Lanterns are hung in the garden.

Under the reflection of the white snow, the appearance of the little boy and the little girl is particularly clear.

But Luo Qingzhou didn't know him.

Until the little boy excitedly said: "Brother, steamed buns! Steamed buns...I am Dongdong!"

The little girl also said excitedly: "Brother, I am Xixi! You bring us steamed buns to eat every day, have you forgotten?"

Luo Qingzhou was startled and realized this.

They were actually the little brother and sister in the alley!

"Why are you here?"

Luo Qingzhou's face was full of astonishment.

Back then, the brother and sister in the alley were dressed in rags, their faces covered with dirt and scars, and they couldn't even see their appearance clearly.

Now he is wearing clean clothes, his face is smooth, tender and rosy, and he seems to be a completely different person.

How could he recognize it?

Moreover, why did these two brothers and sisters suddenly appear here?

The little boy named Dongdong said with red eyes: "Brother, a sister brought us here. That day Xixi and I saw your brother leaving in a sedan chair. We originally wanted to wait for him to come back, but we waited.

Brother, you haven't come back for many days... Xixi and I are so hungry that we are ready to leave there..."

"That day, a sister suddenly walked into the alley and said that she could find a place for Xixi and me to work and support ourselves, so Xixi and I came over... Unexpectedly, my brother was also here."

Luo Qingzhou suddenly clenched the hoe in his hand and asked, "What's that sister's name?"

The little boy shook his head: "Sister didn't say anything."

The little girl quickly said: "Brother, that sister is very beautiful and likes to laugh. Her smile is very cute. She has two cute dimples on her face. The skirt she wears is also very nice."

"Lark?"

Luo Qingzhou's heart trembled, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

Is it a coincidence, or...

"Brother, why are you here?"

the little boy asked happily.

Luo Qingzhou came back to his senses, was silent for a moment, and said: "I got married, and this will be my home from now on. Dongdong, Xixi... I'm sorry, brother, I left you."

The little boy quickly said with red eyes: "Brother, please don't say that. If my brother hadn't sent me and Xixi steamed buns, ointments, and quilts, Xixi and I would have starved to death and froze to death by now."

The little girl also nodded and said with tears in her eyes: "Brother, as soon as we have time, we will go to that alley to wait for you. I didn't expect to see you here. It's great."

The little boy said with a happy face: "Brother, Xixi and I will work hard in the future, and my wife will not drive us away, so that we can see my brother more often."

The little girl also broke down in tears and said with a smile: "Brother, my wife even lets us go to school to study. We can eat meat every day, and we also have a big house and warm quilts to sleep on."

For this little brother and sister who were once reduced to beggars and almost starved to death and froze to death in the cold alleys, this is paradise.

The sister who brought them here and the lady who asked them to plant flowers for school are their angels.

Luo Qingzhou was confused and was about to continue asking when Meier suddenly walked out of the room and said with a straight face: "Uncle, Madam asked you to come in."

Luo Qingzhou paused, put down the hoe, glanced at the two brothers and sisters, walked up to Mei'er and asked: "Miss Mei'er, they..."

"Don't ask more questions than you should!"

Meier blocked his words.

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, didn't ask any more questions, and turned to say goodbye to the two brothers and sisters.

Dongdong and Xixi both waved happily: "Brother, we will find you."

"Work hard! Otherwise you won't have anything to eat!"

Meier scolded with a straight face.

Dongdong and Xixi stuck out their tongues and quickly went over to pick up the flowerpot.

Luo Qingzhou followed Meier into the house.

In the hall, Song Ruyue was still sitting there, holding a cup of tea in her hand and sipping it gracefully.

Seeing him come in, he glanced at him, stood up for a while, and then said with a cold face: "Have you finished the "The Romance of the West Chamber" you just talked about word for word?"

Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and cupped his hands and said, "Mother-in-law, I've finished speaking."

