C9 Entering the Manor
Traceless revealed two rows of clean and flawless teeth and laughed heartlessly.
"This South Ridge Qin Family seems to be very powerful. I'm relieved that you're here!"
"I want to say thank you, but I know that everything you've done, how can it be exchanged for these two words? If it wasn't for the deep hatred in the Yutang Island. . . I really want to. . . I really want to follow you and roam the world with you! But. . . But. . . "
When Wuhen saw the tears that flowed out of her eyes, his heart ached.
" Don't cry, don't cry. In the past, the moon loved to cry. I would feel sad if I saw it! "
Mei Wantine felt as if she had been hit by a heavy hammer and her face suddenly turned pale.
"You can leave. I hope we will meet again!"
She suddenly felt a trace of loss in her heart. It was not a trace, but a kind of heart-wrenching disappointment.
Not for Wuhen, not for her own tragic past. It was for the bright moon that always appeared so carefree in Wuhen's mouth!
"Alright, if I have the chance, I will come here to see you!"
Wuhen grinned. However, this smile was neither bright nor brilliant.
See you again?
Wuhen shook his head. Could he live until the day we meet again?
Head Butler, who was standing on the stone steps, suddenly raised his voice. "Young Hero, since you are the young lady's friend and have troubled you with your journey, please stay behind and stay for a few days. How about it?"
Mei Wantine immediately turned her head to look at Wuhen, her eyes filled with anticipation. A sense of relief suddenly rose in her heart, which was originally filled with worry.
Wuhen really wanted to see the South Ridge Marquis Estate and the place where Mei Wantine would live in the future.
"Thank you for your kindness, Wuhen will naturally obey!"
He cupped his fists from afar, looking very much like a veteran of the Jianghu.
The two of them slowly followed Head Butler into the South Ridge's Marquis Estate.
They walked through several corridors and courtyards.
Finally, they arrived in front of a pavilion that was decorated with carvings and paintings.
Head Butler indicated for them to wait outside, then he went in alone to report.
A moment later, they saw a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old walking out with big steps. As he walked, he shouted, "Sister Wantine is here! Quickly come in! Father has been waiting here for a long time. "
Mei Wantine followed the sound and saw a young man dressed in brocade clothing. There was actually a golden lock hanging on his neck.
On his ten fingers, there were two large rings.
The jade belt was tied around his waist. At the place where the jade belt was tied, a dazzling white jade was shining. There was a crystal clear white jade pendant hanging from his waist.
His face was also handsome and unrestrained. His eyebrows were clear and beautiful, and his nose was red.
From the looks of it, he was even more graceful and elegant than Mo Li.
This young man was Young Lord of the South Ridge Marquis Estate, the eldest son of the South Ridge Marquis, Qin Feng, Qin Yaenjun.
When he saw Mei Wantine, he suddenly stopped five feet in front of her.
The girl in front of him seemed like a budding flower that was about to bloom. He only needed to wait for the time to sculpt to remove her somewhat young and immature look before he could turn everything in the world into gentleness in his palm.
She wore a pure white chiffon dress, and her waist-length black hair fluttered without wind.
Her eyebrows moved about, and her brows had a hint of makeup on them. The corners of her lips curled up slightly.
A beautiful woman with a bright moon in the night had arrived!
Qin Yaenjun seemed to be stunned when he saw this, and he said after a long time, "Little Sister is so beautiful!"
Mei Wantine bowed lightly, her face as calm as water.
Suddenly she saw that the person standing beside Mei Wantine was as thin as a monkey. His long hair was loose and his clothes were casual and traceless. She could not help but be stunned.
"This must be the young master of the Qin family, right? I, Wu Hen, greet young master Qin!"
Wu Hen looked at this luxurious young master and a different feeling flashed across his heart.
"If it wasn't for Wuhen's escort, I wouldn't have been able to come to the South Ridge!
Mei Wantine looked at Wuhen and said softly.
