Life is as short as a spring dream

The deputy general was surprised when he heard Yan Pinyu say that the list of birthday gifts was presented.The general of their family never asked about money and favors, but at this moment he suddenly wanted to see the gift list. Although the deputy general was quite puzzled, he agreed and went to the housekeeper to ask for it.The banquet over there was still going on, but here the general was hiding in the study and holding a thick gift book to examine it carefully from beginning to end.The lieutenant thought to himself, I don't know how many other worries Mrs. Yan has had today, and I don't know what kind of temper the general has changed today.After thinking for a long time, there was no result. Yan Pinyu was still thinking about the gift book, and the lieutenant, bored, stood upright in the corridor, silently counting the peach petals that fell all afternoon.

Finally, the sound of armor colliding came from the study, and Yan Pinyu moved.The deputy general quickly pulled his mind back from the peach blossoms all over the place, and stood guard at the door with his head down.Not long after, Yan Pinyu came out and asked with a sullen face, "Where are the congratulatory gifts?"

The deputy general was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Today is the general's birthday, and the congratulatory gift should be put in the big treasury in the mansion."

After listening to Yan Pin's words, he walked forward without saying a word, and the lieutenant quickly followed.After walking a few steps, Yan Pinyu suddenly stopped, turned around, and glanced at the lieutenant general with strange eyes.

The lieutenant was beating drums in his heart, and after a long while, he heard Yan Pinyu cough twice, and asked hesitantly, "Where is the big warehouse?"

"..." The lieutenant quickly lowered his head and said with a smile, "It's on the east side."

Yan Pinyu quickly raised his feet and walked east, leaving behind the lieutenant who was still bowing his head.

I don't blame him, this General Yan had to practice martial arts when he was young, he was obviously not dull, but he didn't even bother to deal with it.In desperation, the old general had no choice but to follow his wishes and keep him in the army, and he was not in the mansion most of the time.When he was a little older, the Yan family only had the strength of the Yangzhou garrison in their hands, and there was no interest in the army, so they returned home, but they still ran out every now and then, throwing up bandits' nests and flooding everywhere. Stealing a lair or something.After returning to Yangzhou and settling down, she married Yu Qingxian of the Yu family within a few years. This business lady is very shrewd. He didn't even know where his big warehouse was.

There are few people living in the east of the mansion, a large garden and a Qulang Lake occupy more than half of it.I don't know why, even though the garden on the east side is very beautiful, neither Yan Pinyu nor Yu Qingxian seldom come here.The lieutenant followed Yan Pinyu to the east, and saw that the more the general walked, the slower his steps were, and his boots stepped on the ground, making a sound like they were smashing into the ground.

Walking to the edge of the lake, Yan Pinyu suddenly stopped and stared straight at the water.

"Fuck you, I'm afraid of water! I'm afraid of water! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

A figure with a blurred face seemed to pass by in front of his eyes. The strange thing is that after so many years, the voice is still very clear. Even the tone and interval, Yan Pinyu remembers it exactly.

The lieutenant general was young and only a warrior, so he couldn't hide his words. Seeing Yan Pinyu standing silently by the lake for almost a stick of incense, he felt that the general was really strange today, so he couldn't help shouting: "General? General? "

Yan Pinyu turned his head and didn't look at him, and was about to lift his feet to continue walking, but found that he didn't know the direction.

"..." Yan Pinyu withdrew his half-raised foot and said seriously, "Where are you going?"

The lieutenant tightened his lips, turned sideways, and pointed in a direction.

The road leading to the big warehouse is by the lake, but it happens to be covered by a rockery.Yan Pinyu turned around the rockery and saw the gate of the big warehouse.No one dared to break into the Yan Mansion, and even the big warehouse was guarded by a few servants.When they saw Yan frequency talking, they were quite surprised, but they hurriedly saluted, and the leader hurriedly greeted them with tea.

"No need," Yan Pinyu rolled his eyes, "I'm looking for a painting."

"I don't know what kind of painting the general is looking for?" The manager nodded and said while counting with his fingers, "There are Wu Daozi, Gu Kaizhi, Huang Jucai in the warehouse..."

"I'm looking for a birthday picture." Yan Pinyu interrupted him, and after thinking for a while, he added, "It was delivered today, and when it was stored, it was named Ou Ying."

