, but she never thought that after so many years of cold weather and summer, she would not come back, so Jing Shu decided to ignore this man in a fit of anger.If it wasn't for catching the person who bumped into Gu Xinlan last time, she wouldn't obediently follow Ye Ying to the study to paint!

Seeing Ye Ying's puzzled expression, she became even more angry, annoyed again and again, until finally Jing Shu didn't know whether she was annoyed by Ye Ying or herself, and forced herself to hold back the words when she reached her mouth , the flushed face almost held back internal injuries, and finally he just pursed his mouth and hummed heavily.

very angry!

Gu Xinlan's voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, "Although Jingshu doesn't like to talk, children have a very strong temper. Don't take it to heart, Young Master."

"Aunt Lan, your injury hasn't healed yet, why did you come out?" Ye Ying stood up when she heard the sound, and the little man sitting beside her quickly ran behind Gu Xinlan and habitually grabbed the corner of her clothes.

Gu Xinlan leaned back, "Jingshu disturbed the owner of the young village, and my servant came to take her back."

It turned out that she saw Jing Shu in the room arguing with the birds on the porch, alarming Ye Ying, so she hurriedly put on her clothes and came out.

"It's okay." Ye Ying looked at Jing Shu who hid behind Gu Xinlan again. It was hard for the little girl to stay by his side for a while, and it seemed that she had to find another chance next time. Qing Juan's eyes flickered slightly, "In the future If she is bored, she can walk around here as she pleases."

"This..." Gu Xinlan was slightly surprised.

Ye Ying said again: "But if you leave this Luomei residence, you need to observe some rules."

"The servant will go back and teach me well." Gu Xinlan bowed her head in response, glanced at the silent Jing Shu, and decided to talk about it later.

Jing Shu was led back to the room by Gu Xinlan, seeing her mother close the door, she stood by the bed with her hands tied and waited for a lecture.

"Jingshu, your mind has been different from other children since you were a child. Mother has always let you go because you are sensible, but there is one thing you need to keep in mind. In this Hidden Sword Villa, we are just servants, respectable masters. You have to be respected. The young master was generous before, and let you use your temper. You must not be like this in the future. If you feel that staying here is not going well, mother has no choice but to send you out."

Hearing that Gu Xinlan was going to send her away, her black eyes trembled, Jing Shu raised her head immediately, but saw that her eyes were reddish, she was extremely reluctant to think about it.The clenched palms crumpled the hem of the skirt, and it took a long time for him to utter a word in a muffled voice, "From now on, the rules are... Please don't drive me away."

"Ouch, you child..." The tip of her nose was soured by Jingshu's words, and she wiped her tears, Gu Xinlan hurriedly pulled the little girl into her arms, "Mother, I'm not willing to drive you away, I'm just worried that if something happens in the future, I won't be able to protect you." hold you."

"...Okay." Jing Shu responded, raising her small hand to wipe the tears from the corners of Gu Xinlan's eyes, "Don't cause trouble for my mother."

One day before the Famous Sword Conference, distinguished guests came. The last famous sword winner, Aunt Gongsun, finally came to visit. Ye Mengqiu took this opportunity to set up a banquet in the building outside the building to entertain the heroes of the village, and thus recruited most of the maidservants .

Ye Ying, as the successor of Hidden Sword Villa, naturally couldn't miss such a feast. Only two guards, some old servants, and Gu Xinlan's mother and daughter were left in Luomei Residence.Nothing to do at night, Jing Shu wanted to wait for her mother to go to bed first, took the copper basin and went to the kitchen to boil water to wash up.

Jing Shu sat behind the stove adding firewood, sparks bursting from time to time in the hearth, her black eyes reflected the jumping fire, she didn't know what she was thinking.
