Lin Shuo left the courtyard and quickly walked towards the Taihu Ferry.
Along the way, Lin Shuo used the Wave Subtle Steps to travel. In just 15 minutes, he arrived at the Taihu Lake Ferry outside Suzhou.
"The fragrance of the lotus is ten acres long. Little aunt is greedy for fun and plucking lotus late. Come late to get wet at the bow of the boat, and take off your red dress to wrap the duck."
A singing voice rang out. The voice was gentle and innocent, and it was joyous and moving.
Lin Shuo was a little surprised as he looked up at Lake Tai.
He saw a small boat sailing on the lake. On the boat, he could vaguely see a woman. Clearly, this song was sung by that woman.
The woman seemed to have noticed Lin Shuo, and the boat slowly approached the ferry.
Lin Shuo's lips curled into a smile. Why did this scene look so familiar? Could this woman be Abby?
If it was really her, then wouldn't she have to call him Martial Aunt?
Lin Shuo remembered that Abby seemed to be Kang Guangling's disciple, which was also Su Xinghe's grand-disciple. Lin Shuo was Wu Xingyun's disciple and was of the same generation as Su Xinghe. Thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with Abby calling him grand-uncle!
Lin Shuo looked at the woman and said,""System, check her stats.”
"Ding…Name: Abby; Identity: The servant girl of the Murong family, the fourth generation successor of the Carefree Sect."Cultivation: Late third-rate."
“......”
It was indeed her!
It's just that Abby's cultivation is a little too low, right?!
Could it be that all her thoughts were placed on learning the piano?
However, it was also possible that Kang Guangling had only taught her the zither and not martial arts. She was Murong Fu's maid, so it was impossible for her to come into contact with advanced martial arts.
......
Not long after, the boat slowly docked at the ferry. Lin Shuo finally saw Abby's face clearly.
Her delicate hands were as white as jade, reflecting the green waves, as if they were transparent.
She was beautiful, although not as beautiful as Mu Wanqing, her face was gentle and her entire body was delicate.
Just like what was said in the original novel, 80% of her looks and 120% of her gentleness were not inferior to a 100% talented beauty.
"May I know where this young master is going?”
Abby asked as she docked the boat at the ferry.
Her voice was extremely sweet and clear, making one feel indescribably comfortable.
Lin Shuo smiled and said," I'm going to Mantuo Villa. Do you know?"”
"Mantuo Villa?"
A look of surprise flashed across Abby's beautiful eyes as she said,"Of course I know where Mantuo Villa is, but it's not a good place. I wonder why Young Master is going to Mantuo Villa?
Of course, I was only asking out of curiosity. If it's inconvenient for Young Master to say it, then just pretend that I didn't ask.”
Lin Shuo smiled calmly and said," There's nothing to hide. To be honest, Madam Wang of Mantuo Villa is the daughter of my senior uncle. This time, I came to Gusu and heard that she was staying at Mantuo Villa, so I went to visit her.”
Abby was speechless.
"Young Master, is what you said true?!”
Abby found it hard to believe. Lin Shuo was at most two or three years older than her, so how could he be Madam Wang's junior brother? After all, Madam Wang was her young master's aunt!
This was hard for Abby to believe. If Lin Shuo said that Madam Wang was her senior uncle or senior uncle, then Abby might not have suspected it. But if Lin Shuo was of the same generation as Madam Wang, it was really hard for her to believe.
Seeing Abby's expression, Lin Shuo's mouth twitched and he said,""I'm not lying. Madam Wang is indeed my Martial Uncle's daughter. I only learned from my Martial Uncle that I actually have a Senior Sister, so I came to visit.
Since you know the way to Mantuo Villa, I wonder if you can tell me. I'm very grateful.”
"This…"
Abby hesitated for a moment before saying," To tell you the truth, Madam Wang of Mantuo Villa is a relative of our Young Master. I happen to be returning home. If Young Master doesn't mind, I can send you on your way."”
Lin Shuo was delighted. He cupped his hands and said," Thank you, Miss. I am Lin Shuo. May I know your name? How should I address you?"”
Abby smiled sweetly and said," Young Master, you don't have to be so polite. I'm just a little girl who plays the zither and flute for my Young Master. I'm not worthy of being addressed as a young lady. Young Master, you can just call me Abby."”
"Then I'll call you Miss Abby.”
Lin Shuo smiled and boarded the boat.
Abby smiled gently and said,""Young Master Lin, please rest in the cabin.”
After saying that, Abby walked to the stern and rowed the boat slowly into Taihu Lake.
Lin Shuo felt a little bad for letting the little girl row the boat while he sat down to rest. He walked to Abby's side and said,""Miss Abby, let me do it. You only need to show me the way.”
Hearing this, Ah Bi shook her head and said," No, Young Master is Madam Wang's honored guest. Ah Bi can't let Young Master row the boat. Young Master, please take a seat. I'll be fine."”
“......”
Alright, since he didn't want to, Lin Shuo had no other choice.
Lin Shuo could only sit in the cabin and watch Abby row the boat quietly.
It seemed that she felt Lin Shuo's gaze trying to divert her attention, but it also seemed to be out of interest. Not long after, Abby's beautiful singing echoed on the lake.
In an instant, Lin Shuo was captivated by her singing.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Shuo came back to his senses and looked at Abby quietly, his eyes revealing a touch of pity.
Abby was not the most beautiful girl in the Sky Dragon World, but she was definitely the gentlest girl. She was so gentle that it made one's heart ache.
It was also because of her extreme gentleness that even in the end, when everyone left Murong Fu, she still accompanied him, even when Murong Fu had already gone crazy.
She never left him, accompanying Murong Fu every day in his dream of becoming the emperor.
It could be said that although Murong Fu was a failure, he was lucky to have Abby.
It was just that Ah Bi, this gentle woman, was suffering.
The more Lin Shuo thought about it, the more he felt that it wasn't worth it for Abby. After Abby stopped singing, he said,""Miss, your singing is so beautiful. May I know which great teacher you are from?”
Ah Bi smiled slightly and said," My master is Kang Guangling. I was fortunate enough to be under my master's tutelage. I learned music from my master for a few years. I'm sorry to make a fool of myself."”
Lin Shuo smiled and pretended to be surprised,""Miss Abby is one of the Eight Friends of Han Valley, Mr. Qin Dian's disciple?”
Abby was stunned. She blinked her eyes in confusion and said,"Does Young Master know my master?"
Lin Shuo nodded and said,"According to seniority, Mr. Qin Dian has to call me Martial Uncle."”
“......”
The smile on Abby's face gradually disappeared as she said awkwardly,""Young Master's joke is not funny at all.”
......
.....
Cough cough, thank you for your gift, sister. I'm extremely grateful!
