Chapter 31 Pear Blossoms Like Clouds
Chapter 31 Pear Blossoms Like Clouds
"I used to go to Yinliu Town to receive the goods. This year, I changed to here because Er Xue Te is too big there. I didn't expect to meet you!" In the restaurant, the hot white gas from the stove continued to pour out of the window. Qiu Liluo sat behind him and rubbed his red fingers. Okay? I won't visit her because she will remember what happened in the mansion that day."
Lu Jingyun took the hat and put it on the table, poured tea for the little eunuch, but asked for a pot of wine for himself, "Grandma's body is not as strong as before, no matter how much supplements she takes, she won't be able to break the knot in her heart."
"Brother Yun has learned to drink now?" Qiu Li looked at the jug in surprise.
"I gather ginseng on the mountain. At night, I have to rely on wine to warm myself up, and I will eat it slowly." Lu Jingyun stirred the rice-white fish soup with a wooden spoon. to bring back to my grandmother.
Qiu Li raised his head to look at him, and felt that his complexion was a little darker than that of the mansion, but the heroic spirit between his brows was still high-spirited and compelling... No wonder the young master was obsessed, he praised with a smile: "Brother Yun, I listened to Yu Datou. Of the genuine looks I picked, you invited several of them. Sure enough, you can make a name for yourself wherever you go."
Lu Jingyun still lowered his eyes lightly, raised his glass and took a sip of wine, "It's just a coincidence, I still have too many things to learn." The wine burned all the way down his throat to his lungs, and the burning pain seemed to make He temporarily forgot the soreness that suppressed the heartbeat... It was the same when he was on the mountain. Whenever he sat in front of the bonfire and watched the flames beat, or looked up at the stars alone, he would think of him... But what should he be thinking about? When asked, he already had 10 million impulses in his heart, but his mouth was still tightly closed...
The two ate some fish and meat around the pot. Qiu Li saw that he didn't mention Xu Fu at all, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he couldn't help frowning and said: "Lu Jingyun, Lu Jingyun, I really don't know what to say to you. What's good... do you really think I came to Yuanbao Town because of the heavy snow?"
When Lu Jingyun heard the thunder, he suddenly raised his head and put the chopsticks beside the bowl, Qiu Li saw that his deep eyes were instantly dyed crimson, only then did he know that he also remembered, "You were beaten because of him. , but he spent more than one sentence or two for you."
"How...how is he?"
"It wasn't very good a few days ago... But now I have gone to Liaobei City to study high school, and I may have to take the entrance exam next year. After you left, something happened in the house, and the master also felt tired and tired..." Qiu Li The expression was a bit complicated, "The third wife was hanged..."
The suicide in the house is nothing more than related to the scandal. It didn't take long for Lu Jingyun and Xu Jiangmian to hear about the affair in the summer. Because it happened in the Lixiang Pavilion, it was naturally related to the fourth wife. In addition to the Lu Jingyun incident, Xu Yiqin had no confidence in her, and was even more angry. He wanted to immerse her in a pig cage, but at this time Xu Jiangmian, who had never asked about the government's affairs, stood up and begged his father to give him two days, saying that the matter was to be investigated... He called all the maids' wives to ask questions, and again I took them to the inside and outside of Lixiang Pavilion for a few laps, and finally checked the items in the two wives' courtyards to restore the truth of the matter...
It turned out that after the fourth wife was favored, the third wife held a grudge and bought the maid next to the fourth wife. If the master was not in Lixiang Pavilion, he would infuse her with a soothing incense, and then find a pair of male and female servants in the side room. If you do a foolish thing, you will be framed. The housekeepers found a lot of jewelry in the maid's bag. She was frightened and gave up the third wife. At first, the third wife did not recognize it, but the housekeepers found a few terrifying items in her room. The little paper man is writing the three characters Liu Manqing, which also shows the fact...
"The young master originally had the purpose of saving the fourth grandmother's life, but he never thought that the third grandmother was a strong one, and it would be hard to imagine if the matter was revealed... You also know that the young master has a good heart, and you always feel that although the third grandmother harms people, she is not guilty of death... When you left, he lost his friends, got caught in the rain, and caught the wind-cold. He was even more sad when this happened. In the autumn, the wind-cold turned to lung heat, and he was in a coma for several days... Doctor Qi said that if it continues like this , I'm afraid it will be bad..."
When Qiu Li said this, seeing Lu Jingyun's head bowed deeply and his shoulders trembling non-stop, he couldn't help shedding tears. The two of them calmed down for a while before Qiu Licai said: "In those few days, Master thought about it, he Finally, I agreed to let the young master go to Liaobei High School, and the young master's illness gradually improved, but the doctor said that the root cause of the disease might fall... When the young master was leaving, he asked me, if you go north to pick up goods, remember to look for your news, if you find anything Write a letter to let me know... that I have come to Yuanbao Town." Qiu Li's implication could not be more clear, Xu Jiangmian was ill to investigate the incident to save the fourth wife, mostly because she was his biological mother...
Outside the window, the wind picked up again, stirring up the snow particles that had just rested for a while, and the cold air poured in mercilessly from the cracks. Lu Jingyun wiped his tears, and now his nose is sore again, he is secretly obsessed. The sincere and beautiful young man, although he never dared to hope, and knew that he should not hope, but the young man would rather bear the guilt and torment himself, but he gave him the coefficient of kindness that is the most genuine in this world...
