Peerless luthier

Chapter 26: Eventful Autumn

In the afternoon, Zhonghan Academy has nothing to do.

After Yanhui cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, Zhong Han accompanied her to the street to pick out lanterns—Mother said that she saw a butterfly-shaped lantern last time, and couldn't help but want to buy it.

When he was a child, Zhong Yi was very curious about why his mother liked lanterns, so when he put his head on his mother's lap, he asked his mother: "Why does mother always buy those beautiful lanterns?"

At this moment, Yan Hui looked up from the book, her red lips slightly raised.

Her eyes were bright and bright, as if thinking of a very beautiful story, she said: "Because, mother and father met each other at the Lantern Festival in Andu."

Zhong Yi pestered her to continue.

Yan Hui giggled, and she said: "That night was the brightest night in Andu. At that time, I picked a lantern from a vendor, and when I arrived at the lantern festival, I heard that every young man and woman can get a lantern here. The lantern, the lantern here is special, when the lantern is turned on, there will be a note, and the note can be written by yourself."

Zhong Yi's eyes widened: "Why have I never seen this kind of lantern before?"

Yan Hui said: "Probably because this lantern is a bit exquisitely made, maybe it has been lost." She sighed leisurely: "Later, I met your father and got acquainted, and I wanted to buy it again, but for some reason I couldn't find it anymore. .”

Zhong Yi heard this, and urged Yan Hui again: "Mother, continue to talk."

Yan Hui stretched out her show finger and tapped Zhongyi's forehead lightly, but continued in a sweet voice: "At that time, I also thought it was fresh and interesting, so I took a lantern and wrote a sentence in it, 'Light Ming, flowers don’t sleep’, and later said that they wanted to pass each other on, so they gave the lanterns to a woman next to them. Then the supporters of the Lantern Festival disrupted the lanterns, and let us go up and choose.”

Zhong Yi's eyes were shining brightly: "Did Mother get what Daddy wrote?"

A bright smile floated on Yan Hui's face: "I chose a lantern in the shape of an orchid, and turned on the lantern. On it was written 'the full moon night, the light is like the day, and the moon is more beautiful than a beautiful person, so I can only be ashamed'. At that time, I just felt shy, As soon as I looked up, I saw your father standing in front of me and looking at me. At that time, I was thinking: what a handsome man this is."

Zhong Yi asked: "Daddy talked to you?"

Yan Hui smiled and nodded: "He hesitated for a long time, asking me to return the lantern to him."

Zhong Yi: "...Why?"

Yan Hui tilted her head playfully, blinked her eyes and said, "Who knows? But after going back and forth, we met fate."

After Zhong Yi finished her lunch, she lay down on the back of the stool and stared at Hua Tian, ​​and finally waited for a word from the servant: "Young Master, Eldest Young Master has already had lunch in Tianchang."

Zhong Yi: "..."

He sat up straight and coughed a few times: "Who said I was waiting for Ah Li, I was playing with Huatian."

Hua Tian twisted her cat face and got out of Zhong Yi's embrace, and raised her tail.

Is this disassociation?

The servant was embarrassed: "..."

Zhong Yi suddenly picked up the flower field, and walked out of the flower hall without looking back: "Let's go! You stupid cat who doesn't know good or bad!"

In the wind came the miserable cat howling of Hanada——

Arriving at Zhong Yi's room, Hua Tian began to act coquettishly and flirt with others.

Zhong Yi was drinking tea leisurely on the soft couch. He looked at the flower field rolling on the carpet: "Don't dream, I won't find you a bell."

Huatian was stunned for a moment, then nimbly climbed onto Zhongyi's lap and began to widen his cat's eyes. Slowly, its eyes became wet, and with that small round face, it was very cute.

Zhong Yi has never been a hard-hearted person, on the contrary, his heart is very soft, so he bent down and hugged Huatian, saying: "Okay, okay, your wish has been fulfilled."

Huatian's eyes lit up: "Meow!"

Touching the soft fur of the flower field, I began to plan in my heart.

There was a break at noon, and classes would be held in the afternoon, so Zhong Yi gave up the lunch break and slipped out of the house with the coins.

In the morning, he originally wanted to ask Ah Li directly. Although Ah Li later released a "good smile" to him, he still felt that this kind of behavior was very risky. Recalling the look in Ah Li's eyes last night, hiss...he really didn't shiver. !

The sun was shining at noon, but there were not too many people on the street. Zhong Yi went directly to a Xiangxianglou branch not far from home. There are similar little bells.

As soon as he stepped into the door, the shopkeeper greeted him with a smile: "What does this little guest officer want to buy? Our Xiangxiang Building has everything for fun and entertainment."

Zhong Yi said: "I want to buy that little bell tied with a red ribbon, is there any for sale?"

The shopkeeper looked like you really know the goods: "Oh! This little guest officer is really amazing! Come here--" The shopkeeper raised his hand and pointed, and saw a lot of hanging on the ceiling of this small shop. The small red and bright golden bell looks very similar to the one in Huatian when viewed from a distance.

The shopkeeper said courteously: "This is a new one a few days ago, and it will be popular in Andu in a few days! Why don't you just buy a few more?"

Zhong Yi looked at the shopkeeper with a smile and said, "Is there any lettering on it?"

