Filial piety: the supreme emperor
Chapter 11 Father's Wishes.
Seeing Lu Ran's embarrassed expression, Qu Qirong couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, finding it quite funny.
She felt particularly comfortable during the time they were together. Although there was an age difference between them, they had an indescribable feeling, like friendship, like confidant, and even beyond these two relationships...
Lu Ran stopped thinking about the extremely embarrassing scenes and changed the subject:
“The second performance began, and this time it was no longer a piece of music, but a drama.”
As the song "Winter Goes, Spring Comes" finished playing, the pretty woman on the stage left and the curtain fell. Soon after, the curtain rose again, revealing a group of male and female actors who began to perform the plot.
This play tells the love tragedy of a rich girl and a poor scholar. By chance, the rich girl met a scholar, and they met, got to know each other, and finally fell in love. However, fate played a trick on people. The rich girl's family looked down on this poor scholar, so they forcibly separated the couple. In order to make his daughter give up the idea, her father also betrothed her to another wealthy family with a similar family background. Faced with this scene, she could only cry every day. Even though she was extremely unwilling in her heart, she could not go against her father's wishes.
On the other hand, the poor scholar who knew the truth came to the rich girl's house many times, vowing that he would become the top scholar in the future, begging her father to take back his decision. However, the rich girl's father not only severely reprimanded him, but also ordered his legs to be broken and kicked him out.
From then on, the poor scholar was depressed and drank to drown his sorrows. On the night before his wedding, he asked the heavens why they teased him like this, and then jumped into the river. The rich girl was heartbroken when she learned of this, and chose to commit suicide in her boudoir on the wedding day.
Just like that, the two lovers were unable to be together until the end of their lives due to various reasons!
The plot of the play was full of twists and turns, and it was very attractive, making the audience hold their breath and watch quietly, as if they had been integrated into the plot. Even Qu Qirong was deeply attracted and watched it with full concentration.
After the performance, many people were deeply moved and sighed. Some female audience members even covered their faces with handkerchiefs and sobbed quietly. A woman in the crowd was deeply moved and said in a sobbing voice: "What is love in this world? It makes people stay together for life and death!"
In the box, Qu Qirong had a complicated expression on her face, and she felt quite touched. She didn't know what she was thinking. When she had read similar stories about breaking up a couple in love before, she had not been too moved. But now, for some reason, she felt quite depressed.
Lu Ran seemed very calm. It was not because he did not feel involved in the scene, but because he had heard too many stories about love affairs between scholars and rich girls and had long been accustomed to it.
But having said that, the play arranged by Yinyuexuan is indeed very close to the current public taste. The performances of several actors are vivid and full of emotions, but the plot is a little too sad.
Fortunately, the following plays and music performances were all light-hearted and cheerful, gradually making people forget the previous tragic drama.
After Lu Ran accompanied Aunt Rong to watch the entire performance, he found that it was almost evening.
"Aunt Rong, it's getting late!"
"Then let's go back!" Qu Qirong nodded slightly, stood up and walked out of Yinyuexuan with Lu Ran.
Just as they reached the door, a feminine young man happened to pass by them. Lu Ran and Qu Qirong did not notice him, but just followed the moonlight, stepped on the snow, and slowly walked towards Xiaoxiang Yayuan.
The feminine young man paused, frowned, and thought to himself: "Why does that beautiful woman look so much like the lady?"
Although he had only met Qu Qirong once, her mature and plump figure and elegant temperament like a lady had already been deeply imprinted in his mind. He had been suppressing his desires and just waiting for the right opportunity.
"Brother Qu, what's wrong?"
Seeing Qu Yun standing still, the young man next to him in gorgeous clothes felt a little strange.
"Brother Shangguan, please go in first. I met an old friend and came over to say hello."
Qu Yun felt that they were more and more similar, so he found an excuse to follow them.
The young man in gorgeous clothes didn't think much about it and turned around and walked into Yinyuexuan.
At this moment, outside the gate of Xiaoxiang Yayuan.
Lu Ran stopped in front of the door, looked at Aunt Rong, and said, "Aunt Rong, I won't go in anymore!"
"Does Ran'er have any free time these days?"
Qu Qirong did not go in immediately, but asked this question instead.
Lu Ran nodded and responded with a smile: "There is nothing going on in the sect for the time being, so I'm sorry to bother Aunt Rong during this period of time."
Anyway, I don’t have anything to do recently, so I might as well spend more time with Aunt Rong and show my filial piety in Xiaoxiang Yayuan.
Qu Qirong frowned slightly, and said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "What do you mean by disturbing or not? Do you need to be so polite to Aunt Rong?"
Since his mother passed away, Lu Ran has no relatives. As an elder, she naturally has the responsibility to take care of him.
"Aunt Rong is right!" Lu Ran agreed, feeling warm in his heart.
Qu Qirong thought for a while, then said softly, "In that case, there are still many vacant rooms in Xiaoxiang Yayuan."
"If it's inconvenient for you, just stay here! That way, you don't have to run back and forth, and it can save you some trouble."
Lu Ran was stunned for a moment: "Wouldn't this be...inappropriate?"
You know, only Aunt Rong and a few personal maids live in the inner house of Xiaoxiang Yayuan. Would it be inappropriate for a man like him to move in?
"What's inappropriate?"
"I'm your aunt, not an outsider?"
Qu Qirong glared at him, then made a decision for him: "You don't have to go back tonight!"
She was not just saying this casually, but really had such considerations. After all, she was the person closest to Lu Ran. If Princess Zhenbei had not accidentally teleported into Baihua Valley, she would have gone to Lingbao Pavilion to look for him. In that case, Ran'er should have lived with her.
Of course, Qu Qirong did not express such words directly.
"I'd better go back. Even if I want to stay in Xiaoxiang Yayuan, I have to inform the sect in advance." Lu Ran replied after thinking for a moment.
Although Master Ning Qian is currently in seclusion for cultivation, there are still the big Lolita Li Shishi and the little fox Yingying in the residence in the back mountain.
Hearing that he agreed, Qu Qirong said with a smile: "Then do as you say!"
"Then I'll go back first!"
Lu Ran summoned the magic boat and prepared to return to Zixia Sect, but was stopped by Aunt Rong: "Wait a minute!"
"Aunt Rong?" Lu Ran stopped and looked at her in confusion.
Qu Qirong walked slowly to him and reached out to help him button up a button on his collar: "Ran'er, you are so careless sometimes!"
Lu Ran smiled helplessly: "Maybe I forgot when I took a shower and got dressed today!"
