148. Two Little No Guess
There was a stage set up in the backyard, and the Caiyun class was invited to sing "Borrowing the East Wind" on the stage. Wei Deyin and Han Sumei sat in the front. After listening for a while, they gradually became less excited and turned around and looked back.
Su Baiyu sat behind her side, two rows, and the person next to him was Han Chen. Han Chen was talking to him. He looked at the stage with a expressionless face, his eyebrows were faint, and there was no unnecessary expression on his face, as if he was listening to a drama seriously. He was still as if he was a child, with a tense face, cool, and he talked pitifully. He was too lazy to speak unless necessary.
The only difference is that he has changed from a boy to a teenager. His facial features have grown, and the aphrodisiac between his eyebrows has gradually faded away. He has a handsome appearance and full of heroism. Han Chen sat with him, his smile is as big as him, but he looks much more immature.
Han Chen noticed Wei Deyin's gaze and thought she was looking at him. Jun blushed and grinned at her.
And Su Baiyu didn't know whether he was just singing opera in the stands or some other reason, but he didn't watch her anyway.
Wei Deyin smiled at Han Chen, turned her head with her eyes bent.
After a while, she turned her head and looked at Su Baiyu again.
Su Baiyu still had the same expression. The boy on the other side talked to him. He opened his lips and replied lightly. The stage was noisy, and Wei Deyin couldn't hear what he said.
After a drama, Wei Deyin secretly looked at him several times, but he didn't even look at her. Wei Deyin pouted, feeling a little disappointed. Last time, when the 100-day banquet of my little niece, he obviously said a lot to her, why didn't he even look at herself today? Could it be that she called him "nephew" in front of everyone last time, and he was angry? But when the mother was present, she didn't want to be his aunt, and she still liked to call him Brother Bai Yu.
Wei Deyin is now growing up and is a half-year-old girl. She knows what aunts and nephews mean. Because of this, she is becoming increasingly reluctant to be Su Baiyu's "aunt".
After resting on the stage for a while, he started singing the next play. Wei Deyin caught a glimpse of Su Baiyu standing up from his seat, explaining to the people around him twice, and then walked to the opposite side. After a while, he never came back.
Wei Deyin was a little absent-minded. Han Sumei tilted her head and talked to her, but she held her chin and chin without responding.
"Your Highness?" Han Sumei called her.
Wei Deyin came back to his senses. Han Sumei pointed to the octagonal pavilion opposite and said again, "After the opera is over, let's go there to sit there? My brother is going to fight with people for poetry. My brother is so amazing about poetry."
Wei Deyin thought about it carefully, sat up from the chair, shook her head and said, "Sister Mei, I have something to do, I won't go, you guys have fun."
Han Sumei was curious, "What's wrong with Your Highness..."
Before Han Sumei could finish her words, Wei Deyin left in the direction Su Baiyu had just left, leaving Han Sumei with a confused look on her face. What is Your Highness doing in her backyard? Could it be that there is something urgent and I am embarrassed to speak?
Wei Deyin left the crowd, led a horse-faced skirt and skirted in a pebbled path on the couch. When she walked past the Yuedong Gate, she saw no one in front of her. Two palace maids and two nannies followed behind her, panting: "Your Highness, run slowly, fall carefully..."
Wei Deyin looked around and saw Su Baiyu. He was obviously in this direction just now. Why did he disappear? She felt melancholy and was disappointed. She was about to walk back with the palace maid. The nanny turned her eyes and saw a man standing next to the rockery opposite, with a blue brocade robe, a beautiful god, and a bright and sparse eyebrows. Isn’t it Su Baiyu?
The color of his clothes was a bit like the color of the plants and trees around him, and he said nothing, so Wei Deyin didn't notice him.
Wei Deyin's eyes lit up, and her little face that had just been depressed immediately became happy and shouted: "Brother Bai Yu!"
Su Baiyu stood here all the time, seeing her coming towards her, her eyes were curved, revealing a shallow dimples. The feeling of depression in her heart just now disappeared without a trace.
"Why are you standing here? Are you waiting for someone?" Wei Deyin came to him, turned around and looked around.
Su Baiyu said coolly, "No one is waiting for anyone."
Wei Deyin said, not pursuing this problem. She took another step forward. Seeing that Su Baiyu was not disgusted, she carefully reached into his embroidered gold-patterned sleeve, grabbed his hand, raised her head, and asked a little complainingly: "Brother Baiyu, why did you ignore me just now? Are you angry with me?"
Su Baiyu was stunned, "Why am I angry?"
