A life of ups and downs is pure joy
Chapter 45: Fingerplaying the Lute
"Princess, please spare my life. I won't dare to do it again next time." Early in the morning, a group of maids knelt on the floor in Lin Qinghuan's room.
"Do you want it to happen again?" Lin Qinghuan looked coldly at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and crying.
"Princess, there won't be a next time." The maid was so scared that she kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"Who do you want to hear you shouting so loudly in the morning? Get out of here, you idiot! I'm so annoyed by your mere presence!!" Lin Qinghuan yelled at the maid while looking at the mess on the ground.
Several maids were so scared that they crawled out of Lin Qinghuan's room.
Lin Mo pushed the door open gently and squatted on the ground to clean up the mess.
"Oh, second sister, why do you have to humiliate yourself every day? You are a young lady but you live like a maid. You can pick her up if you want." Lin Qinghuan glanced at Lin Mo and continued to drink the hot porridge on the table.
Lin Mo looked up at Lin Qinghuan in front of him, feeling confused. Why did Qinghuan suddenly become the weird-tempered princess she didn't know, and then become the cute and soft fifth sister who was clinging to her? The strangest thing was that she didn't seem to know that she had been like this for a long time.
"Where is my medicine?" Lin Qinghuan urged Lin Mo when he saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time.
"It's still simmering. I added another ingredient for you..." Lin Mo picked up the broken pieces of the bowl on the ground and put them on the wooden tray. He waved for a maid to come in, and the little girl took it out in a panic.
"You go out and bring the medicine over when it's ready." Lin Qinghuan interrupted Lin Mo and said casually.
"Yeah." Lin Mo looked at Lin Qinghuan helplessly, and turned back to look at Lin Qinghuan before leaving. What was going on? It was like they were two different people.
In the main hall of Fengqi Pavilion, the Queen was gently combing her hair.
"Your Majesty, Princess Changping punished the servants in the yard again today. I heard that it was a maid who knocked over a bowl of tea." Nanny Huang said from the side.
"Oh, Princess Changping has been of noble birth since she was a child. It is not a big deal for her to punish a servant. Let her do what she wants. You can give her the fresh lychees that Nanlingzhou presented yesterday." Empress Xiao said.
"Your Majesty, you treat Princess Changping so well." said Nanny Huang.
"Of course I will be nice to her." Empress Xiao murmured.
After waking up from lunch break, Lin Qinghuan was lying on the bed in a daze. He had just had a quarrel in his dream and was so tired that he was tired even when he opened his mouth. The key point was that he quarreled with himself in his dreams every day, which was too weird.
"Huan'er, are you awake?" Lin Mo asked while knocking on the door gently.
"Come in quickly, Sister Mo." Lin Qinghuan jumped up, sat on the edge of the bed, put on her shoes and socks, and shouted outside.
"Huan'er, the medicine is ready." Lin Mo looked at Lin Qinghuan and walked forward.
"Sister Mo, is there something new added to this medicine? Why does it taste so fragrant?" Lin Qinghuan took a sip and then smelled the medicine bowl.
"Well, does it taste better than before?" Lin Mo sat down and said softly.
"Sister Mo, as long as the medicine is made by you and Brother Xiao, I will drink it in one gulp no matter how bitter it is." After drinking it, Lin Qinghuan took Lin Mo's arm and said coquettishly.
"Huan'er, do you... do you want to go out for a walk?" Lin Mo looked at Lin Qinghuan, hesitant to speak, and then asked.
"Wait a moment. There are too many people in the garden right now. If I go there, they will all be afraid of me. I will go out at noon." Lin Qinghuan was also puzzled. He no longer had any airs and did not need to greet these maids who trimmed the flowers and plants. However, they trembled when they saw him. He did not know why.
"Maybe it's because our Huan'er is too beautiful, and these people are so envious of her." Lin Mo looked at Lin Qinghuan and comforted her with heartache, "Huan'er, what happened to you this year? Fortunately, it didn't affect your condition." Lin Mo was very distressed.