The shopkeeper swiftly lowered a bunch of bells for Zhong Yi to choose: "The engraved characters are different, some are 'Hundred Family Names', some are about virtues, by the way, look, there are patterns of flowers and plants here. "

Zhong Yi looked carefully and found a bell with the word "Li" engraved on it—buy one for Ah Li?I searched again, and sure enough, I found the word "Yi".

The word "Zhong" was found in "Hundred Surnames".

Zhong Yi held the shining bell in satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's pay the bill."

Saying goodbye to the smiling manager of the Xiangxianglou branch, Zhong Yi returned home in a good mood.

I looked at the clock, only half an hour had passed, and it seemed that I could take a rest for a while.

Going back to the small attic, I put a bell engraved with "Bell" on the flower field that is basking in the sun. Huatian is a little silly cat with a rough heart and not sharp eyes. Then continue to bask in the sun comfortably.

Rushing upstairs, he found that Ah Li hadn't come back yet.

Alas - Zhong Yi pushed open the door of Zhong Li's bedroom, the midday sun shone on Ah Li's dark blue sheets, looking very comfortable.

Zhong Yi sat on Zhong Li's soft rocking chair in a daze for a while, originally planning to give it to Ah Li as soon as he came back...Looking at the clock hanging on the wall, a quarter of an hour had passed.

Zhong Yi yawned.

When he woke up, the room was still empty, and the tip of his nose was full of fresh smells. Zhong Yi took a breath as if enjoying himself, and got up from the soft rocking chair.

As for the bell, it's better to give it to Ah Li when he comes back in the evening.

Thinking of this, he touched the flower field that was still snoring in the sun, squinted his eyes to look at Zhong Xiaoyi, and fell asleep comfortably again.

Parents hung lanterns in the courtyard, beaming with joy.

Zhong Han saw Zhong Yi and said, "Go to school."

Zhong Yi nodded and asked, "Father, what are you doing? For the holidays?"

Zhong Han's eyes widened, and he quickly turned his head to look at Yan Hui, who was looking at a butterfly lantern, and pulled Zhong Xiaoyi aside: "It's your mother's birthday!"

Only then did Zhong Yi come to her senses, and retorted blushingly, "I know, I know, October [-]th!"

Perhaps Zhong Xiaoyi's voice was louder, Yan Hui, who was looking at the butterfly lantern, looked back and smiled, walked over and touched Zhong Xiaoyi's cheek, and said softly, "Are you talking about mother's birthday?"

Zhong Xiaoyi nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Yan Hui looked at Zhong Han with a smiling face, Zhong Han smiled and said: "I greeted the restaurant a few days ago, and the wine for tomorrow night belongs to our family."

Yan Hui smiled, and said coquettishly: "You still remember that I like wine."

Zhong Han's face was gentle: "That restaurant is authentic, but there are too many people buying it."

Zhong Xiaoyi looked at her parents and felt that she couldn't get in the seam.

Zhong Xiaoyi said: "Father, mother, I'm going to school."

Yan Hui smiled and said, "Be careful on the road."

Zhong Han sent Zhong Yi to the carriage, and Zhong Yi waved to Zhong Han in the carriage.

In the autumn afternoon, there is a mixture of decay and new life in the wind. Some trees are still green, while others have begun to wither.

Zhong Yi bid farewell to Uncle Ma, and walked towards the familiar Zhiqin Building with a smile.

Passing by the lawn, I found that the snow-white rabbit playing on the lawn was not afraid of strangers, jumping towards Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi stopped, bent over and said, "Little rabbit, come here—"

The soft fur ball is warm and cute, but Wang Sanyin's icy breath is extremely uncoordinated.

"Uh——" Zhong Yi hugged the rabbit, staring blankly at the purple figure that came out of nowhere.

Wang Sanyin still glanced at him indifferently, passed him, and walked into the building in front.

"..."

This kind of arrogance cannot be imitated by others. The tall purple figure passing by just now is indeed Wang Sanyin.

Zhong Yi was dumbfounded for a long time before hearing the bell.

"Class is on!" Zhong Yi hurriedly put the little rabbit back on the lawn, and immediately ran into the Zhiqin Building.

On the second floor, Master Zhu was already standing on the podium.

"I'm sorry, Master..." Zhong Yi calmed down her panting in embarrassment.

Zhu Wen smiled at him gently: "Come in."

"Master Xie."

Zhong Yi hurried in and sat down in her seat.

Master Zhu said loudly: "Then, please take out the volume of "Qin Juan".

Too bad, the book hasn't come out yet.

Zhong Yi hastily opened the stomach of the desk, and it turned out... No, it's not this book, huh?Not this one either...

When Zhu Wen had already started lecturing, Zhong Yi was still looking for the desk with a blushing face.

Zhu Wen had to stop: "What's wrong? Can't find the book?"

"Uh……"

He turned the desk upside down but couldn't find the shadow of "Qin Juan".

Liu Fu sneered next to him and said, "I can't find any books, so I still come to class."

Hearing this sentence, Zhong Yi's face turned even redder.

Chen Cheng next to him said, "Why don't I read a book together?"

Zhong Yi looked up at him gratefully, but found that his eyes were full of sarcasm and ridicule.

Zhong Yi was in a daze wondering whether he should go or not.

Only Master Zhu's gentle voice sounded beside him: "No problem, just use my book."

Zhong Yi turned her head and looked at Mrs. Zhu's light smile who was close at hand, feeling warm in her heart.
