Chapter 209 Discrimination
The Zhao family was in a state of panic, and the other three families also had their own troubles.
In the spring, the rain continued to fall. Under the eaves, Shi Zelan sighed several times as she watched the falling rain.
"Sister Lan, are you looking forward to the rain stopping now?"
Shi Xiaoliu was flipping through a book in his hand, but when he heard Shi Zelan sigh several times, he held back his smile and asked her.
Shi Zelan sighed and said, "The story is already developing towards its climax, but it has been raining these few days, so we can't hear the most exciting news."
She stretched out her hand and waved it, and a ball of rain formed into a water ball in her hand.
Shi Zelan threw the water ball a few times, and then threw it out again.
On a whim, she said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, I'll go and close the gate to the yard.
Neighbors don’t hang out on rainy days. ”
Shi Zelan ran over and closed the yard gate. She made a protective barrier and slapped it on the yard door.
She took out the sword and swung it in the drizzling rain. Shi Xiaoliu watched for a while under the eaves and became interested.
He took out his sword and rushed into the yard, and the brother and sister fought directly in the yard.
Raindrops fell, but were blocked outside by their sword energy.
When Xia Yu walked over from the backyard, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan had already put away their swords and were sitting under the eaves drinking water.
Xia Yu arrived under the eaves and looked at their expressions: "Were you practicing swordplay just now?"
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan nodded at the same time and looked at Xia Yu: "What about you?"
Xia Yu sat down and stretched out his legs naturally: "Meditate and practice."
He looked up at the sky and asked Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan, "Do you think that when we get older, will we like to stay in temples and Taoist temples like our elders?"
Shi Xiaoliu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "The Taoist temple master is accomplished in medicine. My master lives in the Taoist temple to discuss medicine with the master."
Shi Zelan thought about it seriously: "The master is very knowledgeable. My master likes interesting people."
Xia Yu looked at the two of them and asked, "Did Wanyu send you any news?"
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan shook their heads at the same time. Shi Zelan sighed and said, "After she came to the capital this time, her relationship with me is even worse than before."
After hearing what Shi Zelan said, Xia Yu remembered the complaints Wan Yu had said in front of him, and for a moment he didn't know how to continue the topic.
For a moment, the three of them fell silent. There were sounds of people walking outside the yard gate and knocking on the door.
Shi Zelan pinched the magic spell towards the yard door, and Shi Xiaoliu ran over to open the yard door.
Aunt Liu stood outside the courtyard gate and handed a vegetable to Shi Xiaoliu: "This is the vegetable sent by my relatives. You can have a taste of it too."
Shi Xiaoliu took the dish and thanked Aunt Liu.
Aunt Liu looked through the courtyard door and asked, "Is Xiaolan doing needlework in her room?"
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "She is completing the writing task her master asked her to do."
"Shan Ye is too demanding of Xiao Lanzi. Xiao Lanzi doesn't have to take the imperial examination, so it's good enough for her to be able to read and write."
Aunt Liu left with a smile, and Shi Xiaoliu took the dishes to the kitchen.
He came out of the kitchen and saw two people sitting under the eaves. He shook his head and said, "Did you just become invisible?"
Shi Zelan nodded: "Aunt is a warm-hearted person. If she sees me and Xia Yu sitting together, I'm afraid she will think that Xia Yu and I are childhood sweethearts."
"Pfft." Shi Xiaoliu nodded with a smile, and Aunt Liu had the idea of helping Xia Yu and Shi Zelan to pull the red thread.
Xia Yu glanced at him and whispered, "After Wanyu stopped coming, Aunt Liu quietly told me that she thought Lan Jie'er was more suitable for me than Wanyu."
"Pfft." Shi Zelan couldn't help laughing and said to Xia Yu, "Aunt has a preconceived good impression of me."
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Xia Yu with sympathy and said with certainty: "Xia Yu, you have too many childhood sweethearts. Lan Jie'er is at most one of them."
Shi Zelan thought about it and nodded in agreement: "If people who grew up together can be considered childhood sweethearts, then I am indeed one of your childhood sweethearts."
Xia Yu's mood improved a little, and she said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "Wanyu and I have made it clear that there is no possibility of any other relationship between her and me."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan exchanged glances, and Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "We can't be too sure about things like this.
What if one day Wanyu ignores you, and you fall in love with her again? ”
Xia Yu couldn't help but tremble: "It's a terrible thing to think about it."
Shi Zelan stretched out her hand and waved, and the rain flew into her hands, and she rolled the water into water balls.
"Xia Yu, I heard someone say that the more impossible something is, the more likely it is to happen in the future."
"Sister Lan, this is because you've listened to too many stories."
"Xia Yu, have you never heard that lovers in the world eventually become siblings?"
Xia Yu nodded at Shi Zelan: "Have you heard of such a thing?"
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Xia Yu and Shi Zelan in surprise: "Where did you hear such a ridiculous thing?"
"Poof." Shi Zelan accidentally crushed the water ball. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and threw all the spilled water out of the eaves.
"Xiao Liu, when I was traveling, I heard people say that a son of a wealthy family rescued his father's concubine's daughter from outside."
Xia Yu spoke to Shi Xiaoliu calmly, but looked at Shi Zelan and objected: "Sister Lan, you should listen to less absurd things like this."
Shi Zelan looked at Xia Yu unconvinced, then turned to Shi Xiaoliu and said, "Xiaoliu, this is the fact.
Men attract peach blossoms outside, and when the peach blossoms bloom, perhaps one or two small peach blossoms will fall.
One day, the man's son met Xiao Taohua outside.
Things like love at first sight and commitment at first sight are all possible. ”
Shi Xiaoliu reached out and touched his arm: "This kind of thing will never happen in my family."
"My father is not a playboy either."
"I didn't say anything about your elders. I said something about the plausibility of the story."
Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu looked at each other, and Xia Yu whispered to Shi Xiaoliu, "Don't accompany her to the teahouse to listen to other people's nonsense in the future."
"We went to proper tea houses."
After Shi Xiaoliu said this, he suddenly remembered the topic that the neighbors were talking about a few days ago.
He sighed and said to Xia Yu, "You can't prevent things like this.
Have you thought about the gossip your neighbors said a few days ago?
It is raining now and there are not many people outside.
Otherwise, Sister Lan would definitely go to the well early to occupy a good position to listen to people gossip. ”
"Don't you like to hear what everyone says about what's happening in the capital?"
Shi Zelan looked at the two of them unconvinced, and Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu exchanged glances.
Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan: "We are learning to distinguish the truth from gossip."
