Chapter 3

In the deep courtyard, winding vines climbed all over the high wall, and the scattered and overlapping leaves crawled darkly and quietly in the shadow of the high wall, and the slightest night wind passed through the gaps in the leaves, leaving no trace.The bright moon hangs brightly in the dark blue night sky, as bright as jade but with faint shadows, which makes people think of the legend of Guanghan Fairy.

The moonlight shines through the blue window screen into the sunken wooden window lattice, spreading silver frost all over the floor.

The boudoir was clean and tidy, everything on the dressing table was neatly placed, and a small carved wooden bed was covered by a pink veil.At the foot of the bed was an embroidered stool of dark gray rabbit velvet, on which sat an old woman with silver-gray hair and a kind face.

"Miss Miao'er, don't embarrass this old slave. Don't say that the master won't allow it. I really can't do anything about it." The old mama's face was wrinkled into a ball, and she earnestly advised.

"But, Miao'er really wants to go to the Lantern Festival!" Under the hazy veil, on the carved bed lay a petite figure, five or six years old, but with icy muscles and fine bones, with picturesque features.Her bright eyes are full of longing, rippling like water with a little bit of moonlight, she frowned slightly, bit the corners of her lips as pink and tender as petals, slightly lowered her long eyelashes to hide the disappointed look in her eyes, "As for Daddy, Daddy Don't care about me!"

The nanny looked at the girl she held dear to her heart with pity, and comforted her regretfully, "Miss Miao'er has always been well-behaved, and the master still loves you very much in his heart. Nanny sings a song for Miao'er, and Miao'er will have breakfast tonight." Rest!"

"En." Su Miao closed her eyes obediently, trembling slightly as her eyelashes trembling like butterfly wings cast a faint blue shadow.

"The moon is faint, bright and bright, like my smile; the moon is quiet, the willow branches sway, like my smile; the moon is far away, the clouds are floating, like my smile..." The nanny is kind and gentle Whispering softly, she gently covered Su Miao with a thin and cool quilt.

"Nurse is singing the lyrics written by Miao'er!" Su Miao mischievously opened her black eyes, smiled like peach blossoms in March, and closed them obediently, with a spring breeze slightly curved at the corners of her mouth.

The nanny smiled affectionately, and seeing that Su Miao had fallen asleep, she got up gently, walked out of the boudoir quietly, and closed the door carefully without making a sound.

But she didn't see that after she walked away slowly, Su Miao on the bed suddenly opened her eyes, a sly gleam flashed in her bottomless eyes like black jade.

The moonlight outside the window is like frost, a piece of silver light.The branches in the courtyard are shadowy, and the slender shadows overlap one after another, swaying and whirling with the night wind. In this festival full of yin and yin, it is like a group of demons dancing wildly, gloomy and cold.

Su Miao sat up on the bed, opened her dark eyes like ink, and looked out of the window without blinking, as if a black shadow drifted past.She immediately climbed off the bed, wearing white underwear close to her body, soft black hair hanging down half her waist, her petite and delicate face was only the size of a palm, but her watery eyes were extremely calm, as if she didn't look like a six-year-old child. Eye.

Holding on to her small embroidered shoes, Su Miao came to the bed. Her small body tried her best to push up the dark window. Her porcelain white skin stuck to the cool window sill. Her nimble eyes wandered outside the window, as if she was looking for something. , while calling in a low voice and cautiously, "Hey! Come out! I know you are here, come out! I want you to help me, come out! Please, come out!"

Searched and called for a while, but no one answered.

In the quiet courtyard, only the clear wind blows through the slender willow shadows dancing like dancing.

Su Miao lowered her eyes, drooped her thin arms as if she was extremely disappointed, turned around, and walked towards her big carved bed as if accepting her fate.

The faint sound of the wind behind him was like a faint sigh.

Suddenly, Su Miao turned her head quickly, with a triumphant smile on the corner of her mouth, her bright eyes were brighter than the bright moonlight outside the window, and a slender heroic figure was reflected in those clear water eyes.

Willows are floating in the silvery moonlight outside the window, with long black hair hanging around the waist or being rolled up by the wind, like willow branches with shady shadows.She was still wearing a long emerald dress, she was simple and down-to-earth, her heavy eyes stared coldly at the smiling Su Miao, her expression was inexplicable.

"You know I'm here?" She was silent for a while, her cold voice seemed full of chill.

"Of course!" Su Miao looked at the cold Liu with a smile, blinking her eyes triumphantly, but Nai Shengsheng's voice was old-fashioned, "Don't think that I am too young to remember! Since I was three years old, Every year on this day, I know that you have been here, but I deliberately pretended not to notice you." Suddenly she seemed to think of something, gritted her teeth, and asked Liu angrily, "Hey, I didn't ask you last time. , that afternoon, why did you leave suddenly! I was nagged by the nanny for a long time!"

Liu's expression moved, and in the dark eyes, the little stubborn girl stood on the ground covered with silver frost, her little feet half exposed outside the embroidered shoes were as smooth as jade, and she really wanted to be held in her hands, to feel whether it was as warm as jade With coolness in it.She glanced at the girl's eyes, which were as crystal clear as glass and as deep as black jade. The pride or anger in them were pure and natural, innocent and innocent; when she met those extremely clear eyes, she suddenly felt a tremor in her heart, He couldn't help explaining, "That day, someone came, so we naturally had to leave."

