Duan Zhishaohua

Duan Shaohua thinks that he is fairly innocent, and tries his best to think carefully before doing anything.And when it comes to regret, the most profound thing is the lyre.

The thing that makes a living, and the only piano that has been with him for many years, was smashed by himself on a snowy night.Although it was a last resort, but in retrospect, I really regret it to the bone.

Maybe it would be good for him to survive another night at that time, but with the cold and pain in his body, he couldn't let people just freeze in vain.

Now facing Xin Ruoyuan, especially the piano in his hand, I really don't know whether it is joy or sorrow.

He didn't dare to speak, and touched the piano bag with his bare hands, his heart trembled intermittently.

Xin Ruoyuan looked at it with a smile, and said in a persuasive manner, "I saw that you didn't bring the previous violin. If you don't tell me, I won't ask. But since you are a luthier, you can't do without this thing by your side. You should look at it first." Look, this violin is just what you want."

He spoke slowly, and when Duan Shaohua looked up, he could see the fine sweat on his forehead.Thinking about coming all the way, my heart was even more moved, but my trembling hand still couldn't hold the piano, "You found this on purpose?"

Xin Ruoyuan seemed to nod his head, but he denied it for a moment, "It's not intentional, it was a gift from an old friend of mine, and I thought of Brother Duan right now. It's simply a gift of flowers to the Buddha, and I hope Brother Duan will accept it."

His words were indifferent, but he couldn't hide his true heart.How could he have the slightest intention of refusing, Duan Shaohua took the piano bag, caressed it lightly, untied the bundle, and the dark wood appeared vividly in his eyes.

The heavy body of the qin is placed in the hand and tasted against the light. At first glance, it looks like a piece of black and heavy.But after a closer look, it's not all dark, but there are patches of dark yellow or deep red on the body of the piano.The color is very bright, deeply inlaid in the wood, carved with silk red, charming and gorgeous, just like the streamer of purple clouds.

"This violin." Duan Shaohua sighed for a while, after seeing it and touching it, he couldn't even put it down, "This violin is made of good wood."

He touched the strings again and flicked a few notes, the sound quality was clear and pure, like jade beads falling on a plate.

Duan Shaohua was overjoyed to have such a favorite thing in Chad, he couldn't bear to put it down while stroking the piano.

No need to ask, I already know that he likes it, Xin Ruoyuan is also quite happy, "Brother Duan likes it, then I can rest assured."

"Of course it is." Duan Shaohua carefully looked and caressed, and inadvertently looked at the bottom of the piano, the joy in his eyes and places suddenly disappeared, and his face changed suddenly.

Standing vertically at the bottom of the piano, the wood color is still the same, and there is a row of cinnabar curses.

Duan Shaohua has seen it before, this ghostly symbol-like circle of holes, horizontal and vertical, shocking.It is a trick drawn by wandering Taoist priests on yellow paper to fool people, and it is generally called to exorcise ghosts and subdue demons.But how could this Taoist thing appear on the piano?

Could it be that, Duan Shaohua suddenly panicked, held up the piano and said: "What kind of wood is this made of?"

"You can see it too." Xin Ruoyuan didn't seem to hide anything, he pointed at the fan lightly, "Brother Duan, this piano is made out of a coffin."

Duan Shaohua's hand holding the guqin trembled, the coffin was a dead thing buried in the ground.When he was young learning to play the qin, he heard his master say that some good qin are made of coffins. At that time, he was startled when he heard that it was already a thing from the underworld.He had heard of it, but he didn't expect to actually see it today.

Although I don't believe in ghosts and gods, it's still very infiltrating to hold this yin thing.

But except for the source material, the sound quality and woodiness of this piano are excellent, it would be a pity to discard it.

His eyes were entwined, Xin Ruoyuan looked at all of them, and said casually: "Could it be that brother Duan also believes in ghosts and gods and is afraid?"

This soft sound fell to Duan Shaohua's ears, but it didn't feel good, "It's not that I'm afraid, but the coffin is a private house, and it's not a good thing to remove the attachments of the deceased. Besides, each thing has its own spirit, Why forcefully destroy it."

Xin Ruoyuan sat up straight when he heard the words, his eyes were piercing, "But even the attachments have been destroyed, so what's the use of remaining energetic."

It would be fine if someone else said this, but Duan Shaohua was shocked when Xin Ruoyuan said it.He lowered his head slightly to hide the sudden surprise in his heart, "Brother Xin, what do you mean by giving up on yourself?"

"No." Xin Ruoyuan's expression changed slightly, and he shook the door lightly, his peach blossom eyes gradually approached, "If the original attachment is not there, or is destroyed, then there is no fate, and it is time to find a good place. That’s right, and it doesn’t live up to the spirit of all things.”

Duan Shaohua was speechless, he seemed disapproving, but he raised his eyes in a daze, and all he saw was a smile.It's hard to speak out after messing up the words in his stomach.

It took a while to get serious, "Since it is Brother Xin's wish, I will not refuse." He solemnly stroked the qin in his hand, "This qin has a history of several years at least, it was made by Mr. Wuxia, it is really not a vulgar thing. "

The light in Xin Ruoyuan's eyes disappeared, and he nodded slightly, "Since that's the case, then I'm relieved."

The two smiled lightly, and there was a hint of subtlety hidden in the laughter.

After Xin Ruoyuan left, Duan Shaohua only felt a sudden turmoil in his heart.It seems that something is wrong, but I can't tell what has changed.Wanting to hang in the heart, occasionally sweeping lightly like a feather, very catchy.