Like the bright spring light caressing the heart, although it is short-lived, it can warm a lifetime. After tasting the bitterness, you can see that only true love is precious in the world. In this life, he may encounter another person who treats him like this.
A few days later, Qiu Licai had enough goods, so he took the convoy south. Lu Jingyun planned to follow the convoy to Liaobei, but his grandmother suddenly couldn't get out of bed. Can't see anything, just say that he is old, let him take good care of the rest.
People are old and fragile. Lu Jingyun is always afraid of what will happen if he is not careful. He doesn't sleep in the next room at night, and only stays in front of her bed all night. He can clearly feel that his grandmother's hands are getting colder and colder. the more powerless...
The old lady had endured the most difficult winter, but she died when spring came. The sunset was very warm that afternoon, and she seemed to be in better spirits. She told Lu Jingyun that she wanted to eat candied haws. Seeing her appetite, Lu Jingyun hurriedly went out to buy it. At this time, there were not many people selling candied haws. He ran several streets to find a stall, but the hawthorn fruit was sold out, so he had to buy an orange one. , a yam, and ran back to the house sweating profusely. When he saw his grandmother lying on the kang with her back to the door, he said, "Grandma, the hawthorn fruit is sold out..."
After he said this, he suddenly found that the room was extremely quiet. In fact, his grandmother was lying on the bed silently on weekdays, but at this moment he had a strong premonition, he walked up slowly and called her After a few beeps, she still didn't respond. At this time, Lu Jingyun saw a small pen in the old man's hand, and a few words were written crookedly on the mattress.
"One has to look forward, don't look back. Yes..."
Maybe she meant to write sorry. Lu Jingyun wiped the tears on his face with his cuff, took off a small yam egg wrapped in sugar juice on the bamboo stick, and put it in his grandmother's mouth.
Liaobeicheng
In the middle of the busy street, the bell tower chirped five times in a proclamation, and the cross-shaped spire penetrated the setting sun. With its reference, you could just see the sunset slowly sinking. At the end of spring, the pear flowers on the Central Street are like clusters of clean clouds. When the wind blows, their petals roll down to the ground. They are rolled in and crushed by the trams that are constantly shuttled, and a layer of fragrant flower mud accumulates on the rails. People passing by can't help but take a few deep breaths. The vendors who were squatting under the trees to sell sorbets in the winter have disappeared, because the sorbets will lose their shape after letting the sun shine for a while.
However, the students in Liaobei Middle School are all indispensable. Liaobei ice cream is known as the colder the more you eat. Since the students with strong blood are not afraid of the cold in winter, when the weather is warm, they are even more greedy after school. Run out to find sorbet to eat.
Going out of the school gate and going around the commercial city, you can see the new-style freezer. After opening it, you can find all kinds of sorbets in various flavors. In addition, it takes less than 20 minutes to buy a sorbet in the north and walk out of Central Street. However, many students only returned to the dormitory in the middle of the night—they went out in the name of buying sorbet. If they were caught by the night patrol teacher, the responsibility would be placed on the sorbet.
At the entrance of the alley not far from the school gate, there is a handsome young man who is selling a basket of wild ginseng. These are all ginseng seeds that are not of good quality. Although the rich people make wine a little unsightly, ordinary people buy it back and boil it. Water is also good for soup, and the price on the street is much cheaper than that in drugstores.
Originally, young students didn't care about these things, but because of the young man's outstanding appearance, many young students were willing to stay here.
"Hey, give me another pound." A tall and fashionable girl with curly hair walked up to him.
Lu Jingyun stood up and looked at her, then seriously said, "Didn't you just come to buy it yesterday? This thing is small in amount, and it's too much for your body to take."
"It's so stupid, I don't want any business that is delivered to the door." The girls all laughed, and another girl with short hair who dared to speak up jokingly said, "Little guy, can you drink this thing in those days?"
"Which days?" Lu Jingyun frowned, watching them leaning back and forth and laughing together, knowing that they were making fun of themselves, so he ignored them and squatted down to clean the dirt on his beard.
At this time, the girls "hula" like birds and floated away with laughter.
"Isn't that Jiang Mian?" "Where is he going?"
When Lu Jingyun heard the name vaguely, his heart jumped wildly. He quickly stood up and looked over. Sure enough, he saw the gentle and gentle boy, wearing a neat black school uniform and carrying a Longjing iron box in his hand. , the light behind him was orange-red, but the face under the brim was still pale, and the more his eyes were painted, the eyebrows were like a misty moon, Lu Jingyun thought of the reason, and he was so distressed that he was about to cry, but he was reluctant to look away.
Xu Jiangmian was answering the girls' questions with a smile. In the past, when everyone asked him to come out for a drink and dinner, he always refused. Today, at his father's request, he went to an uncle's banquet, so he brought a gift to leave the school, and he was chatting and laughing. He seemed to have a feeling, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Lu Jingyun staring at him in a daze. In an instant, his spiritual eyes were filled with the wetness like a mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River.
Seeing him, Lu Jingyun walked straight over, ignoring everyone's astonished eyes. The wild ginseng he was holding in his hand was so flustered that he broke it off. He didn't know how to say hello, but he blurted out an intimate "Mian'er". His face flushed red.
"You still know the young master of the Xu family?" The girls were all surprised, and turned to Xu Jiangmian and said, "The little guy has been selling ginseng here for several days, and I didn't expect to meet you."
"He's my best friend." Xu Jiangmian smiled softly, and when he met the man's gaze, he lowered his eyes shyly, refraining from all emotions.