"So that's how it is. Thank you, Mr. Wu Henn, for escorting me along the way. Yaenjun is extremely grateful!"
The two of them followed Qin Yaenjun into the garret and living room. They saw a middle-aged man wearing a dark red brocade robe with flowers and birds embroidered on his clothes. He had a golden crown on his head and was lazily lying on the bed.
Three strands of a beautiful male beard floated in front of his chest, and he had two thick eyebrows. His pair of phoenix eyes looked somewhat similar to the one on the map.
Although Mei Wantine had only met Qin Feng once when she was a few years old, she could immediately tell that this person was the Marquis of South Ridge, Qin Feng, whose name shook the martial arts world and had a great reputation.
She immediately bowed and said, "Junior Mei Wantine greets Qin Uncle!"
Wuhen also bowed and greeted him.
Qin Feng slowly sat up and sized her up. He extended his hand and gently stroked the three strands of long beard.
"Virtuous Niece, why did you suddenly come all the way to South Ridge by yourself?"
Qin Feng's tone was gentle, but there was a sense of dignity and pride in it.
"This junior's family has experienced a great change. The Yutang Island has become the purgatory of the human world. Wantine has no other choice but to come and seek refuge with Uncle!"
Qin Feng, who had been calm all this time, suddenly froze and slowly stood up.
"What? Yutang Island. . . How is your daughter, Piao Ping?"
"In order for me to escape, mother has to stall the enemy. In the end. . . In the end. . . !"
Tears slowly flowed down Mei Wantine's face as she raised her head to look at Qin Feng.
"I hope Uncle will take her in and let Wantine have a place to stay!"
"Virtuous Niece, what are you saying? Not to mention that you are already engaged to my good-for-nothing son, Yan'er, even though I have been friends with your father and your family for many years, I cannot ignore Virtuous Niece! Since your niece has come to my Qin family. . . Rest in peace. Uncle will take care of everything for you!"
His words were sincere and full of sincerity.
Mei Wantine's face quickly regained its calm. She did not cry, nor did she cry. She just gave a very indifferent bow.
"Thank you, Qin Uncle, for taking me in!"
Qin Feng turned to look at Wuhen and said. "Who is this young man?"
Wuhen bowed and said, "Junior Wuhen greets Lord Marquis!"
Qin Feng waved his hand and smiled. "Young Hero need not be overly courteous! Since you are Wantine's friend, you are also a distinguished guest of my manor! "
"Wantine's journey was very dangerous. If not for Wuhen saving her first and escorting her all the way, Wantine would probably never be able to reach here. "
Mei Wantine said slowly.
Qin Feng stroked his long beard and nodded. "Young Hero is warm-hearted. I admire him! I will ask Young Hero to stay here for a few days no matter what, so that my South Ridge Marquis Estate can perform the hospitality of a host! "
Wuhen bowed and thanked him. He thought to himself, "Not only does this South Ridge Marquis have an imposing appearance, but he also has a good bearing. Furthermore, the Mei and Qin families are still engaged. It seems like Wantine will be at ease if she stays in the Qin family. "
At this moment, Qin Yaenjun, who was standing by the side, said respectfully, "Sister, you have come from afar. The journey will be tiring. You should rest for a day first. If there is anything you need help with, we can talk about it after you have rested enough. "
Mei Wantine did not even look at him one more time. Even though this Young Lord from the South Ridge Marquis Estate was her future husband.
The three of them walked out of the pavilion and saw four maids, two old nannies, and two Courtyard Guards waiting outside.
When they saw Mei Wantine and Wuhen come out, they all bowed in unison.
"Greeting Eldest Miss!"
The six of them were in perfect sync. Clearly, they had undergone strict training.
Two Courtyard Guard led Wuhen to a courtyard to settle down.
Mei Wantine was indeed a young lady when she was in Yutang Island. However, she had never shown such extravagance before.