After Confidence Ruoyuan gave him this piano, the two met more and more.

Most of the time, Xin Ruoyuan just sat quietly, and then asked Duan Shao to play a song for him.Either the breeze and the bright moon, or the high mountains and flowing water, or the wind and thunder.From clear to high-pitched, he asked for everything one by one.Duan Shaohua couldn't find a reason to refuse.He is a person who loves the piano, and he is a person who listens to the piano, but his discussion of mood is not as thorough as it was in the capital.Sometimes Duan Shaohua can't help wondering, does Xin Ruoyuan really have such a love for rhythm?

Or guess or think, the days still pass by like this.Spring fades, summer heat comes again, the sun is getting hotter and the air is getting drier.The green slices on the branches are curly, and the colorful flowers are also weak.Due to Xin Ruoyuan's warning, Duan Shaohua seldom left the house, and when the weather got hot, he seldom moved around.

It should also be said that the guest room that Xin Ruoyuan chose at the beginning was very good. In the scorching summer, only Duan Shaohua courtyard was surrounded by a bamboo grove, surrounded by shadows, and the bamboo branches were fragrant.Occasionally, the wind blows, and I can only hear a rustle among the bamboo leaves.

The sound of the phoenix's tail, and the soft chants of the dragon.This is the perfect place for a summer residence.

Duan Shaohua really liked this place, he was afraid of the heat, but with this quiet and cool place, he saved a lot of ice cubes.

There are only him and Caiqing in the room all day long. Duan Shaohua takes a nap while Caiqing is next to him fanning him.This maid also has a clever mouth, and she often made him laugh with witty remarks.In the mansion for several months, accompanied by Caiqing, in all aspects, it is really smooth to the extreme.Duan Shaohua also smiled at Xin Ruoyuan before, if his life continues in this way, I'm afraid he will become more and more lazy, and then he will become a real fool.

After hearing this, Xin Ruoyuan also laughed, and did not refute, but asked with a smile, "Then how does this place compare to Prince Jing's Mansion?"

The answer was ready to come out, but Duan Shaohua was blocked.

For a while, he always felt that Xin Ruoyuan had something to say, but when it came to finding out what was wrong, it was all in vain.

In midsummer, the days are lengthened, and the days pass very slowly.And the sun is shining, and the days are boring, but once the show is caught, the atmosphere is strong again.

As time goes by, years change secretly.The fragrance of Sophora japonica, sweet-scented osmanthus floats, and the heartbroken bridge begins.In a blink of an eye, it was August [-]th, the end of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xinfu was full of joy.According to the rules, a young boy ordered a full amount of moon cakes, prepared sweets and snacks, and spread a large table full.Just wait until nightfall to be cut up.

Jujube paste mooncakes, lotus seed paste mooncakes, and Cantonese-style mooncakes are packed into boxes and served in pieces.Candied dates, maltose, and sucrose are placed on the plate in large quantities.The mess in the kitchen didn't end for a whole day, and when it got dark and the moonlight fell, all these things were placed in the yard by the servant girl.When the full moon was in the sky, the family banquet began.

It's rare that people from the Xin Mansion surrounded the table regardless of master and servant.Toast to the full moon and celebrate together.

The bustling table was surrounded by people, the moon was shining brightly, cups were stacked, and laughter continued.

It was the first time for Duan Shaohua to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in Yangzhou. He had seen the prosperity and joy of the capital city, and also experienced the ignorance of Prince Jing's mansion.It's a time of honor and disgrace, and when I arrived in Yangzhou and Xinfu today, this kind of laughter was unexpected, but I also enjoyed it.

Looking at the main seat, Xinruoyuanyi is wearing a long ink-and-wash gown.Black hair shawls, hanging down like a waterfall; peach blossom eyes are drunk, with a smile;His fingers are slender and white, holding the porcelain cup like jade, in the eyes of others, it is actually softer than moonlight.

Duan Shaohua also stared at the past, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, only this kind of people can match the word flawless.Mr. Wuxia, he really lives up to his name, and what he says is true.

At first glance, he lost his mind, and Duan Shaohua admired it and became obsessed.If he was a woman, I'm afraid that he would overthrow everything just to win the heart of a beautiful woman.

The imaginary deviated from the track, he seemed to have seen the picture of himself chasing behind Xin Ruoyuan holding the piano.The scene was so funny that it made him laugh.

This line of laughter was inconspicuous in the table, but Naixin Ruoyuan noticed it.He raised his eyes, and met Duan Shaohua's smile that he hadn't had time to put away.

He didn't expect him to look at it at all, and that funny scene disappeared without a trace.Duan Shaohua couldn't react in time, the smile was fixed on his face, very stupid.

Xin Ruoyuan also smiled at him, but couldn't tell if it was friendly or a reminder.When Duan Shaohua came back to his senses, he choked up, he kept smiling for too long, and felt a little sore.

Now he didn't dare to think about it anymore, Duan Shaohua hurriedly lowered his head, took the mooncake and put it in his mouth.

After eating the dinner, I won the letter if the head of state agreed.The busy servants and maids couldn't stay idle all day long, so they dragged Pai to the street to make lights in pairs, and even tried to lure Xin Ruoyuan to go, but they all refused with a smile.

Xin Ruoyuan only held a pot of wine and a fan, and invited Duan Shaohua to sit under the flower stand.

Duan Shaohua originally wanted to see Yangzhou's Lantern Market, but after accepting Xin Ruoyuan's invitation, he had no choice but to abandon this idea.Maybe when Xin Ruoyuan has rewarded enough months, he still has time to visit the Lantern Market.
