Chapter 631: A Flowerless Wedding
People from Mount Xumi came to Tianluo City to attend this grand wedding because they had no flowers.
As for the aristocratic families and city lords from all over the country, it is because of Tianluo City Lord that they like this kind of wedding scene.
Even some monks who came here because of their fame also traveled thousands of miles to come here because they wanted to take advantage of Tianluo City and Mount Xumi.
Only Xiaoqing and Xiaobai didn't like it very much. They were calm enough not to get excited about the grand event in front of them, not to mention that in their hearts, there was Li Xiuyuan staying in the inn.
Tang Qiuyu only hoped that the grand event would end soon so that she could return to the inn and have a good rest. After all, she felt uncomfortable staying here.
Lin Yueru didn't come here to attend this wedding, she just wanted to spend a few days with the young lady. After all, Shangguan Wushuang rarely went home since she married to the academy.
Amidst bursts of silk and bamboo ceremony music, the wedding of the Luo Xia family's children was finally settled. The newlyweds were sent to the bridal chamber, and the guests began to leave. They were waiting to return to the guest building for another drunken party.
After all, everyone is uncomfortable in the city lord's mansion.
The Lord of Tianluo City, his wife, butler and others sent the guests from Mount Xumi all the way to the outside of Tianluo City. In the eyes of the couple, it was a great joy for Mount Xumi to send people to attend the wedding without a big wedding.
How dare you let these distinguished guests stay in your house?
After seeing off the guests from Mount Xumi, Luo Tianci showed a satisfied smile on his face, looked at his wife and said with a smile: "After countless years of looking forward to it, Wu Hua's life-long event has finally been accomplished. In the future, my wife will spend more time with Princess Wutong.
"
Yu Furong was stunned, looked at him and said with a smile: "Why are you in a hurry? We have just gotten married, so you are in a hurry to hold your grandson."
But like Luo Tianci, she naturally hoped that Xia Wutong would give her a grandson soon, after all, her life was too monotonous.
On this day, Xia Wutong never rested since he left Xia Mansion.
Naturally, she didn't have time to notice whether Mu Mu came to attend her wedding. In her eyes, just seeing her husband and her master was enough.
What's more, there are Shangguan Wushuang's family, Hua Luoyu, Xiaoqing Xiaobai and others.
The joy of the auspicious day finally diluted the gloom we encountered in Jinguang Temple.
In her opinion, it was enough that Wu Hua doted on her and Wu Hua's mother Yu Furong also liked her. After decades of practice and waiting, she finally got married.
There is some joy and a touch of loss.
That faint feeling of loss I don’t know where it comes from.
Before half time, the husband took Tang Qiuyu and Xiaobai Xiaoqing back to the inn. Hua Luoyu, who had had a few more drinks, followed Guan Wushuang and his family back to the Yingbin Building to rest.
"Qiu Yu, you are tired too, go and have a rest." The gentleman looked at Tang Qiu Yu and said quietly.
Tang Qiuyu had long wanted to lie down and take a rest, so as soon as he returned to the inn, he ducked into his room.
Xiaobai followed Xiaoqing and hid in the house. The two of them held a few glasses of wine for their husband and became a bit drunk.
Only Mr. and Mu Mu were left in the huge living room.
"Sir, it should be very lively today." Mu Mu watched her husband come back. She had already lit a fire and boiled water, preparing to make a pot of tea to sober up her husband. She also thought that her brother would wake up soon.
The husband shook his head, frowned and said, "If it weren't for your wife, I definitely wouldn't have come."
Mu Mu smiled happily and said, "I thought so too. Did the princess come to Mu Mu today?"
She thought to herself that the most busy and tiring person today was probably the self-righteous woman, who would definitely have no time to pay attention to her.
"She is so busy that she has no time to trouble you." The gentleman smiled and said, "Let's take a rest today and leave here tomorrow morning."
Mu Mu's thoughts were not on this at all, and she became happy when she heard that she was leaving.
