[Lu Xiaofeng] Hidden Forest of Flowers and Leaves

It was nearly noon, and several people finally came out of the small courtyard.Hua Manlou walked ahead, still a little unhappy.And the chief culprit, Lu Xiaofeng, put his arm around Han Yexin's shoulders, telling him what special skills the chefs of the Hua family have, and what dishes will appear on the dinner table.Lu Xiaofeng spoke so eloquently that he wished he could sit down on the table and start eating right now.As for Han Yexin, while agreeing, she didn't even hear a word.He looked at Hua Manlou who was walking in front, and didn't understand why Hua Manlou was angry and what he was thinking.

Hua Manlou stopped suddenly.

Han Yexin also stopped.And Lu Xiaofeng who didn't seem to notice anything, also stopped without a stagger.

"Lu Xiaofeng, you say that I don't notice the danger around me and that I keep tigers in my way, I don't deny it." Hua Manlou tightly held the hand hidden in his sleeve.

He didn't look back, his back was very straight, unlike that Hua Manlou who was always smiling.

"However, until the last moment, I will not give up." Hua Manlou turned his head, his eyes were bright, as if the blade had been slashed.

Lu Xiaofeng said seriously: "Maybe you will regret it."

Hua Manlou said: "I won't."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed: "Hua Man Lou, none of us are gods, why do you always think about saving others?"

Hua Manlou looked up at the sky.On October [-]th, the sky was bright and clear, and the autumn geese flew straight up.

"Because none of us are gods."

Therefore, no one can judge a person's good and evil at once.

He would rather take another look, hoping that the other party can stop and everything can be redeemed.He can't judge a person's good and evil life and death just because of one thing.

But is it right to do so?Will tolerance also push people into the abyss step by step?

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou, neither will give in.But they also know that a friend's thinking must never be wrong, and their own thinking is not necessarily correct.

They are children.While endowing them with extraordinary talents, God also allowed them to enter the world of adult intrigues in advance.

But it is enough to know that if you are wrong, there is an absolutely trustworthy friend to make up for it at any time.

Han Yexin didn't know what they were talking about.But when he looked at them, he would laugh.How lucky is it to have such a friend?

Although their conversation has exceeded the burden that a child should bear.

Han Yexin ran over and pulled Huamanlou's sleeve: "Huamanlou, are you finished? Hurry up and leave when you're done! Lu Xiaofeng told me that I was so hungry!"

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but said: "Brother Xiaohan, I see it's obviously your own greedy worm making trouble, how can you blame me?"

"Where do I blame you?" Han Yexin made a frowning expression: "I can only blame myself for not living up to expectations."

Hua Manlou gently patted Han Yexin's head.

Han Yexin was very thin, making his head look big.His hair was not smooth at all, it was black and stiff.The former Han Yexin must have suffered a lot.

Hua Manlou sighed softly in his heart.

Of course, he will not be ignorant of other people's kindness, and he can always quickly detect the kindness of others.

Having said so many inexplicable things to Lu Xiaofeng, brother Xiao Han must have worried.

He took Han Yexin's hand and said, "Then let's go quickly. This year's dishes may already be on the table."

The dining room was very lively.Many people Han Yexin had never met before were waiting in the dining room for Huamanlou to come over.

These people include men and women, old and young, and when they see Huamanlou, they all warmly praise them.The round table in the dining room has been replaced with a long table.The table is full of mouth-watering food.

Luminous wine glass, as long as you can think of luxurious things, it seems that you can find it on this table.

Many people gathered around Hua Ruhai.He was dressed in brocade silk and laughed with his hands on his stomach.There is only one day in a year that is worth celebrating. On this day, of course, you must accept other people's blessings and laugh heartily.

Hua Ruhai is originally a lively person, but she doesn't see Qiu Suping.

Han Yexin followed Hua Manlou, and the people who were talking to Hua Manlou naturally noticed him.

As long as someone asks, Hua Manlou will introduce with a smile: "It's just Uncle Han's son Ye Xin."

Soul-Living Knife is also well-known in Jianghu.What's more, who doesn't know that Hua Ruhai and Han Tiecheng are brothers who changed lives when they were young?

But even so, there are also people with contempt in their eyes.Some of them will keep this idea under wraps, while others don't mind being seen at all.

Because anyway, they're just kids.

