Chapter 16: Abstinent Scholar
Ning Wan huddled in Lin Yuanxi's arms, and when she stepped into the gate of the Lin Mansion, she was also a little stunned.
The mansion with five entrances and five exits is surrounded by white walls outside the courtyard, shaded by green willows, and the cornices and galleries inside are very grand. Because it is the Qingming solar term**, there are groups of slaves coming and going, all bowing and walking lightly, appearing to be orderly.
**The first day of the fifth solar term in the traditional Chinese lunisolar calendar, the 15th day after the spring equinox (April 4 or 5). Tomb Sweeping Day, an annual Chinese holiday observed on that day.
As soon as Lin Yuanxi stepped into the lobby, he saw a room full of luxuriously dressed people.
After not seeing his relatives for a long time, Lin Yuanxi greeted them and said, "Grandmother, father, mother, the child is back to greet you."
Among them, a silver-haired but hale and hearty old woman's eyes turned red, and she got up to help her personally. Living in Lin Yuanxi: "Grandson, you are back! Grandma misses you."
"Your grandson misses you too." Ning Wan secretly hid behind Lin Yuanxi, observing carefully. The eyes that looked at Lin Yuanxi were all sincere and protective, and even the maid who waited on the side glanced over from time to time; presumably, Lin Yuanxi was well-loved at home. No wonder he couldn't concentrate on studying.
It wasn't until everyone had expressed their excitement to see Lin Yuanxi that they noticed a snow-white little dumpling behind him.
Madam. Qi was the first to ask, "Yuanxi, where did this little fox come from?"
Hearing that Lin Yuanxi hugged Ning Wan and sat down at the bottom, a smile appeared on his usually cold and serious face: "This is a little pet I picked up on the mountain; it’s very cute, and I like it very much."
The grandmother instinctively disliked these animals, frowned, and said, "Grandson, if you are lonely on the mountain, bring a few trustworthy people with you as you go up the mountain to wait on you."
"Thank you, grandma, for your kindness; if this is the case, then the grandson won't need to go up the mountain."
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of laughter from outside, and the wanton and clear laughter came out between the words.
Hearing this voice, Ning Wan's whole body's hair trembled instinctively, and she was startled... It really is the heroine Gu Lanyin in the original book, so it turned out that their first meeting was really in the Lin Mansion...
While thinking about it, a 28-year-old girl with several children came in like a gust of bright wind. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and her appearance was peerless. The kind of noble bearing raised by an aristocratic family is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Ning Wan quietly looked at the man above her head, and seeing that he was still looking cold and indifferent, with no waves in his eyes, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
"Did you finish flying the kite, Yin'er?"Every wrinkle on the grandmother's face was full of smiles, "My good boy, come and sit down next to your cousin."
Gu Lanyin replied crisply, her eyes turning towards Lin Yuanxi. Scanning over there, she saw the scholar who was supposed to be her cousin, but he didn't look at her at all. At first glance, a strong figure that looks like a dragon walking like a tiger but wearing a long robe and with a bookish atmosphere that those warriors don't have piqued her interest, as did his ignorance of himself. She became competitive.
Which young man in Shangjing didn't bow his head and listen to him, and was he the only one who didn't admire her?
He held a snow fox in his arms, and stared at him with his dark eyes.
She hates this little thing. Look at its smooth hair. When she conquers her cousin, she will definitely ask for it to be skinned and made into a gorgeous fox fur cape. She was thinking like this, but she didn't stop walking. She kept smiling and sat on the lower head of Lin Yuanxi and said angrily, "Cousin doesn't seem to like Yin'er very much?"
A strange feeling flashed down. Why did my heart feel a little strange when I saw this woman?