Looking at the husband, he said: "I also want to take my brother back to the Apricot Blossom Valley. Xiaobao will definitely miss Master and Master, and he can also give his mother and Master Hongxiu a big surprise."
The husband looked at her and said with a smile: "You say it's a surprise, but actually it should be said that it's a shock."
"Oh, my mother's cultivation level is not low now. This little stimulation won't be a problem for her."
Mu Mu said with a smile, a bright light flashed in her eyes, and continued: "It's Hongxiu Master, maybe it will scare her."
"Then don't scare them." Mr. Li Hongxiu and Xiaobao stayed at home with him, with a faint smile on his face.
"Sister, have you made tea? I'm thirsty!"
The door opened with a creak, and Li Xiuyuan walked out, rubbing his eyes.
Looking at the gentleman sitting in the living room, he smiled sheepishly and said, "I didn't expect that the gentleman has come back from the meal. Where are the master's wife, Xiaobai and the others?"
"Come and sit."
The teacher pointed to the stool in front of him and said with a smile: "They drank two more drinks and went back to the house to rest. What have you learned this morning?"
Mu Mu reached out to pour him a cup of tea and replied for him: "Brother is reading "The Enlightenment of Rhythm", which is the booklet he wrote in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion."
The gentleman nodded thoughtfully, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then laughed.
Holding a cup of hot tea and taking a sip, Li Xiuyuan asked puzzledly: "Sir, are you laughing at Xiuyuan for reading too few books?"
The teacher looked at him and sighed, and said leisurely: "For decades, I have been a student or a writer in my dream. It really means that I am a teacher. How can I laugh at you?"
Mu Mudi found it very interesting, took Li Xiuyuan's arm and said with a smile: "I can't explain it to you now, but my brother will naturally understand it in the future."
Li Xiuyuan then calmly held the teacup and continued to drink.
The wedding at the City Lord's Mansion on the Mid-Autumn Festival has nothing to do with the three masters and apprentices at the moment. The husband is thinking about how long he can stay with Li Xiuyuan, and Li Xiuyuan is thinking about going with his sister to meet the mother that the master mentioned earlier.
...
On the Mid-Autumn Festival, because there was a lot of wine and meat at midnight, the group of people just asked the inn clerk to prepare a few light side dishes for dinner.
In the hearts of everyone, a round person is more important than a round moon.
On the night of the full moon, Tang Qiuyu was in a good mood after a good sleep. She asked her husband to play the piano, saying that she had not heard the music of her husband since she gave birth to Xiaobao.
However, Xiaobai didn't think it was a big deal. He looked at Li Xiuyuan who was sitting aside in a daze and said with a smile: "My brother was on Tianshan Mountain and played the piano for Xiaobai."
Mu Mu glared at him and said, "Xiaobai, your skin is itchy. I'll ask Sister Xiaoqing to tighten it for you later."
The teacher turned to look at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "Xiuyuan, can you play the piano?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and timidly replied: "Xiuyuan doesn't have anything. This treasure to put things in is a gift from my sister."
The teacher looked at Tang Qiuyu and sighed, and said quietly: "Although this year's Mid-Autumn Festival can be regarded as a round one, it also lacks a few people in the Apricot Blossom Valley..."
After saying that, she moved everything on the table and Mumu quickly wiped away the tea stains.
Mr. Waite took out a xylophone and looked at Li Xiuyuan, but his heart skipped a beat, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
The gentleman took a silk scarf and gently wiped the piano body, looked at everyone and said: "This is the first time I am in Fengyun City. When I first met your wife...this is the piano she used back then.
Now it's on me."
Mu Mu smiled and said: "Mu Mu heard from my brother that the master's wife fell in love with the master's piano the other day..."
Tang Qiuyu looked at her and smiled: "Is there anything else that Mu Mu doesn't know?
Mu Mu shook her head and smiled: "Mu Mu has a good memory, and it's not like my brother who always loses his memory."
Xiaoqing and Xiaobai didn't say much, they sat quietly aside, just like Li Xiuyuan, waiting for their husband to play the piano and admire the moon.