"Sister Mo, I asked for a white jade flute a few days ago, but it's really difficult to learn. Today I decided to go to the garden to play the xylophone, at least I can learn a little bit. Sometimes I really admire my third sister for being able to play the xylophone so well." That day, when Lin Qinghuan heard the Queen talking about her two nephews from her mother's side who were very good at music, she realized that Xiao Yu also liked to play the piano and the flute, so she made up her mind to learn the basics, so that in the future, one of them could play the piano and the other could dance with a sword, and their life would be very happy.
"Huan'er is so smart, if she calms down she will definitely learn well."
"Ah."
When Lin Qinghuan walked around and around to the garden, she saw the figure she had been thinking about day and night in the pavilion. She walked so happily that her footsteps were like the wind. The maid holding the xylophone behind her hurriedly caught up.
"Brother Xiao, are you waiting for Huan'er?" Lin Qinghuan shouted behind Xiao Yu. The maid next to him came forward to put the xylophone away and hurried out of the yard. They were the only two people left in the entire garden.
"Huan'er, what are you doing?" Xiao Yu asked after taking Lin Qinghuan's pulse, looking at the xylophone on the table.
"Huan'er wants to learn the piano, but she is too stupid, so she wants to come here to practice." Lin Qinghuan said with a pout, looking very playful.
"Play it for me." Xiao Yu stretched out his beautiful hands and gently plucked the strings, looking at his beloved in front of him and said.
"Then Brother Xiao, please don't laugh at me." After Lin Qinghuan finished speaking, he sat up straight, stretched out his white and slender fingers and began to pluck the strings clumsily. It was much more pleasant to the ear than playing the flute. After all, he had learned it from Lin Qingwan for quite a while when he was at the mansion.
After the song ended, Lin Qinghuan looked forward to Xiao Yu's praise.
"Huan'er, isn't this a very good play?"
"But it's still far from enough to accompany Brother Xiao in sword dancing." Lin Qinghuan said dejectedly.
"I'll teach you." Xiao Yu gently took Lin Qinghuan's arm through his sleeve and began to teach her step by step. Lin Qinghuan was secretly delighted and followed Xiao Yu obediently to learn to play the piano. After putting in so much effort, the piano she played was indeed much more pleasant than before. After the song ended, Lin Qinghuan turned her head to look at Xiao Yu happily, and Xiao Yu also looked down at her. Their faces were very close, and they looked at each other with affection in their eyes. Xiao Yu looked at Lin Qinghuan's pink lips and swallowed subconsciously and rationally. Lin Qinghuan reached out and touched Xiao Yu's Adam's apple out of curiosity, which startled the boy's cheeks so much that they turned red. The girl's smile was deep and shallow, and her face was as delicate as a peach blossom, which was pretty and charming.
"Brother Xiao, why are you blushing?" Lin Qinghuan gently touched Xiao Yu's face with her delicate hands, "It's still so hot."
"Huan'er, I...how do you feel in the palace? Are you unhappy?" Xiao Yu calmed down his strange emotions that were provoked by this silly girl, then gently held Lin Qinghuan's shoulders and asked.
"No, ever since Brother Xiao said he would take me out of the palace next year, I have been in a very happy mood every day." Lin Qinghuan took her little hand away from Xiao Yu's face, then picked up the teacup on the table and gently brought it to Xiao Yu's mouth, "Brother Xiao, drink some water." Xiao Yu felt relieved after hearing this, and obediently drank a sip of the tea in Lin Qinghuan's hand.
"Huan'er, I have to go to Dayan with my master. It may take two or three months. I checked your pulse and it is very steady, which makes me feel relieved." Xiao Yu had agreed with Lin Qinghuan before that he would come to this pavilion to stay with her for a while every few days. As the weather was getting colder, he told Lin Qinghuan to stay well in Youran Residence and take care of herself.
"Brother Xiao, Huan'er won't be able to see you for such a long time?" Lin Qinghuan looked at Xiao Yu aggrievedly and muttered.
"Good Huan'er, I will be back soon." She didn't know that Xiao Yu went there because he heard that the Great Yan Kingdom had discovered traces of the dragon fruit flower, and she must be going to find it for Lin Qinghuan.
"Well, then I will practice the piano every day. When Brother Xiao comes back, I will definitely be able to play it to perfection." Lin Qinghuan nodded obediently.
The maid outside heard the melodious piano music inside again, which was much better than before.