Han Yexin felt a little uncomfortable.At this moment, he was hit by something, and when he looked down, it was a small fruit core.

Han Yexin looked over and saw at the end of the long table, Lu Xiaofeng wearing a fiery red cloak was waving to him.

"Xiao Ye, you go there first, and I'll find you after I finish greeting you." Hua Manlou whispered.

Han Yexin immediately nodded with relief.

Sitong next to Lu Xiaofeng.At this time, several empty wine bottles were placed in front of Si Tong's table, and green wine was rippling in the glass cup.

"Spring flowers and autumn grass. It just urges people to grow old. Always sweep away thousands of mountain eyebrows. Don't worry too much if it doesn't reach it. Advise you to green wine and golden cup. Don't be too urging by the sound of silk pipes. Rabbits can't fly away, life has three times." Si Tong tapped the white jade bowl with ivory chopsticks and groaned.

He looked a little drunk already.Han Yexin looked around, and couldn't help being a little surprised to see that no one came to look for Hua Sitong.

Si Tong suddenly opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Brother Xiao Han, are you surprised that these people ignore me?"

Han Yexin nodded.

Sitong picked up the wine glass and said: "Anyone who comes to me, I will think they are looking for me to compete for wine." Sitong smiled with blinking eyes: "Do you think they are still willing to come?"

Han Ye thought in his heart, "Won't that offend people?"

Hua Sitong suddenly hugged his stomach and laughed: "You are wrong. Because your surname is Hua, they will always only say that you are crazy and have the demeanor of a celebrity."

Lu Xiaofeng spat out a cherry seed: "Brother Xiao Han, don't get entangled. With the wealth of the Hua family, there are already too many people who want to make friends with them. Wouldn't it be too tiring to deal with each of them so seriously? ?”

"But Huamanlou..." Han Yexin glanced at the crowd.Huamanlou has been submerged.

"Qi Tong has always been soft-hearted." Si Tong said.

"I didn't tell anyone about today's banquet, but they came anyway. My father is also a good man, so naturally he didn't want others to go to waste, so this happened again." Si Tong shook his wine glass, leisurely Said: "So when our other brothers celebrate their birthdays, few of them would like to be disturbed by outsiders! Everyone closes the door and enjoys their own time. But Qitong is different... Let him drive away the guests who come to the door, then But it's too difficult!"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Has Liutong not left the customs yet?"

Sitong said: "Do you think if Liutong came out, it would still be like this?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "At this time, I really miss Liu Tong."

Han Yexin knew that Huamanlou had six older brothers, but he had only seen the second child, the third child and the fourth child, and he had never seen the rest.Hearing them talking about Liu Tong at this time, I couldn't help being curious: "Excuse me, fourth brother, Liu Tong... no, sixth brother... what is he doing?"

Si Tong smiled, that smile was very strange.

Lu Xiaofeng also gave him a strange look.

Si Tong shook the glass cup: "Xiao Ye, I advise you to stay away from Liu Tong when you meet Liu Tong in the future."

"why?"

"You'll know then!"

At this time, Hua Manlou finally broke through the encirclement and walked to the seat.Hua Ruhai also announced that the banquet can begin.

At this moment, I saw Santong walking in calmly.

Sitong opened the seat in front of him and asked Santong to sit down: "Brother San, you are so punctual every time, Sitong really wants to learn from you."

San Tong moved Si Tong's wine jar to the side, and said: "If you don't want to come to drink early, you will learn it right away."

People in the dining room sat down one after another.Some dishes were removed, and some dishes were put on again.

But there are still three seats left empty.

One of them is beside Huaruhai, which is Qiu Suping's seat.

The other one should be Han Tiecheng.There is another one, Hua Wujuan, the second child of the Hua family.

Santong beckoned and asked Hua Wujuan to take his seat: "Second brother said he has something to do, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back soon."

"Brother hasn't come back for a long time." Si Tong said.

"The harvest in the north has been bad recently, and my eldest brother is busy adjusting grain for relief."

"No wonder."

Sitting on the seat, Hua Ruhai felt uncomfortable as if there were thousands of ants crawling under the seat.He couldn't stop looking at the door, if the chair wasn't strong enough, it might have made a sound.

Finally, his face brightened and he stood up.

Qiu Suping led the maid and walked in.She walked quickly without much smile on her face.Only when he came to Hua Manlou's side did he stop, hugged him, kissed Hua Manlou's cheek, and said a few words of congratulations on his birthday.