When Song Ruyue heard this, she sneered: "It seems you don't want to go back tonight, right?"

Luo Qingzhou looked up at her: "Why did my mother-in-law say this?"

Song Ruyue raised her eyebrows and snorted coldly: "It's no wonder that you are still a scholar, but you are full of lies! There are obviously many parts of "The Romance of the West Chamber" that have not been told yet. Do you think I haven't heard of it? Let me tell you, I have been testing before.

You! In fact, I have read this story before!"

Luo Qingzhou looked into her eyes and heard what she was saying: [Huh, let's trick this kid first and see if he wrote it himself!]

"Mother-in-law, I can guarantee that this story has been told word for word, without any omissions."

He said respectfully.

Song Ruyue's eyes flashed and she stared at him and said, "Did you write it yourself? Or where did you read it?"

Luo Qingzhou cupped his hands and said, "This junior wrote it himself."

Song Ruyue snorted coldly and reprimanded: "You are doing evil things and not doing your job properly!"

But I secretly rejoiced: It turned out that this kid made it up himself. It’s very good. Now I can take it out and slap those hooves in the face! Humph, that Zhang Feng boasts that her son-in-law can tell stories and amuse people. I

Let her see tomorrow whose son-in-law is really good at telling stories! She must be so angry that her Gui Shui is out of balance!

"Hmph! Go back, and next time you dare to tell Weimo such a dirty story... Remember, before you tell it to her next time, tell it to me first, and I will listen first to see if you can tell it to her, do you hear it?

"

Song Ruyue said with a cold face.

"Yes, mother-in-law."

Luo Qingzhou did not dare to say any more and retreated.

He decided not to tell Miss Qin Er next time.

This story has to be told to several people throughout the day, and he is not a repeater.

His time is very precious, and he is not willing to waste it on such boring things.

Facing the wind and snow, he quickly left the backyard.

With something on his mind, he wanted to go to the "Lingchan Moon Palace" as soon as possible to ask Bai Ling what was going on.

When we arrived at the "Lingchan Moon Palace", the courtyard door was open.

There is no one in the front yard.

Luo Qingzhou knocked on the door, but after no one answered, he walked in.

Crossing the corridor and the road next to the house, we arrived at the back garden.

Bai Ling was wearing a pink skirt and was leaning against the round door, holding a flower in her hand, her slender jade fingers entwined with a strand of hair, her head bowed in a daze.

After hearing the footsteps, she raised her head, two sweet dimples appeared on her face, and said with a smile: "Uncle, I'm late tonight."

Luo Qingzhou gave her a complicated look and explained: "I went to Madam's place to say hello first, and I spent some time there."

Bai Ling said: "Madam, are you giving me trouble again?"

Luo Qingzhou shook his head: "No, Madam is fine."

Bai Ling smiled, turned around and led him into the back garden.

In the pavilion by the pond, a girl dressed in white was still sitting there in a daze.

Xia Chan stood under the big tree outside the pavilion with her sword in her arms, staring blankly at the falling snowflakes. When she saw him coming, she turned away and looked away.

Bai Ling couldn't help but said quietly: "Uncle, you are so partial. Today you gave Chanchan two bunches of candied haws. Chanchan has been showing off and coveting me in front of me since she came back. I'm so angry."

Luo Qingzhou glanced at the girl holding the sword and said, "Don't lie to me, Miss Xia Chan is not that kind of person."

Bailington stamped his feet, pursed his lips and said, "Uncle, what I said is true! Didn't you see that Chanchan looked like a villain at that time?"

Luo Qingzhou ignored her.

Xia Chan turned her face away, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly.

Bai Ling was furious.

Luo Qingzhou walked to the pavilion, raised his hands to the girl in white and said, "Miss."

Qin Jianjia came back to her senses, glanced at him lightly, and nodded slightly.

Still didn't speak.

Luo Qingzhou glanced at her eyes, said goodbye and left.