"These people were sent to serve little sister. If little sister is not satisfied, just let me know at any time. I will immediately send someone else for you!"
Qin Yaenjun led the way in front, and four servants followed closely behind.
"Wantine is flattered by Uncle's arrangement!"
"My younger sister is a distinguished guest of my manor. Now that she has come to my manor, she is the Eldest Miss of this manor. Naturally, we have to make arrangements according to the standards of the Eldest Miss. "
Qin Yaenjun had always been very enthusiastic and appeared to be a little cautious.
He passed through the garden, the winding corridors, the waterside pavilion, and finally arrived at a unique and elegant courtyard at the back of The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China.
There were three words engraved on the surface of a full-moon marble door - Wind Listening Pavilion.
There were begonia, the moon, and a lush green bamboo growing in the courtyard.
At this moment, the flowers were blooming, and the fragrance of the flowers in the courtyard was pleasant.
The courtyard was quiet and quiet, which was what Mei Wantine liked.
When she was in Yutang Island, she liked quiet places. There were many people there and she rarely went there.
"This small courtyard was specially prepared for younger sister. Is younger sister satisfied?"
She pushed open the door and entered. A sweet fragrance assailed her nose.
The room was spacious and bright, and all of the furniture seemed to have been bought recently. It was clean and bright, spotless and spotless.
The bed was even made of high-quality pear wood. It was a pink curtain, and the top of its head was covered in tassels that swayed with the wind. It was luxurious and simple.
The complicated and beautiful cloud silk on the bed was like rippling water. It was incomparably soft.
From time to time, a wave of sandalwood fragrance would drift over and seep into one's heart and spleen, calming one's mind.
Beside the bed was a window. It was an exquisite carving and rare wood.
Outside the window was a charming scene. There was a fake mountain, a small pond, a green lotus root, and a pink lotus.
At a glance, it was refreshing.
What surprised and surprised her was that on the right rack, there was a burnt-tailed guzheng with a full moon string.
Mei Wantine quietly stood in front of the window. A gentle breeze blew, bringing in a burst of flower fragrance.
"Younger sister, if you are satisfied, then rest here first!"
Mei Wantine lightly bowed and said, "Sorry to trouble brother Qin family. Wantine is very grateful!"
"Younger sister need not be polite with me. You and I are a family. Yaenjun was extremely happy to see his sister here. As long as my sister is happy, it will be hard on her. Yaenjun will gladly accept it! "
After saying that, he bid farewell and left.
Before he left, he turned around and said, "You must do your best to take care of Eldest Miss. Do not slack off at all!"
The maidservants and old nannies bowed in unison and agreed. Only then did he slowly turn his head back three times and leave.
Mei Wantine waited for Qin Yaenjun to leave before she slowly turned around. There was a melancholy look on her face and she suddenly sighed softly.
The six servants stood with their heads lowered. There was complete silence.
Mei Wantine glanced at them and softly said, "All of you can leave. I will rest for a while first!"
The two maidservants were quick to react. One of them went to spread out the bedding and the other went to get hot water.
Mei Wantine had grown up since she was young. When had she received such treatment? For a moment, she was at a loss of what to do.
Fortunately, these maidservants had been trained for a long time. Everything was done in an orderly manner.
Mei Wantine lay quietly on the bed. Her body and mind were indeed extremely tired, but she could not fall asleep no matter what.
What was shaking in front of her eyes was the scene of Yutang Island facing a calamity. It was the scene of her mother risking her life to entangle with a strong enemy and dying with hatred.
It was the scene where the butler, Mei Si, risked his life to protect her from the devil claw despite the fact that she was seriously injured.
Suddenly, Wu Hen's lean face jumped out again. His eyes were like the stars in the night sky, and he had a bright smile that never had any worries or worries.
"Little monkey. . . "
She silently muttered in her heart as the corners of her mouth revealed a trace of a smile.
A trace of a sorrowful smile!