"Because," Wei Deyin whispered and said in a low voice: "I called you 'nephew' last time..."
Sure enough, Su Baiyu's face was a little bad, and his long body also stiffened. "I'm not angry."
After a while, he added: "But don't call me that anymore."
As long as he was not angry, everything was easy to say. Wei Deyin nodded seriously, grabbed his hand and walked back, and said enthusiastically as he walked: "Then let's go back quickly. I heard that Han Chen was going to compete with others to write poetry. If they were late, they would be finished."
After walking two steps, Su Baiyu was still in place. Wei Deyin turned around and gently pulled his hand in confusion, "Brother Baiyu?"
Su Baiyu looked at her and suddenly asked, "Do you want to go to the street to play?"
Wei Deyin's eyes lit up, and she immediately forgot Han Chen to the sky. She nodded vigorously without thinking, "I want to!"
She lived in the palace all year round, and she rarely went out to play. She couldn't go out once a year. For example, she had been begging her mother for a long time when she came to the minister's house. The last time she went out to the street was about five years old? At that time, Su Baiyu went to school, she begged her sister-in-law to take her to the Su Mansion to find him. Later, the streets of the capital were much more interesting than those of the palace. There were bean cakes, candied haws, and candied people, and she was dazzling. Later, because there was not much time, the emperor sister-in-law hurriedly took her back, but the scene of the downtown city of the capital was still deeply in her mind.
Wei Deyin was very happy, "Does Brother Bai Yu take me to the street? What are we going to play on the street and where are we going?"
Before she could come over, Madam Jiang from behind coughed gently and reminded: "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager told me that you should not be allowed to run around. There are many people on the streets, so it is not safe. Besides, it is getting late, so you should go back to the palace later."
Wei Deyin was like the eggplant beaten by frost, and she suddenly became weak, but she didn't give up. "With Brother Bai Yu accompanying me, he will protect me." She turned her head and looked at Su Bai Yu, as if seeking recognition, "Is it, Brother Bai Yu?"
Su Baiyu nodded, cherishing his words as gold as gold, "Yes."
Although he was afraid of trouble and didn't like to go to lively places, as long as she was happy.
Madam Jiang still disagreed. She was an old man in the palace and served in front of the empress dowager for twenty years. After all, her words were a bit heavy. Wei Deyin could not fight her. She sucked her hard for a while. Seeing that the madam refused to agree, she had to accept it first and pretend to compromise.
"Okay... If you don't go, don't go. Can the nanny go to the front and say to Sister Mei, should I go back? I didn't say hello to her just now. If I leave suddenly, she would be worried." Wei Deyin said.
Madam Jiang knew that she was having some idea, but she couldn't go against her instructions. She glanced at her little face and sighed, "I'll go now."
Wei Deyin called two other palace maids and said considerately: "Madam Jiang is in poor health, please help Madam Jiang."
The two palace maids looked at me and I looked at you, so they had to follow them.
So only a nanny named Guan was left in front of him.
Madam Guan was not as strong as Madam Jiang, but it was also very difficult to pass. Wei Deyin was thinking about how to support her, but her hand was held back by Su Baiyu behind her. He reached out and hooked her arm around her waist. Without waiting for Wei Deyin to react, he jumped and took her off the ground, borrowed the force on the rockery, jumped onto the wall and turned it out.
Not to mention that Wei Deyin didn't react, even the Madam Guan didn't react. When she came to her senses, there was no one in front of her-
"Your Highness!"
*
On the side of the wall, Wei Deyin's feet touched the ground. When she stood firm, Su Baiyu let go of her waist.
Wei Deyin was stunned at first, then there was an unprecedented sense of freshness. It was like a kitten and puppy wearing a ring. One day, the ring suddenly loosened, and she finally ran out of her home.
Seeing that she was motionless, Su Baiyu thought she was afraid, so she became serious and asked, "Did you scare you just now?"
Wei Deyin shook his head repeatedly, staring at him with bright eyes, "When did Brother Bai Yu learn light skills?"
Su Baiyu thought for a while, "When I was ten years old."
The Su family was born as a military general, and the men in the family were all martial artists. Su Baiyu had been practicing martial arts with his father Su Li since he was a child. Light skills were no problem for him.
In order to avoid the time when Madam Jiang and Madam Guan came over, they did not stay outside the wall for a long time.