She took a wooden box as a gift for Hua Manlou, and then walked to her seat again.

There was dissatisfaction in the dining room.They were relatives and offshoots of the Hua family, so they couldn't get used to this Jiang Hu woman.But because of Hua Ruhai's relationship, they endured it again and again, and always felt that they had endured very hard, but Qiu Suping still went her own way.

Hua Ruhai welcomed Qiu Suping into her seat, seeing that the other person would not come, she toasted to announce the start of the banquet.Qiu Suping looked at the empty chair, her face turned cold again.Hua Ruhai hurriedly asked to remove the chair.

The lighting is intertwined, and the toasts and wine orders are flying around.After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, some people who feel that they have status will give gifts to Huamanlou.

For example, the genius doctor Mo Wenzhen sent a bottle of Danqingfengyulu pills to stop bleeding.

The brothers of the Hua family also took out the presents at this time.

Han Yexin looked at all kinds of treasures, which opened his eyes.He used to imagine the life of the rich, like a beggar imagining the life of the emperor, probably eating meat every day.Now that I have seen all kinds of things, I feel that the world is so big and full of wonders.

Another meaning of being rich is that as long as he is willing, he will spend a lot of manpower and material resources on something that does not seem to have much meaning.

This incident seems to have nothing to do with Lu Xiaofeng.He still ate happily, and even secretly drank a few glasses of Sitong's wine.

When everyone was gone, he waved to Huamanlou: "Qitong, come here, I also have a present for you this year."

The rest were simply curious.Both Sitong and Han Yexin watched with wide eyes as Lu Xiaofeng put his arms around Huamanlou's neck, and whispered a few words.Only Santong was still drinking wine leisurely, as if he didn't care at all, as if he already knew what Lu Xiaofeng was talking about.

Lu Xiaofeng turned his back to Sitong, Sitong couldn't hear them at all, and couldn't see what they were saying.And with Han Yexin's ability, even if he saw Lu Xiaofeng's mouth shape, he couldn't guess anything.

So the two had no choice but to suppress their curiosity, what to eat and drink, and pretended not to care at all.

Hua Manlou's face became serious again.

He picked up the juice: "Lu Xiaofeng, I offer you a toast."

Lu Xiaofeng waved his hands, but still picked up the wine glass: "I don't know if you like this gift or not."

"Whether I like it or not, Qitong has already received this kindness."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled.The two each drank the juice in the glass.

Han Yexin ate the food in front of him every now and then.He didn't even know what he was eating.Now everyone has delivered presents except him.

But he was already very embarrassed to give his gift.

Because that cheap one is basically not a gift.

Hua Manlou turned his head and said, "Brother Xiao Han, where is my gift?"

Han Yexin blushed, and faltered and said: "Which... hey, how can I ask for it myself?"

Hua Manlou smiled lightly: "Since I know you are ready, I naturally want to ask."

Han Yexin suddenly made up his mind and said, "You are not allowed to laugh."

Hua Manlou nodded, and deliberately said with a straight face: "I promise, even if you send me a handful of soil in front of the door, I will not laugh."

Han Yexin thought to himself, my gift is no different from a handful of soil in front of the door.In other words, if someone really sends you a handful of soil in front of your door, it would be a perfect match for me.

He took out a sachet and handed it to Hua Manlou.

Seeing his dejected face, Hua Manlou couldn't help suspecting that the bag was really filled with dirt.

Several people probed over, glanced at the sachet, and all said "oh", then turned their heads back.

The sachet contains the seeds.I don't know what kind of plant it is, and what kind of flower seeds it will produce.

Hua Manlou tightened the sachet and said, "When I go back and plant it, maybe it will bloom next year."

Han Yexin nodded.

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head funny.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I'm afraid you will like whatever he gives you?"

Hua Manlou said seriously: "How can you say that?"

Holding the cup, he said, "An inch of time is an inch of gold. The time to wait for the flowers to bloom is already a mountain of gold and silver?"

Three children, four children and Lu Xiaofeng all laughed.

Si Tong said: "In the future, if someone says Qi Tong is not smart, I will be the first to object!"

Santong nodded: "I also object."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's almost like raising my hands against it."

Han Yexin wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl down.Only Hua Manlou drank juice leisurely, blinked and smiled.
