Chapter 439 - Two Years Later (1) 1
The raindrops dripped down from the eaves, making small puddles on the bluestone slab. In the birdcage hanging on the beam, the chirping of the yellow oriole and the crisp sound of the rain were even more beautiful than the music played by the best musicians.
At the end of the corridor, a young girl ran over in a hurry. This girl was wearing a peach-pink embroidered long dress. The color was bright and cute, but she held the corner of the dress with both hands and looked a little comical as she rushed over. Her skin was wheat-colored, and she looked lively and mischievous. As she rushed over, she shouted, “Little cousin! Little cousin!”
“Sister, slow down!” The young man behind her shouted, “The ground is slippery. Be careful not to fall!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the lively girl running in front staggered and almost fell down. Fortunately, she had some martial arts skills, so she stabilized herself with a light tap of her toes. She turned around angrily and complained to the young man, “Luo Qian, shut up, you jinx.!”
Luo Qian stuck out his tongue. Behind Luo Qian, two slender figures appeared, and a dissatisfied voice sounded, “Luo Tan, if you behave like this, no one will want to marry you.”
“Brother Sa!” Luo Tan stomped her feet anxiously. “If I can’t get married, I’ll marry Cousin Qiu!”
Luo Qian sneered. “Cousin Qiu won’t like a tigress like you.”
“Luo Qian!” Luo Tan raised her fist at him.
“Alright, stop fooling around.” The gentle young man walking at the back smiled and said, “Aren’t we here to talk to Cousin Miao? Let’s go.”
When they went to the innermost courtyard, they saw Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang moving the flowers outside. When they saw them, they quickly said, “Miss is waiting for you in the room.”
Luo Tan lifted the curtain and shouted, “Little cousin!”
The entire room was filled with the fragrance of flowers. A girl sat in front of the window. She was wearing a purple dress with jade patterns. Though in an extremely dark color, she did not look old at all. Instead, her skin was made as translucent as jade. The rain was pattering in front of the window. When she heard movement, she looked up slightly, revealing a delicate face.
She tilted her head and smiled. Her eyes were bright, but they made people’s hearts tremble. It was as if with a casual smile, this simple study became a palace made of carved jade, and she was the noble sitting on the high seat, looking down at everyone.
The people at the door were slightly stunned. Even though they had seen her many times, they were still occasionally shocked by this girl’s unintentional elegance.
After being stunned for a moment, Luo Tan was the first to react. She waved her hand and ran in, saying, “Cousin Miao, your dress is really beautiful!”
Shen Miao smiled. “If you like it, I’ll get the tailor to make one for you.”