The teacher tuned a tune, and notes like spring water in the mountains flowed out from the strings and drifted across the small courtyard towards the moonlight above the trees. Amid the tinkling sound, a faint fragrance arose.
Mu Mu looked at Li Xiuyuan, who was frowning at the side, and said, "The body of Master's piano is inlaid with a piece of agarwood that has lasted for a thousand years. As long as Mr. plays the piano, the fragrance will float out. It's a treasure."
Li Xiuyuan nodded thoughtfully, but he seemed to have returned to a certain place in a certain year and month.
At the moment, he is just a young monk in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and cannot yet travel through time and space to return to a certain moment, but his mind is gently singing to his teacher's piano music, as if he saw a group of butterflies coming smelling the fragrance.
And Mu Mu sang in the artistic conception of Mr. Qin's music: "When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I wonder what year it is today in the palace in the sky?"
Not to be outdone, Xiao Qing sang in chorus with Xiao Bai: "There shouldn't be any hatred, why would we be reunited when we say goodbye?"
Only Tang Qiuyu and Li Xiuyuan were stunned.
Tang Qiuyu seemed to have returned to the Tianshan Mountains. On the day when her husband took her over the mountains and ridges to meet his disciples, the young man who was accompanying a wolf and an ape in the mountain stream already had the intention of a sword in his words.
Li Xiuyuan recalled that after a snowy night, he was sitting in a hut in the middle of a bamboo forest, lowering his head and playing the piano, making the old man in his dream scream happily after waking up.
But what Mr. Whisper said in his mouth was: "Decades are like a dream, but reading is like a writer."
The sound of the teacher's piano is like the jingling spring water in the mountains, gently watering the newly sprouted green lotus, and also awakening Li Xiuyuan's past and present lives.
After playing the piano three times, the gentleman who stopped playing the piano looked at the frowning Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile, "Would you like to try it?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at his husband and timidly replied: "Sir, my mother never taught me..."
Mu Mu poked his hand and said softly: "Brother, try Mr.'s piano. You just need to close your eyes and play a few notes. Mu Mu wants to hear it."
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at her and asked, "Is it okay to close your eyes?"
"Okay, brother used to teach Mu Mu to practice swordplay with his eyes closed, so he just treated it like practicing swordsmanship with his eyes closed, hehe, it's very fun."
Thinking of how she picked flowers and flying leaves on Tianshan Mountain that day and how happy she was with Li Ye, Mu Mu couldn't help but want to relive it again.
The sister in front of Li Xiuyuan wanted to hear it. She couldn't help but look at the husband and asked: "Sir, can I do it?"
The gentleman did not speak, but quietly turned the instrument in one direction and placed it in front of him.
After thinking about it, the husband took another piece of agarwood, lit it, placed it on the table under the piano table, and said: "It doesn't hurt to try, just like Mu Mu said, close your eyes and try."
At this time, no matter Tang Qiuyu, Xiaoqing, or Xiaobai stopped talking, everyone wanted to witness the miraculous moment.
Li Xiuyuan looked at his husband and Mu Mu, took a deep breath, and as if he had made a lot of determination, he closed his eyes and touched the strings with his hands.
Mu Mu looked at Li Xiuyuan's appearance and couldn't help but reach out and hold his hands and gently placed them on the strings: "Don't be afraid, just think it's my brother who practiced swordsmanship with Mu Mu before!"
"Ding dong!" A string sounded.
When Mu Mu raised his hands, Li Xiuyuan's fingers hooked on the strings, making a sound like a mountain stream.
It was this ding-dong that was like a bright light lighting up in the dark night, opening a door that had been dusty for many years for Li Xiuyuan, who had closed his eyes.
Following this sound, he tried to pluck another string, like a child who had just put on new shoes and was reluctant to step on the ground while wearing them, so he had to jump forward.
However, this incomplete and continuous sound of the piano sounded like the sound of nature to the ears of Mr. and others, because Li Xiuyuan, with his eyes closed, plucked the third string.
Chapter completed!
