11 Harmony of piano and flute
Xiao Tingyun sat in front of the piano. He raised his hand to touch the strings to test the music. Then smooth music rang out like running water.
The birds were startled and flapped their wings and flew away. The branches were shaken by the noise, and the sparse sounds added a bit of artistic conception.
The sound of the piano not only startled the birds, but also startled Pei Yuning on the other side.
The person holding the case file raised his eyes slightly and frowned slightly.
"Zhang Quanfu, go..."
Suddenly, a smooth and pleasant piano sound floated over.
The song is leisurely and graceful, and is particularly special, with a hint of tranquility in its brightness.
Pei Yuning suddenly stood up with his hands raised by his clothes. Seeing this, Zhang Quanfu ordered someone to open the window, and the voice could be heard more clearly.
clang!
In the late night, with light rain and flying swallows, the light and quiet piano music suddenly becomes soul-intoxicating.
Sometimes slow, sometimes heavy, flowing clouds and water, with raindrops tapping gently, all just right.
"This song should only exist in heaven, how often can it be heard in the world..." Pei Yuning's eyebrows moved slightly and he chuckled.
After a long time, the sound of the piano stopped, but it seemed like the lingering sound lingered in the air for a long time.
Xiao Tingyun pressed down the strings of the zither, stopped playing and sat upright.
He exhaled lightly and asked the girls with a smile, "How is this song?"
Green branches and orchid branches don't understand music, but they sound very nice for some reason.
"Miss, you play the piano so well. It makes me feel calm when I listen to it!" Lanzhi praised while clapping.
Xiao Tingyun smiled and was about to speak when the sound of a flute was suddenly heard.
"Hey? It sounds like someone is playing the flute?" Lanzhi leaned over curiously.
Xiao Tingyun concentrated, and after a while, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked out the window in disbelief...
It was the song she just played? !
And it’s exactly the same!
Xiao Tingyun lowered his eyebrows, his long eyelashes cast a circle of shadows under his eyes, and then he laughed softly.
With a thought, and finding the right opportunity, the white hands turn and the sound of the piano flows.
Be in harmony with it and let it complement each other.
The sounds of the flute and the piano seem particularly ethereal in the quiet night. Although we are strangers, we can still become friends through the music.
The two seemed to have found a confidant, one the main and the other the supporting, and it didn't feel weird at all, but rather unusually harmonious.
Both of them were very happy and after the song, they both felt a little unsatisfied.
Pei Yuning had a smile in his eyes, and the wind blew past him, and he relaxed his mind for a rare moment.
At the same moment, Xiao Tingyun also had a smile on his face.
The mist and rain became thicker and thicker. She thought that if she had the chance to meet him again, she would definitely ask him his name...
***
Song Wanrou took a few people to pay their last respects to the Buddha statue.
He also ordered people to donate one thousand taels of incense money.
Just set out and returned to the Xiao family in Kyoto.
In the carriage, Song Wanrou asked, "Did you play the piano last night?"
Xiao Tingyun raised his eyes to look at his mother, recalling what happened last night, still feeling a little unsatisfied, "Yes."
The daughter looked very happy, and Song Wanrou also smiled, "When the harp and flute play together, hundreds of birds cannot compete. I am also lucky enough to hear such wonderful music, but I wonder who has this skill and can recognize the music?"
Xiao Tingyun shook his head. "I asked someone to look for him in the morning, but he was nowhere to be found. The monks in the temple also don't know where he is."
Hearing this, Song Wanrou was very surprised.
Although my daughter is a little weak physically, she is as stubborn as a boy.
Even his father-in-law said that among his sons and grandchildren, Ayun was the most like him.
When Ayun returned to Beijing, several of her brothers and sisters-in-law were interested in becoming relatives. After asking, they found out that both of her sons and nephews were interested in Ayun.
Song Wanrou thought about it again and again and felt that it was feasible.
When she asked Xiao Tingyun later, she simply said, "He's just a brother." This stopped her from considering many things.
She knew then that her daughter was a person with a body as thin as a willow but a heart as hard as a rock.
In the following days, his personality was calm but he still had his mind set.
Suddenly I became interested in a person playing the flute. I was afraid that my heart was moved by the wind.
"Ayun, what do you think that person--" Song Wanrou wanted to ask.
Xiao Tingyun understood his mother's thoughts immediately, and felt helpless and amused. "Mother, what are you thinking about? I just think it's not easy to meet a bosom friend in this world, so I just want to make friends with him."
She thought it should be him...
I just wanted to confirm it again.
This made Song stop asking questions, but when she thought about what her husband said, she still felt a little worried.
"Is mother hiding anything from me recently?" Xiao Tingyun asked softly, but he looked into Song's eyes without hesitation.
Song's heart skipped a beat, she looked away and said casually, "Nothing happened, you're just worrying too much."
Xiao Tingyun didn't ask any more questions, thinking of making plans after returning.
After entering the city, Xiao Tingyun heard the bustling sounds of hawking.
I couldn't help but feel a little curious. I was in a hurry to leave the city before, and Xiao Jian'an was in the carriage, so I didn't have time to take a closer look.
When I opened one side of the curtain, I could see the bustling streets of Kyoto.
Passing by a restaurant - Tianxianglou.
Thinking of the roasted lamb I had eaten before, I felt so blessed.
"Mother, I want to buy some things." Xiao Tingyun asked Song Wanrou.
"What to buy?" Song Wanrou asked.
Xiao Tingyun changed the subject and said, "Didn't you say you were going to a banquet in a few days? It's rare for me to go out, so I want to buy some jewelry."
Song Wanrou glanced at her daughter's headdress, which was only a jade hairpin, and couldn't help but laugh, "You didn't even look at the jewelry I picked for you before. You wore such plain clothes all day long. Are you finally only aware of dressing yourself up?"
Xiao Tingyun would never say that he just didn't want to dress up and pretend to be shy and unable to answer.
It was rare to see her daughter's demeanor, and Song's heart softened. "Forget it, let's stop for a while and let your elder brother and sister-in-law go and take a look."
"Thank you, mother!" Xiao Tingyun leaned on Song Wanrou's shoulder and acted coquettishly.
The place he passed by happened to be the largest jewelry shop in Kyoto - Lanyuelou.
After Xiao Tingyun got off the carriage, he secretly told Lvzhi to go to Tianxiang Tower.
Luzhi immediately understood what her young lady meant, nodded, and quietly left the street.
Xiao Heming, a man, was not in a position to enter his daughter's jewelry shop. After instructing the servant to report to him immediately if there was anything, he took his son to the teahouse to listen to stories.
Chen Lan and Xiao Tingyun were on Song Wanrou's left and right, and when they came in, they were accompanied by waiters.
"What would the three distinguished guests like to see?" The waiter was a discerning man. He saw that the visitor had an extraordinary demeanor. Although the girl on the right was wearing a veil, it did not hinder her noble temperament.
Xiao Tingyun turned his head and saw that the shopkeeper was entertaining a lady in gorgeous clothes and didn't see them.
"Is there a private room upstairs? We want to see some of the best." Song was straightforward and didn't want to waste any more words.
The waiter was delighted, thinking it was a big deal, and he quickly greeted them, "Yes, yes! Please come upstairs!"
He led everyone into the private room and said with a smile, "Ladies, please wait a moment."
Chen Lan said to Xiao Tingyun happily, "Thanks to my third sister, my husband was able to take An Ge away today, so the three of us can have a good stroll."
Song Wanrou was a little amused, "Why are you thanking her? She didn't come here for the headwear or jewelry."
Shen Lan was surprised, "What?"
