Chapter 145: Master's Wife Really Doesn't Want Us Anymore
The flute was their token of love in the past, but now that their love is gone, it has no meaning to them.
"I will!" Tao Fengzhi was secretly happy: If Master Lin returns Master Jiang's flute, then he can take my flute.
Playing with the jade kite flute in his hand, Tao Fengzhi felt that there was nothing good about it. The texture was poor and the engraving was not beautiful.
The two chatted for a while, and then Tao Fengzhi stood up and left. He couldn't wait to return this thing to Master Jiang.
Lin Xuxi saw him leave with brisk steps and smiled helplessly.
"How is Master's Wife?" Wei Yuyun was indeed outside.
But there is not only Wei Yuyun, but also Yan Chuhua and Zhou Jingyue, as well as Jianhui who is hiding aside and has little presence.
"Master Lin is very good." Tao Fengzhi said, took out his hands and presented them, explaining: "Master Lin asked me to give this thing to you, please return it to Master Jiang."
Seeing this, Wei Yuyun did not reach out. He remembered the flute and asked, "Did Master's wife ask you to give me this Jade Harrier Flute?"
"Master Lin wants you to pass it on to Master Jiang. Master Lin means that this flute is a token of love. Now that the love is over, the item should be returned." More than just returning it, it should be completely severed!
Wei Yuyun looked at the Jade Harrier Flute but didn't reach out to take it. He thought back to that rainy night. When he was young, he didn't like the rain and would always run to find his master's wife when it rained.
The first time he saw the Jade Harrier Flute was on a rainy night.
"Your handwriting is better than mine." Jiang Sihan compared their calligraphy and sighed, "You are always better than me in everything, even your handwriting. But I can't compare to you in anything."
"Your regular script is smooth and gentle, just like you. You are a very gentle person." Lin Xuxi took the initiative to shake his Taoist partner's hand and said with a smile, "My running script is fluent and lively, just like me. People should not be compared, and neither should calligraphy. In my heart, you are the best."
Wei Yuyun was only seven or eight years old at the time, and it was his first year at Fushan. He leaned against the doorway, peeking inside. The steam outside chased him, and he wanted to go in.
Lin Xuxi was the first to notice someone coming. He put down his pen, walked around the treasure cabinet and went to the main reception hall, where he saw a little head sneaking around the door.
"Why is Yun'er here?"
"Master's Wife." Wei Yuyun stood at the threshold, like a child who had made a mistake. He didn't dare to come in, even though the humid air behind him made him feel uneasy. He still didn't dare to cross the line.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Sihan's tone was obviously not good. He had no feelings for this disciple and didn't understand why he came so late.
Although Wei Yuyun was young, he could tell that his master disliked him. He hunched his shoulders and stood there twiddling his fingers like a little quail.
"Your hair is all wet from the whole trip here." Lin Xuxi took out a handkerchief and wiped the water droplets off Yun'er's hair. She asked, "Why did you come here so late instead of resting?"
"I, I don't like the rain," Wei Yuyun said hoarsely. Grandma's voice trembled slightly, sounding quite pitiful.
In addition, the redness in his eyes and the whiteness of his lips like paper made it clear that he didn't dislike her but was afraid of her.
"Come in." Lin Xuxi was reluctant to ask him why he was afraid, so she led him in. She pulled him to sit on a stool, moved the incense burner, and said soothingly, "Let the sandalwood dispel the dampness."
"Yeah." Wei Yuyun sat up straight, head down, not daring to say anything.
Jiang Sihan walked over naturally, stood beside Xier, and asked softly, "What's wrong with him?" He was gentle only to his Taoist partner.
Wei Yuyun was like a child who had made a mistake. He knew that coming here at this time would disturb his master and his mistress, so he lowered his head even more.
"Maybe he missed us." Lin Xuxi explained with a smile: "After all, he is still young. The light rain brings out melancholy. He must have remembered something."
Lin Xuxi did not explicitly say that Wei Yuyun was afraid. She knew very well that Wei Yuyun was a proud person. Even as a child, he did not want to be looked down upon, especially by his relatives.
Wei Yuyun glanced secretly at his master's wife and smiled sweetly.
"She's still a child after all." Lin Xuxi rubbed Yun'er's head, then turned around and said with some complaint: "You've been drinking tea from his master, you shouldn't be like this."
"I understand." Jiang Sihan also listened obediently, took Xier's hand and said with a smile: "Fushan will have more and more disciples in the future."
"Yes." Lin Xuxi glanced at Wei Yuyun, leaned over and tapped his nose, and said with a smile: "Yun'er is so smart, you must help Master and his wife in the future."
"Yeah!" Wei Yuyun nodded vigorously as if he was needed.
But the rain outside suddenly got heavier, and the raindrops hit the roof with a crackling sound.
Wei Yuyun's face turned even paler.
"Yun'er, you have never heard me play the flute, right? Master's wife plays the flute very nicely, would you like to listen to it?" Lin Xuxi took the initiative to suggest.
Wei Yuyun smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay!" He had never heard his master's wife play the flute and was very much looking forward to it.
Hearing this, Jiang Sihan walked around the treasure chest and took out a long red brocade box from the drawer of the desk. He then came back and said with a smile, "The Jade Harrier Flute has been silent for a long time. You didn't even have time to play it for me."
"Ah."
Wei Yuyun thought of that day when he, his master's wife and his master were sitting around the incense burner, with the aroma lingering in the air and the sound of the flute lingering in the distance.
"Fellow Daoist Wei." Tao Fengzhi was also a little surprised to see him staring at the flute in a trance. He asked, "What's wrong with this flute? It keeps staring at him in a trance."
"Nothing." Wei Yuyun took the Jade Harrier Flute with both hands. He looked at the end of the flute and saw that the willow-leaf-shaped jade pendant was gone. Did Master's Wife put it away?
He hadn't heard his master's wife play the flute for more than ten years.
What wonderful memories! At that time, he secretly swore that he would repay his master's wife and share their worries in the future. But how did he become such a bastard?
"Jade Harrier Flute, Jade Harrier Flute." Master's Wife really didn't want them anymore. Wei Yuyun clutched the flute tightly and asked, "Master's Wife won't see us?"
"Yes, she said she was in a bad mood after seeing you." Tao Fengzhi told the truth, not worried at all about hurting anyone.
Wei Yuyun nodded helplessly and said, "Okay."
"Everyone, please go back first. Master Lin is very kind." Knowing that these people could not be driven away, she said a few words and left first.
"Big Brother." Yan Chuhua naturally knew this person and asked in a hoarse voice, "The Jade Harrier Flute is a token of love between Master and Master's Wife. She even played it for me before. Now that Master's Wife doesn't want the flute, does that mean she doesn't want us either?"
His worst fear had come true.
"Oh." Wei Yuyun just sighed, holding the flute tightly and holding back tears, he said: "I will go find the master, maybe, maybe he can make the master's wife change her mind." His throat was tight.
"Senior Brother, can I go with you?" Zhou Jingyue thought that his master had loved him in the past, so maybe what he said would be useful.
There is always a difference between the oldest disciple and the youngest disciple, and they both hope that this difference can persuade the master.
"Ah."
Jiang Sihan was wondering why Wei Yuyun was nowhere to be found. He asked Yan Yao to look for her, but she was nowhere to be found. Just as he was thinking about whether to ask Zhihe to look for her, someone showed up.
"Where have you been?" Jiang Sihan asked in a bad tone.