In a few days, it will be the Spring Festival. The streets are lively and there are all kinds of lanterns hanging in front of every household. There are more vendors on the roadside than usual, and they sell everything. A new store in front is opening, and lions are dancing in front of the door, and there are several floors of people around. Wei Deyin saw such a lively scene for the first time, and everything was so rare. Just as she was about to pull Su Baiyu over to join in the fun, Su Baiyu shook her head and said, "There are too many people in front, let's go somewhere else."
Although he brought Wei Deyin out to play, he still wanted to put her safety first.
Wei Deyin looked from afar, and had a good time, and obediently followed Su Baiyu to spare.
There was an arch bridge in front of her. She quickly pulled Su Baiyu back and forth on the bridge twice, explaining: "Brother Baiyu, this is called "Leisure Baihua". When I was a child, I was in poor health, so my mother asked someone to build several bridges in the Imperial Garden. She said that if I walk more, my body will be cured."
I don’t know if this method works, but Wei Deyin’s body is indeed much better than when she was a child.
Su Baiyu followed her twice, and saw that there was a candy man in front of her, so she asked, "Do you want to eat candy man?"
Wei Deyin nodded vigorously, "I want to."
Su Baiyu took her over. The person who made the candy was an old man over fifty years old. Seeing two children coming, the young man was handsome and handsome, the little girl was beautiful and cute, and looked at Wei Deyin with a smile: "What kind of thing do you want to make?"
Wei Deyin thought for a moment, pointed to his face, and then pointed to Su Baiyu, "I want to be the same as us."
The old man said it was no problem, so he looked at them carefully, then lowered his head and picked up a piece of candy noodles and started to pinch the candy man.
After a while, the old man handed the two little candy men to Wei Deyin. Su Baiyu took out his purse and paid. Seeing that there were more and more people in this area, he took Wei Deyin to the opposite Xiangshui Lake.
Wei Deyin was in high spirits and left the candy man like Su Baiyu and handed him the candy man like himself, "Give it to you..."
Su Baiyu lowered his eyes. He had never eaten such things since he was a child. In his impression, only Aunt Xi's youngest son Zhiyu would like this thing. Now he looked at the sugar man in front of him and hesitated for a long time, but he still took it.
Wei Deyin had curved eyebrows and a satisfied look on her face.
Tangren pinched her vividly, her eyebrows were straight, her nose was straight, and her lips were slightly pursed, exactly the same as Su Baiyu. Wei Deyin suddenly felt a little reluctant to eat it. He looked left and right and saw Tangren's cheeks melt a little, so he quickly stretched out his pink tongue and licked it gently on Tangren's cheeks.
Su Baiyu turned his head and looked at it, suddenly feeling a little itchy on his cheeks, and he turned his head without saying a word.
Wei Deyin on the other side was still sighing: "It's so sweet."
After eating the candy man, they went to the Lantern Street in front. Su Baiyu guessed the riddle in front and Wei Deyin carried the lantern behind. Su Baiyu not only had good martial arts skills, but also had great talent. There were almost no lanterns in the street market that could be difficult for him. After a while, Wei Deyin could not take the lantern in his hand.
Su Baiyu took them all, leaving only a rabbit lamp for her. Wei Deyin dragged the rabbit lamp on the ground with one hand, held Su Baiyu's hand with the other, and followed him step by step.
Although there were many people on the street, Wei Deyin was very satisfied. Before he knew it, it was evening. The sun set and the sky was drizzling. After eating a meal of Yuanbao wontons in Yuhelou, Su Baiyu took her back to the Grand Secretary's Mansion.
Madam Jiang and Madam Guan stood outside the door, looking anxious, and had been waiting outside for two hours, and had not alarmed the people in the palace. If Wei Deyin didn't come back, they would have to go back to the palace to report to the Queen Mother. Now, Wei Deyin must be fully at the end, safe and sound, and finally let go of a big stone in his heart.
Wei Deyin said goodbye to Su Baiyu reluctantly. Before getting on the carriage, he grabbed Su Baiyu's sleeve and asked, "Brother Baiyu, will you take me out to play next time?"
Just now I finished playing, and I thought about next time.
Su Baiyu put all the winning lanterns in the carriage, looked up and met her gaze, nodded seriously, "Yes."
With his promise, Wei Deyin was willing to get into the carriage. Before she could lift the curtain beside her, the coachman waved his whip and set off.
When he returned to the palace, Wei Deyin thought that the matter was hidden well this time, but he was discovered by his mother.
Although there was no accident, the queen mother still punished her to copy a few pages of books and arranged two more nannies to watch her. Wei Deyin's studies were a little tight these days, and she also had to learn the manners of the nanny from the etiquette. Even if she wanted to leave the palace, she would not be able to go out for a while.