Yan Pinyu flipped through the gift book from beginning to end, only to find Ouying and his party among a bunch of gift givers.The guests all had names, only Ou Ying and others wrote "Madam and Honored Guest" as a prefix, and there was no other information, Yan Pinyu immediately knew that it must be the girl.

The steward led away, Yan Pinyu stood motionless in the yard, frowning.Yu Qingxian has never been like this before, just befriended by chance?snort.Although Yan Pinyu had a bad temper, he didn't give Yu Qingxian any embarrassment in front of so many people, he just turned back to the room.As for what she meant, Yan Pinyu didn't want to ask, he wanted to know the girl's background, it was not difficult.

After a while, the person in charge brought up the scroll.Yan Pinyu stood in the yard and opened it. It seemed to be a landscape picture, with a vast expanse of magnificent water and swaying reeds.Yan Pinyu couldn't tell if the painting was good or bad, so he went straight to find the inscription.

"Freedom in ten thousand hectare waves.

But I wish the general will hang the arc and be full of ambition.

Sincerely, Ou Ying and friends. "

Yan Pinyu read it a few times, but didn't see anything unusual, but on the screen, although the water waves are slightly rippling, it seems to be a beautiful scene, but it always feels a little... uncomfortable.

Yan Pinyu picked up the scroll and threw it to the lieutenant general, without saying anything, turned and left.

As soon as the footsteps disappeared, the warehouse manager hurriedly lowered his voice and said to a servant: "Quickly tell Madam, the general has taken Miss Ouying's congratulatory gift away."

After the banquet, Huamanzhu and the three went to their own residence.Before coming, Ou Ying and Li Wangpin were very curious about that General Yan, but now they can't care about it.Seeing that there was no one around, Li Wangpin grabbed Hua Manzhu and opened his mouth first: "Xiao Zhu, why is that General Yan staring at us?"

Ouying also looked at Huamanzhu in confusion.

Hua Manzhu sighed: "It's not us, he is looking at Yingying."

"Look at me?"

"what!"

The two of them disagreed, and Li Wangpin rushed to say: "He sees what Yingying is doing! Could it be that he still wants... still wants..." Li Wangpin liked Ou Ying in his heart, so he naturally felt that she was unparalleled in beauty. Yu stared at Ou Ying for a while, and he naturally thought that Yan Pinyu was not a decent person, and he was very anxious because he fell in love with Ou Ying's beauty, but it was difficult to say those nasty things in front of Ou Ying.

Of course Hua Manzhu is not like this, Ou Ying was puzzled, but didn't think about it.

"Brother Li, don't worry." Hua Manzhu paused, remembering how Ouying and Madam Yan met, and said casually, "Mrs. Yan's old friend, I think General Yan is also acquainted. Xu met Yan at the first glance. Like Madam, admit your mistake."

Li Wangpin was stunned for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief.Ouying was puzzled, and stared at him, then sighed again: "Who the hell is it? Do I really look like him? My uncle said that I look like my mother, but my mother is just a younger brother, there is no one else. relatives."

Hua Manzhu remained silent.Ou Ying muttered to herself for a while, then raised her head abruptly, and shouted as if she had made up her mind: "Whoever he looks like, I'm a beautiful lady, it's his luck that he looks like me, hmph."

Li Wangpin couldn't hold back his joy, seeing that Ouying was about to lose his temper, he quickly coaxed him: "That's right! That's right! Yingying is the most beautiful!"

Where Ouying was willing to spare, she chased after him with her Xiaofenquan fist, Li Wangpin hid while begging for mercy, Hua Manzhu also shook his head with a smile.

Unknowingly, Li Wangpin's address to Ouying has changed from Miss Ouying to Yingying, but Ouying doesn't seem to notice.Hua Manzhu slowly followed behind the two who were fighting, temporarily pulled his thoughts away from Yan Pinyu, sighed silently, it seemed that they were going well.

At least, much smoother than myself.

When passing through the peach blossom forest, some spring breeze blew up, and some petals fell on Huamanzhu's body.Back in the room, he was raising his hand to pat the petals on his shoulder, but he suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Who!"

With a soft sound, a figure came out from behind the screen.

Hua Manzhu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, he didn't care much, and quickly rushed forward, hugged the man tightly, and called out: "Brother!"

Ren Pingsheng was stunned for a moment, the words he was about to say turned into a sigh.

He stretched out his hand and gently hugged Huamanzhu.