After speaking, Liu's heart sank slightly. She didn't know why, but she actually had a feeling of wanting to eliminate the girl's anger. There was no need to explain it at all.But why would she speak out to explain?She shook her head secretly, suppressing the doubts in her heart.

"Oh, that's right! You've broken into a private house, so naturally you can't be discovered by the grandma." Su Miao nodded as if understanding, and she gave a reasonable explanation for Liu's behavior, and then used her bright as black pearl Looking into Liu's eyes expectantly, he said with admiration, "Then can you help me, help me get out of this house tonight?"

Liu Wei frowned, feeling vigilant, and his voice was cold as ice, "What are you going to do?"

Su Miao pouted, and sat on the embroidered stool by the bed, leaning on the embroidered stool with both hands, her feet dangling forward and backward, as if she was just a naive and naughty little girl, "I want to go to the Lantern Festival I heard that there are beautiful lanterns tonight, flowers that explode with the sound of 'Peng', and a lot of delicious snacks! I have never been to a lantern festival before, and my father is always very busy, especially On this day, he never took me to go shopping; the nanny would say that I should not go out. But, I really want to go, I really want to go and see! You can come and go in this house without a shadow, You can definitely take me out, okay?"

Liu Wangjin's dark eyes, full of yearning and longing, softened suddenly in his heart, and he said, "Okay." Why do you always subconsciously soften your heart when facing this little girl.Thinking of this, there was a coldness in his eyes.

"Really?" Su Miao was ecstatic, she jumped down from the embroidered stool, she didn't care about the embroidered shoes that were half dragged, and her bare feet bounced on the cool as water ground to the window, beautiful as diamonds His pupils seemed to be condensed with countless rays of light, extremely bright, reflecting a bright little face slightly upturned, his smile was like a bright sun.She clasped her hands together, raised her small face and looked at Liu gratefully, praying, "Thank you, beautiful fairy! Miao'er knows you are the best!"

fairy?Liu wanted to sneer, but she held back when she saw Su Miao's bright smile. The pure joy in those watery eyes made her feel that it was worth it even if she softened her heart.

She looked at Su Miao tilting her head and thought for a while, then clumsily pulled out a water-colored skirt, put on the complicated clothes for her with her small body, and finally looked up as if she was patting dust. Smiling brightly at her, "Then let's go!"

Liu nodded slightly, still floating outside the window without moving.Su Miao pouted, stomped on her small and exquisite embroidered shoes, opened the door gently on tiptoe, slipped into the courtyard, took Liu's hand and quietly touched the courtyard wall.

The moonlight is like water, and the cold hand is held in a ball of warmth, tightly held by the soft, warm and fleshy little hand, which makes his hand so cold, Liu subconsciously wants to withdraw his hand, but somehow Greedy for this short-lived warmth, a warmth I haven't felt for a long time.

"Your hands are very cold." Su Miao didn't look back, Liu only saw a pair of cute pink silk braided buns, which looked like butterflies with broken wings under the moonlight, trembling and dancing in the wind.

"Hmm." She responded almost inaudibly, and wanted to withdraw her hand, but she couldn't help being held even tighter.

"It's just right, I'll help you warm up." Su Miao's voice was warm with a smile, as if the cold moonlight also warmed up, warming her heart.

"En." Liu nodded lightly, and there seemed to be a layer of warmth in his deep eyes.

"Hey, do you want to take me up?" Under the courtyard wall, Su Miao tilted her head, looking curiously at the tall and gloomy courtyard wall, and then at the slender Liu, her bright eyes blinked, as if I don't quite believe it.

The corner of Liu's mouth was barely visible, and her slender arms wrapped around Su Miao's waist, but she didn't see any movement, and the two of them were already outside the courtyard wall.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Su Miao opened her mouth wide and looked at the dark courtyard wall behind her in shock. She had wanted to climb over and break free from the cage countless times, but now she was already on the courtyard wall so easily. outside!She couldn't help but looked at the calm Liu beside her in admiration, and sighed with great admiration, "You are really a fairy, can you ride the clouds and ride the fog?"

Liu was silent for a moment, the remaining warmth in his palm was still there, and he said calmly, "Let's go."

Su Miao pouted, stepped forward and held Liu's hand, like a bird out of the cage, and chirped with a smile, "I'm going to see the lanterns, and I want to eat glutinous rice balls, wonton soup, small Steamed buns, um, and candied haws..."

What a foodie!Liu Xin smiled lightly, his face was still indifferent, but he couldn't help being led forward by Su Miao.

The stars are misty, the moonlight is like smoke, and the shadows outside the wall are enveloping.The gloomy ghost festival, the time when ghosts and monsters come and go, and the gloomy old house, which is as quiet as a dormant beast, seem to be enveloped in a thick layer of yin.

The porcelain jade-like female doll is wearing a water-coloured long dress. When she looks back, the eyebrows on the crystal clear skin are picturesque, and the big bright eyes are like jet-black ink jade. They are exquisite like ordinary people, and more like a fairy boy next to a lotus seat. Carved jade.The girl bounced forward, turned her head and smiled and said something from time to time, with a carefree smile blooming like a flower.

But behind her, there was nothingness, an infinitely strange nothingness.

The bleak wind howled in a low voice, rolled up one or two black willow leaves, spun them, and fell quietly in the dark and gloomy shadow.
